Chapter 253: Helpless Trust
Originally, my next plan was to find the whereabouts of Sky Castle, and I thought Mina would be there.
But the forty-two that fell from the sky made me understand that my guesses were not so accurate every time. He mentions Mina, and what seems to be an almost fatal injury is also Mina's gift. I didn't get any more information, and Forty-Two fainted again after saying Mina's arrival.
"It seems that your words are not accurate every time." Sure enough, Du Youlan complained about this matter for the first time.
"That's not the point right now, is it, girl? You said Mina had hurt him like this, why didn't you just kill him? ”
"How do I know that I'm not her. But maybe he escaped before he died? The ability to jump in space, even if the combat effectiveness is not good, the escape should be very powerful. Du Youlan responded.
"No ......"
"'No' what?"
"He didn't run away. If he wanted to escape, based on his spatial jumping ability, Mina's team, of all the people I knew so far, had no one hurt forty-two. I've always suspected that Mina knows the weakness of Forty-Two's abilities, and she should have a way to kill Forty-Two easily. "Speaking of which, I looked around, wrapped in darkness, and at first glance, it seemed as if there were only three of us in this area of yellow sand. But I'm not going to stay here long, "Let's get out of here quickly and find a place to stay nearby, I suspect Mina will chase after me." ”
"Isn't that better, you want to see her so much."
I shook my head, "Seeing her has never been the goal, and now I'm even more curious about why she suddenly came to the Sand Sea Secret Realm." Check the results of my placement? If that were the case, she should have come a long time ago. Or you don't need me in the first place. ”
"So what do you mean......" Du Youlan seemed to gradually understand what I really thought.
"It should be running for forty-two."
Speaking of which, I looked at Forty-Two, whose skin was open and fleshy, and whose injuries were extremely bloody. For the first time, I could clearly see the venom of the king worm hidden in his flesh and blood, which was so close to me that it was within reach.
"Greedy guy, are you trying to absorb his poison?" Du Youlan saw through my thoughts again.
I was curious about this from the beginning, and after I roughly knew his ability to jump in space, I yearned for it even more, this ability is extremely strong, and if it is used well, it can save a lot of trouble. Just like Du Youlan said, at least it won't be difficult to escape. This is also why Forty-two is obviously not the opponent of the Yuan General, but he can get out under the Yuan General's hands every time.
"I have this idea......," I nodded, still a little apprehensive in my heart, and the golden heart seemed to be faintly beating.
"But what are you hesitating about? I'm really curious about this. Du Youlan asked.
"I'm wondering, Mina is here for him, could it be because of his special abilities? I yearn for this power, but at least for now...... I can't touch him for the time being. ”
So, I eventually gave up on the idea.
"Oh, that's a lot of thinking. Maybe he was restrained because of this ability. ”
The car has broken down, which greatly affects the speed of our actions. Fortunately, the neighborhood soon arrived at the service area, I changed Forty-two's clothes, wiped off the bloodstains, and his own injuries were also recovered by Wang Worm's strong self-healing ability. So the three of us stayed at the hotel in the service area.
About two hours later, Forty-Two woke up, and the first thing he did when he woke up was to grab me by the collar, "You...... Isn't it...... Did you move my poison? ”
Actually, I guessed it.
From the first time we met, he was very concerned about whether I would assimilate and absorb his abilities.
"Yes, I have the idea, but I don't want to steal it." I also defend my image occasionally.
He stared at me for a long time, and finally let go.
After all, even if I really took his ability, at this moment, he couldn't change anything.
"The injury is quite serious, I thought that with your ability, if you didn't want to kill yourself, you would hardly be injured." I started chatting with him, of course, to ask about what happened to him to Mina, "so I really didn't expect Mina to be so powerful." ”
But what I didn't expect was that my question was exchanged for a rhetorical question from Forty-two, "Huh...... Do you think you really understand what I'm capable of? ”
"I see it." I responded.
Forty-two smiled coldly, "What did you see?" Shuttling through the five gates? Space jumping? ”
"Isn't it?"
"If she was, she wouldn't really hurt me. But it's a pity ......" Speaking of this, he seemed to wave his finger a little proudly, "It's a pity that it's really a little different from your guess." ”
I don't know if he's playing tricks or telling the truth.
But this question cannot be proved for the time being, so I asked the next question, "How did you meet her?" If I'm not mistaken, you're probably chasing Silly Seven. "Old Friends Bookstore
Speaking of this, Forty-Two's face was full of mixed expressions, remorse, pain, hatred......
