Volume 5 Final Chapter The dawn here is silent
The pale cyan sky was studded with a few remnant stars, and the earth was hazy, rapidly fading the light veil of silver-gray. The glow seemed to be soaked in blood, showing a faint red, and the morning star was like a lonely eye, persistently refusing to disappear, as if it wanted to spread this epic and magnificent scene to a distant, distant sky......
The cold wind of dawn blew through the ice field, setting up a crystal snow mist, and the ragged Geneviv carried Yare and Luna on his back, staggering through the snow mist, and the hot air he exhaled dissolved in the cold air, and soon turned into fine ice crystals, which were sprinkled high into the sky.
The blue-haired knight breathed rapidly, and every breath he breathed gave him the illusion that his vitality was being drained away with the heat. The wound on his back had been frozen by the snow and ice, and he was left with only numbness, and he didn't feel pain at all.
Vitality, little by little, is lost from the body......
Geneviv's vision blurred, the snow field in front of him began to rise and fall like waves, and his limbs were no longer under his control, as if they were moving forward as if by inertia.
Soon after, he tripped over a rock jutting out of the ground and never had the strength to stand up again.
It's ironic that three of the best Scourge Knights actually fell on a rock.
“...... Ahem, ahem!"
Luya, who was unconscious, touched her head to the ground, woke up the moment she was hit, coughed up a few blood clots from her lungs, and struggled to support her upper body, but found that her originally light body was as heavy as a mountain, and she worked hard for a long time, but she didn't move at all.
"Where is this?"
Awakened by her muffled voice, the half-dead Yalei opened his eyes, his pupils dilated to the sky, and he took a soft breath of air, his voice faintly as if in a dream.
"I don't know...... Somewhere in the ice field. ”
Genevieve opened his chapped lips and gasped for air, his chest rising and falling violently, his limbs subconsciously spasmodic and twitching.
"It's cold...... Want to drink...... Hot strong tea ......"
The black-haired knight stared at a white cloud in the sky, the more he looked at it, the more it looked like a teapot, he had never craved a hot cup of tea in his life like he did now, no, just take a sip.
"Yes...... ...... leaking out of the chest"
Luya put half of her pretty face on the rock, just in time to see the blackened hollow in his chest, and her heart moved inexplicably, and she pressed her slender palm with difficulty, as if trying to plug the wound.
"Thank you, much better. ”
Yalei suddenly felt a lot warmer in his chest, at least there was no cool breeze swishing around.
"Sorry...... I couldn't stand up. ”
Genevieve found that his body was completely out of control, either from a fall that hurt his spine or from exhaustion after an extreme overdraw.
"It's okay, we're all going to die anyway. ”
Luya silently closed her eyes, feeling the warmth draining from her body bit by bit, and suddenly let out a long breath of heat, and her thin lips gradually grinned into a self-deprecating smile:
"If I had known this, I might as well have died in an explosion. ”
"Everybody's dead......"
Yalei watched the teapot-shaped white clouds being blown away by the cold wind, and gradually closed his eyes, his powerful heart still provided him with vitality, but it couldn't prevent death from coming.
"It's rare to die together...... We're friends, aren't we?" asked Geneviev, glancing at them out of the corner of his eye, licking his chapped lips.
"Otherwise, is it possible...... Are we going to keep fighting?" said Lua, her eyes closed and her voice weak.
"Hmm. Areley echoed and snorted.
......
As time passed, the three of them, whose limbs were entangled, finally fell into a long silence, quietly waiting for death to come.
...... Treading ...... Treading ......
I don't know how long later, in the middle of the dying, Genevieve seemed to hear footsteps from far and near, and soon, a hot stream of hot energy suddenly seeped into his body, and at the same time, a majestic voice sounded in his ears:
"Save them at all costs, save the eagles of the empire!" (To be continued......)
