Chapter 18: The Return
The dagger waved its arm slightly, and there was another explosion sound, and countless monsters were blown to pieces. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
A radius of dozens of miles was full of stumps and unknown liquids, and he glanced at it, and there was still a steady stream of monsters rushing towards him in the distance, and then he looked up at the sky again.
"Your punishment has come after all, and this day is about to change again. ā
After saying that, the whole person rose into the air quickly like an arrow from the string, and the giant eagle seemed to have been called by something, and rushed down quickly, and after a while, the dagger stood on its back, slowly appearing in front of everyone's eyes.
The noisy scene suddenly fell silent, and more than a dozen pairs of eyes all stopped on him.
"There are no weak people who can appear here, because the weak people are left behind. ā
"Looking forward to your performance in the duo. ā
After he finished speaking, he did not hesitate to set out on the way home.
When I came, there were dozens of people, a large team of nearly 100 people, and when I went back, there were only a dozen people left, looking at the empty eagle's back, some people sighed, some people were sad, some people were sad, some people were worried.
People who survived the catastrophe comforted each other and mourned the deceased.
came and went quickly, and Wind and Fire City gradually appeared in the eyes of everyone.
The library in the center of the city, where the giant tree is located, looks so eye-catching, and the people below are crowded.
Slowly, the giant eagle began to descend, and finally landed slowly.
"Those who stand here are heroes, and those who have not come back should also be praised for their bravery. ā
As soon as the words of the dagger fell, many women hid their faces and wept, and many men's eyes were also a little moist, but they didn't cry, they hugged their women tightly and comforted them.
Although it was dark, Rai had seen Uncle Kenco's family early, his stout figure was so obvious at night, and Vile was also sitting on his shoulder and waving at him, and her heart had already flown to them.
The dagger said some more words of comfort to the deceased, and finally ordered the disbandment.
Rai said goodbye to the people around him, jumped down from the giant eagle, and ran towards Kenco and them.
"Lay remembered to me that I will beat you in a duet. ā
Kiki yelled at Rai from behind, and Rai turned around and smiled at him as he ran.
It doesn't matter if he doesn't shout, everyone looks at Rai.
Qi Xi's strength is well known, not to mention many adult hunters, and even the city lord praises him.
Among those who came back alive, many of them looked at Lai with some change in their eyes.
After a night of traveling, the sun finally came down on the earth again, and the first rays of light shone on the earth, just enveloping Lai in it, and he seemed to be the center of the world.
Rai stood still and stretched out his hand to block the light in front of him, although the light after the catastrophe came a little late, but its dazzle did not change in the slightest.
Kenco had already squeezed through the crowd to his side.
"Good boy, it's good to be back!"
Kenko didn't make a loud voice, because he didn't want to irritate the sad parents around him.
"Let's go!"
Kenco lowered Vale off her shoulders and put her arm around Rai's shoulders to peel off the crowd and walk out, and Vale followed him as she always walked towards the mistress of the house.
The man in the crowd wore a hat and hid his face in the darkness, he looked up at the eagle's back, but he didn't find the person he was looking for, he quickly reached out and wiped his eyes, turned and walked outside.
Kiki said goodbye to the three brothers and walked out of the crowd himself, knowing that his father would never attend such an occasion.
The slightly lonely back is even more depressed in the gradually expanding sun.
The three brothers jumped off the eagle and hugged each other, then walked towards their mother, who was waiting for them in the distance.
Ten days seem to have passed through centuries, the boundary between life and death seems to become less obvious, and everyone is much braver than imagined in the face of death.
On the way home, the crowd gradually thinned out.
From time to time, a few figures walked by, some sad and some happy, and no one would pay attention to them.
"You kid has been gone for ten days, why has your hair grown so long, your beard has grown, and you have a whole body of clothes, but it's a little torn......"
For the first time, Kenko talked so much, and many questions were asked one after another.
Rielly tugged at him, glanced at him, and motioned for him not to have so many questions.
"Oh, I was negligent, you can rest for a while, and then come back and tell me what happened. ā
A few people talked about the events in the town in a relaxed manner along the way, and time always passed very fast during the conversation.
The familiar wooden house gradually became solid in sight, and Lai let out a long breath, and some unreal feelings along the way vanished at this moment.
Kenco pushed open the wooden door, although the house is not big, but the kind of warmth that makes people feel comfortable both physically and mentally is indeed nostalgic.
"Wash up and rest! ā
Kenko said, gesturing to Rai's room.
Rai nodded, and walked out with the bucket.
Since he came back, he found that since absorbing those unknown red liquids, his body's recovery ability was amazingly strong, and some of the almost fatal injuries on his body had almost recovered by the time he returned to Wind and Fire City.
