Chapter 7 Is it really okay?
"It's a pity," the man in black sighed, "if you do what Sarai tells you, instead of playing tricks with Sophia, everything will be much better."
Su Li lowered her head, as if thinking about the meaning of the words of the black robe, but her hands had begun to sweat. The light of the sunset came diagonally, and she felt some changes in the light and shadow under her feet. Suddenly, she jumped away without warning, and a shock hammer just knocked down from her head and was avoided by her. She turned her head and saw panic on the face of the priest who could not be attacked, and she was quickly making a gesture to make further attacks.
Before Steele's magic could be used, she had shouted in a low voice, and the thin sword quickly flashed, cutting his throat with a sword. The priest looked at her with despair before his death. There was a dry throat, and then his whole body fell down, and the blood flowing from his neck turned red with the sand at dusk.
"Very good," the man in black smiled, "but this is just the beginning."
There were rapid footsteps in the distance. Su Li turned her head and saw Meggie and Ziya running towards her. When Meiji saw the priest lying on the ground, she was immediately shocked and touched her head and looked at Su Li. She didn't know what had happened. Zia didn't care about whether Steele was alive or corpse at all. She just shouted at the knight girl, "Sister Su Li, someone is coming."
At this time, even Su Li saw two blindfolded men in black sneaking towards Stonehenge with machetes used by sand thieves through some cracks in Stonehenge. The soldier followed Meiji and looked at the priest who fell to the ground in astonishment. He was not a fool. Naturally, he could see that Steele died under Su Li's thin sword.
"I'll explain to you later," Su Li whispered, "Fight deal with these enemies first."
"Miss Fit," the projection of the black-robed magician began to dissipate, but before it completely dispersed, he bent down to the girl. "For the sake of being the daughter of Mary Sulen Eviell, please allow me to give you a small proposal. If you feel that the darkness is irresistible, you might as well hide in this arch first.
Su Li frowned and looked at the arch on the side. She had checked it in detail before. It was just an empty stone room. She didn't understand the use of hiding in it.
"I hope you can live to tomorrow." The man in black smiled and said, and then disappeared.
Without time to think about the meaning of his words, Su Li looked at Novak: "How many enemies are there?"
"It's about eight to nine." The soldier replied.
"Use the stone piles and don't let them form a siege." Su Li said. She turned her head to look at Meiji and Ziya: "You hide first..."
"I can also fight." Ziya raised her hand.
"Me too...I...Okay, I'll hide." Meiji muttered.
Su Li looked at Qi Ya and nodded: "Be careful."
After saying that, she went with the soldiers to occupy the favorable terrain in Stonehenge first. Look at me." Ziya shouted proudly, and her body shook. Her skin first "melted" her vest and short barrel trousers, and then grew feathers and turned into a female eagle to fly into the sky. When the other enemies sneaked into the Stonehenge, she folded in the air and suddenly swept down. She turned into a bear and caught the man in black at the end. After knocking him unconscious, she turned into a female eagle and flew up. The masked men obviously did not expect that there would be a Drui among their opponents. They all focused on the female eagle, but they were attacked by Su Li.
"Love dazzling." Meiji looked at Zi Ya, who flew to the sky and giggled, and couldn't help criticizing.
The soldier rushed out from behind the stone pile and twisted the neck of a man in black. Two enemies tried to attack him, but after Su Li said something that no one could understand, the thin sword began to emit blue light, and her whole movement became extremely flexible. In the blink of an eye, she approached the two enemies. The thin sword seemed to just shake and pierced their hearts at the same time. The effect of the blue light soon disappeared. She retreated and read another sentence when avoiding the pursuit of a man in black, changing to a white light flashing on the thin sword. She stabbed, and the thin sword easily penetrated the boulder and stabbed a man in black close to the boulder to resist the attack of the warriors from behind. And Ziya also fell from the air again and threw down the enemy who chased Suli from the back of her head.
It seems that it is now that the opponent is far more difficult to deal with than he thought. The remaining four masked people were timid and wanted to retreat. As a result, they were caught up by Qi Ya and Su Li one by one and soon ended the battle.
