Chapter 37: A Strange Dream
In Li Bai's house, a golden-haired girl and a red-haired girl are kneeling under the wall of the living room.
A dark purple curtain hung down in the middle, blocking the (possibly) prying eyes of each other.
Behind the two girls, Li Bai, dressed in casual clothes and wearing a black-rimmed glasses, sat in front of several cases, browsing the newspaper with relish.
There were also a large stack of such newspapers on several cases, all of which she helped bring when she dragged Joker out occasionally, because of the long interval, the number accumulated a lot, which was basically enough for her to pass the time for several days.
The clock rotated, silence was the only melody in the living room, Desilei and Lilith each changed their postures a few times because of the soreness of their calves, but they still didn't dare to make any louder noises, and the largest decibel that sounded during this period was the sound of Li Bai turning the pages of the newspaper staggered.
"Goo-Goo~~~~~
…… and the cooing sound in the lower abdomen of the two men in the wall.
"......" Listening to this voice, which I don't know how many times it will appear because of hunger, Li Bai seemed to be aware of it, separated his thoughts from the newspaper, looked up at the two people in front of him, and saw that they were each sitting very stiffly because of the hours of kneeling, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.
Desilei and Lilith heard the sound of Li Bai getting up, and heard her open the side door and enter the kitchen.
After about twenty or thirty minutes, a strong smell of food began to permeate the small house, and the two wall-facing girls swallowed wildly.
At last the conscience found out that Ken was going to cook for us—that was what Desiret and Lilith thought on the same page.
But soon they found themselves overthinking.
Li Bai made about 12 dishes, in addition to the ones she originally knew, there were also a few that she learned based on the recipes she found on the Internet. It was evident that she was in a good mood, and she had been humming a minor tune that had been quite popular a few months ago in the gap between the stacks of newspapers and the serving of food, and after serving herself a large bowl of fragrant white rice, she leisurely sat down again and began to eat dinner.
The smell of all kinds of fragrant cooked food mixed together is like an invisible ghost, no matter how much the two people facing the wall hypnotize themselves and how they hold their breath, it will resolutely convey a message to them through the respiratory organs of the two people.
Convey the message of "I'm delicious".
Li Baisi slowly put down his chopsticks, swallowed the last bite of food, and looked at the two again.
Desirée remained motionless, and Lilith writhed restlessly on the cushion on which she knelt.
“Desire。” She called the former's name, "Come and eat." ”
But Desilei didn't immediately cheer and run over to gobble up as Li Bai imagined, the blonde girl first played smartly, and then her thin back still trembled, as if she was struggling to the death.
“……?” Li Baihu raised an eyebrow suspiciously.
"Lipel...... Can you, pull me, a little. After struggling repeatedly to no avail, De Silei turned her head, with tears hanging from the corners of her eyes, and looked at Li Bai pitifully: "My legs are numb and numb, and I can't move...... Finish. ”
“…… Never mind. Looking at her like this, Li Bai's previous brewing love was gone, she walked behind the two of them in a few steps, raised her voice, and asked, "I'll ask you again now-do you know it's wrong." ”
"Got it—" The two of them, along with Lilith, hurriedly seized the opportunity and apologized seemingly sincerely.
"Oh!" Li Bai's face was expressionless, and she didn't immediately forgive them, she raised her hand to put away the curtain that blocked them, so that they could see each other's embarrassment, and then continued to ask, "Do you know what's wrong?" ”
"Uh......" The two looked at each other awkwardly, each of them a little reluctant to speak, but this may be their last chance, so Lilith took the pot first.
"We ...... We shouldn't play that kind of prank. She stammered, "I...... Kindness...... I shouldn't have had that kind of bad idea. ”
"I shouldn't, listen to Lilith, take advantage of Lipel, go out to play, take Liper, inside the armor, everything, clothes, out." This is Desire.
“…… Shut up. Hearing them apologize for the prank, Li Bai couldn't help but have very bad memories again, and his face was very ugly.
There is a way that she doesn't fight for three days, and she goes to the house to uncover the tiles, and she is a little better at these two troubles, and the other party begins to make waves...... The "popping" incident some time ago has not been mentioned, but this time they actually dare - do they know how embarrassing it is for her to be on that occasion!?
