[Chapter 39 Strong Woman Laura]
“Who will the other one be? When will he come?”
David, who was full of expectations, did not get an answer, but was grabbed by Laura to help him sort things out.
“What are all these?”
“Jungle clothing, polar clothing, diving suits, weapons, ammunition, medicine, climbing tools, fire-making tools, food, clean water…” Laura pointed to the piles of things in front of her and introduced them to David one by one.
All kinds of equipment filled Laura’s cabin so much that it was hard to find a place to stay.
David stood at the door of the wooden house, looking at the pile of equipment in the house and was very speechless: “Winter Village has become your portable supply station?”
“Yes!” Laura admitted very readily, and gave David a sweet smile: “And you, a priest who can use holy light to heal people, as well as protect and buff spells.”
“Ha!” David really wanted to complain that it was a pity that I couldn’t save the game, but he swallowed his words back. After all, it didn’t sound very auspicious: “By the way, do you want to try the thing we agreed on before?”
“Holy light?”
“Yes.” David had promised Laura a long time ago that he would share some holy light power with Laura’s body so that Laura could experience what it felt like to use holy light.
“Already know how to do it?” Speaking of this, Laura became interested, and didn’t care about the various equipment that had not been sorted out yet, and asked directly what she should do?
“Let’s try it first.” He moved some of the things in the room to make some space for Laura to sit cross-legged, and then David sat opposite Laura: “Hold my hands.”
Laura spread her hands and looked at David curiously as he placed his hands on her palms.
“Feel the flow of energy carefully.”
As David spoke, a warm current appeared in Laura’s palms and slowly flowed along her arms into her body.
“What a magical feeling.” Laura watched her hands being enveloped by a ball of golden light, and then slowly moved to her body. The places enveloped by the light were warm, just like being illuminated by warm sunshine, and there was no need to worry about getting sunburned: “Is this the holy light?” It was
completely different from the feeling of being protected by the holy light released by David. At that time, Laura had no special feeling at all. Only when she was attacked would her body flash with golden light, and this light was fleeting, which made it difficult for her to have any special feelings. But it was different
at this moment. She could clearly feel a stream of energy pouring into her body and slowly spreading to all parts of her body.
Not long after, Laura was enveloped by holy light, which soon faded and disappeared. At the same time, Laura felt that the warm and comfortable feeling on her body gradually disappeared. This change made her stunned for a moment: “Is this a failure?”
“It’s not a failure. You already have holy light in your body. You just have to learn how to mobilize and use this power.”
“What should I do?”
“This…”
David thought about it and found that he didn’t know what to do in Laura’s situation.
He had obtained the holy light directly at the beginning, and there was no difficulty in mobilizing and using it. There was no such problem as Laura faced: “Maybe I should ask Fording, he must know how to mobilize the holy light that has been stored in his body.”
In theory, Laura’s current situation is very similar to the blood knights created by the elves of Quel’Thalas. Those elves extracted the holy light possessed by the holy light life such as Naaru, and then stored it in their bodies, thereby obtaining the same abilities as human paladins.
The disadvantage is that when the Blood Knights release the Holy Light spell, they can only rely on the Holy Light stored in their bodies. Don’t expect the “Holy Light from the outside world” to help. At the same time, the Holy Light in their bodies is used up a little bit, and if they want to replenish it, they can only return to the main city and draw it from the Naaru again.
The same is true for Laura. Once the Holy Light in her body is used up, it is gone. There is no way to “recover by itself”. If she wants to replenish it,
she can only come to David. However, this small problem is not a problem for Laura at all. What she needs to solve most now is the “use skills”. After all , Laura is different from the elves. The elves of Quel’Thalas have rich experience in using arcane energy. There are few races that are better than these elves in using energy, so they can use this kind of tricky method to cultivate Blood Knights.
“By the way, there is Holy Light in your body now, which means you can boldly do some exercises beyond your limit.”
“What do you mean?” Laura suddenly didn’t react to what David meant by this, and then she reacted. She saw with her own eyes how David usually exercises, and many projects are beyond the level that ordinary humans can bear: “Can I also exercise like you?”
“That’s right. “
With the protection of the Holy Light, Laura can more boldly squeeze the potential of her body. Even if Laura cannot learn how to use the Holy Light stored in her body, this alone can make her stronger.
