"The 'mission' they are talking about, is it to capture the Seven Star Hunters?"
"Why only for the Seven Star Hunters?"
"Iron Fist, is your loss of control this time related to it?"
Faced with these three questions, Iron Fist was silent for a long time.
He walked back and forth in the tent, his steps heavy, his brow full of anxiety, pain, and struggle. His breathing gradually became heavier, his lips pursed, and his body began to emit a black resentment that seemed to be like substance, which was a sign that he was about to lose control!
Durand's brows furrowed, he thought for a moment, turned back to Vivien and said lightly, "You go out first." ”
The girl was slightly stunned, then nodded obediently, and without asking why, turned and walked out of the tent.
Durand then looked at Iron Fist again, only to see that Iron Fist was completely immersed in his inner tangle, and he didn't even notice Vivien's departure. At this time, in the eyes of the dwarves, they cannot see the existence of others at all. His breathing grew heavier and heavier, and a strange "ho-ho" sound began to come out of his throat, and he was about to lose control again.
Looking at such an iron fist, looking at the iron fist's tightly knit brows and twitching face, Durand did not show the slightest anxiety or concern, but his face turned cold a little.
Durand got up slowly, and said indifferently: "You're enough." ”
Iron Fist stood still, his eyes red at Duland.
Durand stared at the iron fist, the corners of his mouth hooked up a sneer, and said lightly: "Is my question really that difficult to answer?" ”
"......" Iron Fist gritted his teeth and did not speak.
Duland's eyes gradually narrowed, and a dangerous light flashed in his gaze, which was even mixed with a hint of murderous aura. He stared at the dwarf for a long time, his gaze as sharp as a knife. Then Durand suddenly shook his head and smiled, and scolded in a low voice: "What the! Toast without eating and eating penalty wine! ”
The moment the words fell, Duland's figure disappeared directly in place, and the next moment appeared out of thin air in front of Iron Fist. Iron Fist didn't have time to react, only felt a flower in front of him. Durand is already close at hand!
The dwarf opened his mouth to say something, but suddenly he snorted, and his face was full of pain and his back was hunched over.
- Durand simply slammed a heavy punch and smashed it hard in the belly of the iron fist! This punch was extremely heavy, and with the strong physique of the iron fist, he convulsed in pain, and half knelt on the ground. I couldn't breathe, and the green tendons on my forehead jumped wildly.
Duland's face was full of indifference, he grabbed the dwarf's head with his backhand, and directly hit several vicious knees, each of which hit the face and each one made a muffled bang. Then he threw the dwarf to the ground with a flick of his hand.
Iron Fist's mouth and nose were bleeding, and he suddenly let out an angry roar, ignoring the pain in his abdomen and face, and tried to stand up, but Durand made up two more kicks, and fell back to the ground with a muffled grunt.
The dwarf roared frantically, "Duland." Damn it, what are you doing-hmm! ”
Durand grabbed Iron Fist's neck, stuck the follow-up words in his throat, he looked at Iron Fist up close with a murderous face, and said coldly: "Is it that I have been too kind to you in the past few years, so that you have forgotten who I am?" I'm Duland! Did you hear me clearly? The nightmare of all the aliens in the ranch, Duland. Sendrot! ”
With a weak grip in his right hand, a long flame knife immediately condensed and formed in his hand, and Durand held a strange long knife in his hand, and the blade was aimed straight at the heart of the iron fist. Say, "I treat you as a friend, but my patience is not unlimited!" In fact, my patience is poor! All the intel is showing: something is wrong in the ranch! But until now, I don't know what happened, so I'm very upset now, very, very unhappy! Iron fist. If you want to die, then I can kill you right now, and then directly overturn the entire Full Moon Court!" Once it's over, all your pain and entanglement will come to an end! What do you think? Do you want to? Think? If you don't want to, just answer Lao Tzu's question honestly!! Immediately, immediately!! ”
Iron Fist was pinched and his face was flushed, he lay straight on the ground, did not resist, but did not back down, and said with difficulty and intermittently: "That...... You kill ...... Kill me. ”
Durand laughed angrily, and said with a loud voice: "So you really want to die?" Or do you think I won't kill you? ”
With a hard slap in the face of Iron Fist, Durand smiled and asked, "Do you really want to die so much?" Kill me like a soft egg, or do you become a lunatic and kill yourself? Amusing! I knew that I wouldn't have saved you before, and I made you lose control and get lost, and you didn't know how you died! Soft eggs! ”
With a movement of his wrist, the tip of the orange flame ghost's slash slowly broke into the body of the iron fist, and the burning pain immediately swept through the pain nerves of the iron fist, Durand condescended and said coldly: "The last chance, will you answer my question or not?" ”
Iron Fist's face was distorted, he had bitten his teeth to blood, his eyes were wide as he looked at Duland, his body became tighter and tighter, and the two were in a stalemate.
I don't know how long it took, but the dwarf, who was in extreme pain in his heart, suddenly collapsed and went limp, and squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth: "He said, he said that he never regretted it, and he never ...... I have never regretted it! ”
"Him?"
