Emerald Star: Lan of Bonds

Xinghua woke up in the middle of the night because of the severe pain in his body, his body was empty, and the little Taidao who usually slept on his body went to nowhere.

Xinghua got up and wanted to find someone, but found that his body was so painful that he couldn't straighten up.He raised his hand, the skin on his fingers and arms was cracked, and the peeling off was not intact, and the green emerald light inside was dazzling.

"Xiao..." Xinghua wanted to call Xiao Taidao's name, but he couldn't make a sound, he could only whine.

I don't know if his crooning has attracted attention, but he vaguely saw Mr. Butterfly and Meimei eagerly rushing in the door, kneeling beside him and caring, but he still couldn't say a word.

The signs of his body turning into energy were out of control, and even his ears were full of buzzing tinnitus, and he couldn't make out what the people crouching beside him were saying.

The bed seemed to be shaking slightly, he smelled the smell of corruption, and his vision began to become dark and deep.

Mr. Butterfly and Meimei are by his side—but where is the little Taidao he wants to see most?

"You have too much emotion for org, which is unreasonable. I guess it is the impact of the contract. After withdrawing your contract, maybe you will be more sober." Mori Yu's voice was indifferent and steady.

"Nonsense!" roared Kodachi, stabbing him with the tip of the needle.

"Are you sure I'm talking nonsense? After withdrawing the contract, you will no longer have the problem of master and pet co-connection, and the degree of influence by org will also be greatly reduced. At that time, your head will be much clearer than now, maybe you I will no longer feel how important that org is." Mori Yu said: "Isn't this what you really want? I'm helping you, Kodachi."

"Go to hell and help me!" Xiaodachi suddenly struggled more violently.

"Xiao Taidao!" Ron tried his best to help hold Xiao Taidao, but Xiao Taidao seemed to be mad. Even though he had struggled for a while just now, he didn't feel tired at all, but became more violent.

"I'm glad that Xinghua is using a contract to restrain you and have nothing to do with you! Don't say anything there and help me, and don't allow you to take away the connection between me and Xinghua!" Xiao Taidao's eyes were red with anger.

Seeing that Kodachi couldn't hold back any longer, Moritama aimed at Kodachi's neck, trying to inject the liquid in the syringe, but the Kodachi was moving around tensely and restlessly, making it difficult for him to aim, and the needle tip didn't reach Inserting it in, Ron was kicked away, Kodachi reached out and pulled Moritama's collar and threw him out.

Senyu rolled around and got up, grabbed the needle in his hand and wanted to rush out again, but found that the needle tip was crooked, and within a few seconds of realizing this fact, the little sword rushed towards him like a beast again, Hit him against the wall with great force.

"Ron!" Mori Yu shouted.

Ron also rushed up a second later and tried to pull Kodachi away, but Kodachi hit his face with an elbow, and the smell of blood spread.

Ron fell to the ground. He didn't know if the blow had stunned his head. He always felt that the floor was shaking slightly.

Kodachi attacked Moriyu like a madman, almost beating him to death.

Moriyu just thought this was a good move, not only did not break the contract on Kodachi, but now he had to try his best to appease the lunatic Kodachi, he barely blocked a few punches from Kodachi, and then punched Kodachi in the face, but Kodachi didn't seem to be afraid The pain is general, the more frustrated the more courageous.

Moriyu kicked the little sword away and was about to pounce on it, but the vibration from the ground forced him to stop.

Xiaodachi jumped up immediately, instead of attacking Moriyu, he ran towards Xinghua and his room.

Before Senyu and Ron could figure out the situation, someone rushed in to report: "Senyu, there are bugs!"

"What?" Senyu frowned, and immediately rushed out of the room with the informant.

It turned out that there was a vibration on the floor because insects invaded from the lower floor upwards. The concrete floor was cracked, and several insects took advantage of the gap and squeezed into the underground waterway.

Fortunately, the dogs are almost all well-trained, and before the bugs caused any casualties, they were already dealt with by a few dogs who jumped on it.

When Mori Yu arrived at the place where the bugs came out, only a few places were damaged. The corpses of the bugs were lying on the ground, maintaining their posture before death, and they were scrambling to squeeze into a room.

The iron door of the room was squeezed and twisted, and a worm head was stuck in the doorway, and it was stuck firmly on the ground with a knife.

"What's going on?" Ron followed behind with a look of disbelief, "I thought it was safe here!"

