Chapter 606: The Piper
When the Virgin Cortilia opened her eyes, she saw a spear piercing the ground, the tip of which was sinking into the ground, silently burning with flames.
This is a cave.
The cave was illuminated by the light of the fire, and at the same time, the light also dispelled the mist of the surrounding Yellow Springs.
At the entrance of the cave, a young man sat on the edge of the hole, looking in her direction indifferently.
Cortilia was about to sit up subconsciously, but a burst of pain caused her to take a breath of cool air, and she had to sit back down.
The pain tugged at her cheeks, and she couldn't control her expression, gritting her teeth, looking down at her abdomen, which had been wrapped in bandages at this time, and had been treated with a simple emergency.
Bai Yu said lightly: "Your organs have been damaged a lot, I just gave you medicine not long ago, it will take at least five hours for it to grow back slowly, there is no anesthetic at hand, the process is not very comfortable, if you feel sad, I can also give you physical anesthesia." β
Cortilia shook her head: "It's still not necessary to stun me, I still want to ask you what happened." β
"Looks like an injury is causing your memory to be confused." Bai Yu continued to look out of the cave.
"My consciousness should be quite clear...... Cortilia felt difficult to even move a finger at this time, but there was a stone pressed under her back, she was a little uncomfortable, and she couldn't move her body: "What is this place?" β
"Yellow Springs."
"Where's Yellow Springs?"
"Yellow Springs Deep." Bai Yu said.
"Why in the depths?"
"I'm not here on vacation anyway." Bai Yu said without a match.
"I don't understand what you mean."
"You really don't remember?" Bai Yu turned around again and asked, "How much do you remember?" β
"What I remember is ......" Cortilia said suddenly, "Wait, what about Andrei?" What about your fiancΓ©e? Why are they gone? β
"You didn't say 'fiancΓ©es,' at least it proves that your memories haven't fallen off too much." Bai Yu said to himself: "My memory is confused, but I should still be able to remember the events of three days ago......"
"Mr. Bai, please answer my question."
"Lost." Bai Yu said: "What else can it be? β
"Then why don't you go out and find someone?" As soon as Cortilia asked this question, she realized that she had made a fool.
Bai Yu also looked at her with a human-like gaze: "Why don't you think I go out?" β
He said, "Otherwise...... Did you bury yourself? β
Cortilia opened her mouth, speechless.
"It seems that the Pied Piper really has a great influence on your sanity...... To tell you the truth, I'm thinking about whether or not I should stab you again and wash your brain. Bai Yu's right hand was placed on the lionheart.
The saint was embarrassed for a while, and then her eyes widened: "Your injury was caused by you?" β
"Otherwise, who has the ability to break your protective body in the mobile church, and burn your holy shroud?" Bai Yu raised his eyebrows proudly.
"Why are youβ" Cortilia snapped as she said, "You just mentioned the Piper." β
"Uh-huh~"
"I've been influenced by the Piper?" Cortilia suddenly felt creepy, and she murmured, "This is impossible, my protection is perfect, there is no way he will have the opportunity to exert a spiritual suggestion on me!" β
"There is no absolute protection, and there is no absolute security...... If you had told me earlier that the Pied Piper is now dead, it's a pity ......"
Bai Yu held the red tassel spear and injected it into the phoenix's inner breath, and the flames rose by half.
He spoke, and his thoughts went back to three days ago.
On the Huangquan front line three days ago, although there was a lot of pressure to resist the hundred ghosts from Huangquan, with the joint efforts of many masters of the Four Realms, it was considered to have stabilized the formation.
Especially with the addition of a saintess who is good at praying, the samurai on the front line are always bathed in the blessing of powerful buffs, and it can be said that the more they fight, the more courageous they become.
Originally, as long as the front was stabilized and continued to support until the end of the Huangquan Purge, there was no big problem, and even after the seventh day, ordinary samurai and troops could enter the field to catch a wave of fries and beat the water dogs.
But on the fourth day, Cortilia suddenly found White Elm and confessed something.
She and Andre actually came to Yingzhou, in addition to looking for Yasen Robin's secret room, but also to hunt down a lackey of the outer god who was exposed to walking.
Because she got a clue, the outer god lackey codenamed Pied Piper will definitely enter Huangquan...... Because the Piper's goal is also the Chamber of Secrets.
Cortilia didn't initially plan to tell White Elm because she thought she and AndrΓ© were good enough to deal with the Pied Piper.
But this time, the situation of Huangquan Daqi deteriorated too quickly, and it took three days to barely stabilize the formation.
And she knew that what the piper was best at was disturbing internal order.
He is very good at all kinds of mental strategies, especially good at spiritual suggestion, but he himself is not a mage, but has a unique mystery given by the outer gods, and has caused many humanitarian disasters through spiritual suggestion.
The Piper was so hostile to the Holy Church because he was a missionary among the followers of the outer gods...... There are also many people who have been tricked into the water by him, and once they have received the blessing of the outer gods, it is impossible to turn back.
Cortilia's relatives were among the victims.
After she and Bai Yu confessed some of their past, they took the initiative to seek a collaborative relationship.
