Chapter 304: Chasing the Light

Mei Duo and the Black Wolf Clan sat around the campfire and sat on the ground. The firelight danced to reflect her beautiful face, and the only thing in her eyes was her newborn son, Blackfall. The little one was dozing, his long eyelashes flickering like the wings of a black butterfly.

She couldn't help but kiss him on the forehead, cheek, nose and lips again and again, and said to him, "You and I already know each other, don't we?" But today was the first time we had met. When you were in my belly, I was always singing to you and telling you the stories my parents told me, but I haven't had time for you to remember me as I am! I love you so much, my darling. ”

Diba's mood is the same as that of Meadow, their son has just been born, and he has to face eternal separation, and if Onibu can successfully take him to the foot of the flaming volcano, he will travel alone through the universe to a completely unfamiliar planet. But at this moment, he can't show too much cowardice, because they still have a difficult battle to fight, and he, as the current leader of the Black Wolf Clan, must be their pillar and example.

Once a black meteorite, although called the dark earth because the galaxy that exists has no sun, it is beautiful and peaceful. The ancestors of the Black Wolf Clan were the children of Mimaram, the goddess of fire, and the planet itself is Mimaram, who has watched over her children and lived here for generations.

When Xia Qiu first arrived at the Black Meteor with the help of the Soul Departure, the black land he saw was the Dark Night Plain on the Black Meteor, and it was also the most desolate place on the entire planet. On either side of the Dark Night Plains, there are the Winding Jungle and the Flame Volcano, and Solang Spring is not far from the foot of the Flame Volcano.

Before the outsiders appeared on the Black Fall, the main habitat of the Black Wolf Clan was the place closest to the heart of the Fire Goddess Mimaram, and the holy Solang Spring Water had an extraordinary meaning in the hearts of the Black Wolf Clan, symbolizing life and light. Every once in a while, the men would cross the Plains of Night to hunt in the Jungle and bring back their prey to share with the women and children, maintaining their wolf instincts, producing no weapons, and having strict numbers for each hunt.

Therefore, when outsiders suddenly come to the Black Meteor from a black hole formed for unknown reasons one day, they feel overwhelmed and caught off guard by these monsters. For the Black Wolf Clan, outsiders have advanced weapons, the kind of metal tube that can continuously fire poison needles or steel balls at the touch of a button, which they have never heard of.

At first, Diba thought that they had only come to the planet by accident and would not threaten the dominance of the Black Wolf Clan on the planet, but the truth soon emerged, and they didn't even blink an eye when they flicked the button to kill the Black Wolf Clan. Diba also thought about resisting, but helplessly, these black wolf clans, who were only good at fighting at close range with wolf fangs and claws, were no match for those outsiders who were good at using weapons.

The outsiders soon took over Solang Springs and drove the Black Wolf Clan into the Jungle. From time to time, they will come to the jungle around the jungle to provoke the black wolf clan and disrupt their lives. The Black Wolf Clan who surrendered were trained to be slaves, and those who dared to resist were killed.

Diba's initial anger and grief turned into deep self-remorse. Before him, his ancestors, as the leader of the Black Wolf Clan, protected the entire clan very well, but he could only watch the disaster befall the clan, but there was nothing he could do, only secretly distressed.

Is it tied up and waiting to perish? Or fight to the death and gamble on the honor and courage of the black wolf clan?

It was not an easy decision to make, because as the leader of the Black Wolf Clan, he was responsible for the entire clan. If they hide in the dense forest and use the advantages of the environment to fight guerrilla warfare with the other party, maybe they can live for a while longer, if they directly confront them, the entire black wolf clan is likely to be wiped out in a short period of time.

He spent days without food or sleep, personally patrolling the border between the jungle and the plains, occasionally returning to the place where the tribe had temporarily settled to see his wife Meadow, who was about to give birth.

Meadow looked at his sunken eyes and cheeks, and her heart ached, and she took him by the hand and said to him, "Diba, you are a great leader, but you are also my husband, the one I love the most. We grew up together, everything about you, your mind, I know better than anyone else, I know that you are not afraid of death, no! You just feel lost, for the responsibility on your shoulders, for the calamity we have experienced. However, Mimaram has long told us that we are just a speck of dust in the vast universe, and that our life in the long river of the universe is not even as long as a flower blooms. What we have to do is to face our destiny, even death, it can't stop us from chasing light and warmth. ”

"Are you trying to persuade me to give up my scruples and fight them?" Diba asked as she looked at her wife affectionately.

