MTL - Orc Predator-~ ☆Chapter Deep Sleep
Wind and snow fluttered outside the window, and the icy wind swirled around the window, but it couldn't penetrate at all.
The non-orc doctor looked at Francis in horror. The latter had a strangely calm expression, and he was gently hugging the boy, including the quilt, with his long dark blue hair falling down to the ground. He seemed to be sleeping soundly, but this deep sleep had lasted for two days.
"Adel, bring in the things I asked you to prepare earlier." Francis said lightly, without taking his eyes off the boy for a moment.
"Yes." Adel responded quickly, and quickly rushed out of the room.
"What's wrong with him?" Cedric stood up and looked at his younger brother, frowning deeply.
"Do you know about the hibernation of the snake clan?" Francis quickly explained, still looking at the boy in his arms: "Reduce the metabolic rate and its life activities to the lowest level to store energy."
There were hurried footsteps outside the door, and Adel ran back with a lot of bottles and jars, followed by two orcs carrying heavy rectangular stone containers. Cedric saw that it was filled with a dark green liquid exuding a strong smell of medicine. He frowned, walked to Francis, and looked at the boy in his arms.
"I'll rearrange Ah Liu's room." Francis said, carefully putting Cecil into the stone jar.
A few days later, the second district.
Ai Wende was squatting, he felt his legs trembling, and the things on his head were shaking because of this, which made his face flushed nervously, his hands were immediately overflowing with sweat, and he didn't dare to move again.
"Straighten your back." Ah Liu said calmly.
The little female puffed up her chest cautiously, but just as she moved, the object on top of her head slipped down her hair. He subconsciously closed his eyes and waited for the sound of the heavy object falling to the ground.
It's a pity that the voice didn't sound for a long time, and he opened his eyes suspiciously, and saw the black-haired non-orc standing beside him expressionlessly, holding a thick book in his right hand.
"Keep your legs straight and keep your center of gravity steady." Ah Liu said lightly, and raised his hand to put the book on top of Ai Wende's head again. The little female took a deep breath, adjusted her posture and started a new round of attempts.
The little white tiger didn't quite understand what they were doing, so he circled around the two of them curiously, and suddenly rushed towards the motionless little brother who was in a strange posture, and just as his body flew into the air, a hand gently grabbed the back of his neck , the black-haired non-orc threw it out without looking at it. Seemingly finding it very interesting, the little white tiger changed direction and attacked again, only to be caught again and thrown out. After trying a few times, it began to feel bored, whined twice unwillingly, turned and ran away.
There was a knock at the door, and Ah Liu glanced at Ai Wende, who was already sweating, and turned to open the door. The little white tiger's eyes lit up immediately, and when the non-orc man was walking towards the door, he quickly ran a few steps and threw himself into his brother's arms. With a scream, Ai Wende lost his balance, and fell to the ground together with the little white tiger hanging on his body . The little female grinned and got up from the ground, rubbing her sore buttocks. The little white tiger was very excited because "the scheme succeeded", jumping up and down on Aiwende, wagging its tail constantly.
When he opened the door, the silver-haired orc appeared in front of him as expected, with a "Cedric" standard gentle smile on his face. Ah Liu glanced across his face and remained silent.
"This is today's prey." The silver-haired orc said, handing over the bag.
The non-orc took it silently, and finally said, "You have something to do."
This was the first time Ah Liu spoke to him since he left the medical area. Although he was not in a good mood, Cedric still couldn't help showing a gleam of joy in his eyes, waiting for the non-orc to finish speaking.
However, Ah Liu didn't speak again, and stared at him with a pair of sharp black eyes, as if he was a beast that had discovered the weakness of its prey. Cedric realized then that he was waiting for himself to speak.
There was a flash of light in the deep blue eyes, and the silver-haired orc smiled at the non-orc pretending to be relaxed, and said softly, "Have a good rest." After speaking, he spread his wings and rushed into the sky like silver arrows.
The silver light disappeared from his eyes, Ah Liu couldn't help frowning.
Cedric was keeping something from him. Since waking up, non-orcs have been clearly aware of this, and the intuition of beasts is often more acute than people think.
He looked up at the sky, narrowing his eyes slightly.
medical area.
In the small room, the originally colorful oil paintings disappeared at this time. From the ground to the ceiling, densely packed runes were engraved, and their white light flickered on and off, making the faces of several of them unclear. Above the container beside the bed, a horn exuding a faint silvery white light protruded from the wall. The white jade-like translucent texture was entangled with naturally formed light green spiral patterns. It was the horn of a unicorn. Belonging to young unicorns who died unexpectedly, kept by the Longte clan as a memorial.
Cecil lay quietly in the turquoise water, surrounded by the strong smell of herbs. If it weren't for the slight ups and downs of his chest, no one would think that the non-orc who was so pale was still alive. Francis sat next to the container and kept pouring water and various potions into it.
"His magic has awakened." Angeli Longte, a non-orc with long silver-purple hair, said lightly.
Francis couldn't help but pause when he heard this, and raised his head in doubt. Cecil's magical power was obviously sealed when he was very young, and it has been stable all these years. How could it suddenly—
"What is it?" the orc asked.
"Not sure." Angeli said, he did not inherit the analysis, so he couldn't see the magic flow of the opponent, "It can break through the seal and consume energy so quickly, it should be a very powerful annihilation magic power." He looked at the non-orc A body that is rapidly weakening, guess. In his opinion, although Francis has tried his best, this non-orc can't last long. Compared with the consumption of magic power, the life energy that the magic circle can replenish is just a drop in the bucket.
There was a faint flash of silver light outside the room, and then Cedric strode closer, his eyes swept around quickly, and his brows frowned even tighter. No one but the Dragonts could create such a powerful circle of life; likewise, nothing but the horn of a unicorn can delay death longer.
The silver-haired orc walked slowly to the side of the container, glanced at the young man inside, and then nodded to Angeli next to him: "Thank Deseven Longt and his clan for their help."
Angeli also nodded in return, then turned and left the stone room.
After the figure of the non-orc disappeared from sight, Cedric sat down by the container and gently wiped off the water droplets on Cecil's face. Then he sighed deeply and buried his head in his palms.
The blond-haired orc continued to fiddle with the things in his hands. He was so focused that he didn't even know when the silver-haired orc left.
I promised to take you to see the sunrise, before that, I will never let death take you away.
"Father." Angeli was about to bend down to salute, but was pulled up by Desavin.
"There are no outsiders, so don't be so restrained." Desaivin looked at his children at the same level, and looked at them carefully. He didn't expect that even the best-behaved Angeli was so old, and the time passed so quickly.
"En." Replied in a low voice, Angeli was a little uncomfortable. After all, he rarely had the opportunity to get close to his mother on weekdays. He hesitated and said, "I met Mr. Augustine today, he—"
"You must have expressed your gratitude to us." Desaiwen finished casually, "I'm not interested in this, so it's rare to come here, let's talk about something else." There was a flash of joy in the purple eyes. It was not easy to make the boy Augustine owe him a favor.
