Chapter 65: The Retreating Beast

"Thank you."

"It's me who should say thank you, if you hadn't led away the Void Flying Worms earlier, I'm afraid we'd all be dead."

It's the truth.

At that time, if it weren't for Ash, whose strength had reached the second order, and taking the initiative to attract the Void Flying Worms, everyone present would have been consumed to death.

Although it is clear that the reason why Ash is like this is because the people of the Avarosa tribe have little to do with Zhao Wen and them.

But things can't be thought like this, so they feel that it doesn't matter, Zhao Wen and they did receive benefits, so they were rescued, so there is a grace to save their lives.

This is also the reason why Zhao Wen did not hesitate to save the unconscious Ash.

Zhao Wen said: "Your injuries are too serious, and the effect of the civilian hemostatic spray is very limited......

Ash tightened the corners of her suit, she knew the state of her body best, so weak that she couldn't even maintain her cold magic, and she would have to recuperate for at least a few days to recover.

The scar caused by the sneak attack of the Retreat Beast almost injured the internal organs, and if you can't find the frost sacrifice treatment, you can't move vigorously for a short time.

Now she is not as good as the women and children in the tribe who need protection.

After all, when a woman or child is in danger, she can still hold a spear to resist, and if she picks up a weapon, she will bleed to death after the wound is torn.

Faintly, there was a voice overhead.

Ash's face changed slightly, and she struggled to stand up, but was gently pressed on her shoulders by a pair of hands, signaling her not to move.

"I'll go see ......"

A moment later, Zhao Wen returned, and the place where they were now staying was a gap in the mountain wall, slightly narrow, but relatively hidden.

Ash smelled a faint fishy smell on his body, which was familiar, he had just smelled it not long ago, it was the blood of the Void Flying Worm.

"Has it been discovered?"

"Nope."

Zhao Wen shook his head and said, "Except for a few special bodies, the vast majority of void creatures are not intelligent, they only follow their instincts, and they will not deliberately hunt down a certain prey. ”

Ash took a deep breath and said, "Even so, it's still not safe here, so it's better to leave as soon as possible." ”

Before he finished speaking, Zhao Wen nodded and responded: "Judging from the strength of the void creatures, the seal of the Howling Abyss has not been unlocked, and someone will find a way to solve the ...... of these void creatures."

If the Void Seal is lifted, the Void Watcher who is frozen at the bottom will be able to break through the ice immediately.

A top-level void creature that can rewrite the terrain of Freljord in an instant.

Now this battle is not big, it is just some low-level void creatures raging, which makes Zhao Wen breathe a sigh of relief.

By the time the wild forces have come out of the Howling Abyss, they should be able to deal with these Void Bugs, and although they can't be eliminated quickly, most of the swarms won't survive.

At that time, the remaining scattered Void Bugs would not be a threat.

Although it is not clear why, the wild troops are still nowhere to be seen, but even if they don't do it, Freljord still has the ability to do it.

Three ancient demigods who created the frozen land of Fredjord.

According to the current timeline, two of them may not appear for various reasons, but it is absolutely impossible for the demigod who controls the power of thunder, Volibel, to watch the void creatures wreak havoc on the earth and slaughter the bear-people he created.

Now, as long as you get up to the top combat power, there is still room for things to turn around.

Ash's eyes dimmed, because of the fault line in Freljord's history, she didn't know these things, and whispered: "I once followed in the footsteps of the gods, but he seems to be still in nirvana......"

Zhao Wen knew that she was talking about Anivia, a god who spent most of his time in Nirvana and sleeping, but he was indeed the kindest of the three gods to humans.

He explained: "I'm talking about bears. ”

Ash didn't react, her eyes grew slightly after a moment, she had never heard anyone call a god like that.

Although the image of this irascible god has not been good in history, most of the tribesmen are so reverent that they don't even call him by name, let alone by his nickname.

However, it is indeed a giant bear......

She felt the urge to laugh, and quickly suppressed it, which was too disrespectful to the gods.

"Dog...... Will the gods really make a move? ”

Hearing his words, Ash was in good spirits, but he felt that this god should not help humans.

"Yes."

The bear will make a move, Zhao Wen has no doubts.

But he didn't tell Ash, I'm afraid that the misogynistic god will take action to deal with the raging Void Bugs, but it will definitely crush a few unpleasant human tribes at will.

He wanted to kill the betrayers more than the Void.

That's when it happened.

The mountain suddenly shook, rubble fell, and the rock wall suddenly broke, and a huge reclusive beast emerged.

The Retreat was huge, two laps larger than the one that had attacked Ash before.

"Don't make a noise......"

