Chapter 8 Traps
The little girl walking in front was humming an indiscernible song.
Al was sitting in the net bag, shaking up and down with the steps of the guards, and the iron chains collided and made a slight sound.
They quickly walked out of Rose Town. Along the way, the residents of Rose Town would step back a few steps when they saw them, avoiding them in fear, and whispered after they passed by.
Al turned around in the net bag with difficulty, stretched his neck and looked behind them anxiously.
Didn't see Leo, no one followed...
What to do, where would he be taken?
Al was in a panic, but he didn't know what to do. He could only scream at the group of people as usual when he was threatened.
Hearing the cry from behind, the girl stopped and stared back at Al with a blank expression.
Al was stunned by this human girl who looked only twelve or thirteen years old and fell silent.
The corners of the girl's mouth slowly rose, revealing a weird smile.
The Rustov family lived on the mountain, and at the foot of the mountain there was a woman in a magic robe waiting for them.
The woman raised her wand, and a gust of wind rose from under their feet, slowly lifting them up.A group of people flew up the mountain at full speed like this.
At the top of the mountain, a fat middle-aged man greeted him from the mansion, and said pleasantly, "Lucy, you really got Al back!"
"Of course, father!" the girl raised her chin and said proudly, "It's my dragon!"
The middle-aged man squatted down in front of Al, looking at him with inexplicable curiosity.
Alvo was under the net bag, looking in horror at a group of strangers surrounding him, and trembling at some point.
"It's shaking, Lucy," said the middle-aged man in surprise.
"It must have been too hard when I caught it just now." The girl said perfunctorily, and gave the female magician a look.
The female magician pushed aside the iron chains one by one, and the moment the net bag was opened, the little flying dragon struggled violently and flew up.
"Catch it! Catch it!"
The girl screamed.
Al didn't fly very far, a huge water polo fell from the sky and knocked him down!
The little flying dragon fell into the tree, rolled down through the leaves, and finally got stuck between the branches.The right wing was just pierced by a sharp branch.
Al screamed miserably.
The female magician hurried over, pushed aside the leaves, and saw the little flying dragon hissing and flapping his left wing desperately, but his right wing couldn't move at all, and his whole body was stiff and trembling slightly.
"How is it?" asked the little girl, frowning behind the sorceress.
"...the right wing was pierced, I didn't look carefully..." the female magician said apologetically, and carefully cut off the whole branch, using a posture that would not touch Al's right wing. He embraced it.
"This is the consequence of being disobedient, Al," the little girl said indifferently, "Next time you dare to run away, I will have someone kill you." that song.
Her father glanced at Al with some hesitation, and asked in a low voice to the female magician, "Is it cured?"
The sorceress nodded.
The middle-aged man murmured softly: "That's good." Then he left with the little girl.
Al's wings twitched, and the female magician felt it. She gently touched his head and said softly, "I'll take you to treat the wound."
They went around to the back of the mansion, where there were still four magicians sitting in the corridor to rest.
"Captain!" the female magician shouted.
The four magicians turned their heads when they heard the sound, and one of the men got up and walked over, showing a surprised expression when he saw the wound on Al's right wing.
"How did you get hurt like this, Irene?"
Erin said guiltily: "It's my fault..."
"... Forget it, let's talk about it later," the man called the leader said to the three magicians behind him, "Bring the potion and treat its wound."
Al buried his head in Irene's chest, not daring to move at all due to the pain.
When the potion was delivered, Irene hugged Al tightly.
The head of the mercenary group held one end of the branch and said softly, "I'm going to pull out the branch, little guy, hold on."
In the next second, Xiao Feilong struggled violently, screaming continuously.
Branches passed through the wound, rough surfaces rubbed against flesh.
After the whole branch was pulled out, Irene let out a cry of surprise, and was let go by the little flying dragon.The little flying dragon fell to the ground, but couldn't fly or stand up at all, rolling and screaming on the ground.
Irene hugged him quickly, dripping with cold sweat.
A stream of cold liquid dripped onto Al's wound, but at this moment he felt nothing but pain.
After wrapping his right wing with bandages, Irene let go of her embrace, and saw that the little flying dragon seemed to have fainted from the pain.
The entire mercenary group looked at each other in blank dismay.
The sun was almost setting when Al woke up.
He was still lying in the arms of the female magician Irene, and Irene was chatting softly with his companion.
The wound doesn't seem to hurt as much as before, I don't know if it's the effect of the potion.
After realizing that Al was awake, Irene touched his head with a smile and said, "Are you awake? How do you feel?"
"It's a dragon, and it can't talk! Haha!" Irene's companion teased her.
