Returning from the abyss

Chapter 414
Everything is returning to stillness, like the sweltering and gloomy weather before a storm.

Lu Ning stepped onto a piece of broken ice, which was the last thing left after the shattered ice statue of Taining. She pulled out the golden crown from the ice bone in the center, and put it on her head.

"There's not much time left for us."

Only Maoyou is still following Lu Ning, and everyone else is taking advantage of the quest to do it now. The bone tester is weak. As long as he seizes the opportunity, any kill count quest can be easily completed.The Spring Equinox and Autumn Equinox are not the bosses who can attack the entire garden. If necessary, just kill the Autumn Equinox, and the Spring Equinox will not form too many obstacles.

At this time, Maoyou didn't take advantage of it, which really didn't match his usual impression.

"You have been following me, it seems that you have something to say to me?"

"Ah... isn't it still the same? It was the two of us at first, and it's still the two of us now. It hasn't changed." Maoyou scratched his head, showing his usual sly smile, "I just think it's safe to follow you, and Can we truly be comrades in arms?"

"Forget it." Lu Ning turned her head, looked at Maoyou and said, "Then my dear comrade, can you tell me the truth?"

"what?"

"As a crow, what is your purpose? I don't dare to keep a person with unknown purpose by my side at the end, and my ability is not that great."

Maoyou folded his arms and nodded: "So that's the problem."

"...Is this question not important?"

"Important, but didn't you show some knowledge and experience that is slightly inconsistent with your background many times? I thought you were implying me that you had recognized my identity."

"I'm warning you." Lu Ning narrowed her eyes.

"I also gave feedback, do everything that should be done according to your instructions, and get some extra money by the way. Am I not clear?"

"I don't know why you follow orders so simply."

"Oh...haven't you been on the third level for a long time?" Maoyou sat down on an ice block and looked at Lu Ning with interest, "Otherwise you wouldn't be so unconfident."

"confidence?"

"My vision is unmistakable. Some people are born with strong judgment, and this ability has gradually been integrated into every word and deed as they grow up. It's just that you don't seem to realize it, but I can see it. Otherwise, I wouldn't choose to follow you."

"Third-tier tourists..."

"That's human too." Maoyou slightly protracted his tone, "You'll know after you go back and get to know it well. Tier [-] also has society and human relations, and it also has advantages and disadvantages. My expertise does not lie in understanding the overall situation. Grasp, so either find a way to complete the task enough, or follow someone who can see clearly."

"How can I trust you?"

"We never give trust to people who meet for the first time." Maoyou grinned, "You can consider what to ask me to do, you know what is the key, and I know what is very dangerous to me, that's enough. We all have our own judgments, right?"

Lu Ning thought for a moment, then nodded, this is the first time they have reached a cooperation.

"In that case, let's go get a loot."

She jumped off the ruins and took two steps, but didn't hear footsteps.

"That... help me, it seems to be frozen."

At this moment, in the corridors of the Garden of Summer, the equinoxes are breaking apart.

Huo Zhaonan fell to the ground covered in blood, and Mayuri's expression rarely became serious.Takaya Kanzaki looked at the woman who was flying brown-red debris in front of her in panic. A forest of fallen leaves was rippling on the golden-red gradient gauze dress like late autumn, with a peaceful smile on her face , with her hands lightly wrapped in front of her body, like a noble girl walking in her backyard enjoying the afternoon.

"We can't win! Mayuri! Helena is not here! We can't beat A-rank monsters! Why hasn't she dealt with the enemy yet? Why hasn't she come to us!"

"Are you a three-year-old child? You have to find your mother when you encounter anything? Use your brain!" After shouting this sentence, Mayuri couldn't help coughing up a mouthful of blood. She raised her hand and found the Wrinkles were already appearing, and the ends of her own hair were starting to turn gray.

Dry up, grow old, decay.This is the power possessed by the autumnal equinox, which is completely different from what autumn is usually thought of, and even this power is being eroded together with herself.But if this continues, the three of them will be dead before the autumnal equinox destroys themselves.

