Chapter 190: Master (11)
Where do you go?
Come back, please, don't leave me here alone!
......
After a brief loss of consciousness, Iko Tsujido shook her head and expelled the illusion.
This is an accident, and I have not been abandoned by anyone! Don't be afraid!
While thinking like this, she summoned up the courage not to extinguish hope.
In front of him, more than a dozen orcs were half-encircled, and the encirclement was gradually tightened. With each further push, Tsujido Iko took a step back, and soon her back was against the tree behind her, with no way back.
In this case, Tsujido Iko can only hold the staff in her hand tightly and prepare to fight desperately. Just then, something flew in from outside the orc encirclement.
It was a black projectile, and when it hit the ground, it suddenly exploded into a large smoke screen, engulfing the orc and Tsujido Iko together.
"Ahem......" Izuko Tsujido, who was choked by the smoke, couldn't help coughing in the environment where she couldn't see her fingers, and at the same time subconsciously raised her right hand to cover her mouth and nose.
However, before she could lift her hand, someone else grabbed her. Then the man pulled her and ran in one direction.
Although Tsujido Iko had expected it when she saw the smoke bomb, she was still taken aback when she rushed out of the smoke screen and saw Min Wei, the person who was pulling her running in front of her.
"You ......"
"Whew!"
Iko Tsujido was about to say something when she was interrupted by the roar of the orcs behind her.
Now compared to the time when Hauge was rescued, the danger is more than doubled, and it is indeed not the time to be distracted from the conversation. Therefore, Tsujido Iko closed her mouth and just let Min Wei pull her in front of her.
Min Wei, the leader, was very anxious, he wanted to fly back to the mansion immediately, but the embarrassment of the current situation did not even allow him to carefully choose the direction of progress. And if the two of them just blindly escape, sooner or later they will fall into a desperate situation.
What should I do in this situation? What can I do to turn the situation around?
Just when he was anxious, a huge dead tree suddenly appeared in front of Min Wei's eyes.
A cavern has been carved out at the base of the black dry trunk, and the space looks vast, but the entrance to the cave is only half the size of a man, which is called the wilderness safety zone.
Seeing this, Min Wei couldn't help but get excited and shouted, "I'm sorry, Miss Tsujido!"
What's going on?
Tsujido Iko had just had a doubt, and Min Wei forcefully pulled her from behind to her in front of her. Immediately, Min Wei hugged Tsujido Iko, and then jumped up and slid directly into the hole of the dead wood.
Seeing this, the orcs who followed couldn't help but stop in front of the huge dead wood. The half-human size of the hole was obviously too small for their size, but the guys were not willing to chase after their prey for so long and run away, so they roared furiously, brandished clubs and struck the huge dead wood.
However, the reason why a safe zone is called a safe zone is that although it is in the wild, the terrain components are completely different from other terrain items, and they will never be damaged no matter how they withstand an attack.
Therefore, no matter how much the orcs struck, they could not shake the dead wood, and over time they had no choice but to leave.
Min Wei and Tsujido Iko, who had been hugging each other in the tree hole, noticed that the pursuers were gradually dispersing, and finally breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. Then, Min Wei also came back to his senses and noticed the extremely embarrassing situation.
"I'm sorry!" he exclaimed in a panic as he hurriedly let go of Tsujido Iko and retreated into the distance.
He made such a move suddenly, and Tsujido Iko didn't react for a while but was a little puzzled, but quickly realized it, and a flash of crimson flashed on her face.
"It's okay, there's no way around it. That's right, thank you. ”
"No thanks, that's what I'm supposed to do. Anyway, what are we going to do next?"
"Hide like this for a while, and then depending on the situation outside. ”
"Well, that's all there is to it. Then I'll send a message to Hauge first. ”
"Hmm. ”
After discussing, Min Wei immediately dialed Hauge's phone.
"You're still alive!" Hauge exclaimed excitedly when he heard Min Wei's voice, and Luqiu and Liluvia, who had gathered around him, also showed reassuring expressions.
"Great!
"Well, Hauge, are you crying?"
"No! such a bad thing, how could Uncle Ben do it!" shouted, Hauge wiped his eyes, "That's right! That's it...... How's that woman doing?"
"Miss Tsujido, she's fine, we're hiding in the safe zone now, just to tell you that you're safe. ”
"And then, when are you coming back?"
"Well, it depends. So, that's it, what's the matter to get in touch again. ”
After the contact, Min Wei and Tsujido Iko each occupied two sides of the big tree hole and sat opposite each other. After a moment of silence, Tsujido Iko looked up at Min Wei, and then opened her mouth: "Why did you come back?"
"Why?" Min Wei replied stunned, "Of course, it's because I can't leave Miss Tsujido alone!"
"Didn't you think you'd get yourself in?"
"Thought. However, as expected, Miss Tsujido could not be left alone. Sacrificing another person for my own safety is something I don't want to do a second time in my life. ”
"The second time?"
"Not long ago, the four of us just sacrificed a partner. ”
"Is that the man named 'Wen Daoru' that Hauge wants to avenge him?"
"Hmm. Wen Daolu is a very powerful person! The level is obviously not much higher than ours, but the strength is much higher, and if the usual monsters of this level are concerned, he can deal with three of them alone! He also has a good personality, is very gentle to people, very tolerant, and takes great care of us, it is he who brought us to this point half a year ago when the four of us couldn't cope with a goblin. And then, finally, too...... Finally...... Sacrificed himself so that we could escape from that dragonman. ”
As he spoke, Min Wei couldn't help choking up. He didn't understand why he would behave like this in front of Izuko Tsujido, who hadn't been with him for a long time, but in retrospect, he hadn't cried at all since Wen Daolu's death.
