Footsteps followed closely behind, accompanied by urgent shouts!

There wasn't time to examine the bone fragments.

Victor grabbed him and looked back, a look of horror creeping into his heart.

A young Western girl holding a magic wand was seen running wildly, her blonde hair flowing in the wind, her sculpted features slightly furrowed with tension.

"Aww!"

Three wolves, each in a different state of decay, roared and charged after their opponent, their white pupils gleaming with a blue light, and drool flying from their mouths!

Four figures moved with incredible speed, and in an instant they were about to reach Viktor.

"grass!"

He instinctively reached for his waist, only to find he had no gun. He could only curse under his breath and turn to run away.

His arms swung at a lightning speed, almost surpassing Bolt's.

The surrounding giant trees kept receding, and the stench of decay poured into my mouth like seawater.

But Viktor couldn't care less about any of that; only one thought occupied his mind:

Shake off those damn wolves!

But he clearly overestimated his own thin frame and underestimated the people behind him.

After running only ten meters or so, he felt his legs go weak and his speed decreased significantly.

Then a beautiful figure brushed past him like the wind.

The stench and fishy smell emanating from the three hungry wolves followed closely behind!

No matter how fast a person is, how can they outrun a four-legged animal, especially a corrupt wolf!

Victor glanced back and saw that the three big guys were already close by, and he was afraid he would not be able to escape.

Even so, he did not give up.

His gaze swept over the three demonic wolves, trying to find a flaw.

Suddenly, he realized that the three demonic wolves were less than half a meter away from him, but their heads were always held high and their eyes never looked down.

It seems I can't arouse their interest at all.

A thought flashed through his mind, and he immediately had a new idea, slowing his pace once again.

"Hey, what do you think you're doing!"

The girl in front seemed to notice his unusual behavior and turned around to call out.

However, Victor ignored her completely, and seized the opportunity when a wolf raised its body as it charged, and slid in to tackle it.

Things went as he expected.

He easily passed under the demonic wolf, which acted as if it didn't see him, and charged straight towards the girl!

"..."

Viktor straightened up and watched the three-headed wolf disappear into the distance, his expression unreadable.

They actually guessed right!

The three demonic wolves' target from the very beginning was the girl, not themselves.

Thinking this, he glanced back at the girl's astonished expression and quickly rushed in the opposite direction.

A hero rescuing a damsel in distress is out of the question; don't treat a police officer's life like it's nothing.

Moreover, the girl's presence here suggests she must possess some special abilities.

Hopefully, the other side will get rid of those three wolves soon.

Thinking of this, and recalling the opponent's incredible speed, Victor changed direction again, this time specifically heading towards an area with many trees.

As he ran, he took the fragment from his pocket.

[Eroded skull fragment (green)]

[Note: A mage perished in the Decaying Forest, his powerful magic sealed within, and after being corroded, he became part of the decaying forest.]

[Effect: Son of Thorns - Wearing this item grants citizenship of the Decaying Forest. It also increases the wearer's magical affinity, doubles cultivation efficiency, and provides the protection of the Decaying Forest.]

After reading the explanation of the effects of the bone fragments, Victor's pace slowed down, and his furrowed brows gradually relaxed.

What is this? An ID card from a corrupt land?

"equipment."

As soon as he thought of it, the bone fragment in his hand vanished into thin air.

Below his field of vision appeared a semi-transparent black equipment slot, with a total of 10 slots.

At this point, the first slot has been occupied by the [Eroded Skull Fragment (Green)].

Viktor made another thought, and the equipment slot vanished instantly, as if it had never existed.

But he clearly felt that something had appeared inside him, and something in the air was attracting him.

If I remember correctly, the bone fragments gave me a magical affinity effect.

and......

Within moments of equipping the bone fragments, the surrounding mist began to thin, and even the stench seemed less noticeable.

The fat maggots that had been approaching him also moved away.

Is this the effect of the Thorn Child?!

I have truly become a citizen of this place.

Viktor's lips twitched uncontrollably a few times, then he realized... turning his lips down was still too difficult.

He only obtained a green piece of equipment, yet he now has the right to not eat beef in the Decaying Forest.

It's really hard to hold back a laugh.

He forced a smile, then suppressed it as he mentally reviewed the scene of the murder.

Although he had received protection, he was still just a commoner. If he were to actually challenge those three big dogs or venture deep into the Decaying Forest, something terrible would definitely happen.

And it will be dark soon, so the Decaying Forest isn't necessarily safe.

Viktor's expression calmed down, and he started walking towards the direction of his home, the direction he remembered.

But they hadn't gone very far.

A rumbling sound came from behind.

He was somewhat bewildered and worried that his identity might be invalid.

But when he looked up toward the source of the sound, he was immediately surprised.

The newcomer turned out to be a blonde girl with three large dogs.

"Thank goodness, you're alright!"

Upon seeing the stunned Viktor, the other party's first reaction was joy, but then their expression turned serious:

"Quickly, I'll use magic to help you leave!" she shouted as she rushed towards him.

But this time, a change appeared on the rotting faces of the three large dogs.

Three pairs of eerie green eyes swept towards Viktor, and they all howled in unison!

Three shouts instantly echoed in Viktor's mind:

"Hey kid over there, stop her!"

"Don't let this human escape!"

"Kill her!"

Viktor's gaze swept over the ugly face of the three-headed wolf, then fell upon the delicate-looking girl.

Seeing the other person's anxious expression, he felt a little puzzled.

What did the other party do to provoke such a murderous intent?

He hesitated.

Can I stop this guy who can kill a slime with a single fireball?

I'll die.

But when Victor glanced again at the ferocious three-headed wolf behind the other side...

He still chose to walk forward quickly.

"roar!"

Upon seeing this, the wolves howled excitedly.

The blonde girl felt a sense of unease upon seeing Viktor's actions.

She had a feeling something was wrong when the boy ran away in front of the rotting wolf.

At this moment, he saw that the other party did not run away, but instead walked towards him.

That uneasy feeling grew stronger and stronger!

As her thoughts raced, she gripped her wand tightly, about to unleash a fireball, when the boy slowly spoke:

"Stop, I have something to tell you."

As he spoke, Viktor smiled and blocked her path.

The girl's unease reached its peak, and she thought that the other person had realized her intentions. Her previous worry about the other person sank to the bottom.

Her small mouth was slightly open, but she didn't say anything. She just slowed down and walked up to Victor.

"Hoo! (Well done, kid!)"

The three-headed wolf gradually slowed down, howling excitedly as it strode closer.

In response to their praise, Victor nodded slightly and then stared at the girl for a closer look.

With the help of the bone fragment, he could sense the depletion of the other person's magical power and even detect a trace of the other person's disappointment.

Victor raised his hand, signaling the three-headed wolf to stop.

Looking at the Thorn Children before them, they did not ask any questions, but instead stopped moving forward and remained to observe.

Seeing this, Victor felt reassured and softly asked the girl:

"If I'm not mistaken, you were the one who threw the fireball earlier?"
