The short sword is in the hand, and the wind is whirring when it is swung. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info move the left foot, step back, parry, turn, raise the shield, and block. Squat, roll forward, sword stab forward. A set of actions is fluid.

Kassiu's eyes had adapted to the darkness, and he could see everything around him clearly, the short swords, shields, and armor doped with arcane crystals faintly glowing purple in the darkness.

"Awesome, awesome. Thorne exclaimed, "Cassiu, how did you turn a spear into a shield and a sword?"

"I'm an iron magician, and I change the form of iron to respond to different situations. Cassius inserted the dagger into the scabbard and replied, "The greatsword has the most attack power, the spear has the longest attack range, the short sword and shield have the most balance of attack and defense, the double short sword attacks most frequently, and the double shield or giant shield has the highest defense. ”

Nora, the son of the forest, squatted on the ground, watched Kasiu finish a full set of movements, blinked, and said, "Your weapons and armor are not made of pure iron. ”

"Yes, they were crafted with Arcane Crystals. Cassius patted Nora on the head, "You're observing. ”

Nora pushed Kaxiu's hand away and pouted, "Take your hands away, I'm not a child." ”

"Oh, sorry, get used to it. "After Casthew's body recovered, so did his sense of humor.

Nora stood up and touched Cassiu's shield, she closed her eyes and pricked up her ears, and after a while, she said, "No, you humans call it the Arcane Crystal, and in our case, call it the Essence of Pain." ”

"Spooky name. Thorne interjected, and he stood up, "I'll go get something to eat, Cassiu, I really admire you, I'm used to eating raw meat now." ”

A hint of bitterness slipped through Catheu's throat, and he forced himself to eat raw meat, and after a week of diarrhea, vomiting, and high fever, his collapsed body actually adapted to the environment. After that, he focused on regaining the mobility of his limbs.

"Thorne......" Cassius looked at Nora and stopped Thorne, "How long have I been here?"

Thorne walked over to the roots of the tree against the wall, counted the accumulated leaves, and said, "If I'm not mistaken, today is June 28th, exactly one month from the day Nora brought you back. ”

That is, on May 28th, we escaped from the Giant's Cave and I was severely wounded by the Rangers. Cassius calculated, if nothing else, William and the others should have reached the Great Wall.

"Nora, Thorne, thank you for taking care of me. Cassius looked at the two companions, "I must go, back to the Great Wall." ”

Thorne shook his head desperately, "No, you shouldn't go back!" Thorne picked up his short sword and stabbed at Katheu.

Cassius was taken aback, a cold light flashing in the darkness, and he blocked it with his shield. Thorne doesn't have a lot of strength and moves slowly, and if Cassiu is serious, he can finish Thorne in three rounds.

"You're not allowed to go out! they're going to kill you, they're going to find me, they're going to kill me!" Thorne's voice trembled, and he spoke his heart.

Cassius used his shield to block Thorne's attack, and he shouted, "Stop! Thorne! I must go back, the giants have awakened, I must go back to help them." ”

Thorne stopped attacking, he shook his head: "No, they killed you, thinking you were dead. Why are you going to help them?"

"Misunderstandings, all misunderstandings. Cassius adjusted his position and replied, "The giant is closing in, and Grant doesn't want to die in pain, so he wants me to give him pleasure." I have to make it clear to them that I am not a traitor. ”

Thorne's eyes widened, and he attacked again: "You're going to betray me!"

This attack was more fierce than before, but it was like an itch to Cassiu, and he swung his shield hard, knocking Thorne's short sword away, and shouted, "Enough! Thorne, you should be sober: you can't do anything about Otto's death, stop blaming yourself." After making it clear, no one will think that you are a deserter. ”

Nora walked up to Kasiu, pulled Lacasiu's clothes, and asked, "You're all going to leave me?"

Cassiu crouched down, pressed one hand on Nora's shoulder, and whispered, "I must go, Nora." The giants have woken up, and the empire is threatened. ”

"Don't ......," Nora sobbed, lowering her head, "I don't want you to go." Thorne and you broke into my world, and I don't want to go back to being alone. ”

Catheus stroked Nora's hair, the straw-like mess of hair was a little prickly, he was used to the smell of Nora's body. For more than a month, Nora came over every day to chat with him, make him laugh, and more importantly, if it weren't for Nora, Cassius would have died at the door of the Giant's Cave.

Cassius suddenly remembered the time of the One Year War. A little girl, holding his hand, didn't want him to leave, because in the whole village, she was the only one left. The polar people destroyed everything, and she was the only one rescued.

Cassiu hugged Nora like he had hugged the little girl. The corners of his mouth tasted bitter. He whispered, "Many years ago, I saved a little girl, about your age. She must follow me and be willing to wash my clothes in the barracks. I made a mistake and chose to keep her. ”

Cassius sobbed and patted Nora on the back: "As a result, when I returned from the expedition, I found that she had been violated by a group of villains and turned into a naked corpse. I can't forget her eyes before she died, full of fear, sadness, helplessness, and resentment. ”

Nora's emerald green eyes flashed, wiping away tears for Cassius.

"Understood? There are good people like me and Thorne, and there are some evil people who do all kinds of evil. Kasiu wiped away her tears, "A little girl like you is in the mouth of a tiger when she meets them. Not to mention, you are the only child of the forest in the world. ”

Nora slapped Cassius and cursed, "I'm not a little girl!

