Chapter 3: A Fight to the Death

"Can you see the eyes of the future? What a nuisance. Shuangyue said and stroked her forehead with her right hand, looking very distressed.

"So you better surrender, I just want to win the battle of the Chosen One, and I have no intention of taking your life. Just give me the head of the person next to you. Wang Yifan said with his eyes fixed on me, like a python staring at its prey.

"Haha, Wang Yifan said that you are fat, you are really panting." Twinyue let out a demonic laugh. "Your so-called future vision is just a speculation about the future through existing intelligence, and you don't really see what happens in the future. If you could really see the future, you wouldn't be risky to challenge me. Shuangyue said as she pulled one of her long hair off, and covered her palm with her finger to cut a bloody streak, and a drop of blood flowed from the wound down her hair to the ground. The hair glowed yellowish, then lengthened and hardened like a sword blade.

Incredibly, the wound on Shuangyue's right palm healed instantly and was as intact as ever. At the same time, Shuangyue took out a sword hilt and combined the blade of the sword that his hair had turned into to form a sharp sword. Shuangyue held the sword in his right hand and swung forward. Suddenly the sand was raging, and a hurricane whistled past my ears.

"Impossible, how can you..."The man's face darkened, and he couldn't help but take a few steps back.

"The Yuan Soul of 3450 has been strengthened nearly three times after half an hour. It seems that it is a temporary increase in the life span of at least twenty years. But you have no chance of winning, even if you can predict my moves with future vision. But ants are still ants after all, and no matter how hard they try, they can't defeat the lion. Shuangyue's eyes became lazy as she spoke, and she yawned a few times.

"Then I'm betting on my remaining five years of life." Wang Yifan shouted, as if he had become angry with fear.

"Oh, even if you can only catch me in two moves, are you still going to challenge me? Okay, Yifan. For the sake of you and I who used to be roommates, I'll give you a chance. Shuangyue said as she tossed the sword, which curved in the air and plunged straight into a wall.

"Hey, you're a little too contemptuous." Yifan gritted his teeth and said.

"I'd love to look down on you, too, but it's too hard. In order to give you a little hope, I will fight you empty-handed, and of course I still advise you not to go head-to-head with me. Or bypass me and sneak attack Yu Tianxiao has a better chance of winning. ”

"Hey, even villains don't talk like that. Can you fight well, in the anime you pretend to be forced like this and you will soon be counter-killed. "I couldn't help but shout at Shuangyue, after all, Shuangyue lost a chance to be promoted, and I was a life. A strong desire to survive makes it imperative for me to condemn this act of giving away heads.

"Sure enough, as long as there is a desire to survive. The other feelings can't go away, it's a real headache. There is only one feeling that gives rise to anger, fear, and recklessness. Shuangyue turned to look at me in distress.

"Hey, Twin-moon. Now is not the time to talk about that. Enemy..."Before I could finish speaking, Wang Yifan had already rushed behind Shuangyue from twenty meters away, and a sharp sword pierced Shuangyue's heart.

"Didn't I say that ants are still ants after all?" Shuangyue said to me as she caught Yifan's blade with her right hand with her back to me.

She slowly turned around to look at Wang Yifan, still holding the *** in Wang Yifan's hand, her eyes were dim, as if she had just gotten up in the morning. "Didn't your eyes tell you the difference in strength between me? Even if you burn your whole life, you can't withstand my three moves. ”

"What are you kidding, I'm in charge of my future." Wang Yifan shouted and kicked his left leg towards Shuangyue's chest, and Shuangyue raised his knee to resist. Yi Fan then took advantage of the inertia of recoil to pull the blade out of Shuangyue's hand, and then jumped up and slashed towards the top of Shuangyue's head.

"Dangerous." Before I could utter these two words, a dragon fist slammed into Yifan's jaw, and the teeth in Yifan's mouth were mixed with blood and scattered from his mouth. Immediately after that, Shuangyue kicked Yifan in the chest, Yifan screamed and was kicked more than 20 meters away, then hit his body against the wall, leaned against the wall and sat down.

