Chapter Forty-Nine: The Scarred Girls
The room where the altar was located was a bleak scene. Due to the blessing of the divine powers, the room was not structurally damaged, but both the floor and the roof of the temple were covered with large scorched black, and the scorched black was sometimes covered with obvious unmelted frost. The altar in the center of the ground is intact, but dark red blood can be seen everywhere on the altar, and it is unknown whose blood it is. Necromancer Zero lay in the middle of the altar with his limbs twisted, his eyes wide, staring at the roof in distraction, blood spilling from the blood hole in his chest, completely losing signs of life, the bone battle that had been held in his hand had been broken into three pieces, the skull at the top flew to some corner, and the brilliance of magic on the white bone in the middle also dissipated, falling to the side of Zero's corpse.
And the victorious side looks just as miserable. The newly replaced irises shield in Catherine's hand was broken and twisted, as broken as a piece of crumpled waste paper, and the shield still had a burnt smell, and the same newly replaced one-handed sword did not escape its fate, breaking into seven or eight knots scattered everywhere, and it was difficult to guess its original shape without looking carefully. Half of her sturdy scale armor had fallen off, and the scales were scattered all over the ground like real fish scales, revealing the petticoat that fit beneath the scales. Her left hand was scorched black, the charred skin was cracked, revealing the bright red flesh underneath, and the aroma of roasted meat could be smelled when she got close, while her right foot was frozen to a blue and white, and the necrotic skin still exuded a burst of cold, which I was afraid would shatter into pieces if I touched her right foot hard. On her face, from the center of her eyebrows to her chin, three paw prints were deeply imprinted on her face, and the rolled flesh made her look indescribably hideous. But none of these are the most special, the most special is her hair. The shorter part of her medium-length black hair stood upright against the rules of physics, making her head look like a giant sea urchin.
Lina was in a slightly better condition, except that her white priest's robe had turned gray. The long silver hair was scorched several pieces, half of the right ear was torn off, the left hand hung limply, the arm was twisted into a strange curve in several sections, and the lower leg of the right leg turned from a beautiful curve that was round and elastic to a flat piece of rotten flesh, although it looked very scary, in fact, there was no fatal position to be injured. It can be seen that Catherine protects her very well.
Marcia's condition looked better, the sleeveless top kept her arms out of the way, and the skin on her arms could be seen popping open from the inside. Apparently this is the result of using more force than the limbs can bear. Her legs were also bloody, and although she couldn't see them under her pants, it was conceivable that she was in the same condition as her arms. The most astonishing wound on Marcia's body was the end of the necromancer's bone battle. Pierced head-on from the lower edge of the xiphoid process in front of her. Pierced through the back and pierced her stomach with her. But even so, she still remained awake, although a little blood foam spilled from her mouth from time to time, but when she saw Pannis walk in, she still showed an excited smile and said happily: "Victory, I will stew bone broth in the evening." I also want to eat simmered ham with golden olives. ”
Even Pannis's experience didn't know what expression to use to face her, so he could only roll his eyes and pretend not to see it. Move your gaze to Vivien. Vivien's condition was the best in appearance, with no visible scars except for a blue overall-style dress that was a little messy and her hair was burned shorter, but she was the only one who had her eyes closed tightly at this point, motionless as if she had fallen into a coma, without even blinking her eyes. In fact, everyone's mental state is not very good, except for Marcia, who is still struggling with whether to eat simmered ham with golden olives or stewed rabbit meat with thread leaves, Lina and Catherine are not in good spirits. Catherine sat weakly in the corner, staring blankly into the void, not caring about the wounds on her body, as if she was thinking about some problem. Lina didn't rescue everyone in time, or that none of the four were fatally injured, and the rescue was not in a hurry, although Lina's eyes were still smart, but she obviously had something on her mind, even if she spoke, she was in a trance. However, although both of them were in such a mental state, they could still maintain their consciousness after all, unlike Vivien, who seemed to be completely unconscious.
"Sure enough, it was a victory. Pannis breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and asked calmly: "It's hard to believe that the four golden tiers faced a legendary mage head-on, and they actually won so easily, and they were enthusiastic when the two of you fought back to kill that legendary rank......
"There is no comparison. He shook his head enthusiastically and coldly: "At that time, we were using all kinds of traps, coupled with sneak attacks and ambushes, and it was not a head-to-head duel at all. But thieves and assassins weren't meant to face each other head-to-head, and they weren't right compared to the two of us. ”
"Okay, okay. Pannis didn't argue, and asked Lina, "What's wrong with Vivien, and what's going on with you and Catherine? Why haven't you started treatment yet?"
