At this moment, there is a hidden dense forest on the edge of the island.

It was getting dark, and the vanguard was gathering together to eat and heal, and in the previous battle to rescue Sal, they had lost sixty-five men, including thirty-five recruits and thirty veterans, and the original team of nearly two hundred people was now only more than ninety remaining, and many of them were wounded.

The soldiers were devastated one by one, losing Sal, they lost their backbone, and fortunately, Mira and other five squad leaders continued to cheer everyone up, so there was no chaos, at the moment they were carrying not much food, and in two days they would almost run out of ammunition and food, which was the result of saving along the way, and the medicines and first-aid supplies urgently needed at this time were directly sold out after this battle, and the situation was not optimistic.

In the previous battle, if it weren't for Miller, Thatch, and Leighton who still took care of the overall situation and forcibly pulled Mira and the others back, it is estimated that there would be no more than ten people alive and staying here at this time.

"Let's eat something, otherwise I'm hungry, how can I save the captain?"

Miller did not play any more tricks on his cheeks, and handed Anel a piece of bread, who hugged his knees with a sad face, and tears in the corners of his eyes, although he took the bread at last, but it was accompanied by tears.

"I'm sorry, if it weren't for us...... So excited, everyone won't be like this......"

On the other side, Mira said weakly to a few companions, with a hint of choked in her voice, completely losing her previous sharp and capable style, after leaving the battlefield to calm down, she looked at the soldiers who had suffered heavy losses, and her heart was also full of guilt and bitterness--- obviously she was also a captain, but she did not fulfill her responsibilities as a captain at all, but caused so many unnecessary sacrifices because of her own impulsiveness, which made her feel extremely uncomfortable at this time.

"Don't worry, look at the appearance of the leading ape giant, and it won't hurt the captain's surname in a short time......"

Beside her, Thatch comforted him with kind words, he had also been wounded in the battle, and his right arm was now hanging limply, apparently slapped by the ape giant.

"But even so, the captain's side ......"

Mira said, her eyes full of mist.

Hearing this, Thatch nodded and said in a deep voice: "I know, so wait until tomorrow, and a few of our captains will quietly lurk over and find an opportunity to rescue the captain!" ”

"But your hand ......"

"It's okay." Thatch interrupted it with a smile, "Let's rest for another day, and we'll leave tomorrow afternoon, and this arm will be a little better by then, well, it's just a rub." ”

Hearing this, Mira was stunned, and the worry on her face did not dissipate at all because of Thatch's comfort, and continued: "But we don't even know the most basic route, if we alarm them again......"

"I'll lead the way."

Suddenly, Ani's voice came, and several people followed the voice, showing surprised glances at him.

Seeing this, Ani sneered and said, "What? Otherwise, why do you think you can find this place so smoothly? ”

"You ......"

Anil wondered, and although all of them had been instructed by Thrall to help cover the whereabouts of the guy who had suddenly joined halfway, they still didn't know his true identity.

"You don't have to worry about so much, call me when it's time to act."

With one more sentence, Arnie turned and walked away.

The remaining few people looked at each other, wanting to catch up and ask for clarification, but looking at the man's gloomy black face, they also understood that they couldn't ask anything useful, and it was naturally irrational to regenerate the incident at this moment, so they had to sigh, get up and inspect the area, arrange matters, and set up a sentry.

It is strange to say that when they and the others retreated from the battlefield, they were not hindered in the slightest, and even until everyone fled here, no ape giant caught up, they didn't believe that they and the others could catch up with those guys who were nearly twenty Levi high, and they didn't believe that on this island, there could be places that they couldn't explore, and strengthening vigilance at the moment was naturally the first priority.

On the other side, Helista was looking in the direction where Mila and the others had gathered, and looked at Ani's back in a daze.

"What's wrong? Khlista? ”

Seeing this, Yuniel on the side asked--- she may be the only person in the team who still looks like usual, and there is even a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, and her heartless characteristics are undoubtedly displayed, which may have something to do with the fact that she and Sal are 'rivals in love'......

"No, nothing, just feeling the back of that person...... Kind of familiar......"

Helista relented, and then nibbled on the bread in his hand......

"Give."

