Life as a mercenary turned into a girl is a bit difficult

The First Empire…

For some reason, this word suddenly popped up in Custer's mind when she saw Heat Death, especially the long snow-like hair, but no matter how hard she looked into it, she couldn't recall more of it. Forget it, we'll take it slow later. Think about it, now even if he can't directly participate in the battle, he can still provide assistance to them.

Thinking of this, Castor silently closed her eyes, and a faint mist rose from the soles of her feet, sticking to the ground and gradually spreading around.

"Oh? Three? No, four... It's really interesting. I haven't dealt with so many fakes at the same time for a long time." After realizing the identity of the other party and his party, the smile on Re Ni's face became stronger.

"Noble, aren't you also praying for that seed?" Black smoke suddenly rose behind Heat Death, and the blade of the giant scythe couldn't wait to poke out from it. Countless flames suddenly exploded around Heat Death, and the black smoke had no time to form. He was instantly wiped out, but the direction of Eileen's attack was not there.

"Boom boom boom!!!"

In the next second, several shining moon disks encircled the huge wind and waves, and instantly engulfed Heat Death and the surrounding land. Even though the dust, broken leaves, and splashing soil obscured the view, Irene did not stop wielding the giant scythe. , at the last second when she was exhausted, the sickle in her hand was wrapped in thick black smoke and was thrown out by her. Amidst the ear-piercing loud noise, the dense jungle landscape was opened up into a large open space, and the remaining wooden piles and wooden piles were located at different locations. The stones can work together to form an extremely clear cutting line.

And in the center of the open space, a figure covered in flames slowly emerged from the dust.

Chapter 42 Fierce battle between fellow witches 2

"It really shocked me. I am somewhat interested in your peak power. Although it is a fake, it is indeed the best fake..." The combat uniform on his body has been broken into pieces, with only a few pieces left. The cloth can no longer cover the body, and the exposed skin is no longer the original color but a deep red color. The skin and flesh seem to be translucent, and one can clearly see the magma-like lines all over the skin.

Heat Death didn't care about the exposure of sensitive parts, but looked at the giant scythe in his hand with interest, "What kind of metal is this? I can feel that it is an ether-like creation. What is the melting point? What's the hardness? The traitor's The descendants are not so useless."

"Non-element aether carbon steel... I only know the scientific name of the material..." Irene said slowly. Both Heat Death on the opposite side and Poluk beside him were slightly startled. Questioning in this kind of battle is inherently a battle. One of them doesn’t really expect the other person to say anything.What's more, Irene is so cold-tempered.

"As for the names, there are a lot of them...the prototype cutting scythe, GXXS10201, the tyrant's scepter..." Irene suddenly started talking more for some reason, and introduced the opponent endlessly, as if this scythe really caused a stir. Not interested in her conversation, Poluk looked like "Who are you?" He forgot to run his blood to resolve the blisters and burns on his face for a moment, "But my favorite name is...birthday gift."

After Irene's words fell, the black scythe in Re Ji's hand suddenly burst out into thick black smoke. Re Ji, who was in the flames, suddenly felt a chill that pierced the bone marrow from his right hand. When the scythe fell to the ground, it made a sound. After a metal collision, she suddenly found that the palm of her right hand had disappeared, leaving uneven faults on her wrist, followed by streams of late blood pouring out.

"Unbelievable..."

The lack of her right hand did not make her scream or become furious. She calmly controlled her arm muscles and continuously squeezed the blood vessels to suppress the bleeding. Then she looked at the broken part of her right hand and finally showed a look of surprise besides a smile: "So this thing has been storing backlash energy? You actually found a stable container?"

"No...it's not stable..." Eileen reached out her hand. The sickle that fell on the ground seemed to be inspired by some kind of inspiration and immediately spun towards Eileen. Heat Death did not stop this but waited patiently for Eileen. Lin's next answer was to take back her giant scythe. Erin lightly confirmed the relatively complete structure and then said, "Especially in a high temperature environment."

