Tully's Death: The Abyss

Royce's punch was not light, but Tully didn't seem to feel the pain at all, or rather, this punch just helped him relieve a little itch, but it also made him sober up a lot, Tully slapped himself several times, his face was covered with blood, and with the pain, he barely regained his senses, "Let's go, I can't help it if I don't go." ”

Royce still didn't move when he heard this, he looked around in a daze, the whimpering night wind, like crying and laughing, the dark trees like arms, hideous and terrifying, but these were not problems, the most important thing was that he forgot where he came from?

The Rangers would put markings on the path they had to follow, or strips of cloth, or engravings, or small dirt pits, but Royce saw nothing, and he went madly and looked at every tree around him, trying to find traces.

No......

No......

Still not......

"I ...... I don't remember where the road is, do you remember?"

Royce muttered, "Why is it that he had followed the path he had come from, but why was it suddenly wrong, could it be that he had taken a fork in the road, and he didn't notice it because it was too dark?"

Which way is the way back?

He had forgotten about it too......

I don't know when, even the night wind and the sound of mosquitoes have disappeared, only the smell of sweat mixed with the smell of blood continues to spread in the air, although it is used to the night, but the Black Forest is really too dark, there is no light at all, when there are many people, I don't feel anything, but now Royce only feels a chill, and even the itching on his body has weakened a lot.

"You're kidding, haha, brother, it's not funny at all, let's go, if the deacon really suffers from any difficulties, we can't afford to take responsibility. ”

Tully's smile was a little stiff, and he wanted Royce to say, 'Haha, just kidding, let's go.'" But no, Royce shook his head with a wry smile, and said nothing, Tully's mood was as if he had fallen from a cliff into the abyss, and he couldn't help but murmur, "Are you kidding...... Brother...... You're kidding...... You've been running ahead all along!Now you're telling me I can't find my way!?"

Tully almost collapsed, he no longer suppressed his voice, rushed to Royce and roared loudly, and the more he talked, the more angry he became, and remembered that Royce punched him just now, and immediately punched Royce in the stomach, Royce was already in a terrible mood, and he couldn't bear it at all, and the two of them suddenly scuffled together.

"It's not that you have to stop! If I run down in one breath, I won't be able to find the way? Maybe it's almost there! It's because you're a pig, you're going to die and live on such a little road! I can't stand such an itch! And I still have the face to say Lao Tzu!?"

Royce saw the opportunity, grabbed Tully's shoulder with his right hand, twisted his waist, and pressed him under him violently, his knees pressed tightly against Tully's neck, this fat face was so disgusting, Royce was angry, and broke the bridge of Tully's nose with his fist, punch after punch, constantly venting the anger in his heart, blood splattered, and Tully's head was knocked into the dirt by him.

"Woo...... Woo......"

Tully couldn't say a word when he was beaten, his physical strength had long been exhausted, and he couldn't recover at all with such a little effort, plus the blood loss caused by scratching before, he didn't have any strength at all now, just with a sense of anger, it was too late to beg for mercy at this time, Royce had fallen into madness.

The faint breath was like a candle in the wind, gradually extinguished, and when Royce came back to his senses, Tully's face had been smashed by him, and his right hand was stained with warm liquid, and he couldn't tell whether it was brain pulp or blood, although Royce couldn't see clearly, but he knew in his heart that Tully was dead, he was beaten to death by himself, he staggered to his feet, took three or four steps back, sat down against a tree, and gasped for breath.

"Not me...... It's not my fault...... It's ...... him who is looking for his own death."

Royce was completely panicked, he didn't mean to kill Tully, he just couldn't control it, but now it's too late to say anything, the border guards are all relatives and brothers, and the crime of killing each other is death, and there is no going back...... I can't go back at all......

Even if no one sees it, even if he can make up a lie, Genos and Yuren are the ones who know that he and Tali went back together, and even if they find their way back to Winter City now, as long as those two people come back, they can't hide it.

Ambushed by monsters?Then why is it only Tully who died, and you are alive and well?

