foreigner's journey

Chapter 603 When the Sun Died for the Fifth Time
A naked 'man' lay quietly on the cold and wet ground, motionless as if dead, only the head was wearing a helmet with an eagle beak.

"G, Griffith?"

Gus walked over to help the figure up, his arm, which would not shake even if he swung his sword a thousand times, trembled slightly at this moment.

I saw that the person in his arms was as thin as a stick, and the skin of his whole body was tightly attached to the bones.The ribs, abdomen, chest, arms, neck, and thighs can be seen with large ugly scars and brand marks that have been peeled everywhere. The tendons in the hands and feet have been picked, all nails have been pulled out, and even the tongue has been cut off.The bright red behelette that Griffith had been wearing since she was a child was also missing.

It is Griffith, but the Griffith in front of him has been completely abolished.

The furious Gus bulged his arms, and even directly tore off the lock on the eagle's beaked helmet.Lifting off the visor, he was shocked to find that half of Griffith's face had been peeled off, and the flowing silver long hair was only a few strokes left, because most of the scalp had also been peeled off.

The eagle has lost its wings and cannot soar in the sky again.

The rest of the people approached, and Casca was instantly stunned.Jiedu and Bibin were stunned for a moment to react, and quickly put the visor back together and stopped the princess from approaching this side.

At this time, Griffith, who was being held by Gus, woke up and saw Gus's face with bloodshot eyes. For a while, emotions of astonishment, fear, shame, and anger were mixed in his eyes.His lips trembled as he silently chanted Gus's name, his originally powerless arm tremblingly lifted up with all his strength, and just like that grabbed Gus's neck.

Gus!Gus!It's you!Because of you, I am in this situation!Why, why did you leave me?why!
Jie Du saw Griffith strangling Gus's neck, and was about to speak to stop him.Gus hugged Griffith tightly without feeling anything, and tears could not help but shed tears in the corners of his eyes: "Sorry...it's all because of me, sorry Griffith..."

Tears fell drop by drop on the cold eagle-beaked helmet, and dripped down the helmet on Griffith's skinless face.

Gradually, the anger and resentment in Griffith's eyes disappeared, and he put his weak and skinny hands on Gus's, and slowly closed his eyes.

"Who is it!" "It's a jailbreaker!" Noisy voices came from outside, and dense circles of torches appeared on the stairs. It seemed that the two dead soldiers at the gate of the prison tower had been found.

Kaska grabbed Gus by the shoulder anxiously: "Gus, there are too many people outside, for now... Gus?"

I saw Gus handing Griffith in his arms to Bibin, and then drew the giant sword behind his back. The overwhelming ominous aura even made the legs of the princess and her maid go weak.

"Drink ah ah ah!!"

Like a raging wolf rushing into the flock of sheep, Gus brandished a huge sword and rushed into the enemy line alone, running up the spiral stairs, beheading all the soldiers he passed, blood stained. Red steps.

"Okay, that's amazing..." Casca stared blankly for a few seconds, then quickly came back to her senses: "Follow up quickly, don't be left behind by Gus."

Bibbin hugged Griffith and followed closely behind, and Jiedu kept flying knives to kill the soldiers holding crossbows for Gus. Casca protected the princess and her maid, and a group of people followed closely behind. Si ran up behind him.

Looking at the furious wolf, Griffith had mixed feelings in his heart.He has become stronger again, much stronger than a year ago, and what about me?
Griffith's eyes fell on his skinny arm, let alone a sword, he couldn't even hold a cup, and even walking was a luxury.I am no longer the white eagle that others need to look up to, but a waste that will crawl in the mud and water for the rest of my life.

With Gus at the vanguard, the crowd quickly returned to the ground.After finding the pre-prepared carriage and horses, before even saying goodbye to the princess, everyone in the Eagle Group drove the carriage and rushed out of the city.

In a hurry, there were only a few hundred regular troops forming a pursuit team, but they were ambushed by the Eagles not long after chasing out of the city.

After a fierce battle, they finally repelled this wave of chasing troops and successfully rescued Griffith.

Fleeing all the way to a slightly safer plain, the members of the Eagle Group seized the time to rest and excitedly discussed with each other what Griffith would do after his return.These young people joined the Eagle Group because they were attracted by Griffith's charisma. They believed in Griffith from the bottom of their hearts.As long as that white eagle returns to his eagle's nest, the Eagle Group will surely rise again!

However, when they really saw Griffith's horror, everyone fell silent.

Can't speak, can't hold a sword, can't even walk.Griffith was no longer the invincible white eagle, but a useless man who could not speak, command battles or ride a horse.

