Chapter 15 Bloom II
Walking in the rainforest, Sue's ears suddenly moved, as if catching a faint cry. Within the scope of the panorama, Su is almost omnipotent, but some single means of perception, such as sight and hearing, have a range far beyond the boundaries of the panorama. Sue called to Kubire and told him to lead his troops onward, while he dragged his heavy axe backwards and walked slowly towards the place where the sound came. His bare feet stepped on the damp deciduous grass branches, as light as a feather. Even if he walked on the thorns of poisonous thorns, the thorns would not break, and Sue's feet would not be broken.
Nothing had happened where Sue had passed, as if no living beings had passed by at all. From the moment he turned around, Sue's footsteps quickened, and in the blink of an eye, he disappeared into the depths of the rainforest.
Deep in the rainforest, a panther silently leaps from tree to tree. Amber eyes kept staring through the foliage, staring at the two preys. Those were two people, prey rarely seen in the rainforest. And two prey species of such height are even rarer. But the panther is very clever and knows that this prey, although delicious, is unusually dangerous. Moreover, the rainforest was getting quieter, and the panther's neck hair slowly stood up, and a low growl came out of its throat. It could feel that several powerful opponents had also set their sights on the two preys. It became increasingly anxious, eager to get its prey before it could get its hands on the rest of its opponents. But the preponderance of the rainforest predator's intuition made it hesitate, as if some unseen danger was looming around.
Walking in the rainforest was an old man and a young girl. The girl's slightly dark skin looks healthy and vibrant, but her panicked look can't hide her beautiful face. She followed the old man and ran through the rainforest. The old man was the first to clear the way, and a golden short knife in his hand kept slashing through the jungle. The old man was covered in sweat, his silver hair was sticking to his face, and the finely made dress was cut one after another. Between his eyebrows, there was a faint hint of melancholy. Every time he walked, he would stop and ask the girl how she felt, and the girl would point out a direction.
The girl does not know how to hide her thoughts like the old man, and her little face is full of fear and panic, but there is also indescribable stubbornness. Great fear, like a giant stalking in the dark, is approaching. But she couldn't do anything other than run a little faster. And she also felt something strange from the old man's demeanor, and understood that the old man clearly sensed something, but he didn't tell her. She bit her lower lip, relying on a vague perception of Su in her instinct to determine the direction of progress, but she was actually apprehensive in her heart.
The panther suddenly became inexplicably anxious, it let out a low roar, jumped up suddenly, and pounced on the two prey condescendingly. It struck the girl, and she gave it a sharp tingling sensation, a sign of danger.
The panther's pupils reflected the girl's slightly panicked face, and then she raised her hands, and the sight immediately became distorted and blurred, and then there was a sharp pain all over its body, which made it cry out involuntarily.
The black panther leaping in the air was instantly covered in flames, and its desperately struggling body was like a burning meteorite, smashing into the inexperienced girl who had forgotten to dodge. The old man took a step from the side and punched the panther a few meters away. Just a negligibly short contact, a thin layer of flame stuck to the old man's fist. He immediately plunged his fist into the soil, which extinguished the flames, and when he pulled it out again, the old man's hand was already charred black.
This is a rare spell-like ability of the fourth order of the girl, ignited. It can instantly trigger ultra-high flames around the target, and it is very sticky. The old man was burned by the flames just by touching it instantly. In terms of the power of the flame, the flame that was ignited and driven had already reached the level of the sixth order.
The rainforest was so quiet that even the chirping of insects had disappeared.
The old man's face was solemn, and he was told that it was not because the death of the panther had frightened the other predators, but because some powerful predator who could subdue a qiΔ creature had arrived.
"Is there something coming?" The girl was visibly timid.
"It doesn't matter, it's nothing. Didn't you kill that panther? The old man's calm voice calmed the girl a little, even though she knew that the old man was only comforting her.
