I, a counselor, just want to have a serious relationship in Ark

"The starry sky overhead is covered by dark clouds... This giant cloud has the outline of a human figure...Despite the dense clouds, on its top, the head of the human figure, shines two bright lights The stars are like two giant eyes."

-August William Trece, "Things That Walk on the Wind"

Ithaqua is one of the Great Old Ones. It appears as a dark, huge human or beast silhouette, with only a pair of bright red eyes exposed.Ithacua occurs in arctic to subarctic regions and was first discovered by indigenous peoples of North America.It is said to lurk in the ruins of the Arctic region, brutally hunting passing travelers.

Ithaqua has many names such as "The Windrunner", "The Walking Death", "The Great White Silent God", "The Unseen Totem God".It is the wind that blows in the interstellar universe, the god of atmosphere subordinate to the king in yellow "Hasta".

Among the several appearances of Itakua, the most typical one is a huge human figure with webbed toes, red eyes, and a bony body.Its face is distorted and terrifying, like a human face that has been stretched and deformed, full of pain; it also often flashes in the strong wind, and its long, haggard hair will sway in the wind like a ghost with its body.

Another common appearance of Itakua is a hairy humanoid with huge horns, claws as sharp as knives, vicious fangs in its mouth, and fiery eyes.It will exhale a large cloud of mist from its mouth, and snowflakes will surround it strangely; this incarnation is likely to be the original form of the horned god of nature believed by prehistoric humans.

Ithaqua's footsteps are as loud as thunder, and can often be heard in the silent winter night, and huge footprints will be found in the snow later.The distance between the footprints is usually about half a mile, and any stalker who follows the trail for some distance will find it suddenly disappears, which usually means that Ithaqua has flown into the sky at this point.

This book uses settings:

【The King's Crown】: Before the shepherd fell asleep in the deep space and star sea, he took off the crown from his head and gave it to his most loyal servant Wendigo.As a prop to host the soul, it can carry the soul of any living creature in the world, including the dead with blood and blood, and it can also give it the possibility of survival.

No.20 Battle of the Snow Monster Princess

Chapter No.20

"cut!"

The long sword around his waist was unsheathed like a dragon, and instantly turned into a sharp ray, cutting off the ice cone flying in front of him in an instant.

"Chixiao Jueying!"

There is no obstacle in the narrow alleyway, the red sword light flashes one after another in the hand, the red and blue are intertwined like fire, like a long rainbow, it strikes at the figure in the white cloak holding the rapier———

Bang!Bang!Bang!

The layers of ice walls exploded one after another, and the snow-like figure retreated quickly.When he felt that the opponent's attack was finally slowed down by the continuous blocking of the ice wall, the cloaked figure lightly recited a spell symbolizing the skill of the origin stone.

"[Ice Ring]... triple release."

The swirling frost was infinitely compressed, and condensed into a cold ice ball in the palm of the hand.

Accompanied by the murmur of the words, the ice ball in the hands of the cloaked man suddenly expanded.The violent source energy fluctuations formed at least three frost rings with strong impact in the air, and in the blink of an eye, they spread out centered on the cloaked figure.

"!" His expression changed, the impact of the triple ice ring at such a distance has become unavoidable.

Chen gritted her teeth and raised Chi Xiao in her hand. She knew that she might have to resist this move obediently.

"—Boom!"

The ice ring exploded at close range, and the flying ice debris immediately turned the narrow alleyway into a world of ice and snow.

"Chen sir, be careful."

However, what the body feels is not the cold sting of the flying ice flakes piercing into the skin, but the familiar temperature from the gentle palms.

Holding his shoulders and pulling himself together with them, he stretched out the umbrella stick in his hand to cover all the ice flakes that hit him.

How should I put it, Chen doesn't dislike this feeling, the feeling that he can entrust his back to someone he trusts.

"...Thank you."

Looking sideways at the man who calmly smiled as if the strong enemy in front of him didn't exist, Chen's expression showed a hint of helplessness.

Only he dared to do such a thing, to participate in this level of dangerous battle with the physique of an ordinary person—even with the power of those magical props.

However, borrowing is borrowing, this kind of calmness in planning everything and facing variables without urgency cannot be "borrowed".It was also because of this that Chen dared to let the man she cared about go to the battlefield and stand side by side with her to overcome difficulties.

"It's just a trivial matter. Compared to this, let's block her way quickly, Sir Chen."

Looking at the Zalak girl not far behind who had already been taken to the guard room of the Guard Bureau to be fully protected, Xu You put away the mobile phone that had just hung up in her hand and had not yet had time to put it in her arms.

Since the situation has undergone many changes earlier than he expected, it is naturally impossible for him to proceed step by step.

"Well, this time, I won't make the mistake just now."

Nodding to Xu You, Chen clenched the scarlet scabbard again—it has to be said that she actually underestimated the figure in the white cloak. If Xu You hadn't been present, she would have suffered a lot.

