Chapter 30: The Sword Embryo X
The girls chatted and waited in the hallway. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info It took an hour or so for them to be informed that the integration had begun. The girls had apparently gotten the gossip from their own sources, but they weren't too surprised. They silently poured out of the hallway, following the man in black. During this time, Sulfona saw Jaslin, whose chin was just raised. Jaslin glanced coldly at Sulfona.
"After the fusion, I'm looking forward to fighting you. ā
āā¦ā¦ā
"You haven't lost track of time, have you? I'll be waiting for you for two weeks after the fusion. ā
Sulfona nodded stiffly, in response. Jaslin shook her hair and walked away, but Sulfur was thinking about how to explain it to Tifa. Unexpectedly, Tifa looked at Jaslin and Sulfona, but didn't ask anything. Sulfona felt that with Tifa's intelligence, she might have seen something. Now she doesn't ask Sulfur, maybe it's also a kind of thoughtfulness. Sulfona felt both a little happy and a little disappointed. The complex transformation of feelings is difficult to describe in words.
In the distance, horse-drawn carriages approached from the mountain paths. At first, she thought that it might be the instruments and tools necessary for the transportation of fusion, but she didn't expect that the last thing to get out of the car was a little girl who slept in a daze. The children were crammed into the carriage, swaying with the ups and downs of the mountain paths, long exhausted. As soon as they got out of the car, they collapsed to the ground, and the man in black picked them up. Sulfur looked at the little girls in a trance, and Tifa looked at Sulfur's appearance and shrugged her shoulders.
"It seems that a new batch of trainees has arrived. The organization has already begun to replenish new blood in advance. ā
"That's ......" After listening to Tifa's words, Sulfona felt that the current form of the organization was indeed not optimistic, "Did we come here like this back then?"
"Didn't you throw up me when you got out of the car? you forgot?" said Tifa angrily.
Sulfona touched her head and smiled, she didn't remember it for a long time.
The girls were taken by the men in black to a building in the mountains. It had always been a forbidden place, and none of the trainees knew what was inside. Soon, everyone was separated by the black-clad people, and everyone was locked up in a dark hut. Sulfona sat in the hut and suddenly felt unreal. A few years ago, she was a spoiled child on her parents' knees, and now she is about to fuse the flesh and blood of demons to become a warrior. She examined herself in the dark, wondering if she was really ready to give up her human identity, or what she would encounter when she became a warrior. Sulfona reached out and grabbed the hat on her head, which was the straw hat that Sulfona's father had given to Sulfona. Now that things are wrong, Sulfona's father should have died at the hands of demons. Sulfona bit her lip in confusion, she wanted to avenge her parents and the people of the town.
Just as Sulfona was thinking this, suddenly the door was pushed open, and a man in black entered. The man in black didn't know what he had done, and a dim light came out of the corner of the room. He grabbed Sulfona's hand, and pulled out a strange tube. The material of the thing looked a little like ice crystals, but it didn't seem to melt in a person's hand. The tube contained a pale blue liquid and a thin needle at the bottom of the tube. Sulfona had seen her mother's needle sewing clothes before, but it was always slightly crooked. It was the first time she had seen such a straight needle. The man in black walked over with a needle, Sulfona, and grabbed Sulfona's arm. It immediately became clear to her that she was going to stick the thing into her arm.
"Don't resist, it's part of integration. ā
The man in black could see that the muscles on Sulfona's body were tense, and hurriedly said. His voice was a little old, and he should be between forty and fifty years old. During the few years that Sulfura was a trainee in the organization, she had seen many men in black. They move through the organization in silence, as if they have important matters to attend to at all times. Sulfona had never seen these men in black speak, and she thought they were mute.
"This potion ......," said the man in black, shaking the tube in his hand, "will make it easier for you to survive the fusion process." Fusion is the transplantation of a piece of demonic flesh into your stomach. By the time you regain consciousness, you should feel an excruciating pain coming from your abdomen. There are also some strange side effects that come with it. The side effects vary from person to person and I can't describe them to you. In short, you have to exercise restraint until these abnormalities are gone. ā
The man in black explained to Sulfur in a flat tone. His words are very smooth, and he should have done this kind of explanation often. Sulfona froze for a moment, then let the cold needle tip stick into her arm. The "potion" in the tube was injected into Sulfona's arm along the needle, and Sulfona only felt a cold heat sweep through her body.
"If you don't survive the side effects, you're going to be a demon. Please be careful. ā
The man in black said, then bowed deeply to Sulfona. Sulfona only felt that her body was light and her head had become groggy. The shadow of the man in black flickered in front of her for a while, and then he turned and went out. For some reason, in the dim light, the figure of the man in black actually overlapped with Sulfona's father. Sulfona also knew that it was just an illusion, but she thought of the reminder that the man in black had reminded her, and she involuntarily opened her mouth and overflowed in a low voice.
"Thank you......"
The man in black stopped.
