Chapter 2: Saviors

Once Qian Qian saw the person for the first time, a feeling arose in her heart. The person was wounded.

In a flash, a scene of a man facing strong magic beasts and bravely fighting appeared in her mind, a fight so intense that it had clouded the sky and the sun and moon’s rays were unable to penetrate through, until in the end, the person had killed the magic beast with great effort, but because he had received wounds from fighting, he traveled hurried, and the wound was too severe, so he finally dropped to the ground underneath the tree, beside the road.

Thinking of this, tiny stars sparkled in Qian Qian’s eyes, her curiosity growing large.

Inevitably, when someone was curious, their guts would be rather large. Qian Qian didn’t say a word to her companions, and just went up and gave a push. If the person had any evil intentions, who knows how many times the current Qian Qian would have died. Fortunately, the person didn’t make any movements.

Ramos waited for some people, then immediately went forward, propping up the person with Qian Qian.

Now, everybody saw his face clearly. It wasn’t clear if he was handsome, at best he could be considered a pa.s.s. His features were very distinct, and rather heroic. His body looked pretty st.u.r.dy, but currently, his chest was already very visibly bloodied.

Immediately, Ramos moved his index finger in front of that person’s nose. Not bad, he was still breathing, not a dead person.

“Derry, go report to captain. He’s no dead for the time being, ” Ramos ordered. Soon after, he surveyed everybody and saw the green clothed woman. Immediately, he said, “Miss Luna, we’ll be troubling you again.”

The woman named Luna also didn’t delay, and only walked up to the stranger, then started chanting something. Her hand movements didn’t stop, one holding a magic wand, the other seeming like it was making a seal. Then, everybody felt the surrounding air’s energy slightly fluctuate, like there were soft, blue rays of light gathering at the man’s chest. The stranger’s wound seemed to be alive as it started to gradually fuse.

It wasn’t until Luna looked tired that the blue light slowly faded away. The wound that had been saturated with the light was mysteriously healed completely.

Next, everyone could only wait for Li Lin’s arrival.

Ramos looked at the man’s lips that were already so dry, it had cracked beyond recognition, and then asked, “Who has water on them?”

All the mercenaries had canteens on them, but they all had wine inside. Only Qian Qian brought out the canteen she was carrying and went over to pour him some water, but because the other was still unconscious, he didn’t feel anything, and almost all the water flowed onto the ground from the corner of his mouth. Without a choice, Rmous supported his neck and tilted up his head with one hand, and used his other hand to open his mouth. Then Qian Qian approached again with the canteen and fed him some water.

After she saw his mouth move, Qian Qian took back her water canteen. Suddenly, she thought about how she had used the canteen herself, but just now she had poured it onto a stranger’s mouth.

Qian Qian was as stealthy as a thief as she secretly wiped the canteen with the cuff of her sleeve.

Now the injured person slightly opened their eyes.

“h.e.l.lo, stranger! How do you feel?” Ramos inquired quietly, but the stranger seemed a little too unfit to answer. Perhaps his injuries were too severe, or perhaps it was because he had just woken up and wasn’t fully awake yet. He looked clearly exhausted. After he came back to his senses, there was a soft light in his eyes, making everybody feel a bit of warmth.

He didn’t seen to be a bad person, Qian Qian judged internally. Li Lin had once told her that it was easiest to judge a person by their gaze and even said that the eyes were the windows to the soul. Qian Qian believed that a person with a pair of such pure and kind eyes couldn’t be a bad person. Although everybody else’s thoughts weren’t as meticulous as Qian Qian’s, they also felt that the stranger seemed to be a good person.

The man looked at everybody. Only after he rested his head on Ramos’s shoulder for a long time did he start to open his mouth with difficulty, saying, “H, h.e.l.lo.” His voice was husky, like his throat had been choked by someone. His stuttered words seemed to have cost him a great amount of effort.
