Escape into the Demon Path Chapter 546: The Betrayer
"If I'm not mistaken, Zeratul did evacuate here last time and set up camp, but ......" I was confused when I looked at the trees, flowers and birds all over the surrounding mountains, there were no inhabited creatures here, where did these star spirits go.
"Zeratul!"
I shouted loudly twice in the clearing, but no one replied, so I had no choice but to continue walking into the forest, looking for the footprints of the Void Star Spirit.
But something strange happened, and the deeper I went, the more I felt that there was no one living here, and that there was no alien creature in the neat and peaceful woods.
"Could it be that I made a mistake?"
I opened the map and checked it carefully, and found that this is indeed the place where I escorted the star spirit to the beginning, so it's a bit wrong to say that, but they weren't here when I sent them over, could it be that they changed places again?
Just when I was confused and didn't know what to do, a white crystal caught my attention, pure white lying quietly in a small pit under the shade of the tree, with little meaning of existence, and I wouldn't have noticed it if I hadn't inadvertently lowered my head.
I picked it up gently, and at the moment I picked it up, a vast void power poured into my body like a burst of river, making me almost unable to breathe.
Hurriedly threw away the fragments that I couldn't control, such a powerful void power, there is no doubt that this is what the Void Star Spirit will have, so my direction is not wrong, the Void Star Spirit They are here, thinking of this, I don't have any doubts, and strode towards the forest.
As I ran, I saw more and more white crystals on the ground, which made me more confident of my steps, and as my pace increased, I soon reached the middle of the forest.
And next to a big tree in the center, I made a new discovery, next to the root of the tree, a rickety creature covered in blood, the armor has been shattered, and the half-cut blade in his hand is leaning on his death, he can't tell what is going on with his mask on his face, but judging from his posture and the reaction of his body, he has been seriously injured, and has been able to seriously endanger his life, if he is not healed quickly, it will not be long before he dies.
When I came to the side of this hurtful person, I gently greeted, "Hey? Is there still consciousness? β
The seriously injured man moved slightly, his face moved slightly, and a hazy sound came out through the white mask.
"Oh...... Who did I think it was, it turned out to be you, young Sword Emperor......"
I was stunned, just by hearing my voice, I actually knew my identity, I hurriedly came to him and turned over to confirm his identity, but at the moment of turning over, I retreated to the side in surprise, and looked at the person in front of me who was almost dying, and said, "Zeratu!" How...... How could it be that you...... How did you come to this? β
"Ahem~!" Zeratul lay on the ground, coughed up two mouthfuls of blood, and said, "It's all my own sin, alas, ......."
"Don't talk yet, I'll talk about what I want to say later."
Immediately stepped forward and took out the potion to help Zeratu stop the bleeding, but Zeratu's injury was far beyond my imagination, just relying on my few bottles of potion could not play any role at all, carefully observed Zeratu's injury, there were many knife wounds on his body, several of which were deep in the body, if it weren't for Zeratu's extremely high cultivation, it was estimated that he would be a corpse now, and such a serious injury could not be relieved in a moment or two, so the most important thing to do now is to stop the bleeding first, and then find a way to settle Zeratu.
Gritting his teeth, he summoned Ling'er and ordered: "Ling'er help me take care of him, I'm going to collect some medicinal herbs, remember not to let any creature approach him, you know?" β
Ling'er drew her sword and said with a serious face: "Okay Master!" β
"Hmm."
Fly into the jungle and start looking for the medicinal materials you need, as a dragon pharmacist, I still know more or less about herbal medicine, and there should be hemostatic grass in this kind of deep forest.
Running quickly through the trees, the dragon kept sweeping under the trees.
"Blue Seal Grass is not, Lingyun Grass is not Grass Either, Dogtail Grass is not ......"
I picked out and identified the hemostatic herb among the many herbs, but things did not go as smoothly as I thought, not only did there be other herbs among the herbs that hindered my search, but even some primitive local creatures began to attract my attention.
"Whew~!"
In the midst of a rough roar, a large loud sound came out from behind a large tree, and in the face of me, who was coming straight for him, it was like a warning, and once again let out a roar like an earth-shattering roar.
My expression was indifferent, and I held the Soul Flying Sword behind me and shouted, "Don't get in my way!" β
Just as the giant bear swept by, the blade came out of the body, and a fierce force emerged from the blade, and in an instant, a touch of blood flew out of the neck of the giant bear, and the giant bear staggered two steps, wailed twice and collapsed to the ground.
