Chapter 69 Are you kidding me? I can fly!
Gebula pawed at the path opened by the unidentified flying object and fled.
The two goblins had barely taken a dozen steps when the human's hands gripped the rock face!
Gebu pulled Tongtong to walk forward, but Tongtong turned around, paused for half a second, and then pushed Gebu away!
The wizard goblin turned and stared wide-eyed at Pompom, who blankly uttered a single sentence:
"I'll stab humans, then I'll find Geb! Geb, don't die!"
After saying that, he rushed towards the witch hunter vulture who had just gotten up without looking back.
"Are you stupid?!" Gebu shouted anxiously.
"I'll poke it!"
Gebu stomped his foot in anger, glanced at the escape route, then at the man in black climbing the rock face…
Then he turned and ran into the wildfire!
Poking... This was your own choice, I didn't send you to your death!
Damn it, what kind of hero is he? He's just a stupid goblin... Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!
Not daring to look back, Gebu supported himself on his thighs and ran forward, stepping on the embers, his feet burning painfully.
He covered his mouth and nose with a cloth, squinted, and groped his way forward with difficulty.
If he was being chased by flames just now, now he's inside their belly—the trees, the grass, the roasted animals are all prey that have been digested.
Is this hell on earth...?
In the dazzling firelight, the goblin lost its sense of direction and simply moved through the gaps in the flames by instinct.
It was so hot! His body was covered in charcoal, and the scorching air felt like it was baking his lungs.
I can't breathe...
Indistinctly, Gebu saw a huge shadow moving in an open area ahead.
As the giant shadow moved, a gust of wind blew, and the flowing air dispersed the smoke and dust, allowing the goblin to breathe fresh air for the first time in a long time—but only for a moment, as his vision was quickly obscured by the smoke and fire again.
Gebu quickly took a deep breath and ran towards the giant shadow.
-----------------
When the goblin reached the open area, he discovered that the guy who had carved a path through the fire was actually an old acquaintance... a familiar face.
"Eagle... Brother Eagle?"
The giant eagle was covered in charcoal and sparks, and the tip of its tail was charred, making it look rather disheveled.
The large bird was hopping anxiously towards something. Its back was to Geb, and it didn't notice the little creature.
The goblin took two steps to the side, looking past the giant eagle at the object in front of it.
Is it a ball of fire? What's so interesting about fire? There are fires everywhere.
The goblin squinted, observing carefully—
Within the fire, the fallen tree branches formed a precarious dome-like structure, and beneath them, a white, oval-shaped object could be vaguely seen…
Hey, old acquaintance, isn't that the egg? Hasn't it hatched yet?
No, no...it's practically cooked already!
Only then did the giant eagle realize there was something behind it. It quickly turned around and let out a sharp screech at the goblin.
Gebu's eardrums felt like they were about to be pierced, so he quickly reached out and stepped back: "I have no hostility, I have no hostility, Brother Eagle... oh no, I should say Sister Eagle... everything is negotiable."
The giant eagle cried out again, then turned its head and looked anxiously at the trapped egg... It could kick away the burning branches at any time, but if it did, the fragile structure might collapse, and then the egg would be completely doomed.
Gebu's eyes suddenly lit up.
still have a chance!
"Giant Eagle! Don't move! I'll do it!"
Geb shouted at the giant eagle, then strode forward—the giant eagle stretched out its claws to try to stop him, but the goblin walked resolutely, completely ignoring the giant eagle, and went straight to the fire.
The eagle watched the goblin warily, as if it recognized the green creature before it and knew what it wanted to do...
The goblin stared at the gap in the burning branch—big enough for an egg to pass through, but it had to be swift, precise, and quick! If it hesitated, the egg would be cooked.
He recalled that night he practiced Wizard's Hand alone in the secret base—the strength, frequency, rhythm... the subtle control over these movements determined how well he used Wizard's Hand.
Geb concentrated intently, summoning a wizard's hand beneath the egg, and then gently lifted it up...
A little to the left, a little to the right...
It's tilted... It needs to be symmetrical. Adjust the center of gravity...
He straightened the egg, then aimed at the gap... and tossed it upwards!
The giant eagle egg deftly slipped through the gaps in the fire, rolled in the air—and the giant eagle instantly opened its claws, trying to grab it!
The wizard's hand suddenly shifted, and the egg escaped from the eagle's claws, about to fall to the ground!
"Howl!" the giant eagle cried out in alarm.
Gebu leaped forward and opened the dimensional bag—the egg plunged entirely into the bag and vanished in an instant.
The giant eagle watched helplessly as its eggs disappeared, then angrily spread its wings and threatened to charge at the goblin!
"Wait! Giant Eagle! Wait!" Gebu clutched the dimensional bag tightly to his chest, then screamed at the giant eagle at the top of his lungs, "Take me out of here! Or I'll throw your eggs into the fire!"
The giant eagle swooped down, and Gebu quickly ducked and rolled under its legs, landing in front of the fire.
