Chapter 12: A Greater Conspiracy
Snow makes people feel in one word – cold. The earth was silvery white and clean, and the snowflakes were still like catkins, like cotton, and like goose feathers fluttering from the sky.
At the beginning of the snowfall, often the snow flakes are not big, not too dense, such as catkins fluttering lightly with the wind, as the wind blows more and more fiercely, the snow becomes denser and denser, and the snowflakes are getting bigger and bigger, like weaving a white net, and nothing can be seen in the distance.
Rooftops and roads were covered, branches of trees were crushed, the appearance of various objects was hidden, roads and traffic were blocked, and snowflakes flew in the sky, making the heavens and the earth dissolve into a white one.
This is the unique weather of the deep winter in the north, and the white fog will rise slowly when you open your mouth to speak, and in such weather, it is usually not good for travel, and few people will stop on the street on such days, so that it will not take three minutes to freeze through your thick clothes.
However, this is not exhaustive.
The white villa blends in with the white between heaven and earth, and if you remove the brown glass, it almost seems to be hidden between heaven and earth.
In the vestibule, the snow had reached the calves, but there was not a single messy footprint on the white snow.
It should be a family trip, and occasionally passers-by will have such thoughts, after all, this is the life of a rich man, like a wild goose migrating north and south.
The front courtyard of the villa seems to be still, but the back yard is full of shouts.
The man with his bare upper body was holding a long sword, and the snowflakes fell on his body, instantly turning into a trace of heat and dissipating, which was a vision of too much heat on his body, originally in such weather, a person with a naked upper body. It can also be considered a neuropathy.
"Brother Wei. Well, you don't need a sword. ”
The boy on the other side apparently thought that the man with the sword was playing tricks. questioned loudly, but what he got was a cold snort.
"This is called a soldier who is not tired of deceit, Xiao Er, the enemy on the battlefield will not reason with you."
Wei Dongxu finally found a suitable word, and it was also an idiom, and he was very proud for a while, and it seemed that he was often with Xu Ningning, which made his IQ have a clear tendency to be positive.
"That's a shameless reason."
Zhang Yi on the other side didn't seem to buy it. Exposed him mercilessly.
"Cross Slash."
Wei Dongxu didn't care so much, the tiger roared, his body pressed down, and the next moment he had already rushed out in one step, leaving two marks that seemed to be rolled by wheels, and his body had suddenly killed in front of Zhang Yi's eyes.
"Damn, this is obviously a three-stage chop, isn't it good?"
Zhang Yi hurriedly waved the long stick in his hand, because of the evil taste, he painted the two ends of the long stick pale yellow, and the middle painted red. Although this is also a weapon that can be exchanged in the Apostle space, it has a certain bonus to attack damage. But to achieve the magical existence of the golden hoop rod is obviously just a whimsical.
Wei Dongxu smiled proudly, but the long sword in his hand did not stop at all, slashing through the air with a sword, Zhang Yi hurriedly used the "Golden Hoop Stick" in his hand to make a crisp sound, making him suddenly feel that his hands were numb, and the strength of Erjue and Yijue made him obviously suffer.
The understanding of his teammates' tricks allowed Zhang Yi to make judgments in advance, and after Wei Dongxu slashed, although he was in a hurry, Zhang Yi still endured the numbness in his hand and quickly completed the defensive moves, and had already predicted the next direction in advance.
"Forced cancellation, ghost."
Wei Dongxu saw that Zhang Yi had already made a defensive move, the corners of his mouth pulled to his eyebrows, obviously the other party had a trick, Zhang Yi already knew that it was not good when he heard him speak, but he didn't expect that after stepping into Erjue, Wei Dongxu could already force the mid-section skill and change the attack.
Such a change was too sudden, and Wei Dongxu's attack was already smooth, such an action made him effortless, the afterimage of the lightsaber was split, and there was already an extra long sword in both hands at the same time, if he attacked from the other direction, Zhang Yi was already bound to lose.
"Whoosh"
Wei Dongxu saw that he was about to succeed, but in vain he heard a buzz that broke through the air, the original attack move changed instantly, the group jumped back, and there were ten consecutive somersaults in a row, and the two-handed lightsaber was in front of his chest, and he swung it out with all his might, and the red shadow of the cross sword slash passed by in an instant.
"Jingle Bell"
With the pleasant sound of metal crashing, an arrow with a blue tail disappeared in front of him, and in the attic of the villa stood a dark-skinned figure, the bow and arrow in his hand had just disappeared, standing silently in the wind and snow, like an experienced hunter.
"Hey, Xiaofan, do you want two to one?"
Wei Dongxu was not annoyed, but licked the corners of his mouth excitedly, after a significant increase in the strengthening of points, the past two days have made his hands itchy and unbearable, and he has to pull people to practice every day.
Because Zhang Yi already knew about the Elder Scrolls and was very proficient in it, he was given a vacation today, so Wei Dongxu hurriedly seized the opportunity and asked Xiao Ai to borrow him.
"Brother Wei, it's time to eat."
Tan Xiaofan had already put away his bow, obviously not planning to join the battle, this battle was also particularly important to him, but the more such a big battle came, he became more and more calm.
