Chapter Twenty-Six: The Arrival of the Retreating Beast

After the two men stopped talking, Galen turned to look at the sky, and Ezreal toyed with his own armguards. The moon in the sky tonight is particularly round, Galen looked at the moon blankly, as if he could see Demacia in the moon again, perhaps because he hadn't been home for too long, Galen missed his hometown very much. Galen thinks about his current situation, his current ability should be much stronger than when he first left Demacia, and he doesn't know if he can take responsibility and let his sister not go to war.

Galen was overwhelmed by a flood of thoughts, and Galen made up his mind that after passing through this desert, he would return to his hometown no matter what, and never go to the training again. Galen was still looking at the moon, and in the moon, Galen saw Lux's smile, his mother's concern for him, and his father's serious expression, everything was so kind, Galen wanted to reach out and grab it, but he only caught the air, and all the pictures were gone. Galen fell silent and sat dumbfounded.

Ezreal, who was next to him, was also bored, kept moving, and then said impatiently: "Those Retreat Beasts have not come for so long, will those Retreat Beasts give up chasing us?" I'm really sleepy right now, or let's go down and sleep, those reclusive beasts won't come. ”

When Galen heard Ezreal's bad idea, he asked rhetorically: "What if the Retreat Beast comes after you fall asleep, anyway, I won't go down, you can go down if you want, I will help you see those Retreat Beasts, they will call you." Ezreal thought about the consequences and said, "Forget it, if the Escape Beast comes too fast, I won't be able to escape, if I fall asleep, you can't wake me up, I'm going to die, the danger is too great, I can't sleep if I go down." ”

Galen said, "Then there is nothing to say. Ezreal patted the cactus platform and said, "This cactus is really uncomfortable to sit on, and it collapsed all at once." Galen heard what Ezreal said, and seemed to be inspired, and then said in a loud voice, "Why don't we dig down into this cactus and dig a bowl-shaped hole, so that we can sleep against the inner wall of the cactus without fear of falling." ”

Ezreal was glad to know that Galen's idea worked, but neither of them immediately thought of the easy way because of the short time they could think of. Galen and Ezery began to hollow out the flesh inside the round, columnar cactus, and it wasn't long before they were done, digging a waist-deep pit, and it was already midnight. Galen looked at the desert below the cactus, there was no trace of the recluse, and Galen didn't think about it so much, so he said to Ezreal: "Go to sleep, get up early tomorrow and hurry." Ezreal did not answer, but suddenly made a snoring sound, and was already asleep, and Galen was speechless, and had only rested.

The night was uneventful, and it wasn't until the sun shone on Galen's face that Galen felt something, and slowly woke up, where Ezreal was still babbling and talking vaguely from his dreams. Galen looked at the rising sun, and it was too late to get up until now, and in two hours, the sun was too strong to hurry, so he immediately woke up Ezreal and said, "Get out of this place, this place is too dangerous, get up quickly." When Ezreal woke up, he didn't complain, but packed up his things and climbed down the cactus with Galen.

After going down, Ezreal yawned incessantly, followed behind Galen, and did not speak, but followed silently. When Ezreal sensed the sun, he took out the parasol, stretched it out, and silently followed behind Galen. Galen walked ahead, although the sun was very strong now, but it could still be bearable, and in more than an hour, he would have to rest, Galen calculated how long he could hold on, and after thinking about it, he didn't want to concentrate on hurrying.

Half an hour later, Ezreal suddenly burst into a sentence: "Why did I panic just now, is something bad about to happen?" Galen heard Ezreal's words, and wanted to turn his head to talk about Ezreal, saying that when he made a fuss again, he saw that the sand not far away was constantly sinking, forming two sand bands. Galen hurriedly said to Ezreal, "Look behind, there are two things hiding under the sand chasing us. ”

Ezreal couldn't believe it and said, "It can't be the Retreat Beasts, I remember they came out at night, absolutely impossible." Galen said suspiciously: "We met monsters like the Retreat Beast at night, this does not mean that they will not come out during the day, don't be preconceived, let's take a look at the situation." Ezreal felt that what Galen said was very reasonable, so he looked at the upcoming two-headed escape creatures and said, "Galen, it's only two-headed, it seems that those two-headed creatures are not too big, you should be able to fight, we can't keep running away." ”

Galen thought for a moment, then said, "I'll try and see if I can kill them, you go away a little, I'm going to deal with them." Ezreal was so happy that Galen agreed and walked away. Galen didn't move, but the two reclusive creatures turned around and headed in Ezreal's direction. Galen watched as the two creatures chased after Ezreal, and said loudly to Ezreal, "The two monsters are running in your direction, Ezreal, run." ”

Ezreal saw two belts of sand stretching in his direction, and there were ten million grass and mud horses galloping in his heart, thinking why he was chasing Lao Tzu, did Lao Tzu provoke you. Then he thought about it quickly, and finally thought of a good attention, and ran back directly in the direction where Galen was, and said loudly: "Galen help me quickly, help me kill these monsters." Galen looked at Ezreal who was running over, and directly pulled out the storm sword stuck in his back, holding it with one hand, motionless.