"I see, no wonder I didn't notice the fluctuations in your ability..." After waking up, Heat Death glanced at the flames around her, but the smile soon returned to her face, "You're very smart, and beyond me. Unexpected, but what’s next?”

Heat Death's severed hand suddenly sprouted countless twisted and wriggling flesh buds. They continued to extend and tremble with each other. In just ten seconds, a brand new hand grew out. Heat Death clenched his fist as if to adapt to the new life again. Limbs, a flame gradually rose in the center of the new palm: "You have exhausted all your methods. This small injury is not enough to make me lose my fighting ability. So what should you do next?"

"Me?" Erin raised her brows, her indifferent expression suddenly melted, and she revealed a weird, unskilled smile, "I'm not the only one fighting you."

Is she imitating me?

Seeing Irene's strange expression, Heat Death didn't know what kind of medicine the other party was selling at this time. Suddenly, the roar of a vehicle engine suddenly came to her ears. She turned around suddenly and saw a shabby car. The rotten flat-top car was jolting towards her at high speed. After Irene's attack completely destroyed the rocks and vegetation in the area, the open space she was in became an area large enough for vehicles to drive.

Why didn't I notice it so close?

Heat Death suddenly noticed the weird distortion of the space around the flat-top car. The cracks in the constantly disturbed space were filled with strange white mist. Until the flat-top car completely tore the space apart, all the surrounding scenes quickly dissolved. She Only then was she shocked to realize that the scenes that had surrounded her before were actually an illusion composed of white mist, which had blinded her vision and deceived her hearing.

Another witch's ability?

Seeing that the distance was approaching and he had confirmed the direction, Custer took the wooden branch handed over by Hiiragi and stuck it on the accelerator pedal. Seeing this scene, Hiiragi apologized for not being able to complete He Xiaoyu's instructions to ensure that the vehicle was intact and immediately opened the door. car door.

"Jump!"

Following Custer's order, the two jumped out of the high-speed vehicle, one on the left and the other on the right. After rolling several times under the pull of inertia, they immediately looked for a hidden place to hide.

Seeing the flat car speeding towards Heat Death, everyone's hearts were in their throats, especially Ruoxiang. She suppressed the fear in her heart and prepared to use her ability again in case of emergency. Fortunately, Heat Death's next move was not to evade. Instead, he threw the flame condensed on his hand towards the car approaching him, which was exactly in line with the speculation about his personality.

it worked...

It was a loud noise, a loud noise that hurt the eardrums but could not hear the roar. The white light seemed to rise from the flames, as if a bright sun born from the ground quickly rose into the sky, and it was already too late. A new sun hung up, and a strong air wave centered on the explosion point quickly spread to the surroundings.

The powerful shock wave shattered countless giant trees that had stood tall for hundreds of years. The air waves caused even fist-sized rocks to be sent high into the sky like grains of sand.

This earth-shattering scene lasted only a few minutes, or perhaps a whole century had passed. Hiei Jing raised her dazed head with difficulty, her vision was cloudy, and there was only a constant buzzing in her ears.

Her only feeling now is fear. What on earth did He Xiaoyu put in the car?It was so powerful that it could be detonated with only an open flame without the need for a detonator, and they actually drove these things bumpily along the way?

The fire went out, the explosion dissipated, and the explosion area turned into a dark pit with a diameter of several hundred meters. The scorching air made every breath feel a strong sting.

Everyone stared at the center of the pothole, hoping that the ever-spreading smoke and dust would calm down. Ten seconds...one minute...three minutes...as time went by, it seemed that everything finally ended with that shocking explosion, but An unexpected sound of breaking ground ended everyone's luck.

"puff!"

The dark red palm broke out of the earth, and the incomplete figure emerged from the swollen, burnt, hard soil. The iconic long white hair was no longer so white due to the dirt, and the last strands of his body were completely dissipated due to the explosion. , at this time, every inch of skin on Re Ji's body had turned into a dark red color, and his flamboyant smile finally became obviously sulky.

