Chapter 1055: Ugly (1)
The nature of living beings is ugly, says the Administrator.
An Xiaoyu has never had such a clear experience before, even if he has seen too much deceit and intrigue when he was in the empire, and has seen too much hatred, murder and interest competition, An Xiaoyu is still willing to see the good side of human beings, because after all, most people will have a good side.
She is a girl from the Eastern Wilderness, in that place of the Eastern Wilderness, believing that the people around you are the survival instinct of all the Eastern Wilderness people, and making others believe that you yourself is also the basic attitude to life. So after coming out of the Eastern Wilderness, An Xiaoyu has always maintained a positive attitude, willing to believe that the world is still beautiful.
But when she saw the bonfire burning in the square, An Xiaoyu's heart set off a storm.
It wasn't just wood burning in the bonfire, it was constantly twisting and struggling in the raging fire, but it was tightly bound by iron chains, and it was the humans captured by the alien race from Huaguan City, no matter where they were found, all of them were humans.
An Xiaoyu watched as these guys brought four humans from afar, built a bonfire in the open space in front of the hotel, and placed an iron frame with a few stakes in the bonfire. Judging by their skillful movements and tried and tested tools, it's certainly not the first time they've done this kind of thing.
The human beings were captured from Huaguan City and brought to the front of the iron shelf. When they saw this scene, they seemed to have realized what kind of fate they would become. But no one struggled, no one wanted to escape, because they all knew that it was impossible for them to escape.
Even if you run away, where can you flee to? They are just ordinary people, even if they run for a lifetime, I am afraid it is impossible to run out of the territory of the alien race. So, what's the difference even if you run away? It is nothing more than being executed by aliens in other places, by other means.
Compared with other methods, such as being cooked alive, or being torn raw, watching the alien race chew on their arms or thighs, this end may also be the best, turning into a handful of dust, which can be regarded as the traditional destination of human beings.
So they were tied to iron shelves, and fire oil was splashed on them, and the aliens around them were all excited, and they shouted and threatened. The little girl who couldn't get An Xiaoyu's hands, they used this way to vent their anger and fear, in exchange for crazy joy.
The bonfire was soon lit amid cheers, and the flames flew high, and the black smoke gradually filled, and the whole scene was smoky. An Xiaoyu was at the window, clenched her fists, looked at the scene outside the window, and saw the struggle of the four humans inside the flames.
Their mouths were so plugged that they couldn't make a sound, their teeth had been crushed, and their tongues had been cut off. In the flames, their distorted expressions were revealed, An Xiaoyu actually saw a trace of happiness in such an expression?
At the last moment of their lives, these people, who had been almost numb to the point of losing their souls for half a lifetime, finally felt their presence in pain when the flames came to them. The cheers outside brought them a farewell, sending them off and going to a place they wanted to go.
An Xiaoyu's teeth creaked.
Witnessing such a tragedy, she couldn't do anything, it was like a heavy sledgehammer slamming into Lou's chest, her heart trembled violently, and the blood veins in her body were boiling. But she can't do anything, definitely can't do it lightly.
Now that the entire Huaguan City is already excited, An Xiaoyu saved Yanya before this, and there may be a legitimate reason to say that Cheng Yanya is her entourage. But now, things have reached such a punishment, once An Xiaoyu plans to save these four people, he will immediately become the enemy of the entire alien territory.
Because of the identities of these four people, it is likely that they are all slaves of a different race in the city. Slaves do not have the right to their own lives, their lives belong to their masters, so as long as their masters agree to the execution of these fellows, then their lives should be taken away, this is alien territory.
Even if An Xiaoyu saves them, what can they do? At that time, as long as the four major races of Huaguan City come forward, these four people will still have to return to the hands of those slave owners, if they plan to break out, I am afraid that even An Xiaoyu himself will not be able to run out, and they will also implicate Yinggert and Lianya.
Therefore, An Xiaoyu could only watch as his compatriots were mercilessly burned to death, slowly turned into four charcoals, stopped struggling, had no expression, his eyes turned into blood, and finally quietly dissipated his soul in the blazing heat.
An Xiaoyu didn't look away, she watched, and kept seeing it from beginning to end. Until the flames were gone, and the aliens were gone, the ashes of the bonfire emitted remnants of green smoke in the light of the law lamp, and the four twisted black corpses hung on the iron shelves, still in a painful posture.
The city defenders came and tried to take the four bodies away. But An Xiaoyu only waved her hand slightly, only to hear the sound of earth and rocks churning, and the floor under the entire clearing was covered with green ones. The defenders of the city were startled and hurriedly retreated, leaving the range of the land to be turned over.
