it! What's the situation?!

The violent bumps made everything in front of him fall backwards, and Du Yuhan didn't understand the situation yet, but he could only hear a deafening roar behind him. Subconsciously bent over and rolled on his side, and the next moment, the towering ancient tree broke off and fell straight in front of him.

Bang! β€”β€”

The flying sand and rocks covered the sky and the sun, and before he could stand firmly, there was another disturbing sound of collapse in his ears. As accurate as a calculation, every time he landed, he always passed by, and if he hadn't reacted fast enough, he would have been flattened. The minutes seemed as long as centuries, until the shaking of the earth subsided and the earth-shattering roar subsided.

Accompanied by the falling leaves flying in the sky, except for the rustle of the cyclone, there was silence all around. The dog, which had returned to its hairball state, emerged from the pile of fallen leaves, shook the wood pieces clean, and squeaked and jumped to the owner's side. And Du Yuhan looked around the four fields vigilantly, and made sure that there was nothing unusual, so he slowly walked out.

The grass was a mess, and the stout broken wood fell to the ground, and he looked around, and found that Reilly and the gray wolf were long gone. After waiting for a long time, he gradually calmed down the surging fighting qi in his body, until the imprint fluctuations completely disappeared, and then he called Kevin in the shadows.

The first thing Kevin did when he appeared was to pull Du Yuhan up and down for a round of inspections, and to make sure that they were just flesh wounds, so that he could be completely relieved.

"Don't worry, I'm fine." The nervousness of his lover has long been strange, Du Yuhan patted the crumbs on his body, "What happened just now?" ”

Although he was fighting fiercely just now, he was somewhat sensitive to the situation around him. Fangcai's earthquake is obviously the ghost of the node, but Reilly, who is being pressed by himself step by step, will definitely not have time to operate, and there are definitely third-party forces who have joined the battle circle.

And Kevin's answer confirms this.

"So, someone wants to take advantage of the fire?" Du Yuhan skillfully re-erected the tent.

The hand that slapped the quilt paused, and Kevin pondered for a moment, "It's better to say that it's a robbery while it's hot, but it's better to help." ”

"Why?"

"I don't think that a person who wants to take advantage will desperately help people get out of trouble."

"Hmm...... So, did Reilly form an alliance with the others? ”

Although the picture of the lonely ice cube face in alliance with other people is so beautiful that Du Yuhan can't bear to look at it directly, but now it seems that this explanation seems to be the most appropriate.

Frowning and thinking for a long time, Kevin wanted to refute but couldn't find a clue. Because he was worried about Du Yuhan's safety, he used ten percent of his power in the secret speech technique just now, but even so, the man still crushed the node unwaveringly. It is highly debatable how the so-called "alliance" will help.

Du Yuhan, on the other side, was thinking about more important issues.

As far as he knows, four players have been defeated now, and if you don't count Reilly, there are only a maximum of two players left, and he has no record, so he is at an absolute disadvantage no matter how you look at it......

Du Yuhan scratched the top of his head irritably.

It seems that we must hurry up and find an exit.

After a while, the two decided to rest early and set off early tomorrow to explore the map.

*****

Tick – tick – tick –

The dark cave was cold and damp, the water on the top of the cave fell to the ground, and the ethereal sound of dripping water made the cave even more empty, and a cold air seemed to flood from the ground and seep straight into people's hearts.

At the end of the cavern there was a faint glow of fire, and a handsome man with a pale face lay on the ground, although his back was covered with thick cotton wool, and from his shivering body, the cold humidity made it hardly useful.

The robe on his body was cut in a mess, revealing shocking wounds - the original porcelain white and smooth skin seemed to have been drained of water at the moment, becoming dry and sallow, and in some places it was even cracked, oozing dark red blood. Under the paper-like skin, the green tendons are criss-crossed, and even the gray muscles underneath can be seen clearly.

Reilly poured the wound medicine over the clean gauze surface and pressed it gently on Rayleigh's open chest. Every time the unconscious man frowned and snorted, his face became even more ugly.

After quickly treating all the wounds and gently tucking the corners of the quilt for the other party, he raised his trembling hand and breathed a sigh of relief. However, he knew very well that the most powerful thing about the Dark Word Technique was its powerful continuous corrosive energy, and the measures he was taking now were only to suspend the pain and cure it completely, and only the Holy Light Technique of the high-level priest could completely cure it.

But in this situation, where can he find a high-ranking priest?

The warm orange light shone on Rayleigh's bloodless face, flickering and dimming. Reilly sat by the fire with his knees folded and was silent for a long time before muttering to himself.

"Idiot."

In that situation just now, because of the protection of the mark, even if he can't dodge, he will never be injured multiple times, and he doesn't need to expose his identity to relieve himself, I believe Rayleigh himself understands it very well.

But he still chose to rescue, and even fell into a wound.

In the final analysis, it's because of yourself-

It's the task, he can't lose, he definitely can't lose.

So in desperation, Rayleigh jumped out and risked his life to create a chance for him to escape.

Reilly sighed, this man always does things without thinking, and his personality is reckless and annoying. Acting naΓ―vely and freewheeling, and not knowing how to take into account the overall situation. It's been like this since I was a child, and I haven't matured when I grow up.

Just like the first time we met-

According to the arrangement of the orphanage, it was his turn to be on duty today, and he dragged a bucket of filth with great difficulty to take it and dump it, but as soon as he came out of the back door, he heard a hissing howl.

"I'm not going, I'm not going! You let go of me! You're the bad guys! "A little boy of four or five years old was surrounded by two or three powerful adults, and he resisted with his hands and feet.

