In the vast universe, the space station floats silently in outer space.
The satellite orbits quietly along the orbit, and the lens provides the space station with front-line satellite images.
Disaster Response Committee, Space Station, Rocket Launch Center, Satellite Weapon Strategy Room... Countless pairs of eyes were glued to the screen, holding their breath, as if they could hear their own heartbeats.
A black spot appeared at the end of the endless sky.
The black spot is getting bigger and bigger, taking on the shape of a sphere with countless uneven craters on its surface. It burns silently in space, surrounded by white fire, and is approaching little by little.
Doomsday body, destroying star.
It once destroyed the medieval era and brought down the Twilight of the Gods, causing the awakening gods to keep secret.
Even the five Creation Dragons found it difficult.
At this moment, this super huge white planet strikes again.
The scientific researchers at the rocket launch center looked grim, the astronauts in the space station held their helmets and lowered their heads in silence, and the call line in the strategy room kept ringing.
In the command room where there was only one person, Jiang Shang stood in front of the monitoring screen, his brows furrowed tightly, and he felt discouraged.
Can it be done?
With the power of modern humans, can we really survive this catastrophe?
If all three plans to deal with the Destruction Star fail, then humans may end up with the same fate as the gods.
No.
Now is not the time to think about this.
Jiang Shang shook his head, his eyes flickered, he approached the microphone and said calmly:
"[The Destruction Star] has entered the predicted orbit and is ready to launch plan one."
The order had been conveyed and the war room was empty. Jiang Shang was under great pressure and took a deep breath.
In this dead silence, he felt that he needed to say something.
Jiang Shang slowly held the microphone, as if he had used a lot of strength, but he could only make a low voice:
"If the fire is not extinguished, mankind will survive forever."
Federation, Star Map City.
Drones are still patrolling intersections with constant traffic, and there is an endless stream of pedestrians in the aisles in front of shopping malls.
Another day of mechanical repetition.
However, the sky gradually darkened, as if a big hand had turned down the brightness. People looked up in surprise and fear, and found that the day was quickly turning into night.
Darkness encroached on everything, and shadows spread from buildings, traffic lights, asphalt roads, all the way to pedestrians.
In less than five minutes, the world was shrouded in darkness, with harsh whistles and commotion echoing in the extremely low visibility darkness.
"Total solar eclipse?"
"Can't see anything."
"It's getting dark, go home quickly!"
People are accustomed to light, and when eternal night falls again, the fear of darkness in human blood once again invades the spinal cord.
The chaotic footsteps revealed panic, and then turned into a big commotion, interspersed with shouts, screams, and cries.
There was a bang, and gunshots rang out in the darkness. The panic became more serious, and the sirens sounded but to no avail.
In the midst of this violent torrent, a homeless man knelt down on the ground, worshiped the sky devoutly, and said in a trembling voice:
"The end of time...will bring justice."
Affected by the Destruction Star, some cities on the Blue Star experienced a 'total solar eclipse' phenomenon, and darkness was spreading to the world.
This is equivalent to a doomsday catastrophe.
In the face of this catastrophe, some people prayed, some reveled, and some tried hard, but to no avail.
A petite woman with red hair, wearing a large black trench coat, leading a heavily armed investigation team, stood on the front line of the commotion, looking up into the darkness.
"Let me see..." Mamen said softly: "Lin Xiao, your determination."
Lin Xiao stood on the endless wilderness.
The scorching wind stirred up sand and gravel, making a crackling sound in the darkness.
This is the rocket launch center, far away from human habitation, only endless rocks and desert.
Qiao Linna put her hand into Lin Xiao's pocket, Lin Xiao's palm was intertwined with hers, and she looked into the sky.
"If the plan works, there is no need for you to take action." Jolina said.
"I hope so." Lin Xiao stared at the sky.
outer space.
The unmanned spacecraft equipped with a gravity device is heading to the Destruction Planet.
On this huge planet, the spacecraft looks extremely small, just like a grain of sand facing a huge boulder.
The spacecraft dragged its tail flame and passed through the path of the Destruction Star. Countless people held their breaths and stared at the surveillance screen.
boom!!
Fire exploded in space, and the wreckage of the spacecraft was scattered everywhere in the universe.
It didn't even interfere with the path forward of the Destruction Star.
