Volume 5: The Cold-Blooded Princess and the Dark Paradise Chapter 119: Beyond the Limit
.
Without waiting for old Duroc to answer, the inspector immediately asked again:
"Do you think that the only wars in this city are the ones you see?"
“……”
"No, I shouldn't have said that." The police inspector immediately changed his words, "I think you should have been in contact with a lot of involvement over the years...... Well, you can't deal with the troubles caused by the 'level' of existence. Do you remember what happened after that? ”
"After that...... old Duroc's eyes moved, "report it, and then leave it alone." ”
Listening to his answer, a suspicious smile appeared on the corner of the inspector's mouth, the kind of smile that would make the hearts of the faint of heart furious.
"Do you think it's really possible?"
“……”
"Let's go back." Before Old Duroc could ask another question, the inspector had already waved his hand to him and made a gesture of sending off the guest, "Don't think that as long as you are a smart person in the world, you can think of it, and you can think of it above, and think more." I can only tell you, don't take those sneaky guys too seriously, they do have their own reasons for existence, but they must also know their position, if they go too far, someone will naturally teach them what the rules are. Ultimately...... No matter how much grasshoppers can jump, they are just grasshoppers, a group of gangsters who think they can turn the sky upside down. ”
The little thug who thinks he can turn the world upside down...... This is the above evaluation of the seemingly unstoppable and incomparably powerful super-spec forces of the dark world. This did reassure Old Duroc for a while, but at the same time, he vaguely realized that what he could see and touch was only the most superficial battle in the city, and beneath that there was a deeper, higher-level, and more secretive game of forces on all sides.
In this, the police seem to have played an unshakable role as a giant, enough to look down on all the forces that exist in the dark world, including but not limited to all parties, and even the five major groups of the empty court cannot be compared to them.
But this is normal, if the armed forces on the government's side are not so strong, then it is the gangs, not the government, who control the city. This situation is still possible in the wandering cities ruled by some small regimes in the outer regions, but it will definitely not occur in the cities under the jurisdiction of the nine major regimes.
At this time, looking at Adele, who felt as powerful as a god, a question suddenly popped up in Old Duroc's mind. Is there a secret department within the Stuttgard police that is responsible for the operation of that other system, and there is a existence that can match the children of the Nether like Adele? Even if it is such a powerful Adele, in the eyes of that other system, is it just a grasshopper that can't turn the sky?
If this is the case, what is the power that the police top brass secretly control? Martial arts practitioners? Militants? Transforming people? Or is it ...... Strangers?
It's all possible...... With an inexplicable sigh that didn't know what emotions were mixed with, Old Duroc reached out and pulled little Jit up, and was about to move closer to Ed. Now that Adele has arrived, they no longer need to run away in a hurry, it is not good to be separated, it is safer to be together.
At the same time, Adele also took the initiative to fight back against Bai Lin's struggle. She grabbed Bai Lin's whip and pulled it towards her-
The scene that had been staged before was staged again, only this time Bai Lin was more passive. The strength of the Nether Child was more than a little stronger than Eddard, who was not a top-notch martial arts cultivator, and Bai Lin almost felt that his arm was dislocated, and he was dragged to the sky without any room for resistance when he was prepared. But as before, even in such a dangerous situation, she did not completely lose the will and means to resist.
The next moment she was dragged into the air by Adele, she threw out several streamers with a flick of her hand, incredibly fast, almost beyond her limits - she had to do it, because the distance between her and Adele was too short, more than a little shorter than the last time she and Eddard were between her and Eddard, the last time it was a street, this time it was a few floor tiles that could be counted with only two hands!
And at that moment, Bai Lin's narrow eyes widened a little, to an unprecedented extent—though still not very large—and his gaze was brighter than ever, as if there were stars spreading in them. Adele's powerful oppressive power combined with her own tenacious will produces an unexpected, bizarre effect. She could feel the invisible shackles in her body crack slightly, and she could feel every inch of her flesh and bones trembling with excitement.
If she can survive today, she is confident that she will surpass herself again in a short period of time and break through her life and death limits!
Nothing is easier to transcend life and death!
But only if she can actually survive, which doesn't seem easy. In the face of the mechanical throwing knives that flew almost close to her face, Adele's body only shook illusoryly, and then disappeared in place with a twisted flash, leaving all the knives empty.
