52. Outcome of the conflict
"That's what you mean...... Do you have pity on me?"
Luna's breathing became rapid and dangerous, and despite being poured with Lin's special potion, Luna's aura was increasing instead of decreasing. In the past, Lilou was not unusually beaten by Luna in the name of "sparring", but now, there is no room for it.
Lilou knew that the teacher, who had taught her so much, was already angry.
"Don't be too presumptuous, Lilou! You've read too many of those unbridled storybooks and think you can be as strong as those virtual 'heroes'?" Luna adjusted her breath several times, then slowly propped up her weak body from the ground, her eyes fixed on Lilou, "Don't make a fuss, just hide behind the adults!"
"No matter what you say, Sister Luna, I won't change that decision. ”
In front of the murderous Luna, Lilou did not show any cowardice. On the contrary, when Lilou saw Luna make a fighting stance, she also made a defensive gesture against each other. Luna was stunned when she saw this, and she burst out laughing.
"Hmph, it seems that you little devil didn't just talk about it. ”
Luna forcibly suppressed the urge to sleep in her body, and Lilou came prepared, and Luna could feel the pressure of the potion—as soon as her tense nerves relaxed slightly, she dared to say that she would not be able to resist the urge to fall asleep and lose consciousness.
Luckily, Luna isn't just any elf. Few of their kindred will hone their minds over and over again like Luna. Luna is the strongest warrior of the Elves. It's not just combat skills that topple the charts, but also determination and tenacity. It's the same.
Luna also has a way of dealing with drugs...... Although the potion that Lilu gave herself this time was indeed a bit fierce, it was still within the range that Luna could resist!
"Just beat you up before you have a seizure!"
"Ugh!"
Despite her defensive movements and mental preparation, when Luna's straight punch was blocked by Lilugo, Lilu still felt the pain of her forearms in both hands, as if they had been broken by someone.
-- I can't get rid of the force at all!
In order to neutralize the attacker's power, Lilou has tried to deflect Luna's power by connecting Guò's body to her feet as much as possible. But. When the wooden floor under Lilou's feet had been cracked and broken, she was unable to completely unload Luna's power. Seeing that Luna's second attack was about to approach her cheek, Lilou didn't care about offending her or not, and gave up her full defense and chose to start fighting Luna instead!
Previously, she felt that Luna had an old wound and her body had not yet recovered, and with a large dose of potion, she should be able to barely cope with it...... However, it turns out. Even under such conditions, Lilou's idea of using guò to drain Luna's power through guò mere defense is naïve.
- I'm sorry, Sister Luna. Offended......
Lilou stopped holding her hand and lifted all her power to take what Luna had taught her. A counterattack was made against the teacher.
As a result, in the face of Lilou's counterattack. Luna didn't dodge at all, and used her body to take Lilou's attack. Before the surprised Lilou could react. Luna also imprinted her attack on Lilou's body!
"Hmm!" x2
The two of them retreated several steps in unison. Lilu, who was still inexperienced, slammed her body into the wall behind her, and several cracks were directly smashed into the poor wall on the spot, and the corners of her mouth were already oozing blood, and Luna's condition may not be much better than Lilu, but compared to Lilu, Luna has obviously been used to all kinds of injuries, although Luna may have been more seriously injured, but on the surface, Luna is more comfortable.
"Ahem......"
Lilu clutched her chest and coughed up a mouthful of blood in pain. She could feel that two ribs had broken between her ribs, and the broken bones had even pierced her lungs. Just when she subconsciously wanted to be treated, the violent aura that rushed to her face made Lilu endure the pain and drag her injured body to make a defense.
Luna had no intention of pausing to recuperate, and she endured her injuries and continued to launch a stormy attack to subdue Lilou on the spot.
She understands very well that if time drags on, it will be herself who can't hold on in the end. For now, the only way to do this is to defeat Lilu before you lose your ability to fight!
Luna didn't dare to relax at all, and she made up her mind that no matter how Lilou reacted, she would have to think about everything else after Lilou was knocked unconscious - because Luna couldn't afford the consequences of Lilou's victory!
As an elder, as a teacher, she asks students to take risks instead of her, even at the expense of herself, for whatever reason, which is unacceptable to Luna. Luna knows what kind of mentality Lilou has for her offense this time, but she can only respond to Lilou with this "incomprehensible" attitude!
