Chapter 1 Darkness and Hope II
Wisps of sharp energy still swirled within Persephone's Ti, constantly fighting with Persephone's own energy conflict, leaving subtle damage to her body wherever she passed. These are the forces left behind by Elena, and they are extremely difficult to eliminate. For three days, Persephone had only hit half of the time with all her might. It will probably take another week to completely eliminate them. But she knew she couldn't have that much time. Elena was able to sense Persephone through these energies, and Persephone was also able to sense her in reverse. When these energies suddenly became active this morning, Persephone knew that Elena was already in the driver's seat.
The little life in the womb suddenly moved, it sent out a strong message, biting a piece of energy that was floating nearby, tearing fiercely. It had already sensed the hostility contained in these energies, but Persephone had been careful to protect it from the ruining energies. Now it finally got a chance to capture one of the energys, but immediately realized that it was not the desired delicacy. The aura, rich in energy, constantly vibrates its body structure, destroying and neutralizing its genetic power. The little creature screamed in pain, but it inspired the incomparable ferocity in Benying, and it struggled to devour the power of destruction to make up for the damage in its body.
Eventually, this energy was devoured by it, and it became dying, no longer daring to provoke the rest of the ruining energy.
This time, when Persephone persuaded it to leave again, it finally relented.
A moment later, with a groan of pain, Persephone had a warm, wriggling mass between her legs. And with a weak and satisfied smile, she barely supported her body and reached out to hug the little thing.
It's a small thing, weighing three kilograms, and its pink skin looks very cute. It has a fusiform body, a pointed head, and a thick, short tail. It has four very short limbs on its body, waving non-stop. Judging by the movement of the swings, there is no bone at all in these four Ru limbs, which are only a few centimeters long. The surface of its body is wet and sticks to many nutrient fluids instead of the amniotic fluid of the human mother. Like the little life in Li's belly, it has also transformed its living environment, but Cheng DΓΉ is much softer. It has no facial features, but a small opening is made at the tip of its head, and a slender tongue of tens of centimeters sticks out from it, constantly licking and sucking the nutrient solution all over its body.
"Poor little one, are you hungry?" Persephone took the little one in her arms, kissed it gently, and then unfastened her chest to reveal her shocking breasts. The little one's survival was immediately made to move its body, and it fell on Persephone's chest and sucked the juice.
Persephone lay quietly, watching it quietly, feeling its every movement with her whole body and mind. She didn't know when she would see it again, or if she would ever see it again. Its body is not large, but its need for food is completely disproportionate to its body. It wasn't until she sucked Persephone's juice out that she writhed her body in satisfaction. If the mother were not Persephone, she would probably only be half-full.
But looking at the little one's appearance, Persephone finally felt a little worried. She didn't care if it was human or not, but without its human appearance, her original plan would have been difficult to achieve. Just when she was worried, the little guy seemed to sense what she was thinking, and many small holes suddenly opened on the surface of her body, spewing out clouds of white mist. The Ru juice it had just absorbed was rapidly transforming into energy and new body tissue, and its completely skeletless body was slowly twisting and deforming. Grains of bone-like material begin to emerge and gradually join together into bones. The bones are then moved to their respective positions, connected together, and begin to grow the corresponding muscle tissues and nerves.
Ten minutes later, a beautiful human male baby appeared in front of Persephone, looking at Persephone with big shining eyes, biting her fingers, and smiling.
Seeing this miraculous change, Persephone sighed softly. If you don't know that Sue's identity is problematic until now, it would be too stupid. In fact, when she felt the growth of the little life in her womb, Persephone had already guessed, and Helen had hinted at it many times. But Persephone always refused to think about it.
If Sue isn't human, then what is he? Will he still have human emotions?
What Persephone really doesn't want to face is the latter problem.
Her head started hurting again.