Now at the doorstep, the minor injuries have healed. The serious injury also had a bloody scab.
He shaved off his long hair with a dagger, cleaned the beard from his face, washed it from head to toe, and washed away all the dust and blood.
Dressed in a new fur coat, he lay on the bed he hadn't seen for a long time, but he couldn't sleep for a long time, he touched the necklace, raised it to his face and looked at it deeply.
Then he put it down again and fell asleep.
The vague figure in the dream, which had not appeared for a long time, appeared again, still telling him something, and he still couldn't hear clearly.
"Brother......
The sudden sound of a call in his ears pulled him out of his sleep, and Wei'er's little face came into view.
"Let's go eat!"
Vile shook him with her little hands as she spoke, and Rai sat up from the bed, rubbing her hair dotingly, and the two of them frolicked.
"Why didn't you see that big brother named Xi?"
Wei'er suddenly asked Rai, who was smiling and his face was stunned in the air.
He snorted and said:
"She's been far away. ā
"Where is that?"
"Where her mother went, there was no place for sorrow. ā
Rai returned to a faint smile after speaking.
"Let's go, let's eat. ā
Rai suddenly jumped out of bed, messed up her freshly cut hair once more, and ran quickly out of the bedroom.
"You stop ...... me"
With a pout, Valle got up from the side of the bed and chased after him.
Kenco and Ryerly had already taken their seats, but when they both came over, they smiled and motioned for them both to sit down.
"Lai is a double in a few days, you have a good rest, and when the time comes, you can't just surrender. ā
Kenko said as he didn't forget it, and stuffed another piece of meat into his mouth.
"Our Jialai is not weak, didn't you look at that kid who is called, and you are still shouting to defeat our Jialai?"
Riarley pursed her lips in disdain.
"Really, did you two fight each other? Tell us about it. ā
Lay thought about it for a moment and casually made up a story to tell.
He didn't want to hide it from them, but this matter was too bizarre, and there were too many unknown factors, who knew if it was someone's conspiracy, and he didn't plan to say it until he investigated it clearly, otherwise it might bring them death.
Although it was made up, the three of them still listened to it with relish, and Lai secretly smiled bitterly in his heart, he didn't expect that he was quite good at telling stories.
"Storytelling ......"
A faint sound came out as Rai's throat vibrated and he felt a pain in his head when he thought of these three words, but he didn't know why.
He muttered a few more times, but nothing happened.
After eating in the story, Rylli refuses Rai's request for help and asks him to go back to rest.
Rai held on for a while, but she couldn't help but go back honestly.
Although Wei'er wanted to play with him, she was taken out by Kenko, saying that she was taking her to play, but in fact, she didn't want her to disturb Lai's rest.
This time it was a bitter moment, and he stayed in his room all afternoon, lying on the bed and looking out the window at the endless green lawn in a daze.
Time always moves very slowly when there is nothing to do, which is uncomfortable but impossible to refuse.
In the evening, the family was still eating, chatting about what had happened in the past few days.
For the next week, Lay didn't go hunting.
The only thing he went out was to stand at the door of his house, watching the slowly rising sun and exercising.
The day of the double match is approaching again, and Rai got up early to stand at the door and exercise.
The first rays of sunlight swept over the necklace he hung on his chest, and a voice with a sinking magic sounded faintly.
"You're up early today!"
Rai, who was warming up, froze, and his lips trembled a little.
"Circulation?"
"Ah! it's me. ā
The voice was still cold, but it still responded to her.
"Hahahahaha...... You're finally awake. ā
The necklace on Lai's chest suddenly emitted a burst of blood-red light, and then turned into a streamer, pointing directly at the ground beside Lai.
A familiar figure, dressed in her peculiar blood-red robes, watched the sun on the edge of the world stand side by side with Rai.
"You haven't told me yet, how did you get out?"
Xun turned around and stretched out his jade hand, stroking the necklace around his neck.
"Because of it, there is a power on it that is not much different from mine. ā
"I used too much power to get out, and I took a lot of it out of it, so you might not be able to drive it. ā
She said that she stroked the flowing gold on Lai's wrist, and the blood-red light flowed, and the flowing gold seemed to emit a cheerful beep, and it seemed to come alive at this moment.
"Play well in the game. ā
Xun patted him on the shoulder, turning into a streamer and flying back to the necklace.
Lai was stunned for a moment and then asked:
"When did you wake up?"
"When you first arrived at this house. ā
"it!"
Rai touched his nose, you saw it when I was in the shower!
"Hmmm......"
Once again, the scene was awkward.
Although he was a little shy, he still couldn't suppress the pleasure in his heart, anyway, he really came out before, which also made his heart lift, let go.
