Chapter 38: Winter Goes to Spring, Flowers Bloom (Part 5)
Birds.
Raptor.
Squirrel.
Hare.
Animals.
Wolf.
Countless animals, coming from the depths of the deep and dark forest, layer after layer, surrounded the fragrance and approached closer and closer. They had almost identical, red, bloodthirsty eyes, and in silence, staring at Yuxiang as if they were a poisonous spider with six eyes and eight legs on their backs.
Creepy, creepy.
"Unfortunately, this is the forest. β
When Nalan opened her mouth to speak, they all stopped together, staring at Yuxiang from a distance, silently, putting pressure on her.
He is their head, and they are his siblings. With his will alone, he could easily use these puppets as if he were moving his fingers. So, when the thought of "stop" came to his mind, they stopped. "Just let her catch her breath," he thought to himself, "and she's running out of the way anyway." β
"A cheap and easy-to-use flesh puppet like this is simply inexhaustible. β
With that, Nalan Xiao smiled and lowered his head, reached out and touched the head of a wild wolf that stopped next to his lap. Of course, the wolf wouldn't give him any reaction. It is no longer a "living being", and certainly does not have the "thinking" and "instinctive reactions" that normal living beings have. It was nothing more than a living corpse that had been forcibly taken over by higher beings and stripped of consciousness.
"All I need to do is send out a few drops of blood every now and then, and they'll come to me on their own. Nalan Twilight raised her head, patted the wolf fur and fleas off her palm, and continued, "You know, I have many ways to avoid your eyes and accomplish this without you knowing. β
"Humph......"
Yuka used her right hand to cover her bleeding left shoulder, and snorted expressionlessly to show that she knew.
"That's why I like you so much, the wind is fragrant. Nalan Yu thought so, but the smile on his face deepened, "Seriously injured, broken arm, blood loss, surrounded, and if you eat another blow, you will have to die." In such a situation, you don't even have the slightest bit of uneasiness, the smallest mote of dust. β
"You'll be scared, you'll tremble, you'll be anxious, you'll feel pain, you'll get weaker and weaker because you've lost too much blood. The appearance of those 'prey's before they died, they were almost the same, and I could feel the fear in their hearts just by listening to their heartbeats. But your heartbeat is different from theirs, it sounds like sitting alone in a flower-scented greenhouse on a day off, tasting a good black tea, too calm, too natural. I've done so much that I can't even make a stir in your heart. This makes me feel that you must have some kind of backhand, some kind of invincible killer weapon that allows you to complete the reversal no matter what situation you are in. β
"Let me see, how are you going to deal with this next move!"
"The barrage game is about to begin!" shouted Nalan twield his fingers.
All the animals, birds, and beasts, all moved in unison with the snap of their fingers. Stretching, accelerating, running, flying, the distance between them and Yuka is not much, and at full speed, it will be reduced to zero in an instant.
"Remember that sparrow?"
Nalan Yu bent down and picked up Kazami Yuka's left hand, held it, waved it at Yuka a few times, and reminded with "kindness":
"If I were you, I would never let these beasts touch me, not a single one!"
"yes, this is the ...... of the forest"
Yuka moved her lips, and then, she lowered her head and leaned on, crouching on the ground, her remaining right hand pressed on the ground beneath her feet. Her face was buried under her drooping hair, no longer visible. For some reason, seeing her posture, Nalan Twilight's heartbeat instinctively accelerated.
It's coming!
The closest, fastest fawn, was less than five meters away. Considering that there is still a small splash distance after the self-explosion, there is really not much time left for Yuxiang.
"The seeds of the forest are inexhaustible. β
Yuxiang raised her head, and where the crystal red pupils swept by, the scene she was born was like a crazy illusion. The emerald green shoots burst out of the ground and grew at an almost frantic rate, turning the silver world of frost and snow into a dark green forest in less than a second. They resemble thick vines, but they also resemble trees that are so overgrown that they have to be bent and twisted. They filled the space where the animals were moving forward, and all but the small piece of land where Yuka stood. They stretched out thorny branches and entangled everything that moved.
Wrap around, tighten, puncture the skin, and then some terrible force will guide them, causing them to suck the blood of those prey, take their life force, plunder, and continue to grow. Entangled vampires don't struggle, after all, they're just puppets with no instincts. Of course, even if you struggle, it is useless, once the prey is caught, the strength of these vines will only grow stronger and stronger as the energy is absorbed, until the prey is completely exhausted.
