Chapter 297: White Orchid Rain Festival (80)
"Once the evil god has a physical body, the time reversal function of the Infernal Hourglass will not work on her," Time Heer helped Nan Huan up and let her lean on him more comfortably. Although there were bigger troubles waiting for them, this moment of peace still made her happy. "Also, my abilities have not fully recovered, so I cannot fully use the Infernal Hourglass."
Although Shi Huer claimed that her memory was still restricted, Nan Huan clearly felt that she knew at least more than he did.
Although the two dragons have transformed into human form, perhaps because the development of this copy was not as they had initially expected, the situation they least wanted to happen has now appeared before their eyes. Both of them felt a little guilty and did not say anything for the time being, but their eyes looking at Shi Jing Heer were filled with jealousy and envy. They also wanted to hug Nan Huan, even though it was a little inappropriate now.
So he had to use words to attract Nan Huan's attention. "And even if we can use the time-reversing function of the Infinite Hourglass, because of the special nature of the evil god, even if all of us go back a few minutes, we are still no match for the evil god, so things will still develop as before, and she will still be born again and have her own entity."
When the wooden dragon god said this, she looked at the evil god who was so close to her with some disdain. Although his face was exactly the same as Nan Huan's, she still felt a little disgusted, as if the person standing there was not a person, but some garbage that needed to be cleared away.
Nan Huan had no choice but to turn her attention to the two dragons. She had recovered a lot from her injuries and now her mind was back. After a brief association, she immediately realized something. "So this was all planned by you. The Dragon God left you behind during the last Bai Lan Yu Festival and turned you into a wooden sculpture."
From the moment the wood sculpture appeared in the lantern shop, Nan Huan had some doubts. If the wood sculpture and the Dragon God were completely one, why did the wood sculpture suddenly have the power to help them when the other party's consciousness was imprisoned by the evil god? This was a bit unreasonable. But to say that the two had nothing to do with each other, the wood sculpture seemed to be able to feel the existence of the Dragon God, and there seemed to be some subtle connection between the two.
Then she remembered that when she got the wood carving from Old Man Zhang, the system had given a prompt that this wood carving seemed different, and the miracle of a hundred years ago might be staged again.
At that time, Nan Huan didn't understand what this prompt meant, nor did he understand why the system would use two pieces of faith totem fragments as bait to start the league only in this copy. But after combining the two, Nan Huan understood.
"The Dragon God is worried that what happened a hundred years ago will happen again, so he started planning it a hundred years ago. I don't know how he let you be born and deceived the evil god. As long as he waits until today's Bai Lanyu Festival, she will gain enough power to die together with the evil god and prevent the evil god from being born again. When everything is over, I will find that the Dragon God is not completely gone, and you will come as the new Dragon God, and this mission can be perfectly completed. Sacrificing one person will make everyone happy. How wonderful."
That's why the Dragon God looked at her like that just now, and after she had gathered enough strength she needed, she severed the connection and directly peeled out the dragon bone knife to attack the evil god. If it weren't for the unbreakable connection between her and the wood carving, which allowed Nan Huan to feel her, she would probably have disappeared here when she was stabbed back by Man Wugui.
The more Nan Huan thought about it, the angrier he became, and his words became more and more sarcastic. Both the wood sculpture and the dragon god seemed a little helpless about Nan Huan's anger, but at this point, the two did not dare to hide it.
"You are right. You can imagine the relationship between me and her as twins," the Dragon God tried to explain the relationship between the two using words that Nan Huan could understand. "Although we look similar, since she was separated from my body, we have become two independent dragons."
"I'm sorry, it's all my fault." If Dragon God is classified according to human personality, she is the type who is well-behaved and afraid of causing trouble to others because of her behavior. So after hearing Nan Huan's words, she began to apologize firmly. "I didn't expect Man Wugui to be alive after being attacked by you, and even willingly became a part of the evil god. He showed up when I was almost about to deal with the evil god, and caused you to be so badly injured."
She apologized in a serious manner, which reminded Nan Huan of Bei Xi. And when he thought about how much the other person had been through, Nan Huan's heart had already softened beyond words, so how could he be really angry with her? He could only reach out and pat her shoulder, indicating that it was over and she didn't need to apologize anymore.
The woodcarver saw an opportunity and offered his shoulder to Nan Huan, "It's hard for me too. It hurts to remove the woodcarving shell."
She opened her eyes as big as Beixi's and spoke to Nan Huan in a tone that seemed to ask for a touch. How could Nan Huan refuse? He had to be very fair and patted her on the shoulder as well.
Time Heer couldn't stand the two people competing with her for favor, so she tried to bring the topic back to the topic, "Shut up, both of you. We have things to do. How are you going to deal with the evil god later? She just got a physical body, and her strength hasn't fully recovered. She originally wanted to stop you two from coming, but because time has stopped, she will soon find that her wish has not come true. I'm afraid she will be angry and embarrassed."