Is it okay to smile and accept it at this time?
How can it be!
It was at this moment of negligence that Lilou was snatched by Luna in the high-intensity battle of lightning and fire, and in an instant, a series of concise and powerful heavy blows fell on Lilu's body, almost taking away Lilu's ability to move and think on the spot - several key limb joints were directly broken, and the severe pain almost interrupted Lilu's brain and thinking. However, Lilou gritted her teeth and avoided Luna's final blow, taking advantage of the moment, to use her left hand, which was still free, to send a fierce response to the old Luna.
Luna snorted, her body tilted, and she fell to the floor behind her, and Lilu was able to break away from Luna's two meters of her body with the help of the reaction force, but because almost all her limbs were broken. Like a broken pocket, it fell weakly to the ground.
"You lost. ”
Luna braced herself up in her body, which was starting to feel a little weak. Slowly approaching Lilu: "Although the determination is good, you still can't be ruthless. ”
Luna understood. If it weren't for the fact that Lilu still had room to make a move when she was doing it, she might not have been able to take advantage of it - after all, she didn't have it when Lilu kept her hand, and she didn't ...... when Lilu slowed down Luna couldn't help but feel ashamed, she was the teacher, why was this situation of "learning" completely reversed?
No matter what...... Give Lilu a punch first. Let her fall into a coma first-lest she will have too many dreams at night.
As for apologizing or something, let's leave it until everyone wakes up.
"Indeed...... I can't be cruel to Sister Luna. Seeing Luna approaching her, Lilou's face didn't show any panic or disappointment, "However, everything depends on a ruthless force, and that's just a reckless man, not enough to take - this is what Luna sister told me in the first place." ”
Lilou's gesture made Luna have a bad premonition in her heart.
"Lynn gave it to me. It's not a hypnotic drug. ”
Luna only felt her heart suffocate, and the magic around her body flowed back in a strange way, making it difficult for Luna to maintain her body on the spot. With a plop, the wolf fell to the ground.
Her limbs were incapacitated, no matter how hard Luna tried. There was no response.
"Don't try, Sister Luna. Even if you try to wrap your magic around the surface of your body to drag your limbs around. There is nothing that can be done in this case - according to Lynn, the individual's will is temporarily disconnected from the body, and the body does not receive any signals no matter how the brain works...... The same is true of physical movements, and the same is true of magic. ”
Luna was speechless at the moment - she had lost the ability to control her vocal organs, and although Luna was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot at the moment, nothing could be done.
"If you don't mistake it for a hypnotic potion, you might find out about it in advance, Sister Luna, right? I'm sorry, but I lied to Sister Luna again...... However, if it weren't for the fact that Sister Luna had been diverted by dealing with hypnotic drugs, I wouldn't have been able to guarantee the outcome. ”
- Not only did he ignore the true nature of the potion that Lilou gave him, and rashly raised his strength to suppress it, but instead accelerated the flow of this potion in his body and accelerated the speed of his seizures?
Luna didn't know how to face Lilou anymore, she only knew that her mood was very bad at the moment, very delicate - she fell one step earlier, which meant that Lilou's "willful" thoughts, she couldn't stop it......
When did this somewhat natural child become so scheming?
Lilou calmly treats her torso and limbs, and after a few moments, Lilou stands up and slowly approaches Luna, who is no longer able to move.
"Sister Luna, if you do it, you're going to die. Your body hasn't been conditioned yet, and it's impossible for you to withstand that kind of tossing...... But I'm different. Trust me, I'm not going to die...... We elves have a long lifespan, and even if we do it, we won't be like humans, separated from yin and yang - as long as we wait, we can always wait until the day we meet again. By then, Sister Luna, you can punish me however you want......"
"I ...... Right now...... I just want to ...... Punish you......"
Lilou's eyes widened in surprise as she looked at Luna, who was barely trying to speak intermittently between her teeth. The potion that Lin gave her must have a guaranteed effect, and Luna can actually speak with difficulty, no matter what she thinks, it is not the problem of the potion, but Luna's own reasons.
"I'm sorry, Sister Luna, you can get some sleep first. ”
Unable to sumuse her physical strength and magic, Luna is unable to resist the onslaught of ordinary hypnotism, even if Lilou herself is not proficient.
