[Sword III] Seeking Wings

"Little brother, you might as well go a little further and take the two of them to the stone wall in the south, so that the terrain will not be affected by our battle."

Seeing that Modin was dragging the bodies of Tang Xiaoyi and Chi Xiao to the distance, Kuwacham didn't stop him, but reminded him.

Modin went as he said, and after putting the two of them down, he turned around and went to another shadow behind the tree, hiding away.

In Kuvatsam's view, this soft-tempered teenager was obviously frightened by the previous lovers' rebellion, and he didn't want to be in the only safest place with the bloody corpses of his two former teammates.And the dense forest outside the clearing here is full of berserk mace soldiers, and he has no ability to escape alone.

"...Then, two generals, come on." Turning his head to confirm Modin's position, Kuvatsam stood up with a solemn expression, and saluted the opponent in front of him.

Cang's father and Jun's mother looked at each other, and also restrained their expressions, and returned with Cang Yun and Tian Ce's military salute.

The next moment, both sides had their weapons in their hands, and they stepped forward quickly. In an open space dozens of feet square, the sharp edge was suddenly blazing, and the strong wind roared.

The three of them are all in close combat, every move and every style are all staggered, metal and iron clashing.Although there is no coldness of the sword, and no treacherous mechanism, in the eyes of Modin from a distance, these swords, spears, fists and kicks that are both horizontal and vertical like battle formations, and so dexterous that they almost dazzle him, seem more and more powerful and thrilling .

What made him particularly noticeable was that it was clearly the first time that Father Cang and Jun Niang had fought side by side so directly, yet their cooperation was as if they were old partners who had been working hand in hand for many years. It can be completed seamlessly without any words or gestures.Based on years of experience in watching camp fights, Modin could see that the martial arts of the two were not very high, but at this time they cooperated with each other, and they seemed to have the power of the top powerhouses, and they were invincible.

Kuvatsam, however, is simply too strong.

In other words, compared to the battle between him and Tang Xiaoyi that Modin had personally witnessed before, now he is really going all out.

Half a quarter of an hour later, Cang's father and Jun's mother were both wounded several times.Although the two wisely conserved their energy and focused on defense, their actions gradually became more difficult as they lost blood.

But their opponents had almost no loss, and their offensive was still merciless, and their moves were deadly at this time.

Seeing this, Modin, who was on the sidelines, widened his eyes nervously, and almost leaned out from the bushes to remind him directly.

——He heard that the defenders of the strongholds of the two camps had arrived at the edge of the forest to stand by. Why would a sane and transparent leader, at a moment when the situation is difficult to turn back, and life and death are on the line, would disregard the overall situation in a bloody battle alone, insisting on refusing to call the reinforcements he had already arranged.

Modin straightened up, and when he was about to gesture to the two of them and speak, the rampant wolf tooth soldiers approaching vaguely in the forest came into view.

These spike soldiers still had black complexions and stiff movements, but their eyes were no longer completely dim like they were a few days ago.

——Because they are paying attention to their leader.

Although the ray of light in the eyes of the living puppets was very faint, Modin was enough to see clearly the sincere concern and tension in it.

Obviously, if the main general is in danger, they will sacrifice their lives with inhuman violence to protect each other.

It is also obvious that as long as the general gives an order, they will immediately fight for him with the purest madness and bravery until the death.

Facing such a powerful enemy, even if all the troops stationed in the stronghold are invested, it is almost impossible to win.

Therefore, the two faction leaders intend to sacrifice themselves first.

And Kuvatsam on the opposite side is really fulfilling this gentleman's duel.

Obviously he could instruct the violent wolf tooth soldiers to destroy the opponent in an instant, but he never did so. Instead, he always restrained his subordinates not to participate.And once any soldier strayed into the opponent's attack range, he would definitely abandon the attack and save with all his strength, even at the expense of exposing his flaws in front of the opponent.

Therefore, this absurd duel with great disparity in strength and not in line with any strategic considerations has miraculously continued to this day.

