Chapter 650 Arianna’s Thank You Gift (Ten Thousand)
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
Clear, crisp sounds, like the sound of a broken guitar string, rang out one after another.
As the angel reliefs faded away one by one, the silver-white threads that originally connected the angel and Arianna began to break one by one.
When the last thread broke, the remaining six angel reliefs also completely disappeared, as if they had never appeared. If it weren't for the lingering smell of decay in the secret room, people would even mistakenly believe that everything that happened before was just an illusion.
call.
Ron exhaled.
He quietly raised his hand and wiped his forehead.
When the angels retreated, Ron stood still and just watched.
What a joke, he is almost unable to hold it in any longer.
After using the power of the Law of Killing, the Law of Time, and the Law of Force in succession, Ron even felt that there was a high possibility that the thunder from the sky would explode directly on his forehead in the next second.
He is like a miscellaneous performance artist, walking on a tightrope as thin as a piano wire, with a bottomless abyss below the wire.
He didn't even dare to continue using his own power.
It couldn't be better that these six angels were so tactful and left on their own.
If Ron had not received professional training and had good control over his emotions, and was not worried that the angels would notice anything unusual, he would have laughed out loud when the six angels evacuated.
The six angels evacuated, and the pressure in the secret room suddenly disappeared.
After Ron let out a long sigh, he immediately began to control his own strength. After spending a long time, he finally suppressed the energy in his body that could burst out at any time.
After doing all this, Ron looked at Arianna.
Oddly enough, Arianna fell into a coma because she was entangled by an angel who tried to take over her body and replace it.
But now the connection between Arianna and the angels has been completely severed. Logically, Arianna should be able to wake up now, but at this moment, Arianna is still sitting cross-legged on the ground, as if in a trance.
Her complexion looked much better.
No longer as gray as before.
The breath is no longer disordered.
However, her body still twitched and shuddered from time to time as if she had been electrocuted, and her muscles seemed to be spasming.
Seeing Arianna's appearance, Ron felt something in his heart. He had roughly guessed what was going on. Arianna must have been eroded by the angel after passing through the seven illusions.
Originally, after the seven layers of illusion, the next step was to cut off the shackles.
But this process was forcibly interrupted by the appearance of an angel.
For a long time afterwards, Arianna had been fighting against the will of the angel.
Now that all the angels have disappeared, Arianna has started to break through again, trying to cut off the shackles... However, although the angels failed to successfully corrode Arianna, Arianna has suffered serious damage in both spirit and energy during this long process of fighting against the angels.
To be frank, Arianna is basically in a state of exhaustion right now.
In this state, it is almost impossible to break the shackles of destiny.
But obviously, Arianna didn't want to miss such an opportunity. After all, once she gave up, it would be much more difficult to break through next time, and she would have to go through the seven illusions again.
The seven-level illusion is extremely dangerous, and if you are not careful, your soul will be torn to pieces.
To put it bluntly, no matter which practitioner can break through the seven levels of illusion, it is a combination of strength and luck.
Arianna couldn't guarantee that she would have such good luck next time, so the Valkyrie was not going to give up. But in her current state, even if Arianna tried her best to squeeze out her soul, she couldn't expect to squeeze out much power.
My whole body is overdrawn.
Seeing that Arianna's body was still twitching, Ron sighed and put his fingers to Arianna's lips.
Between the two fingers, there was a milky white heart-shaped crystal, which was the Angel's Heart that Ron had just obtained.
Angel's Heart is high in energy and is easily absorbed and digestible.
There is no need for the practitioner to actively digest the power in it. The energy will automatically dissipate from the angel's heart and merge into the practitioner's body.
When Ron's fingers came to her mouth, Arianna seemed to feel the attraction brought by Angel's Heart. It was like pure instinct. Her lips slowly opened and her small lilac tongue flexibly rolled up Angel's Heart.
As soon as it entered her mouth, Angel Heart melted immediately in Arianna's mouth.
The rich, abundant, and pure energy began to quickly integrate into Arianna's limbs and bones. Her originally exhausted body was refilled with energy, and even her soul, which had been squeezed to the extreme and exhausted, was nourished again.
Then, Arianna's body suddenly trembled three times in succession.
It was as if something tense was cut off at this moment, and Arianna's body relaxed visibly.
This time, he didn't have to wait too long, maybe less than half an hour, Arianna had already opened her eyes, and the moment her eyelashes raised, Ron could clearly see a flash of light passing through her golden eyes.
Sharp, like a knife blade.
The aura of Arianna also expanded instantly, and the oppressive feeling unique to the Realm of Destruction came over her.
Of course, for Ron, who was also in the Destruction Realm and had one foot already stepped into the Demigod Realm, this feeling of oppression was well within his tolerable range.
