Chapter 274. Saving Brolin?
"B-Brolin... I—" Rabbit Kyla stammered, her voice trembling with shock.
Brolin raised his massive axe and swung it with terrifying strength at her. Rabbit Kyla froze, her instincts failing her as the blade neared.
Before the blow could land, a dragon-scaled hand intercepted the attack, stopping it cold. Tyler stood between her and the weapon, his expression resolute.
"Look closely," Tyler said, his voice calm yet firm. "His eyes are green, and he’s lost focus. See the plants sprouting from his ears? He’s under some sort of mind control."
Rabbit Kyla blinked, finally noticing the details. Her initial shock gave way to a mix of relief and embarrassment.
"So he doesn’t remember anything? That means..." Her voice trailed off, and a small smile appeared on her face.
Cough
Rabbit Kyla quickly coughed, trying to mask her amusement when Tyler and Human Kyla shot her disapproving looks.
"Let’s save him," Rabbit Kyla said hastily, hopping forward with renewed determination.
"Sure," Tyler muttered, turning back to face Brolin.
The tense atmosphere in the underground forest was palpable as Tyler, Rabbit Kyla, and Human Kyla faced off against Brolin. The man they knew was no longer himself. His eyes glowed an eerie green, unfocused and lifeless, while tiny plants sprouted unnaturally from his ears.
