Chapter 3, return to the city to restore life
Jack led the party back along the established route. Since the www.biquge.info is either downhill or flat when you go back, you don't need a coolie dragon like the Wyverns to pull the hovercar, and each car only needs two people to push it.
Although the two can be pushed, it is also very difficult to control the direction under the huge weight. In other words, the team did not walk very fast.
Duroc ran down the hill with the girl in front of him, and the foot of the hill was littered with piles of rubble, and the girl searched along the curb like crazy, calling out her sister's name.
Duroc didn't say anything, just silently followed her all the way.
But all the way down, she didn't find her sister. The girl sat in front of a pool of blood, looking helplessly at Duroc.
Duroc looked at the girl in the same way, "Girl, your sister... Possibly..."
"No way! Sister won't die!" the girl began to growl.
Suddenly, she cried in a low voice: "She told me that we would definitely be able to escape." β
"No! I mean, your sister might have left here!"
The girl didn't speak again, just kept bowing her head and crying.
After about ten minutes, Duroc tried to ask, "We... Let's go!"
The girl raised her head and looked at Duroc with moist eyes: "It's impossible for my sister to go by herself, she ......"
"What's wrong?"
"My sister stabbed herself in the chest with a hairpin, and the dragon thought she was dead... She was... It was thrown out of the car by the Wyvern. The girl began to cry again.
Suddenly, Duroc's mind conjured up images of his mother, who had died in front of him. It was as if the heart had been pierced by the stingers of thousands of poisonous bees, and tears began to flow from the corners of the eyes.
He tried not to let the tears flow. He never shed a single tear in three years, because he had vowed at that time that he would never cry again, that he would not be cowardly again.
The body is like being fixed by something, and it can't move. Duroc took a deep breath to calm himself.
Then he patted the girl on the shoulder and said, "I know where your sister might be!"
"Really?"
Duroc led the girl to a ravine not far from the bloodstain. Although the ravine in front of you is not deep, the moonlight does not shine into the bottom of the ravine at night. What lies beneath the ravine is not clear.
Duroc pulled out his tongue of fire from his bosom and blew. Slowly descend to the bottom of the ravine.
In the faint light of the fire, Duroc seemed to see a man lying on the ground. He approached slowly, approaching the man with his tongue of fire.
The man was already bloodstained, lying on a hard stone under the ravine.
Although he already knew the result, Duroc gently touched the man's pulse. The man was dead, and her body was cold on the cold ground.
Duroc carried the man on his back, and at this point the tongue of fire burned out.
After Duroc and the others got used to the darkness of the ravine, they climbed up the ravine.
The girl in the ravine waited anxiously, and when she saw Duroc coming up, she immediately rushed forward.
"Sister!"
Duroc laid the man flat on the ground. The girl kept shaking her sister and screaming.
Duroc didn't know what to say for a moment, just watched quietly as the girl called out to her sister.
Duroc clearly knew that he couldn't delay any longer, he picked up the girl and said softly, "Your sister, it's already ...... Gone!"
Suddenly, as if frozen, the girl stopped there and did not speak.
"Let your sister be buried in peace!" Although I don't want to say it, I still have to do it for the sake of the overall situation.
The girl looked at her bloodstained sister, and then wiped the dried blood off her sister's face with her sleeve.
"Can you help me bring my sister back?" the girl asked Duroc suddenly.
Duroc took out his pocket watch, calculated the time, and said, "Yes, but we have to cut corners, it may be dangerous!"
The girl wiped away her tears and said, "Well, my sister likes the wild chrysanthemum garden in my hometown, and I must bury my sister in that wild chrysanthemum garden!"
Duroc put the girl's sister on his back and said, "We need to hurry up!"
"Hmm!"
Although she was still immersed in the back pain of losing her sister, the girl followed Duroc firmly and quickly left Mount Pierce.
The fifth team was passing through a col, and Jack, the leader of the team, looked at the pocket watch in his hand, and it was already 9:50. The team has completely left the territory of the dragons, and it will take another half an hour to return to Moffett. At this time, Duroc had not yet caught up with him, and Jack couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
Iron Claw rushed from the back of the group to the front and patted Jack on the shoulder, also with an anxious look.