Next time, are you going to move your clothes and armor together?
Li Bai hasn't been so angry about things other than cards for a long time, this time the two of them are really too much, if they don't treat them at one time, similar embarrassment will definitely come one after another, so she directly turned on the force mode, showing the simplest and most direct way of corporal punishment - kneeling on the wall + forbidden feeding.
Judging from the current situation alone, the warning effect of this method is quite remarkable, and the two troublesome spirits are a little more obedient than before.
"Lilith, pull Desirée up, be careful, she's just healed, and her body is still very dirty." For the sake of admitting his mistake and having a good attitude, Li Bai didn't want to say anything, so he forgave the two of them temporarily, and after instructing them to eat, he returned to the bedroom alone.
Desirée and Lilith had been pushed out to sleep together because of their mistakes, and now the room, as small as the living room, had become her own kingdom again.
Not wanting to be disturbed any more, Li Bai flipped the status sign on the door to the side where the picture was prohibited, closed it, and leaned on it in a daze.
Recent days...... Except for the troublesome things caused by the elves, it is relatively peaceful, and she is a little tired of being peaceful.
Maybe I'm not inherently suitable for too long of peace? But isn't that what I'm craving right now......
Li Bai looked at the white ceiling and was stunned.
Turning on the computer, while absentmindedly browsing the course materials prepared for Kagurazaka, Li Bai watched the anecdotes about the island posted on the academy's intranet, which lasted for about less than 40 minutes, and she got bored, so she pushed away the mouse and keyboard again, and threw herself on the soft mattress.
Do you want to sleep. She asked herself.
But I haven't washed up yet. She thought helplessly.
But. She smiled like a kitten.
Sometimes, there are things that I just don't want to do...... This......
The soul glowing with a faint white light gradually lost consciousness, and with some unknown traction, crossed the unimaginable barrier and came to an unknown place.
"Hurry, hurry!" A hazy and rough voice came, "Those demonic armies are almost here, and all the things that will slow down in your hands are gone!" Hear no! I mean all! ”
What happened to the "......".
Li Bai's consciousness was also hazy, as if it was covered with a layer of mist, and everyone's faces were looming, and no one could see the truth.
The surrounding environment is a wilderness, and through the gap where "herself" eyes frequently look back, she can see the narrow mountain road behind her, which is very hidden, and the village that is almost invisible hidden by the bushes.
At this moment, she seems to be only consciously attached to a child's body, led by her family, and together with other villagers, she evacuates her hometown as quickly as possible.
There are more than a dozen rangers in charge of escorting this group of villagers, and judging by the situation, they were originally a small team, and the one who spoke and urged just now should be the leader of them.
The ground in the line of sight was quickly enlarged, and the messy grass blades and dead branches instantly came to view, and the ground seemed to be skewed.
It seems that the child fell.
"Bunny, can you please stop playing heartbeat with me!" Still the same rough voice as before, Li Bai felt that "himself" was quickly picked up by a pair of big hands, and continued to march with the team in a way that his feet did not touch the ground.
"I" seem to have been caught under the armpit?
Looking at the rapidly retreating ground and the two oversized boots that moved with "her", Li Bai couldn't cry or laugh.
This dream is a little too bizarre.
"Captain!" Suddenly, a younger man's voice sounded, "The bald eagle is back!" ”
"What about the situation?" The man holding Li Bai immediately asked, and Li Bai could hear the nervousness in his voice.
"The situation...... Very bad. The young man's voice trembled slightly, "It is their most elite unit that pursues us, and it is the fastest and most convenient of them all. ”
“…… The End of the Necrons? ”
After a long silence, Li Bai's ears were full of the hustle and bustle of the wind.
"Captain......" the young man spoke again, "we can't leave like this!" ”
"Not as well! Fight with them! ”
"Idiot!" Li Bai felt that his ears were about to become deaf...... The thunderous roar, coupled with the extreme proximity of "she", inevitably took the Boeonic attack as ordered.
"It doesn't matter if you die yourself, but do you want to kill these villagers! And her...... Your sister! ”
"But ......"
