Chapter 24 Timeline
The moment Xuanyu unveiled the mask, Lucia's eyes were stung by the bright light. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info This light does not come from the sun, but from the person standing in front of him. A slender figure with a strong glow all over his body. His black hair fell to the ground, and his black eyes were like the depths of the sea, mysterious and seductive. Pale as snow, soft and smooth. What a beauty! However, the only fly in the ointment is that his lips are also so white that there is no blood, which makes him less charming than seven points and three points more sickly.
"Yes...... Angels? Lucia said weakly, "Are you here to take me to heaven?" ”
"I'm afraid I'll disappoint you." Xuanyu smiled, "You still have to stay in the human world for a while longer." ”
"I'm not dead?" After listening to Xuanyu's words, Lucia remembered that she was indeed not dead, and she looked around, blue sky, white clouds, green trees, and ...... A bunch of crazy people, "...... they?" ”
"A gift from a friend, but it's almost time-lapse." Xuanyu said lightly, "I'll save you, come with me." ”
The two sentences are very flat, and the tone does not have many ups and downs. But hearing Lucia's ears can make her heart surge, a bitter and irrepressible grievance instantly turned into tears to vent out, but as soon as the tears reached her eyes, they were suppressed by Lucia, she remembered that she once swore that she would not shed a single tear in this life.
Lucia's change was in Xuanyu's eyes, he didn't ask, he wasn't interested. For Xuanyu, the relationship with Lucia started with a mistake, and now it can only be wrong. He didn't want to have much to do with humans, at least he wanted to maintain his previous way of life, but with Lucia, that would be a difficult thing to do.
Lucia didn't cry after all, and Xuanyu untied the ropes that bound her. She collapsed in front of the gallows, rubbing her slightly reddened arms, and looked up at Xuanyu, at this time, the question that had drawn a hundred question marks in her heart came out: "You...... Who the hell is it? ”
Perhaps anticipating Lucia's question, Xuanyu turned her head to look at the five prisoners tied to Lucia's side, although they were also wearing masks like Lucia just now, their ears could still hear it, and they were tilting their heads to this side, apparently eavesdropping on their conversation.
Death is on the verge of death, and there is still this idleness, Xuanyu sneered. He knew that although the five people who were going to talk about it next might not understand it at all, he was still very taboo about someone disturbing him, and even the gang of "crazy people" behind him were too noisy, besides, if he pinched his fingers, the magic of Jeratylos was about to fail.
Xuanyu bent down and held out a hand to Lucia, helping her up as she said, "I'll take you to a good place." ”
At the moment when Lucia stood up, with a snap of Xuanyu's fingers, she heard the sound of "whirring" wind piercing her ears, and as soon as she stood firmly, she had already noticed the changes that had taken place around her.
Everything was quiet, she looked around curiously, including the deranged "madmen", all of them were still, the air was flowing like ripples of water, her feet were like stepping on cotton, and when she took a step, there would be ripples spreading out in circles under her feet.
"What is this?" Having never seen such a landscape, Lucia didn't know how the other party did it.
"It's just a 'point in time'. In this world, only the two of us are real. The tone of the speaker was calm, but the obedient one was extremely excited.
At the time node, the great magician Montfellow mentioned in his book "Magical Space" that he tried his whole life to open the door to the time node, but he never succeeded. It wasn't until the last years of his life that he finally had the opportunity to enter this magical space, but only to step into it, rushing by like a traveler. On the other hand, the young man in front of him, who is only twenty-five or six years old, can not only enter and exit the "time node", but also looks so relaxed. The most important thing is that he was able to bring himself into this space, which is beyond the reach of human beings!
