animal ears

?The sky is faintly covered with whitish dove gray twilight, and it is almost dawn.

Cole guarded Ley all night, and Ley had a high fever all night.

He planned to change the room for some fresh air, so he went to the window and opened it. However, he didn't expect that at this moment, he suddenly smelled the smell of an uninvited guest not far away.

Not Sara or Palanch, but a malevolent smell.

Cole lowered his gaze, looked back at Ley who was still in a coma, and quickly jumped out of the window, looking for the direction of the smell.The sky was foggy, and the cold wind that had never been warmed was blowing on the field, which was a bit biting. The small piece of woods in front of him was blown by the wind, and the branches swayed, rustling, mixed with a gloomy smell, surrounded by the dark light Next, the eyes are blurred, and I can't see anything clearly.

Cole was going to scare him away.

Although I don't know the reason for the other party's visit, but at this time Ley is still seriously injured, and it is not a happy thing to have people with malicious intentions wandering around.

Deliberately releasing a murderous aura, the other party's unnatural backing sound came from a distance. However, after a while, the backing sound stopped abruptly, replaced by a thin sound piercing the air. Cole reacted in time, sideways and raised When you hold it in your hand, it's an arrow.

The sharpened arrows appear to have been prepared.

Cole frowned, quickly retracted his gaze, took a deep breath, quickly aimed his red eyes at a certain place in the dark, then threw away the arrow in his hand, dodged lightly, and rushed towards the direction of the figure like a gale. Sneak attack is the best way, but it also exposed the direction of his hiding.

Cole was very calm.

On the contrary, the sneak attacker was frightened by Cole's actions, took a breath, turned around and ran away, but the more this happened, the more clearly his position was exposed to Cole, and he ran away desperately, stepping on leaves and decay The branches crackled, and Cole chased after the sound, but just when Cole was about to catch up with him, the man suddenly turned around, took out a bone knife from his waist, and rushed towards Cole like crazy.

Cole froze for a moment, dodged the attack, hit him on the wrist, the bone knife fell, and then kicked him violently with his knee, the man fell to the ground, and was about to turn over, but Cole held his hand firmly one step earlier. Arm, strangled his throat with one hand, said coldly: "If you don't want to die, stay away from here."

The fiery red sun began to rise slowly, and the first ray of dawn broke through the sky.

But right now, there are a pair of brown eyes full of hatred, the anger in them seems to be able to burn the entire forest, and they are staring at Cole, and then, the corners of their mouths emit a willful and cold laugh.

This is a thin and slightly sickly orc with sunken eyes. He is not very old, but he looks like he has been running for a long time. clothes, with a worn-out bow and sharpened arrows on his back.

"Dead?" The orc sneered twistedly, full of anger.The person below clenched his fists unwillingly, "I was killed by you seven years ago, I am not afraid of death at all!"

The hand holding the opponent's throat was slightly loosened. Cole swallowed, looked down at the orc, and asked with some doubts: "You mean seven years ago?"

"Hmph, are you pretending to be stupid?" The orc sneered, his eyes full of contempt, "Haha... thanks to Berg who defended you until the end, but was killed by you so cruelly..." The resentful eyes were full of pain and resentment Tears were streaming down his face, but he didn't cry, instead he grabbed Cole's front with his backhand, and said fiercely and loudly like a roar, "You know, I swore to Berg and my child who died tragically, that I must personally Cut off your head!"

Mocking, sarcasm, naked, murderous intent.

It was the first time that Cole faced such a straightforward killing intent. Cole looked at his own reflection in his bloodshot pupils, and suddenly remembered the dream that had been bothering him. Mou, asked in a low voice: "Seven years ago...what happened."

With an even more contemptuous gaze, the orc raised his head and said coldly, "Are you out of your mind? How dare you ask me such a question!"

"I lost my memory," Cole said honestly.

In a daze for a moment, the orc frowned even more, and his tone became louder. He said angrily, "Excuse! You think I'll believe such a poor excuse!"