Surviving the explosion is not without cost. The small half of the body close to the side of the flat-head car was completely destroyed. The thrown-away chest could even see the beating heart deep inside through the lungs and ribs. What came out every time the pump was used was not normal. The blood is a bright liquid that glows like magma.

She is still alive... A long time ago, in that dream that seemed to be a parallel world, Hiiragi also witnessed how Irene survived the missile bombing when she was still a tyrant. She was mentally prepared for this, but when she saw herself She couldn't help but take a breath of coolness when she saw such a seriously injured witch still able to jump around... Oh, it wasn't the scorching air. The high temperature that suddenly broke into her lungs made her cough violently.

This kind of vitality... even for a witch, might it be too exaggerated?

"You guys did a really good job." He used his remaining right hand to pull his body out of the soil. He raised his eyes and looked at the five witches in front of him who were regarded as fakes. "I have lost a lot of data in my database, but I am sure I won't be seriously injured to this extent more than three times, and I'm still fighting a fake..."

The granulation of the wound continued to squirm, and the dark red skin gradually lost its color and returned to its original color. The surging murderous intent instantly locked on one of them: "Illusion is troublesome..."

"Custer be careful!"

"elder sister!"

Heat Death made no secret of the direction of her gaze. Whether it was the illusion that blinded her perception or the fact that she had just driven the exploding vehicle, she had enough reasons to make it her first target. Poluk, who was the first to react, pounced towards Heat Death with a long sword in his hand. The knife flew toward the opponent. Under the control of her ability, the long knife split into countless spikes in the air, drawing different trajectories that were difficult to predict.

"Hoohoho!!!"

There was no fancy counterattack. Heat Death's response was only a ball of flames that enveloped all attacks. When all the spikes evaporated in the flames, Heat Death punched Poluk in the abdomen as he rushed out of the flames.

"Stop...uh..."

Ruoxiang wanted to say something but a mouthful of blood interrupted her words, causing her to gasp for breath as if suffocated.

"boom!!!"

As expected, Poluk's counterattack only delayed for a moment before being knocked away. It can be seen that Heat Death has indeed been weakened to a certain extent. At least the distance that Poluk flew was much shorter than that of Irene before. But so what?Erin, who collapsed to the ground, completely lost the ability to continue fighting. The situation on Ruoxiang's side was also very bad, and Custer simply had no ability to fight directly.

Why is this happening when there is clearly an absolute numerical advantage?What kind of witch is this heat death?

Seeing that the heat was dying and heading in the direction of Custer, Hiiragi had no time to think of a way and could only rush forward...respond to me!If you are really here, respond to me!

Anxiously calling for the black liquid hidden in the body, the long-silent wandering rhythm under the skin, finally the itching feeling stirred in the palm of the hand, the coldness and smoothness gradually gathered in the hand, and the extremely anxious Hiiragi finally got a trace of comfort. .

According to Irene, these things can weaken the witch's ability and bring negative effects to her body and emotions. Maybe she can at least support it until Poluk regains his strength.

"call--"

As soon as Heat Death turned around, the scorching flame storm hit Hiiragi. The black liquid quickly condensed into a shield shape on Hiiragi's body, and then disintegrated the next second it came into contact with the flames, and the running figure was also swallowed up. In this flame.

Chapter 43 The new white hair

This is... the sea?

Everything that his eyes touched was chaos and boundless darkness. There was no light source but he could clearly see his own body. He was floating in the void as if he was being lifted up by some invisible flowing liquid. There was no reference for comparison but he could still see it. You can realize that you are sinking slowly from the slight feeling of weightlessness and the gently flowing hair.

I don’t know why when I saw this inexplicable scene, I didn’t feel any fear or strangeness in my heart. It was as if I had been here before, gained something here... and seemed to have lost something...

