[Wait a minute, is the fish this time authentic? What if it's fake? ]
【Yes】
【Inspect the goods first】
【Let me touch it】
[I'll touch it too]
【Sweet】
[Very sweet]
[Yes, real fish]
Tentacles swarmed out, and in the name of distinguishing the real from the fake, they entangled themselves on the killer whale's smooth skin and crawled around.
Fighting? It's not suitable for these delicate creatures. Fighting with powerful spiritual entities is very tiring. Fortunately, the mobile sugar man came by himself.
Eating a big fish can restore blood, heal wounds, and taste sweet. The tentacles sigh with pleasure and squeeze out others to grab a good position.
The big fish in battle are completely different from usual ones.
A ruthless, brutal, and thug. His fans are sharp and his muscles are as hard as iron.
The giant tail fin swung fiercely and hit the golden tree. Countless golden branches broke and fell to the ground with a clanging sound.
And the tentacles? In our impression, they are cute, soft, and only whimpering, like two fish.
[Wow, it's sweeter than usual]
[From now on, I will only suck fish during battles]
[Please make way, I have no room left]
[There are too many people, squeeze two down]
The huge scarlet egg occupied almost the entire bottom of the cave. When Ni Ji stepped on it, it was like stepping on a large piece of land with crisscrossing blood vessels and undulating and floating.
He stepped on the squirming soft flesh, grabbed the handle of the knife and twisted it violently, then pulled out the long knife.
A large amount of blood gushed out from the gaping wound, staining Ni Ji's entire body.
The whole cave was filled with a strange cry, sometimes it sounded like a man, sometimes it sounded like a woman.
It's like a monster that wants to imitate humans, but can't imitate them well. It's lurking in the darkness and crying like a human.
As the cries rang out, mask-like faces rose from the blood-red earth.
Their bodies are long and thin, made up of countless sticky blood vessels, connected to the red land beneath their feet.
One by one, scarlet monsters with miserable faces stood up from the huge eggs and rushed towards Ni Ji.
"It hurts. It hurts so much. It hurts so much."
"It's so painful. It's so painful."
"Let me go, please, let me go"
"Let me die, let me die"
The sound of weeping and ghostly cries intertwined and echoed in the scarlet cave. The graveyards, ghost mounds, and the netherworld and purgatory were no exception.
Those thin and soft bodies were cut by Ni Ji's sharp blade, spurting out a lot of blood. The red blood poured down like a blanket, staining Ni Ji's body and face.
"What disgusting blood, isn't it? Not great, get out of here quickly." Ni Ji's knife handle said this in the chaos.
It was too late. Those strange monsters quickly submerged the warrior. Ni Ji, whose body was covered in blood, seemed to be dazed. He was covered motionlessly by those blood-red monsters and fell into that scarlet and sticky hell.
The whale under Lin Yuan shook a little, and its huge body shrank a circle. Then it shook again, and shrank a circle again.
Its shape began to become blurred, and it staggered down from the air. Just after it put Lin Yuan on the ground, its black back and white belly flashed twice, and then disappeared with a very reluctant look.
【Ah, where are the fish? 】
[How big is my fish?]
The tentacles scattered in confusion.
"Hmph, a sentinel."
Lin Yuan heard the sound of the Scarlet Egg.
"Do you think you can fight me with just a sentinel?"
The earth covered with red blood vessels made a humming sound. In the middle - where Ni Ji disappeared, a large hill-like mass rose up.
Those blood vessels overlapped and covered it, slowly wriggling, as if they wanted to completely dissolve and digest the sentinels wrapped in them.
"In front of me, guides may be able to hold on a little, but sentinels are the most useless. Although there are sentinels with strong mental strength, they are impulsive and cannot withstand torture. At most, they can only serve as food. Hehehe."
The monster's voice initially sounded like a painful cry, but then he started laughing, like a moody toddler.
“You can take them to the top of happiness and then immediately send them into the depths of misery, back and forth a few times — and then, boom, they collapse.”
It imitated a very lifelike onomatopoeia in its speech, like a human clapping his hands.
"No matter how powerful a warrior is, it's useless. He can't stand a few rounds. Hehehe."
"He won't? He won't." Lin Yuan suddenly interrupted it.
"He will!" The voice sounded like a negative child.
"He won't," Lin Yuan said again. "He's a very strong man. He'll get rid of you in a moment. He'll cut through your evil flesh and come back to me."
At some point, a faint bright moon appeared above the cave.
The tentacles behind Lin Yuan surged, and her mental image invaded here, faintly overlapping with this bloody cave.
