Chapter Twenty-Five: Ambush

As the sun sets, darkness gradually envelops the sky as the sunlight hanging from the sky illumination disappears, but the city that should have been silent turns on the lights in a burst of laughter, dispelling the slowly approaching shadows.

And I woke up again in the midst of these nasty laughs, and when I opened my eyes, it was still the same black and white perspective, I hated this color, I remember my favorite color was blue, but what color is blue?

A dazzling red light suddenly appeared in my eyes, and I subconsciously tightened the dagger in my right hand, turned around and looked in the direction of the red glow.

Far away.

After roughly estimating the distance, I began to hide my figure, accompanied by a 'rustling' sound in my veins, my vision was covered in a turquoise color, and my body 'swam' in the air like a fish, as if the whole world had been reduced to an ocean, disappearing into a dark corner.

I don't know why I have this ability, just like I don't know why I involuntarily attack people who emit red light, because they killed me?

And what is death?

Like me, can't hear your own heartbeat and your veins are filled with wriggling sand?

I don't know, and I don't want to know, because my mind doesn't quite listen to me anymore, and I always feel like there's a person in my head who sometimes pushes me to do something, like to kill that 'stranger' I don't know now.

Near,

I felt a pang of satisfaction as I approached the man who was sitting alone in the square, his body glowing with a dazzling red glow.

For some reason, I love to see the panicked faces of my prey, and the sound of the pounding of the hammer in the darkness, which makes a feeling of joy rise up in me, and gives me a special sense of satiety.

Closer, I could even see the greater fear hidden in the man's single eye.

One-eyed!

At the sight of this eye, I instantly conjured up images that I had never seen before, a large, fanged mouth, and a one-eyed man smiling and cutting the ropes behind his back.

It's him.

There was an emotion in my mind that I had never felt before—anger—and I didn't have time to think about why this person sat in the square abruptly, as if waiting for me.

With his right hand, he stabbed the dagger at the one-eyed man, and the corners of his mouth hidden under the veil couldn't help but hook up a smile, which was a sign that anger was soothed, and yes, it seemed to be a sudden feeling.

Bang!

In the silence, a loud roar sounded, a gunshot to be exact, wrapped in a silver-gray bullet that rushed straight into my head, and while the bullet was whistling, my 'feeling' had alerted me that I must not be hit by this bullet.

Will die again!

As a last resort, I sliced the straight dagger sideways towards the bullet, and with a metal crash and a flash of sparks, I successfully blocked the shot.

Shaking my numb right hand, I looked in the direction of the bullet and saw three figures of men in black trench coats appear in the originally empty square. One of them was handsome, with brown pupils constricted to a point, holding an extremely exaggerated large pistol ready to shoot at him again, and beside him was a man with black hair and black eyes, whose face looked a little pale in the light of the light, and a strong man who rushed towards him like a rhinoceros, and held a two-meter long sword of the same height in his hand.

Just about to raise the idea of dodging, he saw the handsome man who raised the gun at him, the corners of his mouth opened and closed, and the silver gunfire flashed a black-gray light, and at the same time, a gold coin that kept rolling upwards rose in the hand of the pale-faced man on the side, and the corners of the two mouths murmured one after the other:

"Sluggish"

"Lucky"

A gray bullet rushed from the muzzle of the gun again, and suddenly exploded in front of me, turning into an invisible "giant net", I was about to quickly drag my body backwards to dodge, unbelievably my left foot slipped and almost fell, after I kept my balance, the invisible giant net had tied my body.

I could clearly feel that this huge net not only restrained my body, but even my thoughts were gradually bound by it, and for a moment I didn't even have time to implement the idea of raising up and dodging, and I could only watch as the long sword in the giant man's hand flashed a wisp of bright red towards me.

Am I going to have my own end?

Although I occasionally think about what real death is, when it comes, my heart is still so unwilling, especially when I look at the one-eyed with luck and joy.

No, my goal is not yet killed, and my revenge is not yet complete.

