"boom--" With a flash of red light, Perlis once again dodged Yelena's diving attack, and the factor energy explosion burst out beside her. This was the umpteenth time. “Huh…Haaa…Huh…” Perlis was panting heavily, and sweat gradually covered her forehead. Running barefoot on the ground for a long time was already painful, and the broken ground in the square made it increasingly difficult for her to move freely barefoot on it. "What's wrong? [Pure White Flame], where is the momentum that wanted to kill me before?" Yelena was suspended in mid-air, overlooking Perlis. "Other Federation bastards would carry a gun anyway. Are you the only idiot who thinks you can handle everything with just a knife?" "Shut up!" Perlis cursed, she flashed upwards and slashed with her sword, but Ye Lina dodged it easily. She fell to the ground in a mess, and her feet were instantly pierced by stone fragments, causing her great pain. "Ahhh...it hurts..." Perlis jumped up in pain and quickly found a relatively flat ground to stand on.
"Are you ready to face your end? A lackey of the Federation?" The greatsword in Ye Lina's hand reflected the sunlight. "Any last words?" Perlis raised her head and stared at Yelena. "Where is Ivar Sekepas?" "Oh?" Hearing Perlis's question, Ye Lina's expression suddenly became unpredictable for a moment, and then she opened her mouth: "Are these your last words? For a self-serving federal lackey, isn't that a bit..." "I'm asking you..." Perlis said word by word, "Where is Ivar Sekepas?" “Hahaha..Interesting…” Ye Lina laughed unrestrainedly as if she had seen something extremely ridiculous. "Although I don't know why you are looking for that fence-sitter, I can tell you that the [Scavenger] is on the snowy mountain..." Ye Lina swung the sword in her hand, making a buzzing sound. "But... you don't have a chance to go up again." After saying that, Yelena dived towards Perlis again, raising her greatsword—— "boom--" Just like countless times before, Perlis dodged to the side, but this time, she calmly slowed down the time in her eyes, and when Yelena passed by her, she aimed at her wings and swung a knife - "Shhh-" The sharp blade chopped off Yelena's wings, and a red arc of electricity burst out along with the shock wave—— “Ugh!?” Ye Lina's wings trembled slightly, and she staggered to the ground. Just as she stood firm, Perlis rushed up and swung three knives -
"Dang——dang——dang——" The butterfly knife chopped on the blade of the greatsword, leaving one burning crack after another underneath. Yelena barely used the greatsword to defend against Perlis's attack, but she could not withstand her extremely fast movements. She kept blocking passively and had no chance to take the initiative to attack. "Aaaaaah!" Perlis yelled, her slashing movements increasing in speed. Gradually, the speed of the butterfly knife exceeded the speed of Yelena's defense. Perlis seized this blind spot, turned sideways, and slashed towards Yelena's waist: "Ugh!!" Ye Lina screamed in pain. There was a cut on her side. The burning sensation and blood flowed onto the silver-white armor. "Damn.." Yelena quickly leaped back and swung her sword, forcing Perlis to dodge backwards, and then the two of them fell into a stalemate again. "What a fast speed..." Ye Lina was breathing heavily, her waist felt like it was burning. Even though the previous war of attrition had made [Pure White Flame] extremely exhausted, she would probably run out of strength if she continued like this. Thinking of this, Yelina spread her wings and wanted to fly into the sky again. "Just stay still!" Perlis roared, followed a streak of red light and rushed towards Yelena, and was in front of her in an instant. Seeing that the butterfly knife was about to pierce her chest, Yelena gritted her teeth and fiercely smashed the big sword into the ground under her feet - "boom--" The energy exploded, and Perlis was pushed back several steps by the shock wave. Ye Lina was blown directly into the air. She forced herself not to faint, and then kept her wings open, pulling her body into the sky with some shakiness. Good... that was a close call... Ye Lina coughed up a mouthful of blood. Although the explosion of the factor energy just now became the boost for her to fly into the sky, it also caused a lot of damage to her internal organs. It can be said that it was a very uneconomical deal. But Ye Lina had to keep a distance. Once she was involved in a ground battle, Ye Lina was completely a fish on the chopping board, and was held tightly by Perlis. Ye Lina turned her head to check her wings. A red melt mark ran across the wing, dividing the silver wings. She was able to seize such a fleeting opportunity to cause harm to herself. This damn white-haired girl, she really can't be underestimated... Ye Lina lowered her head and issued a command to the machine: "【Dome Wing】, check the integrity of the body." "Integrity level... , moderate damage." With just a butterfly knife, she had damaged nearly 40% of the integrity of the [Dome Wings]. Even the warlords during the unification war had never put Yelena in such a tough fight. It seemed that she really couldn't afford to waste time any longer. Yelena was suspended in mid-air, looking down at Perlis, thinking in her mind that if she could use that terrifying reaction power to hit her wings a few more times, she would probably be completely trapped in a ground battle like the one just now, where she was at a complete disadvantage. It's time to use [that]. Yelena aimed at Perlis and pretended to dive again. "Be prepared, [Pure White Fireworks]!" Perlis didn't say anything, but just stared at Yelena. She watched the figure falling from the sky and swooping towards her, and calculated the time to dodge. However, when Yelena was about to touch the ground, she suddenly raised her altitude: "Eh?" Perlis was stunned. She watched Yelena pull upwards, and her wings suddenly spread out, stirring up a near-ground storm. Blown by the storm, Perlis saw Yelena pointing the tip of the greatsword at her.
