"Guess?" Knight of Holy Lily grabbed the scimitar in Elaine's hand without fear and twisted the blade horizontally. The blade instantly created a larger wound on her chest and shattered her heart. Due to the massive bleeding
, she died instantly.
...The unreasonable guy! He died so simply and completely that she didn’t even intend to reason with Elaine or allow the matter to be undone!
Is the French Order of Holy Lily originally a knight of this nature? This is already a martyrdom-like act that only religious lunatics would do!
This country is indeed sick. Elaine knew how dark the upper echelon of the French army was from the attitude of the Knights of the Red Thorn towards soldiers who were transformed from slaves. This Knights of the Holy Lily, which is crowned as loyal and holy, is composed of women.
, in fact, it’s not much better than the Red Thorn Knights. Aren’t these all a bunch of lunatics?!
"Damn it, damn it!" Elaine retracted the blade angrily, leaving Guerlain behind, and rushed over to check on Bailey: "Bay, Bailey? Are you okay?!"
"Brother...Brother..." The little fox's face turned blue, as if he was suffocated. His breath was weak, and there was a black mark on his neck, as if someone pinched his neck with great force, leaving a mark on his throat.
Large bruises.
This is...a curse!
Elaine, who had seen many kinds of curses, recognized them at a glance. The Knight of Saint Lily knew some strange spells, but she didn't expect Guerlain to even use spells. She just now, no, she should have been there a long time ago
, she cast this spell on Bailey - in order to ensure Bailey's death. When Bailey was disobedient and refused to die for Prince Cloval, she would activate this spell and curse Bailey to
die.
What a vicious woman!
The fox-man boy's breathing became weaker and weaker, as if he couldn't breathe in or out at all. The curse wrapped around his neck should be the kind of curse that can affect people's normal breathing. This kind of curse
, it’s like being choked by someone so hard that you can’t breathe normally. It’s a very deadly poison, and it exists just to kill people.
"What, what should I do?" Even Queeg was a little panicked.
"There is only one way." The white lion boy whispered.
All of this is indeed destined. Let Elaine meet Bailey at this moment, and let Elaine have the last resort to save Bailey.
Just use the [Holy Cloth] to transplant the murderous curse on Bailey to Elaine.
But in this case, it might be Elaine's turn to die. The curse is so strong that Elaine doesn't know if he can resist it. He still has his own tasks to complete, and his father Bors has to
Go to the rescue. In order to save Bailey, a strange child you have only known for a day, will you give up your original mission, or even give up your own life?
Isn't this too...stupid?
(Be the fool, Elaine.)
A certain thought spread in his mind.
(If you can't even save the child in front of you, let alone save your loved ones.)
(If you give up saving even the child in front of you, you are not qualified to save more people.)
He silently pulled off a piece of the holy cloth, and then carefully wrapped the remaining cloth around the neck of the little fox Bailey.
——Curse, transfer!
The next moment, Elaine realized the horror of the curse. It was like dozens of tons of pressure being exerted on his throat. This was not an actual force, just a feeling, but the pain caused by that feeling was
It was real enough. Real enough to make him stop breathing.
(So painful...!)
Elaine fell to the ground, foaming at the mouth.
(Can't breathe...!)
He used his remaining strength to try to wrap the piece of cloth torn from the holy cloth around his neck.
(This pain must be stopped immediately!)
He tied the cloth around his neck, almost suffocating himself. However, the tighter the holy cloth was tied, the more he was able to breathe and recover from the suffocating feeling of the curse.
He used physical suffocation to resist the mental suffocation. He had to be careful not to tie himself up with the holy cloth to truly suffocate him to death, but also not to tie him too loosely to allow the curse to be exposed.
take.
"Ugh...cough cough cough cough cough cough!" He came back to his senses after a series of coughs.
"Are you okay?" As soon as he came back to his senses, he saw Queeg looking at him with concern.
"No, it's okay..." Elaine wiped away her tears and snot, and slowly got up: "Where is Bailey?"
"Big brother..." the little fox replied with a weak breath, but his condition had improved because the curse on him had been transferred to Elaine.
"What...have you done?" He seemed to realize what Elaine did to him: "Why...for someone like me..."
Then he burst into tears.
"It's okay, it's okay..." The white lion man hugged the child and comforted him in a low voice: "Everything will be fine... Everything will be fine."
Boom! There was a sound from a distance. The ship's power furnace was exploded. The sticky jelly that burst out from the sticky bomb tightly entangled the core of the power furnace, making it unable to
It can't be repaired without shutting down and cleaning it thoroughly.
At this time, the ship's sailing speed also slowed down. It was time to retreat.
"This way." Queeg used his lightsaber to cut a gap in the warehouse wall and waved for Elaine and Bailey to come over.
Elaine and Bailey almost staggered up and walked towards the gap.
"What should I do with this woman?" Queeg glanced at the body of the Holy Lily Knight on the ground and asked.
"Burn it." Elaine said, taking out a bag of flame rosin from her pocket, igniting the rosin directly with a weapon, and then ignited Guerlain's body. When the fire first spread and burned Guerlain's body beyond recognition,
Elaine kicked the body overboard.
Boom! Due to the heavy armor she was wearing, the body of the female knight quickly sank into the Garonne River and the bottom of the river, and never came up again.