"It's very safe here. It's the first time that bugs have invaded." Moriyu remained expressionless. He waved his hand to let the dogs who came because of the commotion back down, and then walked forward.

The smell of org in the air was strong, stronger than ever before, and it might be because of the smell flowing out from the vent that the bugs coveted it.

Going over the corpse to the room, Moriyu found that Kodachi had come back here, he was hugging org with an unnatural light on his body, while Meimei and Mr. Butterfly were watching anxiously.

"Xiao Taidao, what's wrong with Xiao Hua? Will he die?" The little girl whimpered loudly, her fingers tightly gripping Xiao Taidao's clothes.

Org's situation is even worse than when Mori Yu saw him two days ago.

"It's Org...how could Org appear here?" Several traveling dogs who were in charge of handling the corpses also saw the situation in the room, and they whispered until Mori Yu glanced at them.

Mr. Butterfly knew something was wrong, so he covered Xinghua with a quilt first, and then went to talk with Moriyu alone, asking Moriyu to give them a room where everyone can be isolated, and then talk about the rest.

Mori Yu agreed, he sent the dogs away first, and then gave them a room.

Xiao Taidao just hugged Xinghua tightly like this, as if he was afraid that he would run away if he let him go, and he would have strong hostility when people other than Meimei and Mr. Butterfly approached.

"Is there any way to keep the secret?" Mister Butterfly asked when only Moriyu and Ron who followed were left in the room.

"There are a lot of people who discovered him just now, and some people have been suspicious for a long time, I'm afraid there is no way." Senyu shook his head, he didn't expect to be discovered so soon, "Someone will soon ask me to deal with this Org. "

"Can't you think of a way?"

Moriyu remained silent, of course there was a way, and he had always planned this way, but he was just destroyed by Kodachi.

"Mr. Butterfly! Don't ask him to find a way, that guy is an asshole!" Xiao Taidao interrupted their conversation through gritted teeth, "He was planning to terminate the contract between me and Xinghua just now."

"Why did you do this?" Mr. Butterfly was puzzled. What happened to Xiaodachi and Moriyu just now?He thought Kodachi was just going to investigate the situation.

"Because only Kodachi has a contract connection with Org." Mori Yu sighed, and he just said lightly: "You and that little girl don't have one. If you remove the contract on Kodachi, you don't have to be subject to that Org at all." Now, we can get rid of that Org, or send him back, and you can stay and live free from your master."

"Are you going to treat Master like this?" Mr. Butterfly now understood why Xiaodachi was so angry. "Don't be kidding, no matter whether the contract is terminated or not, it is impossible for us to let you do this to the master."

"Really? You are a play dog, and I can understand the deep relationship with the owner, but Kodachi is a hunting dog. Once the contract with the owner is broken, there is no concern that the owner's life is tied to the owner, and all the influence from Org will stop. .”

"What do you want to say?"

"I think Kodachi's loyalty and love for Org is only influenced by Org itself. If the contract is removed, Kodachi will be free, and his thoughts and tendencies will no longer be influenced by Org, and then... maybe he will ruthlessly abandon him. Org, join my team." Mori Yu thinks that the matter has reached this point, and it doesn't matter if he tells Mr. Butterfly and the others.

Moritama means that as long as the contract is terminated, Kodachi will completely abandon his feelings for Xinghua, and it is only because of the existence of the contract that Xinghua's emotions affect Kodachi?What absurdity!Mr. Butterfly thought.Moriyu completely rejected Kodachi's feelings for Xinghua.

Mr. Butterfly looked at Kodachi, he hoped that Kodachi could say something to refute, but Kodachi just hugged Xinghua tightly and huddled in the corner, looking at Moriyu with a wary face.

"You're just bluffing!" Kodachi roared.

"If you think I'm bluffing, then try to cancel the contract. If you still have the same attitude then, I have nothing to say." Mori Yu said.

"Do you think I'll be fooled?" Xiao Taidao was furious, with a rare panic in his eyes.

Now Xiaodachi looks as if he is really afraid, afraid that after his contract is terminated, he will no longer care about Xinghua.

"Xiao Taidao, what Mori Yu said makes sense, accept it! After the contract is terminated, you will only feel that you are flattering and stupid now..." Ron said halfway, a chair flew over and fell on Ron's side .

"You can't talk about Kodachi like that!" Meimei puffed her face angrily, and she planned to throw another table over.

