In the second week, they are full of malice towards me

After destroying the evil dragon, like the original witch, the body of the evil dragon turned into countless fragments of memories of the "old days".

Only zero can do this.

As a mechanical species, the characteristic of the mechanical species is that it observes and records everything around it every minute, and uses these collected data to imitate and learn, so that it can improve itself.

So in a sense, Zero is the best historical encyclopedia, a collection of stories.

Dreams can excavate people's deepest memories, and the same is true for Ex-Machinas.

These fragments now come from the deepest part of the zero database.

And in the light and shadow of the fragmented memory, the pictures of the past that are being presented at this moment belong to Jiuyou's real past, a world where "ashes" exist, a...
The story of the encounter between the dragon girl and the man in gray robe.

puff!

The blade pierced the heart, and the gladiator in front of him fell powerlessly with fear and despair.

The clean and neat battle did not make the arena resound, but caused dissatisfaction among many people in the audience. After all, this kind of instant kill scene is good to watch once or twice, but if you watch dozens of games, you will get tired of it. No one wants to watch a game where the result is known and there is no suspense.

However, the dragon girl in the middle of the arena didn't care about it. In other words, there was nothing in this world that she cared about. The only reason for her to be alive was to fight.

Putting the knife back expressionlessly, and stepping over the gladiator's corpse in the pool of blood, Longnu's heart was already numb. This was the one hundred and third gladiator who died under her knife.

The audience in the arena hated the dragon girl, and when the dragon girl returned to the rest room belonging to the gladiators, all the gladiators inside also cast hatred and hatred at the young dragon girl.

It wasn't because of Tang, Tang had already become a thing of the past. Under the deliberate control of the behind-the-scenes organizer, Tang was forgotten by everyone in less than half a year.

Now these new gladiators are only afraid of the dragon girl, because the dragon girl is like a killing machine, a killing machine without self-consciousness, which has become the knife used by the organizer to "borrow the knife to kill".

After Tang's incident, the organizers learned a lesson and increased their control over the gladiators.

Whenever there is a popular gladiator who is about to take the lead, the organizer will immediately arrange for him to fight against the dragon girl.

As for the result, it was just like the last game.

So the current Dragon Girl is equivalent to the dark cloud over the heads of all gladiators, a sharp sword hanging around their necks.

But they have nothing to do, because they can't beat them.

No, don't say they can't fight, no one can even hurt the dragon girl, so the only thing they can do, maybe like now, in the lounge, express their hatred with their eyes.

After all, Dragon Girl, who doesn't care about anything, naturally doesn't care about their hatred at all.

However, in the rest room this time, Longnu felt something different from usual. Among the hateful eyes of many gladiators, there was another very plain, somewhat "examined" look. Sight.

The dragon girl subconsciously looked towards this distinctive source of sight.

I saw there, in the corner of the lounge, sitting a man who covered his whole body under a cloak.

Such an outfit would be very strange to put anywhere.

Like a weirdo.

Soon the Dragon Girl looked away, continued to remain silent, and walked out of the lounge without looking at the gray-robed man again.

This is.
Her first encounter with Ashes.

After this memory fragment ended, Jiuyou, who had just cried a lot in Liao Ji's arms, with tears on her face and a red nose, couldn't help but clenched Liao Ji's clothes a little bit, obviously because she ignored her at that time and felt Very remorseful.

"I'm sorry, Lord Ashes, the me back then, me"

"I guess you must have looked down on me at the time and thought I was too weak." Seeing Jiuyou faltering, looking like he wanted to explain but didn't know what to say, Liao Ji said it first with a smile.

Afterwards, Long Niang was also rather naive.

If it were Sshutia, she would definitely argue a few more words, but Jiuyou's straightforward nature made her nod her head directly.

"My memory of that time is very vague, but I remember that I just had one thought, hoping to find someone like me back then."

What Jiuyou said was very subtle, but Liao Ji could tell that what Long Niang hoped was for a strong person to appear, just like how she personally defeated and killed Tang in the arena, and killed her too.

This is the relief that the dragon girl was looking for at that time.

Soon came the next memory light and shadow, which was from the perspective of the dragon girl, witnessing that the gray-robed man was really just like her back then. One of the biggest rookie dark horses.

Naturally, such people were also noticed by the organizers, and soon after, the gray-robed man and the dragon girl met again, and this time it was no longer in the lounge, but in the arena.

Seeing Jiuyou here, she concentrated all her attention, because she will never forget that day.

It was this gray-robed man whom she ignored and regarded as weak, who really defeated her in the arena duel that followed.

