Chapter 822

When Amphinis's hands finally lifted from the pool of blood in front of him, Bai Shao on the other side of the stone platform could no longer maintain a standing position. The defector, pale, leaned against the edge of the stone wall, weakly trying to stop the bleeding from his wrist. Seeing that Old Ai Lu noticed him, the white-clothed hunter smiled miserably: "To be honest, I don't have any strength at all, if you want to tie me up again, just take advantage of it now, I won't resist." ”

"You've become like this, and if you continue to block the blood supply to your hand, you won't want to save that hand." Amphinis wiped the blood from his arms and body with the extra bandage, and there was no emotion in his tone, "When it's all over, I still need it to sign the confession, you don't want to fool it so easily." ”

"Hey! That guy's survival is also the result of our joint efforts. Even if you don't let me go, at least don't put on such a cold face, right? The defection hunter shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly.

The stone square platform had been cleared, and Magnini, who was lying on it, was wearing an inner lining that had been removed from Luo Pingyang's hunting suit, and his chest and abdomen were exposed, revealing the layers of bandages inside that looked like primeval corpses. The gauze on his right rib collapsed slightly, and although he was angry, the injury was not out of danger, but there was no sign of further deterioration.

Blood seeped into the ground through the cracks in the fine sand, staining the ground into an irregular pale red area, and in the middle lay a fist-sized gray-white crystal, cut from the wounded. In the first few seconds, the surface of the foreign object was still clinging to a large piece of flesh belonging to the dragonman, but in a few breaths, the crystal seemed to be shocked to lose its host, and scrambled to devour the remaining flesh red, not even sparing the blood beads flowing on the surface.

Today's crystal clusters are shiny and translucent, and there is not a trace of blood stained on the surface, but it is better to say that the things that stick to it have long since assimilated into gray-white crystals of unknown nature according to their original shapes. The texture of the flesh and blood on the crystals, the blood vessels buried deep inside, and even the remaining marks of the blood flow are clearly visible, and at first glance it looks like some kind of aristocratic handicraft with intricately carved and obscure meanings. Without Fang Cai's rescue, no one could have imagined that this delicate gadget almost became the culprit who took a life.

"I still can't believe it......" Looking at the sleeping dragon village chief, Amphinis couldn't help but feel a sense of absurdity in his heart. As long as more than one-sixteenth of the half-blood's bloodline belongs to the Dragonmen, the blood will have very different properties from pure-blood humans. The blood of ordinary people is extradited in, and in a moment or three, it will lose its vitality in front of the domineering dragon blood, become neither helpful nor toxic, and then be automatically expelled by the body. Seeing Bai Shao's blood gurgling into Magnini's body, old Ailu didn't expect that such a chaotic rescue method would really work: "When you were still in the Nightmare, you never mentioned that you had dragonman blood in you. ”

"Because I really wasn't there at that time."

"Skeleton Dragon?" Old Ailu's mind flowed and thought of a possibility.

"It took several years and a lot of researchers to organize it, but I still don't know what that big octopus did to me." The white-clothed hunter nodded, counting as an acknowledgement. He used his teeth to help tie the last knot in the gauze, and said indistinctly, "Now the characteristics of my blood are exactly the same as those of the dragonman. Privately, I thought it was the Dragon's compensation for nearly killing me. ”

"This can't be ......" Six-star Ailu lifted her chin and shook her head repeatedly, "The bloodline is innately determined, and no one can take the initiative to change it after birth." ”

"Are you sure?" Bai Shao moved his wrist, raised his head and glanced at the orc meaningfully, "You've already seen it once, right?" On the 'experiment' of changing the bloodline. Speaking of which, the survivors of that incident were well taken in by your students in the hunting group. ”

Amphinis was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses, his pupils shrank, and his flesh palm slammed on the stone wall with a "bang": "You call that an experiment?" Do you know how many people died in that disaster? ”

Old Ailu's eyes were full of murderous intent, and he took off the giant boomerang behind him and strode towards Bai Shao. Seeing that he seemed to have touched Amphinis's scales, the white-clothed hunter's heart trembled, and he subconsciously jumped to the side, forgetting that he was still in the weakness after crossing the blood.