Countless tentacles composed of black liquid probed towards Hiiragi from the distant abyss below. Hiiragi did not struggle and allowed those tentacles to wrap around herself, because her consciousness had gradually slowed down, and her originally clear thoughts were about to sink into chaos... …

"elder brother……"

Suddenly, a girl's call came from an unknown distant place. The voice was vague, but it pierced the chaos in her thinking in an instant. Hiiragi suddenly woke up and stared at the humanoid figure that had appeared in front of her at some unknown time. The light group seemed to be somewhat similar to her own. The black liquid quickly faded away as if it had encountered a natural enemy. Hiiragi didn't care about this, because all her thoughts had already been focused on the first time she saw this halo. One glance was filled with all kinds of strong emotions.

Who is she?

As soon as this question came out of her mind, Hiei Jing blurted out a name subconsciously: "Xiao Jing..."

The vague human figure seemed to show some kind of expression called a smile, and then she slowly raised her right hand and gently touched Hiiragi's heart, where a circular pattern suddenly bloomed from under the skin, which was not dazzling. The bright light... that pendant?Hiiragi suddenly realized that there was the part where the pendant had been integrated. It was a scene that should have attracted attention, but it was forgotten in the corner of memory. It was only now that the shackles were opened.

After doing all this, the humanoid light group retreated, and the light on its body gradually faded away.

Seeing this scene, a strong feeling of reluctance suddenly surged up. Hiiragi struggled forward and reached out to grab something, but her body could not move in this void: "Wait...wait a minute! Xiao Jing!"

"Brother...just do what you should do..."

The sound gradually became distant and hazy, dissipating together with the humanoid halo and the boundless ocean of chaos around it, and the light of reality shone into the consciousness from the cracks...

"Ok?"

The weird black mud was engulfed in flames, and the fake witch was more fragile than imagined. Heat Death curled his lips in a bored manner because he regarded it as a potential threat and deliberately increased the firepower.

"You...are a witch from the First Empire?" Seeing Hiiragi Custer submerged in the flames, Custer's heart was severely tugged, but she still maintained a basically calm expression on her face, "What is the First Empire?" ?Why are we called fakes by you?"

"My database is no more complete than yours... How much can I know about me who was forced to sleep after the traitors overthrew the empire?" Step by step closer to Custer's heat death, "I only know that he is my creator, and you It’s just a poor imitation of lost technology, nothing more.”

The First Empire... As expected, the word that suddenly appeared in my memory was useful information...

"Okay, that's the end of the problem. I've spent a lot of money in order to recover my body, so I'll use you as my supplement first..." Heat Death, who had already arrived in front of Custer, stretched out his hand and pinched the opponent's neck. , the flames surrounding her surrounded her.

"you……"

Being restrained made it difficult for Custer to breathe for a while, perhaps because the flames covering her body quickly consumed oxygen. What shocked her even more was that Heat Death's arm seemed to be connected to a bottomless black hole, continuously absorbing her. everything……

"Did you see it? It's not the difference in strength, this is the most essential difference between you and me..." Before Heat Death could say anything, the surrounding flames suddenly became erratic, and the flow of power seemed to be blocked in some way. .

Heat Death suddenly lowered her head and looked down. She didn't know when a pool of black liquid appeared under her feet, which actually made her feel a kind of coldness when she was in the flames. It was not a low temperature, but a chill from the spiritual level, similar to what she had seen before. The black smoke I have personally touched...

"Hiiragi Shizu!"

Custer suddenly exclaimed, and Heat Death immediately followed the opponent's line of sight, only to see a black sludge suddenly rising from the ground where the flames had just swallowed it, followed by a figure that was thought to have turned into ashes in the flames. Figures emerged from the dissolving black liquid.

here is……

It was like waking up from multiple layers of dreams. When she opened her eyes again, she found that she had escaped from the chaos of the sea. The seamless switch between the weightlessness of the suspended void in her consciousness and the reality of her feet on the ground made her He staggered a few steps and almost fell to the ground. He finally managed to stabilize his body and looked up. What caught his eye was the supposed hostile Heat Death and Custer, who were staring at him in unison. Their eyes were All contain the same weirdness.

What's going on here?

Are you wondering about her ability?