"Leave her alone. Lina sighed and looked at Vivien enviously: "She said she saw a way out of the wall, and now she went to find it." My eldest sister and I are not geniuses, so we can't see clearly, and we're still looking for a way. I can't die from the wound or something anyway, so it doesn't matter if I wait a while. ”
"They're back, too. Catherine came back from her trance, stood up cautiously, and carefully kept her frozen right leg from accidentally breaking: "Let's treat it first, and then we can think slowly, I've seen the scenery behind the wall once, are you afraid that you won't be able to find the way?"
"Okay. Lina put her arm on the ground, and as soon as she got up, she immediately fell back, and said with a wry smile: "It hurts so badly, Kateria will really make trouble for me, and when I left, she blessed me with a spell, so that I won't be troubled by fatigue for the time being, but this thing is going to explode once after that, what the hell." ”
"Enthusiasm, you put down your indulgence first. Pannis sighed, walked over and put his arm around Lina and sat up and asked, "What about the order of treatment, who will come first?"
"Of course I'll do it myself. Lina groaned at Pannis's movements, grinning and slamming her flattened calves, "I remember in the Crying Cave, I flattened once at the end, and it was miserable." ”
"Ha, ha. Pannis laughed dryly, in fact, that time had something to do with him, so in addition to giggling, Pannis could only change the subject: "How did you defeat the legendary mage? To be honest, I originally thought that you would be able to easily delay until we came back, but I didn't expect you to solve the problem on your own." ”
"Because we all underestimated the alchemist. Catherine jumped over on one leg and sat down with the wounded waiting for treatment, covering the ugliness of the flesh on her face with a handkerchief, blocking Pannis's vision: "Drinking more than a dozen bottles of potion, it feels as if there is an inexhaustible amount of strength in the body, whether it is agility or strength, whether it is mental power or fighting energy capacity has been raised to an unimaginable height, it feels like every movement can affect the energy in the surrounding environment, this experience is simply amazing." ”
Pannis, surprised and enthusiastically indulgent, looked at each other strangely, and smiled imperceptibly: "And then?"
"And then?" Catherine thought for a moment and smiled mischievously like a child, "and then keep it a secret." Although we may not be able to fight with all our strength for more than half a month, we won, even if we rely on potions, but potions are also part of our strength, so we won, hahahaha. ”
As a knight, there is no need for a reason to pursue victory and glory, Catherine smiled heartily, even Lina, who was busy with treatment, was infected by Catherine's happiness and laughed happily.
"What about you?" Catherine waited boredly for her turn to be healed, "Two captains of the Shadow Hand, what are you doing here instead of trying to steal gems in a neutral place?"
"I came here after stealing it. Although the indulgence was weak, his mouth was still idle, and he teased: "I know that you have returned the gem to the auction house, so I deliberately went to steal the gem back first." That auction house is still in a mess because it was lost again, so I don't believe I'll show it to you. ”
"Hey. Catherine squinted at Indulgence and groped in her backpack, and was really startled: "You won't be serious, will you. ”
"Of course I lied to you. Indulgence rolled his eyes, withdrew his hand and said, "It's not a task, who has time to steal again." ”
"When I said I lost something, I remembered something. Seeing Catherine being ridiculed, Pannis suddenly let out a strange laugh, secretly ran to Vivien's huge backpack and rummaged for a long time, took out a large package with a mysterious face, slowly opened the package, took out a frozen human leg from it, and stroked the slender and dense thigh casually, with an intoxicated expression: "We were so lucky to pick up a particularly beautiful long leg at the door of the temple, and I don't know who lost it." Tsk, it feels so good that I decided to take it home as an ornament. ”
The indulgent face suddenly turned red, red as if it was about to drip blood, no one could have imagined, the demeanor was full of flattery, every movement was like a teasing of men, and many indulgent faces who would wake up next to different men in the morning would suddenly become so red. The blushing indulgence suddenly floated up like a cloud, kicked Pannis's stomach, and snatched his leg back, only to flip back into place, hide his leg behind him, and glared at Pannis angrily through gritted teeth, "You damn bastard." ”
"Help. Pannis was kicked and rolled on the ground with his stomach in his hands, and after rolling for a long time he struggled to crawl back slowly, groaning and saying, "I think I'm going to be kicked to death, help." ”
"Alas. Catherine looked at Pannis with pity and said softly: "Although I know why you are and I want to say thank you, but, I don't know what's going on, I just can't control myself, I can only say to you, I deserve it." ”
