XIII. Competition
Lamia makes contact with Salvador, and Willis stops Yune between the ruins of the building. The good thing about the city is that tall buildings obscure everything, the roads are so chaotic that even Yune won't be easily spotted, and robbers usually don't take the trouble to patrol.
Lamia and I walked into the park.
The grass is waist-high, and the trees grow like warlords vying for territory, and even if they grow into strange shapes, they have to squeeze through the rest of the trees to get more sunlight. I've read books from a hundred years ago that parks were supposed to be places of relaxation, and now entering a park is like going on an adventure into the rainforest. Those branches are sharper than knives, and if you are not careful, you will scratch your face.
I said, "Who are you, Salvador?" β
Lamia said, "Subordinate." β
I said, "Is it really a subordinate?" I think the two of you are too close. β
Lamia said, "What are you thinking? β
I said, "He must be important, otherwise why would you risk saving him?" β
Lamia replied: "I am responsible for the lives of each of them, and I don't want to pay a pension, and I can save one of them." β
I asked, "Will you want me anymore?" β
Lamia couldn't help but laugh, she said, "So, who are you?" β
I said, "I am your loyal subordinate!" You are my best friend. Moreover, I feel that you are more like my relative, my long-lost sister. β
The key to being a person is to have a sweet mouth, and the more intimate I call her, the more she will value me. As for what I think, that's another matter, at least on the surface.
This is my precious wisdom, my ancient experience, my cruel experience, and if she accepts my "affection", that Salvador will have to stand aside. If she doesn't accept it, she will feel guilty, and she will be more sympathetic and partial.
This is a bitter love drama, a hundred years ago the book said that women eat this set, and this trick will melt the kinetic energy of the iceberg. Is this despicable? No, it's this world that is despicable, and I just follow the rules of this world, wandering between the bottom limits. Captain Lamia is only one of my stepping stones, but he is a good, respectable stepping stone that cannot be abandoned.
When I saw that she was indifferent, I said, "Sir, the promise you have made me endure a long drought has given me hope of survival. Come, give me your hand, and look into my eyes, and feel my heart, and understand my will, and call me brother, and pour out your heart to me, and tell me that you will entrust your life to me, just as I will entrust your life to you. β
Lamia reached out to me, and the punch was so hard.
She said, "It's noisy. β
I was groggy for a moment, thinking that it wasn't my plan that had failed, but that I had just rushed it.
Wait, Stepping Stone Chief, wait, and that Salvador, don't be complacent, I'm eyeing you, and the deputy's seat is mine.
Salvador appears under round arches, on a corridor paved with black bricks. He also has a black cape, black leather armor, and black leather pants.
At first glance, El Salvador is the kind of bad guy who uses flattery and unscrupulous means to deceive women and girls. He has eyes that are easy to win the favor of women, a nose bridge that is easy to win the favor of women, and skin that is easy to win the favor of women.... All in all, he's like a modern-day version of Don Juan, who is always working out.
I was at once very vigilant, and every heartstring was tensed, for a handsome, slightly gloomy young man like this could easily attract a beautiful girl as strong and haughty as Lamia, and it would have been almost unimaginable if they had never had an affair with each other.
Especially now, the little bastard looked at Lamia, and his eyes were dripping.
He said, "Sister." β
Furious by this affectionate title, I stepped forward and said, "Is your sister your name too?" Who do you think you are? β
Lamia stopped twenty meters from El Salvador and said, "Brother. β
Are they really brothers and sisters? I didn't expect that.
As the saying goes: shoot a man before a horse, and capture a thief before a king.
I squeezed out a smile and said, "Nice to meet you, Salvador." β
I tried to walk up and shake hands, but Lamia stopped me, and I noticed that the terrain here was very easy to ambush, and there was high ground on both sides where snipers could be arranged. Where Lamia stood, a tree sheltered us.
Lamia said, "Why did you do that? β
Her voice was cold.
Salvador said: "They .... They caught Betty, and they said I would if.... I'm not afraid of death, sister, but Betty she..."
Lamia said, "Who are they? β
Salvatore said: "It's Kira and their gang, and... Demon. β
I heard a whoosh, Salvador was shot in the left leg, and he fell to the ground in pain, but Lamia was unmoved, she took my hand, and we hid behind a pillar.
I heard a man laughing, and he shouted, "Don't you care if your brother lives or dies?" And what about poor Betty? β
My mind was confused, and I asked, "Where is this?" β
Someone shot at the roof, the pillars were smashed into stone chips, and Lamia said, "Kira! Are you trying to snatch Yune? β
The man named Kira said, "Of course, my dear! Yune can't fall into the hands of your team, so our lab can use it. From the time you went out of the city, I sent men to follow you, and the credit is mine. β
Lamia said, "Is it the storm that has caused you to lose us?" β
Kira said, "Luckily, the person I still caught you is still your sweet little brother." You haven't come out to see yet? He's running dry. β
Lamia thought for a moment and said, "Old Wei has been trying to contact you? β
Kira said, "You're too smart, my dear. "They fired continuously, and there was a lot of noise, and I was a little afraid that the pillar would not be able to support it.
