The next second, a white light flashed, and Gu Che's calm eyes instantly turned into astonishment.
Good news, the Plague Gem is real.
The bad thing is gone, this thing is buy one get one free.
When the white light faded, what occupied Gu Che's vision was some bright red.
The woman's long red hair, like a stove in winter, fell on her shoulders. She was lying on the ground, but the bright red was as hot as the plague gems inlaid on the armor she wore.
It’s just that the flaming red hair is no longer burning, and the woman falls on the cold ground. She lacks the fiery passion and has more of the beauty of withered autumn leaves.
There was no need for too much introduction, Gu Che already knew the woman's identity——
Wuliang Tajizi.
Gu Che stood up from the sofa, his eyes filled with confusion and astonishment.
To be honest, he didn't know Wuliangta Jizi, so he didn't care much about her life or death. But when he actually saw the red-haired woman lying on the ground, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then he felt lost.
Just a glimpse was enough. The damaged armor and cracked body told it all, a determined, brutal battle, a one-way and regretless battle.
Feeling a little heavy-hearted, Gu Che carefully approached Ji Zi who was lying on the ground, as if he was afraid of disturbing her.
Suddenly, he seemed to realize something, and his originally slightly solemn expression froze, turning into astonishment and disbelief.
He quickly approached Ji Zi, squatted beside her, and confirmed his thoughts.
One more breath!
Without hesitation, he quickly took out the white flower mimicked by Void Wanzang and began to input Honkai energy into it.
The tip of Baihua's gun flashed a soft light, quietly and gently healing Jizi's body. At this moment, Gu Che felt a familiar spatial fluctuation, and when he looked back, he saw Kiana standing aside, covering her mouth in surprise.
Well, life is a light comedy.
Chapter 143: Fishermen never come back empty-handed!
Gu Che once heard a saying:
As long as the possibility of an accident exists, no matter how small the possibility is, the accident will happen sooner or later.
This Murphy's Law, which was widely circulated in the previous life, can be roughly expressed as the bread slices with sauce will always land first, and the queue you choose is always the slowest one.
Two of the indispensable conditions are: nothing is as simple as it seems; and what can go wrong will go wrong.
Gu Che probably understood now.
The Plague Gem is not just a Plague Gem. The time given to you to react is much shorter than you think, and you will still fail when the time comes.
"Teacher Ji... Jizi?!" The white-haired girl still looked shocked, with tears welling up in the corners of her eyes, and her unconfident voice was trembling slightly.
Gu Che made a gesture of silence, pointed at Zhizi, and then pointed at the mimic white flower in his hand.
Kiana quickly closed her mouth, approached cautiously, squatted down beside Gu Che, and stared at Ji Zi lying on the ground with the eyes of a young animal.
Why did Ji Zi appear here? How did Gu Che do it?
None of this matters anymore.
Kiana only knew one fact—Teacher Jizi was still alive and came back alive. That was enough.
Sitting obediently on the side, Kiana watched Gu Che's treatment process attentively without saying a word, as if she was afraid of disturbing Gu Che, or afraid of disturbing Ji Zi whose injury was unknown.
So the girl squatted there and waited, watching the mimicry white flower in Gu Che's hand constantly emitting soft white light, watching time being boiled into a shapeless liquid that wrapped around her, sealed like amber, until the knock on the door outside broke the amber shell.
Gu Che also noticed this. He stopped treating Bai Hua, turned to look at Kiana, and said, "Kiana, could you please open the door?"
The mimicked Black Abyss White Flower is just a mimicry after all, and cannot achieve the same healing effect as the real Key of Creation.
He looked at the red-haired woman lying on the ground and sighed slightly. After his treatment, Ji Zi's injuries had improved, but her face was still pale, and her body was covered with cracks caused by the erosion of the collapse energy, which Gu Che could not treat at the moment.
All Gu Che could do was to save Ji Zi's life, which was like a candle in the wind, and that was all.
Gu Che has done the best he can.
Kiana looked at Ji Zi, then at Gu Che, and saw the young man nodded slightly. Only then did she feel relieved and hurried to open the door.
"White geese, what happened here? The World Snake's Honkai energy detection device reports that your Honkai energy exceeds the limit..."
The door was just about to open, but the voice was heard before anyone appeared.
Kiana looked confused, but Gu Che understood.
Then the door was pushed open, revealing the figure of the person knocking.
