Siren Blade

Chapter 269 Hug Continued

I put my body back on the sofa and recalled the warm hug just now in the lounge where only I was left.

In the process of reminiscing, I felt that something was changing in my heart, and at the same time, a faint enlightenment arose.

Maybe I just want to be hugged for no reason.

In the past, I tried my best to be a good child with good character and learning in order to get the attention of my parents, but even if I worked hard according to the standards of evaluating good children in society, I still couldn't get anything.Whether they pay attention to me has nothing to do with whether I work hard, and the direction of my hard work has been wrong from the beginning.However, at that time, I didn't know such a thing. I could only feel frustrated and angry, and felt that no matter how many conditions I met, I couldn't get what I wanted.

Under the discouragement, I may have the idea of ​​giving up on myself.I don't want to try to achieve any conditions anymore, I just want to hug and be hugged unconditionally.What I want is not difficult after all, and other people in other places may easily get it.It’s just that I lack self-knowledge. At that time, not only did I get the direction wrong, but I was not very clear about what I wanted, and I couldn’t sort out what was conditional and unconditional in my mind.It's just that the longing is indeed chaotically churning in my heart.

So, on that cold night that determined my fate, in that remote mountain and forest far away from society and civilization, I was wandering hungry, thinking that I would never be able to go home and give up, and I met that man under the hazy moonlight. There is no morality and scheming, pure and ignorant eyes that cannot evaluate anything, so they give up all thinking.I don't want to think about the things after that, so it's okay to end here.

I just want to cuddle with someone at the last minute.

Then my life crashed onto another railroad of evil and depravity.

There seemed to be a familiar sound of train announcements in my ears.

I finally reached the terminal.

I opened my eyes on the sofa in the living room, got up, and walked outside.Blue Bird leaned against the wall outside the door, and when she saw me coming out, she greeted me with a smile.

"Is your body alright?" I asked.

"Still very weak, unable to fight for the time being." She said, "It will take a short time to recover to the point where I can fight, and I don't know if I can catch up with the next battle."

"You said you would take me to a place during the day, so you wanted to take me to meet my parents." I said.

"Yes." She nodded, "Although there were a lot of twists and turns in the process, I managed to get them to talk to you. Originally, I wanted to make a surprise attack... Now that I think about it, there is actually no need for that."

"There is no need for a sudden attack. You said that you want me to meet them, and I will definitely agree. Besides, I should have taken the initiative to meet them, but it has been delayed until today..." I continued sincerely, " Thanks."

"What are you thanking me for?" She first said with a smile, and then couldn't help complaining, "Actually, I prepared a big birthday cake for you in another place at first, and told your parents Alright, let's stay there together, planning to give you a sudden surprise when you come to the door. As a result, the plan was interrupted by some people who didn't understand the style."

"Birthday cake?" I belatedly responded.

"Today is your 20th birthday." She said, "So you really don't remember, I thought you were secretly expecting what birthday present I would give you."

"I haven't celebrated my birthday for so many years, and there are so many things happening recently, how can I notice my own birthday..." I said, but I remembered the previous things.

I previously consulted Joe Licorice to prepare a gift for Jade Bird's birthday soon, and Qiao Licao couldn't help laughing meaningfully after listening to my consultation.

At that time, I wondered why she reacted so strangely, but now I don't think so.Jade Bird consulted her before meeting my parents, so she knew that Jade Bird did it to surprise me on my birthday; I also consulted her to surprise Jade Bird on my birthday.Perhaps in her opinion, it is very interesting that Jade Bird and I do such coincident things.

"I will celebrate your birthday every year from now on." Blue Bird said, "So after killing the white horse, let's revive the sea monster."

"I will." I said.

She looked at me deeply.

Then I went to Joe Licorice and asked her how to make the amulet.

As she said before, even I can make the most crude amulet, just by injecting strength into the carved material.She applied to take out some high-level rare materials that I couldn't recognize from the security bureau's warehouse. The warlock who managed the warehouse passed the application without hesitation after knowing that I needed those materials.

I didn't take it out for nothing.I have accumulated a lot of credit for doing tasks before, and I already have a lot of credits for applying for spell materials, but I usually don't use them.

"Just inject spiritual power into the carved material with a strong sense of protection." After following me back to the lounge, Qiao Licorice imparted his knowledge, "There are not many taboos in the carving technique, you You can do whatever you want."

After speaking, in order to let me concentrate, she left here first.

Although it is said to be a random play, it is like asking someone what they want to eat and being answered "casual", which causes a headache instead.This is a gift I want to prepare for Jade Bird's birthday in the near future. Naturally, I can't just carve it casually.But after thinking about it, I slowly came up with inspiration.

I picked up a piece of white material, first briefly entered "soul burning mode", and then injected the power of true spirit into it.

Under the action of the power of the true spirit, the shell of the material was chipped off bit by bit, and after a while, the object in the hand became a delicate white carnation hair ornament.

In this way, the amulet is completed.

Commonly speaking, this kind of superficial amulet does not have much protective power, but since it is made with super main power, it will have a good power.For many ordinary warlocks, the effects that need to go through advanced and complicated rituals or skills can be formed, but for super main warlocks, it is just instinct and action.

Blue Bird said that it was inconvenient for her to bring her beloved white carnation hair ornament with her, because she was afraid that it would be damaged during the battle.But this amulet made into a white carnation hair ornament should have no such worries.

Thinking of the amulets that Jade Bird gave to my father, Mr. Ruan, I also used the remaining materials to make two amulets for my parents.

When it was over, I leaned back on the sofa.

