"Although it is a little clever, the velociraptor is still not out of the category of beasts, you only need to use a little deceptive movements, it is easy to attract its attention and make the other party show its flaws. ”

As he walked, Siegmund said to Siegrude that although he was a strict father, in the bottom of his heart, he still loved his son, but he just didn't know how to show this love, and he didn't know how to be a qualified father.

"It's here. ”

After walking for about ten minutes, Siegmund led the boy to an open meadow with a circular hole in the middle.

The air was filled with the smell of blood, rancidity, and animal droppings, and the boy's sensitive sense of hearing allowed him to hear the heavy breathing of the beast coming from the pit.

He carefully checked the clothes on his body to make sure that he would not appear in the battle, carrying special cases such as loose and loose clothes, and finally tightened the weapon in his hand and came to the side of the hole.

Because it was in the depths of the forest, the sun was very dim, and when he poked his head out of the edge of the hole and looked down, it was pitch black and he couldn't see anything, and the boy turned his head to look at his father, and then swallowed nervously.

The boy knew that his opponent was in the pit, like the arena in the storybook, and he needed to fight the beast with his weapon, win the battle, and survive.

The only difference from the arena was that it was in a wilderness forest, and his father Siegmund was the only spectator, with no applause, no wealth, no money, and no honor.

"The velociraptors are down there, grab your weapons and go for victory. ”

Siegmund spoke calmly, his gaze unquestionable, as if he were on the ice of a high mountain, as if to say that if he was grinding, he would throw the boy off it.

The boy knew that his father could do such a thing, because when he was reluctant to train, his father threw him into the icy water in the winter and asked him to swim for thirty minutes before he came ashore.

If it weren't for the physique that he had exercised since he was a child, and the blood of Barusinge, the boy would have died in such cruel training due to various diseases, after all, this kind of training would not be able to support it, let alone children.

"Father, it's too dark. ”

In such a dark environment, the eyes have no way to play a role, compared to the eyes, or the sixth sense is more reliable, such a skill of fighting in the dark is also called blind combat by the warriors.

Obviously, the boy did not master such a skill, that is, the training that was originally thought to be easy and difficult was suddenly raised to the hell level, and in the dark environment, the same velociraptor fought and won, even a battle-hardened warrior is not easy to win.

"That's not a reason why you don't want to fight. ”

Zigmund said solemnly.

"My child, the enemy will not bypass you because you are weak, all you can do is to become strong before then, seize every opportunity, and make yourself stronger than all enemies. ”

"My child, this world is cruel, the strong make the rules, and the weak can only follow the rules, without strength, they can't do anything, haven't you been asking about your mother? ”

Siegmund's words made the boy collect his fears, and his mind was drawn to his father's last words, the word mother, which seemed to be just a word written in a book since childhood.

Ever since he was sensible, he had been asking his father about his mother, because in many of the stories that Zygmund told him, the protagonist had a role like a mother in addition to his father.

From the beginning of curiosity to now turn into obsession, in the absence of pursuit, to be able to find his biological mother, to be able to obtain information about his mother, even if it is just a word of news, is what he longs for.

"Yes, understood, my father. ”

The boy named Sigurud was not wasting time, he gritted his teeth, picked up a stone from the ground, threw it hard under the hole, and after a long time heard the echo from below, and nodded.

This is to judge the depth of this pit by the echo, because he knows that for the velociraptor with a keen sense of smell, he must have discovered his arrival early, and must have been ready to launch an attack, so he must not climb down slowly.

In addition, this stone is also a kind of temptation, test the location of the velociraptor to see if the stone can alarm the other party, make the other party make a sound, and leak relevant information.

"Here!"

Siegrud shouted loudly, then jumped down from it, holding his wooden sword aloft and slashing hard in one direction in the darkness.

Of course, it was empty, and the velociraptor was not a dead thing that did not know how to move, and when he was sure that the enemy was above, he had already entered a state of imminent combat, constantly moving his position to dodge the first attack that might appear.

It is the stupidest mistake to treat beasts as rigid and inflexible, because they have no intelligence, so they rely more on intuition and experience engraved in their bloodlines to fight.

The boy who missed the blow rolled on the ground with all his strength, and then the sound of something sharp piercing into the dirt was heard in his ears, and a dark shadow landed in his place.

Because of the light, only a very reluctant black shadow could be seen, and the senses of smell and hearing could not be used, because the whole environment emitted a foul stench, and some sounds echoed.

"Damn. ”

The boy gritted his teeth so hard that he felt a pain all over his body.

He was waiting for the opponent to attack, because only when the opponent attacked would the flaws be revealed, so that he could win the battle with one blow.

Only one person survived, and this was such an arena, such a battle, with conventionally agreed rules, and in order not to disappoint his father, in order to prove that his efforts during this time had not been in vain, in order to get news of his mother, the boy felt that he had to win this battle.

"Hiss"

Velociraptor cries of warning are often used by beasts to intimidate their opponents, and if they are frightened and turn to flee, the velociraptors will not hesitate to attack, jumping on the back of their prey and biting their prey's neck.

"Shut up!"

The boy yelled back.

"Come on, come on!"

The boy maintained a sword holding position, one foot in front and one in the back, his whole body tensed, staring intently at the unclear black shadow of the velociraptor with all his attention.

