In short, the current operation is to lure the enemy.

The purpose is to make the twins have doubts that they may lose the battle before Lin Yu's injuries worsen.

forced them to give up the idea of waiting for their wounds to deteriorate, and actively attacked Lin Yu.

As long as the twins fight back with all their might.

In this way, there is a chance to turn the tide of the battle around.

After several waves of attacks, Iron Claw slashed Sasha's cheek.

The wound is not deep.

But maybe that's right.

Lin Yu landed on the ground and stopped, and twins stood on the left and right in front of him.

She suppressed her chaotic breathing, pretended not to feel tired at all, and said, "Hmph...... Is that all Nangong can do?"

「…… What do you say?"

"I said, you can be played around by a dying child, is that all there is to it?"

As if provocative.

As if mocking.

"It's really disappointing. In the name of a deer assassin...... If this continues, your heads will fall to the ground before my arm is broken."

Lin Yu glared murderously

That gaze caused the twins to drop their weapons at the same time.

The smile had long since disappeared from their faces. There was no expression on his face. There is no calmness and underestimation of the enemy, only solemnity.

"Yes."

"Yes."

The two lowered their voices.

「…… Don't wait for her to be dealt with by the sword, Sasha."

"yes, it's really unpleasant to wait any longer."

"What? What do you want to do?"

Meantime.

Slowly.

The two made a move.

「…… The Nangong family attacked."

Is the person who makes the sound Xiangxiang? Or salsa? Or both.

Lin Yu couldn't tell the difference. There was even the illusion that they had disappeared out of thin air. By the time the sound reached her ears, the twins had already approached her to the left and right.

「……！」

In the form of a left and right flanking attack, two symmetrical figures swing their knives to attack.

"Watch me take your ......"

"Behold me ...... your limbs"

Xiang Xiang is from the top right, and Sasha is from the bottom left.

The weapon bent while blocking the escape route, and I saw that the blade was like two semicircular spirals, attacking Lin Yu along a similar trajectory.

"Thousands of corpses!"

The twins' joint attack had also been used against Ye Ya before.

At such a distance, there is already nowhere to escape.

So Lin Yu, she-

「…… Hmph."

Laughed haughtily.

Hum

The twins' weapons bounced through the air with a sound like a bat hitting a rubber tire.

"Huh......?"

"Uh......?"

It was an invisible wall that kept the attack out.

When Lin Yu was hugged by Lan Yang to appease her emotions, Lan Yang quietly handed this thing to her.

The impact of the rebound shook Xiang Xiang and Sasha off balance.

Lin Yu did not let go of this opportunity.

She pressed down, like a venomous snake with her head, and attacked Xiangxiang's abdomen with her iron claws.

At the same time, Lan Yang also launched an attack, she swung her weapon from a distance, and the sword light flashed, slashing across Sasha's hands.

「…… Woo!"

「…… Ahh

At the same time that the twins let out different screams, the two switched the targets of their attacks.

Lan Yang attacked Xiangxiang and knocked her to the ground, while Lin Yu attacked Sasha.

"Woo......

By the time Xiangxiang, who was lying on the ground, raised her head, Lin Yu's iron claws were already pointing in front of her nose.

On the other hand, Sasha's two severed arms were also firmly stepped on by Lan Yang.

The two glared at Xiangxiang and Sasha respectively, and made a loud declaration.

"It's our ......"

「…… Won."

The other side.

Anno pressed the whirling head and sat up.

「…… No way."

The girl would appear, muttering in dismay.

The girl standing at a distance of three meters, she couldn't have been mistaken.

It's Ah Ye.

She wrapped her weapon in her left hand, and at the end of the rope, she could still see the residue of phosphorus fire shining, and her eyes were staring coldly at Nangong.

Nangong also seemed to be eager to kill and kick back Ah Ye.

I saw her pressing her right hand, which was scorched by the fire and was seriously charred......

"What the hell?"

While cursing through gritted teeth.

"What are you kidding...... Now that you're meddling, what are you doing with meddle in your business?"

"You're pretty good at talking nonsense with your eyes open." Ah Ye's answer was very simple and straightforward.

She spoke without any anger or resentment, and remained calm throughout.

"When life is threatened, is it necessary to sit back and wait for death?"

"Ah Ye ......"

"That being said, for me. Today's action is indeed a violation of the rules."

Ah Ye moved his gaze to the jujube and muttered.

