Chapter 36: The Vulture
This is also a vulture or eagle owl, but it is so big that after spreading its wings, the length between the two wings is so far away that I am startled to see it.
I guess the average vulture, five bundled together, is not as big as this one. I also remembered the eagle owl in the Condor Heroes.
But the Condor is played very beautifully on TV, and the big guy in front of him has a bald head.
The purpose of the great vulture flying up is simple, it is coming for us. The other little vultures seemed to have found their backbone, and rushed towards the vultures, following behind.
I believe that it was not only me, but the iron donkey was also frightened, and we were stunned for a few seconds, and finally the iron donkey shouted, "Fight!" ”
We clung to each other, daggers to our chests. As the vulture got closer, it stretched out two large claws. I looked at the claws that were black and faintly reflective, and the two paws were still aimed at me and the iron donkey.
I raised my dagger and wanted to have a hard fight with my claws, preferably with a single knife and cut them off completely.
I used a lot of force, especially my waist was tight. The dagger slashed right at the claw. I was originally happy, but the appearance of a phenomenon made me almost petrified on the spot.
What is the concept that the dagger actually knocked out a spark in the claw? I wonder what the vulture grew up eating.
The vulture was not hurt by this, and the iron donkey was smarter than me, and with a dagger whizzing, he defended his side, and I was miserable, and he grabbed me by the shoulder.
My first instinct was that this was a claw, as if it was caught by the hook of a crane. I screamed in pain, and the place where I was caught quickly turned red, all of which was blood.
The vulture continued to rush forward with its speed, and I was taken by inertia, and I fell backwards with it.
I almost fainted in pain, but I took out a pair of gritted steel teeth and held on. I found out that the vulture was really a vulture, and it kept dragging me, and even more faintly dragged me into the air.
I knew I wouldn't be able to call the iron donkey, so I asked him to help quickly. I was also afraid that my shoulder would be wasted, so I freed up my other hand, didn't even want the dagger, grabbed this claw tightly, and pressed it up, adding all the weight of my body to this good arm.
Iron Donkey knows the situation on my side very well, I have known him for so long, and it is the first time I have seen him so anxious.
He scolded his mother and pounced directly. Like me, he grabbed at the vulture's other claw.
The iron donkey originally thought simply, we both dragged the vulture, after all, it was a bird and not an airplane, and it was strange that it could fly, but we underestimated the vulture again.
Its wings couldn't stop straining, and I felt that the wings were fighting with the propellers of the helicopter, and the strong winds were all blown down. I can't open my eyes anymore.
In addition, under its powerful wings, it actually dragged me and the iron donkey off the ground.
All I had in my head was one word, impossible! The iron donkey is more realistic than me, he doesn't think about these useless. He held the dagger in his other hand, and the fat man came up with a fierce force, took the dagger, and slashed at the vulture's claws, and the slash was very concentrated.
This is also a method, no matter how hard its claws are, it can't withstand the stacked attack power. However, the little vulture that followed the vulture was not given for nothing.
They were all furious, and gathered around the iron donkey, and pounced on them one by one.
Although the claws of these vultures are not as powerful as those of the vultures, after grabbing the iron donkey, they also scratch and scratch a handful of meat at once.
The iron donkey grinned in pain, he could no longer concentrate on cutting the vulture's claws, so he had to be distracted, and danced his dagger at the little vultures.
One of the hapless vultures was struck, and after being hit with a dagger, he screamed and fell straight to the ground.
I guess nine times out of ten, it's here. The vulture didn't want its men to suffer unnecessary casualties, and suddenly it was reinforced.
Only then did I realize that the strength of this flat-haired animal still had some reservations. I felt like the two of us were a bird, and we suddenly picked up speed. Unfortunately, there was a steep descent ahead.
We were taken all the way up the downhill by the vultures.
The condor is still flying higher and higher, and I think of a possibility, and my heart says that this king and the eight lambs don't want to get me and the iron donkey into the air, and then throw them down and fall to death, right?
We must not let this happen. I said to the iron donkey, "Hurry up and let the idea fall." ”
At the same time, I twisted my body vigorously, regardless of whether my shoulder hurt or not. The iron donkey followed.
