Chapter Fifty-Eight: Reminiscences and Sorrows
"I fell into a dream......," Hirsch sighed as he stood in the purple mist.
I didn't expect Mengqi's dreams to last so long, and I always felt like I had forgotten something. Speaking of which, he knew that Mengqi was nearby, why didn't he notice it before?
I don't know if the other self is still in the dream, when I was in the underground jade mine, I was faintly aware of it, at least now, she and herself are not the same person.
The purple mist cleared, and Hirsch was suddenly a little curious about what she would encounter in her dreams, and suddenly, her pupils shrank, and two black and white colors were reflected in her eyes.
It was an upside-down city, with tall buildings glowing white, built from the clouds, a strange difference from the city where the ground was pitch black.
The glass windows of the city hanging in the clouds reflect the light of the sun, and a tower reaches from the clouds to the ground, which is the only passage connecting the sky and the earth, and the black and white tower body is intertwined with the dark aura of the gray city on the ground...... A ray of light struck her through the gray city.
"Shhh......h She stared at the upside-down city.
Come to remember, it was, the Floating City, the ruling center of the Ark Council, the Hanging City that had been destroyed!
Hirsch and Emissary G went to great lengths to obtain the core of the Ark and the core of the Guardian of the Twelve Wonders, in order to turn back the clock in the Land of Origin and restore the floating city to its newly built state.
The floating city is the Ark Three!
Floating in the colorful clouds of the Land of Origin, and with a giant gravity-defying engine built on a curved frame, it is a floating city of divine splendor and a high level of civilization.
The Tower of Babel, which reaches to the ground, is not only for collecting "planetary blood" from the depths of the Land of Origin, it is also the only way for primitive humans to enter the floating city from the ground.
"Sure enough, the most important moment in my memory...... It's the destruction of the floating city! ”
Hirsch put down his blood-stained left hand, and watched without blinking his eyes as the quiet and peaceful city in the clouds suddenly began to explode from the top to the bottom of the Tower of Babel, and the huge firelight illuminated the corners of the gray city.
At this moment, the demon seeds, humans, and super-intelligent gods all stopped attacking, or celebrated or admired or lamented the destruction of the floating city.
Migration of super-intelligent lifeforms, war of the gods, rebellion of demon seeds, human era...... It was all a long time ago, and more than three hundred years of dormancy had affected her memory.
Hirsch's eyes became sharp, he must find the core of the ark and the twelve wonders, cover the floating city in the place of origin, step by step, and implement the plan of the three leaders!
"So, can you open up the dream and let me out?" After Hirsch finished speaking, the purple mist dissipated, and she opened her eyes, and dawn had arrived.
But, a piercing voice sounded in her ears, and the pale hand held the knife to her neck, "G, the last dawn, is it beautiful?" Speaking of which, this is the first time we have met since we parted from Fucheng hundreds of years ago, right? ”
"You weren't like that before, and neither am I!"
The emissary, who had once worn a mask and had never shown his face, had now lost his enviable blonde hair.
"It's you." Hirsch glanced at the short knife against his neck, and the cold-faced demon seed that restrained him, and didn't dare to act rashly, "You're going to kill me?" ”
The face of the Eye of Annihilation was hidden under the cloak, and his chin was as pale as snow, "Although according to the rules of the Ark Council, I cannot make a move against you, but my subordinates are neither members of the Council nor humans, so naturally they are not under the rules. ”
He walked up to Hirsch, grabbed her cloak, lifted her up, tilted his head, and smiled madly on his face: "Moreover, the Ark Council no longer exists, and I am a demon seed, how can I follow the rules of the Council!" ”
"......" Hirsch was stunned, her eyes reflected the crazy expression of the Eye of Annihilation, as if she had seen herself like this in someone's eyes a long time ago.
"Speaking of which, what is the miracle you are keeping?" Seeing that Hirsch didn't speak, the Eye of Annihilation put her down so that Luo Lu no longer restricted her movements, and he said funny: "It's the first time I've seen the guardian of miracles leave my own realm!" ”
'......'Hirsch'
"Speaking of which, I had a dream, and you should be interested in hearing it." The Eye of Annihilation continued, "I dreamed of a floating city that crashed from the clouds......"
?! Hirsch was surprised in his heart, but his expression did not change, but the Eye of Annihilation deliberately sold off the gate and did not say anything.
"......," Hirsch touched the three gold leaves on the clasp, "you continue." ”
"Equivalent exchange, you give me his news, and I will tell you." The Eye of Annihilation snorted coldly.
"No......" Hirsch looked embarrassed, did he really want to tell the Eye of Annihilation about that?
"If you can't do what you promised, you will be sad, right?" The Eye of Annihilation looked at Hirsch's moved expression and said jokingly.
"......" Hirsch bit his lip, a chill in his eyes.
A long time ago, that red-clothed flying knight said the same!