"Make sure again at the end, Siren." I said to myself, "How long can I use the 'full combustion mode'?"

"Ten seconds." The siren replied, "The premise of the 'complete combustion mode' is to decompose the structure of the spirit body from the most basic level. Once the basic structure of the spirit body is destroyed, it is like the bottom of the tower of cards." Like the card being drawn away, the spirit will undergo a chain reaction of super speed to collapse itself. This chain reaction will burst out with unimaginably powerful power, and it will also produce injuries at a speed that super speed regeneration is too late to save. Super speed regeneration in this case can only It can be used as an external force to barely maintain the form of a spirit body."

"And the limit of the recovery times of super-speed regeneration depends on the reserve of spirit fragments. If I increase the latter before fighting with the white horse, will it be possible to prolong the battery life of the 'complete combustion mode'?" I asked.

"No. The self-destruction speed of 'Complete Burning Mode' is much faster than super-speed regeneration. Even if you have accumulated more recovery times, once it exceeds ten seconds, you will still fall into death that cannot be saved by super-speed regeneration." She said. Said, "If I have to say it, ten seconds refers to the situation where you output your spiritual power with all your strength. If you do nothing after entering the 'full combustion mode', you can extend the battery life to about 60 seconds."

"I only use the 'full combustion mode' to fight beyond my full strength, so there is no such thing as 'doing nothing'." I picked up the amulet on the table as I spoke.

I have prepared gifts for the blue bird and my parents, but I haven't left a decent gift for the siren yet.

After all, I don't know exactly what gift she wants.

I don't even know what month her birthday is.

Of course, I was going to take the Siren Blade as a gift for her after all my battles were over.But the Siren Blade will become her body, and what I want to give her is "a gift that can be carried around".Thinking of this, I said, "Why don't I carve an amulet for you too, what kind of amulet do you want?"

"No. I don't have a body, and I can't put away presents," she said.

"So, is there anything else you want?" I have asked this question a few times before.

And she replied as always: "I don't want anything."

"Really..." At this time, I remembered the conversation that Jade Bird had said to me at the end of New Year's Eve.

——"Then you can hug her."

—— "Hug? Is such a simple thing all right?"

——"Yeah...it's that simple."

Past conversations come to mind.I summoned the Siren Blade, and made the Siren materialize, which she obediently did.The Siren Blade escaped from my hand, changed into the form of a young girl in the air, and landed lightly on the ground.

Then, she looked at me suspiciously, waiting for my order.

I didn't issue an order, but just walked up to her, put one knee on the ground, and slowly hugged her.

In this position, I couldn't see her expression.After a while, she also raised her arms and hugged my head with some force.

I don't know how long it took before I let her go, and she quickly changed her body back into the shape of a weapon as if she didn't want me to see her expression.

I went back to the couch.Although she said no, I used the final materials to carve the amulet just for her.

The Liucheng Security Bureau was about to analyze the route to the center of the nightmare Liucheng, and Qiao Licorice summoned me to the analysis department.Although the progress of the blue bird's recovery seems to be a bit behind, it seems that it will be able to adjust to the state where it can attack in a short while.It's just that time waits for no one, and now even if it is such a short period of time, I must hurry up, so I can only attack first, and Qingniao said that it will follow up later.

I took out the amulet prepared for Jade Bird and my parents and gave it to Joe Licorice, and told her that if I couldn't return, I would give it to Jade Bird and my parents.She knew the danger of this battle, so she accepted it, but after thinking about it, she returned it to me.

"You should still send it out yourself," she said.

"I can't send it out when I'm dead," I said.

She broke my mind, "If I really take the amulet for you, won't you think 'it doesn't matter if you don't come back'?"

I had to put away the amulet first, and then find another way.

It didn't take long before the road map was finally fully completed and delivered to me.

The warlocks around me stopped their work at the same time, watching me silently.

"Go and save Liucheng, Li Duo." Qiao Gancao said.

I nodded, then turned and walked out of the analysis department.Lie Que stood at the main entrance of Liucheng Security Bureau, and the road map was sent to him.

"Can you still fight now?" I asked.

"The secret method of explosion can be used again." Lie Que said.

I observed his body, "You are already seriously injured, if you use the secret burst method again..."

"It doesn't matter." Lie Que's eyes showed a fighting spirit to the death, "Using the explosion secret method in this state will indeed have a high risk of death, even if you don't die, you will definitely be disabled in the future, and you can't even retain your current strength... …But that’s what the so-called desperate battle is all about, I never thought that I could win without paying anything from the very beginning.”

As he said that, he sighed, "It's just that even if I use the secret method of explosion, I can't restore the power of the heyday. I'm afraid I can only compete with Fazheng at most, and if I use Baiju as my opponent..."

"I will defeat Baiju." I said.

"What can you do?" he asked.

"Same as you," I said.

Hearing this, he didn't say much, just nodded, "Then, let's go."

I left the Liucheng Security Bureau, and then entered the "Soul Burning Mode". I followed the route indicated by the road map and headed towards the center of the nightmare Liucheng at full speed, while Lie Que turned into a thunder intermittently and sprinted in front of me.

This time we did not fall into the disordered route again, and I vaguely felt that I was getting closer and closer to Baiju.There is no doubt that Baiju is indeed heading in this direction.

Soon, we have passed more than [-]% of the distance, and we are about to reach the center of the nightmare Liucheng.

But at this moment, Lie Que suddenly stopped advancing and landed on the ground in front of me.Seeing this, I also stopped.

His gaze wandered around, then fixed somewhere.

"Fazheng, you should stay here. Stop spying in the dark, come out for me," he said.