The bright moonlight shone down, and the sad waiting sounds coming from all directions in the cave became much quieter.
Those distorted human faces became quiet, floating in the blood bubbles, staring blankly at the blurry moon above the cave.
This place is no longer the home ground of the Scarlet Egg alone. Lin Yuan's mental power penetrated in with difficulty.
"You actually trust a sentinel? That kind of beast is just brute force." The monster's voice argued impatiently, the voice was sharp and distorted.
"You may not know that Sentinels and Guides are completely different creatures. It doesn't matter, hehe, I will show you. I can show you right away."
"Let me show you the sentry just now. He looked like an animal, just as ugly as ever."
"It actually hurt me with a knife. It must be punished as it deserves."
"I'm going to make him perform in front of you, make him cry and beg, make him twist in the dirtiest places. Make him look ugly and embarrassed. Because of you, he won't even have the chance to beg for mercy."
"Hehe, you still want to help him? You are still so immature. How long can you sustain this kind of exhaustion?"
"It's okay. In the end, I will let you come together and merge into my body together."
Lin Yuan didn't say anything. The hazy moon above the cave became brighter and clearer.
The bright moon hung high in the sky, shining brightly. The moonlight broke through the darkness and shone on the bulging pile of flesh and blood, almost penetrating the dirty and bloody red pipe walls and shining deep into the ground.
It guides the direction and comforts the souls trapped in the illusion.
Sweat slid down Lin Yuan's cheeks and dripped onto the ground.
But her eyes were firm. She was waiting, believing that her comrades could get out of the predicament and return to the battlefield.
That hill covered with blood vessels began to swell, and the tumor bulged high on the left and right.
breakthrough!
A huge hole opened up in the undulating mountain of flesh, and a crescent-shaped blade shone out from it.
Flesh and membranes were splattered everywhere. A bloody man, holding a long knife, stretched out his hand to pry open the crack, and stepped out a foot.
A huge cry could be heard from all directions of the cave.
A tentacle emerged from the ground, trying to pat the sentry whose body and face were covered in blood.
Ni Ji subconsciously turned his head away and avoided its touch.
He supported himself on the ground with the tip of the knife, bent down, turned his head and spit out some gastric juice, and finally stood up slowly.
The knife handle was covered in blood and was too slippery to hold. The sentry took off his shirt, wrapped his arms around the hand holding the knife, and tied the knife handle and the palm together tightly.
The blade cut deep bloody marks on the body.
The enchanting sword light appeared.
Ni Ji's eyes were bloodshot, filled with murderous intent and deep hatred. He raised his long sword and chopped at the squirming ground beneath him.
A crazed murderer, a mad killer.
The red knife was stained with blood, the bloody blade was rolling, and the furious warrior was fighting with the blood-red giant egg under him.
During the entire process, he did not even look at Lin Yuan.
No, I don't want to look, but I dare not look.
Lin Yuan caught Ni Ji's intense outward emotions at the moment: anger, shame, gritting of teeth, and an exploding hatred that spread all over his body.
Lin Yuan had seen the hatred in Ni Ji's heart before. That deep hatred was buried deep in the sea, suppressed and deep, slowly plotting revenge.
She had never seen Ni Ji so furious before. He didn't care about anything and rushed towards the enemy like a madman.
They were facing a powerful enemy with a lifespan of hundreds of years, and his mental control ability was several times stronger than Lin Yuan's.
When Lin Yuan himself was trapped in the environment it created, he would even be confused.
She didn't know what kind of mental illusion Ni Ji encountered when he was captured by the scarlet egg.
What could make a calm and self-possessed sentry like Ni Ji so angry?
I think it must be related to me. That monster used Ni Ji to seduce me. Of course, it is also possible that he used his own appearance to torture Ni Ji.
He doesn't even dare to look at himself now.
Even the tentacles that he had always liked, he subconsciously avoided.
【Angry】Tentacle? Said.
Lin Yuan also felt that he was angry.
The battle entered a white-hot stage.
The scarlet eggs at the bottom of the cave almost covered the entire earth, but the crazy Ni Ji was also extremely terrifying. He did not hesitate to hurt himself and fed the knife with countless blood from his own body.
The long huge blade turned the entire red land upside down.
The shrill cry was resounding.
Broken blood vessels, tumors, and dirty blood all over the ground.
This place has almost become a pool of blood soaked in gore.
The crying became louder and louder, becoming piercing and sharp, covering Lin Yuan's bright moon that had barely entered this world.
A blood-red eye opened in the sky, shedding long tears of blood.
Countless bloody men wearing masks stood up and rushed towards the sentry.
