Jin Ming trembled and stretched out his hematoma's hands towards the stream, which was stained with the blood of his own or his enemies. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info he no longer felt the pain, instead a feeling of swelling and itching. As soon as his hands touched the clear water, the dark red blood stains that had solidified on his hands spread out like the fog of the early morning. The blood was barely visible after being diluted by the stream, and it was still crystal clear, but he knew that the blood had flowed downstream along the stream. Downstream, there are more tribal warriors drinking water, and I wonder if they will feel the salty and sweet taste of blood.

He plunged his face, also stained with blood, mud, and sweat, deep into the stream, letting some cold water wash his cheeks. After a brief wash, he sat down on the grass behind him, looking around, listening to the abuse, wailing, and complaining......

Surrounded by a not-so-luxuriant forest, the sparse foliage also helps them block out the view of the sky. The temperature was slightly cool, which also caused some of the wounds on the body to clot into blood scabs. He didn't know exactly where he was now, so he could only remember with what little strength he had: after they reached the west side of the North Source Road, they captured Sunset City and captured three Qingyun City soldiers...... Immediately afterwards, the small leader of the tribal hunters, who had been stationed in the depths of the savage western wilderness, suddenly came in disarray and brought them a thunderbolt-the tribe was always attacked by the Dark Alliance, asking for their support. But the irony is that their purpose this time is to support.

He should have thought of this hidden danger a long time ago, and they transferred all their troops out of the main camp, without considering that the lair of the Dark Alliance was in the abyss of death, right behind them. In this way, it is equivalent to exposing one's back to the enemy, which is the softest and most vulnerable, where the elderly, women, and children will be miserable. He didn't even think about it, he only thought about how to take Qingyun City back for Qingkong, and was carried away by this idea.

As soon as the news spread in the camp where the army was stationed, thousands of tribal warriors roared, their children, women, and parents were waiting for their protection, and now they were thousands of miles away. After a few days of going back and forth, they couldn't bear a second's delay, and immediately someone rode back without authorization, and with one of them, the tribal camp was in chaos in an instant, and the military order could no longer stop them. In the end, there were less than 4,000 people left in the original army of more than 10,000, and most of the dwarves and hunters left. The three tribal leaders were angry and helpless, and even the giants, who had always been reluctant to show their emotions, had a solemn face. In the end, they could not allow their army to split in two, and agreed not to continue the attack on the Dark Alliance, which was still besieging the capital of Makino, and to return to the tribal camp before it was too late.

But in fact, how could it not be too late? When they came in the opposite direction, they had only been walking for half a day when they were attacked. It was a slaughter more brutal than any army they had ever encountered, purple rock monsters, sorcerers in printed robes who manipulated evil dark arts, evil elves who were black and purple but thin and small, and rebels of all other races, who were either black and purple in their skin or black and purple clothes. Without command, without united morale, and with the army in a state of fragmentation, a rout was inevitable. They fled as they fouled, but countless "black and purple" came at them, and huge black birds flew in the sky, and various monsters were also ridden on them, leaving them exposed to the enemy's vision at all times.

The melee left the warriors of the three tribes in separate camps - the dwarven leader led his brothers to the dune path on the northern side of the wild west, which he thought was closer, and the hunter leader thought the southern road was closer. But no matter which path he takes, Jin Ming knows that the enemy will appear there like a shadow, and unlike the shadows, they are always in front, not behind. After another fierce attack, Jin Ming and a large number of tribal warriors and leaders who followed him dispersed. He didn't know the direction, he just fought everywhere with a mixed army of hundreds of hunters, dwarves, and giants. North, West, South, Except for confirming that it was not the east, Jin Ming was completely confused, but he knew that these tribal warriors behind him needed to take them back by himself, even if there were corpses everywhere.

When night fell, the sense of direction finally returned, and the stars in the sky told him that he was heading southwest. No wonder the temperature in the air is a little cold, it is estimated that if you continue to walk, you will have to walk out of the source of vitality continent and set foot on the ethereal cold continent with ice and snow all year round. But the blackbirds that flew by in the sky did not stop searching for them because of the weather, and the hunters drew their bows and arrows and shot at them, and the giants raised stones and threw them at them, but in vain, they responded with another round of attacks that followed.

