Chapter 729: Wounded Dragon
The sea quickly returned to calm, as if nothing had happened.
It took the four burning arrows and washed away the dragon's blood.
Although it is moody most of the time, at this critical moment, it behaves more calmly than any living creature.
…
Milo woke up after being immersed in sea water and choked. It found itself floating in an area offshore, surrounded by charred driftwood.
After waking up, he looked at the high, cold wall on land that was thousands of miles away.
Perhaps it has always been a bird's-eye view from above the clouds. Only now that we have fallen into the sea can we truly feel the majesty and insurmountable momentum of the high wall...
"Just wait. . ”
After saying cold words in a voice that only he could hear, he dragged his scarred body and swam in the direction of Freya.
…
The three giant arrows that were fired later were smeared with some kind of special grease. Milo’s body was stained with grease and dragon’s blood at the same time, and sea water couldn’t wash them away. The two substances are still cannibalizing and killing each other. , causing his skin to constantly burst into cracks.
This was just a skin injury. After the terrifying impact of the giant arrow, if it weren't for the considerable fear contributed by the bystanders in the surrounding sea, Milo might not have been able to wake up from the water.
…
…
Finally, in the seawater where the giant arrow fragments were floating, Milo found Freya, who was covered in blood. At this time, she had returned to her human form, and her body was covered with lacerations that were more hideous and terrifying than Milo. In addition, In addition, she had horrific penetrating wounds on her abdomen, left leg and left shoulder, and a broken horn on her head.
She had been poisoned and suffered severe penetrating injuries in Leng Yuan before, but she always resurrected with full blood after lying down and sleeping.
But this time, the wound on Freya's body seemed to have no intention of healing at all, and there seemed to be something burning inside the wound.
It should be the special grease smeared on the giant arrow...
Fortunately, the man is still alive.
…
Milo spent a lot of effort before dragging Freya onto a larger piece of driftwood.
In all the ancient classics he dabbled in, there were many sinister and sinister spells that could harm people, as well as methods of summoning foreign gods to destroy the world and destroy the earth. The only thing missing was the spell to save people's lives.
The reason why evil books are called evil is because all spells have corresponding prices.
Is there any magic to bring the dead back to life?
Of course there is, but it’s hard to say whether the person who was finally revived is the same person...
…
So in the face of the dying Freya, the only thing Milo can do is Holding her, letting out the gentle side of sinful fire, alleviated some of the pain in her body.
Soon Freya's breathing slowly stabilized, but she could still feel the terrible pain she was suffering from her frown.
The flame drove away the coldness of the sea water, but the gentle fire could not burn away the grease attached to Freya's body. Milo did not dare to try it with black flames. He was afraid of directly cremating Freya. Got…
At this moment, some ships belonging to the two kingdoms slowly sailed out of the river port on the distant land.
Obviously the people within the high wall have received the message and began to send manpower out to sea to perform salvage tasks.
…
Milo spat bloody spit into the sea water aside.
When I turned my head, I found that a ship was slowly approaching from the other direction of the sea.
"Okay, okay."
He was holding back his anger and had no place to vent it. At this time, no matter who was the unlucky guy who got there first, he would be sent to be the companion of the crybaby.
…
Milo protected Freya behind him and raised his left hand. The spiral pattern of the fire of sin emerged again. The black flame continued to expand and expand, ready to swallow up anyone who was leaning towards him. The black ship that came.
He is very aware of his current situation. The dragon was shot down in front of everyone's eyes. This sea area will be the focus of the salvage operation. There will inevitably be a fierce battle next.
And just as he was preparing to burn the ship to ashes with a fire, he heard a familiar voice exclaiming:
"Don't mess around! Do you still remember me? Please don't do it. I No harm..."
"You saved us, remember?"
…
We met before on the isolated island and invited Milo. The guy who got on the boat.
If it weren't for saving his ship, Freya probably wouldn't have been discovered by the people shooting giant arrows on land. It's impossible to say...
With Milo's acquiescence, the black ship slowly Approach slowly.
The deck was crowded with some children who were shorter than the fence. They all looked at Milo curiously.
Under the scolding of the man who spoke earlier, the children reluctantly hid back in the cabin.
The man stood on the bow of the boat, looking deeply at Milo and the black flames on his hands that were not completely covered up.
When he noticed the scarred and naked Freya behind Milo, he turned around, took out a robe and threw it down, and then ordered someone to put down the rope ladder.
…
Milo stared at the man with long hair and beard with a scrutinizing gaze the whole time.
The man seemed to understand Milo's vigilance.
He said this:
"I can't give you much time to think about it. It doesn't matter if you really can't trust me, but you'd better burn every ship that comes near."
It means that in this sea area, except for No other ship would lower the ladder for Milo.
