61. Mending the knife is important
Lake listened to Su Yu's words and felt that there was some truth, so after hesitating for a moment, he also put the pickaxe down.
Su Yu picked up the drops on the ground, then took out a barbecue from his backpack and handed it to him...... Although it was not long before breakfast was finished, it was both fighting and mining, and the speed of hunger was not slow.
Anyway, Su Yu brought a lot of food, and he brought ten servings of berry roast alone, which was enough for them to eat from day to night.
Lake was eating, and Su Yu also took one out to eat.
Before they had finished their meal, they heard what seemed to be movement on the right side of the mine.
Su Yu's hand was eating, and Lake's reaction was not slow, he ate what he had in his hand in three or two bites, and then took the fist gloves he had just taken off and walked directly in the direction of the sound source.
"Wait, bring this." Su Yu took out some of the basic healing potions in her backpack and handed them to Lake.
……
"Lyle? Is that you?! Lake made a tentative sound, and then his face changed when he smelled a hint of blood.
He didn't care about anything else at this time, and ran directly in the direction of a dark shadow faintly in front of him.
When he reached his destination, he saw Lyle lying on the ground as if he was paralyzed, and not only that, but his whole body was covered in blood, which was exactly the same as last night's Doya.
If it weren't for the heaving chest proving that the man was still alive, Lake really didn't know what he would be doing now.
Although he knew that Lyle was still alive, Lake hurried to his side and tried to help him up, but before he could touch Lyle, he saw that the person who had been with his eyes closed suddenly opened his eyes.
Seeing that it was Ryker, his sharp eyes gradually changed, and Lyle breathed a sigh of relief.
He could see that Lyle was trying to help himself back, so he took a few deep breaths and then said something intermittently: "I'm fine...... Other...... It's not ...... yet Die...... Go...... Go ......."
Lake did want to help Lyle back, but because of Lyle's words, he had to give up his idea first.
Although Lyle's words were intermittent and his voice was too small to hear very clearly, perhaps because of tacit understanding, Ryker still understood what Lyle was trying to say.
So he fed Lyle a bottle of the basic healing potion that Su Yu had given him earlier, and then walked cautiously in the direction he had indicated.
If he's not mistaken, Lyle is supposed to fight some kind of creature (beast/monster) and end up losing both.
Lyle didn't fall here because of how badly injured, on the contrary, there were no wounds on his body, and the blood stains on his body were most likely from the creature fighting it, not his.
He fell here more because of physical exhaustion.
And most of the creatures that fought against Lyle were also in this state, so Lyle let it take this opportunity to deal with the creature first...... As the saying goes, 'take advantage of its illness to kill it', and it is important to make up for the knife.
Otherwise, it would be terrible if the creature recovered.
Lake walked around the overgrown area, then reached out to remove the leaves that stood in his way, and then came into view a black-striped tiger that was more than three feet long.
Ryker could be said to be startled when he saw the black-striped tiger, but it wasn't because he was afraid of the tiger, but because he didn't expect that Lyle was actually fighting a tiger just now!
When did his brother become so powerful?
Could it be that Wu Song is possessed?!
…… No, who is Wu Song...... Forget it, it doesn't matter.
The tiger was like Lyle, even worse than Lyle, its body was full of bloody holes, and Ryker even seemed to see a few unfamiliar wounds...... But Lake didn't have the time to observe these at this time.
As if hearing the movement of Ryker, the black-striped tiger that was lying half-dead on the ground suddenly opened its eyes.
But unlike Lyle, after this black-striped tiger saw Ryker, there was only ferocity in his eyes.
But no matter how much it pretends to be a murderer, it is useless, because at this time it is completely unable to move, and it can be said that it is a paper tiger that can be broken at the first poke.
Lake didn't give it time to react or rest, just put on his gloves, strode forward, and then charged a blow.
As if worried that this punch wouldn't be able to wreak havoc on the tiger, Lake riveted several more times, until he felt his hands tingle a little from the force, and he stopped.
If Su Yu was here at this time, then she would be able to see that the black-veined tiger was already dead, because the value representing the amount of blood had been completely reduced to zero.
But even if she wasn't here, Lake could tell that the tiger was supposed to be dead and couldn't die again.
After making sure that he had completely eliminated the tiger and that there would be no 'corpse' situation, Lake hurriedly returned to Lyle's side.
"Where's the lord?" At this time, Lyle may have rested enough, or because the bottle of basic healing potion just now worked, in short, although he can't do any physical work now, he still has no problem walking on his own.
He slowly got up from the ground, and was thinking about going to see how Lake solved the tiger, but he happened to see Lake coming back, so he asked Su Yu about the situation.
"The lord is still over there, she must be fine, the potion you just drank was still given to me by the lord...... I just went to the left to explore and found a mine......" Ryker explained the situation on his side a little, and then began to ask Lyle what was going on.
"How did you come across the Black Tiger? And to be able to make it look like this? Why haven't I seen you so powerful before? Did you let me before? ”
Lyle: "...... Then you think too highly of me. ”
Faced with Lake's series of questions, Lyle didn't know where to start explaining for a while, because things were a bit complicated...... In short, he definitely doesn't have the ability to lose both with a tiger, especially since this is the 'Black Striped Tiger' who is known for its violentness among tigers.
To be able to escape today, and even to kill the black-striped tiger, this can only be said to be lucky.
"I'll talk about something when I go back, so as not to worry my lord."
Ryker was still curious about what was going on, but he knew he couldn't afford to delay any longer.
This is not only because Su Yu will be worried, but most importantly, in the forest, such a strong smell of blood, if you don't leave as soon as possible, it will inevitably attract a lot of other creatures.