I didn't pay attention to which of us fell first, but I felt another intently aching sensation, and my clothes were torn at my shoulders. I paid this price for freedom, and I swooped down.
At this point, I was already three meters away from the downhill, and the moment I fell, I wanted to control my balance. But it's downhill. I don't have the skills to stabilize at all.
I stumbled and fell, and then gnawed the grass.
I was also carried by the gravity of the slope and quickly rolled down. I felt like the world was spinning, especially when there was a grass in front of me and a blue sky and white clouds.
I was dizzy and still wanted to stop. I've tried dragging weeds with both hands. But every time I dragged down a handful of grass, it didn't have any other effect.
In the end, I rolled faster and faster, and I didn't even have a chance to pull the grass. I can't help it, so I said let's save my head first.
I hurriedly put my hands on my head. Preliminary estimates were that I rolled for about a minute, and when I was completely down the slope, I slowly stopped.
I let go of my hands, and my head was covered with grass, which looked funny and embarrassing, and I couldn't see my hands, which were full of all kinds of small cuts.
I knew it wasn't the time to rest, so I looked up and looked around.
The iron donkey was twenty meters away from me, and he wasn't dead, but he was as miserable as I was, and he was still struggling to get up.
I wanted to call out to Brother Donkey, but when the words came to my mouth, I felt a sweet throat again, and spit out a mouthful of blood foam. It's not that my internal organs hurt much, it's that my mouth is bleeding.
I hummed, and finally stood upright, and walked with the iron donkey to the other.
After my brother and I met, the iron donkey laughed. His smile was a little cold, and his teeth were full of blood, which made him look a little hideous.
A vulture chirped in the sky, diverting our energy again. We look up at the sky.
The vulture and his men circled over the downhill slope. I felt a chill in my heart, and I said that these brutes must not immediately launch the next wave of attacks?
Strangely enough, however, the vulture seemed to be of little interest to us, and as soon as it turned around, it spread its wings and flew off into the distance, followed by the little vultures.
I thought to myself, what kind of plane is this? And not long after the vulture flew away, some figures appeared above the slope.
I don't have to guess that it's the damn monks. I said to myself that the tiger had just left, and the wolf had come again.
The shadows didn't stay long, and there were two groups of people, about five, all rushing downhill. They run in a strange way, swaying from side to side, like African great ostriches.
But I feel like it's a way to keep their balance and get down the slope quickly.
The iron donkey gasped and weighed in his heart. He is a professional special forces, and both intuitively and empirically, he realizes that we have no chance of winning.
The iron donkey said to me, "Withdraw!" And I was afraid that I wouldn't understand, so I added, "Withdraw as far as you can." ”
I said in my heart that this is the only way to do it, and it is better than just holding it back. My brother and I tried our best to flee again.
However, after coming downhill, the environment changes a lot, there is only a small patch of meadow, and the rest is all forest. It didn't take long for the iron donkey and me to reach the edge of the forest.
During this time, I realized a problem, after the enemy rushed down the slope, he did not chase us desperately, but just showed a moderate speed, not far or close.
This happened once, and then the vulture appeared and cleaned up me and the iron donkey, and I wonder if there will be some beast waiting for us again.
I'll tell the Iron Donkey about it. The iron donkey has a lot of physical exertion, and it took a while to react after listening to me. He shook his head. I don't know what he's trying to say.
But the iron donkey changed the topic again and said to me, "Calm down, apprentice, we have come to this point, don't be afraid, otherwise we should have a chance to live, and we may not be able to grasp it." ”
I answered. We went into the forest again.
The pursuing enemies finally stopped, and saw us into the woods.
I've always been uneasy, and I always turned my head to look. In fact, the iron donkey is similar, and he looked back a few times, but he also said to me, don't always look back, concentrate on moving forward.
This time, when I turned back and was urged by him, he stepped on a field of weeds.
The iron donkey's face also changed suddenly, and after shouting a word to lie down, he flew forward and fell down. I was frightened by him, and I thought of a possibility, we really encountered a mechanism this time.
