Ian looked up and saw that the sky had darkened. He thought to himself, in fact, God would also be sad, otherwise he would not have shed "tears" at the right time.

Dennis tied a hiking rope around his waist and fell down the cliff little by little. Soon he saw Ian, who was curled up on a raised stone, dark red blood dripping from the glaring wound on his hand, dripping beneath his feet, painted in a beautiful pattern, like a rose.

Dennis gestured for Green above him to stretch the rope a little longer. Green did so, and he landed beside Ian.

He held out his hand to Ian, "Let's go, let's go up." ”

Ian slowly got up, and Dennis noticed how serious the wound on his hand was, and the white bones could be faintly seen. Dennis looked up and looked up from where Ian was, and saw a distinct trail of blood, reflected on the sharp stones.

"You're too impulsive. "If you do go down, you're dead." ”

Ian smiled bitterly and said weakly, "I just want to save him." ”

Once again, Ian felt the fragility of life. A good big living person, a few minutes ago, was still talking to himself, and after a few minutes, he couldn't even find the body. The disaster came so fast that everyone didn't react, and a big living person was gone.

When Ian was brought back to the cliff by Dennis, he saw everyone sitting around. Nicole was gently patting Quintina on the back, and Quintina looked dumbfounded, looking at the dagger at her feet, the last thing Aris had left behind.

"You're such a madman. Green grinned, "You dare to jump." ”

Ian wasn't in the mood to pay attention to Green right now, and he walked straight ahead of Quintina. Quintina didn't look at him, but Nicole looked up and saw the wound on Ian's hand, and her face changed.

"Sit down, I'll bandage it for you. ”

Ian didn't refuse, and sat down with Nicole. Nicole took out the gauze from her backpack, applied hemostatic medicine, and began to bandage Ian, but the bandaging was still very painful. In the past, when Nicole bandaged Ian, Ian would hum, but today he didn't, he just stared at Quintina, wanting to say something, but he didn't know what to say.

Dennis untied the leash and walked over to Ian.

"Do you see what it is?"

Ian shook his head, then nodded again.

"I saw it, but I didn't see it clearly, it was a black mess. "When I jumped, I saw it burrow into the swamp, and then it didn't move." ”

"That's a dragon. Quintina spoke suddenly.

Dragon?!

Quintina's words stunned both Ian and Dennis. The two of them hadn't thought about the dragons yet, after all, they didn't know what dragons would hide in the swamp.

"How do you know it's a dragon?" Dennis asked.

"Golden pupils. Quintina closed her eyes slightly, and two lines of tears slipped from the corners of her eyes, "I saw it, it was a golden pupil, a golden pupil that only dragons have." ”

With that, Ian remembered. Before that monster suddenly appeared, the dragon flame mark on his arm also felt like a burning pain, the dragon flame mark had such a situation a few times before, it was all when he encountered the dragon clan, so this time it should be right, it was indeed a dragon.

"If it's a dragon, it must be a dragon that hasn't been recorded in the hall. "Because I've never heard of dragons hiding in the swamp, dragons are a very proud race, and hiding in the swamp is a degrading status symbol for them. ”

"Alright, now it's time to talk about what kind of dragon it is. Colby's voice trembled a little, and he must have been greatly shocked by the scene just now, "We should get out of here before that damn dragon reappears." ”

Colby's words sounded a little uncomfortable, but I had to admit that he had a point. Indeed, whether the monster just now was a dragon or not, it had already swallowed Arris, and Aris was dead, a fact that could not be changed. They obviously couldn't expect the monster to keep Aris in his stomach and wait for them to save him.

"I'm not leaving. Quintina suddenly opened her eyes, her misty eyes filled with determination, "Whether that thing is a dragon or not, I'm going to kill it." ”

Ian opened his mouth to say something, but he still didn't know what to say.

"He's dead, little girl. "I know you're sad, he's a good man, and I'm not feeling good." But we're going to move on after all, he's dead. ”

Quintina ignored Colby and stared at Ian. Ian, on the other hand, saw a determination in her eyes as if he were at home, and at the same time, he felt a touch of pity and pity.

Is she begging herself?

"If you go down, you'll die. Ian whispered.

"I know. Quintina bit her lip and said, "I want you to help me." ”

"But our mission is to find the elves. ”

Ian had to say this, although he also wanted to kill the monster just now, otherwise he wouldn't have thought of anything and jumped off the cliff in the first place. But after calming down, it was difficult for him to make the decision he had just made.

He's going to find the elves, he can't die here. It's not because he's afraid of death, it's because there's another person waiting for him.

If he dies here, then the Messiah, there really is no hope.

"Is that so?" Quintina's eyes dimmed for a moment, and she shook her head bitterly, "Okay then. ”

"I'm sorry. ”

"Nothing to be sorry for, but I want to ask you one more thing. ”

"What's the matter?"

"I want to leave. ”

Ian's eyelids thumped. He knew what Quintina meant, and she was leaving the team and going down alone to avenge Arris. But what is the difference between this and death-seeking? How can she, just a member of the law enforcement team, accomplish something that even hunters can't do?

"You're sending you to death. ”

"Perhaps. ”

Quintina slowly got up, walked past Ian, and walked alone to the cliff. Ian clenched his fists tightly, the rain drenching his hair.

"Brother El, what is the most important thing about being a hunter?"

"Well, let me think about it, it's a companion. ”

"Why, fellow?"

"Because only companions can distinguish a hunter from a prey. ”

"Wait. ”

Quintina stopped, looked back in confusion, and saw Ian slowly getting up. At that moment, another image suddenly appeared in Quintina's mind.

The black-clothed young man in the dark night, and the pale golden long knife like the moon.

Ian put the guardian on his back, looked into Quintina's eyes, and said word by word, "I'll go with you." ”
