Chapter 178: The Night of the Jade Shatter 26
The eight clown puppets were like eight wound-up killing machines, their bodies were strung together by blood-colored silk threads, and they mechanically turned their necks to look at Cook, and each puppet's fingertips were densely packed with filaments, and even the golem's mouth spit out white filaments, like white tongues.
"A thousand paper cranes in the sky, take all my thoughts away. ”
Kasa's face suddenly turned pale, his arms fell weakly, and the tragic appearance made people unbearable to look at directly, standing in place, Kasa was like a lifeless sculpture.
Just as Kasa spoke, the so-called "Thousand Paper Cranes" actually appeared, and a large number of playing cards fell from his sleeves, and the pieces of paper flew into the air like birds before they hit the ground, and then they flew around Kasa and the clown puppet rings.
The playing cards flew into the darkness deep in the ruins, and when they flew out again, they had turned into paper cranes with filaments attached to their ends, and these paper cranes roared towards Cook, who was in a state of astonishment.
"Hurry! You two protect me! If Lao Tzu hangs up, none of you will want to leave here today!"
Cook retreated in panic and ducked behind Al and Spike, still holding a broken shield he had picked up from nowhere.
"Shut up!"
Al glared at Cook and yelled, this guy who was greedy for life and afraid of death was really too cowardly, and only showed his arrogance when facing the weak.
"Take that guy away, someone will judge him!" Al clenched his fists and said to Suiko beside him, "I'll stay and convince Kasa, get out of here!"
Looking at the boy standing in front of him, and glancing at the strangled silk thread again, Suizi did not refuse Al's kindness.
"Thank you. ”
With a whisper, Hoko retracted the wakicha and turned and ran towards Cook, her mission to leave safely with this burden before the battle broke out.
"Kasa, do you have to die?!" Al looked at Kasa's face, which had turned pale from the passage of life, "Dorothy will lose her brother because of this, her only relative in this world!"
"Steel Bone" spewed a stream of fire in front of Al like a wall, and Al didn't meet it, still foolishly believing that he could make Kasa let go of his hatred.
"If I don't die, how can Dorothy live well..."
An innocent smile appeared on the corner of Kasa's mouth, and his gaze was blank on the ground, but his now scarred appearance made people feel a little distressed no matter how he looked.
Those paper cranes rushed to the wall of fire like moths to the fire, and almost all of them were killed in the fire, but there were still a few paper cranes that rushed out of the flames with their charred bodies and hit the floor, only to hear the sound of "bang", those paper cranes directly blasted a hole in the concrete floor like a bomb.
"What a lot of destructive power!" Al increased the intensity of the flames, but the flight speed of those thousand paper cranes also increased sharply, "Kasa, what the hell are you talking about?! Stop, the whole room will be blown up by you if you continue like this!"
"I'm tired of making enemies everywhere, and Dorothy doesn't want to do that, well, I can't let her be like me, worrying about when she's going to get her heart pierced. ”
"But you can protect her, haven't you thought about her pain after the loss of her loved ones?!"
"It's better to suffer than to be deprived of your life. ”
Kasa's every word was so weak, as if his breathing would stop in the next second, but it sounded so desperate and painful to Al, he didn't know what Kasa had been through, but it must have been a difficult time.
The dense thousand paper cranes were like autumn leaves falling from the maple trees, and they dragged a long trail of flames through the wall of fire and exploded behind Al, several of them flew by wiping Al's clothes, and as the number of thousand paper increased dramatically, Al was also tossed to the ground by the shock wave of the explosion.
In this way, the council chamber of the Sea Boundary Tower was divided by a shattered bladed cage, half of which was in the dust, half in flames.
"If you die now, who will save Dorothy?!We don't even know where she is now!" A punch shattered a bust in the way, and Al quickly got up from the ground, "You give me some time, I'll go and interrogate the culprit now, trust me, I'll give you a satisfactory answer, stop!"
"Ai, I really hope we're no rivals," Kasa's fingers moved slightly, and the eight clown puppets guarding him finally moved, "It's too late, there's no turning back, after killing that guy, my body will be taken over by the Clown Emperor, and he will rescue Dorothy." ”
Listening to the footsteps of Suiko and the immobile Cook behind him gradually moving away, Al knew that they had left the area covered by the Thousand Paper Crane explosion, Al always felt a little uneasy in his heart, thinking of Cook's hateful face, Al wanted to punch him, but now he had to put all his mind on dealing with the Kasa in front of him.
