Chapter 218 Hunting Giants and the Rescued Princess
Faced with Wayne’s strength, King Bravel hesitated, but did not refuse. After all, favors can be big or small. For old fritters like them, it’s a big deal. When you really can't agree to something, you will definitely use various excuses to shirk it.
Not only that, in order to ensure the safety of his daughter, Wayne, who has a mysterious background, is just an insurance policy.
As a king, Bravel quickly ordered his subordinates to form a rescue team, composed of the best climbing soldiers in the royal guard. Each one of them is a brave warrior, willing to sacrifice his life for the princess.
And just like the original work, after hearing the information about the giant family described by Wayne, the villain Count Roderick subconsciously touched Eric's Magic Crown hidden in his pocket, feeling ecstatic in his heart.
Immediately, he hypocritically and loudly asked the king to join the rescue team and save his fiancée.
He was originally the husband-in-law of the princess selected by King Bravel. Of course, such a noble behavior was not rejected. The protagonist of the movie, Jack, a poor boy who found that his magic beans were lost, for the adventure dream in his heart, and that The idea of rescuing the princess is out of reach, and he also asks to join the team to rescue the princess.
And while these ordinary people are working hard for their dreams, our Master Wayne has already driven a magic flying carpet to a place about one thousand meters above the ground.
Unfortunately, as he expected, when the magic carpet flew to a certain height, no matter how Wayne controlled it, it could no longer continue to fly upward. Forcibly controlling it would affect its flight stability and might even cause the flight to fail. The spell fails and unnecessary danger occurs.
With no other choice, Wayne could only choose to stop at the location of the magic vines, and then, like the rescue team below, use his climbing skills to climb up the magic vines.
But, demon hunters are not ordinary people. Mr. Wayne’s physical fitness is more than five times that of ordinary soldiers. Coupled with his skills and physical strength bonus, it is like those in the movie that take two days to climb the magic vines. At the top, the rescue team that climbed to the giant's territory was different.
It only took him six hours to climb about 8,000 meters and reach Gantuowa, the territory of the giants.
At such a height, it has passed through the cumulonimbus clouds in this world and reached the height of the troposphere. Therefore, unlike many people's imagination, the entire giant continent floating in the sky is a beautiful and windy scene.
At the top of the magic vines, in the dilapidated wooden house that was brought to the giant's territory by the vines, Princess Elizabeth had left, and there was no one in the wooden house.
Seeing this scene, Wayne couldn't help but sigh in his heart. She was really a restless princess. Running away from home and escaping from marriage were commonplace. But I have to say that this princess was still a courageous girl.
Of course, it's also possible that she was hungry, because judging by the time, the princess probably hadn't eaten for a day.
As an excellent witcher, Wayne's investigative ability is still very strong, and may not be as good as Geralt's, but he quickly found her departure based on the footprints on the ground and the clues left by the princess. route.
Although rescuing the princess is just something he wants to do casually, the reward of a master-level mission is still very delicious.
The magic vines connected a skull-shaped drainage channel, located at the very edge of the Giant Continent. Looking at this uncanny sculpture, Wayne suspected that there might have been a higher level of power in this world in the past, maybe some kind of God in the story. Or angels also exist.
But it may be that because the magic power faded and entered the Age of Ending Law, they could no longer survive and left here. Otherwise, it would be difficult to explain such a huge continent floating in the sky and these sculptures that do not look like they were carved by humans.
With this thought in his mind, Wayne quickly chased the princess in the direction she left.
After all, there are still a lot of giants on this continent. Although the princess did not encounter any danger in the movie, she might in reality.
Wayne moved very quickly, following the traces left by the princess, across a plain, along the canyon, and into the forest.
About an hour later, he saw from a distance a slim girl wearing a black cotton coat and long riding boots, with beautiful long chestnut hair, running in a panic.
Behind the girl, a huge humanoid creature with iron armor on its chest, rough skin, about eight meters tall, and fluffy hair was chasing her leisurely.
Princess Elizabeth was obviously frightened and ran for help while the giant behind her had a playful smile on her face, obviously enjoying chasing humans like this.
Seeing this, Wayne swung his right hand towards the space bracelet, and a huge bow and arrow more than one meter long appeared in his right hand. The entire bow and arrow was made of a mixture of metal and special wooden materials. It looked like Gorgeous and domineering, it was the dragon chanting bow given to him by the female elf Toluvel, which was carefully crafted by a master-level elf bow maker.
