Chapter 12 Little Accident()

In fact, it's no wonder that the two guards are timid. There are no professional combatants in the brigade. They are just temporary guest appearances. This is generally the case for brigade groups. They will not spend a lot of money to hire professional fighters. They only hire some when needed.

People come. Although they cannot cope with big scenes, they are usually enough. Therefore, as "amateur guest stars", these two guards have shown brave enough. But such bravery is limited. When they get close to the mutant beast, the two guards

People were so frightened that they couldn't even hold onto their weapons.

Xue Tong still didn't make a sound, standing silently next to Sarah. Carrying large and small packages of herbs behind her, and holding a medicinal hoe in her left hand. Sarah stared ahead nervously. Compared with the two "armed farmers"

, her courage is actually quite good.

As the two watched, the two guards trembled and approached the mutant beast little by little. When they were more than twenty meters away from each other, the mutant beast finally became alert. The mutant beast raised its head with a cry, and opened its mouth full of horns.

Big toothy mouth.

Xue Tong could clearly see that it was a gray ferocious beast, belonging to the lowest species among mutant beasts. It looked like a rat enlarged more than ten times, and its claws were poisonous, so the danger level was very low.

"Ah! It's coming, it's coming! Help!" The two guards let out a piercing scream. They dropped their spears and ran away without looking back. Looking at their hurried backs, the little girl Sha

La was very angry.

"Come back, you two. Come back! Are you going to leave me here?"

"No need to call," Xue Tong was silent for a while, and finally spoke. His voice was dull and slow. "They have lost their courage, and it is useless for you to call them."

"I don't blame them for abandoning me and running away, I'm afraid that they will die. Is there a camp over there? They will be killed by other mutant beasts. Ah... you spoke, you actually... can talk?" the little girl

Sarah explained it first, and then she covered her mouth in surprise as if she had suddenly discovered a new world.

"I never said I was mute." After saying two sentences, Xue Tong's speech began to become fluent. But his voice was still low.

"But... but..." The little girl Sarah didn't seem to have recovered from the surprise. However, one hand had already grabbed the corner of Xue Tong's clothes.

Now Xue Tong is indeed little Sarah's only hope. Although she doesn't know what Xue Tong's abilities are, little Sarah knows from the previous treatment process that Xue Tong is a warrior.

Unlike the "armed farmers" in the brigade, Xue Tong is a warrior, and... he is a professional.

That's enough for Sarah.

Seemingly noticing her nervousness, Xue Tong said calmly. "Don't worry, that's a gray beast. It's not much of a threat. As long as we don't get close to it, it's fine."

"Mutated beasts are not threatening?" Little Sarah blinked. "Are you kidding?"

"Of course, this is normal. Not all mutant beasts must eat meat. For the gray beast, the water source here is probably its main target." Xue Tong explained in a low voice. At the same time, it was a little strange. "What do you think?

A pharmacist, doesn’t he know this?”

"I never collect herbs myself. They are all protected by the brigade." Little Sarah answered confidently.

Shaking his head, Xue Tong fell silent. Then he took the little girl's hand and walked towards the gray beast. His movements were very careful and as gentle as possible, but his expression was very calm. This made Sarah's mood stabilize a lot.

.Although she was a little nervous, she still followed Xue Tong step by step. She moved carefully. The two of them soon approached the gray beast. But unlike the guards in front, the route Xue Tong chose was an arc, which was just right.

He drew a half circle around the gray beast.

The gray beast lay prone on the ground and uttered threats. However, as Xue Tong said, it did not actually pounce on him.

"I don't see that you know a lot about mutant beasts."

"That's the instinct of survival." Xue Tong replied calmly, and then made a silent gesture.

Sarah nodded and stopped talking. Her expression began to soften. Now even she, a layman, could see that the Gray Beast was indeed not as dangerous as people said. As long as you keep a proper distance from it, it would not attack.

. The first two guards violated its warning circle because they were scared out of their wits.

Xue Tong's movements were very gentle, like a panther hunting for prey. As he entered the state, Sarah suddenly found that his sense of existence disappeared. Even if she held the other party's hand tightly, she seemed not to feel his presence.

exist.

"Woo..." A strange look appeared in the mutant beast's eyes. Its voice also softened a lot, but it still stared at the two of them warily. It wasn't until the two of them slowly walked around it that they lowered their heads and continued to drink water.

The crisis was over. Little Sarah breathed a sigh of relief. She glanced at the mutated beast not far behind her, and then smiled at Xue Tong.

