Chapter 427: True and False
The redhead's expression was the same as usual, as if they had worked together during the first time they had been in Drow City.
She slowly stood up from the ground with the dagger in her hand, but tilted her head and said: "Yu Tang told me what he told you at the beginning, she asked me to go to Zhuoer City to find a few underground contact black merchants, as if she wanted to completely connect with Zhuoer City." β
Qiu Xuan was noncommittal, and continued with his own words. "Do you know when I ever doubted you?"
"Doubt? Do you still doubt me, Ave? The redhead laughed twice as if he couldn't support it, "What reason do you have to doubt me, we've always been on the same path, haven't we?" β
"I've been suspicious of you since I met you again on Official Road Twenty-Eight, Redhead." Qiu Xuan lowered her eyelashes, and there was no particularly fluctuating emotion in her tone. "But I haven't been able to find anything in the so-called rhetoric you've explained to me. Now I figured it out, probably because all your explanations to me weren't lyingβor rather, you were telling the truth, but it was a fact that partially hid the truth. β
The redhead shrugged, "Oh, so why do you doubt me?" β
Qiu Xuan said: "It's very simple, you have been alone since we met in Oselle. β
The redhead was finally stunned for a moment.
"You told me before that you joined Yu Tang's organization for a period of time and went on missions with them, so it's impossible for them not to know that you are a healing auxiliary executioner with relatively little combat ability. Even if you don't like to form a fixed team with others, but after Yu Tang asked you to go to Drow City to do things for her, how could you rest assured that you, a executioner majoring in healing, would walk alone in Osier? β
"Of course, now you can also argue that in fact, Yu Tang originally arranged a partner for you to walk with, but on the way, that partner died in an accident...... It's also a possibility. Then there is also the problem that Jairo fell into the abyss of nothingness with you, and you were lucky enough to find the eye of the storm, but the timing was not right to escape from the storm around you...... How did you get out in the end? β
The redhead raised his hand to pull a few knotted strands of hair back of his head, "We waited on the edge of the hurricane for a week, and when the next storm stopped, we made it into the eye of the storm. β
"That's not right." Qiu Xuan shook her head, "If there were only two of you at that time, you wouldn't have lasted a week at all. Jairo, on the other hand, is a male who can't be used as a sacrifice to force open the eye of the storm, so he hit you with the idea at the time. β
The redhead finally laughed.
"Afu, so you're trying to accuse me now? Because now that Jairo is dead, as long as I am back in sight alone, you just want to say that I killed Jairo at that time, and then survived by his corpse for a week, and finally successfully left the abyss of nothingness from the eye of the storm. β
"yes, that's what I thought." Qiu Xuan said, "But then I thought of another possibility. β
"You might as well say it all at once."
"It's true that you and Jairo were trapped in the Abyss of Nothingness, it's true that you once joined Yu Tang's organization, it's true that Yu Tang asked you to go to Drow City to hand her over, and even the partner that the organization arranged for you to be your partner is true. But the timeline is different, redhead, when you tell me about your experiences, the experiences you are talking about are all true, only time has changed. β
The other side didn't speak, Qiu Xuan coughed lightly, and continued: "You and Jairo, you didn't directly step into the void and fall into the void at the beginning, what you encountered at the beginning was Yu Tang's organization. Later, you went on several missions together, and Yu Tang told you that it was time to go to Drow City to complete the next step of the plan, and arranged for a member of the organization to assist you in your journey. The member of that organization was a woman. β
"The three of you made your way from the 37th official road in Yutang to the beam, and on the way you accidentally stepped on the air and fell into the abyss of nothingness, and after reaching the eye of the storm, you realized that you needed to choose a companion to sacrifice. So you launched the members of that organization, and you and Jairo escaped from the abyss and returned to Osier, but when you came out, you killed Jairo yourself. When we arrived at the 28th official road, in fact, you had just come out of the abyss of nothingness, and it had not been long since the gang that had just entered the 28th official road. β
The redhead was silent for a long time and finally moved, she raised her head at the bottom of the dark valley, facing Qiu Xuan couldn't see the expression on her face clearly. "You've said before, I'm an executioner majoring in healing in a hellish place like this, so why should I kill Jairo and put myself in trouble?"
"Because Jairo's presence poses a certain threat to you, because you know that Jairo was persuaded by Yu Tang to complete that plan with the rest of the executioners and get out of this proving ground. And you want to get rid of the member of the organization that Yu Tang arranged for you and Jairo at the same time, so that no one knows what you want to do, and no one will get in your way. Qiu Xuan's tone was calm, "Although I don't know what your specific purpose is, I can probably guess that your thoughts must be contrary to the organization, or the executioner who planned the departure plan in most of the Osel. β
"When I was blind in the extreme cold, I used a loudspeaker to call all the hungry people in the neighborhood to come over, but you were among them at the time."