The golden tree stained with blood began to move and attack Lin Yuan.
Ni Ji was surrounded in a sea of scarlet. The black silhouette of the sentry was almost submerged, with only the red knife light appearing from time to time.
Lin Yuan ran on the slippery ground, dodging the golden tree that was chasing him with blood all over its body.
The killer whale appeared several times, slapping away the sea of sharp spears and then disappearing into the air.
It emerged after another struggle, and dissipated again in a few moments.
Everyone has reached their limit.
A life-and-death battle, with lives hanging in the balance several times.
Lin Yuan knew that the more difficult and dangerous it was, the closer victory was. The enemy was at the end of its strength and was fighting a last-ditch battle.
I was covered in wounds, and the enemy was also riddled with wounds and on the verge of death.
Just a little more, just a little longer.
She felt a sharp pain in her head and had convulsions. The sequelae of overusing her mental power began to appear.
Her body was in pain, too. She was wounded several times by the golden spear that flew through the air. She bled a lot, her feet slipped, and she could hardly run.
She is a guide with a strong mental strength and a body that is not very suitable for fighting.
The other party knew this better than she did. All the attacks were aimed at her body.
Ni Ji's killer whale appeared and disappeared. The tentacles were all covered in wounds, and many of them no longer had the strength to appear in their physical form.
Just hold on a little longer, Lin Yuan thought, it will only take a little while.
Ni Ji fell down several times, then stood up again with his long knife in his hand. He wiped his eyes which were covered with blood.
The bright moon in the sky disappeared at some point, leaving only a scarlet eye staring at him.
He had lost too much blood and felt a little bit unable to stand.
Just a little bit more, he thought.
He saw a strange little creature crawling out from the bloody ground.
A dozen arms, three heads, and eyes all over the body, it looks like a strange embryo that has not yet fully developed.
That? small strange creature? crawled out from the shattered flesh and blood on the ground, crawling away at an incredibly agile speed.
This is the enemy's final form. Kill it and it's over. Ni Ji's intuition from hundreds of battlefield experiences told him this.
If it runs away, the fierce battle will continue endlessly.
Ni Ji dragged his almost immobile body forward to chase the monster. The monster was crawling very fast, and his legs felt as heavy as blocks of lead.
He hadn't encountered such a tough battle for a long time.
Just one more step, the last one.
Several tentacles suddenly emerged from the ground and entangled the vague blood-red embryo.
The tentacles were not spiritual entities suitable for fighting and were very delicate, but they clung to the bloody monster tightly, even though they were bitten several times in an instant.
Ni Ji's knife arrived the next moment. The red long knife avoided the tentacles and nailed the bloody egg that was wriggling and struggling.
Without the supply of blood, the long sword has become very thin.
The tip of the knife avoided all tentacles and the long blade pierced into the body of the monster.
It's over.
Ni Ji saw the other side of the battlefield through the thin blade.
Almost like in slow motion, Lin Yuan's body fell to the slippery blood-red ground.
A long branch of the golden tree pierced her soft abdomen.
She might have been able to get out of the way, but she was distracted and had to control the tentacles.
That's what the battlefield is like.
Sometimes you think you will never die and that you can always protect whoever you want to protect.
But in reality, no one knows where the god of death will come next.
Almost every life, whether it is the bright moon that you treasure or the insignificant weeds, is equal in the face of death.
They may suddenly disappear before your eyes.
Everything happened unexpectedly.
Lin Yuan fell down like that. She lay on the ground, spitting out a little blood, looking at the golden tree in front of her.
That was the person she wanted to take away.
She failed; she didn't accomplish what she wanted to do.
Xunhua, wearing a golden mask, stared at her coldly. The red bloodstains covered his golden mask, covering up his remaining humanity.
The masked man had a cold, numb and empty look, like a puppet controlled by ghosts.
The sharp golden branch slowly pulled out from Lin Yuan's abdomen and stabbed towards Lin Yuan again.
The blood-stained tip pressed against Lin Yuan's chest, right on the small stone pendant.
The tip of the gun solidified there.
A drop of golden tear fell and landed on the inconspicuous heart-shaped stone, turning it into a golden heart.
He remained motionless in the pose in which he was about to assassinate Lin Yuan. The dazzling golden tree began to wither, starting from its branches and leaves, and then from its roots. The huge tree slowly disintegrated, and the swaying dead branches fell into the sticky blood on the ground.
Ni Ji ran towards Lin Yuan who was lying on the ground.
The embryo that hadn't died completely started to try to escape. It quietly climbed up with the last few blood vessels and slowly pulled out Ni Ji's knife.
