It's a secret that only a few people know. This secret is related to Xiuya's past.

She said that she was the same as Zero, and she was not talking nonsense. It's true, Xiuya was also born in the wilderness, and she was really born in the wilderness. Xiuya's father was a mercenary with a fourth-order ability, which was already a good liliang in the wilderness more than twenty years ago. The mother is an ordinary person, beautiful but definitely not glamorous, and she is a good match for her fourth-order ability.

However, when her mother was about to give birth, Xiuya's father never came back after a mission. He was tasked with attacking a base, but it failed. The leader of the base was furious, and not only found out who was behind the attack, but also killed all the mercenaries and family members who participated in the attack on the base. On the very day she gave birth to Shuya, the killers found her home and killed her mother in her bed.

As for Xiuya, she unexpectedly survived because she was born with a strong energy. The leader of the killer organization sensed this liliang and concealed Xiuya's existence from the past, leaving her behind. But this was definitely not a lucky thing for Xiuya, and she was then sold by the high rank to a small nobleman in the city of eternal night. The nobleman was childless and wanted to adopt Xiuya as his daughter.

If this were the case, then Xiuya's life would not have had so much suffering. But at a certain banquet, Xiuya's adoptive father offended a relatively powerful figure in the Eternal Night City, so he was killed. At that time, Xiuya was only 5 years old, but she was already elf and cute. After her adoptive father died, she was adopted by the adult, but instead of being an adopted daughter, she was a slave!

At the age of five, Shuya lived in a dark dungeon for a long time, and every once in a while the adult would come to "visit" her. It was an absolutely unbearable horror experience for her, and it was in this hellish day that Xiuya spent 5 years. At the age of ten, Liliang of the sixth order fought her way out of the dungeon, leaving the big man dead in her sleep, and then set fire to the house that hid her humiliating years.

Also, in order to harvest Xiuya's tempting peach at the most opportune time, the lord has always retained Xiuya's virgin status. In the midst of that flame, Xiuya left with what little dignity she had left, and soon joined the Scarlet Knights' Youth Band. She's smart, and the big man isn't a top nobleman in Eternal Night, but he's also a middle-class person.

Therefore, Xiuya knows a lot of information visibly and invisibly, one of which is as long as he can become a blood horse. Even if she committed a serious crime before, it would be written off, and with her amazing talent, the Youth League absorbed her as soon as possible, so that those who wanted to avenge the big man could only sigh. Subsequently, Xiuya was also attacked in the Youth League, and the attack naturally came from that hatred.

It's a pity that two years have passed, Xiuya is still alive, and those who want to kill her are dead. Two years later, he joined the Blood Rider with the strength of the seventh order. Becoming the youngest knight in the history of the Bloodriders, he was also noticed by Speaker Oglock. Soon after, Ogllock officially adopted her as his daughter, killing everyone who knew about Xiuya's past, and from then on, all information about the middle-class nobleman was erased in the city of eternal night.

And Xiuya's secret was kept as a top secret. Rhine would know so much because he and Xiuya were members of the Youth League at the same time. Rhine will never forget, when he first met this girl. Obviously smaller than himself, but he exudes a powerful momentum. She was like a flower covered in thorns, piercing the blood of everyone who approached her, whether it was good or bad.

It wasn't until he was adopted by Oglok that Xiuya slowly changed, but from one extreme to the other.

Therefore, her capricious nature is inseparable from her experience. Even Rhine doesn't know which one is the real her now.

After Xiuya became the strongest knight in the blood horse, she quietly disappeared for a while. No one knows where she went during that time, only that she came back covered in blood. Of course, it wouldn't be her blood, and Oglock didn't say anything about it, so naturally no one traced what Xiuya had done during the time she had disappeared. Only a handful of people happened to know that a base in the wilderness had been completely populated overnight. In particular, the leader of the base was nailed to the wall with a wooden tree. And on that wall, someone drew a huge cross with blood.

No one knew what that meant, and no one dared to associate it with someone, even if the two events were basically happening at the same point in time.

This is the multifaceted nature of Xiuya's character, proud, willful, brutal, and cruel. In her own way, she went on a rampage in this turbulent era and wrote her own history. Without a doubt, the expedition to the Black Earth is definitely the thickest of them all. No one thought she could do it, after all, even the admirals in that place had lost one or two.

But with the rank of major general, she forced a gap in the black earth and a glory of her own.

Just when everyone thought she would continue deep into the Black Lands until she had conquered the savage land completely, she returned, and said what feared Rhine the most. She became interested in Zero, a man who was also born in the wilderness and also broke out of the world with his liliang.

Or rather, resonance.

Because they have similar experiences, they think that the other person is their own kind. And the same kind of people always absorb each other. Otherwise, the swords are facing each other, and there is not much space for anything else.

