66. Kindred
"Oh, okay...... It looks like something is wrong. ”
The city lord didn't know what was wrong, but now he didn't have the extra mind to delve into the scene in front of him and the reason for the occurrence - when the "magic guide" exploded and was damaged due to a short circuit, he didn't expect the situation to become so serious, and what happened next was completely beyond his imagination.
The moonlight in the night sky is converging towards the ground at a speed and scale visible to the naked eye. Previously, they had used a way to attack the intruders who had broken into it, but now, instead of attacking the invaders, they were converging and gradually forming a ...... of astonishing size Monster?
The moonlight that gathered together became more and more abundant, and the moonlight that could originally be described as "soft", after countless superimpositions, also showed an amazing brightness, just looking at it directly, the city lord couldn't help but feel dazzling, and he was a little dizzy. However, even though it had reached a dazzling distance that was almost comparable to that of daylight, the moonlight in the sky continued to spill uncontrollably—until finally, the huge figure that converged was no longer a simple aggregation of light, and began to produce ...... It has a texture like a metal substance.
The light dimmed, and out of the dazzling moonlight, a massive creature stepped out.
"Dragon? no, it's not a dragon ......"
At the beginning, the first reaction of the city lord was the legendary powerful existence of the dragon, without him, such a very intimidating aura. And the huge head with many lizard characteristics, it is difficult not to get closer to the direction of the "dragon family". But. When he took a closer look at the other party's form, he found that it was not the case - compared to the legendary dragons. The monster in front of him seems to be much larger, and there is a big difference in shape...... At least, the monster in front of him, without wings, and his body also looked more "bloated"...... No, thicker? and. It is in an upright position, relying on its two legs to support its body, and its whole body is upright. Ordinary beasts rarely have such skeletons, right? rather, this feeling is already somewhat similar to that of humans?
"The ...... behind it What's that?"
Behind the strange-looking creature, there were no wings, and instead there was a dorsal spine in the shape of a coral. Their shape, though. Obviously sharper, more lethal and aggressive, and because of this, this huge monster has only stood stupidly for the sake of it. didn't make any other moves, which also brought the city lord a sense of danger in his face.
And those who were already dealing with the attack of the moonlight in the sky, and were tired of coping with it. It was also for this huge monster that suddenly appeared, and I felt a heartfelt panic.
The height of this monster...... Visual estimates. It's almost 100 meters, right?
Such contrasting body proportions undoubtedly bring great pressure to everyone. They have a lot of experience in these operations. The mentally good fighters were so unsettled, and the citizens who had just faced the threat of an armed insurrection were obviously even more unbearable.
"Ahhh
"Are you going to die?
"First there was an earthquake, then there was a surprise attack by the enemy army, and now there are such monsters...... Could it be that this is a natural disaster......"
The panic of the townspeople soon spread to these celestial people. If there is any essential difference between soldiers and civilians, it is that when they are faced with the threat of death, their first reaction is not to retreat, not to escape, but to fight back.
Rumble!
I don't know who pulled the trigger first, as the first rocket exploded on the surface of the monster's body, like a racing starting pistol, one after another, the celestial people present pulled the trigger towards this silver-white monster.
Although it is impossible for them to be assigned any newly developed high-precision equipment, these standard weapons that have been put into official use also have reliable performance and power!
However......
"Unharmed?" the city lord hid in the ruins beside him, using the shadows of the collapsed houses to cover himself, and watched as a large yield of weapons and ammunition exploded on the silver-white beast. In the sound of explosions one after another, it was not difficult for him to measure the energy generated in it, there was no doubt that the attack launched in just ten seconds was already on par with a well-trained army of battle mages!
But this kind of firepower attack not only did not cause any injuries to this silver-white monster, but it couldn't even make it move its footsteps! In the perspective of the city lord, before the explosion, this monster was the same appearance and standing posture, and after the chain attack, it was still the same as before!
In other words, in its eyes, Cheng Dù's attack is like a mosquito's bite, and it can be ignored weakly?
"Hey, this guy...... You seem to be angry, huh?"
They had already run a certain distance, but now, the city lord found that the temperature of the environment around him had strangely shown obvious signs of rising, and in a few seconds, the temperature had risen to more than thirty degrees on a cold night. And at the same time, on the back of this silver-white monster, those sharply shaped dorsal spines also began to emit a silver light—the brilliance flashed and flashed, and the flickering interval between light and dark was very close to the sound of his own heartbeat?