Then, the surging breath quickly subsided and re-entered Arianna's body.
In a short period of time, the Valkyrie returned to her former appearance, except that her pretty face was filled with confidence and assertiveness.
After taking a deep breath, Arianna finally stood up from the ground. However, perhaps because she had been in meditation for too long, when she just stood up, Arianna seemed a little uncomfortable with her current state. Her legs went weak and she almost fell.
But, a Valkyrie is a Valkyrie after all.
Her experience in training and fighting was even richer than Ron's. She quickly adjusted her state and then bowed respectfully to Ron.
She knew very well that if Ron hadn't helped her, she would have died long ago.
This is gratitude from the heart.
Ron could have ignored it, after all, the relationship between him and Ron was not close.
Even if Ron was worried about being corrupted, he could have chosen to destroy himself directly. There was no need to risk entering the secret room and fighting eight angels alone.
Arianna knew that Ron was very powerful, but she also knew how difficult it was for a human being to fight against eight angels. It could be said that the moment Ron entered the secret room, he was putting his life on the line.
Even though Arianna and Ron didn't have much contact or a close relationship, perhaps it was precisely because of this that Arianna was more touched.
What's more, when he tried to cut the shackles, his body was exhausted and he had no power to cut them off. However, Ron fed him something, which made his exhausted body full of energy in a short time.
Even the extremely exhausted spirit was restored to vitality.
Although Arianna had no idea what the object was, she thought it must be a rare and priceless treasure.
In all these years since he was a child, Ron is the second person who is willing to treat him like this...the first one is Dolores.
Although Arianna is the Valkyrie of Granville, before the appearance of heretics like Ron, she could be said to be the most powerful existence in the entire Granville. Even Holt the 474th and the Great Saint Christian were far behind Arianna.
Looks powerful and of high status.
However, Arianna's life was not as good as others imagined, at least when she was young.
Arianna didn't remember much about her childhood. She only knew that she was born into a very poor civilian family. When she was still young, only five years old, she was kicked out of the house by her parents and left to wander in Adams to fend for herself.
The reason is very simple: there is no food left at home.
After paying various taxes, the meager harvest produced from a few acres of thin land left very little food, which was not enough to feed a family.
In Arianna's limited memories of her childhood, hunger occupies almost the entire memory. She has almost never experienced what it feels like to have a full stomach. She could barely survive on normal days, but she encountered a disaster year. When everyone could not survive, Arianna was the first to be abandoned because she was just a girl.
She was unable to become a labor force in the family.
Arianna wandered in Adams for a long time. Was it one year, two years, or three years? Arianna could not remember clearly. She only knew that the days of wandering were one of the darkest times in her life, second only to the despair when she was just abandoned by her parents.
It's really difficult for a five-year-old girl to survive in such a cold world.
She begged everywhere and was looked down upon.
Occasionally, he would get some copper coins or steamed buns, but they would be quickly snatched away by other older and stronger beggars, leaving him with no chance of getting them into his mouth.
She could only desperately rummage through the garbage dump, looking for dirty and filthy bones, just for a little meat residue stuck on them. Moldy buns, rotten vegetable leaves, and bad fruits were all God's gift to Arianna. No matter how disgusting those things tasted, Arianna had to endure it and stuff them into her mouth. Only in this way could she survive.
She once found a rat's nest, and inside it was a nest of baby rats that had not yet opened their eyes. It was a delicacy that she had not tasted for a long time, and at that time, she felt so happy.
She once fought with a skinny old dog for a bone until midnight. Her body was covered with bruises from the bites of the old dog, but she won in the end. She strangled the old dog to death with her slender fingers, and the old dog's corpse became her food.
There is no other reason, just to survive.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
In this world filled with coldness and despair, if you want to survive, you have to be more ferocious and cruel than any other existence.
It was pouring rain and she could only hide in a bridge hole and was nearly swept away by the flood.
On days when the sky was covered with ice and snow, she could only huddle together with a group of old beggars. Even a piece of tattered newspaper could provide some shelter from the cold.
Whenever Arianna thought back to everything she had been through, she couldn't help but wonder how she, a little five-year-old, had managed to survive. It was simply a miracle.
On her sixth birthday, she was kidnapped by a group of vicious men.
At first, she didn't understand what those men wanted to do by taking her away. Kidnapping? That couldn't be possible. She wasn't one of those noble ladies wearing beautiful little skirts and exquisite sparkling jewelry. She was just a girl from a commoner's family who was driven out of her home. It was impossible for her to pay them a penny of ransom.
Kidnapping yourself is a thankless task with absolutely no gain.
But soon, Arianna understood what those people wanted to do by capturing her.