At this time, the shadow under the feet of the autumnal equinox unfolded, forming a cross shape, and elongated and extended to the surrounding walls.

"She's using that trick again!"

"Don't be surprised...cough!!"

Mayuri knelt on the ground, she didn't have much strength anymore, she was still angry at this time, and she will always be angry, even began to doubt whether the decision to train Kanzaki was correct, whether such a person really wanted to become one of them .

"Damn it, if Miss Helena didn't mean it, I would have let you die..."

"Sorry, sorry, but A-level... how can we deal with A-level? Items, weapons, wow!"

Kanzaki took a sudden step, those shadows were suddenly shattered, and the area covered by the shadows had become a tattered state. Kanzaki, who had suffered a lot before, knew that if he accidentally stepped on it, he would lose it due to rapid aging. Strength, Mayuri was unable to continue fighting because of this.

"Idiot... there won't be any reinforcements." Mayuri still held her head up, glaring at Kanzaki, "This is your graduation exam, do you think it might take a lifetime to train something like this? It has to end anyway! And now This is the best ending! Either you win, or you lose and everyone dies together!"

As she spoke, she reached out and pulled a small piece of rusted iron off the broken metal floor.

"Mayuri!"

"2 minutes."

The iron scraped across the aging skin, and blood flowed out.

Immediately, Kanzaki's whole body trembled, and his eyes fell on Qiufen again.The only human adjustment device in the team is on him. If Mayuri doesn't replace her body parts in time, she seems to be...

=================
On the other side, Levanska stood at the intersection leading to the branching corridor from the Garden of Spring. Under his outstretched palm was a corpse. Duanmuxi and Fu Junnian, who had just gone through a hard fight, looked at him in disbelief.

"Levanska? Really you?"

"Ah, indeed." Levanska smiled, "Save point, I should inform you in advance to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings. After all, it happened before that bone testers pierced my shell. "

After speaking, he reached out and took out the scroll from the arms of the servant of discernment who was killed.

"How is the star accumulation of the two of you?"

"Coming."

"It's still two."

The two answered one after another.

"Very good." Levanska unfolded the scroll, glanced at the map that Lu Ning's people had studied before, and nodded, "Sure enough, the memory is not completely reliable, and we need to confirm it."

"Lewan, are we going to leave next?" Fu Junnian asked directly.

"I'll see you two go first."

Duanmuxi nodded, but Fu Junnian heard the overtones: "Aren't you going to leave?"

"The captain will be the last to disembark." Levanska placed the scroll in a conspicuous position next to the discerning servant, "I won't leave until all our teammates have left."

"It's all now, why stick to the original promise?" Duanmuxi shook his head, "It's very unwise for you to do so."

"Just treat it as a rule of life, not to mention that the last issue was originally related to me, and I have to stay and deal with it." Levanska said with a chuckle.

"Then I'll stay with you." Fu Junnian patted his chest.

"This is your freedom, but it can be dangerous."

"Dangerous? Hahaha..."

=================
"Actually, I want to ask a question."

After sending the investigator away, Si Fangle turned to Cheng Wuling and said.

"speak."

"In the beginning, you sent Domeki to conduct a survey of the entire garden. Later, when we asked if we were the strongest, you seemed to... said no? Then at that time, which two groups of people do you think should be stronger than us? If Ming is really in the mastermind's camp, there will be one of them."

Cheng Wuling nodded.

"What about the other one? Is it Nemorphes, who had a powerful mercenary force at that time? Or Helena? Or that pair of siblings who cooperated tacitly?"

"... Levanska."

"He?" Ji Changhao screamed from the side, "Didn't he lead a team to develop in an all-round way? Why..."

"As long as he is here, he is the strongest." Cheng Wuling glanced at Ji Changhao, "Of course not referring to his team, but referring to him. The fundamental reason why Levanska is so helpful is that he doesn't have to care about himself at all If it is measured by the level here, as long as he obtains something that can be called a weapon, it is an E-level."