And whether you like Zero, you still have to go to war with him. Neither is a good thing for the Parliament, the former will lose a major general for nothing, and the latter will add a strong enemy. Even though Zero is still young, even though his shili is not as strong as Valhalla. But behind him is not only the Dawning City, but also the alien circle in the far west. The latter, in particular, would be an absolute test for the council if the alien race poured out.

Rhine felt the need to dispel the idea of Xiuya, and although it was difficult to shake her decision, Rhine still said, "Xiuya, whatever you think. I have to say that, don't touch that man. Now that you've read his profile, you should know what's behind him. And now, we cannot afford to fight a war on two fronts. ”

"You're thinking too much, little Rhine, and I didn't say what I was going to do to him. Xiuya jumped off the table, stretched, and said, "Anyway, I want to go to the City of Dawn first." ”

Rhine's face changed, and he said, "Do you know where that place is? In addition to crossing the front line where we are now fighting Valhalla, you also have to bypass Asgard. Then he traveled thousands of miles west, setting foot on the edge of the alien circle in the far west. That's too dangerous!"

Xiuya half-squinted her eyes and said, "You don't have to care about it, I have my own measure." ”

"And what about when you get to the City of Dawn?"

"Just get in touch with that person, if it's appropriate, I'll marry myself, anyway, that's what my father meant. After he came back, he didn't introduce me to those wealthy sons. Xiuya said with a wink.

Rhine couldn't help but exclaim, "This is not the same at all!"

Xiuya Hahadaxiao got up, patted the table and said, "Little Rhine, you really can't hold your breath and lied to you." But I still want to go to Dawn, and whether it still exists after I go or becomes a city of hell depends on his attitude. ”

Hehe sneered, Xiuya shook her long hair and said, "Prepare hot water for me, I'm going to take a bath!"

Rhine watched with a headache as the demonic figure disappeared into the banquet hall, and he suddenly felt a little nostalgic for the front line. Or, it's much easier to fight on the front lines than to receive this demon in the garb of a beautiful woman here.

An off-road vehicle is driving in the wilderness, and the door of the car has the coat of arms of Augustus emblazoned. There were four soldiers in the car, as well as a member of the Fallen Angels. It's a patrol that belongs to a nearby transit station. Starting from Phoenix, the House of Augustus has set up several supply depots in this wilderness connecting to the front line to ensure that the delivery of supplies to the front line will not be interrupted.

Each station is guarded by a hundred soldiers and three to five fallen angels, and the wilderness near the station is patrolled on weekdays to eliminate any danger.

The member of the Fallen Angel sitting in the back seat is named Shagut, a fifth-order elemental domain powerhouse. He was boredly playing with a dagger in his hand, and the tip of the dagger occasionally sparked a slight electric fire, causing the soldier next to him to cautiously stick his body against the car door so as not to accidentally touch the electric fire.

For ordinary people, they can't understand what a higher-level ability person is. Because the high level is too far away from their shijie, it is as far away as a person looking up at the sky. Although the sky is high, it is too vast to see the whole picture. For ordinary people, fourth- and fifth-order powerhouses are already terrifying demons. Just like this Shagut, during the previous inspections, he occasionally bumped into wilderness outcasts who accidentally crashed into the warning range.

According to the orders of the above, the exiles can be simply expelled. But in the hands of Shagut, even death is a luxury. A soldier once tried to persuade him, but the soldier's body was left forever in the wilderness. After that, the soldiers who went on a mission with Shagut had to pray for their safe return.

Looking at the unchanging scenery of the wilderness, Shagut sighed, "It's boring. Isn't it enough for the soldiers to protect something like a transit station, and Weishenme wants to keep our combat strength in the rear. Damn, I'm suffocating to death. ”

Although the people in the car heard Shagut's complaints, no one dared to say anything. I'm afraid that if I say the wrong thing, I will become a corpse in the wilderness. So the off-road vehicle continued to move forward in this oppressive atmosphere, and suddenly the soldier sitting in front of him said "Huh" and said, "Someone is lighting a fire there?"

Shagut looked up and saw a column of smoke rising from a hillside not far away, which became a special sight in the wilderness at this sunset.

A smile appeared on Shagut's face, and that smile smacked of danger: "Finally there is something to kill this boring voice." Let's go, go over and have a look!"

So the buggy drove diagonally towards that hill.

On the hillside, a small bonfire is burning. The hind legs of some kind of mutant beast were roasted on the fire, and the flesh of the beast was already roasted to a golden brown and exuded an enticing aroma. All had one hand reaching out to the flesh on the fire, but the other was slapped away.

"It's really Xiao Ji, how many times have I said it. You have to add something to the grilled haode meat, and it tastes delicious. Retracting her palm, the silver-haired girl took out a bottle from a nearby backpack and sprinkled some of the sandy stuff on the roast room on the fire. These are salt, a very precious material, and I don't know where this girl got it.

