With a soft slur.
Perhaps it was due to insufficient force, or perhaps it was due to Ma Lun's precise control, remembering Qin Sheng's instructions.
The spear pierced Aina's heart, but only scratched Beck's skin.
Warm blood flowed from her chest, and her sclera became incredibly clear at that moment, as if she wanted to memorize the face in front of her.
Aina slowly opened her mouth, her lips moved slightly, but she couldn't say anything.
Exhausted, she collapsed into Baker's arms.
A faint fragrance wafted into Baker's nostrils as she fell into his embrace.
As written in a certain book.
What remains deep in our memories are often vague and intangible things. You remember a person not because of their beauty or appearance, but because of a scent you caught by chance.
Young Baker couldn't recall what the girl next door looked like at all; all he could remember was the scent of her repeatedly holding him in her arms.
The fragrance of the hair was like a hand, slowly lifting the hazy memories, gradually making the figure clearer and overlapping with the person before me.
“Aina, Aina Rupert.”
Baker called out softly, gently nudging the figure in his arms, wanting to tell her that he recognized her.
It was only then that Baker realized that Aina had seen through his identity when they first met.
Because of that game, Baker's life was miserable. He was responsible for stomping out the cigarette butts his father threw on the ground.
As for the shoes, they had long been sold off in countless gambles, and the scorch marks on his feet accompanied him as he grew up.
During that period, Baker felt like he was in hell, but the girl next door was like an angel, illuminating his life.
Baker finally remembered that it was Aina who had treated his wounds back then, and she knew exactly how many marks were on his feet.
Some of it is a joke, but it's the truth.
Because of these scorch marks, Aina recognized herself.
Baker suddenly realized that Aina's change in attitude was normal and very much in line with her past self.
Looking at the figure in her arms, she perhaps felt neither resentment nor bitterness. At this moment, she closed her eyes, like a sleeping princess, waiting for the prince to awaken her.
Unfortunately, the prince did not recognize her.
"I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry, Aina. I only just recognized you..."
Beck held the figure in his arms even tighter, even as the spear slowly pierced his chest.
But he didn't stop it; it seemed that only pain could make him aware that he was still alive, and only pain could make him feel better.
Baker seemed oblivious to the tears streaming down his face, nestled close to the figure in his arms.
Some people are alive, but they are still dead.
Ma Lun raised an eyebrow. "He's got it under control."
Although he was a little angry at being tricked, he still understood the priorities. If he angered that person, it wouldn't just be a matter of pills.
As Qin Sheng instructed, Aina was killed, while Baker remained alive.
But now this person seems to have been dead for a while, with no expression on their face, as if they've gone mad.
Um…
While Ma Lun was still pondering, Qin Sheng remained silent, so they simply waited.
Just like a typical villain, at this moment, instead of pressing his advantage, Malone quietly waited for his opponent to unleash his full power.
A moment later, the scent on Aina's body gradually dissipated, waking Beck from the familiar aroma.
“Aina…”
"Tsk tsk." At this moment, Ma Lun continued to play the villain, following Qin Sheng's instructions to start mocking.
"Baker, just be honest and hand over the fusion pills now. Your girlfriend is dead, and the fusion pills you have will end up in my hands too."
"If only I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have done it in the first place."
Baker stiffly raised his head, looking at Malone's figure above him, and the sadness in his eyes began to surge like waves, turning into countless hatreds.
"Young man, let me give you some advice as an adult."
Without changing his expression, Malone calmly said, "What you should resent is your own weakness and powerlessness."
"Powerless...?"
Baker gripped the spear that was embedded in his chest and slowly pulled it out, inch by inch, stained with blood.
"Aina, wait for me, I will avenge you right away."
Baker moved very gently, as if he were setting down a fragile crystal glass.
"hehe."
Malone just smiled at what he said.
Do you really think that taking the Fusion Pill makes you a believer?
Even among believers, very few can stand against a king across the borders of a Grandmaster, so he wasn't flustered at all; this confidence came from his strength.
Beck wasn't in a hurry, fearing that he would lose control after taking the pill and damage Aina's body, so he walked a little further away.
Ma Lun wasn't in a hurry. The mission was complete, and the remaining fusion pills could be obtained with a little searching.
"rest assured."
Seeing Baker stop, Malone gripped a spear in his hand: "As an elder, I will leave you a complete body, so that you can be buried with her."
At this moment, figures flashed all around, and other pursuers also arrived nearby, completely surrounding Baker.
The only path left for him now is to replicate the miracle from last time.
"call…"
Baker stared intently at Malone; his only motivation for living now was revenge!
And this is exactly what Qin Sheng wanted to see.
"Watch."
As Baker took out a handful of pills, Qin Sheng's voice rang out, stopping Ma Lun, who was almost brainless.
ah?
Malone was a little confused. Had he really just wasted this fusion pill like that?
His lips twitched; he seemed to realize that this mission might be a trap…
At this moment, Beck didn't want to think, nor did he want to think.
He stuffed the fusion pills into his mouth in one gulp, devouring them like a starving ghost, not wanting to wait even a few seconds.
He swallowed the pills with a gurgling sound, and as the outer sugar coating was broken, the fused pills began to take effect quickly.
A familiar feeling resurfaced.
Beck instantly felt strange sensations throughout his body, even more intense and violent than before!
That's because the properties of these fusion pills have all been selected by Qin Sheng.
Although they exhibit different characteristics, they are all related to a single element.
fire!
In an instant, Beck's body swelled up like a ball of flesh, with various strange beast arms spreading out from his body, and countless forces clashing within him.
This time, he truly lacked any human characteristics; even his head and eyes showed signs of mutation.
It felt like it would burst open like a balloon in the next second!
At this moment, everyone around them became serious, and fear appeared on their faces.
Ma Lun felt the same way, cold sweat pouring down his back.
But this is not because of Baker.
It was the person who appeared beside him!
Qin Sheng, Master Qin!