A man grabbed her arm and twisted it hard in front of her puzzled gaze. At that moment, Arianna felt an unprecedented pain sweeping through her body. Even when she was bitten all over by an old dog, she had never felt such pain.
Even later, when Arianna had become a Valkyrie and had experienced countless battles, including many life-and-death conflicts, and had suffered even more fatal injuries, in Arianna's memory, that one was still the most despairing.
She was shaking with pain.
She was in so much pain that she broke out in a cold sweat.
She even felt like she was about to faint.
It can even be said that at that time, she really had the intention of just dying and putting an end to all of it. At least if she died, she wouldn't have to suffer any more.
Then the man threw a broken bowl in front of him.
From then on, Arianna became a little beggar on the streets of Adams, with twisted limbs and a broken bowl in her hand, begging everywhere.
Perhaps because of the twisted limbs, that twisted arm like a pretzel really won Arianna a lot of sympathy, and her broken bowl was filled with copper coins almost every day.
However, these copper coins had nothing to do with Arianna. Every night, the copper coins would be taken away by the men, and all that was left for her was a rotten and moldy steamed bun.
Once the copper coins he begged for became less, he would be beaten immediately by those people, and he would not even be able to get a moldy steamed bun.
Her body became thinner and thinner.
The bones stand out.
She thought her life was destined to be like this, and that she would die from extreme exhaustion, hunger and malnutrition, or be beaten to death by those men.
Until that day, Arianna's fate changed.
Arianna will never forget what happened that day.
That day, she was begging as usual, and she saw a girl younger than herself who was dressed in gorgeous clothes.
She was very beautiful. Although she was young, she already exuded extraordinary dignity and elegance. Her wavy golden hair was so dazzling that it shone like gold in the sun.
When she saw this girl, Arianna couldn't help but feel a strong jealousy full of evil thoughts, or even hatred. She hated why this girl could enjoy fine clothes and delicious food while she could only become a beggar with a twisted limbs?
Why was fate so unfair? Why was it me and not her that was caught by those damned men?
Arianna knew that this was a bad idea, but deep down she couldn't control herself and had such a sinful thought.
But no matter what she thought in her heart, Arianna still walked towards the noble girl with the broken bowl.
She knew that girls of this age had not yet been tainted by the vices of the nobility, and this might be the kindest time of their lives.
When begging from such girls, whether because of the kindness that has not yet been extinguished in their hearts or to show the dignity of the nobility, these girls will often give some gifts, and sometimes even silver coins.
She walked over and raised the broken bowl.
The mysterious girl looked at her.
For some reason, the moment the mysterious girl looked at her, Arianna felt a strong sense of shame deep in her heart. In the girl's big golden eyes, there was only sympathy, pity and regret.
Ordinary noble girls, even if they have to maintain the dignity of the nobility and even if they have to appear kind in front of others, cannot hide the disgust in their eyes for their tattered clothes, dirty body, and the foul odor on their bodies.
However, Arianna did not feel any such emotion in the eyes of this noble girl.
She ignored her own dark and dirty body, and gently stroked Arianna's arm with her beautiful fingers, and asked the most tearful question in her life: "Does it hurt?"
At that moment, Arianna couldn't hold on any longer.
Tears burst out like a flood.
This was the first time in this world that someone truly cared about her, and from this girl she actually felt a warmth that was even happier than from her parents.
The girl did not give Arianna the silver coins, but took Arianna away.
She helped Arianna clean the dirt off her body, put on the little skirt that she had always envied, and even found the best priest to heal Arianna's twisted right arm and gave Arianna the opportunity to practice and master power.
It was then that Arianna learned the identity of this girl, Dolores, the eldest princess of the Kingdom of Granville.
From then on, Arianna swore in her heart that she would protect Dolores for the rest of her life, no matter what the cost, even if it meant sacrificing her own life.
Even though Arianna's strength has reached the peak of legend and she has become the most powerful Valkyrie in Granville, this belief has never changed.
In Arianna's heart, Dolores is the only person she cares about.
And now, Ron is the second.
It is a very happy thing to have someone who cares about you.
Arianna had a faint smile on her face and she bowed deeply to Ron, as if to thank him for his previous help.
She didn't say anything.
Arianna was a woman who was not good at speaking, and only when she was in front of Dolores would she behave like a normal girl. Although she was grateful to Ron and did not hate him, it was obviously difficult for her to communicate with him like a normal person right away.
There seemed to be some distress on her face. After thinking carefully for a long time, Arianna suddenly thought of something. She put her hands behind her neck, unbuttoned the buttons with her nimble fingers, took off the necklace from her neck, and handed it to Ron: "Thank you!"