"I'm not kidding!" Geb stood up and placed the dimensional bag by the fire, pretending to throw it in.
Crack!
The bonfire cooperated perfectly, collapsing instantly and bursting into flames that licked at the dimensional bag—luckily it was a magical item, otherwise it would have definitely caught fire.
The giant eagle turned back, still intending to attack Gebu, but hesitated when it saw the bag on the fire.
"If you could understand human speech... you definitely could! Otherwise, you wouldn't have allowed me to go and collect the eggs."
The giant eagle's sharp eyes swept across the goblin's face—Geb was covered in sweat, whether from nervousness or from being roasted by the fire, it was hard to tell.
"Take me out of this forest—then I'll give the egg back to you, and I won't care where you and your mother go!"
The giant eagle paused for a moment, then suddenly flapped its wings, a strong wind scattering the flames—Gebu couldn't open his eyes from the wind, only hearing the giant eagle take off, the wind blowing in front of him, the wind blowing on his head, and a sharp pain in the back of his neck—
When he opened his eyes again, Gebu's feet were already off the ground.
He was so scared he almost peed his pants, and quickly grabbed the dimensional bag tightly to his chest!
The eagle is clutching me, and I'm clutching the egg... Why does this scene look so familiar?!
The giant eagle was incredibly fast; in just a few seconds, Gebu was completely out of the sea of fire.
The smoke and dust from the forest fire blotted out the sun, and the flames were so intense that night was like day.
Gebu was trapped in the giant eagle's talons, his face smoky, the cold wind chilling his belly—
The objects in front of them shrank rapidly, and on the cliff, two tiny shadows were locked in a fierce struggle.
That was... a poke?! This bastard's pretty good! He's still alive!
Gebu's mood brightened instantly, and he quickly used a communication spell to speak to the giant eagle:
"I have two more requests... I swear, just these two, that's all."
"First, let me ride on it, it's too cold down there..."
"Second, we'll stop at one station to pick someone up..."
The giant eagle ignored him.
Gebu untied the opening of the dimensional bag.
"I won't say it a second time."
The giant eagle let out an impatient screech, then flicked its talons upwards, tossing Gebu into the air!
"Aaaaaaah!"
The eagle turned around, made a big loop, and caught Gebu with its back.
Geb clung tightly to the feathers on the eagle's neck.
"…Great! Now, go pick them up! Drive faster!"
"howl!"
-----------------
The witch hunter vulture deflected the red-eyed goblin's thrust, grabbed its dagger with his other hand, twisted it, disarmed the goblin, and threw it off the cliff.
He kicked the human, broke free, and clutched the remaining dagger, his red eyes filled with murderous intent.
A goblin with such skill… It seems I underestimated these little beasts. The vulture thought.
Suddenly, Tongtong rolled forward, and a dagger slashed towards the human's ankle where the armor met!
The vulture calmly took half a step back, the goblin missed its target and tried to retreat—but the human withdrew its foot and delivered a flying kick straight to the goblin's face!
The dagger flew out and landed to the side.
The witch hunter took two steps forward, grabbed the hilt of his sword with both hands, and thrust it downwards!
In an instant, Tongtong flipped over, his left and right legs splitting into a V-shape, and his sword was stuck in the mud between his legs, only three centimeters away from the goblin's egg!
The vulture pushed the sword upwards, scrambling and scraping its way up the floor, desperately trying to protect its eggs!
Just then, whoosh! A flaming arrow struck the witch hunter in the back! Caught off guard, he stumbled forward.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Poopo rolled a few times, then got up and ran away. The witch hunter, regaining his senses, turned around—
The giant eagle crashed down, raising a cloud of dust!
Vulture and Pompom both froze on the spot.
Gebu poked his head out from behind the giant eagle's back. He leaned forward, grabbing the eagle's feathers with one hand and stretching the other to its limit. He shouted at Tongtong:
"Stab, hand!"
Tongtong quickly ran up, grabbed Gebu's hand, climbed up by stepping on the giant eagle's body, and straddled Gebu's back.
He hooked his arms around Gebu's waist like a malnourished green koala.
The vulture's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets... He didn't understand what was happening, but he reacted eventually. The paladin raised his longsword, the weapon gleaming with golden light, and stepped forward to strike the giant eagle!
The giant eagle had no intention of fighting the humans. With a flap of its broad wings, it stirred up a strong wind that hit the witch hunter in the face, causing him to stop in his tracks and unable to advance.
Taking advantage of the two-second pause in the humans' attention, the giant eagle, carrying two goblins, took off into the air with a sharp cry, soaring through the sky and instantly becoming a black dot in the sky.
"Goblin!"
The vulture roared in a heart-wrenching rage!
But it was too late.
The sky ablaze with fire was like the wrath of a god—not directed at the goblin, but at his loyal servant.
In the Holy Kingdom of Kane, the Holy Church of Obak, the chief witch hunter "Vulture" Gascoigne, has once again disappointed his god.
