Chapter 5: The First Encounter Between Fire and Blood (Part II)
How did things turn out like this?
Again, unpredictable progress. Everything that had gone before www.biquge.info had shattered most of Vina's reason, and now, the incomprehensible reality had made her mind even more confused at the end of the chaos.
How could this be progress?
Thinking has become almost impossible, and there is only a blank space left in the mind. The soft touch made her face turn red, and she felt the difficulty of breathing, and the feeling of powerlessness began to take over the woman's whole body.
"Goo......
The bloody breath in her throat made her mouth tighten even more instinctively.
โโHow so?
At this moment, what is happening in the church can be summed up in one sentence. It's not complicated, but combined with everything that happened before, it's too unbelievable. Vina couldn't have imagined that the only thing that the strange man who exuded murderous intent did to her in a time that she couldn't react to at all was not to kill the killer like her first reaction, but-
- Kissed her.
In other words, Vena, who was going to be killed without the power to resist, only reacted after the incident, and she was forcibly kissed by a strange man without any resistance.
It's the same with the lack of resistance at all.
The lip flap fit the lip flap, and his lips were undoubtedly wider, but they were also drier and rougher. Why did she have such dry lips on this damp and rainy day? The strange thought that came to her mind made her sink closer to indulgence, and the strength in her body was lost faster.
โโWhy is it getting weaker and weaker?
This is the only relatively normal question that Vina can have at this moment.
The cause of the problem is simple.
For one, Vina's rationality had collapsed long before that.
Second, kissing is a very lethal thing for women who are pregnant with spring.
Third, this is Vina's first kiss.
Fourth, and this is the most important thing, men's behavior is not as simple as "kissing".
"......!" A little spark of thought in the darkness suddenly touched the fourth point mentioned above, and the resulting thinking couldn't help but make the woman who was already about to sink into the abyss suddenly wake up. Indeed, there is nothing wrong with humans calling the act of two lips touching each other "kissing", but such an action is only a superficial phenomenon for Vina and the man at this moment.
The essence of the phenomenon is that "he is sucking on her lips", or more accurately, "he is sucking on the wound on her lips that he had bitten earlier"......
- It's blood!
The slight pain was amplified in an instant, and after the confusion of thoughts to the extreme, the man's unexpected actions made Vina once overwhelmed by chaos, and her extremely alert mind was once again revealed. The surprised expression on the surface meant that Vina had finally discovered the truth of the matter. What the ordinary-looking man did was not "kissing", but to cover up the fact that he was sucking blood from Vina's lips!
- Woo, the strength is ......
Blood is the currency of life, and knowing that a man's purpose is his own blood, then the reason why he feels strong powerlessness can be easily understood.
At the same time, Vina also immediately realized that she had fallen into a situation that was a hundred times more dangerous than "being forcibly kissed". The blood was sucked away along with the life force, and when she noticed it, her legs had begun to tremble violently, which meant that she had lost even the strength to stand, let alone push the tall man away. In addition, another terrible fact also began to emerge, originally, the large amount of fire magic elements that Vina had gathered before entering the church seemed to flow towards the man with blood and energy.
โโWhat should I do?
Now is not the time to timidly seek a solution! There is not much time left for Vina. So, for a woman who already lacks a strong physique and has lost most of her strength at this time, there is only one thing she can do, isn't it?
Her eyes were wide open, and her eyes were full of hideousness because of the countless bloodshot entanglements of mournful feelings, and Vena used the last bit of strength in her body, and suddenly, the sharp teeth of her lips turned to white with color and bit fiercely into the clinging lips.
Won't sit still, Vina's choice is exactly that-
Elements of fire that were brighter than blood erupted from the palms of their drooping hands, and the flickering elves formed a mist of fire that was ready to move.
- Vent your anger with magic!
In fact, the magic element is a very small "substance" that can only be captured by the naked eye after gathering in pieces, and for the various magical elements that make up the elemental magic, only the magic element of ice is the exception.
