Chapter 719: Final Reincarnation
At the end of everything, at the end of the corridor on the second floor, two slender figures quietly stand. They are all hidden in the backlit shadows, and seem to be part of this darkness themselves.
One of them, with his neat short purple hair, turned his back to the cloister, whispered something to the other, and then there was silence for a while.
"Oh, I'm not the host. After a long time, the man leaning against the wall slowly straightened up, and his long aqua blue hair fell from his shoulders, soft and smooth like satin.
"It's just that I once negotiated a deal with the other party......"
As he spoke, a ray of slanting sun poured down from the corner of the wall, reflecting his figure just in it. The shoulders are decorated with wide furs, dignified and luxurious, and the delicate face shows the bewitching beauty of the fox clan. At the beginning of the game, Duanmu Zhi, who was already dead, was standing here with a casual joke on his face.
"Who is the other person?" the purple-haired young man Xi Hanjun spoke again. The tone is not salty or light, and he is not surprised by Duanmuzhi's "resurrection from the dead", and his expression is only expected.
Duanmu Zhi rolled his eyes, blank at his question. Xi Hanjun said quickly: "You and the organizer are just a cooperative relationship, but he and the person who gave you strength are not the same person, so who is the other person?"
Duanmu glanced at him lightly, a hint of approval gradually flashed from shock in his eyes, and the corners of his mouth slowly hooked up a light smile.
"It's easy to talk to someone as smart as you. I can't tell you who he is right now, but I can say that they've been plotting something big lately. When things really make a splash, you should be able to easily judge that they have something to do with them, and then you can follow the vine, wouldn't it be good?"
Xi Hanjun was silent, between the two smart people, he only had to say three points, and he seemed to have agreed with this explanation.
"Speaking of which, you're a better seedling. Duanmu turned around with a faint smile and looked carefully around Xi Hanjun.
"Because you have been neglected and rejected since you were a child, your growth process is full of oppression and bitterness, and because of this, your heart is full of darkness, and you have wisdom that others do not have. If I say, I'm willing to give you the strength to be the ultimate winner, how do you reply?"
Xi Hanjun was silent again, and Duanmu Zhi was smiling. It's a lucrative bargain, and no one can resist the temptation of power, high or low. The weak desire to become stronger, and the strong want to be stronger, and the greed of the human heart is endless.
In the past, he and all the people who the mysterious force found him, when they learned that there was a dark potential in their bodies that could be explored, they couldn't wait to express their willingness to bow down from now on-
"......" Xi Hanjun also struggled with desire for a long time, but in the end, his answer was......
"I thought, not necessarily. ”
"Oh?" Duanmu Zhi was really surprised this time, someone would refuse the opportunity to become stronger?
"There is no pie in the sky, and no one will give power to others for no reason. Xi Hanjun's raised eyes were still sharp, "I think those who come close for power will only become puppets in your hands in the end, right?"
Duanmu Zhi stared at the demon boy in front of him, as if he was studying something rare. Gradually, he laughed, his shoulders trembling.
"Huh...... You're really smart, you're right, just a little ......"
"What we want to make is not a puppet, but a ......"
At this moment, his countenance sank into darkness again.
"'Container'—"
……
In the spacious and bright room of ten people, by the windowsill was a dry potted plant, the branches were bare, only the last leaf was wobbly, and six yellow leaves lay quietly in the soil.
As everyone opened their eyes one after another, a terrifying scream rang out in the fourth room.
"How is that possible...... The cycle isn't over yet!"
"No...... This is not true......" Jin Siqi's body couldn't help but shrink into the chair, looking at Jiang Caini who was sitting in front of her, her whole face was distorted, her lips were already white, and her limbs trembled unconsciously, as if she had seen a ghost. I am afraid that even the destruction of the world before her eyes cannot compare to the strong tremor and despair she received at this time.
This is all because Zhong Yanyan sprinkled the sap of "Phantom Fragrance Konjac" in the potted plants in each room, so that the number of leaves in each room was different. And this illusion has another special effect, that is, "from the oneness". At first, how many leaves are seen in the first room, and then when you come to other rooms, you will be bewitched by the phantom incense konjac, and the number of leaves you see is still based on the first time.
