【Qijie】The Kingdom of Eternal Life

BGM: Ballad of the Seven Tribulations - Mingyue

The tower glows brilliantly in the night, as if the sun had fallen on the earth.

The fish that slipped through the net have basically been killed, and a few high-level people are left alive to prepare for confession. The state of emergency has been lifted, and the lights of the high tower have gradually dimmed.Kurapika was about to tell Hanzo to call it a day when they suddenly heard the faint sound of a motor stirring the propeller from the sky.

He raised his eyebrows suspiciously, and glanced at the starless night sky.He was slightly injured in the battle just now, Leori was grabbing his arm for emergency treatment, his movement affected the wound, the doctor shouted dissatisfiedly: "Patient, please cooperate with your work!"

Kurapika withdrew his hand speechlessly, and said, "Go and deal with others, and leave me alone."

Leorio: "Hey! Kurapika—"

The remaining words of the doctor were shattered in the strong wind that fell from the sky. The jet-black helicopter hovered slowly on the ground. Eyes, the stretcher carrying the prisoner almost hit the wall.

Leorio stared at the helicopter, looked at the blond guide standing in front of him, and shouted again: "Kurapica?!"

Kurapika didn't answer, he took a few steps forward and looked at the helicopter that belonged to the big drug lord that went back and forth.There are bullet marks on the fuselage of the helicopter, which is the one he shot.

What is Sendrick doing back here?It can't be a self-inflicted trap, right?

He waved his wrist hidden behind his back and made a gesture. The sentinels and guides entered into a fighting state, and the ninja quietly lurked into the night. , far above the tower, Bokur's finger caught the trigger.

The director of the intelligence department asked politely: "Which honored guest is this?"

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the helicopter was silent for a few seconds, and then the scarred hatch opened with a creak.

A human body rolled out of it.

Kurapika took a closer look. He had a short shaved head, a bit fierce eyes, and a pocket watch hanging around his neck. Who is it?

... The big drug lord is really thinking about it, come back to accept legal punishment?

Before he could ask again, another man rolled out.Then came another, and another, and another, each of whom was recorded in the tower's criminal record file and issued an arrest warrant. The heinous criminals lay unconscious one after another like arhats, Stacked high in front of the helicopter.

Everyone looked at each other.

In this silence, Kurapika had no choice but to raise the volume a little: "Uh... who is it, please? Is it convenient for Fang to come out?"

In the helicopter cabin, Yalujia held up the hem of her skirt and asked Yi Erfan: "I'll go down and tell you, brother, won't you go down?"

Il fans glanced at Kurapika outside the cabin, thought for a while, kicked the last drug lord down:

"No, the blond guy outside said he was going to sue me, I don't want to lose money."

Yalujia tilted her head, turned her head and jumped off the helicopter lightly with her skirt lifted, and lightly landed in front of a large group of unconscious men, and happily said to everyone in the tower under semi-martial law: "Beat the enemy express!" ——This is the entrustment of Miss Daisy Blaze, please accept it for her."

Chiya backed away sharply.

The swift wind almost scratched his cheek, bringing a slight tingling sensation.This movement was a bit too large, involving the wound on his back, and he frowned, but this did not prevent him from continuing to walk and run in a space that was so wide that it could almost be called a vast space.

With Jack chasing him within a few millimeters, Kiya often had to stop and fight him.He crossed his arms, Xiaojie punched him on the arm, the huge impact shattered the wall behind him, Qi Ya felt a light sound from his right hand, followed by the long-lost pain.

This is actually nothing.In the first ten years or so of Qi Ya's life as a killer, he encountered a devastating pain that was far more unbearable than this.He let go without changing his expression. There was a wall behind him. He stepped on the wall with his toes, grabbed Xiaojie's wrist with one hand, and swept his body like a dexterous feline with the remaining force of stepping on the wall, and jumped to Xiaojie. Behind him, the system grabbed his arm and tripped him down.

But now it's different from what he's been through.

The black-haired young man glanced at him indifferently and blankly, even with this "look" action, his pupils did not move or change in any way.In the next breath, he propped up his elbows slightly, and he removed his hand bones without any hesitation, and a soft click sound was heard in Qiya's ears, and for a moment it was nothing more than a thunderbolt.

He had never been so flustered before, he let go subconsciously, almost in the blink of an eye, Xiaojie jumped up from the ground, connected the dislocated arm without blinking, and raised his arm to attack again with a blank expression. .

Qi Ya dodged those stormy attacks in a distraught manner, there was no way to retreat, and he could only run again.