With too much force, the defector's ears buzzed, and a little golden light appeared in front of him, and he collapsed to the ground weakly. He had to raise an arm in front of him, and gasped sharply, "Hell! Anfi ...... That's not me! ”

After a long time of not feeling Amphinis's attack fall on him, Bai Shao opened his eyes, he sat up straight, and explained at a faster pace: "Emmon is still in the prison of the Knights, and I have nothing to hide. ”

"It's true that the Eyes of Death provided Aemon with the materials and techniques, but we had no idea that he would support that kind of research until the farce." Mentioning this, Bai Shao couldn't hide his emotional anger, "Ah Yang took a fancy to the rigor and obedience of that Wang Li hunter, but he didn't expect him to be a complete madman behind people. ”

"He's probably read the research report on my rewritten bloodline, and he wants to recreate it with ancient technology. But those guys don't understand, and no one can copy something that hasn't been understood yet. Wang Li's hunting group was not greedy enough, and in the end, they only got a defective product. The side effects of the potion were much more severe than expected, not only wasting a lot of precious materials, but also nearly ruining our big things. ”

Six-star Ailu's footsteps did not stop, and the boomerang was still in his hand: "That can't be an excuse for you to stay out of the matter." ”

"I didn't mean that, Anfi." Bai Shao lay down on his back, resisting the symptoms of grogginess under anemia, and said in a low voice, "I heard what happened to Rum's seniors. ”

"Since the time of the Dragonmares, my predecessors have been the most powerful and upright hunters I have ever met. He shouldn't have been involved in that day's battle, and he shouldn't have ended like that. The white-clothed hunter was silent for a few moments, and then said slowly, "If possible, when you see him again, convey a word of apology for me." ”

"I need to say sorry to more than one senior." Amphinis's face appeared in the defector's field of vision, covering a small half of the clear sky, Bai Shao's fingertips warmed, and his palm was stuffed into a kettle and other things by old Ailu, "Senior, he's still alive, that's the only thing you can be thankful for - hot drinks, dry food, take them to warm up, and replenish some energy." If you pass out, there's no third dragonman here. ”

"Hey, I'm going to run away, is that really good?"

"Don't think this is a chance for you, we're not stupid enough to let our guard down." The voice came from the other side of the white-clothed hunter, it was Luo Pingyang, who had returned, who heard Bai Shao's threat. The old hunter put down the stone slabs he was holding, wiped the sweat from his forehead, turned to Amphinis, and said, "I searched all the way and found no suitable wood, so I knocked some stones back, which were a little heavier, but the size was quite rightβ€”was it?" ”

Six-star Ailu returned to the square platform, gently pinched the unconscious man's fingers, and patted him on the face again before replying: "The effectiveness of the mandala is about to pass, and if it is too late, even if this guy is still in a coma, his body may not be able to withstand the second pain." ”

One of the biggest differences between dragonmen and humans is that healers not only have to fight against injuries and illnesses, but also have to be wary of the ancient orcs' own powerful self-healing abilities. Even a common broken bone and muscle injury needs to be dealt with as soon as possible within a few minutes of the injury, otherwise it may develop on its own and evolve into a much more troublesome injury.

In the dozens of minutes that the Black Star Twins had been trying to hang the village chief's life, one of McGnini's broken legs had shown signs of healing. However, the new bone bud from the fracture did not splice the leg bone back to the correct position, but instead protruded from the flesh and blood, almost stretching the skin, so that the blood flow that was finally stopped by Lao Ailu suffered another collapse. The two six-star hunters had to cut off part of the bone before Luo Pingyang found it as a material for fixing the splint.

"Move fast." Luo Pingyang hurriedly said, the old hunter has always been extremely sensitive to limb injuries, "I don't want him to wake up, but I find that I can only live with prosthetics for the rest of my life." ”

Such a strange and tricky injury in the past was still difficult for a six-star hunter, and of course ordinary fractures were not a problem. The two of them moved their hands, straightened their bones neatly, and fixed them with the deck. Anfinis kept his hands on and asked in a low voice, "Why has it been delayed for so long?" You didn't have any trouble on the way back, did you? ”

"The call for help has been sent, and it took some time to polish the stone." The six-star hunter pursed his lips, "I just don't know if at this distance, I can be successfully observed by the Little Hunter Group and Zhuang Dusk." Can't we send more often? ”

"Don't forget Alin, their boat is still roaming the snowy mountains." Old Eru shook her head.

