Surviving The Fourth Calamity

Chapter 1570: Chapter 148: Ambori Really Does Have Good Taste

”Shield wall!” The man’s roar was earth-shattering.

”凸(艹皿艹)... Ah!!!” The piercing scream echoed through the clouds.

Luckily, ’Hard Wind’ knows his wife well and suppressed ’Cunlü’s’ curse words with his loud roar... Otherwise, even if she tried to cover it up with screams later, those Aescesians nearby wouldn’t be much better off than Lind on the Cloud Platform.

Seriously, it’s nuts how these evil gods and demons all share the same style... Just monsters under the skin, right? Why do they have to get all messy with blood and guts?

But the most unbelievable thing is, after bleeding so much, why do the monsters inside just grow twice as big?

Man, it’s awful! What kind of genius came up with a creature like this, a whole fish body with two gnome legs added below and two dwarf arms on top?

No wonder Road Eunuch says Ambori is one of the few evil gods with a sense of appreciation... with a shark-head that’s only fish at the head!

And it smells so bad!

Even surrounded by wild boar, ’Hard Wind’ feels for the first time the pain others experience when facing him and his wife, and stealthily turns off his sense of smell.

He thought he’d gotten used to the smell of the muddy swamp, and no other odor could defeat him!

Turns out the fishy smell isn’t the same as the swamp stench!

’Cunlü’ hides behind ’Hard Wind’, mumbling softly, ”Damn, my clothes got covered in crap! I haven’t worn it enough yet~”

”Don’t, Old Dog wants to create an image of the First Beauty for you!” ’Hard Wind’ swings his giant shield, using the sound of the wind to cover their conversation, ”It probably has something to do with the world’s rules, you better not lower your defenses.

Otherwise, I’m afraid even our Duchess can’t save you.

If you end up getting screwed, remember not to drag me in, I still need to go home and raise my daughter!”

”Hard Wind, you are...”

”You guys are having a good time chatting?” A voice eerily sounds behind them, ”I’m not that happy!”

”Ugh...” ’Hard Wind’ can’t help but shiver, ”The defenses of the Cloud Platform were broken? Not... that easily, right?”

”The middle wasn’t, but the edge broke a little, blood came in.” ’Old Age Striking King’ sneers, ”I...”

”My dear must love me so much, that’s why she’s on the side ready to save me, right?” ’Cunlü’ grins with flattery at her, ”Ah, I knew it, Elder always loves me most, way better than Hard Wind the cheating lover!”

”I love my husband the most.” ’Old Age Striking King’ interrupts her coldly, ”Don’t just heal Hard Wind, there’s Thunder and the others too! Especially Ditte’s group, don’t crash the car now.”

”Elder darling, can you set up a changing room for me?” ’Cunlü’ stays squat behind ’Hard Wind’s’ broad back, ”Look at my dirty clothes, if I stand up and get to work, it’ll shed powder!”

’Old Age Striking King’ can’t resist rolling her eyes, then waves to throw out a giant umbrella... suppressed by a naturally grown golden mushroom from the Elf Forest, its patterns all naturally dark gold, exquisitely beautiful.

And this mushroom, the spore layer behind the umbrella isn’t attached to the top, but hangs down in strings. The skillful elves will thin and lengthen these thick strips, eventually turning them into a sheer fabric that can be seen from inside but not from outside.

’Cunlü’ quickly searches for new clothes in her wardrobe... Ah, right, that Ellie wanted to learn her Elf Wind style, huh?

Heh, what Elf Wind, this is really just the elves’ colors, Zholar style!

Such clothes, without confidence like ’Old Mom’s the world’s most beautiful’, or not being from a race like the Zholar used to exposure since childhood, when worn look no different from a fool.

Hey~ If she’s not used to it, covering those exposed areas with fabric... it’s like wearing a dress with a deep V neckline down to the navel, but insisting on wearing an undershirt inside—tsk tsk, just makes people think she can’t even afford clothes that fit.

’Cunlü’s’ hand pauses on a long dress, a mischievous smile at the corner of her mouth as she changes into it.

She enviously glances at the sun umbrella beside her... This thing’s so precious, you can’t buy it no matter how much money you have.

But, if ’Old Age Striking King’ wants it, those Nature Mages from Toril who bet wrong almost half sell, half gift: this thing’s a specialty of some Tower of Nature, humans can’t buy it at all.

Those odd elves look down on even half-elves, let alone humans.

Too good a character... bet placed too accurately.

And it’s not just them, other mage forces behave more subservient, but because of Leonard’s connection, Edna is quite courteous to Tower of Nature.

Otherwise ’Old Age Striking King’, no matter how much she likes it, wouldn’t accept such a special offer.

’Cunlü’ lets out a playful whistle, ’Old Age Striking King’ waves to retract the umbrella, gives ’Cunlü’ a few blessings, then quietly retreats back inside the platform... She’ll affect ’Cunlü’s’ performance if she stays here.

Anyway, she just buffed the knights in battle with the ability to sustain healing for 45 seconds, with ’Cunlü’s’ adaptability and reaction speed, there won’t be any problems.

’Old Age Striking King’ is a Priest of the Sun God Temple, her healing spells always direct and intense.

’Cunlü’, who has long worked as her assistant, seems to have little presence but has always been able to work as Elder’s deputy in the priest corps... This has proven her strength isn’t just because of the Duchess.

So, actually very few people notice, she’s a rare Priest of the Goddess of Agriculture.

At the start, she chose the Agriculture Temple simply because... even if she and ’Hard Wind’ had a mine at home, too many pigs were a bit overwhelming.

Although the Agriculture Temple can’t let her, like Hill, spontaneously grow a field of magic plants, it’s enough for her to set up an ordinary pumpkin field.

Anyway, healing skills, they’re pretty much the same across temples... at most, she has to prepare more plant seeds or powders as casting mediums.

Just right, ’Old Age Striking King’ is from the Sun God Temple, their auxiliary divine arts can complement each other... like when ’Cunlü’ grows the pumpkin field, ’Old Age Striking King’ can summon sunlight and dew to help speed up growth.

Her healing spells too, if there’s Elder’s Sun’s Blessing, it can enhance them quite a bit... and what she’s best at is group healing.

The most crucial part is, because of the Natural Divine System’s traits, her healing buffs can directly deal sustained damage to evil.

’Cunlü’s’ smooth little foot gently steps, and the pea vine she’s already grown on the Cloud Platform’s edge... she can only grow agricultural crops... gently curls up around her, lifting her into the air.

She softly chants spells, and green leaves gently adhere to the knights.

The cheering whistles of the Undead Tribe, who’ve already noticed the situation and started gathering here, ring endlessly. Cheers are non-stop.

Although fighting dreadful fish-headed monsters, a few knights can’t help but look up.

Ditte would like to scold them, but he himself couldn’t resist his eyes with a mind of their own.
