撕下長吻野狗的後腿，正堆在火堆前烤著，這是主角接下來在荒野中要走回天龍國的食物了
當他把雙腳上的戰靴也脫了下來，卻被自己的腳給看傻了眼。440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZeDNNnUqXl
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpx7cQo0OOW
小腿上覆著粗長的腿毛，這還算是正常且合情理的狀況；真正離經叛道的是，從腳踝以下，皮膚竟轉為一片粉紅色、柔韌如海綿般的組織，與手掌如出一轍。更怪異的是腳趾的造型——拇趾異常寬大、像是被特化過，其餘四趾則縮小許多，整體遠看竟有如一雙巨大的羊蹄。440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhbI5bqeaW1

這時他才猛然想起，山蠻族之所以得名，正因祖先長居陡峭高山，世代演化出適合攀爬的異常肢體與強韌體魄。他們能背負重物徒手上下山壁，卻因頭腦簡樸、個性直率，被平地人帶著輕蔑地稱作「山蠻」。440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Z4eRcwcYo

從小不習慣穿鞋的他，在入伍後才勉強適應戰靴，只因戰場上需防禦敵人的陷阱與鐵器，塔庫魯才穿上軍方所準備的特製戰靴。為此，軍方還為這種戰靴來特製了符合山蠻族腳型的戰靴底紋，兼顧了攀爬與防護。但塔庫魯此刻心中有數——若僅憑裸足，這副經過漫長歲月雕琢而成的腳，才是真正無可匹敵的登山利器。440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4kDus8Lan7

重新穿戴好戰靴與頭盔，已是十多分鐘後。440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyjWZiEHJ4u
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpDWyPZBw8j
塔庫魯從鐵甲內側取出獸皮水袋，把剩餘的陳水倒空，裝滿冰涼清澈的溪水，再回到剛才擊殺長吻野狗的地方，徒手扯下一條後腿，便在原地升火，燒烤起肉來。440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWlkXbtArrw

他明白，要走回天龍國的城池尚有一段漫長且危險的路途，補充糧食是當務之急。440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9PrtD0Dyqs

萬縱谷外觀看似狹長，其實從東到西的山壁間相距也有四、五百公尺，環抱出一條宛如裂痕般延伸至遠方的幽谷。440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpMH3GsYH23
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ36LprWv55p
沿途，他兩度遭遇長吻野狗群，但憑藉新身體那異於常人的感官與地球特遣隊員訓練出的潛伏技巧，他總能提早感知動靜，靈巧地藏匿於亂石與草叢之間，避開了靈敏的長吻野狗。440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpclfhPtPG0
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcVDkTiJsft
若是原本的塔庫魯的話，早在野狗鼻息範圍內暴露無遺，難逃一場惡戰。但如今的他，每一寸呼吸、每一分心跳，都能夠以獵人之姿潛行於暗影之中。440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf1CPFUb7sS
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9MJCANk9t0
雖說新身體壯碩結實，肚腹略顯臃腫，且肌肉分布有些失衡，但這點瑕疵，他相信，在經過真正的特遣隊式訓練後，很快便能彌補。440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL1Aqfv5cMC

當他潛行至左側山壁下方，抬頭望向幾近垂直的峭壁時，心中燃起一絲躍躍欲試的興奮。440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZoxn7fFDZN

他將長柄石斧牢牢繫於背後束帶，雙手探向岩壁。440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZcLeZ9bf9
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaEIs6DXGNH
觸感柔韌的海綿狀掌心緊緊貼合在細微的凹凸處，只需一丁點支撐，他便能牢牢吸附其上。手指尖的海綿體組織，和腳下特化出的粗壯趾甲緊扣石縫，每一次發力，都像大地將他向上牽引。440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtlLJf6msjv
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTglfMtJ4xO
沉重的鐵甲與石斧在身，換作普通人早已力竭，但塔庫魯攀爬起來卻宛若在地面行走般輕鬆。每一動，每一靜，他都本能地將重心分散、貼服岩壁，身影宛如夜色中躍動的猛獸。440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ18j2GGll9D

在攀爬途中，他不由自主地回想起過去的種種。440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIrwJe8idvt

