He even built a temporary crude canal in an instant, and began to artificially guide the blood that overflowed Ella's obstruction to other directions.
Chapter 50 After the Disaster
The figures walked back and forth on the high ground and the city walls outside Nod.
Hyde's blond hair lay limp on the top of his head, covered in sweat and dust.He leaned against the wall tiredly and sat down slowly. Looking back, even in the most dangerous experiences in the past, he had never been as embarrassed as he was now.
He didn't look up at Ling, just said to himself.
"One-fifth of the lower city was destroyed, and the houses in the area around the castle were covered in rivers of blood. Our actions were still a little slow. According to the roster, more than 1000 people died."
Ling originally wanted to say "you have done a good job", but the words couldn't come out of his mouth.
In theory, their actions saved 1000% of the population of the lower city, reducing the disaster to a considerable degree.But after all, more than [-] people died in the disaster. Perhaps if they moved faster, more people could be rescued?No one said "you have done a good job" in a flat tone. From the standpoint of the deceased, this sentence is undoubtedly equivalent to contempt for their lives.
So Ling can only say in the end.
"You've done your best."
Hyde buried his face in his dirty hands.
"Remember the little girl in the tavern who yelled to learn magic with us? I couldn't find her in the lower town...she wasn't even ten years old."
This is perfectly normal, in a catastrophe of this scale, death comes with no regularity.Even the mighty Foul Blood would have a hard time surviving within the coverage of the Blood River.
Duncan prevented a few knights from maintaining order in the lower city, and there was not much chaos here. The face of the commander of the guard knights was familiar to every lower city resident.What's more, they have long been used to obeying big shots with filthy blood.
Having said that, Hyde's eyes became sharper.
"We should have been faster, but Duncan's new party knights, you have also seen... the last ones that can come in handy are what they call dirty blood pariahs, at least some of them took the people in the lower city Residents also serve as companions."
"Strictly speaking, they are not companions but the same kind. They have not completely subverted their own cognition after transformation."
A piece of bread and a bowl of vegetable soup were handed to him.
It was Victoria, who was thin and thin. She had changed into a black and white coarse cloth nun's dress after a long absence.To be honest, this is more in line with the temperament of a girl than the dirty gray robe or the dirty blood dress Fittily put on her on formal occasions.
Residents in the lower city completed their evacuation in a short period of time and moved to higher ground, which was not enough time for them to carry food and salute.Fortunately, the Xinghui Pavilion where the envoys are located is not within the coverage of the Blood River, and the few carts of food that Stephen carried can barely meet the emergency.
Ironically, the out-of-control area after the queen's death is concentrated in the main castle.Compared with the main fortress, which was strengthened into a steel barrier for floating, most of the other areas suffered less damage.
"There isn't much food left today, share among yourself."
Victoria pointed to the bottomed pot. She seemed to have done this kind of work in the past and looked quite skilled, and she made a fairly strict plan according to the date and the number of survivors.
Ling shook his head,
"I'm not hungry...compared to this, what do you mean by what you just said?"
Victoria turned her head and her tone was as flat as discussing today's dinner.
"Miss Fittilly and I have said it many times, but you still believe in dirty bloods naively. They don't see people as the same kind at all, Secret Party, Holy Blood Party or those old nobles who can work Livestock, food, or pets for entertainment? It doesn’t make any difference at the end of the day.”
"Would you lay down your life to save a cat, a cow, or a loaf of bread?"
A voice came.
"Tell me more in detail."
A silver-haired figure appeared among the people. Ella looked at Victoria,
"You said before that you will tell all the things you and Fitili are hiding, such as why you appeared in the basin in the middle of the wilderness at that time."
Victoria nodded.
"I hesitated to continue to hide this matter, but now ... there is no need, what we want to do has been achieved."
"In that basin, the other queen "Christina Royce Lilith" you saw is our preparation. The meaning of her existence is to kill Queen Enoch and kill as many high-ranking dirty blood species as possible. "
"Now the nobles in the upper city have been ruined. Although Christina didn't do it, it doesn't make any difference."
She smiled contentedly, yet creepily.
"Miss Fittilly will be the new queen."
"The filthy blood who have been severely injured will be powerless to resist Miss Fittilly. She will slowly kill all the remaining Enoch nobles, and finally go to destruction with me."
"We filthy monsters will be history from now on, isn't it a perfect ending?"
Victoria's voice was obviously fanatical, and it seemed that this idea was the only reason for her to continue living.
Half of the piece of bread in Hyde's hand fell to the ground. He raised his head in disbelief, with astonishment, confusion and strong hostility flashing in his eyes.
"So you guys did all this? Why?"
"The Vilebloods have already signed a treaty with us, and they will be bound by the Wizards Union after they ascend—"
Victoria cut him off abruptly.
"You don't understand dirty blood at all. Instincts cannot be simply bound by a contract. Once they take root in the material world, everything in Nod will repeat itself. I never want to see someone like me born... . . it was so painful."