Finally, when they found a forest that was not too dense, but enough to obscure the view of the beasts in the sky, his force was less than two hundred men, and nearly half of the wounded were among them......

Thoughts return.

Jin Ming looked at the unfamiliar environment around him, thinking about what they should do next. But no matter what he thought about it, he was embarrassed by the fact that there were only two hundred men - too many if he fled, too few if he faced them head-on. And they can't hide in this forest for the rest of their lives, although the supplies in the forest are quite sufficient at this time, they can't withstand the plundering of two hundred men, and they will soon be exhausted. But if you go out, you will face that group of demons everywhere......

He racked his brains at this point, but he couldn't think of a plan in his mind that made him feel like a turnaround. After struggling for a long time only to return to a headache, he only gave up with a wry smile. With just a few small victories, you really think that you are an invincible and invincible general, and when a truly powerful enemy arrives, you can only flee in the wilderness......

There was a commotion behind him, and he turned around vigilantly, only to realize that it was his wolf bear. The Black Lord's dark red eyes showed a tiredness that it had never felt before, and it grinned its fangs and paced to him, sticking out its tongue and licking his face. The long, thick tongue touched him, and there was a stinging pain in the warmth, and he realized that there was a scar on his face. The tongue coating of the wolf bear is all bones with small hooks, and he has seen the wolf bear lick the face of an enemy with its tongue, and at this time it brings him only a slight itch and warmth.

Jin Ming reached out and stroked the wolf bear's cheek, and found that his hand was a little sticky, he moved his hand to his eyes, and the color of the crimson color was all over his fingers. Only then did he realize that it had countless wounds on its body, only hidden by its dark fur. The wolf bear responded by rubbing his hand with its massive nose.

Suddenly, the wolf bear pricked up its ears, it seemed to hear something, bared its fangs, gasped lowly, its narrow eyes looked at the dark woods behind it, and its body arched ready to attack.

However, coming out of the shadows was Jin Ming's familiar figure, Veri, whose chubby body was twisting and leaning out of the forest, still carrying something in his hand. When he saw the wolf and bear facing him, with an attacking look, a trace of horror flashed on his face, and he hurriedly said, "Lord Jin Ming, it's me, Verry." ”

Although his expression was a little nervous, fortunately, his speech was smooth. Otherwise, when the wolf and bear rush out, he will never be able to speak again.

Jin Ming gently soothed the wolf bear, and it roared and turned and walked into the darkness, as if looking for food. Seeing that the wolf bear had been gone for a long time, Viri cautiously approached him.

What a cautious guy, Jin Ming looked at him, and suddenly the thought in his heart that made him a little disgusted. From Sunset City to this forest, they have experienced dozens of battles, large and small, and the two young soldiers who joined him have long been buried on the battlefield, and he ...... There weren't even a few bloody wounds, some were just minor abrasions, and even the clothes were just a little dirt. The battlefield is chaotic, and whenever he disappears from him, it can't help but make people wonder if he is hiding.

"Are you hungry, sir?" said Verry, handing over his contents.

Jin Ming glanced at the thing in his hand, which turned out to be a charred hare, steaming hot and fragrant. No matter how burnt it was, it was meat, and when hunger hit, he took it and gnawed on it. After eating, he found that although the rabbit was not good-looking, the meat under the charred skin was very tender. When he had eaten the whole hare and only a few bones remained, he realized that Verry was staring at him, his small eyes shining with a delicate light.

"You're very good at hunting?" Jin Ming asked suddenly.

"Why do you say that? Verry asked rhetorically.

Jin Ming stood up, kicked the bones he spit out on the ground with his foot, and said, "I noticed just now that although this rabbit was scorched, its body was intact, and there was no obvious arrow or knife edge, which means-"

"It's still alive when you catch it. ”

He looked at Verry, trying to see something in his face, but still didn't get anything.

"My lord is very observant," said Verry with a smirk, "and it is true that this rabbit was alive when I was in my hands. And it is roasted alive until it is half-cooked, so that the blood in it does not run out prematurely, and the roasted meat will be more delicious. ”

"Really......? It does taste good," Jin Ming seemed to be savoring, but his face sank in an instant, "but—I wonder how you caught it? trap, coercion, or lie?"

