【Thousand Fantasy】Snake and Rabbit in the Same Cage

· Warm Bunny, four for one yuan, hehe!

Chiku was at a loss.

He admitted that it was indeed interesting to tease Huan before.He was born on Shishen Island adjacent to the human territory, where the magic power of the orcs living there comes from the holy lake in the center of the island - the two magic stones given to him are minerals that can be found everywhere at the bottom of the lake.They don't need to hunt, they just need to bathe to keep their mana full.

Therefore, before Qiankong came here, he had never seen any ordinary orcs.

He knew that ordinary orcs would instinctively fear them. There had never been any killings on Shishen Island, but there were still no ordinary orcs willing to live here.

The rabbit I met for the first time always looked wary. After accepting the Philosopher's Stone, he reluctantly agreed to let himself stay overnight.At first, Qiankong thought that he really only likes money.I don't want this little rabbit, who should have struggled in the human world, to shoulder the lives of so many orphans.

Frivolity and greed are just a disguise for him to protect himself. Thinking about it this way, he can't help but feel a little cute.So I couldn't help but push forward and tease him a bit.

But Qian Kong didn't expect that he would react so strongly.

"Sorry, I didn't mean it." He looked down at his hands, thinking that he hadn't used much force just now.

And Huan at the end of the bed managed to calm down and realized that he lost his composure just now.He lay down curled up at the end of the bed: "It's not your fault, it's because I reacted too much. But, I'll sleep on this end."

As Huan said, he pulled the quilt to cover himself symbolically.He really didn't want to lie in the same bed with a snake, that might have nightmares.He took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down.But he found that he was sleeping on the other side, and a snake tail that was exposed because the quilt was not long enough was right in front of him.He trembled and turned over, keeping the tail out of his sight.

She said she slept in the same room with him to monitor him, but in the end she didn't even have the courage to look at him directly.Gen felt an unprecedented sense of frustration.He couldn't help but think of the time when he was thrown to the ground by a wolf when he was a child. Although he now has the magic power to escape, he is still the same as then, unable to move when he is afraid.

He sighed in his heart, the rabbit is really a sad existence.

"Won't warm-blooded animals be afraid of the cold?" The sightless snake couldn't help asking again.He pulled the quilt with his tail to completely cover the rabbit, and kindly tucked the corners of the quilt.When the tail had to touch the rabbit's body in order to draw it back, the cold-blooded animal, which is very sensitive to temperature, felt the rabbit's body temperature rise suddenly.

The moment he was pinned down by the tail, the instinctive fear made Gen hold his breath.But when the cold, scaly tail rubbed against his thin inner lining, the tingling sensation accompanied by fear turned into a weird feeling that made him lose his mind.

After the tail helped him cover the quilt, he immediately retracted.But the feeling it left on Gen continued to spread.The rabbit covered his mouth, so he didn't make a sound.

Too bad he seems to be in heat with the snake.Even if a rabbit is prone to estrus, it would be too strange to have a desire for a predator, right?Is it because Senku is rarely gentle with his predators?He wanted to expel the strange thoughts from his mind, but his body was getting hotter and hotter.While thinking wildly, he heard Qian Kong's voice: "Hey, what's wrong with you?"

Fake sleep, he thought.

Rabbit closed his eyes, not answering Chiku's question.

"Are you asleep?" Qian Kong asked softly.He felt strange, the rabbit was obviously very wary of him, how could he fall asleep so quickly.However, he was also really sleepy. During the past few days sleeping on the street, in order not to be discovered by humans, he had to maintain his mimicry even when he was resting, and he was always in a state of exhaustion.

Now not only can it return to its original shape, but it is still very warm in the quilt.You must know that snakes like warm places, Huan's body temperature warms the bed, making him very comfortable.He couldn't help but want to get closer to the source of this warmth.

"Hey, Huan." Qian Kong called out, "Teacher Huan?"

Still no response.

He was sure that the rabbit was really asleep, so he quietly stretched his tail to a warmer place, and when he was about to touch the material of Huan's body, he stopped, thinking that he would be too rude if he went any further.

But, is he asleep?Just remove the tail before he wakes up and he won't be spotted.

Qian Kong, who was greedy for warmth, thought so, and slowly wrapped the tip of his tail around the rabbit's calf.