Just as I was stunned, Shuangyue slammed her hands to the ground and threw two cement blocks at me. With a "boom", there was a huge explosion behind me, and a wave of heat directly knocked me to the ground.

I lay on the ground and looked at Shuangyue, only to see Yifan slashing at Shuangyue again with all his might. His face was covered in blood, and his eyes gleamed with a strange light. It's a pity that Shuangyue easily flashed sideways, and then grabbed him and punched him in the chest, this time Yifan spat blood like a fountain, and I could clearly hear the sound of bones breaking. He fell to the ground on his back, blood splattered all over the cold concrete floor.

I stood up and looked again at the little girl, who was 1.75 meters tall. I can't believe that her slender arms and soft jade legs are so powerful. The structure of the human body is truly a miracle.

Yifan fell to the ground, and the blood in his mouth spurted out again and again with his breathing. The few blows that Shuangyue gave him just now hurt just looking at it, and Yifan is now like a four-legged turtle, his two hands still fluttering on the ground and preparing to fight back.

"It's really an incredible will, I didn't expect that since I used four tricks to solve you, it seems that human emotions contain immeasurable power." Shuangyue said like a godfather, his eyes were very solemn.

"It seems that I still underestimated you, and I was thinking of pestering you. Kill Yu Tianxiao with the prepared auto-firing bazooka, I didn't expect the speed of your nervous reaction to be really a little perverted. That's enough, kill me. Otherwise, I'll make you regret it. Yifan said, without the slightest fear in his eyes, but for some reason tears flowed.

"Yifan, the success rate of your plan is actually very high, burning your own life makes the other party mistakenly think that you are going to fight to the death, but you are betting on the other party's carelessness after hitting you. It is a good plan for the average S-class Heavenly Punisher. It's a pity that my Liangyi Tongyan also happens to have futuristic abilities, and I have already predicted your prediction of me. Shuangyue said as she looked at the gate of the abandoned steel mill, as if waiting for something.

"Oh, then why didn't you kill me at school. Judging by the speed of your reaction just now, you can kill me without anyone noticing. Yi Fan straightened up as he spoke, as if he still wanted to fight.

"Maybe it's because of my kindness." A strange smile appeared on the corner of Shuangyue's mouth as she spoke. It's like crying, and it's like sorrow.

At this time, I heard a movement behind me, and I thought that something was flying towards me again, and instinctively lay on the ground with my head in my hands. However, after lying on his stomach for five seconds, no sound was heard. I looked up behind me and saw a little girl in the prime of her life. But instead of looking at me, she looked behind me expectantly.

"Brother." After a long silence, the girl whispered these two words, as if she couldn't believe what she was seeing.

"Shanshan." There was a trembling sound behind me, as if I was dreaming.

"Brother." The girl cried out, and I could tell it was tears of emotion. She quickly ran towards Wang Yifan, and Wang Yifan also half-knelt and hugged the girl with open arms. The two of them hugged each other and kept their tears in their eyes. The girl's head was buried in Yi Fan's arms, and Yi Fan looked at the blazing sun, as if to say "God forbid." The two of them hugged each other for a long time, although they didn't say a word, but I could see the deep friendship between them.

"Thank you, Jin Shuangyue." After a long time, Yifan remembered what he was going to say.

"Nothing, no effort. Besides, Wang Shanshan is not an important experimental material, so I said hello to the research department and released the person. But your father is really, he actually sent his own daughter as an experiment. ”

"Although it was my father's fault, I did live up to my father's hopes. As an A-level Heavenly Punisher, my father participated in the Battle of the Chosen Chosen twice, but unfortunately he was unsuccessful, and finally retired early with lifelong disability. For this reason, my father wanted me to become an S-class Heavenly Punisher. However, I'm already very satisfied with becoming an A-rank Heavenly Punisher, and participating in the Chosen War is just a matter of coping. In order to give me the determination to break the boat, my father sent my sister to the organization's laboratory. For those who are sent to the laboratory, it is easy to get in and difficult to get out. Only S-rank Heavenly Punisher or higher can redeem his relatives, so this incident is used to enable me to participate in the Chosen War and win. Yifan said and lowered his head to look at his sister. I haven't suffered for a few weeks. ”

"It's okay, because my dad told me my brother would take me home." The girl smiled innocently as she spoke.