"My lord smiled, where did I have that kind of ability, I just used a few wild radish. You must know that whether it is a human or an animal, as long as you use the right method...... For example -- give it some benefit first. In the end, they will all become prey to be slaughtered......" The forest was dim, and Verry may not have seen Jin Ming's face, and said in a somewhat smug tone.

"So, your 'prey' includes me?" Jin Ming said coldly.

Hearing this, Verry's expression flashed with a hint of fear, and he looked at him cautiously.

"Looks like the adults have misunderstood me...... Verry said in a somewhat aggrieved tone.

"Misunderstanding?...... Jin Ming snorted coldly, "I did misunderstand you, I misunderstood that you would fight bravely with your two brothers on the battlefield, but only to leave them to catch hares in the forest." ”

Verry exhaled lightly, as if relieved.

"My lord, although I am a soldier, I believe that if you let me follow you, it shouldn't be just a sword to fight, right?" he saw Jin Ming's expression twitch for a moment, and continued, "If you really think so, it's a pity, I'm just an ordinary soldier, not someone who can bring you thousands of soldiers." ”

After Verry finished speaking, Jin Ming just stared at him, and suddenly he smiled. It's not like happiness or anger, but a sign of helplessness. What did he think he was? a university scholar in the city? He didn't need that position at this time.

"Thousands of soldiers, thousands of soldiers...... Is this your 'wild radish' against me?"

"Even then, my lord, wouldn't you like to gamble?" said Verry in a low voice, bowing slightly.

Jin Ming stopped laughing, he didn't expect Viri to dare to say that. But even if he did, what could he do? could he still kill him at this time? yes, did he have any other ideas? whether he was outspoken or rude and reckless, now that he was trapped in this small wood, the darkness would come to him sooner or later, and solving the immediate trouble was the key. He looked at the person who was bowing slightly in front of him, and he didn't expect to say, "In that case, what good countermeasures do you have for the current situation?" I hope to hear more than just how to catch a live rabbit. ”

Verry's eyes rolled in the small space, and finally stopped, as if he had really thought of a way. But before he could open his mouth to say a word, there were shouts and fights from the downstream of the stream beside him......

Jin Ming immediately tensed his nerves, he knew that it was the group of dark minions who had found them. With a few howls, the wolf and bear rushed to his side, and he dragged his somewhat tired body onto its back, and said to Veri beside him before leaving: "You are right, some people are born to fight, and some people need him to play a role in other things. Continue to defend yourself like you've done in dozens of previous battles, but remember, I hope you'll hear your tactics when they're over. ”

Jin Ming's tone was not full of confidence, especially when he said the word "end". He didn't know what the situation of this attack would be, but it would end anyway, it was just a matter of success or failure.

Before Verry could speak, Jin Ming rode the wolf bear straight downstream, where the tribal warriors needed him.

Verry looked at his departing back, his trademark eyeballs rolling again, this time he did not choose to dodge in the opposite direction of the battle, but chased downstream, where Jin Ming was running.

When Jin Ming rode the wolf bear through several wetlands that were not deep, the surroundings began to become a mess, with broken branches and broken grass stalks everywhere, and the corpses of tribal warriors were indispensable. The sound of the fight was still ahead, getting smaller and smaller, and he couldn't help but speed up.

When he finally saw most of the tribal warriors who had followed him, they had already left the forest and came to a clearing. As far as the eye can see, the original team of more than 200 people, now there are less than 100 people left, fighting against the Demon Rock, Dark Golem, and defectors of other races of the Dark Alliance Army on an open flat land. They must have been forced out of the forest, and then besieged here by enemies several times their number.

Jin Ming didn't have time to think too much, so he drove the wolf and bear into a sprint and plunged into the chaotic battle. The wolf bear swept with its huge head, and instantly picked up a puppet who was performing dark magic in the distance, and the sharp fangs pierced his body, and black and red blood flowed down the transparent wound. After that, the wolf and bear rushed all the way to open the way, and Jin Ming didn't know where to pick up a long sword full of gaps, constantly slashing at the dark coalition forces in black and purple clothes around him.