The man known as Koji was a young man in a cloak, and his brown hair hung down to his waist. Some of the swarthy faces showed disapproving expressions, and while touching their slapping hands, they said, "Meat is not the same thing, Moni, you are so stubborn." ”

"How could it be. The same thing, cooked by different means, will give off a different taste. Just like people, they experience different things, so their growth is also different. But then again, Xiaoji, you're so good. It's been three years, and you haven't changed at all. I envy you. The silver-haired girl said, carefully placing the bottle of salt back in her backpack. As soon as his hand flicked, he threw out the dagger like a trick, then cut off a piece of roast meat on the beast's leg and handed it to the young man.

"Lala!"

A strange round creature next to the girl opened its eyes and drooled at the roast meat. Then the chubby body flicked and pounced on the barbecue. It opened its mouth to spit out the legs, but the roast and the fire were so hot that it snapped off and rolled around.

Seeing that little thing constantly "Lala" and "Lala" screaming, the young man hahadaxiao gloated and said: "This stupid person, how many times have I been burned and I haven't learned to behave." ”

The little thing seemed to understand the boy's words, and suddenly bounced off the ground. Jumped on the boy's head and gnawed at the boy with the unsharp teeth in his mouth, naturally, the boy only thought it was massaging his head.

The girl named Moni cut off two more pieces of meat, one for herself, and the other at the little thing, saying, "Okay, let's eat, stop gnawing on Xiaoji's head." ”

"It's okay, it won't gnaw anyway. The boy said nonchalantly.

"I'm mainly afraid that Lala's teeth that have finally grown together will be broken. The girl said what she really meant.

The boy "cut" and ate the barbecue in three or two clicks. Then he looked at the beast's leg on the fire, and a thin arc of electricity swept over the animal's leg with the flick of his fingers, and he cut off the second piece of roasted meat. The boy snorted and picked up the barbecue with his fingers, and threw it into his mouth. But the barbecue was too hot, so he blushed and swallowed it hard.

Looking at the young man's embarrassed eating, Moni couldn't help laughing. Even though she had seen this picture countless times in the past two or three years, she couldn't help but laugh every time she saw the boy eating so anxiously. It's not to make fun of the boy's appearance, but to be happy that he likes the food he cooks. You must know that when I first met him, this guy only ate raw meat.

It's been three years.

Quietly eating her share of food, the fire shining on Mony's face. The little girl of the past has become a girl, and the wind and frost of the journey have sharpened her weakness, making her already strong more tenacious and more beautiful.

The only thing that hasn't changed is Girutan, and Lara.

Looking at the boy's unchanged appearance, Moni almost thought that time had not passed, and she was still stuck in the time when she was separated from the man. But it was just an illusion after all, and the most obvious point was that Girutan was still the same. But at least, he was able to speak human language fluently. Aside from those beast-like eyes, he was no different from an ordinary human teenager.

At least, outwardly.

"But I haven't been back for three years, and as soon as I did, there was already a war, what the hell is going on here?" Moni whispered, not hoping that anyone would answer the question.

"Whatever. Let's just go our own way, haven't we heard from him in Windmill Town? The idiots say he's been going west, so we'll go with it. As long as he can't die, we can find him. The boy ate several more pieces of barbecue, and there was basically only one bone left in the animal's leg, which made Lala next to him very angry.

"Yes, as long as you don't die, there will be a time for everyone to meet again. And this time, we're no longer burdened. It's just, are you okay?" Moni remembered the man who had taken her out of Fury Reef three years ago. Three years ago, he chose to leave voluntarily in order not to be a burden to him. Now, it's time to go back to him.

She hadn't forgotten that there was no contract between herself and the man. From the day he took her out of Reef City, she had decided that she would give her all in return. It's a pity that she was still very weak at that time, and the weak even became a burden to him, so she chose to leave. And now, after three years of grinding, the little girl of yesteryear has completely transformed.

She has broken out of her cocoon and become a butterfly!

"Huh, I smell something nasty. The young man who was resting on the ground suddenly bounced, and in a pair of gray-white eyes, the black vertical pupils overflowed with cruel light: "It's the taste of greed, people who exude this taste have always been delicious." ”

Moni also stood up and emphasized: "You can only kill but not eat, don't let me say Xiao Ji again, eating raw meat will make you upset." ”

Girutin muttered "Got it" unwillingly, and then turned his face away and said, "I didn't eat like this before, and I didn't see anything wrong with me." ”

"What did you say?" the girl asked.

The young man immediately puffed up his chest and said, "I said that I would just let me deal with it, I haven't fought for a long time, you don't want to rob me!" said and swiped the arm that looked very thin, but showed a look of excitement.

Moni whispered, "That was not what I said just now. Then I heard the sound of the car engine, and at this moment when the dusk finally disappeared. An off-road vehicle appeared at the bottom of the hill, and the lamppost in front of it shone straight in her direction.

"It's a car. Great, we'll grab it and drive to him!"

On the hillside, the girl's voice sounded happy. Down the hill, Shagut couldn't hear what she was saying, but he heard a woman's voice, which made the smile on his face even worse.
