Chapter 143 Story
"sorry......"
The blood flowed down the Xuanyuan Sword, and finally seeped into the grass. Li Ming seemed to have thrown himself into An Linna's arms. An Linna's hand gently hugged Li Ming, and the two seemed to be in love. A couple, the setting sun spreads on the ground, dyeing the grass blackened by the flames into dark red.
An Linna was murmuring, murmuring, and moving her lips slightly. If Li Ming hadn't been close to her, Li Ming wouldn't have been able to hear these tiny whispers.
"I'm sorry... If I had seen you earlier... I really don't want to go on like this... You know, we are like moths rushing to the fire." An Linna's originally pale face was filled with tears. A flush made her feel more alive. Li Ming had a look of boredom on his face and wanted to break away, but she didn't know where An Linna got the strength from. She hugged Li Ming tightly. , "Thank you, Mr. Li Ming, you are like a candlelight in the dark night. Your arms are so hot and warm, just like that day. Unfortunately, I am just a moth in the dark and can only be Your flame has burned out. Obviously I want to fight for all the good things in this world like them...I'm sorry...right..."
The flush on her face subsided like a tide. An Linna's lips became pale. The body temperature gradually disappeared and became as cold as ice. No matter how Li Ming hugged her, he could not feel her. The life on her body could only be felt by the smoothness in her hands. When Li Ming broke away from her arms, Anlina lay completely on the ground, looking like she was asleep.
The smell of blood on it seemed to represent the traces of An Linna's existence. Li Ming stood up tremblingly, and the Xuanyuan Sword was like a cross that crucified the evil spirit.
What, why are you pretending to be a good person at this time?
"Is she dead?"
Havis' figure suddenly appeared beside him. She didn't know when she woke up. She was holding a lance in her hand. The armor on her body looked slightly damaged, but she was much more energetic.
"..."
"Mute?" Havis was a little surprised and walked towards Anlina. Li Ming didn't know what she was going to do. Maybe it was to help her friend collect the body, or to pay tribute. Li Ming didn't have time to think about it now. so much.
A smell of sparks mixed with cooked meat entered Li Ming's nose.
He suddenly raised his head and looked at the place where An Linna was. Suddenly, a raging flame burned. The flames were two meters high. The shadows of Xuanyuan Sword and An Linna were looming in the flames. It looked like Like a witch who was sacrificed in the Middle Ages.
Li Ming wanted to throw himself into the flames, but Heweis twisted around and kicked Li Ming back.
"What are you doing!"
Li Ming roared angrily, but he didn't know what he was angry about. He had obviously killed the mastermind behind the scenes, right? He shouldn't be happy now, right?
Heweis stopped Li Ming with a flick of his lance, with disdain on his face, "You are so weak now. I don't know why she would like you?"
"Why are you......"
Li Ming's voice was choked with sobs, and his breath suddenly became heavier. Perhaps it was because the smell of cooked meat made him sick, or maybe the smell of blood disgusted him.
"Pretending!"
Seeing him like this, Heweis felt like he was out of breath. He kicked Li Ming away with a whip kick, and Li Ming's body rolled several times on the ground and then hit hard. One was burned to a blackened wood pile.
Maybe he was exhausted, or maybe he just didn't want to get up.
Heweis rushed over, raising the lance in his hand high, as if he wanted to nail Li Ming to the ground, but Li Ming just lay on the ground, just like Anlina just now, and killed him with his neck.
"hateful!"
The lance was stabbed hard into the ground on Li Ming's side, sinking more than thirty centimeters into the ground.
"Why...why do you leave me alone?"
Heweis knelt down to the side as if he had lost all strength. Li Ming just lay quietly on the ground, looking at the darkened sky. The moon did not appear and there were not many stars. After nightfall, the temperature dropped sharply.
It's so cold, just like the old man felt at that time.
Li Ming stood up numbly, while Havis was squatting in front of the pile of white soil in a daze, staring blankly at the Xuanyuan Sword in front of him.