Although Ye Shuo didn't think to go to other rooms to check at that time, Jin Siqi, Jiang Caini and others cautiously checked room by room. It is precisely because of this that they are convinced of the number of reincarnations they know.
This unexpected seventh reincarnation was a strong disappointment for Jin Siqi, but for Jiang Caini, who was sitting in another chair, it was a strong joy of rebirth.
The last time she was reincarnated, she really thought she was going to die...... Died at the hands of the ant she had always looked down upon...... She was desperate, she was unwilling, but now it seemed ...... Ha, what, ants are always ants, even if they calculate everything, in the end it will be a waste......
"Huh...... It's a pity, Jin Siqi ......" Jiang Caini's body was also convulsed, her hands tightly clasped the wooden chair backrest, and her clothes were soaked with sweat, as if she had just been fished out of the water. He gasped for breath, and the expression on his face was like crying and laughing.
"Although I don't quite understand, it seems that you have fallen short......, haven't you?
The others didn't know what had happened to the two of them, and those who didn't have memories were amazed, and even those who had memories were confused. However, staying on the sidelines and not involving the center of the contradiction is the unanimous idea of everyone.
This awkward atmosphere didn't last long, Jiang Caini stood up under the gaze of everyone, strode across the room, and stood in front of the pale Jin Siqi. A snow-bright long sword also rested on her neck at the same time.
"Why don't you beg for mercy?" staring at Jin Siqi coldly, Jiang Caini clenched the hilt of the sword in her hand and looked down at her condescendingly, "Just like you did back then?"
"Even if you may not really die this time, I have enough patience to kill you until the end of the reincarnation!"
Jin Siqi twitched the corners of his mouth bitterly: "Becoming a king or defeating a villain, there is nothing to say." ”
As soon as I mentioned the old days, that dark little room flashed in front of my eyes again. Revenge failed, and with Jiang Caini's personality, it was impossible to allow herself to live again. In the end, will everything still end up the same as ......it did at the beginning? Nothing has changed......
The coldness of the blade touching the side of the neck, and the sharp killing intent all showed the despair of dying. Jin Siqi waited, but she waited for a long time, but she didn't wait for the fatal sword to fall. With confusion, she raised her gaze, just opposite Jiang Caini's cold gaze.
"A stupid person does have a stupid way to die, but a smart provocateur should also have his own way to die!" Looking down at Jin Siqi, Jiang Caini suddenly sneered, "Killing you with such a sword will not eliminate the hatred in my heart." ”
The long sword was simply withdrawn, and it was inserted into the ground with a "ding", and it also made a loud oath.
"Let's enter the Heavenly Palace Gate together. ”
"When I go back, I will ask my father to give you a recommendation spot, and then you will have a showdown. ”
Jin Siqi raised his head blankly, almost suspecting that he had misheard. Jiang Caini pursed her lips and continued with a sneer:
"You seem to be a person who values face. The stage here is too small to build a temple for my revenge. In the Tiangongmen assessment competition, I will make you lose in front of the world, and let you understand that I am stronger than you, not only my family background! Of course, if you are eliminated in the primary selection stage, then don't blame me for not giving you a chance. ”
The moment she was on the verge of death, she thought about it a lot. I have always believed in the "power first", and I also have a new understanding. At that time, she thought that if there was still a chance, she would not be a strong man with courage and no strategy, she would definitely ...... Be more cautious!
To defeat a person is not just to let him die immediately. Perhaps, it would be much more fun to destroy everything he holds dear first, and make life worse than death......
Jin Siqi was silent for a long time. Since she was a child, this may be the first time Jiang Caini has tried to talk to her from an "equal" position, which also means that she recognizes her opponent...... This realization actually made her feel a strange satisfaction in an instant. It turns out that I care so much about identity, even if it comes from the enemy......
Yes, due to her mediocre background, she will always have a subconscious inferiority complex by the side of Jiang Caini, the "princess". The more arrogant one side is, the more humble the other side is, and in this way, the gap between the two is finally pulled out of the sky. There is no need to even compete for anything, just based on the external identities of the two people, there is already a result. That's why she used to be so greedy for the warmth given by that senior brother.
Standing on the highest stage, in front of the world, fight with dignity...... This was also my own wish. It's just that I don't know when, I've been so humble that I even gave up this wish.
