Originally, Rotgar would have been very proud when he heard that Anna only called him by his name when she was in danger.
But now he couldn't be happy at all.
He actually let Anna be captured by the three-headed magic eagle under his nose! What a shame!
Rotgar and Leon reacted almost at the same time and chased after them, but they were only two-star mages now, and the three-headed magic eagle was stronger than the ordinary three-star mages, and was very fast. The two were instantly separated, and then Coupled with the obstruction of trees, they soon lost sight of her.
Only Anna's distant shouts pointed them in the direction of pursuit.
But Leon only chased her a little distance before he stopped. He quickly said to Rotgar: "I'll send Natalie back first, you leave a mark!"
Rotgar could only care about Anna and ignore the safety of others, but Leon could not. He couldn't take Natalie further in, as the line of life and death became more and more dangerous the further inside, even he couldn't guarantee Natalie's safety.
Rotgar only glanced at Leon with a sneer, and then used all his strength of the wind element to shuttle through the canopy and pursue Anna in the direction of her shouts.
Leon glanced in the air, but the tree canopy was dense and he couldn't see where Anna was being taken. He pursed his lips and turned back to find Natalie.
After Anna tried to scream and found that the monster holding her had no response, she opened her throat and screamed to give the direction to the demon who saved her.
If you shout in an open space, your voice can travel far.
However, apart from the unbearable pain in her shoulders, Anna was not that scared in her heart.
She was so sure that the devil wouldn't let her die.
But she also had concerns. These three monsters looked quite powerful. The devil might not be able to defeat them with Raymond's body, so he would have to reveal his true form, right
She hoped that he could reveal his true form where she couldn't see him, pretend to be a passing good devil and rescue her, and then return to Raymond's body as if nothing had happened, pretending that he was late.
Anna shouted that she was tired for a while, and then she felt the speed of the three-headed magic eagle slow down. Then the claws holding her shoulders loosened, and she was suddenly surrounded by a feeling of weightlessness and fell downwards.
Anna reacted and quickly used the wind gathering technique, but when she landed firmly on the ground, she was dumbfounded.
She landed on the top of a small flat cliff, bare, surrounded by three monsters, six in total, and eighteen heads staring at her eagerly.
At this moment, Anna desperately hoped that demons would fall from the sky. Being surrounded by so many monsters was really not a good experience.
Then she saw the two monsters in front of her spread out to both sides, revealing a three-headed monster that seemed more majestic.
The three-headed monster that seemed to be the leader walked up to Anna, surrounded her with its three heads, and stared at her condescendingly.
Anna stared at the head directly in front of her, not daring to make any big moves, but secretly prepared to fight to the death. As long as she can survive before the devil comes, she wins!
This monster looked at Anna for a while, then suddenly jumped back two steps, instantly opening a distance of five meters. Its sudden reaction startled the other monsters, and they also imitated it and jumped back collectively.
There is not much space on the flat ground on the top of the cliff, so the three monsters that followed the trend and jumped back suddenly stepped on the air, fell down with a whoop, and quickly flapped their wings to fly again. What was even worse was that the three-headed monster that was blocking the mountain wall behind him just bumped into it, making a louder roar.
Anna listened to these heart-stopping howls, but she didn't dare to act rashly.
Was the leading monster scared by her and running away just now
Could it be that because she has been haunted by the devil for too long, and her body is contaminated with the devil's aura that ordinary people can't smell but the monster can feel, it is afraid
Speaking of which, last time Balan also easily let this kind of monster cooperate with him to act out a hero saving a beauty.
Thinking of this, Anna felt more confident.
She began to guess that this kind of monster should be able to communicate with people to a certain extent. Otherwise, Balan couldn't let their kind catch her and fly her up without scratching her last time. Look, this time, there was no Someone arranged it, and her shoulders suffered.
At this moment, Anna didn't dare to treat herself. She reluctantly stared at the leading three-headed monster. She didn't know what it was thinking. It had three heads and six eyes staring straight at her, which was quite scary.
"I advise you to let me go." Not knowing when the demon would arrive, Anna tried to communicate with the monster, "You don't know, more than a month ago, one of your kind tried to hurt me, but was beaten by the demon. died!"
The three-headed monster suddenly roared twice, looking a little agitated. Anna was so frightened that she quickly took a small step back.
If she could understand the language between the three-headed magic eagles, she would know that what the three-headed magic eagles were saying was: That's me, you fool! I'm not dead yet!
Anna could not recognize the difference between the three-headed magic eagles, but this three-headed magic eagle, whose IQ was comparable to that of a six-year-old human child, remembered Anna, the human woman who had been with the demon who had given it nightmares.
