"Hurry up, hurry up! Run, run!"
"If you want to survive, run as hard as you can!"
In the dense forest, nearly a thousand naked and hungry people ran wildly with bare feet, everyone scrambling to be the first, even the dozens of mercenaries who were wearing shoes and responsible for maintaining order were in a mess. The leader of the mercenary captain, covered in blood, carried a huge ax on his back, and kept waving his hands, signaling to the exhausted and hungry people to run faster and not stop for a moment.
Faintly, in the dense forest behind, there is a huge red wolf with blood red eyes appearing.
As long as the mercenaries in charge of the care are not paying attention, they will pounce from the hiding place and attack at lightning speed. With their huge mouths, they can grab the thin prey in one bite, and they can easily be dragged into Lin Meng and tear them apart.
There are as many as twenty or thirty of them.
And extremely cunning.
Born to know how to deal with mercenaries, if the mercenaries in charge of guarding are a little slack, they will attack successfully!
"Bastard, get out of here!" The mercenary captain is the only one who can fight this kind of red wolf alone, but even his giant axe can't kill this kind of red wolf, it can only cut and force the red wolf back. A hungry wolf with extremely greedy skin and thick flesh.
A silver ax pierced through the air and slashed down heavily.
The red wolf, which was talking about a hungry person, was wounded on the head and neck, the neck skin was split, and the blood spattered.
It let out a whining sound, reluctantly dropped the prey in its mouth, and quickly fled into the forest with its tail flattened.
The starving man thrown on the ground was already dead. His head was completely pierced, and his head was gurgling out. Although his hands and feet were still twitching slightly, he was absolutely hopeless. The mercenary captain doesn't need to look. He knows that this kind of red wolf is extremely cruel. Even if he has to throw away the food in his mouth, he will kill the enemy first. Unless the strength is higher than that of the red wolf, no one can survive the wolf's kiss .
He shook his head, turned around, and waved his arms vigorously: "Run, everyone, run faster, you will run out of the Scarlet Wolf Forest in no time, run as hard as you can!"
After he took a few steps away, the wounded red wolf poked its head out again.
Observing the surrounding situation cunningly, in an instant, it dragged the body of the hungry man who was gnashing his teeth into the bushes... It didn't give up at all, but the opponent was very strong and unable to fight, so it backed down a little.
While this red wolf was tearing up its food, more red wolves were still wandering behind, looking for opportunities to attack.
Food is usually scarce in the forest, but this time there are a large number of prey passing by, and they naturally don't want to miss it.
Plop, plop!
More than a dozen vines hanging in the forest tripped the hungry people who were running for their lives in a panic.
At first, only a few people fell to the ground.
But the people behind just followed and didn't see the front clearly, and even if they saw clearly, they couldn't stop their pace. Let the vines trip, let the companions trip, and it immediately became a chain reaction. Except for a few people with a little strength who were able to cross over, the rest of the hungry people who staggered and fled fell to the ground one after another, like a pile of dominoes that collapsed with the trend.
When the mercenary captain found out and rushed over to deal with it, there were already exhausted people on the ground.
There are also some hungry people who did not stumble, but worried that they would fall into the wolf's kiss if they left the team.
They didn't dare to run any more, and stayed beside their companions in fear.
Even the group of people who ran past the tree-vine area didn't know what to do when they turned around and saw this situation. Should we continue to flee for our lives, or go back? If he continued to escape, then a few people would not be enough for wolves to chew on. If you go back to the team, you may be safe for the time being, but behind the wolf, there are still more terrifying enemies chasing! If those enemies catch up, it will definitely be more tragic than dying at the wolf's mouth... Now, what should we do? Keep running, or stop and take a breath
"Fool, don't run fast, it will be over if the enemy catches up!" A few bold hungry people let go of their feet and continued to move forward.
They are all men. Although they are thin and weak, they are still men, and they are better than women in making decisions.
Most of the thousands of people are old and weak women and children.
They couldn't make a decision at all, and could only look helplessly at the mercenary captain who was in charge of everyone's safety. They hoped that he would come up with a good idea!
ah, ah...
The few men running ahead were thrown down by the red wolf who circled to the front, screaming in pain.
This situation shocked the whole team.
There are wolves ahead, what should I do
"Run, wolves, it doesn't matter, we will deal with them, you continue to run, the real enemy is looking for us, if we catch up, all of us will die!" The mercenary captain ordered five members to rush forward and protect the front crowd. He roared anxiously, signaling people not to stop, let alone rest, they must run with all their strength, otherwise they would not be able to survive at all.