After holding the Dragon Song Bow tightly, Wayne took out a huge black arrow made entirely of steel and about one meter in length from the space bracelet.
He took a gentle breath, aimed at the running giant about two hundred meters away, drew his bow and shot an arrow, all in one breath.
The huge dragon chanting bow was pulled into a full moon, and with a loud bang, the metal arrow he shot turned into a stream of light, instantly leaping over a distance of more than two hundred meters, and shot through the man who was standing there. The back of the running giant's neck is extremely precise.
As if a hole had been poked in a water bag filled with water, the running giant let out a howl, and a large amount of blood spurted out from the wound torn open by the arrow.
The unknown giant covered his throat with both hands and looked in the direction of Wayne with some disbelief. Due to the inertia of running, he staggered a few steps and fell heavily to the ground. He could only open his eyes wide. He closed his eyes and lay on the ground, making a desperate struggle.
The princess who was running away subconsciously looked behind her when she heard the sound of the giant thing hitting the ground behind her. When she saw the giant behind her who had a huge bow and arrow pierced through her throat, she couldn't help but cover her mouth. There was a cry of surprise.
Soon, following the direction behind the giant, the princess saw the handsome demon hunter flying towards her on the magic flying carpet, holding a huge and gorgeous dragon bow, wearing armor and looking handsome.
No matter how surprised the princess was, after Wayne came to her side, he nodded slightly to the princess, and then said in a calm voice: "Her Royal
Highness Princess Elizabeth, my name is Wayne, and I have been entrusted by your father to come to rescue you. ."
"Next, just act with me, I will protect your safety."
After saying that, Wayne looked back at the completely dead giant, then stretched out his hand to Princess Elizabeth, gesturing for her to board the Magic flying carpet.
The princess hesitated for a few seconds, also looked at the horrifyingly dead giant, then stretched out her hand to hold Wayne, and with his help stood on the magic flying carpet.
Compared with the dangerous environment around her, she obviously had more faith in the handsome human with special abilities in front of her. After climbing onto the magic carpet, Elizabeth stood behind Wayne under his instructions. When the magic carpet slowly rose away from the ground, the princess had subconsciously hugged Wayne's waist. The voice was filled with excitement and timidity as he asked:
"Mr. Wayne, are we going to fly back to the ground now?"
Wayne did not answer. He took back the Dragon Song Bow in his hand, and then controlled the magic flying carpet to fly. On the giant's corpse, he patted the black money bag on his waist, and the wealth elf Vivian immediately flew out of the money bag with a silver bell-like laughter.
She first circled around Wayne and Princess Elizabeth, then landed on Wayne's outstretched palm, stretched out, revealing her white and slender waist under her shirt, and then shouted with a smile: "
Wayne Master, call Vivian, do you have any orders?"
Wayne ignored Princess Elizabeth's bright and curious eyes behind him, pointed at the giant corpse below, and asked in a calm voice:
"This thing below , how much is it worth?”
Hearing this, Vivian looked at Princess Elizabeth behind Wayne with some curiosity, but the little guy was not nosy.
She immediately flapped her wings behind her and flew to the giant's corpse below. She didn't care at all that it was a corpse. She looked back and forth like a piece of cargo. She also waved her arms and released a similar identification technique. spell, and then quickly flew back to Wayne's palm, pouted and said:
"Mr. Wayne, this is just a very ordinary corpse of a humanoid creature. There is almost no magic power in the body, and the soul is very weak. The body is It doesn't have any nutrition, and can only be sold for the price of a wild boar, about five orens!" "
But the iron armor he is wearing, although the quality is quite bad, but the weight is not bad, and can be sold as iron metal, I After some estimation, it weighs about half a ton and can be sold for eighty oren."
The little guy is still very considerate. She knows very well that Wayne has always used oren, so every time he comes to sell garbage to her, , she will convert it into Oren, so that Wayne can accurately understand the value of this thing.
Wayne nodded lightly, forty-five Orens, not bad. The trophy acquisition center gave half the price. They were all selling junk anyway. He didn't have time to sell them in the market. There wasn't that much storage space. Easily exploited by profiteers.
Besides, the giants in this world cannot be compared with the giants in the wizarding world.