Anna saw that the three monsters had no intention of continuing to attack her, so she continued: "Have you heard of the Grand Duke of the Abyss? It's awesome! I don't think you have to eat my meat. You can let me go now. Otherwise, when he comes after you, you will be in trouble!"
The three-headed magic eagle howled again and suddenly looked to the side and ahead.
Rotgar, who was chasing after him, skillfully manipulated the wind element and gently landed on the platform.
He looked directly at Anna, with a somewhat surprised expression.
He chased them with all his strength, but fell too far behind. Unexpectedly, as soon as he got closer, he heard Anna's words. She said that the Archduke of the Abyss was very powerful, but they would be in trouble when he caught up with them.
—She actually knew? !
This news shocked Rotgar to the point of being unable to recover. How could Anna know his true identity
"Raymond!" Anna followed the sight of the three-headed magic eagle and saw the devil. Seeing that he was still Raymond's body, she couldn't help but feel a little nervous. Raymond was at the level of a three-star mage at most, so there were so many three-headed magic beasts. Well, can the devil still be defeated with this body
Hearing Anna's voice, Rotgar frowned and looked at her.
It's impossible. No one can see through his "possession" ability. How could Anna know that Raymond is hiding in his body
She is indeed very talented, but no matter how talented she is, there is a limit. If he doesn't take the initiative to expose him, even Balan can't see his true identity, how could Anna know!
Rotgar didn't believe Anna knew who he was, but he heard what she just said clearly. What on earth was going on
Anna saw the demon looking at her without any reaction at all. She didn't know what he wanted to do, so she couldn't help but feel a little anxious. Looking at the three monsters around her, they seemed to be in a daze and did not attack the demon.
So, why didn't he take the opportunity and run away with her
Just when Anna was wondering whether she should run first, the leading three-headed magic eagle moved.
I saw it roaring, and upon hearing its cry, the other three magic eagles raised their wings and flew into the air.
The leading three-headed magic eagle flew up half a step behind and barked twice at Anna.
From now on you idiot, stay away from me!
It still remembered the fear of being dominated by that demon, and it did not dare to attack Anna. In addition, although the new human did not look very strong, it had an inexplicable fear, so it decided to quickly lead its men first run.
Although the devil didn't seem to be here before, it was still a little scared! Get away quickly!
The three-headed magic eagle roared upwards, flapped its huge wings, and soared away.
Its minions roared in response and followed it away.
Anna looked at this scene with some confusion.
what's the situation
Did the arrival of the devil scare away these monsters? Or did what she just said scare them away
Although she didn't think she was going to die, she was always nervous. At this moment when the crisis came into contact, the severe pain in her shoulders suddenly became clear. Anna's face was pale, and she was sweating. She sat down on the ground and pressed her palms against her. Injured left shoulder.
The blood was not flowing much anymore, but looking through the damaged clothes, one could see that the wound was quite large.
She was a little regretful that her mage robe, which contained only one gold coin, was just gone.
Rotgar slowly walked over and squatted down in front of Anna with a somewhat inquiring expression: "Anna, what do you mean by what you said to these three-headed magic eagles?"
Anna was stunned for a moment, recalling what she had said to these monsters before the devil came, and couldn't help but wonder why his expression was so strange.
It turned out that he thought that the Duke of the Abyss she was talking about was him. After all, she said "wait for him to catch up". Although her words were actually a bluff to deceive those three-headed magic eagles, they were indeed true.
Anna saw that the devil was suspicious, but she was not nervous. After all, she had a perfect excuse.
She leaned over mysteriously and whispered: "I'm telling you a secret, but you can't tell it."
Rotgar waited for Anna's explanation and nodded silently.
Anna then said: "Actually, I met a demon before I came to Black Cloud City! It's like a very handsome demonic creature with horns on its head."
Rotgar was stunned and suddenly remembered that before entering Black Cloud City, Balan did appear in front of Anna and performed a play.
He suddenly understood that what Anna just said to the three-headed magic eagle was a bluff, just to scare away those three-headed magic eagle.
For Rotgar, this explanation was reasonable and acceptable, and the self-doubt he had at that moment suddenly disappeared.
That's how it should be. No matter how amazing her talent is, Anna is just an ordinary human being and there is no way she can see through him.
After the doubts that may have shocked his outlook were solved, Rotgar finally had the intention to pay attention to other things.
Anna said Balaam was very handsome.
He remembered that she had never praised several human men as handsome, but now she actually called an alien demon handsome? Wasn't she afraid and wary of Balaam at that time? I still think Balaam is very handsome!
Rotgar said coldly, and asked her with a stern face: "How is your injury?"
"It's nothing serious. I'll be fine after a while." Anna replied casually, then stared at him and said, "Why didn't you ask me what happened next?"
