The village chief tremblingly controlled the sleeping wolf, and the other tribesmen also stood up.
"Lord Roland, thank you and Lady Saint for your help. We will accept the food."
"No hurry, Torina just wanted to see you and will teach you a prayer later."
Roland smiled as he walked deeper into the village with Torina. When they reached the bridge, the ground was finally free of mud.
He looked at the people around him, trying to find someone he knew. Unfortunately, with only the little impression he had from many years ago, he couldn't find the right person. He decided to ask later.
Listening to the village chief's introduction to the village, everyone around breathed a sigh of relief. Some went to move food, some followed them, and there was a little girl looking at Tolina, who was younger than her.
For now, the fact that Torina and Michaela are the same person is still a secret, and the influence of the two people has always been separate. Many Platinum Sons only heard from Torina that Michaela and Godwin were willing to take them in, but they didn't know the relationship between them, but they still only believed in Torina.
As they went deeper into the village, Tolina's mood gradually calmed down. She felt that she could barely survive, but there was not much food. These foods were an emergency.
As he went deeper into the village, Roland felt that this place was no different from the game, just as run-down and shabby.
The surrounding wooden houses were all built with rough wooden boards. The thatched roofs had long been torn and incomplete. A few crumbling grass leaves rustled in the wind, revealing an indescribable desolation and loneliness.
The doors and windows of the wooden house have been deformed and twisted, and dark and dim light reveals through the mottled gaps between the wooden boards, reflecting the simple and dilapidated scene inside.
The corners of the walls were covered with spider webs, and the damp air mixed with a faint smell of mold made people feel depressed and dull.
The old village chief was obviously in a difficult situation. He wanted to invite the two people to sit in the wooden house, but Roland refused.
"I think that square is better."
Roland remembered that here he could summon a female warrior to fight a small monster.
If he hadn't looked up the guide for the mission, he wouldn't have found this place. By the time he got there, it was already in the late stage and he would have been killed in just a few hits.
The old village chief quickly asked people to come and move a chair and kept wiping it.
"Sorry, sorry, I'm so sorry, our conditions are so poor, this is the only way."
"It's okay. I want to ask, how many people can learn to pray?"
This is the issue that Tolina is most concerned about, as it directly affects the grain production of Platinum Village.
The old village chief's face turned sad, "Very few, only a few people, but fortunately they are all very young.
What do you need them for?"
"I...I made a prayer that requires very low prayer talent and very low magic power, but it can make mushrooms grow quickly in the right place."
Tolina's words caused a burst of exclamations, and the old village chief also became excited and asked with concern.
“What is the specific output?”
"About that. One hundred standard units of magic power produce enough mushrooms to feed more than a dozen people."
Torina spoke to everyone.
This output is enough to keep the village from starving, and the people around are all happy.
He called several girls who were gifted in prayer and asked them to learn to pray from Torina.
Taking advantage of this time, Roland asked him about his acquaintances. In order not to disturb their studies, the two of them temporarily moved away from the campfire.
They walked towards a more remote place, and Roland took the initiative to ask him.
"Do you know a Platinum Child named Letina? She should be a little girl, or a child."
"Do you know her?" The old village chief looked at Roland carefully. Even though they knew he was Saint Tolina's brother, they were still unwilling to trust a stranger.
Years of persecution have made them no longer trust anyone.
In particular, the scene when he first appeared, flapping his wings and with the smell of death all around him, he looked like someone who was not someone to be trifled with.
"...Sort of."
Roland nodded. When he was playing as Ah Tui in the game, he occasionally used the ashes to skip classes.
They continued to walk outside. Not everyone was in the small square as it couldn't accommodate too many people and many people had their own things to do.
The blond young man continued, "It's just that I know her. She probably doesn't know me."
"......"
The old village chief's sleeping wolf looked equally old, and his steps were steady and slow.
He seemed to be looking at something, and finally nodded, "I can take you there, sir."
Probably out of trust in Torina.
Roland alone would not be able to make this decision.
Chapter 136 Letina
Different from all other ashes, Letina was an NPC who could communicate during her lifetime, and she volunteered to become Atai's ashes.
Even though he didn't use it often, Roland still had a deep impression of her, especially when she gave him a piece of colorless ancient dragon rock in the end.
The old village chief took Roland to a wooden house, which was in line with the surrounding style.
In such a damp and dark place, the wooden house will have a musty smell even if it is cleaned.
"This is Letina's home." He stopped at the door and knocked.
Not long after, a girl came out to open the door. She was about eleven or twelve years old and looked about the same age as Torina.
Roland was startled, but also felt it was normal. Now that he was alive, it was normal for many people not to grow up.
At this point in time, he should have been assassinated by the black knife assassin, as the Broken War was in a state of back and forth.
He truly felt that he had changed the future. Just by changing his own death, he completely changed the future of the border area.
When the little girl came out, she saw Roland at first sight, probably because his golden hair was too dazzling.
"You are the uncle from before!"
"......" Roland was immediately blocked by her and comforted himself in his heart.
It doesn’t matter. It’s normal and reasonable to be called uncle by children.
He patted the little girl's head and said, "Are you Letina?"