Li Ming stood next to Heweis, who said coldly, "You figured it out, our candle?"
Li Ming's eyes flickered for a while, his lips opened slightly, and after a long time he uttered, "...Don't cry anymore?"
"you......"
Heweis stood up and glared at Li Ming, but this only made her already red and swollen eyes more obvious.
"Do you want to hear our story?"
Havis looked at Li Ming and crossed his arms, while Li Ming sat next to her and nodded slightly.
"Where should I start? Let's start from the time when the Valkyrie Assassination Force was established!"
"The Oceania Division was originally established after the North American Division declared its independence. The purpose was to curb the development of the North American Division. However, even so, the North American Division developed rapidly under the leadership of several executives, while the Oceania Division It did not play a very good role in it, but darkness quickly grew..."
Heweis's face was not so pretty. She squeezed her arm tightly with her fingers until they turned white. She forced a smile and said, "You know, it's obviously a place where the Valkyrie is praised, but those people didn't take it seriously. The Valkyrie is something very important. After all, as long as you pass the experiment and train a little, you can become a Valkyrie. These are the original words of those people. Most of the outstanding and powerful Valkyrie have left here, and We were left to form the current Valkyrie assassination force."
"We help them deal with uncooperative partners, eliminate unreasonable phenomena, and deal with some things that are inconvenient for them to come forward, or... people, even if some of those people are our former teammates, relatives, and friends .In this way, they found that the Valkyrie Assassination Unit is getting better and better. We are like a sharp knife, pointing at anyone with their thoughts, but ten years ago a person stood up, do you know who she is? ?”
Heweis's eyes were shining, and she looked like a child showing off her favorite doll. She looked at Li Ming, expecting Li Ming to say something.
"Is it An Linna?" Li Ming also cooperated with her.
"Wrong answer, it's Arya!"
This name made Li Ming stunned. Heweis's eyes narrowed with a smile, looking a little proud, "Arya is not very powerful, she is stupid, but her golden hair looks like the sun." Generally dazzling, after she joined us, we became more energetic like a stagnant water, and everyone seemed to have found the original intention of becoming a Valkyrie again!"
"If Lord Cecilia is the idol of every Valkyrie, then Arya is the light in the hearts of all of us. However, she still did not escape from this quagmire. In the end, she was still beaten by those bastards... .... But she didn't let it down. She just smiled and told us that she would be back soon, and it would be ten months before we saw her again... Phew——"
Heweis took a long breath, and Li Ming's eyes flickered, "She has become your mission target, right?"
"...Yes." After a long silence, Havis said, "The person who executed Arya in the end was Anlina."
Suddenly Li Ming had a ridiculous feeling, and he rubbed his fingers unconsciously.
"Do you think it's ridiculous?" Heweis smiled, "But the reality is so ridiculous. Not long ago, she was calling us affectionately and joining us, but she quickly disappeared in front of our eyes, just like It was like a firework, suddenly disappearing, shining brightly, and then disappearing. But the one who couldn't accept it the most was Anlinna. After all, Arya was the sister who had been following her. She shouted, but in the end she was killed by her own hands."
"We fell into a deeper abyss later. After the Second Collapse, the Oceania branch obtained part of the ability from the Second Herrscher - the desire for gems. The energy of gems is very powerful, which makes their ambitions suddenly expand. , but they have always been greedy for life and afraid of death, so their target is again on us."
"The desire for gems requires someone to be a carrier, otherwise it will be difficult to use, and isn't the Valkyrie an excellent candidate? In this way, they began to experiment. They first selected those Valkyries that were almost eroded for experiment, and then It’s those people who long for great power, but all end in failure.”
"The experiment has temporarily stalled, but we have never given up. If there are no more experimental subjects, then we will go. Gradually, there will be fewer and fewer teammates, and in the end only a few of us will be left. In the past two years, they have We focused on those children, and the first one chosen was Arya's child - Alice, because we didn't know the father's name, so we gave her a name similar to Arya."
