Chapter 276: White Orchid Rain Festival (Fifty-nine)
President Alice used the rabbit hole to teleport herself and Beixi from this location to the eldest lady's side, which was equivalent to putting herself in the center of danger from a completely safe place.
Of course, President Alice also understood what this choice represented. "What is there to thank me for? If it weren't for you, I would have died countless times in Fengmen Ridge."
After she finished speaking, looking at the president's hesitant face, she simply waved her hand and drew a rabbit hole in the air, stopping the president from continuing to speak.
The others wanted to follow, but were stopped by an air arrow shot from the middle of the sky. "If I can't solve this, you still have to find a way to get out of here."
After giving some instructions to the others on the communication channel, President I and President Alice disappeared into the rabbit hole.
On the other side, Nan Huan could no longer control her balance. Her snow-white wings were stained with large patches of blood. She could not keep her balance, and her eyes were blocked by the dense blood mist. Just as she was trying to find a place to land far away from Bei Xi and the others, a hand in the air forcefully grabbed her body and pressed her into his arms.
The familiar aura around Bei Xi made Nan Huan realize who was holding her at the first moment. Although the wounds on her body made her unable to think about anything, she still struggled instinctively, trying to get out of Bei Xi's arms. Her decreasing health made her realize that this backlash was like a triggered death rule, inevitable and there was no chance of survival.
But even if she was not injured, she was no match for Bei Xi, not to mention that now she could not keep her balance and her body was full of holes.
Bei Xi held her tightly in his arms and shot out several air arrows in succession. The sky seemed to be setting off huge fireworks, with flames and roars constantly erupting. With such large-scale damage, any living creature with a trace of breath around would have been blown to pieces.
But the blood mist was not an ordinary thing. Although it was affected by the explosion, after the thick smoke, the tiny molecules regrouped together and continued to attack their targets.
This was what Bei Xi had anticipated before, but she didn't want to just watch it all happen and do nothing, so it would be good to delay it for a while.
Some tiny blood mist molecules in the firelight seemed to sense the sudden change in the external environment and directly accelerated their speed, continuing to burst towards Nan Huan like a bullet. Bei Xi did not move. The moment he turned around, he pressed Nan Huan into his arms.
Even if she couldn't change the current situation, she would never allow Nan Huan to be hurt in front of her.
Seeing this, President Alice also stepped forward to block the bullets from another direction to protect the young lady.
Both of them were ready to sacrifice, but unexpectedly, the imagined pain did not come. The blood mist like bullets rushed into the bodies of the two, but did not cause any harm, and then passed through in an instant, and finally fell on Nan Huan.
"ah……"
There were several more holes on the opponent's body in an instant, and Nan Huan couldn't help but make a sound, but at the same time, she was relieved that the blood mist could not cause any harm to Bei Xi and others.
Bei Xi's face turned ugly in an instant. She took out medicine from the control panel to heal Nan Huan's injuries, and at the same time used the flying prop to carry Nan Huan to circle in the air.
Realizing that blocking was not working, he had to make sure the opponent couldn't catch up with Nan Huan. This was the only solution.
"Don't waste... your energy," Nan Huan said with some effort. She felt that the medicine Bei Xi gave her didn't work very well. The burning sensation on her wound was still very strong. She instinctively pulled Bei Xi's sleeve and said, "You have to take them... out of here."
Nan Huan's premonitions were usually very accurate. Just as she felt pain when the first drop of blood mist penetrated her body, she knew that she would most likely not be able to avoid the backlash. No matter how unwilling she was, she could only put her focus on Bei Xi. Based on her understanding of her, it would definitely not be good news if she left in this way.
"Stop talking. If anything happens to you, I will never leave. We agreed before..."
Bei Xi interrupted her nonsense directly, or rather, she didn't want to listen to her continue talking. But before she could finish her words, she felt Nan Huan holding her hand very tightly.
"No, I want you to promise me that you will take them away from here, find the secret of the game, figure out everything, and take me home. I want to go home."