The surrounding aliens were all looking at the scene in front of them in shock, only to see a few branches suddenly grow under the stone bricks, growing rapidly, and relying on the power of plants, the entire huge iron frame was crushed, and the chains were torn off, wrapping the four corpses.
A huge banyan tree grew out of the ground, hiding all four corpses under the roots, hiding inside the trunk, and the lush canopy of the tree rose high and stretched out, covering the clearing and the nearby streets, and then it stopped growing.
The growth of the banyan tree did not affect the traffic of the entire city, but only occupied the vacant lot and buried the four charred corpses. It even provides a spacious green field in the middle of the city, making the whole open space even more beautiful.
The city defenders looked at each other, but in the end they didn't make a sound.
An Xiaoyu looked at the canopy of the tree that extended in front of her window, gently reached out, picked a tender green leaf from the branch, and clenched it tightly in the palm of her hand, her eyes were no longer full of their previous brilliance.
Ever since she came to the alien territory, An Xiaoyu has been looking at everything that happens in this world with a bystander attitude. Whether it is a fight between different races or the seizure of treasures, An Xiaoyu feels that no matter what he does here, the affairs of the other race have little to do with him.
But now, An Xiaoyu understands that there is no real detachment in this world. Fusheng lived in seclusion in the mountains for more than 20 years, and finally took on the heavy responsibility of the Four Lives Alliance. After entering the WTO, Fusheng did not have his own calmness, just like the current An Xiaoyu.
When you see a lot of things, experience a lot of things, and find that these things are around you, and you can't change them, and you can only do your best to make yourself have a clear conscience, you are already a person in this world, you can't change it, and it's irrefutable.
An Xiaoyu laughed at herself, and she was still naΓ―ve to think that most of the alien races might not have any real hostility towards humans. It was the commercial atmosphere of Gamai City and the respect of the Aiken people that gave her the illusion, it was the ignorance of Shadowgett that gave her the illusion, and it was the fact that she had seen too few humans in the alien territory that gave her the illusion.
Now, the illusion is gone.
She already knew that no matter where she was, an alien race was an alien race, and a human being was a human race. Of course, there are good existences of alien races, but their existence is only for alien races. And human beings, in the eyes of any alien race, are always dirty, lowly, ugly, and their natural hatred of the aggregate.
"So, no matter what the race fight really is, there is no right or wrong, because it is pathetic and ugly, both for humans and for aliens. Such ugliness can only disappear if Party B is completely torn apart. β
The administrator's voice ringed in his head.
An Xiaoyu spread out her hand, looked at the leaf in her palm, sighed helplessly, put the leaf into the bag, and regained her calm.
Yan Ya was lying on the bed and reading and reading, An Xiaoyu didn't let her see the scene below, but she felt that Yan Ya might have been stuck enough. But being able to persist in stubbornness and human tenacity in such a situation, Iwaya is a very good child.
An Xiaoyu has discovered that she has been playing the twilight elf these days, and she seems to be a little confused when she feels the convenience brought by the identity of the twilight elf. In such an environment, surrounded by aliens, and playing the role of a foreign race, it is easy to have such an illusion and mistakenly think that you are also one of them.
But now An Xiaoyu understands that she will never be a member of the alien race, but a human race. From now on, she will spend her next days in alien territory with an absolutely human mindset, and Iwanya will be the one by her side to remind her of her identity.
As if sensing An Xiaoyu's gaze, Yan Ya raised his little head and looked at An Xiaoyu suspiciously. An Xiaoyu smiled, reached out and touched the little girl's head, but did not speak.
As night fell, just as Ann Xiaoyu woke up, Shadowgot already in action with the city defenders. The defenders of the city used the formation method to make a positioning stone, and Shadowgot only needed to carry this stone with them, so that they could find Shadowgatet's location at any time without losing their bearings.
At the same time, Shadow Got was also aware of Ning's Shadow Law throughout the city, and once it found an abnormality in the Shadow Law somewhere, it would immediately rush over. For such an opponent, Shadow Gert did not dare to relax, and carefully walked through the shadows.
A black shadow quietly approached a certain residence in Huaguan City, a sharp shadow, like a spire. It silently made its way through the streets, dodging the patrols on the road, peering between the windows, watching the aliens inside, and then quietly leaving again.
No one knows how it chooses its targets, and none of the previous three alien families have any connection with each other. Different races, different regions of life, and different social circles. Therefore, the city defenders have always believed that this shadow is just trying to disrupt the entire Huaguan City by doing these things.
But obviously, shadow selection targets have their own methods. What is it watching through the window? Perhaps no one knows except it. It walked silently through the night by itself, and finally revealed its smiling face with three cracks.
