Chapter 8: The Broken Mind of Despair
The world is unfair, talented people are definitely better than people without talent, people with backgrounds are definitely easier than people without backgrounds, and some gaps can not be made up through hard work. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
The saying that "hard work will lead to success" is a lie of successful people, after all, there are actually very few ways to make up for shortcomings through hard work, and the only way is to accept the status quo and find a way to solve the problem from other angles, so as to achieve your own success.
Otilia's idea was so simple, because she hadn't read any strategy books, and no one had taught her how to defeat someone who was many times stronger than herself, so Otilia thought of such an unreliable approach.
If you can't defeat a powerful enemy, you just have to find a way to become a companion to the enemy, so that you can easily solve the problem without troublesome planning and continuous fighting.
Of course, all this is based on the end result, and if the end result is completely different from what was imagined, then it can only be said that Otilia is still too naΓ―ve.
But this is also a helpless thing, after all, everyone has been driven to a dead end, and if you can't fight head-on, isn't there only such a helpless choice left? It's not that you have to make such a dangerous move, but you have to use this seemingly stupid plan to make a last-ditch effort.
Because of the pain of the wound, the monster was writhing its bloody body, and it smashed and crushed everything it went like a god of destruction; The rocks and bushes that served as shelter were destroyed before they could withstand a single blow.
Now there are not many people left, and if you don't cooperate, there is only a dead end; However, even if you want to cooperate, once you go out, you will be locked by monsters and pursued, which means that you can't contact other people.
What's more important is that among the survivors may be cultivators who betrayed everyone before, and if you continue to stand on the united front with such people, no matter who you are, you will feel uneasy.
Still hiding behind cover, Otilia and the doctor watched the monster's movements and prepared to find a suitable moment to rush out.
"Little girl, if we go out now, it is very likely that we will be easily killed, after all, the others will not cooperate with us, just the two of us...... However, it makes perfect sense for one person to act as a decoy to help the monster remove the weapons that may be present in the wound. β
"I know, but I'm a little worried that other people will interfere with us when we're moving, and some guys think they'll be alive if they die."
"I mean fix that bastard! Quite hateful indeed! In addition, the distribution method I just made is dangerous.,It's easy to get killed by the guy who acts as a bait.,And it's also dangerous to approach the monster to take out the weapon inside its wound.,Anyway, there's only one chance.γ β
The meaning of the doctor man is very simple, that is, if it fails, both of them will be killed by monsters, and if it succeeds, there is still a slight possibility of survival.
Both Otilia and the Doctor knew very well that the monster was self-aware, not just a creature that knew how to kill, otherwise the monster wouldn't have defended itself like a clever alien race before attacking.
Since there is the possibility of communication, then you can let the other party understand the goodwill here, and it is unknown whether it will be recognized by the monster in the end.
"The decision has come out, little girl, you can choose, I don't care whether you run out as bait or choose to help the monster take out the things inside the wound."
"Then the second one...... My feet are not as fast as your grown-ups, and I can't have the effect of delaying time effectively. β
"That's right, let's start moving; Not far away there is a slightly higher rock, and I run over to attract the monster's attention, and you take the opportunity to jump off you and climb near the monster's back. β
"I know this, and there is only one choice."
Otilia, who said this, noticed that the doctor was looking at her injured left arm, so Otilia waved her left hand, which was painful but unexpectedly powerful.
"As you can see, it hurts, but I think it's okay to complete the next task, that monster has sparse hair, but it's thick, and it should be able to hold on."
"What a surprising circumstance that your wounds didn't affect you? It's not an ordinary girl's endurance at all, so be sure to let me study it next time. β
"I refuse! It must have been injected with a lot of strange drugs by those white coats before...... I don't know what those things are, but I can feel my body slowly changing. β
"Sure enough, this planet, like other marginal planets, is also a place for some inhumane experiments."
"That monster is coming this way, let's get moving."
Otilia reminded the doctor who wanted to say something, and the two of them walked between the few bunkers as low as they could.
The entire arena had become bloody, and the monster looking for survivors was roaring as it destroyed the bunker, and it was obvious that it was in a very angry state.
Unaffected by the monster's roar, for some reason, Otilia feels so calm now, is it also because of those drugs?
Otilia, who didn't understand much, was just trying to survive now, so she arrived at the designated place and made eye contact with the doctor, and both parties confirmed that they were ready to start executing the plan.
Otilia thought that the reason why the doctor would trust him was probably because he was a test subject, otherwise he would not have been an adult to cooperate with a child who was only eleven or twelve years old.
But...... Otilia doesn't think of herself as a child, and if she wants to survive on this damn planet, she has to grow up quickly.
The only one who can keep himself is himself......
Otilia, who was on a cold rock, saw the movement of the bushes on her right, which was deliberately caused by the doctor man; The rustling sound of the leaves made the already alert monster tense its nerves and began to turn into a rampaging death train and turn to the area where the doctor man was.
"Wow!! What a nasty monster!!! β
The doctor screamed as he left the bushes early and began to flee, while the monster behind him was of course in hot pursuit.
Running, the doctor ran as hard as he could to the rock where Otilia was hiding, with a very nervous expression on his face, and he kept letting out heavy gasps.
"I'm going to be caught up! This guy is so fast! Next...... Next!!! β
The doctor stepped over a corpse that had fallen to the ground, and then crawled along the road in front of him to speed up, almost falling into a dog and eating.
Fortunately, the doctor man supported his body with his right hand at the last moment, and he quickly passed by the rock where Otilia was, screaming and continuing to run forward.
