Loida was caught off guard and was thrown off her horse. She jumped up, but the little girl behind her remained silent. The horse ran away.
Glenn knew that these soldiers had received strict training and were highly disciplined. Even if they witness the arrival of death, they will not be so devastated that they run wildly. What's more, facing the resistance of only three people, the odds of winning are still very high.
It's not that they gave up because of difficulties, nor were they scared away by themselves.
Their horses also neighed and tried to break free from their reins. If he hadn't been tied to the big rock, he might have run away long ago. Glenn jumped on a big rock and looked around alertly, but found nothing. But he understood that something extremely terrible must have happened, but it was just not known yet.
At this time, he felt the ground shaking and smelled a fishy smell in his nose, which was disgusting. He shouted: "Trinville, be careful.
The ground shook more violently, and a huge earth bag was already raised under the feet. Trinville lost his balance and fell to the ground. He rolled over and climbed up, staring at the slowly rising ground.
"Grain, what the hell is this?" he yelled.
Glenn also felt panic in his heart. Although he had never seen the scene before him, it was definitely what he was most worried about.
He held the sword tightly with both hands and stared at the trembling earth in front of him. He shouted, "I don't know either. But whatever it is, it won't like our visit. Watch out! It's out!"
"Oh my God!" Trinville couldn't help shouting when he saw the huge monster emerging from the mound, "This guy is really ugly."
It was a giant bug monster. It burst out from under Loida's feet, breaking the bonds of the earth. Loida lost her balance and fell to the ground. She immediately jumped up, covered in dust, holding a long sword in her hand, looking at the terrifying monster in front of her. Although her face couldn't be seen, it was certainly full of panic.
The monster has been sleeping underground for hundreds of years, and now, evil forces have reawakened it. It raised its head toward the sky and let out a chilling roar. Its huge body was covered with thick scales, its two large pincers opened and closed, its long twisted tail swayed, and its small eyes stared viciously. its prey.
They were still in shock for a moment, but the insect monster had already waved its huge pincers and pounced on the nearest Loida. As long as she turned around, she could escape the bug monster's attack. However, she was obviously concerned about the little girl on her back and was unwilling to leave her behind unprotected to the insect monster. She reluctantly jumped to the side, but was unable to avoid the insect monster's continuous attacks. The long sword he was holding hit the insect monster's pincers and flew away.
She gritted her teeth and put her hands on her chest, but she only let out a muffled groan before being knocked down hard again, unable to move.
Grain held a long sword and rushed to Trinville and shouted: "Leave this to me, you go and protect them."
Trinville swung his spear and rushed forward, shouting: "No matter what it is, I won't be afraid. I can't take care of women and children. You go!"
This is not the time for arguments. Glenn ran to the female warrior and untied the little girl from her back. The little girl had tears in her eyes, but she did not cry out.
Althea also rushed over. She held the injured female warrior in her arms, and there was a large amount of blood on her chest.
Glenn picked her up. "Follow me," he shouted. Althea also hugged the little girl and ran to hide behind the big rock.
"Trinville, you have to be careful," Grein shouted. "Take care of them, take care of yourself!" This time he shouted to Althea. Before she could answer, he rushed over.
Trinville roared and thrust his spear at the beast. The monster swung its iron pincers, stirring up the dust and making it impossible to see. The spear collided with the monster's iron pincers, and Trinville was shocked so hard that his hands went numb. He refused to let go of his spear, and was thrown to the ground in a sway.
When Green saw Trinville being knocked down, he rushed to the front of the charging monster to block it from attacking Trinville again. He swung his sword with both hands and stabbed one of the monster's legs as hard as if it were hit by a boulder. He only heard a "ding-dong" sound, but could not penetrate. Although it failed to hurt the monster, it still disturbed its mind. It gave up on Trinville and swung its tail fiercely, but Grayen quickly dodged and dodged it, and he returned the sword and hit the insect monster again.
Trinville took advantage of the situation and got up. He did not dare to confront the monster head-on. He also learned from Grain's method, dodging and jumping, being careful not to let himself be touched by the monster's pincers and tail.
However, they still cannot inflict fatal damage to the monster. The insect monster was enraged and became more violent. It sprinted, struck with iron pincers, swept the ground with its giant tail, and flew sand and rocks. The two people were in danger for a while.
But even though he was in a tough battle, Trinville had long forgotten his fear and became more courageous as he fought.
He waved the spear in his hand, and the sharp edge contained all the strength of the giant. He struck and poked wildly, attracting all the anger of the insect monster.
"Grain, do it!" During the melee, he did not forget to tease the monster loudly, "Hey! How dare you look so ugly! It makes me never want to see other monsters again. This is all your fault It’s your fault! I’m going to kill you!”
