Gorshu wakes up before the blood moon.
He looked at the dark and icy sky outside the cave, and blinked a little blankly, but he couldn't remember how he fell asleep for a while.
Ge Xiu got up, his movements pulled the skin on his neck, and he couldn't help gasping for breath.
The skin from the jaw to the collarbone was hot, as if it had been polished with rough sandpaper, and the slightest movement caused a vague burning pain.
He touched his neck inexplicably - there was no wound.
Did it happen while sleeping
Before Ge Xiu could figure it out, a whistling cold wind slammed into the unsealed cave, blowing the half-length black hair back from his forehead and ear, revealing a well-defined jawline.
He put down his hands and turned his head to look in the direction the wind was blowing.
As if being pulled by some invisible gravitational force, Ge Xiu stood up and walked slowly to the entrance of the cave.
He looked down and looked down.
Outside the cave, a soundless darkness enveloped him, the stubborn rock standing under his feet was like an island in the endless dark night, and beyond that, there was nothing but a dark ocean.
… the dark elements seem to be more alive than ever.
The thick, viscous wave of the elemental waves undulates silently, as if something disturbingly stirred beneath its dark, deep surface.
Ge Xiu stood at the entrance of the cave, the violent mountain wind roaring in his ears.
He had a strange delusion, as if in his own body, as if there was something corresponding to it. A secret joy was dissolved into his blood, pumping to his limbs with his heartbeat, bringing an endless sense of power.
Gossi looked up at the sky.
The blood moon protruded from the top of the cliff, reflecting a corner of the sky into a hazy dark red. It used to be broken like a hook, and I don't know when it started, but it gradually became full, like an eye that gradually opened, casting a cold gaze on the ground.
He looked at that eye for a long time.
Finally, Ge Xiu withdrew his gaze. In the next second, an elemental wall rose to the ground in an instant, and the dark and thick elemental film quickly covered the entrance of the hole, blocking the ominous blood-colored moonlight.
—The thickness that once required full mobilization to create, now only requires a thought.
The increase in strength is too fast.
Ge Xiu looked down at his palm inexplicably.
Beneath the palm of the hand is the slender carpal bone, cyan slender blood vessels running under the pale skin, covered with faint red bloodstains.
He wiped. Not wiped off.
Ge Xiu increased his strength. That piece of skin has been rubbed into a light red, but the bloodstain has not disappeared at all, but it has become more vivid.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, raised his palms to eye level, and looked at his wrists carefully.
The red pattern is looming, spreading like a mural, spreading along the wrist and into the sleeve tube.
Ge Xiu's thoughts moved, and the clothes made of dark elements peeled off like snowflakes, revealing his wrists, forearms, joints, and shoulders in turn. The flame-like crimson lines appeared on the pale and thin limbs like a brand, and the fuzzy totem lines were half hidden under the texture and half surfaced on the skin.
He touched. It doesn't hurt.
After all, it is not yet time for the Blood Moon to hang high in the sky.
Ge Xiu frowned, staring thoughtfully at his wrist.
The pain he suffered every night was related to the moon, so the lines that gradually emerged from him must also be related to the changing blood moon.
So... what happens at the full moon
It's unlikely to be a good thing either way.
Ge Xiu lowered his eyes thoughtfully, and lowered his raised arms, the dark elements gathered into thin sleeves again, and the snow-white limbs were engulfed by the darkness.
The need to get out of the abyss became more and more urgent.
He turned his head and looked into the depths of the cave, where the small and even breathing of the little wolf came from there. The wings were closed on the back, and they undulated slightly with the rhythm of the breathing. It was obviously not old enough to take him out of the abyss. to the point of .
It seemed that this time it was up to him.
As if aware of the sight that was thrown at him, in the darkness, a pair of bright golden beast pupils opened and looked straight at Ge Xiu who was standing at the entrance of the cave.
Ge Xiu was stunned for a moment, then raised the corners of his lips: "Are you awake?"
He walked quickly towards the little wolf lying deep in the cave, sat cross-legged in front of the simple fur nest made of animal skins, and then naturally reached out.
Before he could touch the little wolf's fur with his fingertips, Ge Xiu seemed to suddenly remember something. After hesitating for a second, he stopped his gesture of reaching out and showed the little wolf his empty palm instead. said:
"Just check your wounds."
The little wolf didn't move, and the golden beast pupils were still staring at him, but they didn't take on the attacking posture as before.
After waiting for a few seconds, Ge Xiu felt relieved and continued to reach forward.
