Chapter 896 The horse is flying!
Chapter 896 The horse is flying!
As soon as Shao Yun finished muttering, he saw a large number of locusts appearing in Vanessa's orchard.
Locusts were visible to the naked eye, crawling all over the remaining fruits and vegetables, as well as the crops in the fields.
Varesha looked at the locusts that appeared and shouted in horror: "What is this? Locusts? Could it be caused by the abyss too..."
"This is my orchard! Go away, you nasty guys!" As she said this, Varesa began to drive away the locusts in her destroyed orchard.
Although much of the Varesa family's orchard was destroyed by the lava, rocks and sudden appearance of abyss monsters during the eruption of the Turan volcano, some vegetables and fruits still survived.
Seeing that the few agricultural products were about to be eaten by locusts, Varesa was anxious and angry. She could only wave her arms around and inefficiently disperse the locusts.
At this time, Shao Yun took out the cloth bag containing thirty silver coins and shook it.
Along with the sound of silver coins, a horse neighed not far away.
The locusts that were wreaking havoc in Vanessa's house suddenly became confused and ran around in all directions when they heard the horse's neighing.
However, despite the chaos of these locusts, they had a common goal, which was to flee deep into the orchard.
Varesa watched the locusts suddenly flee in panic. She was simple-minded and did not think too much about why the locusts ran away. She began to be thankful that the locusts did not cause too much damage to her orchard.
"Huh~" Varesa let out a long sigh of relief, "Really, how could there be such a hateful thing as locusts in Teyvat."
At this time, Shao Yun walked to Vanessa's side. His expression was extremely calm, which formed a sharp contrast with Vanessa's ease.
Shao Yun looked at the direction where the locusts were flying away, and said thoughtfully: "This is not caused by the abyss, but it is more terrifying than the abyss..."
When Varessa heard what Shao Yun said, she immediately tilted her head, blinked her big eyes, and asked in a silly and cute way, "More terrifying than the abyss? What is that? Is it the angry Grandma Xitlari?"
Shao Yun looked at the innocent Vanessa in front of him and couldn't help but feel amused.
He really couldn't think of how to describe her fantasy.
"You are so naive...what is going on?"
Varessa stretched out her hand with a puzzled look on her face and gently touched the pair of curved horns on her head.
Then she answered seriously: "But when Grandma Cittala gets angry, it's really terrible!"
Shao Yun looked at Vanessa who looked serious, and said slowly: "Let's not talk about whether Miss Xitlari is really that scary for now. Miss Vanessa, I think it's better for you to avoid what's going to happen next."
When Varesha heard Shao Yun wanted her to leave, she asked suspiciously, "What's the matter? Why do you want me to leave?"
Shao Yun looked at the innocent Vanessa in front of him and explained patiently: "Because I am worried that the following scene will scare you, a lovely Niu Niu girl."
When Vanessa heard Shao Yun say that he was afraid that she would be scared, she immediately perked up.
She quickly pulled out an eye mask from the small cloth bag at her waist, proudly showed it to Shao Yun, and said, "I'm not afraid! Even if I'm really scared, as long as I put on this mask, I won't have to be afraid of anything!"
After saying that, Varesa put on the eye mask on her face without hesitation, and deliberately lowered her voice, pretending to be brave and fearless.
She straightened up, put her hands on her hips, and shouted loudly: "Hero Varesha is here! Haha, monsters of the abyss, come at me if you have the guts!"
Shao Yun looked at Varesa, who was dressed as a "Bull Warrior", and a hint of embarrassment twitched at the corner of his mouth.
He couldn't help it. He started to complain: "I have to say, you and Paimon are a perfect match. This feeling is so... abstract!"
Varesha obviously didn't quite understand what Shao Yun meant by the word "abstract". She asked curiously, "Abstract? What does that mean? I don't quite understand."
Seeing this, Shao Yun waved his hands and explained: "Well, actually there is nothing special about it. It just means that you look very cute and a little silly."
After listening to Shao Yun's explanation, Vanessa showed a shy smile on her face.
She touched her cheek gently and said a little embarrassedly: "So that's how it is. Haha, thank you for the compliment. I was a little embarrassed."
Just as the two were talking, the sound of crisp horse hooves came from far away.
Shao Yun and Vanessa looked in the direction of the sound at the same time, and saw the Apocalypse horse "Famine" slowly approaching from the depths of Vanessa's orchard.
The horse's coat was dark, almost black, blending in with the surroundings. Its body was extremely thin, and it was tortured by hunger.
But those red eyes revealed greed and hunger, giving people a feeling that they could devour everything.
It is the embodiment of unfair trade and hunger, the third clarion call of destruction - famine!
A group of locusts lingered around the Apocalypse Horse "Famine", making a rapid and powerful buzzing sound.
Varesa looked at the appearance of the Apocalypse Horse "Famine" and swallowed nervously. Although she was mentally prepared, she still said with some concern: "This is, what a scary guy!"
Shao Yun raised the bag of money in his hand that contained thirty silver coins and said confidently, "That's right, the apocalypse that brings 'famine'."
Varesa was ready for battle and said, "Want to fight? Even though the enemy looks scary, I will fight like our tribal hero!"
Shao Yun shook his head, pulled Varesha behind him, and replied: "No need, I will tame it."
