Chapter 58: The Full Moon I
Late at night, the Institute.
Lin Qiu, who was lying on the bed, moved his fingers.
"You're awake, little brother. Ramov stood in front of the window, and on the eaves was a bag of toast, and he put one of the pieces into his mouth, crunching into it.
The feeling of severe pain and exhaustion swept through Lin Qiu's body, and he felt that his whole person was like an empty shell now.
This is already a very quick recovery, after the baptism of the holy pool, the external injuries on his body are very good, but the backlash caused by the power of Fuyue is not so easy to recover. So to sum up, Ramov took out a piece of bread from the bag and threw it to Lin Qiu without looking back: "You kid really picked up a life." I admit that combining Ukigaku's senses is a good idea, but if you don't get it right, you may be eaten by the power. ”
After being slashed by Grayla, Lin Qiu's consciousness was in a state of chaos, and his later memories were intermittent, and he himself couldn't figure out which ones were real and which ones were dreams.
However, he remembered hearing Ramov's words before he completely lost consciousness. "I'll leave the rest to Alyssa. That's what he said at the time.
"Where's Alyssa?" Lin Qiu sat up directly, only to find that his shirt had been soaked with sweat for some time.
"She just left, so she should have gone to understand this grievance...... Hey, little brother, where are you going? It's better for the seriously injured not to run around!"
Lin Qiu suddenly didn't know where he got the strength, he turned over and got out of bed, picked up the deep sea on the bedside table, and used it as a crutch. He pushed open the door to the room, and it was pitch black, the researchers had long since left work, and there was no movement in the room of Jane and Susan, the famous night owls.
Although Ramov said this, he had no intention of stopping Lin Qiu at all, and he let Lin Qiu stagger out of the room alone. Then his hand reached for the bag of bread and took out a piece of toasted bread.
"What a rare full moon. ”
Ramov looked up at the night sky and sighed.
......
What a rare full moon.
On the outskirts of the imperial capital, Greila lay alone on the grass, calmly looking up at the starry sky.
She couldn't remember how many years she had been away from the imperial capital.
This is the place she is most familiar with, and after so many years, not a single grass or tree has changed. The lake in front of the lawn is still crystal clear, and the cool breeze that blows from time to time is refreshing.
When she was distracted, a familiar voice seemed to echo in her ears.
"What? The Inquisitor rejected your application again? I said, what the hell are those guys eating, do you want to let go of such a good seedling?"
Andrew's face was red from drinking, and he was lying on the lawn and yelling. Andrew was not a good drinker and a poor drinker, and after each dinner, his colleagues in the Inquisition Army turned away from him.
Although he was full of complaints, Andrew was helpless.
He was just an ordinary member of the Inquisition, and he was a low-minded member of the church, and even if he recommended his disciples to the upper echelons, it would not make much difference.
"Sure enough, according to my current swordsmanship, joining the Inquisition is still too reluctant. ”
"Don't be discouraged, you're strong now, and you'll be able to ...... soon"
"Mr. Andrew. ”
Greila suddenly interrupted Andrew's words: "You will have more powerful sword skills." ”
Andrew was silent for a moment, then nodded.
"Teach me. ”
"But......" Andrew held out his hand and put it in front of Grela's eyes.
"You...... You suddenly ...... What for?" asked Grela, who was not used to the sudden darkness for a moment, shrinking back nervously and uneasily. Andrew laughed at her actions, he removed his hand and looked at the full moon in the night sky again: "But after learning this kind of sword, many things can no longer be seen." ”
Grayla. Even so, do you want to learn?
She looked at Andrew for a moment and nodded ignorantly.
Grela, it seems that you really like swordsmanship.
"Once you learn it, you'll be able to fight alongside Mr. Andrew, right?" said Grayla, looking down.
The evening breeze blows.
Andrew didn't respond to her, and his slight snoring came from the other side.
......
The same moonlight as it was at the beginning, a similar evening breeze.
The sound of footsteps from near and far pulled her back to reality, and the hand she held on the sword moved, and the next moment, the soil around her crumbled down, and the thick trees were twisted into pieces. The sword momentum of the two shook the lake into a splash that soared into the sky.
Greila was convinced that Alyssa would come here, and she welcomed them in her own way. She jumped to her feet and swayed, and the two swords at her waist were unsheathed at the same time.
Pity.
Such moonlight has never been seen since then.
There was only a dark flame reflected in her eyes, and when Greila closed her eyes, she no longer saw the scene of training with Andrew every night, but the swarming of the Byron Imperial Iron Horsemen, the blood that flew out, the sound of severing limbs, and the screams of the Iron Horsemen, but no matter how many times she swung her sword, there were endless knights swarming up.
As soon as she closed her eyes, everything she could perceive was an enemy.
At the end of the bones, a man in a black robe stood beneath the blood-colored moon, reaching out to her in an inviting gesture.
"Come on, I need your hatred. ”
The man wears a skull mask, and beneath the mask is a terrifying green flame.
......
Lin Qiu limped away, and the research institute was far away from the outskirts of the city. Phoenix said that Alyssa went to the outskirts of the city alone. Eige said before that he had an ominous premonition.
If you can catch up, you will definitely be able to catch up!
He tried not to let himself think about anything, for fear that distractions would slow him down. There are still no pedestrians on the street, the people of the imperial capital have always been pragmatists, he does not like to admire the moon, they only know that the imperial capital has been turbulent recently, so they must close the door of the house tightly and block all disasters from the door.
Lin Qiu didn't know how long he had been shuttling through the alleys, and when he arrived at the outskirts of the city, the well-manicured lakeside path had long been unrecognizable, and most of the woods not far away were destroyed, and Alyssa was standing by the lake, looking up at the full moon in the sky. She leaned slightly to the side, her right hand clenched on the hilt of her sword.
She wasn't looking up at the full moon.
Lin Qiu followed her line of sight, and the first thing she saw was two silver rays, Greira's eyes were closed, and the blade of the sword looked extremely cold against the background of the moonlight. In just a moment, Lin Qiu clearly saw that the full moon had turned blood red, and Greela and Alyssa's feet were no longer a lawn by the lake, but a battlefield full of bones.
The blackbirds hovering in the night sky let out a terrible hiss.
Time seems to freeze in this moment.
Go home, Grela.
With the evening breeze, something came to her ears. She couldn't tell who this sentence came from for a while.
Alyssa stared at Grela, who was getting closer, as if she had seen an illusion of the past.
- "Please, Alyssa! Only you can bring that girl back!"
This was Andrew's only and final request to her.
The next moment, the two of them drew their swords almost at the same time.
"Bump—" js3v3
