Chapter Seventy-Two: The Ice Queen
The person who came was a petite woman with a beautiful face.
Snow-white long hair, sea-blue pupils, white clothes fluttering and holy and flawless, and white skin without a trace of dust.
"Xiaoxue?"
Even though Xiaoxue has changed a lot at this moment, Liao Xiaoliu still recognized her at a glance.
There is no other reason, in that picture, Xiaoxue's appearance is exactly like this.
Looking at Xiaoxue, who had grown taller and matured in front of him, Liao Xiaoliu wanted to step forward. However, the Avenger on the side reached out to stop him at this time.
"Don't go up! She's not the Xiaoxue you know anymore. ”
The Avenger's voice was cold, but it sounded the alarm in Liao Xiaoliu's heart. Looking at the light snow in front of him, his heart also calmed down instantly.
However, at this moment, Xiao Xue, who was being stared at by the two, suddenly showed a sad expression on her face, and said, "Little Sixth Brother, didn't you say that you wanted to protect Xiao Xue?"
Hearing this, Liao Xiaoliu's heart was shocked, and listening to the familiar tone, he unconsciously took a step forward.
"Damn, don't go up. Hearing Xiaoxue's words and seeing Liao Xiaoliu's movements again, the avenger's expression changed for the first time, and he took a step angrily, blocking Liao Xiaoliu's way again.
"What are you doing? She's Xiaoxue, didn't you hear what she said?"
Repeatedly blocked by the Avenger, Liao Xiaoliu was bored and wanted to push his hand away, but the Avenger's voice became serious at this time.
"Can't you see what kind of terrible opponent we're up against right now, a monster that has devoured its host's memories and mastered language in less than half an hour. If you still want to die, I won't stop you again. ”
With that, the Avenger withdrew his outstretched hand, with no intention of continuing to stop it.
"Damn!" Kicking away a piece of gravel wrapped in snow beside him, Liao Xiaoliu snorted unwillingly, but finally stopped his steps.
Taking a deep breath, Liao Xiaoliu calmed down for the time being, looked at the avenger beside him, and asked as if pleading, "Xiaoxue...... Is it still possible to recover?"
In response to Liao Xiaoliu's question, the avenger thought for a while and sighed, "Theoretically, as long as the monster is expelled from the body before the host consciousness is completely devoured, it is possible to recover ......."
Hearing the Avenger's answer, Liao Xiaoliu's originally gloomy eyes rekindled hope, but the Avenger's next words knocked this layer of hope into the abyss.
"However, there is no way to expel the monsters, and all those who have signed a contract with the monsters have either been killed or are still hiding in the dark corners of the world. ”
The avenger explained to Liao Xiaoliu that the sickle in his hand had already turned the head of the gun and aimed at Xiaoxue not far away. Seeing that Xiaoxue was unmoved, he immediately shouted, "Monster, don't pretend, report my name." ”
Seeing that her disguise was seen through by the Avengers, Xiao Xue's face did not show any surprise, on the contrary, she actually sneered and mocked, "Weak human, how can you know the name of this future." ”
"Queen? It turned out to be a monster of the rear level. ”
After Liao Xiaoliu saw the avenger say this, his brows furrowed obviously, and he seemed to be shocked by this so-called rear.
"Hinder? What does that mean. The so-called ignorant are fearless, Liao Xiaoliu can't understand the avenger's distress at this moment, so he can only wait for his explanation on the sidelines.
In response to Liao Xiaoliu's question, the avenger glanced at Xiaoxue, who was standing in place and did not move a step. Seeing her indifferent to the communication between the two, the Avenger smiled bitterly and said, "The difference between a monster and a deed is not just in the autonomous consciousness. Compared with the deed, the monster also has a high and low danger level, and different monsters can be divided into different levels according to their strength. ”
"Soldiers, horses, chariots, elephants, queens, and kings, there are six ranks. Do you remember the Minotaur last time? It was the Minotaur, and now standing in front of us is a real post-level. ”
After listening to the Avenger's introduction, Liao Xiaoliu finally understood why he was so nervous.
Thinking of the minotaur that Lao Wang turned into at the beginning, he tried his best at that time, but he only had a draw, but he didn't expect it to be just the lowest soldier-level monster.
Liao Xiaoliu, who knew everything, his heartbeat suddenly accelerated, obviously he was just facing the Xiaoxue he was familiar with, but he couldn't be as calm as he was just now.
The icy chill and fear spread all over his body, and even a simple glance with Xiaoxue was impossible for him to do at this moment. Turning around and running away was the only thing he wanted to do now.
As if seeing Liao Xiaoliu's state, the avenger sighed again, blocked his sturdy back in front of Liao Xiaoliu, and said softly, "I'll stop her later, you can escape!" Call Ning Xuanting and tell him about the situation here. ”
"I ......" Liao Xiaoliu wanted to say something, but the coldness that filled his heart made him speechless.
"Damn, damn it. Liao Xiaoliu, are you such a person? You said a lot of things, but now you want to escape. You're running away, what should Xiaoxue do? Are all those promises bullshit?"
With his head down, he kept questioning himself in his heart, and Liao Xiaoliu only felt that the fear in his heart was driven aside by a wave of anger. And this anger that dispels fear comes from his hatred for himself.
"I ...... Don't run away. Gritting his teeth and spitting out the last two words, Liao Xiaoliu raised his head again, looking directly at Xiaoxue's sapphire-like eyes, the previous pressure disappeared, and he felt a burst of relief on his body.
The Avenger looked at the changes that had taken place in Liao Xiaoliu's body at that moment just now, and couldn't help but praise in his heart, "This kid has grown up again." ”
"Bang! bang!"
The sudden applause interrupted the Avenger's train of thought, and when he looked back, he saw Xiaoxue clasping her hands together with a sneer on her face.
"Little Sixth Brother, you are qualified to know the name of Benhou...... The word "ice" is one after this, and you can call it the queen of ice. ”
Listening to the ice queen first talking to herself in Xiaoxue's tone, and then changing back to her arrogant and cold tone, Liao Xiaoliu was so angry that even his body was constantly twitching.
The five fingers were clenched into fists, Liao Xiaoliu forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, and the cold static of the double realm unfolded again.
At the same time, the avenger brandished his scythe and stepped out in one step, and his speed increased to the limit, which was actually a few points faster than when he fought Liao Xiaoliu before.
The Avenger and Liao Xiaoliu, both of them have different ideas and consciousnesses, but in this case, the two tacitly chose to join forces against the enemy to prevent the ice queen from further harming Changhai City.
