Chapter 10: Fight to the Death
"Jiang Xiao ......"
Ziyan spat out a mouthful of blood, struggled to prop up his body with his only remaining right arm, and turned his face to look at Jiang Xiao.
Dark Flame had already seen that the two people in front of him no longer had the strength to escape. Fang Cai's wild chase all the way, coupled with all his strength to break a tree trunk with one blow, and then throw it at the two of them, also consumed the physical strength he had accumulated with great difficulty. At this moment, his steps towards the two of them were also a little heavy.
"I know you can't trust me completely. But now I have no choice, I can only put all my trust on you......"
Ziyan gasped, staring at Jiang Xiao's face, while staring at the dark flame who was walking step by step with his residual vision, his tone was unprecedentedly solemn: "I will lose all my mobility later." Take advantage of that gap and run away with all your might—I mean, even if you can't take me with you, you're going to run away on your own. I don't have time to wait for your consideration and answer, remember, you only get one chance. ”
"What?" Before Jiang Xiao could fully understand the meaning of Ziyan's words, she saw that her remaining right arm and legs had begun to split. In an instant, countless poisonous bees flew up from under the straitjacket and flew towards the dark flame.
"Damn it!"
This time, there were more poisonous bees than there were in the forest before, and the dark flame roared wildly, but instead of retreating, it rushed forward.
Dark Flame thought very clearly, even if Purple Smoke could control the cells and turn them into biological bombs, the damage caused by the explosion was not exempt. And the closer the distance became, the more Ziyan would throw a rat trap, and he didn't dare to detonate all the poisonous bees.
However, before he could rush in front of Purple Smoke, the group of self-detonating bees had already flown in front of him.
Rumble!
An explosion that was even more violent than before, sounded again.
And at the same time as the poisonous bee flew out, Jiang Xiao also picked up the purple smoke on the ground, which only had his torso and head, and staggered towards the car in the distance.
This time, before the poisonous bee exploded, Dark Flame had instantly curled up into a ball, protecting all the vital points. Although there are more poisonous bees than before, the damage caused is far less than the last time it was caught off guard. He struggled to stand up, but saw that Jiang Xiao had already rushed into the car with Ziyan in his arms.
"Damn!" Darkflame gritted his teeth and lunged forward, ignoring his injuries, but the Tesla was already speeding away, silently driving into the night ahead.
Dark Flame ran wildly for dozens of meters, but watched the taillights of the car disappear from sight, and then he slammed his fist on the ground with hatred, hammering out a spiderweb-like crack.
The rabbit that was about to be in his hands suddenly put on his wings and flew away, and Dark Yan's heart was already filled with grievance and anger.
Ziyan was already seriously injured, and he had just fissioned so many body cells, and it was impossible for him to survive again. Although the recovery ability of the awakened is far superior to that of ordinary people, there is a limit after all. Dark Flame was 100% confident that Ziyan would not be able to survive another five minutes.
But the problem is that what Dark Flame wants is not Ziyan's life, but the location of a certain "seed" that she just found not long ago.
What's more, the kid who came with Ziyan, the kid who didn't fully awaken, is still alive......
"Damn...... It seems that the plan is going to be accelerated. ”
Dark Flame gasped twice, his fists clenched and relaxed, and finally turned around and disappeared into the darkness.
......
"Are you alright?"
Jiang Xiao gritted his teeth, struggled to control the steering wheel, and drove towards the city while frowning at the purple smoke in the passenger seat.
Ziyan is a beauty who can hardly find the slightest flaw, and at this moment, despite serious injuries and blood loss, her face is as pale as paper, but she is still thrillingly beautiful. But at this moment, all limbs are lost, and there are two huge wounds in front of him, which looks like a humanoid doll that has been played with, with a strange and perverted beauty.
When Jiang Xiao took advantage of the gap in the explosion to rush into the car, he could only hurriedly throw the purple smoke on the passenger seat. Now that he had temporarily escaped from Dark Flame's pursuit, he finally vacated his space, holding the steering wheel with one hand and carefully straightening Ziyan with the other.
"I'm dying......"
Purple Smoke gasped sharply, and her eyes gradually began to dim: "The recovery ability of the Awakened ...... It's not infinite, even for me who can manipulate cells...... There are also cases where it is beyond one's ability......"
"That'...... What about doctors?" Jiang Xiao frowned: "I'm not talking about ordinary doctors, I'm saying, among you awakened people, isn't there that kind of person who can heal his injuries?"
"Yes...... But it's too late...... Probably only ...... left Five minutes or so......" Ziyan shook his head with difficulty: "Listen...... Now don't think about saving my life anymore, what I'm going to leave to you is more important. ”
Jiang Xiao turned his head, glanced at Ziyan, sighed, and nodded lightly: "Say it." ”
Inexplicably, he was targeted by the organization of Ziyan and the Academy, and was inexplicably involved in the infighting between the Academies, and almost died inexplicably. If time can be turned back, then Jiang Xiao hopes that from the beginning, he will not have anything to do with the woman next to him.
But it's a pity that time can't be turned back after all, and life can't be turned back after all.
Even if she and Ziyan meet tonight, they will only meet twice, and of course they can't talk about any feelings. But even so, watching a person die in front of him was not something that could make Jiang Xiao indifferent after all.
And—after all, Ziyan had just saved his life before!