"Rayleigh, didn't you always say you wanted a new home? Now that the head of the regiment wants to adopt you as an adopted son, don't you have a new father? A kind middle-aged woman smiled comfortingly, but her hands were tightly gripping the boy's tiny arm.

"Phew! Who's the new dad! I don't want such a father! The boy angrily withdrew his arm, and five red and swollen fingerprints were clearly printed on his fair little face, "No wonder you gave me new clothes and delicious food yesterday, you wanted to sell me!" You're a bad guy too! ”

The woman's face turned pale for a while, but in the end she suppressed her anger and comforted her.

"Stinky boy! It's your blessing that our head of the regiment has taken a fancy to you, don't toast and don't eat and drink! The patient-exhausted man glared at the boy viciously, grabbed the other man's collar with one hand, and tried to hug him directly into the carriage.

Seeing that there was no way to escape, the boy opened his throat and shouted for help in despair, "Help! Kill! Someone has abducted and sold children! ”

Just as they were about to step out of the gate, there was a bang, and foul-smelling sewage fell from the sky.

"Ahh ——”

"! What is it?! ”

"Who the fuck did that?!"

"Ahh Adults are right, I'm sorry! ”

"Gross-"

The little boy took advantage of the chaos to escape, and the adopter finally had to leave with a filth and scolding. It didn't take long for the initiator himself to be severely taught a lesson and locked up in confinement.

Touching his shriveled belly, he curled up into a small ball and curled up in a corner to resist the seeping cold. He thought that tonight would pass so peacefully, but who expected that late at night, an uninvited guest actually came.

Surprised to see the other party struggling to pull in the high window, he realized that it was actually a little boy in the daytime.

"Hey! You okay? With his petite stature, the boy jumped in through the window with agility.

"You-"

"Thank you so much today, if it weren't for you, I would have fallen into the wrong hands."

"Hmm."

"Anyway, your trick of the goddess is really creative, I like it so much! It's just that the smell is a little unpleasant. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

"Oh yes, are you hungry? I'm guessing you didn't have anything to eat at night, so I brought you bread. ”

With that, the boy carefully pulled out the palm-sized bread from his bosom, but after hours of hiding, some of it had broken up into crumbs, "Well, it doesn't look good, but I promise it was made yesterday, and it's absolutely fresh!" ”

He didn't speak, only stared at the other party hesitantly, but the child couldn't resist the hungry stomach after all, so he slowly took it and chewed slowly.

Seeing that he ate sweetly, the boy stared at the bread in silence.

Sensing the other party's gaze, he hesitated, "Do you want to eat?" ”

"No, no, no, I'm full, I've had too much for dinner!" The boy shook his head vigorously and hiccuped in a matter-of-fact manner.

He didn't say anything, just broke half of it and handed it over.

"You, don't you really want to eat?" Looking at him timidly, the boy swallowed as he looked at the soft and yellowish bread, and coughed a few times, "Since you can't finish eating, then I'll reluctantly help you eat a little!" ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

After untying the bread in three or two, the two children leaned against the wall and chattered, "How is it?" I'll just say it's delicious, right? You don't know, I stole it from the little fat man's dinner, and he actually cried his nose, what a shame! ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

The amount of food in the orphanage was very small, and the children who were in the developing stage were definitely not enough to eat, and he suddenly felt a sense of guilt.

"By the way, my name is Rayleigh, what's your name?"

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Number forty-six. ”

"What?"

"I don't have a name, they all call me Forty-Six." With that, he lowered his head, his little hands clenching the corners of his dirty clothes.

For as long as he can remember, he has been in an orphanage, he doesn't know who his biological parents are, he doesn't know where he was born, he doesn't know his name, he doesn't know his birthday, he only knows the number given to him by his aunt - number forty-six.

He was very envious of the children who had names, because those names were chosen by their parents. A child without a name means that he has no father or mother, and will be ostracized and squeezed by others in the hospital.

Children are as innocent as a blank sheet of paper, but sometimes they are also very cruel. They can only keep tearing other people's wounds to make them appear different, at least they have names.

Once, he also asked his aunt for a name. But the aunt said that the name can only be taken by the parents, and if you want your own name, you should be an obedient baby, and when someone adopts herself, you can have a name.

So, he worked hard to be a good baby, just looking forward to one day, he could have his own name.

As he gradually grew older, the little friends around him were adopted away one by one, but because of his mutualistic personality, many adopters didn't even want to look at him.

Seeing that he was depressed, Rayleigh frowned, "Isn't that just a name?" What's so hard about that? Shall I get one for you? ”

He opened his mouth in surprise, "But, but this can only be done by the parentsβ€”"

"Dwarf oil, don't be so rigid!" Patting him the shoulder, Rayleigh touched his chin, "Hmm...... That's fine, my name is Rayleigh, and you'll be called Reilly! ”

Stunned for a moment, he muttered, "...... Riley? ”

"Hmmm! How? There's a level to the name, right? Rayleigh puffed out his chest proudly.

Riley...... Riley......

He silently recited it a few times, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously curved.

Reilly, my name is Reilly......

Seeing him smile, Rayleigh rolled his eyes and smiled slyly, "I gave you your name, and you will repay me." From today onwards, you will be my brother! ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Why? ”

"No reason! Auntie said, my brother wants to protect my brother, you must protect me! ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

"What?! You don't agree? If you don't promise, I'll take it back! Rayleigh yelled with fangs and claws.

He sighed helplessly, a gentle smile on his condensed face.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Good. ”

*****

"Hmm......"

The memory was awakened by a painful cry, and Reilly hurriedly leaned in to check it. "How?"