"Your father is lucky enough to be alive since he participated in the two Chosen Battles. But you too, when you encounter this incident, just talk to me. Why bother to meet each other with swords, weren't we classmates before? ”

"Classmates." Yi Fan lowered his head and repeated this sentence softly, and drops of hot tears flowed from his eyes. "I'm sorry, I thought the Heavenly Punish..., therefore..."Yi Fan's words became fragmented, with a kind of crying. Even if I listened carefully, I couldn't hear clearly, but I was sure that he was very moved now.

"Forget about friendship, only care about the increase of strength and the promotion of rank. Sorry, that's just the behavior of ordinary Heavenly Punishers. And I am going to win the battle of the chosen ones and become the one of the seven original sins. Shuangyue said and touched the girl's hair, and the girl felt Shuangyue's touch like a kitten.

"Really, really, really thank you Bimoon. By the way, Shanshan, you have to thank your sister quickly. Yifan said and kowtowed to Shuangyue three times on the ground, and the girl named Shanshan also said in a childish voice, "Thank you, sister." ”

Although this situation is the same as in the third-rate novel, although the plot of repaying grievances with virtue is very routine, I really like this routine very much.

"No need Xie Yifan, although you can't do it even if you try your best to save your sister, it's just a phone call to me. But the words are good, be courageous, but don't be reckless. Sometimes, you have to pay for your recklessness. ”

"Let me do things for you? You rescued my sister in two months, no matter what the price I paid, I did my best. Yifan patted his chest and said.

"Actually, it's not difficult, I just want you to cooperate with me in a play."

"Acting, I'm not very good at it, but I can give it a try."

"It doesn't matter, life is a stage. I'll let you play Oscar-like acting. ”

"Well, what does that mean?" Yifan tilted his head sideways and looked at Shuangyue.

Shuangyue smiled enigmatically, "You can look at it with those eyes." ”

After the two looked at each other for three seconds, Yifan seemed to have been struck by lightning, "Are you still human?" ”

"Do you think humans are fit to participate in the War of the Chound? You should know that since the time we became the Heavenly Punishment, we have been transformed from humans into beasts. Besides, you can't win the battle of the chosen one and save your sister. Anyway, it is more meaningful to die on the left and right, especially in the inhumane scientific experiments, and it is better to die in my hands, and I have suffered a lot less. Shuangyue said, her eyes showing a hungry wolf's eyes.

"Damn." Without waiting for Shuangyue to finish speaking, Yifan punched Shuangyue fiercely. But when his fist was less than a centimeter away from Shuangyue, he suddenly froze like a stone sculpture. Including the hideous expression on his face, as if he had been immobilized.

"It's really a weak and ignorant guy, even I can't win, but I still dare to challenge Satsuki." I turned my head and saw that it was a thousand charms. She walked with catwalks like a model, followed by three men.

"Brother, what's wrong with you?" Shanshan hurriedly hugged her brother, but her brother remained motionless like a statue.

"Your brother is fine, Shanshan. We just wanted to play a game with you, and after the game, you and your brother can go home. Qianmei said with a smile.

Shanshan nodded suspiciously, "Then let's start quickly, I want to go home with my brother as soon as possible." ”

"Okay, sister, start the game right away. In addition, a friendly reminder that there will be a large number of pornographic and violent scenes in this video, and minors are prohibited from watching them. Qianmei said like a host. So below, I would like to introduce the three guests who will appear. The first, Lao Wang, who was sent to a psychiatric hospital for raping the old sow next door. Everyone applauded and welcomed. Qian Mei said and clapped herself.