Knowing that he wanted to ask Duroc why he hadn't come back yet, Jack replied, "Don't worry!
Iron Claw returned to the end of the line, holding the hovercar.
Along the col, there is a small stream, the water is not deep. Because of the hidden shrubs, the creek is not well spotted.
Suddenly, there was the sound of rushing water in the stream.
Everyone was alert, their eyes focused on the direction the voice was coming from.
"Jack!
Two people emerged from the bushes beside the stream, Duroc and the girl.
As Duroc approached, Jack realized that he was being carried on his back. Jack withdrew the knife that he had half-drawn because of nervousness, let out a long sigh of relief, and said, "Locke, what's wrong?" Jack pointed to the man on Duroc's back.
Duroc didn't answer, but turned to the girl next to him: "You go and rest!
The girl looked at her sister, then at Duroc, nodded slightly, and walked to the final prisoner cart.
Duroc waited for the girl to get into the car before whispering to Jack, "It's not going to work anymore." β
"And you're stillβ" Jack said in some surprise
"Don't say it! let's go back to the city!" Duroc didn't want to explain too much.
Jack shook his head and helped the man on Duroc's back and put it on his back.
In less than half an hour, the team was back at Moffitt, in front of the magnificent Moffigt gates. Jack shouted, "Jason!"
Then an officer in his thirties poked out of the wall and saw that it was Jack. Shouting behind him, "Open the door!"
Then the vermilion gate opened between the white walls, and the procession entered the city of Moffitt.
As soon as he entered the city, Officer Jason, who had just been at the city gate, came over.
"Locke!"
Duroc stopped: "Officer Jason, is there something wrong?"
Jason stood straight in front of Duroc, "Officer Elena said, if you see you passing by, let me inform you to go to the Rimming Castle." The Black Cliff Leader is also there!"
"Got it!" replied Duroc politely.
"No thanks! this is the task that Officer Erena gave me!" Jason said and returned to the castle tower.
Duroc instructed Jack to move the goods to a temporary storage place and place those in the prison van. He took off his bloodstained cloak and headed to Jieming Castle.
The castle is the personal residence of the lord of the city, Basica, a very grand building, with a huge fountain in the main courtyard of the castle and green meadows on both sides. Beautiful and typical of the streamlined white marble building of Moffett.
Since the first cooperation between Black Cliff and the City Lord three years ago, almost every time the Dragon Slayer has reported to the City Lord on all matters, and this time it was the same.
Duroc stood in front of the iron gate in the castle's forecourt and showed the token to the doorman, who was dressed in white armor and opened the iron door.
Duroc walked in and followed his previous experience to a room on the east side of the castle.
Duroc knocked on the mahogany door to the room, waiting for a response.
"Please come in!"
Pushing open the heavy mahogany door, there were three people talking in the room.
The three of them are the city lord Basica, the city defense officer Erina, and the Black Cliff.
The lord of the city, Basekka, sat in the middle seat, wearing a black armor. His physiognomy always gives a sense of majesty.
Elena is the commander-in-chief of the city defense officers, and in Moffite, except for the city lord Basica, only Elena can command all the city defense forces. She was a very important person for the lord of the city, and although she was a woman, she was by no means inferior to any good male officer.
Today, she wears the same white armor as all Moffett soldiers, except that she wears the rank of officer-in-chief pinned to her chest.
When Black Cliff saw Duroc coming in, he sharply found the blood stains on his body from the girl's sister, and frowned: "Locke, are you injured?"
Duroc hurriedly replied, "No! It's someone else's blood." Mission accomplished!"
Black Cliff breathed a sigh of relief, and then the city lord said, "Duroc, right!"
"Yes! City Lord!" Duroc straightened up
The city lord smiled and said, "Go and sit down next to it!"
"Thank you, City Lord!"
Duroc walked over to the chair next to Blackcliff and sat down, with Elena sitting across from him.
The City Lord got up from his seat, walked between Duroc and Elena, and said to Black Cliff, "I'm going to discuss the question just now. β;