"G, do you know why I haven't solved you yet? Because ......," a fierce glint in the red eyes of the Eye of Annihilation, "I awakened the memories of that knight, that metal door, and that android, the North Ice. ”
After a pause, he added, "I see the truth of the world!" ”
Hirsch covered his mouth suddenly, and asked in surprise: "You, it's Ajani......"
"Heh, I'm not the idiot who was killed by my friend." The Eye of Annihilation smiled coldly, "It's really a touching friendship, after coming from the old world to the new world, the life remodeling project was activated, and you used the core of the ark to record them to create me and Kailan." But in the first place, you killed them! ”
Hirsch was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly explained: "Ajani, that's an order from Xuandu, I can't help it......"
"I'm not Agani!" The Eye of Annihilation roared at her, "G, whether it's in the Ark or now, you've never treated me as an independent person! ”
Hirsch looked at his frantic expression, his eyes blank, and he didn't speak.
"Kailan and I are not containers for their resurrection at all, and those test subjects, we all have independent personalities, and we can't deny us the right to be free just because we were created."
"Now, the Ark Council no longer exists, and Fucheng, Xuandu, Luochuan, and Sanctuary have also been destroyed......" He looked at Heshey, who was kneeling on the sand dunes, devastated and lost, and said coldly: "G, this is all retribution!" ”
"I know, but ......" But compared to the more secrets of Ayato, these are not worth mentioning!
"I don't want to see you again." The Eye of Annihilation raised his hand, and Luo Lu respectfully placed the short knife in his hand.
"Your presence only reminds me of one thing......" The Eye of Annihilation pointed his dagger at Hirsch, and the sand dunes suddenly moved, forming a cage enveloping the three of them, and the dawn reflected his smile through the cracks in the sand cage: "I was created only to alleviate the feelings of atonement in someone's heart. ”
"......" Hirsch's eyes were cold, and the red and blue swords appeared in his hands, only a few meters between them.
"G, you don't want to kill me, do you?" The Eye of Annihilation sneered and licked the short knife, "According to the rules of the Ark Council, you can't attack me, so you can't escape now, and you can't fight back, so you can only be killed by me obediently!" ”
"Why be so concerned about the rules of the Ark Council? They have mastered so much technology, why don't they teach it to the native humans, what's wrong with Kailan, who was sent to the Far North to guard for a thousand years?! ”
Hirsch looked at him warily, "What are you going to do after killing me?" ”
The Eye of Annihilation held the short knife and said unhurriedly: "Although, it's useless if you know, but it doesn't matter, tell you!" I'll get the core of the Wall first, then find the core of the ark and resurrect Kailan. ”
Hirsch sneered, "Did you know that there are descendants of Kailan in the Great Wall you want to destroy?" ”
"What?! Descendent? The Eye of Annihilation was taken aback, a look of deep disbelief in his eyes, "This can't be, isn't he already dead in the battle to defend the Tower of the Sun?" ”
"No, he was lucky to meet the leader, and the leader wrote his name on the list of the Great Migration, and a lot of things happened later, and I don't know the specifics."
"An-la, I'll look into those things myself, and I'll solve you first!" As he spoke, the Eye of Annihilation quickly flashed to Hirsch's side, and the short knife passed through Hirsch's neck, dropping a strand of black hair.
"Space cutting, what a nasty law." Disgust flashed in the red eyes of the Eye of Annihilation, and he said to Hirsch, who was left behind Luo Lu.
"This is your battlefield, I have to be careful!" Hirsch took a battle stance, a red sword aimed at the Eye of Annihilation, and a sword placed behind his back to prevent a sneak attack.
"Really?!" The Eye of Annihilation smiled slightly, and the sand rolled up the Lanling King and Guiguzi who had passed out on the sand dunes, and he lifted his cloak, revealing a gloomy face, and snapped his fingers.
"G, which of them do you care about?"
"This is a grudge between you and me, don't involve anyone else." Hirsch remained in an attacking stance, warning him.
"During my years in the cage, I heard the wails of countless demon seeds, and this young man's parents were one of the culprits of the demon seeds' rampant crimes." The Eye of Annihilation's hand opened and clenched fiercely.
"This is the war between humans and demons, no one can tolerate anyone, and it is not the ideal country that the leader said at all!"
King Lanling opened his eyes suddenly, he was about to die from the sand, gasping for breath, in his dream, he saw the person who killed them, just like the girl who snatched the jade of rebirth in the jade city, wearing half a red-eyed mask.
He woke up and couldn't tell if it was reality or a dream, until a hand pulled him out of the sand.
"Nasty space cutting!" The Eye of Annihilation said viciously, the moment he wanted to pinch the Lanling King and Guiguzi to death, Hirsch launched a command and transfer, exchanging them with the red and blue swords in his hand.
"Are you two alright?" Hirsch put them down and asked.
"I'm fine, but Guiguzi is still in a coma." King Lanling was surprised by the girl's arm strength, and was glad that he had worn a mask and had not inhaled sand.
