Chapter 9: The Song of the Insects (6)

[Six: The Spider's Intent]

The gap is long, and the void weaves horizontally. The childish pity the round net, and the beautiful woman wishes happiness. The dark gap of knowing the fate was suddenly bitten on the soft muscles. It is easy to attack the poisonous stomach, and it is too late to burn the heart to heal. Look at the long Zoroass and the ripples of flat desire.

"Harden!" Before he could think about anything else, Zhaohua caught up with the angry boy.

"Leave me alone. There was still a looming violence on his body, and Harden didn't look back.

"I know you're uncomfortable, but you should still follow—"

Harden, who was going up the stone steps, suddenly turned around, which caught Zhaohua off guard and almost fell down the steps.

"I didn't hold back just now, I was wrong, I admit it!" Angry's face showed a strange wildness in the dim light of the embankment, and Harden's bareless eyes seemed to radiate magma heat in the abyss, "But I don't have anything to say to him!"

The enraged bird did not listen to the advice, and Zhaohua, who realized this, finally felt a trace of fear. He couldn't take a step forward, but he didn't want to or dare to retreat, he could only tilt his head in fear and look at the condescending Harden.

"Now, there shouldn't be any more misunderstandings and hurts......" he said softly, but was interrupted by Harden with a sneer-

"I misunderstood something, you say!"

This...... That's right, he didn't know anything about the adoptive father and son, and only enthusiasm was useless.

"I don't know anything and have the qualifications to mix, you think I'll have to thank you for that?"

"I ...... That's not what it means...... Zhaohua couldn't help but take a step back, his voice was weak in the wavering, not good......

"Don't come near me, I don't need your sympathy! Even if I can't see it, I'm ten million times stronger than you, who deserves your pity!"

"Stinky boy, have you said enough?" this time it was Dimon who roared, "Xiaohua is just worried about you, don't you do something practical when you have time to yell? Why don't you listen to it? You are strong, but you have to use your strength on the right path! Demolition is very powerful, is it very good to yell at friends? Does it have to make people afraid and people to avoid it? Tell me, Harden Tesla!"

No...... Although Dimon had good intentions, Zhaohua didn't think that now was the time to say such a thing-

Harden was poked in the sore spot, and then laughed sharply after a moment of consternation: "You've put up with me for a long time, don't you? You think I'm useless and annoying, right?

“...... Can you mature a little bit? Is it time to break up?" was probably taken aback, and Dimon's counterattack was noticeably weaker.

"You all hate me like this, don't you? I'm sorry I'm such a person, if you don't like it, leave me alone!" The burning anger pierced at anyone like a thorn, and Harden had never looked so terrible.

"It's like someone likes your stinky temper very much, if you don't really want you to be good, who wants to quarrel with you, and be a little more considerate of others!" "The worst thing is that Dimon is also temperamental, and now the killing intent they exude is even more terrifying.

"What the hell is going on?" Mochizuki had already rushed over at this time, and now that the demons had dispersed, the atmosphere was even more depressing, and the situation must have puzzled him.

"It's nothing, it'll be fine in a while. Dimon was gloomy, but that drew Harden into a sneer.

"That's a big problem, aren't you here to scold me for not knowing moderation?" Harden was still sharp, which made Mochizuki also show an uneasy expression.

The eyes of Mochizuki's seniors were looking for Mr. He...... Thinking like this, Zhaohua couldn't help but clench the small box.

Or do you want to convey ...... But in what capacity can I persuade him? It shouldn't be himself, but at this time, Mr. He ...... But you can't expect others to do it, Mr. He is unwell, he must be very angry when he encounters this situation, and Harden is also stimulated a lot...... Something should be done!

"You're already disappointed in me, aren't you? Don't you just want me to admit my mistakes and make me obedient?" When he came back to his senses, Harden was still arguing with Dimon, "I finally suppressed the anger and lay down, don't you also say that I can't do that? What do you want me to do?"

Don't do that again...... Zhaohua plucked up the courage to speak again: "It's not like that, we don't think you-"

"Don't sympathize with me!" Harden's expression at the moment seemed to be distorted by a demon, strange, and even ugly.

Feeling the anger in his heart begin to boil, Zhaohua couldn't help but cover his chest.

"Are you okay?" Sensing his abnormality, Mochizuki hurriedly asked.

"I'm fine, it's just ......" Zhaohua shook his head weakly, revealing a wry smile of self-deprecation, "I thought I had the courage to come to see you......"

This feeling is probably sad and disappointed, obviously I look forward to Harden's straightforwardness and bravery, which is completely different from my introverted and boring self who is attached to Musk, why does such a dazzling character become a terrible beast! The churning anger and disappointment are accompanied by inexplicable killing intent, and something rises in the depths of consciousness...... What's the matter, is it a dream, this feeling of dizziness and peeling-

"Xiaohua?" Dimon cried out in disgust.

Zhaohua felt unsteady under his feet, and his body began to shake uncontrollably, almost falling down the stairs. Consciousness has become distant in the confusion, and I can't see Harden clearly, is it......

