Chapter 94: The Lady Who Sighs (46)
After many days of traveling, we finally came to the coast.
The sea, the sea that has not been seen for a long time. Although in our world of the dead, it is also bordered by the sea on both sides. But for some reason, the color of the water in our territory is pure black. It is exactly the same color as our land, mountains, and forests. It's so black that there's no life. But who can blame for this, after all, we are a lifeless race.
When I was young, when our Elven Empire still occupied the entire continent, I was ignorant and came to the coast. And my kindred, I mean, the elves have been to the beach like this more than once. Stepping on the bright yellow sand, quietly blowing the sea breeze, lying on the beach and enjoying the sun with our people, laughing and playing in the sea.
But this has been thousands of years old. After so many years, those people who used to laugh and play with them have now completely blended with the soil and can no longer be found. And since I became an undead, I have never been to the sea, not even the ocean of our realm.
And now, I'm finally here, finally here.
Today, there are still so many people who have come to the sea with me. But it's completely different from what I felt before.
Breitsoe has left our ranks and we don't know where he's going. I don't know if he will return to the apostolic world to continue to hide his identity or go somewhere else. Of course, I don't care. No one like Breitsoe will be his opponent wherever he goes, and I even think that even if he comes face to face with the mourner, Breitsoe will not be left behind in the slightest.
Rebek had also left after a few days with us. On the morning of leaving, Rebec suddenly flew up to my horse and picked me up. It made me shocked and angry. "What are you doing here?"
Rebecc's thick snort came from behind me, "What, do you think I'm not doing well now?"
I tried my best as if Hi didn't break free from his embrace, so I had to say helplessly: "You forced me to hold me against my will, do you think such a thing is romantic?"
Sure enough, Rebek let go of his hand from behind me and returned to the ground. "You, you're still so stubborn. I'm leaving today, can't I let you hold it a little longer?"
What? Are you leaving? There was a sudden sense of loss in my heart. "You didn't say ... I thought you could stay a little longer. “
Rebek immediately burst out laughing, he looked at me and laughed, "Well, you were keeping me." Since you want to keep me so sincerely, then I'm 。。。。。。 ”
I immediately interrupted, "Then you better go." ”
Rebecc's smile suddenly became a little embarrassed, he touched his bald head, and said with a smile: "I, I thought you wanted to keep me." Actually, I want to stay too, but there are still things to deal with in my own territory, and recently I suddenly sensed a presence. ”
I immediately became curious and asked, "What kind of existence makes you feel a little tricky?"
"Tricky? When did I say it's tricky. He quietly mentioned the Tiger King, who had recovered his health, and grinned: "You say, do you feel that this king is troublesome now?"
However, the Tiger King didn't cooperate with him, but he didn't say angrily: "How do you know, Lone is not a roundworm in your stomach." ”
"Huh?" Rebeke snorted, not expecting that this tiger king was not afraid of him now, and suddenly became a little angry: "Worm, you dare to talk to this king like this?"
The Tiger King was still not angry: "Lone can be said to have died once now, and now even if you kill Lone, Lone has nothing to say." With them as lonely friends, lonely has never been in vain in this life. ”
Not only did Rebek not make a move, but laughed happily: "Very good, Tiger King, this king just wants you to have such an attitude." Okay, this king won't call you any worm, you deserve to be a king, a king like me. After I leave, you must protect my woman, if you encounter the same enemy this time, you still use the old way, I will be the first to come. “
The Tiger King looked at him and nodded. Even I felt a strong smell of sympathy erupt between them.
Now, before you know it, Rebeck has been gone for a few days. But the strange thing is that I think about him every day. Even if I came to the beach now, I didn't feel very happy, just quietly watching Banksy and Hua Siqi swimming in the sea, even the Tiger King was eager to try, but he still maintained his kingly demeanor, just lying on the ground and pretending to sleep.
It's just that my mind is not on theirs at all, just thinking about someone who shouldn't be thought of in my heart.
Suddenly, Banks, who was playing with Hua Siqi at this time, suddenly fell into the seawater, which startled Hua Siqi, and she quickly pulled Banks, who couldn't stop fluttering in the sea, up and helped her to the shore. And on the shore, I was already waiting there. So she and I hurriedly put Banksy on the beach to urgently check on her condition.
However, I am only good at killing, and I have no experience in how to save people. And Hua Siqi is really not as good as me, this is the first time she has come to the beach, so naturally she doesn't know how to treat drowning. But the only one of us who is good at healing is now lying unconscious on the beach. Just when the two of us were at a loss for what to do about it, the Tiger King on the side came over and said lightly: "You get out of the way, Lone will treat drowning." “
I immediately wondered, how can a tiger be healed? "Aren't you a tiger?
