Chapter 34: The Witch
If Bering were still alive, he would have turned pale with horror.
But now that he was dead, there was no trace of fear on his bloodless face.
Strictly speaking, Bering at this moment is indeed frightened.
This was the first time he had such a clear "fear" since he was reborn.
Even in the face of the "web weaver" and the "guilty side", Bering did not have the slightest fear, and even he had many methods and plans. Not to mention the two guys who killed the "dangerous" level, even the more powerful Bering has thought about how to deal with it in advance.
But witches are different.
Because, she is not of the same level as anyone!
Stretching out his hand and pressing his temple, Bering's brain raced: "'Witch'...... Now she's a 'Calamity' xeno, but in a year she'll be 'Origin'! β
Even among all the xenos recorded in the diary, the "witch" is one of the most tricky!
Because Bering in the original world can only be able to have some superficial information, his understanding of the "witch" is actually not too deep, but just a little leaked news can already show the horror of this guy!
['Witch', the date of birth is unknown, but it is only known that her name before becoming an alien was "Chris."] She is an indifferent referee and bystander, rarely appearing in front of others, but when she does, it often leads to serious consequences! γ
[In the second year of the new calendar, the 'Witch', 'Nightmare' and 'Demon' once teamed up to plan an incident. The specific situation is no longer incomprehensible, and the only thing that can be confirmed is that a certain peninsula has disappeared, and the creatures on the island have disappeared en masse! γ
[In the seventh year of the new calendar, the 'witch' appeared in Tokyo.] The birth of the xenomorph 'Rift Girl']
[In the ninth year of the new calendar, the 'witch' appeared in New York State, and the xenomorph 'Killer Jason' was born]
Looking at the "witch" hidden in the shadows, Bering's eyes flickered.
"Why is the 'witch' here? There is no mention in the diary that the 'witch' will appear during this time...... Could it be the butterfly effect? β
Although Bering had already guessed that his actions during this period of time might lead to some unpredictable consequences, in order to minimize this possibility, he made a choice that would not change drastically.
But when it comes to alien species like "witches", it can't be said that it has little impact on the future.
"Tsk, even if 'I' try to avoid drastic future changes as much as possible, but the original world itself is not a god after all."
The ability to predict the future is not a perfect interpretation of all the possibilities of the future, and only real-time activation can predict the future direction.
Either way, the "witch" has appeared, and this cannot be changed.
Now it's more important to know what this guy is trying to do.
Leaning against the wall, Bering thought thoughtfully, "She talked about 'Red Lotus' before...... Could it be that her purpose is Ding Yan? No, judging from the tone, she didn't know about Ding Yan's existence before. β
"Except for Ding Yan, the only people present who are more abnormal are me and Zou Ye. But the witch had no impression of me before, so it couldn't be that she came for me. β
Well, the answer is clear.
The "witch" is for Zou Ye, or more accurately, for the "guilty side".
That's a ...... Crashed into it.
Holding a certain silent ball of light in one hand, Bering was full of thoughts for a while.
On the other side, the "witch" slowly emerged from the shadows.
Although there is no light in the operating room now, many people's mobile phones are still lit with bright optical fibers, so this guy's appearance is so straight into everyone's sight.
The witch's hair was bright silver, as if it was not stained with a trace of dust, and it was so beautiful that it made people feel dizzy. And underneath the silver hair is her mysterious whirlpool-like smile that absorbs everything.
This is a woman full of "dreamy", "hazy" and all other dreams, and it is no wonder that some people have given her the title of "witch".
She looked at Ding Yan and said in a somewhat surprised tone: "I see, is it the remnant of 'Red Lotus'?" However, although it is said to be a residue, it is also the essence. It's fun to be able to carry the origin of that monster, and a human like you. β
Shaking her head slightly, her silver hair fell like a waterfall, and the witch tied up her hair and said with a pleasant face: "It's a pity that you are still too weak now, and there is no way to compare with the 'Red Lotus'. Well, for your safety, why don't you listen to my advice? β
Her voice was soft: "What about me, now I need the guy who fought with you before, why don't you give that guy to me, and then I'll give you some benefits that are very meaningful to you, and help you suppress that guy in Red Lotus, as a deal?" β
Ding Yan didn't speak, just surging flames, and his eyes were full of indifference.
The witch who watched this scene couldn't help frowning: "Strange ......"
She seemed to have noticed something, and was about to speak, but the next second, she was interrupted by a voice.
It was a crisp clapping of hands.
Bering, who was leaning against the wall, clapped his hands and tilted his head to look at the witch.
Bering said, "Good evening, Miss Witch. β
The voice instantly attracted the witch's full attention.
She turned her head to look at Bering, her pretty silver eyes full of scrutiny and speculation.
It was a long time before she spoke, "Are you?" β
At this time, Bering's figure can be regarded as reflected in the eyes of the witch.
This is good, because it means that the witch has a little interest in Bering for the time being.
Anyone who is interested in witches is usually not killed immediately.
It sounds cruel, but it can't be helpedβas an alien, it's still too far from humans. As a result, most xenos are unable to empathize with humans.
With the exception of a very few, the vast majority of xenomorphs can be considered "monsters".
Including the witch herself.
In front of him is a monster like a bottomless abyss, and in front of him, Bering is like a circus actor, walking a tightrope under the gaze of the monster at every step.
The difference in strength between the two sides is extremely large, as long as the monster has a little boring mind, then the actor will be skinned and cramped, swallowed meat and deboned, and even the bones will be bitten clean.
However, the actor is not without a chance of winning.
Animals in nature know how to stretch out their colorful tail feathers to act as their own warning color to scare off enemies. So as an actor who teases the beast, it is natural that he can disguise it so that the beast is extremely jealous.
In the final analysis, it depends on acting.
The acting is mysterious, the acting is strange, and the acting makes the witch jealous and does not dare to act rashly.
Taking a deep breath, Bering gently tugged at his trench coat.
This action made the paleness of his neck slightly exposed, and by the way, the live broadcast was turned off.
Follow-up things, but you can't be on the live content.
"I'm the leader of Tomorrow Day, you can call me a 'prophet,' just an insignificant, fate-tricker." Bering said softly.
"I was a little surprised to have such an audience as distinguished as you in the presence of such an insignificant theater. It seems that my knowledge of fate is still a little unsatisfactory, the repertoire prepared in a hurry is a little boring, and the actors who play the play are too shabby, so that they neglect the distinguished guests. β
As he spoke, Bering shook his head slightly: "In that case, then please allow me to make up for the belated etiquette." β
As the words fell, he took a step forward, pressed his hand to his chest, and bowed to the witch in an impeccable classical gesture.
"Salute to you, descendant of Zaraktu, perverted prisoner of Tartarus, man who reneges on an ancient oath, thief of the garden, traitor of unrepungeon ......"
Bering's voice was gentle, like the murmuring of a stream.
However, the more he continued, the more unsightly the witch's face became.
These titles were neutral from the beginning, but when it came to the bottom, Bering could almost be said to have put the intention of the squirting witch directly on his face.
But her expression was still within the acceptable range.
At least she didn't do it in the first place.
Soon, Bering's long title came to an end.
ββ¦β¦ Allow me, then, the Prophet, the leader of the Bright Day, to extend with high courtesy to the mad, vile, vicious, inhumane, and lowly Miss Chryss Charaktu. β
Bering smiled and said, "To welcome our distinguished guests to this insignificant little theater." β
As soon as this sentence is spoken.
In the next instant, the witch's face suddenly changed!