Of course she knew that the devil must know what happened next, but since she "didn't know" that he was a devil, her reaction must be reasonable.
Seeing Anna's interest in talking about Balaam, Rotgar's expression turned even darker. He replied coldly: "Not interested."
After saying that, he bent down and picked up Anna, and jumped off the top of the cliff.
Anna: "...!"
She pressed one hand on the wound, and after feeling the weightlessness for a moment, she was so frightened that she quickly grabbed the devil's collar with her other hand.
The falling momentum quickly stopped. Rotgar was very skilled in controlling the wind element. He led Anna to jump on the canopy of the tree and flew away outside the line of life and death.
Anna secretly raised her eyes to look at the devil. His jaw lines were tense, and he looked unhappy.
However, he should not continue to suspect that she knew his true identity, although in fact she did not have time to explain clearly.
She felt that he should have figured it out on his own, so she had better not rush to explain. After all, she "didn't know" what he had "misunderstood", so it would be a bit too deliberate to force another explanation.
So Anna ignored the demon and concentrated on using the Holy Healing Technique to treat the wound on her shoulder. Because the wound was quite large, the itching and sharp pain during the healing process forced Anna to cry physiologically.
Anna has hardly suffered any injuries since time travel, and this time should be considered the most serious one. She had always had smooth sailing before the time travel, so the injury she suffered this time made her realize how pain-free she was after the tension was relieved.
It really hurts like hell...
It hurt when it wasn't being treated, and it hurt when it was being treated... No wonder the devil was holding on to her hand while she was being treated, and she wanted to hold on to something.
Anna broke into a cold sweat and finally stopped the treatment.
It hurt so much that she couldn't concentrate. And because she had been treated for a short time, she guessed that the wound that was healing and growing flesh must be very indescribable, and she didn't even dare to take a look at it.
Anna originally thought that the devil didn't pay much attention to her, but as soon as she stopped the treatment, he slowed down and looked down: "Why is it not cured?"
When Rotgar lowered his head, he saw Anna's too pale face, cold sweat on her head, lips red from being bitten by teeth, and wet red eyes.
He was stunned, stopped completely and fell to the ground, frowning: "Poisoned?"
After saying that, he felt something was wrong. The three-headed magic eagle did not contain poison.
Anna shook her head, and her voice sounded a little crying: "I just feel too much pain..."
She thinks that surgery without anesthesia is nothing more than that, right? The Holy Healing Technique is not omnipotent... It seems that to treat such serious wounds, it still needs to be used in conjunction with the magic potion "Intoxication", which can be used as an anesthetic.
"Is this called pain?"
Rotgar was not in a good mood now, and his words were not pleasant. He put Anna down on the spot, let her lean on the tree trunk, and pulled away her hand that was weakly pressing the wound. Anna resisted subconsciously, and was After giving him a cold look, he relaxed his strength obediently. The golden light flickered on his fingertips, and the cloth near her wound was torn open by the golden light, revealing the hideous healing wound underneath.
He frowned and suddenly regretted letting those three-headed magic eagles run away just now.
He hadn't seen Anna's wound before and thought it was just a small injury, but he didn't expect the wound to be so big and deep.
Seeing that the devil's hand seemed to want to touch her wound, Anna quickly blocked it: "It hurts, don't touch it."
Rotgar felt a surge of anger in his heart. He didn't know who he was angry at, and stared at Anna coldly: "If you don't let me touch it, who do you want to touch it?"
Anna: “…”
She was in so much pain, and he deliberately misunderstood her!
"I'll touch it myself!" Anna replied angrily.
It doesn't matter, the pain is temporary, as long as she endures it, it will pass, and the pain will be gone...
She ignored the demon and put her right hand on the wound on her left shoulder. Just as she was about to cast the Holy Healing Technique, her wrist was grabbed by the demon.
Anna raised her eyes and stared at the devil with a fierce expression: "What are you doing!"
Rotgar frowned: "You don't feel any pain anymore?"
Ana followed his example and sneered: "Is this called pain?"
Rotgar snorted coldly, grabbed Anna's wrist and pulled her right hand away, and his own hand lay weakly near the wound.
The black dark elements condensed in his palm and penetrated into Anna's wound. After a while, Anna felt the pain in the wound lessen.
Anna suddenly felt strange: "What kind of spell is this?"
She could tell that this was a dark element spell, but unfortunately she didn't have an affinity for the dark element, so she couldn't cast it even if she knew it.
"You can't use it." Rotgar said coldly.
Although this was true, Anna was still very angry when the devil said this.
Rotgar glanced at her: "What are you waiting for? Holy Healing Technique."
Although she was very angry, Anna would not be in trouble with her body and immediately used the Holy Healing Technique.