Immediately after, I heard the roar of demons, and some white demons emerged from the woods and headed straight for us.
Can they control demons? Forcing demons to haunt during the day?
Lamia drew her gun and aimed it at the demon's eye, she had run out of Excalibur bullets, which belonged to the Charon mercenaries in Ulysses' lab, and she fired five or six shots in a row to knock one out. I held my breath and focused, but the recoil was so strong that I missed half of it.
The demon soon approached us, and I hastily swallowed the water of Amun and disappeared from sight. Lamia threw away her spear and drew the long sword of the captain of the Sword and Shield Society, the sword flashed with blue light, and Lamia slashed it, and the long sword sliced the demon's head open like a watermelon.
Lamia took a step back, a surprised smile flashing across her lips. This sword is really amazingly sharp, what kind of metal is it made of?
Another demon slammed into Lamia, and Lamia leaned on the pillar, and her body catapulted out, and the demon broke the pillar, and the stone on it collapsed, and the demon was smashed, and Lamia jumped up, and with a sword, it was crippled. More demons are coming, and Lamia leads them through narrow paths so as not to be surrounded.
I took advantage of the stealth to go around to the side of their ambush and climbed into the house, where I saw six rangers, crouched on the eaves and pointing their guns at the battlefield. I didn't have a good view from this angle, and they didn't see my movements.
I smeared poison on the dagger and stabbed two men in the neck first, and they were quickly poisoned. The other four shouted, "Behind you! Behind! "Turning around, I knew they couldn't see me, at most they could see a vague and transparent shadow. I killed one more and the other three swept around, and it was so thrilling that I was almost injured and had to go around to the other side of the roof.
One of them, a short-haired middle-aged man with a mustache and sunglasses, was Kira, who said, "The enemy will be invisible!" He will demonic supernatural abilities! β
The other two were very nervous, holding their guns and shouting, "Sir, he is also reformed?" β
Kira removed his sunglasses, his eyes were completely different, his right eye was like a red demon, several times larger than his left eye, and it was shiny red. He pointed his gun at where I was standing, and I immediately jumped downstairs, the wind whisking up from the bullets passing over my head.
This man has been transplanted with the eyes of the red devil, and he can see the invisible me, so he can manipulate the white demon.
Kira cursed loudly, and quickly chased after him, his physical strength was far stronger than ordinary people, and he almost only rushed a few steps, and he was only ten meters away from me. I hid behind a tree, waited for a second, and as soon as Kira's head appeared, I immediately stabbed the dagger.
Kira's left palm also changed, turning into the giant claw of the red demon, and he broke the whole tree at once, and I fell five or six meters, and the blood on my head wet my eyes.
Kira was a complete monster, he was still mostly human, but his left hand and left eye belonged to the red demon, especially the left hand, whose nails touched the ground.
I reluctantly asked, "You.... Not human? β
Kira said, "I am Superman, a Superman who can fight against demons!" Lamia is just like me, and you! You too! Suddenly, he leapt in this direction, and his claws were about to pierce me.
Bang.
He shook his head and was shot, and I saw Lamia standing on the side, her marksmanship was excellent, and she was able to hit targets moving at high speeds. Kira's temple began to bleed, and he took a step back, and Lamia shot him in the throat again. Kira covered his wounds and fled as fast as he could.
Lamia walked up to me and asked, "How's it going?" β
I said, "Sir, you are really, I am going to clean him up soon, why are you stealing the limelight from me?" β
I don't want to show weakness, after all, I am likely to stand at the peak of power in the future, so I should not let her be taken lightly.
Lamia smiled and helped me to my feet. She then walked to Salvador's side.
Salvatore said: "Sister, I.... I'm sorry..."
Lamia hugged Salvador and treated his wounds with injections. This would have been a good opportunity to fall into the ground, but first, El Salvador is Lamia's relative, as the saying goes, relatives don't have overnight feuds, even if I sow discord, I'm afraid it will only have the opposite effect. Second, El Salvador is already in my hands, and he cannot threaten my position as a confidant of Lamia, and he will be forgiving and forgiving. Thirdly, Salvador is a weak fool at first sight, his mind is no match for me, the wolf of the desert, on the contrary, he can be used by me.
Salvatore said: "I have to save Betty." β
I couldn't help but say, "Are you ashamed? β
Salvatore glared at me and said, "What? β
I said, "You almost killed your own sister, my dearest sir, and you still have the face to make a request?" β
Salvatore bowed his head and said, "I know, but Betty.... Sister, you know Betty she's my fiancΓ©e. β
Lamia said, "Fishbones, take the Eye of Odin, and check the traces of Betty." β
