When Allen packed his things and left the Folsom family quietly, he naturally met Sui Yuan who had been waiting for him for a long time, waiting for him to throw himself into the trap. Seeing Sui Yuan's expression of "I've expected you to be like this", Allen was obviously taken aback. After all, in his impression, Sui Yuan was not bad in nature but arrogant and self-willed. Children with human face and "intelligence quotient".
Allen thought that his whereabouts would be discovered, but he never thought that this person was actually Sui Yuan.
Playing as Eli for a long time, Sui Yuan has naturally lit up the skill of self-willedness and obsession. He doesn't want to make things big, but Alan, who can't resist Sui Yuan's entanglement, finally has no choice but to let go and agree to Sui Yuan to go with him .
Of course, what really convinced him was Sui Yuan's ability not to lose to him, and Leonard who was inseparable from Sui Yuan. I have to say that Allen, who knew Leonard's strength, was very relieved when he heard that he would go into the jungle with them to find Sen Nuo's whereabouts.
As a sub-beast with only some auxiliary spells and a delicate body, it is impossible for Alan to enter the jungle alone. According to the original idea, Alan planned to spend a fortune to hire a group of real beasts and take him to the jungle. The location of the incident.
In addition to the real beasts that joined the army, other real beasts with other occupations would also spontaneously form private teams during this period, enter the jungle together, and select some strange beasts within their capabilities to hunt, and these teams were Allen's goals.
In the face of beast hordes, a single tree cannot make a forest, and even the powerful Leonard cannot support it alone. Therefore, although the joining of Leonard and Sui Yuan gave Alan greater hope, he still chose to follow the original plan.
Regarding this, Sui Yuan and Leonard have no opinion at all. Their mission is to protect Alan's safety. As for the development of the plot, that's what Alan has to do.
Because the three of Allen are all good in strength, coupled with the generous commission, they quickly selected a good orc team and headed towards the area where Sen Nuo disappeared. After hearing that Alan risked himself in order to find his "friend" who was missing in the beast tide, all the real beasts in the team expressed sympathy and affection for him, and even had a faint feeling for having such a "brave and Sen Nuo, who is a "loyal" lover, is very envious.
Compared with Alan who quickly became one with the orcs, Sui Yuan and Leonard are more self-contained. One of them is arrogant and the other is indifferent. They are full of aristocratic style and powerful, and they never need the help of others, so they rarely take the initiative to talk to other people, and other orcs dare not speak at will, so as not to disturb the two of them.
After a younger real beast couldn't help showing affection to Sui Yuan, but was rudely chased away by Leonard, all the real beasts in the team calmed down obediently and left their independent space to These two soon-to-be lovers.
The jungle during the beast tide period was very dangerous. In just a day or two, they encountered groups of different beasts, large and small, and either repelled them or escaped from death. What worried them, But it's not just about strange beasts, it's also about the rapidly cooling weather.
"It's not normal..." The leader of the real beast lit a bonfire and began to grill the meat of the alien beast. His resolute face was full of worries and doubts. "It's obviously not winter according to the time. Why is it suddenly so cold?"
Seeing that this topic was brought up, the real beasts began to discuss in a hurry, and occasionally looked at Alan curled up by the campfire to resist the cold with some guilt—they were discussing the issue of returning to the city.
The temperature dropped sharply, seriously affecting the actions of the orcs. It was impossible for them to linger in such a cold jungle for too long. Once the temperature dropped below the snow line, they had to return. However, they did not follow the agreement to find Any leads to Senno.
However, even if Alan offered a huge commission, the orcs would not be able to risk their lives for it. Although they apologized, there was no other better way than returning all the commission.
Hearing everyone's discussion, Allen's face was very ugly, and his face turned pale with sadness and cold. Sui Yuan, who didn't know how to comfort him, turned his head a little unbearably, and shrank into Leonard's arms—he was also very cold, the hot air he exhaled seemed to freeze instantly, and his hands and feet were also frozen Almost lost consciousness.
After eating and preparing to camp, a light snow suddenly fell in the sky that had been gloomy all day.