Durand was stunned for a moment, thought for a moment and then thought of something, and asked with a fixed gaze: "You mean...... Your father? ”
Iron Fist's lips trembled and he couldn't speak, but tears fell silently.
Durand was silent for a moment, his tone slowed down a little, but his brows tightened, and he asked in a deep voice, "You actually went to see him again?" Are you crazy or stupid? ”
"I'm crazy! It's stupid too! ”
Iron Fist pushed Durand away fiercely, sat up, was silent for a while, and then said in a low voice: "It is indeed the Full Moon Royal Court that wants to catch the Seven Star Hunters, and the six major clans should all be involved, you guessed it right." As for why they only targeted the Seven Star Hunters, to be honest, I don't know, and my father didn't sue me. I actually noticed it by accident because it was so unusual and weird, and I was worried...... I couldn't help but meet my father and wanted to confirm something. ”
Iron Fist spoke a little incoherently, but Durand listened very carefully, and after listening to it, his eyes flashed slightly, and he asked, "Where did you meet?" Full Moon Court? Or is it here? ”
“…… Over here. ”
Durand laughed angrily again, and scolded unceremoniously: "Iron Fist, what the hell are you thinking?" That's all you need to see him. You even let him know where you live?! ”
"I ...... I don't know what I think. Iron Fist tugged at his head in pain.
Durand let out a long breath, thought for a moment, and concluded: "In other words, you noticed that the six major clans captured the Seven Star Hunters, and felt very abnormal. So I made an appointment with your father here...... But he didn't tell you the reason why he only caught the Seven Star Hunters, did he? Then did he personally admit that it was the Full Moon Court that was doing this? ”
He acquiesced. Iron Fist said in a low voice, "Moreover, apart from the Full Moon Royal Court, who else in the ranch can do such a thing?" ”
"That's right." Durand sighed.
In most cases, it is more difficult to capture than to slash, and the Court of the Full Moon captures the Seven Star Hunters in the ranch. The price paid is definitely not small, in other words, the plans of the aliens this time are probably quite huge. This was probably the reason why Iron Fist was extremely uneasy, otherwise he would not have gone to see his father anyway.
"What else did your father say?" Durand asked.
“…… He said that he did not regret sacrificing my brother and me at all, saying that it was a necessary sacrifice for the survival of the race. He killed his brother! Killed my mother! And they hurt me like this. Do you think you're right? How can a person who can't even protect his relatives protect the entire family?! Iron Fist gritted his teeth and said, "He also invited me to return to the Full Moon Court, but I refused. ”
At this point, Durand finally figured out most of the situation.
The Full Moon Court has another move, and it's a big move. The reason for the loss of control of the Iron Fist is also understood. But things are still foggy, and the core question has not been answered, why is the Full Moon Court only targeting the Seven Star Hunters? And do such a strange thing as "only catch and don't kill"?
Durand sighed. Finally, he asked, "You didn't mention me to your father, did you?" ”
"No, I didn't say my true level."
Durand nodded, "That's good." ”
Then he regained his peace, put away the orange flame ghost slash, looked at the iron fist and said seriously: "You are not the only one who is miserable in this world, besides, the matter has already been born, whether your father regrets it or not, your mother and brother will not come back." But you're alive! Since you're still alive, try to keep your head up and your chest puffed out. Look forward and live well. ”
Iron Fist shook his head and said, "You don't understand. ”
Durand shrugged and said, "Maybe, maybe I can't fully understand how you feel, but honestly, I understand very well the sadness of being alone and in pain that makes it hard to breathe." I haven't seen my parents in almost nine years. They don't even know if I'm dead or alive. I wish they thought I was dead, so that after the grief was over, they would be able to move on instead of trying to find my whereabouts......"
Durand shook his head, his face was a little downcast, turned around, and finally said, "That's it, I'm going to the Full Moon Court." Also, Iron Fist, you're not without a choice, I told you before, I can let you leave the ranch and fly away from now on. If you still can't let go of your people and insist on leaving, you have another choice, I mentioned to you the White Tiger, she is a sun elf, and she is also the chariot of the herding city. Although I don't know the specific situation, her situation should be somewhat similar to yours. So, you too can learn from her, and submit to the city of shepherds, become the chariot of the shepherds, and serve the three kings. In that case, your people should be much better off than they are now. ”
Hearing this, Iron Fist shook his head slowly but firmly and said, "I can't do it." Survival, dignity, and freedom are all won by fists, not by momentary compromises. ”
Durand sighed and said helplessly: "That's your biggest problem." All I can say is that there is no gain without giving. The reality is that we will never have the best option, either compromise on this or that. If you don't want to give up anything, keep on with the status quo and continue to suffer. I can't help you, and no one can help you. ”
Iron Fist's face shook a few times, but he didn't answer.
Durand didn't say anything more, strode out of the tent, took Vivien's small hand with a complicated face, and left the place.