She reiterated it twice, as if she was worried that Bei Xi would not take these two words to heart, and it seemed that only such emphasis could make her let go of her stubbornness.
Bei Xihui held her hand and hugged her tighter, but didn't say anything.
Although she could not see the rapidly declining health value on Nanhuan's control panel, she could feel that the person in her arms was getting colder and colder. The medicine he had taken was not working, the wounds on his body were not healing, and the area of blood loss was getting larger and larger.
Bei Xi felt her palms were cold. She rarely felt so confused. It was completely different from the many times she had been on the verge of life and death before, because she really felt scared.
After a while, she lowered her voice, "Where are you? Every time I get here, you jump out. Where are you? Where are you?"
She didn't question Nan Huan, but looked at a certain place in the void with anger. After getting no response, she looked at Nan Huan in her arms, "Isn't the number above my head unlocked yet? Why doesn't it work this time? Why?"
Although she had such a cold face, Nan Huan saw an expression of great pain in her eyes. Bei Xi, who was so arrogant and so dismissive, could also lose her mind sometimes. Nan Huan was so distressed that he didn't know what to do.
The blood mist behind him pursued him relentlessly, and he was hit several times in succession. Nan Huan's reaction became smaller and smaller, and the burning sensation became more and more intense, but his consciousness was becoming more and more blurred. He just raised his head and used his eyes to trace Bei Xi's facial features over and over again, and kept comforting the other party, "Don't be afraid, it's okay..."
【bite--
Warning, warning, the player's health is decreasing rapidly. Once the health reaches zero, the player will be killed by the game. 】
Amid the sharp explosion of the system, Nan Huan actually heard a hint of urgency.
In the blood-red light, Nan Huan's vision gradually blurred. The whistling wind in his ears and Bei Xi's familiar embrace gradually disappeared. Instead, the burning sensation in his body became more and more obvious.
She kept reminding herself not to fall asleep. Beixi had not agreed to her request yet, and she couldn't just leave Beixi here. But when Nan Huan opened her eyes with difficulty, she found that she seemed to no longer be in mid-air.
It was pitch dark here, and there was darkness in front of her. There was no attacking blood mist, and no familiar embrace of Bei Xi. She didn't even know why she suddenly appeared here, or whether everything in front of her was real or just her imagination.
The only thing she could feel now was her own body. She could feel her life slipping away bit by bit. Even though her body was already riddled with holes, the black energy condensed in her body, for some reason, stayed there and refused to dissipate.
The pure black scene in front of him seemed to change with his own thoughts. Nan Huan vaguely felt as if he had come to a place full of black air. He didn't know whether the black air liked him or for other reasons, but as soon as he appeared, they could not wait to rush up.
"Why don't you just destroy these evil spirits and resentment?" A familiar voice came from the void. It was Bei Xi's voice, but Nan Huan couldn't find the source of the voice. "Why choose such a difficult path of purification and taming?"
Bei Xi's voice was very ethereal. She asked this question very seriously, but with confusion and ignorance.
Nan Huan didn't quite understand what she meant, but he felt that the words didn't seem to be directed at him.
Nan Huan felt that his fingers seemed to be bitten by the black air, and bright red blood gushed out. At the same time, another more familiar voice came from the void.
“Because they believe in me.”
These words floated in the void with great firmness and a certain stubbornness. Nan Huan recognized that it was his own voice, but he had no impression of it at all.
But before Nan Huan could think about it, a sudden change occurred. The black energy, which was originally non-aggressive, suddenly became extremely violent and entangled around his body without any explanation. At the same time, Nan Huan felt that his body seemed restless, as if something was about to be born.
Click——
The void in front of her eyes was like a mirror, shattered, and the strange feelings on her body disappeared in an instant. Instead, she heard Bei Xi's voice again.
"I'm sorry, I didn't stop her." Her voice was weak, as if she was forcing herself to talk to herself, but her tone was very firm, "I will also be torn into pieces, but no matter where I am, I will always only believe in you."
