8 Success
Bluebird and I faced each other in silence, and the atmosphere was quite awkward. After a while, the blue bird finally couldn't help it anymore and took the initiative to ask, "Why are you here?" How did you break free from that bondage? ”
"I don't know, I'll be here when I wake up." I answered her first, and then asked, "Besides, I also have a question, where did you carry me after you stunned me?" ”
"I found you a hotel, and after opening the room with my ID card, I hid the clerk's sight and put you on the bed inside." She explained, "Of course, my shackles were still on you, and they were shackles that would never have been loosened until the sun rose again. Not to mention you, even many witchers can't solve it. If you try to solve the loophole in the drill technique, the slightest mistake will blow yourself apart, and the scattered pieces of meat will automatically turn into twelve mature ......"
What kind of dangerous thing did this guy put on me? It's a shame that she was able to play handsome on me while pretending to be something that would explode for me! I couldn't help but check myself to see if there was any electricity left.
"Okay, okay, don't worry, that's stable. And there's nothing left of you now. She reassured, then looked thoughtful, "However, it seems that your mysterious phenomenon of reaching the Nameless Mountain after falling asleep is indeed more than sleepwalking...... You can't just sleepwalk up the hill so smoothly, and you don't even get mud on your clothes and pants......"
Hearing this, I also noticed that something was wrong. It is not so easy for the average person living in the city to climb the mountain away from the mountain road, but I must have gone quite deep into the natural area of the nameless mountain that is not open to tourists, and there is no road for people to walk here, and even I cannot guarantee that I will be able to pass calmly when I am awake, let alone sleepwalking.
Thinking of this, I checked my shoes again.
There was a bit of mud on the soles and edges, but it wasn't a sign of a struggle to climb the mountain at all, it was just a little mud sticking to it because I was already standing here.
Far from sleepwalking, it was more like being diverted by some kind of space-piercing power...... I looked up at the blue bird, and she shook her head solemnly. It seems that she also does not know the reason behind this phenomenon.
"You still have the amulet I gave you, right?" She asked.
"Here." I took the amulet out of my trouser pocket, "According to your reasoning, as soon as I throw this amulet to the side now, the demon will immediately lock in my position, and rush over as soon as possible." ”
"Yes."
"Since I'm already here, let me do my part." I said, "You set the trap here, and when you're done perfectly, I'll attract the demons." ”
“…… OK. She finally relented, and then added, "But as soon as the demons arrive, you should use the amulet I gave you to dodge." Anyway, you can't escape from this mountain forest, you just need to find a place to hide. ”
"Okay." I also have this plan, although I kind of want to do more, but I also don't want to be a burden and drag people down, "That's right...... Since this mountain forest will make it impossible for the people inside to leave, what about the demons? Won't he be able to get out of here either? ”
"Can't count on it. I'm sure that the lost power that envelops this mountain forest isn't a trap for the demons, but I have nothing to do with the demons...... It's hard to think so. "Her judgment is the same as mine, the lost mountains and forests and the demons who appear here, and the two paranormal phenomena are likely to have an unknown causal relationship.
With a gesture of her hand, countless cyan currents appeared from the air like fishing nets from a lake, and converged in her palm, forming a dazzling thunderbolt sword. The surroundings were so well lit that I couldn't help but squint. No matter how many times I watched it, I couldn't take my eyes off the scene, and the blue bird at this time looked like a swordsman who came out of a fantasy story, but with her white T-shirt and blue jeans, it created an atmosphere that clashed with that fantasy style. It's not a bad conflict, on the contrary, I probably wanted to be like a blue bird since I was a child. Not only can they live in the same society as people everywhere, but they can also show their magical power at critical moments, and face the darkness and evil that try to disturb the peace.
The blue bird swung its sword into the air, and a large amount of electricity was scattered from the lightning sword, turning into something like ropes in the air, and then these "ropes" fell to the grass, like a sinister living snake, lurking among the grass, disappearing.
This seems to be the "electric rope" she used to bind me before, but it has become thicker and more powerful, which is the so-called "super powerful version". Sure enough, just like she mentioned before, after she realized that she couldn't kill the undead demons, she had to change her tactics to seals.