Zhao Wen's body was close to the rock wall, holding his breath, revealing half of his face and observing cautiously.

Rumble!

Before he could see the movement of the recluse, the rock wall around him exploded.

Zhao Wen reacted quickly, hugged Ash, who was half-lying on the ground, withstood the impact of the fine gravel with his back, and jumped out from the gap in the rock wall.

A second reclusive beast emerges from the rock wall.

Immediately after that, the third, the fourth...... I can't count......

Countless reclusive beasts emerged from the rock walls and the earth, and the mountains trembled, and the ground was full of potholes, like edifices that could collapse at any moment.

Zhao Wen put away the short knife he had just pulled out, not to give up resistance, but to flee at full speed.

"Is this a stabbing of the Escape Beast's Den?"

The hard carapace of the Retreat Beast was difficult for Ash to shoot, let alone himself who had just been promoted to the first rank and didn't even have a decent card.

Bang!

A reclusive beast leaped up, its two claws crossed, and it was about to tear apart its prey.

"Hee ......"

The red-clothed ghost suddenly appeared, and there was a trace of grief in the originally empty eyes.

The chains wrapped around the leaping Retreat Beast, pulling to change its landing position, and Zhao Wen hugged Ash and slid out of its belly.

Another retreating beast pounced, and Zhao Wen could only dodge backwards.

The combat power of the Retreat Beast was far from being comparable to that of the Void Flying Insects and the Pollutants, and one was already very tricky for Zhao Wen, let alone appearing in groups.

"...... to Death"

Zhao Wen was anxious, this closed mountain has only two exits.

One is the crack where at least dozens of Retreat Beasts block the way, and the other is the mountain pass overhead.

The former is impossible, and it is a fool's dream to let Zhao Wen hold Ash and break out from under the claws of the reclusive beasts.

Latter......

Zhao Wen glanced at the moist and smooth rock wall, unless he could fly, it would be more outrageous than picking up the swaggering beast and walking out.

"Damn, how did they all end up here?"

Zhao Wen scolded secretly in his heart, his eyes scanned around, looking for a chance to live.

After the initial panic, Ash's eyes gradually calmed down, and he said, "Use me as bait so you can leave." ”

No one wants to die.

Especially with the burden on his shoulders, he carries the longings of countless tribesmen.

But in the current situation, there is no other way but to sacrifice yourself.

The beast will discard the injured and weak in the group, so when hunting, you only need to shoot the prey, and slowly the injured prey will leave the herd, greatly reducing the difficulty of hunting.

This is the truth that my mother gave me.

In the same way, when the tribe faces natural disasters, in order to save food, they will deliberately send old women with limited mobility to go out to pick grass fruits, so that they will die in the mouths of wild beasts.

Tribesmen who were injured during the hunt would be driven out of the stockade to fend for themselves if they were too badly injured.

Ash kept thinking to himself, what is the difference between them and the beasts in this way?

They are beasts too.

But they weren't supposed to be beasts......

That's why Ash will accept the people who have been abandoned by the various tribes, will run to the tribes of the alliance, and will save those in need.

When her concept of peaceful reunification spread in this land of survival of the fittest, she was regarded as a ridiculous existence by everyone.

Running into walls everywhere, she still can't shake her faith.

But when she was facing death now, she had an inexplicable sense of loss.

If she dies here, Alvarossa will be torn apart, and all her efforts will be in vain.

Is it wrong?

At that time, if she had chosen to leave, with her second-order strength, she would not have exhausted her strength to be attacked by the Retreat Beast and be seriously injured and dying.

In that case, although Alvarossa will lose his people, he will not be destroyed.

The herd loses the wounded beasts so that the herd can survive better, and the prey hunted is enjoyed by the head wolf, because the head wolf can lead them to live better...... Big fish eat little fish......

In Ash's determined eyes, he was confused for the first time when facing life and death.

"No ......"

Zhao Wen's whole body was drenched in blood, and his thick winter clothes were as fragile as paper under the claws of the Retreat Beast.

But he still hugged Ash tightly, his face was anxious, but his eyes were still bright, and he didn't give up hope, and he said that Ash couldn't understand words.

"I've had nine years of compulsory education, and I really can't do this kind of thing to lose my benefactor's ears."

Ash's empty eyes were slightly condensed, and he moved, looking at the face that was about his age, this close face, and moved his lips, not knowing what to say.

Are you not left behind?

Ash's heart was complicated, the tip of her nose was sour, and when she began to be confused, hearing such words was like a thunderbolt that slashed straight into her ears.

Before she could think about it, she heard another whisper in her ear: "It's useless to throw you away, just your two taels of meat, you will be gnawed up before I can run two steps......"