The old man's voice fell, and the rainforest fell into a deeper silence, even the sound of the wind and the swaying of the branches had stopped. On the contrary, the voices inside the bodies of the old man and the girl, including the heartbeat and blood flow, became more and more grandiose in this extremely silent environment!
Just when the silence was about to make people crazy, an eerie and damp voice suddenly sounded in the girl's ear: "What an intoxicating taste! β
The voice was dark and damp, and an icy sensation slid across the girl's neck, like being licked by some lizard deep underground.
The girl screamed and staggered forward a few steps before running to the old man and hiding behind him. The old man stood upright like an ancient pine, staring at the middle-aged man in black who suddenly appeared, and then sighed.
It was a tall, thin man, who looked to be in his thirties, with the same sickly pale face, short black hair and a neatly trimmed short beard that accentuated a strong aristocratic atmosphere. He wore an informal black gown, without a shirt on his upper body, and through the open placket he could see the perfect body as colored as ivory.
The old man's face changed several times, and finally froze on the gloom. He sighed and said slowly, "I really didn't expect that the temple would actually send you out this time. However, the temple has invested so much, and you come to chase me and a little girl, it seems a little unworthy, right? β
The man smiled gracefully and said, "I know you, you were originally Murray's steward." That little girl, if I'm not mistaken, should be called Ye Lijie. I met her once ten years ago, when she was just over two years old. Don't worry, old fellow, I'm not here for you. It was Ye Lijie's taste that attracted me! β
Speaking of this, the man's eyes clearly burned with an almost fanatical light, and a scarlet tongue stretched out and licked it around his lips: "Her taste is simply intoxicating!" That's the breath of youth, growth, and strength! Moreover, she is still so beautiful, so young. Her amazing potential makes her like a jewel, destined to shine in the darkness of the eternal night! I was reluctant to eat her, even though her blood almost made it impossible for me to resist the temptation of instinct! So, now, I have a jian, a very, very generous jianyΓ¬, and I hope you guys can seriously consider it. β
He paused, pointed to Ye Lijie, and said in a declarative tone: "You, Ye Lijie, will be my apprentice and wife from now on!" You can be powerful and elegant, and with me, become immortal in the dark! If you agree, then I might even consider sparing this old fellow, who is too humble to be a victim of the Eternal Night. β
Being stared at by a man, Ye Lijie only felt cold all over, and she didn't even dare to poke her head out from behind the old man. Only the old man's sturdy body could give her a sense of security. Before the fear of death, she almost gave in, but the result of repeated hesitation made her tremble and say, "I...... I refuse ......"
As soon as the words came out, Ye Lijie immediately regretted it. Death is real, and it's right around the corner! She knew better that she didn't have a second chance.
Sure enough, the man raised his eyebrows and said coldly, "Then, you can go and die." Before I die, I will make you feel the taste of blood running all over your body! β
There was a faint smell of tea on the men's bodies, which the old man knew was a natural instinct of theirs, secreting bodily fluids that kept the blood of their prey from clotting while keeping their bodies alive for hours. In the Temple of the Sun, this was one of the most brutal punishments for the execution of heavy heretics.
The man smiled cruelly and gracefully, and held out his hand to the old man and the girl. But as soon as the pale and slender five fingers were stretched, they suddenly froze halfway!
A strange shriek sound sounded in the rainforest, and for a moment, it seemed as if thousands of trees were trembling with awe! In the man's sight, the bark of many ancient trees fluttered, and insects crawled out of their hiding places as if they had encountered a catastrophe. However, as soon as exposed to the whistling sound, they immediately explode into clumps of blood powder. A giant python also crawled out of the hole in the tree, but only halfway through it, it lay down and did not move. Its scales slowly erected, bleeding from under each scale.
The man's hair slowly stood on end, and his sickly skin quickly became a bright red. His pupils had shrunk into two slits, staring in a certain direction!
There, the low bushes suddenly burst into green mist, and a heavy axe spun out through the forest, slashing through the air! The blade of the axe was shrouded in a thick blood-colored light, which was a violent energy purely used for destruction, and it continued to emit a sharp whistling sound as it swirled, and the place where the sound wave passed, life was extinguished!
