Shigure Kirara lost her balance and felt another hand grabbing her long hair.
However, the hand was retracted after grabbing for a moment, leaving only the hand that was holding the calf, which was not released tightly and could not be shaken off no matter how hard it tried.
Without having time to think about the difference between the two, Shigure Qiluo pulled out the strange pistol from his waist and fired several shots blindly based on his feeling. He didn't put away the strange pistol until he caught a glimpse of blue-purple flames burning in the lake out of the corner of his eye.
The hand that was holding Shi Yu Qi Luo's calf seemed to lose its life, relaxed, and sank to the bottom of the lake.
"Haah! Haah...!"
“I almost died…”
After getting ashore, Shigure Kirara took a deep breath of fresh air. Her whole body was wet. The lake water sparkled like small diamonds, and under the moonlight, it shimmered in her blue and white hair.
Her wet hair stuck to her forehead and cheeks, and her blue eyes were like mirrors, becoming brighter and clearer after being wet, revealing a touch of lustrous light.
Her fair skin was moisturized to a silky softness, her slender figure softened and beautifully by the soothing water of the lake, her clothes clinging to her body, showcasing her graceful curves. Water stains lingered on her cheeks, adorning them with a natural blush.
Crystal clear drops of water dripped from the tips of her hair.
"Luckily I had diving training, otherwise I might have suffocated to death in there..."
Shigure Qiluo turned around and looked at the calm lake with lingering fear.
A figure vaguely appeared on the lake, which seemed to be her reflection, but not entirely.
She knelt on one knee on the ground to rest and adjust her state, while her reflection in the lake was standing, with empty eyes, no pupils in them, staring at her expressionlessly.
Shigure Kirara knew very well that this reflection was the ghost that had just tried to drag her down.
The clothes, body shape, and even the strange pistol were copied in the reflection.
The only difference is that Shigure Kirara's hair is very long now. If she doesn't tie it up, the extra white hair will fall to the ground.
And the reflection of myself in the lake had no extra white hair, only long ice-blue hair hanging to my waist.
"Let's get out of here first. We can't delay any longer."
It is now after the hour of Xu, and all the ghosts in the town have awakened. They will walk to the Tongtian Road and move towards the human skin forest on the top of Taixu Mountain.
However, it was not yet July 15th, so the flesh-and-blood ghosts could not reach the top, let alone walk into the forest of human skins.
They just move mechanically according to rules and behavioral logic, without any rationality at all. As long as you don't get close, you won't be targeted.
All I have to do is avoid their route and go around back to the inn to be safe.
Shiyu Qiluo thought so, but when she was about to stand up, she found that her left leg had lost sensation. Shiyu Qiluo lost her balance and fell to the ground with a "thump".
"Ouch...it hurts. Why is my left leg not responding?"
Shiyu Qiluo looked back and saw a deep handprint on her left calf. The flesh covered by the handprint was deeply sunken, as if the ghost in the lake was still holding Shiyu Qiluo's calf.
"Oh no! I'm not going to be crawling around on the ground in a dark and twisted manner like a worm, am I?"
Shi Yu Qiluo gritted her teeth, stood up with difficulty, used her still usable right foot to maintain her balance, and then jumped towards the inn.
I was so tired that I fell to the ground.
After waiting for a long time, the powerful recovery ability he relied on did not work on his left leg that was scratched by the ghost.
After looking around and confirming that no one else saw it...
Then began the dark, twisted wriggling and crawling.
----
In the Australian mining area, Ganesha was shot back several meters by Alicia's arrow, crashing into the rocks behind him and letting out a heart-wrenching roar.
"Xiao Xiaomo, if you keep looking at other girls, even I would be very angry... Look at me more occasionally~"
Alicia reached out and held Li Mo's hand, but when she felt unsatisfied, she held Li Mo's arm again, smiling.
"I'll leave the Honkai beasts in the mining area to you, Ellie."
"Where's the reward?"
Alicia puffed up her pink lips and hinted wildly.
