Offer your allegiance to Chaos!

The next moment, Ms. Sicily jumped up, and after landing, she happened to protect Ashe in front of her.

Using blood as a sword, she blocked Ashe's deadly second arrow.

Ashe looked up, seeing Miss Sicilian look so angry for the first time.

Chapter 88 A teenager named Ashe decides to love

Of course, Ms. Sicily would be extremely angry. She didn't care about besieging herself, but she couldn't tolerate someone attacking her lover in front of her.

And Ashe's mood fell to the bottom along with the crossbow bolt. He didn't know where the crossbow bolt came from, but there was no doubt that whether it was Longmen, the Restoration Alliance or other foreign forces, one of the external forces he could rely on was already became his enemy.

Damn, is he that much of a thorn in the side?Even though Ms. Sicily, the real enemy, is in front, they still have the intention to get rid of him along the way?short-sighted!

Ashe sighed in her heart, but she also understood what the enemy was thinking—after all, they didn't know the horror of the Book of Khorne. In their eyes, Ms. Sicily had already become a turtle in her urn, and there was nothing wrong with solving Ashe's confidant trouble by incidentally.

"You are courting death!"

While Ashe was thinking, Ms. Sicily had launched an angrily counterattack, raised her hand high, and a blood sword escaped away. Amid the sound of piercing the air, the blood sword split into two and then into four, expanding to hundreds of people in a blink of an eye. Only tiny arrows rushed in the direction of the crossbow arrows, and they didn't engage in any precise strikes, it was completely indiscriminate bombing.

Literally indiscriminate bombing, under Ashe's horrified eyes, where every drop of blood and arrows landed, the blood exploded like a super-high-concentration high-explosive, and fell on the ground to blow up a large pit of gravel When it landed in the stands, the broken copper and rotten iron were directly demolished, and the source of the crossbow in the northeast was instantly turned into ruins.

Laplande's eyes widened when she saw it, and she trembled in fright—Ms. Sicily did keep her hands. If she had been caught off guard by this trick just now, she would probably have been turned into pieces by now.

In the Book of Khorne, the strongest thing is not just the bonus to the basic attribute value, but the mysterious innate ability.

"Which trash is there? Get out!" One move turned the enemy's hiding place into ruins. Ms. Sicily was still not relieved, and while protecting Ashe, she growled murderously.

I don't know if the besieging army was frightened by the momentum of this move, or for some other reason, the follow-up offensive did not start, and the wasteland fell into silence again.

Ashe blinked, feeling something was wrong intuitively, but he couldn't tell what was wrong for a while, and before he had time to think carefully, another voice came from the stands.

It was the exclamation of an angel.

"Texas—!!"

what?

How can it be?

At this moment, things finally completely exceeded Ashe's expectations. His complexion suddenly changed, and when he looked far away, he saw a scene that made his heart tremble:

Above the stands, between the chest of Texas, there is a crossbow bolt piercing through it!

——No, it's impossible!

The moment she saw that scene, Ashe's first reaction was that her sensory system had malfunctioned, or she had fallen into some kind of illusion origin stone skill deployed by the enemy soldiers—how could Texas be attacked?She should be the safest one among all the people in the stadium. At this moment, no force on any side has the motive to kill her!Ms. Sicily disdains to use this kind of method. In the eyes of Longmen or other city-states, she is meaningless. The Zionist Alliance is even more her supporter. To put it bluntly, she is a puppet that only has some value under certain conditions. Who has the need? kill her?

But be it the retina or the eardrum, all reliable senses are clearly telling Ashe that Texas is in danger.

When Texas slowly fell to the ground, Ashe finally gave up the so-called calm thinking, he rushed to the stands desperately, and the one who rushed faster than him was Laplande. He picked up Ashe by the collar and pulled him to run.

Behind, is the Sicilian lady who froze in place.

After calming down a bit, she also noticed that something was wrong. After activating the observation ability bestowed on her by the Book of Khorne, she was shocked to find that there was no so-called besieging army, and there were no corpses in the ruins she shot. Those who have run away.