She suddenly showed a look of guilt.

I'm going to live as a human being—perhaps because I broke the oath she made to Anno.

Anye staggered up from the ground, and Aye's incomparably upright personality made her smile bitterly in her heart.

「…… I'm sorry."

However, in the end, the reason for her change of hexagram was none other than Anye's body.

"You don't have to apologize to me."

Ah Ye just smiled lightly at Anno, who looked apologetic.

"Yaya asked me to come—just yesterday."

「…… Ya her?"

"She said she wanted me to support you secretly, if she could...... Really, the girl's heart is getting more and more evil. Knowing that I, the person who had already announced that I had already declared my departure from the front, would not be able to refuse, I still made that kind of request."

I don't know who influenced this

Ah Ye looked a little helpless, and muttered and complained with a sigh.

- I see.

Anye finally understood the reason why Ye Ya was full of confidence when they broke up earlier.

She knew that Ah Ye would appear.

And she also knew that once Ah Ye decided to join the war, she would definitely come to the rescue of Anye

The thoughtful care of the two made her feel heartwarming.

But on the other hand, there is a kind of pain welling up in my heart.

Because of his own incompetence, he annoyed Lao Yeya to worry about himself and brought trouble to Ah Ye.

Yasuno clenched his fists.

- Please don't make a fuss.

She couldn't help but feel angry at herself.

At this time, Ah Ye had a serious expression and asked Anye: "Anye...... What are you going to do?"

「…… Huh."

"In case Ye Chung and Nangong defeat you, sooner or later I will die at their hands. Then he will inevitably be in danger of his life. So I have a reason to fight."

Ah Ye narrowed her eyes hidden behind the lenses.

"If you want me to do it, I can kill Nangong...... For myself."

It was more like a temptation than an inquiry.

What is she tempting? The answer is obvious.

"It's up to you to decide. Whatever your decision is, I will respect it."

What she tested was Anno's Kakuta.

Even if she asks Aye, she won't fight for Anno.

In other words, if you think about it the other way around.

She was declaring, "If you decide to fight on your own, then you must - and take responsibility for my fate."

- Yes, I see.

Anno pursed his lips tightly.

Then he took a deep breath.

There is no need to compare the strength of me and Ah Ye.

Nangong's hand should not be cured. Minor burns aside, her fingers and skin had been burned to black charcoal. Even the deer would not be able to heal such injuries on their own. However, the lack of an arm is not a big problem for Nangong. The difference in strength between me and her is still worlds apart.

So in terms of common sense, I have no reason to insist that I have to do it myself.

"I'm sorry, Sister Aye."

Yasuno smiled.

She was sorry from the bottom of her heart.

I'm sorry

"This is the only showdown...... I can't quit."

Although—this will force Sister Aya to make a dangerous bet.

Anno announced as he picked up the magic harp that had fallen to the ground.

"This is my fight. I'll have to hold on until the last minute."

Although there is a possibility of losing.

Although there is a possibility of death.

"So, I'm sorry...... Let me face her off."

It's not to avenge the blood of his parents.

Nangong is indeed hateful, but compared to hatred

I would rather look up and face my parents.

I want to be a daughter who can be proud of my parents who are very capable

"I see."

After a while, Ah Ye nodded quietly and took a step back.

"You give it a go, not for anyone else, but for yourself."

Anye took the magic qin and faced Nangong again.

Nangong's face no longer saw the sinister and disdainful smile of the past.

There was a palpable hatred in her eyes.

It's a pure, unadorned emotion.

「…… Like you—"

Nangong stepped forward, holding a weapon in one hand.

"The guy who is weak and incompetent to give up his identity as a deer clan dares to speak out?"

With murderous eyes, she forced Anno to look at her.

"I'm the Nangong family. Born to dedicate his life to the dark authentic demon of the deer clan. It is the crystallization of blood extracted from the evil that is darker than the night, and the abomination that is thicker than the mud."

It's like a curse.

"That's how I ......."

Put on a posture

"How can you be defeated by half-tones like you who think you are human! Even if it's a dream, there should be a sense of proportion!"

Then Nangong screamed

rushed straight to the front, just like Anye, who had lost his mind before.

Seeing Nangong's appearance, An Ye smiled faintly.

In a fit of rage, she pulled her unloaded bow to full.

Of course, Anno doesn't have the technology to micro-control the volume.