When approaching the Destruction Star, the spacecraft was crushed by the powerful magnetic field!
At the same moment, the eyes of the scientific researchers in the rocket launch center were shaken.
"It didn't interfere at all..."
"It's simply impossible to do it with human strength alone."
"There are other plans!"
In the command room, Jiang Shang did not hesitate and continued:
"Execute plan two!"
The space station is located on the path forward of the Destruction Star. At this moment, a long and narrow satellite weapon launch tube is stretched out, as if intercepting the enemy's spearman.
The space-based weapon 'Gaia', named after Mother Earth, is the crystallization of mankind's highest science and card making, and has an eighth-level level.
After experiencing battles with the evil gods, the major alliances also contributed valuable experience to provide 'Gaia' with theoretical foundations and strengthening materials, so that it can launch satellite strikes with ninth-level power.
Even the gods must avoid its sharp edge when faced with the space-based weapon Gaia, and there is no possibility of dodging on the God of Destruction.
In other words, this satellite strike is a sure hit, depending on how much damage it can cause to the Destruction Star!
The launcher of the space-based weapon 'Gaia' adopts a three-section structure, which can compress the source force and launch a light cannon with extreme power in the final blow.
The launcher is condensed with overwhelming source power, and the bright blue light is constantly changing. The launch tube is trembling as if it is about to melt, and it is as if the roar of the 'Gaia' light cannon can be heard!
"emission!"
boom!!
Brilliant light cannons penetrated the sky, cut through outer space, and bombarded the huge planet head-on.
Boom!!
A huge roar sounded, and the entire Blue Star seemed to shake. The eyes of the experts in the rocket launch center trembled.
"Did it hit?"
"This is the strongest blow!"
"Okay, hit!"
However, the atmosphere of celebration did not last long, and the cheers of the crowd froze, as if they were being choked.
Dust fills the air and waves of smoke rise.
Jiang Shang stood in front of the monitoring screen, his eyes constantly changing, his fists clenched, but slowly released.
In the picture, the Destruction Star was not affected at all and crashed directly into the space station!
Boom!!
The entire space station was crushed into a wreckage, and together with the crystallization of mankind's highest card-making knowledge, it was reduced to dust in the universe.
At the Space Launch Center, there was a white-haired old man in a white coat with slightly red eyes.
The mood of despair spread among this group of human wise men.
On the space station in No Man's Sky, astronauts witnessed the scene of space-based weapons being crushed into powder. They clasped their hands together and actually started to pray.
Above the wasteland, a bright light flashed across the sky, and then quickly disappeared, like a falling meteor.
Lin Xiao's eyes flickered slightly.
"Aren't you waiting?" Jolina asked.
"There is no need to wait any longer." Lin Xiao said, "If anyone can save the world, it must be me."
"Why?"
"Because, only I have this power."
The card condensed between two fingers, dark flames lingered on the card, and a black dragon appeared on the card.
Lin Xiao's eyes were stern: "Now is not the time to run away from the battlefield!"
In the command room, Jiang Shang felt a sense of powerlessness for the first time.
This is the hesitation and helplessness that human beings can feel when facing the end of the world...even the sanctuary is inevitable.
Didi.
The headset beeps,
Jiang Shang turned on the headset and heard a familiar voice coming from the other end, and said in shock: "Lin Xiao?"
"I will implement the third plan." Lin Xiao said: "I will crush the God of Destruction."
Jiang Shang was stunned for a moment, his eyes kept flickering, and he nodded deeply and said, "I understand."
"I wish you good luck, Lin Xiao..."
Jiang Shang pressed the headset, stood in front of the huge monitoring screen, and said seriously:
"I and all mankind will pray for you."
"Relax, I'm so serious now as if I can't come back." Lin Xiao said with a smile.
Jiang Shang smiled bitterly and said: "Can you relax at this time..."
"Others don't know."
Lin Xiao slowly raised the card to the sky and said calmly:
"But I can."
The strong air flow blew the hem of Lin Xiao's clothes, and the creation-level cards released terrifying power. Ancient syllables continued to spit out from Lin Xiao's mouth, calling for the true name and power of the Dragon of Destruction.
"The end of the world, the knell of death, the shadow that blocks the sun. Irreversible, irresistible, witness to destruction and reincarnation - come! Nidhogg!"
Jiang Shang stood in front of the monitoring screen, his eyes widened.