Suddenly, his rigid mind began to revive, and with his right hand, he threw the dagger at the statue in the center of the square with all the remaining strength, and in the giant's surprised expression, he pulled his body away from the chain attached to the dagger, dodging the giant's fatal blow.

There was no roar on the left that he expected, and the long sword in the giant man's hand was like cutting into a soft cake, directly sinking the blade under the hard stone slab.

Looking at the three people who were staring at me again, I withdrew the dagger with a shake of my right hand, and at the same time bent down to dodge a bullet, and began to sneak away and disappear into the eyes of everyone.

Two minutes passed, the stiffness on my body gradually receded, and I lurked around the three, no, four, although the man who threw the gold coin had inexplicably fallen once a minute ago while pulling out his pistol, but I still didn't make a move, after all, if you don't have enough patience, hunters can sometimes turn into prey.

As the five minutes passed, I noticed that the three people who had been vigilant had begun to become impatient, and one of the strong men said to the man who shot next to him, "Sean, haven't you found it yet?"

"Nope. ”

"It's not a way to drag it out like this. ”

"I'm thinking. ”

I smiled and continued to lurk in place, and as time went on, at the tenth minute, I found the man who had fired the gun crouched on the ground and began to fiddle with some magical objects, while the remaining two were holding a small pistol and the other was still holding a long sword on guard.

Soon after, just as I was about to make a move, an eerie prayer with an ominous message rang out in the empty square:

"Great Spirit Lord,

Shepherd of souls,

The End of Life,

Ruler of Death,

Thy devout believers pray to thee,

Pray for the help of your people. ”

As the low prayer fell, an unusual gray mist suddenly filled the square, and at the same time, a cyan figure appeared in the gray mist, this is a semi-bright woman with an unclear appearance, wearing a cyan classical long dress, exuding a magic that is not inferior to her third rank.

The banshee howled. ”

Before I could react, the handsome man covered his ears with the other two, and the man commanded the cyan figure,

"Ahh

The cyan figure opened its mouth and let out a high-pitched, piercing scream that pierced my soul, and I could no longer maintain my latent figure, so I could only cover my ears in pain, half-kneeling on the ground and struggling to support myself, fortunately, the three people who also covered their ears did not have the extra ability to attack themselves.

I don't know how long it took, the huge waves that were still churning in my mind gradually subsided as the screams dissipated, and when my vision was still blurred, there were only three men with unnaturally pale faces and blood oozing from their ears holding weapons at the figure of him, the ghost who screamed before was gone, and the boundless gray mist that permeated the square disappeared at the same time.

As if to find my spirit restored, the man who had summoned the ghost took out a strange whistle from his pocket, put it in his mouth and blew it, and in the midst of an ethereal, desolate whistle, I was horrified to find a blood-red strip of flesh wrapped around my right hand, which held the knife.

Subconsciously looking along the strip of meat, it was a monster in the shape of a treasure chest, with fangs full of disgusting fangs and a long tongue that wrapped around him.

Looking at the giant man who once again raised the long sword that flashed with blood-red light and swung it towards him, I let go of the dagger I was holding in my right hand, and was about to take the dagger with my left hand and stab it at my tongue to get out, but the movements of the three of them were a little faster, and the ordinary-looking man directly covered his right eye, and the only remaining left eye flashed with an inexplicable light, directly following my eyes into my crazy brain.

"Sleep. ”

Although he seemed to be affected by the crazy voice in my head, and he collapsed to the ground with a muffled grunt, his magic before he was unconscious still worked on me, and unlike the previous 'sluggishness' that only acted on his own body, his magic seemed to work directly on my soul.

The eyelids gradually became heavy, and the tranquility that suddenly emerged in my heart urged me to sleep, and the constant noise in my head had gradually subdued, and then a strange and familiar face appeared, a woman who could not see her appearance clearly, but looked at herself with a gentle face, holding a little girl with a double ponytail whip in her left hand, squinting blue eyes and smiling and beckoning to herself.