In her feeling, the light element controlled by the Holy Healing Technique jumped around her wound, and it was in harmony with the dark element controlled by the devil. Under the effect of the Holy Healing Technique's accelerated healing, her wound's The flesh gradually grew, and the pain was only about one-tenth of what it was before, which was completely bearable for her.
This process lasted nearly twenty minutes.
During this period, some unsighted monsters tried to "hunt" over, but Rotgar struck him without looking back. After five or six corpses of monsters were piled around the two of them, no monsters dared to come over anymore.
Rotgar also retracted his hand when he saw Anna stop the healing process. Under the torn blood-stained cloth, the hideous wound was gone. The snow-white new skin seemed to be broken by a blow, and further down it was slightly broken. The curvature of the bulge.
Rotgar's gaze stayed there for a second. When he realized what it was, he immediately looked away, stood up, took off his mage robe and threw it on Anna.
Anna was caught off guard by the mage robe. She pulled off the warm mage robe, looked at the location of her wound, and immediately understood what the devil meant.
She thought with some malice in her heart, he had reacted to her voice before, but this time he could see half of her breasts, would he have the same reaction
If he reacts to a human woman one after another, just ask him if he is angry!
Thinking that the devil might be sulking, Anna was not angry at all, and even felt a little gloating. She obediently put on the large mage robe, covering herself tightly.
There is actually some lingering pain at the location of the wound, but it's fine if you don't pay attention.
Using the Holy Healing Technique to treat such a serious wound requires a lot of mental energy. Anna is now in a state of almost exhausted mental energy. She lifted up the too-long mage robe to avoid tripping, walked to the devil, and thanked her sincerely. : "Thank you for coming to my rescue, Raymond."
Rotgar was feeling a little impetuous at the moment and said with a sarcastic smile: "Then are you going to use your body to repay me?"
Anna was stunned and understood that he meant that she should agree to his proposal. She smiled and said, "This can't be done for now, right?"
"Hypocritical." Rotgar sneered unsurprisingly.
Anna just smiled sheepishly. Just be hypocritical...it's better than losing your life and soul.
Rotgar didn't know why he was upset at the moment. Seeing Anna's face still pale and standing there precariously, he became more and more irritable.
"Can I still use magic?" Rotgar asked impatiently.
Anna felt it and shook her head: "The mental power is almost exhausted."
She had been fighting a giant centipede before, and when she was captured by the three-headed magic eagle, she kept trying to hit it with various spells. Coupled with the long-term holy healing spell just now, there was really not a drop left.
Rotgar didn't say anything. He put his arms around Anna's waist, bent down and put his hands under her knees, and picked her up easily.
"Why is it lighter than slime?" Rotgar said casually and reminded, "Hold on."
Then he controlled the wind element again and ran away from the line of life and death.
Anna: “…”
Comparing her to slime, what's wrong with him!
Anna grasped the clothes on the demon's chest tightly, suddenly thought of something, and said quickly: "Wait a minute, are there any of those monster corpses that I need from the mission?" The poor devil is so real.
Rotgar, who slowed down because of Anna's "Wait a minute": "...No!"
Anna wasn't very familiar with the monsters and their names, and she didn't remember all the mission content. When the demon gritted his teeth and said no, she couldn't tell the truth from the lie, so she had to take it as true.
While running, Rotgar suddenly remembered something, slowed down slightly, and said maliciously: "Leon didn't come to save you."
The devil's hand was very steady, and Anna felt quite comfortable in his arms. In addition, she was actually a little sleepy due to the fatigue just now. When she heard his words, she said vaguely: "Oh... he must be protecting Nata." Li."
Rather than letting Leon and the devil come to save her together, she would rather Leon protect Natalie. The devil can save her alone, and Natalie cannot be left in a dangerous life-or-death line.
Then she fell asleep.
Hearing this answer, Rotgar was very unhappy.
It's Natalie again!
Rotgar met Leon not long after he was about to die. Leon took some time to escort Natalie to the carriage, and he rushed over immediately after sending Natalie there.
Seeing Anna who was motionless and pale in Rotgar's arms, Leon's throat tightened. He just reached out to touch Anna, but was dodged by Rotgar.
"Anna is fine." Rotgar sneered, his eyes full of malice, "You were not here when I rescued her. There is no need for you to be there when she wakes up."
Seeing Leon's face sinking, Rotgart immediately felt much relieved, and smiled again: "You should really see the look in Anna's eyes when she saw me going to save her." He licked his lips, as if after recollection, "You'll never know how sweet her lips are."
Leon looked at Rotgar in silence, and only the coldness in his eyes told him that Leon had listened to everything.
Rotgar showed a winner's smile and walked away past Lyon.
