Chapter 414, The Forgotten Name
Most of the swarm was attracted to the ancient instrument, and Jasmine and the others were only dealing with the thinnest part of the edge of the swarm.
Even so, with their 3-star strength, it is still too reluctant.
The jumping insects were easy to deal with, and the most dangerous were the stinging snakes and acid sprayers, when the rain of acid enough to cover the sky fell after the first few dozen seconds. Jasmine's only option was to use all of her remaining psionic energy and use one last psionic shield.
The translucent membrane blocked all attacks, but it also blocked Jasmine and Zhang Xiu's forward momentum, and the two three-star reincarnators had no hope of continuing to break through.
When the shield dissipated, a lizard more than eight meters long stabbed Jasmine's bullet and stabbed her in the stomach with its long sharp horns. At the last moment, Jasmine used an electromagnetic sniper rifle to remove most of the force, but she was still hit in the shoulder, and the whole person spun in the air, and the sniper rifle that had been with her for many years was folded into two pieces.
That wasn't the end of the story, as more than a dozen monsters that looked like pangolins leaped up in unison and swung their claws at Jasmine, who was in mid-air.
Looking at the approaching claws, Jasmine only felt that her heart was full of despair.
Not to mention going to rescue Zheng Yan and Li Lian, with her 3-star strength, it is impossible to protect herself.
This world is so cruel, it will not be good to you because you are kind, it will not betray because you are benevolent, and it will not give you the opportunity to exercise and grow because you are weak.
Forget it, so be it.
A deep sense of exhaustion rose from the bottom of her heart, and Jasmine only felt that it was all in vain to persist for so long.
That's enough, take all the responsibilities and burdens off and let it all end here.
Under siege by the swarm, she. I closed my eyes.
"Jasmine, wake up!"
The warm liquid drenched her cheeks, and one hand gently stroked her cheeks.
Jasmine opened her eyes and saw herself protected by a golden shield. Zhang Xiu looked at himself with a pale face, and a broken claw was inserted in his chest.
"Nope! Sister Zhang, what's wrong with you! Jasmine hurriedly got up and tried to help her with her wounds. But faced with the wound that had pierced her heart, Jasmine had no idea what to do.
What's even more strange is that the penetrated wound has stopped bleeding, as if Zhang Xiu's blood has been exhausted.
In Jasmine's perception, what stood in front of her was not a living thing, but like earth and stone, lifeless.
"This spell can protect you for a few minutes, and that's the limit I can do for you." The woman named Zhang Xiu smiled softly and looked at Jasmine. It's like looking at your own daughter.
"What spell?" Jasmine stared at the almost unbreakable golden shield, which was many times more powerful than her own psionic shield.
Jasmine knows very well that Zhang Xiu definitely does not have such strength.
"Hehe, I secretly exchanged a skill called 'Holy Intervention', it seems that it is indeed a very powerful skill, but it comes at a price......" A smile appeared on Zhang Xiu's pale cheeks.
"That's ...... Sister Zhang! You can't...... I don't want that! If you leave me...... I...... I ......"
Using all of its life as a driving force, Holy Intervention can exert a defensive effect far beyond its own strength. Even if you are in the center of the swarm, you will not be able to move when you are attacked by countless claws, fangs, and acid.
However. This powerful defense will inevitably cost lives.
"Jasmine, it's finally time for this. I'm leaving you. But this is only temporary, as long as the cycle continues, we will meet again sooner or later. Zhang Xiu brushed away Jasmine's wet hair and helped her wipe the blood from her forehead.
"Jasmine, don't be sad, what you feel right now may not be real. It's not necessarily your true self that motivates you to act. This reincarnation world of the Supreme God...... Hidden a secret, a ...... A secret that is enough to subvert everyone's cognition. Zhang Xiu's words were full of magic, waking Jasmine from the grief of her teammate's imminent death.
"Sister Zhang...... What are you talking about? ”
"Take this."
Zhang Xiu held a silver badge in his hand and handed it to Jasmine. The front of the badge was engraved with a pattern resembling a trident, and on the back was engraved a line of text:
Zhang Xiu slowly read out the words: "We are forgotten people, the shadow of the reincarnated world." True Guardians. will be the enemy of reincarnation and let the gods fall. ”
"What is this?" Jasmine's mind became a mess, and she subconsciously felt that this badge was familiar to her, but she couldn't remember anything.
"Alright, Jasmine, my mission is complete, and it's time for you to complete your mission. You have to live, keep getting stronger, keep growing, until you transcend this samsara, and this is our sad wish for the forgotten name. ”
After finishing speaking, Zhang Xiu's body gradually became transparent, as if swallowed by the light.
Jasmine felt empty in her arms, and the comrade-in-arms who had been with her the longest time, from the beginning of the person who took care of her like a mother, had become a grain of light, scattered with the wind.
"Why!"
Why are you so weak? Why can't you stop anything yourself.
Why do you still have to watch your teammates die one by one even though you have worked so hard?
Why did Sister Zhang, who she was most familiar with, seem so ...... at the last moment of her life? Unfamiliar?
Pinching the silver badge in her hand, Jasmine couldn't figure it out, couldn't figure it out, but a wave of resentment burned in her heart, burning more and more.
She discarded the broken sniper rifle in her hand and raised two electromagnetic pistols to fire until the barrels overheated and destroyed. She took out another dagger and fought like crazy in the swarm.
Her battle suit was torn by claws, and blood spilled from her petite body. She roared, squeezing out the almost dry psionic energy in her body again, turning it into a psionic storm like never before.
Lightning raged, and charred corpses were all around. When Li Lian dragged Zheng Yan to Jasmine's side, he only saw a girl covered in bruises, hanging her head and crying silently.
"What about Sister Zhang...... Sister Zhang! Captain Jasmine...... Jasmine ......" Zheng Yan rushed to Jasmine's side, wanting to ask, but her expression had already answered.
Now, there are only two people left in the raider team, Jasmine and Zheng Yan.
There was no time for grief, and a scream woke the two of them up.
Above the sky, more than a dozen missiles dragging the flames crossed the heads of the three of them, and smashed down on the center of the swarm, where the ancient instrument was!
In the impact of the earth-shaking mountains, the fire of hell rises into the sky and consumes everything!
"That's ...... Napalm! Zheng Yan's pupils shrank. (To be continued.) )