"Listen, this thing is ...... And not just for me...... You need to know...... Darkflame has set his sights on you, and with his position in the Academy...... Want to find out who you are...... It's just a very simple thing......" Ziyan's gasping became more and more intense, and his voice gradually became vague. Jiang Xiao nodded, looked around, and then controlled the car to stop in an alley. At this time, it was already far away from Bitan Mountain, and for a while, it was impossible for Dark Flame to catch up.
"So...... Even if it's just to survive...... You have to take this from me out as well...... And...... If you can't do it, or let Darkflame know...... Maybe the whole world ...... will all be destroyed......" A big mouthful of blood poured out of Ziyan's lips again, Jiang Xiao parked the car, and hurriedly turned sideways to help Ziyan's body up, and when he looked down, he saw the two terrible wounds on her body, and a sadness floated in his heart. And when he heard Ziyan say that the world would be destroyed, Jiang Xiao frowned violently: "Destruction?"
"I ...... No kidding. At this time...... How could I be joking with you......" Ziyan laughed miserably: "Don't ask more...... I'm running out of time...... Hear me out......"
"Hmm. Jiang Xiao nodded and looked at Ziyan's eyes: "Say it, I promise you, I will bring the words." ”
"Thank you......" Ziyan took a deep breath: "You...... After confirming that he was safe, he called a man named Zheyu and told him that the location of the seed existed on Hanzhong Road...... Prosperity Middle School...... ...... in computer rooms ...... in the computer number 15 Remember...... It's a computer...... Village...... Let him take it out...... And then...... Decide for yourself whether or not to leave it to the dean...... His phone number is...... 18XXXXXXXXX......”
"Yes, I remember. Tell Zhen Yu to go to the computer room of Prosperity Middle School on Hanzhong Road, find the location of the seeds from the No. 15 computer, and then judge for yourself whether to hand it over to the dean. His phone number is 18XXXXXXXXX. Jiang Xiao's face was solemn, and he repeated Ziyan's words in a deep voice: "It's not wrong, right?"
"Right...... But there are still ......" The blood in Ziyan's mouth flowed more and more, flowing down the slender neck, staining the co-pilot's seat bright red: "Also...... Don't trust ochre completely...... Since Darkflame will betray ...... Ochre ...... It is also possible ...... If he has a different heart...... You're ...... You're ......"
When Ziyan said this, his face suddenly distorted, and he paused, and then showed a miserable smile: "If he also has a different heart...... Then you can just ...... Just resign yourself to your fate...... The Academy's ...... I couldn't find it again...... Can't find another person you can trust......"
"Accept fate, what does it mean to accept fate!" Jiang Xiao frowned tightly: "If the world destruction you said is true, wouldn't it be possible for me to watch it?"
"I'm afraid...... I can only watch it......" Ziyan's miserable laughter became thicker and thicker: "If that really happens...... No matter who it is, there is no way to stop it...... But in that case...... To you...... It's not necessarily a bad thing......"
"You...... Let's make things clear!How to destroy!Why isn't it necessarily bad for me!Purple smoke!"
Jiang Xiao stretched out his hand and squeezed Ziyan's shoulder hard, but saw that her eyes gradually turned white, and she no longer had the strength to answer her question.
Jiang Xiao...... Thank you ......."
Ziyan muttered the last sentence, and her throat suddenly spasmed, and then the whole person softened.
Jiang Xiao looked at her silently for a long time, and only after a long time did he easily let go, put down Ziyan's lifeless body, and then rubbed his face vigorously with both hands, trying his best to make his chaotic thoughts as clear as possible.
What has happened in the past three days, especially tonight, is too much and too complicated.
Jiang Xiao, who originally just wanted to live a relaxed, comfortable and free life, was inexplicably involved in such a treacherous incident. And...... It even involves the whole ...... World?
World?
Jiang Xiao's logical ability has always been far beyond ordinary people, but this time, the amount of information he got at hand was too small and too scattered. He spun his brain as fast as he could, trying to put all the clues together in a single line.
First of all, the organization of the academy is much bigger and more complicated than Jiang Xiao originally thought. And it seems that the academy is also divided into different factions, and there are interests and even conceptual disputes between them.
The "seed position" that Ziyan had at hand was still only in her hands. And apparently, the importance of that thing was so high that it was not even handed over to the dean or anyone else in the academy at once, but was hidden in the computer classroom of that middle school. If it weren't for Ziyan's death tonight, she would never have given Jiang Xiao the map to which such an important thing belonged to and passed it to the colleague named Zheyu.
And the man named Ochre ...... Judging from Ziyan's tone, it doesn't seem to necessarily be an object worth entrusting. If it weren't for that, she wouldn't hesitate to add at the last moment, asking Jiang Xiao not to trust him completely.
Moreover, there are still too many things that Ziyan has not told Jiang Xiao about the group of awakened people. What did the rank she had said represented? What did the rank and innate ability mean, what other ranks besides warrior and craftsman? and-
Jiang Xiao himself, what rank is he?
In addition to the vast organization of the Academy, what other awakened people with Neanderthal blood are not affiliated with the Academy, and if so, are they scattered and living separately like Lao Hua, or do they also have other organizations?
Too many questions kept swirling in Jiang Xiao's mind, but he couldn't get a clear answer.