"Please! Little Girl!! β
Otilia didn't respond, she just waited quietly, waiting for the perfect time, the most suitable opportunity.
I have to say that the doctor man's speed is still very fast, even if his posture is a little bad, he has indeed completed the task he was given, and successfully lured the monster to the area directly below Otilia.
Exhaled a breath and exhaled all the turbid gases, and as a result, Otilia smelled blood, a very nasty smell of blood, so Otilia became very conscious, and she did not want to be one of the corpses that made these gases.
Twenty meters from her side, Otilia bent her hands to support herself to her feet, and when the monster was ten meters away from a certain point, Otilia jumped to her feet.
Her wound cracked, staining the bandages of her clothes red, proving that Otilia was doing her best.
Although the monster noticed the abnormality above his head, he could not react immediately, and only accelerated and ran to try to shake off Otilia above.
"Did it work?!? Little girl!! β
It's noisy! Otilia, who was shouting loudly in her heart, did not have time to speak, and she focused all her attention on her current actions.
Due to the monster's increased speed, it wanted to cut off Otilia's body with the blade of its tail, but it was still one step slower.
"Catch ......"
Otilia held her breath as she finished speaking, and her outstretched hands grabbed the monster's tail fiercely; Her hands were rough to the touch, rubbing them painfully, but even then she didn't have the slightest intention of letting go.
Originally, Otilia was going to land directly on the monster's back, which was a deviation from what she expected, but it was enough!
Sensing that the tail is being grabbed by an enemy, the monster twists its body and waverses its tail up and down.
"Uhhhh
Otilia's petite body moved at high speed with her tail, but fortunately she didn't grab the end part of the tail, otherwise she would have been smashed to the ground.
"Whoa!!
"That's why it's noisy."
Ottilia couldn't see her surroundings clearly, so she focused on her tail and began to tug her body to climb up the monster's back.
Bang!! The monster slammed into the nearby rocks, and Otilia's body, which had been hit by the aftershocks, shook violently again, the skin of her hands was worn out, and blood oozed out.
With a bang, the stones scattered, like a rock that had fallen to the ground in a vulnerable blow, and Otilia's seemingly thin body slammed directly into the ground, causing severe pain in her elbows, legs, and shoulders.
Boom! Otilia gritted her teeth and held back the pain, feeling her heart beat faster.
Boom! The heart continued to beat faster, and there was a sudden surge of power from all over the body.
Otilia didn't know what was happening, but she used it with all her might.
With both hands like sensory machines, Otilia crawled straight behind the monster and grabbed the thin, thick hairs with her left hand.
"Roar !!!!!!"
The monster's hoarse roar continued to resound in the arena, and instead of continuing to chase the Medic, it was trying to find a way to throw Otilia to the ground.
"Be quiet!! Stupid monster!! β
Otilea was shaken again, and she thrust her free right hand into the horrible wound on the monster's back leg.
The monster let out a hoarse cry of pain, and viscous blood splattered to the ground.
"It hurts......! But there really is! β
"Really found it!?"
Otilia ignored the doctor who ran to the heights, she grabbed a blade in her right hand, the blade was bigger than the palm of her hand, and it was constantly cutting and shattering the inside of the monster's leg, and it was a shame that it had held on until now.
It hurts, and Otilia's finger is cut by the blade, so she closes her eyes and breathes down, letting herself forget everything as she pulls the blade out of the monster's wound.
"Roar -- !!!!"
"Uh-huh!!"
The monster slammed headfirst into the wall, then twisted its body and prepared to roll on the ground, and under the frequent impact, Otilia's grasping hair broke, and the whole person fell to the ground.
With a thud, Otilia slammed into the rough ground, holding the blade that had just been drawn from the monster's wound for defense.
With her left arm dripping with blood and her right arm covered in wounds, Otilia was unable to fight back effectively and was in a desperate situation.
The doctor man in the distance tried to do something, but he didn't have time to feel the scene at the moment, because he was also afraid.
Otilia gasped heavily, and the monster ran to Otilia violently, and the bloodied monster stared at the girl on the ground with cloudy eyes, and it was ready to use its feet to stump the girl who had just climbed on it, but it stopped on the way.
Originally, Otilia planned to dodge sideways to avoid the fatal blow, but since the other party stopped, she did not act rashly.
What's wrong? Puzzled, Otilia saw that the monster's gaze was falling on her right hand, and the blade that had been inside it was still dripping blood, both Otilia's blood and its own blood.
"Roaring ......"
The monster opened its mouth and roared softly, then crouched in front of Otilia and licked the wound on his thigh.
"...... that will get dirtier"
"Woo-......?"
"Doctor, doctor! Come here! Hurry up! β
Otilia shouted behind her, and the doctor man hiding in the bushes looked worriedly at where Otilia was.
"Well, little girl, can you not be so loud, and I don't dare to come here......"
"It should be fine, uncle."
"I'm young! And it's okay or something...... The monster was staring at me. β
Hearing the doctor say this, Otilia put her weapon aside and slowly walked over to the monster to examine its wounds
"I can call someone to come and help you, please don't attack that person."
"Roaring ......"
The monster saw Otilia pointing at the doctor and let out an unknown roar.
"Look, uncle, it's okay."
"I'm not an uncle...... You little girl really likes to be strong. β
The doctor man raised his hands and walked towards the monster in fear, and the monster's tail swayed.
"I'll Heal You......"
The doctor declared, he didn't know if the monster understood, but at least he didn't attack himself.
The originally noisy, desperate, and bloody arena began to show an unexpected side. (To be continued.) )
