Rise of the Plants

Chapter 28 Purple Gemstone Necklace

"No, it's dangerous." Chi Nan was shocked, but it was a pity that his reaction was not that fast.

A black shadow flashed out, and an animal that looked like a big lynx ran out of nowhere. It was all yellow and looked like a little tiger, but its speed was much faster than that of a tiger.

It's just that this animal is not that similar to a tiger, there are some differences. Seeing this animal rushing out, its target was a one-legged horse. Chi Nan seemed to have seen that the horse was going to die here.

But the next moment, a human figure instantly inserted between the big lynx and the horse. Chi Nan was surprised to find that the person who came was actually Sophila's guard. At this time, the aura of the guard was extraordinary. There was a faint white light on the long sword, which drew an arc like a crescent moon in the air, and instantly passed by the big lynx.

The next moment, the big lynx split into two halves in the middle, and blood spilled all over the floor. "It's a mountain lynx, a very common animal, not a monster. Fortunately, this thing is only close to a monster, otherwise it would be really difficult to deal with."

The guard knelt down to take a look, a glint flashing in his eyes. "There are no powerful beasts in the mountains and forests here. With this lynx here, this area should be its territory. Let's camp here and rest."

Seeing that the sky has darkened, it is even more dangerous to travel in a place like this at night.

Chi Nan thought for a while, then nodded in agreement: "Then let's rest here. This lynx will give everyone extra food." On the way, the refugee gate at the back ate twice more, each time with very little. With the food supplement, the refugees' physical strength recovered fairly quickly. At least no refugee was left behind along the way.

It's just that none of these refugees dared to talk to him. Seeing that he was always in unusual awe, Chi Nan was a little depressed. It's useless to say it, the hierarchy in this world is too strict.

Sophila did not object and directly agreed. Chi Nan was a little apologetic: "We don't have a tent here, so we can only rest in the open air. I really feel wronged to you."

Sophila waved her hand: "It doesn't matter. My guard will make a simple tent for us." Sure enough, the guard had disappeared at this time. The previous guard jumped into the jungle and turned out to be looking for something.

The big lynx was left to the bald dad and a leg to handle. The two of them were very experienced. The fire was set directly on the blood released by the big lynx. This was to prevent the smell of blood from attracting other beasts.

"Your guard must have used Dou Qi before. He is already a formal professional at the black iron level. Why are you still trapped by those bandits?" Chi Nan knows how strong this formal professional is. On the battlefield, the two knights Keladi and Kai'an were able to easily kill the wild orcs.

Sophila hugged Sawyer down and gently smoothed her hair: "If we encounter these bandits at the beginning, although it will be a little troublesome, there will be no problem in protecting us and leaving. But we have encountered wild orcs before. In order to To protect us, the guards fought with the wild orcs once, and in the end only one guard protected us and left, but he was also injured."

Sophila looked at Chi Nan with a strange look on her face: "You don't think that the Black Iron Knight can really ignore the number of people, do you?"

"Isn't it?" With that kind of fighting power, just eighty bandits are nothing.

Sawyer snorted softly: "If the Black Iron Knight is so useful, then what else does the army need?"

Sophila knocked her brother on the head: "Don't talk nonsense, the black iron knights are indeed very powerful, but their fighting spirit is too little. If they can't kill a few enemies, their fighting spirit will be exhausted. Black iron professionals without fighting spirit will , no better than ordinary people."

So that's what happened, Chi Nan just remembered, this is a real world, their power cannot be used without limit, at least there is no medicine that can restore fighting spirit. Even if there is, I believe the price is exaggerated. He had been injured before, so no wonder he was trapped by so many low-life bandits.

It is already difficult to protect two injured guards. It is simply impossible to protect two people and rush out. Later, the guards had nothing to eat, they were so hungry, and they had no strength.

Suddenly, Sophila moved around her neck and took off a necklace. At the bottom of the necklace is a huge purple gemstone, crystal clear, and it is extraordinary at first glance. Behind the gemstone is a gold-like metal inlaid base. There seems to be some pattern behind it, and the whole pendant looks extremely gorgeous.

"Here you go." In Sawyer's surprised eyes, Sophila handed the pendant to Chi Nan.

A flash of strangeness flashed in Chi Nan's eyes: "What is this? Is it a reward for me?" Chi Nan did not answer.

"You can understand it this way, but this is not given to you, it is just a token. If you have any trouble in the future, you can bring this necklace to me. I can help you solve ordinary troubles. Just ask someone above the count All the nobles know it, but you have to remember, don’t let anyone see this necklace unless necessary, otherwise you will be in big trouble.”

Chi Nan then brought the necklace over and looked at it in his hand. The necklace was even more gorgeous. The purple gemstone has no impurities in its entire body. Under the afterglow of the setting sun, the inside of the gemstone can be clearly seen.

The inside of this transparent gemstone looks like artificial glass, pure and flawless. But Chi Nan knows that there should be no such thing as glass in this world, at least he hasn't seen it yet.

This is a purely natural gemstone, with such a big and gorgeous color. If it were placed on the earth, I would not have to worry about it in this life. It's a pity that once you get here, you can't go back.

"Okay, then I'll accept it. If anything happens in the future, you have to admit it." Chi Nan said while turning the pendant over. Behind it, there was indeed a pattern, something that looked like a legendary griffon.

What Chi Nan didn't notice was that when he turned the pendant over, Sophila's eyes suddenly became very nervous. But when she discovered that Chi Nan had no strange behavior, Sophira relaxed. "Don't worry, if you take my token with you, I will never deny it. Put it away quickly and don't let anyone see it."

Chi Nan quickly put the pendant around his neck and hid it with his clothes. Only then did I realize that the guard was back. They are obviously his bodyguards, do they need to be so cautious? These nobles are really strange, Chi Nan cursed in his heart.