"And my companions. I want to save them. Do I still have a chance?"
Nanhu has been observing the surrounding environment. At first, she thought that she could use the time-reversal ability of the Infinite Hourglass, so she was very confident in saving Nineteen, Lingyue, and other players in the Guild Alliance. However, Time Hell just rejected her idea, making her feel inexplicably uneasy.
The woodcarver on the side turned serious when he heard Nan Huan's words. He lost his earlier humor. "In principle, the evil god's black swamp will not kill people directly. The evil god relies on the black swamp to absorb all power. If the people who are absorbed in can maintain a certain degree of rationality, they can still be rescued. But if they have been invaded by the evil god and are willing to become part of the evil god and provide for her, then there is nothing we can do. You had another group of people before, but now I can no longer sense their presence..."
It seemed that because Nan Huan had finally made a request, but this request was something she couldn't solve, the target's expression seemed a little annoyed, but when she explained this to Nan Huan, her tone was still very gentle.
"My dragon bone knife can damage the evil god and temporarily cut off her power supply. I think it should be enough to get you out of Bailan City safely."
As the Dragon God spoke, he stretched out his hand from thin air and pulled the silver-white dragon bone knife into her hand. Unlike when she was almost on the verge of death in order to extract the dragon bone just now, now that her strength had been restored, this task became very easy for her, and it did not seem to be dangerous at all.
Seeing Nan Huan's confused and worried look, she even explained, "Don't worry, this was originally my weapon. It's just that it was controlled by the evil god before, so it lacks strength. It will be fine now."
But before Nan Huan could completely relax, the wood sculpture next to him followed suit and took out a dragon bone knife. However, unlike the Dragon God's silver-white dragon bone knife, her dragon bone knife was dark red, and there seemed to be a wisp of dark red air lingering on the knife. When Nan Huan got closer, he found that the air seemed to be alive and was constantly flowing.
"Don't worry, don't worry. This sword of mine is for saving people. As long as there is still a breath left, I can save people." The wood carving explained and waved it. The blood-red air seemed to sense something and lingered around Nan Huan. She instantly felt her body become a lot lighter. "How are you? Are you feeling better?"
It turned out that the injuries on his body were healed in a short time because of the wood carving.
After the wood carving finished its explanation, it waved at the dragon scale paper beside Nan Huan that had been shining for a long time. After absorbing the blood-red air, the dragon scale paper quickly returned to the shape of a flower.
Nan Huan's eyes lit up and he thought this was indeed a good thing.
"Okay, stop showing off," Shiji Heer interrupted the two people's explanation, "Remember, our target later is not the evil god. The main purpose is to buy time, save those people, and make sure Anan leaves Bailan City with them. Don't be stubborn."
Before Nan Huan could figure out the meaning behind Shi Jianhe'er's last words, he saw him looking at him seriously. "No matter what happens in the future, you must put your own safety first. Don't do anything to hurt yourself for anyone, including us. This time, you were lucky that you summoned me at the critical moment. Otherwise, I dare not think about the consequences."
In fact, whenever the gods appeared, they would cherish the time they spent with him, and rarely spoke to him in such a serious tone. Nan Huan could feel the uneasiness in Time Her's heart, but before he could ask his question, he heard her continue, "After the time pause disappears, I should disappear soon, but the birth of the evil god will bring a series of consequences. We may meet soon. I need you to ensure your safety before that, okay?"
Nan Huan realized the meaning behind Shi Ji He'er's words, but there was no time for her to investigate it in detail, so she could only nod solemnly under the other party's expectant gaze.
After a snap of fingers, the still wind finally moved.
The black swamp behind the evil god is like a wave, continuing to invade places that have not been completely occupied and all existences that can provide energy.
Fortunately, by then, Hull had already stopped in mid-air holding Nan Huan. The silver-white dragon bone knife drew a streak in the air. The black swamps did not know what was going on at first, but accidentally touched the invisible Chu River and Han River, and were quickly absorbed.
The black tide seemed to have sensed something and all retreated behind the evil god.
The evil god finally came back to her senses at this time. Her expression was blank for half a second when she saw the two dragons and the time Hel suddenly appearing in front of her. "You guys came just in time and helped her turn danger into safety every time. But I'm already born, do you still think she's unique?"
She did not have any special reaction to the fact that the Dragon God could use the dragon bone knife to cut off her black swamp. It was as if she had some secret weapon in her hand. She suddenly became calm and seemed to want to continue the conversation.
“Don’t think that you can change anything just because you have the same face as hers?” The Dragon God looked at her with disdain. Perhaps because he had been suppressed by the Evil God for such a long time, he was filled with anger. “You know in your heart that she was the one and only from the beginning, not you. Even if you were born again, you can’t change that.”
