The streets were in a mess, the flames brought by the captain of the vanguard spread all the way, thick smoke billowed, and a single spark turned into a prairie fire.

Ke Lei arrived first, and what he saw was the pit-shaped ruins smashed by the forward captain.The flames didn't go out, but burned more and more intensely. The forward captain who was supposed to be lying in the big pit disappeared.

After hovering in the sky for a few laps, Ke Lei had to accept the fact that the forward captain was missing.

The voice of the elders of the empire came from the communicator: "The demon is seriously injured, and it shouldn't be able to run very far. All dragon riders will go to the ground and conduct a comprehensive search!"

Seeing his companions start to land, Wei Long was taken aback, and was about to stop him when he heard Ke Lei yelling: "The order is aborted! Everyone is on standby in the air!"

According to the laws of the empire, the elders can give orders instead of the generals, but the generals cannot interfere with the orders of the elders.Ke Lei is just a frontier general, and according to the rules, he can't even speak.

However, he blatantly discontinued the order.

He didn't have the authority to interfere, but helplessly, the dragon riders stopped in unison and stayed in midair.

They still trusted him very much in their bones-trusted Clay who had led them.

The communicator was silent for a while, and finally the elder's voice sounded: "Ke Lei, what's going on?"

"Sorry, Elder." Ke Lei said, "The ground is dangerous, you can't go down."

"Is this your judgment?"

"Yes."

"Tell me in detail?"

Ke Lei was silent, he couldn't give an accurate answer.

The elders of the empire were anxious: "Dangerous? Where is the danger?! It would be really dangerous if that demon escaped! Everyone..."

"Waiting for orders!" Ke Lei still said the same words, "Don't go to the ground!"

The dragon riders looked at each other, and finally looked at the silent Sally Fando.

"Cole, did you find something?" Sally Fando asked, "What danger is it?"

Ke Lei looked down at the burning fire, not because he didn't want to explain, but because he didn't know and couldn't explain why.

An urging came from the communicator: "General Sally Fando, you are in charge of the team now, why don't you hurry up and order?!"

"Yes! Elder!" Sally Fando put away the communicator, and continued to stare at Ke Lei, "Can you explain?"

Ke Lei was also looking at her. Perhaps in the eyes of the current female general, his behavior was extremely weird, as if he had acted impromptu.

But all the dragonriders present understood that Ke Lei would not act impromptu, all his plans were based on evidence, and he would only issue orders when he was sure.

Everything happened for a reason.

They all wanted to know why Ke Lei called them to stop at the risk of violating the military order.

Danger?What is the danger?

Wei Long moved, flapped his wings and flew to the front of the team, turned around, one person and one dragon, looking at his familiar teammates with serious expressions.

"Don't go down!" Wei Long said, "You must not go down!!!"

Sally Fando's gaze swept over Wei Long, and stared at Ke Lei on Wei Long's back.

"Can't go down." Corley only had this sentence.

There is no explanation.

There is no way to explain it.

But Ke Lei believed in Wei Long's judgment.

"Okay." Sally Fando nodded, and formally ordered as the general of the empire, "The order is revoked, and all personnel are searched by air, and they are not allowed to go to the ground!"

The voice of the elder sounded from the communicator: "You..."

Another elder advised: "Forget it, let it be the sky."

Some elders questioned: "How can you search in the air? Could it be that the other party ran under your nose and let you find it?!"

There was chatter on the communicator, and Sally Fondo switched the channel to a separate communication with Ke Lei.

"You owe me an explanation." Sally Fando said, "Remember to make it up, so I can explain it to my superiors!"

Ke Lei shook his head with a wry smile, and lightly stroked Wei Long's mane.

He is at best a frontier general, his rank is lower than the imperial generals, and the imperial generals must obey the orders of the elders of the empire.

But he openly resisted.

Maybe after the matter is over, he will be dismissed, or transferred to a further place?

It's not anyone's fault, he asked for it.

Wei Long didn't know the future that Ke Lei was about to face, so he breathed a sigh of relief and happily shook his long tail.

The dragoons hovered in the air, and the blood owl covered the curtains, closing his eyes to sense the little owls scattered throughout the city.

The Dragoons stopped mid-descent and returned to the air.They were looking for the forward captain, but they refused to search the ground.If they went to the ground, they might have discovered the secret "love nest" of the third elder.

What are they afraid of?

Also, what exactly was it that injured the forward captain?

At that time, the forward captain fought against the air as if he was performing a one-man show. In fact, Xue Xiao didn't see what his opponent was at all.

Why don't you ask him again when he wakes up?

Xue Xiao turned his head thoughtfully, just in time to meet the eyes of the seriously injured patient.