Mikasa was sitting on a tree trunk at the edge of the jungle with her knees crossed, her eyes fixed on the direction in which Sal had been captured, when she heard a gust of wind behind her, and Ani jumped up and stood firmly behind her, then stepped forward and threw a piece of bread into her arms.

And this piece of bread was exchanged for Mikasa's cold eyes.

“…… Don't look at me like that. ”

The two looked at each other, and Ani said with the same gloomy face, "If I hadn't dragged you back by the ankles, you would have died a long time ago." ”

"You don't have to worry about this." Mikasa said in a low voice, "All I know is that you stopped me from saving him!"

Without paying much attention, Ani also sat cross-legged on the branch with his back to her, and said with a sneer: "This is not like your style, why did you lose your mind as soon as you pulled Sal's guy." ”

Hearing this, Mikasa choked for a moment: "...... You don't have to worry about it! ”

"Huh."

"Hurry up and rest for the day, tomorrow is the time to act, and set off in the afternoon, almost just in time to reach the center of the island at nightfall...... I don't like you very much, but I have to say it...... Your strength is still good. ”

Arnie said with a faint smile while secretly frowning.

She didn't have any good feelings for Thrall, but now, in order to achieve her wishes, he is the only help she can rely on, but with his strong strength, he can't compete with the ape giant, and he was captured alive...... This made her hope that had only begun to rise gradually in the past few days fall again, but now that the arrow is ready to be sent, she can only follow the script like this......

"Ahem!! …… Hmmm......"

At the same time, in a cave in the center of the island, Thrall had just been awakened by a mouthful of cold water poured into his nose and mouth.

For a while, he only felt that he had a splitting headache, and he couldn't exert any strength up and down his body, his eyes slowly opened, and in a trance, he saw a pair of huge eyes staring at him.

"You're finally awake."

Orbuda said in a deep voice, a very strange smile on his monkey-like face.

"You...... What to do? ”

Sal shook his head vigorously, and when he was a little more conscious, he realized that he was naked, except for the space ring he was still wearing on his hand!

Looking around, he found that his clothes, mercury knives, three-dimensional motorized devices, etc. were thrown in the corner of the edge of this stone cave, and he asked with great pain in his head.

Then a low laugh came out of Orbuda's throat, and he slowly raised his hands, spread out his left palm, and the sharp nails on his right index finger made a trace of red blood exude high temperatures with a slight stroke on it.

Then, it put its left hand on top of Thrall's head, and large drops of blood fell head-on on Thrall's head.

Not only did the blood carry a high temperature, but it also emitted a heavy fishy smell, and Salton, who had been poured on his head and face, was tormented so much that it was only when he felt that he was about to suffocate that Orbuda withdrew his palm, and then took out a 'small' stone from somewhere, and 'gently' hit Sal's legs!

"Ouch, I !!"

Sal only felt that his legs were unconscious after a sudden sharp pain, and his legs were directly smashed by it! At that moment, he scolded in pain, but soon, he felt a hot pain coming from his eyes, mouth and nose, and this pain continued to extend into his body as time passed minute by minute!

"Ho...... Ho...... I'll grass your uncle!! ”

The intense pain caused Sal to hold his head and howl, and his body involuntarily began to roll on the ground, and Orbuda watched his performance with great interest, and said in a deep voice: "Sure enough, it is easier to wake up in a conscious state, then, little one, let me see how you will react......

After saying that, Orbuda observed Thrall for a while and walked out of the cave, then pointed to the two ape giants and walked away after seeing the entrance of the cave------It's too boring to stay here and guard this kid, anyway, there is still time before the transformation, so let's tell the slave women to clean up their hair that was soiled today......

As soon as Orbuda got out, all that was left in the cave was Thrall, who was smoking, rolling around in pain.

"Ho...... Hurt you to death hastily, uncle, and I...... What is this!! ”

The pain was so severe that Thrall completely put aside his old image and kept screaming and screaming, and he clearly felt that the blood of the ape giant had penetrated into every pore of his body since it dripped down on him, invading every cell of his body, as if he had fallen into magma, and there was no pain!

This kind of pain that makes people want to die continues to extend to his body, and after a while, it spreads to his internal organs, but at this time, he can't even scold, and tries his best to gather the strength and qi of his whole body to resist, until this pain finally reaches his heart, an unknown force suddenly erupts......
