Chapter 67 Found a way to break the deadlock
Ange and Xander were out for nearly half an hour.
There was nothing unusual in the cave.
There is nothing outside the cave either.
Satisfied, Hela told them to come in and lifted the barrier around the cave entrance.
…
…
Scarlett ate three bowls of rice in a row, nearly stuffing herself to death. She looked up, and before she could even recover, she saw Hela take out the beast potion, put it on the table, and pushed it in front of her. "Want to play together?"
Scarlett knew that this was another test from Hela.
People who live on the edge of life will not trust others easily.
She needs to be tested repeatedly.
Scarlett looked at the animal form potion, smiled calmly, took it in her hand, and said, "Okay."
Hela asked Scarlett to choose someone to inject.
Scarlett looked through them one by one.
The three of them were not in good condition, and when they met her eyes, Evelin’s lips were pale and her face was calm.
Bella and Shirley's inner dissatisfaction suddenly surged out. Regardless of their weakness, they glared at her, their pretty faces filled with anger, as if she was the culprit. They used their eyes as knives and stabbed her desperately, trying to kill her.
Scarlett pursed her lips, her brows furrowed a little.
At most, she is an accomplice.
Scarlett was timid and chose the weakest Evelyn.
If she chose someone else, she was worried that they would rebel, hit her head-on, and die with her.
Evelyn lay on the ground, barely breathing, looking at the beast potion in Scarlett's hand, the corners of her mouth trembling, as if she was smiling, but not really.
There was still a stain of coagulated blood at the corner of her mouth, a deep red color that revealed a touch of desolation amidst its magnificence.
Evelyn probably guessed that her life was coming to an end.
She was seriously injured, and after being injected with this animal-shaping potion, she would probably turn into an animal form soon.
What a pity.
In the end, nothing could be done.
She closed her eyes and greeted the moment of death with a calm attitude.
"sorry."
Scarlett opened the animal form potion, took out the needle, and injected it into Evelyn's body while whispering an apology.
"It doesn't matter."
Evelin smiled, and tenderness flashed across her peaceful face.
Although she had never met Scarlett.
But she remembered Scarlett's voice.
She was the hostess who saved her and Eugene at the shelter.
I'm sorry.
She no longer had the energy to even say thank you.
It would have been great if I had met you earlier.
At least there was something she could do for her.
Not like now.
Only his broken body is left to survive, without any chance to repay his benefactor.
After the injection of the animal form agent, Scarlett stood up. Before she could catch her breath, a dagger appeared in front of her and a clear voice was heard.
"Kill her."
Scarlett was stunned and met Hela's eyes.
A pair of phoenix eyes were slightly raised, with a hint of ruthlessness in their heroic spirit, and they were staring at her without blinking.
Scarlett took a step back, "Huh?"
Hela held the dagger forward and repeated, "Kill her."
"Why?"
Scarlett took another step back, her face slightly pale.
This time she stepped back, and Ange and Xander came over and stood beside her, watching her movements.
Their faces were expressionless, but their eyes were extremely gloomy, and when they fell on her, it was like a layer of frost covering her.
Hela smiled and said, "Don't be nervous. I just want a letter of surrender. I know you're not a simple person, but I don't need you to do anything. She's going to die anyway, so why not give her a quick death?"
Hela gripped the dagger backwards and pressed the hilt into Scarlett’s hand, her fingers intertwining with hers to hold the dagger firmly. “As long as you kill her, I will definitely take you out tomorrow. Keep your word.”
Scarlett looked up blankly, then lowered her head helplessly, looking at the dagger in her hand.
Hela was so close to her that she could thrust the dagger into her abdomen by stretching out her arm.
If you are lucky, you can kill her, but if you are unlucky, you can injure her.
But none of this can guarantee that she can escape unscathed.
You still have to endure it.
Scarlett hesitated for a few seconds.
Finally, he grasped the dagger tightly and walked to Evelyn's side. The blade flashed with a bright light and slashed towards Bella and Xueli's eyes.
Bella scolded: “Scarlett Shen, you are not allowed to touch her!”
Shirley roared, "If you dare to kill her, I will tear you into pieces!"
Although the two men were tied up and at a disadvantage, they were very powerful and their voices were sharper than the dagger in her hand, almost piercing her eardrums.
Scarlett rolled her eyes at everyone and said, "Just take care of yourselves. You can't even protect yourselves and you're still trying to be a hero."
She reached out and pinched Evelin’s face, raised her chin, and said disdainfully, “What if I touched her? Come and hit me if you have the guts!”
"you!"
Bella choked and couldn't speak for a long time.
In her current situation, she really couldn't do anything to her!
"And you."
Scarlett glared at Shirley. "Don't yell at me. I hate it the most."
Her tone turned vicious, and she continued to threaten, "Otherwise, I'll kill her first, and then you! Who knows who will be torn into pieces!"
“Scarlett Shen!”
Shirley was so breathless from vomiting that she just wanted to vomit blood.
If she hadn’t been tied up, she would have killed Sijia Shen to vent her anger!
Scarlett never wastes time internally. After confronting people, she suddenly felt relieved and turned to look at Evelin.
The other person closed his eyes, breathing in less and out more, and it seemed that he was about to die.
She picked up the dagger and compared it to Evelin's neck. After thinking about it, she felt something was wrong, so she moved the dagger towards her heart, pressing the pointed end against it. After hesitating for a few seconds, she felt something was wrong, so she continued to move the dagger back to her neck.
But he didn’t do anything, and kept staring at Evelin’s neck for nearly a minute.
Seeing that she hadn't taken any action yet, Hela thought she was stalling for time and asked with a forced smile, "Do you want me to help you?"
"OK."
Scarlett raised the dagger, her face sincere.
Hela originally wanted to mock Scarlett, but she didn't expect her to agree so quickly and hand the dagger to her.
She was stunned for a few seconds, staring at the dagger.
Scarlett's face was sincere, and her tone was also sincere, "I'm sorry, I haven't killed anyone..."
While talking.
Evely transformed back into her beast form.
A smooth-haired orange cat.
Scarlett hid her shock and continued, "I've never killed a cat before, so I don't know how to do it. You should do it. I can pay you an extra 10 million as a reward for your hard work."
Scarlett thought Hela would hesitate, and that this kind of test would be enough as long as she could see her sincerity.
Unexpectedly.
Hela took the dagger and stabbed Evelin in the abdomen very smoothly, as cleanly and neatly as if she had killed a rabbit.
But this time.
She didn't succeed.
Stopped by Scarlett.
Scarlett didn't know what she was thinking. The moment the dagger flashed with a cold light, she reached out and tightly grasped the sharp blade.
She knew she shouldn't do this.
She and Evelyn were just casual acquaintances, they didn't even know each other, there was no need for her to put herself in danger for a stranger.
But when she came to her senses, she had already done it.
She didn't want anyone else to die in front of her.
The blade cut her hand, and bright red blood dripped onto the orange kitten. The dying kitten whimpered, opened its eyelids, and then closed them weakly, breathing very evenly.
Seeing this scene, Bella and Shirley looked at Scarlett in confusion. The horror in their hearts surged like a tide, and the shock was higher than the other wave, pressing on their hearts and making it difficult for them to breathe.
Their brows were furrowed, their gazes fixed on Scarlett's pale and resolute face, their broken eyes shrinking and expanding in shock and astonishment.
I couldn't calm down for a long time.
Hela's slender eyebrows shot up, and she glanced at Scarlett's hand and asked in confusion, "What do you mean?"