"The second, Zhang San, who was sentenced to death for raping four Lori, raping and killing three, and playing with one. and Li Si, who has made 30 action movies in island countries. Qianmei said, and the three men each stepped forward and bowed like the first.

"The game is very simple, everyone can just let loose their desires." After Qianmei finished speaking, the three men walked up, like hungry wolves surrounding the little sheep, looking at Shanshan with fierce eyes.

Shanshan's legs couldn't help but tremble, and she pulled Yifan's sleeve. muttered to himself, "Brother, Shanshan is afraid." ”

Qianmei smiled and said, "It's okay little sister, my sister has played such a game when she was younger than you." But you see, now, my sister shouldn't be alive. The key is not to resist, but to change your mindset and learn to enjoy. Qian Mei snapped her fingers after speaking, and the three men pounced on it like a vicious dog. stepped forward and bit Shanshan. The girl screamed, and in an instant her weak body was placed on the grass, and her clothes flew around like foam.

"Oh, Yifan. Why are you looking at Satsuki, you can't see your sister's wonderful performance like this. Did you see the drones in the sky? There is a camera inside, and it will record this picture and put it on the Heavenly Punisher APP for everyone to watch at that time, and it is estimated that the number of hits will be at least 100,000 by then. Haha, your sister is going to be famous, so you don't need to say thank me. Qianmei said and walked over, moving Yifan's body. Let Yifan face Shanshan.

At this time, although Yifan still had a hideous expression on his face, I felt that the meaning was different. Wang Yifan was motionless like a stone sculpture, only tears oozing from the corners of his eyes flowed down his cheeks. I felt like his heart was about to explode, and even I, an unrelated stranger, couldn't stand it. Shanshan seemed to be afraid that her brother would be upset, so she didn't scream as expected, but she was not yet thirteen years old after all, and she inevitably screamed in pain when she was in pain. Shuangyue seemed to be petrified, she looked at everything in front of her motionlessly, and Qianmei was busy like a director.

"You give me enough time." I couldn't help but rush up and kick one of the abusers in the back, then pulled out the pistol that saved my life and shot each of the two people in the lower body. The three men were rolling on the ground and screaming in pain, while the girl was lying on the ground with a blurred expression, in pain, and her hair was pressed against her cheeks with sweat, like a patient with a fever of 40 degrees.

"Stupid, what do you want to do?" Qianmei shouted and her eyes glowed red at me, and Shuangyue suddenly stretched out her arm to cover Qianmei's eyes. Qianmei looked at Shuangyue with some confusion, and then Qianmei snapped her fingers helplessly, and the three men immediately fell to the ground like convulsions.

"Didn't I tell you that you just have to hang up and lie down and win? Why do these superfluous things? Shuangyue looked at me with a frown, her eyes showing a hint of displeasure.

"Didn't you tell me that all you had to do was win the Chosen War? I'm okay with hitting the enemy, but why do you want to do it? You won't be a pervert who likes to watch sexual abuse, right? "Even though my legs kept shaking, after all, there was a person in front of me who could tear my hands apart, but as a human being, I felt that I had to stand in front of this persecuted girl.

Shuangyue looked at me calmly, just like to look at an ignorant child. "God knows, in ancient times, when the heads of criminals were chopped, they had to take the criminals to the execution ground and kill them in front of everyone? That's not just a sanction for crime, it's a warning to others. Have you seen a drone in the sky? The plane would broadcast everything that happened here on a website that only the Heavenly Punishment could enter. When the Heavenly Punisher sees this video, they will understand that I am not going to be their life, but their suffering. If you dare to challenge me in the battle of the Chosen One, it's good to win. If they win, it's fine, but if they lose, not only their lives, but also the things they cherish, and the people they protect will also be wiped out by me. In this way, there will not be so many stupid people who want to challenge me regardless of their lives, which will save me a lot of trouble, and can also avoid some unnecessary casualties. ”

"You mean to sacrifice this girl and reduce your opponents in the Chosen War."