Grein has been observing the monster's actions. It is huge but very agile, and its legs, feet and tail are covered with sharp short spines, making them afraid to approach easily.
He waved the sword in his hand and shouted: "This big guy looks like he is wearing armor. My sword cannot penetrate it."
The power of the insect monster's giant pincers and long tail is terrifying, and its speed is astonishing. It is as hard as iron stone. Wherever the insect monster collides and sweeps, yellow sand fills the sky and gravel splashes. The two people echoed back and forth, trying to distract the insect monster's attack. But even so, I still feel overwhelmed and unable to resist.
Trinville's spear stabbed the monster's abdomen fiercely, and he took a break to yell: "Grain! I like the joy of us fighting side by side, and I finally met a real monster. But, I really I regret it - I don't like fighting monsters at all. My spear is useless, this guy can block the sharp edge of my spear. Oh, this is the best fine iron in my shop. "
While he was avoiding the attack of the insect monster in embarrassment, he also did not forget to joke and shout loudly to encourage himself and his friends.
"Grain, someone has been injured. The methods you taught me to deal with monsters are of no use at all. If you can't come up with a good way, we will be dragged out of strength by it in a while. Then we will We can only let it slaughter us, and we will never reach the White Dragon City again."
Trinville is right. They must deal with this monster as quickly as possible. If one person is accidentally knocked down by it, the other person will be defeated immediately. Then, Althea, Loida and the little girl Yamina will all be spared and die under the giant claws of the insect monster. They were almost helpless, but they were still fighting the monster.
Trinville's spear pierced the monster's mouth, and it roared, biting the spear with its steel-sharp teeth. He only felt that the power of the insect monster was overwhelming, and it was absolutely impossible to take the spear back from the monster's mouth. But he was unwilling to lose his beloved spear like this. He became anxious and advanced instead of retreating. Using the power of the spear being lifted up, he jumped onto the monster's back. The monster's iron pincers couldn't reach him, so it swung it at him with its tail. He leaned over and dodged, drew out his long sword, and slashed hard at the monster's back.
However, the scales on this monster were thick and dense, and even if Trinville's sword slashed at it, it would not be able to do anything to it.
The bug monster was completely enraged, jumping and swaying, its spiked tail swinging wildly. Trinville clung to the armor of the insect monster tightly, half of his body almost hanging in the air.
Grayn jumped back and forth under the monster, avoiding the insect monster's trampling and collision, looking for opportunities to find the monster's weaknesses. The long sword was swift and powerful, stabbing into the monster's abdomen and ribs. But the bug monster was extremely hard, and the sharpness of the sword was useless under the pressure of the giant beast.
The monster suddenly stood up and roared to the sky. Trinville finally couldn't hold on any longer. He let go of his hands and was suddenly thrown off.
Glenn was shocked. He rushed over and tried to save Trinville who fell on the ground. When he was panicking, he was distracted, and amidst the roar, he was also swept by the insect monster's tail on his shoulder.
Glenn's vision went dark and he fell to the ground. He understood in his heart, but his hands and feet were too weak to move.
Trinville had also been knocked to the ground, and Althea's helpless figure floated past his mind.
Trinville gave up the free life he had pursued all his life and fled to the end of the world for him.
When Mr. Astral was dying, he knelt in front of his teacher and swore to protect Althea with his life.
However, he could only lie on the ground, with the worry for Trinville and Althea gathering in his chest, making him helpless and sad.
He jumped up suddenly, but his ears were so quiet that he couldn't even hear the wind. Looking carefully, Trinville was sitting on the ground, rubbing his head with his hands and mumbling.
He was relieved to see that Trinville didn't look injured. Loida was still lying there, and Yamina next to her had a look of astonishment on her face.
He ran over and helped Trinville, but he seemed to be a little dizzy and kept shaking his head, "Grain, where's that ugly monster? Did you beat it away?" Grain shook his head.
"Did you kill it?" Trinville seemed to be much more awake. He looked around, but he didn't see the insect monster's corpse, not even a single fragment. Glenn still shook his head.
Trinville was a little stupid: "Then what did you do, Glenn?"
"Don't ask me, I don't know what's going on just like you. Come on, we have to go see how serious the lady's injuries are."
He ran to Loida. Her eyes were closed, her face was pale, and blood was flowing from the wound on her chest.
"We have to find a safe place and treat this lady's wounds first. I don't want to rush out and take the risk of rescuing a body."
Only then did Glenn remember that he hadn't seen Althea yet, and he suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. His eyes were searching around, and it wasn't until he saw Althea appearing next to the big rock that he felt completely relieved.
Trinville leaned down and hugged Loida to his chest. Yamina held Roida's sleeves with her hands, her little lips pursed together and she was about to cry.