"Strange...... Intravenous anesthesia works quickly, and hallucinogens are added for insurance. ā
The man in black walked over again. Sulfona's eyes couldn't be opened, but she could feel the man in black approaching her. Although she couldn't see or hear, she somehow felt it. Before, in the dark night, Sulfur could also fight demons, and then she also saw Doris's wounds clearly in the evening. Sulfona had always thought that her night vision was very good. But now she can't see, she can't hear, but she can still perceive her surroundings - it's as if she had developed a new kind of perception.
The man in black looked at Sulfur carefully, and then said something. Although she couldn't hear it, she understood what the other party meant.
"I don't know why you're still awake, but I hope you're asleep soon. Because the next thing is that you'd better fall asleep. I'm not an executor of fusion, I'm just an assistant in the organization that isn't staffed enough. Recently, the power of the organization has shrunk a lot, and you have heard of it. So I also had to work part-time to help you with anesthesia. I don't know if you can hear me, but you're the only one out of so many trainees who says thank you to me. ā
Sulfona felt her consciousness fall into a dark pool. But she insisted on staying awake, knowing that the man in black might tell her something important.
"Since you can still stay awake, listen to my complaints. I'm not half-you, and I don't have any special powers. I am supposed to be a servant of the Order, and my character is to build a greatsword for the Order, and then use it for your warriors. My father did it, my grandfather did it, and so did my son. Our family has been in this organization for many years. I'm fine, I don't want anything, but my son never settles. I think maybe we'll break off in his hands, but that's not something I'm a half-buried person to care about. ā
Sulfona was stunned. Of course, she knew that the training sword she used in her hand and the big sword used by the warrior were all made by others. But she never paid attention to who had provided them with the swords.
"I'm not young, and I've been in the organization for a long time. After working for a long time, I have learned a lot of strange things. Some people call this the truth, but I have no interest in the truth. My only pursuit is to make a good sword. The man in black shook his head as he spoke, "I've built countless swords, most of them are created by my apprentices, and then I process them. I've done a lot of repetitive work, and now I just want to build a sword from scratch that I can accept. But I can't. ā
The man in black sighed.
"The sword is just a tool, and the exact way the sword is made depends on the person who uses it. I haven't been able to make a satisfactory sword all these years, perhaps because I haven't met the right person. There are countless people in this world who are extremely skilled in swordsmanship. And now the strongest swordsmanship masters are probably all in this organization. These masters are all legends of a generation, and each of them has their own swordsmanship, and they can all be a generation of grandmasters of the founding sect. But I always felt that they were missing something. I thought about it for a long, long time, and finally I understood. Son, have you ever heard of the 'Art of Slaying Dragons'?"
The man in black paused as he spoke, as if waiting for Sulfona's answer. Sulfona racked her brains, not knowing what the man in black was talking about. And now she can't move at all, so naturally she can't answer. The man in black didn't get angry when he saw that Sulfura didn't react, and he didn't know.
"The so-called dragon slaying technique is a spell that can kill dragons. The so-called dragon is a legendary and powerful creature. It is rumored to be able to call the wind and rain, swallow the clouds and spit out fog. I've heard that the world we live in is only a small part of the real world, and that there are other continents beyond the vast sea. There may be dragons on the continent over there, but there are no dragons on our continent. But once upon a time a man found an ancient book that told about the magic of slaying dragons. It took a lot of effort for this man to finally practice the spell, and when he wanted to show his strength, he found that he couldn't find a dragon for him to kill. And the spell has become useless. ā
"Those swordsmen are all legends, but they were born in a bad era. The Abyss and the Order confront each other and keep the peace, and my sword is just a dragon-slaying technique, useless at all. However, if the times are really troubled, if those peerless masters hold my sword, they will definitely be able to achieve great things. The so-called sword was not forged by a forger like me. After it is crafted, the sword has to follow his master to kill the enemy. A sword is not just about how sharp it is, but also how invincible it is to kill an enemy. Without merit, this piece is just scrap metal. ā
"I waited for many years, and I thought I wouldn't be able to forge the sword I wanted. But the current situation gives me hope. I know some of the organization's secrets, but I'm not at the top of the organization, so I can see it. The turmoil is about to begin...... Because ......"
As the man in black spoke, Sulfona felt her consciousness become more and more blurred. The man in black couldn't hear the rest of the words, and she vaguely felt that she was being pushed to another place by a group of people. There were a pair of cold hands groping around his body. It felt like being blown by the icy night breeze. It was as if she had returned to that night when she was a child. She confronted the demons. Both sides want to kill the other. Sulfona struggled to use "death and no life", and with her speed increased to the extreme, she skipped in front of the demon. One of the demons' eyes was blind, and the other was cringinge. Its golden pupils were wide open, and Sulfona saw her own eyes in them. His eyes were dyed golden because of the demon's eyes. The face was hideous, and it seemed to be about to transform into another person's face, and let out a sharp roar. It looks like a demon even more like a demon.
Sulfona and the demon staggered, and her consciousness seemed to fly into the demon's body. She felt something hit her abdomen, and a heart-rending pain came from her abdomen. The girl with the log in her hand laughed, her figure looked extremely weird. Sulfona tried to reach out and remove the foreign object from her abdomen, but fell out of bed.