"Click"

The sound of bones colliding with each other came and the smell of the incomparably fishy smell came to his face, and the boy Sigurud was short, dodging the bite of the velociraptor as expected, and then rolling again to avoid the tail swing that followed.

Don't look at the very slender tail of the velociraptor and think that there is not much power, that tail can easily break the thickness of the bowl, with Siegrud's small body, if it is hit, it will be easily knocked into the air, and then there will be no second.

Embarrassed, very embarrassed, but Siegrud survived the velociraptor attack intact, and he turned to face the velociraptor again, and made a defiant sound from his mouth.

Although it was just a very simple and blind dodge, it was enough to make the boy's heart become confident and remind him of what he had gained from the brutal training he usually underwent to practice.

"Come on, you coward!"

The child didn't know how to curse, and his father, Sigrude, wasn't the kind of guy who was rude and swearing, and the word coward was still used to demean people from his father's stories.

Of course, the velociraptor couldn't understand what the boy was saying, but the failure to hit two consecutive attacks still made him feel very manic, he had been separated from his own group for two days, in this dark environment, without food and water for two days.

He was already hungry, and all that was left in his mind was to kill his prey quickly, enjoy a rare meal, and find a way to get out of this dark pit and return to his people.

Velociraptors appear to be formidable, but they are only barely able to survive in this forest, and that is because they live in groups, and individual velociraptors can even be reduced to the bottom of the food chain here.

His mania had affected his movements, and if it were in normal times, he would not have attacked in such a hurry, he must have hidden, waiting for the moment when the prey leaked a flaw, and tore off the throat of the prey.

On the other hand, the boy has completely calmed down and began to prepare to use tactics to attract the hatred of the velociraptor and let him continue to attack, because he has discovered the peculiarity of the velociraptor body.

This is a hungry velociraptor that means that the velociraptor does not have the stamina and energy to attack for a long time and with high intensity, and as long as it attacks a few more times, the velociraptor will lose all its stamina and become a lamb to the slaughter.

Although it was a victory, the boy knew that this was not the victory that his father and himself wanted, that it was a fight to the death, and that there was no such thing as a hand-holding.

Five seconds later, the velociraptor attacked again, just like the book record, the single-headed velociraptor attack was very easy to see, back and forth with its teeth, with its body, tail swing and claw attack.

With a little attention, trained fighters can easily dodge.

And this time, the boy didn't dodge with a roll like he did on the previous two occasions, because he didn't underestimate his opponent, fooled twice in the same way, and he didn't think that the third time the opponent would make the same mistake.

In fact, it was the foot of the velociraptor that landed first, and if he rolled just now, he would be directly stepped on the ground by the velociraptor and unable to move.

Then, with a thud, the sound of a hard object hitting the wall sounded, and the velociraptor let out a whining wail and fell to the ground.

Just now, the boy was leaning against the wall to provoke, in such a dark environment, dim vision did not work, and after the boy dodged the attack, the head of the velociraptor hit the wall directly.

"Chance!"

Without any hesitation, the boy took the sword and launched a frantic attack on the feet of the velociraptor and if he could, it would be best to directly attack the heart and throat of the velociraptor to kill him with one hit.

But when he dodged just now, he tried to fight back, and found that the wooden sword in his hand could not break through the skin of the velociraptor heart and throat at all, so he had to change another option and attack from the weak place.

The boy's chosen targets were the protruding veins in the velociraptor heel, which could slow him down by attacking the velociraptor foot, and on the other hand, the massive blood loss could slowly take the other person's life.

The boy only attacked for three seconds, and he didn't look at the results, he quickly retreated, and happened to dodge the tail of the velociraptor by a few centimeters, and the boy's face would be hit.

It's dangerous

The boy thought silently, that he had not become carried away with the first attack, and that he had remained cautious, taking it lightly until the enemy had confirmed death.

The velociraptor rose from the ground, and a stumbling stumble almost fell, and he roared angrily, attacking as if he had been played, filling the beast's heart with rage.

Hitting the wall with all his strength is not a good experience, and more importantly, his head is still aching faintly, unable to think calmly, his feet have become numb, and he feels that something is flowing out of his body, it should be blood, maybe it will not be long before the hungry and sleepy velociraptor will lose the ability to fight due to excessive bleeding.

In such a state, if he was on the ground, he would have turned around and fled, but in such an arena-like pit, he had no way to retreat, he could only find a way to kill the enemy in front of him, have a full meal, and prolong his life.

Victory is not far away

But it's not time to relax yet

The boy kept adjusting his steps, carefully circling the velociraptor in a circle, looking for an opportunity to attack

The roles of the offensive and defensive sides are completely reversed, and the ferocious beast has fallen into a disadvantage because of the previous impulse, and does not dare to attack easily, but it is not possible not to attack, and it is a dead end to continue to wait without attacking.

Driven to the edge of a cliff where there is no way back

The velociraptor lowered his head and slowly retreated to the edge of the wall.

The crater became quiet, but both sides knew that the initiative was already in the hands of the boy, and the velociraptor had to win and kill the other in a short time to have any hope of survival.

However, when they entered the state of battle, neither side was obsessed with the battle, but they did not realize that the man Siegmund had come to the top of the pit, holding another black object in his hand and making a strange noise.