The boy doesn't flick when he has tears, but he hasn't reached the sad place.
The scene of Min Wei sobbing falling in the eyes of Iko Tsujido made her feel a little uncomfortable in her heart.
"I'm sorry to make you sad. ”
"Don't be like this, it's me who said it myself, and it has nothing to do with Miss Tsujido. By the way, shouldn't we go and take a look at the situation?" said Min Wei, wiping his eyes and standing up.
"Hmm. Nodding in response, Tsujido Iko also stood up.
The two crept out of the tree hole and cautiously split up to scout around, hoping to find a safe way back to the mansion, but were disappointed to find that the orcs had just surrounded the area, and it was too dangerous to pass through them.
In addition, there is another thorny problem, that is, because they were too panicked when they escaped, and the two got lost.
There was no choice but to adopt the strategy of holding on and waiting for help.
Hughes Adolphu's letter said that he would come over in three days, and although I don't know how he said three days, if not tomorrow, it should be the day after tomorrow.
At that time, the only way to ask Hauge and them to ask Hughes Adolphu to come to the rescue, his words must be in and out of this forest as if they were in a no-man's land.
After finalizing the plan, Min Wei contacted Hauge and the others again, and the only thing he and Tsujido Iko did was sit dryly in the hollow of the tree and just stay like nothing without saying anything.
Time flew by in silence, and as night fell, the temperature began to drop.
Not long after, Tsujido Iko, who was originally sitting with her knees hugged, couldn't help but move her hands to hug her body.
Seeing this, Min Wei stood up and walked towards Tsujido Iko, materializing a large blanket.
"Do you want to use this?" asked Min Wei as he handed the blanket to Tsujido Iko.
After thinking for a moment, Tsujido Iko nodded.
"Thank you. She took the blanket and wrapped it around her, while Min Wei sat down beside her, looking at her with an embarrassed expression.
"What's wrong?" asked, Tsujido Iko.
Min Wei pointed to the blanket more and more embarrassedly.
"This, I only have one, so ......" Min Wei saw that Tsujido Iko's face was a little red and immediately waved his hand, "It doesn't seem to be convenient." That's okay, you can use it alone, I'm fine. ”
"It doesn't matter. Speaking blandly, Tsujido Iko handed the corner of the blanket to Min Wei. The latter smiled happily when he saw that the other party understood his thoughts.
This blanket is not small, even if the two of them wrap it, they don't actually have to stick together, they just get close together.
"Well, doesn't Miss Tsujido have a camping suit?" asked Min Wei after wrapping the blanket.
"My economy is not that rich. ”
"Oh. Min Wei replied confidently. He wondered if he would be suspected of showing off his wealth in the eyes of Tsujido Iko, but in fact, he was not very rich, so it could only be said that Tsujido Iko's wallet was a little flatter.
"Speaking of which, Miss Tsujido is alone. ”
"Hmm. ”
"Why is it alone? Supporters should be in high demand. ”
"I've only been a supporter for half a year, and there are a lot of things that I haven't done quite well. It's okay to do odd jobs, but it's hard to join a long-term team. Another reason is that I don't want to be just a person who listens to orders. If you don't say anything and just blindly endure it, sooner or later you will be treated as a dispensable person. ”
"Well, I wanted to ask before, did anything bad happen to Miss Tsujido? Of course! If you don't want to say it, don't force it!"
"Nothing, yes. Iko Tsujido lowered her head, her consciousness a little hazy, "You asked me today if I used to be a tank, right?" ”
"Hmm. ”
"I did. A year ago, I was part of a five-person squad. At that time, I chose the tank because I wanted to protect my partner. We went on adventures together for a long time, and I felt like they were my family here, until one day we had a crisis that seemed to be impossible to solve. During the battle, they fled on their own while I was in front of us. ”
"What!"
"It's actually nothing, everyone has a time to be afraid, and it's also my will to protect them, and in fact, there is also a sense of sacrifice, this is a tank player. What I couldn't accept was that they didn't come to me after the situation turned around, but invited another tank, and then cut off contact with me. This one is also ...... It's too much, isn't it?"
As she spoke, Tsujido Yiko showed a helpless wry smile to Min Wei. At this moment, Min Wei felt an abnormal heartache.
Miss Tsujido doesn't have to feel sorry for these guys at all!
Min Wei wanted to respond like this, but he opened his mouth and closed it without saying anything.
Probably this sentence is not a comfort for Tsujido Iko. She was hurt precisely because she couldn't help but care about the bonds between her companions, and it was impossible for her not to care.
I see! Thinking about it like this, Min Wei felt a sudden realization.
Why did she hesitate before refusing when she invited Iko Tsujido to dinner? Why did she eat the food she cooked for the four of them without changing her color? Why did she taste Luqiu's baked biscuits so carefully?
Min Wei understood all this.
Tsujido Iko, she wants a companion, but she is seriously injured because of her betrayal, and she probably doesn't know whether to do it or not, and who to take off her defenses.
She must have been worried, "What if she is betrayed again"?
Thinking like this, Min Wei said sincerely, "If Miss Tsujido doesn't mind, stay in our team like this." I swear, we will never abandon you!"
I always feel that I have a good dream, and since it is a dream, I don't have to worry too much.
So, Tsujido Iko muttered so softly, "Hmm...... All right. ”
As the words fell, she unconsciously leaned on Min Wei's shoulder and fell asleep.
Seeing this, Min Wei whispered a few dry laughs in embarrassment.
"Hehe, no way, I'm really too tired today. Saying this, Min Wei's eyelids also relaxed. So, he simply closed his eyes and leaned his head back against the trunk of the tree, and soon fell asleep as well.