The pulp of his fingers touched the smooth, thick fur on the little wolf's back, then the soft and delicate down, and finally the warm, tense muscles and bones.
Ge Xiu brushed away its hair and carefully groped from the top of his head to the end of his back. He was a little surprised by how fast the wounds on the little wolf's body healed. Beneath the thick fur, it was clear that it was no longer threatening.
and…
Has it grown up a bit
Ge Xiu tilted his head, narrowed his eyes, and carefully looked at the little wolf curled up on the blanket, a little unsure.
The wound inspection was obviously completed, but Ge Xiu had no intention of withdrawing his hand. Instead, he continued to touch the fluffy fur of the little wolf.
Little Wolf raised his eyelids, his golden vertical pupils glanced coldly at the young man sitting cross-legged in front of him, and then withdrew his gaze.
It crossed its body, its back undulating smoothly with its breathing, and the hair on the tip of its tail didn't even move. Its sculpturally calm posture had an inexplicable sense of tolerance.
So, with the victim's connivance, Ge Xiu became more and more daring.
He sank his palms deep into the cub's thick fur, stroked his five fingers along the direction of the hair growth, stroked its well-defined side ribs, twisted the soft fleece covered by the relatively thick long hair, and then again Still poking at those pointed ears, the little wolf reacted abruptly and stepped back abruptly, but he still did not escape Ge Xiu's quick-witted capture.
Seeing that his pet finally no longer had so much resistance, Ge Xiu was very happy.
He grabbed the ear and rubbed the small piece of thin skin covered with fluff with interest with his fingertips. The velvety and hot touch was really addictive.
The little wolf was stiff all over and his limbs were tense, still maintaining the awkward posture just now, with a pair of golden vertical pupils staring round, as if he couldn't believe it, and seemed to be trying his best to suppress the urge to turn around and run away.
Its ears twitched frequently, and the slender hair on the ears scratched Ge Xiu's palm, and then slid back against his head, as if he wanted to stay away from the disturbing fingers, but he was still perseveringly caught.
The little wolf raised his eyes, bared his fangs, and glanced at Ge Xiu who was sitting beside him in warning.
But the beast's pupils flickered slightly, unexpectedly not having much deterrent power.
Ge Xiu touched the hot, pointed ear that had been rubbed, and finally retracted his hand contentedly.
The moment the little wolf was released, he retreated into the distance without a trace, and put his head on the paw on the side away from the other side. Jin Tong watched Ge Xiu vigilantly, as if he was preventing him from taking another shot.
Ge Xiu couldn't help laughing out loud, and a carefree and happy atmosphere overflowed from the corners of his brows and eyes.
He habitually bent his legs and hugged him in front of him, resting his chin on his knees, and suddenly asked casually, "Do you want to get out of here?"
The little wolf's pupils darkened slightly and stared at him fixedly.
Ge Xiu still had a faint smile on his lips, and the naive childishness that had been almost instantly condensed into an elusive and unpredictable feeling.
He tilted his head thoughtfully and said, "Something big is going to happen here."
However, in the next second, the smile on the boy's lips deepened again, and he became heartless again: "However, even if there is nothing, we still have to leave, right? After all, it is getting worse and worse. boring."
Ge Xiu lay back, spread out his limbs regardless of the image, and lamented:
"And ah... I haven't had candy for a long time... Are you saying there will be sugar on top of this place? It's the kind of round, sweet, hard stuff..."
Immediately afterwards, he frowned, as if thinking about some very profound philosophical question: "But then again, can you eat sugar? It is said that dogs can't eat chocolate, but you shouldn't be a species? After all, you have wings. …”
Gossiu muttered to himself in the dark.
Eileen still maintained his previous posture.
He quietly stared at the young man in front of him, the golden pupils that belonged only to beasts were flickering with a little crimson light, which looked deep and unpredictable.
leave.
The seal in Calvary is only aimed at dark creatures, and has no binding force on other faction species that have strayed into it. As long as the right method is found, it is entirely possible to leave.
Although he was eroded by the dark elements, he was still not completely degenerate.
But this human...
Eleanor wasn't even sure what kind of creature he belonged to.
So, a question that he had ignored for a long time surfaced - what if he couldn't leave
Elano lowered his pupils and licked his paws.
After this routine torture ended, Ge Xiu began to prepare to leave the abyss. According to his increasing strength and physical strength, the threat posed by the steep and steep cliffs was far less than before. The increasing control ability has also made him more handy in hunting at the bottom of the abyss, but in just two days, all the required items have been packed, and Leno's injury has basically completely improved.