Xiaojie's fighting ability has been explosively improved, speed, strength, and instant explosive power. If he doesn't seem to have lost his mind and only knows how to fight blindly, Qi Ya is really not sure if he can survive his violent attack without getting hurt. He searched for a way to bring him back.

Without thinking about it, Xiaojie must have been injected with that kind of neurotoxin drug, which can be used to extract his mental fragments.And according to what Daisy told him, the damage of this toxin is...

almost irreversible.

Xiaojie's mental fragments were taken away by that scumbag Strange - but the irrational Xiaojie kept chasing and attacking him, and Chiya couldn't get away to chase Strange back.Now he doesn't know where Strange is, nor does he know how to temporarily stop Xiaojie who is going berserk, and he is in a dilemma for a while.

Damn it... Where is that bastard Strange?

Strange held the small bottle, he felt the blood all over his body was flowing to his limbs, his brain felt chilly intermittently, and even his breathing was somewhat difficult.He looked down and saw that the simply bandaged chest wound was bleeding again, and the gauze had been dyed red.

There was no time to bandage again.Even if Qiya can be temporarily held back, it is impossible to hold him forever. As soon as tonight's incident came out, it was only a few hours before the tower headquarters got the news—Sendrick, who had made an appointment, had not yet arrived. Most likely it was an accident to come to the appointment.A wise man would miss a thousand things, let alone a mortal like him.

Strange stepped over a corpse in a white coat—the tree fell and the monkeys scattered. After the leader’s accident, panic is inevitable. In reality, there are very few Frankensteins in the movie who are desperate to study and indulge in it. When Qi Ya pressed those reformers to fight, half of them ran away. Later, Xiao Jie came out and attacked indiscriminately, and even ran away the remaining half.

But how could he let these people who knew his secret continue to live carefree?

Even these white coats don't know that the neurotoxin they are increasingly studying and taking for granted can be ingested through the respiratory tract.In the room they studied, the toxin-containing air is quietly sent in every once in a while. This method has a small amount of intake each time, and it has a long incubation period, so basically it cannot be sensed. arrive.

But no matter how long the incubation period is, by now, it should be about to break out.The mental power of ordinary people is too weak. Once this poison occurs, they basically die cleanly. Even if the strength is different, but because the difference is not too big, the time of death will not be too far behind.

So no one stopped him, and no one helped him.

He is lonely, full of sins, even on the verge of serious injury and shock.The wound on the chest was torn, and a large group of red marks appeared from the gauze, dripping to the ground.

His time is really running out.Either physically or situationally.

He couldn’t wait anymore, and neither could Zooey.

Last night, Zoe's attending doctor gave him a critical illness notice. The rescue operation lasted from [-]:[-] pm last night until now. It has been more than nine hours, but the doctor still has no definite news.His poor, little child, alone on the white and cold operating table, in the place where his mother was taken away, I don't know how terrified he must be.At this time, he should have waited outside the operating room, but he couldn't help it. He had to grab a little hope of life for Zooey here.

There must be time.

He must quickly...

ASAP!

He took a rough breath, gripped the steering wheel with his left hand, and stepped on the accelerator.The car flew out like an arrow from the string, rushing out of the bright underground garage all the way.Outside the garage is vast darkness, as terrifying as if it could bite people.

People come from this darkness, walk into that light, and when the light burns out, they return to the darkness again.

The moment he was about to step out of the garage, Strange blinked and saw a person in the rearview mirror standing silently and straight in the bright garage.The next second, he moved.

The speed of the car is extremely fast, but he is approaching quickly!

Long silver hair - it's Kate!

What's the matter, his restraint wristbands? !

It was only then that Strange remembered that since the white coats were all dead, the controlling effect of the restraint straps would naturally no longer exist.The former chief who had been transformed into a fighting machine lost control, lost his shackles, and without the chains that restrained him, he naturally bared his fangs to the culprit.

Kate sprinted like a snowfield wolf chasing thousands of miles away. His physique and explosive power, which had been transformed to the peak of human beings, made him almost catch up with a car a hundred yards away. Strange immediately put the reverse gear on and drove to At full speed, the car engine made a rumbling sound and hit him.

boom! ! !

The car roared ferociously, piercingly tormenting the ear bones, and the loud noise came from behind the car. The huge inertia forced from extreme speed to stillness tore Strange's chest, and the blood smeared out of the gauze more and more. Tick-tock landed on the car seat.Strange's current physical fitness can't bear this kind of violent sudden stop. He felt that his brain and ear water were almost dried up like a drum washing machine by the extreme dizziness. Vomited in the car.