He knew that Lin Xiao had a contract with the Creation Dragon.
However, this was the first time I witnessed Lin Xiao summoning the Creation Dragon!
The earth rumbled and trembled, pitch-black fire rose on the wasteland, the Gobi desert cracked open with a crack, and magma and the breath of terror emerged from the abyss.
Jiang Shang peered into the dark shadow in the abyss, his eyes shocked.
The giant dragon with obsidian scales, the dragon pupils in the yellow amber eyes stood upright, suddenly opened its dark wings, flapped and flew out of the abyss, occupying the sky behind Lin Xiao.
Boom!!
The sky was trembling for Nidhogg. His huge head opened its mouth and spewed blue flames into the sky, illuminating the darkness like eternal night!
At the rocket launch center, satellite images showed unusual scenes in the Gobi Desert, and the staff looked surprised.
"That figure is the Lord of Destruction and Reincarnation, Nidhogg?"
"It was the Creation Dragon who took action - great, we are saved!"
"No, there are humans controlling Nidhogg!"
The old man in the white coat shrank his pupils, recognized the picture, and said in disbelief: "That is..."
Under the gaze of countless pairs of eyes, the dark wings spread out and rushed into the night sky.
And on top of Nidhogg's scaly head, stood a tall and tall figure.
Lin Xiao was carrying a big sword on his back, his black trench coat was swaying with the strong wind, and his face was determined.
As he passed through the atmosphere, his body ignited with blazing fire, and he appeared to be a suit of dark and thick armor!
There was a commotion inside the rocket launch center.
"It's Lin Xiao, the world champion!"
"Epee Man, is this the third option?"
"Come on...the last hope!"
Countless lines of sight were cast on Lin Xiao through satellite images.
In Lin Xiao's ears, Nidhogg's cold voice sounded: "I will only take you to death."
Lin Xiao looked up, as if through the roaring flames, seeing the vast and beautiful universe, and said:
"Then let's be more vigorous!"
"Speed up, Nidhogg, move forward at full speed!" Lin Xiao ordered.
Nidhogg roared, and flames and heat spurted out from under his obsidian scales, like a blazing sun. He flapped his flaming wings, and rushed out of the atmosphere together with Lin Xiao, into a vast expanse of darkness.
Behind it is a huge and beautiful blue planet.
"You're here, Lin Xiao."
Lin Xiao heard Zhulong's soft voice again, and looked in the direction of the sound through telepathy, only to see a huge red dragon flapping its wings from the end of the darkness.
Zhulong had promised to seek help from the other creators for Lin Xiao, and now, he came as promised.
Lin Xiao nodded in greeting and asked: "Where are the other Creation Dragons?"
Zhulong stretched out his dragon claws, and in his palm gathered a huge four-color orb, mixed with four different colors of creation aura:
"They have injected their own original power into this orb...Then it will be left to you and Nidhogg."
Nidhogg sneered: "Are those old guys scared?"
Zhulong said calmly: "As the guardians of the world, we must ensure that we have spare power."
"Hmph, it doesn't matter." Nidhogg said coldly: "Lin Xiao, take that orb and come with me to the Destruction Star!"
Lin Xiao took the four-color orb and nodded towards Zhulong. The latter smiled slightly and his figure gradually turned into light particles and disappeared.
"Then, I wish you a triumphant return, Lin Xiao..."
The blazing source of power poured into Nidhogg's body from the four-color orb. Nourished by the four laws of creation, the black flames around Nidhogg became more fierce, and he said in a stern voice:
"Stand firm, Lin Xiao, the main event is next!"
Nidhogg burst out with even greater speed, flapped his dark wings, and moved rapidly forward in the silent space.
Not long after, Lin Xiao finally saw the legendary doomsday entity, the super giant planet ‘Destruction Star’.
The huge planet covered the sky and blocked out the sun, standing in front of Lin Xiao's eyes, as if it had its own consciousness, releasing its power in all directions.
Any existence that comes close to the Destruction Star will be annihilated by that source of power and turned into dust in the universe.
"Are we going to blow up this planet?" Lin Xiao said, "It's a little difficult."
Nidhogg: "Try to use the card of the Immortal Giant. The 'Immortal' will not be destroyed, and the 'Destruction Star' will continue to cause destruction. The two will constantly conflict, thus creating opportunities for us."
