Chapter Twenty-Eight: Everything Has a Price

The power of the Flying Sword Stream is undoubted, but it is not without limits, and only those who are strong and tall can fully control it. For example, someone with a strong physique like Gu Seijuro, or a person like Yingluo who is born without limits, otherwise, even if he is a swordsmanship genius like Kenshin and does not have a burly enough body, he will kill his own life while killing enemies, not to mention a young and drug-corrupted girl like Black Hitomi.

Kenshin swinging the sword is just consuming his lifespan, while the black pupil is overdrawing his life, and the reason why the powerful power is precious is because it needs to bear the price that ordinary people are difficult to pay!

"Is the black pupil okay?" Will hurriedly opened the door with a bandage on his head, and saw the black pupil sitting on the bed, half-squinting his eyes, and holding a small bag to keep sending snacks to his mouth even though he was about to fall asleep.

The two looked at each other for a second, then the black pupil bent down, held the snack bag in his arms, and said blankly, "I won't give it to you!"

Will suddenly felt like crying......

"Wei Jun, your injuries are not light, you should rest in bed!" Lan said, who was standing on the side of the bed.

"I'm fine, just some skin injuries. Will said as he saw that Estes was also in the room, and was stunned for a moment, and then lowered his head in shame: "I'm sorry, captain! ”

"It's good that you know!" Estes said lightly, "But I'm attracted by the bait, and I'm just as incompetent when I make a wrong judgment, so in the future, you and I will work together to make up for today's failure!"

Will nodded hurriedly: "Yes, please rest assured, I will definitely take this as a warning and never let the same thing happen again!"

"Very good!" Estes smiled slightly, turned to Lan and said, "Let's go, I think we should leave some space for some people." ”

Lan laughed, nodded, and walked out of the room with Estes, closing the door at the end.

Only Black Hitomi and Will were left in the room, and the atmosphere became a little awkward.

Black Hitomi and Will suddenly said at the same time, "Are your injuries okay?"

The two were stunned for a moment, and then said at the same time: "It's okay!"

After a brief moment of silence, the two burst into laughter.

Will touched his head and said a little embarrassed: "It's okay, just put it down, next time I won't let you fight alone!"

"Hmm!" Black Hitomi didn't say much, and she nodded, "Thank you." ”

"That...... Rest well, I won't bother you. By the way, leave the area you patrol to me, and promise not to let go of a thief!" Will from the countryside doesn't know how to swear a love story, he will only care about each other from the simplest place.

The door was gently shut, Will stood outside the room, his face was solemn, he could see that the condition of the black pupil was not good, and his face was even worse, and the girl in the flower season seemed to be about to wither, and she could die at any time.

"It's an enhanced drug for the assassination force, and it will corrode Hitomi's body, making her gradually weaken during the killing, and eventually reach her limit...... And now, Black Hitomi is on the edge of the limit!" Estes didn't go far, she stood outside the door, leaning against the wall with her hands clasped to her chest. The reason why he has been waiting for Will to come out is to tell the other party the truth, in Estes's cognition, concealment is meaningless, and only by facing it boldly can it usher in a turnaround.

Will clenched his fists, once again feeling his impotence, he gritted his teeth and asked in a dry voice, "Is it ...... Is there nothing that can be done?"

"Of course there is!" Estes said confidently: "I have already contacted the person in charge of the assassination team and asked the other party to send the antidote, on the other hand, I also asked the fashion doctor to put down his research and go all out to develop a drug that can treat the black pupil, even if this is not enough, isn't there still the Goddess Chamber of Commerce? We can use the imperial tools to trade with them in exchange for the health of the black pupil!"

Will was refreshed when he heard this, the captain is the captain, and he is so reliable at all times! He nodded gratefully: "If you need the imperial tool, you can use my 'noble chariot'......"

"No!" Estes refused without hesitation: "You must ensure sufficient combat power, you are worthless without the Emperor!"

"Then in case the assassination force and the fashion doctor's side fail, what kind of imperial tools do you want to use to trade with the Goddess Chamber of Commerce?"

"I will apply to the emperor for an imperial tool, for the sake of my merits for so many years, he will definitely not refuse!" Estes finished speaking, his tone changed: "It doesn't matter if it is rejected, there are a lot of night attacks on the emperor or something, defeat them, get the spoils of war openly, and then use it to save our comrades, isn't it reasonable? Will, for the sake of the black pupil, you will definitely win, right?"

Will looked grim and said loudly, "Yes, I will win!"

Estes curled the corners of his mouth: "We will win, don't forget, you are not alone!" As she spoke, several figures walked out from behind her, including Lan, Seleuc, Porus, and Doctor Fashion, and everyone smiled and nodded, which moved Will for a while: "Everyone ......"

"Black Pupil is not yours alone!" Seleuc blinked and said, "Destroy the villains and save your companions, this is justice!"