"Beware, they're coming!"
Li Bai's gaze swirled for a while, almost not blinded, she heard the clanging of swords, and a very slight sound of horses' hooves.
After recovering her senses, she began to use a few shakings of her vision to observe the enemies that suddenly appeared, and after more than a dozen identifications, she was a little stunned - if she was not mistaken, she knew all these black knights who suddenly jumped out of the bushes behind her.
…… This is the elven realm?
"Bell-"
"Why are their horses running silent!?" The young man's voice revealed utter horror, "My sword has been blocked!" ”
"Ahh
"Bell!"
"Don't go toe-to-toe with them!" The rugged man seemed to run away from the young man, and as he wrestled with his enemies, he roared, "Every Knight of the End is equipped with an invisible shield, which is proof of their pact with the demon!" ”
Not like that.
Li Bai silently recited the card effect of the Knight of the End in his heart, and then reversely calculated the next few cards that could be matched, and he already had a foundation in his heart.
Necro Guardian...... ?
I see, that's what the final necromancy means.
"We alone can't stop them!" The young man shouted, "The bald man said that there were about seventy or eighty men in the troops pursuing us, and there were only two!" ”
"Make more use of the terrain!" The rugged man replied, "After all, this is a dense jungle, and there must be restrictions as a cavalry, try more......"
"Bell-"
"Damn...... What kind of horse are they riding!? It seems that this method will not work, Li Bai thought.
"Hey, more people are coming over there!" Are you going to be surrounded?
Li Bai didn't feel much panic, as she thought, since it was a dream, even death would only speed up the awakening...... She didn't need to be afraid.
On the contrary, she was more interested in why she saw such an image in her dreams.
Dozens of Riders of the End were forming a circle, trying to encircle them in the center...... Strangely enough, none of them had spoken since they had fought with the Rangers.
It's as if they weren't born to speak.
"We can't escape, Captain!" There was desperation in the young man's voice, "They're too fast! ”
"That can't be returned!" Li Bai could feel the arm holding her tremble, "We must buy them more time to leave!" ”
"But they have more people now!!"
"Bell!"
"Bell, bell, bell!!"
After a series of sudden steel clashes, Li Bai finally saw them kill an enemy.
"Kia!" The two voices that had been frequently sounded before shouted together, mixed with the surprise and joy of the rest of their lives after the catastrophe.
Li Bai's possessed body also seemed to feel this feeling, and raised his head with some difficulty, observing the ally who suddenly joined the battle.
This guy's equipment is much more reliable than the rangers. At the first glance of the visitor, such a thought flashed through Li Bai's heart.
The seemingly slender body lacks the strength of a giant man, dressed in black stainless steel plate armor, holding a giant machete and a shield of the same material as the armor in both hands, and wearing a battle helmet on his head, only leaving a Y-shaped gap on the face to provide fresh air and vision to the warriors in the battle helmet.
"Looks like I'm not late." The voice of the sword and shield heavy armor warrior came from the helmet, with a bit of the smell of urn sound, "Hi ~ Captain, I'm back?" ”
…… If consciousness could make movements, Li Bai would definitely be frowning, she vaguely felt that this voice was a little familiar, as if she had heard it somewhere a long time ago.
"Looks like the rest of the people should have settled down as well...... Then! The man known as the captain was relieved, and Li Bai once again felt that the surrounding environment was spinning, and then she found that "herself" had appeared in the arm of the heavily armored warrior.
"Originally, I thought I was going to be buried with this little guy, but since you're here, help take care of it."
"Uh...... You still took her with you when you broke off? The heavily armored warrior was obviously amazed that he could still see the little girl in this situation, but before he could say anything more, a sudden change occurred.
Li Bai's eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of blood red, and she watched as "herself" burst out of her chest and stretched out a sharp claw, which cut open the warrior's chest armor in an instant.
"Poof!"
"Nicole Lotfia ......"
"Kia! No—"
This was the last voice Li Bai heard before his consciousness sanitized into darkness.
At the same time, in the present world, in a hospital in Tong Shiye City, a yellow-haired young man with a tube full of tubes suddenly opened his eyes.
