The Godsfall Chronicles

Chapter 54: Life and death help each other

Views:

The wilderness is full of heat waves, as if burning with raging flames. Such a harsh and cruel environment evaporates quickly the water in the human body. In order not to die of thirst and sunburn, the two could only temporarily stop their journey and hide in a crevice of a mound, waiting for the hottest time to pass.

The rabbit skin was spread out on a large hot stone to expose it to the sun.

Rabbit meat is cut into small pieces and roasted.

Although the desert rabbit meat is rich in fat, tender and delicious, it can be called a very rare and high-quality food in the wilderness. Yun Ying did not dare to eat more, on the one hand, there was no corresponding water supplement, and eating too much would only accelerate water consumption, on the other hand, he did not know when the next time he would find food. There are actually quite a few mutated creatures in the wilderness, but there are very few edible ones, so it is necessary to store some for emergencies.

"Walking aimlessly like this, we must be dead." Yun Ying looked at the vast desert, his eyes became a little dazed, not knowing where to put it in the future, "Let's go to God's Domain."

The revenge of the cunning fox and the mad dog will be avenged.

Now is not the time.

The black hand behind the scenes is too powerful, at least there are more than a thousand fierce raiders, and there are three particularly powerful leaders among them. Of course, this is still a known power. Exactly how many scavengers worked for him, how many of these scavengers are strong, and how strong the demon itself is, these are all unknown forces.

A badly wounded Blood Queen.

A still weak Yunying.

It is a miracle that the two are still alive.

If you can't find water, it's hard to say whether you can survive tonight. How can you talk about a counterattack from a desperate situation

There is no hope for the witcher.

But there is hope for returning to God's Domain

This is a vast wilderness of one or two thousand miles. The whole province is ready to go, and it also requires a lot of courage and luck. Among them, it is necessary to pass through a completely unknown no-man's land. No one knows what will be encountered in such a place.

If you are destined to die in the wilderness.

The Bloody Queen would rather choose to die in battle.

This is the only pride of being a demon hunter.

"Hey, I really don't understand." Yunying could feel the bloody queen's determination to see death as home: "What kind of grievances do you have with that demon? Why can't you live well in God's Domain and insist on biting others, he Where did I offend you?"

The Bloody Queen is very young, her mind, appearance, and potential are all impeccable. Why not live a good life, but why don't she have a bright future, and insist on running to the wilderness alone at the risk of danger

Yunying asked casually.

Because of the Bloody Queen's haughty character, she probably disdains to explain it to someone like him who has no faith or honor. Unexpectedly, just when Yunying was thinking this way, a voice that suppressed sadness and pain at the same time came from a chilly atmosphere.

"He killed my father."

The Bloody Queen was very weak, but her body was trembling slightly. This female warrior, who was as strong as steel without frowning even with swords and swords, had slightly reddened eyes at this moment, revealing an unforgettable hatred in her eyes.

The hatred of killing one's father is irreconcilable!

The Bloody Queen must bear the stigma on her father, and she must avenge her father with her own hands. With this in mind, she secretly left God's Domain at the age of sixteen and spent a year searching in the wilderness.

The Bloody Queen is indeed an excellent demon hunter, but after all, she is too young, she is too confident and proud, and she is blinded by hatred, so she is completely unaware of what kind of opponent she is facing.

Yunying doesn't understand the queen.

Can't blame him, Yunying has no concept of parents, he sighed long, everyone has their own story, everyone has their own position, everyone has their own motives, even if he can't understand, and What qualifications do you have to accuse others of doing right or wrong

The two chatted without saying a word.

Yunying didn't close his eyes for two days and two nights, and his nerves were always highly tense. He fought from the wilderness to the camp, and from the camp to the wilderness. .

I just feel that the double eyelids are as heavy as a thousand catties.

Finally it was unbearable to close it.

I don't know how long it has been.

Yunying woke up in a burst of burning thirst, opened his eyes suddenly, held the exorcism stick, and glanced left and right, the sky was groggy, it was already dusk, he did not expect to sleep for so long.

Although the brain is clearer, but the throat is like smoke.

Yunying knew that his body was severely dehydrated, and it would be very dangerous to continue like this.

The queen leaned halfway not far away, her black hair drooping down, her eyes closed tightly as if she was asleep, but her face was flushed abnormally, and every breath seemed to be difficult. Seeing this situation, Yunying immediately went up and touched his forehead with his hand, it was hot to the palm.

broken!

Yunying didn't expect that he had been injured dozens of times and there was nothing wrong with it. The Queen's wounds showed signs of infection, which may be caused by the poisonous arrow that was hit by the poisonous arrow on it.

