Chapter 106 Candidates (4)
“We found the road to Graycliff Town and kept walking, but the forest is as evil as the creatures that live in it. The trees will change our direction and tempt us. And prevent us from finding a way out. The mountain black wolves block our way like bushes. They will keep stopping and slowing us down until the wolves succeed. The only way is to hold on and keep going down. ”
Bahram glanced at the wound on his arm and shook his head.
“But even so, the wolves will still catch you.”
“Wolves are really not a good thing.”
Hao Mo suddenly spoke, and deep fear could be seen in his eyes.
"Old people often say that they are predators and they devour everything."
For the first time, Soshyan paid attention to this boy who looked very naughty.
"Are you afraid of scavenging vultures?"
Hearing Soshiyang asked himself, Haomo shook excitedly, and then shook his head.
"I'm not afraid, but they are ugly, and their pecks hurt people."
"What about Glocks (the most common meat animals in the empire, shaped like carnivorous dinosaurs)?"
"They It’s also dangerous.”
The boy nodded.
“But you’re not afraid of them?”
"I will be careful if I meet you."
"Are you afraid of Gila monsters?"
"No."
"Why."
" Because they are all animals.”
The boy said, moving a little, they had been standing for some time.
“What?”
“The ones you just mentioned, the scavenging vultures, Grox, and the like, I think they are all animals, and some of them are very dangerous...I I don’t like spiders, and scorpions, especially the big red ones, but I’m not afraid of them.”
“Aren’t you afraid?”
“I caught a big red scorpion. Just put it in a glass bottle in a locker. I’m not afraid of it, but I’m afraid of wolves because they’re not animals.”
"Oh? What are they?"
The boy frowned, as if he couldn't decide how to describe it appropriately.
"They are...how to say, they are ghosts and the like, they are evil spirits, just like the old people said."
"You mean, they are Supernatural?”
“Yes, they only know how to destroy and devour, because that is their nature, their only nature...and they can become both wolves and humans. It looks like walking upright.”
Soshyan looked at him, nodded thoughtfully, and said:
"You may have a chance to see them."
"What?"
"A wild wolf that walks upright."
Then he turned to Bahram and motioned for the other person to continue. By this time, the Thunderhawk had been landing for a while, and the warriors were waiting for their Chapter Master.
"I had already spent two sunsets when they entangled us."
Bahram recalled the scene with a gasp.
"There are two of them, one pure black and one dark gray. They are huge, full of scars and roaring. I know that I can't avoid them, and I can't shake them off."
Soshiyang turned his attention to the other two people, and they quickly waved their hands and said:
"We are also dealing with one end each!"
Soshyan turned his attention back to Bahram.
“So, if you couldn’t escape or hide, what did you do?”
“I stood there.”
Bahram whispered:
"Hold my dagger and gun in a defensive stance and wait for them to come to me."
Then he took a deep breath, as if that bloody moment had happened not long ago. "They closed their mouths and growled low. They tried to let me run away, but I wouldn't do it. I shouted to them until our voices became hoarse. This made the black wolf become cautious and started to keep a distance from me. , but the gray wolf was angered by me, and it rushed towards me. I fired all the bullets in the gun, but it still knocked me to the ground before it died."
He placed his right hand flat on his left chest, touching his bones and almost touching his throat.
“The black wolf saw that I was knocked down, so it left and rushed up. It bit me and tried to shake my head, intending to throw me to death or tear me apart.”
Said,
He pulled out the dagger.
“But I also had my teeth to use, so I stabbed back, and the cry it made seemed to shout out all the pain at once. Although it caused more damage to me, it Still escaped from me."
Recalling that scene, the boy shook his head.
“I don’t know how I did it, but I stood up again, and it looked at me first, and then at the wolves.”
“They didn’t roar or growl, Just looking at me, the blood on the gray end was flowing to the ground, like a stream, but I was not much better."
"This is their nature."
Soshiyan said with approval:
"They are afraid of more costs."
"That's right."
The boy responded with uncontrollable exhaustion:
"Perhaps that was enough, because as I stepped forward the wolves turned and scurried away, and after that we continued moving east... All I remember is walking and bleeding, and the wolf's fangs opened a hole in me. It’s so hard for me to breathe.”
He opened the collar of his coat, revealing the horrific wound. The torn flesh hung on the edge of the wound, and the scarlet flesh had begun to fester.
Soshyan knows what it feels like, as does a gunshot wound or serious trauma.
He couldn't help but recall the past. When he was injured for the first time after serving in the service, he struggled for the air around him, and the punctured lung made a gasping sound from the hole
He still remembers it.
"But you still got here."
The boy was indeed tenacious, and Soshyan ticked more and more boxes on him.
"Although the sun has dropped very low, it has not yet sunk into the earth."
He paused, and his eyes softened unknowingly.
“You did not miss the registration time.”
"Great!"
Vayou and Haomo hugged each other and jumped up, but Bahram couldn't say a word. He almost fainted because of pain and hunger.
“But.”
Soshiyang looked at the two people.
“This time does not belong to you.”
"Ah!?"
"Why!"
Haomo pushed Vayu away, walked quickly to Soshiyang, and asked loudly and unwillingly:
"Obviously we came with him! Without our climbing equipment, he wouldn't even be able to get up! Why only him!"
But Astarte just stared at him indifferently without any response. .
"I'm not convinced! This is unfair!"
Soshyan glanced at Bahram, who was already swaying, and then said to the guard who was still kneeling on the ground:
"Take him Take it to the Thunder Eagle."
"Yes, sir."
After the two guards helped Bahram walk towards the Thunder Eagle, Soshyan looked at Haomo calmly. said:
"Since you are so insistent, then I will give you another chance and a quota. Whoever can kill the other two of you will have this quota."
For a moment, both boys were stunned. .
