After finishing her work, Li Lan leaned on the sofa as usual, drinking cold sweet ale, listening to music, yawning, and falling asleep when she was sleepy.
However, at this moment, a knock on the door interrupted her private time.
"Who is it? It's so late. "
"It's me."
Mike's voice sounded. Li Lan was confused. Why was he looking for her so late at night?
She opened the door. Mike was standing outside the door, not very far. Usually, people who knocked on the door wouldn't stand four or five steps away.
He was an exception.
"What's wrong? Why aren't you sleeping? "
Li Lan was confused.
Mike took a deep breath and said, "I have something to tell you. I can only tell you."
Hearing this, Li Lan was stunned. He could only tell her? Her thoughts went astray. Although Mike looked like an uncle, he was about the same age as her brother. Was this the time? She still wanted to focus on her career.
If she rejected him, would he be upset?
"It's about your brother."
Mike suddenly interrupted Li Lan's thoughts. Hearing this, Li Lan raised her head.
"Come in."
Li Lan closed the door.
Mike, who was sitting on the chair, slowly closed his eyes. His eyelids were tightly closed, as if he was blaming himself.
"My father supported the eldest prince's faction. Before the eldest prince died, we were considered a big family. My father even let my brother, who had been practicing martial arts for many years, be the eldest prince's bodyguard."
Li Lan suddenly said.
Mike didn't seem surprised. Such a big warehouse and a martial arts center were definitely not something an ordinary person could own.
More importantly, he knew Li Lan's brother.
"He was a very mysterious person. He never talked about himself. I only know that he was the strongest in our team and the one who didn't like to talk the most."
As the captain, Mike wasn't the strongest in the Shadow Sting Team.
"But he was a kind person."
He added.
This was very much in line with Li Lan's impression of her brother. Her brother had been practicing martial arts under the strict guidance of her father since he was young. As a girl, Li Lan had more freedom and could do what she liked. She rarely contacted her brother. He spent most of his time training.
Therefore, Li Lan didn't know her brother at all. She might even know more than Mike.
"Is he really dead?" Li Lan asked. The news was very sudden, and the family had only held a hasty funeral.
Mike grunted and gritted his teeth. The wound on his stomach was still throbbing.
"I don't know why, but I keep feeling like I'm seeing him again these past few days."
"What? Where is it? "
Li Lan suddenly asked excitedly. If her father knew about this, he might be able to pull himself together.
"No, that's impossible. I saw him … dead with my own eyes … It's impossible for a dead person to come back to life." Mike shook his head. He didn't know why he said those words. Wouldn't it be better if he just kept them to himself?
Li Lan lowered her head. Indeed, she had also seen her brother's corpse.
It was impossible to survive that kind of injury.
Mike sighed deeply. He reached out his hand and placed something on the table.
"This is what he always wears on the hilt of his saber."
Then he stood up and left the room.
Li Lan looked down. There was a pink rabbit on the table. It was a product from more than ten years ago. It was very old.
She reached out and took it. She still remembered that when she was young, in the courtyard of her home, there was a young man wearing a green robe sitting on a tree full of cherry blossoms. When she shyly called out "Big Brother" under the tree, this unfamiliar big brother turned his head and smiled at her.
Li Lan suddenly couldn't help but cover her mouth. Tears flowed from her eyes like beans. When she found out that her brother had died, she didn't feel anything. Why did she suddenly feel so sad?
…
The semi-finals began. Reina faced the champion of the previous competition.
"Can contestant Reina create another miracle this time? Let's wait and see! "
Reina wore a porcelain white mecha. She took a deep breath and calmly stood on the stage. She was already used to this kind of scene. She wasn't as nervous as before.
Standing opposite her was a man wearing gloves and a helmet. He had a stick on his back. His name was New Era Magician Xun.
"Begin!"
With a loud shout, Reina's eyes sharpened. She immediately launched an attack.
Her opponent suddenly pressed his hands on the ground. Suddenly, the ground shook. Sand spewed out like a fountain. Reina couldn't dodge in time and sank into the sand.
"Oh no!"
Li Lan nervously bit her finger.
Xun immediately pulled out his stick and transformed it into a gun. Bang! Suddenly, a bolt of lightning shot out. However, at this moment, with a boom, a person suddenly flew out of the quicksand. Reina stored magic in her mecha and then released it to cause a small explosion. Using the momentum of the explosion, she escaped from her predicament.
Xun looked up. Reina's arms had gathered a lot of magic. Two rays of light burst out. Xun's stick suddenly opened and turned into an umbrella, blocking the attack. Then, he turned around and swung his stick. A crescent-shaped energy flew out and hit Reina in the air.
However, Reina used the Swimming Dragon's Hundred Changes. Using the force of the attack, she flew up and jumped directly on top of her opponent's head. Then, she kicked down.
Boom!
She landed on the ground like a missile, crushing the ground. However, Xun dodged. A magic circle appeared in his hands. In an instant, light like fireflies gathered around them.
Boom!
Suddenly, there was an explosion. The impact of the explosion blew Reina away. However, she turned around in the air and landed steadily on the ground. At this moment, her whole body was emitting white gas.
"This is!!"
"It's coming, it's coming!"
"She transformed!!"
Seeing this, Li Lan and the audience were in an uproar.
Body Fusion!!
The Demon King looked at Reina in the arena. To be precise, this was a half-baked Body Fusion. The gas emitted from her body was the magic that she didn't control well.
Xun saw this and didn't dare to be careless. He immediately broke the stick in his hand into two.
"It's coming! Two Swords Style! "
Some of the audience shouted. That's right, this was the previous champion. Quick Kill, Two Swords Style.
Lena took a step forward with her right foot, causing the ground to cave in. She suddenly rushed forward, turning into a gust of wind. She quickly dashed forward, waving her staff. Whooshing sounds could be heard as the two of them engaged in an intense close combat.
Reina's movements were fast. However, her opponent was faster than her. Almost all of Reina's attacks were dodged. Instead, she took a few hits.
However, just as Reina felt that her opponent was difficult to deal with, her opponent gritted his teeth and felt that she was more difficult to deal with.
This stick, which weighed more than 100 kilograms, was still 50 kilograms. However, when it hit Reina's body, it was like scratching an itch. Not only did she not have any reaction, she was still able to attack fiercely.
Could it be that she had dispelled his strength?
No, she hadn't. Xun could feel the force from the stick. If he didn't wear gloves, his hand might have been shattered.
Was the opponent's mech that hard? No, he had already aimed at a place where there was no mech. However, it was like hitting an indestructible rock.
Bang!
He quickly struck the stone pillar with his stick. Suddenly, the stone pillar emitted a loud noise, and a hole was smashed in it.
Demon King smiled. Compared to strengthening magic, the biggest use of Body Fusion was that it could greatly increase one's defense. Reina's body was very special. If she didn't have an indestructible body, she wouldn't be able to use her magic well.
At this moment, Xun was careless. Reina threw a punch at him. He couldn't dodge it. He placed his two sticks in front of him, wanting to block Reina's punch. However, he didn't expect this punch to send him flying more than 10 meters away.
"Oh! Contestant Reina finally hit her opponent! However, Xun stood up immediately. Wait! Something's wrong! "
Just as he was about to stand up, his body swayed, and he suddenly fell down again.
"Contestant Xun has fallen! Counting down from five! Five! Four! Three! Two! One! Winner! Reina! "
Just like that, Reina won another match.