The city lord subconsciously covered his chest—unconsciously, he found that his heartbeat had become synchronized with the bright and dark light behind the monster...... Obviously, the sudden increase in his heartbeat brought him a lot of pressure. The city lord propped himself on the ground with his other hand, gasping for breath, but in his heart, he didn't dare to let his guard down.
This sense of crisis and fear cannot be ignored......
Without warning, the silver-white monster opened its large mouth, and from his mouth, a dazzling torrent of silver-white light galloped out. Instantly streaked across the night sky.
"Uhhhh
The lord of the city clutched his head and fell to the ground in pain. Wailing incessantly. At the same time, most of the inhabitants of the city. They were all unconscious—they all saw the silver-white monster breathing.
"That's ...... That's ......."
The city lord's eyes were getting more and more crazy, and reason was being stripped out of his mind little by little. What frightened him the most was that he knew what was happening, but relying on his own will, there was absolutely no way to prevent it from happening! Thinking and consciousness based on reason, watching reason being peeled off little by little, this fear. It almost made the castle lord collapse.
Boom!
The castle lord was quickly "relieved" - a small fist slammed into his head with just the right amount of force, and the perfect "physical hypnosis" was performed on the castle lord without causing bruises and concussions.
"Half-insight, ah......"
Mochi spent some effort dragging the body of the comatose city lord Sang to a relatively safe corner, and also checked the other party's mental state by the way. The result was also quite surprising to Mochi - before, she thought that what he saw was some information mixed with negative things and "contaminated", as a result. This man, purely because he was born with better insight than others, but he lacked enough mental strength to be filled with information that poured into his mind in an instant. As for why it turned into the one seen by mochi. The appearance that reason is being deprived, presumably, is it because of his own mentality?
This man. There must have been some experiences in the past, and being able to reach the point where retrospective can make him mentally unbalanced.
"There's no going wrong. Such a pure 'moon' message ......" While the snake Lori looked into the eyes of the huge silver-white monster that was standing. It's already starting to take on a fanatical color, "This kid is my own kind!"
"Why do I think the information mixed in its breath just now is just a piece of 'waste' information that is copied and pasted repeated......ly?
Seriously, after analyzing the information contained in the "ruined white light", Mochi's head is also very big - not that the information in it is complicated, but purely because it reminds Mochi of some of the swiping maniacs who can paste a message thousands of times on the Internet in the past......
Such a simple and ordinary act can cause a lot of psychological burden on the psychology of almost everyone...... As far as the actual result is concerned, this is "mental pollution".
And the information contained in the breath just now is too simple, so single that all human beings perceived it through guò vision have fallen into confusion. And those who don't have high mental resistance are all kneeling.
"Because it has not yet gained reason, but for some reason it has condensed its form! In other words, it is still lacking even in biological instincts, and naturally it only repeats and exudes the same kind of information outwardly. But, I'm sure it's the same kind as me in the form of zài!"
"Uh...... Congratulations?"
Mochi thought about it, and finally had some reactions, why this Lori was so excited - I vaguely remember that her attachment to "reproduction" is very strong, and she dreams of having a "fellow race" to accompany her. And now, it seems that this silver-white monster can meet her definition of "kindred"?
Kindred......
Mochi looked at the huge monster again - well, although the color is not the same at all, and it doesn't feel so evil, but sure enough, this monster turned into a silver-white moonlight is very similar to Mr. Brother!
claims to be a certain Lori of the same race as this otherworldly version of Godzilla...... Little sister, what does your body look like? Mochi suddenly felt disillusioned.
"But what's the matter now, as you can see, she seems to have no reason or emotion, and she lacks biological instincts, and what she has, so far, is the instinct to fight back after being attacked—and it's starting to go crazy now, what are you going to do?"
Probably because of the high SAN value of the Celestials, or some other reason, those Celestials did not cause attrition because it was the breath of a silver-white monster...... If it is hit directly, it will naturally turn into scum, but the first breath is not aimed at a specific goal. It may be that the other party is also the first attempt to attack this monster. Shooting aimlessly directly into the distant plains outside the city.