Erin smiled awkwardly.
Al stood up in her arms in a daze, trying to fly, but his right wing was bandaged and he couldn't move at all.
"I can't fly for a while, sorry." Irene's guilty voice sounded above her head.
"..."
Al was a little dazed.
What the hell is going on now?
He was captured by a scary little girl and brought back to the mountain. His wings were injured and he couldn't move at all... In this case, there was no way for him to escape.
Will Leo and the others come to rescue him...
But the residents of Rose Town seem to be afraid of that little girl...
Al looked up at Irene, wanting to ask her a question, but dared not speak.
Seeing Xiao Feilong silently looking at her, Irene felt a pity in her heart.
"Don't be afraid." She coaxed softly.
"Speaking of which, this is the first time I've seen such a dragon," said the female magician sitting next to Irene, looking at Al curiously. "It seems to be really weak and afraid of strangers. The one I saw before No matter how small the baby dragon is, its nature is very fierce."
"It's because of the domesticated dragons," said the man who is the team leader, "It is said that the dragons in the past were very fierce, but now more and more dragons have been tamed, and some domesticated dragons are no different from chickens and ducks. "
"But no matter what, the dragon is also the most powerful among monsters," the female magician showed a disgusted expression, "I like to trample these powerful monsters under their feet and abuse them to get pleasure , that lady is really born perverted."
Al opened his eyes wide, looking at the sorceress in horror.
abuse?Devastated?
Irene reproachfully said to her companion beside her, "You scared it."
"Huh?" The female magician looked down at Al, patted his head with a smile and said, "Don't worry, you won't be her abuse target."
"..." Why doesn't it sound like he can breathe a sigh of relief at all...
"But leader, shall we continue to be the bodyguards of this family?" the female magician asked dissatisfiedly, "I've had enough!"
The head of the group sighed and said, "I will discuss it with Mr. Rustov after a while..."
At this moment, a nightmarish sound came from not far away.
"Al-"
Erin stood up immediately.
The little girl ran in front of Irene, and before Al could turn around and run away, the little girl grabbed her.
"Miss Lucy, its wound has just been bandaged, you have to be careful—"
"It's so annoying!" Lucy frowned and glanced at Irene, "It's just a dragon!"
"..." Erin bit her lower lip.
The captain patted her on the shoulder.
Al's heart beat wildly again.
Wait, what is this little girl named Lucy going to do to him?Abuse, abuse? !
Al was relieved when he was brought into the mansion and placed on the dining table.
I took him to dinner...
Hmm... there's steak, milk, it looks good...
Al swallowed.
Lucy's father smiled at Al and said kindly, "Just eat!"
Al was flattered that the man treated him like a VIP.Speaking of which, the people in this family—the little girl, the little girl's father and that mercenary group—have completely different attitudes towards him, it's really strange...
"Just a dragon," murmured Lucy again.
"Lucy, as I said before, if you want to keep pets, you have to be responsible for them." Lucy's father said seriously.
"..." Lucy looked a little unhappy, biting the steak in her mouth hard.
"They are not toys, they are as alive as you..."
"How can pets be compared with their owners." Lucy disdainfully.
"..." Lucy's father looked at her and sighed, shaking his head.
Al listened to the sound of knives and forks on the dining table, glanced at the plate in front of him, and then at the little girl.The latter was only focused on eating the steak. Although he frowned tightly, he didn't even look at him.
Al swallowed, lowered his head and licked the steak.
The smell is so fragrant, it seems to be really delicious...
He took a small bite.
After dinner, Al was picked up by the little girl again and walked out of the mansion.
Humming that weird tone, the little girl took him to a separate small house behind the mansion and threw him into it!
Al got up from the ground and looked back at the little girl standing at the door.
The little girl laughed and said, "This is punishment for running away. You can't sleep in my room tonight, Al."
After speaking, the door was closed with a "bang".
"..."
Not a single ray of light.
Al couldn't see his surroundings clearly, dragging his injured wings and groping around in fear, he came across a pile of firewood beside him.
He tried to climb up because the ground was really icy.But no matter how hard he crawled, he couldn't move, and he couldn't even flap his wings. Finally, he could only give up and sat down by the firewood pile.
Al felt a little aggrieved.
He obviously slept in the warm blanket with Oro last night.
Where the hell is Oro?At this time, they should know about his capture, right?Can you come and save him tomorrow?
He doesn't want to stay in this place forever... Don't, that girl looks really scary...
……
Al fell asleep drowsily, but probably because of the wound on his right wing, he slept very lightly.
Therefore, in the middle of the night, the slight sound woke him up suddenly.
