The Final Story of Miss Weird
Page 180
Among the three teammates who were attacked, Eve was the most seriously injured. Even though Luo Ling had made full preparations and used Puppet Rumor's first ability "Proliferation" to repair herself as soon as possible, the loss of vitality was real.
At this time, the Iron Fist maid lady's hair had some gray hair, there were some wrinkles at the corners of her eyes, and her skin had become more dry and yellow.
The strange ability is not without price, this is because Luo Ling was able to restrain the instinct of Puppet Rumor and did not devour Eve's flesh and blood. Otherwise, under normal circumstances, after being treated like this by Puppet Rumor, she would basically lose half her life.
Miracles and magic don't come for free.
Of course, this kind of aging is not permanent. As long as you spend some time to recuperate, the body will be able to recover. However, during this period of time, Miss Eve can only become Aunt Eve, or even Grandma Eve.
The essence of Puppet Song is still "death" rather than "all spirits", so Luo Ling has no way to replenish Eve's vitality.
"At least it's nothing serious." Luo Ling breathed a sigh of relief and felt a little relieved.
Under the secret attack of a ninth-order awakener who uses his power, being able to save one's life is a blessing, and expecting to be unscathed is just a fantasy.
The injuries of Cen Xiangyun and Lu Manqing were not worth mentioning. Lin Jianming must have deliberately held back. Cen Xiangyun was attacked by the backlash of his power and his inspiration collapsed. It was scary to see blood coming out of all his orifices, but it was not fatal at all.
Find a truly "panacea" path for treatment, then rest for a few days, and you should be able to recover.
Compared with Cen Xiangyun, Lu Manqing's condition was slightly more serious, but he just fainted due to excessive blood loss.
Lin Jianming is indeed a professional killer, his attack was very precise. Given the extent of Lu Manqing's blood loss, it was an injury that he could recover from with nursing.
The physical fitness of the awakened ones is still much better than that of ordinary people, including the ability to recover from injuries.
but...
While checking Lu Manqing's injuries, Luo Ling inadvertently saw something unusual. A flash of silver light caught her eyes, coming from near Lu Manqing's ankle.
Luo Ling squatted down, stretched out his hand and pulled at Lu Manqing's trouser leg, his expression instantly became a little serious, "This is... Wait, how could Lu Manqing have this thing?"
Lu Manqing was wearing an ordinary metal ring on his ankle, but Luo Ling couldn't help but feel that it looked very familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere before.
She hesitated for a moment, took out a ring from her hair, and compared them, her expression slightly gloomy, "Exactly the same... How could Lu Manqing have something belonging to a gypsy girl?
"Oh no, the gypsy girl already knows her father, Old Man Ji..."
If you know him, you might be able to gain favor from the "Sky Speaker", just like the plant Fiona got, and you can also give it to others.
The ring on Lu Manqing might have been given by Old Man Ji.
However...Luo Ling always felt that Lu Manqing was mysterious at times, and her abilities did not seem to be in the "All-Spirit" path.
Of course, Lu Manqing would not be weird. Luo Ling’s judgment on this point was the most accurate.
But no matter what, at least for this team, Lu Manqing's feelings are sincere enough.
After treating his teammates' injuries, Luo Ling was troubled about what to do with them next.
Needless to say, Elsa could not continue to stay in the "company". Since Lina had already obtained a kingdom of God, Elsa, as an apostle, already had a place to stay.
Among the starry Victoria, Luo Ling and Lina are the absolute masters.
A few others...
Cen Xiangyun and Lu Manqing both have important identities. Many of Cen Xiangyun's family elders are P8-level specialists of the "company", serving as managers in several offices, and there is also a P9-level office director.
It can be said that Cen Xiangyun has been tied to the "company" since she was born, which is also the reason why Lin Jianming did not kill her.
On the other hand, Lu Manqing is just as good as Cen Xiangyun. Before his abilities were abolished, her father, Old Man Ji, was one of the best awakeners of the "Other Shore" path besides the "Sky Speaker".
Even if Old Man Ji was disabled, her mother was still the P9-level director of the Wellington office and her closest immediate relative, all of which were enough to allow Lin Jianming to save her life.
Luo Ling had no intention of doing anything about these two teammates. They had already seen the scene of "Luo Ling being killed", and even the murderer Lin Jianming saw it clearly.