"Help me, save me..."
An old man was thrown down by a wolf. He held onto a vine tightly and cried out for help.
The red wolf pulled hard, but couldn't move. Annoyed, he tore the old man's body in half with his front paws.
The old man was still alive, and half of his body fell to the ground, rolling over and over, and the wailing he made was simply horrific. The mercenary captain closed his eyes. He had seen too many such lives disappear.
At the time of departure, there were nearly ten thousand people fleeing for their lives.
Now, there are less than a thousand people left.
He waved his hands vigorously and shouted: "Everyone can get closer, but we must keep moving forward. I will not wait for those left behind. If any of you can't leave, then I will definitely leave you behind." Yes. If you want to survive, then run as hard as you can. This place is not far from Jinyang City. If you run there, you will have the possibility of survival. You have all run thousands of kilometers, just a little bit. Do you want to give up here? If you have strength, take over the child. If you have no strength, grit your teeth and persevere! Just pass the red wolf forest, and there are almost no beasts behind. If we get to a safe place, we will take a rest ,but not now!"
"Hold! Hua'er, remember to take good care of your brother, you know?" An old woman suddenly handed the baby in her arms to the thin little girl beside her.
"Grandma..." The little girl trembled all over, but her little black hands tightly held the gasping baby.
"You are so old, you have to be sensible, you have to take care of your brother, grandma can't walk anymore, you have to live well in the future." The old woman smiled, leaned over and hugged the little girl, and kissed her forehead lightly: "I Dear baby, you must live on. The merciful god will take care of you in the sky. At any time, don’t give up hope. The hope of our family rests on you. You must work hard to survive, Hua Son!"
The little girl burst into tears and nodded desperately.
She was sensible early on and understood what was going to happen next.
What the old woman did was not only her alone, but dozens of old people or women entrusted the babies in their arms or the relatives around them to others, and kept them by themselves, feeding wolves with their bodies.
Just as before when venturing through a dangerous area infested with ferocious beasts, someone must make a sacrifice for the rest to escape.
Now there are only twenty or thirty red wolves, which is still relatively small.
Dozens of people can fill their stomachs. At least, they can temporarily stop chasing the fleeing crowd and concentrate on eating blood and meat. Seeing a group of starving people staying behind, the mercenary captain did not refuse. In fact, he had no better way. This sacrifice is already the best way! He doesn't have great strength, he can't even kill a red wolf, and he can't stop this kind of tragedy from happening at all.
Along the way, I don't know how many people stood up like this, sacrificed for their relatives, and exchanged their lives for their relatives' survival.
Because of the lack of adult men, it was the wounded who stood up at first.
Then there are old people without relatives.
Afterwards, there was no one who could be sacrificed, but some people still stood up and sacrificed themselves... In the whole team, the ones with the highest survival rate were babies and little girls, because they were the last hope of the whole fleeing team.
If they were all dead, there would be no point in running away!
"Grandma is gone!" The old woman took out a dagger, and rushed towards the red wolf, who was looking into the distance, and rushed towards the enemy with all her strength. When the red wolf was about to slap her on the ground with one paw, she mustered up her last remaining strength and stabbed the red wolf in the eye with a dagger. Then, she stretched her limbs with a smile... On her chest and abdomen, a deep paw print smashed all the internal organs.
She never thought that she could kill a red wolf, but she hoped that she could do her last bit of strength for the departure of her granddaughter and grandson.
Dozens of hungry people left behind for self-sacrifice, but very few of them successfully wounded the red wolf.
Instead, these people were quickly hunted down by red wolves.
Torn to pieces...
The fleeing crowd, with tears in their eyes, went on the road again. In the middle of the crowd, the little girl's dirty face let the tears rush out a few white traces, but she didn't cry, she gritted her teeth desperately, hugged her brother tightly, wrapped in the crowd, staggered Running staggeringly.
She, she didn't know how long this escape would last, but her survival instinct made her exceed her limit time and time again.
"While the red wolf is eating, we have to leave the red wolf forest as soon as possible, the front is safe, we have to hurry up, hurry up, run!" The mercenary captain was very anxious, the real terrifying enemy was not the red wolf, but An existence that is a hundred times more terrifying than the red wolf. If those enemies were allowed to catch up, the entire army would be completely wiped out. It was impossible to pass through with a hundred or so people left like the red wolves.
"It's so touching, I almost burst into tears." There was a sharp owl-like voice that came from the forest.