While gently rubbing the corners of her forehead, Persephone said to the little one, "By the way, just keep it like this, and then grow up slowly." After you really grow up, go to your father, his name is Sue. Remember Mom's words, you can only go to him when you are really growing up! Mom is leaving you, and you have to grow up on your own in the future. Don't be afraid, you are your mother's little baby, you will be very lucky, after all, your mother and I are super lucky geniuses, haha! β
Persephone smiled, not knowing that she was shedding tears.
She tore off her coat, made a simple swaddling cloth, wrapped the little one in it, and earnestly admonished: "Mom, go find someone to raise you, you have to be obedient." Remember not to move and grow up! β
The little one nodded as if he didn't understand, and his big shining, pure eyes were still staring at Persephone. Only then did Persephone realize that the pupil of the little guy's left eye was gray-blue, which was obviously the result of a combination of her and Sue, but the right eye showed a hint of gold in the gray-blue. But after looking at its original form when it was born and the whole process of its transformation into a human baby, the peculiarity of the eye color could not surprise Persephone.
She took a deep look at the baby, kissed it lightly on its tiny lips, sighed, and said softly, "When I was born, I knew how to make myself so beautiful and grow up...... Surely he looks like your dad! That's fine, if someone picks you up, they shouldn't be willing to throw you away. β
Talking to herself, Persephone had already stood up, simply packed her clothes, and then moved away from the rocks that sealed the door of the cave, and walked into the wind and snow outside the cave.
Moments later, Persephone appeared next to a small village. At this time, the sky was already bright, and the village began to smoke from the cooking stoves, and there were people moving. The village was located on the edge of the snow line, and there were only a dozen families in it, and there were a few men with first- to second-order abilities. The village belonged to the Holy Radiant Crusaders and was built primarily to collect logs and provide supplies for those who were preparing to climb the mountains. The nearby forest is rich in game, which makes the people of this village stable and prosperous.
In this era, infant mortality is very high, and because of the dramatic increase in fertility rates, people do not pay attention to newborns. Most babies are born with some degree of mutation, and pure-blooded humans are very rare. Decades of experience have proven that pure-blooded humans without mutations are more gifted in abilities, which makes pure-blood babies extremely valuable.
Persephone put the child under a large tree at the entrance of the village and quietly left. She knew that in two minutes, a few men would come out of the village, and they would just pass by, and then they would see their children. The little guy's delicate skin has already declared his identity as a pure-blood human, and it is impossible for a large organization like the Holy Cross to compete with the Dark Dragoon not knowing the meaning of a pure-blood human. They should bring the child back and raise it slowly, and as for whether they will find out the secrets of the child, Persephone can only pray. Put the child here, at least there is a glimmer of life, if you follow her, it will be a dead end.
Persephone straightened her clothes and hair, put on her glasses again, took out the last of her treasured pencil, and disappeared in the direction of the snow-capped mountains without looking back.
It's not that she doesn't want to, but she doesn't dare to look back. She knew that if she looked back, she might never be able to leave. And then, she will bring disaster to the child to destroy miè.
Two minutes later, several men left the village with automatic rifles on their shoulders, talking and laughing. They passed by the big tree and found the swaddling clothes under the tree, but it was only a swaddling one, and the baby inside was gone.
As night fell, Elena suddenly snorted softly, and her face became very strange. Oberen, of course, noticed the change in her, but she didn't have time to ask. His face turned pale, and he tried his best to suppress the tumbling stomach so that the contents would not come out of his throat. In fact, there was nothing in his stomach except gastric juice. He hadn't eaten for two days in a row, just a few sips of water. After a long day of being beaten by Elena for disliking his slow speed, Oberen's skeleton almost fell apart. But as long as he can catch up with Persephone quickly, he can bear any kind of pain and humiliation, and in the illusion of the Hobiru, Oberen has endured dozens of times the pain.
"I've sensed Persephone, it's strange that she's coming towards me." Elena muttered to herself. Persephone's behavior is no different from suicide. Because as long as the distance is far enough, Elena can only roughly perceive the direction, and cannot accurately locate it. If Persephone had been able to run farther, she might have lost her senses.