For a moment, the amount of information was too much, Lucia stared at Xuanyu with her mouth open, nodded slightly, and then asked the question again: "So...... Who are you? ”
"My name is Xuanyu, and I am from an ancient country ......in the East," Xuanyu smiled slightly, "I am your master." ”
Lucia licked her lips and made a voice from her throat: "Get out!" ”
This kind of joke makes Lucia very angry, even if the other party is her savior, she can't accept this statement. Because in the Egrem language, this phrase is often interpreted as "a matter between a man and a woman", and it makes her feel embarrassed to say such things to a teenage girl.
Looking at Lucia, whose face was slightly flushed, Xuanyu inadvertently added another knife: "I mean, we are going to live together as a community. ”
If it weren't for someone who really knew Xuanyu, I'm afraid that he would have already characterized his two sentences as a teasing at this time, and it was reasonable for Lucia to misunderstand. She looked up and took a closer look at Xuanyu's face, which was much taller than her.
"Even though you're handsome, you're not my type, that, I prefer older ......"
"What do you want?" Xuanyu didn't care about Lucia's attitude, but said lightly: "After that, I will entrust this original to you and Pan, it is not appropriate to stay here for a long time, now follow me first." ”
"Wait, you saved me, what about them?" The "they" in Lucia's mouth refers to the people of the wild wolf.
Xuanyu didn't even look at them: "I'm sorry, they're none of my business, I just need to take you away." ”
"That's not good, since you're here, saving one is also saving, saving ten is also saving ......" In Lucia's opinion, it was very simple to rescue the members of the wild wolf, she didn't think about it, and ran directly to the gallows next to her to help those people untie the ropes, but those people were motionless, even if they untied the ropes, they still couldn't leave the court.
"Let them move, too," Lucia turned to Xuanyu, "just like me." ”
"If you promise me that you will listen to me in the future, I will save them." From the corners of Xuanyu's raised mouth, it can be seen that he seems to be doing a trap, waiting for Lucia to take the bait;
Lucia quickly understood this, but she was going in the wrong direction. She clasped her hands on her chest, and her face turned red: "I...... I don't do that kind of thing!! ”
Xuanyu, who has always been calm, couldn't help but sigh with his forehead, why is it so hard to talk to humans, especially this little girl: "Don't worry, I'm not interested in you!" ”
"That'...... I don't do anything that hurts nature! "This time it's finally to the point.
"What is a hurtful thing? If someone wants your life, will you kill him or not? Xuanyu became serious, and he had to make sure of Lucia's attitude.
"Of course!" Lucia replied very simply, after all, in this world, whether it is a human or a demon, there are too many events and individuals that cannot be subject to human laws, so there are bounty hunters, magicians, ranger swordsmen...... The existence of this type of people.
"In other words, killing someone when your life is threatened is not considered unreasonable." When Xuanyu asked this, his eyes changed from their previous laziness and confusion, and they earned a lot of money, and his eyes were sharp.
"Hmm...... Isn't it......" Lucia clearly felt that she had fallen into the trap, but she didn't know how to refute it.
"Deal!" Xuanyu smiled slightly, a sly light flashed in his eyes, and then he snapped his fingers seemingly casually, and a breeze gently blew the ends of his temples, and then, all the prisoners came to their senses, and they looked at Xuanyu with confused expressions.
"My mana won't last long, I can go as far as I can, and I'll be blessed."
After a pause for two or three seconds, all the prisoners suddenly reacted, and everyone began to run in all directions, even forgetting to thank them, but Xuanyu didn't care about this, he quickly grabbed Lucia's wrist who wanted to escape from the chaos: "Our business is not over yet." ”
Lucia was pulled by the trend and hit Xuanyu's chest, all kinds of emotions were intertwined, she just wanted to resist, but found that the surrounding scenery had changed, it was not the execution ground, this was the ...... Crescent Manor?
Only in that moment? I wanted to say something to complain, but the shock left Lucia speechless, and the best magicians in the clan were none other than that, they were all elders over 60 years old, and he, this strange oriental man......
"How did you do that? Also, what exactly are you? With that, Lucia felt dizzy and fainted.