"It's a parting from life and death. I also appreciate this play very much. If only a few more people can die, it will be more touching!" Another loud voice like a gong sounded, and the voice was like thunder. It exploded above everyone's heads.
Hearing this voice, all the hungry people who were desperately fleeing went limp.
It was even more exaggerated than stumbling on trees and vines, and they fell to the ground one by one.
Trembling with fear.
Panicked, his eyes were more frightened than seeing a ghost!
Not to mention these old and weak women and children, even the mercenary captain who had been calm all the time was ashamed.
It turned out that dozens of mercenaries who had been protecting the hungry people from escaping were stunned, some weapons fell to the ground, and some even knelt on their knees begging for mercy. A few mercenaries left the hungry people and tried their best to escape, intending to escape from here... a few pictures The leaves flew towards them like darts, and pierced through the necks of those fleeing mercenaries with a whistling sound.
When those mercenaries fell back to the ground, they were already decapitated.
Spike!
They don't even have the strength to resist, just a few leaves can instantly kill these mercenaries whose strength is around the fifth level of the earth.
"It's so disappointing to me. I thought there would be a few people rushing to resist and make great self-sacrifice, but I didn't expect not one." The man with a voice like a night owl floated out like a bat. Seeing this person appear, those greedy red wolves were also frightened and scattered, not caring about grabbing the flesh and blood on the ground, one by one frantically ran for their lives with their tails between their legs.
Of course, their results were the same as those of the fleeing mercenaries.
I couldn't see that weird man making a move at all, it seemed that there was a whirlwind around him, and dozens of fallen leaves flew out, instantly killing the red wolf who couldn't be killed by the mercenary captain with a single blow.
Red wolf, all decapitated.
They used to be predators, but now they all turned into dead bodies!
The mercenary captain is desperate... This man's strength is stronger and weirder than the rumors, and he has no chance at all!
He sighed, raised the giant ax in his hand, and prepared to commit suicide. He knew that if he fell into the hands of this man, he would definitely regret living in this world. Rather than living, he would rather die than die, and it would be better to end it early and not suffer from the torture!
"I didn't agree. Do you think you can die? Do you think my name 'manipulating hand' is called for nothing? My manipulating hand can not only control the life of the enemy, but also control the death of the enemy." Voice The strange bat-like man who looked like a night owl flicked his finger, and a fallen leaf floated up silently, cutting the giant ax in the hands of the mercenary captain in half.
"You have all escaped so far, if you just give up like this, it would be too boring, how about this, I will play a game with you. I will count a hundred, if any of you can escape my sight, then the city lord will let you go Stand up and run away, hahaha, how merciful I am!" The loud voice like a broken gong appeared, it was a noble man carrying a golden throne on the shoulders of eighteen slaves, dressed in Baokai, holding fine wine, and a blood-red cloak fluttering in the air, even, between his knees, there is a naked naked female slave, snuggling at his feet, pouring wine for him.
"..." Seeing this man appear, the hearts of all the fugitives were completely desperate.
This self-proclaimed benevolent man is more than ten times vicious than the guy who likes to manipulate other people's life and death just now. If he is the cruelest and most tyrannical person in Tianhuayu, I believe no one around here will object.
No one runs away because everyone knows it.
It's useless to run away again.
Let alone whether he can escape from his sight within a hundred or so, even if he can, this guy will not keep his promise!
There was a dead silence in the crowd, only the little girl who was holding her brother, lowered her head, squeezed out of the crowd, and ran forward desperately...
"Yes, yes, that's it. Run faster, faster, and I'll count right away. Don't you want to survive like her? I'll give you this chance! Everyone run away, I'm only counting one now, Pay attention, I'm only counting to one now, when I count to one hundred, I'll save any of you from my sight... What a pity, none of you responded to my proposal! This city lord is so upset , can't you just struggle and give me a little pleasure? Fortunately, there is a little girl participating in my game, haha, yes, I like people who have always held on to hope in their hearts, and how happy it is if they can kill the hope in a person's heart One more thing. Well, now it's time to count to two... three, four, five, six, girl, you have to run faster, faster, haha, and then after seven, eight, nine What? Of course it is one hundred! Well, little girl, you know that I am not very good at counting. It is a pity that you have not run out of sight when you counted to one hundred. You should be faster !"
"Ah, ah, let go!" A slave's figure flashed, and the little girl was caught by it like a chicken, and thrown under the golden seat.
Hungry people, hide your faces and can't bear to look any longer.
They knew that this guy would not be trusted, but so what? Without power, there is no right or wrong!