Glenn sighed, and he also leaned down and held her in his arms. He looked at Loida's pale face, put his hand to her lips, and felt a faint breath. He breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, the little girl who had been holding back tears finally cried out. She held onto Ren's sleeve with her little hand and asked in tears: "Sir, will sister Loida die?"
He wiped away her tears and said, "Stop crying, she will be fine."
"You promise?" The girl sobbed, but her eyes flashed with joy. It was obvious that all her hopes were pinned on his answer.
Glenn hesitated for a moment, he didn't want to disappoint the girl. So, he said, "Yeah, I promise she'll be fine."
The girl was about to burst into laughter, but when she saw Loida's blood-stained wound, she started crying again.
Althea had already come to their side, helping to take care of the injured female warrior and the crying little girl. He said: "She is seriously injured. We must find some medicine that can treat her, otherwise..." He glanced at the surrounding area with only yellow sand and rocks. "It is too unsafe here. We must leave here first. Then..." If one or two monsters come out, we will never be able to escape."
No one would have thought that such a heavy rain would fall in this wild desert that has been sparsely populated for thousands of years. The raindrops formed a curtain, blocking sight even from a very close distance. However, a sudden rainfall was regarded as a blessing from the gods by travelers whose lives were constantly threatened in the desert.
"Great," Trinville said, "even if the sky rains down from the sky, it will be Daddy Blueberry's wine, but it will not make me happier than it is raining down like this."
Not long ago, they had to waste precious water in the desert in order to clean Loida's wounds.
There is even more precious wine from Trinville. In order to save the injured Loida, the big man Vika spent all his money.
They live in a cave. It's not so much a cave, just a recess under a few boulders. The cave is small, but it allows them to shelter temporarily from the torrential rain.
It's been raining for a long time and it doesn't show any sign of stopping.
Glenn glanced at the female warrior lying on the ground. Her wounds had been cleansed with the last of Trinville's wine. Although he grinned in distress, our big giant was a kind-hearted person and would not give up the opportunity to save other people just to feel sorry for him and take a sip of wine.
He is definitely not that kind of person.
The little girl Yamina still had crystal tears hanging from the corners of her eyes. She lay in Althea's arms and had just fallen asleep.
Glenn came close to her and looked lovingly at her little face and peaceful sleeping face, thinking that the risks he took to save her were all worth it. Althea looked at Glenn's face and nodded with a smile.
I don’t know how long it took, and the rain gradually became lighter and lighter, but the female warrior Loida still fell into a deep sleep. This is not a reassuringly good sign.
Everyone gathered around her but there was nothing they could do. Glenn had seen the terrible wound, and he, who was always calm and composed, couldn't help but take a breath. Many times the wounds that cause fatal injuries to people are only small ones. And even Grayen thought it was a miracle that she was still struggling between life and death despite being so seriously injured.
He always has some medicines around him. These are efficacious medicines passed down from the ancient East, and he personally received the secret recipe from Mr. Astral. But since he returned to Apodoli and joined the Guards, he rarely had the opportunity to use it and kept it at home. This time I fled home in a hurry and had no time to take it and keep it with me.
Although he was very doubtful whether those wound medicines were really useful for such terrible wounds. But now, he could only watch with empty hands as the injured fell unconscious due to excessive blood loss.
Yamina woke up and knelt beside Loida.
She remembered that the person in front of her once told her that Sister Loida would be fine. When she saw him, she felt like one of her own relatives. She trusted him so much and relied on him.
She walked up to Glenn, fell into his generous arms, raised her little face, and shed tears: "Mr. Glenn, you said that Sister Loida will get better, didn't you? You promised it. .”
Glenn really couldn't look directly at this expectant face. He held her in his arms, but he did not dare to face the girl's clear eyes, which were full of sadness. No matter how reluctant he was to hurt her, he could only say to her in a low voice: "I'm sorry."
"Mr. Glenn, I don't want you to say such things. You will definitely save her, right?"
Glenn turned his head and sighed softly. At this time, the female warrior softly let out a moan caused by anxiety and pain. Yamina immediately rushed to her side and grabbed her hand. "Sister Loida, please wake up quickly."
Loida reluctantly opened her eyes. In confusion, she saw Amina for the first time. She happily wanted to grab her hand to confirm that this was not a dream, but was knocked down again by severe pain and passed out.
Yamina burst into tears, and Althea also shed silent tears. Even a hard-hearted warrior like Trinville couldn't bear to watch. He stood up and walked to the cave entrance.
The rain has stopped, and the sun is shining in the desert sky again. The sun will set soon, but it will rise again tomorrow.
And who can tell their fate?
This time Loida didn't stay unconscious for long before she woke up. She opened her eyes and saw the bright eyes of a young woman, looking down at her with concern. In her arms, it was little Yamina.
