Yuzi was dressed in white, her short white hair fluttering in the hot wind, her pupils were slightly dilated, her feet were weak, and she was calling softly as if she was sleepwalking.
"Did you fall under an illusion spell?"
Han Baiyi came over and slapped Yuzi's face with his two big hands. The pink and tender face was pinched hard and it turned red instantly.
Yuzi woke up confused, looked up at the wolf she hadn't seen for a long time, and missed him very much.
My face just hurts a little.
The corners of Butterfly's eyes, which were squatting in the corner to observe, suddenly twitched, and the corners of his mouth drooped unhappily, looking at him with a pair of triangular eyes.
"It's been a long time..."
Yuzi said in a weak tone, with a smile on his face.
It's just that my face is a little swollen and I can't speak fluently.
Han Baiyi helped Yuzi up and looked around, but Madam Butterfly did not appear immediately like in the game.
Pressing the knife with the palm of his hand, the handle felt rough and hard.
'Should the wood stubble on the handle of the knife be scraped?'
This thought came to Han Baiyi's mind.
Before Han Baiyi had time to think deeply about why there were wooden stubble on the knife he held every day, Han Baiyi saw that the handle of the knife, which was tied with a thick rope, suddenly sprouted countless sharp iron thorns like a mace.
Before he could let go of the knife, his palm was instantly pierced, severe pain came from his palm, and Han Baiyi's eyes widened.
'What the hell is this?!'
‘Isn’t this scene in the game??’
As if he thought of something, Han Baiyi gritted his teeth and endured the pain, took out a song seed from his pocket and crushed it violently. There was a sudden roar in his ears and his brain was shaking.
Accompanied by the violent explosion of Mingzhong, Han Baiyi finally regained consciousness.
When he opened his eyes again, there was no iron thorn on the handle of Kakimaru's knife.
Looking up, two slender needles were tracing along his scalp.
The ear was pierced, and a streak of blood streaked in the air.
In just one second at night, those two long needles would pierce his brain along his eye sockets.
Han Baiyi felt a chill in his heart.
He found that he seemed to rely a little too much on the game guide.
He had never seen the illusion scene just now in a game.
"Those two slaps are your punishment for disrespecting Miko-sama."
Accompanied by an old and hoarse female voice, a tall figure fell on the roof dozens of meters high.
He landed lightly on the ground, his movements as stiff as a puppet being pulled by strings.
Raising her head, Madame Butterfly's aging face was revealed.
"Son of Owl."
Han Baiyi pressed the knife with one hand:
"Madame Butterfly."
With his eyes fixed on the visitor, Han Baiyi pressed back habitually.
"Please leave, Miko-sama."
But it seemed that it was because he had grown a little taller after three years. This time Han Baiyi did not press the familiar flat chest. Yuzi, whose cheeks were still swollen, looked confused and took a few steps back as he pressed her forehead.
"Hmm...what about you?"
Miko's face hurt a little when she spoke.
Han Baiyi said calmly:
"Go and finish what I have to finish."
"I see."
Yuzi nodded firmly and ran to the corner.
After Yuzi ran away, Madam Butterfly raised the long needle in her hand and said with a cold expression:
"Let's get started."
"etc!"
Han Baiyi suddenly reached out and paused.
Madam Butterfly was stunned, her hand trembled and she almost threw out the long needle. Her white brows furrowed and her forehead lines were so crowded that they could kill a fly. Her tone was hoarse and stern:
"I don't remember ever teaching you the rules of calling timeout during a fight, wolf."
Han Baiyi ignored her and said to himself: "I'm curious, why would you do such a thing?"
"Madame Butterfly."
Han Baiyi still pressed the knife: "If I read correctly, the puncture wound on the adoptive father's body should be caused by you, right?"
After experiencing so many battles in the Sekiro world, Han Baiyi could tell the cause of wounds based on his experience, even if he had learned nothing.
But he still couldn't figure it out, even when playing games.
"Although Miko was hit by a genjutsu, she woke up with just two slaps. After waking up, she didn't even have any side effects. She is completely different from Inosuke and the others."
"If you want to gain the power of immortality through illusion, you should obviously use a more powerful illusion."
"Looking at your appearance now, you are obviously protecting her, right?"
Han Baiyi questioned, pulled out his knife and pointed it at the old man in front of him.
His eyes were complicated and his heart was in a mess.
Madam Butterfly, this is a person with very little background experience in the game and not much introduction.
According to the official answer, although the wolf was adopted by the owl, the Lady Butterfly was responsible for all subsequent training.
To the wolf, Mrs. Butterfly can be said to be both a teacher and a mother. Even compared to the owl, she is no worse.
But she did a series of very strange things.
He kidnapped his son, seriously injured Inosuke's mother and son, and fought fiercely with the wolf risking his life.
None of these three things fit her personality.
However, limited to the content of the plot, players cannot analyze the reasons for the abnormal behavior of the Butterfly Lady, and can only draw an ambiguous conclusion that 'the immortal body affects the mind'.
Many players believe that Xiao Xiao and Madam Butterfly, these once righteous Wei Mingzhong, did all kinds of things because they could not resist the temptation of immortality and drank the "water of transformation" that can make people immortal but crazy.
Abnormal things.
But the reason is too far-fetched.
As a dramatist, Han Baiyi is very curious about the stories behind them.
"I didn't expect that the wolf..."
Madam Butterfly raised the long needle in her hand and looked directly at him with her cloudy eyes under her drooped eyelids.
"You actually turned into such a windy old woman."
Han Baiyi's expression froze.
"bring it on."
"Kill me and I will tell you the answer."
As she spoke, Madam Butterfly shook her hands, holding two black needles half a meter long in each hand.
Although these two iron pillars are long, thick, and sharp and have edges on both sides, they are just black needles.
With her hands crossed on her chest, Madam Butterfly's eyes were cold.
Han Baiyi's eyes were filled with confusion when he heard such a strange request for the first time in his life.
What's more... I don't know how I will know the answer after killing you!
‘Dangdang’
The two flying needles seemed to draw a blank channel in the air, which became more and more obvious in the hot air of steaming water.
Han Baiyi had quick eyes and quick hands. He struck out the long needle with two slanting swords. He twisted his feet to avoid the flying needle and rushed towards Madam Butterfly.
Opening and closing his eyes, the pupils were suddenly shrouded in a layer of pale white, and green veins appeared around the eye sockets.
Spiritual eyes.
Madam Butterfly's eyes moved calmly, her speed was very fast, and the way she moved was also very strange, as if she was skating on the ground as she moved to avoid Han Baiyi's thrusts, with long needles in her hands, and tinkling sounds in her ears.
sound.
Moreover, her attack method is very flexible. The long needle has blades on both sides, which is slender and sharp. If you scrape it at will, it will make a long gash.
Not only that, Lady Butterfly also had long needles under her feet, and every kick was tantamount to a powerful horizontal chop.
Han Baiyi cautiously maintained a defensive and counterattack posture, like a rock standing in the rough waves.
However, although Madame Butterfly in front of her is older, her movements are extremely flexible and her stamina is long. She can attack dozens of times without any change in speed and strength, and there is no slight deformation in her attack movements. This kind of endurance
It can be called a monster.
If it hadn't been for the fact that Kakimaru was the strongest sword of a wolf, it would have been cut off by a long, slender needle if it had been an ordinary sword.
But...something seems not quite right.
Opening a pair of spiritual eyes, Han Baiyi could clearly capture every movement of Madam Butterfly, but he could not see the slightest clue from her body.
Even the unique sword energy and vitality in the world of Sekiro does not exist, it is just an empty shell.