Elena had always been a diligent person who was diligent in action and lazy in thinking, and she didn't want to think too much, so she grabbed Oberen, her body was already floating off the ground, and she suddenly lifted up to full speed, and flew towards Persephone with all her might.
An hour later, Elena and Persephone stood opposite each other, her big eyes constantly surveying Persephone's flat abdomen, her face growing with surprise.
"You're already raw? What about children? Elena finally couldn't help but ask.
"Do you think it's possible for me to tell you about your child's whereabouts? Don't waste any more time, don't you want to kill me, then come on! A pencil jumped on Persephone's fingertips, and the swirling tip of the pen couldn't help but let out a sharp whimper.
At this moment, Persephone smiled beautifully and charmingly, more like a faint layer of brilliance. Elena finally admits that her appearance is still not as good as that of the general, who has just become a mother, but her mood is not as depressed as she imagined.
Looking at Persephone, Elena was stunned for a moment before she sighed softly and said, "You...... You came back specifically to die? Just to keep me from finding your child? β
Persephone smiled, acquiescing. Seeing that Elena seemed to be slackening, she suddenly let out a low cry, her body suddenly rushed forward, and the pencil stabbed Elena!
It wasn't until the pencil was about to stab her throat that Elena seemed to wake up from the shock. As a true saint-rank powerhouse in the spell-like domain, on the side of her body, several layers of defensive force fields had been instantly emitted. But the power attached to Persephone's pencil is so strong and fierce that there is no turning back, and it is deeply hers. Even with only a sixth-order strength, the pencil broke Elena's force field one by one, and at the end there was still a little force left to slash across her cheeks, leaving a shallow blood mark on her delicate skin.
Elena finally sensed the danger, and seven or eight of Yin's strange spell-like abilities bombarded Persephone's body almost at the same time, none of these spells were directly attacked, all of them were spells that attached various negative states and limited her mobility. Spell-like abilities of the restricted class are very rare, and even the powerhouses of the eighth-order spell-like realm often only have two or three such abilities. However, Elena alone has nearly ten abilities that can be instantaneous, and her terrifying talent in the realm of spell-like is truly shocking.
Persephone was instantly frozen in the air, completely immobile.
Elena suddenly asked, "Is it worth it?" Are you for the kids, or for Sue? β
Persephone, who awaited her fate, was very calm, and she thought about it seriously before she said, "There should be both!" β
Elena sighed, waved her hand to remove one of Persephone's restraints, and said, "I don't want to kill you, come back with me." β
Persephone directly refused: "Impossible! You should know that, as a woman, I'd rather let you go back with my body than become a captive! β
"This time it's for Sue?" Elena's eyes shimmered with an uncertain light.
Persephone took a deep breath and smiled brightly, "Perhaps." β
Elena didn't speak, not knowing what she was thinking, but she was thinking very seriously. After thinking for a while, and not seeming to find an answer, she shook her head a little irritably, deciding to throw those messy thoughts aside first. Elena carried Oberen, who had fallen into a coma, and shook it in front of Persephone, saying, "He has promised to be the father of my future child, and in exchange, I will neither kill you nor arrest you." So rest assured, we are no longer enemies. β
"What did you say?!" The news was so sudden that Persephone could hardly believe her ears.
At this time, Oberen finally woke up. The pain, combined with hunger and fatigue, tortured him to the point that he could barely stand up, and even when he woke up, he could only barely stand on his feet by leaning on Elena's body. The first moment he opened his eyes, he saw Persephone, and his heart was immediately settled. Oberen could only smile weakly, but he couldn't even speak.
Persephone looked at Oberen, then at Elena, and suddenly reached out and grabbed Oberen's face, pinched it viciously, and said, "Your new job looks very good, well, you have to work hard, work hard, let her have more children!" β
"That's what I thought, too." Elena said.
Persephone was stunned. Looking at Elena's extremely serious expression, she was finally defeated.