"Roar!" The man who did not have a painful or angry expression because of Vina's sudden attack, but because of the flow of magical elements at this moment, he roared loudly like an enraged beast, as if he sensed something, and should have foreseen the coming danger, ignoring his own lip that was bitten fiercely, and his eyes instantly turned to hostile "ordinary man" who leaned back and took the initiative to stay away from Vina's side.
The next moment, the pillar of flames rose from his previous position, and it was the fire elemental magic that Vina had unleashed using the remaining magic elements.
The magic was activated in a very short time.
It's fast, but it's not the best in terms of quality, and the color of the pillar of fire is too bright compared to the naturally generated flames, which is a manifestation of the fact that the control of the magic element has not been perfected, and it has not yet been able to exert the full power of the magic element. However, such a quick fire magic is enough to make those in it withstand the baptism of heat and scorching, and turn to ashes in the struggle.
However, for the man who has already made another backward leap and is already several meters away, this is only the level of "feeling a little more warmth in a cold and wet environment".
"Huh?"
Obviously there was no threat, but he let out a low cry of surprise in midair.
The reason for the surprise was that the woman's petite figure appeared beside him in the process of his third backward jump, her body fell sideways, her hands were aimed at the man's body, but her eyes were full of unparalleled anger and resentment.
"Suffer death!"
There was not the slightest shyness in the chaotic mind, the previous scene of "kissing" had long been forgotten, and the only thing that could be understood was that the strength quickly returned at the same time as the "kissing" stopped. Reality would not give her time to say the words "Die", so Vina had to grit her teeth in her heart. The reason for her resentment is that she has recognized this ordinary but strange young man as the murderer of all these tragedies, and the strange condition of the corpses outside can be explained by "being sucked to death". Of course, regardless of whether this is the case or not, the poignant emotion in a woman's heart must be released!
- Turn me to ashes!
Therefore, with the spitting in her heart, with the anger that fills her entire chest, with the back of her loved one who is gradually moving away in her memory, and the shining flame that connects the ground with the roof, it is her judgment and redemption. The magic pillar of fire mercilessly devoured the man's body completely.
"Boom!"
The flames dissipated Vina's anguish somewhat, but the excitement didn't last long, and later, her body hit the wall with the same mercilessness, and then fell the hard, cold ground. Suddenly, the pain spread so intensely that half of Vina's body lost consciousness.
And of course, the only thing that allowed her to escape from the first pillar of fire at a speed no less than that of a sturdy man, and then chase after the man first, was magic. This time, although the "levitation technique" is also used to drive itself to move, the magic attached to it is the limit of what Vina can control, and extreme emotions make this limit a little stronger than normal. As a result, although the speed has reached a "terrible" level, the body cannot bear such a speed if it is neglected to exercise, which brings a huge burden to the body, making it even more unbearable to absorb most of the physical strength. At the same time, without me noticing, blindly increasing the strength of the magic led to a lack of control over the magic, and finally caused the levitation to get out of control and crash directly into the wall.
"Ahem!"
The impact made the five churn and choke on the blood, the impact was quite light, and even the wall had a slight shaking because of this, fortunately there was time to adjust the angle of the body, otherwise if the head directly hit the wall at such a speed, the result was likely to be directly thrown into the arms of death. However, although she politely declined the invitation of the Grim Reaper, the severe pain and the sense of uneasiness and fear that came with the loss of consciousness in her body still eroded her, and her situation was still not optimistic.
โโIt's not going to just fall.
The pain could not be erased, but Vina still had a strong will, and as a result, Lance's death did not make her vulnerable due to the loss of her spiritual support, but made her more resilient than usual. Almost fell to the ground, holding on to half of her stiff body, Vina immediately re-supported herself with one arm, and at the same time, there was a burst of sweetness in her throat, but she could no longer suppress the blood in her mouth, and finally another mouthful of blood spurted out.
- Captain Lance...... Can I impress you when I'm strong......
In her heart, the pain subsided slightly, and the loss of half of her body consciousness gradually turned back, followed by more intense pain, but the physical pain did not make her flinch.
Then, the moment he looked up, he saw Lance's tragic and abnormal body.
