22. We are to the gods what flies are to urchins

In the smoke of gunpowder, more and more thugs rushed out of the dungeon and gathered together, and soon there were nearly 100 people.

The demon who rushed out glanced at them from afar, and saw that they were outnumbered, so he turned around and climbed over the wall and quickly disappeared into the streets and alleys of New Yokohama.

There were also quite a few members of the Ninth Lesson who rushed out, some blended in with the mob, and some waited in the distance with angry faces.

Apu's eyes were sharp, and he saw an inner ghost guard in the crowd who had fought side by side with him just now, and subconsciously waved his hand: "Hey, brother, here, let's leave together." ”

"Ah, it's you." The guard walked over, with an uncontrollable smile on the corner of his mouth, "Three years, I've been in this ghost place for three years, and it's finally dawn......"

Having said this, the guard's eyes saw the man fiddling with the shield in the guard's room, so he raised his hand to say hello.

"Lao Liu, we ......"

Suddenly the earth trembled.

The guard's voice was abrupt.

The cold hair on his body suddenly stood up, and he felt the terrifying coercion, and couldn't help but look up at the sky.

Nance, who had just burst out of the dungeon, stopped suddenly.

An early warning came from the sabotage engine.

[Positron strike detected in transit]

【Calculate the amount of damage】

[The current load limit has been exceeded]

[Daemon Engine Not Activated]

[Undefensible]

【Start Data Backup】

Nance's heart sank.

Two beams of light, one in front of him and one in the back, fell in front of his eyes in the middle of the crowd in the square.

"Brush—"

At this moment, a dazzling light illuminates the entire Shin-Yokohama.

There was no violent explosion, only a scorching white light that poured out of it, turning countless dirt into lava and burning all the human bodies that had no time to wail to ashes.

Blazing air currents hit your face.

The dazzling white light stretched out a white and delicate palm and clenched Nance.

The scorching dazzling light then engulfed the entire ninth lesson.

The five senses are deprived.

Silent, breathless, tasteless, in this ubiquitous thermal light, all tactile sense of direction and thinking lose their meaning, and everything in heaven and earth is annihilated......

Nance, who fell blind for a short time, was enveloped by a warm feeling, and she could clearly feel the beauty in it.

It is a powerful, majestic and noble aura from ancient times.

And a little kind......

It's Mommy's...... Phew, it's the Queen.

Don't think about it, it must be that the magic element in her body has sensed the queen's call, and she is urging Nansi to hurry up and find her.

After waiting for the bright light to fade away, he rubbed his eyes a few times and slowly opened them.

Gradually, I saw that the ground had melted into a large crater, and the earth was still steaming. Except for the two ladies who followed Nance, there was not a single person alive in the entire square, not even a corpse.

It was desolate and lifeless.

It's as if you've suddenly arrived in another parallel world.

"What should I do......" Tokizaki looked at the ruins in front of him in a trance.

The cation cannon, a weapon with great lethality, has come out, indicating that the mastermind behind this riot is definitely a force that is too strong to shake, and even she, who has always been calm, feels a little helpless.

After a long silence, Nance walked towards the gate.

"Section Leader......"

The adjutant's worried voice came from behind him.

"I'll be back later." Nance didn't stop.

When he reached the door, he suddenly felt a slight chill on his cheeks, looked up at the gray sky, and realized that the snow had been falling.

Descending the steps of the gate, he saw a black umbrella on the seashore break.

Hidden under the umbrella is the face that is incredibly beautiful and noble at all times.

Those pair of extremely magnificent eyes seemed to have countless stars shining, bright and dazzling.

The snowflakes are falling lightly, and the queen just stands quietly in the snow, which makes people feel beautiful.

Sirens were heard far away.

Watching the lively citizens, far or near in front of the gate, there are many discussions.

Nance made her way through the crowd and under the umbrella.

The queen handed him the umbrella.

Nance didn't answer, just stared at her as much as she could, as if trying to see through what she was thinking.

However, there was no meaning in these moving eyes, only a faint smile.

"Hold an umbrella!" The queen said without refusal.

Nance had no choice but to take the umbrella and silently look at the gray sea.

After a few seconds, he turned his head again, looked into her eyes, and opened his mouth to say something, but couldn't say anything.

Looking at his restrained appearance, Ximena couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle, blinking her autumn eyes, with a slightly cunning expression.

It was the first time Nance had seen her so approachable.

That still noble face is a little contradictory to her current affinity, and for the time being, there is no indifference and arrogance that makes all living beings ashamed of themselves, but it still seems very provocative.

He stretched out his hand: "Reacquaint yourself, Ximena Eveles." Known as the Black Gold Pearl, she calls herself the Queen. ”

Nance hesitated and took her hand, "Nance, there is no Adel. ”

The Queen's hands, small, warm. The skin is smooth and delicate, soft, noble and elegant.

It's been a long time.

For a long, long time.

Ximena finally spoke, smiling slightly, "You've been holding it for a long time. ”

"Don't worry, I'm not tired!" Nance replied solemnly.

The next second, he let out an "ah" sound and withdrew his hand in pain.

The palms of my hands have been blistered.

"Next time I offend this king, I won't let you go so easily." Ximena looked indifferently at the sea.

A few strands of pink and white hair were blown by the sea breeze and stuck to the corners of her slightly upturned mouth, and the innate cold arrogance was much more restrained, and there was a little more intimacy of the sister next door.

She continued: "If there is anything you want to ask, hurry up, this king is not in the mood to accompany you to enjoy the snow." ”

"A lot of people died just now, ha......" Nance kept blowing cool air into her red palm, his eyes sneaking at her side face, "It's not just the thugs, even the staff of the ninth class are almost dead." I don't understand why they, people like the captain of the guard......"

"Can't bear it?"

"It's a bit ......"

"This king doesn't hate kindness, but there is something you have to remember." Ximena looked at him sideways, her expression recovering a little cold and arrogant, "As flies to wanton boys are we to the gods. They kill us for their sport。 ”

(We are to the gods what flies are to naughty children, and they kill us for their pastime.) )

Nance felt this sound familiar, but for a moment she couldn't remember where it came from.

The Queen continued.

"Why you? Why him again? Actually, there is no why. Whoever you step on is just inadvertent, everything is impermanent, that's all. When you are stepped on, you can only sigh at the insignificance of people and the powerlessness of people. So before you get stepped on, climb well. ”

Her voice was extremely moving.

But what she said was so ruthless that it was desperate.
