The eyes of that had appeared at the entrance of the cave clearly belonged to beasts. The Divine Baby hurriedly raised the bone staff without any hesitation.
He had already understood that the bone staff could protect them from wild beasts.
However, Henry was not sure if the feather on the bone staff could scare off the beasts of the Death Realm.
The natural laws of the Death Realm seemed to be much more powerful than that of the Restricted Zones. The wild beasts there were definitely more formidable than the wild beasts in the icy world of the Gate of Rest.
"Whoosh!"
It was visible that the eyes of the beasts at the entrance of the cave were flustered and shrank back a little, but they did not flee in fright. Instead, they continued to linger around the entrance of the cave.
Sure enough, they were much stronger than the beasts of that icy world! Had it been those beasts of that icy world, they would have fled long ago. Henry took out his the bow and loaded it with an arrow, then he pulled the bow to its fullest, and shot it towards the eyes of those beasts! "Awoooo!" A miserable cry sounded, and then a pair of sparkling green eyes vanished! The other pairs of eyes quickly retreated for a good distance, no longer daring to get any closer.
"Let's get some sleep! Scaring off those beasts with this feather won't be a problem!"
Henry erected the bone staff in the cave and fell asleep with the Divine Baby in his arms.
When he woke up, the sky was already bright, and the rain had also stopped.
Henry limped over to the entrance of the cave with his crutch, only to see a double-headed wolf as big as a horse lying dead at the entrance of the
cave.
Both its heads had a terrifying amount of fangs, which gave it an extra ferocious look! Henry went on to skin the double-headed wolf, and the Divine Baby instinctively went to gather some firewood.
The father and son then roasted the meat of the wolf and had it for breakfast.
The meat of the wolf was tough and lean, it was nothing close to delicious at all.
However, seeing that Henry had fractured his leg, it was already good enough for him to be able to have free meat delivered to his doorstep.
After eating the roasted wolf meat, Henry took the Divine Baby for a walk around the area. He washed his face by a river and filled his leather pouch with fresh water.
Henry found some medicinal herbs in the woods. He returned to the cave and put the herbs over his wound, then fashioned a pair of splints with wood, and bound the fractured bones with the splints.
For the next few days, Henry rested in the cave and tried to avoid as much activity as possible.
The Divine Baby would carry the bone staff on its back and go out to fetch water, pick firewood, and gather some fruits.
In the Death Realm, although the beasts looked bizarre, the plants looked just about the same as the plants outside it.
However, the flowers, plants, and trees there were all much taller than those of the ancient land.
For example, the banana tree in the ancient land, was just five or six meters tall at most, but in the Death Realm, it could grow up to nearly ten meters.
After resting for a few days, Henry finally saw that his wound had become less swollen, and was slowly healing.
The meat of the two-headed wolf had already been finished by the father and son.
"Come on! Let's get out of this forest and see what else is left!"
Henry had been resting in the cave for a several days, and he felt very bored and depressed.
There did not seem to have anything but beasts in the Death Realm. They would not be harmed as long as they had that feather on the bone staff. Therefore, Henry took the Divine Baby and followed the river in the forest and headed downstream.
The Divine Baby held the bone knife in its hand and led the way.
Although the forest was difficult to walk in, the flowers, grass, and trees were all very tall. Birds chirped cheerfully, and the flowers bloomed, the scenery was magical.
The beasts were also very big, but when they saw the feather on the bone staff on Henry's back, they all growled and bared their teeth, but none dared to approach Henry.
They had not reached the end of the forest even after walking for a day, Henry and his son picked some wild fruits and ate them, then went to sleep under a big tree.
The next day, the father and son continued their exploration along the river.
There were many prey and fruits in that forest. As long as they had water, they had no need to worry.
They walked up to noon, and saw that the river they walked along was flowing into a bigger river.Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
The water of the big river turned out to be red.
Henry frowned and scooped up some water, then smelled it.
It actually smelled of blood! The water of the river had been dyed red by blood! How much blood was needed to dye the entire river red? Henry was shocked.
Henry and the Divine Baby travelled upstream along the riverbank.
Only to discover that the redness of the river was getting increasingly thicker! After passing by a branch of the river, Henry was shocked! He saw that the slope of the riverbank was full of human corpses! Their blood flowed slowly into the river, dying it red! It seemed that a fierce battle had taken place on the river bank! Henry looked around cautiously.
He was just an ordinary being at that moment. If he bumped into a crowd of enemies armed with bows and arrows, it would be very troublesome for him.
Plus, he had fractured his leg, he could not run even if he wanted to.
That feather only had a deterrent
ret
effect on the beasts, it was most probably useless against people! Henry stared at the riverbank for long while and saw that it was dead quiet Other than the corpses on the ground, there were only a few large, vulture-like birds pecking at the flesh of the corpses.
"Pak pak pak!"
Suddenly, one of the birds seemed to have been caught by something and was struggling desperately to get free! Henry hurriedly limped over to have
a closer look.
From a distance, he saw the large

bird being grabbed by someone lying in the pile of corpses! The person twisted it violently with a powerful twist of both hands, and the neck of the large bird was instantly twisted into two! Blood spurted everywhere! The person tossed away the head of the bird and raised it up before gulping down the blood of the bird! After drinking the blood of the large bird, the person then ripped off the feathers of the large bird and tore off large mouthfuls of the bird's meat! It would seem that this person had survived the great battle and had laid in the pile of corpses pretending to be dead due to being unable to move at all. The person had intended to catch the large bird when it got close and devour it! That person was extremely ferocious! Henry carried the Divine Baby and carefully approached the person with the bone knife in his hand.
When they got closer to the person, Henry shocked once more.
It became apparent to him that the person was actually a woman! She was very tall and strong, and was estimated to be at least 6 feet tall! However,
her figure was very well- proportioned! She had voluptuous and firm busts! It was obvious that she was a young woman.
Her face was muddled with dust and the blood of the bird, her face could not be clearly seen.
However, the skin on her neck had a healthy shade of light yellow.
His clothes were also decorated with beautiful multicoloured feathers.
"You creature of the Brute Clan... you shameless bastard!"
When the woman saw Henry and his son approaching, she glared at them and shouted with great effort, "You... Just finish me off then!"
"Er..." Henry was stunned. "You misunderstand. I am not your enemy." "Oh?
You... are also a member of the Hong Clan!"
The woman raised her head and saw the white feather on Henry's bone staff on his back! "Oh... yes."
Henry taken aback again, then quickly admitted that he was a member of the Hong Clan.
Judging from the woman's words, she also seemed to be from the Hong Clan.
With that white feather from the Hong Clan in his possession, he was able to reduce her hostility a little.
Besides, Sylvia was the saint of the Hong Clan, so that made Henry half of a member of the Hong Clan! "Oh..." When the woman heard that Henry
was also a member of the Hong Clan, she immediately heaved a sigh of relief and lay weakly on the ground, "You'd better heal me first!"
"Uh..." Henry's brows furrowed as he looked at the woman.
He noticed that the woman had been shot by arrows in the chest and legs!