This was the first time he began to clearly recognize that there was something else in his body, and the last image in his consciousness was a large bruise and purple bruise wound around his right arm like a snake, faintly appearing in the shape of a hand and choking his wrist-

It's "his" hand...... In the feeling of falling into the mire, he heard his own - "his" voice sounded coldly above -

"It's a mess, and sure enough, there has to be an enemy on the surface. ”

-plenilune

This is also a weird and terrifying thing for Mochizuki, and it feels like witnessing a ghost.

After the Wenxiu child shook it a few times, a large bruise suddenly appeared on the bare slender arm, and the ecchymosis seemed to show ...... What do the hands look like?

Before he could speak, the kid had already said something strange, could it be—

When he hesitated, the black tide was already surging and beating, and Mochizuki hurriedly defended, and the cold and terrifying feeling that instantly penetrated his nerves was indeed the power of black water!

"Harden! there's no time to lose your temper—" Dimon also let out a startled sound, and the sound of metal clashing had already tore at Mochizuki's consciousness, and when he reacted, he had seen Harden block the sudden blow, and the thin red and gorgeous blade scorched the pitch-black hedron sword.

Musk Tajnett ...... "understood the situation even though he couldn't see it, and Harden said coldly.

In response to the child, there was an elegant and calm chuckle, and the chalky young man bent his eyes slightly in the evil aura gathered in the swirling wind: "This is what you brought on yourself...... You're the grandson of Li Daoheng, aren't you?"

In the next second, the black tide surged down again, and the young man's voice seemed to be filled with water vapor everywhere: "Try to see if you are really so strong, blind bird!"

Oh no! Mochizuki could only release his own red-colored flames to resist the Kuroshio, but the misty evil breath advanced and split into countless silk-like objects that were dense and pervasive......

"Don't worry, you can't beat me. There was a bit of a crazy smile on his pale and delicate face, and with such a leisurely mockery, Musk's countless mist satin pounced on Harden and him like life, like a cursed black snake.

"What's the matter?" the girl's clear and energetic voice came from behind, and the incandescent lightning burst through the black silk and burst into a blazing light, which made the demon turn his head coldly—

"You're not so lucky this time!" With the girl's declaration, the white points of light burst out and joined into a double ring of flowing talismans inside and outside in the thick darkness surrounding the demon, and blue star patterns and sigils appeared inside, imprisoning the demon inside!

"Blue World Magic ......" Musk chuckled indifferently, tilting his head slightly sideways, his black eyes under his bangs were as dark as knives, "It's really nostalgic, the beauty of the Blue World Beast." ”

"It's a shame you dare to say that we," Rebecca smiled as she stood in front of Cleo, Cellly, and He Yanfang, "Don't talk too much if you're caught, give up, on the orders of the head of the headquarters, we're going to put you-"

"Is there a king's order arrow so proud, all the eagles and dogs in the world are the same," his gaze lightly swept over Seli's face and then looked sharply at the Bess siblings, Musk's leisurely tone was mocking, "But it's not bad to have this momentum, after all, this is my pathetic Zhaohua's wish, point the finger at me, maybe I can tell the list of the dead." ”

"Mochizuki seniors should also come to help, it's a bit of a hassle to expel the Blackwater guards. Clio said unwaveringly, the divine breath that liberated the blue world was approaching.

"Demigod blood, the ability of the Heavenly Punisher to pick up garbage is really good," Musk sneered, and kicked the small box at his feet to Harden's feet, "I haven't had time to play with you yet, I have to help my poor Zhaohua speak first." ”

"What is this—"

"What your adoptive father wants to give you," after answering Harden bluntly, Musk turned to look at He Yanfang, "It's really sad, He Yanfang, after that woman died, he was alone, and now he can only pick up such a disobedient little ghost to talk to as comfort? ”

Harden's dull eyes seemed to leak heat, and his trembling body stiffened, unaware of who he was angry about. In the direction he was facing, He Yanfang was cold and speechless, just motioning to Mochizuki to prepare for the purification ceremony.

"You're going to hurt Zhaohua, why don't you wait for that kid to come?" The demon's posture in the surging fog was like a spider manipulating a huge web. His smile was low, and every word was cold, "The child who innocently became a container, Zhou Xuesong." ”

Rebecca immediately showed a look of disgust: "Shut up, sowing discord doesn't work anymore-"

"I'm just telling the truth, from the demon's point of view, I have to give you some advice, He Yanfang," ignoring the blazing current generated inside the magic circle, Musk looked directly at He Yanfang, his cold gaze was full of playfulness, "Do you like children so much because you have no children under your knees, or do you yearn for their innocence because you are unclean?"

