Chapter 98 Strange Black Air
These black airs give people the feeling of living things, like a black octopus wrapped around his arms and rolling non-stop.
Ryan has never seen such a strange thing.
But thinking carefully, it seems to be somewhat similar to the green light emitted by the wooden amulet.
"Some kind of evil mysterious side energy?" Ryan was puzzled.
"But how is this possible? Didn't the barbarian team go to eliminate the ogres?"
When the barbarian bounty hunter team entered the town of Shimmering Gold, the barbarian captain Harald, nicknamed "Giant", was unusually tall and mighty. If you want to hurt the shield girl, you must first get past him, right?
"Now the shield girl is lying here without knowing whether she is dead or alive. Could it be that the ogre is so fierce and knows witchcraft?" Ryan thought about it and felt that this matter should not be so simple. At the same time, he suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart.
"But no matter what, let's see if the other party can be saved first."
Ryan immediately stepped forward and checked carefully.
He first slowly turned her over and laid her flat on her back.
The girl looked painful, her brows were furrowed, and blood was oozing from the corners of her mouth, as if she had suffered some kind of internal injury.
The headband on her forehead was gone, and her light yellow hair was hanging down in a mess, stained with a lot of blood and sweat, and the hair became clumps, sticking to her forehead and cheeks.
Ryan put two fingers on the other's white neck artery, felt it for a while, and nodded.
"There is a pulse, and a weak breath. Fortunately, it seems that she is not dead yet, so there is hope." Ryan breathed a sigh of relief. He might not have had a way before, but since Anna could control the magical green light.
He felt that as long as the shield girl was not dead, Anna should be able to be cured slowly.
But this black gas
seemed a bit tricky, which made the treatment mixed with some uncertainty.
At this time, the greyhound puppy 'Cookie' on the side suddenly barked wildly at Ryan's back.
The danger perception also reacted, and Ryan immediately put down the shield girl and turned to look.
I saw several pairs of green eyes approaching slowly from the depths of the forest.
"It's a timber wolf!" Ryan quickly saw the other party's figure with his dark vision. There were seven or eight timber wolves with brown-gray hair, gradually surrounding him.
The physique of these timber wolves was even larger than the North American brown wolves Ryan had seen in his previous life. Basically, the combat effectiveness of a timber wolf was not less than that of an adult man holding a pitchfork.
"Whimsel~"
'Cookie' was obviously a little panicked and scared, and shrank towards Ryan's feet.
At this time, the wolf pack slowly surrounded him.
It seemed that they found the enemy in front of them very "weak", and the calf-sized leader of the wolf let out a low roar, which directly triggered a wave of attack.
The two or three-meter-long brown-gray wolf shadow rushed straight to Ryan like a flash of lightning.
"Power burst!"
Ryan's whole body suddenly jumped up 20 to 30 centimeters, his muscles were knotted and veins were bulging.
Then, a silver arc flashed from bottom to top, suddenly tearing open the lower abdomen of the leader wolf.
"Shua!"
The sound of flesh being cut rang out.
"Ah~~~"
The wolf leader howled, and in midair, the two or three hundred pound wolf body was still twitching, but blood and many organs had already come out of the wolf's belly!
The next second, it fell heavily to the ground, and was directly disemboweled by Ryan's sword.
This immediately frightened the other wolves in the charge, and they all turned their heads to avoid Ryan, the "murderer"!
Ryan kicked the body of the leader back to the hungry wolf pack with a heavy kick.
Looking at the powerful Ryan, the group of wolves whimpered and retreated.
At this time, "Cookie" seemed to sense the power of his master and also noticed the enemy's shrinking.
Immediately, it trotted forward and barked at a group of wolves that were at least two times bigger than it.
"Woof woof woof!"
It perfectly explained what it means to rely on the power of others.
Ryan quickly picked up the barbarian girl on the ground, picked up the battle axe and the broken shield beside him, and turned to leave.
Saving people is important!
This is why Ryan chose to use the skill of "Power Burst" to kill the other wolf leader in seconds, so as to make a quick decision.
After Ryan left, the group of forest wolves quickly surrounded the still twitching corpse of the wolf leader and began to feast on it.
They didn't mind that it was the corpse of their own kind.
"Filling the stomach" is the most important thing for them.
As soon as they entered the house, they saw Ryan holding a woman covered in blood, which scared his mother Emma on the spot.
"Anna, go and prepare. Mother, this is all wolf blood."
The shocked Anna immediately understood and ran upstairs quickly.
She knew what Ryan meant, that he wanted her to prepare to use the magical amulet to save people.
"What is this?"
"Mom, I found her lying on the side of the road when I was walking the dog, so I rescued her." Ryan explained.
This made mother Emma feel relieved. She said, "We should go find a doctor, right?"
"It shouldn't be a big problem. I'll take her upstairs and let Anna take a look at her first." Ryan didn't say much, and went upstairs with the barbarian girl in his arms.