No bandages, no medicines, the seriously injured patients covered in pitch black were thrown on the bed like salted fish, and the blood stained most of the bedding red.

However, the strong vitality of the demon kept him alive, and the wound had stopped bleeding and was rapidly healing.

"Water..." the captain of the forward was dry.

With Xue Xiao's permission, Zhou Yang opened the water bag and handed it to the mouth of the forward captain. The forward captain seemed very thirsty, and drank the full bag of water in one go.

The devil needs to eat a lot of blood and meat to replenish his strength after being injured, but now clear water is fine. After drinking it, the captain of the forward smacked his lips in disgust, and asked Zhou Yang, who was in charge of feeding, "Is there anything to eat?"

Zhou Yang took out some pancakes, which A Huan brought to the third elder.The forward captain ate the cold pancakes, licked his mouth, and sighed, "It's not delicious, is there any meat? Barbecue is also fine..."

Zhou Yang was speechless, does this master really regard himself as a master?

Xue Xiao said: "Don't pay attention to him."

Zhou Yang sat back beside Aix, supervising the seriously injured patient with his arms around his knees.

The severely injured patient who was loved by no one was dying, turned his head and found a chubby little owl on the side of the pillow, so he leaned forward and stuck out his tongue to lick it.

Xiao Xiaoxiao suddenly blew up, Xue Xiao was almost disgusted by him, and said angrily: "Don't you know what is good or bad!"

The forward captain said: "I haven't eaten yet, why are you nervous?"

He gasped for a few breaths, closed his eyes and seemed to have fallen asleep.Xue Xiao continued to concentrate on sensing Xiao Xiaoxiao outside, but unexpectedly, the seriously injured patient turned his head again, and Wang Mei quenched his thirst and licked it.

Zhou Yang hurriedly took Xiao Xiaoxiao away, and said angrily, "Don't bully it!"

The forward captain didn't know Zhou Yang and Aix, but he knew Xue Xiao, the number one bounty hunter among the demons.He knew that the little Xiaoxiao was formed by the magic power of the blood owl, not a real creature, but this guy protects the little guy like a chicken, it's ridiculous!

The forward captain waited for Xue Xiao to ask questions, he had a lot to share with them.

Xue Xiao didn't ask anything.

Xue Xiao kept silent, so Zhou Yang and Aix naturally remained silent, and no one wanted to talk to this notorious bloodthirsty hooligan.

The forward captain sat up by himself and confided unwillingly: "I was attacked."

Xue Xiao folded his hands on his chest and closed his eyes to rest.

He saw Captain Vanguard's battle outside the city and what happened in the city through Xiao Xiaoxiao. Although he didn't see who the opponent was, his intuition told him that the thing that attacked Captain Vanguard must have something to do with a certain original species. !

"It's the thread!" the forward captain said, "I was attacked by the thread, it's... well, it's the kind of very thin thread, you can't see it if you don't look carefully!"

Speaking of thread, Zhou Yang only thought of Pegasus who used lead wire as a weapon.

Pegasus is known to use threads, so if it was him, why hide?

If not Pegasus, then who?

The blood lord knew who it was, but he was only speculating, and he had no evidence to prove that he was the original parasitic species.

He didn't even know where the original parasite was.

But he had a feeling that the original parasitic species that looked like a puppet must be nearby, and somehow supervised them.

"Those threads are alive... they can move by themselves! I think they are a kind of living body!" Recalling his own experience, the forward captain couldn't help trembling, "That kind of creature... I have never seen it before, they are lying in ambush In the city, I don’t know how many there are..."

The captain of the striker looked at Xue Xiao eagerly, expecting him to give some advice, or to help him analyze it.

Xue Xiao leaned against the wall motionless, closing his eyes as if wandering into the sky.

"Hey! Are you listening?!" The forward captain got angry, "You think I'm joking?! Everything I said is true! If you don't believe me, look at my wound...I..."

No one ignored him.

The captain of the striker gave up and lay back on the bed, feeling like a big fool.

Xue Xiao didn't say a word, but he listened to every word the forward captain said.

If his guess is correct, the forward captain who revealed the "secret" will definitely become the target of "it".

From which direction will "it" attack?

Xue Xiao was on guard.

Xiao Xiaoxiao in Zhou Yang's arms also opened his big bright eyes, looking around vigilantly.

Quietly.

The expected attack did not happen.

The sound of the black dragon flapping its wings echoed outside the window, and the dragoons patrolled the sky, but no one went down to the ground.

Is there something on the ground?

Are those "lines" hidden on the ground?