...It seems that in this dark forest isolated from the world, where all attitudes and "righteousness" no longer exist, these three generals who used to be cunning and cunning finally let go of the layers of camouflage that their "duty" required them to wear .

——Finally being able to sincerely and "stupidly" go back to the oldest gentleman's ritual that has long been deposited outside of time.

"...Actually, none of you are bad."

Seeing the three of them displaying martial arts head-on to the death, the intertwined sharpness and bloody light became more and more intense, and the tension in Modin's heart, which was originally disturbed by the struggle between good and evil, gradually faded away.

All that was left was waves of growing sorrow.

He was stunned for a moment, and his silent eyes curled back behind the tree, only to feel that those sharp and majestic spears and knives, which were enough to catch the eyes, were also like the decisive battle between Tang Xiaoyi and Chi Xiao before—and their present It's the same as his dead body, it's unbearable to look at it again.

- I don't want it to happen again.

From the current perspective, Modin could only see the faint metallic reflection of the Chixiao Honglian sword blade in his pocket.

Just now, they have lost all their brilliance, but now, they have started to appear clear blue again.

——And just like the experience in the previous journey, as long as he got close to them, the turbulent emotions in his heart, which were originally panic and sorrow, immediately calmed down inexplicably and quickly.

"You two...really..." After pondering for a moment, Modin glanced towards the stone wall.

He understood what was going on.

I also understand what I should do.

Thinking back to the first step in life that he took to atone for Miss Xiangxiu and prevent the tragedy with his own hands, Modin clenched his fingers little by little and raised his head again.

At this time, Kuwatsam was completely knocking down Cang Dad and Jun Niang who were already exhausted.

"...Actually, if you hadn't followed the imperial court's intention to kill each other and kill each other in recent years, even if the main force went to Ziyuan Mountain, the border guards should have enough troops to fight our army in the forest."

Looking at the two opponents who clearly could no longer stand up, but were still holding each other side by side, struggling to hold the weapons in their hands, and looked at the stone wall covering the two corpses in the distance, Kuvatsam sighed:

"Unfortunately, the two of you really can't let go of your hatred——

Therefore, it is not allowed to be a hero in Taiping, but to die together in the hands of the enemy. "

"I have admired the martial arts of the Central Plains since I was a child, and now I join the army in Langya, because I don't want this great river and lake to become a purgatory on earth. Don't worry, you two, when our army changes dynasties and the rivers and mountains are reorganized, I will definitely let the Central Plains Wulin respond again. Some peace." He solemnly held up the long knife, "—please rest in peace."

The moment the blade was about to fall, a figure in the forest rushed towards him.

Poisoning tricks.

Kuwacham looked in surprise at this ordinary soldier who pushed the military lady away at the very moment, making his killer move fail.

The military lady recognized him.

A few months ago, in a battle where the faction cooperated with Shence to repel the Spike, she saved the coward who was trembling before the battle and was almost killed by the enemy soldiers.

At this time, he was not sober because of the evil spirit, and his instinctive timidity was particularly obvious. Back then, he dared to face the enemy head-on, but now he only had a photo with Kuwacham, and he was so frightened that he threw his weapon on the spot , Even rolling and crawling, he fled back to the depths of the forest.

——But at the same time, he also deeply remembered and imprinted his life-saving grace in his bones.

In this forest where the subconscious mind has been magnified hundreds of times, Baoen took the lead in driving his actions, even surpassing timidity.

Looking at the figure of the Shence soldier fleeing in a hurry, and recalling the astonishing accuracy and strength of this man when he just pushed the military lady away, Kuvacham was a little stunned for a while.

At this moment, Father Cang was optimistic about the opening, and decisively made a killing move.

Kuvatsam was really caught off guard.

But also did not suffer any harm.

——A rampant mace blocked the attack for him, barely saving him.

With Father Cang's current situation, he was already powerless to defend against any counterattack from the surprise attacker who rushed in front of him.

