When David Kevin jumped down from the roof, he came face to face with the black-eared wolf that was rushing over.
He slammed on the brakes, but because he was going too fast, he staggered several steps due to inertia before he came to a stop. When he raised his head, he almost touched the nose of the black-eared wolf.
David Kevin: ...
The man and the beast froze in place at the same time, neither reacting for a moment.
David Kevin held his breath and felt that the short day since he crawled out from underground was so damn exciting. He might as well stay back underground!
The black-eared wolf's bloodshot eyes moved, and it suddenly jumped up, its sharp claws flashing with cold light, and rushed towards David Kevin fiercely.
David Kevin raised his head, bent his knees, knelt on the ground, bent his waist and dodged, and narrowly avoided it. But before he could straighten up again, the black-eared wolf clawed at him again.
"Step aside!"
There was a dull thud of "bang" and David Kevin subconsciously narrowed his eyes, his vision suddenly blurred.
The black-eared wolf howled angrily and fell heavily onto the stone wall beside it. Its huge and strong body directly crushed the corners of the stone wall, and rubble fell straight down.
Samuel Osvid wiped his mouth, rolled up from the ground, and rolled back to David Kevin, mocking him: "Dear Mr. David Kevin with a dagger, will you climb over the wall again next time?"
"Are you still excited?" David Kevin pushed him hard, and the two of them tried to slip through the alley at the side and get out of the black-eared wolf's sight.
Unexpectedly, after the thing fell on the wall, a rhythmic low gurgling sound came out from the bottom of its throat, and then it raised its head and howled loudly.
David Kevin was stunned for a moment, and grabbed Samuel Osvid who was about to run to the alley, and shouted: "Don't move!"
He hadn't heard clearly in the casino before because it was too noisy, but now he finally recognized the "snoring". He was very familiar with this rhythmic low throat sound and sharp howl. This was the unique information exchange method of the gEthant beastmen on the battlefield. It was like a code, and no one except the beasts of their own race could fully understand it.
He only knew that since the black-eared wolf made such a sound, it meant that they could not get out of the alley - as expected, a black shadow flashed in front of David Kevin, and the blind lion tucked one of its front paws and fell to the ground from the low wall, blocking their only way out.
"Fcuk!" Samuel Osvid had no dignity or self-awareness of being an emperor. He cursed and subconsciously moved back to back with David Kevin.
The lion couldn't see, and its expression was still a little dazed. David Kevin even suspected that it was stupid. It only reacted a little when it heard the black-eared wolf snoring and howling, and it acted almost reflexively according to those signals.
David Kevin and Oswald's path was guarded tightly.
The black-eared wolf's eyes were almost bleeding. He was already very crazy, but he could also bring another half-stupid lion with him. The two beasts, which were as tall as two people when they stood up, were approaching David Kevin and Oswald little by little...
The thick soles of his feet stepped on the ground silently, but it seemed like a fatal countdown.
Five meters, three meters... and then a sudden pounce!
David Kevin slashed with his knife and cut open the black-eared wolf's belly.
Just as the black-eared wolf's sharp claws were about to touch David Kevin's face and David Kevin's blade was about to touch its abdomen, a scream pierced the night and entered the ears of the two men and two animals.
"dad!!!"
David Kevin's hands immediately trembled, thinking, isn't that the little B@st@ard who ran off with Mio? Who is he trying to identify as his father again? !
The next second, he was hit by something like a cannonball, staggered backward, and rolled together with Samuel Osvid.
At the same time, chaotic footsteps sounded one after another, falling around the two of them.
David Kevin sat up from the ground and saw that the Bronze Army team had arrived and was surrounding the two beasts. The little B@st@ard had changed back into his beast form and was slapping the black-eared wolf's face to the ground with one claw. He also pushed the blind lion aside and rubbed it hard for a while before he stopped.
This way of greeting is a bit brutal and rough, with claws not even retracted, and can cut a layer of flesh at any time.
... Mio walked in from the alley with a horse vulture, staring at the chaotic situation for a long time, and finally found a point of entry: "So...these two beasts followed closely, but your Majesty got rid of you?"
Bronze Army Squad: ...
The shadows in their hearts at this moment were enough to cover the entire city.
Samuel Osvid didn't bother to train the Bronze Army Squad. After all, it was normal for David Kevin to be thrown off because of his indiscriminate defense. At least he and David Kevin were still sitting here alive and well. Compared to these, he was more concerned about the three large beasts rolling in front of him - the unknown cub was indeed from the gEthant beastman tribe, and he even called the blind lion dad.
Samuel Osvid groaned, tilted his head and said to David Kevin, "It seems that this guy is the one he's looking for... His family picked you up and took care of you for a few years, right? Hmm?"
David Kevin was hit hard in the face by the facts, and immediately gave up and started to act like a spoiled brat: "What? Just solve the problem in front of you first, then talk about other things."
