Chapter 69: Memories
Darkface stood in the shadow under a boulder, looking at the slowly rising mushroom cloud in the distant sky, slightly distracted.
The black tight-fitting leather armor sets off her amazing curved figure, and in order to facilitate extreme movements, the leather armor has a thin slit on the outside of her thighs, and you can faintly see the slightly exposed snow-white skin when she moves.
When she walks in seclusion, the exterior blends with the background, leaving only a shadow outside, so she never walks in the sunlight, always moving along the darkness.
This is where the name of the Black Ghost comes from.
Killing the raven had shattered her plans, and the injury to her arm had slowed her down severely, and if she had done it before, she would have been sure to kill the chalk prince in front of the orcs and elves in front of her, and then flee in hiding.
But it's hard to do it now, and if it doesn't work in one shot, then it's hard for her to have another chance.
She could sense the strength of the orc, and looking at the other party's sword, it should be a sword master.
The elves had an aura on them that she couldn't see, and she couldn't tell what it was, but she knew it was powerfulβit wasn't just an ability.
Because she, the Black Ghost, has abilities.
With her innate ability to perceive things, her ability to adapt to changes in her environment, her unmatched speed, and the leather armor on her body, she can do things that many top assassins cannot.
Her skills come from her father's legacy.
Dark Face's gaze drooped, and on her left and right ring fingers, she wore the same silver-white ring, one from her mother and one from her father.
There was a wet blur in front of me.
"Mommy, Mommy, when will Daddy be back?" asked the young girl next to her, bouncing up.
"He'll be back soon. The woman looked up at her with a loving expression on her face, "Will you learn those things from him?"
"I don't want it, I'm so tired, those weapons are so heavy. She pouted and looked over from the side, her little face pouting forward, very cute.
"Mom also thinks it's not good to learn those things. The woman touched the top of her head, "But if you learn to protect you, your mother will be more at ease." β
"Mom, are you worried about anything?"
"Well, there are a lot of them. β
The screen flashed.
"Dad, if there is a lighter weapon, I can't hold it. She wiped the beads of sweat from her head.
"So, use daggers, they're perfect for you, but you'll need dual wielding to be the most powerful. There was warmth in the man's gaze, "Like this, hold this in one hand and this in the other." β
"Looks like it's fun, hee-hee. She waved her dagger curiously, "Hey!"
"Good girl, the most important thing to pay attention to when practicing dual wielding is ......"
"What, Daddy?"
"Just don't stab yourself. β
"Wow, it hurts, can I cry dad?" she looked at the man with tears in her eyes, her little nose twitching.
"Haha, you can't cry your nose......"
So she didn't cry.
One day my mother went out and never came back.
Later her father took her far away, leaving her with a large package, and she lived for ten years in a house hidden underground.
"Dad, I miss my mother, I want my mother. She cried again.
"Mom...... Won't be coming back. β
"What do you mean you won't come back?"
"She's no longer in this world. The metal blade twisted and crumpled in the man's palm, blood oozing out.
"Where did she go?"
"A place where we will all go in the future, when we can be reunited as a family. The man stood up, "Good girl, Daddy is leaving too, and you won't be safe if Daddy stays here." β
He placed a pair of rings in front of her.
"If one day, you meet someone, you can give him one of them. β
"Whom did you meet?" she didn't understand.
"You'll know when the time comes. β
"Woo, Dad, don't you go......"
When she cried and fell asleep and woke up, all that greeted her was darkness.
Dad never came back, either.
The rest of the time, she learned everything he had left behind, and learned many secrets of the world from those notes.
She never cried again.
Mom and Dad.
Why would they die? All the people in this world deserve to die, but they don't.
Those who killed them, she wanted them to die one by one in front of the rings.
She will not hesitate to clear all the obstacles in the way of this goal.
No one in this world should live.
She closed her eyes, and something sparkling slipped out of the corners of her eyes.
When I opened it again, I only had an emotionless, cold gaze.
She needs a lot of power.
On this road, meet gods and kill gods, and meet demons and kill demons.
She jumped out of the shadows and disappeared into the darkness of the jungle.
......
Craig sat under a thick redwood, his consciousness blurred for a while, and he seemed to see and hear the firelight, black smoke, and cries.
He knew that he had reached his limit, and if he continued like this, he would only be greeted by death.
But he can't die, and the people are still waiting for him to save him.
The only hope is in that blood-fire capsule.
But where did the damned humans go? Blood and Fire were in the hands of the man with the magician.
He gasped and began to bite the shackles on his hands with his sharp canine teeth, but in vain.
The shackles made of stainless steel were hard to shake even with his sharp teeth.
Blood ran down the corners of his mouth and trickled down his gray chest hair.
A few days earlier he had escaped with his two brothers and met the gang in the forest.
The other party recognized their identities and did not hesitate to do so.
They were so weak that they ran day and night for three days and three nights, from the territory to the Black Curse Forest.
After a feeble resistance, they were escorted back, and after a day of wandering in the forest, just a few hours earlier, the group had split into two groups at the edge of the forest.
"See this?" said the leading samurai, if he was a human warrior - holding a red, translucent object in his finger, "this is Bloodfire, you must have heard of it, because it can be used against the bloodlust of your orcs." β
He gasped as he watched as his two young brothers were dragged into another team, shackled and tied to the back of their horses with ropes in their hands, tumbling and stumbling, looking back at him with despair in their eyes.
"We'll take you somewhere, orc warriors. The lead samurai said, "When the time comes, you will be asked to take this propolis capsule, and then open your shackles, and you will become very powerful." β
Craig looked at each other and didn't speak.
"By the way, you can also transform, so that your power will increase again. The leading samurai looked him up and down, "If you still have this ability, I suggest you do it, there is a human you need to kill, and I will release you and your two brothers when you complete the mission." β
"Otherwise...... "The lead samurai retracted the capsule into his arms, "I'll cut off their heads and hang them at the foot of the Misty Mountains, and it's not bad to be scared." β
"What would you choose, mighty warrior?" he looked down at him.
There is no choice to choose.
Craig retracted his thoughts, gasping for air, feeling like the world was starting to get dark, and something was moving away from him.
He looked ahead, and before he could lose consciousness, he saw several figures appear at the top of the hillside.