“I want to try.”
“You don’t need to pack your equipment?”
“If what you said is right, I can do more rigorous training, so I can wait for a while before setting off.” Laura’s idea is simple. If David’s judgment is correct, she plans to improve her physical fitness before setting off.
At that time, with sufficient logistical supplies and holy light protection, she feels that she can calmly deal with various troubles that may arise. After all, she already knows that there are mysterious powers in her world. Who knows what strange situations she will encounter at that time?
“If I train my strength to be stronger, can I move heavier things here?” Laura’s mind turned quickly. In addition to being able to better deal with dangers, she also thought of another benefit: “Even if I can’t lift a car, it shouldn’t be a big deal to lift a motorcycle, right?”
“…” David remembered that the weight of a motorcycle was between 150 kilograms and 250 kilograms. The specific amount depends on the brand and type, but even the lightest one, ordinary people can’t lift it, right? Not to mention lifting it and walking around.
If Laura trains to that level…
David’s mind flashed Laura walking back and forth in the village with a motorcycle, and the picture was a bit hard to look at.
He was frantically imagining the various bizarre behaviors of the strong woman Laura Crawford. Laura had already gone to Fording to learn how to use the Holy Light, and by the way, he was considering whether to build a gym in Winter Village.
David watched Laura run to the forest in the north, and he was free again, so he sat back at the table.
Mark should have just returned from Mars, and it seems that he took a bath on Mars. The alien villagers in Winter Village, such as Laura and Mark, can go to another place to solve personal problems at any time, and they are not too dependent on the infrastructure of Winter Village.
However, as the population of Winter Village increases, various facilities must be built.
David and Mark discussed a few words about public toilets and wells. Mark felt that the toilet problem was easy to solve, but Laura needed to provide some building materials, otherwise, with the materials from Winter Village, there would be many problems with the toilets built.
“I’ll talk to Laura… Where’s Laura?”
“She went to see Fording. You can talk to her about this after dinner… Actually, there’s no need to rush. Laura should be here recently.”
Mark looked surprised. He remembered that Laura said that she would go back to her own world to deal with some things recently: “Didn’t you say you were going out to deal with some things?”
“Because of some circumstances, the travel schedule has been adjusted.” David did not hide it from Mark and told him that Laura wanted to use the magic of the Holy Light to improve her physical fitness.
“There is such a thing?” Mark didn’t expect there would be such a good thing, but after looking at David, he didn’t make a similar request. He was not stupid. He could see that the relationship between Laura and the village chief David had changed a long time ago. He could only secretly hate himself for being a rough man: “What a pity~”
Mark’s exaggerated expression made David feel very speechless. He wanted to say that he was not that kind of person, but he felt that this was not convincing. After all, he really didn’t consider sharing the Holy Light with Mark. In a way, Mark was not wrong.
“At this time, in order to prove your fairness, shouldn’t you take the initiative to say that you can also share some Holy Light with me?”
“I’ve been drained by Laura. I’ll talk to you when I recover.” David saw that Mark was joking, so he answered with a smile.
However, in order to avoid the situation of “saying the truth in a joking way” and then causing a conflict, David still sincerely added: “Wait until Laura has a preliminary grasp of the Holy Light, and then help you master the Holy Light.”
Mark saw that David was serious about the latter sentence, and did not say anything, because he was really interested in the mysterious power: “Then it’s settled.”
Just as Mark said this, David seemed to have a trance. He didn’t know if he was dizzy from the gradually hot sun?
Thinking of a possibility, David thought it would be better to check around: anyway, as the village chief, it is his job to check the situation in the village frequently.
As soon as he stood up, David saw a shadow that had just appeared.
“Hey, someone is coming…Is Will back?” Mark also noticed the shadow not far away. He really wanted to know if the little Caribbean blacksmith had returned? Of course, it could be someone else – because there were consecutive examples, everyone guessed that new people might appear in pairs.
“Maybe!” David was not sure. Before the figure became solid, he could not see anything clearly, not even a hint.
Just as David and Mark were looking forward to the answer, an unexpected situation occurred: a shadow appeared next to the previous shadow.
“This… there must be a new person.”