Nan Huan heard the uneasiness and reluctance in her words, and instinctively wanted to reach out and grab her, but all she felt was endless emptiness; she couldn't grab anything.
In just a moment, she felt as if a kiss was gently falling on her forehead, and at the same time something was injected into her body.
She stretched out her five fingers with great effort, trying to grab Bei Xi and not let him leave. She instinctively felt that there was something hidden behind his words that she didn't know. She wanted to ask clearly, but everything around her was gradually disappearing.
Nan Huan had lost consciousness. Bei Xi brought her to land on a roof. The blood mist followed closely, but Nan Huan had no reaction.
She hugged the other person quietly, her forehead against his, her face cold and expressionless, no one knew what she was thinking.
At this time, the large army had surrounded them. Everyone didn't know what to say when they saw the young lady's appearance. They tried all the props, but they couldn't resist the attack of the blood mist. They also tried all the flying props, but they couldn't escape the pursuit of the blood mist. Even all the potions were given to the young lady, but there was no reaction at all.
There is nothing more painful than watching the life of a living person disappear bit by bit in front of you.
"Chairman Yi, I know the current situation..." The Workers' Guild President had not taken his eyes off Man Wugui since the beginning. Now, because he saw some actions of the other party, he had to interrupt the possible final farewell between Chairman Yi and the eldest lady. "Anyway, I don't think it's time to give up now. Man Wugui has taken action, and there are also movements at the High Priest's Mansion."
Bei Xi didn't know if she was touched by the other party's words, or maybe it was because she was holding on to the last bit of hope, or maybe it was because she didn't want to let the culprit Man Wugui have an easy time, she finally regained some rationality.
Looking in the direction pointed by the president of the Workers' Guild, they saw Man Wugui standing on a roof of the High Priest's Mansion. Behind him was a stream of black gas sweeping down from the sky, rushing into a secluded room in the High Priest's Mansion with great force. Man Wugui stood there, staring in their direction cautiously.
"I remember that Miss can absorb the black energy, right?"
The president of the workers' guild didn't know that the eldest lady's health was related to the absorption of the black air, but Man Wugui's alert posture made her quickly realize that the other party was afraid that they would disturb her.
Generally speaking, the more afraid the other party is, the more likely they are to win.
Bei Xi reacted quickly. Everything that happened tonight was planned in advance by Man Wugui. She took advantage of the past between herself and Nan Huan, which she was unaware of, to make Nan Huan hurt those dry bones, which then triggered the backlash. This thing was equivalent to the death rule of the game, which was an inevitable existence for any props or individuals. It was more cost-effective to let her deal with Nan Huan than to do it herself.
But why did she summon the black air again now? Given that she probably knew that Nan Huan could increase his health by absorbing the black air, Bei Xi had to suspect what kind of conspiracy this was.
But after a moment, she looked at the origin and destination of the black air and seemed to have understood something.
"I'm going to take Anan there. This is the last chance for those black spirits."
Bei Xi picked up Nan Huan and wanted to explain to the players behind her, but before she could finish her words, several people jumped to the front.
"We will help you clear the way, you just need to take the young lady to the nearest place."
President Barbie didn't say anything more and understood what the president meant almost instantly. If this was the last chance, then she must give it a try.
Man Wugui understood their intention almost instantly. This time she finally stopped pretending to be indifferent and casually flipped her hand, and a fan appeared in her hand. At the moment the fan flapped, an invisible wave appeared in the air, pushing President Alice and President Hongfen, who were leading the way, back.
And the wave continued to expand, and wherever it passed, houses collapsed and trees fell.
Until Bei Xi shot an air arrow that broke the waveform and prevented them from retreating.
At this point, when Man Wugui took action, everyone understood that hope lay in the black energy behind her. Although they did not quite understand why the other party, knowing that the black energy was useful to the young lady, still gathered so much black energy at this time, the fact that they strongly opposed their behavior had already shown to some extent that they did have a glimmer of hope.
