The wound on Selin's shoulder was a bit scary. All the flesh and blood in the wound were turned out and almost shattered. In comparison, the damage caused by the giant bear was nothing to mention, at least on the surface.
What makes people even more uneasy is that the minced meat is not bright red. If you look carefully, you can see black threads covering the edges of the minced meat. Whenever the minced meat wants to grow, those threads will corrode the new ones. flesh.
"Tsk, tsk," Dean smiled with some gloating, "A talentless... Paladin master cannot dispel such a simple curse."
"He will bleed to death... You must have something to do, right?" I was a little helpless and wiped the blood that came out of the trainee knight. I was extremely anxious. To be honest, this was not the first time I smelled a strong smell. The smell of blood was the first time I had witnessed such...a wound that irritated my eyeballs.
"I do have some herbs." Dean took out a golden ginseng from his personal bag. The thing seemed to have been dried, and Dean's leather-gloved hand casually squeezed it into powder. Then, he tore off a relatively clean bandage from Selin's shoulder and wrapped it in the powder. After doing that, he took out a small pot of strong liquor from his personal luggage like a magic trick. After a moment of hesitation, he poured the whole liquor on the bandage, and then, he fiercely took out the herbal powder wrapped in it. The bandage was pressed on Selin's wound!
"Uh-huh." The young knight almost bounced off the cold ground. If Dean hadn't held him down hard, he would have jumped onto the rock wall, even if he wasn't conscious at all!
"Oh!" I felt my teeth get sore and trembled with empathy. It seemed that the thief was not only unstable, but also ruthless! "Is there any other way, Mr. Dean? I've heard... heard about that kind of sacred magic..."
"I'm only good at killing, not magic." Dean smiled and released his hand that was holding Selin tightly. The knight trembled slightly and became quiet.
"But why did his wound look like that?" I asked, "What kind of person can leave such a terrible wound?!"
"Oh, you are very interested? Miss?" Dean asked with a half-smile, and those eyes staring at me made me suddenly feel anxious.
"...Uh...to be honest, I'm actually a little interested in this."
"Come on, let me tell you."
"You?" I was doubtful, but this time, I looked away. I clearly remembered Dean's threat. If you question me again, you will immediately question your own life and death.
Dean was seen squatting next to Selin again, reaching out and ruthlessly tearing off the bandage that had just been covering his wound. The knight trembled again, his hard face twisted into a ball of pain.
oh……
I couldn't help but frown.
"Do you see this wound?" Dean asked, pointing to the wound.
"It couldn't be clearer, sir."
"It's not deep, but it's a hit."
I squatted next to Dean and looked at the wound carefully. Indeed, the wound went straight in and out without any sloppiness. "Then, the assassin must have used a dagger."
"Very good, let's take a look at his outward flesh and blood. Miss, tell me, how can a dagger be used to pull out the flesh and blood from the wound?"
"Uh...is this...a barb? The kind of thing that can catch flesh and blood?"
"Yeah, yes, that's right." Dean touched his chin and looked at me with a tingling interest, "Aren't you afraid of these things?"
"Uh... to be honest, a little bit."
"Ha, it's just a dagger, what's there to be afraid of?" As he spoke, he stretched out his index finger and tapped Selin's shoulder. Selin, who was unconscious from the pain, shivered, "Look at these pieces of meat, young lady, this is That's what you should be afraid of. How do you think this is done? How do you break the flesh in the wound into pieces in one blow?"
"Uh..." I frowned. To be honest, those minced meats made me feel disgusting, "...a lot of barbs?"
"Of course not. Because, after the barbed dagger stabbed into the wound, it was like this." He held the dagger in vain, pretending to stab Serin's shoulder, then turned his hand, and then pointed towards the other side. Turning in one direction, "The more times, the more the meat will be broken into pieces." For a moment, I seemed to hear the cry of flesh and blood.
"How can you do this? How can you do this in one blow?"
"Aha! It depends on whose blow it is!"
"...Did you do it?"
"Ah! That's right, isn't it perfect?" He spread the dagger in his hand triumphantly, "Look at this, it is polished with the teeth of the Faceless Men. It is not only sharp, but also capable of destroying souls."
It was indeed a sharp weapon, about seventeen or eighteen centimeters long. The two ends of the dagger were smooth Yunshu Yunjuan, and the tip of the cloud was as sharp as the edge of the dagger. There are two blood grooves on the dagger body, and there are dark unknown objects inside. When I thought about using this dagger to chew on a rabbit leg, I felt my stomach twitch.
"…You are powerful, Mr. Dean."
"uh-huh."
"Can you do one thing for me?"
"No matter what you do, you have to wait until the wind and snow outside stop. Just listen."