Although the snow-white snowflakes looked extraordinarily beautiful in the dark night, the orcs who saw this scene became nervous instantly.
"...It seems that we really have to go back." The orc leader stood up, turned into a gray wolf and shook his fur, and the rest of the real beasts also turned into beasts, using their thick fur to resist the snowy night. Leonard was naturally no exception, the black cheetah carefully circled Sui Yuan under him, trying its best to keep him warm with its fur.
The only one who can't transform into a beast and has no shelter is Alan.
Although it was very cold, Allen still gratefully and apologetically rejected the suggestion of the leader and the other real beasts to help him warm up. Although he has not yet clearly understood what his feelings for Senuo are, he does not want to Being so close to other real beasts when the other party's life or death is uncertain, even if it's just for warmth.
The real beasts helped Alan find a place out of the wind, and moved the bonfire to his side. Sui Yuan also walked over, and handed him the blanket that was originally wrapped around him.
"Thank you." Allen thanked softly without declining. He really needs this very much, and now Alan already regards Sui Yuan as one of his own, there is no need to maintain the politeness of being distant and cautious.
"I just don't want you to freeze to death before my brother is found." Sui Yuan curled his lips and spoke arrogantly.
Alan smiled, stretched out his hand to shake Sui Yuan's hand, completely immune to his bad tone: "No, don't worry."
Sui Yuan shook his hand away, walked back to Leonard's side under Alan's slightly smiling eyes, and got under him in frustration.
"Just give up." Hei Panther moved, comforting lazily.
Sui Yuan buried his face on Leonard's fluffy belly without saying a word, looking like he was angry.
"Your self-contained attribute is [the protagonist's best friend]." 5237 sighed quietly, "Next time I will try my best to help you choose a character based on this, so as not to ruin the relationship again."
Sui Yuan: "..."
This early snowy night is destined to be impossible to spend without incident. When Sui Yuan was soundly asleep, a noise woke him up. Getting out from under Leonard, Sui Yuan saw sleepily that the real beast leader had changed back to human form, holding a lighted torch, and woke up the rest of the beastmen with a solemn expression.
The light snow that was originally just light and fluffy turned into heavy snow at some point, and the real beasts who woke up had solemn faces and quickly began to pack their things.
"What's wrong?" Allen, who had finally fallen asleep, also woke up, and asked blankly, slowly moving his frozen hands and feet.
"We have to find a place to avoid the snow." The orc leader quickly replied, "The snow is getting bigger and bigger, we can't continue camping outside, and I always feel that there may be a snowstorm next, we must find a place before that." A safe place to stay."
Although there is no clear understanding of the seriousness of the current situation, this does not prevent Allen from following the team leader's arrangement, and Sui Yuan and Leonard also packed up their things without saying a word, glanced at each other, and understood They read the meaning of "plot" from the gaze of the other party, and both heaved a sigh of relief—at least Sui Yuan was indeed relieved.
It seems that even though the time has been abruptly advanced by one year, what should come is still here. Sui Yuan lay on Leonard's shoulder, happily recalling the plot.
In the original text, Allen encountered a blizzard shortly after entering the jungle. In order to avoid the snow, a group of people rushed into the lair that belonged to the alien beast in a panic, but they were lucky enough to meet Monroe and Leonard who were also avoiding the snow here. Not only that, but in this lair, he also unexpectedly found the records left by his predecessors who traveled through time—but these handwritings have always been regarded by the orcs as decorative patterns left by their ancient ancestors.
Next, thanks to these records, Alan stood on the tall shoulders of his predecessors, finally completed the unfinished research of his predecessors, and became a hero of the orc race in one fell swoop. It was logical.
"There's a cave in front! It looks like it should be the lair of a strange beast, but we can't control so much now, let's go in and take a look?" the leader walking in the front said loudly, his voice passing through the growing wind It looks a little ethereal. Although it is undoubtedly a very dangerous thing to break into the beast's lair in such a sleepy, tired and cold situation, it seems that there is no other better choice.
