I have discovered from a long time ago that human beings' so-called patience is really a very troublesome thing.
Delaying time, pretending, and only increasing suffering will have no impact on the future except to satisfy the so-called self-satisfaction.
Many times, if it weren't for the added pleasure, I wouldn't even want to know more about the so-called glory, justice, feelings, and past in their mouths.
But I never thought that one day I would be as patient as humans.
——■※
It was silent for a while, and the broken masks were submerged in the dust of asphalt concrete, scattered around the cracked potholes.
"Kakaka..."
The girl's body was half on the ground, and the powerful and heavy tentacles pressed down with great force. The eyeball-like patterns on it kept blinking, and the cracks that kept spreading outward told the story of its continuous downward exertion.
"Although I can understand your feelings of protecting your kind, I still have to mention that this is not your territory."
"I can't understand the rules of existences like your patron saint. Does it mean that in your territory, we outsiders don't even have the right to be angry?"
Naya still clutched the silver key-shaped cross in her hand. Between her eyebrows, three superimposed galaxy light balls emitted blue-black light, which was the symbol of the outer god Yog-Sothoth.
As the previous "Shadow Kill" examinations showed, Naya is the daughter of the outer god Yog-Sothoth, and through examination, she is not as imperfect as the two brothers recorded by the novelist. The existence and Naya's purity in some aspects even gave Xi Nian the illusion of being the incarnation of an alien god.
"The companion you are concerned about belongs to a hidden organization. If he makes a big fuss here, it will be difficult for him, right?"
"snort……"
The mist demon spoke softly, like a clear spring flowing into the heart. Naya tilted her mouth, stretched out her hand to comb the hanging hair on her temples, and loosened her grip on the cross.
As the power dissipated, the tentacles pressing on the girl turned into tens of thousands of blue-black butterflies, scattered around the girl like stars.
In the dim light, the girl trapped in the ground moved her body and slowly climbed up from the hole. The cloak covering her body was torn into pieces, and through the misplaced bandages, it looked like human ribs. The unknown metal is glowing with a mysterious luster.
This girl only has bones like this in her upper body?!
"Indeed, we can't make too much noise? After all, humans today have no tolerance for weirdness."
The girl stood up straight in a shaky posture. Surprisingly, the shoulders and head exposed when the cloak broke, all looked like normal human beings wrapped in flesh.
She has short silver hair, human-shaped bangs, a delicate face with melon seeds, emerald green eyes like night-light glass, and a small cherry mouth below, forming a pure and mouthless temperament.
She was originally called a girl because of her voice, but now after seeing her true appearance, her character design of a mouthless mechanical girl was directly implemented.
"But I am a weapon for killing people. It doesn't hurt to kill a few more, right?"
A huge shadow suddenly enveloped the three mist demons. Lin Shuwen raised his head and found a huge purple ice cone condensing and forming above them.
Through his "dark" perception, he could clearly see that it was filled with densely packed ice spikes and ice balls, which were large enough to invade a person's pores!
There is no escape.
"call……"
"Bang~!"
As if it was a magic trick on the stage, with the mist demon sighing softly, the huge ice cone that had condensed above everyone actually turned into a giant ice cone.
A dark purple mist of ice drifted into the wall, blown by a rootless evening breeze.
"Ultimatum, leave quietly."
"No, I haven't fallen into a retreat situation yet. Frozen Mist (Runese)"
"Water Talisman: Swirl."
"Crash la la la..."
The water flow out of thin air condensed into a whirlpool, blocking the piercing purple ice mist with incomparable precision. With each whirlpool and erosion, the water flow and mist continuously switched between the three states of water, and for a while, it turned into a lifelike arc-shaped ice
Shield, and for a while there was a cold dust mist rising up.
From the perspective of outsiders, this battle between ice and water is almost equal.
"tread!"
The light sound of stepping into the air flashed through the noisy collision of water mist. The girl held Fusol, the gun staff, and used a standard underground sprint to cross the water that had just condensed into an ice shield, and stabbed the mist demon in the face!
"when!!"
But Lin Shuwen condensed the darkness in time to make a blade, and he jumped up almost simultaneously to face the girl who was stabbing her downwards. His right arm was stretched forward, and on his arm was the dark element crystal blade that had just been condensed.
"Boom!"
"Tsk!"
The moment he caught the gun staff, Lin Shuwen retracted his arm and rebounded, hitting him continuously. With his super muscle strength, he knocked the opponent's posture and movements in the air. At the same time, with the reaction force of the rebound, Lin Shuwen could even stably hit the ground.
Fall back to the ground.
However, the girl who was knocked out of position could only fall from the air without any strength. Fluorescence flashed on her bones, and the ice mist under her body instantly condensed, forming a landing platform with just the right angle, allowing the girl to smash her feet into it.
At the same time, change back to the posture as quickly as possible.