Luna stared painfully and blankly at the image of Lilou in front of her, which faded away as her eyelids closed downward, and finally, when the object in her sight was immersed in darkness, Luna's consciousness was disconnected.
“......”
Lynn stepped out quietly and watched as Lilou carefully carried Luna's body to the bed, arranging her clothes and covering her with a blanket. It's quite a bad feeling in my heart.
Lilou would have such thoughts, not necessarily without her and Aisha. Over the past period of time, the element of conscious guidance has been in. Although in the end I made up my mind. Or Lilou herself, she and Aisha really didn't give enough weight to induce, and the fundamental factor that prompted Lilu to make the choice was not them...... But it can't be changed, she plays the role of a dishonorable inducer in the process.
Otherwise, Lin wouldn't have acceded to Lilou's request last night.
- Is it right or wrong to do it?After seeing the conflict between Lilu and Luna, Lynn is also confused. Don't say anything else, if last night. If she finally didn't agree to Lilou's request, what would the situation be like now?
Aisha had promised that Lilou's life would not be in danger because of what happened next, but when she thought that Io would search the world for news of Lilou later, Lynn couldn't laugh at all - what was the difference between this situation and yin and yang? What's worse was that elves lived far longer than humans, and ordinary humans could dissipate their obsessions with the end of their lives in a few decades. For the elves, it was a protracted process.
"Lynn, thank you. ”
“...... If you're satisfied, it's fine. ”
Lynn wanted to put on a smile, but it ended up on her face. But it was a strange expression of crying and laughing. Fortunately, Lilou's attention was on Luna at this time, so she didn't notice Lin's abnormality.
"While Her Majesty the Empress has not yet noticed the situation here. Let's go...... How's it going to be with Io?"
"No problem at all. ”
Lin had hidden her abilities in front of the elves before. Now that she knows the location of the elven princess, she wants to take Io. It's not a problem at all - the way Lynn moves through space is a completely different approach than the usual one. Until she is not prepared enough, Lynn's actions will hardly be affected in any way.
"That's great, please, Lynn. ”
Watching Lilu urge herself to take the elven princess away from the safe area of their clan, Lynn couldn't help but feel strange in her heart, and even had a sour feeling.
......
================
“...... So, why am I being dragged by you to do such a dangerous thing?"
Sheena says that when Lilou finds her, she refuses. Because, what Lilou said was too dangerous and sensitive, she couldn't say anything and promise something, right?
"In the end, someone has to bring the elf princess back. ”
Lilou didn't answer Sheena's question directly, so Lin answered on her behalf: "Although it may cause unnecessary trouble for you to be a foreigner to be involved in such a thing, but now, we can only ask you as a foreigner." If Lilou had someone else to ask for, she wouldn't have to knock down Luna to escape with the elven princess. ”
“......”
Looking at the elf princess Io, who was carried behind by Lilou, Sheena was also silent.
At first, she thought that these two girls were going to do something earth-shattering and betrayal, but after learning what had happened, she didn't know how to open her mouth to Lilou - what Lilou had done, almost unilaterally, was an act of death.
"The Heavenly Realm is closed, how can you come back then!?"
Even if the life span of an elf is almost the same as infinity, if we can't see each other again in this life, what is the difference between saying goodbye to heaven and man? If Lilou does this, even if Io wakes up, she will definitely not be happy, right?
As soon as she remembered the intimacy between these two elf girls she saw at that time, Sheena even wanted to forcibly tie her back!
"However, there are only three of us in the clan who can complete this ritual step - one or two others, Sister Luna and Her Majesty the Empress. The former, like me, is the guardian of the Elven Sacred Scriptures and can mobilize the power of the Elven God, while the Empress Xià, because of the royal bloodline, can also achieve a similar effect...... In addition, the other clansmen, even the most powerful and powerful, could not channel the power of life that could be comparable to it. ”
"That'...... Those two people?"
Sheena was also stunned for a moment - she naturally understood, under the current conditions. The Elven Empress is impossible to get out of no matter what. Otherwise, this backbone will be lost. Humanity's aggression may turn into a catastrophe. And the other one......
"She's your teacher, isn't she?"
Lilou nodded silently.
