Chapter 66: The Long Sword V

Sulfona shuffled her heavy feet into the woods, and she lowered her sword to the ground while leaning against the tree. After www.biquge.info battle, Sulfona felt an unspeakable ache and pain all over her body. Although she pulled out her big sword just now to release the demon power and tortured those demons, this also had strong side effects. Although it has been nearly a year since she became an official greatsword, Sulfur has still not been able to solve her physical problems. In her body, the demonic power is still an intertwined mess. The forcible use of demonic power is like squeezing the tissues of the body and squeezing out the bodily fluids.

After a few moments, Sulfona's breathing finally calmed down. She just wanted to just lean against the tree and never think about anything else. Demons, warriors, Tifa, Mr. Sword - all of these things are thrown aside. At this moment, Sulfona's afterglow suddenly saw a dark shadow at her feet. Sulfur subconsciously swept around with a sense of blindness. Without invoking the demonic power in her body, Sulfona's blindness could not accurately perceive the demonic energy, but it was still easy to detect the surrounding objects. Sulfona "saw" a man with a hat leaning against a small tree nearby.

"The reaction is still so responsive, I thought you were dead. ”

"If you can't find the agility of a demon, it's meaningless to a warrior. ”

Sulfona sighed, she was used to the elusiveness of this agent named "Lulu". It was also Lulu who deliberately exposed his shadow to Sulfona's sight just now, so as to remind Sulfur that he had come. If it appears suddenly, it will inevitably be a little embarrassing for both parties. Noticing this and addressing it may be the gentleness of this man. Sulfura couldn't help but think back to what Lulu had just said.

"Dead ...... How miserable do I look now?"

Sulfona suddenly remembered the experience of meeting Simona as a child. At that time, Simona was leaning against a big tree like this, and at first glance she thought she was a dead person. Sulfona remembers her eating raw animal offal. Now Sulfona can even better understand Simona's situation at that time, she must also be struggling with the demons in her body. That taste is unbearable for normal people, and they just want to die.

"It's not as good as the demons you've killed, but ......," Lulu said, shaking his head, "you've made a mess of the scene again. Blood, flesh, and fat, were pasted on the ground. Do you know how much effort I put into dealing with the aftermath? Among the fighters, someone has already linked you to that weird-tempered No.3, and you're both bloody. ”

Sulfona was silent for a moment, then sighed.

"I'm sorry. ”

"It's completely incomprehensible, you, who are so docile with your head down now, are the ones who just committed the tyrannical acts. Lulu touched his forehead and said, "Although the other fighters will be more or less different from normal when fighting, your state is obviously not normal. ”

"I ...... I tried my best to suppress myself. Sulfona grabbed the big sword wrapped in the cloth in her hand, and the joints of her hands began to turn white, "However, this time the demon is very powerful. You didn't tell me that there are so many demons here, and that these demons seem to be very smart, that everyone is not weak and that they will attack together. I can't defeat them if I don't draw my sword. ”

Ruru shifted his gaze from Sulfona to her sword. The sword mark on the hilt of the sword looked somewhat new and glowed with gold. Sulfona's greatsword had been broken once before, but Sulfona was reluctant to replace it with a new one. Even though she had only been sealed for a day, Sulfona seemed to have developed a special affection for her sword seal. So it's up to the swordsmith to repair her greatsword.

"Do you use 'draw the sword' and 'collect the sword' as a sign of your personality switching?" Lulu looked at Sulfona's sword mark thoughtfully, "completely separating his usually gentle and generous personality from his tyrannical personality as a warrior. I think that's a clever thing to do. ”

"However, it is getting harder and harder for me to control myself. Sulfona shook her head, "Recently, I've been questioning the value of my existence again. I'm so weak and so ugly, it's a complete burden to my status as a warrior. If I hadn't drawn my sword, I might not have been able to detect the demon standing in front of me. ”

"I think you're pretty good. Lulu shrugged, "The fighters I've been in contact with before are the kind of people who don't listen to people, have an inexplicable confrontation with our agents, and do things arrogantly and arrogantly, or else they are cold. Since taking over your agency work, my perennial mental stomach pain has also been relieved a lot. ”

"Is that a consolation?" said Sulfura with a wry smile.

"No, that's a compliment. ”

"But the organization must have thought I was in trouble. ”

It's been a year since she became an official warrior, and she has a certain understanding of what it means to be a warrior. She knows that the organization likes quiet, obedient fighters. A fighter like her who is mentally unstable and will affect the image of the organization on the scene of the crusade must be the so-called "problem". Judging from the various tragic experiences of trainees, the organization is often ruthless in dealing with "problems".

