He changed direction before hitting the target, and the sharp claws lifted off Heiyi's cloak, brushed against his dark red and black, scarred and twisted face, and penetrated deeply into the rock behind him.

"...he died to save the world he loved."

He stared into the dark blue eyes and told Heiyi word by word, "If you hadn't killed the other Scott, you might still have a chance to fight side by side with him in the final battle. If you could fight him

Have more trust, just like his consistent trust in you, you may not lose your relatives, friends and lovers, nor will you lose your hometown... Heiyi, your current results are just your own fault, don't take the mistakes you made

Blame it all on others!"

——Why does he think his eyes look like Ed's?

It was clearly a pool of stagnant water that had dried up and smelled bad.

He pulled out his hand, turned around and left the cave.

He couldn't stay in this place for a moment.

Even when Yis rushed over, Hei Yi did not move, and when he left, the black-robed mage still maintained his original posture.

He sat there, one hand still holding the meat-cutting knife tightly, his eyes dropped blankly, as the blood droplets condensed on the tip of the knife fell to the ground, until the unattended barbecue emitted bursts of black smoke and emitted an unpleasant smell.

Jiao smelled, and then he blinked violently as if frightened.

...like the smell of himself.

He dropped the knife, covered his face with his bloody hands, and laughed softly.

.

Not long after leaving the cave, it became dark.

The light curtain all over the sky began to flow and change again, and it was as gorgeous as a dream, but Yisi had no intention of admiring it.

His chest hurt, his shoulders hurt, and his head hurt. His stomach, which had not eaten even a few pieces of meat, was still protesting more strongly. His whole body was soft and heavy, making him wish he could stay in this shell. At least his soul could be free.

.

But he can't.

Finally, he sat on the ground exhausted, filled with anger and frustration.

He felt that Anklan might have made a mistake. He was actually not suitable for this task. He was irritable and impatient. He didn't know how to face a broken man who had been wandering in endless loneliness and regret for countless years.

Germany.

He knew he was deliberately irritating him... He could understand it, but he couldn't forgive it.

If Nalia was here, or even if Tess was here, there would probably be a way to find the softness that still exists in Heiyi's heart and convince him to give up those crazy ideas.

Yes, after knowing who the fugitive he wanted to capture was, he no longer took that "mission" to heart, even though the fifty-year vacation given to Ed was indeed quite attractive... But Ed

I probably don’t want the “holiday” I get in this way.

He just wants Heiyi to give up his crazy plans.

That guy has obviously lost his mind and has no bottom line at all. There will never be any good results if this continues, whether it is for himself or the hometown he has lost but refuses to let go no matter what...even if in a sense

Heiyi was not Ed, but thinking that Ed, that idiot, might also fall into such a situation, he couldn't ignore it.

No matter how many times Anklan warned him, he couldn't tell them apart.

So, what should he do?

He simply lay on the ground and looked at the sky. When he was almost drifting off to sleep, he heard a strange sound of tapping on the rocks.

A very regular sound, like... footsteps.

He retracted his fingers and rolled on the spot in the sudden gust of wind, avoiding the black shadow falling from the sky.

What came suddenly was a tiger-sized beast, just like the strange little animal he saw when he just woke up. The scales on its body looked like countless irregular crystals spliced ​​together, and there were bulges on its back.

The thorns extend all the way to the tail, which is somewhat similar to him...

...Bah! He's not that ugly!

The beast had a face like a crocodile and a surprisingly big mouth. Under the light of the sky, when it shook the crystals all over its body, the tiny sound and flickering light made Iss feel dizzy.

When he couldn't help but shake his head slightly, the beast pounced on him again, biting his neck with its open mouth.

Iss laughed angrily—does this kind of thing even dare to treat him as prey?!

But the fact is that he really doesn't have much strength at the moment.

He raised his hand and used his natural strength without thinking, but the wound on his right shoulder suddenly felt a sharp pain. The pain made his eyes black and he almost fell to the ground. He could only take advantage of the situation to hold down the beast's head and push down hard.

pressure.

Even in human form, the weight of his body was comparable to that of metal of the same size. The beast wailed under the weight, shrank back, and ran away quickly.