Everything is ready.
Gossiu and Eleanor arrived at the previously chosen location and began to climb.
Their movements were quiet and swift, like two black shadows, walking along the steep rock wall.
Everything went smoothly.
At this moment, the blood-colored moonlight was obscured for a moment, and it seemed that a black shadow swept across the sky, wrapped in a cold and quiet air current.
Ge Xiu quickly hid sideways into a raised rock, and skillfully mobilized and condensed the dark elements, covering himself and the little wolf so tightly that no breath could be revealed.
It's very close to the top of the cliff. The deep and dark abyss is like a huge mouth of blood lying underfoot, quietly waiting for the arrival of the victim.
Ge Xiu glanced into the sky from the sight restricted by the rock, and saw the half-round blood moon, which was already close to an ellipse, hanging on one side of the cliff, illuminating the earth below, and under the scarlet moonlight, there was a dark shadow. Swiping from the top of the narrow abyss, the airflow set off by the huge bone wings made a shrieking air, and the flowing dark elements spun upward from the bottom of the abyss, bringing a terrifying and hidden sense of danger.
Although it is only a shadow passing by at a high speed, it can still make out the sharp curved long horns and the huge bone wings that can block the moonlight.
It's a demon.
Ge Xiu's eyes sank slightly. He doesn't know much about the Demon Race. Since most of the creatures in the abyss are low-level dark creatures, the relevant information obtained from them is also pitiful. What he knew was that the demons were the most loyal followers and fanatics of the Dark God. They were few in number, their hierarchy was strict and cruel, and they seldom left their territory voluntarily.
He couldn't figure out the reason for the other party's inspection, so he cautiously pressed his back against the cold rock wall, and the thick dark elements covered his body temperature, heartbeat and other life movements to almost zero, waiting quietly.
However, in the next second, the demon who was circling and patrolling in the air suddenly turned around, and his face was directly facing Ge Xiu's hiding place.
The far distance and the endless darkness made it impossible for Ge Xiu to see each other's expressions clearly, but at that moment, his heart was full of alarm bells, and his cells and nerves were clamoring for the arrival of danger - Ge Xiu didn't have time to think. , instinctively flicked to the side, and the rock that had originally covered his body exploded on the cheek, the sharp shrapnel-like rubble was blocked by the elemental shield condensed by intuition, and the large and small stones rubbed his cheeks. The side fell into the bottomless dark abyss, and even the sound of falling was completely swallowed.
As soon as the Demon Race's bone wings retracted, they swooped straight down!
Ge Xiu dodged the opponent's attack with difficulty, while jumping on the almost vertical rock wall, looking for a new foothold, while casting a spell to counterattack in the gap between dodging, the purple pupils of the demons flickered in the darkness. A strange and bloodthirsty gleam, he used his indestructible bone wings to sway the opponent's attack, as easily as knocking down a child's toy. The faint red lines on the pale complexion whispered something in an ancient and complicated language.
There is a strange rhythm in the foreign language, and the words spit out are like chants, like praise.
It's a pity that Ge Xiu doesn't understand the advanced demon language.
However, he seized this fleeting opportunity, and the venom-soaked arrow burst out of the air under his control, cutting through the protective layer of the demon's bone wing at a tricky angle, grazing his cheekbones. .
The corrosion sound of "Zizi" sounded.
Mozu wiped his face with sharp fingernails, deep purple blood flowed towards him from his jet-black nails and pale fingers, his expression gloomy, as if he had lost his patience, his wings slammed violently. With a jolt, he reached out and grabbed Ge Xiu.
At that moment of lightning, a gray shadow flashed through the darkness, rushing straight towards the outstretched arm of the Demon Race!
The sharp teeth easily penetrated the magic armor covering his arms, and the demons let out a sharp scream when he was caught off guard. His purple pupils were ignited by anger, and he raised his other hand and grabbed the back of the little wolf fiercely. The wings of the wolf were pulled down, and the sharp fingertips cut a huge wound on the wolf's wings.
The little wolf kept silent, locked the demons tightly with a pair of red-gold vertical pupils, and his sharp fangs slammed into the opponent's arm. Tear off the bloody piece, the dark purple blood dripped down, the little wolf spat out the flesh, turned his body, and the sharp claws instantly left several deep blood cuts on the back of his hand.
The strong smell of blood spreads in the night sky, and the smell of rust fills the air, occupying all the senses.