Such a powerful ice origin stone skill, rich and difficult combat experience, coupled with that indifferent fighting style - as the inspector team leader of the Guard Bureau responsible for the security and stability of the entire Longmen and the surrounding areas Well, if Chen still can't guess who this white cloaked man is at this point, then she has no reason to continue to sit in this official position.

[Wandering around the major borders of Ursas, the infected team is listed as a "terrorist organization" by the official government, and as their leader, the user of the ice-type Originium skill --- "Princess Snow Monster", Frost Star . 】

Frost like cold, lonely and starry.

"Princess of the snow monsters... I never expected that you, who were listed on the top wanted list by the Ursus government, would appear in Longmen without warning."

The impact of the ice ring was fully offset by the mysterious black umbrella. Seeing that the enemy's momentum slowed down a bit, Chen's body flickered and rushed towards the man in the white cloak again——

"I don't care what your purpose is, but since you are here and want to create chaos, our Guard Bureau will never tolerate it! Prepare to be arrested, foreign terrorists!"

In a blink of an eye, the heroic figure in the blue-haired police superintendent's uniform was in front of the figure in the white cloak.

Chi Xiao's sharp blade sliced ​​through the icy air, roaring like a real dragon.Straight to the gap between the shoulders of the man in the white cloak, he cut off suddenly.

--clang!

It was the sound of metal and iron of the thin sword and the long knife, bursting out dazzling sparks.

"Well!"

The struggle that seemed to be pure strength was inferior to that of the superintendent of the Dragon Clan. The figure in the white cloak, who had previously used Originium skills to defeat many enemies without showing signs of weakness, finally couldn't resist.With a whimper in his mouth, the originally motionless figure finally backed away.

Damn, what is that man's ability...

Of course, at the moment before he couldn't hold back in the confrontation with the Superintendent of the Dragon Clan, Shuang Xing did not forget to take a bitter look at the monocle man standing leisurely with an umbrella stick not far away.

If it weren't for this man who seemed to be no different from ordinary people, her several attacks that were about to be effective would have already made that troublesome dragon police superintendent unable to recover!

But now after several times, the advantage has turned into a balance of power, and the balance of power has turned into a disadvantage... Maybe others can't see how that man intervened in the battle, but Shuang Xing understands that if this superintendent of the Dragon Race can finally win Most of this battle is due to that man.

We must not waste time in this kind of place anymore... we must break through as soon as possible!

"Superintendent from the Longmen Guards Bureau, I didn't intend to create chaos here, but I was entrusted to clean up the debris. If you insist on forcing each other, don't blame me for not leaving room!"

Retreating between the several houses at the end of the lane, the cloak that was originally used to cover the face fell down, revealing the cold and beautiful face of the snow-haired Carters girl with determination——Shuang Xing didn't know what the Guards Bureau was like She knew her own whereabouts, but since she had been exposed, the snow monster teams on the other two sides would definitely not be any better.

Especially the side of the transfer station that she cares about the most... No matter what, even if something happens to her, the snow monster team at the transfer station must not have an accident!She had to go to ensure the safety of her crew, as fast as she could.

"Have you seen the private houses around here? I've always heard that Police Officer Chen Da of the Longmen Guard Bureau distinguishes between good and evil. When enforcing the law, he will not let a bad person go, and at the same time, he will not implicate a good person by mistake."

Raising the rapier in his hand, the cold air emitted by the Originium skill spread along the ground veins towards the residential buildings on both sides.Needless to say, the purpose of this snow monster princess is very clear——

"Stop it, dare you!"

Chen's complexion changed, and Chen's complexion suddenly sank—she almost forgot that what stood in front of her was not some robbers and kidnappers, but a genuine terrorist organization of infected people.

Although the former is illegal, he still has a way out for himself, while the latter is truly unscrupulous.

"Ming people don't say dark words. This encounter was won by Officer Chen. But if you want to catch me, it will not be so easy."

The thin sword in his hand pointed at the crowd who surrounded him but did not dare to approach easily.Frost Star's lips moved slightly, and said:

"Disperse the team and let me go. I promise not to hurt any innocent residents of Longmen. Otherwise...even if you have the confidence to catch me, Officer Chen, you will naturally have to pay some price, right?"

......

No.20 Sit down and talk

No.20 Chapter Two

"Let you go? This is absolutely impossible!"

Hearing the conditions proposed by Shuangxing, Chen immediately refused without thinking.

Are you kidding me, this is the leader of the extremely dangerous Infected Forces, a natural disaster-level source stone art artist known as the "Snow Monster Princess".Walking in the territory of Longmen itself, it is no different from a bomb.

After getting the news of Xu You, Chen Hui personally came to arrest him, and it was the same reason.And now, let them let her go?Unless Chen was crazy, he would agree to this ridiculous condition.