"We'll do it again when we get back. He's an Emperor-level Honkai Beast after all, so we should show him some respect. So... leave his body intact."
"Well, without Xiao Xiaomo's kiss, Alicia was very angry and decided to teach the other party a lesson!"
Ganesha adjusted his posture, and the patterns on his body began to glow. His two ferocious eyes stared at Alishia intently, and he rushed forward suddenly.
Alicia took out her bow and arrow, like a nimble little deer, teasing the clumsy Ganesha.
Every attack of Ganesha just missed the target, and Alicia dodged at the exact moment of the attack, then shot a random arrow at it.
Ten times, fifty times, a hundred times...
Ganesha became more and more impatient. Aliya's attack was not painful, but it was a humiliation for it.
What's more, with hundreds of arrows stacked together, even if the damage of one arrow is small, after being amplified hundreds of times, it is a danger that cannot be underestimated for Ganesha, who has thick skin and flesh.
"Okay, so strong..."
Hua widened her eyes, her pupils shrinking involuntarily, as she watched Ailiya deal with Ganesha calmly, and even looked back from time to time to give her and Mo a bright smile.
It's totally easy.
"Okay, the game is over here, next... please have a good sleep!"
Alicia quickly distanced herself from him. Ganesha had lost the strength to pursue her and was trembling all over, like a human being exhausted after strenuous exercise.
On the other hand, apart from a little dust and dirt on her clothes, there wasn't even a drop of sweat on Alicia's forehead.
She didn't use her full strength at all.
The pink bow in Alicia's hand suddenly showed the afterimage of pink crystal, wrapped in a hazy halo. Then, an arrow, amplified by extremely high concentration of Honkai energy, flew in front of Ganesha in an instant and pierced him.
"Click..."
The sound of shattering glass resounded in the tunnel, and the next second, Ganesha shot out countless bright pink rays of light from her body. Suddenly, Ganesha was torn apart and turned into scattered silicon-based corpses on the ground.
The emperor-level Honkai beast Ganesha was killed without any chance to fight back.
but……
Hua came back to his senses and turned his gaze to Li Mo in front of him.
why?
Why did his shoulder have marks from being torn by the Honkai Beast's claws...
Why was most of his face covered in scarlet blood? His eyes kept opening and closing, and his open eyes were also stained red with blood...
Why is his entire body covered in blood, some crimson, some purple...
Li Mo: "Hua, you look so miserable right now. Why did you give up trying to survive just now? I'm very disappointed in you."
Hua: "Go home...where can we go back to?"
Li Mo: "I never believed the legends about you, the witch, that the Fire Moth chased, but now it seems I have no choice but to believe them. Out of a group of more than fifty people, you were the only one who survived. The Emperor-level Honkai Beast ignored you, who had lost the will to live, and instead slaughtered those who fought back desperately."
Hua: "Captain Hemiko is dead, and my father is dead too. Where can we go back to? We can't go back. If we continue like this, you will die too... You will die too..."
Li Mo: "Witch, your reputation is well-deserved."
Hua: "Liar... You're not strong at all. You were almost dead, just this close... Please, leave me, stay away from me..."
Li Mo: "Alicia and I have left, so you can take care of yourself. If you need anything, you can come to me, but I hope you won't look like this coward the next time I see you, otherwise I will look down on you from the bottom of my heart. Even if you are Hua."
Hua: "Why are you still hanging around?! Get out...get out!"
The absurd conversation seemed like the two of them were performing a monologue, each saying their own thing, or perhaps...
The people who were actually having the conversation have been lost in the long river of memory, buried and obscured by the twisted sand. Only when they reach the turning point of fate do some of their true identities emerge.
His empty heart ached slightly. The horrific wounds, blurred flesh and blood, broken texture, and shattered bones on his body were like a wild beast grinding its teeth and sucking blood. It was manic and crazy, tearing and crushing Hua's intact heart bit by bit.
The flowing crimson and hot blood turned into a sharp knife and pierced into Achilles' heel.
