Chapter 43: The Human Heart
Herara was speechless by Helsing's words, and the pain of the wound on her body seemed to make her a little unconscious, and she watched Helsing's eyes gradually develop murderous intent.
But before she could strike, a knife slashed at the back of her neck, and Herara collapsed into the arms of a man.
Yeager slowly crouched down with Herara in his arms, then handed her over to the rest of the people and her best summer, and watched the people in the castle tower beside him make a big salute. "Thank you for the rescue, this Ice Demon Bear has been chasing us for almost a week, so my companion's reaction will be a little excessive, please forgive me, my name is Yeagle, these are all my team members, I don't know where they come from, what do you call them?"
Hearing Yager's explanation, the faces of the people in the sky guard looked better, and Lin Ziyue looked at Yeeger and remembered the scene of Fang just escaping from the snow and took a half step forward: "We are from Huayu, Captain Jager, is it convenient to borrow a step to speak?"
At this moment, whether in terms of strength or numbers, Lin Ziyue and his party who suddenly appeared were stronger than Jaeger's team, and if they wanted to attack themselves, they would not be able to use such a means.
Thinking of this, Yeager dropped the broken sword that was only half cut in his hand, and then hugged his aching abdomen and followed Lin Zi a few steps away.
"It's Captain Yeager who flew out of the ridge just now, since he saw us negotiating with the Ice Demon Bear, why didn't he come forward to meet us?" Lin Ziyue quietly planted a layer of wind elements around the two of them, isolating their voices from the outside world, and he didn't worry that the other members of Yeager could hear them.
Yeager frowned and was silent for a moment: "At that time, the distance was too far, I don't know what you communicated with the Ice Demon Bear, and the direction it left was the direction in which my team members were hiding before, and I was eager to save people..."
Lin Ziyue nodded, what Yeager said was not unreasonable: "Looking at the strength of your team, even if you encounter the Ice Demon Bear, even if you can't easily defeat it, it won't be so embarrassing, and it seems that you have lost a team member?"
"It's all to blame on the damn Association of Strangers!" Jaeger gritted his teeth and said, as if he had touched the injury in his abdomen, making him gasp and chill: "Originally, we had completed our mission a week ago and were ready to leave, but when we came down from the snow peak and climbed over this second mountain, we were unprepared and encountered the Ice Demon Bear that was not mentioned at all in the information given by the Association. ”
Jaeger's eyes dimmed a little, his team of Strangers was formed seven years ago in a chance multiplayer mission, and several people hit it off so they formed a fixed team.
Among the tens of millions of Abilities in Huayu, the strength can only be regarded as the middle and lower, but the completion rate of the tasks in the past few years is extremely high, so everyone has accumulated a lot of wealth, and later took on tasks in the Association of Abilities in order to hone their strength, and it was not until after the incident four years ago that it slowly changed its taste.
Lin Ziyue was stunned for a moment, what Yeager said and what Yun Yiyi said can also be compared, because this group of ice demon bears migrated here only a month ago, and the Association of Strangers should have no way of knowing this news: "Then Captain Yagele, what are your plans next?"
Yeager was silent for a moment, and then exhaled a breath of turbidity: "What else, we will go out of the mountain after about a day or two of repairing, and then go back to Huayu Lingnan to find the Association of Strangers to give an explanation, as for Claire's revenge, if I can break through to the A-level in the future, I will come back to find this Ice Demon Bear." ”
Revenge... Hearing this, Lin Ziyue shook his head helplessly, but he didn't say anything to stop Yager, but just took out enough energy potion from the bracelet for them to eat for three or five days: "There is only so much we can help, please be careful when you go out of the mountain." ”
Seeing the energy potion in Lin Ziyue's hand, Yeager first planned to refuse, but changed his mind
Thinking about it, although there was a lot of game in this Ze Cobalt Mountain, they didn't dare to use their abilities to capture or cook on fire, as for the energy potion they carried had been exhausted a week ago, after he struggled again and again, he still took it from Lin Ziyue's hand with gratitude, and then put it into his bracelet.
After the energy potion, the two of them walked towards the others, but a trace of struggle flashed in the eyes of Yeagle, who was walking on Lin Ziyue's side.
Xiao Qin, the Chen Huanyu brothers and others who were standing in place watched Lin Ziyue and the captain slowly come back from not far away, and Xia frowned and looked at the people around him, always feeling a little familiar.
"Linzi, how's it going?" When Lin Ziyue returned to his side, Hai Xin asked casually, and when he heard Hai Xin's inquiry, Xia had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and suddenly remembered the identity of the group of people in front of him.
"I remember! You are Lin Ziyue! You are Hai Xin! And Xiao Tunan! Xiao Yufei... You're from the Castle Tower! I've seen your finals in the Big Ten on the Tensham!" Summer exclaimed suddenly.
Hearing Xia call out the names of the people in front of him like a few family treasures, a hint of surprise flashed in the eyes of the other people in Jayger's team, although they hadn't seen this year's academy competition, but the names of the top ten were still thunderous, which could explain why several people could have such strength.
Hearing Summer's exclamation, the others were stunned, but they didn't expect to be recognized, but this also saved them from spending any more time explaining their identities, so they didn't deny it, just smiled and nodded towards Summer.
Lin Ziyue turned his head and asked in Hai Xin's ear, Hai Xin turned his head to look at Yun Yiyi, and the two didn't know what to say, and then nodded at him.