"Princess of the snow monster, I warn you in the name of the Longmen Guards Bureau! Put down all weapons now, and it's too late to catch you! Otherwise, Longmen will contact the headquarters of the Yan Kingdom Guards Bureau, and let you also be on the Yan Kingdom's arrest warrant!"

Frowning tightly, staring at the Carters woman standing alone in the encirclement, Chen shouted angrily again.

It is true that the current Frost Star is threatening the lives of innocent residents in the lower city that may exist in several nearby residential buildings.

But Chen has no choice... As the defender of the overall order of Longmen, she must not let the snow monster princess go just because of this—when her specific purpose is unknown.

Otherwise, if she threatens more people, even the city of Longmen, Chen can't afford the consequences.

"...It seems that Officer Chen meant to put the safety of the nearby residents at risk?"

Seeing Chen's statement like this, Shuang Xing, who had already shown his face, raised his eyebrows, and immediately laughed at himself as if thinking of something ridiculous:

"Yeah, what am I doing here...Xiacheng District is the most barren urban area on the edge of Longmen, and the life and death of the residents in it must be looked down upon by Police Officer Chen. I thought that Police Officer Chen was so upright and awe-inspiring." People, seeing you now, it’s nothing more than that.”

With a slight lift of the rapier in his hand, the frost that had spread over the low buildings around the houses gradually retreated to Frost Star's side.No one knows what she wants to do at this moment.

"...?"

"In the rightmost room on the fourth floor of the third building on the left, a pair of infected brother and sister lived. In the shed at the entrance of the third floor, there was a disabled infected beggar. At the entrance on the second floor of the first building on the right, there was a room dedicated to infected people. The classroom where children study, the children in the classroom are currently taking a lunch break... I have to admit that compared to many places in Ursas, the most barren place in your Longmen has such a scene, I admire it very much."

I don't know what to say, Shuangxing said to himself.With emotion and sigh, he said to Chen not far away:

"However, even such a scene has never caught your eyes... Even though the life that so many infected people yearn for is close at hand, you still abandon it and dismiss it."

".....what do you want to say in the end?"

Seeing this scene in his eyes, Chen, who was holding Chi Xiao tightly in his hands and was ready to fight at any time, felt something was wrong—although she probably understood what the Carters woman wanted to express, because she was also one of them (thought she ).

However, Chen faintly felt that Frost Star seemed to be brewing something... It was like the silence before the storm, which made people feel extremely disturbed.

"I will never take action against my compatriots, no matter when, where, and what race and blood they are. The members of the Yeti Squad will only fight against [people] who claim to be righteous... Do you understand, Officer Chen .”

Crunch, bark———

That was the sound of cracks in the sewers spewing water from the ground.

————!

It never occurred to Chen how that the other party confronted herself and the others here under the guise of threatening hostages. Their purpose was not to take hostages... but for time. The preparation time for the huge Originium technique that turned the world around.

"General, everyone from the Guard Bureau, and the gangster lady."

The rapier wrapped in frost pointed at the ground, and the moment before Chen Consciousness came over and pulled out Chi Xiao Fei Zhan, the source energy emitted penetrated the ground and merged with the intricate sewer network.

Heat expands and contracts, and water pipes are no exception.Through the control of ice, Froststar can completely destroy the underground pipeline system in the lower city to reverse the disadvantaged situation.

Pfft!Pfft!Pfft!

Like spring bamboo shoots emerging from the ground, they toppled holes in the concrete ground in an instant.The lasing water condensed into longer ice cones under the sun that could not feel the warmth, and shot towards the surrounding people in an instant.

"Retreat, all temporarily retreat!"

The water vapor scattered all over the sky gave the snow monster princess a chance to breathe again. On the contrary, Chen's indomitable momentum was blocked by the ice wall again.

"Damn! How could this be... huh?"

But when Chen hurriedly retreated to the rear after a fruitless blow, she suddenly saw that the man wearing the monocle came to the battlefield between her and the snow monster princess at some point. central.

"Xu You, are you crazy? It's dangerous there, come back quickly!...?"

Seeing the man wearing the monocle suddenly do this for some reason, Chen's mood suddenly became tense—although she knew that he had some ability to defend himself, but he was the princess of the Snow Monster Squad with all his moves!If you don't pay attention, your life will be threatened!

As for Xu You, in Chen's eyes, he was just an ordinary person.That umbrella can block the front, but the scattered water vapor can be said to be pervasive, and it is impossible to prevent it! ....Ok?

Chen was stunned. When she saw a certain man walking up to the ice wall made by the Snow Monster Princess and knocking on the "door" in an unclear manner, she immediately spoke in a warm voice:

"My dear Miss Carters, I'm afraid you have misunderstood something. Officer Chen did not say that you are not allowed to leave this place, let alone abandon the nearby residents. I hope I can talk to you about something... ...if you were still the snow monster princess who cared about the life and death of her compatriots."