But the opponent did not continue to do it.

After saving his own general, confirming his safety, and not getting an order to stay, the foreign soldier, who was still unconscious, turned and retreated.

——As if in his instinct, "protection" has become a more important existence than "killing", even, in a state of trance, it is enough to completely cover the latter's control over the body.

...It seems that this forest, which clearly only incites negative demons, suddenly has good intentions, and is using the living puppets it manipulates to firmly prevent irreversible killings from happening in this absurd but righteous duel. Industry.

Facing this miraculous vision, the three people in the open space were stunned for a moment, and none of them made any further moves.

"...Probably in the eyes of "inhuman" living puppets, we, the sober human beings, are fighting each other here, which is the real stupid killing each other."

After a long silence, Father Cang suddenly said:

"And you claim to resolve the hatred, but it doesn't work. The only way to fight is to increase the blood debt? It's just to concentrate the hatred among the people in the rivers and lakes, and turn it against you and your companions—even your hometown. "

Hearing the word hometown, Kuvatsam suddenly shook his fingertips.

He turned his head and stared at the distant forest, without answering for a long time.

But when he realized that Cang's father and Jun's mother had adjusted their breathing for a moment, and they were supporting each other and got up again, he gritted his teeth again and raised his weapon again.

Until the next moment, a slender "stop" sounded behind him.

Kuvatsam turned his head and saw Modin leaving the shadow of the tree where he was hiding and running towards the location of the three of them.

The boy's face was still pale from fear, and there was even a trembling cry in his voice, but he didn't flinch from his rapid steps.

And behind him, there are hundreds of live puppets, with tricks and fangs, who are stepping into the open space with him.

——and stood between the three fighting, completely separating them.

Everyone stood still, with their weapons back in their sheaths, clearly in a posture of mediation and protection.

Kuvatsam looked at Modin who was standing in the front, looking up at him without avoiding it.

Under the corner of Modin's eyes, the blue poison mark is spreading.

Apparently, why this ordinary boy who can't manipulate illusion weapons can now affect the actions of living puppets in the forest——

However, using the Chixiao Honglian sword blade he carried as a medium, he actively connected himself to the evil spirit network of the forest, and then used his innate, extremely powerful emotional perception and infection ability to arouse the hearts of the living puppets here, and destroy them. It is also engraved in the heart like killing, the light on the other side.

Therefore, there are no miracles or visions.

It's just an ordinary person who was once timid and cowardly, and now has no combat power, finally stood in front of a strong man who could easily kill him thousands of times, and used his full strength.

And behind these living puppets inspired by kindness, several other people followed the commotion.

——The soldiers who were lured into the forest by poison gas and regained their sobriety on their own.

Most of them came out of the forest to join the battle the day before yesterday, but a few remained to continue to care for their lost comrades.

Among the few people who came now, there were two sober Spike soldiers.

On the collars of their military uniforms, they all wore a jade pendant.

Maple Valley Ruby.

Kuvatsam could see that these pendants were made with bare hands from the minerals in the forest, and the cuts were the unique traces of Shence's knife technique-obviously, this was the result of Shence's strategy after the "conscious humans" formed an alliance here. Gifts given by soldiers to their new comrades.

He suddenly remembered that ten years ago, after traveling in Ziyuan Mountain, he brought this beautiful jade back to his hometown in the bitter cold outside the pass, which attracted countless people to yearn for the warm and rich Central Plains, and finally followed him to join Langya and march into the pass. .

Few of these clansmen share his ideal of rebuilding the rivers and mountains. They just want to be fed and clothed like the Central Plains people, and they can afford beautiful jade jewelry.

Throughout the years of war, the clansmen have occupied many places and lost many companions, but no one has ever obtained the coveted ruby.

Until today.

Kuvatsam was stunned for a moment.

At this moment, the azure blue light of the sword blade in Modin's hand became brighter and brighter. While fading away the poison mark on the young man's face, it also reflected the leaves fluttering in the wind in the forest.In his eyes, it seemed that when he met those two teenagers in Ziyuan Mountain, the maple blossom and starlight that almost blended the world.