Ye Lijie suddenly screamed, desperately covered her ears with her hands, and fell to the ground, rolling in pain. The old man's face was also pale, clutching his chest tightly, and he might fall down at any moment. However, the two of them didn't die, which was unexpected by the man. But at this time, he could no longer care about the old man and the girl, and all his attention was on the heavy axe that flew and slashed.
He suddenly let out an equally sharp scream, and his whole body shrunk into a ball, and the surrounding ten meters of the radius suddenly darkened, and the thick darkness spread out like fog. Then the image of a man jumped out of the darkness, and he crashed into the heavy axe of the Spinner at an incredible speed!
The rainforest suddenly darkened for a moment, and then it returned to normal.
The scream of destruction in the forest had disappeared, and the blood-colored light on the blade of the heavy axe had almost disappeared, and instead there was a trace of black qi entwined. The man straightened up again, the darkness around him shrinking to only about a meter. The gown on his chest slowly cracked, and a corresponding cut appeared on his chest, which continued to extend. The flesh was also a miserable white, like a specimen soaked in formalin. And there was no blood in the wound.
The heavy axe spun back and was held by Sue. He casually lifted his heavy axe, walked out of the rainforest, and said to the man, "Don't you think it's an insult to her that she's the woman I have used to make you a wife?" You're such a narcissist! β
Su's words made the man's eyelids jump wildly a few times, and his noble identity was his untouchable scales, but it was accurately and completely lifted by Su. He stared at Sue, Su's bare feet, brightly colored wide pants, bright red straps around his waist, *** and well-defined upper body, and heavy axes full of strength and beauty, all symbols of the high rank of the imperial samurai. Su's momentum is fierce and flamboyant, and if the summer is sunny and thunderous, it is also the momentum of a typical high-ranking samurai. If he hadn't known that none of the high-ranking samurai had such a look, he would have almost mistakenly thought that he was facing a governor or even a figure at the rank of Grand Duke. He stared at Su for a long time before he said, "The empire doesn't have green eyes. β
"I'm not from the empire in the first place, I'm here to destroy the Miè Empire." Sue replied with a smile.
"Ruined the Miè Empire? Is it up to you? The man laughed sharply, like a bat hiding countless bloodsucking bats. In a sickly laugh, two extremely sharp handleless daggers slipped from their sleeves to their hands.
Brush Brush Brush! The short knife transformed into two clouds of light and shadow, and then suddenly settled in his hand, and in the process, countless ripples of energy spread out in all directions, only to disappear several meters away. The figure of the man blurred, then disappeared completely. After he disappeared, many branches and grass blades fell silently from the place where he had stood. It turns out that those energy ripples are actually extremely sharp, and they have extraordinary cutting power.
Sue took a step forward, just in time to dodge a short blade that stabbed the back of the neck. Then the heavy axe seemed to lose all its weight and slashed backwards like a feather. The man's figure suddenly appeared in front of the axe blade, his eyes flashed with a different color, and he quickly stepped back, and the slash of the giant axe flashed invisibly, and then he entered a state of stealth again.
The forest was still very silent, and if you closed your eyes, you couldn't hear any sounds of battle. The battle between Sue and the man was like a silent movie being shown.
Sue's movements are simple, occasionally moving forward and backward, but he can always dodge the short knife that suddenly appears just right. The speed of the heavy axe was already incredibly fast, and the red light condensed on the blade of the axe pulled out pale red tracks in the air, dancing around Su Fei. The figure of a man always appears in front of the heavy axe, and can always dodge at the last moment.
Both sides moved so fast that they didn't know how many times they had attacked each other. The heavy axe is like a giant shark in the sea, cruising erratically, but each swing makes the man narrowly avoid. The short knife is even more eerie, as if it has broken through the limitations of time and space, appearing in one place, then disappearing, and then reappearing in another.
