Firefly Journey

Chapter 213 Winter in Nakas (2)

The person moved extremely fast, leaving afterimages behind them.

The giant rhinoceros was huge and obviously not very agile. The man took advantage of this, attacked from behind, and then leaped up and stepped onto its back.

The giant beast was furious but helpless. Finally, unable to bear the humiliation any longer, it began to run through the sea of ​​grass.

Suddenly, a deafening roar resounded, the earth trembled, and countless specks of dust flew up, much of which landed in front of Lin Yuanran.

The speed at which the giant beast ran, coupled with the trembling of its back, made the man lose his balance, forcing him to retreat.

However, he did not give up and immediately launched another attack.

On his handsome face, his dark eyes suddenly changed color, the ink-black color was replaced by pure white, and from a distance, it looked as if he had no eyes at all!

In the instant its pupils became empty, a powerful surge of magical energy erupted from its eye sockets, appearing immense and heading straight for the giant beast's face.

The giant rhinoceros turned its head, already furious. "Damn human, how dare you provoke me?!"

Fine, if you like to die, then I'll grant your wish!

The man's divine attack was easily neutralized by the rhinoceros, which then launched a counterattack, its four legs pounding as it appeared before the man in the blink of an eye.

Caught off guard, the man was caught off guard by the beast's swift movements and his arm was struck by its sharp horn.

Blood flew through the air!

The man screamed, clutching his wound with his uninjured hand, and suddenly retreated.

The giant beast still wanted to finish them off, but the man was incredibly agile and disappeared into the bushes.

Lin Yuanran had just watched a good show and was about to get away from the giant beast with Wendy when, unexpectedly, he heard hurried footsteps coming from the bushes in front of them.

No way? Bro, you're running this way to save your life?

Lin Yuanran quickly glanced at the giant beast; thankfully, it didn't chase after them.

call!

The person's figure arrived in an instant, and Lin Yuanran didn't even have time to dodge; the two collided head-on.

The man was injured and looked very wary, as if he was about to start a fight or run away at any moment.

Lin Yuanran was unsure of the situation. But judging from this person's performance just now, he was definitely not to be underestimated. Someone who could escape from a demigod-level magical beast was no ordinary person.

"You have quite the nerve, sir, to actually dare to attack that demigod beast." Lin Yuanran began by flattering him.

The man looked astonished: "Huh? It's a demigod beast?"

"Huh?" Lin Yuanran was also stunned. No, judging from its physique and the fluctuations of its magical power, it's quite obvious, isn't it? What, can't you see it?

That person clearly hadn't realized it, otherwise they wouldn't have attacked him.

“Uh… our teachers in ‘Floating City’ don’t teach this. I thought it was just a larger magical beast…” the man said.

Lin Yuanran was speechless. "If I say you're weak, you managed to fight it and escape unscathed. If I say you're strong, you don't even have the most basic ability to discern! You're quite an oddball."

Lin Yuanran looked at his bleeding arm: "Should we put some medicine on it first?"

The man belatedly said, "Okay."

Their gazes met in mid-air, then froze.

No, I'm just being polite. I don't have any medicine.

The man was thinking to himself, "Where's your medicine? Why aren't you taking it out yet? My hand hurts so much!"

The two remained awkwardly waiting for almost a minute when Wendy walked over and said, "This is our Mechanical Wings' healing medicine. If you don't mind, I can share some with you..."

"Perfect!"

After applying the medicine, the man became quite familiar with the place and introduced himself: "My name is Xia Zuo, I'm from the Floating City, and what about you?"

This guy is brave but seems a bit dim-witted.

Xia Zuo?

Lin Yuanran had a vague recollection of it; it seemed to be from the Floating City.

He nodded: "I'm from St. Louis, and she is..."

Since the other party introduced themselves first, Lin Yuanran saw no need to hide anything, and since he wasn't using a mask to disguise himself, he directly revealed his identity.

"So you're a friend from St. Louis Academy, haha!" Xia Zuo said casually.

Lin Yuanran was still wary of him and asked, "Are you alone?"

He dared to go head-to-head with that monster, which shows he has some strength. Teaming up with him would be a good option.

Of course, unlike Wendy and Finney, he was completely unknown to Lin Yuanran, so Lin Yuanran remained vigilant.

"No," Xia Zuo said. "I have classmates waiting for me to go back. I came out to find food."

Do you have accomplices?

Lin Yuanran was a little disappointed; a combatant who seemed to have a mental disability had vanished without a trace.

"Did you find it?" Lin Yuanran asked.

"No," Xia Zuo said, distressed. "I was just about to hunt that rhinoceros when I got injured."

Lin Yuanran thought to himself, "You're really something. How did you come up with the idea of ​​going head-to-head with a demigod-level magical beast?"

At this moment, Lin Yuanran had a sudden inspiration and said, "It's just food, I have plenty here. If you don't mind, I can give you some."

Xia Zuo's eyes lit up, and he quickly asked, "Really?"

Lin Yuanran smiled and told him to turn around. When he turned back, there were many pieces of beast meat on the ground, which looked fresh and delicious.

"How many companions do you have? Is it enough to share?" Lin Yuanran asked, trying to get information out of him.

The other party offered to treat his injuries for free, and the oblivious Xia Zuo didn't consider the two as enemies at all, answering without hesitation:

"There are four of us in total, including me, and they're all waiting for me to bring food back."

"This food looks plentiful, but it won't last long." Lin Yuanran changed the subject: "Actually, I've been lingering around here because I'm interested in that giant beast. I just happened to meet someone like you, so why don't we... plan it together?"

Originally, Lin Yuanran would never have dared to have any ideas about the rhinoceros, but Xia Zuo's appearance made him think it was worth a try.

Don't waste the migrant workers who come knocking on your door...

If the people of the Floating City are strong enough, and with his and Wendy's methods, they might be able to shake off a demigod-level magical beast.

If they are lucky enough to succeed and finally subdue the giant rhinoceros, Lin Yuanran is not an unethical person; he will simply divide the spoils equally.

However, it's highly unlikely that they can take it down. After all, that giant rhinoceros is at least a demigod in strength, and it's wishful thinking for a group of second-level awakeners to take it down.

But anyway, why not give it a try?

After he explained his idea, Xia Zuo agreed without hesitation.

"Alright! Let's kill it together!"

His tone was still agitated. There was nothing he could do; that monster had stabbed him, and a gentleman doesn't leave a grudge unavenged—he wanted the monster dead!

"So easy to fool..." Lin Yuanran was overjoyed. Without further ado, he said, "Then let's hurry up and see your companions, don't let them go hungry!"

Xia Zuo was deeply moved. There are still many good people in the world. Look, a friend he just met is so loyal.

Lin Yuanran's idea was that people need to be well-fed to have the energy to work. Otherwise, how would you fight Warcraft?
