Chapter 114: The Choice to Forget Death
The firmament's fears are not unfounded. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info the tragic situation when Ganghiko was struck by lightning, but she clearly recorded it in her eyes. That level of lethality is a threat big enough for any Nord. Hiko has already been born once, and if he suffers a second time, he may fall into the most dangerous situation.
However, the reality is that her worries are obviously unnecessary, because since Hiko will do this, then he is naturally certain with certainty. And the reason why he had the confidence to do so was entirely because of the little bit of holy light that had just been derived from his body. Although this light is so thin that it cannot even be expressed in an outward form, it is still enough to store it in the body as a protective and buffering force.
Therefore, although this lightning bolt was extremely violent and powerful, at most it only caused a conspicuous scorch mark on Hiko's back. He was only slightly worse than his original injuries, and the dome he was protecting under him was much more minor.
However, although the situation of both of them has gone in the best direction. But the current situation is still very bad for them. Because the two of them were so heavy that they had almost completely lost the strength to fight. And the monster still has three points of strength.
These three points of strength are enough to take their lives. Of course, the monster who was injured by the blood of the magic sword and revenge must also be unable to escape the fate. So the final outcome must be a doomed end.
Such an ending is something Hiko absolutely does not want to see. He finally won a new life in this world, and finally made his life wonderful. So how could he be willing to die with a monster at this time? Not only him, but even the Dome didn't want to put a stop to his life here.
She began to struggle desperately to stand up, but her body, which was already a little weak due to broken arms and bleeding from internal organs, became more and more weak under the stimulation of the strong electric current. And dragging such a weak body, let alone standing up, even struggling hard is a huge problem.
It's completely impossible to rely on her to turn the tables or something, so at this time, Yan can only rely on himself.
At this moment, he could only stare at the monster that was constantly heaving his chest and seemed to be wheezing, while quietly regaining strength in his body.
Whether it was the Holy Light Qi or the breathing method of the Big Dipper Divine Fist, as long as it worked, he tried it as much as he could. However, no matter which one you choose, the effect you can have at this time is very limited. Now he is simply a scoop full of holes, even if the water full of rivers is placed in front of him, he can only be completely powerless.
The muscles and bones are sore, the muscles are tired, and the internal organs are even more scorching pains, and the slightest exertion is a subtle and long feeling of exhaustion. It's as if Hiko suddenly broke out in the inhuman situation that had been tormented by illness in his previous life. Almost nothing can be done except trembling and moaning.
Hiko couldn't moan anymore, but the trembling in his body couldn't be stopped. At this time, if he gives up and puts his body into extreme relaxation, then maybe the situation will be better. But his stubborn and stubborn nature made it impossible for him to give up all resistance at this critical time just to find a little bit of lightheartedness. So he was constantly driving his body to make it work again at this critical time.
Of course, this is useless work. After all, he is not a flawless transcendent warrior who has already polished his body. Therefore, it is impossible for him to perfectly control every part of his body and keep it 100% functioning at all times. The current situation is that he can only struggle with his might. And when the monsters on the opposite side slow down any longer, they will immediately be able to give them the final killer.
This is a situation where it is almost impossible to have any possibility of turning the tables, but at this time, an unexpected figure appeared in Hiko's field of vision.
It was a thin, somewhat staggering figure, tiptoeing behind the monster. Although she didn't move quickly and stumbled a little, she always managed to avoid the monster's gaze well, allowing herself to move closer to her target in a near-stealthy way.
It was Kolori, the halfling girl they knew, the one who warned them in the first place. They thought that Kolori had already met with misfortune, because the rain of arrows in the beginning had apparently included her. But now it seems that the situation is not as bad as they thought.
Still, it's not much better. Because they can almost see with the naked eye, the two arrows that are extremely deep in Kolori's back. She is a halfling, and she is naturally petite and fragile than normal people. Such an injury is already fatal enough for her. It can be said that she is lucky to survive in this situation, let alone carry out such a sneaky operation like now.
So, Hiko and Dome didn't understand what this halfling girl was doing at all. However, when they saw the girl getting closer and closer to the bloody revenge of the magic sword that had been thrown away by the monster, and as soon as she grasped the hilt of the sword, she carefully dragged it towards the monster, and they immediately understood Kolori's thoughts.
The thought took them by surprise, and her actions made them feel like they were on fire. Almost subconsciously, Dome wanted to open his mouth to stop Kolori's behavior. But before she could speak, Hiko had already gagged her mouth with one hand, making her swallow all the words back into her stomach.
This made her anxious and resentful, so she didn't care about the hand on her lips at all, and just bit it down. She pressed so hard that her sharp fangs almost immediately bit into Hiko's palm and dug deep into his muscles. In this regard, Hiko just frowned, and whispered to her.
"Don't be stupid, you're just going to kill her. You look at her, or talk to her, you can get the monster's attention to her. She's not in a good condition right now, and if that monster finds out, she'll be dead!
Of course, Dome didn't want to kill her, but she also knew that if she was allowed to act like this, the final result would probably not be optimistic. After all, it was a monster that even they couldn't deal with, and the aftermath of such a monster, even if it was only the end of a strong crossbow, was definitely not something that a halfling thief could bear.
Dome was in a hurry, for fear that there would be any accidents on Kolori. And at this time, she couldn't care about the injury on her hand, and almost desperately moved Yan's palm away, then looked into his eyes, and said to him in fear.
"Think of a way, you can think of a way. If she goes on like this, she's going to die. We can't let her die in vain to save us. ”
That being said, the truth is indeed the same. But it is almost impossible to actually implement it. They couldn't do anything other than crawl on the ground in their current situation. And to rely on this way to save a halfling who is already weak from the monster's hands is even more delusional.
So, although both of them were as anxious and restless as a flame stirring in their hearts, all they could do now was watch.
Kolori herself knows this. And she didn't think about it, asking them to save herself.
She came to save them, not to be saved by them. And from beginning to end, when she decided to do so, she didn't even think that she would be able to return alive and sound.
As a small thief, Kolori experienced a tragic life that many people have never experienced. Poverty, hunger, these are just a small thing. The most important thing is the eyes of others! She has not felt respected for a long time in the big cities where human beings are often mingled. But almost everyone who knew that she was a thief was looking at her with a strange, disdainful expression, like looking at a leech in the gutter.
This expression was a kind of torture for Kolori, but when it became long and frequent, it was not really any torture. Because in a way, she is already numb.
She was numb to this kind of contemptuous look that everyone had, and to the movement of everyone who knew her to cover their money bags the first time they saw her. He was numbed by the ridicule of those adventurers, the high-minded expressions of those big men when they gave away leftovers.
At this time, she was no longer a fledgling, she had just left the small place of the Charles, and she had great ambitions and wanted to become a legend among the thieves. At this time, she was just a little thief who had been constantly polished by the cruel reality to the point that she had lost all her edges and corners, had accepted her fate, and was accustomed to this kind of life.
It can be said that at this time, she herself no longer thinks she has any dignity at all. But in a tavern in the wilderness of the far north, she got the feeling of being respected that she had long forgotten.
Just like a traveler whose heart and lungs have been nourished by the spring water no longer want to think about the drought of the desert. After regaining this feeling of respect, Kolori is reluctant to return to that harsh reality.
Death for a confidant!, the only thing she could give in return at the moment to the two Nord boys who had given her everything she wanted most. She was no longer willing to turn back, but at this moment, she chose such a path without hesitation.
Death is not terrible. It's terrible to be alive without dignity. And for the sake of this only dignity, she would rather live to die!