It must have been a pit by now, right?
Even if they didn't suffer a direct attack from the monsters, these celestial people had the will to fight. It also began to show an irrepressible rout - in the face of such an overwhelming, almost hopeless disparity in power, even for experienced fighters. Inevitably, fears and thoughts of withdrawal arise.
"Anyway, I have to stop it before it takes a human toll!"
In the pupils of the snake Lori, the determination reflected is extremely firm.
"It's still a blank sheet of paper, but once it's smeared with blood on it...... Then I can only execute him!"
"So, what are you going to do?"
Mochi looked at Snake Lori's slender body: "You now." You can't even play half of your strength, are you? Are you really so sure you can stop this brother...... Uh, I mean, your kindred?"
"Don't worry!" Snake Lori made another confident thumbs up gesture to the mochi, "My strength is not complete, but it doesn't even have reason, no matter what, it can't exert theoretical combat effectiveness! It's just a 'possibility' – not an order of magnitude in terms of 'quality' and 'completeness'!"
=================
"It's really an accident, why did you just make a device to condense the moonlight, and it will evolve into the way it is now?"
NONO observes the giant creature that was born in the moonlight. For a while, I was also confused. According to her calculations, no matter how much it fails, it doesn't make sense. Is it going to be like this...... Especially the feeling that this silver-white monster gave her, it seems. It's very similar to snake Lori.。
Well, that guy claims to be the Serpent of the Sun. This monster is an aggregate of moonlight, could it be said that there is any special connection between it and the snake Lori? In this way, there is a symbol of the sun, but there is no corresponding, symbolizing the life of the moon, which is indeed a bit strange.
"Well, in this way, Aisha's mission has been completed, right? In this city, which is quite far away from the 'Throat of the World', such an earth-shattering change is enough to divert most attention here. Well, in that case, I really have to thank these celestial people. ”
Compared to the news of the destruction of the small town outside the world, a border city that is not small in scale has been repeatedly attacked by the Celestial Army and unknown huge monsters, which can definitely be regarded as heavy news. Although NONO's original intention to help the city lord also has some such thoughts, the actual result is still greatly beyond NONO's expectations - is the effect outstanding?
Sure enough, how do you say that sentence? Intentionally planting flowers and flowers do not bloom, and unintentionally planting willows and willows into the shade.
As for how it ends here, it doesn't have much to do with her...... ALTHOUGH HE WANTED TO SAY THIS, NONO STILL COULDN'T LET HIM FEND FOR HIMSELF AFTER KNOWING THAT THERE WERE ALSO THE CHILDREN OF HIS FORMER STUDENTS.
"Since it is the power of the moon corresponding to the sun...... Hmm, that snake Lori seems to have the power to resurrect the dead, and if she combines her attributes and enlists the power of 'life', then this guy is likely to have the power of the opposite 'death'?"
Thinking about it this way, NONO realized that he couldn't completely stay out of it.
If that kid really died here, Carly would definitely be sad, right? NONO felt that he hadn't reached such a ruthless Cheng dù, and if he didn't even care about the feelings of people close to him, NONO said that he had no need to try to get a relationship in the first place.
NONO, WHO WAS JUST ABOUT TO LEAVE, SUDDENLY LOST ALL HIS ATTENTION TO THE LIGHT THAT ALMOST LIT UP THE NIGHT SKY - FOR THE HIGH-ENERGY ATTACK, NONO REFLEXIVELY TOOK COUNTERMEASURES......
"What am I doing here?"
NONO woke up suddenly.
She looked at her hands in amazement, almost defending and fighting back, and NONO felt very surprised by the shaking of her mind at that moment. Obviously, that attack didn't come in her own direction, and it was clear that she wasn't actually a human but a machine girl-like being, but NONO was still like a panicked human, and subconsciously made a panicked resistance.
For NONO. The lack of prudence and rigor just now can be called "panic".
"I just ...... That feeling. It's not normal. ”
That's definitely not a natural "emotion".
NONO does not deny the existence of emotion, nor does it think. A machine girl like herself has nothing to do with things like "emotion". On the contrary, NONO has always had a very deep and comprehensive understanding of "emotions", especially its own emotions. At the same time, she admitted that there are blind spots in her understanding of this aspect, but the area that she has not been able to grasp for the time being should definitely not be like the one just now...... Unnatural!