Seeing that he had received the approval of the Shuiyun clan, Lin Ziyue was relieved: "Everyone, this second snow mountain is safe under the snow line for the time being, you can repair it by yourself and then go out of the mountain, as for we still have a task to do, then don't do it." ”
Hearing this, Yeager asked Summer to put down Herara temporarily, and took the rest of his team to Lin Ziyue and his party to salute: "Captain Lin, thank you for your help, although our strength is mediocre, we still have a certain network in Lingnan, if there is a place where we need help in the future, we will definitely help!"
Hearing that a few people were actually from Lingnan, Xiao Tunan and Xiao Yufei showed a smile in their eyes, Lin Ziyue did not avoid it, accepted this salute, and then hugged his hand and replied with everyone, and disappeared on the snow in a moment.
...
It wasn't until everyone walked away that Yeager and his party sat down on the ground as if they had just woken up from a big dream, although they didn't know why Lin Ziyue said that this place was safe for the time being, but since they were able to negotiate with the ice giant bear before, they wanted to have the confidence to say this, but for the sake of safety, a few people immediately left the empty snow land that was now helpless in all directions, returned to the foot of the second snow mountain, and found a cave to really let go of the heart that had been hanging for days.
Three days later, in the midst of another heavy snowfall, Yeager and his team finally walked out of Zecobalt Mountain, but this heavy snow was because of a cold air a few days ago, not the ability of the Ice Bear King, in the heavy snow, Yeager helped the comatose summer and the four team members behind him walked silently in the woods at the foot of the Zecobalt Mountain, and there was no Herala in the team.
"Don't tell anyone about those people at the castle tower. Yeager had a hoarse voice and bloodshot eyes, and what had happened in the past few days had brought him to the brink of collapse. "This is our last mission, so let's stop here..."Jaeger didn't look back, but continued to walk step by step with Summer.
Chen Huanyu and Chen Haohan looked at the back of Yeager in front of them in silence, and suddenly felt a little strange, or he had become strange when he made that decision a few days ago.
summer
When they woke up, it was already the second day after everyone had left the Zecobalt Mountain Range, and at this moment, they were still less than two hundred kilometers away from the city wall of Rong City.
"Brother-in-law, where's Herara?!" When Summer woke up, Yeager and his party were still flying in the forest, and Yeager had already removed the armor on his body, so that Summer could sleep more comfortably behind him.
When he woke up, he saw that there were only four other people behind him, and Herala was nowhere to be found, and there was no vast mountain around, only a dense forest at his feet, and Summer instantly reacted that they had left the Zecobalt Mountains, ignoring the wound that pulled his throat when he spoke, and asked angrily.
"Wake up. Jaeger heard a voice from behind him, and said the only word in the past few days, and his voice was hoarse, as if he had been thirsty for dozens of days.
"I ask you what about Herara!" Summer struggled on Jaager's back, and although he had been awakened from a deep sleep for a few days, he was still seriously injured, so the struggle seemed a little weak.
Yeager didn't look back, nor did he slow down: "There was an avalanche on the last day of leaving Zecobalt, and Lala didn't survive. ”
Hearing this, there was infinite anger in Summer's eyes: "Brother-in-law, I want to listen to the truth! What happened after Lala woke up and injured me that day?!"
Chen Haohan behind Yeager had a trace of unbearability in his eyes: "Summer, don't make trouble, it really happened to be an avalanche that day, and your brother-in-law was also seriously injured in order to save Lala." ”
"Why was it just after I was injured and unconscious?!Why was it just an avalanche?!Why did you say it?" Jaeger actually stopped flying and landed on the ground, interrupting what he had not finished speaking.
He put down the summer behind him after he landed, and then turned around, his face full of tiredness.
"You just woke up in the summer, so I'll emphasize to you again, this trip to Zecobalt Mountain, the two team members we lost were because of that Ice Demon Bear, we have never met any students from the Sky Guard Academy, do you understand?" Speaking of this, a trace of ruthlessness flashed in Jaeger's eyes: "If you go back to the city wall, you dare to say anything nonsense, don't blame me for personally sending you to the second department!"
Summer was stunned, he had never seen Yaeger like this since his sister died, and there was anger in his eyes, as well as fear.
On that day, there were only eight people in Lin Ziyue's team, as well as five water clouded leopards, a night spirit, and a flame horse, and when they met that day, there were eleven people in the team.
And later, Jaeger found the direction they left, and only found the footprints left by the four water clouded leopards, all of which showed that three of the team were incarnated by alien beasts, and the alien beasts that could incarnate into humans, except for demon beasts, Jaeger couldn't think of any other possibilities.
Although he didn't directly tell his teammates about his conjecture, Herara seemed to sense something between his words, because of Helsing's release of the Ice Demon Bear, she completely ignored the Heavenly Guard to save them from the bear's kiss, and insisted on telling Yeager to the Second Federal Section after returning to China.
"Jaeger, Herala is my sister's friend for seven or eight years, you really can do it! Are you worthy of my sister?!" Summer stretched out his hand and punched Jaeger in the face, but he couldn't shake him in the slightest, and even with his current strength, he couldn't even leave a red mark on Jaeger's face.
This punch also seemed to make Jaeger sober up a little, he squinted at Summer, and just said sorry in his heart, Helara's temper he knew too well, if she was allowed to return to Huayu, I am afraid that this matter would never end well, for the sake of the other six people in the team, she could only be buried under the 10,000 tons of snow in Zecobalt Mountain, he knew what a person who had lost his lover would do under anger, he knew such feelings too well.
So he didn't dare to challenge people's hearts, and he didn't dare to score half a point.
