The girl listened to the sound behind her getting closer and closer, and desperately dragged her tired body to run, but she knew that every move was in vain.
The fear of death enveloped her. Perhaps in the next second, the monster's claws would tear apart her and her brother's bodies.
God! Please, save us!
At the last moment when she was at her wit's end, she could only humbly pray for a miracle.
puff!
The sound came from behind her. She turned her head and looked behind her with her peripheral vision. The scene in front of her made her mind go blank.
The miracle didn't happen...
A large bird flew past her, and the strong wind blew up her hat, revealing her untidy hair that she tried hard to cover, and her strange pair of ears.
The brother who was standing behind her fell to the ground with a thud. The bird's claws grazed his neck, tearing off a piece of flesh from his face. He clutched his neck tightly, shouting incoherently,
"Walk……"
"elder brother!!!"
Seeing her once handsome brother lying in front of her covered in blood, the girl let out a miserable scream. She collapsed to the ground and crawled in front of him trembling.
"Brother! I'm the one who hurt you! It's all my fault, don't die, I deserve to die!!!"
And the cruel bird calls behind her sounded again...
…
In the woods beside the road not far away, a motorcycle hid behind a tree and watched the whole process.
"Aren't you going to save people?"
The shadows of the woods twisted imperceptibly, and Fang Ming's voice sounded beside it.
"Do I look like a very helpful person?"
"Isn't it?" Archie's electronic voice was full of confusion.
"I'm sorry to be misunderstood by you. I have always been known for being selfish and self-centered."
"But I know you are ready to take action. Does this mean that you are deceiving yourself, my master?"
AI's words were really hurtful. Fang Ming thought about it and explained:
"We followed the big bird all the way. It was in the sky and I couldn't do anything about it. We set up two baits here. When it comes down to hunt, that will be the best time to take action."
"Then why didn't you do it just now?" Archie's face flashed with a dim blue light. It was necessary to understand the master's point of view.
"I wanted to wait until those two people were dead before I took action. This way I could prove to you my selfish determination."
"Perhaps I am responsible for the deaths of those two people? I am sorry, Master, you don't need to ask me to prove anything."
"It's okay Archie, I changed my mind."
"Why?"
"Didn't you see it? Those are animal ears." Fang Ming gave up his insistence as a matter of course.
"Humans are really strange. Maybe you should act faster."
"I'm thinking of a suitable way to make an appearance. After all, the plot of a hero saving a beautiful girl is too old-fashioned. It's so old-fashioned that it makes me feel a little disgusted."
"Have you thought of that?"
Under the scorching sun, every tree cast its own reflection, and the next second, every tree shadow began to change dramatically. They blended and twisted with each other, melting into a huge black curtain, covering the bird and two people on the road.
Fang Ming walked out from the shadows and jumped onto the spirit sword.
"It's a shame, Archie, that the big bird didn't give me much time to think about the script."
"So if you want to accuse me of being old-fashioned, I have nothing to say."
The motorcycle also started its engine. "I don't understand your human definition of old-fashioned and new, but you are my master, and you are always right."
Fang Ming smiled and flew away on his sword.