"I'm ashamed to say that, as a member of the top assassin organization, Raven, this is the first time I've killed someone since I've grown up, and I look so weak when I pick up a butcher's knife with my hand that is used to holding a paintbrush, and I'm still as cowardly as ever, like that evening more than ten years ago, in the woods, in that fire..."
Kasa smiled silently wryly, and two blood-stained teardrops slipped down her cheeks and fell into the darkness.
"So you really slaughtered those villagers that night?!"
Al looked at Kasa with some annoyance, he had sympathized with Kasa who had come to rescue Dorothy, but now he was beginning to doubt his original judgment.
"It's me or it's not me, but it doesn't make a difference, I hate those who persecuted my parents to death, but I don't dare to do it, it's all up to the Clown Emperor, I just remember that after a sleep, I was surrounded by corpses in front of me, the smell of blood surrounded me, and it was too late after I realized my impulse. ”
"So, every time you have a grudge against someone, that berserk clown emperor will come out and get rid of them in your place?"
"Well, the brush can only paint a beautiful vision, but this cruel world is dark after all, it is not for me, I want to thank the clown, he swept away the darkness in front of me for me, if it weren't for him, maybe I would have rotted in some dirty corner a long time ago, no one cared. ”
Al was a little shocked, because in some way he was in a similar situation to Kasa, so he knew the feeling of being involuntarily the best.
"Kasa, I'm sorry, I can't let you continue to destroy today anyway, although Cook is not a good person, but it should be handed over to justice to judge, not us, so I have to stop you!"
"There's nothing to be sorry for, you also have something to protect, let's do it, Xiao Ai, let me see what kind of strength is hidden in the so-called 'excellent employees' in the mouth of the beluga whale." ”
Six of the eight golems scurried, then jogged, then accelerated, their fingers slicing everything in their path into small pieces like sharp blades, a clown golem far more dangerous than the one Al had just killed.
The outermost two golems ran into the darkness on both sides during the acceleration phase, silently infiltrating and disappearing, and no one knew where they had gone except Kasa.
Paper cranes flew above the wall of fire, first circling and flying, and then after the two puppets had lurked in the darkness, they followed.
In the face of the menacing puppet, Al did not hesitate, the fire scorched all the dust, Al's left arm suddenly bulged, instilling power into his left fist, a flame lion faintly appeared behind Al, but it only dissipated in an instant, the red flame rushed, and El rushed towards the six puppets.
Although Al's attack method is fierce, but the means are too simple, it is easy to show the shortcomings in actual combat, just when the flame fist is about to hit the opponent, the silk thread behind those puppets suddenly tightened, and under the control of the puppet, the puppets flexibly dodged the blazing flames.
Not only that, but several tiny silk threads were wrapped around Al's body at once, and under the pull of several puppets, these silk threads tied Al at once, and the sharp silk threads cut Al's arm, but did not cut him at the waist.
"Oh no! these threads are the kind I couldn't light with fire!"
Al struggled uneasily, trying to break free from these strange silk threads, but where would Kasa give him a chance, the white silk threads in the puppet's tongue rolled towards Al one after another, they were like the filaments spit out by a spider hunting, and suddenly a wriggling white "silkworm chrysalis" appeared in front of him.
The chrysalis flickered with fire, and it was Al tearing at the threads with all his might.
"It's over! next time, I must let my senior brother teach me two more tricks, it's too much of a loss to have brute force alone!"
In the reflection of the flames, the sweat stains on Al's face were clearly visible, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't break free from the tighter and tighter threads.
"I don't want to hurt you, Ai, but I can't let you ruin our plans either. ”
Kasa's fingers moved slightly, and the golems flying around Al immediately stopped, shattering the floor like six nails and sinking in, while also immobilizing Al deadly.
"Let me out! Listen to me tell you, you can't do anything stupid!"
With all the strength of his body, Al managed to hold his entire left arm open a small opening in the barely silky thread.
"Why is your faith in righteousness always late? Is belated justice still justice?"
After a heavy sigh, the whole space suddenly fell into a deathly silence, and then it was as if the whole world shook.
Not far behind Al, a violent explosion rang out, accompanied by a shrill girl's scream, and the council chamber was engulfed in flames.
Al's heart sank to the bottom.