"Immortal giant..."
Lin Xiao's fire condensed five cards, unfolded them in sequence in the palm of his hand, and whispered: "Please."
These five rainbow cards, the long-awaited response came,
Lin Xiao poured source power into it, and golden light particles poured out from the card, forming a stream of light that gathered in front of Lin Xiao and gradually formed the shape of a giant.
This giant is a hundred meters tall, and its size is constantly increasing. Finally, it looks like a giant standing tall in the sky, with golden light emerging from its body, confronting the super huge meteorite, and its momentum is not lost at all.
The ancient aura gradually revived, and the giant slowly opened his eyes, and his eyes burst out with bright golden light!
The most powerful creature summoned at the cost of five mythical immortal bones.
At the same time, it is also a testimony of Lin Xiao’s hard work and battle so far.
Tenth level, immortal level, immortal giant!
"Control him with your mind, Lin Xiao!" Nidhogg shouted: "Treat him as your body and control him to fight the Destruction Star!"
Is this a super robot war or a script about turning into light?
Lin Xiao was complaining crazily in his heart, but he quickly stretched out his palm and released his source power towards the giant.
The figure floated up from Nidhogg's back, landed on the golden giant's back, and then passed directly through it, suspended at his heart.
Lin Xiao looked around and saw the golden immortal aura surrounding him, appearing translucent.
And this immortal aura is connected to his own spiritual power, as if this golden giant is his own incarnation!
Bang!!
In outer space, the golden giant clenched his fists fiercely when facing a super giant planet.
"Interesting." Lin Xiao was suspended in the heart of the golden giant, controlling the iron fist with his arms and fingers, looking at the God of Destruction, and said: "Have you ever been uppercut?"
The next moment.
The hundred-foot-long golden arm was thrown out like a cannonball, creating a golden light particle in the universe, and then hit the bottom of the God of Destruction, forcibly smashing it off course!
Boom!!
Nidhogg looked at the rock fragments scattered throughout the universe, slightly surprised, and said to himself:
"It turns out that the God of Destruction will also be injured!"
In the satellite picture, Jiang Shang was stunned and muttered:
"That...what is it?"
Looking at this golden giant that covered the sky and the sun, the scientific researchers in the rocket launch center swallowed their saliva.
"It seems that it was the card summoned by Mr. Lin Xiao?"
"He's operating the golden giant!"
"No, that's Champion Lin Xiao's own power!"
The data on the display jumped wildly, and the researcher shouted:
"It's shifted! The Destruction Star has successfully shifted its expected orbit!"
Everyone's eyes suddenly bloomed with light.
There is hope.
The future of mankind depends on this battle!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The super giant planet actually emitted a dark red beam of source power, which shot at the golden giant's body, causing wounds that could not be healed.
Nidhogg yelled: "He is self-aware, Lin Xiao! Be careful!"
"Damn it, I can't bear it!"
Lin Xiao controlled the giant to jump suddenly, and went around behind the God of Destruction. The golden arm wrapped around the immortal energy, and smashed out as if the sky was shattering!
Boom!!
The fist landed on the surface of the God of Destruction, causing ripples layer by layer. While the fist was being resolved, the ripples continued to spread in all directions, forming a terrifying shock!
The shock tore Nidhogg's body, and he roared in pain:
"Don't be reckless! It will bring all the damage back to me!"
"You resist damage and I deal damage. There's nothing wrong with it." Lin Xiao said.
Nidhogg:???
In the universe, circles of ripples are constantly swaying, just like the layers of planetary rings around Jupiter.
Even the people on Blue Star personally felt the strong vibrations from outer space and looked up at the night sky in shock.
While the world was panicking, satellite images were broadcast live all over the world at the same time, officially announcing the arrival of the 'end of the world'.
At the same time, the camera focuses on the golden giant that is fighting the Destruction Star in outer space, providing a clearer satellite picture.
Public opinion was in an uproar and countries were shocked. People were surprised to find that there was a human figure inside the golden giant's translucent body!
In the satellite live broadcast room, countless comments flooded the screen.
"It's a human! That person is fighting the Destruction Star!"
"That seems to be the world champion, Lin Xiao?!"
"Come on, heavy sword man!"
"I feel like there is no hope..."
"Even if he is a god, he cannot solve the end of the world!"