"They'll send you to the school city as a research object, and the Wizards' Guild will dissect you. Thorne interjected, "Cassius is right, you're the only child of the forest in the world, and you can't venture to a human place. ”

Nora was furious, bared her teeth and yelled, "I'm not a little girl! I don't want to be alone!

Suddenly, a huge hammer smashed through the walls, and the cave shook, falling a lot of earth.

Cassieu and Thorne hold on to the wall and see the light coming through the hole. Outside the walls was the light of the fire, and a pair of eyes looked into the cave.

"It's a giant!" he hears us!" Cassius whispered, "Hurry up, Nora, get out of here." ”

The giant's eyes peered into the cave, and Cassius hid in the corner, avoiding the giant's sight.

"We've been in the palace of the King of Giants?" Cassius saw the familiar torches and the elaborate carvings on the walls.

"Yes, just behind the Giant's throne. Thorne nodded, "Surprise, right?"

"The most dangerous place, but also the safest place. Absolutely. Kasiu smiled wryly and went to get the dagger, only to find that the scabbard was empty.

Nora gritted her teeth, raised Kasiu's dagger, and said viciously, "My home is ruined!" and she lunged at the arm of the giant that reached in, stabbing it hard.

The giant screamed and waved his hand, Nora was thrown against the wall, and Kashew picked her up and said to Thorne, "Let's run out!"

"Run, where can you run?" Thorne could say, as the sledgehammer smashed through the walls of the cave.

"Where did you get in and out?" said Cassiu, exclaiming, "Take us out." ”

"No way. The way out was smashed. Thorne cowered in a corner, "We're going to die." ”

The cracks in the walls of the cave grew larger and wider, and with each swing of the stone hammer, dirt and broken branches were splashed. The light is getting brighter and brighter. Cassius could see the giant's face, an ugly face with bulging canine teeth and eyes as big as brass bells.

"Nora, take my sword!Thorne, pick up your sword, protect Nora!I'll go down first!" Cassius turned his shield into a short sword, and the giant's hand waved, and he saw the right moment and was the first to jump out of the cave.

He gripped the dagger with both hands and plunged into the giant's shoulder.

The giant screamed, his right hand slapped over, he turned his sword into a whip, and stepped on the giant's back. The tip of the whip was still sunk in his shoulder, and Cassius slid down, dodging the giant's blow to the shoulder.

The giant grabbed the whip and pulled them out, taking the muscles from his shoulders with them. The giant roared in pain and threw the whip to the ground. As he was about to reach the ground, Cassius dropped his whip, curled up, and fell to the ground.

"Come on, ugly!" Cassius prayed not to be heard by the other giants, who were now unarmed and threw his whip far away.

After the muscles and cartilage of the right shoulder were pulled out, the giant's right hand was wasted. Cassius ran to the giant's right, dodging the giant's footsteps.

The giant turned around and chased after him. When Kasiu was still some distance away from the whip, the giant, holding the stone hammer in his left hand, smashed it down. The shockwave knocked Kasiu to the ground.

"Cassiu!" Nora shouted, jumping down. She deftly jumped onto the giant's shoulder and plunged her sword into the giant's neck. When the sword was drawn, blood spurted all over her.

When the giant covered his neck, Nora jumped on the giant's back, grabbed the giant by the hair, and plunged her sword into the giant's waist. The giant jumped and screamed, and Nora clutched her sword, her whole body swinging in the air.

Kasiu picked up the whip, turning it back into a dagger and said, "Be careful, Nora!" and he rushed forward and slashed at the giant's ankle. The giant kicked him away.

Cassius rolled around on the ground a few times, and he struggled to his feet, seeing Nora's pale face and eyes closed.

The kid was scared. Cassiu's mind remembered the little girl who had died tragically many years ago. No, I'm not going to let Nora die. He shouted, forcibly summoning the earth elemental, and the ground raised a small hill: "Jump down!"

Nora slid down the hill, tumbled a few laps, and returned to the ground.

The giant was covered in blood, and he screamed, fell to his knees, and lay heavily on the ground.

Thorne rushed down the uphill and joined up with Cassius and Nora.

Cassius drew the short sword from the giant's body, gasped, and said, "Child, I swear, I won't let you die. ”

Nora gives Cassius a slap in the face: "I'm not a kid!" After the fight, Nora gives Cassius a hug.

At this moment, footsteps were heard in the palace of the King of Giants. Noisy and yelling.

"We've got to go!" Cassius was familiar with, "go out through the gate, up the stairs, and when you get out, you're outside." ”

"What about the pursuers?" asked Thorne.

Kasiu looked around, and the torches at the entrance of the palace were flickering. There's no bug like that here. He had an idea. He urged Thorne and Nora to the top of the staircase, turning it into a ramp so that they didn't have to climb up the stairs like they had last time.

If my mana was enough last time, if I had mustered up the courage last time, maybe I could have saved more people. Cassius was remorseful, but he didn't have time to think about it, he turned his two short swords into greatswords and cut off the lower ends of the torches, and the huge brazier made a deafening sound.

He forcibly summoned the fire elemental again, and when he was close to the staircase, a fire ignited for a while.

"Run, go down the steep slope!" he found that his mana was still there, "I'm broken!"

Suddenly, his eyes went dark and he lost consciousness for a while. Nora held him up and said, "I won't leave you behind!"

Cassius finally saw that Nora was so strong that she pushed open a crack in the empty door of the Giant's Cave, just enough to get them out sideways.

Smelling the fresh air he hadn't seen for a long time, seeing the dark night sky, and hearing the unknown chirping of birds, Cassiu was sure that he had finally walked out of the Giant's Cave.
