Vichy is in a coma, Nia is dying, and Fili is seriously injured.

Among these three people, Vichy is the one who should be abandoned the most. If she died, Ash would not shed a tear for her - if he did, he would definitely call himself an idiot - but for the reason why Ash would not kill her, if she died, she would be reborn from the soul box, return to reality, and may even break free from the ruby ​​chains.

She is like the villain in an old-fashioned fantasy novel who can only be sealed. Her death will only bring great disaster to the future. Binding her to Ash is equivalent to sacrificing Ash for the benefit of the whole world.

Moreover, even Ash had to admit that Vichy was a treasure girl. Her knowledge, her magic realm, and even her herself were of great value. If Ash wanted to go further on the path of a magician, there was no better guide than Vichy.

Not to mention that Vichy has saved them from danger time and time again. That's right, she only had to save them because of the constraints of the ruby ​​chains. If there were no chains, she would have been considering the overall situation by not backstabbing Ash immediately.

She is indeed a devil despised by the whole world, a sinister and evil venomous snake, and a cruel and violent python, but at this moment she is also a teammate fighting side by side with Ash.

Fili is an indispensable key figure. If they lose the demon Fili, Ash and his group of legends will be no different from mortals. They will not be able to participate in angel hunting, nor can they compete with other teams.

And unlike Vichy, Fili was dragged into this war that did not belong to her by Ash. Ash promised to protect her safety, and Ash should be responsible for her.

But she asked for nothing, questioned nothing, she did whatever Ash said, gave Ash whatever he wanted, and even if the city was in chaos she would rush over immediately, no matter how badly injured she was, she would not make a sound, and would follow Ash closely like a tail. She was an ordinary student a month ago... How could Ash watch her die?

So when the floor collapsed, Ash didn't think at all and just threw the sword in his hand over!

clang!

The sword stuck straight into the ground in front of Fili. When the reinforced concrete fell down, a warm yellow barrier was erected high to protect her and Vichy firmly inside.

Miracle Sword Barrier.

Fili looked up in surprise, but only saw a figure with wings spread out in the gap between the collapsing sand, gravel and steel bars.

It's like an angel going to hell alone.

…

…

black.

Very dark.

I can't see anything.

My head felt so sick that I wanted to vomit, and there was no part of my body that didn't hurt.

Nia coughed violently several times, and after coughing up a mouthful of blood foam, she regained some of her thinking ability. At this time, she found that the scene in front of her was not pure black, and the golden holy grail was still around her, but the light emitted by the golden holy grail could not illuminate any tangible objects, like an illusion that did not belong to this world.

In addition to her own golden chalice, she saw another floating golden chalice.

"Are you awake? You were unconscious for almost a minute."

Ash's voice sounded from behind, so close that it seemed to be touching her hair. Nia then noticed that she was not lying on the gravel, but her hips and back were leaning against another body, even her legs were curled up, and her whole body was hiding in someone's arms.

Click!

When Nia tried to leave, she heard a very ominous sound of falling rubble. Ash didn't stop her, but just said softly, "Don't move. We are lucky. We happened to get into the angle between a large piece of floor debris and the wall. Although we are buried at the bottom, there are large gaps in the rocks, and air can get in. If we move, it will cause a second collapse, and then it will be troublesome."

"I'm sorry if you find this kind of physical contact uncomfortable."

Nia had understood that the situation was urgent, but she became irritated again after hearing what Ash said: "I'm sorry too. After all, I'm not your maid, nor your silly girl, so I don't feel comfortable with your physical contact. Can you please not point your face at my hair? Your breath makes me feel sick."

Ash wasn't angry and didn't say anything, he just turned his head away silently.

After taking a few deep breaths, Nia gradually regained her sanity and asked, "Where are they?"

"They're fine." Ash said, "I used a miracle to protect them. The miracle is still working. They shouldn't be hurt."

Nia reached out and touched her still bleeding forehead, and said calmly: "Of course, they are the ones you care about, you must protect them first... Then why are you here? Did you take the wrong road?"

"I thought I had a way to protect you." Ash said with a wry smile, "But after I flew over and picked you up, I passed out from the pain and was unable to hold up the sanctuary in time."

Ash has only two ways to protect people: the miracle "Sword Barrier" and the Sanctuary. His original plan was perfect, first using the Sword Barrier to protect Fili and Vichy, and then using the Sanctuary to protect him and Nia, but unfortunately...