Hyde growled angrily.
"That's why you and your master killed thousands of civilians! You say you are for mankind, but you kill more people than Enoch's filthy blood!"
"It's a necessary sacrifice—"
-
With a crisp sound, Victoria almost soared into the air, and then fell heavily to the ground.The few finger marks on the face quickly swelled up, and gradually disappeared with the dirty blood ability without leaving any traces.
Ella's voice was as cold as a block of ice.
"To save more people? A necessary sacrifice?"
"Do you know what the two of you made in the basin? Node floating up will allow that monster to successfully descend on the material world, and countless people will die for it. Who are you going to ask to stop a person walking on the ground?" God, you, Fitili? Or the savior you once believed in?"
She pointed to the Enochites, huddled in the shadow of the city wall, with fear and exhaustion on their faces.
"Open your eyes and look, this is what Fitilli and Nils did, do you still think they are right?"
Chapter 51 Partners
"Miss is... correct. It was just an accident. Miss must be right!"
Victoria staggered back a few steps, whispering as if trying to convince herself.
But Ella did not let Victoria continue to escape, an inexplicable emotion was smoldering in the girl's chest.She held the latter's wrist and asked aggressively,
"Even if you are not used by Nobold, your direction is still wrong! Since there are Fitili in this world, you, Duncan and even Nils...the future of dirty blood may not be Unchangeable. Fetili Hajie was originally going to be the next queen, and she should be able to survive for a long time as long as she wants, so why don't you try to lead dirty blood to make changes by you, human nature will definitely lose to instinct And desire?”
Ella added mentally.
Of course, it's too late to say anything now.
"You...what qualifications do you have to say that! You are not a dirty blood, what can you understand?"
Victoria felt that the other party's words seemed hypocritical and ridiculous. She had never experienced the desire and throbbing that came from the depths of her blood. That terrible thing even shattered the pious belief she once thought she had.
At the moment when the wish has been fulfilled, she is not afraid of the other party killing herself.
But Victoria was stunned suddenly. She felt that the silver-haired girl who was pinching her wrist seemed to have turned into something extremely terrifying. This was not because she was afraid of death, but because her life instinct was trembling.
【Of course I am qualified...】
The other party didn't speak, but the voice entered Victoria's cranial cavity in an incomprehensible way.
The girl's originally soft voice became hoarse and deep. Her eye sockets were no longer human pupils, but burning pale flames and constantly rotating crystals of the same color. Large cracks opened on her porcelain-like skin, exposing the inner flow. The burning heat and extreme cold.
With just a glance, Victoria instinctively avoided her sight.The huge flow of information poured into her brain made her feel dizzy for a while, and she couldn't help but want to vomit.
Curse of foul blood?Bloodlust?The horror that this silver-haired girl endured was a thousand times greater than that!
Ella finally understood the origin of the emotion in her chest, it was not anger and hatred, but deep sorrow.Because she was afraid of her inhuman instinct and identity, she finally chose to go to self-destruction, which was very similar to the cowardly her she used to be.
She vaguely saw her own miniature in the sad ending caused by the other party, and recalled the hopeless sense of powerlessness.
So you also have to stand up, don't surrender to that sad fate, don't choose the most despicable escape, let me see the possibility of success... The girl shouted in her heart, but in the end she just remained silent.
Suddenly, she let go of her hand.
"Think about it for yourself, I don't have time to waste on you now... No matter what the ending will be, I will at least give it a try."
She patted Ling and Hyde.
"Let's go and see Professor Adolf."
When the three of them walked side by side, the atmosphere on the city wall seemed less heavy, and Ella's eyes stayed on Ling's profile.
Maybe the current situation is more dangerous than the end of the snow country, but she has a wonderful sense of peace of mind. Of course, it would be better if the shadow is also rescued. When they are all together, there is nothing at all It is impossible to face.
-
Shadow felt very aggrieved, she was lying on her back on Fittili's lap, counting the wood grains on the dome of the room.With only one head left and unable to move freely, she couldn't help but recall the days when she was in the Eye of Hermes.
What a blessing it is to have limbs that move freely, and what an irresistible treat to taste different kinds of food.
Compared with the thousands of years of being imprisoned in the narrow darkness, the short days of walking on the earth in human form seem like an unreal dream.She hasn't had time to experience it for a while, and now she has turned into this ghost again.
Thinking of this, she turned her head and bit Fittily hard.
The taste is salty and astringent, the smell of sweat and dust.Thinking back, they seemed to have not bathed for a long time, and even the dolls that did not need Xincheng's metabolism felt that they had become quite dirty.
But fortunately, this sad feeling is better than not feeling at all.
"Why did you...why bite me?"
The voice behind him sounded a little weak.
"I want to see if you are still alive. It has been a long time since you were absorbed by Norboard for the second time."
Shadow spat, although she didn't have any saliva, and the lubricant and digestive juice that was made as a simulation had already completely dried up.