- I...... We have to face up to the reality, we have to look to the future, but ...... Woo...... Captain......
Just seeing a little bit and immediately closing her eyes, the pressure of having to face such a painful reality made her once again show the weakness of women, nay, human beings. Sadness due to all kinds of cruel realities is a common weakness of human beings, but it is also an essential part of why human beings are called human beings.
Because I don't want to lose, I feel sad.
Because I don't want to be sad, I don't want to lose even more.
Therefore, in order not to let the already difficult life be plagued by loss and sadness, in the countless passage of time, human beings "have to" cherish the hope and light in life more, and finally integrate it into their own "instinct".
Grief is instinctive.
No matter what happens, it is also instinctive to keep constantly raising your head and moving forward for tomorrow.
An instinct that is enough to make humans proud.
"Goo...... Captain Lance, this is the last ......"
- The last time you saw my weak side.
Vina swore by this, but she knew how weak the oath must be at this moment. Supporting her body to sit up, her eyes closed tightly, her tears had already broken the embankment. How, how, how she wanted to cry so much. It's just that the person who can be relied on, the embrace that can cry in it no longer exists. Although the hug repeated more than a thousand times in fantasy failed to muster the courage to make it happen once in reality.
- So, be strong. Is that the case?
Vina seemed to understand.
Tears poured down like a waterfall, and the determination in my heart was already firm, but I still couldn't help but cry.
Just for a moment...... Let me be a weak child for a little longer......
She prayed to the true God.
......
The human mind is a very amazing thing, it is not completely controlled by us, many times, it does not function completely, we often suddenly forget something, and then remember it again. On the other hand, we cannot deny its power, and many times, just a small thought, a little hazy thought, is enough to change a person's decision, and through this, the situation will be turned upside down.
A flash of thought can awaken Vina from the abyss of chaos.
A thought that also brought her back to reality from a painful but peaceful illusion, but she broke out in a cold sweat.
- Magic ...... That man's magic didn't go away?
After all that had happened, Vina had already determined that the strange magic that had plagued her before was from the man who was plainly dressed and looked ordinary, and even, on closer inspection, she could almost conclude that the familiar and ominous magic was formed by the man who somehow "devoured" Captain Lance's magic.
Vina didn't know of a way to get one person to completely devour the magic of another.
In the same way, if anyone told her that someone could absorb a person's power and the magical elements he gathered by sucking blood, she would never believe it.
Common sense is meant to be broken.
"You have to leave with the captain first, at least with everyone first. โ
There was no time to consider the dialectical relationship between common sense and reality, and a simple head twist made her grin in pain. With the sound of "crackling", in the field of vision, although the two pillars of fire had lost their previous momentum, they were still burning by themselves, burning the air, and also burning the ground and roof. "Smack...... Boom!" was the sound of burning wooden beams falling, and the chapel seemed to be collapsing, and Vena looked around, but saw no other person or anything unusual.
There was still a black shadow burning in a pillar of fire, but it was so weird, why didn't there be any sound?
Such a thought made her heart chill, and did not continue to deepen the fear of speculation, Vina quickly, almost immediately, hid her cowardly expression, tears stopped, and endured both physical and mental pain, she quickly waved her hand, the process of gathering the magic elements and launching the magic was completed in the shortest possible time, the strong wind of magic turned into a sharp blade, and it didn't take much effort, just the right impact to shatter the simple window on the side of the church.
Without any more tears, the resilient woman took Lance's body in her arms, and then, choosing the most painful for her, but also the quickest, and the most likely to avoid accidents, jumped out of the shattered window.
- Magic like this is the limit if it happens again.
Casting a levitation spell again propelled her out of the enclosed space of the church as fast as she could, and the pain woke Vina awake and made her realize that no matter how strong her will was, her body could not bear it any longer.
- So, if you're not dead......
"You" refers to the man, of course, who is "too ordinary to be ordinary".
What are you kidding! If you have that ability, you can call it "ordinary"!
-- Go ahead and see my anger! A woman's anger doesn't go away so easily!
While subconsciously "complaining", Vina strengthened her determination.
- Let my flame burn you out!