The originally excited mood was poured cold water severely, and the Eagle Group was confused, not knowing what to do next.

The breeze was warm, blowing the green grass on the plain and making waves.

Gus was lying on the grass with his arms behind his head, and Casca stood beside him: "What are your plans next?"

"What nonsense are you asking?" Gus stood up and looked at the beautiful woman he fell in love with: "Come with me."

"Tch, who is asking this?" With the arrogant words in her mouth, the sorrow on Kaska's face was reduced a lot, and she showed a faint smile: "I can't go with you, Gus. Griffith still Needing my care, he's become like this, I can't leave him."

All this was seen by Griffith in the carriage next to him.Once upon a time, Kasca was so adoring and obsessed with herself, but now, she only has Gus in her eyes.That's right, she has become a useless person, how can she continue to look at herself in the usual way?Longing turned into pity.

I don't need pity.

At this time, a familiar voice sounded: "Gus! Casca!"

It was Rickett, his appearance hadn't changed much from a year ago, he was still thin and small.He waved his hands and ran towards this side. For some reason, Griffith was very resistant to letting Rickett see himself now.Could it be that the sorcerer and the knight had already foreseen what they would look like, so they cast their favor on Gus and Rickett?
"Oh, Rickett." Gus smiled and waved to Rickett, but found that Rickett was followed by many members of the Eagles, most of them were members of the stormtroopers: "Captain! Leave us quietly like before?"

"If you really want to do that, take us away!" Gaston, the deputy captain of the stormtroopers, said loudly.Compared with Griffith, Gaston admires the stormtrooper captain Gus more, which is also what they think.

"This is the unanimous decision of our stormtroopers!"

"That's right, we can still fight! Whether it's going to be a bodyguard with the captain, a guard of a business group, or going back to be a farmer, we will follow you, the captain!"

"Haha, we are fugitives no matter where we go, let's act together. As long as the captain is here, we will not be afraid of difficulties."

"Please Captain!"

Looking at those expectant eyes, Gus couldn't say the words of rejection.

"I..." He looked at Casca again, and finally gritted his teeth and made up his mind: "I won't leave, I will stay in the Eagle Group."

In the carriage compartment, Griffith's eyes were bloodshot.Want to replace me, Gus?Do you want me to look up at your existence from the perspective of a cripple, Gus! !

No, I would rather die.

While everyone was talking, the neighing sound of horses suddenly came from the carriage not far away, and the carriage rushed forward quickly with a bang.

"Griffith!? What's going on, is the horse frightened?" Gus was shocked, and Kaska's face turned pale: "Could it be that Griffith heard our conversation just now?"

"How come, he is so reluctant to crawl... Go and tell Jiedu and the others, I will go after them first!"

Gus mounted the horse and gave chase.

As dusk approached, the sky darkened.

Griffith lay prone on the front of the carriage, biting the reins tightly with the few remaining teeth. The carriage was pulled by two frightened horses and galloped all the way down the hill.

In a trance, Griffith seemed to see a boy running in front of him. The boy with silver hair was running towards the shining and gorgeous castle standing on the cliff in his dream.

I've been resting for too long, it won't work if I don't run again... This game is not over yet, and my ambition has not been achieved yet.

bang!The wheels collided with the raised stones, the carriage shook violently and then completely overturned, and Griffith was also thrown violently.

Uninjured, he fell into the shallow water, but couldn't even stand up.

Strong thoughts of suicide dominated his mind, and it happened that there was a raised stubble in the water.Griffith managed to crawl over, pointing his neck at the stubble.

The stubble spiked on the throat, pierced the skin, and blood flowed.But Griffith didn't dare to poke any further, he was afraid.

Looking at the blood flowing on the broken stubble he avoided, Griffith slapped the water feebly, resenting his own cowardice.Blood from the wound on his neck trickled down his arms.

Suddenly, he seemed to have touched something under the water, and slowly raised his arm.

The long-lost bright red Behelette was quietly lying in his palm at this moment.

It is already at the predetermined place, waiting for the destined person.

In the distance, Gus was charging towards here on horseback.Further away, everyone in the Eagle Group was galloping towards this side.

At some point, the sunlight above the head gradually dimmed, and something was eroding the sun.

"The fifth death of the sun... Apocalypse?" Rickett raised his head and murmured.

At the same time, in the absolutely silent outer space, a human figure was floating quietly, motionless.

Suddenly, he slowly opened his eyes, and an incomparably blazing light bloomed from them.

it's time.
