Guardian Chapter 125: Erased Existence
Mercury just fell silent suddenly, and stood motionless. It's like thinking, or it's hard to digest this remark for a while.
"You mean, my puppet...... In any case, it can't compare to the original puppeteer. ”
In the backlight, Mercury's face could not be seen.
At this moment, she is like a talking doll, with the cutest appearance and a beautiful voice, saying lifeless words.
"I didn't mean to compare Talos to your puppet, your puppet has your own style, you don't have to be a long or short with Talos, do you?"
It cannot be denied that Rin Rin's words have a certain amount of comfort. Although she is not familiar with Mercury, it can be seen that Mercury seems to have a strong obsession with dolls.
This obsession allows Rinrin, a bystander, to clearly perceive the danger contained in it.
At this time, Mercury's body seemed to tremble slightly, she lifted the small umbrella in her hand, and in the sun, the little face that seemed to have baby fat had not completely faded, smiled again.
"Because, that's an existence that I can't surpass. That...... Just let it disappear completely. ”
The smile was as sweet as the spring flowers blooming in March, but it made Rin who heard these words feel as dangerous as a sharp knife on his neck.
Suddenly, with a wave of his hand, a strong wind swept in, galloping towards Rin's location!
Originally, it was not difficult to dodge such a gust of wind, but at the same time, standing in the other direction, the puppet sent by Mercury to block Rin's way actually shot at the same time, instantly forming a double-sided attack pattern.
Rin sat on her knees, knowing full well that the target of the two of them was Talos, not herself.
If she wants to be alone, it shouldn't be difficult.
But......
Faced with the onslaught from front to back, Rin barely had time to think about it. In the flash of lightning, Rin suddenly leaned down and hugged Talos tightly.
At the same time, with the power of the contract between the two, they quickly turned into a shield and tried to stop this sudden attack!
But because both sides were extremely fast, even though the cold spirit shield had been raised, there was still a moment of wind blades grazing her cheeks.
In an instant, a trace of blood oozed from the originally smooth skin.
'Plop-'
The heart fluttered violently.
The look on Rinrin's face turned pale in an instant.
Thinking that Talos would not wake up, she would not be able to use the power of the two-person contract. I didn't expect that not only can I use it now, but the side effects of this kind of spiritual power being eaten back are a little stronger.
It was as if someone had suddenly choked her throat and frantically sucked the blood in her body.
The heart rises and falls violently, as if it is overwhelmed, and it will explode at any moment because it cannot bear such manic pressure.
"Rin, give it to me. I can give you the doll I made, whether it's exactly the same appearance or the look you like, I can give you ......"
Mercury spoke, as if he were consulting her.
"I never promised to hand over Talos to you, did I?"
"But you agreed, and you want to lend it to me."
"I promised, but that's what you call ...... Borrow? Rin reached out and rubbed her thumb against her injured cheek. A splash of bright red remained in her palm.
Mercury laughed silently, for she herself could not explain the sudden change.
I thought that as long as she had Talos and the puppet of the first puppeteer, she would be able to take its essence and make a puppet that could be comparable.
But it turns out that everything is not as simple as she imagined.
"I have great respect for your father, and I want to be able to make a puppet like him one day. Not a cold weapon like me. ”
Mercury looked at the black-haired doll in front of her, although her eyebrows were similar to Talos's, and even she was detailed enough to portray Talos's clear eyes.
But what cannot be changed is the fact that imitations are only imitations after all......
It's just that Rin's words also made her realize a fact. That is, there is no puppet master in this world, and there is no so-called 'imitation'.
After all, in this world, there is only one puppeteer like her.
Thinking of this, Mercury suddenly glanced at the puppet in front of him. I saw that the black-haired puppet immediately understood, pulled out a soft sword from his wrist, and stabbed Rin fiercely!
The sword is hidden in the joints of the puppet in the form of a soft body, and it does not affect the movement on weekdays, but it can be silently drawn out when necessary.
I have to say that Mercury has really put a lot of effort into the actual combat function of armed dolls.
Some of the subtle hidden weapons, as well as the sweat blades hidden in them, are the key to killing enemies or Jedi counterattacks at any time during battle.
Compared to Rinrin's father, perhaps the puppet of mercury is what the association and the so-called war need.
After the soft sword was withdrawn from the wrist, it immediately became indistinguishable from ordinary weapons, and even sharper, several times thinner.
The blade slammed into the awe-inspiring spirit shield, and the two forces collided in a splash like sparks.
Rin clutched his chest, forcibly suppressing the violent throbbing in his chest.
This is not an option, she must protect herself while also being able to defend Talos!
Rin attached her hand to the ground, a faint glow emanating from the area around her palm. The empty palm suddenly clenched, and the long sword was pulled up from the formation that had been temporarily summoned from the surface.
She stood up and swung at the sword that was still struggling with the spirit shield!