I was even tired from his facial muscles.
He was silent for a long time before responding, "It's on the way to chase that bastard...... She was here a long time ago, I should have known, but alas, I didn't make it to the last hurdle. Otherwise, there may be a way to ......"
"So, she's really here for you?"
Forty-two frowned, and then a cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Of course she came for me, she chased me for so long and never gave up." ”
"Haha......"
"What are you laughing at?" His brow furrowed even tighter, and his eyes became more confused, "Why are you smiling?" ”
"I don't think you need to keep pretending. I don't know if Mina is chasing you or not, but you should be chasing her for a long time, right? ”
He didn't respond.
So, I said something important, "I originally planned to leave Huangxia City and go to her and go to Sky City, but I really didn't expect that she would come here. ”
Sure enough, those four words entered Forty-Two's ears, and his expression changed again, "God...... Castle in the sky? You, who the hell are you? Aren't you Zoraku? Or are you...... Is that him? ”
"You just left a little early, I'm from the Yellow Spring, I know this."
Yellow Springs.
These three words came out, as if he had given Forty-Two a stimulant, and he became excited, even a little uncontrollable. It took me about an hour to tell him everything I had released and what I had seen.
“…… That's why I had the idea to find the castle in the sky, and I thought Mina would be there. You and I have never been enemies, you have said this to me many times, but this time, I said it to you. But you can not believe me, it doesn't matter. I just want to know why Mina is looking for you, why she is so desperate to find you, or should I say catch you, at this time. ”
He gradually calmed down, but did not answer immediately. I didn't rush and gave him a lot of time, and at some point, he spoke slowly, and said the answer that I couldn't understand for a while, "She...... I want to use my ability to transfer the Sky City and make the Sky City and the Sand Sea Secret Realm become one. ”
"Why would she do that?"
"I don't know, how can I, a traitor, know so much. But I can understand it with my ass, it's still to spread the insect venom......" Speaking of this, his expression suddenly became painful, "That egg was still stretched out by you in the secret realm, right?" ”
"That's what I'm trying to do."
"Huh...... In fact, I thought that at the last moment, I could use my ability to destroy that egg, but unfortunately, I blamed me for underestimating that madman. ”
"I know, but I'm not going to let you do that."
"It's come to this, and it's useless to talk about it."
"What exactly are you capable of?" Again, I mentioned this issue.
Forty-two shook his head, "I won't tell you, I can't see through you, you keep saying that you are inseparable from Mina, but everything you have done so far is to help her." Although you are not by Mina's side now, it is not good to say that after knowing my ability, the idea of surrender suddenly came to you. ”
"Seriously, you and that madman are a bit like that maniac sometimes, always so contradictory. Well, in that case, I won't force you. We need to cooperate. ”
"Cooperation?"
"Yes, cooperation. Mina is our enemy, common, but like you said, I do have some differences with you. I don't have to kill Mina, now my goal is Castle in the Sky. Since Mina wants to merge the two, all I have to do is destroy it. And you know where that place is, you have to tell me. ”
"Heh......" Forty-two smiled, but smiled disdainfully, "You also call cooperation?" I seem to be only giving a clue unilaterally. ”
"How is it not cooperation? If I destroy the castle in the sky, Mina will be very annoyed, she is not happy, aren't you happy? ”
"You dog, aren't you afraid of problems with Mina's hostages this time?"
She didn't know I did it. Like I saved you, does she know? "I'm a little confident about this, at least because I can't see people in the vicinity and can't smell insects. Because I have absorbed the eggs, I am at least on the same level as Mina, and I can smell her, and even if Mina uses a mysterious perfume that hides the smell of the king worm, the smell will also be noticed by me.
In fact, there is no 100% guarantee that everything I did was not noticed by her. After all, in addition to destroying Sky City, I also think that if Silent Night was still alive, it should not be carried by Mina. There's a good chance she's hidden in Mina's lair.
Of course, this time I admit that the speculation about this matter is very inaccurate. But I have no way to do the best of both worlds.
"Right...... She wants to catch me so much, and it seems that it is difficult for you to stop her, since she has not done it for a long time, there is a high probability that she has lost my trace. Anyway, it seems that I can only trust you in my current situation. But don't expect me to go with you, who knows if it's a trap or not? After that, I will also disappear, after all, in this world, I am the only one who can make Mina successfully transfer the city in the sky. Even if she wanted to create a second me, it would take a long time. ”