It was meaningless to see everyone, so the team leader gathered a few younger, more vigorous real beasts, and stepped into the lair carefully, while the rest of them waited at the entrance of the cave for the time being, and entered after the situation was clarified.
While everyone was waiting anxiously, there was a roar of a beast in the cave. The orcs were surprised at first, and then delighted, because they realized that the sound was not a strange beast, but a member of their tribe.
Allen subconsciously stood up straight and looked into the cave. Although it was a little distorted due to the echo, he still felt that the voice was very familiar. Turning his head to look at Sui Yuan and Leonard, seeing that the two of them also responded to the familiar voice, Alan stopped hesitating immediately, and ran into the room calling out the name "Sen Nuo" without waiting for the real beast beside him to stop him. After entering the cave, Sui Yuan and Leonard followed closely behind.
When Sui Yuan and Leonard saw Alan and Senuo, they only saw the two hugging each other tightly, as if they had survived the catastrophe. Sen Nuo was seriously injured and was almost dying. After all, what Leonard and Monroe experienced together in the original text, Sen Nuo could only support himself alone. It was indeed not easy to survive.
After a moment of surprise, Alan fell into panic and anxiety again, and immediately took out the spell to heal Sen Nuo, and Sui Yuan also walked over, knelt down beside Sen Nuo, and helped Alan take care of his injury.
Seeing his younger brother, Sen Nuo finally moved his gaze away from Alan, looked at him with surprise, reproach and relief, raised his hand, and squeezed Sui Yuan's fingers feebly.
With Sui Yuan and Ai Lun taking care of them, Sen Nuo's injury quickly stabilized. Leonard stayed by Sui Yuan's side all the time, while the rest of the real beasts held torches and checked the entire cave to make sure there was nothing wrong with it. After the danger, he relaxed, lit the bonfire, and began to make preparations for camping.
"Is this the person you're looking for?" The orc leader walked to Allen's side and asked softly.
Allen finally showed his first unburdened smile in a while, and nodded solemnly.
"Congratulations." The team leader said sincerely. Although he had a good impression of Allen, he saw Sen Nuo who was guarding him with guarded eyes, and finally left wisely, sighing secretly that "a famous flower has its own owner".
Sen Nuo, who had finally regained his strength, drank warm water and ate some barbecue. Under Alan's inquiry, he briefly described his experience during this period of time, and then began to reprimand Sui Yuan and Alan in disapproval for disregarding It is dangerous to go deep into the jungle willfully at this time.
Alan knew that Sen Nuo was just worried, so he let him teach him a good temper, while Sui Yuan replied pamperingly, "If we don't come, you will definitely die here", he was not very cooperative with the atmosphere of reunion after a long absence. Leonard hugged him aside, indicating that it was time for him to sleep.
After being glared sullenly by his brother's prospective partner, Senuo scratched his hair helplessly. Although he was indeed relieved that the other party's almost unprincipled protection, the unhappiness that his brother was completely taken away was still hard to erase.
However, when he looked at Allen and found out from his own perspective that if he stood in Leonard's perspective, he would probably do the same thing, Sen Nuo finally smiled.
Alan, who was bandaging him, was stared at by Sen Nuo, his scalp was a little numb, and he coughed lightly in embarrassment: "What's the matter?"
"If I can go back smoothly..." Sen Nuo covered Alan's hand and asked softly, "Can I be your guardian?"
Allen was taken aback for a moment, then his face flushed suddenly, and he lowered his head helplessly. If he accepted it, he still couldn't get over the hurdle in his heart, but if he refused... Alan really didn't want to answer like this.
Although he didn't hear a definite answer, seeing Alan's appearance, Sen Nuo's eyes gradually lit up, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Looking at Alan and Senuo, who were "in love" just now, one was shy and the other was silly, and looked at the other side who had already entered the "old couple" mode, one bossing around in each other's arms, while the other Sui Yuan and Leonard indulged without complaint, and the rest of the orcs in the cave had only one thought in their minds:
Show affection, be struck by lightning!