"You always have something to say." Samuel Osvid snorted in agreement, then turned to the little lion and said, "Let them change their form, or I will
"People can't safely take back their weapons, do you understand, kid?"
The little lion turned back into a boy in a blink of an eye, looked around, and shook his head repeatedly, saying, "I'm afraid it's not possible now. They can't be changed."
"Why?" Oswald frowned.
David Kevin answered for the kid: "One was too hungry. From what I know, when a gEthant beastman is extremely weak, he will instinctively keep his beast form, which makes his attack more powerful and easier to protect himself. The other one... I suspect he was fed some kind of drug and was close to going crazy. He was too excited to change back."
The little lion nodded and said, "Give me some meat and I'll call you my second daddy!"
David Kevin: ... Your biological father is right next to you, aren't you afraid of getting beaten for talking like that?
"What a mess!" Samuel Osvid was amazed at the shamelessness of this kid. He waved his hand and asked the Bronze Army to help the kid get the two beasts into the Crow's Nest Abandoned Temple.
"How did you become like this? How did you meet my father?" The little lion wagged his tail and counted the wounds on his father's body one by one, completely forgetting that he still had a lot of poisonous wounds on his body that had not been healed.
David Kevin and Oswald looked at each other and recalled what Lucas had said: "We caught a stray lion in Skull Valley. It must have lost its way and was living on garbage."
Such a description would not be pleasant for anyone, let alone a seven or eight-year-old child, so they both chose to shut up and changed the subject: "How did you get separated from him?"
When he was with David Kevin and the others, the kid was quite aggressive, but now that he has found his father, he has become obedient, and even his messy hair has become more docile. He held a handful of bones and dried meat and stuffed them into the lion's mouth one by one.
It was not until the lion finished swallowing the last bit of meat, shook its ears tiredly and dozed off that he wiped his hands and ran to David Kevin.
The kid sat down on the carriage footrest, swinging his legs, and whispered, "My dad... he doesn't have a very good memory. He can't remember many things, including what he did just now, who he met, and even where we live. But when he hears snoring, he will run away, so we often get separated. Fortunately, I can always find him. I bet that after this nap, he won't remember seeing you."
David Kevin chewed the dried meat for a few times, then suddenly frowned and raised his hand to interrupt, "Wait, what did you say your father's name was?"
"Henry." The kid asked, "What's wrong?"
"I've met someone with the same name before..." David Kevin hesitated.
He didn't have as many dealings with the gEthant beastmen as the sand ghosts, but he knew a lot about them. For example, although they were a complete tribe, they didn't like to live together normally, preferring to live separately. Only when they were on high alert would they gather together to prepare for war.
Because they didn't have close contact, they were quite perfunctory about names, which were "used to distinguish each other". As far as David Kevin knew, they all liked to use monosyllabic names, which were easy to call out, and were both labor-saving and perfunctory.
The name "Henry" happened to be one of the names David Kevin remembered, and it was the one that left the deepest impression on him.
Because this was the name of the previous leader of the behemoth tribe.
About ten years ago, David Kevin had seen his human form in the battle against the Sand Ghost.
He was a tough guy with golden brown hair and stubble. Due to his ethnicity, he was more than two meters tall when he stood up. He was like a muscular gEthant, standing firmly in front of the gEthant orc army like a mountain. Then he led the brave and fierce warriors behind him and joined forces with David Kevin's bronze army to wipe out the sand ghost army.
The scene was so impressive that David Kevin couldn't even associate the name with the dozing lion in front of him.
He did hear some rumors later that Henry was ambushed by the Sand Ghosts during a battle and might not be able to fight again. The GEthant Beastmen have always believed in the most primitive law of survival, so Henry went from being a leader to a former leader, and then disappeared...
The little lion scratched his head and said, "That's the same name as mine? No, I don't know any tribesmen with the same name as mine."
That's it.
David Kevin looked at the lion with mixed emotions.
The black-eared wolf nearby was drinking water mixed with sedative juice. The taste must have been not very pleasant. It drank two sips and could not help shaking its head. It let out an irritable snore from the bottom of its throat, and then followed up with a howl out of habit.
The dozing lion suddenly raised its head. Its eyes, which were pierced by scars, closed unnaturally. Its lame leg struggled a few times and finally stood up from the ground.
Just as it arched its back, trying to discern the message conveyed by the snoring in order to respond, the little lion jumped off the carriage and ran over to comfort him, "Dad is me, Alex. There are no sand ghosts and no one is hurt. I just snored. Can you rest for a while?"
The male lion withdrew his claws in a daze. After the little lion Ban approached, he slowly calmed down, patted him twice with his claws, and lay on the ground again.
Samuel Osvid squinted at them, not knowing what he remembered. After a long while, he raised his eyebrows and whispered, "Yes, you still remember your son."
It was blind in both eyes, lame in one leg, and had a stupid mind and no memory. It was completely different from what it was ten years ago. The only things it remembered were:
He is a warrior.
He also has a son.