There was silence in the cave, with only the cold wind blowing outside the cave. It must be thousands of miles of ice and thousands of miles of snow outside. For a moment, I suddenly felt that this small bonfire in the cave was so warm and cozy.
However, at that moment, I noticed that Dean's expression suddenly changed. He slowly lowered his back, and then merged into the air of the cave like a phantom.
I was shocked, "Mr. Dean?"
"Shhh"
I couldn't help but get nervous, because anything that could hide such a powerful Dean must be more powerful and dangerous than Dean.
Woo
Unexpectedly, a long horn sound came from behind the wind and snow. It was not the horn of the hunters. It was duller and more shocking.
Yes, yes, yes
The faint sound of horse hooves approached in the cold wind, unhurriedly.
Is it the father?
My first thought was Ser Joffrey, but then, I immediately denied it.
In such a snowy day, my father would definitely not go to the mountains alone to look for me. There would definitely be followers around him, and they would definitely call my name instead of approaching me in such a leisurely manner.
who is it? !
Who would walk alone in the mountains on such a snowy day? !
I slowly stood up from the ground and looked across the crackling bonfire at the line of rock cracks. Outside the rock cracks, there was a frozen lake covered with heavy snow.
Yes, yes, yes
The sound of horse hooves was getting closer and closer, and could be clearly heard through the wind and snow.
Subconsciously, I lifted up Selin's long sword that was stuck on the ground. The sharp blade reflected my frown, pale face, and slightly trembling lips.
Oh my god, I was so scared that I almost fainted! what happened? !
Yes, yes, yes
A dark figure walked past the rock crevice. He was wearing a heavy cloak and riding a tall horse. The dark saddle completely covered the horse, only revealing the horse's hoofs that were treading heavily on the ground. Those hoofs were actually burning. With pale flames!
For a moment, I just felt my heart was in my throat!
Oh my God! what is that? !
What happened to the Alterac Mountains? How could there be so many monsters she had never heard of? !
First, it was a giant bear that was supposed to be dead, and now it’s a horse that looks like it came from hell? !
So, what would the owner of that horse be like? !
I can't even think about it!
Fortunately, fortunately, the monster carried its owner past the crevice and did not stop.
I couldn't help but let out a long sigh, and my palms were covered with cold sweat. But at that moment, just when I was about to kneel on the ground, the sound of the horse's hooves stopped. I held my breath, as if After a moment of deathly silence of ten thousand years, I heard the sound of horse hooves coming back again. This time, the sound stopped outside the rock crevice!
I raised my head mechanically, and at that moment, the rider on the horse was facing her, with the blue flames burning in his eye sockets staring straight at her face!
call
He blew out a mouthful of ice-blue freezing air. The freezing air swept across the bonfire and made me open my mouth silently. I felt cold to the bone all over my body!
Kata
The rider jumped off the horse, and at this moment, he stood completely in the light of the bonfire.
Oh my God, he is just like that giant bear, a skeleton with only a few pieces of carrion left! Scattered pieces of armor were draped on his chest, completely unable to cover up the blazing flames in his chest and ribs!
I wanted to scream, but my throat seemed to be blocked and no sound could come out.
stuck
The skeleton walked through the snow into the crevice, and the cold breath all over his body suddenly caused the temperature of the entire cave to drop several degrees!
I couldn't move at all, my back was stiff, my hands and feet couldn't be used, and all I could see was the knight's eye sockets burning with blue flames!
"...Dee...Dean..." I squeezed out the name through my teeth with difficulty.
However, the powerful thief was nowhere to be found in the cave.
"Huh!" Another mouthful of ice-blue freezing air spurted out from the knight's throat. This time, a thin layer of ice formed on the rock wall next to him.
Zi La La
I watched helplessly as the ice spread to my feet, then silently climbed up my trembling calves, and onto my extremely sore waist.
Kata
The skeleton slowly hung the horn on his waist, and then took off the heavy two-handed sword on his back. The sword, like him, shone with a pale and cold light.
I almost wanted to cry. I tried hard to lift the weapon in my hand, but at that moment I felt that the long sword was extremely heavy and I couldn't lift it at all!
"...Dee...Dean!" I finally screamed!
For a moment, my eyes blurred. When I looked over again, I saw a gray figure with several double shadows behind the skeleton. In his hand was a sharp and short dagger. The dagger It quickly pulled out a trail in the air!
boom
Almost at the same moment he swung the dagger, it penetrated the knight's cloak and collided with the flames in his chest, stimulating a ray of light like the sun. The dagger contained such huge energy that it suddenly The dagger bounced back!