This kind of lie is not enough to deceive children, the two newcomers were ambushed by monsters, there is no possibility of survival, Tully's death can only be killed by him Royce, unless Genos and Yoren can never go back, Brandon and the three rangers are all dead, so that no one will doubt him anymore, yes, as long as they are all dead, there will be no problems, this method is the most perfect, but the only thing he can do is to pray for Brandon that they will be ambushed and die at the hands of monsters, but he has another way, that is, to go back to Brandon and them。

Royce couldn't help but follow this line of thought......

The possibility of getting out of the Black Forest is almost zero when he is completely lost, but it is not impossible to go back to Brandon, he forgot one thing in a hurry just now, he and Tully will inevitably leave many traces along the way, as long as they follow these traces, they will definitely be able to go back, at that time, as long as they deny everything or find a reasonable explanation, and put all the blame on Genos, Brandon will not be able to distinguish the real from the fake, if Genos insists on doubting himself, it will be a big deal......

Royce was so engrossed that he couldn't even feel the pain on his body, he couldn't feel ...... The disgusting smell behind him......

......

Brandon held his breath and stared, slowly using his sword to remove the weeds and branches in front of him, every step he took, his attention would be more concentrated, those monsters in the Black Forest are best at sneak attacks, although there are Colin behind them, but they are still not careless, there are already too many rangers buried in the Black Forest, they have never underestimated this place, but the danger always appears so suddenly, even if the experienced and skilled rangers are, they dare not say that they can deal with all emergencies.

Brandon got closer and closer to the source of the sound, it was a huge black cloud tree, the three of them didn't necessarily hug each other, and this sound came from behind the tree, but when he was less than ten meters close to the tree, the sound suddenly disappeared, startling Brandon to stop and slowly retreat.

"Master Brandon, let's go. ”

Genos has been following behind Brandon, and Yuren has kept a distance of five meters from him, Colin did not stop him, he saw Genos's behavior before, and has to admit that this series of decisions is indeed the best choice at the moment, he is happy to see that the newcomer has his own judgment, can stay calm in unexpected situations, and make the most reasonable choice, the Rangers need such a person.

Brandon didn't say anything, he glanced at Genos coldly, he found that he couldn't guess that this person who likes to be smart about himself, shouldn't he stay away from such a dangerous thing?

"Anyone in Winter City can die, but you can't. ”

Genos's words are half-true, the real part is that he really doesn't want to see Brandon have any accidents, and the false part is that he knows very well in his heart that Brandon will never let him be killed by monsters, as for the other point, he didn't tell anyone, Tully and Royce would naturally be good if they could go back smoothly, but he knew that this possibility was almost zero, these two were just bait, and they were his means to help Brandon get out of danger.

Think about it carefully, how can two inexperienced newcomers, who are unfamiliar with the road, and are extremely nervous, depressed and frightened, find their way back without making any noise and leaving no traces, and return to Winter City unharmed?

This is the monsters' favorite prey, relatively speaking, experienced and skilled rangers like Brandon and Colin must not be willing to bite the monsters of the Black Forest, and for monsters who follow their instincts, Tully and Royce are simply two pieces of meat to the mouth, and there is no reason to let them go.

Brandon thought for a moment, nodded and agreed to Genos's proposal, firstly, it is of course good that someone is willing to rush ahead, and secondly, he also wants to see what Genos intends to do?

Yu Lun cursed in his heart, he didn't want to go over, but at this point, he really couldn't open his mouth, and his self-esteem made him have to follow behind Genos, at this time, he could only pray silently, hoping that the tree was just a rabbit, even if it was a wolf, but it was not a terrifying monster.

According to Genos's assumption, if there really was any monster, it should have been led away by the movement of Tali and Royce just now, so what would be the thing that made the sound now?

While approaching the Black Cloud Tree, Genos kept making assumptions in his heart, he was not not afraid, but he was very confident in his judgment, and Brandon had been following him, even if something really happened, he would not be killed instantly, as long as he could win Brandon's trust, he would be able to gain a foothold in Winter City, become a real border defender, a ranger, and be truly needed......

However, the scene behind the tree was unexpected by everyone, Genos and Brandon both frowned, Yuren breathed a sigh of relief, Colin and the others saw that they had not moved for a long time, and they stepped forward one after another, and when they reached behind the tree, their faces immediately became gloomy.