Instead of calling the other party a teacher, Lilou instead called her "sister", and Hina could understand what kind of emotions Lilou was hidden in such a title - she probably regarded the elf woman as her own sister, right?
It is said that elves, especially elven women, are very sensual beings - to humans. Those who lack maternal love will subconsciously look for similar substitutes in the older women who are close to them, but for elf women, even if they do not lack the corresponding love and affection, they can easily have similar emotions...... Although Lilou's childhood had some gloomy places, overall, it was not a tragic childhood.
"I don't want Sister Luna to die, and Sister Luna doesn't want me to take her place...... So we got into a fight, and in the end I did a little trick -- so. Now I'm here. ”
"But, your mother...... What should she do?"
Sheena remembered that Lilou was a man with a mother—so she left her mother behind and chose to sacrifice herself. Is it really good?
"Mom, she's going to be sad, but if I didn't, she'd be angry. Lilou gave an answer that Sheena didn't expect at all. "I'm here to do this, and I just can't come back for a while; If it were up to Sister Luna to do it, her health was not promising. Going to die...... The nature of the two is completely different. If I turn a blind eye to Sister Luna's 'suicide' and don't stop it, that's what makes my mom sad. ”
“......”
The values of the elves are really terrifying - Sheena couldn't help but sigh. If this kind of morality is a common phenomenon for the elves, she thinks that the hundreds of thousands of powerful coalition troops are estimated to really have to return home.
"Of the people who went to the 'Throat of the World' on this trip, only Sheena and you will stay, so when the time comes, the task of taking the Elven Forest of the Io Society will still fall on you. If the clansmen misunderstand you at that time, please bear with me a little, Sister Luna and Her Majesty the Empress will definitely not embarrass you. ”
Lilu saw a sad expression on Sheena's face and hurriedly comforted her.
- I'm not worried about myself at all, but I care about you stupid girl...... Sheena is still a little confident in her own strength, as long as it's not a monster like that weird purple hair, she feels that relying on her own strength and just thinking about escaping, even if it's an elf clan, if she doesn't tear her face, she can't keep her, right?
"You...... Will you really be able to come back?--According to you, when the time comes, the roads between the heavenly and earthly worlds will be closed, and it may be even more dead than the passage to the demon world. ”
"Absolutely!"
Seeing Lilou's confident answer, Sheena thought about it, and swallowed the last sentence that was a little ruinous - Io, Luna, and even Lilou's mother, who had never met before, might have that lifespan, until the day Lilou returned...... However, Sheena says that she is just an ordinary human being.
I hope that when the time comes, my descendants will be able to witness this moment on their own behalf - perhaps, at that time, it is a question whether there is still their own blood in this world...... Forget it, let's follow the fate.
......
With Lilu and Sheena with her, Lin didn't dare to use her spatial mobility ability, and could only rush to the "Throat of the World" in the usual way. Along the way, they didn't find a single elven pursuer chasing them, and Lilou was relieved when she thought about it - probably, the elven queen finally gave up sending someone to chase them after learning about this, right?
As far as her personal emotions are concerned, she naturally hopes that Luna can survive - of course, it is not that the Elven Empress is happy to see Liludai Luna "sacrifice", but when there are only two options chosen, it is difficult for the Elf Empress to maintain the attitude of a saint.
"'The Throat of the World'......"
Hina looked at the majestic mountains in the distance and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "From now on, here." Surely there are only legends left, right?"
The passage between the celestial realm and the earthly world is no longer open for a while after a while. Rather, it was permanently closed after the world's highest mountain range. There are only mysterious and unreliable legends.
"I heard that at the foot of the 'Throat of the World', there is a small village that is almost isolated from the outside world, and I wonder if they are there. ”
For two days in a row, Aisha didn't send any news to Lin, and Lin knew that Aisha was probably already making arrangements at this moment - in order to blind all the eyes and ears from the divine realm, Aisha couldn't communicate directly with her heart at this time...... Because of the ban she set herself, all the transmission of information over a certain distance was prevented, even herself.
"I've been to that village once. Honestly, nothing special. "Those inhabitants, with the backwardness and ignorance common to people in remote places, have not developed a special culture with a distinctive character—even if there is a famous mountain behind them, it doesn't add much point. ”
Especially the village elder, this is annoying—when she thinks about the experience, Hina still feels very uncomfortable.