"What the hell!" Dean's magnetic voice sounded, filled with all kinds of incredulity. He tried to withdraw the weapon immediately and retreat quickly, but it was too late. A group of deep purple light emerged from the soul fire of the skeleton. Even I felt the coldness and malice of that purple light. The purple light was like a living poisonous snake, burning along Dean's dagger and onto his hands, causing his movements to suddenly stop.
In a flash of lightning, the knight had already grasped the hilt of the long sword with both hands, turned around with one leg as the center of the circle, and swept the long sword with sparks towards the shadow behind him!
"Watch out!" I exclaimed, but the sound couldn't make Dean even half as fast!
Dean was like a ripple in water, quickly disappearing into the air, but the little marks on the ground clearly showed that he was injured.
call
The skeleton exhaled the icy cold air again, dragging the heavy weapon and turning to me again.
I completely lost my mobility, but my head was still alive. I noticed keenly that his eyes did not seem to be on me. He seemed to be looking at Selin behind me. I don’t know if it was an illusion. I saw There was a look of satisfaction in his eyes.
Kata
He took a step closer to me, but the corner of his eyes was still paying attention to the surroundings. It was obvious that he was wary of Dean who might appear at any time.
Move! Move!
I tried hard to raise the sword, but the huge fear completely took away the control of her body.
how so? How could this be? !
Kata
The skeleton walked to the side of the bonfire!
At that moment, I heard a low sound of metal friction suddenly coming from behind me. Then, a silver shadow rushed out from me like lightning and took away the frozen long sword in my hand.
Serling? !
I saw Selin holding the long sword with both hands and sweeping towards the skeleton knight from bottom to top. The knight also reacted in an instant. He raised the long sword high and slashed it down!
ping
The entire cave trembled with the collision of metal weapons.
Selin was originally injured. After the impact, he was directly pressed to the ground by the force of the skeleton. A large amount of blood spurted out from his shoulders, instantly staining the ground red.
The crossed swords were trembling, and they were pressed in front of Serin's pupils inch by inch.
"Drink." He tensed his muscles and roared through gritted teeth, while dazzling holy light burst out from his body.
The Skeleton Knight took a step back due to the holy light, but in the next second, he raised his two-handed sword again and struck Selin's sword.
Ping——
Selin grunted, and another spurt of blood spurted out from his shoulder.
I covered my mouth, and then I realized that my arms could actually move. I took another step, and the control of my legs seemed to be back!
what happened? !
Of course, now was not the time to wonder what was going on, I had to do something! Even if it’s just a drop in the bucket!
I quickly glanced around, jumped to the fire in three steps, and then grabbed a burning piece of wood. The wood was so hot that I shouted loudly and turned on the flames. The wood was thrown fiercely at the skeleton, and the hot fire made him take a few steps back involuntarily.
Losing his strength, Selin immediately used his trembling hands to support the ground, so as not to fall face down.
"Mr. Selling!" I immediately threw away the weapon and supported him hard, "Are you okay?"
He was weakly leaning on my shoulder. He was breathing heavily, his whole body was shaking, his forehead was covered with cold sweat, and his lips were frighteningly white.
Hearing my voice, he turned his head and smiled apologetically at her, "Huh, I'm sorry, I scared you..."
"I heard that riders can use magic to heal their wounds, what about yours?"
Selin took a shaky breath, "...I'm sorry, I...I can't do it yet..."
"Tsk, rookie..." Dean's mocking voice came from the void.
At this moment, a dagger stretched out from the void. This time, the dagger was pressed against the thin cervical spine of the skeleton that was about to move forward. Then, Dean's elusive figure once again stuck to the knight's back.
"You're careless, lackey of the Black Orcs, or should I call you... Death Knight?" Dean whispered in his ear, and even touched the knight's pale facial bones through his gloves, and then, Dean's arm, which was filled with tremendous power, tightened, and the knight's head was cut off with a snap, and flew into the air! After the blow, the thief retreated again. This time, he knelt on the ground with one knee, his beautiful eyebrows knitted together, and blood flowed from the fingers of his waist and abdomen, and in the blink of an eye, it accumulated at his feet. A small puddle of blood appeared.
boom
Only then did the knight's heavy skull fall to the ground, and rolled all the way to the deepest part of the cave. At that moment, the blue flames in his eye sockets were still burning, and his mandible was still opening and closing as if Cursing something.
The knight who had lost his head took several steps back before barely regaining his balance. However, it was obvious that his fatal injury was not his head. Even without his head, he did not fall!
The horse with flaming iron hooves seemed to be summoned and trotted to the knight's side. The knight touched the saddle and climbed back on the horse! By the time Dean gritted his teeth and rushed towards him like gray mist, the horse had already raised its front hooves, neighed, rushed into the wind and snow in the distance, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