The most important thing is that Luo Ling does not need to worry about their safety, as their elders will naturally take care of it.
In addition, if both Cen Xiangyun and Lu Manqing were taken away, it would bring more trouble.
The question is...what should Iron Fist Maid Lady Eve do?
Although Eve is the daughter of the Grand Duke and a proper young lady in the present world, it is ultimately a worldly identity and does not have much impact on the world of awakeners.
Unless she was the emperor's daughter who could influence a region like Odetta, or she was in a foreign country with delicate relations, if little Odetta had really died, it might have caused a lot of unnecessary changes.
It is even more likely that it will directly affect the layout of the "company", which is why Frick, the traitor of the "Hunting" team, wants to protect little Odetta and leave.
"Eve..."
There seemed to be a slight gleam in Luo Ling's eyes.
At first, she was wondering why Lin Jianming chose to use the final blow on Eve instead of her or Elsa. It was not until she saw Lin Jianming take out the "Purgatory" larva that she realized why.
It’s not because Eve is a greater threat. For a ninth-level awakener like Lin Jianming who can use the "power" sacrificial vessel, there is not much difference between the seventh-level awakeners and those below, and they can basically be killed with one sword.
Killing Eve first was just to activate the "Purgatory" larvae faster and re-form the hatchery barrier.
...is very similar to the situation back then.
Judging from this situation, the "company" has most likely launched a boundary collapse plan similar to that of the year to avoid being irreversible after certain mistakes and to be able to erase such mistakes by means of boundary collapse.
I don’t know what kind of mistake the “company” made back then that led to the “forbidden” disaster “eternal life”.
Later, the "Pioneers" intervened again, and the artist went through a promotion ceremony, but in the end, the "Company" turned the tables, remedying its mistakes by collapsing boundaries, interrupting the artist's promotion and severing his future.
Until he went to Jiangcheng County, the artist still had a lot of doubts about the "company".
Now that the plan has been restarted, Luo Ling has to shift his focus from "Pioneer" to "Company" and re-examine the game in Victoria Chess to see how many chess pieces both sides have hidden.
"To be on the safe side, Eve can't go back."
Luo Ling stretched out his hand, and the mycelium spread over Eve's body, dominating her flesh and blood.
Of course, Luo Ling had no intention of turning Eve into someone as weird as Lina and making her a part of herself.
For most awakened people, weird things are scary monsters.
Even at that time, Luo Ling resorted to this desperate measure in order to save Lina's life. She was determined to save her no matter what. She was even prepared that Lina would always hate her in the future when she performed this measure.
Eve's injuries were not serious enough to cause her to survive, so Luo Ling certainly could not act on his own in this situation.
He couldn't reveal his identity in front of Eve either. After all... weird is weird, and human is human. The gap between the two is huge.
Not everyone is like Lina and Elsa, able to accept the fact that Luo Ling is weird.
So Luo Ling used 丨 Domination to maintain Eve's physical life, while keeping her consciousness dormant until the lost vitality was restored.
Otherwise, if Eve went back with her current gray-haired appearance, it would probably cause a lot of trouble for both Luo Ling and Eve herself.
Regarding the case that led to Lin Jianming's death, the "Company" would not miss any clues.
But...it would seem that something would go wrong if Eve was just taken away without leaving any trace.
Luo Ling thought about it, and soon a... somewhat weird idea came to her mind. Even when she herself thought of this method, her expression became a little subtle.
"How about I play Eve?"
Through this experiment, Luo Ling has almost mastered the technique of using "hyperplasia" to create people. Even Elsa, who is closest to him, can hardly tell the real Luo Ling from the fake one.
Now, Eve's body is completely in Luo Ling's hands. It is not difficult for Luo Ling to use this body as a template to replicate a new Eve. It only takes a little time to do it.
Needless to say, memory and emotions will be revealed through "reading". As long as it is not the kind of relationship between Stasha and Alyssa, the fake Eve played by Luo Ling will definitely be able to be indistinguishable from the real thing.
In this situation, Luo Ling can even keep a close eye on the movements of the "company" and protect the other two teammates at critical moments, which is simply killing two birds with one stone.
There was no problem with the objective conditions, but... Luo Ling felt a little too subtle when he thought about having to play the role of a friend he was familiar with and then mingle among other friends.
"But apart from this, there seems to be no other way..."
Luo Ling scratched the silver-white Chang'an, and the messy hair quickly combed itself into a neat shape when it fell down. After thinking for a while, Luo Ling sighed deeply.
