Chapter 31: Convergence (Part II)
"Thank you, Professor Pacian...... Wait, Professor Pacian?"
"I'm glad to see you again, Professor Pacion," Faust hugged Professor Pacion with open arms, "we've found you, you don't know how worried I am...... By the way, did you see Reinhardt?"
"No, when I woke up, none of you were there, only ...... Only Jebido's body was still there, and I was terrified, so I picked a random direction and started running. The professor frowned, as if remembering some bad experience.
"That's terrible. "As soon as they fought, old Hama and I ran away, and all I know is that Gaunt is chasing Kuazza and I don't know where to go...... Did anything else happen after that?"
The professor touched his head, "I don't know, I seem to have fainted? It's strange, how did I pass out......"
Faust hurriedly snorted, "Ahaha, maybe he was injured by mistake." Faust felt that the idea that there was a powerful spirit in this labyrinth that controlled itself to attack the professor" was too bizarre to be believed, so he simply planned to fool around.
The professor accepted the idea, "You have a point, Mr. Faustus." The professor continued, "So, let's go find Reinhardt and them?"
"Uh......" Faust fell into embarrassment, "that...... Professor Pacian, I think we must first go back to the same path we came from, so that we can find Reinhardt and them more easily. Faust vaguely points out the fact that he has lost his way.
Professor Pacien rubbed his hair in annoyance, "That's not going to be easy......
Faust hurriedly handed over the map, now is not the time to hide it, "This...... I just found out when I was packing my bags - it turns out that I've been pressing it to the bottom. ”
The gloom on the professor's face swept away, and he winked playfully, as if he didn't understand, and nodded as if understandingly, "Ah, that's great, it's always better to have a map than not to have it at all." ”
The professor took the map, looked at it twice, and then pointed to one of the inconspicuous locations, "Look, we're all here, you see, I'm from here......"
The old toad quietly took two steps back—he had no interest in Professor Pacion's cartography or any other. However, it would not be bad if he could escape like this, the old toad thought aimlessly.
“...... So, you see, we take this road, and when we get to the second turn and turn left, we can go back to the original passage. Professor Pacien took off the bladder and took a sip.
Faust slapped his thigh, "Aha! Faust's face was excited, he stood up, and walked back and forth twice excitedly, "Without further ado, I will leave you now." ”
"That's right, we need to find Reinhardt as soon as possible, I always think this maze is weird. The professor agreed with Faust's decision.
"Die!"
"Wow~~" Reinhardt's blade was blocked again.
This time, the two didn't fight together - Gaunt's injuries were so severe that he was hiding at the turn in the aisle for Annabella to treat him.
He ...... Can Reinhardt win?" Annabella's hand brushed over Gaunt's wound, and tiny green dots of light fell from her palm, falling into the wound, turning into emerald green threads that sutured the wound together. The wounds that were stitched by the green light were squirming and healing quickly.
The big man Gaunt was leaning on the stone wall, his skin was unhealthy white, and even so, he managed to pull out a smile, "It's going to be fine, Reinhardt is much better than me, even an opponent I can handle, he can't deal with it for no reason." ”
"But, but, ......" Annabella snorted, Reinhardt's condition was not very good, and the death of Jebido had a huge impact on him, and Annabella was afraid that it would affect his normal performance.
"Nothing. Gaunt's complexion was a little better, and he could even wave his hand to show that he didn't care, "Since you two are here, what about Jebido? He seems to be injured, is the professor taking care of him?"
"Jay, Jebido......" Annabella stammered - Gaunt and Jebido were orphans, they had grown up together, closer than brothers, and she couldn't tell what it really was.
"Jebido...... He, he had broken his foot, and he couldn't come with us, and now he went back to the cave alone. Annabella had an idea, and although this lie was not destined to last long, it was nothing compared to letting the injured hear bad news.
"Ho~~~" Kuaza roared angrily and jumped forward, the long knife sweeping Reinhardt's waist with the whirring sound of the wind.
Reinhardt was defenseless, instead, he raised his sword and greeted Kuazza in the face.
"Damn ......" Kuazza dodged Reinhardt's attack with a light leap back, this kind of wound-for-life attack was very annoying, but he was helpless - Kuaza was so badly injured that any wound could be the last straw that broke the camel's back, and Reinhardt was almost intact at this point, and with his current strength, he could never be knocked down in a single move.
Kuazza had tried to bypass Reinhardt and contain him by attacking Annabella and Gaunt, but at this point, the seemingly crazy Reinhardt was always able to defend without leaks.
Kuazza finally got a taste of what Gaunt felt not so long ago, when he turned Gaunt around with his agility and fighting skills far beyond Gaunt.
But now it was the other way around, and although Reinhardt did not have the skill of his own, he did the same thing with his agility, abundant physical strength, and intact body.
Kuaza felt like he was almost losing his mind, the last string in his head as if it was going to burst at any moment—but he desperately suppressed it, and in such a lonely situation, using his unique berserk abilities would be tantamount to suicide—even if he could burst out and kill Reinhardt, with his heavy injuries, he would probably die of exhaustion.
But it was too much of a reproach to ask a barbarian to keep his sanity in a full-strength fight, and finally, Kuazza couldn't stand it anymore.
"Death is death! I'll it!" Kuaza's sanity finally came offline, his eyes reddening as if they could drip blood at any moment—he unleashed his own rage.
Gaunt's rage was just a rise in strength and stamina, while an excess of testosterone and adrenaline would temporarily inhibit his rational thinking.
But Kuaza's fury is very different from Gaunt's.
After the rage, Kuaza's flesh squirmed and swelled rapidly, his height doubled to almost the ceiling, and his tense muscles squeezed the wound, which soon stopped bleeding, leaving only a slit in its place, and the bone fragments were pulled back into place by the muscles, as if the left arm of a dead snake had never been injured.
"Goo-goo...... Quack!" Kuazza let out a loud, terrifying croak.