"I really can't remember." Without arguing, Cole slowly let go of the orc, and then stood up. When the orc got up too, Cole looked at him and said, "Believe it or not, I only remember one What happened a month ago."

"Lie." Intercepting Cole's words, the orc took a few steps back, vigilantly held the arrow behind him, drew his bow towards Cole, frowned and said angrily, "You want to lie to me? Hehe, you treat me like a naive child Lost memory? How could I be deceived by your trick! You killed my family, I must avenge them!"

"Your family... Berg?" Recalling the name the orc said just now, Cole raised his eyes and asked.

For myself, a very unfamiliar name.

However, upon hearing this name, the orc's eyes became even redder. On the verge of collapse, this thin and weak orc held the bow and arrow tightly, but his hands tightened and loosened. He lowered his head and slowly fell into memory, trembling despondently. , He murmured: "That idiot, when he heard that you were driven away, he ran to the patriarch to argue, but later he thought you would come back, so he went to your house every day to take care of it until... he fell in a pool of blood with the child During..." Taking a painful breath, the orc shook his head, looked up at Cole, and continued to grit his teeth, "That day, you almost killed everyone in the clan."

Nearly kills...everyone.

His whole body froze, his scalp was numb, and Cole stared blankly at him.

Isn't that a dream?

Slowly raising his hand, it was as clean as ever, and unspeakable emotions surged into his heart. Cole stared blankly at his fingers, closed his eyes, and the color of fire and blood flooded his mind again. In an instant, The smell of blood, burning, and the smell of burning fire in the wind penetrated his nostrils.

At this time, taking advantage of Cole's loss of consciousness, the orc on the opposite side let out a sinister smile.

Then, an extremely long bone knife flew horizontally from the side. Cole dodged immediately, but found that there were hollowed out traps all around, and the traps were covered with sharp wooden thorns. Cole couldn't help backing away. Several orcs with the same gloomy complexion and crazy eyes jumped out. They didn't speak to each other, but judging from their actions, they seemed to have been ambushing long ago.

Counted?

It turned out that the orc had lured him here on purpose.

Of course, Cole will not let them succeed so easily.

Blocking the attack head-on, suddenly, an orc rushed in front of him, and Cole dodged immediately, but the orc didn't attack, but sprinkled some powder on Cole's side. In an instant, Cole felt his skin burning, Then his limbs began to lose control, cramp, numbness, and soon, he completely lost the ability to move.At this time, the orc from the beginning had already calmed down, gripped the bow and arrow in his hand again, aimed at Cole's head, and the arrow was on the string, as if it would pierce his head the next moment.

"What's your name?" Cole asked, raising his chin even though he felt it was unnecessary.

With a sneer, the orc raised his hand and was about to shoot an arrow. He smiled distortedly: "Maybe after you die, I will show you mercy."

"Really." With a wry smile, Cole looked directly at the other party, saw the fatal hatred in his eyes, and knew that he probably couldn't escape.

He wanted to kill himself.

So clear, so clear, so clear.

However, at this moment, the orc on the opposite side smiled coldly, drew his bow and arrow, and the coldly glowing arrow pierced the air, but it was not Cole who hit him, but the man who pushed Cole away suddenly behind him.

"Cole──!"

Hearing the call, he raised his head in shock. Cole fell to the ground and at the same time turned his head abruptly. With the light of dawn, he saw clearly the pale and bloodless face of the person who had just pushed him away. It was Ley.The chest that was shot was bleeding, but he tried his best to give himself an indifferent smile. Not long after, the weak man seemed to be unable to hold on any longer. His body softened and he knelt down. Call: "Ley!"

Raising his head, opening the corners of his eyes with difficulty, Ley leaned over, curled the corners of his mouth, and gave a comforting smile. The blood at the corners of his mouth stained his pale lips red. He gritted his teeth, stretched out his hand, and touched Cole's cheek. With a trembling voice, he asked, "Aren't you hurt?"

"You...!" Eye sockets turned red instantly, Cole stared at Ley's bleeding wound and pale complexion, shook his head violently, and shouted, "You...why did you come? Why are you messing around like this? !"

