Severely injured black python
Anita looked at the inscription on the relief:
"The Fertility Goddess bestowed fruit upon the beastmen. Children born under her blessing possessed powerful spiritual power. Then, the Fertility Goddess disappeared, and the fruit bestowed upon the female became the Spirit Tree of Life."
But the power of the Tree of Life is ultimately limited, and thus, the fertility rate in the orc world began to decline.
Many females go through their entire lives without ever giving birth to offspring.
The spirit deer tilted its head, blinked its big watery eyes, and looked at Anrita with an innocent face.
Anita pondered for a moment, put down the vine, stopped looking at the relief, turned around and continued walking into the castle.
However, as soon as she entered the door, Anrita seemed to see something.
He suddenly stopped and turned around to look. At the entrance of the castle, on a high platform made of gold, there was a transparent crystal ball.
Anita's heart moved. She walked to the crystal ball and slowly reached out to touch it: "What is this? Whose crystal ball is this?"
The moment the fingertips touched the crystal ball, the sphere suddenly flashed and a picture appeared!
In the picture, a giant black python is fighting fiercely with a huge white tiger in the dark forest!
The white tiger is huge, even bigger than Walua, who is in tiger form.
Valua is now S-level. Generally speaking, the size of an orc's beast form is directly related to the strength of its mental power.
Valua's beast form is among the strongest among the orcs.
But at this moment, Anita actually saw in the crystal ball that the white tiger's beast form was twice as big as Valua's!
Anrita exclaimed, "It's Cody! That's Cody in his animal form!"
Obviously, the black python was no match for the white tiger, but relying on its animal form advantage, it managed to fight with the white tiger for a while.
But soon, the black python was knocked to the ground by the white tiger, and then the white tiger bit the python's belly with its sharp teeth.
The giant python began to struggle frantically, blood gushed out from its wound, and the ground was filled with blood.
Anrita's face turned pale instantly: "No! If this goes on, Cody will die!"
She turned to look at the spirit deer: "You know the way, right? Take me there! I want to save Cody."
Having said that, Anita picked up the crystal ball and ran out. She was so hurried that she didn't even have time to pay attention to the castle that made her feel familiar.
Linglu: Why did Shui Lingling take away the crystal ball?
The spirit deer looked at the castle, then looked at Anita who was running out quickly with the crystal ball in her arms, then turned around abruptly and ran towards Anita. As it got closer, the deer's size suddenly changed.
It instantly transformed into a huge adult stag, carrying Anritsu and galloping through the mountains and forests.
It passed the Tree of Life and ran to the edge of the cliff where Anrita had previously overlooked the sea of clouds. It jumped and leaped towards the sea of clouds.
Anita: “!!!”
Anita was startled. She held the crystal ball tightly in one hand, raised the other hand to cover her eyes, and lay on the stag's back.
The man and the deer instantly disappeared into the sea of clouds.
The sturdy spirit deer carried Anita on its back and walked into the dark and humid jungle.
Only then did Anrita realize that she had come to the legendary dark forest.
Just as Anthony said, the place is full of towering trees with intertwined branches and leaves, and is shrouded in thick white fog all year round.
Just now the sky was clear on the cliff, but now it was as dark as night. Although it was not so dark that you couldn't see your hand in front of you, it was difficult to make out details.
Anita lay on the back of the spirit deer, holding the crystal ball tightly in her hands. She looked at the black python inside the ball that was cornered by the white tiger and urged it urgently, "Little deer, little deer, faster! Cody can't hold on any longer!"
She was afraid that if she was a step late, Cody would be killed.
The spirit deer understood the call, and its four hooves flew, leaping lightly in the misty forest, accurately avoiding the thick tree trunks and dense bushes.
All that was in front of Anrita was blurry, and she could only place her hope on the spirit deer, hoping that it could lead her to find Cody.
On the other hand, Cody is indeed at his limit.
He and Valua led a team to support Gal. Initially, they only operated on the edge of the forest, and the local guides had no intention of going deeper.
However, when they were about to meet, they were suddenly attacked by the Dark Forest Tribe. The other party used some unknown secret technique to make the two teams step into the depths of the jungle without realizing it.
As soon as he entered the forest, Cody was separated from the main group.
In the thick fog, all electronic equipment failed. He didn't know whether his companions were also lost, so he could only wander alone.
A few days later, he encountered the giant white tiger.
Although they were both male orcs, the other party was full of murderous intent towards him.
Before Cody could react, he was dragged into a death fight.
The spirit deer was galloping in the forest when it suddenly heard the roar of wild beasts and the shaking of the earth not far away.
Anita's eyes lit up, and she grabbed the deer's branch-like antlers: "Over there! Speed up!"
The deer raised its slender neck and uttered a clear and loud cry.
The sound penetrated the heavy fog, as ethereal as the sound of nature, startling the hiding small animals and causing them to flee.
The spirit deer remained unmoved, moving lightly through the woods, its snow-white figure looming in the fog.
When they reached an open area, Anrita finally saw the black python.
The huge body lay on the ground, scars crisscrossing each other, and blood soaked into the soil, staining it dark red.
The black python's breath was weak, with only occasional twitching showing any sign of life.
The white tiger, which had been so majestic just now, fled in panic after hearing the deer's cry and disappeared in the fog in an instant.
Although Anrita felt something was wrong, she had no time to investigate further.
She quickly jumped off the deer's back, put the crystal ball into her storage bracelet, and ran to the black python: "Cody? Cody! It's me!"
The black python was covered in wounds, but fortunately, despite the severe external injuries, its spiritual sea had not yet collapsed.
Hearing Anrita's voice, he actually forced himself to use the last bit of his mental strength to transform into a human form.
He thought to himself with self-mockery, this is the Dark Forest, how could the Saint come here?
The people in front of me and the sounds in my ears must be near-death hallucinations.
But even if it was an illusion, he didn't want to show his ugly animal form to others.
He hated his python body and felt so inferior that he almost hated it. How could he dare let the person he loved see him like this?
Looking at the unconscious Cody, Anrita was anxious.
The claw marks on his body were so deep that the bones were visible, and the bite marks on his shoulders and abdomen were bloody.
Trembling, she took out bandages, adhesives, and hemostatics from the storage ring, and quickly cleaned the wound, applied the medicine, and bandaged it.
After a busy period, Cody almost became a "bandaged dumpling", with his limbs and torso wrapped tightly.
She was about to take the next step when she suddenly froze.
The tips of my ears felt hot, and my cheeks felt hot in embarrassment.
Cody was only wearing trousers, which were now badly torn.
Anita took out a white towel and wrapped it around his waist.
The details she caught inadvertently made her stunned: Unlike other partners, Cody's... seemed to be a little different in structure?
Anrita was curious, so she couldn't help but take a few more glances at Cody as she tied the towel tightly around him.
This sight made her stunned!
As Anrita tied the towel tightly, her eyes widened and even her lips parted slightly.
