Infinite Bloodcore

Chapter 63: I will never eat people

Cang Xu cast a surprised look. This was the first time he heard this secret. It turned out that Zidi and Zhenjin were so closely related.

"Lord Zhenjin, you are a true knight." The old scholar expressed heartfelt admiration, "Since we have been together, your noble conduct has always been our spiritual banner."

"We may still have hope."

"These scorpion tails are very sharp. Depending on your strength, sir, throwing the scorpion tails is likely to cause fatal damage to the gun scorpions."

"We can rely on the cave and launch attacks from time to time. If the Spear Scorpions come to attack, we will hide in."

Cang Xu came up with a good tactic.

A memory that Zhenjin recovered made him very powerful in throwing weapons.

When he killed the flying squirrels, Cang Xu was very impressed.

But Zhen Jin shook his head slightly and said frankly: "It may be very small."

There was no increase in fighting spirit. The reason why he attacked Flying Squirrel before was because the mutation was activated, causing his arms to swell and explode with power that exceeded the limit of Zhenjin's body at that moment.

But now, the young knight seems to have lost the ability to mutate.

Whether it was provoking the scorpions before, breaking out of the lizard nest, or the fierce battle with the Silver Spear Scorpion not long ago, there was always a life and death crisis.

Zhenjin relied on his own fighting qualities to avoid these crises.

From beginning to end, no mutation occurred.

At the critical moment of life and death, the ability to mutate was not stimulated.

"It seems that the magic power of the heart magic crystal is too little."

There are actually ways to replenish magic power.

For example, eating monster meat and drinking monster blood. But although the blood of the Monkey Tail Brown Bear had been processed by Zi Di and several tubes were saved, they were all given to Acupuncture Gold.

But because of the sandstorm, these tubes of Warcraft blood were lost.

Now there is no similar potion in Zidi's small leather bag.

"I'm afraid that in this case, I can't mutate anymore."

Without mutation, if the young knight throws these scorpion tails solely by human power, the effect will be very poor. Without the blessing of speed and throwing power, there is no way to threaten the Gun Scorpion.

"Isn't this the case?" Cang Xu sighed, with a look of disappointment on his face.

Zhen Jin handed the water bag to Zidi. The girl gradually stopped sobbing and swallowed the water in small sips. With the help of the act of eating, the mood gradually stabilizes.

There was a deathly silence in the cave.

We have truly reached the end of our rope.

After a long time.

"Sir, you should have a drink of water too." The girl in her arms handed the water bag to Zhen Jin again.

Acupuncture took a sip to moisten his throat, which was as dry as a desert.

The air in the cave is no longer as pungent as before, and people's adaptability sometimes exceeds their expectations.

Furthermore, under such circumstances, what can you do even if you don’t adapt?

"Sir, let's go." Zi Di persuaded in a low voice.

Zhen Jin made up his mind and nodded in response: "I will leave. I will set off at dawn. After I rush out, I will try to attract the Spear Scorpion. You can take the opportunity to leave here and go separately."

Although he really wanted to protect Zidi, Zhen Jin knew in his heart that among the three of them, he was the only one who could shoulder the important task of luring away the scorpions.

This is the last chance.

I chose to escape during the day because the ground here is uneven, with many deep pits and magma traps. Before the magma erupts during the day, gray smoke will first erupt. But at night, the smoke is difficult to detect with the human eye, which is very dangerous.

"Okay." Zidi's heart trembled, and she approved Zhenjin's escape plan.

Cang Xu also nodded and said nothing.

Everyone knows that such an escape plan is very crude and the hope of escape is very slim, but what else can be done?

It's almost like dying.

But what can be done?

This is the last resort.

Being held in Zhen Jin's arms, Zidi fell asleep.

She drank some water, and there was a sound of hunger in her belly, but Zidi didn't notice it and fell into a deep sleep.

This was the most solid sleep she had ever had in the desert.

Perhaps, it was also the last sleep of her life.

Acupuncture did not sleep.

He looked at the girl curled up in his arms, and the love and compassion in his heart became stronger. He felt that the latter was like a skinny kitten that had been wandering for a long time.

Bai Ya is still unconscious.

Most of the exploration team members were killed, but he is still alive now.

But if he doesn't wake up, he will be buried here.

