Richard moved the lens tube slowly, and the scene of the hill was magnified and brought closer to his eyes, and some details were revealed.
The hill had obviously experienced a fierce battle. The ground was rolled up and covered with scorch marks. Grigory could see no trace and had no idea whether he had won or lost the battle, let alone whether he was alive or dead.
Suddenly, Richard raised his eyebrows, and saw a black shadow moving away from him in the telescope, walking out of the corner of the field of view, and finally appearing completely in the center of the field of view, with his head lowered as if to check something.
what to check for
Richard was just wondering, but the next moment he saw that the other party suddenly noticed something and suddenly turned his head, looking straight into the telescope. Richard's eyes and the other person's eyes collided instantly in the lens tube.
For an instant, Richard felt as if lightning was striking from the other party's pupils, which stung his eyes.
Is this... the real wizard in the current world
With a slight shock in his heart, Richard clearly felt the hairs all over his body stand up, his muscles tensed, his pores shrank, his heart beat faster, and adrenaline began to secrete in his body.
This is a danger warning from the body.
The danger and deep malice that Gregory once felt suddenly came to him at this moment.
Richard took a deep breath and pursed his lips. He did not expect that the situation would change like this.
Originally, he just wanted to sneak back quietly, figure out what happened, and then adapt accordingly. Finding a way to save Gregory, handing Pandora to Gregory, and then leaving quickly with the suitcase is obviously the best result. Maybe, when he leaves, the heavy snow will not fall.
But Richard did not expect that wizards in the current world would be able to detect people peering through telescopes at a distance of nearly a thousand meters. Is the wizard's perception so sharp, and are all wizards so strong? You also said yes, but the other party is so powerful
But no matter what, if the other party looks over, all plans will be disrupted. The development of things was directly pushed into an extremely bad state.
The next moment, he saw in the lens tube that the other party had turned around, walked down the hill, and was heading towards his position. Without saying a word, Richard pulled Pandora and ran towards the depths of the forest. His brain was spinning rapidly, thinking of ways to deal with it.
The opponent is obviously very powerful. Even Gregory is no match. He, a first-level wizard apprentice, and Pandora, a young girl dragon, cannot defeat each other even if they are tied together. Even if he uses "Wind Lightness" to escape, he won't be able to escape successfully, because the opponent's speed is likely to be much faster than him.
The current situation can basically be summed up as: we can’t fight, and we can’t escape.
What to do
It seems... I can only go to an extreme.
The world is complex, and the strong may not always defeat the weak. Strength may be the key to victory, but it is not everything.
So…
"Snapped!"
Richard pulled Pandora's running footsteps to a sudden stop. He took a step forward and broke a few dead branches, and arranged some arrangements to make a sign of continuing to escape. Then he pulled Pandora to the side, carefully cleaning up the footprints along the way.
After walking a certain distance, I had a premonition that the enemy was about to catch up. I focused my eyes and took Pandora in a circuitous way towards the hill.
It is absolutely impossible to escape, so you can only use the other party's possible blind spots in thinking to try to buy a little time and gain some hope.
"We are going back to the hill now." Richard said to Pandora while running, his voice was a little serious, "When we go back to the hill, no matter what you see or what happens, make sure not to get excited. You must be obedient! Because if you don’t obey, things will get extremely bad, not only for you, but also for me. Okay?”
"Scared." Pandora said, nodded for a moment and said, "Okay."
"That's good." Richard nodded and sped up again.
…
A few moments.
Richard and Pandora returned to the hill and reached the top of the hill.
Looking at it, Richard couldn't help but sigh.
Although I had seen part of the scene through the telescope before, I still didn't expect that the top of the hill would be so tragic.
Everything on the hill was destroyed, the Dragon Cave collapsed, the Black Castle collapsed, and a series of experimental buildings he built also collapsed. Large areas of the ground were rolled and scorched, and bright red blood flowed on the ground like a river.
The blood obviously belonged to Grigory, and only Grigory's huge body could shed so much blood.
At this time, Gregory had lost his entire body. The only evidence that could prove his existence was a severed tail left on the ground, and there was a blood mark on it from Pandora. I really don’t know what he went through. That's what attacks do.
Gregory is dead
obviously.
Of course, one could also forcefully say that he was not dead, but injured and missing. After all, he had never personally seen Gregory's body being blown to pieces. But as long as you are rational, you will know that the chance of Gregory surviving and escaping is almost zero.
Pandora stood on the ground, her body frozen, staring blankly at the pool of blood and the severed tail in the pool of blood, motionless. I don’t know what I’m thinking about, or rather, I’m not thinking about anything at this moment.
Pandora's mind was blank.
For a long time, Gregory was everything to her, even though he didn't care about her, often made her angry, and often left her to go out alone, leaving her bored to wait. But after all, Gregory was her only relative and only concern in this world.
No matter where she was, no matter what the situation was, she knew that Gregory would eventually come back to be with her.
But now, all that has changed.
Gregory died, or disappeared.
Her only relative is gone, and there will never be anyone to accompany her again.
At this moment, Pandora felt very complicated in her heart. She didn't know whether it was sadness, fear, or both. My eyes felt a little blurry and my nose felt a little sore. I didn't know if I wanted to cry or scream. I feel that the whole world is a little strange and empty. I don’t know if it’s boredom, or something more boring than boredom—nothing to think about in life
"Gerry... Gaoli..." Pandora called out softly, her voice seeming to echo in her throat. She felt her body shaking a little and wanted to fall to the ground. At this moment, Richard's hand appeared, fell on her shoulder, and supported her.
For a moment, Pandora felt her cold body regain some warmth. She turned to look at Richard and opened her mouth, but said silently: "..."
At this time, Richard had already found the uncrushed suitcase from the ruins of the black castle, and also found many useful things.
Richard put his hand on Pandora's shoulder and spoke seriously.