"Tsk, you look at him, look for a chance to take him away, I'll go find you." Hirsch instructed, activating the circle to recall the sword.
"You're ...... Alone"
"I ran away, but the goal of three people running together is big." So you think too much, I can't beat him at all!
The Eye of Annihilation watched the two swords return to the hands of Messenger G, and applauded, "What an enviable ability!" ”
"However, even if it's three against two, you can't beat me!"
King Lanling couldn't understand the Eye of Annihilation's conversation with Hirsch, and he looked confused, but he understood that things were not simple!
"Remember what I say." Hirsch dropped these words, and rushed towards the Eye of Annihilation and Luo Lu with his red and blue swords.
When they were inseparable, King Lanling launched a stealth to pick up the unconscious Guiguzi and run.
The Eye of Annihilation didn't care, and while he fought Hirsch, he created a sandstorm near the sand prisoner, trapping the Lanling King in it.
On the other side, Hua Mulan and the others, who were aware of the movement, had already identified the sandstorm of the Eye of Annihilation and were rushing towards them.
Hirsch stabbed the Eye of Annihilation with a sword and kicked Orido, "Don't be distracted during the battle!" ”
"Tsk, underestimating you." The Eye of Annihilation looked at the severed limb that had fallen on the sand, and there was a chill in his eyes.
"Master?" Luo Lu crawled out of the sand, saw that his master was injured, and shouted.
"Don't worry." The Eye of Annihilation smiled slightly, and the severed limbs turned into sand and returned to his body, "My life form is sand. ”
"Cut!" Hirsch said disdainfully, "Keep coming!" ”
It would take a lot of time for King Lanling to take Guiguzi through the sandstorm, and she would have to continue to delay the Eye of Annihilation!
"Why should I fight you?" The Eye of Annihilation smiled coldly, withdrew the sand prisoner and rushed towards Hirsch, who quickly used the spatial cut to dodge, and in the moment they staggered, she saw the smug smile on the corner of his mouth.
Not good! Hirsch was shocked, he was going to attack them.
Command and transmission
The moment Hirsch gave her the command, Lotus attacked her, causing Hirsch's teleportation to fail, and she was attacked by him.
Luo Lu looked at Hirsch in surprise as she had been nailed to the sand dunes by dozens of her own needle feathers, the nail parts of her body emitted golden points of light, the needle feathers dissipated, and the wound disappeared!
"Monster!" Luo Lu had a frightened look in her eyes, she was more like a monster than herself!
"Monsters?" Hirsch smiled, "yes, that's what my best friend said. ”
She got up from the sand dunes, her black hair flying, and she smirked and threw herself at Luo Lu who was flying in the air, and she wanted to eat it in a frenzy!
Hua Mulan rushed to the battlefield first, and the sandstorm was gone, but she saw the humanoid demon seed pinching the neck of the Lanling King and twisting it slightly, his head tilted, and her heart sank.
"No, this shouldn't be ......" Mulan rushed towards the Eye of Annihilation, he must still be alive!
The Eye of Annihilation didn't care about the bugs running towards him, throwing the bugs in his hand on the dunes, ignoring the other bugs hiding in the dunes.
"G, are you going to kill me?" As soon as the Eye of Annihilation turned around, he saw the messenger G wearing the golden-eyed mask pointing his red sword at him.
Behind her, Luo Lu, who had turned into a black-winged bird, had been stuck in the sand dunes by the blue sword, and the power of the demon path on his body flowed along the inscription on the sword body.
"You can't do it, because I have Ajani's memory." The Eye of Annihilation smiled coldly, Hirsch's hand holding the sword did not tremble, his face was expressionless, but he could still feel her hesitation, "If you don't do it, I'll do it~"
"Ahem......" Hirsch dropped his sword and stepped back, slumping into the wings of the Blackwinged Bird.
The Eye of Annihilation stabbed her before she could finish speaking, and she also suffered the blow because of the Eye of Annihilation's words, hesitating.
Consciousness began to drift away......
Next, it's up to you......
Seeing that Hirsch's breathing had stopped and the sword that had been inserted in Luo Lu's body had been drawn, the Eye of Annihilation waited for her core to appear, and in the process, he passed on the power of the Demon Dao to Luo Lu and let him transform into a human form again.
Luo Lu looked at Hirsch, who was already dead, and hurriedly pushed her away, but hurriedly got up at the moment of contact, it was a cold to the bone!
"What's wrong?" The Eye of Annihilation asked.
"Cold, she's so cold."
The Eye of Annihilation was a little curious, and was ready to bring up Messenger G to see if he was really dead!
"Give me back my master!" The moment he stretched out his hand, a scythe hooked towards them, stopping his movements, and a red-haired demon seed boy with tears in his eyes attacked them!
A crimson figure appeared on the sand dunes, helping the dead Lanling King, and she did not shed tears.
She knows very well that at this time, it is not suitable for children to be in love!
She can only avenge the king of Lanling, and nothing else can be done!
The promise made......
Only the afterlife!