The Tiger King gave me a meaningful smile: "Because I'm afraid of water." “
Hahaha, it's simply one of the funniest jokes I've come across. A tiger who claims to be the king is afraid of water. But then again, if he wasn't afraid of water, he probably wouldn't know how to treat drowning, and his feelings were all because of himself. However, it was precisely because he could heal that Banksy woke up after a few tens of seconds.
While we were rejoicing at Banks' awakening, the first thing Banks said made me feel extremely low: "Ma'am, Redding is dead. “
Ah, dead. In the end, he died. From the time Reading left us, I actually knew very well that Reading was going to be there to be no return. But I didn't expect that it had actually happened. During this time, I had hoped more than once that the incompetent emperor of the country would be able to accomplish such a thing alone, but this time, I was disappointed. Perhaps the old emperor also knew that Reading might be the only minister with a certain status who was still loyal to him like Redding, but he still did not choose to save the life of the only minister who supported him.
"Oh?" I replied softly, "How do you know?" “
Banksy's face was so pale that it made her laughter seem so sickly: "When Reading left, I quietly left a mark of my life on his body, which can help him heal some minor illnesses and strengthen his physique. And if he dies, I'll feel it. However, because this life mark consumed half of my life force, I lost half of my life after Reading died. I had always been mentally prepared, but I didn't expect it to come so soon. So, now it looks like my life is short. “
How could a mere human being have such an incredible ability to transfer his life force to someone else like this?" "You, you're not kidding, are you?"
Banksy shook his head weakly, "No, I'm not lying. I learned this ability after I came into contact with the messenger of the gods, but I never used it because I was afraid that something would happen. But now that it's happened, there's no point in saying anything now. I'm sorry, ma'am, I don't think I'll be able to stay with you anymore. “
For the next few days, Banksys was very weak. No matter how much treatment is treated, there is no improvement. The Tiger King once whispered to me: "Undead, no matter how much treatment is done in a human like this human condition, it will not be of any use, although Lone does not know how this human uses to transfer his life to another human being." But Lone has already eaten too much of the life force of other existences in his life, so he knows very well that once the life force is consumed, then there is basically no hope for that existence. If you are really good to her, let him live happily for the rest of his life, instead of suffering with us. ”
I was startled and subconsciously asked, "What do you mean?" ”
"Lone's meaning is very simple, either we will kill this human now, or take her to a quiet place where she can spend the rest of her life in peace. ”
"Is there really no other way? You have stolen so much life force from existence before, can't you transfer a little bit of your own excess life force to her? I believe that so much life force is just a drop in the bucket for you? Why should you... ”
The Tiger King interrupted me and sneered at me, "Undead, you should think about it when you talk about it. I think you, as an undead, should be more aware of the impact on a human being, especially a female human being, if she absorbs someone else's life force without authorization?"
I was stunned, I really didn't know about such a question, because I really hadn't been exposed to such a thing.
"If Lone gives her a little bit of my life force, then she will become a monster who will only absorb the life force of others in the future.
"But why didn't you become a monster?"
The Tiger King grinned: "How can you compare Lone to a monster? Compared to any monster, Lone is an existence that is one or two grades higher." Moreover, Lone has already eaten countless creatures like dragons, how can Lone's physique become a monster?" After speaking, the Tiger King pointed to Banks, who was supported by Hua Siqi, with his paws, and continued: "But what about her? Has she ever had the experience of being like Lone? Has she ever eaten dragon meat like Lone? Does she have the same physique as me? No! So, Lone is still safe and sound, but she has only become a monster. Of course, if you still insist on doing this, Lone has no objection. Lone can casually let her change from her current illness to immortality, but an immortal monster, is that what you see?"
I was silent. I believe that even if Banksy were to die, he would never want to be such a monster. "Alright then, Tiger King. We told her the truth and saw what she would choose. ”
When we told Banks all the truth, unsurprisingly, Banks smiled weakly at us, "Thank you, ma'am, thank you for giving me such a choice. But, actually, I think you already know what kind of choice I will make. I've had enough of the ups and downs of my life in this half of my life, so I really want to get through the rest of my life in peace. Here, I know it very well, on the opposite coast, there is a very small island, and I think I can go and live there. ”
"But how are we going to get there now?"
Banksy laughed again, the first time in the long time I've known her that she'd laughed so many times in a day: "Ma'am, you stupid, have you forgotten what we're here for?"
Purpose, oh, I suddenly remembered. Didn't we come this time to find the group of thieves who had been roaming the seas? But can you hold on at sea? because, I've heard, at sea, you get seasick. “
"Seasickness?" Banksy looked at me narrowly and chuckled, "Ma'am, don't you know? Seasickness varies according to the physique. Some people will not get seasick even if they have been on the ship all their lives, but some people will vomit to death as soon as they get on the boat. What's even more pitiful is those who are obviously seasick but have to use the boat as their only means of transportation, which is even more pitiful, haha. But don't worry, ma'am, I've been on a boat before, and I will never get seasick. Now, let's wait for that legend. “