And in this sneak attack, there were only three arrows from beginning to end, and to be precise, the first two arrows were all decoys, and only the arrow aimed at Texas was the killing move.

In other words, was this an attack specifically aimed at Texas?

What are you kidding?At this juncture, who would want to kill her?

Ms. Sicily's first reaction was exactly the same as Ashe's. She couldn't understand the reason for this scene.

But in any case, things have already happened, she hesitated for a moment, and walked slowly towards the stands.

In the stands, Ashe and Laplande had already arrived, and Angel Neng was holding Texas in a panic like ants on a hot pot. When he saw Ashe coming, he cried like he was grabbing a life-saving straw. Said: "Quick, Ashe, think of a way, this arrow seems to be poisonous—"

Texas has fallen into a coma, her face is pale, her lips are bloodless, and the arrow piercing out of her chest has a faint black light.

"It's three centimeters away from the heart..." As a soldier, Laplande judged the location of the arrow at the first glance, and said decisively: "I can't pull it out! I need to go to the hospital for treatment!"

Angel Neng also came back to her senses, she had the backbone, she stopped panicking, quickly took out her mobile phone, and contacted Wei Yanwu directly - he had left a direct number for the three of them four days ago.

Ashe didn't hesitate even more, and immediately activated the "blood food" talent used for Lapland's treatment of ore disease, biting on the jugular vein of Texas, and began to filter the blood for Texas of toxins.

As the first mouthful of blood entered, Ashe's face turned pale, a huge sense of numbness penetrated his whole body, the feeling of dizziness hit, and his heart almost stopped beating, but he didn't stop, and increased the speed of filtration.

However, the toxicity of this poison was far beyond Ashe's imagination. After half a minute, he felt his first near-death experience. He probably died on the spot.

If Ashe is still like this, it is conceivable that Texas himself, who is really facing the poisonous attack, is in a precarious situation.

Eat blood, can't solve the problem.

Texas's breathing became weaker and weaker. At the beginning, she still had an unconscious struggle with frowning, but now, her pulse and heart rate began to drop.

At this rate, she would die within 3 minutes at most, and even with Ashe's time still, it would only be 4 minutes.

At this moment, Ash really panicked.

It is not only the oppressive effect of the toxin on the brain, but also the fear of the imminent death of Texas. He almost lost the ability to think calmly, and all his brain cells were concentrated on how to save Texas.

Apart from scheming and wisdom, all he can rely on is the Book of Slaanesh, but there are only a few talents in the Book of Slaanesh. Blood Feed is the only healing ability. Other than that, only [World Modulation] has A similar effect may be achieved.

But the world modulates...

Ashe gritted his teeth tightly, and the hints that came to mind when he first tried to use world modulation to treat Ms. Sicily in bed a few years ago came back to his mind.

——The progress bar symbolizing the unknown ending reached [-]% in an instant.

Yes, the only cost of world modulation is the growth of the progress bar, and at that time, Ashe's progress bar was still 30%, and even his undead body only used 33% of the progress bar, he was full of hope at the beginning A paralyzed patient spends less than 3% at most, but unexpectedly, the progress bar is directly pushed to full.

Is it the peculiarity of the Sicilian lady herself?Ashe also thought about this possibility, but later, when he went to the hospital, he tried to randomly find one or two patients to solve their diseases through world modulation, but the hints he got were all [-]%.

In other words, he can save Texas, but he will usher in an unknown ending—equivalent exchange is the truth of the world. He doesn't know what will happen after the progress bar reaches full capacity, but he is sure that it will definitely not be a good ending .

But now, is it time to hesitate?

Unlike the Sicilian lady who had hope of recovery at that time, Texas is now on the verge of death, and she can't afford to wait for 3 minutes.

Ashe didn't know how many seconds he hesitated, ten seconds?Or half a minute?But when the pulse of Texas was so weak that it was about to go out, Ashe finally calmed down, closed her eyes, and turned her consciousness to the [World Modulation] column——

However, at this moment, the voice of Ms. Sicily sounded.