The man behaved very frankly.
Milo then accepted this frankness.
In fact, he had no choice but to leave Freya behind, but that was impossible.
…
Milo wrapped Freya into a mummy and carried her on the broken cargo ship. In the dark and damp cabin, the man sent some simple medical supplies, namely a few bundles of bandages and some antiseptic ointments, which had no effect at all.
The ship was severely damaged when it was attacked by sea monsters. The main mast was broken, leaving only the secondary mast and a torn canvas dragging the ship slowly.
…
As the man said before on the desert island, he must have lost a lot of sailors on his ship. Except for himself as the captain, there were only two male crew members, and the rest were all children. They were cleaning up. The older children were responsible for the debris on the boat.
The crew had no objection to the captain’s decision and just remained silent.
In addition, there is a woman in her forties on board.
It was the one who took the initiative to send the medical equipment. She called herself "Shana".
…
After getting Milo's permission, she gently opened the robe covering Freya's body. When she saw the horrific wounds and the greasy substance that was constantly biting her flesh and blood, Shana covered her mouth in shock for a long time. Then she said one sentence:
"No, poor child...she is still alive..."
Then she knelt down and clasped her hands in front of her chest, closing her eyes tightly. Pray for Freya.
…
Milo rolled his eyes.
"Madam, if there is nothing else, please come out first..."
"Shut up!"
He had already patiently asked this aunt to get out in a very polite tone, but in the end But he was severely beaten.
Aunt Shana gave Milo a sharp warning look, then resumed her pious posture and quickly completed the entire prayer process.
Then she washed her hands with the boiling water she brought and drank from the simple medical equipment.
And while cursing:
“Damn Hawkeye tribe, they actually used dragon-damaging grease on a child, such despicable things, they should all be cut into pieces, sealed in a pot, and marinated into mud. .”
Aunt Shana’s cursing face was completely different from the pious look she had shown before when she prayed.
But the vicious words did not delay the movements of her hands.
She even knew that Milo controlled the power of fire, so she grabbed Milo's hand and asked him to release the gentle fire, which was used to bake and burn the metal knife in his hand.
Then she started to use the small blade to cut off the ulcerated skin stained with oil bit by bit on Freya's body...
Milo originally thought that she was just scraping off the oil, but who knew that even the skin was also cut off? And cut it off...
I wanted to ask for confirmation, but I ran into her sharp warning eyes, so I could only squat next to him with the iron bucket and catch the knife thrown by the blade at any time. Ulcerated skin.
…
Of course, in order to reassure Milo, Shana patiently explained something while treating the wound:
"She is a strong child. You don't have to worry about her life. As long as the grease attached to her body is removed, new flesh and blood can grow back. This is Xiren's talent... and also a curse..."< br>
“The Xi people, the bloodline of ancient dragons, a race that has been searching for its origin for generations.”
“They do not serve any gods. In their teachings, the Xi people have their own masters, then The Heavenly Father who released the bondage of the Greek race is waiting for them on the other side of chaos, so the Greeks will not surrender to any temple, not even the supreme Mount Kadath..."
"Therefore, they are also subject to Unjust oppression and cruel purification..."
…
Purification is the word related to the Greeks that Milo has heard most times since he came here from Leng Yuan.
He couldn't help but ask: "So what purification refers to...?"
But as soon as he finished speaking, he ran into that fierce look.
"Should I tell it or you tell it?!"
"...You tell it, you tell it..."
…
“I won’t talk anymore.”
After Shana said that, she really shut up and didn’t say anything, and just focused on dealing with the wound.
Milo feels that today is the best temper he has ever had, and he has not yet killed someone.
…
But just when Milo got used to the tranquility in the cabin, Aunt Shana started again.
"This is fate...a fate that cannot be escaped."
"The giant beast from the other side of the stars left behind this rootless bloodline and silently endured this curse."
"It's unfair... woo woo..."
"This world is inherently unfair, don't you think so?"
"Just like this long voyage, if I, the old woman, had not been there to take care of them all the way, the dozens of children would have never survived. But now the crew is saying that the presence of a woman like me on the ship has caused disaster and killed their brothers. It also attracted sea beasts."
"Hehehe...we are all hard-working people...child, you must survive..."
"You saved us, and so did Auntie. I will definitely make you come back to life.”
“Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuancyuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
...
Although this guy is somewhat neurotic and emotionally unstable, Milo looks at the knife in her hand as surprisingly stable and very skillful. He is a surgeon with superb skills.
In addition, it is not difficult to tell from her nonsense that the preface and the follower are irrelevant. This is a knowledgeable old woman. She has dabbled in the secrets of the Greek people, and she can even be said to know it well...
In view of the above factors, the former Lord Shadow can only help her patiently and diligently, as long as he can bring Freya back to life.