In the next second, a black shadow passed by, and the silver-haired man who stopped a car [-] yards away with his bare hands flipped over from the back of the car like a dexterous beast, and landed on the front cover of the car with a slam, with long silver hair falling down in all directions.He looked at Strange through the transparent front window, his eyes were as deep as lacquer, as if staring into the abyss and the huge sea.

Strange tightly held the small bottle and stared at him, the sweat in his palm made the body of the small bottle hot, and the bright red crystal powder in the bottle shone like blood, as beautiful as the most gorgeous night sky A bunch of fireworks solidified and shattered a handful of broken lights.

Kate raised her hand, and her slender, white hand suddenly pierced through the bulletproof glass. The front window glass crackled and cracked in all directions, and a small cross hanging on the rearview mirror shook violently.

The second the glass splashed, Strange suddenly raised his other hand, squeezed the trigger, and emptied the pistol.

He can't fall here.Someone else is waiting for him.Death could never take Zoe from his life again.

……Oh God.Bless his children, bless Zoe.

The bullets burst out, intertwined with each other into sparks, and the smoke was like a net.

Qi Ya supported the handrail of the stairs, exerted strength with one arm, hung half of his body in the air, and suddenly hooked up the stairs, and continued to run up when he landed.The wind of Xiaojie's fist almost brushed against the hair on the back of his head and slammed across, bending the steel guardrail into a zigzag and sharp right angle.

They had already left the laboratory that was half the size of a football field, because the walls had been smashed, and Xiaojie's attack was too aggressive, Qi Ya had no time to choose a direction, so he could only go up blindly.

In this thought-provoking escape, in the chaotic panting that couldn't find the rhythm, there were a few scattered moments, and Qi Ya had the illusion that "there are only two of them in the world".

Strange didn't know where he went. After Xiaojie's indiscriminate carpet attack started, even the terrified white coats also ran away.Although there were a large number of reformers, without their white coats, they continued to be released, and they could only sleep unconsciously in the nutrition cabin, exhaling and breathing with the light green nutrient solution.This tall tower pierces the heart of the sky like a sharp sword, brightly lit, like a burning city of fire.In this humble world that was extremely silent, only the two of them were still struggling and running for their lives, sweating, and every movement and breath was only related to each other.

But Qi Ya didn't want such "aloneness" at all.

It's not that he can't handle such a high-intensity battle.Although, as a former assassin who is proficient in various concealment and assassination techniques, he is really not very good at dealing with this kind of fighting style that is head-on and open-ended, and because of injuries and inability to fight back, he is not in the best condition.But Qi Ya has experienced a battle that is far more brutal and urgent than this in the objective sense, and now the danger is more dangerous, but because Xiaojie has no mind, he can still handle it to some extent.

But that sharp pain like Ling Chi still strokes his heart slowly, slowly and cruelly to the extreme, caressing every inch of nerve endings and every drop of hot blood that cannot be cooled by drinking ice, like a lonely and rampant battle The tsunami raised the word "Xiaojie" high above the waves, and submerged him in it unscrupulously.

He could no longer say that name himself.

And after all... the owner of this name has long since heard him calling him.

In fact, although Xiaojie didn't say anything, Qiya can actually observe that he likes to call his name after living together during this period of time—maybe it's because Xiaojie himself likes to call him by his name. , relatively, he seems to like him calling his name very much.

This conclusion is not supported by any actual theory or data.It's purely a vague feeling from Qi Ya:

Every time he calls his name, when Xiaojie turns his head or raises his eyes, the long eyelashes are lifted up, revealing a pair of bright, honey-colored eyes that seem to hide stars.He always watched Qi Ya speak very intently, as if the opening and closing of his lips was also a great event, and he had to stare at it carefully and carefully for a second.

And if Li Qiya called his name in the dialogue, he would bend the corners of his lips, lower his eyelashes a little bit, and blink, but the light in his eyes did not dim at all, as if his eyes were filled with honey. There are a hundred bright lights floating in the lake, burning and burning, always burning.

Although Qi Ya noticed it before, but because he was not sure, he didn't think about it too much. If Xiaojie wanted to keep staring at him, he kept staring back.

But later, he learned from Kurapika that only mutual liking can increase the bonding rate between sentinels and guides who have been spiritually bonded. On the contrary, he became a little unaccustomed to his gaze, and when he was stared at like this again, he always I can't help but look away, or focus my eyes on Xiaojie's small nose or the corners of his lips—in short, if he looks at Xiaojie for more than five seconds, he will start to feel shy.