——這副強壯的身軀，本該是山蠻族祖輩在險峻山林中求生的驕傲，可如今，卻成了被利用、被滅絕的工具。440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD21aRtdzZ6
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgW7LBCrTTD
四年半前，山蠻族還有八百餘人，如今只剩不到兩百，且半數以上是孩童。壯丁幾乎被戰場與礦坑吞噬殆盡。礦坑深處，空氣稀薄、毒氣氤氳，落石與坍塌猝不及防，像一張張張開血盆大口的惡獸，無聲地吞噬著山蠻人的生命。440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiGvtq1B1Nn
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ00t4l1dfR5
即便山蠻女子免於從軍，卻同樣被販賣至險惡之地勞作，最終早逝於黑暗深淵。即使偶有與克塔利族通婚，也無法挽救族群的日益凋零。440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvzbZe88o5T
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmQAPt5Fh57

短短十分鐘，塔庫魯已如猿猴般靈巧地攀至五十米高的平台。440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ9T8njXw79
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT85Exc3KB0
平台窄小，僅約五十公尺，遍布雜草與矮樹，也夾雜著數棵挺拔入雲的巨木。崎嶇的地形上還零星散落著小湖泊，宛如被遺忘的天光碎片。440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT3n7TdAAXS
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHT5gXW78hZ
遠處更高的山壁斜斜拔起，坡度雖緩，但無繩索、掛鉤等工具，對一般人來說這仍然是一處絕境。440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuRpxbhZyAv
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCEU5bzpo75
塔庫魯反手取下長柄石斧，沿著崎嶇的平台，朝南方繼續前行。440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsXghOaFODk

夜幕低垂，他就在這片雜草叢生的平台上扎營。440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZd26vLDYLa
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUomc0hoyl5
氣溫驟降，但他身體強健，厚重內襯的鐵甲也有效隔絕了寒意。他半躺在地，一邊啃咬用布條包裹的烤肉，一邊梳理著塔庫魯這個身份殘留的記憶碎片。440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB7FTowcmqE
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdqUAzCPM0w
父母早逝後，他最親近的是僅年長三歲的表叔。表叔同樣英年早逝——在這個族群裡，三十歲便是高壽。男性多數戰死，女性多數被勞役至死，能活過三十歲者，寥寥無幾。440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN9jxFsA2gN
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡicS80DUYgm
山蠻族人若無意外死於戰場，便多半消耗在那些幽暗的礦坑深處。即便他父親，作為族中聖地的守護者，也僅僅撐到了四十多歲，便因爲卸任後，同樣難逃被平地人詐騙到礦坑內賣命，終至死於地底的礦坑深處。440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzoOXimIsyz
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1LdEdOz893
想到這裡，他不禁握緊了拳。440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4u8H60sH7e
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcNeekwECNj
塔庫魯過去曾喜歡過一位山蠻族少女，但這又如何？在他從軍的五年裡，少女們不是嫁作他人妻，就是被騙入礦坑，從此杳無音訊。440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNhu4S6xir7
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdFOmX3w6Rd

塔庫魯收回思緒，摸了摸左手臂上的鐵製護腕。440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFKoXS1lREj
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzl5ccdgnZm
突然想起：那個在穿越前綁在手臂上的鐵盒子呢？居然已經無影無蹤了。莫非在萬花筒般的通道中耗損了？當時在他靈魂離體時，遺憾的是他未留意到那個盒子當時是否仍在手臂上。440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡytWjmvI5GV

他舔了舔乾燥的嘴唇，心中浮現一絲荒誕的希望——若能出現一把彈藥無限的五零機槍，那該有多好！以他這具身軀的力量，就算扛著笨重的機槍來掃射，也能比地球上的藍波還要威風！440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYpqfnpSTcP

440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1JmrKxT4n2
如果當初穿越的時間差一分鐘，就是一年之差。那麼周美華、沈舒妮兩名女隊員應該早他一兩年來到這裡，應該還活著。440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9K6rc1qul9
440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡotzy7C2Ifb
——自己應該先去找到她們，然後再去找到隊長他們，六名特遣隊員齊聚一堂，便能展開反擊，去清算那些穿越到這裡、禍亂世界的安其那教徒！440Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyysZBS3Mt7