"Cut, speaking of the front, after eating, I want to exchange this arrow for your sneak attack."
Wei Dongxu pursed his lips with a displeased expression, obviously still unfinished, and the lightsaber had disappeared into the palm of his hand with a wave of his hand.
"Gone Xiaoer, what are you still in a daze."
Wei Dongxu walked past Xiao Er's side and found that he was staring at the long stick in his hand with a depressed expression, and patted him on the shoulder for some reason.
"Sister, the paint is off."
Zhang Yi said with a sad face, Wei Dongxu only felt that the corners of his mouth twitched a little, this kid's nerves were really not the same kind as him.
Tan Xiaofan watched the two walk in with a smile on his face, and he had his own feelings in his heart, they are very strong now, as long as they go through this one more battle, they will be able to be promoted to the upper rank, no matter what the price is, he must help Zhan Scythe to win this one.
Thinking of the girl's smile before she died, he couldn't help but clutch the necklace around her neck.
"Xiaofan, only this time. You have to win. “
Wei Dongxu walked past Tan Xiaofan's side. Said softly. When Tan Xiaofan suddenly woke up, Wei Dongxu was already only left with his back, obviously everything he was thinking had been guessed by Wei Dongxu.
"I will."
It is like making a commitment to his comrades, and it is also giving himself all the confidence to stay.
Seven days is not a long time, and under the premise that everyone has endless work and preparation every day, it flies.
The discussion of the plot and the strategic arrangement have been compressed to the time of eating, and the rest of the time is completely prepared by each other. Yet it was at such a time that the voice of the apostles calling was heard punctually.
In addition to the space watch, everyone in the scythe also has a travel bag this time, and none of them are products of the apostle space, which contains some essential supplies for survival in the wild and the map they mentioned, in order to prevent the possibility of the apostle slaying them at a critical moment.
Lin Xiu leaned against the wall, his backpack straddled, his hands were naturally in his pockets, and he kept his eyes closed, and the others also stood quietly in front of him. They all seem to be waiting, and they are all calming down.
The white light began to gather. The speed of this teleportation was obviously much slower than before, and it was clear that the simultaneous personnel of this time had affected the apostle's power somewhat.
"Ladies and gentlemen...... It's going to win. “
The man with a delicate face opened his eyes at this moment, and the essence in it was radiant, different from the previous slight warmth, this time it was wrapped in perseverance and tenacity.
The next moment, the white light flickered, and the villa returned to calm again.
In another time and space, in the same villa, a woman with long white hair was wearing a black and purple jacket, leaning against the wall, which was exactly the same as Lin Xiu's way of thinking and calming, her long white hair had been combed into a hanging tail, but the slightly rapid gasping sound made her not as calm as she seemed on the surface.
"Basically, it can be determined, because of the plane, the ten scripts given by the apostle have all been analyzed, and in my estimation, the proportion of scenes in The Elder Scrolls has reached eighty, so I still remember what I said."
It was a girl with long red hair who spoke, her delicate body was hidden under the wide mage robes, and her delicate face looked a little immature, but the tone of her voice was quite confident.
"Oh, this ...... Can you meet a teacher? “
As if to make a final confirmation, the man with two long black cloths folded and a short blade pinned to his waist whispered.
"Huh? Gao Cheng, why is the food I put in my bag gone? You're going to be hungry. “
Another woman in a white butterfly shirt was still looking down and flipping through her backpack, and suddenly remembered something and said it loudly.
"Please, Shizuka-sensei, this is not a trip, in case the space watch can't be used, what kind of food can you put in such a small backpack, and ah, your ability may be greatly affected in this field, don't worry so much, after all, it's the team that ranks second in the strongest eight senses in the lower rank."
The girl named Saya Takashiro had an unbearable expression on her face, covering her forehead in pain, and she even suspected that they were able to make it all the way here, most likely because of the favor of Lady Luck.
"Alright, guys, it's time."
Poison Island Tsuneko, who had not spoken, opened his eyes at this moment, and in the continuous experience of the apostle space, in the struggle on the edge of life and death, the original thought of following the teacher's footsteps was not suppressed, but became more and more intense.
The original immature face has become more charming, and the murderous aura contained in that look can be felt even by companions, the strongest eight senses-white hair, this name is a concept of what kind of rank is in the apostle space, they can also empathize, and they also have their own pride.
"I hope the teacher won't be too surprised."
The blindfolded man whispered, a smile unconsciously appearing on the corner of his mouth.
"Oh, let's go."
Different from the teleportation method of Lin Xiu and the others, a white space-time gate suddenly appeared in the middle of them, Poison Island Yanzi walked in first, and then the three teammates entered one by one, with different expressions flashing on their faces, this was the meeting they had been looking forward to for a long time.
In the ancient villa of C province and C city, there is a man with an indifferent face on a golden armchair, with a faint sadness on his angular face, which is a heart-pounding face. Although only in men.
The slender eyebrows are slightly closed. Press your temple with one hand. Leaning on the armrest, it seems to be a still picture.
"You're laid-back."