A mature lady with long white purple hair walked in from outside. She looked at the white-haired girl in front of her with curiosity with her blue-purple pupils, and immediately felt very friendly.
Kiana kept the door open, staring at Yutu standing in front of her in a daze.
I don't know what was going on in his mind, but when Yutu saw Kiana looking so silly, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He leaned down slightly and put his face close to Kiana's face, and their eyes just looked at each other.
"..." Kiana felt a little uncomfortable, so she looked away and looked at the decorations on the wall, and her eyes never moved again.
Yutu smiled as if his plan had been completed, winked at Kiana, and then walked briskly towards Gu Che, leaving Kiana alone staring at Yutu's back in a daze, wondering what she was thinking about.
To be honest, Kiana's brain was almost at a standstill at this point. After all, you couldn't expect a single-celled Paramecium to process too complex information.
If we use a computer as an analogy, the most appropriate one would definitely be that Kiana's CPU has been burned out.
"White Pigeon, it seems that you have made quite a noise again..." Yutu walked to Gu Che and looked at Ji Zi, who was still lying on the ground, with a slightly curious look.
"Hato, you know me. I like fishing."
"Sorry, I really don't know that~" Yutu smiled faintly, "But why do you mention this? Do you need me to give you a set of fishing gear?"
"You know, fishermen never come back empty-handed. They can catch anything except fish," Gu Che spread his hands helplessly. "As you can see, this is my catch."
"As far as I know, Jizi and the Plague Gem should have fallen into the Quantum Sea during the last great collapse." Yutu's face was full of distrust.
伄"The quantum sea is also a sea." Gu Che said seriously.
"???"
..........................
"I can see that you really have special skills," Kevin looked at Gu Che standing beside him outside the professional medical room of World Snake, his face full of emotion.
"We just separated not long ago, and you've already created a big mess for me."
"First of all, I don't deny the fact that I have special skills. It's better to say that all the cadres of World Snake have special skills, and I am not the only one," Gu Che said seriously. "Secondly, although this job is big, it is an easy job."
"I bring the Key of the Blank to the World Serpent."
As for the disease gem, naturally whoever enters Guanzhong first will be the king. Kevin doesn't care about this. He and Gu Che are no longer simply in a relationship of superiors and subordinates. If you have to say, their relationship is more like cooperation.
The Stigma Project does require all the Herrscher Gems, but now, there is still plenty of time, and there is no need for him to break this unbreakable alliance with Gu Che for a Plague Gem.
What's more, the two of them are trying to improve the Stigmata Plan. Kevin promised that if Gu Che could find a better solution, he could help him when necessary.
The ultimate goal of both of them is also very clear - to expel Honkai from the earth.
"The Blank Key is broken like that, how can it be used again? It needs to be repaired." Kevin held his forehead with his hand, feeling helpless.
"How is Ji Zi doing?" Gu Che noticed Kiana, who had pressed her face against the glass of the ICU, and turned to ask.
When Kiana heard Gu Che ask this, she turned her head and looked at Kevin with a little hope in her eyes.
"It's not optimistic. The Honkai energy has seriously eroded her, but at least she is alive and will not be in danger for the time being." The Jackal pushed open the door of the ward, walked out, and said calmly, "The artificial stigmata is a great burden on her, and she was forced to use the Blank Key. She is lucky to be alive, although I don't know how you brought her back."
Gu Che just smiled and said nothing.
Chapter 144 Chen Tianwu: Leave Anna!
"Dong dong dong."
There was a knock on the door. Otto, who was analyzing the experimental data, stopped what he was doing, looked towards the door, and said slowly: "Please come in."
The knocking stopped, and the door of the bishop's office was pushed open. The girl poked her head out, and her pink pupils looked around the layout of the office curiously. When she saw Otto sitting on the office chair, her eyes dodged for a moment, and she became a little unnatural.
But this awkwardness only lasted for a moment. The next moment, the girl regained her composure. She stood in front of the door, saluted Otto in a slightly exaggerated manner, and said loudly:
"Anna Shaniat, report to the bishop!"
The girl's name is Anna Shaniyat. She is a member of the Shaniyat family, one of the three major families of Destiny, and the captain of the Snow Lotus Squad.
Her long chestnut hair was soft and shiny, and shone like silk under the sunlight. Her pink pupils were gorgeous and bright like gems.