Panting thinly, his chest heaved, and a faint smile appeared on his face: "Because I felt that you were in danger, I didn't think much about it, and my body chased me..."

With slightly hot eyes, Cole bit his lip and said in a low voice, "Idiot."

At this time, a sneer came from the opposite side, and the orc said coldly in a low voice: "It's really affectionate! Huh! So you have hooked up already?" He spat in disgust, and then raised his bow and arrow again. This time, it was accurate. Aim at Cole's head, "It's really disgusting!"

"Simon..." Despite having a high fever and being shot in the chest, Ley managed to hold on, blocked Cole with his backhand, desperately trying to stand up, but the corner of his mouth was bleeding, "I... don't allow anyone people hurt him..."

The golden eyes are very determined.

"Ley! Don't go!"

He looks like this... At this time, he still has to force himself!

But Ley rushed forward as if he hadn't heard it, and attacked those people crazily, but in this state, how could Ley be their opponent? Soon, Ley He was at a disadvantage, however, no matter how miserable he was beaten and how many times he was beaten, he stood up tenaciously, even though his face was covered with blood, even though his steps faltered, even though he had reached the limit.

Ley didn't fall down, and kept standing in front of Cole.

Tears rushed out, and Cole dragged his weak body, trying to crawl over, but he didn't even have the strength.

I feel useless.

To let Ley protect himself like this...

Really useless.

Ley fell down again and again, his blood flowed more, and his body gradually seemed to lose strength and couldn't support it.

"That's enough, Ley!" Cole burst into tears, "They're coming after me, let's go!"

Unsteadily, upon hearing Cole's words, Ley, whose head was covered in blood, stood firm, then wiped his bloody lips, lowered his eyebrows, and said with a light smile, "What are you talking about..." The cunning of the past was still mixed in his tone, with a faint smirk on the corner of his mouth, he said, "I... want to protect you."

The voice is so firm and calm.

"Ley..."

"I... want to protect you." Repeated again, after Ley finished speaking, she turned her head, her eyes were so gentle that it was heartbreaking.

The next moment, Ley was punched to the ground, blood spattered everywhere.

"Ley──!"

When he came back to his senses, Ley was already lying in a pool of blood without any response.

His eyes were blood red, and his mind went blank.

anger.

Anger, the anger that runs through the whole body, every bone is ringing with anger, and every muscle is so tense that it looks like it is about to be torn.

kill them!

Nerves clamored for killing, arousing their desire for blood.

After finishing Ley, the orcs slowly approached the immobile Cole, lifted him up, and pressed him against the tree. Two of them raised bone knives and stabbed hard into Cole's left and right palms, causing severe pain. The brain was stimulated, and the pain made Cole twitch continuously. Although he couldn't move, his body was numb as if he had already been decapitated.

They seem to intend to let themselves die in pain.

He kept punching and kicking, and then, as if to relieve his anger, he stabbed the long bone knife into his body, piercing his abdomen fiercely.

The blood flowed out slowly along the white bone knife, one drop after another, falling on the ground, the sound was clearly audible, the gradually cooling blood slowly, slowly, flowed to the front not far, beside the figure covered in blood, he His fingertips were covered with mud, and his miserable face was still smiling.

The laughter of others lingered in my ears.

Something is waking up.

Like a fiery and frightening force from hell.

Consciousness gradually became blurred, only the smell of blood, the smell of blood diffused in the nose, began to become clearer.

Then unconsciously, the power surged up and occupied the whole body.

He suddenly opened his red pupils, struggled to free the bone knife with both hands, and pulled away the sharp blade stuck on his body as if he felt no pain. He walked forward, and someone started to shout and attack him, but he only lightly Twist, and remove the arm that got in the way.

And the footsteps slowly walked towards the person who fell on the ground in the distance.

He stretched out his hand, but at this moment, his chest was pierced by an arrow, and he looked back indifferently, looking at the resentful expression of the man opposite him, and the arrow pointing directly at the center of his eyebrow.

"Go to hell." A cold laugh.

Then, then...

I can't remember anything. ?