The silence of the room was broken by a sudden voice, and a figure wearing a red robe and a mask appeared in the room, as if expected, a smile appeared on the corner of the man's mouth, and his eyes slowly opened.
"How dare I be at a leisurely time like this, just before the more important things are. The more calm you are, that's what you taught me. “
The man said, shaking his head a little amusedly.
"Do you really want to do this?"
Despite wearing a mask and a robe, she could still tell from the voice that it was a woman's voice, and it was very beautiful.
"Huh, scared?"
The man didn't answer directly, but asked a somewhat funny rhetorical question.
"Cut, what's there to be afraid of. You are not afraid of the way of heaven, but I will be afraid of becoming an apostle. It's just that...... I'm a little worried. “
"Now that you've made your choice, there's nothing to regret, don't forget, I'...... But the way of heaven is traceless, how can it disappoint you. “
The man had already stood up as he spoke, and the huge momentum seemed to shake the air, scattering in all directions.
"Hey, you're so good, who do you guess will win this battle in the lower rank?"
It is astonishing that the apostles would say such words.
"You care about this too? Well, I think about it, the strongest Eight Senses, heh, I'm quite optimistic about that clown, I hope he's not a guy who can only entertain the public."
The man said, with an intriguing smile on his lips.
No one could have imagined that in this ancient villa, there lived the strongest emperor who would make the upper and lower ranks tremble, but at this moment, he seemed to have a greater premeditation.
What's going on?
Lin Xiu was a little surprised, after this teleportation, it was not as usual, although it was still that white space, but there was no apostle, even his teammates disappeared, and the difference was that there was an extra mirror in front of him.
Lin Xiu walked towards the mirror, and the moment he took a look, the sound of a machine also came out of the mirror.
"Enter the final battlefield personnel of the lower rank, Lin Xiu, traveler, the system automatically assigns races, this plane needs to make twenty percent fine-tuning on the original appearance, and the system is automatically integrated."
Lin Xiu was still surprised, he didn't understand why there was such a strange thing before entering the last battle, but when he thought of what Xiao Ai said, he was a little relieved.
You need to adjust your appearance according to the apostle's intentions, and in The Elder Scrolls, there is such a modification software, that is, even if you are a companion and teammate, if you don't have some kind of special communication channel, even if you stand in front of you, it will be difficult to recognize, it seems that this last battle is really not ordinarily simple.
"After the adjustment, the traveler is welcome to enter, and after the mission is unlocked 100%, the appearance will be automatically restored."
Lin Xiu's appearance has changed to a certain extent, but his delicate temperament is still there, it seems that no matter how his face changes, he can't change any fierce or handsome face.
Lin Xiu observed himself in the mirror again, at least to have an understanding of his appearance, and after a while, the mirror had begun to flicker with a strong white light, and Lin Xiu stepped in.
The practical intention of the apostle's approach can already be guessed, and it is not uncommon for travelers to be able to travel through various planes of time and space to form alliances, and there are quite a few, for example, in a certain game, the two sides have a common goal, then next, the two teams will naturally be able to sprout a lot of goodwill, and they can join forces to defend against the enemy in the next mission.
Although such a situation cannot be completely avoided, the apostles will always use some methods and means to prevent some of the situations, of course, everything cannot be completely eliminated, as long as there is a certain influence, the apostles are the result of the cause.
It was pitch black in front of me, and I couldn't see anything under my vision.
"Xiao Ai, can you hear me?"
As soon as Lin Xiu entered the plane, he began to use the spirit lock to contact Gray Yuan Ai, but fortunately, before they entered, Xiao Ai had already built a spiritual bridge in advance, so that he could ensure that he could find his teammates in the first time.
"Yes, I'm going to build all of your spiritual network bridges now."
After Xiao Wai's words were finished, Lin Xiu obviously felt as if a door had opened in his brain, and after a while, the voices of his teammates came one after another, which also calmed Lin Xiu's worried mood.
"I can see where you are, now, move to my position, and I'll project the location into everyone's mind, so you can know where you are."
Because she is the creator of the spiritual bridge, Xiao Ai can check all the people who are connected to her spirit, and according to Xiao Ai's instructions, the personnel of the battle scythe team quickly gather together.
Although the vision is not good, after encountering teammates, I can still see the wheel corridor dimly.
"Well, let's tell your own name, otherwise I'm afraid it's hard to tell who's who now."
Lin Xiu was the first to speak, after all, the faces in front of him had all become strangers in his eyes.
Wei Dongxu has become a thick man with a beard, Tan Xiaofan has become an elf with long ears, Xiao Ai has become a long-haired Lori, and Tifa is also an elf, but no matter how it seems to change, it is so beautiful.
"Why, why did I become a Zhengtai, it's not fair, it's a loophole."
Zhang Yi shouted with a sad and indignant face, obviously very dissatisfied with the apostle's adjusted appearance.
"Shut up, it's not like you can't get it back, but it's cute."
Karen said with a funny face, as her words fell, the originally dim vision gradually brightened, and the noisy sound began to sound from all directions, apparently, the sound should have been isolated in some way. (To be continued......)