Al opened his eyes, but couldn't see anything, and his fear made him shrink back reflexively.
The next second, with a "squeak", the door was slowly pushed open, and a figure stood at the door.
Al's eyes widened in surprise.
...Irene?
The female magician nervously looked to the left and right, walked in quickly, picked him up carefully, and said in a low voice, "I'll take you out of here, or you will be killed by that witch one day!"
Eh?
Eileen hugged Al, ran out of the woodshed and flew down the mountain with the night wind!
Al hasn't recovered yet—can he, can he leave that strange place?So fast? !
They walked through the woods at full speed, and the wind tugged at Irene's clothes and hair!It took Al a while to digest the fact that he could return home safely, and slowly relaxed and even became excited...
But suddenly, Irene stopped and fell to the ground.
Al was a little puzzled. He looked up and saw Irene showing a guarded look, and then turned his head - a dark shadow stood not far away, blocking their way.
There was almost no light in the woods late at night.
Who is standing there?
Somehow, Al felt a sense of familiarity.
"Who is it?" Irene's voice became a little sharper, "Who is standing there!"
The night wind suddenly became violent, blowing the whole forest "crawling".
The leaves rubbed and shook, revealing gaps.
The black shadow took a step forward, and a ray of moonlight fell on his face.
With black hair, scarlet eyes, and a cloak blown up by the wind, it looked like a demon had spread its wings.
Night Breeze delivered a deep voice.
— "Where are you going to take him?"
Irene's hand holding Al tightened slightly.
Al was taken aback again.
It's the cloaked man!
How could he be here?
But this question is not important, as far as he knows, this cloaked man gave him gold coins twice and touched his head, he is not only a good person, but also an acquaintance!
Al spread his left wings excitedly, and yelled "Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" towards the cloaked man.
The cloaked man looked at Al, and gently raised the corners of his lips.
"Give him to me, human," the cloaked man held out his hand, "he's not yours."
"It's not your dragon either, I just want to return it to its owner." Irene protected Al.
"Really? Then you seem to be going in the wrong direction."
"..." Irene said coldly, "I don't know what you're talking about—who are you and why are you here? This entire mountain belongs to the Rustov family, not just anyone I can come up!"
"Oh?" The cloaked man paused, "Then stop me."
"..."
Al was puzzled.
What are they talking about?He doesn't understand at all...
Irene's long hair fluttered - countless water droplets appeared all over her body, and the water droplets slowly condensed into ice, turning into sharp spikes. As she raised and lowered her hands, the ice spikes attacked the cloaked man one after another!
Al was startled!
However, the cloaked man smashed the ice thorns with a wave of his hand, without any injuries.
Erin took a step back: "Who the hell are you?"
"None of your business," said the cloaked man quietly, "give him to me."
"..." After a moment of silence, Irene smiled.
The night sky suddenly lit up, and a huge fire cage fell from the sky and landed heavily on the cloaked man!
The fire cage raised a violent wind, cutting the woods like a sharp knife!The grass and trees that touched the edge of the fire cage burst into flames!
At this time, the head of the mercenary regiment and three other magicians who were supposed to be asleep appeared in the air!
More than a dozen iron chains flew out of their hands, passed through the fire cage, passed over the cloaked man's body, and nailed them into the ground, trapping the cloaked man in place and being unable to move.
Irene took the opportunity to fly into the air, arrived at her companion, looked down at the man in the cloak and said, "Is that him?"
"Wearing a cloak, black hair and red eyes, it should be right." said the leader.
Only then did Al realize that something was wrong.
Irene... doesn't seem to really want to take him away...
"So what do we do now?" Erin asked.
Just as the leader was about to speak, he frowned.
There was a huge explosion, and then the whole mountain roared, and the ground where the cloaked man was standing was cracked and sunken, kicking up a cloud of dust!
The iron chain loosened from the soil, and the figure of the cloaked figure disappeared.
Before the entire mercenary group came back to their senses, they were knocked down by a golden light like lightning!
Irene let go, Al separated from her, and fell to the other side with the wind!
The little flying dragon fell on its back, flapping its left wing desperately but couldn't fly at all, was so frightened that it almost cried in mid-air - the cloaked man flew towards him, stretching out his hand and trying to catch him!
However, a shadow flashed by, and Al was snatched away first.
"Oro!" Al exclaimed again in surprise and choked up.
The one holding him is Oro!
"Oro, Oro!" Al excitedly grabbed the lapel of Oro's chest with his claws.
The blond man reached out and rubbed his head, one person and one dragon spun around in the air to stabilize their bodies, and then rushed towards the cloaked man without stopping!