Well, that's it...... I'm going to fight...... I want to prove in front of everyone that I am no worse than you...... The person who will kneel down and apologize will be you...... Jiang Caini......!
Thinking of this, Jin Siqi raised his head suddenly, and for the first time, he did not shy away from looking directly into her eyes: "I accept your challenge." ”
……
The next day, the seventh and final reincarnation finally kicked off.
The war in the bell tower never stopped, and even the newly formed teams of the previous time were inevitably divided and betrayed. The incumbent is triumphant, and the deceived are furious. But these small battles were soon drowned out in an even greater calamity.
Ye Shuo, he was like the most cold-blooded demon, mercilessly killing every contestant, and soon there were corpses on his side. But he still didn't stop, and the spiritual power around him exploded, rushing to the next target again.
"I don't want to die...... Don't kill me!!" The farmer whom he had overtaken fell to his knees, pleading bitterly, tears and snot all over his face.
"I'm here to save you...... You'll understand when you get to the next reincarnation!" Ye Shuo couldn't help but say, and pounced on him and pressed him to the ground. The whole person rode on him, brandishing the machete that had been snatched from his hand, and chopped down one after another. It wasn't until his neck was chopped to shreds and his bloody head rolled aside.
Xi Hanjun said that in order for these people to recover their memories, they must first be allowed to die miserably enough...... Although every murderous scene made him want to be disgusted, but in order to save them...... Had to do it!
When the bell tower was in chaos, Jing Chuzhuo was hiding behind the pillars in the corner of the hall. From time to time, he poked his head out and looked outward, and at the same time stared closely at the jade slip in his hand, and the progress bar at the top had moved to "95%". It's almost ...... It's not ......
Come on...... You've got to catch up...... Jing Chuzhuo's heart hung in his throat. Although it is impossible to stop the killing of the outside world, as long as you can invade the system and rewrite the program before the end of the reincarnation, you can still resurrect the previous victims......
……
"What is that idiot going crazy about?" On the corridor on the second floor, Jian Bugui, who had always been cold-mouthed, frowned. Just as he was about to go out to stop him, Zhong Yanyan suddenly stopped in front of him.
"He's doing what he's supposed to do. Then it's time for us to do what we have to do. ”
A powerful magical force swirled around him, sweeping through the open ripples. The sword is not a demon hunter, feeling this breath of hatred to the bone, his breathing suddenly became short, and even Ye Shuo temporarily put it aside, gritting his teeth and raising the three-point soft cloud sword.
"Demons, you must die!"
……
The pillars where they were hiding exploded, and rubble debris flew in all directions. Shielded by the smoke and dust, Jing Chuzhuo quickly got up, rolled on his side several times in succession to avoid the explosion range, and ran to the other side with the jade slip in his hand.
The progress bar on the screen jumps to "96%".
Ye Shuo also saw the moving figure, and was about to rush to chase and kill, when he heard an angry question from behind.
"What the hell are you doing?Are you going to jump into this bad game at the last minute?!"
Feng Qiu, Bai Yun, as well as Jian Zhiheng and Guan Lien were all standing there. Seeing the corpse in this place with his own eyes, the death is even more challenging the miserable limit, even if Su Ri and Ye Shuo are friendly, but at this time, the eyes of the four people are also flashing with indescribable disgust.
"I'm sorry, I can't explain it to you now, but please believe that I'm doing this to save everyone!" Ye Shuo still kept in mind the taboo of "rules can't be exported", so he could only bear everyone's misunderstanding, and explained in such a general way for the time being.
Jian Zhiheng's breathing was a little heavy: "Although I don't know your plans, I tell you, the method that needs to kill people to achieve it will definitely not be a good way! If you are obsessed, we will stop you even if we fight to the death!"
All four have memories...... There is no need to erase it, and it can't be erased, but the time for a reincarnation is limited, and they can't continue to obstruct themselves......
Ye Shuo gritted his teeth, but without explaining a word, he used his spiritual power and rushed forward. Jian Zhiheng and the others were also indignant when they saw him so stubborn, and they each held their swords to meet him.
The battle over there bought Jing Chuzhuo a little time for the time being, and at this time he was curled up in the corner, staring straight at the jade slip in his hand.
The progress bar has climbed to "97%".