"Hey, wake up!"

"You can't die!"

Yunying was very anxious, the two of them were grasshoppers on the same rope, those raiders must have regarded Yunying as a witcher, so even if the Bloody Queen died here, they would never let Yunying go.

If the bloody queen with such a strong combat power is by her side, Yunying still has a chance to escape. If the bloody queen dies here, how will Yunying, a half-baked man, break out of the encirclement

The Bloody Queen's chapped lips moved slightly, and she murmured unconsciously in pain: "Water..."

water

I'm dying of thirst too!

Where to find water now!

Yunying scratched her hair anxiously, the rabbit blood was gone long ago, what should I do

Suddenly, he calmed down, pulled out the dagger stuck in the queen's boot, and lightly cut a gash on his wrist, blood gushed out immediately.

It can only be this way!

The Bloody Queen didn't realize it at all, she sucked it up instinctively like a baby, a faint fishy smell filled her mouth, the Queen's consciousness was suddenly stimulated, she opened her eyes and looked at him.

Yunying forced an ugly smile: "You're finally awake."

The Bloody Queen was still very weak, her eyes flickered a few times, this wild man actually used his blood to save me? If this were the case before, the queen would have to be furious. She is a noble demon hunter, how could she continue her life with the blood of the sinful wilderness!

Now I don't know if it's because I'm too weak or because of other deeper reasons, but I can't feel angry.

"We must go."

"We must find water tonight, or we will die."

Yunying made a simple backpack out of rabbit skin, and he put all the remaining rabbit meat in it, and dug a deep hole in the ground, and buried all the traces left here with sand.

The Bloody Queen has a high fever, and her mental state is unstable. Now her combat power has been greatly reduced, and it is difficult to activate her artifacts. She even has problems walking. She has never been so weak since she grew up.

"You are walking too slowly like this." Yunying handed the rabbit skin package to the Bloody Queen: "You take this, I will carry you away!"

The Blood Queen is no hypocrite.

Now the situation does not allow for a choice.

Yunying's slightly thin body carried the Queen on her back, and walked slowly in the desert at dusk, leaving a long footprint in the groggy twilight.

The setting sun came over, and the queen's long hair was covered with a layer of golden red. She felt that she might not have much time, but her heart was peaceful.

did not think of.

In the end, the person who will support him in life and death will turn out to be a wilderness boy who was completely looked down upon.

The sky is getting late, stars are emerging, the hot desert is cooling down sharply, and Yunying is panting violently like an old cow. An astonishing amount of perseverance persisted until now, and finally became dizzy and unsustainable. Not to mention finding a water source, not a single mutant beast could be found.

"Whoosh!"

This piercing scream came over.

A steel cold arrow passed through Yunying's face, and with a puff, it stuck under his feet, and the arrow feathers trembled. Yunying's expression changed. When he looked in the direction of the arrow, five figures were moving slowly. In front of him were two riding mutant monitor lizards. Three bowmen quickly followed behind. This arrow was one of them. Personally issued.

Yunying's heart sank suddenly.

These five people just met each other first, and dozens of figures appeared densely behind a sand dune not far away, each wearing armor and holding a weapon. It was originally thought that the sandstorm would bury the traces and smells, and they would not be able to track them here so quickly. Now, is it really too optimistic

"do not move!"

Three archers keep their bows stringed.

Several wilderness cavalry quickly spread out, and they were copying up in a semi-surrounding manner.

Yunying put the Bloody Queen down and pulled out a steel pipe from his hand. This time, he couldn't escape no matter what. Since he killed so many people, he would bring another person to back him up. Although the troops surrounded the two, they did not rush to attack.

Two people stepped out from the middle.

One is a stout and tall old man with a gray beard and a very mighty look. He is also a typical wilderness costume, but the workmanship of the steel armor looks good. Although he is very old, he looks like an old man. The lion still exudes an aura of calmness and prestige.

The other is a strong man who doesn't look too old. Most of his face was burnt beyond recognition by acid or flames. His hair is very thin. From his neck to his chest, there are a large number of grape-like mutated tissues distributed. A mildly mutated mutant.

There are so few mildly and severely mutated guys in this team, but Yunying found that most of the humans are normal, this team should not be the team of sweepers.

Who would it be if it wasn't a raider

Yun Ying shouted angrily: "Who are you!"

"It doesn't matter who we are!" The strong man showed a hideous and ugly smile, he raised his hand and gave an order to his subordinates, "Go, kill me!"

These people who dare to walk through the wilderness at night are definitely not ordinary diggers. Whether it is Yun Ying or the Queen, they really can't kill them anymore!