The two seemed to have parted ways.
After Li Mo left, due to some polarized emotions, the super-mutation factor in Hua's body unexpectedly awakened at this moment, and the rejection reaction of the super-mutation factor rapidly weakened.
Garuda's DNA became active, causing a pair of fiery red wings like the phoenix of nirvana to extend from Hua's back.
But so what?
Surviving the disaster did not bring Hua any joy. The testimony of the witch's name, the death of new and old comrades, the betrayal of loved ones, all kinds of suffering were far more painful than death itself.
What does she have left?
What else can she have left?
So what if the super-mutable factor in his body is activated, he is still alone.
"What should I do..."
Her empty eyes stared at the ground, which was as dead as her pupils. The broken key of domination adapted to Hua's super-mutation factor and changed its form into a pair of gloves: the Grip of the Void.
No one recognized or praised him, even Hua himself felt that this pair of boxing gloves was particularly ironic.
Gathered with the blood of comrades, she reshapes the name of the witch.
After Alicia defeated Ganesha, the only survivor Hua was incorporated into the Fusion Warrior Unit with the identity number CM-014, where there were many people with similar experiences as her.
However, most of them kept their distance from witches.
There are also some outliers in the fusion warrior corps who are discriminated against and excluded. Unlike Hua, they are born monsters.
Hua also knew it.
In comparison, she is just an ordinary person who is lucky.
Before activating the super mutation factor, she couldn't even fight against a tank-level Honkai beast; and in the fusion warrior unit, someone killed the Ice Herrscher alone before becoming a fusion warrior. The gap can be imagined.
The eleventh Honkai erupted, and Hua and Kevin teamed up to kill the eleventh Herrscher.
Afterwards, due to strategic considerations, the Fusion Warrior Unit was disbanded and Hua was transferred to the Far East.
After that, there were only thirteen fusion warriors left in the Fire Moth, collectively known as the "Thirteen Heroes".
At Alicia's strong suggestion, each member was awarded a rank and a title called "Seal". These thirteen "weapons" carried the hope for the survival of civilization.
Hua is ranked twelfth and holds the "Floating Life" seal.
Although she didn't know what the meaning of this mark was, she was more concerned about why Mo did not join the Thirteen Heroes, but instead had an independent title - "Abundance".
This was the file that had been finalized before the Thirteen Heroes were proposed.
In the days that followed, Hua was already on the edge of the team, except after the twelfth Honkai outbreak, when he used Yu Duchen to block the minds of everyone in the base, preventing the virus from eroding them, until the Herrscher was sealed.
She hardly ever spoke to anyone, and even if she did, it was only the necessary words to hand over the work.
Gray is the darling of the Fire Moths, and everyone dotes on her. As a marginal figure, Hua consciously avoids getting close to Gray, so as not to bring her unnecessary misfortune.
The person who had the most frequent contact with her was actually Klein, Mebius's assistant, but he only came to regularly check on the progress of Shenyin's transformation of her.
Hua Ben thought that this was all and nothing would happen.
But misfortune still struck.
"Infinite" Mobius artificially collapsed and ate Klein.
Chapter 46 Danzhu (I)
At the final dinner, the candlelight was dim and there were only a few people present.
In order to continue human civilization, Alicia, as a Herrscher, decided to sacrifice herself and make the most sincere wish to this miserable world in order to change the existing trajectory of fate.
Those who were present participated because they believed in Alicia; those who were absent refused to fight because they believed in Alicia.
But that had nothing to do with her. Hua still sat in the corner on the edge, watching the heroes bid farewell to the beautiful and dazzling Alicia.
Only after everyone had said goodbye could she walk up to Alicia and say the same goodbye as the person in front of her.
But strangely, Alicia quickly put aside all conversations with Yingjie and walked up to her.
"Hua, can we talk alone?"
"Ah."
She didn't refuse, and she had no reason to refuse.
Alicia took her to a room where only two people were staying, and held her hands. Her usually lively and outgoing personality became calm.