"Whatever, at worst I can just pretend I'm cosplaying as a maid lady."
"What?"
Elsa, who was tidying up the clothes of her unconscious teammates to prevent them from exposing themselves, raised her little head with a question mark on it.
"nothing..."
Luo Ling curled the corners of his mouth, raised his hand and began to create a one-to-one replica of Eve. Even the sword wound was faked perfectly, leaving only the last breath.
At the same time, Luo Ling also made an Elsa figurine - it would be destroyed later, as proof that Elsa also died in the assassination, so there was no need to be so elaborate, just make some torn clothes or something like that.
When Luo Ling was making the doll, Elsa also curiously poked her head out, and then saw the shoddy version of Elsa lying on the ground. She reached out curiously to touch it, and then pinched her arm.
"Wow, that's amazing, this is exactly like me..."
Elsa smiled, and then she watched the crude version of herself explode. Blood and flesh almost splashed on her face. She froze in place.
"Ah..."
How come it exploded with a bang when I just poked it slightly?
Elsa's brain continues to crash.
"Move aside, Elsa," Luo Ling didn't know whether to laugh or cry when watching this scene, "I'm dealing with the situation."
It has to be arranged more carefully to lead this play to the ending that the "company" expects.
After setting up the murder scene, Luo Ling sent the sealed Eve to a nearby house. The mycelium of Puppet Rumor would continue to nourish her life until she fully recovered.
It must be said that in Luo Ling's hands, the puppet rumor ability of the "Silence" path is used more effectively than that of the "All Spirits" path...
"almost."
Luo Ling clapped her hands and looked at her work with satisfaction.
The curtain call of "Death of the Twintails Squad" was completed with flying colors!
At the same time, Elsa finally came to her senses and looked at herself being blown into pieces on the ground with a look of aggrieved face.
"Is everything taken care of?"
At this moment, a familiar cold voice sounded, accompanied by the clanging sound of armor colliding.
"enemy?"
Elsa subconsciously became alert, but when she looked up, she saw a pile of armor parts falling to the ground with a crackling sound, and a blonde woman she had never seen before, wearing only simple cloth clothes, walked towards them.
Hearing this familiar voice, Luo Ling was slightly startled, and quickly nodded.
"Well, everything's fine."
She was about to turn around to look at the person who came, but was unexpectedly embraced in a broad and turbulent embrace, with a slight softness against her back.
Elsa's eyes widened instantly, as if she saw something incredible.
"Lina..."
Compared to Miss Knight, Luo Ling in the form of the White Witch is indeed too small, looking like an exquisite doll that can be held in the palm of one's hand.
"Don't look back, Miss Luo Ling, just let me hold you like this for a while."
Lina's breath gently fanned on Luo Ling's neck, carrying a hint of blood and dust. There was a hint of tears in her voice, "I haven't seen you for a long, long time. Perhaps for you, our meeting is not far away."
Luo Ling opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but no matter how many words came to her lips, only a soft sound remained.
"Ah."
Luo Ling knew that the speed of time passing in the Kingdom of God was not fixed. It was very likely that Lina had not seen him for a long time, not just a few years, but could be decades, or even... hundreds of years.
The body that Luo Ling gave to Lina was enough to sustain eternal life, and the time they had been apart was long enough for Lina to seize a kingdom of God.
Now this starry Victoria.
After an unknown amount of time, Lina finally let go of the delicate and tender silver-haired girl in her arms and said, "Okay, Miss Luo Ling, you have repaid the hug you owed me for all these years."
"Hmph, when have I ever owed you anything?" Luo Ling snorted in dissatisfaction. She stood on tiptoe and stretched out her hand, rubbing Lina's face vigorously. "This is how I repay you."
Lina let Luo Ling pinch her face but just smiled.
"You... who are you!"
Elsa, who realized that the heavy and sad atmosphere had dissipated, finally seized the opportunity. She came over and looked at Lina warily. Even she had never hugged Miss Luo Ling like this.
Although she is also small...
However, Elsa sensed something unusual from Lina, a sense of danger.
It’s not that Lina is dangerous, but... there is some unspeakable danger in the relationship between himself and Miss Luo Ling.
"I?"
Just as Lina was about to answer, Luo Ling said, "By the way, Lina, send these people back to the real world first. Business matters are more important."