……
What happened afterwards was exactly the same as when Shao Yun tamed the Apocalypse horses "Plague" and "War".
Use the sound of the silver coins to attract the Apocalypse Horse "Famine" to come closer, and let it lower its proud head.
Shao Yun took a deep breath, cut his palm with a dagger, and smeared the blood on the head of the Apocalypse horse "Famine".
The moment Shao Yun's hand touched Famine's head, a strange feeling came over him.
It is completely different from the feeling of sucking one's own blood brought by the previous "plague" and the burning sensation brought by the "war".
As soon as Shao Yun touched the word "famine", he was immediately overwhelmed by an extreme desire for food.
His stomach was in desperate need of filling up with a large amount of food.
At the same time, he also felt a sense of emptiness, not just a need for food, but also a desire for money, power, or something else that was hard to describe.
Or rather, the desire for indulgence?
This feeling became stronger and stronger, and just when he was about to be consumed by this desire, the system prompt suddenly sounded.
[You have tamed the apocalypse horse "Famine". ]
As the system prompted, the strange feeling in Shao Yun's heart quickly faded away.
He breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and looked at the tamed apocalypse horse "Famine" in front of him.
Then, the system popped up several prompts.
[You obtained "Blood Alliance: Don't Starve" (Parchment)]
【Famine comes with locusts, bringing hunger and 'unfair' trade. 】
[The effect of Apocalypse Horse "Famine": Famine can move in the air by stepping on the locusts under its feet. ]
[Special effect: The apocalypse horse 'Famine' tamed by you can release the power of 'Famine', causing chaos and destroying a country. ]
[Of course, to a certain extent, it can protect a region from famine. ]
[Hint: The power that accompanies famine is waiting for your exploration...]
……
Shao Yun stared at the system's long description of the Apocalypse Horse "Famine", especially the description that it could fly.
"In short, this apocalypse horse can not only fly, but also bring good weather and good harvests to a region?"
A dialog box pops up.
[That’s right. After all, locust plagues represent famine, and locusts can fly. So the Apocalypse Horse “Famine” can fly in the sky by stepping on locusts.]
[As for the good weather and good harvest, this is only relative...]
A thought suddenly flashed through Shao Yun's mind, and he remembered the enhanced version of the Wings of Wind that the God of Wind had once given him.
Since the apocalypse horse "Famine" can fly freely in the sky, can the wings of wind given to him by the God of Wind retire?
"If that's the case, then the Wings of Wind that the Wind God gave me now seem redundant?" Shao Yun said to himself, "But this is just right. When the time comes, I can finish everything that needs to be finished."
[I know what you are thinking, but let's put aside the matter of the Wind God for now. Currently, there is an abyssal tumor at the Turan Volcano that is constantly pouring magma down the mountain.]
Before the system finished speaking, the Turan volcano began to erupt violently again.
Shao Yun raised his head and saw thick smoke billowing out of the crater. Hot magma gushed out and flowed down the hillside.
"Abyssal Tumor..."
At this moment, Vanessa on the side still remembered that Shao Yun's palm was cut.
She looked at Shao Yun with concern, took out a Band-Aid from her pocket, and asked with concern: "Mr. Shao Yun, your hand is injured, do you need a Band-Aid?"
Shao Yun looked at Varesha who was about to bandage his palm, handed her his intact left hand, and said easily: "No need, the wound has healed."
Varesha widened her eyes, looked at Shao Yun's palm in disbelief, and asked curiously:
"Hey? Why do your wounds heal so quickly? Do you have any secret?"
Her eyes were full of anticipation, and she really wanted to know how Shao Yun did it.
After all, when she was working out, she would sometimes strain her muscles or get bruises from bumping into other people. It would be great if she had Shao Yun's recovery ability.
Shao Yun looked at the curious girl Vanessa in front of him and said tactfully: "I think now may not be the time to discuss this issue..."
Varessa nodded gently and temporarily put aside the doubts in her heart.
However, her curious gaze moved away from Shao Yun's newly tamed Apocalypse horse "Famine".
She tilted her head slightly, looking at the skinny horse carefully like a curious cow.
"This horse looks so skinny," Varesha couldn't help but sigh. "Also, why are there locusts under its hooves? I don't like horses like this."
The Apocalypse Horse "Famine" understood what Vanessa said. It snorted in dissatisfaction, then quickly turned its head away and no longer looked at Vanessa, expressing its dissatisfaction with her.
Upon seeing this, Shao Yun turned over and jumped onto the back of the Apocalypse horse "Famine" and sat firmly.
"Don't be fooled by Famine's thin appearance. In fact, it has muscles growing inside its bones!"
Upon hearing this, Varessa scratched her head, trying to understand Shao Yun's words.
"Huh? What does that mean? Does it mean it's like a concentrated essence?"
Shao Yun smiled and nodded, and answered affirmatively: "Yes, that's about what I mean!"
Then he tightened the reins slightly and prepared to set off.
"Now, I'm going to go to the Turan volcano to have a look."
Before he finished speaking, Shao Yun suddenly swung the reins, and the Apocalypse Horse "Famine" immediately understood. It raised its hooves, stepped out of the endless locusts under its feet, and galloped towards the Turan Volcano.
Varesha stared in amazement at Shao Yun riding a horse and flying up into the sky. She said in surprise, "Mom! I saw a horse flying in the sky!"
