"Pretty boy, I'm here to save you lalalala!!!!"
Yuan Zhao howled as he charged forward with the water dragon that he had created with all of his Origin Substances. Immediately afterwards, the water dragon turned into a sieve under the barrage of gunfire. Water splashed everywhere, and its volume shrank by half.
Yuan Zhao roared angrily. The water dragon on the ground opened its mouth and spat out a column of water like a high-pressure pump. Even though it wasn't very powerful, it was enough to scatter the crowd. Even the people who were invisible were exposed by this AOE attack.
The water dragon that had shrunk by half transformed into a blurry giant horse. It was unclear whether it was a horse riding a horse or a centaur. It raised the pitchfork in its hand and stabbed the person at the very front to death. It smiled brightly at Huai Shi through the crowd.
It looked as if it was saying, "Are you touched that your big brother is here to save you?"
Huai Shi was speechless. All he could do was roll his eyes.
"Be careful of your back … …"
A wandering cavalry blade suddenly rose into the air, slashing towards Yuan Zhao's neck from a tricky angle. Yuan Zhao hurriedly used his trident to knock the blade away. His face paled as the trident swept across, shattering two of the horse's legs.
The galloping centaur paused for a moment. Immediately afterwards, everyone's guns were pointed at Yuan Zhao's face.
Huai Shi sighed.
Everything was over.
I'll just continue to rain justice down from the heavens.
Immediately afterwards, he heard the youth roar angrily, "Scram!"
Yuan Zhao howled. He raised his trident and slammed it down in front of him. Water rippled outwards. The Pegasus that had transformed into a dragon whinnied and turned into a curtain of water, barely blocking some of the bullets. However, even more bullets landed on his body. Even his face was torn apart by the bullets, causing blood to spurt everywhere.
However, the Pegasus continued to gallop forward. Amidst the youth's angry roars, the trident swept outwards. The last of the water rippled outwards, creating a sharp blade that forcefully pushed the crowd aside.
"I'm going to save you today!"
Yuan Zhao howled as he ran out of energy and advanced.
Guo Qiang waved his hand. A tall and sturdy Guardian lifted up a large shield and slammed it into the ground. Just like that, the heavy tower shield pushed forward like a wall, crushing towards Yuan Zhao amidst the rumbling sounds.
In the next moment, there was a loud explosion.
Yuan Zhao took a step forward and turned around. The trident curved into a faint arc in the air. Following his stride and the push of his palm, it suddenly bounced off. The trident's blade lit up with a blazing radiance.
The tip of the spear left his hand and flew out like a dragon. It pierced through the shield and smashed the head behind it like a watermelon before continuing to fly forward.
Yuan Zhao, who was in hot pursuit, once again gripped the spear tightly. Viscous blood dripped from the spear's body. He had already stepped within ten steps of Huai Shi.
Beneath his feet, a pair of light golden boots that Huai Shi had never seen before suddenly shone.
His speed, which had already reached its limit, suddenly increased again!
"All of you, scram!"
On his hands, a bracelet-shaped border relic lit up. Yuan Zhao's arm suddenly turned scarlet red. Scarlet flames ignited on the tip of the spear. Following his piercing posture, a fierce light suddenly burst forth.
On his ear, a strange earring that clearly didn't match him sprinkled the light of blessing.
Huai Shi's eyes almost popped out of their sockets. Where the fuck did this godly equipment come from!
Immediately afterwards, he was intimidated by the roar.
Yuan Zhao stepped forward again.
Facing all the Ascendants, he took a step forward.
All the blood drained from his face. The youth's face was deathly pale, but the light of thunder lingered in his eyes.
Immediately afterwards, the sound of thunder burst forth from his hand.
It was hard to describe the ferocity and swiftness of that spear.
It was as if it had truly transformed into a bolt of lightning that struck down from the clouds. It cut through the torrential rain and the hurricane, ripped apart the boundary between the sky and the earth, and completely pierced through the world's largest heaven and earth in a single throw.
It stung every pair of eyes.