A fireball rapidly spun and expanded in Oro's palm, and was thrown towards the cloaked man at the critical moment!
With a loud "bang", the trees were burned in an instant, and a pit was smashed out on the ground. After the smoke was blown away, the figure of the cloaked man appeared at the bottom of the pit.
Oro slowly fell to the ground with Al.
The five magicians of the mercenary group had just fallen to the ground and could not move. It was already very difficult to stand up.
"Oro, did you call the wrong person..." Al whispered.
Irene and the others seem to be the ones who have plans...
Oro ignored him, staring at the man in the cloak and slowly smiled: "I got you."
Al was taken aback.
The cloaked man was silent.
"Since you've been following us, you should know who I am, so you don't need to introduce yourself? To be fair, shouldn't you also tell us your identity?"
"..."
"Don't you answer? Then let me guess," Oro walked over step by step, with a hint of excitement in his voice, "Your goal is this stupid dragon, but it's not to kill him, and even to protect it a little bit." He meant. But since you like him so much, you will do something like follow this kind of pervert, why don't you just kill me and take this stupid dragon away? - Can't you get close to him? Maybe... stupid The dragon actually knows you?" He stopped in front of the cloaked man.
"Oro... what are you talking about?" Al asked softly.
"Have you seen him several times? Don't you recognize him?" Oro asked, glancing at him.
Al shook his head, thought for a while and said, "I just feel that the smell on him is very familiar."
"Really... Maybe it has something to do with your amnesia." After a pause, Oro looked at the cloaked man again, "This man must have some connection with you."
"Yes, is it..." Al couldn't keep up with the progress of things.
The man in the cloak moved, turned his back to them, propped up his upper body with his hands, and suddenly said, "Al, don't you understand?"
"?"
"The thing about you being taken away was planned by him, just to lure me out."
Oro froze for a moment, and glanced at the little flying dragon in his arms, just in time to meet the latter's gaze.Little flying dragon stared at him blankly with mung bean eyes, which made his aura just now leak out, and he felt inexplicably guilty: "... so what?"
"Then what's your purpose?" The cloaked man patted his clothes, slowly stood up from the ground and turned around, seemingly unharmed.
On the one hand, Oro was a little surprised, but on the other hand, he had to concentrate on the conversation with the other party: "What?"
"What's your purpose?" The cloaked man's calm voice sounded, passing through the night into Oro's ears, "You clearly guessed that I might be the one who killed the Dragon King, and the other Dragon King By your side, you should think of a way to protect him from me, but instead you used him as a bait in order to know my identity."
"..."
"You must be curious, right? Who in this world is strong enough to kill a dragon king by himself - but now that you see me, what can you do?" The cloaked man pulled his pale fingers away The belt on the chest, took off the entire cloak, and threw it on the ground.
The black-haired man was wearing a black magic robe that almost blended into the night, and his blood-colored eyes showed a hint of coldness in the night.
"You don't naively think that I will take the initiative to tell you who I am, do you? What are you going to do next?"
Oro clenched his fists.
"Is there no other way?" The black-haired man showed a mocking expression.
Deathly silence.
Then the blond man sighed.
"...With my strength, I may not be able to force you to do anything. After all, you are the one who can kill the Dragon King. I have never seen the magic power you used before, and the attack just now seemed to have no effect on you. But..." Oro spread his hands, "——Since we met today, it will be convenient to find you in the future."
"How do you find it?" The black-haired man mocked, "Like today, let others hurt Al to lure me out?"
"His injury was an accident." Oro narrowed his eyes.
"Really?" The dark-haired man chuckled.
Oro subconsciously tightened the arm hugging the little flying dragon, and said slowly: "Your power is indeed mysterious, but don't think that you are already strong enough that there will be no flaws. I said that I can find you at any time in the future, I can do it."
The dark-haired man stared at him blankly.
"...Then I'll wait for you."
With one last look at Al, the man turned and flew into the woods.
The head of the mercenary group barely stood up and wanted to catch up, but Oro shouted: "Don't follow up!"
He looked at Irene and asked, "Have you collected the golden mana just now?"
Irene nodded, stretched out her hand and spread her five fingers. There was a small bottle lying in the palm of her hand, and a golden power was quietly swirling in the bottle.
Oro walked over, took the small bottle, and said softly, "I'm sorry to bother you."
"No need," Irene patted her clothes and stood up, "Although I don't know what's going on, but we are very grateful for helping that troublesome lady in our family find her young dragon who ran away from home .Sorry I accidentally gave your dragon to-"
Oro looked down at the little flying dragon.
Xiao Feilong lowered his head, and has been unusually quiet since just now.