Will it be that simple? Su Li looked at the bodies of these masked people and had doubts in her mind. If this trap is really set by the person she suspects, it is impossible for her to escape so easily.
The sunset has passed, and the crescent moon with faint light has risen. The moon in the desert and the full moon in the fog forest are obviously different. It is colder and more practical.
A sound of horses' hoofs came, accompanied by some kind of rapid cold feeling. They looked in the direction of the sound of horses' hoofs, and then saw a knight in black armor galloping... a headless black armored knight.
The black armored horse of the headless knight made a terrible hiss and suddenly jumped over Stonehenge from the air, as if covering the dark clouds in the moonlight. Meiji stared at him pull out his dark sword and fly towards him, feeling that his whole body was frozen.
"Mage, be careful." Zi Ya rushed over and turned into a bear and threw him to the ground. The headless knight's huge sword passed by and drew a stunning color on her back.
"Qiya." Megsy held her tightly, and her whole hand was covered with sticky**. The Drew girl regained her shape and fell into his arms motionless.
"Bry her into the stone room." Sully Fitt shouted to him, with a quick resussion, and the thin sword flashed with white light and stabbed the headless knight like lightning. The headless knight's huge sword was blocked, and there was a loud sound. Su Li was shaken back, and the headless knight also stopped Ma Dun. This is the first time that Meiji has seen something that can't be pierced after her thin sword is covered with "white light". Even Golander's body, which is harder than steel, has been pierced by Su Li's thin sword.
He hugged Ziya and crawled into the arch. There was nothing else in the arch except a stone table covered with sand and dust. Outside the arch, Sully and Novak joined hands, but were still forced back by the headless knight step by step.
"Find out if there is a secret door." Sully shouted to Meiji. The "irresistible darkness" mentioned by the black-robed magician before leaving must refer to this headless knight. If he hadn't lied to himself, there should be something in this stone room that could help him resist the headless knight for the time being.
Mage put down the unconscious Zia and groped along the stone wall in the dark. The situation of Sully and Novak has become more and more difficult. In a return sword of Sully, the sword in the hands of the warrior who fought for her to attack suddenly broke, and the headless knight's huge sword immediately cut off his whole head. Su Li rolled sideways and rolled into the stone room, but the headless knight did not stay much. The huge sword cut randomly, split the arch into gravel, and then rode the horse in from the widened arch without hesitation.
Su Li read anxiously in the rolling, and the thin sword in her hand flashed blue light. She jumped lightly on the stone table and gasped at the headless knight. The headless knight held the huge sword high, and the tip of the sword drew sparks at the top of the stone room...
"I found it." Megji's voice came behind her, followed by a bang, and something was being opened.
"Come in quickly." Meiji picked up Zia and ran into the open secret door while turning around and shouting at Su Li.
Su Li turned back and just avoided the huge sword cut by the headless knight. Then she kicked the beam at the top of the room and jumped into the secret door with her sword. A small fire lit up in the dark door, and then went out again. It should be that Meiji lit a saltpeter match commonly used on this continent. Under the dark door was a short stone ladder. She ran a few steps along the stone ladder with her feeling, and then slammed into Meggie's back.
"Why don't you run?" She is a little anxious.
"There is no way?" Meiji said.
"What?" Sully was stunned.
Meji lit another saltpetre match, and then Su Li saw that they were still in a closed space. In the middle of the dark room stands a statue of a god with a dilapidated table in front of the statue. Meiji saw a kerosene lamp on the table, so she stepped forward and lit it.
"There must be a way out." Su Li found it on the stone wall of the dark room, but she couldn't find any mechanism. "If it's just a dead end, there's no need for the magician to remind us."
"But the guy outside didn't come in..."
Su Li was stunned and found that it was surprisingly quiet outside. She frowned slightly and whispered, and the blue light flashed on the thin sword again, and then she silently sneaked to the door and looked out. The headless knight was still pegling back and forth in the stone room outside the door, but he had no intention of breaking in at all.
Being her, Meggie muttered, "I know why it dares not come in."
"Why?"