If this sealing tactic fails, I will die if I can't leave the mountains and forests. So, will this experience eventually turn into a dream as well? No, it's as if reality will be turned into a dream. But in fact, if it turns out to be a dream, it means that it was a dream from the beginning.
What catches my eye at this moment is a dream or reality? Although I told Bluebird that "time regression and precognitive dreams are the same thing to my subjective world", that was just my stubbornness, and I was very uneasy about whether I was in a dream or not.
Every now and then, I observe my hands. It's real, but it's also so real when I was killed by the demons twice before. Not being able to tell if you are in reality or in a dream is so confusing. It's a different emotion from pure fear, like your feet not standing properly on the ground, almost like hanging in the air.
I don't want these experiences to be all fake, no matter how much horror or pain they have caused me.
Speaking of dreams, I remembered something and accosted the blue bird, "That's right......"
She was setting a trap and didn't look back, "Hmm——? "Yes.
"No, it's nothing, you're busy." I thought about it and stopped.
"What, you're making me care a lot now." She smiled and looked back, "Tell me, is there any trouble?" It's okay, talking to you doesn't affect my arrangement. ”
I hesitated, but finally told her the strange dreams I had some time ago.
"Hmm...... I see. In a dream, I combined with something like the opposite sex, and when I woke up, I found that I had no desire for the opposite sex......" She listened with a serious face, and then suddenly smiled as if she didn't hold back, "What do you mean by 'something like the opposite sex', just say it's a woman, are you shy?" ”
"No, I'm serious. It didn't feel like it was human, it was something else unknown. I tried my best to bring the conversation back to a serious atmosphere, "Could that be the ghost or resentment at the table in front of me or something?" Because I was saved five years ago and she wasn't, I ......"
"You're too concerned about that. Don't worry, I'm a first-class witcher. If there are any ghosts, resentments, or something wrapped around your body, it will be visible to you at a glance. She said confidently.
"If it's not a ghost or a grudge, then what ......" I began to wonder if there were any other clues.
She looked at me for a moment and suddenly asked, "Is she good-looking?" ”
"I've never seen its face, but it should be good-looking."
"Are you happy to have sex with her?"
"It's complicated, isn't it...... But I was very happy in my dream. ”
"Does it feel real?"
"Very real."
"You can happily experience the joy of fish and water with a beautiful opposite sex every night, what are you not satisfied with?" She asked in a heartfelt voice.
I was thundered by her sudden questioning, "This ...... But I'll have to fix it. I always can't lift myself up to the women in reality, and I can't talk about this and that in the future...... It's still going to have an impact. ”
"What impact can it have? You're not impotent anymore, and the related functions are normal, right? Furthermore, if that desire is not satisfied in reality, you lie down in bed at night and close your eyes, and then you will be satisfied in your dreams immediately? ”
She has a point.
Even I was moved by her. Or don't fix it, right?
"Just kidding, kidding." Speaking of this, she couldn't help but laugh first, "Don't worry, I will help you solve it." ”
"Oh, no. I feel like you're right, and it doesn't seem like there's anything to fix when you think about it. So be it. ”
"No, maybe there really are some bad effects that haven't been revealed yet?" She hurriedly said, "This kind of strange dream like an evil spirit possessed, no one knows what it will develop into later, what if you are locked by some succubus?" After being sucked away all your energy, don't you feel scared? ”
"Is there really a succubus in this world?"
"Why do you men all react so unanimously when they hear the news?" She said angrily, "Yes, there really is." But don't be under any illusions. You men will immediately enter a sensitive refractory period after doing it once, right, but succubus squeezers never care about this kind of thing. All the men who were succubus to death died in agony and despair. ”
"I see."
However, I didn't really plan to give up on solving that strange dream, just a little "revenge" for her bad work just now.
After explaining this to her, she nodded suspiciously and continued back to the trap assignment.
After a few moments, the trap was arranged.
Bluebird took a deep breath, clenched the Thunderbolt Sword, and motioned to me, "Let's start." ”
I took out the amulet, palms down, fingers released.