Countless blood-sucking creatures?Indeed, in Yuxiang's eyes, "innumerable" does exist, but they are now "countless corpses".
Countless corpses, shriveled and covered with bones, slipped through the cracks of the soaked thorny tentacles, making a "tinkling" sound like a wooden wind chime. Along with it was the eardrum-swelling whisper of the terrible plant, which only Kazami Yuka could understand.
"Looks like you're not good at getting sucked. β
Yuka stood up and smiled a slightly lighter smile. The dense, thick greenery obscured her vision, making it impossible for her to see where Nalan was anymore. But she knew very well that the guy was alive and well.
Because, if he dies, this "flower" can grow taller.
"Strong, but stupid. β
She heard Nalan's voice, far away, yet extremely close, its direction ......
Yuka couldn't help but lower her head and look at her feet.
The voice came from directly below her!
"The wind is fragrant, you use practical actions to interpret what it means to be 'cocooned and self-bound'!"
The ground cracked at Yuka's feet, and Nalan Twilight rushed out of it, and with him appeared an infected mole - the only blood-sucking creature that had escaped the clutches of the plant, excluding Nalan Twilight himself.
His ability to "connect" allows him to instantly reach any location that his blood touches, such as this mole hidden at Yuxiang's feet.
At this moment, Youxiang was embarrassed, very embarrassed, embarrassed to death.
Now, the distance between Nalan Twilight and her is zero, close, and she can even feel his snort. Be prepared, attack unprepared, no matter how Yuxiang reacts, the first to strike will be Nalan Twilight. Moreover, there was no room for her to dodge the blow right now.
All the space around here has been filled by the precious flower she made, and only a few square meters of cracks are left for this foothold. Here, she will have to face Nalan Twilight's deadly, no-escape raid.
This is real, "cocooning and self-bonding".
However, Yuxiang still has a trick.
Nalan Twilight's movements stopped, from assaulting at full speed to being completely still, and his expression was also frozen on the confidence that was bound to be obtained. The groundhog at his feet suddenly exploded, splattering blood on his legs. This is not a self-detonation, that is, it did not explode on its own according to Nalan Twilight's orders. On the slimy scrap of flesh it left behind, a twisted, filthy, and eerie, colorful "flower" composed entirely of flesh, internal organs, and other soft tissues was slowly bloomingβit should have been part of the mole's body.
The wind is fragrant, the lord of flowers in the four seasons, and has the ability to "bloom".
Spring flowers, summer flowers, exotic flowers and plants, and even, the "flowers" defined by Yuxiang itself.
This was the last time she knocked down Nalan Twilight, using the flesh and blood of the enemy to bloom flowers on their own corpses.
"If you can force me to this part, I kind of want to give you flowers...... Oh no, I've already done that. β
Yuka said, smiling, and walked towards Nalan Twilight, which was completely frozen. Three steps, this is the number of steps that the god of death took to come to Nalan Twilight, and now, she is done.
"It's over!"
Yuka raised her right fist and struck with all her might, slamming into Nalan Yu's head.
"yes, it's over!"
Incredible, unbelievable, incomprehensible.
When she heard this, she thought it was some kind of wonderful hallucination. It wasn't until she saw a smile on Nalan Twilight's face, that he moved again, nimbly dodged her fist, and then, stabbed out his right hand.
It's over, it's over, the fragrance of a punch is not possible to dodge at all. Under the crisis, her consciousness and perception have accelerated several times, and Nalan Twilight's attack looks like it is in slow motion, and of course, her own movements are even slower. In this long, powerless process of "being killed", the only thing that Yuxiang was thinking about was why, Nalan Twilight could still move.
This kind of thing has never happened, and the person who was made by her to make a flower of flesh and blood has only one way to die, and she can't save it if she wants to. Thousands, no, maybe 10,000 years, this is the first time she's missed.
Just one miss is enough to be fatal.
She watched as Nalan's fingertips pierced into her chest, as easily as a needle tip into a sponge. Blood splattered, pain tearing at her sanity in the slow-passing consciousness. Until the big picture was decided, she felt that time was speeding up again, and she was already in a pool of blood.
"It's over," Nalan licked his fingers, which were stained with the blood of the wind and fragrance, "but it wasn't me who was dropped!"