"Don't worry, she won't die."

Ashe opened her eyes in astonishment, but saw the silver-haired woman coming forward, squatting down, and pressing Texas' heart with one hand.

The next moment, Texas' body trembled heavily, and the bleeding from the wound on his chest miraculously stopped, and instead, traces of pitch-black liquid gradually oozed out.

"I controlled her blood circulation." Facing Ashe's astonished eyes, the silver-haired woman shrugged: "It seems that Khorne is better than Slaanesh when it comes to playing with blood."

"..."

Ashe didn't know what to say, he was relieved, and sat down on the ground, looking at the silver-haired woman with a complicated expression.

"You...will save Texas?" Laplande also looked at Ms. Sicily with disbelief.

"I just don't want my pet to be inexplicably in debt." The silver-haired woman snorted coldly, and said something that only Ashe could understand.

That's it, the Book of Khorne...does it have the ability similar to world modulation?

Ms. Sicily had an extra hole card. This was bad news, but Ashe didn't care about it at all. He just let out a long breath and said softly:

"Thank you."

……

……

Three hours later, Longmen Municipal Central Hospital.

"The patient's condition has stabilized and he will wake up tomorrow at the earliest."

With the terrifying blood control ability of Ms. Sicily, the toxin problem has been solved, and the hospital has only carried out more detailed dialysis procedures and wound sutures. Residual effect, still unable to wake up.

Wei Yanwu did not show up, but asked the special envoy to visit and said that he was investigating the ins and outs of the assassination in detail - he had just signed a peace treaty with Ms. Sicily, and as an old friend of Ashe, this incredible assassination took place in the land of Longmen It is undoubtedly a disgrace to him.

As compensation, the Central Hospital was surrounded three times in and out by the Guards Bureau. Wei Yanwu's own guards were directly assigned to be on duty around the intensive care unit where Texas was located, led by Police Officer Chen, and even a fly could fly. do not come in.

Of course, Ashe didn’t fully trust Wei Yanwu, and Dexas’s near death made him almost a shadow of a snake, except that he and Laplande stayed by Dexas’s side all the time (including during the operation) In addition, he also entrusted Ms. Sicily to send all the assassins under her command, led by her secretary Angela, to monitor each other with Wei Yanwu.

Yes, it's ironic to say that the assassins brought by Ms. Sicily are targeting Texas and Lapland, but now they are going to protect her... But what Ashe can trust most now is actually Ms. Sicily is on the side. Ms. Sicily has her own pride. She wants to kill Texas by herself. She doesn't bother to engage in any conspiracy and tricks. The Zionist Alliance has not been eliminated, and she will not tear herself apart with Ashe now. , will never move Texas' mind.

In fact, it is safest for Ms. Sicily to protect Texas herself, but... In various senses, Ashe cannot make this request.

However, there was no need for him to make a request. The Ashes were by Texas' side, and it was naturally impossible for Ms. Sicily to leave him half a step away.

Just like the scene at this moment.

In the intensive care unit, Texas lay quietly on the hospital bed, and Ashe sat on the chair at the end of the bed, staring directly at Texas for a long time.

On the left and right of the bed, Laplande and Ms. Sicily were sitting respectively. The eyes of the two occasionally intersected, occasionally converging on Texas, and occasionally looking at Ashe together.

The air is a bit subtle, like a harmonious paradise, visiting relatives and friends, and like swords and swords, full of murderous intent.

The energy angel sat in the corner, pretending to read a book, not daring to participate in the eye-to-eye contact between Laplande and the Sicilian lady.

As the center of the "battlefield", Ashe naturally felt the fierce confrontation between the eyes of the two, but he was a little tired at the moment, and he had no intention of mediating the struggle between the two, and just quietly stared at the sleeping face of Texas.

His mood at the moment is very complicated.