Ezreal got closer, Galen's sword tightened, and Galen crouched on his knees, waiting for Ezreal's arrival. When Ezreal saw Galen like this, he ran faster, and soon reached a position 34 meters away from Galen. Galen screamed at this time, and the whole person jumped, and in the air, Galen's posture of holding the sword changed to holding it with both hands, and flew directly over Ezreal's head, and then holding the sword with both hands, and thrust it down vigorously, just hitting one of the reclusive creatures.

The reclusive creature struggled desperately, kicking up a lot of dust, Galen held the storm sword tightly, fixed it under the sand, and gradually the movement of the reclusive creature became less and less, and in the end there was no movement, Galen thrust the storm sword down vigorously to ensure that the monster below was really dead. When Galen solved this monster, looking at Ezreal, Ezreal kept running, saying as he ran: "I can't run, hurry up and save me, my mecha has no energy, I can't summon it, help." ”

Galen is very speechless about this superlative, he has no strength to run, and he can still speak loudly and fluently, now is not the time to admire him, let's help him get rid of the reclusive creature chasing him. Galen shouted to Ezreal to run to him, and when Ezreal heard it, he ran to Galen for his life. Galen held the sword in one hand, and the Storm Greatsword dragged on the ground, drawing a shallow trace, and looked intently at the monster behind Ezreal, and soon Ezreal passed by Galen's side.

Galen suddenly exerted force, and the Tempest Greatsword plunged into the sand, and Galen also sped up and ran towards the monster. In an instant, the half-buried Storm Sword hit the monster, the monster was in pain, and with a sharp scream, it quickly fled backwards, where was Galen willing to let go of such an opportunity, and directly leaped a few steps, grabbing the Storm Sword and quickly inserting it into the place where the monster was. The monster's cry became more shrill, and Galen felt that his ears were a little unbearable, and his head hurt a little, so he calmed down, and the creature took advantage of Galen's pause and fled as quickly as possible.

When Galen came to his senses, the monster had already run away, and Galen couldn't catch up, so he gave up and pulled out the storm sword stuck in the dirt, and there was something blue on the blade, which should be the blood of the monster. Galen used the Tempest Greatsword to remove the sand from the place where the sword had been inserted, and found a piece of the monster's tail, flat but very hard, and very sharp, like the fins of some fish, very strange. Galen picked up the tail and looked around to find Ezreal sitting not far away, staring blankly at him, gasping for breath.

Galen walked in the direction of Ezreal and said, "There is no danger, one of the two monsters was killed by me, and the other was killed by me, and it is a pity that I did not kill it." Look at what you cut from the monster and see if you can recognize what it is. Galen gave Ezreal the fin of what looked like a fish's fin, and Ezreal picked it up with his left armguard, looked at it carefully, and said, "I don't know what kind of animal it is, I've never seen such a strange creature, you see, the blood of this thing is blue, what kind of creature it is." ”

Thinking that he had killed one more, and that one was still buried in the sand, Galen said, "Come with me, I killed one, let's quickly dig that one out, maybe see the whole monster, you can recognize it." Ezreal said, "Okay, you lead the way." Galen and Ezreal walked together to the place where the monster's corpse was buried.

After some hard work, the two of them finally dug up the monster. After digging it out, Galen saw that he had just plunged a sword directly into its brain, and the blue blood flowed a lot, and it died directly. I have to say that Galen's luck was particularly good, and he was killed in one blow through the sand. Galen and Ezreal looked at the body of this giant retreating beast, about a meter long, its limbs were particularly strong, and it had particularly sharp claws, its head was even more terrifying, it really only had a row of snow-white sharp teeth, and two things like tentacles, there was nothing else, no nose, eyes, ears or anything.

Ezreal saw such a monster and said, "It was this monster that attacked us the night before yesterday, and it is like this, I have never seen such a creature in my long time on the continent." Galen said with some concern, "It's not the time to wonder where this reclusement came from, or to say that there are many more of these creatures in this desert, at least as many as we encountered the night before." "You're saying that the reclusive beasts we met the night before yesterday will come back to attack us, and the ones we haven't killed just now will only come back to report back, so our situation is not very dangerous." ”

Galen said: "It should be like this, we still need to face more Retreat Beasts, get out of here quickly, it is estimated that a group of Retreat Beasts will come here soon." With that, Galen quickly tidied up, and with Ezreal, he sped up and left the place.