That moment. THERE SEEMS TO BE ANOTHER FORCE, ANOTHER IMPULSE, PUSHING NONO TO MAKE A MOVE......
"Dead?"
in their own body...... NONO knew, but it was home to hundreds of millions of undead. They were victims from another world, and they had been a major headache for NONO for a long time. It wasn't long ago that mochi had just relieved NONO a lot, and NONO thought it would settle down, but now it seems. It seems that I am still a little too naïve to think about it.
Although the attack launched by this monster transformed into the moon did not directly attack NONO, it still caused the undead in her body to have feelings of fear...... That is to say. This guy's strength really has a certain "death" quality, right?
"Really...... Don't make a fuss......"
NONO barely managed to recover from the undead in the depths of his body. Started to get agitated again. The power and destructiveness of that blow of breath was for NONO. It's far from stopping. The restlessness of the undead in his body barely made NONO, who didn't need to breathe, gasp. For a while, he couldn't mobilize his own strength at all.
The fear of a dead person cannot affect NONO, but what happens when this tiny fear multiplies and replicates indefinitely with hundreds or thousands of momentum?
It's as if my body is starting to get out of control......
Just when NONO was wondering whether he needed to use some "excessive" means to deal with the current situation, suddenly, in the distant sky, another energy fluctuation appeared—a force that was diametrically opposed to the energy nature of the silver-white monster.
"Is that guy?" NONO immediately recognized it, this is the power of the snake Lori who had a relationship with each other before-sure enough, it is impossible for her to withstand the temptation of such a "kind-red", and come here? NONO remembers, that Lori, but has a great obsession with the same clan.
The breath of the warm sun exuded by the snake Lori immediately dispelled the oppressive feeling of death that shrouded NONO's side, and after being touched by the power of the snake Lori, the souls of the dead who were restless in NONO's body instantly quieted down like a cat that was trimmed.
The strength of the two of them really corresponds to each other, right?
So, how did you come up with such a terrible big guy? This feeling is as unrealistic as if you slashed two shots and blew up a big truck.
NONO decided to go over and find out now—she had a somewhat negative attitude towards this matter, but now, after discovering that the power of both could affect the souls of the dead who were haunting her, NONO changed her mind.
===============
Now, most of the civilians have been completely unconscious, and it is a pity that they can't see this scene in the sky - maybe the silver-white monster is still so terrifying, but the golden light that presents a corresponding posture around it suppresses all the anger on the silver-white monster.
"Quiet?"
Mochi found that the silver monster, as if completely pacified, no longer showed its previous violent appearance...... It may seem strange to say that, but now it gives the mochi the feeling of a tamed kitten.
Especially the long tail behind it, at this moment, it also shook - hey, hey. You're not a kitten or a puppy, and this oversized tail is okay, okay? The height of this silver-white monster is very intimidating, after its tail is cocked. The height is already higher than that of most of the surviving dwellings, but it is not enough to obscure the fragile houses all at once...... It would be pitiful that the high-quality houses that survived the earthquake ended up in this place.
Snake Lori didn't have enough heart to answer Mochi. Originally, even if she was in a weakened state, she had to use all her energy to guide her "fellow clan" at this time, so that she could calm down and gradually gain her consciousness and soul.
The frightened Celestial Realm people were also confused by this scene, but. Finally, the terrifying monster quieted down, and they wouldn't be stupid enough to provoke each other anymore.
"What's wrong with it......" Vlad looked at the quiet beast cautiously, although the other party seemed to have entered a state of calm now, but he didn't dare to continue to take risks, "All retreat!"
"Young Master, this ......"
"Don't you understand the cancellation of the plan!?" Vlad shouted loudly to his subordinates who questioned his decision, "Have you filmed all those just now?
The soldiers didn't know the actual content of the prophecy. They were just a little puzzled as to why they had suddenly begun to attack the overworld—and now, since such a huge monster that could not leave the ground with manpower had appeared, it retreated for a while. It also makes sense.
