Chapter 409 Breaking with the Duke! (Part 2)
The blood in Yu Zhizhi’s palm spread drop by drop on the blade of the sword, like a red mark.
The wild dog looked at her slightly shrinking shoulders, thinking of how timid a rabbit she was originally, and how determined she was now to escape the Duke's control forever.
Want to be free.
The wind gradually picked up on the sea, and the thick white fog showed signs of dissipating soon.
A glimmer of hope arose in Yu Zhizhi's heart——
Is the Duke leaving?
She couldn't help but look towards the sea in the distance, surrounded by clouds and mist. She saw the long dark purple shadow, and his facial features that were half covered by the fog.
In the Duke's golden vertical pupils, there were emotions that she couldn't see through.
He saw the red blood of the little rabbit stained on the sword blade. Every word she just said was replayed in my mind.
It seemed like if he took another step closer, the little rabbit would hit the sword with his eyes closed and blood would be splashed three feet away.
The first time the Duke saw her being so "tough", she actually wanted to...
Leave him.
The Duke thought of the scene they had together before. The little female was sitting softly in his arms, her eyes bright, her cheeks red, and her snow-white rabbit ears addictive to the touch.
Thinking of every expression of hers and every moment with her.
...Why can't you stay with him forever?
She is going somewhere far away.
Where he can't go.
The Duke can still take her back by force, but if an irreversible situation is really caused...
Every drop of blood flowing from her palms seems to have pierced his heart.
The Duke's heart throbbed, and he slowly closed his eyes: "Before I regret it...take your dog and get out."
It was as if the ship, which was imprisoned in the fog, was finally able to move on.
Yu Zhizhi stared blankly at the Duke in the mist, and he let him go...
Her hands slowly left the sword blade. Although her palms hurt, there was an uncontrollable joy in her heart. .
The ship sailed toward the distance, gradually breaking through the fog.
Yu Zhizhi stood up slowly, looking at the foggy area getting further and further away, and at the figure hidden in the illusion.
She almost forgot about the pain...
In the end, the clouds and fog on the sea became extremely distant.
The little octopus playing on the bottom of the sea rushed up to the deck with a crash. It seemed that it had no idea what had just happened. As soon as it came up, it found that the young knight and the little rabbit were injured!
It widened its eyes: "What's wrong with this?"
Yu Zhizhi squatted on the ground and bandaged her palms.
The other knights on the ship gradually rushed to the deck. Just before, they felt inexplicably sleepy and fell asleep for a long time.
Is it affected by the foggy zone?
"Captain! You are injured——"
The knights gathered around.
Dingo leaned against the sail pole, his body breaking out in cold sweat.
Yu Zhizhi could also use her mental power. She treated him with healing skills and asked the knights to take him back to the room.
The little octopus found that her eyes were red, as if she had been crying for a long time.
It is confused.
I just went to the sea to play for a while. Did something just happen? Are they under siege? Otherwise, why would the knight be so seriously injured?
Yu Zhizhi looked down at her bandaged wound and murmured: "Just now... the Duke is here."
The little octopus suddenly looked around: "Where is it?"
"It should be. "Already left."
"Does the Duke want to take you back?" the little octopus asked curiously.
Yu Zhizhi nodded slightly: "I refuse."
She looked at the little red octopus. She had so many things to say that she didn't know who to say. Maybe the little octopus was the only listener. "Although we were able to reach the territory successfully, I still feel a little sad."
"Why?"
"I don't know."
Maybe facing the unknown future, you feel a little confused, a little scared, a little tired, and a little overwhelmed.
It's also possible that it's just because...
She is homesick.
Yu Zhizhi sat on the ground, the sea breeze blew the tears on her face, she wiped them with the back of her hand, as if she wanted to hide her eyes and ears, she turned into an animal shape and hid under the pole.
The little octopus slowly approaches.
It thought for a while and suddenly wrapped its tentacles around the little rabbit's body: "Let's go, I will take you up!"
Before Yu Zhizhi could react, she was quickly dragged up by the little octopus and climbed up to the watchtower.
There is a small room here, where people usually observe the sea in the distance.
Yu Zhizhi moved her body and hid under the window sill.
There is an inexplicable sense of security.
Her rabbit paw was still wrapped with white gauze, soaked with a little blood.
The little octopus also got in.
It can detect that Tutu is in a bad mood.
He didn’t say any more, but wanted her to have a good rest.
Maybe small animals like to hide when they are sad. This watchtower is perfect for that.
The rest of the voyage went smoothly without any crisis.
The flags of the Knights Alliance were all flying on the four ships. Even pirates who had original thoughts would subconsciously avoid them.
Yu Zhizhi heals wild dogs every day.
He was unconscious on the ship for more than half a month and gradually woke up. During this period, Yu Zhizhi tried to heal the scars on his face, but found that the effect was minimal.
This may take time.
After more than twenty days of sailing, they finally arrived at their destination.
This is a small island surrounded by the sea.
In the sea not far away, there are dangerous sea whirlpools, which can form a natural defense for the territory.
The four sea ships gradually stopped.
The dark and lonely island finally had fire.
Yu Zhizhi followed the wild dog with an oil lamp in her hand. In addition to the knights, there were also twenty guards given to her by Spider, and they all followed Yu Zhizhi dutifully.
The little octopus walked and looked around. It seemed like a desert island, with dead trees everywhere and the crows of crows could always be heard.
Yu Zhizhi has seen the topographic map of the island many times on the system page. She slowly found her only "developed" area, a small castle hidden deep in the woods.
This was what she redeemed with points at that time.
The White Castle became the only place to stay in this abandoned territory. Perhaps because the exchange took a long time, its facade looked dirty and covered with dead branches.
“This is it.” Yu Zhizhi said softly.
The wild dog looked up at the small castle, and he turned back: "Please tidy it up."
"Yes!"
The knight team immediately entered the castle and started cleaning.
Many of them used spiritual magic, and they cleaned up extremely quickly.
The remaining people from the Knight Alliance began to camp tents aside.
"Miss Zhizhi, we will build a few more houses tomorrow so that no matter how many guards are recruited, they can all be accommodated."
Due to the talent of the construction department on the beast world, many houses will be made with spiritual magic. Sold as cards.
This is simple and convenient.