Mother Emma was stunned when she heard this.
"Let Anna take a look at her?"
"When did Anna learn to treat?"
"Is Anna a doctor?"
"Why have I never heard her talk about it?"
After Ryan gently put the tall and graceful barbarian girl on the bed.
At this time, Anna, who had been waiting on the side, slowly walked forward, but Ryan stretched out his hand to stop Anna who wanted to start treatment immediately, pointing to the black air on the barbarian girl's left arm and said:
"Anna, be careful, that black air seems very strange."
"If it doesn't work, don't force it."
Ryan's caring words made Anna's cheeks blush. She nodded obediently and hummed heavily.
Then, Anna held the amulet with both hands, closed her eyes, and concentrated her mind on the wooden amulet. Soon
, a ball of rich green light appeared in Anna's palm.
Under Anna's control, this soft and rich green light quickly fell on the barbarian girl.
In an instant, the girl's whole body was full of green light!
No, only the left hand that originally held the shield was still emitting a faint black air at this moment.
At this time, the black gas seemed to know that the green light wanted to expel it, and was fighting desperately with the green energy controlled by Anna.
However, the green energy with Anna's continuous support seemed to be stronger than the black gas.
Soon, the green light suppressed the black gas and retreated all the way from the girl's left forearm to the palm.
But at this time, Ryan found that Anna's forehead had begun to sweat.
Obviously, such an operation was also extremely exhausting for Anna.
Just when Ryan was considering whether to persuade Anna to stop and rest first, the green light suddenly bloomed further, and the black gas was directly forced out of the shield girl's left hand and dissipated in the air in an instant.
However, there seemed to be a faint smell of fishy and decayed smell in the air.
It was like the smell of an old house that had not been lived in for more than ten years, and it was suddenly opened one day, and it hit the face.
At this time, Anna's thin body shook, and her originally ruddy face showed a weak paleness. Ryan immediately helped Anna sit down beside the bed.
"Anna, you are too reluctant! Why don't you do it twice?"
"No, Ryan, I can feel that the black gas is terrible. If I stop, the black gas will revive and occupy her arm again."
"If I do it again, all my previous efforts will be wasted. So, I have to do it in one go." Anna shook her head and looked into Ryan's eyes and explained seriously, with a hint of stubbornness that was not easy to detect.
"Hmm?" So that's the case, Ryan nodded.
When Ryan looked at the barbarian girl again, he found that her originally frowned brows had been relaxed at this time, and her long eyelashes trembled slightly. From the perspective of her face, it seemed that she was much better than before the treatment.
After thinking for a while, Ryan turned to Anna and said, "Anna, you go and have a good rest first, I'll take care of you here."
"Hmm." Anna nodded obediently, and with Ryan's support, she returned to the room next to her to rest.
Her condition was not very good now. The treatment just now consumed too much of her energy. At this moment, Anna felt dizzy and she urgently needed a good sleep.
Ryan didn't have to wait too long.
After the treatment, the barbarian girl slowly woke up after about half an hour.
With a delicate hum, the barbarian girl opened her confused eyes.
"Are you awake?" Ryan whispered.
The girl trembled all over, slowly turned her head to look at Ryan, and said, "Awake?"
The girl's eyes gradually regained clarity, but the next second, she seemed to remember something, and she couldn't help but curl up her body, hugged her knees with both hands, and sobbed softly on the bed.
This situation immediately stunned Ryan.
But soon, he realized that it was very likely that someone else in her team had an accident.
"Um. Can you tell me about your experience?"
"I remember that day, you came to the town of Shining Gold as a whole team." Ryan considered the words and said slowly.
The girl continued to sob for a while before slowly asking, "Is this...Golden Town?"
"Yes, this is Golden Town. You are safe here now. By the way, can you tell me your name? My name is Ryan." Ryan was delighted. It was good to be able to communicate.
"My name is Lagre, from the barbarian tribe of the northern empire's windy tundra."
"Thank you for saving me!" The girl raised her head and looked directly at Ryan with a pair of red and swollen eyes. There were still tears on her eyelashes, but her eyes revealed a hint of determination.
That kind of determination made Ryan feel like a rock that stood firm in the howling north wind.
This time, Ryan was not asked again.
The barbarian girl named Lagre slowly told the story that happened to their team two days ago.
"The falcon investigation report from the Habsburg Manor was correct. There was indeed only one ogre, but after we arrived, we found that the other party was an old ogre, very cunning."
Old ogre?
Could it be that he would cast witchcraft?
Ryan was somewhat puzzled, but he did not ask, instead he patiently listened to Lagre's story.
"In fact, it has quite a few vassals, but it has them scattered around its residence, which led us to misjudge at first." "
When we launched the attack, the cunning old ogre mobilized its gnoll and kobold vassals to besiege us."
"Fortunately, my brother Harald is a violent berserker, and his body has been liberated to more than 40%."
