Suniya spent the night in a state of half-sleeping, half-awake, afraid to sleep too deeply and occasionally jolted awake by the pain spreading across her body.
Every ti she sleepily awoke, she faced a nightmare—she couldn’t move at all!
The ’Phantom Child’ of the Lingge Corps had lost her ability to move freely, which was more distressing than killing her outright.
Suniya didn’t know how long she had slept. In her daze, she felt a pair of large hands stroking her body, suddenly waking her up, followed by a sharp pain from her left hand that made her cry out involuntarily.
After the pain, Suniya lay on the ground, tears involuntarily overflowing, even snot was running.
As the pain gradually subsided, Suniya was surprised to find that her left hand was able to move.
Although still weak and powerless, it could move.
Then, Suniya felt her body lighten, and light imdiately entered her eyes, making her squint involuntarily against the glare.
A red sun peeked over the mountain peaks and sank into the sky, driving away the night and spreading light everywhere.
The sunlight filtered through the gaps in the leaves, casting warmth onto Suniya.
The perspective suddenly shifted, and the world seed to flip upside down as Suniya let out a cry of surprise, and that strong human hoisted her onto his shoulder.
"What are you doing?" Suniya shouted angrily and ashadly.
But the human didn’t understand her words at all and walked forward in silence.
Now that her left hand could move, Suniya really wanted to punch the back of the human’s head, but the thought of the tendon-splitting and bone-tearing pain made her feel a bit of dread.
She didn’t want to experience the previous events again!
Being carried on a shoulder was very uncomfortable for Suniya, her stomach was occasionally bumped.
Moreover, this human walked without watching the road, trudging straight ahead regardless of whether the way was smooth or rugged.
This also resulted in multiple collisions between her stomach and his shoulder, making her feel even more uncomfortable given she was already quite hungry.
After walking for a while, Suniya found that the human stopped and put her down on the ground.
"Hey, what are you doing now?"
This ti, the human finally reacted.
He raised a finger in front of his lips in a gesture that seed to tell her to be quiet.
Then, Suniya saw the human draw his shining sword, crouching down and sneaking forward.
Looking in the direction he was heading, Suniya was surprised to see that there was a Demon crouching ahead, and she hadn’t noticed it at all before.
At this distance, using a bow and arrow would be best. If it were her, just one arrow would be enough to kill that second-level Demon.
But that human... seed not to know how to use a bow and arrow; she had only seen him wield the shining sword yesterday, never a bow and arrow.
Suniya leaned against the tree trunk, slightly raising her head, trying to see more clearly.
Snort!
As Yan Luo approached, the dangerous-level wild boar lying by the tree root finally responded, its nose twitching as it turned its head toward Yan Luo’s direction.
At that mont, Yan Luo lunged forward, violently thrusting the fine sword, the blade piercing through the wild boar’s eye into its skull, killing it with one strike.
The wild boar’s enormous body had no ti to charge before being slain on the spot by Yan Luo.
Pulling the fine sword out of the wild boar’s head, Yan Luo wiped the brain matter and blood on its fur, tearing off a large patch of fur from the not-yet-dead body, which shuddered slightly.
Yan Luo found a proper spot to cut off so at from the wild boar.
Although he had never personally slaughtered a pig, Yan Luo knew that the tenderloin and chuck steak tasted the best.
After cutting several large pieces of at from the wild boar, Yan Luo stabbed the fine sword into the wild boar’s artery for bloodletting, then lifted the carcass to quench his thirst with its blood.
The scene made Suniya’s scalp tingle.
This human was truly savage, drinking raw blood!
If that’s the case, did he capture her to use as ergency food?
Thinking this, Suniya’s mind turned chaotic.
After quenching his thirst, Yan Luo tossed aside the wild boar’s carcass, covered in blood, and walked towards Suniya.
Suniya looked at Yan Luo in horror, her lips trembling, unable to utter a single harsh word.
Yan Luo once again picked up this enigmatic Elf, carved a mark on the nearby tree trunk with the fine sword, and continued to wander aimlessly.
After a while, Suniya finally gathered her courage to ask Yan Luo, "Are you looking for sothing?"
Yan Luo didn’t understand what she was saying, but his ears twitched, catching the sound of flowing water.
Carving another mark, Yan Luo turned his steps toward the direction of the sound.
The Elf carried a water pouch, but they had finished the water in it yesterday, otherwise, Yan Luo wouldn’t need to quench his thirst with the wild boar’s blood.
This world seed to have Magic Power in all creatures, even the cooked at was infused with Magic Power. After devouring a huge pile of mutton last night, Yan Luo gained 300 Qi of Magic Power.
With cooked at to eat, why eat it raw?
He didn’t have a perverse appetite.
Yan Luo hadn’t heard wrong; he followed the sound to a stream.
Putting the Elf aside, Yan Luo washed the bloodstains from his body with the stream water, filled the water pouch with stream water, and handed it to the Elf.
Suniya looked at the water pouch handed over by the human with a bit of suspicion, but still took it with her left hand that had regained so strength and drank deeply.
No choice, she indeed was a bit thirsty.
Yan Luo cupped water with his hands, drinking from the stream, then cleaned the at he had cut from the wild boar.
It was getting late; he should find a spot to start a fire for breakfast.
Once the idea ford, Yan Luo quickly took action, soon finding a suitable spot to make a fire, and brought a stone from the stream. First, he heated the stone in the fire and then set it up, slicing the at into pieces and roasting it on the stone.
Once cooked, Yan Luo tried a piece and found it much tastier than last night’s mutton, quickly eating several more slices.
Suniya waited and waited, expecting the human to bring over the cooked pork, but found he kept eating himself, without bringing the pieces over. Hurrying, she asked, "What about ?"
Upon hearing Suniya’s voice, Yan Luo seed to rember the Elf’s presence, lifting a slice with chopsticks and extending it to her.
Suniya, who had only eaten a little bit yesterday, was already unbearably hungry. Regardless of how hot the slice was, she opened her mouth to bite it.
The slice fell into her mouth, and Suniya felt the heat of it, almost spitting it out.
After so struggle, Suniya managed to swallow the slice.
At this mont, Yan Luo picked up another slice, and Suniya was wiser this ti; she blew on it, letting the heat dissipate before carefully sticking out her tongue to lick it, confirming it was at a suitable temperature before eating it.
In just over ten minutes, Yan Luo and Suniya finished dividing and eating all the at cut from the wild boar.
Of course, Yan Luo ate almost four-fifths.
After breakfast, Yan Luo rested for a while, before setting off again.
He still didn’t know where he was heading, but for now, he couldn’t return to Blue Star, nor did he know how to go back to Blue Star.
The organisms in this world leave bodies after death, rather than dispersing like Demons, thus Yan Luo had no way of obtaining Magic Crystals.
However, since Magic Power existed in this world, Magic Crystals must also exist; it just took ti to find them.
Following the stream upstream, Yan Luo quickly encountered so wild animals.
Wild animals in this world all contained Magic Power within, and Yan Luo naturally didn’t intend to let them go, charging with the fine sword to kill them within a few moves.
He only cut a few pieces of at, discarding the rest of the carcasses, just moving them away from the stream to avoid polluting the water source.
Suniya observed Yan Luo’s actions the whole way.
In her view, although this human was savage and violent, killing any animal he saw, his actions seed sowhat rational too.
What kind of civilization lay behind him? Why did it nurture such a person?
After so many years, what had humans developed into?
Why did they disappear back then?
Suniya was very curious about this human, but unfortunately, they couldn’t communicate due to the language barrier.
At this mont, Suniya couldn’t help but think, if only Master Magnus were here...
