Has anyone thought about this question?
What does fresh blood taste like?
Is it the illusion of rust in your throat when you run to your limit?
Or is it the fresh and sweet taste that certain special groups of people crave?
Or is it a stench that makes you want to cover your nose and mouth?
Different people will give different answers due to different circumstances.
As for Yun Shuchang now, feeling the coldness of warm blood flowing down her spine, she has her own perspective.
The taste of blood is... bitter and despairing.
She didn't feel any pain; the blood wasn't from her own body, but from her teammates behind her.
The enemy has reached the rear of the team, and the teammates are likely already dead.
This also means that their hastily assembled four-person team has now revealed a huge flaw.
The already fragile defensive line, which had been held so tightly, was completely breached at this moment!
"Ah, help—"
Instinctively wanting to turn around to rescue, Yun Shuchang heard the abruptly stopped cry of pain from her temporary comrade behind her, and her ears twitched.
Hehehe—click.
The piercing screams were abruptly cut off before they could even begin to echo across the battlefield.
That sound was the crisp cracking of the neck bones being directly crushed.
It's hopeless.
That comrade was already dead; there was no way to save him.
Turning back to fight is pointless; it's not about abandoning someone to their death, since turning around would only mean certain death.
Tsk!
Yun Shuchang smacked her lips hard and bit them tightly.
Although the two didn't know each other very well, and didn't even know each other's names, that person was, after all, a comrade-in-arms who fought together.
Moreover, this situation inevitably made Yun Shuchang feel a sense of shared misfortune, as if she were about to be the next one.
"But we can't give up yet!"
Without time to turn back, Yun Shuchang, realizing the situation was becoming critical, immediately held her breath and continued charging forward without hesitation.
"I don't want to die here!"
I haven't even started a sweet romance yet!
How can someone as love-obsessed as me die without ever being in a relationship?
Absolutely not!
"……break out!"
Knock knock knock!
Beneath the mangled body, a heart pounded violently.
The already ethereal movements accelerated once more. Yun Shuchang flew up like a black shadow, dodging several extraordinary creatures rushing towards her, slicing their throats in the instant she passed by.
In the extremely short time it took for her to launch her attack, Yun Shuchang's body began to undergo even deeper changes.
Yun Shuchang's limbs became longer and stronger, and her hair gradually grew. Some feline fur even appeared on her exposed body!
Bloodline Burst, one of the Watchers' secret techniques, uses special methods to stimulate the bloodline for a short period of time to achieve a primal-like effect.
This is an ability that is slightly weaker than burning bloodline, with moderate power and a smaller cost.
However, while the negative effects are not as severe as those from burning blood, they should not be underestimated. This is also a power that will not be used lightly unless it is in the most dangerous and critical moment.
Miracles come at a price.
Unleashing potential inevitably means overdrawing future potential, which may bring more pain and suffering, and even require sacrificing something more precious.
"But who cares about all that now!"
That's right, now that she's about to die, Yun Shuchang no longer cares about what the future holds.
What the future holds is not something to worry about now; we should live in the present.
Survival is the most important thing!
Moreover, with the Watchers' abilities, as long as the victim doesn't die on the spot, there's always a way to heal even the most severe injuries.
"The prerequisite... is that I can survive!"
Although we are now one person short, if the remaining three people get together, they can still hold out for a while, and maybe hold out until the situation changes.
The Watchers' rescue shouldn't take too long, and there was a loud bang just now, which made the supernatural beings hesitate a lot.
This is an opportunity.
His pupils had completely transformed into the vertical pairs of a feline eye, and he exuded a ferocious, beast-like aura.
She's going to fight her way out!
However, things changed faster than she had imagined.
In the battle just now, the young legend who transformed into a dragon did not directly wreak havoc on the battlefield.
Since the initial dragon breath, he has not engaged in direct combat with anyone, consciously avoiding being surrounded.
Although the legion was divided into many small teams under the siege of the fissure and supernatural creatures, some people reacted very quickly and managed to get together before anything changed.
These people have been fighting as a group since they realized the situation had changed, and they are still trying to join forces with more people.
The giant dragon, meanwhile, strolled leisurely through the various gathering places, manually separating them once again.
...with death.
Each time, it was just one strike.
Simply and easily, it falls suddenly from the sky, taking lives with its sharp claws in the massive impact.
Yun Shuchang's left arm was injured in the blast at that moment. If she hadn't dodged in time, half of her body would probably have been shattered.
Fortunately, he didn't seem to care how many deaths a single attack would cause; his goal was simply to separate the Awakened Ones who were gathered together, and he would leave once they became more scattered again.
Like a well-fed wild beast with the leisure to toy with its prey, enjoying the miserable state of its dying animal.
Although she was disgusted by this feeling of being looked down upon, Yun Shuchang had to admit that she still felt a little lucky.
"fine……"
The other party's contempt, ironically, gave her and everyone else present a glimmer of hope.
But now, that young legend seems to have had enough, and is tired of it all.
She yawned, and then...
He descended from the sky once again!
It was like a cannonball falling from the sky, crashing straight down to the ground!
Yun Shuchang: !!!
"Damn it..."
Moreover, judging from the landing point, it was not far from Yun Shuchang!
Feeling the dragon's might approaching, the legendary pressure, and the sense of impending death swell at the same time, she actually withdrew from her explosive state!
not good!
When it rains, it pours.
Their chances of survival were already slim, and now their desperate struggle had been forcibly interrupted.
escape……
If she could, Yun Shuchang wouldn't want to die here.
Although she was a soldier, she also wanted to enjoy a good life, rather than spending her whole life on the battlefield.
Suddenly, a thought flashed through her mind.
"I want to live."
After that, all that was left for Yun Shuchang was darkness.
boom--