"What will we do if he falls? Is there anyone stronger than him?"
"Don't give up the fight!"
At Solomon Winery, the silver-haired demon looked up to the sky, his all-knowing eyes reflecting the scene in the universe, his eyes flashing slightly.
"I still underestimated Doomsday." Lucifer whispered: "But I... also underestimated Lin Xiao."
"What do you mean?" Beelzebub asked, crossing his arms.
"Using a card more powerful than Destruction Star will bring a serious burden to him, and the price may even be... his life."
Lucifer said in a low voice: "But, he has no intention of retreating at all."
"Tch, it fits his character of a reckless man." Beelzebub curled his lips.
"Among human beings, there is a saying of 'living towards death'." Lucifer said calmly: "Lin Xiao's life is passing by, but the vitality of the world is constantly rising."
Beelzebub was silent for a moment and said, "I don't understand human beings."
"Yes." Lucifer sighed: "I don't understand humans, and I don't understand Lin Xiao."
Bang!!
Lin Xiao grinned and controlled the giant golden arm to hit the surface of the God of Destruction, but was still bounced away by the shock wave.
Controlling this giant is no longer as easy as it was at the beginning, and even the output frequency is constantly declining. If this continues...
boom!!
Nidhogg spewed out five-color fire and burned the Destruction Star, thereby delaying his protection for a moment, and roared: "Lin Xiao!"
"clear."
Lin Xiao took a deep breath, his eyes were stern, and endless immortal aura emerged from his arms, like a cosmic storm punching out his fists continuously!
Boom!!
In No Man's Sky, a little light appeared, and then shock waves spread around, like the universe expanding and a storm raging!
A large amount of rubble and debris floated up from the Destruction Star.
Those gravels, bathed in dark red source power, suddenly seemed to come to life, like piranhas rushing towards Lin Xiao.
Rubbles shot at the golden giant like a chaotic rain, penetrating one wound after another on the translucent immortal aura.
A piece of gravel penetrated Lin Xiao's chest like a bullet, and he coughed out a large mouthful of blood.
"Lin Xiao!" Nidhogg shouted.
"I can't die." Lin Xiao's eyes were sharp, and he controlled the golden giant to clasp his hands, and said in a low voice: "Thanks to him, I know that I was close to something..."
"What?!" Nidhogg's pupils changed.
"arms!"
Lin Xiaolin said: "Pangu cannot live without an axe, just like I cannot live without a big sword!"
"Come on -" Lin Xiao shouted: "Liberate the form!!"
In the two palms held by the golden giant, dark fire suddenly burst out, and the light particles continued to expand, forming a huge dark red lightsaber.
Nidhogg looked at this scene in disbelief.
Use the ninth-level ace and the tenth-level card at the same time.
Lin Xiao, you don’t want your life!
In the satellite live broadcast room on Blue Star, the whole world was shocked.
"What is that?"
"It's the epee man's trump card!"
"I don't know why, but I feel like I can win!"
"Come on, cut the stars with one sword!"
The God of Destruction stood across the boundless darkness, exuding a strange and oppressive purple aura, glaring at Lin Xiao.
It's not an illusion.
The God of Destruction opened its "eyes".
It was a crack, and in the center of the opened crack, there was a red eye.
Just one look at that eye makes one feel boundless despair.
The darkness became thicker and thicker, the cheers on the Blue Star disappeared, and the live broadcast room became inexplicably silent.
This eye is really too weird and brings strong uneasiness.
Nidhogg's breathing was heavy and his eyes were alert.
It's unstoppable... Even if I have the power of five Creation Dragons, it will be difficult to block the next blow of the God of Destruction.
With Lin Xiao now facing him head-on, there is only one way to die!
Hallucinations and pain tortured Lin Xiao's nerves, all the dust-laden memories flooded into his mind, and the massive flow of information threatened to burst his head.
Lin Xiao is trapped in memory.
This moment is almost eternity.
But Lin Xiao just tightened his grip on the Meteoric Sword in his hand.
The golden giant remained motionless, holding a huge lightsaber, standing in front of the Destruction Star that blocked the sky and the sun.
On the boundless Gobi Desert.
The high pony tail of the girl in red swayed in the wind, her left eye was as bright and beautiful as a ruby, but her golden right eye quickly dimmed, becoming as pale and lifeless as a blind man.