Bai Lin's eyes widened, and at the same time, her pupils shrunk even smaller, and the hair locks hanging down on the left side of her forehead flew and fluttered in the air, covering half of her face, revealing only ordinary lips, the corners of her mouth were pursed, and then she suddenly turned back in the air-
At this time, she was about to hit the ground, and at this time, even if she could perfectly control every muscle in her body, she would not be able to regain her balance in time, and she would inevitably land on her back and fall to the position where Adele had just stood.
But she had to do it, because by this time Adele had already appeared behind her, and she had just flown through the air like a falcon aiming at its prey, her emotionless eyes locked on herself below, and made a predator's dive at her.
At this moment, if Bai Lin, who has become the prey, wants to save herself, there is only one choice left - the rabbit kicks the eagle, survives in death, sinks the boat, and gives it a go!
"Come on!!"
Holding a mechanical throwing knife in his left hand, and flicking the whip back in his right hand, a phantom flickering grid was formed around his body in an instant, and Bai Lin's beautiful and slender cheeks were filled with a hint of hideousness, like a sick wolf defending food.
If you want my life, prepare me to be splashed with blood!
“……”
Adele's gaze narrowed slightly at this moment. Her figure was like an illusory, distorted, entangled cloud of light, easily passing through Bai Lin's web of whip shadows, as if it were incorporeal.
Bai Lin's teeth clenched together, and Adele's flickering and changing light and shadow were reflected in her long narrow eyes, and suddenly her small pupils froze violently, and the flying knife in her hand flew out with a bursting arc of electricity.
"K-"
The tiny sound of metal clashing made everything fall silent, and there was no other sound in the space.
Eddard, who was paying attention to the battle situation and leaning towards him as old Duroc and little Jit, turned his head in surprise, and looked at all his two eyes at the two women, at the petite figure in the air and in the middle of the whip shadow, at the small folding knife that flipped out of her hand, and at the mechanical throwing knife that was blocked by her and flew around the electric light.
This knife did not have any effect on Adele, it can be said that she defused Bai Lin's last effective counterattack like flicking a toothpick with her fingers. But that's not the point, the point is - she was beaten.
She was beaten by Bai Lin! Bai Lin's attack actually accurately aimed, locked, and caught up with her figure, catching up with the Nether Child's most characteristic speed beyond the limits of creatures, predicting her trajectory in advance, and making her flying knife appear in the position where her body would appear with great precision, so that she had to use other means to solve this unexpected interference. Although this didn't cause any distraction to her on the whole, it was enough to surprise her and Ed, who was watching.
If it was before, Bai Lin would definitely not be able to do this kind of thing. She really managed to break through herself and surpass her original limits in the battle with Adele!
Although it was only a preliminary breakthrough, Ed believed that as long as she was given a short period of time, she would be able to take that step completely and firmly consolidate. At that time, I'm afraid that even if I have recovered my whole self, I will not be able to defeat her easily.
"Ah, that's exciting." Ed squinted his eyes in his heart, crooked the corners of his mouth, and muttered, "If this continues, I'll be holding her boots and kissing and polishing shoes." ”
If he had the privilege of getting the opportunity—he added. Because it seems that he won't have that chance.
Bai Lin, whose last resort did not work, is now completely in a desperate situation. Originally, based on Ed's simple impression after meeting Adele last night, she was not actually the kind of person who was ruthless and murderous in the true sense of the word, she didn't like to kill, and she didn't hate killing, it should be said that she didn't feel any about this kind of behavior, and taking away life could neither bring her pleasure nor make her feel pain. She didn't have that emotion, and she couldn't understand that emotion. She kills people just to meet the needs of the mission.
But the eldest lady and the little jitter are different. The former is her master, while the latter is her lover. She didn't know what emotions were, but she knew what emotions should be about how they should respond to different stimuli.
She roughly understands how she, as a lover, should react emotionally when she sees her boyfriend almost killed—what appropriate behavior she should make.
It was anger, it was ruthlessness, it was the uncontrollable killing intent that erupted out, the cold-burning ferocious hostility to the culprit who almost took the lover's life!
"Die!"