"You don't have to think about it. Now that the organization of the war in the north is tight, every warrior is a valuable force. Lulu patted Sulfura on the shoulder and said, "Besides, we haven't found any trace of Tifa yet, and it's been a year since she defected, so I think some people need to be laid off." Anyway, I think the organization still needs you, in that sense. ”

"I don't think I'm anything compared to Tifa's ideals. Sulfur smiled wryly and shook her head, "Also, you told me the idea of the organization so bluntly, is that really good?"

"It's better not to tell some of the wrongs, I can be your agent. ”

After Lulu finished speaking, he laughed heartily. Sulfona stared at each other blankly, she didn't expect that there were people in the dark and oppressive organization who could laugh so freely. Although Sulfura still didn't trust Lulu much, she still laughed along with Lulu. This man has a charm that makes people feel good. Sulfona then restrained her smile and stood up.

"So let's get down to business. Since you're here, there must be a new task for me. ”

"Definitely. Lulu nodded, then lowered the brim of his hat slightly, "This mission is to solve the problem you encountered. There are more demons lurking in the town this time than in our intelligence, and their strength is much stronger than ordinary demons, so you need to investigate this issue. Generally speaking, it is impossible for a warrior of your rank to encounter four demons at once. Your precinct is No.45 and is classified as a safe area in the organization. ”

"But it's not safe......"

"It's not far from the Holy City, and the vicinity of the Holy City is the jurisdiction of the 'Demon Slaying Sword', so the demons should have been settled by her. It's a general idea, but recently a large number of active demons have suddenly appeared near the Holy City. ”

"She's the No.2 warrior, and I've heard that she's the one who slays the most demons......" Sulfura said with a frown.

"She's the kind of person who doesn't listen to our agents very much. Lulu shrugged, "Just now we found out that she was in the Holy City and exchanged information with our spies, saying that there was something to be investigated, so let's not disturb her." ”

"It seems to be a very willful senior. Sulfona shrugged, "So I'm going to investigate the cause of the demon's sudden activity on her behalf?"

"This task is a bit heavy for you, if you need help, go to the Holy City to find the Demon Slayer. The spies there will find a way to get you in touch with the Demon Slayer. "It's a good opportunity for you, too." It is said that the Demon Slaying Sword's demonic power perception is also very weak, and perhaps she is in a similar situation to you. She might be able to help you. ”

Sulfona nodded, she had heard rumors of the Demon Slaying Sword. Because she does not have a strong sense of demonic power, she always wears a red robe, attracting demons and humans with bad intentions to attack her. And this rumor is best told by Tifa to Sulfona.

"Alright, I wish you all the best in your mission. ”

After saying that, Lulu was about to leave, but was stopped by Sulfona.

"Mr. Luru......" Sulfura hesitated for a long time, and finally asked, "Is there any news from Tifa lately?"

"I haven't heard the news of large-scale torture and killing of human beings, and the news of large-scale torture of demons is only you. She seemed to have disappeared completely. After speaking, Lulu looked at Sulfona's face and continued, "However, I have some gossip that has not been verified. ”

"Grapevine?"

"That's right. Rulu shrugged, "Someone has seen someone who looks like her near the Holy City. ”

Sulfona was silent.

"Don't do that, it's just gossip. I don't know if it's true or not. If that's true, I'm interested in how she ended up in the Holy City. As far as I know, she doesn't have any secret medicine in her hand. In short, you can use these secret elixirs to infiltrate the Holy City. ”

Sulfura took the secret medicine in a daze, and she suddenly felt that there was something special in Lulu's words.

"Why do you give it to me now? Won't we meet again?"

"Don't be nervous, don't be nervous. Lulu shrugged, "The war in the north is tight, I'm afraid I'm going to have to go there recently." In fact, No.3 and several of her apprentices have been supporting the scene there, and now No.3's life and death are unknown, but I'm afraid that something has changed......"

"Wait a minute. Sulfona frowned, "Didn't Virginia go north?"

"Well...... Lulu pondered for a moment, then finally spoke, "We haven't heard from her for half a year. Investigating this matter was also one of the purposes of my trip to the North. ”

"Isn't she ......?"

Sulfona's eyes widened. Virginia is the No.1 among the current fighters. If she had died, the already bad situation of the organization would have been even worse.

"Fortunately, the demons in the north have also been silent for a long time, so I'm going to investigate. Your task now is to investigate why there are so many active demons without thinking too much. I believe you don't need me to do it well. Lulu straightened his hat and smiled at Sulfona, "Anyway, just look at the situation, and if you encounter trouble that can't be solved, go to the Demon Slayer Sword." ”

Luru waved his hand at Sulfura and disappeared into the bushes, leaving only a warrior standing in the setting sun. Sulfona silently said to herself.

"It depends on the situation, if you encounter trouble that can't be solved, go to the demon slaying sword senior. ”

The husky voice echoed through the fallen trees, and she sighed as she looked at her sword, which seemed to be pulsating.

"It's already difficult for me. ”