"That's right, it's for myself to win the battle of the Chosen and for you to live. Tianxiao, do you know this girl? Do you think you can protect this girl? With the movement of my fingers, I can take the lives of both of you in an instant. Even if you take 10,000 steps back, you can protect this girl. What can you get for her to make a personal promise? Don't dream, you won't get anything, you'll just let this deterrence go to waste, attracting more killers. Maybe while I'm dealing with the trash fish, someone else will take your life. ”

After hearing Shuangyue's words, I fell into deep thought. I knew that the two moons must have been leading me into the wrong direction, but I didn't notice anything wrong.

"What are you hesitating about, stupid." Qianmei shouted, "Do you know that every five minutes in the world, there is a woman who is **, there are many abused girls like this in the world, do you have to save each one?" Don't be stupid, who do you think you are, God? ”

"That's not right." I shouted, "Although I can't save all the persecuted, I can at least change the fate of the girl in front of me." Although I cannot argue with your words, I firmly believe that what I am doing must be the right thing. If I watch you torture and kill this girl, not only am I a waste, I will lose my qualifications as a human being. ”

"It's ridiculous, it's infuriating. You otaku who didn't finish high school, how can you do so much. "Qianmei stomped his feet, and at this moment, Wang Yifan suddenly vomited blood and died, Qianmei's illusion could not control the dead, so Wang Yifan fell to the ground at once." It's really a waste without it, how can it die so quickly. But that's fine. After glancing at Yifan's corpse, Qianmei took out a pistol and pointed it at me, "Yu Tianxiao, I advise you to take back what you just said, otherwise I will educate you with pain." ”

"If I'm scared with a gun, I won't be laughed to death by others."

"Looks like you don't understand your situation." After Qianmei finished speaking, I suddenly felt as if something was missing in my hand. There was a bang, and I instinctively closed my eyes. However, it didn't seem to be coming from the front, but I felt a pain in my back, and I fell to the ground all of a sudden. When I opened my eyes, I saw the girl standing with a gun pointed at me. The girl's eyes darkened, and she pulled the trigger again without hesitation. "Bang, bang, bang." Three more shots.

When I opened my eyes, a brilliant golden light appeared above my head, and an angelic girl appeared in front of me. Wait a minute, this angel is a little familiar, and it looks a little like the demon I just saw in the human world. "Bimoon." I called softly.

"I'm glad you're okay, although the gun you're given is an oak bullet, but if you hit the body directly, it's still life-threatening." Shuangyue smiled.

"Oak bullets? And what am I doing? I said and looked around, I looked like I was lying in a bedroom, the room was very well decorated, and the bed was very comfortable.

"You forget, while you're not looking, you protect the girl and snatch the gun from your hand and shoot you four times. Luckily, I had oak bullets in the gun. Otherwise, you will really be an angel in front of you. ”

"What did you say?" My heart suddenly felt like a knife.

"It can't be helped, after all, your experience is limited, and it is natural to be used by them. I didn't expect Wang Yifan to play a big game of chess, but it was actually to help his sister win the battle of the Chosen One. Even my thinking patterns have seen through and predicted my predictions of his, and fortunately I have done something in your gun. It can be remotely controlled to change magazines instantly, firing other bullets to fool enemies. ”

"You mean, that girl wanted to kill me."

"Well, and almost made it. I also suspected that this should not be a play prepared by two people in advance. But if you don't have prepared or rehearsed fake death in advance, it will most likely turn into real death. Judging from Wang Yifan's escape from Qianmei's control through the method of fake death, this should have been designed by the brother and sister in advance. In order to give me a surprise blow. ”

"That girl was ** yes?"