Looking at those "resurrected" sword blades, Kuvatsam finally began to understand what he had seen since Chi Xiao pulled him into the illusion.

It was obvious that he had been tricked, but he was not unhappy, he just looked at the sky with a peaceful expression.

Through layers of tree shadows and white clouds, he really saw high above the sky, Tang Xiaoyi and Chi Xiao were driving the mechanism wings, looking down at him from a distance.

——After the reunion, the two cooperated to construct an illusion that was exactly the same as the real forest scenery.In the illusion, both of them are realm masters, so although they will bleed and hurt, and even become corpses temporarily, they are essentially immune to all damage in the illusion, and neither will really die.After the success of the organization, the two immediately let go to kill each other, while misleading the enemy, they also completely ended the past enmity.

Generally speaking, there can only be one master of an illusion, and evenly divided illusion weapons will only interfere with each other, and cannot be effective at the same time.But this couple, who have been in a bond for many years, just broke through such restrictions with deep feelings and trust, and achieved a miracle that was impossible to achieve.

Even, because Kuvatsam was wavering in the center of the illusion and completely exposed his karma with the Landlord when he was a teenager, this top master who could not be controlled is now within the control range of the illusion weapon.

"Long time no see, two little friends."

Looking up at the sky, Kuvatsam raised his eyebrows and smiled, and raised his hands in salute with the attitude of ten years ago.

He could already think of the ultimate goal of their troublesome plan.

Now, he has the same plan.

Watching intently the wing of the mechanism in the air gradually approaching, Tang Xiaoyi was making gestures with difficulty to communicate with Father Cang, Mother Jun, and Modin, and Kuwacham was ready to become a living puppet for their use.

But suddenly he saw that the shape of the machine was roughly the same as Tang Xiaoyi's failed work back then, so much so that he thought he was still in an illusion, on the wing of the mechanism, the core position shone with a golden light.

—— Xuan Jing.

It is purifying the evil spirit of the forest.

With Chi Xiao's skill, it was originally impossible to purify this entire area, but after using a sword to lead it out of the forest and greatly diluting the concentration of the evil spirit, it can already be done.

In the misty forest, Kuvatsam could clearly see the hastily sewn joints on the wing of the mechanism.

In the previous battle, Tang Xiaoyi's mechanism wing was damaged, and now this temporary repaired version was designed by her and Chi Xiao, and the knights from the camp on standby at the edge of the forest worked together to make it.

Originally, it couldn't even take off, it was just a delusion design idea, but after inlaid with mysterious crystals as the core of the mechanism, it can really realize the dreamlike and free flight in complete reality.

"Using Xuan Jing, your organ wing is mine." Kuwacham heard Chi Xiao whispering to Tang Xiaoyi.

——Although they can be immune to the damage in the illusion, the previous injuries of the two have not healed. Therefore, the control of the mechanism wings is almost completely completed by Chi Xiao with the induction force field of the mysterious crystal and the blade.

"—Ha, it's okay, you are mine anyway!" Hearing this, Tang Xiaoyi chuckled, and hugged her lover tightly, "So you have to obey me obediently and go directly to Chunyang for treatment. For the matter, we can leave it to our comrades-in-arms and Little Brother Modin to complete it.

——and the hero Kuvatsam, he will help us, just like ten years ago. "

At this time, the two who had purified nearly half of the forest arrived directly above where Kuwatsam was.

If you want to control him, now is the most suitable opportunity.

But they didn't, they just paid tribute with their eyes and rode the wind away from afar.

And Kuvatsam finally made up his mind at this time.

Hearing Modin's call, he went away in response.

Together with the knights of the camp, they changed the grain truck that had been made into a mechanism five days ago back to its original state, and put on the livestock brought from the stronghold. Tianguang, following the guidance of the organ wings that continue to purify the evil spirit along the way, went straight forward.