Seeing that the people around Xinghua became hostile towards him, Moriyu decided to retreat temporarily, as continuing to talk would only increase the tense atmosphere.

"In short, you have to make a decision. Although I don't know what happened to this Org, but in any case, his existence has already attracted pests, and it will be a matter of time before he attracts Orgs who hunt you. I must invite him Get out." Moriyu's eyes turned cold, "Even if you don't invite him out, we have to get rid of him, and before we get rid of him, I will force you to accept our injection and terminate your contract."

Based on the current situation, Kodachi has no time to worry about the story ball anymore, and no matter what decision Kodachi makes, in the end Moritama will at most lose Kodachi, a powerful hunting dog, and he will not suffer too much damage.

The most important thing now is to preserve his brigade dog base. After dealing with Kodachi and the others, it's time to study inside the story ball...

So Moriyu gave an ultimatum, this is his territory, Kodachi and the others are not qualified to refuse.

"What's wrong with him?" When everyone else went out, Xiao Taidao asked Xinghua in his arms.

"I don't know, after you went out in the middle of the night, he suddenly became like this." Mr. Butterfly replied.

After Xiao Taidao entrusted Xinghua to their care, Xinghua fell asleep all the time. Not long after Xiao Taidao went out, he heard him whine, and then the pests attacked.

"Xinghua! Xinghua!" Xiao Taidao tried to wake Xinghua up, but Xinghua looked very weak, his whole hand turned into an emerald green material state, and the cracks in the skin continued to extend upwards.

What does this mean?Does it mean that Xinghua will completely become like this in the future?Xiao Taidao was flustered, and Xinghua didn't tell him clearly what would happen to him in the end.

"Calm down, Kodachi, you have to think about what to do now." Mr. Butterfly comforted softly.

Except for Xiao Taidao, Xinghua didn't talk to them about why he fell ill, so now only Xiao Taidao knows the ins and outs.

But Kodachi seemed to be influenced by Moriyu, he was a little uneasy.Mr. Butterfly is not sure whether Kodachi is really afraid of what Mori Yu said.

"Should we go to a doctor? I mean, the kind of doctor who looks after Org, not here." Mr. Butterfly asked, but soon received a negative message from Kodachi.

"No, we can't let anyone find him." Kodachi shook his head and tightened his grip.

"But Kodachi, it's impossible for us to stay here any longer."

"I know that it's dangerous to continue to stay here to command. Moriyu and those guys who found Xinghua will try their best to get rid of him. We must leave before then." Kodachi said.

"But where are we going if we leave here?" Meimei wiped away her tears and snot, she felt that Xinghua and Xiaodachi were so pitiful.

"I don't know, but we can't stay here any longer, we have to leave now." After making up his mind, Xiaodachi got up and asked Mr. Butterfly and the others to sort things out.

This method is absolutely reckless, they go out now, Xinghua is just a dead end, there is no comfortable place to take care of Xinghua, and even they have to wander among the ruins.

Staying here, they can get a good living environment, and Xinghua can also be taken care of by them, but in the end, Xinghua may disappear faster because of Senyu's relationship...

Mr. Butterfly weighed it, and finally found that there was nothing to think about.

***

"Okay, let's leave." Mr. Butterfly made up his mind from the beginning that he would always follow Kodachi and the others, but now he doesn't plan to change his mind. "Meimei, you sneak to the kitchen to bring some food back, and then take everything you want to bring along the way."

"Okay!" Meimei got up and ran out quickly.

"Is there anything else you need?" Mr. Butterfly asked Kodachi, while wrapping Xinghua up with a sheet, "Medicine or something?"

"No, I will come back to get the things I need." Kodachi wrapped Org tightly with a sheet. There is no way to snatch the story ball back now. That cunning guy Mori Yu will definitely hide things better . "The most important thing now is to find another place to hide Xinghua."

"Okay, but after you hide it, you don't want to mess around with Xiao Tai Dao." Mr. Butterfly strongly suspected that Xiao Tai Dao would come back to get what he wanted to take alone.

Xiao Taidao didn't answer, he carried the unconscious Xinghua on his back, just like when they came here before.

"Now?" Mr. Butterfly asked, he prepared his luggage and carried it on his body.

"Wait for Meimei to come back, then run!"

run?There is no plan at all, simple and reckless as hell, it is really Kodachi's style.Mr. Butterfly shook his head and sighed softly, but Kodachi always has the ability to use this bad method to get out of trouble.