In the wizarding world, the materials from a giant's body can be sold for more than ten times because of the chaotic magic power contained in their body. If mutation-inducing substances can be found in their body, the price can be doubled.
"That's it, Vivian, I sold it to you, take it away quickly, it looks quite annoying."
Vivian chuckled, quickly flew to the giant, and recited a spell in her mouth , swipe your hands in the air a few times.
I don’t know how she did it. The giant’s body was immediately wrapped in a layer of magical fluorescence. In a few seconds, it disappeared without a trace, leaving only Wayne’s steel arrow that was slightly deformed after being thrown. , still left on the ground.
Seeing such a magical scene, Princess Elizabeth, who was standing behind Wayne, couldn't help it. Everything she saw in the past two days had overturned her ten years of knowledge, making this girl who was already full of The curious princess felt scared and worried, but also couldn't help being curious and excited.
She tilted her head, stretched out her little head from behind the tall Wayne, pointed at the cute-looking Vivian, and asked: "
Mr. Wayne, who is this cute, um, cute little girl?" Is that the elf in those stories?"
Wayne looked at each other and Princess Elizabeth, whose eyes were shining with curiosity, and said with a still very calm expression: "
Absolutely, but she is not an elf, but a wealth elf, and she is me. Assistant."
At this time, Vivian also completed her work. She flew in front of Princess Elizabeth, showed a very contagious and flattering smile, and said to Princess Elizabeth with a smile: "Yes,
this Miss, I am Master Wayne’s most loyal servant, Vivian, and Vivian likes Master Wayne the most.”
Listening to the little guy’s flattering words, Wayne knew that the little guy’s favorite was not him. , but the tip he gave, he patted the black money bag around his waist with some unbearability, and said helplessly to this shrewd little guy: "Come back,
Vivian, stop acting like a baby, there will be a big one soon." I will definitely give you a big reward when the time comes." After hearing this,
Vivian immediately flew to Wayne's head excitedly, kissed him hard on the face, and then said with a smile on her face. He flew back to the black money bag, and before entering, he said in a flattering manner:
"Mr. Wayne, please feel free to ask me if you have anything to do. Vivian loves you the most."
After Vivian returned to the money bag, Wayne Just as he was about to take off, he suddenly heard a gurgling sound from Princess Elizabeth's stomach behind him. He turned back to look at the princess. The princess was also quite embarrassed. She covered her stomach with a blushing face and lowered her head, not daring to look. Wayne's eyes.
As a princess of a kingdom, Elizabeth had never been hungry. Of course, she had no resistance to hunger, so she felt a little embarrassed about her performance.
Wayne felt funny in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face. When getting along with strangers, he preferred to be a facial paralysis, so that others could not see his inner thoughts from his expression.
Reaching out from his space bracelet, Wayne took out a piece of bread covered in butter and honey, and handed it to Princess Elizabeth. This was a dessert specially made by him to win the favor of girls. With his cooking skills, there was nothing wrong with it. Girls can say no.
Of course, Princess Elizabeth is no exception. It is even said that the girl who has been devastated by British food since she was a child was captured by the bread just by smelling it. She immediately picked up the bread with a look of happiness on her face. With an expression on his face, he started eating in small bites.
After she finished eating the bread with full concentration, she realized that Wayne in front of her was silently sizing her up.
Elizabeth shyly avoided Wayne's eyes, but when Wayne took out the second butter bun, the princess couldn't help but take it, unable to resist the temptation of this delicious food.
After the meal, Wayne did not return to the ground. Saving the princess was just a casual act. The purpose of his trip was to subdue the giant clan and use it for his own use.
Although Eric has not yet obtained the magic crown, it does not prevent him from passing on his terror to the giants living here.
Wayne felt that just relying on a magic crown might be able to temporarily control the behavior of the giants, but it would be impossible to conquer these alien races who looked down on humans from the bottom of their hearts. After all, almost all creatures are the same, fearing power but not virtue. .
Fear and irresistible power are the basis of domination.
If you want to completely control these giants, you must make them fear themselves from the bottom of their hearts and understand the consequences of disobeying management and disobeying orders.
As a result, a unique hunting operation began on this continent known as Gantua, the territory of giants.
With the magic flying carpet and dragon chanting bow, Wayne completely transformed into a killer flying in the sky. With exquisite archery skills and flexible aerial movements, Wayne began to hunt down all the giants in his sight.