No, heat death is easy to say, but Castor has clearly seen those weird black muds...and their eyes seem to be pointing at her. Could it be that there is something dirty on her face?

Hiiragi subconsciously touched her face randomly, and under the influence of her movements, a strand of hair fell from her forehead to her eyes. She suddenly realized that the hair tie that bound her hair fell off at some point, and the low ponytail on the back of her head Then it spread out. It must be because the hair has grown a lot because it has not been trimmed for a long time... Huh?

She thought about quickly gathering her hair to prevent it from affecting the subsequent battle, but when she saw the color of the hair in her hand, all her movements came to an abrupt stop. Is this her own hair?

The reason why such a question arises is because the hair that comes into view is extremely unfamiliar—white?

The same white as heat death.

The unfamiliar hair color made Hiiragi feel confused. There is no doubt that her hair color should be the black color that most people in the wasteland have. This has not changed before and after the transformation, but why did it suddenly become Like this?Could it be that strange dream?

The hazy dream was fragmented in her memory, except for the lingering pain in her chest that was extremely profound... She seemed to have lost something extremely important...

"who are you?"

At this moment, Reji suddenly spoke, interrupting Hiiragi's confusion. The smile gradually disappeared from her face and was replaced by a serious expression, "I don't have any data about you, so why are you mixed up with these fakes?"

About my data?Mixed with fakes?Hiiragi could clearly feel the secret change in Heat Death's attitude towards her. Is there any connection with the change in her hair color?

"Forget it..." Noticing the confusion on Hiiragi's face for a moment, Heat Death shook her head without waiting for a reply. Then she released her hand that was holding Castor and the flames on her body rose again, "It seems like you You don’t know more than I do…then there’s nothing more to say.”

"So there's really no way to talk?"

"Oh?" Heat Death was stunned for a moment and then suddenly sneered, "You don't seem to be as sincere this time as you were last time."

Has it been discovered? !

Hiiragi was startled but still activated his ability. In the next second, countless sticky black mud rose from the ground around Heat Death.

The black liquid that had been silent for a long time was awakened again... Since waking up from the dream, Hiei Jing has found that she has become more and more closely connected with the power hidden in her body, and those hazy wandering veins have become clearer. If she was originally with There is only one thread connecting the black liquid, so now she is actually in contact with the black liquid.

As soon as she regained consciousness, Hiiragi began to mobilize those things to deploy her offensive, firstly to verify her control over them, and secondly to prepare for the attack of Heat Death.

Going from unfamiliarity to proficiency is a process that cannot be accomplished overnight, but the situation in front of her does not allow her much leisure to explore slowly. Because of this, Hiiragi wants to attract Heat Death's attention from other aspects, but it is obvious that this roughness The method did not work in the face of Heat Death, who was experienced in combat.

The black liquid's siege attack had already dodged before heat death occurred, but Hiiragi didn't place any hope on this attack. As long as it could get Custer out of trouble, it was enough.

The condensed black liquid gave up the pursuit and blocked Custer. After reacting, Custer immediately retreated away from the heat death. The white mist on his body was filled with the intention of hiding himself in the illusion.

weird……

The certain feeling of heat death brought by these black liquids made her very uncomfortable. It was a kind of instinctive resistance and disgust, and she was also wary of this weird liquid. She already knew that her ability would be destroyed once it came into contact with her. Weakened until suppressed, her mental level will slowly be consumed by negative emotions and she will lose her fighting spirit.

**A few probing flames condensed at the fingertips and shot towards Hiiragi Jing. Although they exploded on the condensed shield wall and were annihilated, this time the black liquid did not evaporate in the high temperature like before, but instead The explosion caused by the flames was weakened a bit.

Coupled with the previous serious injury, Heat Death knew that he could not delay it any longer. Other fakes would soon join the battle, which would only make his situation more troublesome.

"Boom boom boom!!!"

The explosion generated from the soles of his feet turned Heat Death into a cannonball and shot toward Hiiragi. The tail flames dragged out behind him drew a dazzling light in the dense forest.

"puff!"

"puff!"