Ni Ji didn't even turn his head, and the blood-red knife light chopped out densely, accurately and neatly, filled with overwhelming murderous aura.
Pieces of flesh covered in blood fell like rain. The blood vessels and flesh were cut into extremely small pieces. They shook on the ground for a moment, and finally stopped moving completely.
Ni Ji didn't need to go through so much trouble, it was just a small embryo.
But he couldn't control himself. There was a huge panic in his heart. If he didn't do this, he would almost go crazy immediately.
Ni Ji ran forward on the sticky pieces of meat on the ground. He was a sentry known for his speed.
But at that moment, he hated himself for running so slowly.
The speed of running was almost like that of a snail, so that the short distance seemed extremely long and the time taken was so long that it was suffocating.
Lin Yuan was lying there, lying on the bloody ground, lying on the golden branches and leaves that had fallen all over the ground.
Red blood flowed out from Lin Yuan's back, mixed with the cold and dazzling metal, and expanded rapidly.
The withered golden leaves in the sky turned into pale ashes and fluttered down like white snow.
Lin Yuan closed his eyes, the expression on his face was the same as usual, calm and peaceful, as if he didn't care about what was going to happen next.
Even if that thing means the disappearance of one's own life.
Isn't death a very common thing?
Since so many people here have died, then of course I could die at any time if I enter this contaminated area.
This is something Lin Yuan knew very early on.
But it seemed that she was not as carefree as she had imagined. She found that she actually had a lot of things that she couldn't let go of.
What should I do with the crabs at home?
Really want to see Xiaoniao and the others again.
It's a pity not to finish eating all the candies I stored away.
Still want to ask Ni Ji what he just encountered in the illusion?
Ni Ji came to her side and poured out all the medicines he had with him.
He bit open the dressing bag and used a bunch of hemostatic drugs and gauze to block the hole in Lin Yuan's abdomen. The bright red color spread on the snow-white gauze, and blood quickly seeped out and flowed out along his fingertips.
Ni Ji is a seasoned sentinel who can accurately judge every fatal injury.
Such a farewell? Even a guide or a lower-level sentinel could not save him.
A cold voice in his head said that she was beyond help and had only a few minutes left to live.
But he couldn't control himself. He pressed the wound tightly, as if by doing so, the blood would stop flowing and death would be prevented.
He picked up Lin Yuan from the ground and held her in his arms.
The guide's shoulders are thinner than they appear. It's hard to imagine that such a weak body has such a strong soul.
She was the first to get the key and opened the escape door for everyone.
But she did not leave. She wanted to destroy this dirty and ugly world.
She did it. The price was her own life.
Lin Yuan coughed, and red blood spurted out from the corner of her mouth.
"It hurts so much." She looked at Ni Ji and said, "Why? It hurts so much."
Her voice was soft, as if she had no strength and was about to fall asleep soon.
Ni Ji's shoulders began to tremble. He knew that he was powerless and there was no way he could do anything. Everything he had learned and knew was useless at this moment. The only thing he could do was to hold the guide in his arms tighter.
He actually saw a lot of such things.
Injury, death, separation?
He had seen countless of his best friends die on the battlefield, a scene that was familiar to every soldier who had experienced many years of fighting.
You should be used to it. You can bear it. It's no big deal. Every warrior has experienced it.
No matter how much you cherish it or how reluctant you are to let it go, there is nothing you can do. No matter how painful your heart is, even if it’s like a knife digging your heart open, it cannot prevent death.
This is the last person next to me, he thought.
The last person you cherish is about to be taken away.
And? He would be left behind, alive.
From now on, there will never be moonlight on the sea again. He will be left in a world of darkness. No one will ever touch his hair and give him a good night's sleep again.
Lin Yuan felt cold water drops falling on his cheeks.
She lay in Ni Ji's arms. She had never seen this sentry with such a ferocious expression. He seemed very weak, crying in his heart, tears falling silently on his face.
"Don't cry. I don't want to see you cry like this." Lin Yuan laughed. For some unknown reason, he wanted to make a joke at this time.
"As for me, I just saw you crying in a fantasy world."
She saw the sentry bite his lip and broke it.
Lin Yuan wanted to make fun of him, but felt it was inappropriate, so he had to talk to him, "After you go back, you can find another guide. The ones we met at the banquet last time are all my friends, very gentle, and better at mental grooming than me..."
Lin Yuan didn't know why he suddenly became so talkative.
But this is the last time I will be able to speak. After death, I will sleep forever, so it won't matter if I say a few more words now.
But fatigue surged into her heart, her eyelids began to feel heavy, and she felt that she needed a rest.