No one knew what had touched the evil god's heart with these words. The person who had been very calm just now suddenly became very irritable. The black swamp behind her rose and fell with her mood, and suddenly bounced up several feet high, like a raging sea. "This is my original appearance, this is my original appearance..."
Nan Huan was startled by her tone, but he noticed the emphasis in her words. She had looked like this from the beginning, exactly like him. Why? What was her connection with him?
For a while, Heer had been holding Nan Huan in mid-air, watching the farce below from an outsider's perspective. He noticed that Nan Huan's mood seemed to have changed because of his words, and then he stroked Nan Huan's back a few times, "Don't pay attention to her, you are unique, no one can compare to you."
As if he knew what kind of doubts his words would cause Nan Huan, Shi Heer did not even wait for Nan Huan to speak, and he replied very consciously, "Although my memory is not complete, there is no doubt about this."
The evil god was like a human whose emotions were temporarily gone. Within a few breaths, he realized that something was wrong with his emotions and returned to his original appearance. "Look at you poor creatures. You don't even know what my new birth will bring. I will let you and her become my offerings. There will only be one me in this world..."
After she finished speaking, she didn't give the remaining people any chance to react. The several-meter-tall monster behind her pounced down fiercely, as if to bury everyone. The Dragon God jumped into the air first, raised the dragon bone knife to block the surging swamp, and then slashed left and right several times. The black waves seemed to be cut off alive, and the black liquid turned into puddles lying on the ground. In several areas, a human figure could still be barely seen.
Nan Huan had already recognized several players from the same guild alliance. Before she could say anything, Shi Huer had already waved his hand, and a cloud of white sand suddenly gathered on the open ground. In a gust of wind, they became several sand people. They were not afraid of being swallowed by the black swamp, but reached out directly into it and dragged out the players who were trapped in the swamp.
It was obvious that the evil god's attack in the air was not limited to this. While the Dragon God was being dragged by the black swamp and the wood carving and Time Heer were rescuing people, a blue light mark suddenly burst out of her body without any warning and flew directly towards Nan Huan. Even though Time Heer was quick-eyed and quick-handed, and quickly changed position with Nan Huan, the blue light mark seemed to be able to locate Nan Huan directly. It paused for a moment and attacked Nan Huan again.
What's worse is that at this moment, Time Heer felt that she was about to disappear. She only had time to hand Nan Huan to the wood carving before she turned back into the unconscious Bei Xi and fell to the ground.
Nan Huan was caught off guard by Shi Huer's sudden disappearance. In the past, he would always be able to sense it and even say goodbye to him calmly, but this time he seemed extremely hasty, as if the system had done something to get rid of him.
After the wood carving saved a few people, it had to stop temporarily to protect Nan Huan's safety. However, the blue mark kept chasing them, and seeing that they could not escape, the wood carving had to use its arms to block Nan Huan.
Nan Huan recognized that it was the mark of the evil god, and without caring about anything else, he cut his palm and pressed it directly on the wound of the wood sculpture. However, the evil god seemed to have been waiting for this moment since just now. After glancing at Nan Huan's actions, a strange smile unconsciously appeared at the corner of his mouth.
The mark of the evil god is different from before when she didn’t have a physical body. This was Nan Huan’s first feeling.
Because she clearly felt that the evil god's mark was no longer afraid of her blood. In fact, because it felt her blood, it had emerged from the scratched skin of the wood sculpture, stuck to her wound, and disappeared into her body.
The wood sculpture was startled. She didn't expect that the evil god had other tricks. She couldn't care less and could only use her dark red blood to try to drive out the things in Nan Huan's body.
But after trying a few times, she found that her healing ability didn't work on Nan Huan at this time. What's worse, Nan Huan's body had begun to shake uncontrollably, as if something was flowing inside his body.
In fact, the moment the blue mark entered his body, the first thing Nan Huan felt was a state of incomparable harmony.
Yes, it was a fit, but it was not the blue mark that fit with his body, but the black energy flowing in his body. For a moment, Nan Huan seemed to be able to see through his skin and see how his internal organs were functioning.
After leaving behind their external existence, those flesh and bloody organs all turned into wisps of black gas, running step by step inside her body, making up the self that now appears in front of everyone, making up her flesh and blood, and becoming her cells, allowing her to face every breath and every operation in her body in the form of a human being.
But the evil god now seemed to have made her see through her own nature. She was not a normal human being. The blood that the black air liked to suck seemed to have never existed. The black air was naturally attracted to her and willingly became a part of him, hiding in her body and accompanying her in this large-scale role-playing game.
But when the last piece of fig leaf was torn off, only the naked facts were left. Faced with this, she couldn't help but raise questions from the bottom of her soul.
Am I a human or a monster?