No matter how hard you try, you can't play the inaudible voice of your mother. Whether it is technology or experience, Anno is far from enough, and he is completely inferior to his mother, who is highly capable.

However, even if the strength is not comparable, the technology is far inferior

Mother is not a natural master either. The reason why she can become so strong is because she is not afraid of hardship in order to become stronger, and she tirelessly repeats thousands, tens of thousands of self-harm behaviors.

It's the same with my father. His body was rigorously tempered, and there was hardly a bone in his body that had not been broken, and he was finally trained.

Case.

That being the case, as their daughter, of course, I have inherited their consciousness.

「…… Left hand!"

I don't have the technology. There is also no time to train. So what.

That kind of thing, as long as the parents of the young age make up for it with courage and perseverance!

Yasuno yelled.

Buzz bum bum bu

Echoing the wolf's howl, the shape of the wolf revealed its invisible fangs. The avatar of the stone lion roared and pounced on everyone who heard the howl.

Anye and Nangong's left elbow were torn off at the same time.

「…… Bastard, account!"

The traumatized Nangong did not flinch because of this.

"Die!"

Anno's consciousness became blurred for a moment.

She gritted her teeth.

A pain that ran straight through the door of the head. The smell of fishiness permeated the air. In terms of sobering up means, this feels quite pleasant.

"Two ...... feet!"

Yasuno shouted with blood in his mouth.

She grabbed it with her only remaining right hand and the bow and brought it to Nangong's ear.

Imitate the skills that my mother had shown before.

The bowstring, plucked with his thumb, made a faint "buzzing" sound.

Yasuno heard that voice too.

I don't know if it's a crack in the bone or a crack in the muscle.

If even I had suffered such severe pain

That means that Nangong's trauma is even more severe.

"Uh...... Goh!?"

Suddenly, Nangong lost the ability to stand and sank down.

Anye inadvertently remembered what Nangong had just screamed loudly about.

What weakness and incompetence to abandon the identity of the deer clan, what self-righteous human half-tone.

What kind of joke is it, it's too dog-eyed to look down on people.

Deer? Mankind?

That's right, if you are the Nangong family.

Then I'm Anye

"Don't ...... me"

Yasuno clenched his fists and aimed at Nangong's abdomen......

Instilled with the strength of the whole body, without mercy, with full strength

"Don't take my family...... Look at it!"

Chao Nangong punched hard.

"Huh...... Ahh

Nangong's body flew backwards.

I saw her hit the trunk of the tree with a loud noise, and fell to the ground.

And then – Anye glared at Nangong, who was motionless, and lowered his right hand weakly.

As a result of the full force of the beating, his fists and wrists were broken in a mess.

The pain in his leg was terrible, and coupled with severe anemia, Anno was no longer able to stand still.

"I did it...... Mom, Dad."

After muttering to himself, Anno closed his eyes and fell.

It felt like someone was helping me hold me up.

Before he could say thank to that man, Anno's consciousness had already melted into the darkness.

After hugging Anye, who was unconscious and unconscious, Ah Ye sighed softly.

With a gentle look in her eyes, she gently let Anye lie flat on the ground.

Pick up the left hand that has fallen to the side and bring the two cut-off surfaces together. Although it was slow, the wound was gradually healing. After checking her breathing and heartbeat to make sure there were no abnormalities, she stroked Anno's cheek lightly, and a faint smile tugged at the corner of her mouth.

"You've done a great job, Anno."

After muttering softly, Ah Ye stood up.

The grim expression on his face returned.

She glanced at the weapon wrapped around her left hand.

Then he turned around, ready to give Nangong a fatal blow.

「…… How is this possible?"

Ah Yexing's eyes widened.

The battle ended in less than a minute.

However, in such a short period of time

"Do you mean...... She didn't lose consciousness?"

Originally, Nangong fell under the tree.

Now it is empty.

Nangong dropped his left arm and disappeared without a trace.

The sun is slowly starting to set in the west.

The sky gradually flooded with a rare sunset in late spring.

Even the lonely house in the forest had a faint shade of red on its straw roof. Obviously, there is only half a month of absence, but somehow there is a feeling of nostalgia.

Even though this is not the time to think about that kind of question, I can't help but think to myself.

About 30 minutes have passed since the departure for the mountain.

Xia Jing and Ye Ya are now standing in front of the gate of the Lost House.

I can't help but worry about the safety of Lin Yu and the others who stayed behind. Are they safe? Are you still alive?
