Offered Into Marriage

The corridor is very deep, and at the end is the darkness that cannot be illuminated by searchlights, as if leading to an unknown world.

Monta walked in the forefront, scattered a dozen miniature automatic scanners, and quickly moved forward to explore the way.The scanned environment map is sent back to the terminal shared by the three to generate an ever-expanding three-dimensional topographic map.

At the end of the passage is a blocked road, but there is a side road not far away, which leads to a wide space.

Although the space has been filled with broken walls and ruins, it can still be seen that it was originally spherical.

Yang Yang glanced at the topographic map and recognized it: "It's the exhibition hall of the giant ocean beast."

After predicting that Yaqing would appear during the trial period, and therefore formulated this plan, the military department found a lot of information about the aquarium to show them.

The information is incomplete, but this exhibition hall was the largest exhibition hall in the aquarium at the time, so Yang Yang was more impressed.

Monta also nodded in agreement. "That's right.—how's the signal?"

Soul-like cloud belts can interfere with communication signals, and areas where powerful spirit beasts appear also have such interference.

Therefore, they can make a preliminary judgment based on the strength of the signal.

Yang Yang asked Rot, and then replied: "The interference has increased, and the signal will be lost after walking a few meters."

Archibald's eyes turned cold: "So he is in front."

Yang Yang: "It should be."

Monta's voice was also rarely serious. He let out an almost breathless laugh, and then said coldly: "He is waiting for us, let's go."

Yang Yang glanced at him and Archibald, their faces were cold and stern, but their eyes were firm—although they may not be able to fully accept that Yaqing is an enemy, they do not plan to release the water.

Yang Yang withdrew his gaze, didn't say anything, just carefully supported Puff's back in the restraint belt on his chest, and was alert to the surrounding environment.

……

The road was not long, but it was too dark around, and small animals would come out from time to time. They walked for a few minutes before reaching the fork in the road.

The fork in the road is arc-shaped, and when you walk in and turn around the tangent point that is flush with the entrance, there is a little light in front of your eyes.

Yang Yang followed the light subconsciously to look, and it turned out that the exhibition hall was also smashed through, and there was even a tall building obliquely inserted in it, and the light came through the gap between the tall building and the ruins.

It is now 08:30 in the morning, and the sun is not too hot. It falls through the ruins, leaving only a few blurred spots on the messy ground.

Monta walked in first with a weapon, and after looking around, turned his back to Archibald and gestured to Yangyang.

Safety.

Yang Yang walked in with Archibald, only to find that the space was bigger than what he saw at the door.

The collapsed high-rise buildings and the already huge giant decorative coral are intertwined together, creating a strange sense of confusion in the ruins, making people feel as if they have entered the kingdom of adults.

"Crack."

At this moment, there was a soft sound in the silent and empty space.

A piece of cement peeled off from the ruins, smashed on the weeds growing on the ground, and shattered into sand.

Archibald and Montague immediately guarded the sheep's center, one left and one right, and then raised their weapons and looked in the same direction.

It happened to be a corner under the collapsed tall building, and the beam of light falling from the sky blocked the corner, making the corner even darker.

It's like there's some monster hiding inside.

"I'm here."

Suddenly, a voice came from the opposite direction.

The three of them were startled, and then looked back.

Yaqing was standing at the place where the beam of light shone down obliquely above them on the right.

He was wearing very thin clothes, standing there coldly, the falling light created a rough outline on his body, making him look thinner and colder.

Compared with before leaving, his complexion became much better, just like the first time Yang Yang saw him, weak but giving people a sense of tranquility.

Archibald's jaw tightened, and then slowly loosened.

"uncle."

Yaqing glanced at Archibald, smiled slightly, and suddenly asked, "Bird, can you give me the medicine?"

The medicine Yaqing mentioned was of course not the medicine Archibald took, but the Dragon Soul Core.

Before Archibald answered, Monta sneered: "Mr. Yaqing, soul crystals are things that can only be condensed after the death of a soul beast, even if it is a dragon-level soul beast. The medicine, it took Bird's life."

"nonsense."

Yaqing frowned slightly, as if reprimanding a troublesome student, "I'm saving him. Let the dragon soul core condense and take it out, and he will be cured. This is not my medicine, it is his medicine, his only solution medicine."

Yang Yang raised his voice and retorted sharply: "Don't deceive yourself, you are not saving him, you are saving yourself. ——We have read your diary."

Yang Yang took a breath, calmed down, and said, "I don't know how much you still belong to Uncle Yaqing now, no, it belongs to the consciousness of Uncle Yaqing 75 years ago, but since you appeared here, then he It must still be in this body."

This is a game that invites the king to enter the urn, and it is not done very well. If Yaqing has been completely swallowed by the dragon soul consciousness, even if it knows that the dragon soul core in Archibald's body is beginning to be digested, it will not take the risk of entering the game come here.

After all, a soul beast feeds on soul power, so as long as it hibernates, it will be able to accumulate enough soul power sooner or later.

Yang Yang hit the spot.

After hearing Yang Yang's words, Yaqing's expression changed, but only for a moment.

Yang Yang did not give up, and continued to say in a gentle voice: "Uncle Yaqing, the more dragon soul cores are swallowed, the stronger the dragon soul consciousness will be. If you swallow the dragon soul cores in the Duke, you are not saving yourself, you are committing suicide. "

But Yaqing shook his head, persistently said: "No, I'm saving him."