At this time, Anna was saluting with her right hand, and the black beret on her head almost fell off because she exerted too much force. The girl was a little panicked, but fortunately the beret did not fall off in the end, it was just a little tilted, but this inadvertently added a bit of beauty.
There was a hint of embarrassment in Anna's eyes, but it was well hidden.
Anna Shaniat was undoubtedly a very pretty person.
"Well, Anna, don't be so restrained," Otto smiled, his attitude extremely peaceful, like an elder treating a younger person, and said gently, "Please sit down as you like."
Anna nodded, found a seat and sat down obediently, looking at the blond man in front of her with restraint and admiration.
Although Bishop Otto had a bad reputation outside, within the Mandate of Heaven, especially in the Shaniat family among the three major families, he had always appeared as a moral role model, a wise bishop, a wise counselor, and a humble gentleman.
You can say Otto is hypocritical, but it is undeniable that Otto is indeed respected by the Shaniat family, and Anna is no exception.
"Your Excellency, what do you want to talk to me about?"
The Snow Wolf Team was originally on a garrison mission on the Coral Island, but the call from the Bishop forced Anna to temporarily put aside the task at hand and hurried back to the Destiny Headquarters.
At this moment, Anna was feeling a little nervous, but also excited.
This is the bishop! Many Valkyries have always admired him but could only watch him from afar. Now he actually asked to see me directly!
"Anna, do you still remember the day you became a Valkyrie?" Otto suddenly asked.
"Ah..." Anna was obviously stunned for a moment, and then her eyes became a little dazed, as if she was lost in long memories.
"Remember." Anna nodded in response, her pink pupils revealing determination.
That day was the day she had longed for. All her previous efforts were for the moment when her dream came true.
"That day, I vowed to bring hope to those trapped in disaster, to fight for every suffering victim, I will dedicate everything I have to humanity, and to fight to eliminate Honkai at all costs." Anna repeated the oath she made that day with a proud gleam in her eyes.
"Very good," Otto chuckled and clapped his hands. "I have always taken note of your hard work. I have to admit, Anna, you are already an excellent Valkyrie."
Hearing the bishop's praise, Anna unconsciously straightened her chest. The girl was well developed, and just by slightly straightening her chest, her softness was about to burst out, propping up the armor high.
"Thank you for the compliment, Bishop." Anna scratched her head and adjusted her beret, a little embarrassed.
"So after careful consideration, I decided to entrust you with this very important task," Otto said with an interested smile. "For the next period of time, the Snow Wolf Squad will be led by the deputy captain. Anna, you need to go to the designated place to meet someone and temporarily serve as his guard."
Anna's pink eyes blinked, revealing a hint of clear stupidity.
"Who is this person who needs my protection?"
Otto remained calm and composed, with a smile of a strategist who had everything under control on his face, and spoke slowly:
...............
"Are you Mr. Gu Che?"
In the cafe, the chestnut-haired girl asked the black-haired boy who was sitting by the window looking at the scenery.
"Yes, it's me." Hearing the voice, the young man in the seat paused slightly. He turned to the girl, sat up from his seat, and smiled, "Excuse me, are you Miss Anna Shaniat?"
"Hello, Mr. Gu Che, nice to meet you. You can call me Anna." Anna looked at the clean and handsome boy in front of her with curious pink eyes, feeling full of energy.
Is this the person the Bishop wants me to protect? Anna will definitely not disappoint the Bishop!
"Okay, Miss Anna, please take a seat," Gu Che smiled, and waited until Anna sat down before continuing, "Is only black tea okay?"
"Do you have cappuccino?" Anna looked around and made sure this was a coffee shop, then asked tentatively.
As soon as Anna finished speaking, a waiter dressed in professional attire came to their table with two drinks on a tray:
"Sir, these are the two cups of black tea you ordered."
"Thank you," Gu Che casually stuffed a tip into the waiter's hand. In the waiter's happy and grateful eyes, he looked at Anna and said, "Cappuccino is of course fine."
"Please give this beautiful Miss Anna a cappuccino, thank you."
"Okay." The waiter seemed very motivated and his face was full of smiles. He liked the young man in front of him who was throwing money.
"No need to go to such trouble, I can just drink black tea." Anna said hurriedly, but was rejected by Gu Che.
"It's okay, I'll just have two drinks." Gu Che said shockingly.
Anna blinked and didn’t react for a moment: “???”