It wasn't that the gray-robed man was hiding his strength. On the contrary, when she really entered the battle, she sensed that her strength was indeed far greater than that of Mr. Ashes back then.

The real reason for her defeat was that she lost in her most confident martial art.

That's right.

Jiuyou clearly remembered this battle, all her moves seemed to be seen through by Lord Ashes, even when it arrived, Lord Ashes seemed to know what she was going to do next, and made corresponding defenses in advance.

It was the first time that Jiuyou felt that she had no strength, but it seemed to hit the cotton.

The strength of life on the bright side of Lord Ashes may be terminated directly with only two of his own knives, no more than five knives at most, but the problem is that Mrs. Ashes can always deal with it delicately, either by using strange props, or by using special power.

Just like that, I saw the dragon girl in the picture, under the shocked eyes of many gladiators, spectators, and organizers, she continued to entangle with the gray-robed man for a while, completely lost the cleanliness of countless competitions in the past neatly.

Even with the passage of time, Dragon Girl went from having the absolute upper hand at the beginning, to gradually balancing the power, and finally, she was completely at a disadvantage. The gray-robed man consumed a lot of strength, and she was a little exhausted.

But looking at the man in gray robe, although no one can see clearly his face is covered by the cloak, but from the attitude of the man in gray robe, it can be seen that there is no slack in the slightest. On the contrary, he seems to be more vigilant and tense?
Liao Ji, who was hugging the dragon lady, was also recalling the details of the "boss battle" in the game that was still fresh in his memory.

It's no wonder he wasn't nervous at the end of the battle.

After all, at this time, the boss is going to use his nirvana.

Sure enough, seeing that she would be consumed to death if she continued like this, the dragon girl took the initiative to distance herself from the gray-robed man, and then the familiar movement came. The momentum has reached its peak, and the gray-robed man must be killed to end the game.

That's right.

It was this trick that made Liao Ji outside the screen sigh incomparably.

In the past, whether it was Jiuyou as a BOSS, with blood volume and attributes that were several times higher than the player's, and various small skills and tricks, he could try every means to find a way to break the defense, but this move was the only one that would kill him.
Liao Ji still vaguely remembered that it took him three SLs in exchange for the success of the "Scout Technique", and let him know the skill description of this move.

To put it simply, [Zhan Chitong] will be judged according to the strength of both parties. With Liao Ji's level at that time, there is a 99.99% chance of being instantly killed.

This move ignores any defense, avoids damage, and ignores the resistance effect of props. With the resources in the game at that time, there is no way to prevent it.

So Liao Ji's only solution is to gamble.

Bet on the 0.01% possibility that the "Dragon Girl BOSS" will fail to release its skills.

fortunately.

He is a stubborn man.

If you can't do it once, you can do it twice, if you can't do it twice, you can do it three times, five times, ten times, fifty times, a hundred times
This is why Liao Ji will have such a "deep memory" of this battle.

Even if it was just a game for him at the time.

Liao Ji didn't do anything that day, the only thing he did was to slack wildly in front of the screen, and was killed by Jiuyou with a single knife, so he just loaded the file and came again, again!Come again! !

Fortunately, it seems to be the thousandth and 300th SL. Liao Ji can't remember clearly, and he finally succeeded.

I saw that in the picture, the momentum was full, and the dragon girl who was about to cut out the "flawless sword", but suddenly, it seemed that something went wrong.

In just a few seconds, instead of being able to cut out the flames, it looked like a deflated ball. The powerful momentum just now was gone forever, as if it had suffered some backlash.

The gray-robed man seized this opportunity, and amidst the incredible screams of all the people in the arena, successfully defeated the dragon girl in one fell swoop, and put the sharp blade on the neck of the dragon girl who was kneeling in front of him.

"So Jiuyou, who were you then?"

Under this scene, Liao Ji asked a little curiously, the game is just a cold value, Liao Ji really wanted to know why Jiu You failed to release his skills in reality.

And Jiuyou's answer made Liao Ji startled for a moment, but then he showed a look of "no wonder", as if there was really only this reason.

"Master Ashes, at that time, for some reason, I seemed to see the phantom of my mother behind you."

"So at that moment, I recalled the original memory, fear and fear filled my heart, lost the blessing of Wu Nian, this knife is no longer flawless, and I can't swing Chitong."

"Think about it now, Lord Ashes, is this mom helping me?"

Jiuyou murmured to Liao Ji.

After all, it is precisely because she failed to swing this knife that there is a follow-up story, and therefore there is Jiuyou, and there is the Ash Emperor who saved the world.