The little girl was crying. She hugged her younger brother tightly and sobbed, "After nine is ten, not a hundred..." Now she is still serious. Although she is sensible, she is a child after all and doesn't understand each other. Why break the promise.
The middle-aged man sitting on the golden seat laughed so hard that tears were splashing out.
He patted the armrest of the throne: "That's right, after nine is ten, not one hundred, but I like to call one hundred in advance, can't I? I didn't say that I must count them all, hahaha, do you think the city owner Is it particularly hateful? Do you feel particularly wronged? A little more sad, or a little more angry, I like to see your eyes that dare not speak out, haha, little poor worms, you who have been ravaged, are the biggest city lord. I feel a sense of accomplishment when I see you weak and tortured to death under my feet... You will never understand that this is a sense of accomplishment unique to the strong. What is a strong? Can control the fate of others at will That's right!"
"Do you still want to play?" The strange man with a voice like a night owl and a shape like a bat seemed to frown a little.
"Don't be nervous, no one will come here. Besides, this place has been abandoned by the lord long ago, and it has become an abandoned place. No matter how many of these weak ants die, who cares? It's rare to come out Breathe, we will go back immediately when we don't have fun, it's too much of a waste of opportunity, you know, no one has dared to run away for a long time!" The middle-aged man sitting in the golden seat laughed loudly.
"Then, it's up to you..." The man who sounded like a night owl and looked like a bat shook his head, and floated aside.
"Come here, first peel off the little girl's skin, pay attention, don't damage it a little, it must be intact. As for the baby, it is too thin and has nothing to eat. Let's dig out his heart and liver and roast it. , I want to eat sweet brains, don't give me salty brains like last time." The middle-aged man sitting in the golden seat gave orders.
"Don't kill me, please, spare us!" The little girl was so frightened that she collapsed on the ground, and a slave came over directly, trying to dig out the baby's heart, so she screamed and jumped at the slave, opening her mouth The mouth, with the only weapon, bites the enemy with its teeth.
This is her only resistance.
Although it was useless, it was a resistance after all, not like those hungry people and mercenaries who waited numbly to die.
The mercenary captain secretly took out a dagger, but before he committed suicide, he found that his whole body was paralyzed, and he stood stiffly, and it was impossible to blink.
Sure enough, in front of that enemy who has the ability of 'Manipulating Hand', it is impossible to commit suicide. If you can't die, your own ending may not be better than the skinned little girl... It's over, everything is over!
"I appreciate this kind of resistance. If everyone is like this, then the city owner will definitely not be bored. Before peeling off her human skin, first pry off her teeth one by one. Be careful, the roots are also It can’t be broken, it must be pried out completely, each piece must be complete, I want to collect it!” The middle-aged man sitting on the golden seat drank a glass of fine wine with satisfaction, and then made some adjustments on the spur of the moment, prying his teeth first, Peel it again so you have two collectibles.
Just when the slave took out his sharp knife and was about to pry his teeth.
Its body shook slightly.
Suddenly fell to the ground.
He fell to the ground, and after a few seconds, he split into two halves from the head to the bottom.
"What's going on?" The middle-aged man sitting on the golden seat was stunned, the wine in his hand was spilled, who did it? To actually kill someone in front of him, and still be able to do so in such a concealed manner, it's so silent, killing people invisible!
A shadow flew from afar, landed on the little girl's side in full view, and hugged her as soon as he stretched out his hand: "Fortunately, it's not hurt. This damn place is so annoying, it can't be teleported, idiot, I'm almost late, what are you waiting for? Do it now, kill all these guys, no, take them down first, pry their teeth and peel their skins, I'm so angry!"
The person who came was of course Princess Sissi, and the angry Hu Niu was definitely not something to be trifled with.
Now she can be said to be extremely angry!
The shadow that appeared behind was not Yue Yang, but Feng Ji, the poor thief who claimed to be unparalleled in speed but was far behind Princess Sissy's flight.
As for student Yue Yang, he didn't know when he had already sat on the back of the golden seat. It doesn't matter if he sits on the back of someone else's chair, he even crossed his legs and stepped on the middle-aged man's shoulder directly: "Use treasures to confine the space, right? It's the first time in my life that young master is late, how are you going to compensate me? Teeth and human skin are useless, this young master's noble taste cannot be directly mentioned by trash like you!"
"What?" The middle-aged man immediately became angry. Someone dared to step on his shoulder? It's just courting death!
He jumped up, with all his strength.
Blast to Yueyang.
