Chapter 65: The Full Moon

Vera looked at the scenery outside the cave, the frozen snow-capped mountains at dusk, always with a vast and majestic momentum.

"How's the injury? Luck was good this afternoon, and I hit this thing again. Kordak raised the snow hare in his hand.

"Fortunately, it's basically ready to move. Vera said with a smile, her face flushed, and she no longer looked as pale and weak as before.

If you count from the time you fell into the valley, it's already the third day. Thanks to Kordak's meticulous care for the past three days, Vera's injuries have recovered quickly, and now her wounds have scabbed over, and it looks like it will heal in a few days.

"It really happened!" Vera thought silently, and Vera had little hope for herself that day.

Seriously injured, lost in the snowy mountains and valleys, and the low temperature and harsh environment, all of this made her feel that it was impossible for her to get out of the snowy mountains alive. Yes, Vera was desperate at first, but Kordaq didn't.

This man with very thick lines has been patiently taking care of her for the past three days, going out to hunt every day, cleaning her wounds every day, racking his brains every day to amuse her and give her hope.

And now, a miracle has finally happened, and although Regner and Annelot have not been able to find it, her injuries have healed, and it looks like she will be able to find a way out of the valley with Kordaq in two days.

Kordaq had made her believe him, she agreed, and he did, and this time, they finally got through it again.

"Now, another healing potion, and you should be pretty much there. Kordak pulled a healing potion out of his bosom and handed it to Vera. His face was a little pale, and his hand holding the healing potion trembled slightly.

"It seems that he is really tired these days. Vera thought silently as she looked at Kordak's tired face that couldn't be concealed. She reached out and took the healing potion and said casually, "Why do you have so many healing potions with you? The money for this product is enough for you to buy a few more bottles of authentic primary healing potion." ”

"Hey, at that time, this thing sold for fifty silver coins on the black market, and a bottle of genuine primary healing potion was ten gold coins, which was twenty times more expensive than it. I thought I would buy more to take with me in case of any trouble, but I forgot about it until two days later, and I didn't expect it to work so well!" Cordak replied with a smile as he sat down on the stone beside Vera.

"But this thing is too unpalatable, fishy and a little salty, like the real thing. Vera frowned, the defective goods that Cordak gave him in the past two days not only had a mediocre therapeutic effect, but also tasted extremely bad, and this kind of thing was worth fifty silver coins if it survived.

Either way, this is a life-saving potion, so Vera complains and complains, and drinks the healing potion in one go.

"It's nice to be able to save lives, and you picked it up. Kordaq tucked the empty bottle into his arms, then leaned against the wall and sighed deeply.

Vera looked at the tired Kordak and felt a little sad in her heart. She shifted and slipped into Kordak's arms like a kitten.

"Kordak ......"

"Huh?"

"This ...... I've worked hard for you these past few days. Vera leaned against Kordak's broad chest and said with some sneer.

"Hey, what's the matter? who is with whom, I am the captain and should take care of my team members. In terms of selfishness, you are my woman, and I have to protect you as a man. Cordak smiled and tentatively said that this was the first time he had shown his relationship to Vera, and he didn't know if Vera would accept him.

"Who's your woman?" Vera spat, her face already heating slightly.

Seeing that Vera did not deny it with a serious face, Cordak was very happy in his heart, and he struck while the iron was hot and said, "Sooner or later, you don't want to run away!"

Vera felt Cordak's strong heartbeat, and realized that even men with thick neural circuits can be nervous. She listened silently, the events of the past few months flashing through her mind. Kordak, Regner, Anne Lot, Selenos, Eve......

"Thinking about Regner?" Cordak vaguely guessed something when he saw that Vera hadn't spoken for a long time.

Vera nodded lightly and said, "yes, I don't know how Xiao Lei is now." I haven't seen him in three or four days, and I'm worried he might run into a snow troll......"

Cordak gently patted Vera's head and said, "Don't worry, Xiao Lei will be fine, don't forget that this kid single-handedly dealt with several orcs, don't look at him cowering all day long, he is also a reliable person when it really matters." What's more, Anne Lot should be by his side now, and with her, it is absolutely impossible for Regner to have an accident. ”

Vera glanced at Cordak in some surprise: "Usually you are always lukewarm to Anne, why are you so confident in her at this time?"

"I'm just too confident in her to be lukewarm to her. Kordak said helplessly.

"What do you mean?"