After all, if I stare at him for a long time, Qi Ya can't help but think that he keeps looking at me like this because he likes me.

Maybe...it's also because he likes me, that's why he especially likes me calling him by his name.

Just thinking about it like this makes his heart feel hot as if it is about to melt, and his well-known calmness and meticulousness has become a soft-boiled egg in the shape of a cloud, and in a blank space, stars are holding him, bang bang The dancing golden love is uncontrollably ready to come out at the slightest touch.

Look, he has reduced himself to the point of using soft-boiled eggs as a metaphor, which can be seen from the fact that his mind is full of ecstasy.

It's just that at the same time, I feel a little bit annoyed: Why isn't this guy shy?

Probably for Jay Freeze, being shy was out of the question.Maybe it's impossible in this life.

... I don't know whether that guy knew that he liked him too, or he didn't think about it at all, and he just did whatever he wanted.

People can't help but pay more attention to all aspects and details of their crush.At least Qi Ya himself is like this.When communicating with the other party, if it wasn't because of impoliteness, he would always want to pin his eyes on the other party, and just shut him in his eyes or in his heart so that he can't go anywhere.

…Now that I think about it, it would be great if I could do this, or even do it earlier.

Qi Ya took a deep breath, and then let it out forcefully.

Ok.

He turned around and bowed, avoiding Xiaojie's calf, his knees were slightly bent, and he stepped on the wall with the power of the bounce.They destroyed a large number of statues and decorations along the way, the vase was broken, the flower branches lay fragmented on the pools of water, and the scarlet petals fell off, like the red eyes of a girl crying.Qi Ya rushed towards an angel with half of his wings broken, as if he wanted to incarnate half of his wings, and like a falling white bird, he turned directly out of the window with half of the stained glass broken.

A gust of wind and a steel knife on the sky-high building rushed toward us, and outside the window was an abyss-like night, and the dark ground was dotted with several dim lights. Qi Ya stepped on the window sill with his strength, and Xiaojie came out of it almost in the next second. After following him, he probably didn't expect that there was nothing in the sky outside, his footsteps wobbled, and he almost fell straight away, almost making his heart skip a beat when he saw Qi Ya.But he hooked his toes somewhere, bent down slightly, and instantly adjusted his balance in a strange posture, and began to attack Qi Ya at high speed against the cold and severe wind from high above.

Qi Ya evaded his attack, and fought back gently in the rushing high-altitude cold air.They ran up the vertical steel cliff one after the other, and their figures flashed into two afterimages. Occasionally, Xiaojie's fists missed and hit the wide wall made of special alloy, smashing out spider webs The crack's depression of more than ten square meters broke the exquisitely designed world rattan pattern on the wall, revealing the piles of broken bricks inside.No one paid any attention to this, they continued to dodge each other's attacks narrowly and narrowly at this high altitude, the biting night wind swept over the tip of the hair and the tip of the nose, dyeing the dripping night into the two pairs of eyeballs looking at each other.

Eventually they climbed to the top of the tower.

The division design of the tower is different from that of the tower, probably because Strange believes in gods, this silver tower is full of decorations related to the gods.It wasn't until the top of the tower that no one had ever been before that Qiya discovered that there was even a huge cross here.

When he turned around, he found that Xiaojie was stepping on the last brick. His shirt was blood-stained and badly torn, as if he had a silk map of mountains and rivers scattered on his body.Qi Ya always thought that it was an injury that had been healed by the nutrition cabin before or that it came from someone else's blood. Until now, under the cold starlight, he could vaguely see a string of blood dripping from the hem of the shattered rag. , leaving a series of shocking red marks on the top of the tower.

Before he had time to check where he was injured, Xiaojie stepped on the ground.

At an altitude of tens of meters.

Even at this moment when other people would have been yelling hysterically, probably because the toxin had already wiped out all his emotions, his handsome face was almost indifferent, as if he didn't know or didn't care what he was going to do next. It will fall in seconds, and it will be smashed into a mess of meat sauce in tens of seconds.

He just opened his mouth slightly instinctively, without even yelling, and silently raised his hand forward, as if trying to grab something——

So Chiya grabbed him.

Qi Ya was very sure that his heart stopped beating completely in those few seconds, and it was only at this moment that he started beating crazily for the rest of his life, thump, thump, thud, as if his chest had become a big drum, and all his emotions All the beings on it sang the big show in turn, and finally the fragile organ finally stood firm in the heart after being shocked, and then tremblingly rested the mind to stop beating.

It only took a few seconds, but he seemed to have passed the days like years.

This - bastard! ! !