But by this time it was too late.
The swordsmen on the Huangquan front line have been instigated by the pipers, resulting in serious infighting and estrangement.
Even if Bai Yu tried to carry out a wave of werewolf killings at this time, it was completely too late.
On the fifth day, the swordsmen who had been safe and sound suddenly drew their swords and fought each other.
This led directly to the collapse of the Yellow Springs front.
A large number of demons and ghosts broke through the front line of Huangquan and completely broke the front.
That is, in this brawl.
Bai Yu had to kill the two swordsmen who had fallen into a state of madness, and immediately went to find Cortilia.
As a result, as soon as the two sides met, Cortilia launched a frantic attack on Bai Yu.
At the same time, several fourth-order demons rushed into the battle line.
There is also the appearance of the Pied Piper.
Andrei attracted some of the demons.
Bai Yu fought and retreated, entered the depths of the Yellow Spring, dragged the holy woman who was not divided between the enemy and the enemy into the depths of the Yellow Spring, and defeated it without outside interference.
After the defeat, Cortilia fell into a coma, and it was inconvenient for him to kill her directly...... The saint is still useful.
She is the only person who knows the exact location of the Chamber of Secrets and who the Piper is.
Bai Yu is not the type to be beaten for nothing and not fight back.
But in this way, it is inevitable to separate from Amamiya Masa.
She was still on the front line at the Yellow Springs at the time, and she may have retreated to the rear now.
Judging from the Immortal Chronicles, her condition is still intact and safe.
Bai Yu plans to wait for Cortilia to regain her mobility, and then turn back to find the true day first, and then go and kill the Piper...... He wrote down this vendetta, and he had to pay it back soon.
After listening to Bai Yu's dictation, the saint gradually remembered what was going on.
She apologized embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, this time it's my problem." β
"An apology is useful, but what else do you want the police to do?" Bai Yu said lightly: "And there is no sincerity at all." β
Cortilia asked, "What sincerity does Mr. Bai want?" Tsudosaki? But I can't move a finger now. β
"You owe me my life, no problem, right?"
"No problem."
"Then if you have a chance to give me my life." Bai Yu said very plainly.
"Yes." Cortilia promised, "I swear to the Lord. β
"I haven't said how you're going to pay it back."
βοΌβ
"Maybe it's good to have one?"
ββ¦β¦ Please respect yourself, it is not gentlemanly behavior to make fun of an injured lady. β
Her Highness was not as red-faced as the little girl, and the Romans were indeed more resistant in this regard.
Bai Yu's words changed: "If the piper is slaughtered, it can be regarded as your life." β
"That was my goal, but now I'm a little less confident." Cortilia looked at the white mist outside the cave: "I don't remember what he looked like, and I don't remember what happened to me during my mental suggestion. β
"Most of the outer god lackeys are difficult to deal with, and it's normal that you can't handle it." Bai Yu suddenly remembered this: "There is also a conflict between the Holy Church and the outer god believers? β
"Conflicts can't be talked about, they are in the dark, we are in the light...... It's usually hard to meet head-on, and if it weren't for my family's business, it's almost impossible for me to know that there are still such people. Cortilia said, "But all along, the Holy Church has had an organization dedicated to hunting mages and cultists. β
Bai Yu sat a little closer: "Tell me more." β
Cortilia said, "I can say, but before that, can you ask the gentleman for a favor?" β
"Don't say you want to go to the toilet at this time." Bai Yu's expression was subtle: "I can turn around." β
"No, my back hurts a little......"
"It's normal to hurt, I've kicked it a few times, and I have a good foot feeling."
"I didn't ask you that, I mean, there's a pebble."
ββ¦β¦ Are you a pea princess? Bai Yu said: "Is there really such soft skin?" β
Her Highness took a deep breath: "Sir, please imagine that if you have a pebble in your sneakers, you will be ...... no matter how you walk"
"Don't say it, the sense of substitution is coming." Bai Yu walked over, helped her upper body up, and then bounced the pebble away.
"Thanks, you can let me down." Cortilia was held by the princess, she was very unaccustomed to it, but her body had no strength, so she could only stick to the opposite side.
"I can't let go of ......" Bai Yu refused to let go, and his casual expression suddenly became serious: "The plan has changed." β
He turned and walked out of the cave, and with a kick of his right foot, the lionheart spear spun around in mid-air, shaking away the thick and bleak white mist outside the cave.
Cortilia asked inexplicably, "What, what's wrong?" β
"I'm afraid there's no time to wait for you to regain your mobility."
"Huh? Are you in such a hurry......
"It's so urgent, urgent, and as fast as thunder and lightning...... Bai Yu's eyes were like lightning, and he looked directly at the several demons wandering outside: "I'm going to rush back now, if you want to stay here, it's okay, I can go back and help you build a beautiful tomb." β
Cortilia had no choice at all, so she had to reluctantly compromise: "I still want to live, please try not to be too wild." β
"Don't worry, my old driver, sit tight and hold on!" Bai Yu stepped out of the cave and turned into a flash of fire and pierced the yellow spring.