……

Compared with the optimism of the hunters, the night attack is gloomy and bleak.

Leonay was seriously injured, his red eyes were broken, and Lubbo was on the verge of death, but this ambush failed due to the appearance of the gods, not only did not achieve the results it deserved, but also lost his troops and almost completely wiped out.

Najeta once again realized that the conspiracy and trickery are meaningless in the face of absolute strength, and the divine tools must be used to fight against them, and in the face of the hunter troops with two divine tools, the night attack has no power to fight back, either obediently disband, leaving the imperial capital with the tail between them, or using the imperial tools to exchange the divine tools to obtain the same combat power!

The rain is getting heavier and heavier, and the good news is that the weather should be able to keep the pursuers out, but the bad news is that the temperature is getting colder, and in order to hide their whereabouts, the people who attack at night can't even light fires to keep warm.

What's even worse is Mayin, as a sniper, she was placed on guard, she has been poured by the cold rain for more than two hours, her body is already soaked, and her lips are blue, but she must persevere.

Tazmi and Susanoo are taking care of the wounded, and Leonai is still there, and she has a strong self-healing ability in her semi-beast, and even if she is left alone, she can gradually recover. The more serious is the red pupil, the broken arm caused her to lose a lot of blood, and the blood loss brought hypothermia, the red pupil was already unconscious, her lips were white, even if Tazmi covered her body with her clothes, the red pupil still kept shivering, if she didn't want to maintain her body temperature, the only thing waiting for the red pupil was death.

The most serious of Lubbick, although it was a back-bladed knife, was powerful enough to not only cut off the tail of his imperial cross, but also break his bones and shatter his internal organs, and in the face of this level of internal injury, even if he was immediately sent to the doctor, it would be nine deaths, let alone in this cramped and cold cabin.

This room was in the imperial capital, a secret hideout for the night raids, and Najeta did the opposite, deliberately lurking under the nose of Estes, but evading the search of the hunters.

"This can't go on, boss!" Tazmi said to Najeta as he went to the outer room, "Red Pupil and Lubbo must be sent to the hospital immediately, or they will die!"

Najeta held a cigarette in her mouth and said expressionlessly: "Don't worry, they are all battle-hardened warriors, and they will definitely be able to survive!"

"What if you can't hold on?" Tazmi couldn't stand Najeta's cold attitude any longer, and stepped forward to grab the other party's collar and asked angrily, "Are we going to watch our companions die?"

"Then what do you say?" Najeta said coldly, "Send them to the hospital and then be found by the hunters, and then take more people?"

"Yes...... But isn't a night raid a righteous army? What kind of justice is it to sit back and watch your comrades die and be indifferent!"

"Justice has a price, Tazmi!" Najeta snapped: "There is no bloodless revolution, new nations are always built on the corpses of countless people!"

"Don't want that kind of new country!" shouted Tazmi, "what is the difference between such a revolutionary army and an empire that despises life and does not pay attention to justice!"

"You're too emotional, don't say such naΓ―ve things again!"

"This is not naΓ―ve! You are too ruthless to give up the present for the sake of the future!"

"I'm ......" Before Najeta could finish speaking, Susanoo came out of the room and said with a solemn face: "Lubbo is awake, he wants to see you! ”

Tazmi let go of her hands in shock, Najeta dropped the cigarette in her mouth, straightened her collar, sighed softly, and said lightly, "I know." ”

……

Najeta sat on the edge of the bed, and Lubbock rested on her lap, a look of pleasure on her face, though her face was lifeless.

"You know?" said Lubbo suddenly, "I liked you from the first time I saw you." ”

"Yes, I know!"

"I joined the revolutionary army and joined the night raid, not for any new country, but actually to get close to you!"

"Well, I know that too!"

"In that case, aren't you going to say something to me?"

Najeta was silent.

Lubbo said helplessly: "Ha, what a ruthless woman!" As he spoke, he changed his tone again, revealing a satisfied smile: "But I am really happy to die in your arms!"

"Najeta......

"Well, I'm here!"

"When I die, use my imperial tools to trade with the Goddess Chamber of Commerce. We have to be more powerful in order to win!"

β€œβ€¦β€¦ I will. ”

"That's good!" Lubbo closed his eyes, "Brandt must be lonely in hell alone, and I should go down to be with him." Don't rush to come to us, if you meet a good man like me again, you can marry, at least become a grandmother...... Again...... Get down...... ...... with us"

Lubbo closed his eyes and fell asleep quietly, a tear falling down his face and slipping from the corner of his eye.

Najeta gently rested Lubbock's head on the pillow, stood up, lit a cigarette, and took a deep breath to exhale a large puff of smoke.

"It's a pity that no one will like a cold woman like me except you idiot!" Najeta said softly as she caressed Lubbock's face with her hand, "Now...... Rest well, Lubbock. ”