Time passed slowly, midnight passed, around three or four o'clock, Cang Xu slowly opened his eyes.

The old scholar let out a deep sigh: "My lord, you are too hungry."

Zhen Jin fell asleep and opened his eyes slightly.

This is indeed the case.

The stronger the Dou Qi practitioner, the more nutrients he needs to absorb. The steel-armored Grand Duke in the northern empire eats three meals of sub-dragon meat every day, and the Fire Phoenix Prince of the Elf Empire eats two kilograms of hoarfrost spirit deer antlers every day.

Zhen Jin was now sitting against the wall of the cave, not even daring to move. He was afraid of wasting energy needlessly. Even a little more energy would be valuable for the fierce battle tomorrow morning, so he had to save as much as possible.

"Master Zhenjin, you need food very much now." Cang Xu's voice came, his tone a little heavier than before.

Zhen Jin opened his eyes completely and saw the grief and indifference reflected in Cang Xu's gray eyes.

Zhenjin snorted coldly.

He knew what Cang Xu meant. The food the latter was referring to was white buds!

However, asking a Templar to eat people? This is simply a fantasy! Ugly suggestion.

"Sir, you are too hungry. How can you fight without strength? Bai Ya's flesh is our only food, and his blood can also replace water."

"Shut up." Zhen Jin shouted in a low voice, with anger in his eyes, "I will never kill innocent people because of myself. If you were Bai Ya, would you want to be treated as food?"

Cang Xu was silent for a moment, and then suddenly smiled. His smile was full of bitterness, and he seemed to be relieved.

Cang Xu raised his head and took a deep breath, then said something shocking: "Then please eat me first."

Zhen Jin was stunned.

Seeing the confusion on Zhen Jin's face, Cang Xu smiled and said: "Master Zhen Jin may have some misunderstandings about me. I am not afraid of death. If I live to my age, there is nothing I can't understand. What? I'm just afraid that my pursuits and dreams won't be realized. So, I know how to cherish my life far better than those young people, because I know that I don't have many days left and my time is precious."

"However, if fate gives me an ending, what can I do? I have fought with all my strength and argued with my own life. The struggle may be ridiculous, pitiful, and sad, but I have no regrets."

"Lord Zhenjin." Cang Xu looked at Zhenjin deeply, very seriously, "Although I have not been with you for a long time, I know very well that you are a noble character and a true Templar. .You are brave and strong, and you face difficulties. No strong enemy can defeat the flag in your heart. Although you have strength far beyond ordinary people and outstanding talents, you have always remained humble and full of thirst for knowledge. Even though you are young , but your adaptability is extraordinary, and your growth during this period of time is amazing. You are of noble origin, but you still maintain an equal attitude towards people with lower status than you, which is especially valuable."

"Sir, there is basically no hope for Miss Zidi and I to break out early tomorrow morning. The scorpions will not let us go, and any ordinary gun scorpion can easily claim our lives. "

"The only one who is most likely to survive is you, my lord."

"However, sir, in your current state, can you escape?"

Cang Xu shook his head: "You don't even have confidence in yourself."

"Before that, any food can increase the probability of your survival."

"If you put aside morality and emotion, eating the white bud is the wisest decision. Your Excellency, you won't deny this, right?"

Zhen Jin said nothing.

Cangxu continued: "I once read the ogre's notes. If we look at food standards, young white buds are more tender and nutritious than mine. But if I serve as food, it can be considered qualified. .”

"The most important thing is that I am different from Bai Ya. I am willing to dedicate myself. So sir, you are not a devil who kills innocent people, but a savior. The difference is that you are not saving the lives of the weak, but It is a trivial wish of a weak person before he dies. Before I die, I have a small request, and I hope you can agree to it."

Cang Xu has a very deep understanding of his own situation.

He was too old, and breaking out tomorrow morning was almost certain to result in death. In addition, he had something to ask for, so he sacrificed himself in order to help realize his last wish.

Zhen Jin sighed, shook his head and said: "I will never eat anyone, no matter you or Bai Ya. Because I am a knight, a Templar! Destiny favors the strong, but never pities those who accept their fate. .Cangxu, if you think you are bound to die, then you are really dead."

"However, if you have any last wishes, you can tell them. I promise you that I will try my best to help you achieve it without violating my principles."
