塔庫魯在森林中被幾位金獅國的士兵追擊著
塔庫魯匍匐在濃密灌木叢後，透過隙縫觀察那小隊金獅國騎士。天色逐漸暗了，主力部隊卻始終未現身。108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvXyNBYKYWh
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWj48xEvbM0
看來，即使是棘刺馬的原產國，金獅國的主力部隊中依然鮮少使用騎兵。這些裝備棘刺馬的斥候，只能充當前鋒尖兵，無法單獨編組騎兵軍團。108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1owsbAbpwQ
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxXgeQ1Ocux
原本的塔庫魯，對與自己無關的事向來興趣缺缺。對棘刺馬，他只知是金獅國的名物，至於馬種特性與戰術運用，他未曾深究。108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP7lLd8Kupd
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLM0u7jIEVj
因距離敵人太近，他夜晚不敢生火，只能靠厚重的鐵甲與裡層皮襖，硬生生熬過了刺骨寒夜。108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbKhbg89mRq
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt9rDTeIGA4
一夜未眠，清晨時，身體僵硬得近乎失去控制。森林中光線微弱、濕氣瀰漫，以前在特遣隊學過的體溫自救法也派不上用場——尤其是他連卸甲都無法做到。108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrSfsNcvKhf
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm9qT424VAm
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzzJX1irUuv
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJz4dvty3ME
晨光初現，大地微微泛白，遠方終於傳來大軍行軍的轟隆腳步聲。108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVem1A8A9OR
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFGdC6VfQ4k
主力部隊到了。108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7v0tHRVpnV
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOiXBboLKGs
看這節奏，應是連夜急行軍，趕在破曉前抵達目的地。108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD2yQa7RT0w
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKxBWyQ3wuO
塔庫魯微微活動關節，為可能隨時爆發的行動與戰鬥作準備。然而剛伸直左腿，新生的巨大身軀便在膝關節處發出清晰刺耳的「喀搭」聲響！108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE6vVFoVMA9
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbHzNrH5ZH9
不好！他瞬間戒備起來。108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQjZ9lUQGfE
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe8hlq6KRcG
不遠處的騎士小隊已有警覺，迅速整備，並派出兩名持刀士兵朝他藏身的方向逼近。108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6l9iSMAM7I
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3PtuWMQN4Z
形勢緊急，若再遲疑，便將陷入包圍。塔庫魯當機立斷，立刻轉身脫離接觸——108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdSjDXriATh
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd0kAznG83n
才跑出數步，背後便傳來破空聲，數支弓箭接連射來！所幸厚重鐵甲將箭矢全數彈飛，僅留些許悶響。108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiYTVlXBygF
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYWDREfxiNJ
鐵甲防禦力驚人，這讓塔庫魯稍稍放心，但麻煩仍未結束。108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdStzlCV7u4
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnYmSu91638
逃竄間，一場災難隨即降臨。108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZDXIV7LukO

108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbqwzcbpuPB
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnV96RxHbmi
原本在地球上的身高僅約一七三公分，如今這具山蠻族身體高達兩百一十公分，差異巨大。他對樹林高度的直覺嚴重失調，頻頻撞上低垂樹枝。細小枝葉尚能靠盔甲直接撞斷，但就在前方，一根粗壯且歪斜的老樹斜斜的橫長於路徑中央。108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGxRshznKdV
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo4f2n77NV8
轟然一聲！塔庫魯閃避不及，頭盔猛撞樹幹，被震得踉蹌倒地。108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCqu0UMOiJz
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1S287l0Fw6
這一下，兩名追兵瞬間追近！108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb7qf3FJYhv
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZnkRzXPJTS
後方又有更多士兵跟上，形勢危急。108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBIpBj54p61
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUgCaDpqKHw
塔庫魯強忍痛楚翻身起來，根本無暇顧及敵人的刀光，施展「暴衝脫離」戰術，強行突破敵人壓制線，大步衝刺。108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsyNGM3ZNxX
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyj0JZLMh1T
兩名金獅士兵的單刀砍在他的鐵甲上，只擦出金屬火花，無法造成實質傷害。108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu0bgBCTdre
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWG0j5pI6j
塔庫魯俐落地繞過橫樹，迅速加速。108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6AnFdtzuLc
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPG3Gmc7Doz
雖一度拉開距離，但身形嬌小的兩名士兵輕鬆從樹下穿過，追擊再次逼近！108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmT03pbSWia
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8OgvrjCzxK
塔庫魯不得不轉身反擊。他採用「防禦性打擊」手法，手中長柄石斧猛然橫掃而出！108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQIU2RCguLE
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMTkEmO30pm
這一擊力道沉猛，兩名士兵驚覺擋不下，全力後跳閃避。塔庫魯見機不可失，收斧轉身，又朝林深處疾奔。108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFxY0AqZVog
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl67DHvvxBu
背後飛來的兩箭仍舊無法穿透鐵甲，只在鐵甲上噹噹作響。108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgHSXcKL0wQ
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK14lZnvdCC
距離稍稍拉開，約三十公尺。108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqaAicAVTSM
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPSYPBdc6PX
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLVLTax7bvj
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd9Zp4HNqL0
追兵小隊眼見環境逐漸開闊，林木高大稀疏，判斷適合中程武器作戰，遂抽出背後的標槍，展開「遠程投擲壓制」。108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOGbugPYvpM
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZCNOhdie2B
塔庫魯雖身體笨重，意識卻仍敏銳。他依靠過去特遣隊「隨機折線移動」訓練，亂七八糟地在林間左右蛇行，令標槍一一落空！108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgUjM7RVgKM
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRDSPk9HRR9
目睹敵方投擲失誤，他一邊奔跑，一邊抽出背上攜帶的自製木標槍，回身迅速反擊！108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGlg1SVafPm
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkt6lv9wopp