Perhaps the old saying is true, only when you lose can you know how to cherish. Until today, after watching Texas walk on the edge of life and death, Ashe suddenly realized, and really understood, "Losing Texas or Anyone in Lapland", what does it mean to him.

During these three hours, he thought a lot.

There are really many, many, about Texas, about assassins, about the Zionist Alliance, about the Sicilian lady, about myself and the so-called "what is love"...in these three hours , He sorted out almost everything that happened these days, straightened out his thoughts, and integrated distracting thoughts.

Finally, he decided to do one thing.

One thing that can change all the current situation.

Chapter 89 Choose one of the three, who should you love?

What is the current situation?

Undoubtedly, the worst situation.

On the one hand, although the friendly match with Ms. Sicily did not come to a successful conclusion, it also achieved Ashe’s goal. He got information about Ms. Sicily’s strength. This information is pessimistic. Laplande is on par, but in terms of the talent of Book of Khorne, it far surpasses Laplande, who only has the "time stop degraded version" move, and even has the "world modulation" type bottom-pressing ability.

Unless the entire Book of Slaanesh is handed over to Laplande, Ashe has no hope of defeating Lady Sicily on the frontal battlefield.

What about other battlefields?

This is about to mention another aspect, who actually assassinated Texas?After three hours of deliberation, Ai Xi finally came to the conclusion that the most likely behind-the-scenes mastermind was indeed the Restoration Alliance.

It doesn't matter whether it's Albert of the Texas family or the separatist forces of other families trying to overthrow the De's rule. The important thing is that the foreign aid that Ashe wanted to rely on is no longer reliable.

The best situation he envisioned was to integrate the elite forces of the Zion Alliance through the banner of Texas, or use Lapland as the vanguard to besiege the Sicilian lady on the frontal battlefield, or unite him in the The "old friends" in Syracuse set off a rebellion, leaving the Sicilian ladies with no time to look around.

What now?Who can guarantee that no one in the elite he has integrated won't stab him in the back?Who can guarantee that the rebellion of the faintly divided Zionist Alliance in Syracuse will not go its own way?

As for Longmen and Wei Yanwu...he will help whoever wins. It is too good to expect him to help the current Ashe.

Just like that, after a sudden assassination, Ashe lost everything.

But he is not without a hole card.

After all, it is better to rely on yourself than to rely on the sky and the earth. All the arrangements he made four days ago, whether it was the hypnosis of Lapland, or the connection with the Restoration Alliance and Syracuse, were all seeking foreign aid. Behind him, he is also secretly preparing another plan, a plan that he hopes to come back even if all foreign aid fails.

——This plan is to complete one of the two advanced tasks of the Book of Slaanesh mentioned by Amy before, understand or perceive what "love" is through rational or emotional means, and let his own power leap again.

When I heard this plan suddenly, it seemed absurd, or nonsense. When Ashe himself thought about this filing, he laughed at himself—he didn’t understand what love is after using the potion, so how could he complete the advanced task suddenly?

But during the four-day love experiment, along with thinking about the experiment and reflecting on repeated "failures", he gradually thought of a possibility.

An extremely high risk, but a possibility that cannot be ignored.

The source of this possibility in Ashe's mind is actually a very simple logical speculation.

Amy said that giving him the existence of the Book of Slaanesh was to cultivate him as a so-called "champion seed". extreme emotions.

Then the problem is coming.

"They", didn't they think that in the second step of the Book of Slaanesh, Amy happened to be a stumbling block?

To use an analogy, this is equivalent to a parent who is a teacher teaching his son to read. In order to let his son get No. 1 in the class, he smashed the computer at home from the beginning to prevent his son from playing games. ... Nima's final exam has a computer (self-study online exam) subject!

This is illogical, the most basic logic.

Either the parent has lost his mind, or it is another possibility, or he takes the child to the Internet cafe every weekend to study, or asks the tutor to bring a laptop to the door or something.

——"They" have already prepared a shortcut for Ashe that can bypass Amy and allow Ashe to pass the task easily.

Where is this shortcut?