The crisp sound of copper and iron colliding was extremely harsh, and it broke the silence of the courtyard in an instant.
That's it, one person, one couple. They faced each other with swords, clashing and confronting each other at a speed that was difficult for the naked eye to capture.
Mercury watched this scene quietly and did not intervene, because she had already decided in her heart that Rin would lose.
Even though the puppet she makes has no emotion and is always cold, it will never lose to others easily in actual combat.
The green leaves of the courtyard rustled in the shadows of the two swords, and countless bamboo leaves were shaken by the spiritual power, falling down in a row, and soon a layer of emerald green was scattered on the ground.
The shadows of the trees around the body changed from dark green to withered yellow, from withered yellow to snow accumulation. It was only a few seconds, but in this courtyard, it was like the four seasons had passed.
"Rin, what do you think of my yard?"
Mercury sat slowly down the corridor, talking to Rin, but his eyes were fixed on Talos, who was still protected by the spirit shield.
"This yard was built for me by Chi Yi. It will manifest itself in various seasons according to the changes in the spiritual power around me and my own needs. ”
"I didn't expect Ikemeichi's heart to be quite fine."
Rin Rin's attention was all on the blade in front of him, and he didn't have time to pay too much attention to Mercury's words.
"Well, Chi Yi has been with me for many years. Since he was very young, he was arranged to be by my family's very Yunyin Association...... Surveillance. ”
At the last two words, the watermark paused.
"Surveillance?"
Rin didn't understand the meaning of her words for a while, it stands to reason that Mercury is the only puppet master in this world, and it is too late to be protected like a baby, how can she be monitored.
"So, a lot of things in this world are not as simple as the eyes see."
Mercury's expression was calm, as if watching a play, watching with interest the details of Rinrin's confrontation with his puppet, and the small umbrella in his hand turned gently from time to time.
Why can't she make a puppet like the first puppeteer, why is her puppet always so cold, just like herself, no temperature, no life.
Why is it that no matter how good Chi Yi is to herself, she is estranged.
All of this is just because for the Cloud Hidden Association, she is just a tool responsible for making armed dolls.
For Mercury, her world is only this courtyard.
Regardless of her identity, information, connection with the outside world, all kinds of things related to her have been cleared under the handling of the association.
Spring, summer, autumn and winter, the four seasons change. As if everything in the outside world has nothing to do with her, she went from the initial loneliness, to habit, and finally devoted herself to the production of dolls.
Because she knows that the only ones who can accompany her are them.
I learned that the puppets of the original puppeteer were warm, not just cold weapons for battle. Mercury also wants to have such a puppet, an existence with flesh and blood that can accompany him like a human.
But she didn't know about the original puppets that no longer existed, and over time, this obsession began to distort.
Distorted into the mood that originally wanted to be accompanied by someone, it gradually turned into jealousy, and wanted to surpass the radicalism of the first puppeteer.
"It's almost there, I'm a little tired of it." Mercury yawned and whispered to the puppet in the courtyard that was still fighting Rin.
"Yes, master."
With a response, Rin seemed to anticipate something, and immediately dodged under the corridor.
But the puppet suddenly threw the long sword in his hand away, and the long sword grazed Rin Rin's side. But she didn't think the other party would make such a low-level aiming mistake.
Sure enough, I saw the long sword pierced into one of the stakes on the long corridor. The thin blade seemed to melt on the stake, slowly seeping through and disappearing before Rinrin's eyes.
'Click-'
A sound of a bamboo tube filled with water and falling lightly came.
It was as if a splash of water had fallen to the floor of the courtyard, and somehow there was a ripple.
Rin suddenly found that there seemed to be a spiritual power faintly gathering under his feet, and the environment he was in was obviously surrounded by a layer of enchantment.
Suddenly, a sharp blade rose from the ground and stabbed violently!
Rin was caught off guard and fell to the ground, but fortunately she reacted quickly enough to dodge and roll over.
However, this is only the beginning.
In the next moment, countless blades rushed like a torrent of mountains, and one after another madness flew in. The speed is faster and faster, and the blades are sharper and sharper!
'Boom-'
Suddenly, a loud bang came from the depths of the mansion, like an explosion, and the ground under the shaking ground shook visibly.
Smoke billowed from an unknown room behind the corridor, and the whole mansion seemed to have been on fire, except for the black smoke that filled the air, and the smell of scorching in the air.
"Mercury, be sensible!"
Under the thick smoke, Chi Yi suddenly rushed out and grabbed Mercury's wrist.
"I know my gust of wind can't trap you, but you're still too late." Mercury smiled lightly and looked towards Rinrin's location.
On the ground, the spiritual power sparkles like a calm lake.
Those swords were like flowers about to bloom, growing, appearing, and rushing away.
Until this overwhelming chaos, the black-haired puppet fell silently from the sky, and a long sword came from the sky, aiming at the current Rin who must not be able to dodge, and dropped a deadly sword!