Yang Yang closed his eyes and sighed in his heart—Yaqing still failed to pass his own barrier. He cherished his family, so he struggled to retain a trace of sobriety.But when he was sober, he still chose to avoid the mistakes he had made, just like he did 75 years ago.

He didn't kill his sister, he just wanted to help her.

He didn't want to kill Byrd, he just wanted to save him.

Escape, escape, escape.

Until now, he had nowhere to escape.

Yang Yang no longer tried to wake up Yaqing, but said bluntly: "You didn't save him, you know that. But we can save you. ——The Duke's condition has improved, and you have seen it.

You have recorded in your journal that you have tried to heal yourself and have only failed.But now we have found a way to remove medicine stones from the body. ——Uncle Yaqing, you can return to our side instead of going to the soul beast. "

This was a tempting enough condition, but Yaqing didn't hesitate at all.

Yaqing twitched the corner of his mouth, showing a miserable smile: "I can't go back."

He seemed to have regained consciousness, with tears in his eyes: "I was supposed to die in the catastrophe, but I survived. I was saved by Dragon Soul Crystal. At the age of five, the soul power of the child's Soul Palace finally took shape At that time, at that time, I was already a half soul beast.

If the medicine stone soul power in my body is cleared now, I will die too. "

A tear rolled down from Yaqing's eye socket, and the falling tear seemed to take away his miserable expression, and the next second, the expression on his face became indifferent.

"I know I've come to a dead end. I've hurt others and my family, but what can I do? I want to live. No one can help me, only myself."

"I just want to live, is that wrong?"

As he spoke, Yaqing slowly raised his hands, and a layer of transparent material jumped out of his skin like drops of water, gradually forming a transparent film.

That is the embodiment of a soul beast.

"boom!"

Without hesitation, Monta shot Yaqing's heart with his gun!

However, the bullet did not enter Yaqing's clothes, but stopped, and then slowly retreated, squeezed out of Yaqing's clothes by a layer of transparent film, and fell to the ground.

"Hold."

Monta cursed in a low voice, and fired again "bang bang".

His bullets were fired intensively, and he didn't shoot indiscriminately, but aimed at a place and fired continuously.

Monta's marksmanship was very good, the bullets he fired were almost in a straight line and sank towards one point, but after more than a dozen bullets in a row, Yaqing still didn't break the skin.

Monta's magazine was empty, and he looked at the transparent packet gushing out from Yaqing's chest. There was a dent on the packet. Anyone with good eyesight would be able to spot a crack in the center of the dent. The traces were like a hole punctured in the transparent jelly, and the round and flawless skin was destroyed.

The cracks are healing, but slowly.

Monta grinned: "Bird, the protection layer is E+, and the reply is C,——I thought it was really a dragon-level soul beast."

The dragon-level soul beast back then was simply a monster. Not to mention a dozen bullets, even missiles would need to be fired in succession to break it a little.And its healing power is frighteningly strong.

But now this, ha.

"Don't underestimate the enemy."

Archibald had expected this situation long ago, but he didn't relax - after all, it was a dragon soul consciousness and wisdom, which couldn't be compared with ordinary soul beasts.

"I know."

Monta responded, then threw away the gun in his hand, opened the weapon and equipment for the animal shape, put it on, and bowed into the animal shape.

The black beast-shaped Lester flicked his tail, and there was a metal box on his back, and he didn't know what it was.

Yaqing's soul beast has not yet fully formed, and Archibald intends to take advantage of this opportunity to attack.

Archibald opened the black battle armor for the human form, then lowered his head and said to Yang Yang: "Retreat to the edge of the hole, don't enter the corridor, open the energy shield, and don't move around."

Yang Yang didn't show his strength, and retreated obediently. At the same time, he took out the protective cover device from the storage chip and skillfully opened it—not just one layer, but three layers.

Yang Yang protected the puff in his arms with both hands, looked at Archibald, "Be careful."

Archibald: "I know."

Archibald glanced at Puff. Puff was obediently lying in Yangyang's arms. He didn't know what animation was in the helmet. The little guy seemed very happy to watch, and the rhythm of his tail was very cheerful, and he even beat the beat.

Archibald smiled, looked at Yang Yang again, and turned away.The black battle armor helmet was buckled down, blocking Archibald's face. His whole body was wrapped in black, and the battle armor on his hand extended claws, glowing coldly.

"Walk."

Archibald gave a command in a low voice, and Monta moved at the same time, one man and one beast coordinated and attacked towards Yaqing.

However, when they approached, the embodied soul power on Yaqing's body was not as lukewarm as before, but suddenly surged to resist their attacks.

When Yaqing's manifested soul power soared, the soul beast's reaction finally reached the point where it triggered the space confinement device that the army had planted nearby in advance.

Only a few muffled "buzzing" sounds were heard, and a white light screen suddenly swelled up from the ground like soap bubbles, covering most of the void in an instant.It just happened to wrap several people in it.

Yang Yang, who was standing in the protective cover, let out a sigh of relief—the device was triggered, and Yaqing could not leave with the power of the soul beast's space, and backup would come soon.
