NGNL: Can't humans do that

Chapter 17: Chapter 17: Search



The strong vitality of the Orcs made this battle last for quite a long time, and the Werebeast should have adopted a group hunting tactic, just like a wolf pack in pursuit - they were relatively weak and did not want to suffer too many losses, and this strategy also greatly prolonged the duration of this encounter.

Crawling along the inclined cracks, Su'er carefully pulled the hood a little tighter, covering his platinum-colored hair and looking out vigilantly. The buzzing sound in his mind had become weaker, but Su'er mood did not improve at all.

He had already discovered it.

Even though the noise in his mind had weakened, the sound coming from his left side and the sound coming from the right side were completely different in loudness. He tilted his head to listen in the direction of the battlefield, and then switched to the other side to listen - a completely opposite contrast.

Although Su'er had a vague guess in his mind when he found himself in the cave and didn't hear the fighting sound coming from outside the cave before Lenny and the others left, he could still explain it by saying that his brain was groggy and full of buzzing sounds after escaping death, but such an explanation could no longer deceive himself now.

The sound that his left ear could receive was so weak that it was almost inaudible.

According to logic, it should be the result of the extremely close-range air explosion sound caused by the Orc chasing and hitting the white-haired Werebeast before he fell off the cliff with Ivan in his arms.

He was just affected.

Compared with the result that both of them Survived smoothly, the price of only losing hearing in one ear was really worthwhile. Su'er could even brag to Riku with a smile after returning.

Therefore, the reason why Su'er mood has not improved until now is not because he lost one side of his hearing, but because in the thing he is about to do, he is likely to encounter avoidable dangers due to such accidents due to his reduced perception ability, and even bear the cost of failure.

Contradictory, he hesitated whether to continue this expedition. From the perspective of the most stable option, returning immediately and organizing the migration of people in the settlement to avoid the possible search and hunting of the Werebeast is undoubtedly the safest option, but this will inevitably retain a huge hidden danger - in the white-haired Werebeast Asano Shirasu, who doesn't know what he has in mind, Su'er must have kept a huge secret that can even make the powerless beasts stand up straight and despise the Werebeast, that is, if he passes the message back, from then on, humans will no longer be a beast without threat to the Werebeast.

This deeply violates the rule that the settlement has always adhered to that no threat can be generated. It is a trouble caused by Su'er himself, and it comes from the trouble that no one will believe him even if he tells it.

Moreover, under the careful leadership of Riku and him, the settlement has gradually grown and even has a scale of more than tens of thousands of people. When so many people migrate, all the possible dangers they may encounter cannot be ignored. To take a step back, even if the expedition team has been constantly exploring in the past five years, there are really very few places suitable for the settlement with an increasing population to Survive safely, and every place is worth cherishing.

So, this is why Su'er still stays here.

He wants to kill Asano Shirasu.

Sorry, I joked beyond my ability.

Su'er just wants to see Asano Shirasu body with his own eyes, even if there are only relics, broken armor, broken hands and feet, torn scalp - anything is fine.

All the characteristics of the Werebeast have been deeply engraved in Su'er Heart. If he sees it, he will definitely recognize it at first sight.

If he sees it...

——————————————

No.

This one is not either.

This one here... is still not.

The Werebeast had not yet had the aftertaste of collecting the bodies of their dead companions in a tense and fierce war, so Su'er got the opportunity to quietly approach and investigate.

He struggled to pry open the dead Orc's tightly clenched palm. These big guys who were extremely powerful even in death really took Su'er a lot of effort, but what he found from the opened palm was a few pieces of reddish-brown hair mixed in the broken armor.

Obviously, this was not the hair color of the white-haired Werebeast.

Frowning tightly, a guess that Su'er was very reluctant to accept was constantly lingering in his Heart-whether the white-haired Werebeast who had broken an arm when he and Ivan escaped had evacuated to a safe place to recuperate after his companions arrived.

But after thinking several times, Su'er still gave up this guess.

Because that was a veteran.

Asano Shirasu casually took off his mask to intimidate Su'er, but his face was exposed to Su'er. The wrinkles and old look of the old man who had lost too much vitality for some unknown reason, the blind eyes, and the hideous wounds on his face proved to Su'er that Asano Shirasu was a veteran who had fought countless wars for his tribe.

Would such a veteran retreat at this time?

Su'er judgment was that he would not.

Rather than returning with a disability and consuming the tribe's food in vain, Su'er believed that Asano Shirasu would choose to burn his life on this battlefield and do his last bit of strength for his tribe. This was also the awareness of every lower race that had supported this moment in this battle without seeing the sun.

And this time, Su'er was betting on Asano Shirasu love for the tribe.

Whoosh!!!

Something swirled over Su'er head, like half of Orc's arm, and it was so fast that it was impossible to see clearly.

It has to be said that the explosive power of some of the Werebeast is too amazing. They can even tear the arm of an orc apart.

Looking at the huge claw marks on the stone wall next to him, Su'er bent his body and trotted to hide quickly.

He had to speed up. Judging from the sparse roars of the orcs, this small-scale war should be coming to an end. The Werebeast have reinforcements, but the number of this team of reckless orcs has not increased. In such a tight battle, Asano Shirasu naturally could not tell his companions about what he found today about the monkey, even if this weak monkey seemed to have some secrets, but it would be different after the battle.

Gritting his teeth, Su'er wrapped the animal skin tightly on his body and groped along the cracks in the stone wall towards the center of the battlefield.