"You are more useful than I thought."

"..." Xue Tong said nothing. From this moment on, he seemed to have become the mute who couldn't speak again.

But little Sarah wouldn't see it that way. From this incident, she discovered something strange about the man next to her. Although she didn't know how much the man was hiding from her, the calmness and kindness shown by Xue Tong just now

The stealth technology allowed her to see the value of Xue Tong. The brigade did not support useless idlers, but hunters like Xue Tong were still very popular. At least in the current Black Sheep Brigade, Sarah

You can't find a man who is calmer and better at handling emergencies than Xue Tong.

This is the best person to be a guard.

"From now on, you will be my exclusive guard. I will tell the leader when I get back. I will fight for your share of resources and ensure that it is no less than others."

"..."

"That's it." Sarah waved her hand domineeringly, as if she had obtained huge benefits for Xue Tong. "Now, tell me your name. Mr. Mute, I don't want to call you by your code name in the future."

"...Blood Eyes."

"Xuetong... is such a fierce name. It doesn't look like your appearance at all." Sarah said jokingly.

The two quickly returned to the camp. When they entered the camp, they happened to see a white-haired old man organizing a team. In front of him stood more than a dozen middle-aged men in tattered clothes, each holding a spear in his hand.

Seeing Sarah and Xue Tong walking over, the old man's eyes suddenly lit up and he walked over with a face full of joy.

"Sarah, you are back. I heard that you are in danger and I am about to organize people to rescue you."

"Thank you very much, Captain Vic." Sarah saluted politely. "I didn't expect to trouble everyone. Please forgive me for being willful and walking out of the camp."

"It's okay, it's okay." The white-haired old Vic waved his hands repeatedly. "You are the only pharmacist in our brigade, so naturally you have to be protected. It was our mistake that we didn't protect you well. Those two guys have already been punished by me.

.They will not receive any supplies in the next three days. I will not make it easy for them."

Little Sarah was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect that the two guards actually ran back to the camp. But she came back to her senses in an instant and smiled gently. "Please don't mind, Captain Vic. Don't punish me for my reasons."

They. They also want to survive. When facing mutant beasts, not everyone can stick to their principles."

"That's not okay! You can't convince the crowd without rules." Old Vic waved his hand seriously and emphasized his tone.

"My brigade cannot allow people who are just fake to join. They cannot enjoy the power if they have not fulfilled their obligations. This cannot be changed at any time. But you, Sarah, how did you escape? Listen to those two

The guy said, that mutated beast is very vicious?"

"Oh, I think that's not true." Sarah replied with a smile. "Although it is a ferocious mutant beast, it does not pose much of a threat. As long as it is not irritated, it is not willing to do this for me.

Taking risks with his thin body. Obviously, Blood Eye has this deterrent power."

"You mean him?" Old Vic then turned his attention to Xue Tong and looked at it carefully. He couldn't help but shake his head slightly. "He is not tall enough. In fact, I don't see what deterrent effect he has.

A mutant beast is afraid."

"Oh, Uncle Vic. That's not important, is it? What's important is that I'm back and intact." Sarah said with a smile. Of course she couldn't tell Old Vic that under Xue Tong's seemingly thin body was

What kind of strong muscles. She has verified this with her own hands. A man's strength is not just about appearance. From Sarah's pharmacist's perspective, she naturally understands that a body shape like Xue Tong's is the most perfect. It seems harmless.

There is explosive power underneath his body.

"Oh, you're right." After hearing what Sarah said, Old Vic naturally did not ask further questions. He turned around and dismissed the guards. Then he frowned at Sarah and lowered his voice.

"But Sarah, I have to remind you that the resources of the brigade are not sufficient. Too much has been wasted trying to save this guy. I don't want another mouth to eat in the brigade."

"But he is very useful to me." Sarah refused to give in. "For this, I can use part of my share of resources."

"Your share is not rich, and you still have to take care of little Toby." Old Vic thought about it for a while, then gritted his teeth in pain. "Forget it, I'll let everyone be tighter. Sarah, this

This is the last time you will be willful."

"I knew Uncle Vic was the best." Sarah suddenly beamed. She hugged Old Vic and kissed him. Then she turned around and grabbed Xue Tong's hand.

"Let's go. Uncle Vic has agreed. From today on, you will be a member of the Black Sheep Brigade."

"..." Xue Tong said nothing. He still followed Sarah silently.