Illusion that I temporarily lost the ability to think.

His exposed ankle was entangled by the snake's tail, and the tail, which was asking for warmth, seemed to want to get into the trouser leg, but the owner of the tail held back.But just such skin-to-skin contact already made his whole leg go limp.

What does Chiku mean?He thought wildly, was he afraid that he would run away?

Or is he thinking the same thing as himself now?

No, it's impossible.

The heat of estrus made Geng almost cry, but he didn't dare to move because his feet were entangled.He didn't know how long he had spent in the torment, but he felt that the tail on his calf had lost its strength.He made sure that Qiankong was asleep, so he took his legs out of the snake tail that had been warmed by his own body.

Go out and fix it yourself, he thought.

The next day Qian Kong woke up very early, and when he opened his eyes, he realized that there was nothing around him.The tail was still on Gen's side, but it couldn't feel the warmth.He sat up and called out, "Teacher Huan?"

The rabbit's listless voice came from under the bed: "You're awake..."

Qianku looked under the bed and found Gen wrapped in his coat, lying on the blanket from yesterday.

"Did I... crush you?" Qian Kong suddenly felt guilty.Because he slept so comfortably, he didn't even know when Huan got out of bed.The rabbit obviously didn't sleep well, his ears drooped, and his face was full of tiredness.After muttering vaguely, he got up from the ground.

After tormenting for most of the night with the question of why Senku wanted to entangle him, Gen came to the conclusion that it was probably a habit of snakes.And Qiankong's reaction when he got up in the morning convinced him of this even more.

It's not because I'm afraid of running away, or I want to eat myself, and it's not...

Just get used to it.

Damn habit.

"I'll take you to the library when I go to help the children get dressed." Huan yawned and said, "We've agreed that once you find out what the magic circle is, don't pester me anymore."

"Don't worry, I keep my word." Qian Kong smiled and said, "Next time I come again, I will bring you special products."

"That's about the same." Huan inexplicably felt that he had suffered a loss, and he couldn't tell where the loss was.He glanced at Qian Kong's tail, and found that after the excessive fright last night, it was not so scary to see it again.At least, it's not to the extent that you don't even dare to look at it: "Put the tail away, and scare the child for a while."

Qian Kong obeyed obediently.

The Central Library is not far from the Orc Orphanage, and it is a place for wizards to study.The general reading area is open to the public, while the magic book area requires a badge issued by the empire to wizards to enter.

"It's easy, I'm the best at deceiving people." The rabbit snapped his fingers, and he and Qian Kong put on the wizard's cloak.Both had badges pinned to their chests, and they looked flawless.

However, Qian Kong knew that this was also an illusion.Including the disappearance of Gen's ears, and the half-black and half-white hair turning into a pure black hair color that is completely human-like, all of this is his illusion.

Although ordinary orcs have magic power, they are at best superior to humans without magic power.Most of their control over the elements is single and weak, at most they can blow a breeze or let the seeds germinate quickly.

The illusion that can completely control the five senses of the caster like phantom is a very difficult and precise magic.Moreover, no matter how many people there are, as long as they enter the range of his spell, they cannot escape.According to common sense, a rabbit cannot reach this level.

"You are quite talented in magic." Qian Kong said casually: "However, don't wizards have a high status here? Will it be too ostentatious for us to walk on the road like this?"

"You'll know when you get out." Huan smiled.

Once on the main road, Chiku understood Gen's meaning.He originally thought that in the empire, wizards would always attract attention no matter where they went, like nobles. In fact, people passing by consciously or unconsciously avoided getting too close to them.

Just to catch a glimpse of their silhouettes makes you bow your head.Accidentally make eye contact, and there will be a little panic in the eyes.Some people will even avoid them from a distance, as if they regard them as disaster stars.

"The peace of this country depends on the power of wizards, so the king is very indulgent to them." Huan said very vaguely, but Qiankong can probably guess how these people who even the king dare not easily offend usually do. treatment of civilians.Huan looked at the man who hurriedly bypassed not far away, and said softly: "It is not easy for human beings to control magic. A wizard is worth more than ordinary people in a city. In this land, the only law they need to obey , is to be loyal to the king."

