Chapter 33 The Heart of Killing
The night was like water, and the lights of the imperial capital were shining farther and farther behind Elaine, until the last bit of light disappeared at the end of the horizon, and Elaine finally slowed down and staggered to the ground. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
As soon as his feet touched the ground, the whole person staggered, and two large mouthfuls of blackened blood spurted out.
Elaine felt the last bit of strength in her body leaving her body.
The good news is that she finally managed to survive her serious injuries and rushed to the coordinates given to her by Phoenix.
This is an inconspicuous hilly area in the southwest of the imperial capital, with undulating rocks and rocks covered with a kind of dwarf black pine, not to mention human population, even birds and animals and other wild animals are not too much.
"Hell, I'm here, but even if this is really Caesar and Nono's teleportation location, it's been a day, will they stay where they are?"
Elaine wanted to find out if there were any clues left by Caesar and Nono nearby, but after walking for a while, the injuries in her body finally could not be suppressed, her body trembled, and she fell to the ground.
The hostess of Earth Street has never been so depressed and embarrassed, she was lying on the ground, thinking in a daze: I should have covered the Phoenix to escape, but I didn't expect her to sacrifice herself instead, winning me the opportunity to escape from the imperial capital. If I die here, or if I can't find Caesar, all the efforts of the Phoenix will be in vain.
Thinking of this, Elaine endured the near-numbing pain in various parts of her body and slowly supported herself.
But just then, a hand pressed her shoulder. In the hazy moonlight, a forest girl dressed in the costume of a forest warrior walked up to Elaine and gently pressed her back to the ground.
This girl is not very old, but her character is very tall, and her body does not have the slender and weak feeling of a girl, but is stronger and more fit than many teenagers of the same age, and she carries a giant javelin that is too big for a man to use.
Elaine was so badly injured that she couldn't even stand up, and when she suddenly saw a stranger in the wilderness, she couldn't help but be surprised.
But after she was pressed back to the ground, she saw that the girl leaned down, and seemed to have no malicious intent, but took off several bottles of first-aid life-sustaining forest clan potions hanging on her belt with her backhand, and fed Elaine them one by one.
Elaine breathed a sigh of relief, vaguely feeling that she had seen this girl somewhere, and stabilized her mind and asked, "Who are you? Why did you save me? Do you know who I am?"
The girl pointed to her mouth and shook her head, looking apologetic.
This forest girl of unknown origin turned out to be unable to speak.
Elaine seemed to want to ask something, but the girl gestured for her not to say more, then reached out and picked up Elaine's body, got up to determine a certain direction, and strode away.
"Don't ...... Don't leave footprints......" Elaine reluctantly spoke, she was worried that if someone chased after the emperor, she would follow the footprints and bite tightly.
But as soon as she finished speaking, she closed her mouth, for she found that the girl was striding and running, not only landing silently, but also leaving no footprints! After observing for a moment, she saw to her horror that the girl was running in the air at all, and with each step, it seemed to fall on the ground, but in fact it was more than a foot above the ground. Volleying in the air is an ability that can only be possessed by a fifteenth-level powerhouse, or a privilege, this girl looks like she is only fifteen or sixteen years old, and she is actually a school officer-level powerhouse?!
After running at a rapid pace for more than ten minutes, the mute girl of the forest fell and turned into a small low-lying valley.
Elaine's eyes were sharp, and she saw two figures looming in the shadows beside the steep mountain wall.
One of them came up to him and said, "It's Lady Elaine...... Caesar said that someone had come to us, but he didn't say who it was, but let the poor go and bring someone back, which made me worry for a long time. ”
Another figure said, "Bring someone here, she looks bad." ”
Elaine thought to herself, no matter how bad her state was, what was the big deal! God forbid, I met you, and I died of my injuries before I met you!
The two people hidden in the valley are naturally Caesar and Nono, who were teleported away by the phoenix a day ago, and the mute girl of the forest who brought Elaine here is Caesar's soul mercenary, pitiful.
Pity was to follow Caesar and participate in the last dragon road mission together. Later, the Battle Commander personally intervened, snatching the "Complete" and "Homecoming" from the Empire, and capturing many Dragon Awakeners, including Phoenix and Long Qiqi. After winter, Caesar, with the help of the craftsman god Russell and Elaine, escaped from General Lan's house arrest and went north to infiltrate the fighting dynasty to rescue Phoenix and Long Qiqi. On the snowy night when he left the imperial capital, Caesar asked Xu Wenjing from Earth Street to help take care of the poor, and it was best to send the poor to Nono to settle down. Wen Jing did it one by one afterwards, so Caesar didn't follow him along the way north and south, but stayed in the Forest Clan, silently practicing the various martial arts of the Forest Clan and the javelin skills that Caesar taught him.
After Caesar and Nono teleported to the ground yesterday, Caesar had not regained consciousness, and Nono was also seriously injured and had difficulty moving, and he barely carried Caesar on his back for a while, so he couldn't support it.
Fortunately, this place is not far from the forest clan, and Nono remembered the pity, so he called the pity by means of a message, and then moved to this valley and settled down temporarily.