The Hound fled with his Org, sweeping over those who stood in their way in extremely rough fashion.

Mori Yu didn't send people to stop them immediately, the pest just happened, and the matter of hiding the Org hadn't been discovered by too many people, and Mori Yu didn't plan to expand this matter, and Kodachi didn't have time to ask him for the story The ball goes away again, so as he originally planned, he has no loss.

"You just let Kodachi run away?" Ron couldn't understand Moriyu's approach, and he even asked Meimei to remove all their food. "I thought you were going to win him over!"

"I do."

"Then you let him go so easily?"

"Don't worry, how far do you think they can run? With an Org that can cause pests, there are people chasing them outside, without any means of transportation, they can't run far, plus the story ball is still here with me, Sooner or later, Kodachi will come back to ask for it."

Moriyu looked at Ron with a serious and suspicious face, he shrugged, "I really don't understand why you care so much, do you like Kodachi so much?"

"I didn't!"

"I don't care." Mori Yu waved his hand in front of Ron, "Anyway, you don't have to worry about it. I have already sent someone with medicine to follow Kodachi and them. There are still opportunities to win over your beloved Kodachi."

"I said he wasn't my beloved!" Ron blushed.

"Hey! I told you, I don't care."

Mori Yu smiled, he was about to leave, but was stopped by Ron.

"Any comments?"

"Yes, what exactly is the story ball you're talking about? Why are they rushing for Kodachi?" Ron has been wondering about this for a long time. Ever since they met, the story ball has been mentioned repeatedly.

"Oh, I haven't told you about it yet, have I? No wonder you're always such a bitch about little things that don't matter."

"Senyu!" Ron was about to get angry, but Senyu grabbed his neck and dragged him away.

"Come on, I'll take you to see what a story ball is, it's a clue that can lead us to the great ark!"

"What the hell is the ark?"

"As an abandoned dog, you are really disqualified, let me teach you well!"

Xiao Taidao and the others took Xinghua out of the sewer and ran wildly in the abandoned city.

The city above the sewers is huge. It can be seen that it used to be a prosperous city, but the decline of the Emerald Star and the pests caused the city to collapse. The whole city presents a gloomy gray tone, and the air seems to be full of dust.

Xiao Taidao was very unwilling to leave Xinghua, who was already seriously ill, in this environment, but they fled in the middle of the night, and since they forced Mori Yu to bring them to the stronghold, they didn't know what the situation outside was like. It is impossible to bring Xinghua back to the sick forest to hide.

In addition, the process of fleeing was not smooth. Although Mori Yu unexpectedly failed to catch up, they were attacked by many insects, and the insects were all attracted by Xinghua's smell.

As a last resort, Xiao Taidao had to kill more insects, and then smeared the insect blood that Xinghua hated on him, so that he could reduce the smell, but it made Xinghua look even more uncomfortable.

Mr. Butterfly suggested finding a ruin to hide for Xinghua to rest, so Xiao Taidao found a place far away from all the underground passages. Although it was dirty, at least there were roofs and walls, but it was impossible for them to hide too much. Long.

When I finally settled down, the sky had gradually turned white, but it was much darker than usual, and there was a damp smell in the air.

"Xinghua, Xinghua, wake up, don't sleep." Xiao Taidao took Xinghua to hide in the corner, and he kept shaking his body lightly, as if he was very nervous.

It was the first time for Meimei and Mr. Butterfly to see Kodachi so disturbed.

"I haven't got the story ball back yet, and you haven't found the ark yet, don't sleep!" Xiao Taidao whispered in Xinghua's ear, but Xinghua still closed his eyes tightly.

Xiao Taidao found that the skin on Xinghua's face began to crack obviously, and he didn't know what to do now to save Xinghua.

Meimei seemed to be influenced by the Kodachi, she tightly grabbed Mr. Butterfly's clothes with her fingers, and stared at him anxiously, as if asking what happened?what to do?

"Sleep for a while? Otherwise, you will be tired if you continue to drive later." I still remember stroking Meimei's head and letting Meimei lean on her body.

Although he spoke calmly, where are they going next?Mr. Butterfly himself has no idea at all.

He looked at the gray sky with his head tilted in a daze, and Kodachi was still hiding in the corner and continued to whisper to Xinghua.

A drop of water hits the windowless window frame, and Mister Butterfly looks up to the sky from the angle.

"Ah, it's raining."
