Durin's Diary

Chapter 453 Awakening the Woods
Durin saw the Flesh-Winged Devourer, which screamed and pounced into the woods.

So Du Lin, who already had the advantage of height difference, began to dive and chose to open fire without hesitation.

The machine gun directly opened a row of holes in its body, and the flesh-winged devourer plunged into the woods.

·The blast wave was found below, not far from the Fleshwing Devourer.

Eleven detected the explosion and immediately alerted Du Lin.

It must be Alyssa. Du Lin remembered correctly that the girl brought a disposable rocket-propelled grenade, which was used by fire reconnaissance troops. It was particularly light and could be thrown away after use.

Considering that there were still people on the ground, Du Lin did not use 120 to open the head of the male insect when he passed through the field. Instead, he used the machine gun to plow another round, and then began to fly low.

Lina had already landed at a low altitude. As soon as she landed with the hammer in her hand, she shouted, "We found Melinda and Alyssa!"

Just find it.

After putting away his weapons, Du Lin got down from the ground and happily hugged his little deer girl.

Alyssa kissed Du Lin happily: “My dear, you are so handsome.”

"I've always been this handsome." After patting the girl's silly head, Du Lin turned to look at Melinda: "Is there anything I can help you with?"

"There is a wounded man." Melinda said as she took Du Lin towards the rookies.

Du Lin saw the unfortunate guy they were holding - the outer layer of flesh on his head had been half melted, and a lot of the clothes on his upper body had also melted.

My goodness, this spit from the Flesh-Wing Devourer is really deadly.

"For an injury like this, even fatal treatment might not be effective. What about his camp?" Du Lin took out holy water and asked the old hunter to wash the wound of the unlucky guy while asking him.

"Divine instructions? I believe that none of my apprentices would be extremely evil. I will take responsibility if anything happens." While washing, the old hunter asked another apprentice to take out a first aid kit from the backpack behind him.

Du Lin first gave the young man a moderate injury treatment to control the injury on his face.

After the holy water was finished washing, Durin placed his hand on the wounded man's chest and gave a divine instruction. All the injuries began to reverse in an instant, until finally, the child woke up screaming.

The injury wasn't completely healed, but the muscles had grown back. Some skin was missing, but a little powder and a bandage would be enough. Further treatment would require several months. This was because the two previous treatments were too intense, and any subsequent treatments would be ineffective, requiring further treatment.

"It's me, apprentice. You're saved." The old hunter comforted his apprentice and looked at Durin with gratitude. "Thank you. You must be Lord Durin."

The old hunter instinctively felt Dulin's strength. Although he didn't know Dulin, after seeing Dulin's interaction with the two girls, the old man was not blind, and of course he understood Dulin's identity - except for Dulin himself, he didn't know who else could communicate with these two young ladies in this way.

"It's okay, you're a good kid. I'm very happy to have saved you." Du Lin said, reaching out and patting the young man on the head. "Pay more attention to what's above your head in the future. Monsters don't just appear around you. It's better to be careful."

The old hunter stood up at this time, handed the wounded to the apprentices for treatment, and then he began to search the vicinity - the Flesh-Winged Devourer must have a nest nearby, and it would be a good thing if he could find and destroy the nest.

At this time, more and more people from all parties appeared after seeing the flares.

Patch came with everyone from the Mage Tower.

They stared at the two Flesh-Winged Devourers in amazement—not to mention the dozens of bullet holes on the male's body, the female's shattered head also gave the mages a good discussion, as they were not sure where the previous explosion came from.

Because it didn't sound like a sound that could be produced by a spell. Next up were the fearless highway police, one old and one new. When the young man saw the scene, he was stunned. It took the old man slapping him on the back of the head. Then the old policeman dismounted, inquired about the situation, and finally breathed a sigh of relief when he learned that no one had died. They had heard from the herders that their sheep had been stolen, and after seeing the signal flares, they had bravely come over to investigate out of a sense of responsibility.

Du Lin encouraged them and gave the old smoker two boxes of cigarettes - why not smoke anything else, smoke local tobacco, try some good cigarettes to heal your lungs.

The young man didn't smoke, so Du Lin didn't force him, but gave him a pistol.

After patting the young man's arm, Durin walked towards the druid who was walking over. The druid was wearing a robe woven from plants. He looked at the two insects and then looked at Durin.

I heard that druids are like psychos. They won't let you die to insects.

Daju said a little uneasily.

·That shouldn’t be the case. I scanned it. Even if Du Lin gave up one hand, he still couldn’t beat Du Lin.

Eleven scanned the strength of the person in front of him and denied this possibility.

Du Lin didn't care, but raised his hand lightly, and a wooden table and two wooden chairs grew out from the exposed tree roots on the ground.

This move finally made the druid's expression relax a little - Durin's move was a standard druid ritual. He called on the earth, and the earth responded to his call.

"I don't know why you are here, Master." Du Lin asked everyone to sit down, and then he sat down too.

He asked this question before the druid could speak.

"I came here because I saw the flare. I don't know why anyone entered the druid's forest, nor do I know why the flare was fired." The druid said after thinking for a while.

"As you can see, these monsters appeared here. They built nests, killed wild animals, and even stole the herders' sheep. If they are allowed to reproduce, this area will soon become very dangerous." Du Lin replied calmly.

"This is a natural part, Mr. Durin. There is no fixed pattern between hunter and prey in this world." The druid said as he looked at the mother insect's abdomen, where the larvae of the flesh-winged devourer were being expelled. It let out a mournful cry and instinctively wanted to escape.

Alyssa drew her pistol and pointed it at the young creature, while the druid stood up, trying to stop it.

"You said that there is no fixed pattern between hunters and prey in this world. Now my wife is the hunter, and that cub is the prey." Du Lin said as he motioned the druid to sit down.

Looking at the two tree spirits rising from the ground and vaguely surrounding him, the druid finally chose to sit down.

"I'm Zhulong. After I learned about my origins, I got to know the Changtang people. Like you druids, they're also eccentric. They say that life is about karma. In my opinion, the Flesh-Winged Devourers killing the herders' sheep is karma. They need more blood to reproduce, and since they don't have enough sheep and animals to eat, they can only attack mortals. At this moment, humans are the prey, and the Flesh-Winged Devourers are the hunters."

Du Lin watched the larva die at the hands of Alyssa's gun. He was silent for a moment, watching her use a dagger to cut open the mother insect's abdomen, drag out the still-squirming larvae one by one, and throw them to the ground. "But the hunters received the alarm from the herders, and the mages heard about the appearance of the Flesh-Wing Devourer. To ensure the continuation of human civilization, they must step forward to resolve this. At this moment, humans are the hunters, and the Flesh-Wing Devourer has become the prey."

“But that’s not the way of nature.”

"It's not the same thing after all! Civilization without humans is like an endless night! Druids are also born and raised by their parents! The teachings teach you to defend nature, but they definitely don't teach you to kill everyone for nature's sake!" Du Lin stood up and looked at the druid in front of him. "I also know a little about druidic techniques. In my eyes, all creatures compete for freedom in the frosty sky. Humans invented tools, used firearms, and stood out in this competition with nature and beasts. As the winner, there is nothing wrong with establishing civilization!"

"If you druids are dissatisfied, you can go back and ask your elders to come to me."

Then, Dulin raised the horn at his waist.

Let me awaken the woodlands.