At this time, Nia also came back to her senses. She vaguely remembered seeing Ash spread his golden and silver wings and fly over to pick her up... She saw it! ?

"Aren't you supposed to be unable to use your super powers in front of someone 'not special' like me?"

"yes."

"But I just saw your wings." Nia murmured, "Gold and silver, you look like an angel."

"Yeah." Ash said softly, "You saw it."

"What will happen if I see it?"

"It's nothing, it doesn't have much impact."

"What will happen? Don't give me the cold shoulder!"

Shh.

Ash motioned for Nia to lower her voice, and then they heard a faint growl and rustling sounds.

"The Six Nations Army knows we are not dead yet, and they will dig us out." Ash said, "But before that, we can rest for a while. The bullets should not be able to get in."

"So, what will happen?" Nia clutched Ash's clothes tightly and said in a low voice, "Tell me."

"It's just that I can't pretend to be an angel anymore." Ash shrugged, "The wings you see have been broken."

The dark space fell into silence, with only the sound of shallow and rapid breathing floating around.

Ash was not lying. The losses of the Golden Wings and Silver Wings were not that serious. Even with the secret poison transformation, that little bit of magic power could only be regarded as icing on the cake.

On the contrary, when the explosion happened in the kitchen just now, Ash subconsciously used his rainbow magic power to cast the Holy Domain, causing his rainbow virtual wings to be broken by the mysterious chain. You know, as long as he uses the color-fading dream secret poison, all his rainbow magic power can be efficiently converted into sword-colored magic power. Now that the rainbow virtual wings are gone, it is a real loss.

And now thinking back, Ash realized that he was stupid - the sanctuary can be constructed with any magic power, but the consumption rate is different. In other words, he could have used silver magic power to construct the sanctuary, and naturally he would only lose the silver virtual wings!

But if that were the case, Ash, without the gold and silver wings, would not have enough time to fly over to protect Nia - the gold virtual wing was on the shoulder blade on the upper back, and the rainbow virtual wing was on the middle back. The two virtual wings were not on the same horizontal line and could not be used as flying virtual wings - so it can only be said that everything was the best arrangement.

Just as Ash was thinking about the pros and cons, Nia suddenly asked, "You could have ignored me at that time."

"You're just thinking about this when you're not talking?"

"They are obviously much more important to you. I am nothing to you." Nia turned her body slightly. Even though she couldn't see him, Ash could feel her looking at him: "Why did you have to come and save me?"

"Although I don't know what you're thinking, it's not as complicated as you think." Ash smiled and said, "The situation was urgent at that time. I didn't have time to consider the gains and losses. My body was already moving before I could think."

"You don't have to feel like you owe me anything. You saved me and Vichy before, and now that I'm saving you, it's like paying off Vichy's debt... There's nothing owed to me between us."

Ash's comfort was simply to hope that Nia wouldn't feel any psychological pressure, but he didn't know what word offended her. She snorted coldly and stopped talking.

However, Ash didn't understand Nia's character, so he didn't think much about it and continued, "It's not a good idea to keep waiting here, let's treat the wound. My "Music Sword" can not only continuously restore life, but also heal specific wounds. But don't glow when I cast the spell, otherwise my last wing will be broken."

"Music Sword" could only be used as a continuous buff, but miracle spells were all created by magicians. Ash has been a nurse for so long, and in practice he has been constantly adjusting the "Music Sword" spell and has developed a technique that can heal local areas at high speed.

Ash's sword-colored virtual wings were still intact, so he could continue to maintain Fili's sword body barrier. Fortunately, his sword-colored virtual wings were almost half winged, otherwise he would not be able to continue casting spells.

Nia didn't say anything, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.

Ash hesitated for a moment, then said, "If you want to treat a specific injury, you need to cover the wound with your palm..."

"Then I won't treat you." Niya said calmly: "You treat yourself, I will close my eyes."

Ash persuaded: "You are also seriously injured. It is not enough to just recover your life. If you encounter a battle again later, your wounds will definitely be torn."

"It's torn if it's torn, it's torn if it's bleeding, I don't care."

"But if you don't get targeted treatment, your body will probably be left with scars. Is that okay with you?"

"Do you think scars are ugly?"

Niya's voice changed subtly, sounding mocking, but also relieved: "In your eyes, is the cross scar on my face ugly?"