"You were already resting and wanted to leave that day, but you suddenly saw me. You know that after I became ill with snow blindness, the only option was the No. 28 official road closest to the exit of the Extreme Cold Lands, so you stayed there for another day. I told you that I also joined Yu Tang's organization, so you want to get rid of me too, we were surrounded by black-robed people that night, and it was also your hands and feet. β
"Those people didn't make much movement at all, and even if they did, they were discovered and stopped at the beginning. How could it be that within a few hours of the barbecue, all the black-robed killers suddenly went out? That night, you tried your best to prevent me from stepping on the empty rift to escape, just to take advantage of the wave of the black-robed man to kill me completely, but you didn't expect that I would choose to step into the void and pull you down again in a short period of time. β
ββ¦β¦β
"You thought you had escaped from the Abyss of Nothingness once, so you didn't worry about it and followed me into the void again. Plus I'm blind again, and we're carrying three of what you call 'oil bottles', and you're pretty much the only one in control of the team in a place and situation. This is the reason why you can have the confidence to get rid of me even if you enter the abyss of nothingness again...... Maybe I guessed right, redhead? β
The opposite position did not speak, and Qiu Xuan's throat rolled. "The only thing I'm curious about is, why are you standing in opposition to almost all the executioners in this proving ground?"
"Yu Tang's plan is to find out the main line, and our only purpose is to get out of this trial, and I believe you are also for this. So why are you doing this? β
The redhead was silent for a longer time this time, and after a while, she raised her head from the shadows shrouded in the rocks, even if Qiu Xuan was eighty percent sure that her guess was right, she also had a little more doubt when she saw the normal look on the other party's face at this moment.
The redhead finally spoke, but it was an unrelated topic.
She understated it: "When are your eyes good? β
Qiu Xuan raised her eyebrows, "The night before yesterday, all of a sudden, it was fine, and I also felt very sudden. β
So the redhead grinned, shaking his head lightly while laughing, "I knew that I wouldn't have tested you that night, how good it would have been to kill you directly in the moor, and then I would have to bother to act." But you're quite able to bear it, but if I pretended to be blind and saw someone poke a knife in my neck, I would have already broken my skills. β
"Afu," she called out softly, her eyes straight over. "Do you want to know how I managed to attract so many defective black-robed killers to the Twenty-Eighth Official Road that night?"
Qiu Xuan frowned.
The redhead suddenly raised a finger out of thin air, and the stalemate looked a little strange, but no one would point out anything in the current atmosphere.
The red hair stared at the finger that was half-raised in the air, and then trembled slightly as if he felt something, Qiu Xuan pulled Qin Jiuyuan to take a step back, and watched as the other party's finger with a healthy complexion suddenly turned black like dyeing.
If you look closely, you can see that the finger is covered with flies.
The dense flies, fluttering their wings, enclose the skin of their fingers without a trace of space, so from a distance it becomes completely black like color. The redhead closed his eyes and tilted his head back, unable to tell for a moment whether the expression on his face was pain or pleasure.
Then, from her fingers, which were wrapped in dense flies, there were goosebump-like bumps under her intact and smooth skin, which could cause physical discomfort to people who were not dense phobias. The moment the fine bulge on the first piece of skin broke out, Qiu Xuan suddenly understood what was going on, she sighed as if she couldn't stand it, and would rather she still be blind at this time.
Eggs.
I don't know when countless insect eggs are parasitic under the red-haired skin, which will break the skin of the first area, and one by one the young maggots that make people's scalps are the first to poke their heads into the skin, wriggling and twisting the white joints.
The maggots were so fast that the first batch of parasitic maggots were the first to complete the worming, crowded with large swaths of flies, staining that piece of skin black.
Qiu Xuan couldn't see the redhead's expression clearly, because most of the face was wriggling in small goosebump-like bumps, turning from white to black adults.
Looking at it, a name suddenly appeared in her heart, and almost in the next second when the redhead's entire face was covered by flies, Qiu Xuan shouted. "Beelzebub! Have you seen Beelzebub before?! Redhead, answer me! β
The only eyes exposed to the air flickered, and when she glanced at the buzzing of the wings of countless flies, there seemed to be a small voice speaking, but it was not really audible for a moment.
Qiu Xuan frowned and leaned closer, and as soon as she took a step forward, the humming sound of dense patches and geometric magnification shook her head.
At this time, the dense flies were already about to wrap the whole body of the red-haired person in it, and the complete insect transformation process was carried out here, and it was paused for a few seconds by pressing the pause button like a mime, and then, the "red-haired" tilted his head sideways, and the whole black-wrapped body pounced towards Qiu Xuan at a terrifying and alarming speed.
This was not a speed that a support executioner like the redhead could achieve, and even those defective black-robed killers, who were already difficult to deal with, looked weak in the face of such a body. Qiu Xuan gritted his teeth and waved his knife in front of him, and saw that in the next second, where the snow-white knife surface touched, countless flies fluttered their wings and flew to cover his short knife.
She felt uncomfortable, and immediately unleashed the power of the necromancy to condense on the blade.
Unexpectedly, the buzzing of the flies seemed to pause for a second, and then wriggled again.
And then the "red hair" followed, and in an instant, Qiu Xuan felt as if she had fallen into some large garbage dump. Her whole body was wrapped in an endless pile of disgusting flies, and a hand suddenly reached in to hold her arm, Qiu Xuan's expression froze, and she stabbed the "red hair" with a backhand, dragging that hand to temporarily get out of the wave of flies.