"She, she didn't have to die." Elaine groaned: "Why, just, just refused to compromise."
"Because he is a knight." The young leopard man replied, hugging Bailey and jumping into the river.
Elaine followed suit and fell into the river with a thud.
The feeling of suffocation, coldness, and heaviness instantly spread throughout Elaine's body. There was a curse on his left shoulder, and the curse was still burning; there was also a curse on his ankles, and the curse was like two heavy shackles, dead
Dragging his legs; there was also a curse on his neck, which was like two vicious hands, constantly pinching Elaine's throat.
All the pain and discomfort broke out at the same time when he fell into the water. Elaine almost drowned. But he paddled tenaciously in the water, trying to get out of this predicament. Someone grabbed him with one hand and dragged him to the shore.
.
"Ha, ha, ha..." He panted. He could neither take a big breath nor stop himself from panting. Due to the lack of oxygen, a dizzy feeling crawled onto his scalp.
[The Flying Frenchman] abandoned Elaine and his group and had already sailed a long distance on the Seine. Even with the backup power, the ship's speed was still much faster than human pace - not to mention that Elaine and the others had no power at all.
Moving, just going with the flow.
"Are you okay, big brother?" Bailey trembled and came over to ask.
"No, it's okay..." Elaine said, "Yes, I have to run away from here. Be patient, wait, wait, wait and see again."
There is still Guerlain's body sunk in the river, and Elaine naturally doesn't want to stay here for a moment longer. God knows when those Holy Lily Knights noticed something was wrong and came to look for someone. If they found out that Guerlain was killed (otherwise, she would be considered responsible)
.Killed), Elaine and others disappeared again, this blood feud will definitely fall on Elaine. Then it will be unexplainable.
At this point, they can only avoid the group of female knights at a distance. Instead of going to Bordeaux, they will go directly west to other port cities in France, and then take a boat to Great Britain. And it will probably be night before entering the city. They still have
I had to find a place to light a bonfire first to dry off my soaked body.
...The trip will be delayed again.
"Want to carry you?" Queeg was already carrying Bailey, and at this time he turned to ask Elaine.
"No, no need." The white lion man groaned. It was impossible for the leopard to carry Elaine and Bailey around at the same time. Doing so would only wear down Queeg.
Despite being exhausted, Elaine still got up tenaciously and headed west in this wilderness.
After walking for an unknown distance - Elaine herself gave up counting and just walked mechanically - they reached a small hill with woods beside it.
Bailey coughed continuously for a long time, and because it was too cold to continue, Queeg suggested lighting a fire here to keep warm. Elaine was very reluctant, because they had not left the Seine too far, and it was still very unsafe here.
.Although he was unwilling, his own body was about to collapse, so he had no choice but to nod in agreement.
They camped on a dry rocky site along the foot of the mountain, with Elaine looking after Bailey while Queeg ran to gather wood for the fire.
As the bonfire gradually lit up, a burst of warmth spread around. Elaine simply took off her and Bailey's coats and huddled together by the fire to roast. The little fox was coughing violently before, but now he
After my body warmed up, I gradually stopped coughing and wheezing.
"Big brother~" Once out of danger, Bailey relaxed and clung to Elaine: "Ah, the smell of vanilla is so fragrant~ I like big brother so much... I want to be with big brother forever..."
"You, what are you talking about?" Elaine blushed and said, "Wait, when we get to Great Britain, I will send you to the orphanage that my friend is taking care of, okay? The orphanage in Great Britain is a real welfare.
There are facilities, clean clothes, nutritious food, warm beds... They will, will take good care of you. Just stay there and be good, and make friends with other children, okay?"
Bailey was silent for a moment.
"I don't want... I want to be with my big brother." He rested his head on Elaine's arm: "No?"
"But I will go to a very dangerous place next. If you go there, you may not be able to come back..." The white lion boy explained in embarrassment: "No, you can't go to that kind of place with me."
Yes, you will die."
"But--"
"Don't be willful, be willful. Please." Elaine advised.
After all, Bailey was a considerate child. He did not continue to make trouble: "...Okay. But before arriving in Great Britain, I want my big brother to play with me all the time."
"Well, well... I'll always be with you." The white lion boy could only reply.
"Hehehe." The little fox came over happily, buried his head in Elaine's chest, rubbed his face hard, and wagged his tail hard. It was almost as if Elaine had a smell that Bailey liked very much (maybe it was)
), he wanted to smell that smell all the time.
"Completely, in love?" Queeg said with a smile, adding fuel to the fire. While Elaine and Bailey were chatting, Leopard had already set up the automatic tent.
"Yes, I want you to take care of it..." Elaine blushed and said, "Oh, are you planning to camp here tonight?"
"Just take a rest." Queeg said, "Why don't you hurry up before it gets dark? At least find a village and spend the night."
Indeed, this place is not far from the "site of the incident". It is not a wise move to camp here for a long time. After Elaine and the others have dried their hair and clothes and stopped shivering from the cold, they will set off.
.
So why did Queeg set up that tent? This guy is too idle.
"It's windy outside, come in quickly." Quigg waved and said, "Sleep with big brother."
Unable to bear it, Elaine punched Queeg on the cat's face: "Don't, don't say something that can easily be misunderstood!"