"I will exchange it with the world at the cost of my right eye."
Qiao Linna whispered: "Pray to Lin Xiao to wake up from the hallucination."
The right eye of Horus has the power of 'resurrection'. If you sacrifice it to the sun, it can give people new life.
"Lin Xiao!"
Nidhogg injected spiritual power into the golden giant in an attempt to bring back his consciousness, but he did not establish a deep enough anchor with him at all.
If this continues, he will be completely lost in memory!
In the consciousness space, Lin Xiao saw the ontological consciousness of the God of Destruction.
A luminous white sphere that emits a soft, warm white light.
"Are you really not going back?" Destruction Star asked, "I can eliminate this world and let you return to your original world. Isn't that good?"
"No need." Lin Xiao smiled and said: "I made a good friend, had a pleasant journey, and... an excellent companion."
"But, after all, this is not your world." Destruction Star said.
"It doesn't matter." Lin Xiao said, "My hometown is where I feel at ease."
Destruction Star: "Can't understand."
"It's time for me to go back." Lin Xiao said with a smile, "Someone is calling me."
"I can't understand..." Destruction Star repeated.
"Come on!" Lin Xiao was eager to try, "This is the last round of battle!"
The sun, which was obscured by the Star of Destruction, now revealed a ray of golden light.
A source of vitality fell into Lin Xiao's body together with the sunlight.
Lin Xiao slowly opened his eyes and was surprised to find that his injuries began to heal on their own.
Lifting his eyes and looking at the light at the end of space, Lin Xiao seemed to see a girl in red with one hand on her hips and a smile on her lips.
"I told you not to do this..."
Lin Xiao whispered to himself: "However, I will take responsibility."
Zheng!
Nidhogg looked shocked, looking at Lin Xiao who was out of control, quickly reacted, and shouted: "Now, Lin Xiao!"
"clear!"
Lin Xiao's eyes were awe-inspiring, looking up at the Destruction Star that covered the sky and the sun. The size of the lightsabers in his two palms increased dramatically!
Law·Annihilation!
Suddenly leaping up, the golden giant swung his giant sword with unprecedented power and passed by the God of Destruction.
The world seemed to fall into silence.
The next moment, a white line bloomed on the sphere of the God of Destruction, and then fissioned into a large number of light pillars.
Blue Star, countless people stared wide-eyed, covered their mouths with their hands, and held their breath.
Rumble!!!
The God of Destruction exploded, sending out violent shock waves. The explosions continued in succession, and a large amount of debris was floating in the universe!
Countless people looked shocked, and in an instant, overwhelming cheers and shouts rang out across the entire planet!!!
"Lin Xiao!!!"
"Epee man, Epee man!!"
"Oh my god, we really won, we won!!"
Jiang Shang slumped down on the chair weakly, showing a relieved smile.
Jolina stood tall in the wilderness with her high horse tail swaying in the wind. Her dim right eye was like a white crystal, and the corners of her mouth raised a sharp arc.
Lucifer was stunned: "Lin Xiao..."
The sun breaks through the clouds, the light drives out the darkness, and day comes again.
People took to the streets under the warm sunshine, celebrating loudly and chanting the name of the "Epee Man".
"The end is ended by the world champion!"
"I saw him blow up a planet with my own eyes!"
"Epee Man, my superman!!"
The immortal aura of the golden giant gradually dissipated, and Lin Xiao floated alone in the uninhabited sky, looking at the sun rising from the back of the blue star.
Nidhogg stared at Lin Xiao's back in the sun, and the corners of his mouth curved: "Humph... he's not bad, this kid."
The next moment, Lin Xiao collapsed softly.
Nidhogg's eyes suddenly changed, and he quickly rushed forward to hold Lin Xiao's body.
"Don't worry." Lin Xiao coughed up blood and said with a smile, "I won't die."
Nidhogg: "You guy..."
Lin Xiao sat cross-legged on top of Nidhogg's head, looking at the beautiful sun, and murmured: "It's so beautiful."
"After the war, it is indeed time to rest for a while." Nidhogg said indifferently.
Lin Xiao smiled and said: "No, at this time we should play the ending BGM."
Nidhogg: "What?"
Lin Xiao had a smile on her lips, her face was tall and handsome, and the sun was reflected in her deep eyes.