However, just when she was about to land on the table, two splashes of water suddenly flashed across the table. With a loud collapse sound, the one-meter-high footing platform actually cracked vertically.
It broke into three parts and collapsed in the rising fog.
The girl in the air rolled her eyes. In her field of vision, the tall veiled goddess had just finished the roll call of the moves:
"Water Talisman: Cut the Sky."
"Explosion! (Runese)"
"boom!!!!"
The girl's voice was obviously filled with anger. She exerted force with her fingers while she was still in the air, and the gun staff Fusol gave off a mysterious luster. The mist demon who noticed the essence of the move calmly turned his head and saw Lin Shuwen who reacted quickly.
He opened his black wings and tightly protected Naya who was dazed beside him.
Just like Ye Lanxin before.
"※※……"
The deafening explosion drowned out Naya's panicked syllables. The fog demon stopped on the spot, looking at the water vapor that exploded in front of him in an instant, and silently raised the corners of his mouth:
"Water prison."
The steam from the explosion suddenly condensed into water. Before the girl who had just landed could react, a biological finger had already touched the back of her head.
Opposite her, the water that instantly condensed from gaseous to liquid shot straight towards her body. While passing through the gap between her ribs, it condensed into a water ball surrounding her. However, the girl held the gun stick in her hand before the water ball formed.
.
An inaudible silvery white light flashed past the tip of the gun.
"big sister!"
"I'm fine."
After the water ball was formed, Lin Shuwen immediately stood up from the ground, shook his wet body like a bird, and raised his eyes to look for the mist demon.
In front of him, where the mist demon originally stood, there was only a figure raising his hand and pointing forward.
A clone? Or an illusion?
"Is it an illusion?"
"Flowers in the Mirror, Moon in the Water, although your inhuman makeup has brought you
The combat power has been greatly improved, but the perception and sensitivity of living things have been lost. You can't even tell that I am an illusion standing there."
The mist demon bent his index finger against the back of the girl's head and tapped her head a few times, like a kind elder.
It would be more kind if there were not those two rapidly rotating water blades in the water prison.
"I can only say that you are smart. You see, the descendants of the Outer God over there didn't recognize it either."
The girl raised her head, and Lin Shuwen, who was named by her, smiled and scratched his head.
He really did not recognize that the mist demon in front of him was an illusion. Because whether it was vision, hearing, or feeling, the illusion in front of him only had the unique hollow feeling of the illusion at the moment when the mist demon's true body appeared.
"Thanks for the compliment, but I won't tell you the principle, so you can go."
"wait……"
Silvery white light illuminated half of the street. Before Lin Shuwen's open mouth closed, the girl was no longer in the water prison in front of him.
The mist demon retracted her hand, and the surrounding ice and water turned into colorless and odorless water vapor the moment she retracted her hand. Apart from being slightly damp, there were no traces of the violent fight she had just experienced.
"She activated teleportation magic before she was locked into the water prison. It's hard for me to intercept her. Besides, even if I did, it would only cause more trouble."
The mist demon folded his hands in front of him and floated towards Lin Shuwen gracefully, explaining his behavior unhurriedly.
"Are you the Lin Shuwen that kid Xi Nian mentioned?"
Lin Shuwen raised his eyebrows, a little surprised that the mist demon called his master Xi Nian a child, but he didn't think much about it and directly addressed the mist demon as a courtesy to his elders and seniors:
"Junior Lin Shuwen."
"Don't be formal. Although I have taught that child Xi Nian some heretical ways, I cannot accept the title of master, and for some special reasons, please keep a certain distance, similar to the distance between colleagues.
"
"Yes, thank you senior..."
"Wuxi, you can call me Wu."
"Thank you, Miss Wu, for coming to the rescue. The letter will be rescheduled for another day..."
"No need to change the date."
The mist demon raised his eyes and glanced up and down, looking up and down at Lin Shuwen, who was once again in ragged clothes. There was suddenly a hint of curiosity in his brows.
"Your current body can no longer support you to attend the party, so you should immediately return to the "Shadow Kill" medical team for treatment."
Just as the mist demon said, the force of the girl's blow that penetrated the internal organs stretched Lin Shuwen's body to the limit. The internal wound that he had originally sutured with dark elements was re-shocked by the punch.
The trembling and resilience caused Lin Shuwen's precision to plummet.
He really needs good treatment and rest now.
but.
The black rose on the left neck bloomed silently, and Lin Shuwen's body began to be entangled and branded with black thorns.
He took a few deep breaths and took out the last spare dress from the shadow.
"Sorry, I have to finish this cocktail party and at least show up, for the sake of the overall situation."
Lin Shuwen gritted his teeth and endured, while Naya, who had been invisible and silent, quietly looked at him walking towards the door, her eyes twinkling.
He actually...
"correct."
At this time, Lin Shuwen suddenly turned around, turned to Naya and said with a smile:
"Thank you. I will visit you again in the future to thank you, Princess Naya."
