"Three years ago, I found the last of the seven poisons - Silver Frost. The toxin comes from Nirgani, which has heavy snow that lasts all year round, and a tree that can only grow in the snow. The tree itself is non-toxic, but when the cold condenses into frost on the leaves, frost becomes the deadliest toxin. This toxin silently kills any creature that comes near the trees, and uses their carcasses to provide nutrients to the trees. Teresa said softly, "What Noah wanted to find most was this poison back then, but unfortunately he couldn't do it." Because the trees are so rare, so rare that they don't even have names. ”

"But you found it?" Bai Yiquan's voice trembled a little, "You also injected the toxin into Quintina's body?"

Teresa nodded.

"You're really damned!" Bai Yiquan gritted his teeth, "Then what's going on with you? You still injected toxins into your body?"

"Yes. As I told you earlier, it's called green stamen, and it's one of the seven poisons. ”

"Why?"

"As you said. Teresa said calmly, "Because I deserve to die." ”

Bai Yiquan was suffocated, not knowing how to answer.

Teresa turned her head and stared at the thunderstorm outside the house: "Before that, five excellent girls had already died because of this. I injected toxin into their bodies to trick the Demon King into eating them with poison all over their bodies. ”

Bai Yiquan was enraged by her calm words, and asked, "Are you so comfortable doing this kind of thing?"

"But if I don't, more people will die. Teresa looked at Bai Yiquan again, "After I implemented this plan, the Great Demon King never attacked the coast again. Because its body has been eroded by toxins, it has to spend more time recuperating and more time sleeping at the bottom of the sea. ”

"No excuse can hide your evil deeds. ”

"Yes, so I prepared myself for the ending ten years ago. Teresa said calmly, "After the Great Demon King has ingested the six toxins, I will be devoured by it as the last toxin." Let the toxins in it gather in the body of the Great Demon King at the same time, so as to kill it, and today, is the day of my punishment. ”

Bai Yiquan was dumbfounded.

You can't talk about morality with a criminal who sees death as home, any more than you can talk about faith with a fanatical religious person. Teresa had prepared a coffin for herself ten years ago, just to be able to fulfill the wish of her beloved on the day she died.

What can he say?

With his experience, with his knowledge, he was like a child without clothes in front of Teresa. He was full of justice, all morality, which was what the powerful country in the world in which he lived brought him. But it doesn't work in this world, in Nil Gani, no one can deal with Jermungard except Teresa, but Teresa's methods are extremely cruel, both to herself and to the dead girls.

"Let's go, kid. Teresa said lightly, "This is my funeral, you don't need to accompany me." ”

Bai Yiquan wanted to say something, but he couldn't say anything, he felt that his throat was hoarse and uncomfortable, as if he was blocked by something. Slowly, he lowered his gun, the muzzle of the gun sank into the stagnant water, and he looked at the decadent boy reflected on the water.

What should he do?

He felt something on his shoulder, preventing him from lifting his gun. He can save Quintina, but he can't save the world. Because he had no way to kill Jörmungandr, in that case, he had to make way for those who could kill Jörmungandr.

This is called giving up a small family for everyone. No matter where he is placed, no one will condemn him.

However, his legs seemed to be filled with lead, and he could not take a step no matter what.

Teresa looked at him quietly, as if waiting for his decision. Quintina was still lying on the table, her eyes gently closed, like a fairy tale Sleeping Beauty. Bai Yiquan looked at Quintina's side face and suddenly remembered a movie he had watched many years ago.

It was "Spy Maze" starring Jackie Chan. He still remembers one of the scenes that impressed him the most, in the church, Jackie Chan asked his godfather: "There is a girl waiting for me to save her, but if I save her, many people will die because of it." What should I do?"

The godfather replied, "Then you go and save her, and then it will be God's business." ”

Bai Yiquan never believed in God. But he knew that if he left, he might regret it for the rest of his life. He raised his gun again, and pointed it at Teresa's head.

"I'm sorry. I still can't convince myself. Bai Yiquan said, "If a world needs the constant sacrifice of girls to maintain, then there is probably no need for this world to exist." ”

Teresa was a little surprised, she obviously didn't expect Bai Yiquan to still insist on her decision after hearing her reasons. It's just that her surprise quickly turned into a sigh: "The way you look now reminds me of Noah, you are a kind person like him." So I didn't want you to die here, but now, I can't help it. ”

Before Bai Yiquan understood what Teresa meant, the roof of the main hall was suddenly lifted! Bai Yiquan raised his head and saw a pair of pale golden vertical pupils, like two bright moons.

He subconsciously raised his gun, pulled the trigger one after another, and fired all the remaining bullets in a few seconds. But I don't know if I hit it or not, in the darkness, Jörmungard's body seemed to merge with the night. Then, it let out a piercing roar, and Bai Yiquan covered his ears tightly, watching the walls of the main hall crack one after another.

The next second, he saw a green fiery serpent rise from the ground and pounce on Jörmungad.

"Hurry up. Teresa's voice came again, "This is your last chance." ”

The green fiery serpent extinguished before it could touch Jörmungard's body. After all, Jörmungandr is the child of the fire god Loki, a god with the power of a sub-god! Far from being something that ordinary fire gods can deal with, here, it is the supreme of fire!

It's just that Teresa's attack also made Jörmungad notice her, and temporarily diverted her attention from Bai Yiquan's body. As Teresa said, now is his last chance to escape. He glanced at Jörmungandr, then at Quintina, gritted his teeth, and gripped the wrist of his right hand tightly with his left hand.

The white arc of lightning was tearing through the darkness in an instant, like the brightest light.

"Jörmungad!" Bai shouted at Jörmungad, "What's the point of bullying women and old people?