The speed and strength of the wolf bear burst out unreservedly at this moment, not only dealing a heavy blow to the Dark Alliance, but also boosting morale. After the tribal warriors with less than a hundred people left saw Jin Ming and his wolf bear, their momentum was greatly boosted, and they all tried their best, as if they were about to fight back. But helplessly, the number of dark minions that kept pouring in was several times more than theirs, and when they cut down one, two more rushed over, and the corpses of the tribal warriors and the dark coalition army were piled up everywhere, which also forced their range to be gradually reduced. In the end, only a few dozen tribal warriors and Jin Ming were left to huddle in a very small space, watching the various dark forces that had surrounded them keep approaching. The black and purple patch, there are purple skin monsters, there are beasts that are half human and half beast, and there are people like ordinary human beings holding weapons.

"We ...... There is no turning back. A dejected voice sounded beside Jin Ming.

Jin Ming rode on the wolf bear and gasped, feeling his heartbeat in line with his breathing. Just as he was about to comfort the owner of this voice with words that he did not believe, suddenly he felt that this voice was so familiar, not like the rough voice of a tribal warrior, but ...... He looked sideways, and the person behind him surprised him.

"You?" Jin Ming looked at Verri, who was covered in blood, with an expression of disbelief.

"My lord, this is the time for me to perform my duties as a soldier. Verry shook the sword in his hand, and the unfrozen blood flowed down the grooves of the blade to the hilt.

Jin Ming nodded and didn't say anything, but his mood was very heavy, and it was like climbing to the sky if he wanted to break out of the encirclement in such a situation. And Viri is standing here at the moment, it must be because of what he just said and questioned. He turned forward and tightened his grip on his sword.

"Warriors!" Jin Ming raised the long sword in his hand and shouted loudly, "We are here to represent justice and faith, and the Dragon Guardian will bless us." No matter how many demons there are in front of us, we will kill as many as we want!, so that we can be worthy of those relatives who have been brutally murdered by them!" His voice was bright and murderous, but it was actually fierce, but it was enough for the tribal warriors. Suddenly, even the warriors of the tribe who did not have the strength clenched their weapons again, glaring at the enemies in circles and roaring angrily.

The Dark Coalition did not take the initiative to attack, but slowly approached, as if waiting for them to take the initiative to die.

Jin Ming gritted his teeth, he knew that he had to fight with them now, and if they were allowed to shrink the space again, it would be even more unfavorable for them to counterattack.

He slashed his sword into the air, and was about to launch a final breakout, but heard the sounds of fighting and wails coming from the rear of the Dark Alliance. He didn't know what was happening, but he had a hunch that something must have turned around. There was a strange sound in the sky, and the white light flashed in front of him, and a white shadow wrapped in a biting cold current hit overhead, and then the approaching dark coalition forces in front of him began to flee one by one in confusion. Jin Ming was a little stunned, he had fought with that group of minions many times, knowing full well that this group of demons who regarded bloodshed and injury as pleasure were not afraid of any attack, but now they were so desperate to flee. He looked up at the source of the white shadow, only to see the empty sky. Looking back at the black and purple of the desert, he knew that it was the moment, so he swung his sword again.

"Warriors!

He took the lead in chasing the Dark Coalition forces fleeing in all directions, slashing down several weak rebels one after another, and came to the place where the white shadow had struck. As soon as he got closer, he felt a cold like a pinprick in the needle, and even the wolf and bear roared uneasily. He flipped off the wolf bear and walked slowly. There were a few dead dark minions on the flat ground, and the way they had died made him feel even colder—sunken eyes, dry lips, skinned bones, as if they had been squeezed dry by something...... There were puddles of white wriggling liquid on the ground around them, which should be the white shadow that made them so.

"What is this...... What the hell?" Jin Ming said silently in his heart. Although in a way, these "ghosts" helped them break through this group of dark minions, but ......

Before he had time to think about it, another shadow passed by. This time, however, it wasn't white, nor was it biting cold, but green, blowing like the wind.

"Jin Ming?"

A crisp voice sounded behind him. He could hear it, the voice was cold, but it had a soft feeling. A figure flashed in his mind, an untouchable figure, could it be her? He didn't dare to imagine, only turned slowly and tremblingly.

"It's really her. When he saw the man behind him, he answered his question.
