The Hero in Exile

"Is it coming?"

"Shh, keep your voice down." Moran said in a low voice.

Moran lowered his voice, slowed down his pace, and slowly moved towards the wooden jar in front of him. He peeled a small hole and looked outside.

"come here quickly."

Seeing Moran waving to let her go over, she prepared to go over. However, it seemed that he must have discovered the Demon Wolf King. Lingyu lay on the ground like a caterpillar and finally moved over.

The air around them was gradually filled with the smell of blood.

Lingyu covered her nose with one hand.

"What's going on? Why does it smell like blood?"

"The smell is so strong because the wolves have just dragged all the animals they hunted here and gathered them here. It looks like the Demon Wolf King is about to come out." Moran said.

"why?"

"There is a strict class system in the wolf tribe, and the wolf king usually gets to enjoy the captured prey first."

step - step - step -

"Something's coming."

Lingyu had naturally noticed it a long time ago. She could faintly feel the pressure from the heavy footsteps. If an ordinary person came, he would probably have been scared to death.

A huge figure walked out from the woods. It looked several times larger than an ordinary magic wolf. However, what was worrying was that the magic wolf king seemed to be covered with a strange and mysterious black pattern.

"The patterns on the Demon Wolf King's body are what you demons use to control them?" Lingyu asked tentatively.

Moran nodded, his eyes still fixed on the movements of the Demon Wolf King.

"Can't you just ask your men to regain control?"

"Impossible." Moran looked at Lingyu speechlessly.

"Why not?"

"Because the cadre who controlled the Demon Wolf King was chopped off by you before."

Lingyu said awkwardly, "Is... is that so?"

The holy sword on his back sent a buzzing sound into Lingyu's mind, which was an instinctive disgust. Lingyu himself often encountered this situation during the war. It might be caused by the repulsion between the essence of the devil and the holy light, plus the contract between him and the holy sword.

Of course, this was just a small episode. Lingyu and Moran were still in the bushes nearby, paying attention to the situation of the wolf pack and the Demon Wolf King.

Ouch~owoo~

After the wolves stopped howling, they all retreated to make way for the wolf king, seemingly letting the wolf king enjoy the most delicious food first.

"The Wolf King is so nice. He usually seems to get food without doing anything. Don't other demon wolves complain?"

"Look at that wolf."

Looking at the wolves standing on both sides, there was a demon wolf that behaved extremely abnormally.

When the wolf king was about to come in front of it, he walked out of the queue. The wolf king hesitated for a moment, but still there was not much change.

Uh-huh~

The little wolf lowered its body with the hair on its back standing up, constantly demonstrating to the wolf king. The surrounding wolves growled at this ungrateful wolf cub but none of them went up to him.

The wolf king didn't want to pay any attention to the wolf cub and just wanted to continue enjoying his prey. When the wolf cub saw the wolf king approaching, he bared his fangs and moved towards the wolf king's neck.

Ouch~

Only a scream was heard, and the wolf cub's body was lying under the giant tree next to him. There were huge claw marks on his body and blood was still flowing out.

"Is the Wolf King so powerful?"

"Keep your voice down."

Moran pushed Lingyu's head back into the bushes.

"Shh!" Moran tried his best to lower his voice. "I think you want to kill me." Moran looked back and was relieved that he was not discovered.

"I'm sorry, the main thing is that he is so strong, how can we defeat him now?"

"There is a way, but it depends on whether you are willing to sacrifice yourself." Moran smiled evilly.

"What do you want to do?" Lingyu couldn't help but feel a glow behind her.

"I'd rather die than go."

After listening to Moran's plan, I found it extremely unreliable. What does it mean that he can attract the attention himself and then figure out the rest for himself?

"Then what are you going to do?" Seeing Lingyu's resistance, if it dragged on any longer, the wolves would leave.

"How about rock-paper-scissors, which is the method in our world, and whoever loses goes?"

"Then tell me how to make it faster."

After some explanation, Moran finally understood that this kind of thing was just for children to play with and it didn't sound like it had any technical content.

Lingyu gave a subtle smile. This guy had been invincible from kindergarten to high school and had never lost. He even set a record of being undefeated for a year. How dare the little Moran be arrogant in front of him?

"Rock, paper, scissors then."

Scissors.

Stone.

Is it an illusion? He is scissors, so logically he should be cloth. Just in case, I took another look, but it still didn't change.

how so!

"Okay, I won and you can go out now." Mo Lanping said.

"You must have cheated, right? You used a spell like time stop to win, right? That's so despicable." Lingyu's voice gradually trembled.

"Ha, are you kidding?" He grabbed Lingyu by the scruff of his neck and said, "Get over here."

puff~

Lingyu was standing in the middle of the wolf pack, looking at each other.

"Will that let me go?"