"That guy should be a dead spirit, right?" Meiji asked, "Do you know what god the dead are most afraid of?"
Su Li doesn't know.
"In ancient legends, there were only two gods who could directly control the human soul! Luna, the goddess, gave human life itself, and the dark evil god injected death into it. The opportunity of life and the inevitability of death are the so-called laws of life. But the dead escaped death through some ritual. For the dark evil god, this is an intolerable blasphemy, so the god the dead are most afraid of..." Meiji raised the kerosene lamp and lit up the statue, "Shading, the dark god."
Su Li turned around and saw the face of the dark evil god. It was a cold face, handsome and weird, without a trace of pity and kindness, as if it were a black hole that could swallow all colors.
"Shadin..." The girl felt her body trembling quietly, as if she was going to escape desperately. Yes, that's why the magician deliberately reminded himself to enter here, because this is the altar of Shastine, and she is the daughter of Mary Sulen Ewell...
"Although the dark evil god has been forced to leave the world, some of his divine power will still survive in some places, and this must be one of them." Meiji did not notice what was wrong with the girl. "My mother was born a hundred years after the darkness. At that time, she was still a follower of Shastine. In fact, almost all dark creatures lived in the shadow of the dark evil god at that time. She once told me that although the dark evil god had left, with his cruelty, it was impossible not to make some arrangements so that the world could not escape his control even after he left.
Su Li's heart is getting colder and colder. She knows what Meiji said, even more than he thought. She slipped along the stone wall, and the thin sword fell aside and curled up tightly. Helplessness, sadness, and all the negative emotions entangled in her heart, making her feel that her reason was almost broken.
Until Meji whispered out. She raised her head and forced herself to ask, "What's wrong?"
"Ziya...she's not right..."
Su Li held the stone wall and walked towards them. She came to Meiji's side and saw that Meiji had opened Zia's vest, revealing the wound on her back. Since she happened to become a bear at that time, although the wound was long, fortunately it was not deep. However, black blood bubbles overflowed from her wound, and the flesh and blood near the wound were also black, and kept wriggling around like maggots.
"This is a wound caused by the Sword of the Dead," Su Li said softly. "To eliminate the curse attached to the wound, you have to have a high level of healing, or..."
"Or bask in the sun for a while." Meiji said. The Black Annes also taught him this. In fact, she taught him a lot about gods or dark creatures.
However, the priest is dead, and there is no one around them who can heal. Although Ziya should be able to survive until dawn, the headless knight has been outside, and even if it is dawn, they can't get out. Although the dead are extremely disgusted with the sun, they will not turn into ashes in the sun as some people think. What's more, it just needs to stay in the stone room outside.
"I'll find out if there is any secret." Megji jumped up.
"Don't look for it, it's useless." Su Li said in a low voice. The magician would never let her escape from her fate like this. How could he leave her a way out?
"But Zia is dying," Meiji was anxious. "She can't last until tomorrow night."
Su Li looked up at him: "Are you worried about her?"
"She's my friend," Meji knelt beside the Drew girl and cried. "She is different from others, and she is different from the three children you saved. She is my friend. I have to give her to Joshua as a bride, and I have to paint a toad on her buttocks. I can't let her die... She is my friend..."
"She won't die," Su Li said slowly, as if she had made up her mind. She stretched out her hand to Meiji to comfort her, "At dawn, I will have a solution."
Mage shook off her hand fiercely: "What can I do? You can't beat that dead spirit again."
Su Li did not answer. She really has a way, the only way, and it is also the way that the magician wants. Throw away the light, there is no redemption, and from then on fall into the deepest darkness...
That night, Ziya never woke up. Meiji took out all the herbs from his big pocket and applied them to her wound, which could not stop the spread of black flesh and blood. Su Li took off her dress and covered her body, and then sat quietly as if she had lost her soul.
The light of the kerosene lamp is getting dimer and darker, making Shastine's face seem to sneer strangely.
Meggie lay next to Zia, but she couldn't sleep. He didn't know how long he had been lying until he felt that his whole body was stiff, so he had to sit up and move for a while. As a result, he saw the girl still sitting there with her eyes open and didn't know what she was thinking.