The few Ascendants blocking the front were instantly crushed into a bloody mist by the spear, and disappeared in an instant. Lin Yu screamed angrily. The cauldron shook, and the shadow creature that had been hired by Bait according to the contract once again transformed into a sinister appearance, and pounced on Yuan Zhao.
Immediately afterwards, it was torn apart by the waves that burst forth from that spear — even the cauldron that it was attached to cracked. The Weak Water condensed from the Serpent Divine Mark slowly seeped out.
After the spear, the brilliance of the thunder instantly dissipated.
And in the crowd, there was no longer any silhouette of Yuan Zhao and Huai Shi. Only a perfectly straight ravine remained, leading straight into the distant jungle. It cut through a blank trail, and finally plunged into the surging river water.
They disappeared.
They escaped.
In the long silence, everyone was stunned in place. After a long time, there were screams that were close to madness.
Lin Yu roared angrily. Her eyes were burning red from this unprecedented humiliation.
"Chase after them!"
She held the alchemy cauldron that she had found with great difficulty, and her trembling fingers stroked the huge crack on it. In the end, she screamed like a madwoman, "What are you waiting for, chase after them! I want to tear that bastard and that motherless bastard of the Yuan Clan to shreds! "
Guo Qiang and Xi Jiang glanced at each other, and their faces immediately became bitter.
.
.
Following the fluctuations of the river water, Huai Shi felt that he was finally pulled to the shore by Yuan Zhao. After a long time of suffocation, he began to cough violently.
With great difficulty, he finally gasped for breath, and finally raised his head to ask the question that had been stuck in his heart for a long time, "Where did you get so much equipment?"
"I have a deep foundation! What do you know! "
Yuan Zhao grinned proudly. Under Huai Shi's suspicious gaze, he finally shrugged helplessly and looked elsewhere, "I felt that I might not be able to beat them, so I went to Ginza first, and found Sister Ye to treat my leg. Then I borrowed a few pieces of equipment … But the main thing is still relying on my skills, you understand? When I used that spear, they were scared to death! "
"Alright, you're good."
Huai Shi sighed. If you have the ability to borrow equipment, why don't you borrow a few more good brothers to chop these bastards to death?
This time he succeeded in being a hero and saving the pretty boy, so this brat will be very arrogant in the future. But since he had saved him, he shouldn't attack him and let him be proud for a while.
Shaking his head, he climbed up and looked around. When he heard the footsteps coming from upstream, he suddenly frowned.
"We have to go."
But Yuan Zhao didn't reply to him.
Yuan Zhao sat on the ground, leaning against a tree, as if he wanted to hide his back.
His face was pale.
When Huai Shi looked over, he squeezed out a nonchalant smile. Soon after, he couldn't hold it in any longer and spat out a mouthful of blood. His expression couldn't help but contort into a ball and cry out loud.
It hurts.
Blood mixed with the river water slowly flowed down from his back and fell to the ground, dyeing the tree dark red.
Huai Shi was stunned. He reached out and forced Yuan Zhao's back to turn around, only to see several big holes so deep that bones could be seen. There were also broken internal organs and bones inside.
Traces of dark shadows entangled inside, eroding his flesh and rotting his internal organs.
Soon, flies drilled out of the eggshell and flew up from the mangled flesh …
Gunshot wounds, military knife slashes, and curses.
Huai Shi's expression turned ugly. He stared at Yuan Zhao's face that was dripping with snot: "Why didn't you say so earlier …"
"Cut the crap, I'm the big brother … big brother, do you understand?!" While twitching, Yuan Zhao actually had the strength to roll his eyes and stare at him: "Save a little brother … just save a little brother, what's wrong with that?"
Huai Shi was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but sigh: "You're just calling me big brother, you can't be so stubborn, right?"
"You've already called me big brother, and you still want to go back on your word?"
Yuan Zhao didn't know where he got the strength from, but he grabbed Su Chen's collar and angrily yelled: "Even if you're a little brother for a day, you're still a little brother, do you understand?! In the future, in the future … … you're not allowed to steal my girlfriend … … otherwise … … otherwise, you'll be stabbed three times and six times … … "
As he spoke, he couldn't help but grit his teeth, and his face began to twitch. Tears and snot flowed down his face, and he could no longer hold onto Huai Shi. He could only powerlessly slide down from the tree.
