[373 – can start a prairie]
The face that belonged to Melissa in the fire raised a smile, a pair of eyes as bright as gems curved into crescents, and she opened her mouth as if she was about to say something.
The sparks of fire that lingered at Joseph’s fingertips dissipated in the cold wind.
The knight’s outstretched hand froze in midair, and the ashes and snowflakes swirled and scattered in all directions, unable to even be carried by the wind into her father’s hands.
Joseph’s eyes were splitting, time seemed to stop on him, and he stared blankly at his lovely daughter turned to ashes in front of him.
“boom–”
The realm with the concept of burning is rapidly descending with an unstoppable momentum, condensing on Joseph’s body, as if the white flames that are about to burn everything are burning fiercely, spurting out in an instant, but he can’t feel anything anymore.
This knight who is like steel and has never been weak in his life feels that the voice in his throat is blocked by something, and he opens his mouth like a fish, but he can’t utter a complete speech——
“May, Melissa…”
He choked out his child’s name.
He knew how painful it was to burn life force, but Melissa forcibly crossed half the battlefield and resisted the bombardment of Wilde’s god-level field.
Burned with fire, never weakened. Remember https://m. xswang.com
But such a strong and good boy-his kind, lovely, smart, hard-working, naughty, beautiful, brave Melissa was never favored by fate… Until the end, he could not reach his father. in the arms.
“Melissa… I’m sorry.”
Huge sadness overwhelmed Joseph, and the eyes that had not been moistened by tears for many years and thought they had long been dry were filled with tears in an instant.
He took a deep breath, but the surrounding air seemed to have solidified, making it impossible for him to draw half a point.
It was as if all the things that kept him alive had left him along with those ashes, not letting him touch one bit.
In the blurred vision of tears, Melissa’s smile and memory flashed quickly in his mind, and gradually, it seemed to overlap with the face of her equally young and brave mother.
Melissa’s mother was also a glorious knight and a comrade-in-arms who fought side by side with Joseph countless times.
He still remembers… Melissa hated and hated her mother very much when she was a child, because of her strictness and because of her expectations.
“Dahlia…”
Melissa’s mother, who was also a shining knight, died in Joseph’s arms——
[“Joseph, I’m dying.” Dalia smiled and reached out and stroked his cheek, and said softly: “Forgive me, I can only let you take care of our child alone… I’m good, I hope to see Mei Li Sha has become a true knight…”]
At that time, Joseph thought that as long as he was strong enough, he was enough to protect everyone.
So he worked hard to train himself, kept on assignments, wandered between life and death in order to forget the pain in his heart, and put the work of the Mystery Tower first, his temper became worse and worse, but his character became more and more Just straight.
He followed his wife’s will and strictly demanded Melissa, hoping that she could become a glorious knight like her mother.
I never thought that when this day came, Melissa really became what a real glorious knight should look like. She was so dazzling and gentle as her mother.
— just like her mother died in his arms.
“what–”
What’s the use of being strong?
What is a knight?
In the end, he couldn’t keep anything…
Tears fell in big drops and were quickly evaporated by the high temperature. Joseph knelt on the ground, covering his face and crying bitterly in the burning white flame.
Countless times, when the magic sword Candela brought him into an unknown painful hallucination, countless days and nights of tossing and turning, he thought it was hell.
I never imagined that this world is even scarier than hell…
——
“what……”
When Winston heard the sound and turned back again, he was stunned.
In the distance, a blazing flame like an explosion illuminated the battlefield for a moment, but when darkness shrouded again, the beautiful red lotus-like flame had completely disappeared.
Winston’s heart sank, and he lost his voice, completely stunned.
He couldn’t believe that the life of that gifted and intelligent girl ended here so simply, but…
After a long while, he woke up from his sluggishness, grabbed his hair forcefully, looked at the white sea of fire that looked mighty, and fell into a silent collapse.
As an old friend, he knew about Joseph’s past.
Although to outsiders, he is always as dazzling as the sun, but Dalia’s death has always been a dark side hidden in his heart, and he even blamed himself for a while, wishing that he could also die in the mission, that is “undefeated” The Holy Flame is never afraid of the cause of death.
After that, Melissa became his mainstay, allowing him to come back from the brink of death every time.
But… what if Melissa dies?
——
The gush of white flames overwhelmingly pushed the dark tide outward.
Wilde looked down at his old enemy, and when he saw his weak and incompetent appearance, he did not ridicule, but showed an expression of incomparable pity.
The poor guy who can’t let go of his emotional burden is doomed to lose only one way.
As for Wilde himself?
In the past, he would show a soft side for the few disciples he regarded as his own, but what he ushered in was betrayal and death, a knife that stabbed his soft part.
From the day he personally killed the disciple he valued most with a sacrificial knife under the guidance of Boss Lin, he had woken up from that dream of self-deception and cut off all his feelings.
Seeing how ugly Joseph looks now, Wilde just finds it extremely funny.
He grinned and said in a low voice, “Tsk tsk tsk, Joseph… is it painful? Is it uncomfortable? This is the path you chose, this is everything you want to protect, look at what you have protected. ?”
While Wilde tried to break Joseph’s defenses with words, he did not delay this excellent opportunity.
The most urgent task is not to mock the opponent, but to kill Joseph when he collapses——
The moment he opened his mouth, countless dead substances representing the concept of “End” rushed up like a howling mountain and sea.
Wilde waved his tentacles, preparing to end Joseph’s life with his own body.
The dead matter representing “the end” couldn’t kill Joseph quickly.
The so-called “end of life” is actually a rapid acceleration to the end of material life and the end of destruction, but Joseph has reached the level of gods, and every supernatural being of god level has a life of ‘pseudo-eternity’.
The reason for the ‘pseudo-eternity’ is of course because nothing in this world is truly eternal (except for the great Boss Lin), even the god-level only exists for a long time.
Although “The End” can make Joseph disappear, it will take a long time, so Wilde is just using his own rules to weaken the opponent to the greatest extent, so as to facilitate his own action.
The tentacles exuded black dead matter, as if extending from hell, endlessly rushing out of the surface to attack Joseph.
Joseph was still whimpering. Unable to accept his daughter’s death, he was instantly wrapped into a ball by countless tentacles, and the light of the white flame seemed to disappear.
Wilde concentrated his strength, and even his own “end of the world” field shrunk.
Looking at Joseph who hadn’t moved, Wilde raised the corners of his mouth——
“!!!”
Suddenly, a burning pain was transmitted to his brain.
Wilde didn’t even react, just like a person touching hot boiling water, he subconsciously wanted to retract his tentacles——
A torrent like magma flowed out from under the tentacles that wrapped Joseph, and all the places it reached turned into cracked scorched earth.
Wilde opened his eyes wide, watching the tentacles he used to bind Joseph in front of him began to disappear like a fragile piece of paper, as if it was burned out by an invisible flame and continued to spread. He could only quickly break off part of his tentacles. .
Joseph had stopped crying. He picked up his sword and stood up slowly. There was no flame on his body anymore. His hair was completely white, fluttering quietly in the cold wind, and his body was hunched and looked extremely old.
The field called “Burning” has been constructed.
But there is no fire here.
Joseph raised his head and raised his sword, his eyes were dead, but it seemed that something invisible was still burning.
“Wilde – I’m going to kill you!”