Xue Xiao observed the street through the cracks in the curtains, and suddenly a bold idea came to his mind, and he turned around and said, "Let's go!"

"...Huh?" Zhou Yang hadn't recovered yet, "Where...where are we going?"

"Go to the Black Tower."

"Ah?!" Zhou Yang said in surprise, "Don't you wait for that elder?"

Xue Xiao said: "He has no chance to come."

Zhou Yang said: "The outside is full of dragon riders. Is it too early to go to the Black Tower?"

A seriously injured patient sneered: "You still expect them to withdraw? Tell you, it's impossible! A group of them went down the underground waterway and haven't come out yet, but they haven't gone down to search, and they haven't sent additional manpower. There must be other plans. We don't know what they are doing, the longer it takes, the worse it will be for us... What if they set fire to the city?"

Xue Xiao nodded: "He is right. We don't know what measures they have. The longer it takes, the worse it will be for us."

The forward captain snorted triumphantly.

Xue Xiao opened the door: "Let's go!"

Zhou Yang dragged his bracelets and shackles, and chased after him bang bang bang: "Hey! Where are we going? Are we going to take the secret road?"

Xue Xiao: "There is no secret way."

Zhou Yang choked: "Then..."

Blood owl: "Go down the street."

Zhou Yang: "..."

Xue Xiao turned his head impatiently and said: "What are you worried about? Dragonriders are only flying in the sky now, we don't take the streets, so why not fly up?"

The choice Xue Xiao made must have his considerations, Aix nodded, and dragged Zhou Yang, and the two followed Xue Xiao clattering.

The seriously injured patient was lying on the bed, humming disdainfully: "What, you didn't listen to me at all... There are silk threads on the ground and you are walking on the street? Isn't this going to die?"

Hearing the sound of footsteps gradually going away, the forward captain was a little flustered.The premonition of crisis came again. He looked around in horror, and the more he looked, the more frightened he became. He felt a murderous aura spreading in the room, and something bad would happen if he didn't leave.

He didn't care about face anymore, he pulled off the sheet and wrapped it around his body, chased him out and said, "Hey! Wait... Take me!!!"

There was no one on the street, and the food in the stalls was still on sale. The barbecue was mushy, and the boiled fish was dry. Only the big meat buns were still emitting a hot aroma.The forward captain was dizzy with hunger, and while the dragonrider was flying away, the forward captain reached out and stole a big meat bun.

He swallowed the meat buns in two or three bites, and reached out to touch two more.The wound healed quickly, but at the cost of having to eat to replenish his strength.After eating deliciously, he continued to stretch out his hand, and raised his head to meet Xue Xiao's gaze.

Xue Xiao glanced at him and said nothing, and took Zhou Yang and Aix to hide in the other corner.They stopped and went, specially picking corners that the dragon rider could not see.Seeing that they were going to go far, the forward captain had to give up the delicious big buns.Strange to say, they didn't encounter silk threads along the way. Maybe those silk threads were still nearby, but they didn't attack for some reason.

The forward captain followed not far or near, Xue Xiao knew how to hide, and he also knew how to hide.He is not worried about Xue Xiao, and Xue Xiao will not worry about him.

It's just that sometimes I can't help but steal a piece of biscuits and a pot of soup.The forward captain was really hungry, and this little food was not enough for him.There was still a long way to go to the Black Tower, he couldn't catch up with Xue Xiao, and fell far behind.When he stole food again, he was accidentally discovered by the dragoons.

Dragonriders gathered in the sky, and the flustered forward captain looked up and found Xue Xiao looking at him not far away.

They hid in the corner, not because they didn't want to leave, but because they couldn't.

The dragoons' eyes were all fixed in this direction, as long as the forward captain ran towards them, their whereabouts would be exposed at the same time.

The forward captain turned his head and ran in the opposite direction.

Although he is a devil, he also understands a truth, that is, he will never harm his benefactor who saved him.

The captain of the vanguard fled alone. He has always been a loner. Why do we need so-called companions?

Humph, it's better to be alone!No care, no worries, go wherever you want!

only……

The fear and anxiety in his heart swept over again. This time, can he escape alone?

"Chirp!" A small fur ball flew down from the eaves and landed lightly on the forward captain's shoulder.

The forward captain bared his teeth: "Why are you following me? Didn't you lick enough?"

It's like a dog's mouth can't spit out ivory!Xiao Xiaoxiao turned his head indifferently.

The sound of the black dragon's wings echoed, and the unknown crisis lurking on the ground also followed.The forward captain ran away quickly, but his tightly pressed thin lips couldn't help evoking a smile.

The author has something to say:

The forward captain hasn't left the field yet, and he'll be back soon! = ̄ω ̄=