The amulet fell to the ground.
At this moment, the power that shrouded me and I couldn't feel by myself probably really disappeared; In the next moment, there was a sound in the distance like a cannonball falling to the ground, and at the same time, there was the sound of a flock of birds flapping their wings and fleeing.
"It's the footsteps of the demons." The blue bird said in a deep voice, "He's coming!" ”
Her recent speculation was correct, the demon was able to sense my location, and the talisman did hide my trace from the demon's perception!
I immediately picked up the amulet and hid behind the nearest tree. It took me about eight or nine seconds, and on my back foot, where I managed to hide, the sound of the demon's explosive footsteps quickly arrived from far and near.
He must have been far away before, otherwise it would be impossible not to notice the thunder here. But even at such a long distance, he was able to reach it in less than ten seconds, which is such a terrifying speed. I peered into the battlefield without saying a word, only to see a swift black shadow pierce the night sky and fall to the spot where I stood when I picked up the amulet. And just as he landed, a drastic change occurred.
Centered on the place where he stood, countless thunderbolts erupted from the nearby large meadow. The dense thunder light turned into dozens or hundreds of thick ropes, which firmly bound his torso and limbs!
The blue bird quickly approached him, raised the lightning sword, and slashed.
But this was just a feint, and at the moment when she was about to fall, she suddenly turned into a thunderbolt, went around directly behind the demon, and slashed the thunderbolt sword again.
And the Majin, the man who made a terrifying impression on me, was able to lift the arm holding the great axe when he was bound by so many electric ropes. However, the speed of the two clashing at this moment was too fast, and there was only so much detail of the process that I could see. Maybe the Majin was just frightened by the blue bird's feint, and after raising his arm, he did nothing; Maybe the demon made a few counterattacks after raising his arm, and the blue bird also swung more than one sword.
All in all, I could only see this one result in the end: the Majin's right arm was severed by the Thunderbolt Sword, and the severed arm firmly grasped the giant axe and was thrown high into the air.
Perhaps his body was really made of pure black shadows, and after breaking away from his body, the severed arm quickly disintegrated in the air.
Eventually, only the axe fell from the sky and slashed heavily into the grass a dozen paces away from me.
The Majin has lost his right arm and weapon, and he can no longer resist the Blue Bird's sealing trap!
Just as I was so convinced, the Majin suddenly let out a violent "roar".
In fact, Majin has never made any sound with his mouth, but what he is doing at the moment can only be described as "roaring". He raised his face in the air, and the dark shadow-like substance that made up his body vibrated violently, creating a loud bang like a continuous explosion of a large number of explosives. The black shadow substance even left his body in small amounts, turning into a black demonic wind that was no different from the shock wave, and the blue bird closest to him was immediately swept away.
I was protected by the trees from the wind, but the explosion still had a huge impact on me. Even with my ears covered, I became deaf in an instant. The loud noise even shook my skull in the air, and I felt like my brain was shaking.
I want to think about what to do, but any thought is shaken into a paste before it takes shape. Attention quickly drifts away, and even consciousness is difficult to sustain. I couldn't stand on my feet, and I fell to the ground like an insect.
A reflection of metal appears at the edge of the field of vision, the Majin's weapon, the Siren's Blade.
I crouched on the grass to avoid the demonic wind, and crawled over with great difficulty, trying to pick up the weapon. As for what I can do when I pick it up, whether I will be cursed to death by a mysterious curse if I get it, whether I can hold this giant axe or not, and so on, whenever I surface in my consciousness, I am shattered by the loud noise.
The demon's "roar" continued, and even the electric rope that sealed him was swept away in the strong demonic wind. The Blue Bird had regrouped and was about to approach him again. But the moment all the electric ropes collapsed, it seemed that some kind of impact reached her body, causing her to explode all over her body and fall to the ground weakly.
After the thunder and lightning were extinguished, the woods returned to darkness.
That's when I finally grabbed the Siren's Blade.
The demon turned his head suddenly.
There was still no expression, no sound. However, I clearly felt that a crazy will, full of killing intent and obsession, locked me at this moment.