Qian Kong's eyes sank, as if remembering something unpleasant.But before he could continue to think about it, he saw a group of people surrounded by an unopened bakery in front of him.The men formed a semicircle with the walls of the bakery, discussing in whispers what was on the ground.The moment he saw the wall, Chiku was stunned.

It was a huge magic circle painted with blood, most of it was blocked by the crowd, and only the top could be seen.But Senku was all too familiar with this figure—the one he drew for Gen.

"Teacher Huan." He called the rabbit who lived in front and led the way quickly, and the latter turned around: "What's wrong?"

"Can you help me get these people away?"

Huan followed Qian Kong's line of sight, and when he saw the familiar pattern, he immediately understood what he meant.As a result, the sky was covered with dark clouds for a moment, and after the rolling thunder, the torrential rain poured down, making a crisp sound on the stone road.

The spectators hurriedly covered their heads and ran around, and soon there were only these two wizards standing still in the rain.

After the crowd dispersed, the complete magic circle on the wall was exposed.Under the magic circle, there was a person half-lying against the wall.With a pair of horns growing on his drooping head, he is a blue sheep.

"I know him!" Huan said in surprise, "It's the baker hired by this shop."

He hurried forward to check, and noticed something was wrong as soon as he got close.The blue sheep in front of him has completely lost the breath of life.Huan squatted down, opened his eyelids, and saw that the pupils inside were cloudy, it seemed that he had been dead for a long time.

"It was the magic power that was seized and died." Qiankong guessed that the blue sheep was hopeless the moment he saw the magic circle: "I have a friend who also fell into this kind of magic. However, She was discovered early, she just lost her magic powers and was still alive."

Liuli is the witch on Shikami Island, and also the most powerful orc on the island.On the day she was discovered, there was a slight shock in the enchantment arranged outside the island to resist human invasion.The guards on the island sensed that something was wrong, and when they went to help, they only saw the witch who had collapsed in a huge magic circle and her magic power had completely collapsed, and the murderer was nowhere to be found.

Qiankong guessed that someone was trying to invade Shikami Island, and after touching the enchantment that Ruri personally set up, he fought against Ruri who went to check alone.

As for why he didn't go to the island after defeating Liuli, Qiankong couldn't figure it out.

"You came here just to find the murderer?"

Qian Kong nodded and said: "Yes. She was attacked near the border of the empire. We brought her back to the holy lake on the island, where we can heal her wounds and replenish her magic power, but there is no way to wake her up."

"Only by finding the wizard who cast the spell can we know how to dispel the spell." Huan stood up and said, "Let me help you."

Qian Kong was a little surprised, before he could ask, Huan continued: "Here, human beings will not interfere with the death of the orcs. I have a bad feeling, since this kind of thing happened twice, there will definitely be a third Second-rate."

"Are you worried about those kids?" Senku asked.

"Besides the children, there are many orcs who grew up with me in this city." Huan glanced at the dead baker and lowered his eyes: "No, it's not just people I know. It's not easy for us to survive here , if the orcs are indifferent to the death of the orcs, who else will help us."

He was not very familiar with the baker.It's just that sometimes when he brought his children to buy breakfast, the baker would always give him small snacks for free.He was seen by the human store manager several times and scolded him.But the second time he came, he would still do the same.When paying the bill, Huan would have a chat with him, and he said, I know you, it is not easy for you to support that orphanage by yourself.

Now that face that is always cheerful even when scolded, only the expression of pain when dying is left.The hallucination felt that the nose was sore.He wiped the corners of his eyes with his sleeves, and when he looked up, he saw Qianku looking at him.Those red pupils that concealed the characteristics of a snake were rare and gentle, and then the owner of the eyes patted him on the shoulder.

Gen still couldn't get used to physical contact with the opponent.Both fear, but also feel hot where touched.But he thought he shouldn't refuse this kind touch at this time.So he stood still and waited for Qianku to take his hand away.

"Look, you're so nervous when I touch you. I don't know where the courage comes from to fight against a wizard that I can't even deal with." Qian Kong smiled, and when he saw the depressed expression on the rabbit's face, he immediately The smoke dissipated, and an unconvinced arc was drawn at the corner of his mouth: "Don't underestimate me, without me, you can't move a single step in the imperial capital."

"Yes, then please, Teacher Huan."