Liao Ji touched Long Niang's red hair in his arms.

is this?
It doesn't seem to be the case. After all, Jiuyou doesn't know, but he knows that Tang Ke didn't show up to help him in the thousands of SL (loading and restarting) before that. His role was directly given by the dragon girl. It took a second.

but.
"Of course, Aunt Tang must have been moved by my attachment to Jiuyou, so she came here to help!" Liao Ji chose the most romantic explanation.

But Jiuyou obviously couldn't understand.

Long Niang raised her head in a daze, looked at Liao Ji's face, and asked in a low voice, "Master Huihui's obsession with me?"

"Hmph, in fact, I was in a place you didn't know, Jiuyou, and I had already fought thousands of battles with you at that time, so I know you very well, and you are not necessarily better than me. Get to know the dragon girl Jiuyou better!"

What Liao Ji didn't expect was that after hearing his romantic speech, instead of being happy, Jiuyou's eyes turned red, her beautiful purple dragon eyes were covered with water mist, and she was about to start crying.

The reason is also very simple.

"Then, did Lord Ashes have been killed by Jiuyou thousands of times? I, Jiuyou, deserve to die, me."

Uh.
Liao Ji really didn't expect Jiuyou's brain circuit to be this way. He looked at the crying bun and dragon lady with a sinful expression, and quickly comforted him with a winning streak:
"How is it possible! You underestimated me too much! In fact, you have lost a thousand times! You didn't hurt me at all!"

"Then why did Lord Ashes come here thousands of times?" Jiuyou didn't understand Liao Ji's hilarious meaning, and asked honestly.

"Because... because of coughing! Losing gladiators must be severely punished and disciplined! For an evil dragon girl like you, one training is not enough, it must be punished thousands of times!"

Liao Ji was also questioned until he had no choice but to make such a bad move.

After hearing this answer, Jiuyou nodded as if suddenly enlightened, and accepted it. As expected, Long Niang whispered: "Master Huihui, you are so perverted."

Liao Ji pretended not to hear and twitched the corner of his mouth.

However, Jiuyou soon stared straight at the young man again, and lay down next to Liao Ji's ear with a smile through his tears, just like the lively and cute little dragon race girl with a bit of face control, secretly whispering: :
"Now the perverted brother Liao Ji, Jiuyou. I like it even more!"

Cough, cough, cough!

Unlike a certain pink-haired succubus, Jiuyou has always been good at straightening the ball.

Seeing Long Niang blinking at him, Liao Ji felt a little embarrassed, so he quickly changed the subject and returned his attention to Zero's memory fragments.

In the picture, after defeating the legendary dragon girl and putting the sword on the dragon girl's neck, deafening and crazy sounds came from the surrounding audience.

"Kill her!", "Kill her!!!", "Kill her!!!"

After the absence of Tang, the arena has returned to bloody, and every audience is looking forward to the gray-robed man slashing the sword to end the life of the dragon girl.

Even Long Nu herself was the same, at that moment she seemed to have finally been liberated.

At that time, there were two choices on Liao Ji's screen.

【Kill her (execute action)】

Or

【"The turbidity is our real enemy" (speech dialogue)】

Which one to choose, Liao Ji, is definitely not a matter of thinking. Corresponding to the scene in reality, the gray-robed man did not swing down, but instead put away his weapon, and just left a word for the dragon girl before turning around and leaving.

"Zhuo is our real enemy."

Amidst the dissatisfied shouts and curses of the audience in the arena, the words of the gray-robed man echoed in the mind of the dragon girl, and she stared blankly at the back of the gray-robed man who let her go.

At that moment, Longnu's expressionless face was finally touched a little. She seemed to recall some words of her mother, and she seemed to understand why she saw her mother's shadow on the gray-robed man.

At that moment, the dragon girl moved her body, as if she wanted to chase after her.

But soon, from the place where the arena exited, there were two figures who looked like men in gray robes who had been standing there long ago, waiting for the triumphant victory.

One of them is dressed as a nun, and the other looks like a housemaid.

Looking at the followers that the two gray-robed men already had, the dragon girl realized that she could not leave the arena. She is a gladiator here, and she has been branded so that she cannot leave. It is impossible for the organizer to let her go. go.

The glimmer of light that had just brought Dragon Girl to the darkness seemed to follow the departure of the gray-robed man and his two followers, which also made Dragon Girl wrapped in darkness again, her eyes dim and lifeless.

until
that night.

Not the arena, but the entire Gulasai base, in just one night, was replaced by a gathering place called "Ash".
Completely captured.

That night.
fire rays
Light up the night again.

I've been a little busy these two days, so the chapters are together, and I feel that the reading will be smoother, and there will be double updates in the future.