"That girl is a C-level Heavenly Punisher, and her Yuan Soul Value is 349, which is higher than the sum of the three big men, and she is fully capable of killing three unarmed big men. However, she did not do it, but chose to endure it. Presumably, it is to arouse your sympathy, and she also uses psychological cues to amplify your emotional fluctuations. In order to get close to you, so that I can kill you by surprise and win the battle of the Chosen One. Just after you were knocked down by the first shot, Wang Yifan used fake death to break free from Qianmei's control, and suddenly stood up and attacked me, although I was subdued, but the girl had already shot you four times. If it weren't an oak bullet, the Chosen War would be over. Later, Qianmei also confirmed that the girl had indeed secretly signed up for the Chosen Battle. ”

"You mean, the girl who sold herself to the lab, the smile at her brother, the cry after the humiliation, the painful expression are all acting?"

"I don't know if it's acting for her brother's smile, but the crying and pain are definitely faked. I didn't expect the other party's ability to be very weak, and his IQ and acting skills were very high, so I still underestimated the opponent this time. Shuangyue smiled bitterly, "Hey, God Xiao, you don't have that sad face, incredible expression." It's just that others take advantage of their sympathy, and in real life, aren't there many people who take advantage of the sympathy of the masses to crowdfund and cheat money? Although these people are only a minority, you may meet a lot of them next. After all, this is the chosen war, and winning this war is equivalent to gaining the right to be the vice president of a developed country. In order to obtain this enticing right, unscrupulous means are the basic principle of the contestant. ”

After listening to Shuangyue's words, I suddenly felt empty inside. Looking at Shuangyue for a while, he didn't know what to say, like a child who did something wrong. After a long time, I whispered, "Sorry, it seems that the formatting was a little unsuccessful." If I didn't have feelings, I wouldn't have fallen for someone else's scheme. ”

"It doesn't matter, if only a few illusions can destroy human feelings, then this world will be easy to rule. Moreover, you have done nothing wrong per se, and I am glad that the target of my protection is a compassionate human being. It's just that in this month of the Chosen War, you should try not to do this kind of correct behavior in the future. Shuangyue said, a look of concern in her eyes. Tianxiao, you don't have to feel lost, just like the ancients traveled to the present. ”

"Does this have anything to do with the ancients traveling to the present?" I asked, puzzled.

"Thought and culture. In the eyes of the ancients, monogamy was inconceivable, as well as equality between men and women, prohibiting prostitution of women, giving political power to ordinary people, and so on. ”

"Is there anything wrong with that?"

"No, for now, the more democratic the local cultural economy, the faster it will develop. On the contrary, some backward countries are still oppressive to women and are authoritarian and autocratic, so they have been in a state of economic backwardness and war for a long time. ”

"What are you trying to illustrate?" For me, as a science student, it feels like listening to a book.

"What seems right at the time is not always right, and what seems right to you is not necessarily right in the eyes of others. Even if the facts are in front of them, many people still don't think it's true. You have to learn to look at things from multiple perspectives and learn to think from someone else's point of view. This way you will not be controlled by others and feel lost and confused. Shuangyue said to me like a bosom sister.

I closed my eyes and pondered for a moment, vaguely feeling a little more relaxed. "And what did you do with the girl in the end? I remember what she seemed to be called. ”

"It's good that you still don't know, she has nothing to do with the next plot development."

"You're not going to give her ......," I didn't dare to continue.

"Your heart is really big, and you still care about her when you are being targeted by others. But you'd better care about yourself next. ”

"What do you mean?"

"Another contestant from the Chosen One has come to the city, and it's strong. The other Heavenly Punishers have all withdrawn from this Chosen War because of his participation, or have joined other Chosen Ones. I really don't know if it's luck, or if it's the final chapter of the Chosen War. ”

"Eh, the Chosen War is almost over. We've only met two opponents. ”

"You don't seem to be very satisfied."

"No, according to the general plot. We shouldn't have to go through a lot of hardships and obstacles, and there is a good chance that there will be infighting among ourselves in between. Do you end up with a seemingly invincible enemy, but in the end you still work together to defeat the enemy? Why is there only one enemy left now. ”

"Hopefully, as you say, we can get through this together." Shuangyue said and looked out the window, the sky was dark, only endless darkness.