Despite the same cold eyes, He Yanfang only smiled faintly at this thorny provocation, and cast the silver spark into the magic circle: "I used to think you were dumb, Musk." ”

"I've been silent for too long, of course I've had to say enough, and ......" The pale face that endured the pain still picked a jealous sneer, and Musk's dark eyes burned with a faint light like phosphorus fire, "It's so sad and ridiculous, the children you pinned your hopes on have long been suspicious of each other." ”

The demon with too clear black and white colors had a strange and inexplicable expression of laughter: "Your education is too failed, this kid has always done and is used to that kind of thing, right? Cleaning up peers and the like is no different from us." ”

"That kind of thing—" Harden seemed to retort, but his voice then came to an abrupt end with resentment, which made Musk scoff again.

"Sure enough...... Have you ever done it?" the demon smiled with Zhaohua's face, and his vicious mockery was full of revenge.

"No!" it was Selie who retorted this time, and the usually gentle girl finally showed her anger, "What do you know!"

"Unlike Zhaohua, I don't expect you to wake up on your own......" Musk stared at her and said something of unknown significance, "but you will return to Your Majesty one day." ”

The girl's unwavering eyes only looked at disgust: "Maybe that's when I will avenge my family." ”

"It's useless. The slightly sloppy demon simply continued to resist purification in the circle, dragging the bloated and ornate mist silk, arrogantly playing with the light and shadow even though it could not get out. At this time, his slightly curved eyes radiated a feverish dark light, and Mochizuki, who was suspicious, suddenly realized that someone was coming.

"For Harden Tesla, I can only say that one day he will kill all other children like Gu, and his ability is not what you need the most, I advise you to be careful," Musk deliberately raised his voice, and his exaggerated tone made He Yanfang also shake and burn, "You poured the expected immortal elixir - your innocent and lovely Komatsu will be gouged out by your precious adopted son!"

"What-" The voice of Cedar was powerless to respond, and the child who seemed to have fought hard to get there froze on the embankment, his eyes wide open but not knowing where to look, and his bewilderment was sympathetic. Behind him, both Alicia and Abel looked a mixture of shock and wariness.

“...... Shut up for me!" Harden, who was already at a loss, finally became angry again, Mei Zhixia rushed and slapped down again, red and black collided through the magic circle, and then scattered all over the air like a blizzard.

"Did I say something wrong? Harden Tesla, you are the one who provoked us! Zhaohua's words let me say, yes, you can scold, he wants to sell favors, I want to ask you for forgiveness? Yes and no, what is it? But you don't deserve to let him dream like this!"

"Komatsu, purify!" had to wave the silver spear to push Harden away, He Yanfang anxiously ordered.

“...... Okay!" Cedar, who finally took action, glanced at Harden uneasily, and then released his breath to approach the demon, suppressing the evil qi majestically, "Give me back, I have to listen to Zhaohua's own thoughts!"

"You also give me a little bit of current affairs, there is nothing about you here, do you think you can be a hero? If you don't want to be a victim, go home, fool!"

"Then this has nothing to do with Zhaohua!

The jade green light that was purified was brightened, and Musk chuckled in pain: "You really want to do something, right? Then I'll give you a little help, the so-called dead are different, one is Paris Shilo, the second is Teng Xueyao, and the third is ......"

"How can it ......" Cedar's momentum suddenly weakened, but Dengzhi waved the vine instead of him to block the flying fog silk, and the jade green light chips mixed with the silver snow swirled in anger and attacked, this time the demon's eyes revealed through the cracks finally gradually fell silent in the frenzy and pleasure-

The bruised bruises on his arms slowly disappeared as if they were withdrawn, and the young man, who had been paralyzed, fell down as if he had lost his soul.

"Zhaohua—"

"Don't move!" Nobue shouted sternly, and Cedar shuddered as if it was because of the unusual atmosphere or because of the obedience to her.

"Have you forgotten what happened last time, keep your distance. Although the style is indifferent as usual, Nobore's words also reflect a fact-

Between them, there has been a rift in trust.

While silently gently entanglement Zhaohua with the snake vine, Cedar also peeked at Harden hesitantly, no matter what, there will be doubts, even him.

I don't know if he felt Cedar's gaze, Harden just stiffened his feet, laughed self-deprecatingly and sighed lowly: "My friend luck ...... It's so bad......"

Again, after the madness, there is only an empty result, and there is no way to pursue it, and there is no way to vent.

But why did this happen? Why did such a terrible and naturally hostile result be triggered by an apparent act of one's own volition? Was the trap there from the beginning, or was it just a terrible accident?

But it seems that there really exists, a spider that guides the malicious web from afar. But what can they do when they are trapped in a labyrinth, even if they understand that splitting is the spider's intention.

-

Teaser: "Now...... What to do?"

"Then let me ask you, what do you want to do?"

How can we face the current situation when malice that should not be discovered is completely exposed, and it has become the trigger of chaos in such a disturbing state of affairs......

"My advice is that if you cherish them, take action to end this unpleasant time as soon as possible. You have to understand that no matter how long or short, there is a limit to how long you can be good to them, everything is a filament that connects the future, and every step you take can be the key, and since you understand that you are going wrong, change it as soon as possible. ”

A child who rushes into a predicament like a bee hurts others and hurts himself. If you don't want to be gloomy anymore, go find the path you should take.

The next part, the path of the bee back.