The battle between Su and the man barely brought a rumor, but the old man and Ye Lijie stood in place and didn't dare to move. Countless energy undercurrents grazed their bodies, and with the slightest movement, these energy undercurrents sharper than the blades could easily cut their bodies into countless pieces. Being able to remain unscathed in the undercurrent of energy, they all knew that it was not because of luck, but the result of Su Keyi's maintenance.
Maybe it was because he couldn't attack for a long time, or maybe it was because the old man and Ye Lijie were dissatisfied with the play-like attitude, the man suddenly flashed in front of the two, and two short knives cut into the throats of the two of them!
When the two bell-like metal knocks sounded, they almost broke the eardrums of the old man and Ye Lijie. The heavy axe blocked the two short knives in time, but the axe surface on the other side was already attached to the tip of the girl's nose!
Su seemed a little hasty, and the man immediately seized this opportunity and launched a stormy attack! The dense metal knocking sound was completely connected, and when the long sound dissipated, Sue took two steps back, two more crossed wounds on his chest. Su looked down at the wound on his chest, his eyes suddenly turned absolutely cold, and he said lightly: "You crossed the line." β
Su suddenly took a big step forward to the left, and the heavy axe fell from the sky like a bolt of lightning!
The heavy axe slashed deep into the ground, and Sue didn't lift it up again, but quietly looked ahead.
The figure of the man slowly appeared, his face pale, and he took a step back. As soon as he moved, a red thread appeared from his forehead and stretched all the way down to his lower abdomen.
The man's voice suddenly became hoarse, and he struggled to say, "You...... How is it possible to see through my invisibility!? β
"Because the smell on your body can be smelled from several kilometers away."
"Impossible!"
Su ignored the man's doubts, but walked over, grabbed him directly by the collar and lifted him up, chose an ancient tree that several people could hug together, and threw him under the tree. The injuries on the man's body were only a thin line of blood in the center of his body, and it looked like Sue's injuries were more serious. But the man's body was as stiff as a corpse at this time, completely incapacitated, and his breath became dying, and it seemed that the scar was definitely not as simple as it appeared.
The man stared at Sue with irresolvable hatred in his eyes, and said with a sneer: "You want to torture me? I advise you not to waste your time. Just kill me, the torture won't have any effect on me. And if you kill me, the Dark Sanctuary will never let you go! β
Su swept his eyes around, and finally found a small tree that he liked next to him, cut it down with an axe, and then cut and sorted out the trunk in a few clicks, and said as he did this: "Saying such things means that you are just a small role in some dark temple. But you can tell from you that you are the ones who have been hiding in the dark for so long that your heads are full of stinking pus and blood. That's why I can smell that rancid, moldy smell. Do you want me to kill you, and then you can take the opportunity to escape? Hehe, unfortunately, I happen to know a few ways to kill you completely. Of course, I won't let you die so easily, since you have played the realm, you will have to pay the corresponding price! β
The man sat under the tree, and originally wanted to say a few sarcastic words, but after seeing a few wooden toons cut by Su with a heavy axe, his face gradually changed.
With a thud, in the man's terrible screams, a wooden tree had already passed through his wrist and nailed him to the ancient tree. Subsequently, his other hand and both feet were also nailed into the wooden tree. Four wooden towels were nailed in, and the man was already dying. His face was completely distorted, and it was conceivable that the pain was beyond the limits of what he could bear. When Sue pointed the fifth wooden tsubaki at the man's heart, the man's will finally collapsed, trembling and begging: "No, don't!" Don't kill me, I can tell you all the secrets of the Dark Temple! β
With a thud, Mu Tsubaki broke deep into his chest and pierced the man's heart. Immediately, a scream resounded through almost the entire rainforest!
Looking at the man's painful and desperate face, Su was very satisfied with his masterpiece, and said with a smile, "I have no interest in the Dark Temple, in contrast, I would rather watch you die slowly after seven days." βE