"But they suffered heavy casualties."

"His 'help' has its own standards, very similar to... training soldiers, he will give all the methods of survival on the battlefield without hesitation, but whether he can properly use this knowledge to survive is not something he can control .Although this kind of combat power is still not enough to deal with D-level and above, but his brain is not bad."

"If you arrange it now..."

"What do you mean now? According to everyone's obvious strength, I am naturally the strongest here, but after counting the number of people, I haven't been using Domeki to monitor the garden. Who knows what backhands each has left?"

Si Fangle sighed.

"It's still your usual planning method."

"There are three and one is missing, and the plan is uncertain. It's not a bad thing to leave some accidents in the plan." Cheng Wuling glanced at Si Fangle, "For example, I never asked you what level you have reached."

"Alright alright……"

===================
When Lu Ning approached Polaris' courtyard, she saw the vernal equinox.

"This guy is here..." Maoyou also caught a glimpse of the figure surrounded by vines. Compared with the momentum of the winter solstice, the vernal equinox seemed much weaker. At least there were no other protective objects around except those vines.

He turned his head, saw Lu Ning's expression, and immediately shouted: "You don't want to try it, do you? This thing is on the same level as the Winter Solstice! There are only two of us now!"

"I know."

While saying this, Lu Ning stretched out her hand and opened the door.

"But I need a breakthrough."

"Be sober! We don't practice any kung fu, how can we break through? That's a real A-level!"

"The people who stand at the top now should be able to fight against A-level. If I can't even do this, then the duel is just a joke."

Lu Ning drew out the metal staff and drew a word [lock] on the door, then closed the door.

"Hey! Lu!" Maoyou yelled.

"Maoyou, the difficulty of the crisis is increasing, we must let our growth speed catch up."

"Then you won't let me in!?"

"You are accumulating those [-] stars, use this time to accumulate enough." Lu Ning smiled, "There may be a big move in the future, we don't have much time to continue accumulating."

Maoyou raised his eyebrows, and finally nodded vigorously.

Lu Ning walked towards the vernal equinox, and the crescent moon and the short gun fell into her hands.After the device was lifted, she also scanned the blunderbuss and the bamboo tube. The names were [Wooden Mang] and [Jushi] respectively. It was obvious where the weapons came from.It's just that she doesn't know who killed Mushi.

When she was about 20 meters away from the vernal equinox, the other party finally turned around. Her whole body was covered by rattan, and only a pair of eyes looked out from the gap in her head. The light group, the expected rattan whipping or underground assault did not happen. Lu Ning stood at this distance and touched his heart with the hand holding the short gun.

It was beating at a high speed, which made her feel that her whole body was full of vitality, and even excited, with a feeling of omnipotence.

However, from the information purchased from White Feather, she has already learned about some methods of fixing the vernal equinox in advance.Just like the cross ice picks that come with the winter solstice, the vernal equinox also has its own unique defense methods.

Resurrection—this is the name used by White Feather. The battle with the vernal equinox will be affected by the active energy around her, and she will become tireless, energetic, and courageous. This state will not be relieved even if she is far away later.In fact, it is impossible for human beings to maintain this state forever. If they leave the vernal equinox, they will die suddenly within an hour due to this excessive consumption. Injection produces "evolution of life".

Evolution is not a bad thing from a natural point of view, after all, as a life, it will become stronger, but for a person, it is not you.

Lu Ning took a deep breath of the air full of life, and continued to move forward.

The time required for evolution is about 5 minutes, which is also the limited time for killing the vernal equinox.

Death was dancing in the palm of her hand, and she finally faced the thing she feared the most in the active choice for the first time, but the state of high life force injection had made her feel no emotion of fear.

"It's the worst and best form ever."

The moonlight shines at the end of the words.

　Happy Chinese New Year everyone!During the Chinese New Year, please spend more time with your family and enjoy the wonderful time of the New Year~