"Forget it, it doesn't matter if you tell you, but don't tell Xiao Lei. Kordarke paused and said, "Actually, Annelot is a member of the Moon Shadow Thieves Guild, and, according to my speculation, is likely to be a high-ranking member. ”

"What?" Vera was a little surprised, but after thinking about it, she realized that it didn't seem impossible.

"Do you know why I was able to defeat Orwin so easily, because Anne Lot gave me all the information about him, and I studied him thoroughly in those two days. Kordak explained.

"I see. Vera nodded, and then asked, "Then Anne is also helping you, why do you always have a bad attitude towards her?"

"She's actually just helping the Lunaris Thieves Guild, because Orwin is also a cancer that the Lunaris Thieves Guild wants to get rid of, but they borrowed my hand to make it happen. I was indirectly used as a gun by them, and they were actually the ones who took advantage. Kordak sneered.

In fact, Kordaq was right, it was indeed the Lunaris Thieves Guild that took advantage.

Well...... In more detail, it is Anne Lot, because before the duel began, the girl pressed 10,000 gold coins in the underground casino to buy Cordak to win, and forcibly made the original odds of one to six to five to one......

Kordak thought he had made a lot of money, but in fact Anne Lot was the biggest winner in that gamble. Poor Kordak thought he had made a good deal, but he didn't know that Anne Lot was secretly sneering at his smug face.

"It's not the most critical either...... Although it was just my gut feeling, I always felt that the orc raid in the Nightsong Forest might have something to do with her, at least with the Lunaris Thieves Guild. Kordaq continued, "So, I've always felt that Selenos's death had something to do with her, or that she knew something about it. ”

......Hearing this name, Vera also felt a pain in her heart, the taciturn but meticulous man had left them forever.

"It's been more than two months, hasn't it?" Vera sighed.

"Yes, it's been two months...... Kordak muttered, but it wasn't long before his face turned extremely ugly.

"Damn! it's been two months!" Cordak suddenly shoved Vera up, and she stood up on her own.

Vera was a little surprised by Kordak's sudden abnormality, but she quickly reacted. Because today, it's a full moon night again!

"Hell, no wonder I always feel a little weird tonight!" Cordak thought to himself, and he quickly thought about it in his heart, now that there was no rope to tie himself, he could only choose to separate the two for the time being.

He walked quickly to Vera, and he gently touched Vera's slightly frightened little face: "Don't be afraid, there is still time." I'll leave now, and you'll be here tonight. I'll run as far as I can, and I'll come back by myself tomorrow, and if I don't come back after noon tomorrow, find a way to get some smoke out of the fire, and I'll get it back myself, and the fire will be for you. ”

Vera trembled and took the fire, and she suddenly said: "Why don't I go out, you are too tired these days, I have been awake, I will definitely find my way back." ”

"No! you are injured now, you can't run around in the wild anymore!

Vera wanted to say something, but seeing that Cordak looked extremely resolute, she opened her mouth, but after all, she didn't say anything.

After Kordak explained everything, he hugged Vera in his arms and comforted: "Don't be afraid, it's okay, it's okay tonight." ”

"Be careful, I'll wait for you. Vera said softly.

"I'll be back, don't worry, I've always done what I said. Kordak smiled and glanced at Vera, then walked out of the cave. Vera noticed from Cordak's footsteps that he seemed to be a little out of control.

Dozens of minutes later, the werewolf's terrible howl resounded through the snowy mountains, and Vera crouched in the corner of the cave, burying her head under her arms, and she felt a little uneasy now.

The howl continued to sound in the snowy mountains, and Vera forced herself to calm down, silently thinking in her mind that she would be fine after tonight. But it wasn't long before another powerful roar rang out from the other direction.

"Whew!"

"Roar!"

The roars of the two monsters came and went, and from the direction, they were definitely approaching.

"Kordaq...... Kordak!" Vera could no longer restrain her worries about Kordak, and ran out of the cave in the direction from which the sound came.

The roars of the two beasts finally overlapped and became more and more deafening, mixed with the wails of injuries, which made Vera's heart twist.

"Quick! faster!" The snow on the snowy mountain was more than a foot deep, and Vera's wound was now just healed, and running on the snow was extremely difficult, and if she was not careful, the wound was in danger of bursting.

But she didn't care about any of that now, as the roars of the two beasts faded away, and it seemed that the battle was almost decided.

The roar was already very close, and Vera couldn't help but pick up her pace again, and when she arrived at the scene, the scene in front of her made her eyes go black, and she almost fainted.