Loida received a fatal blow from the insect monster and fainted. Now, the pain on her body gradually made her recall what happened before.
She thought: "I was injured, will she save me?"
Her eyes saw two strong men, also sitting around not far away. She remembered it all.
She already had death thoughts in mind. Pursued by dozens of cavalry, she wanted to give up her last resistance and die peacefully. It was only because she was entrusted by the person she loved the most that she had not been able to send Miss Yamina to a safe place.
Although she knew it was in vain, at the moment she was injured and unconscious, she was unable to fulfill the tasks entrusted by her wife and the general. Miss Yamina could not help but die unexpectedly, and she was frustrated, depressed, and grieved. I was also relieved to finally be freed from that heavy and solemn oath.
But now, when she opened her eyes and saw Miss Yamina still safe and sound in her arms, how could she not cry with joy. At the same time, I am deeply grateful to these people in front of me.
During the days of fleeing, whether she was chased by the enemy or injured in battle, she always became more motivated and perseverant.
Now, as she held little Yamina in her arms, tears welled up in her eyes.
Yamina kissed her cheek, "Sister Loida, you will get better, right?"
Loida kissed her face too, choked with sobs and unable to speak. After a long time, she slowly said: "Thank you for saving us. I don't know what to say to express my gratitude."
Althea gently put her hand on her chest, indicating that she didn't need to say anything. Glenn also said to her gently: "Miss Loida, please don't take it to heart. Now you just need to rest quietly."
At that moment, Loida completely trusted the people in front of her. Their eyes were as clear as lake water, allowing people to see their pure hearts at a glance. People with such pure eyes can make people trust them with their lives.
The severe pain caused by the pulling of the wound made her gasp for breath. She smiled bitterly and said: "I understand my injury very well, and I'm afraid I won't have the chance to repay your kindness. But, noble people, please don't begrudge your generosity. I believe that the reason why you saved us must be It comes from the instruction of that noble heart, and I don't care about how much I can get in return. Thinking of this, although I still feel a little guilty, I still want to take the liberty to make an unreasonable request to you." She glanced at the person lying on her back. The girl next to me.
"Please take this girl to White Dragon City and hand it over to Mr. Momor of the Seven Saints Association. I am not alive anymore. If you abandon her, this poor child will definitely die in the desolate and terrible desert. . Please agree to my request, although this entrustment has nothing to do with you, and you will not receive any monetary reward. However, you will receive the most sincere thanks from both the dead and the living."
Althea's tears had already covered her cheeks. She looked at Grain and Trinville. Glenn knew that her injuries were beyond saving, but she had asked her before her death that he would take Yamina with him even if she didn't mention it.
He nodded, his eyes flashing with determination. Such a look will make all those who trust him feel extremely gratified. It is the most loyal commitment.
He looked at the dying female warrior and said solemnly: "Don't worry, Miss Loida. I will definitely bring Miss Yamina to the Holy City and hand her over to Mr. Momor."
Loida's eyes showed carefree joy. The people sitting around her were silent and stopped talking. Althea cried silently. However, Yamina vaguely guessed the terrible result from their words.
At such a young age, she shouldn't have to face so many separations of life and death.
She cried loudly: "Sister Loida, are you going to die? You promised me not to die. I only have you as my only relative, so don't leave me. Sister Loida, please don't die."
With tears in her eyes, Althea prayed silently. The two tough men, who could laugh and curse even in the face of the most terrifying monsters, bowed their heads in silence at this time, feeling sad in their hearts, but they could only repeat their promises to the dying female warrior over and over again, so that she could die peacefully. Leave.
Luoyida reluctantly held her in her arms with one hand. She kissed Yamina, her cheeks wet with tears of reluctance, but she still forced a smile.
"What's so scary about death? It's just because of my mission that I can't die. But now I have to leave you. What makes me happy is that I have found someone I can trust wholeheartedly, and they can protect you on my behalf. Safely, take you to the Holy City. Then I can follow the General and his wife with a smile. Miss Yamina, please wipe away your tears and let me die in peace."
"No!" Yamina stood up. "When I left my beloved father, he also secretly told me that we are sisters who depend on each other, and we must protect each other even if we give our lives. How can I watch you die. Since everything is in the end, no matter the oath How sacred it is, as long as I can save you, I'm not afraid of anything."
She stood there, raising her hands above her head and closing her bright eyes slightly.
Grayne and Trinville both stared at her, dumbfounded. Althea knelt beside her, tears welling up in her eyes.
There was a look of horror in Loida's eyes, and she shouted with all her strength: "Miss Yamina, stop!" Due to weakness and the severe pain caused by the shouting, she fainted again.