THEY WOULDN'T HAVE KNOWN THAT THIS TIME THEY HAD RETREATED TO THE CELESTIAL REALM, AND IT WAS UNLIKELY THAT THEY WOULD BE ABLE TO RETURN TO THE EARTHLY WORLD IN THE FUTURE - NONO HAD TAKEN SOME THINGS BEFORE. Selectively sued Vlad some, and Vlad also knew. At this moment, there are several great powers in the earthly world. Prepare to completely close the passage of the Celestial Realm! That is not such a gentle method as another group of Celestials, according to NONO, after this closure, it is likely that there will be a turnaround, and it will be a thousand years later.
However, since there are monsters of such power in the earthly world, is this world really a safe haven?
Perhaps, if it is really like another interpretation, maybe it is also possible that the crisis really comes from the earthly world? Even if it is not, Vlad feels that it is time for his father to dismiss this idea...... Originally, it was because he couldn't stand the verbosity of some people around him that he decided to look for the possibility of taking refuge in the world.
Vlad's father may not be particularly good, but he is not a mediocre king, and the reason why he looks for possibilities in the earthly world is essentially worried about the people under his governance. If the earthly world was so dangerous, he wouldn't have ventured again.
If this reason is not enough, Vlad also has a "killer feature" - just throw NONO out! The name of the number one wanted criminal in the heavenly realm is still very reliable, isn't it?
It is estimated that NONO does not want such "reliability" at all.
“...... If we don't leave this world, we won't be able to go back until what 'that person' said happened......"
"Young Master, are you ...... What are you talking about?" the subordinates around him were surprised by the change in Vlad's attitude, "Who is 'that person'?"
"Won't you see with your own eyes? Well, over there. ”
Vlad pointed to the figure of the "pure white angel" who had approached the silver-white monster. He believed that with NONO's oppressive power in the Heavenly Realm, these stubborn guys would definitely change their attitude immediately, right?
Really......
"Yes...... It's a white demon!?"
"What! That terrible guy has actually come to the earthly world!?"
"Look......, look! She doesn't seem to be afraid of that terrible monster at all!
In a sense, it is true, but the situation imagined by these celestial people must be different from reality.
"Don't say it, it's really possible! You see, the 'White Demon' is white, and this monster is also silvery, and she really made it!"
Although it wasn't NONO's job at all for the silver-white monster to be quiet, almost everyone present believed that there was an unspeakable close connection between the two because of her increasingly demonized image in the minds of the celestial people for a long time!
Seeing his order to retreat, and responding so smoothly, Vlad didn't know what expression to use to face - the thought that his mother was a student of a "monster" with such a terrifying reputation, Vlad had a stomachache.
Anyway, let's withdraw first.
......
"Are you...... Lynn?"
NONO found that the "Rin" in front of her made her feel different from usual, and what was the difference...... It seems that the current Lin is more heroic than usual? All in all, it's a very strange feeling, a Lori who hasn't grown up, gives people a feeling of heroism or something......
But I have to say, it's very flavorful?
"I'm not Lin, I'm a mochi-half-spirit mochi~ Lin is a little tired now, so in the rest, I will temporarily control the body. ”
NONO wasn't too surprised because he had seen Lin's half-spirit, but that seemingly soft half-spirit could have such a complete consciousness and soul, and could even temporarily replace Lin's body?
"Your body, it looks, is weak?"
"Well, that's true. Mochi's face couldn't help but show a wry smile, until now, she has not fully recovered, the burden on her body caused by her previous actions is much stricter than expected.
"ALTHOUGH A LOT OF UNEXPECTED THINGS HAPPENED AFTER THAT, BUT, SHE AND I CAME HERE TO FIND NONO, AND I REALLY WANTED TO ASK YOU FOR SOMETHING - WELL, SOMETHING ABOUT THIS LOLI. ”
Mochi pointed at the snake Lori who was engrossed, and NONO was also stunned when she saw her.
"She?"
NONO felt very strange, this super strong snake Lori, what did she need help with?
She ...... I can't change back into my own body for the time being, so I want to ask NONO to help me make a transformer. Lin already has a specific idea, but in terms of processing, you still need to use NONO's power. ”
Interesting, this guy, can't he go back?
NONO, who knew the body of the snake Lori, couldn't help but look at the snake Lori again curiously.
It's really a good opportunity - she just has an idea she wants to verify, just right, just take this opportunity to find some materials and inspiration from that snake Lori~ Well, in this way, this can be regarded as a "reward"! (To be continued......)