Where they were, there was a huge remnant left by the impact, especially above the monotonous snow line. Unless they can understand the dispatch of the Reaper's Eye Hunter and ensure that they avoid the other party's gaze, the Blackstar Twins will risk attracting enemies with every flare they send. Although out of caution, Amphienis had instructed his companions to move the message a few kilometers away, leaving room for himself and others to identify friend or foe, but on the airship, this distance was only a slight shift in the angle of the telescope. Even if the four of them were hidden in the shadows under the impact marks, even the slightest attentive observer could find it.

Luo Pingyang glanced at Bai Shao, who was chewing dry food in the corner: "Didn't he say anything?" ”

"Whiteface and Redface sang it all over again, and I began to think that he really didn't know." Amphines sighed, "The Eyes of Death's organizational structure is modeled after the Hunters' Guild, and it is impossible for the two of them to collegiate everything. Manpower and hunting ship arrangements are what Alin is good at - that is, in the past, when did you see Ah Shao worried about the course of the airship? ”

Feeling the injured body under his hand trembling slightly, McGanini in his sleep showed a painful expression, Luo Pingyang quickly relaxed the strength in his hand and said: "Our medicine is limited, at least we can't leave him on the snowy mountain overnight." If the next signal doesn't call for a response, I'm afraid you'll have to take a gamble. ”

"Or you can look it the other way." Bai Shao beckoned from a distance, as if listening to the whispers of the two of them word for word, "The flare in my backpack should almost be dried." If it is used, a rescue airship will arrive within a few dozen minutes. For this operation, Alin specially hired a group of professional Ailu doctors, do you want to think about it? ”

Of course, eating and drinking can't make an anemic person recover his strength so quickly, Bai Shao is more like he suddenly came to his senses after hearing the dilemma of the Black Star Twins. He looked at the busy six-star hunter with a smile: "Don't worry, once I return to the ship, I will spare no effort to save the lives of the dragonmen over there." As for the two of you, after all, this is not the first time you've escaped from a heavily guarded hunting ship, so what's there to fear? ”

Amphines automatically filtered out the sarcasm of the white-clad hunter and placed the village chief's injured leg back in its place. He glanced at the thick gauze wrapped around Bai Shao's arm, and asked with a complicated expression: "I've been curious since the beginning, it's the first time you've met Village Chief McGonagall, why did you do this in order to save him?" Even if his conscience finds out, he cares too much about his safety, right? ”

"Shhhh He pointed in the direction where the three had come: "Can you still hear me?" ”

"What?"

"It's been a long time since the sound of that ancient dragon was made." As soon as Bai Shao reminded him, the Black Star Twins realized the changes that had taken place around them. Previously, the three of them were focused on the operation, but no one noticed when the vibration at the ancient dragon's lair stopped, "The dragon cub has probably temporarily exhausted its strength, I think it's all thanks to the dragonman over there." He did us a great favor, so why bother to shed some dragon blood in return? ”

Seeing that the two legendary hunters were still puzzled, the defector couldn't help but laugh and said, "Oh, it turns out that after all this time, haven't you figured it out?" He gestured to the center of the crater not far away, "Think about the identity of that fellow dragonman, think about where we found him, and the fatal wounds on his body, I guess there's no other way to explain it." Unless you really believe that that guy was swallowed by a monster and miraculously survived until now. Bai Shao pointed to his nose, "One miracle in this hunting ground is enough." ”

"You mean......" Luo Pingyang and Lao Ai looked at each other. Since the discovery of Magnini, the two strong men have their own suspicions, but neither of them is willing to take the lead in making such a magical possibility public, but now it is broken by Bai Shao.

"As part of Arin's plan, I knew that the dragonmen would definitely participate in the war in some way, but I didn't expect it to be in such a shocking way." The white-clothed hunter looked at the wounded man who was wrapped in rice dumplings, and sighed again and again, "You say, where are his wings and tail hidden?" ”