His speed is too slow.

Is realized this, but couldn't move any faster.

He staggered back. Reus's sword seemed to have sealed his innate magical power, and the wound on his shoulder also made his movements less sensitive... although it was very possible that he couldn't even defeat such a beast.

He had no intention of turning around and running away.

He looked around, looking for a favorable terrain, and drew his single-edged sword.

But the battle was over in the blink of an eye.

A wind blade passed behind him and easily cut open the beast's neck, and the smelly blood almost sprayed onto Is's feet.

He did not withdraw his sword.

Turning around and looking over, he saw a dark shadow floating in the alien wind and sand, like a lonely soul on the wasteland. The light flowing through the night sky printed a small spot of light in his one eye, as dying as a candle that was about to be extinguished.

The ground shook.

The heart that wanted to be cold and hardened, but failed to soften again.

The corpse of the beast floated, drifting towards the cave along with the black shadow that turned around silently. Is hesitated for a while, then sheathed his sword and followed slowly.

No matter why the other party saved him, the important thing is that he needs to recover from his injuries now - he doesn't want to die here inexplicably at all.

Back in the cave again, no one spoke again. They cooperated in silence, one person cut, the other roasted and ate, and went to bed after eating, not worrying at all that the other person would take the opportunity to do something to him, or disappear quietly without a trace.

, let him catch up for who knows how long.

...Anyway, there is no use worrying. He is too lazy to spend energy on useless things.

However, he woke up several times, and every time he could see the black-robed mage sitting by the fire - he didn't even seem to change his posture.

Isth threw a piece of gravel over, trying to make sure it was a living person and not an apparition left there to deceive him.

The stone stayed in mid-air, swaying from side to side like a disoriented beetle, before falling to the ground with a thud.

I don't know why, Is couldn't help but laugh.

It's not sarcasm, it's not anything else, it's just...very simple, I suddenly felt a little bit happy.

Especially when you see the real confusion on Hei Yi's face.

He suppressed a smile and turned away, falling asleep again.

However, his wounds did not gradually improve as time went by. Instead, they began to rot and smell.

The feeling of watching himself rotting was really terrible. Is tried to use his sword to cut off the layer of flesh and blood that was starting to rot, but was stopped by the black shadow.

"It's useless." He said, "That power has eroded your body. If you weren't a dragon... and still had the eternal fire, you would have turned into a pile of rotten meat."

Iss frowned in disgust - this is really a trick that Reus can use!

He stared at his wound, thinking about any way to fight against this power that brought about decay and decay. Heiyi was silent for a long time, and finally couldn't help but say: "You can... leave here."

Yisi rolled his eyes at him angrily: "Do you think I haven't thought about it?"

Even if he loses an opportunity, he doesn't want to play with his life. If he can leave, of course he will find a safer place to recuperate. Even if he doesn't go to Ankelan for help, he can return to his own timeline,

If the healing potion given by Arcee had any effect, then the priests should also be able to heal his wounds...

But he couldn't leave.

It was because he was not careful enough. When fighting Leos, the ring that could open the space-time channel was destroyed by black fire, and the sword that Leos cut sealed his magic power. He

He couldn't even enter the "Garden" or open the teleportation array leading to Yuanzhi Valley. Now that his vitality was slowly being devoured, even the harsh weather on this planet was gradually becoming unbearable for him, and he began to have a weak fever.

He could still contact Ankelan...but if there was another way, he didn't want that guy to see him in such a mess.

And, if Heiyi hasn't left yet, he doesn't want to leave either.

Maybe...he still has a small chance?

"...I have lost my healing power." Heiyi looked at him, as if he wanted to confirm something, "I can't save you."

"I know." Iss rolled his eyes impatiently.

Even though this guy clearly admitted that he wanted him to die in Leo's hands, he was still inexplicably determined that if he could save him, he would not fail to save him.

Even if he really wanted him to die, he would never just watch him die slowly - no matter how crazy Ed was, he would never have such perverted interest.

His idea was that simple, but he didn't know if the black shadow was caused by his own overthinking. There seemed to be a faint light in his dark blue eyes.