"When we learned the news, Alice's body had been injected with Honkai energy, but we had no way to obtain the inhibitory serum from their hands. After taking control of Alice, Anlina had no choice but to submit to them, even if He has become the strongest among us.”
"So you just used me to make such a game?" Li Ming also connected everything from Heweis's words. In fact, he was targeted from the beginning.
"Actually, that's not the case. You were not the only one who was discovered at that time. There were many people who suddenly entered the country before you and were targeted by us. It's just that they didn't take it seriously at the beginning until someone broke their experiment. That’s when they started to panic, and we started blocking the news to avoid mistakes.”
"What would happen if this kind of thing were leaked?" Li Ming was a little curious. It seemed that when the bishop asked Dr. Maya to study the serum and the Quiet Stone, it didn't seem to have any impact.
"Perhaps they can no longer sit in that position, but maybe they are just transferred." Heweis suddenly stood up, "So we can only find another way, that is, to make this matter accessible to everyone." Do you think the news that the entire Oceania branch’s Valkyrie assassination force has been wiped out is enough?”
Li Ming suddenly turned his head to look at Heweis. He suddenly realized that the Valkyrie he had encountered before was basically just knocked down, and he did not kill him. "Those Valkyrie..."
"It's already dead. We did it ourselves. Sometimes I'm quite grateful to them. At least our hands didn't shake when we did it." Heweiss's face looked a little sad, "And I was pushed out by them. The one who collects the corpse."
Li Ming suddenly fell silent. He could not comment on this matter because he himself was also involved in the conspiracy. This kind of conspiracy was really uncomfortable.
"The Valkyrie who went to the Far East Branch was also sent by you?"
"She is still very innocent. That was her first mission when she joined the assassination force. The darkness here will be taken away with our disappearance. She should just be an innocent Valkyrie!" Hewes said a little bit He said with emotion, and suddenly walked forward and pulled out the Xuanyuan Sword stuck in the ground.
"Now that you know the whole story, it's time for me to leave!" The sword turned around and stabbed straight towards him.
"Wait a minute!"
Li Ming stretched out his hand and grabbed the Xuanyuan Sword. After he realized something, the Xuanyuan Sword disappeared into the air.
Heweis expressed dissatisfaction with Li Ming's behavior of obstructing her, "What are you doing!"
However, although Li Ming was able to hide the Xuanyuan Sword, there were so many weapons here, and one of them could kill her.
Then she focused on An Linna's long knife, but before she could move, Li Ming kicked the long knife away.
"you……"
"Are you just going to leave like that? Don't you want to watch those guys get their retribution and see those guys go to hell one by one?"
Li Ming's eyes stared at her, very seriously. The two looked at each other, but Li Ming said slowly, "You were not chosen by them, they all want you to live! There are only You still remember them and care about them, but if you are dead, then what’s the point of their sacrifices!”
The two looked at each other, and Li Ming just stared into Heweis's eyes. If she made any move, Li Ming would directly stop her, even knock her out!
"Puch!" Looking at Li Ming in front of her, Heweis suddenly laughed out loud. She wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, "Hahaha, you are so funny. You were obviously eager to fight us to death. We looked like we were dying, but now you are making excuses with me and not allowing me to die, what are you going to do!"
Squinting at Li Ming in front of her, Li Ming just stared at her. Heweis seemed to vaguely see the blond figure, seriously telling them that they must complete the mission, follow the Valkyrie Code, and work for all the good things in the world. And the look of fighting.
"What a resemblance!" Heweis murmured, "I seem to know why Anlina chose you!"
Li Ming didn't pay attention to what Havis was saying, but he was slightly relieved after seeing that Havis had no further thoughts of committing suicide.
As for why he wanted to stop her, maybe... it was because looking at her like that was like seeing the old man die and knowing everything was like that!