然而因身體未穩，這一擊偏離了目標，標槍從兩名追兵之間呼嘯而過，掠起落葉。108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGajB9ltx99
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVamecdJyMj
儘管未能擊中，這突如其來的反擊讓追兵們短暫遲疑，給了塔庫魯寶貴的喘息空間。108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgDLybDgWHJ
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡizf6PUhlFU
敵方的後面四名援軍亦已趕到，追擊隊伍擴增至六人。108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR0odlera2Y
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpT16SU3SCC
領隊的小隊長邊追邊呼喝：「這傢伙動作靈活，不像一般山蠻族那樣遲鈍！小心，他不簡單！」108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSf3Tg3LOJl
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlfwsbSGjjp
另一名士兵邊跑邊提醒：「隊長，前方好像是禁地方向！」108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Lu4j8t91Z
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQhjIpaLxO
小隊長目光一凝，沉聲道：「只要沒看到警告木匾，就還在安全範圍內，繼續追！」108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRror5wNfpO
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGYJpXDSsth
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxrTQ1U7Spv
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAcFmxGMAzk
又是一輪你追我逃，足足持續了二十多分鐘。108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGFZ0JoK7PW
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtHWrh0vqlS
終於，森林深處，一個用藤蔓與木釘搭建的橫匾出現在前方大樹間。上面刻著陌生的符號——禁地到了！108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6p9kG1AEA7
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuVF7SGFvk0
金獅國士兵們氣喘吁吁，停下腳步，不敢再追。108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx5UoDfXLsi
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLw8PS2xiD5
禁地，是一片神聖之地，居住著特殊族群，八大人類國度皆派有特使常駐，嚴禁擅入。尤其像山蠻族這類外型粗獷、智能遲緩的族群，根本無緣踏入。108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJdDHM3fjH
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡngGu5ltWGD
塔庫魯原本對這些一無所知。即便看到警示匾額，他也無暇顧及，只管逃命。108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFb4wptzKtH
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaPNq0vPpgi
如今確定甩開追兵，他才靠著一棵怪異樹幹喘息。108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUQgMxbv87C
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv2EhGVrdRW
長柄石斧立在一旁，獸皮水袋在手，他大口喝著冰涼溪水，狼狽而又慶幸。108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh3Qwcg5yDa
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMfSYe852sV
才剛將水袋封緊，一道寒光猝然逼近！108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46hI11DLtW
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR9iNekEezK
一把銳利長矛從旁伸出，矛尖抵住他的咽喉——那是鐵甲防護最脆弱的死角！108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2X4TlLP0I
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8AF82N9UJv
塔庫魯僵住，眼角餘光掃向來者。108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuSmrUqWsab
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8oJkO52kJR
只見一名白髮男子站在他面前，長髮潔白柔順，如同雲絮，神態冷峻優雅。身穿翠綠皮甲，背負木弓與箭囊，宛如森林中的精靈戰士。108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4xwklbWAKx
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4GREDCxmiG
而在男子身後，還有四名同樣白髮的同伴，全都搭弓對準他。108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0VQIF5Ao6v
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzktOuJuRLE
塔庫魯乖乖高舉雙手，連水袋也未敢鬆手。108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIVkDkpOdv1
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡACUD4Pio6B
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdRZe9E83BA
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx4HOCnP8yX
白髮男子未開口，卻清晰地在塔庫魯腦海中響起聲音：「山蠻族人，這裡是禁地。你竟不知不可擅入？」108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2YSU8wy6nj
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx5y0dMXZ9R
塔庫魯驚訝地環顧四周，低聲問道：「是……你在說話？」108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY0sWTid9zO
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcInZ2wp1ty
明明未見對方嘴唇動作，卻聽得真切。這……是精神傳音？！108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUQzRdgtQ0i
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4jh9OrjpCC
白髮男子並未回應，只將長矛向前一送，矛尖輕觸他的皮膚，冰冷刺骨。108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDrLMLM0ZNk
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLS18ArTcD8
塔庫魯立刻表態：「我不知道這裡是禁地！真的是沒人告訴我過這件事！」108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNvujmHSZDz
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGycQYZllK1
白髮男子淡然傳訊：「無知，不是免罪的理由，擅闖就該當要受罰。」108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEuV0luRSD3
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7CXJnStlFh
說罷，只見他眼神一凝，塔庫魯身旁的長柄石斧竟無風自動，緩緩飄浮起來，盤旋纏繞過塔庫魯粗壯的脖頸與雙臂，最後「咔噠」一聲重新變回堅硬如鐵，將塔庫魯牢牢束縛！108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMRnhegoqnv
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZj2vGqRXWE
塔庫魯眼角狂跳，這種無聲無息、隨心控物的能力，簡直匪夷所思。108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0PlkpeHulq
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMupSjP8uyv
白髮男子長矛一挑，示意他站起。108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJqidEy1CeA
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZDDEoDoYrx
接著輕揮左手，無形力量推動著塔庫魯離開藏身樹幹。108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjUus8GWooT
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡepCZEWBcsM
其中一名白髮弓手收起武器，轉身率先前行。領頭男子再度精神傳訊：「跟上！」108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX4S31gluws
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhW0jecK8fE
雖然不甘心，塔庫魯只能跟著離開。108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRmwGAGpXIV
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqLo6Q9OQ3P
好不容易甩開金獅國追兵，卻又落入另一群未知而強大的存在之手——他心知，自己即將面對一場新的未知試煉。