He resisted the urge to choke up and stared at Huai Shi's face, his expression serious: "Now … … now I don't owe you anything, do you understand?!"
"It's me who owes you."
Huai Shi didn't want to argue with him anymore. When he saw Yuan Zhao's twisted expression, he sighed and used up all of the Origin Substance he had just recovered to condense the axe blade in his hand.
"Don't hold it in anymore. Do you need my help?"
When he understood Huai Shi's meaning, Yuan Zhao spat out a mouthful of saliva and stretched out his neck.
"Come."
He glanced at Huai Shi. "Remember to hurry up and run … … forget it, you're a disaster anyways. Even if you want to die, it won't be that easy."
As he spoke, he closed his eyes.
Huai Shi nodded and slowly raised the axe blade, aiming it at Yuan Zhao's neck. However, Yuan Zhao suddenly opened his eyes and said: "Wait a moment. Remember to help me return my things to Sister Ye. Also, don't lose this gun … …"
"Okay."
Huai Shi nodded.
As such, Yuan Zhao closed his eyes and stretched out his neck for the kill. However, he immediately opened his eyes again, a bit worried. "Hurry up, I'm scared of pain."
"… … Okay."
Huai Shi sighed helplessly, indicating for him to stretch his neck out. Yuan Zhao glanced at him with worry, but in the end, he still closed his eyes. However, his eyelids blinked and he opened them again.
"Right, there's also … …"
"You're so annoying!"
Huai Shi impatiently interrupted him, and the axe blade fell.
Yuan Zhao disappeared.
A small gold coin fell to the ground.
"In the end, he's still a dead chuunibyou brat. It's not good to be happy … …"
Huai Shi propped himself up with the axe and recalled Yuan Zhao's stunned look before he left. He couldn't help but laugh.
After laughing for a while, he stopped laughing.
His eyes gradually darkened.
Listening to the sound of footsteps gradually approaching from afar, Huai Shi silently looked at the part of the tree trunk that was dyed red and fell into deep thought.
Should he leave?
He should leave. If he walked faster now, none of them would be able to catch up with him.
But was this matter over just like that?
Just because he offended a crazy woman when he was cooking?
He looked down at the axe in his hand, sighed, and asked the red glove beside him: "Do you think we should leave?"
"Let's go." The red glove said.
"But I don't want to leave." Huai Shi scratched his head and emphasized: "I really don't want to leave."
The red glove didn't say anything. He silently took the sacrificial knife that Huai Shi handed over and looked in the direction of the enemy.
Huai Shi picked up the axe again and picked up the equipment that Yuan Zhao had left behind. He lightly tapped them: a pair of light gold boots, a pair of bracelets that amplified strength, and an earring that could replenish a bit of Origin Substance … …
With the Origin Substance, the Mountain Ghost's Sage Insignia could be restored. If his vitality was extracted, his wounds would quickly heal, and he would be able to move again.
So it wasn't too bad.
At least he could still be sent away.
"There's no need," the red glove said. "There's plenty of time in the future."
"You know, I actually didn't need him to save me. I could have handled it myself … … I sent him away mostly because I felt that he would be in the way if he stayed."
Huai Shi looked down at the pool of blood and muttered to himself, "But he really did come to save me … …"
The red glove was silent for a moment, then suddenly said: "You're regretting it."
"Yes, I'm regretting it."
Huai Shi sighed softly. "If only I had used the flyer that Kitten gave me earlier. Why would I owe him a favor? No, I should have been more cautious. I shouldn't have been so arrogant as to think that I could take on two border mercenary groups by myself.
But what I regret the most is that before he came to save me, I never treated him as a friend. "
He laughed softly. "I just wanted to use him … …"
"There's no need," the red glove said coldly. "This is just a game."
"Who says it isn't?"
Huai Shi shrugged and gripped the axe in his hand, looking in the direction of the footsteps.
"That's why I wanted to play a game with them … …"