"Isn't there anything that has made a good impression on you?"
During the two-day journey, Lynn also learned a little bit about the personality of this human assassin - beyond her abilities. This human girl by profession as an assassin (Sheena:...... Unexpectedly, it was a very ordinary person.
Why is it that there is nothing special about the ordinary personality, but it is very surprising? The general profession is an assassin, but it is still so outstanding in combat effectiveness and almost dominates, not all of them should be with a cool and cold face all day long. It's either an iceberg or a facial paralysis, all in all, it shouldn't be like Sheena. When you don't have a weapon, you're just as gentle as a normal sister next door.
"You've said you've been to a lot of places in the past two days, but basically all of them don't seem to leave a good impression on you......"
Sheena passed through a lot. Lynn was also interested in the customs and customs of this era, after all, many places in her time had either left only a few traces in the history books, or had completely become unrecognizable. However, Lin also found a trait, almost most of the places, Sheena gave a low evaluation......
"This ...... Well, let's put it this way, if you go out on the street alone, but you are surrounded by couples in pairs, you are alone, even if you go to a very lively place, will you get excited?"
"I don't understand. ”
Lilou surrendered immediately, but Lin understood the hidden meaning - the legendary "sorrow of a single dog"?
In the past, she had to experience the torture of the couples around her several times every year.
However, if you care so much about this situation, you will be unhappy when you go to any scenic spot, and you will only have a negative dog in life that has declined to the extreme, right? Even Diosi will not be so downcast...... However, now in front of Lin, a person with such an attitude in life is a beautiful woman with a very good temperament.
It's so disobedient, is there?
"Sheena, if you want to find someone you like, shouldn't it be difficult?" Lin tried to ask Sheena, "As long as Sheena takes the initiative, there are not a few noble sons with good conditions and good personalities who are attracted to you......"
"Uh......"
Sheena hesitated.
What should I say? I'm a man, and there's no problem with my sexual orientation, so how can I seduce those boys? It's just because during this time, if I switch identities, it will really cause a lot of misunderstandings, so Sheena has always maintained a female posture - usually it's a male posture in the activity!
But then again, even if it's a woman...... Since the death of her sister, Hina remembers that she seems to have no expectations or impulses for other women......
Wait!
Hina suddenly felt that something was wrong - how did it sound as if she had some strange feelings for her sister? According to this line of thinking, wouldn't it mean that if her sister was still alive, the object of her affection would be ......
"How could I be a pervert who likes my sister!"
“......”
“......”
"Did you say it?"
"Just now...... What Lynn and I just heard was hallucinations!"
Sheena hastened to explain, but Lynn and Lilou had apparently listened to her question thoroughly, and couldn't help but wonder if they hadn't even asked Sheena to verify it again - Lilou had already taken a few steps backwards with the sleeping Io, and Lin stood in front of the two of them, seemingly protecting them from some kind of contaminant......
"Don't worry, we don't discriminate against sisters. ”
"Since you don't discriminate, what are you doing with such precautions against me!?"
Even if Hina is wearing a female appearance now, and she is not misunderstood as a perverted brother who preys on her sister, it also feels very strange - because according to the context of the time, this kind of "sisterly love" is considered to be a minority in the sense of purity, right?
"Because you're hiding yourself. ”
Lin unceremoniously poked at the weakness in Sheena's heart: "If this feeling is revealed openly, then there is naturally no problem." However, Sheena, you hide this love for your sister in the bottom of your heart, and you try your best to hide it in front of others - generally speaking, only a guy with a ghost in his heart will be so nervous!"
With each word, Sheena's body shrank a little.
"When you talk about feelings, what does it mean to have a ghost in your heart? That means that your love for your sister is very subtle, so subtle that you think it is difficult to put it under the sun--so that you must be a ghostly and distorted love! to the point that you yourself think is very perverted!"
"That ......," Lilu said weakly, "the orthopedic skills of our elves are still good, if something goes wrong one day, you can come to us for treatment......"
"Why orthopedics?"
"Huh, the man's ...... Isn't it said that it is called a 'third leg'? If it is broken, it should not be seen in the orthopedic department?...... Uh, no, Sheena is a girl, there's no need to go to the orthopedic department......"
“......”
No, I'm actually male......
Hina couldn't help but burst into tears. (To be continued......)