β542140β
The high number jumped, the golden light on the blade gradually dissipated, and the soul flying sword was retracted into the scabbard, and continued to start looking for traces of the hemostatic grass, and this state continued, and within a few minutes, one or two strong animals would appear to block my progress, but unfortunately the strength was not enough, and I easily solved it in a few clicks.
I don't know how long it took, but when I lost no less than 20 beasts under my sword, I finally found the hemostatic herb I needed.
When I returned to Zeratu's location, there were already a lot of dead wild bear corpses around Zeratu, and Ling'er was happy, holding a snow-white puppy and sitting aside, laughing and teasing with the puppy, very cheerful.
βMaster~οΌβ
Ling'er, who saw me coming back, immediately became nervous, reached out and hid the puppy behind her, with a panicked expression, like a little girl who broke a vase.
Ling'er's reaction naturally I know what it means, it's nothing more than that I said before that I don't let any creature get close to Zeratul, and now she is playing here with a puppy, which is undoubtedly against my orders.
smiled helplessly, stretched out his hand and stroked Ling'er's little brain, and said, "Little fool, what are you afraid of, I won't blame you for a puppy, come and follow me to see his injuries." β
As if she had been released, Ling'er smiled and nodded: "Hmm." β
With the white puppy and I came to Zeratu's side, I leaned over and took out the hemostatic grass and said, "Zeratu, bear with me a little, I'll help you stop the bleeding?" β
ββ¦β¦β
Probably because of excessive bleeding, Zeratul's consciousness at this moment has become a little blurred, and he nodded in a daze.
Quickly knead the herbs to make a medicinal puree, and then combined with the potion and evenly smeared on Zeratu's wound, the hemostatic grass also lived up to expectations, and it didn't take long for it to exert its medicinal effect, and quickly stopped Zeratu's blood.
Perhaps because there is still a certain paralyzing effect in the hemostatic grass, when the bleeding stops, Zeratu's tormented face gradually regains its original peace.
Bandaging Zeratu briefly, he asked softly, "How are you feeling now?" β
"Whew~!"
Lying on the ground, Zeratul let out a long sigh of relief and smiled, "Thank you, I'm much more comfortable now." β
With a sigh of relief, he did it next to Zeratul: "That's good." β
He pulled out a loaf of bread from his backpack and asked, "Would you like some?" β
"That's for the best."
I took out another bottle of water from your backpack, handed it over with the bread, and took my bread, Zeratul pulled off the mask and took two bites, and then showed a look of great enjoyment, and kept exclaiming, "It's been a long time since I've eaten something so delicious, ah...... It's so nice to be alive......"
Reaching out to give Ling'er and the puppy a little bread, he asked, "No, how miserable are you, Zeratul?" β
"Alas......" Zeratu sighed, reached out and touched the mutilated blade on his left arm, and said dejectedly, "You don't know something." β
"Can you tell me about that?"
Zeratul took a sip of water and said with a slightly tired look: "This matter starts with the time when you rescued us from the encirclement, when we broke away from the alien insects, the star spirits were hit a lot, especially my team, for the escape of the whole clan, they almost all died on the battlefield, and in the end, there were only a few strong leaders like Landis and Tannis, and then ......"
Zeratul choked up, looking at the sky with a hint of anger and helplessness in his eyes.
"But when we return to the tribe...... Tess ...... That guy Tis actually colluded with the elders to say that we colluded with the insects in order to survive, betrayed the people, and said that we were defectors and betrayers. β
"And what did you say?"
Zeratu sighed and sighed: "If I had troops in the past, I would have been able to argue with them, but at that time, I ...... Alas...... Without any evidence and no rights, me, Landis, and Tannis were called defectors by them, and they hunted them down all the way......"
"And these are all caused by those star spirits?"
"Hmm."
"Is that really ruthless? What about Landis and Tannis, are they alright? β
"I don't know about this, we were killed half a month ago, I don't know what their situation is, but I believe that with the strength of their two brothers and sisters, there shouldn't be much of a problem."
Zeratu smiled with relief, looked at me and said, "It's you, it's not small if you don't see changes in a few days." Glancing at my left arm, he said, "What's going on?" β
I smiled, "Oh, the price of a comeback by cutting off Moore's head." β
"Good fellow, I said that the Dire Legion has been moving so much recently, it turns out that you did it, one of the six leaders of the Dark Blade, amazing, boy!"
I laughed at myself: "It's nothing serious, no, I just want to ask you to help me solve this big problem." β
Seeing me laugh like this, Zeratu glanced at the blood-red on his chest and laughed, "It's really going to give me a problem." β