At this time, except for the poor who had signed a soul contract with Caesar, Nono really couldn't think of anyone else to trust.
Now Caesar has already woken up, his strength is much stronger than Nono, and his recovery is fast, only a day has passed, he has recovered seventy-seven, eighty-eight, and is thinking about recovering from his injuries as soon as possible, so he will go back to the imperial capital to check. Because Caesar knew that the person who sent him away by mass teleportation was the phoenix, and he was very worried that the phoenix would be punished for this, so he was eager to know what happened in the imperial capital.
"Speaking of what happened in the imperial capital this day, don't talk about you, I dare to believe it now......" Elaine said with a wry smile as she coughed.
Caesar was treating her with swift movements, but Elaine had the destructive power left in her body, and the healing process was difficult and slow. Caesar's face sank and he asked, "The marshal who wounded you?"
In fact, there is no need to ask, the lingering destructive power in Elaine's body is clearly the elemental attribute of the marshal's unique wind, thunder, fog and wood, Caesar almost died under this force a day ago, how could he forget?
Moreover, with the strength of Elaine's legendary realm, even if he was besieged by many disciples, most of them would be able to escape without being mortally traumatized.
The only people in this world who can beat her like this are the marshal, the commander of the northern kingdom, and Caesar himself.
Elaine sighed, and told everything about what happened after Caesar and Nono left, including General Blue's pathological ambitions, the fact that the marshal is actually dead and is now a puppet puppet of General Blue, and the fact that General Blue and Phoenix are about to have a grand wedding.
Speaking of the phoenix storming the legendary realm and fighting for his life to cover Elaine's escape, the originally orderly movements in Caesar's hands suddenly became chaotic, touching Elaine's wound, and Elaine couldn't help but snort in pain.
Nono hurriedly reached out to take over Caesar's healing work and stabilized Elaine's injuries again, while looking at Caesar's face with some concern.
You must know that with Caesar's current peak energy level of level 20 and the super high realm of controlling the rules of "cyan anger", the level of control over his own strength is not at all something that Nuno can imagine.
Although he can't see anything on the surface, how much does his heart have to shake to cause his hands to tremble and his strength to be disordered?
"All in all, that's the way it is now......" Elaine finished and handed over the pure white mask of the phoenix.
Caesar stretched out his hand to take it, looking at the dense cracks on the mask, his fingers trembled, and he didn't dare to touch it, he was afraid that if he touched it slightly, the mask would be completely shattered, and it would never be able to regain its integrity.
Nuno said very slowly: "Caesar, since General Lan wants to use the wedding with Teacher Phoenix to force you to show up, then at least before the wedding, Teacher Phoenix is safe." ”
Caesar snorted.
Nuo Nuo said again: "If you can't hold your breath, care and are confused, and now you rush back to save people in a frizzy manner, you yourself will definitely die, and there will be no one to save Teacher Phoenix." “
Caesar hummed again, got up and turned his back, his fists clenched, his bones clenched, and his tall and sturdy back trembled uncontrollably.
The trembling lasted for about half a minute, and Caesar's tense body relaxed a little, and finally he took three deep breaths and turned back. The short half minute just now was the most desperate half minute Caesar had ever experienced, and it was countless times more difficult than the threat of life and death for himself. Indeed, as Nuo Nuo said, he was about to lose his mind just now and immediately rushed back to the imperial capital.
But in half a minute, Caesar forcibly suppressed his anger and fear with unimaginable perseverance and stabilized his state of mind. When he was in the Northland, he even erased his own memories for the sake of the Phoenix, just in exchange for the power of the rules, so that he could become strong enough at the fastest speed to protect the Phoenix from the threat of the Battle Commander and the Black Egg.
Caesar has been bullied since he was a child, and his heart has long been beaten to be extremely tough, and he also knows that Nono is right, if he really loves the phoenix, he must calm down and not act impulsively.
It's just that Caesar has already sentenced General Lan to a cruel death sentence with a thousand cuts in his heart.
Caesar had never hated a man so much.
In Caesar's concept, no matter how others oppress and bully him, he can be indomitable, work silently, and get the field back, only the phoenix, which is Caesar's reverse scales that Caesar does not allow others to touch in the slightest!
"Okay, I won't be impulsive, Nono, you don't have to worry about me. Caesar sat down again, nodded to Nono, then looked at Elaine and asked, "Wedding...... When?"
"I don't know, General Lan hasn't decided. Elaine whispered, "But since he is in a hurry to force you to show up, he won't give you enough time to heal, and I guess it's only been these two days." ”
Caesar snorted, in fact, he felt that two days was too slow, because if General Lan only asked for the grand wedding and publicized it, and did not ask for grand extravagance, he would not need any preparation at all.
It is estimated that once he arranges an ambush for Caesar to throw himself into the net in the imperial capital, he will immediately hold a wedding.
"Whether my injuries will heal in a short period of time is a question. Caesar thought to himself, "But the more important question is, what are the chances of me winning against that puppet marshal when I have recovered my full strength?"