There are very few creatures that can hurt the skin of the demons with extremely high defense, but today he fell on two weak little things one after another.
The demons were aroused with ferocity, and he said in awkward common language:
"court death!"
In the end, the little wolf was too small, and the advantage of the raid just now was quickly lost. The sharp claws of the demons pierced deeply into its fur, and the deadly dark elements eroded in. As long as it deepened its strength again, its The limbs would be ripped from the torso alive, but the little wolf remained silent, staring at the enemy in front of him with fierce and fierce eyes.
At this moment, Ge Xiu shouted sharply: "Jump!"
The little wolf slammed into the mouth of the demon clan, and the demon clan let go of his palm in pain, and it immediately plunged into the bottomless abyss.
The demons threw off the blood on their hands. Although they were still unwilling, they did not forget their true goal, so he flapped his bone wings and rushed straight towards Ge Xiu, who was not far away.
The thin human boy was clinging to the rock wall, his face was almost bloodless, and a pair of deep black eyes shone with a strange shimmer.
He stared at the demons not far away, and a slight arc was silently raised on his pale lips.
The demons were condensed, and before he could react, a beam of elemental light with extremely strong destructive power hit him. He quickly dodged and avoided, the beam of light exploded on the wall behind him, and there was hardly any breathing In time, among the countless splashing stones, a huge net of elements came to cover him and slammed into the rock wall!
However, such an attack was far from being able to stop a demon with extremely strong physical fitness. He showed a cruel smile that was inevitable, and used his claws to easily open the net covering him. Under his claws, Nayou The large net made of elements condensed was as thin and fragile as a piece of paper - at that moment, the liquid inside was wrapped by the element net and poured down the face, and the scarlet viscous liquid poured the demons upright, fresh and alive. The smell of rust exploded instantly.
The demons licked the liquid that was drawn to their lips—human blood.
Almost at the same time, a scalp-tingling rustling sound came from the hole that had just been blasted open by the elemental beam of light, like countless hard claws resounding in the depths of the stone wall, magnified by the hollow stone wall into some kind of ominous sound. And with a strange sound, thousands of scarlet eyes lit up in the darkness of the cave, staring at the delicious food that happened to be delivered to the door with thirsty and evil eyes.
The Mozu was startled, and subconsciously prepared to flap his wings to leave, but the other party seemed to be ready, and the new elemental net came over and slowed down his movements for a moment.
An instant is enough.
Countless gigantic schistosomiasis rushed in like a river and ocean, densely wrapped around his body, and drowned him in just a few breaths, leaving only the chilling sound of cheetahs creeping down the spine.
Ge Xiu exhaled slowly, his arms hanging unnaturally by his side, his cold and pale fingertips trembling slightly due to excessive blood loss, he quickly cast a few spells to seal himself from being scratched. Open wounds to prevent excess blood odor from attracting schistosomes.
This is where the largest swarm of insects inhabits the entire abyss. He was dragged into it once, and they emptied the stone walls of this piece to build a worm nest.
Since being chased just now, he has been consciously fleeing in this direction.
After all, even if you can't kill the demons, it's enough to slow down for a while.
Ge Xiu moved his fingers slightly, and the dark element mesh cover that had been placed below slowly rose.
The wolf clawed tightly to the only support, and the injured wings flapped slightly behind him to speed up the ascent.
Ge Xiu put down the little wolf, his breath was still a little unstable: "Go."
Can't stay here for long.
The injured man and the wolf struggled to shuttle between the stone walls destroyed by the battle, climbed the remaining distance with the fastest speed, and then limped and disappeared on the sharp edge of the cliff.
Ten minutes later, the swarm of schistosomes wriggling and swallowing suddenly burst open, a huge magic mask tore the worms apart, and the schistosomes near the center were even completely turned into powder.
The scarred demons appeared in the pool of blood. He looked quite embarrassed, but the wounds on his body were healing quickly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
He gritted his teeth, his purple eyes flashing with anger.
He thought he was already winning, but he didn't expect that he was still put together and caused him to waste a high-level magic crystal - and, to make matters worse, according to the lord's order, he now has to report the other party's whereabouts. Now, the credit that could have been monopolized just flew out of his hands.
Although unwilling, the lord's orders cannot be disobeyed.
A small sound-transmission magic circle appeared in front of him with a brief chanting, and the bright purple light illuminated the dark abyss.
The demons lowered their heads and respectfully reported in the high-level demon language:
"My lord, I found him."