"I'm asking you to listen to your own heart, and your will as the leader of the Black Wolf Clan. Don't think you're inferior to your ancestors, you are loved and trusted enough to rival any leader. Whatever you choose, I and the rest of my people will support you and follow you until the very end. ”

After Meadow finished speaking, she pressed her forehead to Diba's.

Diba hugged her tightly and replied, "I see! I will fight them, and together with my people, we will put an end to the evil of those outsiders, so that they can no longer carry the darkness to other places. ”

"Diba, do you know why we love Solang Springs so much?" Meadow asked softly.

"Because it is formed by the tears of the goddess, it is the source of life that symbolizes life." Diba replied without thinking.

Meadow moved her face away a little and smiled, "Not entirely for this reason. Don't you notice? It's the only thing on our planet that shines. Mimaram had seen the light of the stars, the white glow that fascinated her, and she left it to us to plant light in our hearts as we live in the dark earth. We love Solang Spring deeply because we love the light. ”

"Meiduo, you have the same broad mind and strong will as the goddess, your beauty is like the spring water of Solang, you are my star. How blessed it is to have you. ”

Diba kissed his wife, who wanted to enjoy the last of her warmth, her soft skin faintly scented. He leaned down, pressed his ears close to her high bulging belly, let her hand caress the tousled hair on the top of his head, closed his eyes, and rested for a moment.

The blessing ceremony has come to an end, and according to Diba's plan, Onibu needs to set off one step ahead of the other clansmen, and take Blackfall from the path to the foot of the flaming volcano. Meadow woke up from Blackfall in her arms and nursed him one last time. How reluctant she was, her infant son, but she had to let go, because this was his only chance to survive.

She kissed him deeply and said to him, "Son, may the gods bless you and grant you eternal health and happiness!" You will live well as the last child of Mimaram and the last hope of the Black Wolf Clan! ”

Tears rolled down Mei Duo's cheeks and dripped on Blackfall's forehead, and I wonder if he also felt his mother's deep back, and he even burst into tears. She finally relented and handed the child to Diba.

Diba took Blackfall and looked into his eyes as bright as Meadow, and said to him as if he were an adult, "Go chase the light, son!" Spend your life fulfilling the dreams of me, your mother, and all of your people. ”

He kissed his son for the first and last time and handed him over to Onibu.

Feeling the weight of the child he was catching with both hands, Onibo nodded firmly at Diba and Meadow, and tied the baby firmly around his neck. Then he transformed into a wolf and ran towards the end of the dense forest under the expectant eyes of everyone.

Diba quickly put away his heartache and, in an encouraging tone, exclaimed to his people: "Go, my brothers and sisters! Let's go! We have to buy time for Onibu and Blackfall, and we have to regain the honor of the Black Wolf Clan! With our courage and with our fangs and claws, tear through the defenses of those demons, bite off their necks and weapons, and put an end to their sins. Today will be the time for the Black Wolf Clan, victory is ours, let's tell outsiders who is the true master of this planet! ”

He transformed into a giant black wolf and howled at the blood moon in the sky.

The people also followed him back into wolf form, and they responded to him with their own howls behind him, and in doing so, they showed their determination to fight with him.

Diba led the wolves and ran in the direction of Solang Spring.

On the other side, the ghost cloth had reached the end of the dense forest, and although it was fast, its steps were light, and the bumps did not make the baby tied around his neck cry, but made him fall asleep. It tried to bypass the Plains of Night, looking for the path he knew. That path was actually a naturally formed crack in the ground of the Black Meteor, and this crack could only be passed through by a maximum of one Black Wolf Clan. Outsiders, on the other hand, are much larger than them, so they can't enter this gap, so they are relatively hidden.

It finally found the entrance to the rift, and cautiously jumped down, avoiding the raised stones on both sides, and ran as hard as it could. If it managed to make it to the end of the rift, it would have to travel on the surface for a while before entering another similar crev, which led right next to the boulder at the foot of the flaming volcano.

The first crack passed through smoothly, and Onibu poked his head out to observe the movement on the ground. Two outsiders were not far away, standing with their backs to it, seemingly on patrol duty. Onibu glared at them angrily, and it was they who had taken the life of his father, who was dependent on him.

These outsiders have dark brown skin, are two meters tall, have long limbs and necks, heads that resemble fish, and two whiskers on the sides of their lips.

Both outsiders had weapons in their hands, and Onibu hesitated to risk running behind them, it would have done so without Blackfall, but now it was carrying the last hope of the Black Wolf Clan, the children of Diba and Meadow. So it decided to wait quietly for a while to see if the two outsiders would leave.