"Suli, what's wrong with you?" He finally found that something was wrong with the girl and moved over. The girl suddenly jumped up and hugged him tightly, as if she was shaking because of the cold.
"Suli..."
"Let's do it," Su Li whispered in his ear, "I promised to sleep with you all night."
"But now..."
"Now is the best time... because it's not dawn yet." Su Li took his hand and guided him to touch herself*, "Don't you want to do it? Don't you want to do it with me?"
"I want..." Meiji replied.
"Then come on." Sully went to take off Meg's clothes. It's just that her movements were so stiff that he had to do it himself.
Mage untied the girl's corset and gently stroked her body. The girl's body became softer and softer, and her cheeks were slightly red due to this shameful touch for the first time. Bite me." She snorted, but with some kind of disturbing madness.
Meggie bit down hard, causing the peak on her chest to bear some kind of distortion. The girl's body twitched because of the pain, and her waist straightened up.
"Suli," Meiji hesitated for a moment, "do you really want it? I mean, you are my friend, if you don't really want to..."
"Am I your friend?" Su Li opened her eyes wide, as if she was a little surprised by what Meiji said.
"Well, you are. You are my friend like Ziya.
The girl smiled. This is the first time that Megji has seen such a happy smile.
"Go in, Meggie," she whispered, "I'm very happy, at least for the first time... Maybe it's the only time in my life that I did it with my friends."
Meggie began to hold her tightly, and the two kept rolling and kissing on the ground until all the enthusiasm finally subsided. The girl was still * on him, holding Meiji's chest with her hands and gasping gently. They lasted like this for a while. When Meggie felt that he had recovered a little, he stretched out his hand and wanted to touch the girl's breasts. However, a tear fell on his arm.
He looked at the girl's face puzzledly, but saw Su Li lowering her head and allowing her hair to spread randomly.
"Suli...what's wrong with you?" He asked worriedly.
Su Li raised her head and tears slipped silently under the light of the kerosene lamp. "I'm not reconciled, I'm so unwilling..."
"Suli..."
"He has worked very hard and has endured it for more than ten years," Su Li's hand grasped tightly on his chest, as if suppressing her inner pain. "But why is it still like this?"
Meggie didn't know what she was talking about, but he still clearly felt the sadness and frustration in her heart, which was a knife-like pain, just like all dreams and hopes were suddenly broken and could no longer be recovered. He stretched out his hand to try to comfort her. Su Li threw herself on his chest and let him hold her tightly.
"Meggie... I'm really unwilling..." she whispered.
Then he cried bitterly.
Meggie hugged her, but she didn't know what to say. He doesn't know her. Even if they are naked together now, he still doesn't know her. He had never even thought about getting to know anyone before. However, now, he really wants to know why she is crying and why she is so sad.
Su Li's crying gradually decreased, and then there was a silence. After a while, she whispered, "Meggie, can you do something for me? One thing is very important to me. Didn't you say you were my friend?
"What's the matter?"
"Go to Wangcheng," Su Li said slowly, "If I'm not here, can you go to Wangcheng for me to see Princess Sophia?"
"Why aren't you here?" Meiji's heart surged with anxiety, "You will go with us, right? You still need to help me and Zia find Joshua.
"I mean if... just if," Su Li raised her head and smiled at him. "I will write a letter and you have to give it to Sophia for me. That letter is very important, more important than your life and mine, because it is related to the future of the whole kingdom... Will you help me?
"No." Meiji said childishly, "Go and give it to her yourself."
Su Li looked at him. After a while, she suddenly smiled and kissed him: "Forget it, I'll write the letter later. You can go or not. In fact, maybe it's better for you if you don't go.
Meggie snorted.
Su Li no longer paid attention to him, but closed her eyes and moved her waist. Then her face turned red and whispered close to his ear, "Can't you do it again?"
"Wait a minute," Meiji stared, "We just finished..."
"But I still want it."
"This..." Suddenly, he saw the big pocket thrown next to him, and his eyes lit up: "Is it okay to use sausage?"
Su Li's face became hot, and she said "um" shyly...