"Yes!"
The child hasn't experienced much yet, and his impression of Roland is still that of a good man who delivers food.
She greeted the village chief again. Looking at the little girl in front of him, Roland no longer had any intention of communicating.
But he couldn't remember the name of the old man who gave him the talisman, and he knew very well that this time, Sir Baizhi would not come to massacre Platinum Village.
Because the fundamental interests are gone.
Sir Baizhi sent people to massacre the Platinum Village just for the sake of the talisman and the whereabouts of Marlennia.
Now, without the Shattering War, the Faded One will not become king. Marlennia is in the royal city. Do you, Sir Baizhi, dare to come?
Roland said goodbye to Letina, and when he and the village chief returned to the square, the prayer class had ended.
The blonde loli was sitting around the campfire, chatting and laughing with a few other girls, and Sleeping Wolf was accompanying them.
Seeing Roland and the old village chief coming back, the blonde's eyes lit up and she waved to him.
"elder brother!"
"How's the teaching going?" Roland sat next to her. Since Miss Dixi came, she has been invisible and ignored by others.
At this moment, she was standing opposite him, helping him protect Torina.
The blonde girl smiled and answered him, "It's very simple after all. You can learn it after being taught."
"That's good."
After Roland came back, the scene became a little serious. He immediately realized that it was not because of him, but because of the old village chief sitting on the back of the sleeping wolf.
He simply sat next to Torina without saying a word and listened to their conversation.
A Platinum Son girl couldn't help but ask: "Saint Lady, if we need to use prayer, but we pray to the Goddess of Corruption, will she respond to us?"
"Yes, I heard that she is from the Golden Tree. Will she really respond to us?"
"His Highness Godwin and His Highness Michaela are willing to accept us. Will His Highness Marennia do the same?"
"After all, why did the Saint Lady confirm that His Highness Godwin would accept us?"
"I heard that His Highness Godwin was born a long time ago. He is different from the basic principles of the current Golden Law. He believes in the more primitive Golden Tree Law, so he is more tolerant."
"........."
The girls were talking, which attracted the old man's attention, and he shouted at them.
“An Jing, the Saint Lady has always been promoting His Highness Godwin and His Highness Michaela, and we are willing to believe her.
It would be great if one of these two princes is willing to accept us.
Don't question the Saint!"
At his voice, the others gradually fell silent, and Tolina said nothing.
After a period of practice, almost everyone was able to use the prayer. The flames were surrounded by scarlet mist, and mushrooms had grown on several damp wooden stakes. The girls all showed happy expressions.
When the young sons of platinum heard the news, they were all ecstatic, and the old men were in tears, as if they had already seen the day when they could live and work in peace and contentment.
Many of the Platinum Sons knelt down on the spot, leaving Torina in a dilemma, and she kept pulling at his clothes.
Roland had no choice but to speak for her, to the Sons of Platinum inside and outside the square.
He has experienced this kind of situation many times.
However, in the past it was always on the towering city walls, but today it is in the center of a square in a small village.
Torina stood in front of him, with his support on her shoulders, holding her body upright.
Roland didn't like that kind of leadership style. He stood in the center of the crowd, speaking in a voice that was neither too fast nor too slow, neither too loud nor too soft, and rejected the old village chief's speech decisively.
“My sister doesn’t like crowded places, so today I just came to deliver food and teach prayers, and I’ve already accomplished everything.
We will be leaving soon, so don't bother to accommodate us here."
"Hey...why don't you stay a little longer? It would be nice to have lunch here."
The old village chief stared at Tolina with reluctance in his eyes, tears welling up in the corners of his eyes.
She was the only person willing to redeem them, and was the saint in the eyes of all races that were not accepted by the Golden Tree.
The blonde loli raised her lips slightly and spoke in a gentle tone.
"We will meet again in our dreams."
She turned her head and looked at the group of girls again, "We agreed to meet in my dream tonight."
Although this was their first meeting in reality, they had already met each other countless times in their dreams.
Roland and she naturally wouldn't stay. There wasn't much food to begin with, so how could they possibly take up their lunch?
Tolina waved to them and was picked up by Roland, with her shoes facing outwards to avoid dirtying her clothes.
The way back was fast. Miss Dixi and I ran all the way, and it took less than 20 minutes for the three of us to return to the magic academy.
After landing in the courtyard, Di Xi had been hiding his figure, and Tolina looked a little lost.
She looked at Roland and asked, "Brother, do you think the Platinum Son's leg can be cured?"
This question really stumped Roland.
He had almost no knowledge of magical life and had only been in the magic academy for two years. It was already a great talent for him to become an all-rounder in magic.
This is something that even Se Lian can't do.
But his foundation is still too weak and he has not entered many fields.
Magical beings, golems, magic props...
He basically didn't learn anything, and in the game, who cares whether the Platinum Son's leg can be cured?
Ultimately, his answers could only be vague.
"Maybe there will be a solution to those two cities underground. The legs of the second generation Platinum Son are very useful. There must be a solution."
"Yeah, I think so too."
Her eyes began to sparkle, like a rainbow after the rain, bright and full of hope.
