Chapter 22 Survival in a desperate situation
The subtle traces left by Chen An and Alex in the jungle maze cannot hide their whereabouts in the eyes of professionals who are good at detecting. As a believer of the god of hunting, Ballins is a leader in reconnaissance. After he found footprints left by humans in the jungle maze, he followed Alex's whereabouts.
At first, when he discovered Alex from afar, he did not lose any sense even if he was ecstatic. He always kept Norred's warning in mind. When he was about to leave and report the situation back, who would have thought that Alex actually discovered himself?
"Who is it? Get out of here"
It was an accident that he discovered Ballins. When Alex integrated his breath into the surrounding environment and became increasingly coordinated, his free perception suddenly discovered an out of place and strange aura in the dark. In an instant, he suddenly woke up and pulled out his dagger and stared at the hidden position of Ballins.
"Yeah, Alex, I haven't seen you for many days. Your vigilance really makes me admire you!" When Balins heard this, he appeared carelessly and walked towards the other party step by step.
"Big Brother Balins?"
Seeing the visitor clearly, Alex suddenly widened his eyes in disbelief, because the other party was one of the seniors who led him to explore the Demon-Captaining Tower and also taught himself a lot of knowledge about reconnaissance and combat. To a certain extent, Ballins can be regarded as his introductory teacher on the path of God-Follower.
"Sorry, I can't afford to be a big brother of the blasphemer."
Ballins pulled out the two short knives between his legs with both hands, and the smile was filled with endless chills.
"Are you here to catch me too?" Alex subconsciously took a step back, and said in grief with his teeth tightly.
"There's no way, who has let the temple offer you a reward that is too generous and tempting." Ballins stopped and kept a relatively safe distance from Alex and sneered. "So instead of letting you be caught by others, it's better to be cheaper for us."
"Are Brother Nored and the others here too?" Alex said in pain, holding the dagger tightly.
"Of course, after all, we are a small team. Besides, if the captain did not take action, how could I find your whereabouts so smoothly?" Ballins said with a joke. "What? Alex, do you think that after following us for half a month, we will regard you as our true companions? Don't joke, in fact, we don't know how many new people like you have brought each year. Do you know what you are in our eyes? Haha, you are our slaves, our servants, we can sacrifice the abandoned scapegoats at any time. To deal with you, you will be self-reliant, hardworking and obedient as a ridiculous idiot..."
"You...you..." Alex seemed to be unable to bear the cold truth revealed by Ballins, and his whole body trembled.
"Alex, this is the last advice I have taught you. The world of God's favor has never been only cold and cold interests."
Ballins bowed his body, like the movements and postures of a beast prey before it was preyed upon, and the two swords in his hand were his sharpest minions. As he finished speaking, his men had pounced in front of Alex.
bite--
Alex reacted very quickly. When Balins' two swords attacked, he immediately held the dagger tightly to block the opponent's fatal blow that was lightning-throw. Unfortunately, his combat experience was not as rich as Balins. The next moment he let Balins get a whip-leg attack and flew out directly. The hidden and rapid movements were not something Alex could have expected.
The severe pain between his waist and abdomen almost made Alex vomit all his bile. Facing Balins' merciless pursuit, he did not care about the pain in his body, and quickly rolled up to fight against the storm of Balins.
He is like a flower swaying in the wind. No matter how he defends, Ballins can find the angle of attack to cause constant damage to his body. The whole scene is as easy and cruel as an adult bullying a child.
Am I going to die?
After Ballins kicked him away to the camp tent again, Alex, covered in scars, couldn't help but think sadly that he had fought desperately, but the absolute gap in strength made him no matter what, and he was not a match for Ballins. Every attack he could easily avoid, and every defense he had failed.
"Alex, you're still too young after all!"
Looking at Alex lying on the ground dying, Ballins walked slowly towards him with a cruel smile.
Alex struggled backwards with his legs and feet, trying hard to get away from Ballins' approach. Even though he knew it was a futile act, his body's instincts and fears could not control.
"Brother Balins, please... please don't kill me..." Alex, who felt the threat of death, began to slowly collapse. After all, he was just a fifteen-year-old boy.
"Don't worry, I won't kill you, because only the temple is qualified to rule your life and death..." Ballins came to Alex's face, and his eyes flashed with a cold light. "However, the temple did not say that you would not break your hands and feet!"
As he said that, Ballins raised his feet and stepped on Alex's calf on the ground.
Suddenly, the tent next to the two men suddenly broke open, and Chen An's figure rushed towards the unexpected Balins. Unfortunately, his strength was too weak and he had no way to pounce on the other party. After a second attempt, he could only hold Balins tightly and shouted anxiously.
"Alex! Hurry! Kill him!"
The instantaneous change made Balins' nerve reaction slow, and this was exactly what made him fatal.
When Alex was shocked to see Chen An rushing out of the tent and hugging Ballins, he was also stunned for a moment. However, Chen An's roar immediately awakened him. With the feeling of death on the verge of despair, he burst out with an unprecedented last force, jumping from the ground to stabbing the ballins' eye socket with a dagger. The whole process was completed in a flash.
Ballins kept twitching his mouth, as if he couldn't believe what was in front of him. He actually let a boy kill him?
Seeing that Balins still had signs of life, Alex was so scared that the dagger in his hand stirred wildly in Balins' eyes for several rounds, which directly stirred the other person's brain into a ball, and the brain gradually flowed out of his eyes.
"He's dead?!"
After a long time, Chen An, who was holding Balins tightly, was exhausted and said.