Such a scene is simply creepy, but there is no alien to see. I saw it turn around, turn into a black line and rush into the window, and began its work today. Blood was flying, bodies were torn apart, and shadows were laughing happily and silently.
Shadow Gert turned his head sharply, turned into a black shadow, and rushed towards the scene of the crime. At the same time, the city defenders also saw the rapid movement of Shadow Gett on the positioning stone, and they immediately realized that Shadow Got had found the other party's trace!
The entire Huaguan City suddenly moved, the footsteps of the city defenders resounded in the streets, and countless soldiers chased in the direction of Shadow Gett's advance, almost at the same time, Shadow Got to the side of the house, and the city defenders also surrounded this house.
Shadowgot nodded to the leader of the city defenders, and at the leader's order, a dozen kobolds rushed out of the group, slamming steel nails into the ground around the house, and several lava elves followed closely with hammers in their hands, slamming the steel nails into the ground.
As the steel nails entered the ground, the power of the laws began to spread, whether it was on or off the ground, and the blockade net was suddenly formed. Shadow Gert could feel that it was indeed an enchantment that could fight against the Law of Shadow, and it could completely seal the Shadow in the formation.
Sure enough, hearing the movement outside, the ghost figure who had just finished killing came out of the window, and after leaving a bloody handprint on the wall, he found that there were many aliens surrounded by him. It grimaced, shuddered, laughed twice, and turned to leave.
However, as it crossed the ground, the shadow slammed into the barrier.
The ghost seemed a little confused, it clung to the ground, looking at the barrier in front of it, the smile on its face was gone, replaced by puzzlement, and then anger. Extreme rage! It's actually trapped! Invincible, it's actually trapped?!
The ghost slammed into the barrier, only to find that it didn't move. In an instant, the ghost became almost invisible, burrowing into the cracks in the floor, scurrying through the cracks, looking for a way out, but still nothing.
The formation of steel nails forms a completely enclosed space, and it is impossible for any shadow to leave.
The ghost was finally completely enraged, it roared silently, it began to grow larger, it became its original form, and then it was still getting bigger. The shadows were expanding, and the black enveloped more and more places, covering the ground, covering the houses, and then extending upwards along the barrier, as if trying to use the expansion to stretch the barrier open.
But obviously, the expansion of the shadow doesn't actually do any harm to the enchantment. The shadow of the ghost fills the barrier and turns it into a giant black balloon. The shadows flowed and writhed, trying to rush out, but there was still no way to break free.
After struggling for a moment, the shadow shrank and changed into its original form, clinging to the wall, looking at the aliens around him, and the expression on his face with three cracks was very angry.
What the hell is this? Even Shadow Gert was starting to get confused, it had never seen such a shadow before. And from what it looks like just now, it is a shadow without sound, and it has no substance, so it can only move on a flat surface, and cannot be separated from it to become three-dimensional.
The city defenders looked at the scene in front of them and were also a little overwhelmed. They did have a formation ready to trap the Law of Shadow, but that was only to prevent the aliens who used the Law of Shadow from using the Shadow to escape. But what did they catch now? A truly alive shadow?
All subsequent methods do not work, because they just want to control the other party, and then after killing the main body, they can solve any shadow problems. But now, the other party is just a shadow, what should I do? The city defenders consulted with each other and decided to try it with light.
So the law lamp was brought, and the huge light law crystallization emitted energy, and countless rays of light turned all the places in the entire enchantment white, so that the whole place was free of any shadow. In this way, they hope to completely annihilate their existence as shadows.
However, no matter how the light shone, it seemed that this shadow was not affected at all, but because the surrounding environment became brighter, the strange face was actually clearer. What exactly is the essence of this thing? All the aliens are starting to get curious.
Seeing that they were actually planning to use the light against themselves, the ghost seemed to be very angry, and he opened his teeth and claws at the aliens around him, changing his size all the time, and seemed to be more energetic.
There was nothing left for the defenders of the city, and the kobold leader looked at Shadowgot, as if asking for help. Shadow Got sneered: "I have already said, my duty is only to guard the side of the adult, and now because you are not doing well, but my family is being harassed, I only accept the order of the adult to help you find this ghost." At the beginning, you yourself said that as long as I find it, you will solve the rest of the matter, what? Now that you have no choice, will you want me to help you? β
The kobold smiled bitterly, and said helplessly: "Strengthen the barrier, don't let it escape, I'll go and ask the garrison chief." β
Therefore, the city defenders could only use all the means they had prepared before to blockade and prevent the ghosts from escaping. The ghost also seemed to realize that these guys had nothing to do with him, so he became even more arrogant, and even began to swim leisurely in the enchantment.
Shadowgot had vanished in place.