In an instant, Perlis understood Yelena's intention. "That great sword..." Every time the sword hit the ground, there would be a factor energy explosion. Perlis originally thought it was just a simple kinetic weapon. Now think about it carefully. If this sword can create factor energy explosion, then its structure must have a complete factor energy excitation system. In other words... This greatsword is much more than just a greatsword. "Hors..." As Yelena groaned, the tip of the giant sword unfolded, revealing the muzzle filled with factor energy. The blue factor energy light was blending with the sunlight of Loton, making a "buzzing" sound in the air. Perlis tried to dodge to the side, but at this distance, it was too late - "boom---" The bombardment from the tip of the giant sword hit the ground at Perlis's feet. Perlis made a slightly surprised sound, and was thrown to a stone pillar scattered on the ground with the bursting factor energy shock wave. The factor shield withstood the first wave of explosions, but finally couldn't withstand the impact of hitting the stone pillar and shattered. "Ugh!!" Perlis screamed in pain, and her soft body slowly slid down the stone pillar to the ground. Even though the factor shield withstood most of the damage, severe pain still came from every part of her body. Perlis struggled to stand up, but her limbs were only trembling slightly, and she had no strength at all. “Ah… ah… it hurts…” Perlis opened her eyes with difficulty, and reflected in her red pupils was the shadow of the lofty "Angel" and the increasingly bright light of factor energy. "Look at how miserable you are, [Pure White Fireworks]" Yelena controlled her wings and slowly floated towards Perlis, hovering above her, looking down at her from above. The energy cannon [Hors] mounted on the giant sword is her last trump card. If it is exposed at the beginning of the battle, it will probably be easily avoided with the speed of [Pure White Flame]. Therefore, Ye Lina chose a not-so-understanding sneak attack. But what does it matter? Her long-cherished wish is before her, and she is about to fulfill it. What does it matter whether the means are despicable or not? "Lesev Gonchanev, remember this name." Yelena aimed the cannon in her hand at Perlis who was lying on the ground. The blue factor energy gathered at the tip of the cannon. The night two years ago appeared in front of her again. The two girls who took her brother's life stood in Loton and turned into two phantoms, overlapping with the unconscious girl in front of her. Federals, all deserve to die. The blue energy was buzzing. Yelena looked down at Perlis from above, her lips slightly parted: "Hors" Perlis watched as the light of the Factor Energy Cannon grew stronger and stronger. For some reason, the flickering Factor Energy light reminded her of the scene when she witnessed the attack of the Tower of Babel on Charon. For the first time, the powerlessness and despair in the face of death were exposed before Perlis without any concealment. In the light, Perlis seemed to see Edward's back. "Ah..." Perlis whispered softly, her voice trembling, "..Daddy..." She slowly stretched out a weak hand towards the light, and a tear ran down her cheek.
Seeing this, Ye Lina showed a sick smile. A Babel Blade with such a desperate and embarrassed look, isn't this what she wanted to see for so long? “Hahahahaha!” Yelena laughed crazily. “Cry, despair, and then pay for Lesev’s life! Little bitch!” Then, Yelena thrust the giant sword forward with a ferocious look on her face and pulled the trigger. At the same time, a gunshot was heard from the other side of the square. "bang" The moment the factor energy cannon was activated, a blue factor bullet cut through the air and hit Ye Lina's wings squarely. "What!?" A big hole was punched in Ye Lina's wing joint, and electric sparks spurted out from the break. Her posture in the air tilted, and the factor energy cannon fired deviated towards the Saint Halberd Hotel nearby. "boom--" The hotel's glass windows were shattered by the shock wave caused by the huge explosion, and the shock wave was accompanied by rain of glass fragments falling down. "Damn...who is——" Ye Lina used her hands to block the glass fragments that fell from the sky, and tried her best to maintain her posture in the air. After she stabilized herself, Ye Lina looked at the ground, her eyes suddenly widened - "It's me, Pace Monarch!!" Pace shouted exaggeratedly, holding a revolver loaded with [Factor Energy Bullet] in his hand, with smoke coming out of the muzzle. Seeing that his sneak attack was effective, Pace immediately threw away the empty revolver, then quickly ran to Perlis and picked up the unconscious her. "Give me the way!!!" Accompanied by an incomprehensible weird cry, Pace immediately shot a grappling hook toward the roof of a nearby building and fled with Perlis in his arms. "You, the sinful descendant of the Monarch family!!!" Ye Lina was so angry that she wanted to chase after him, but her wings that were hit trembled out of control and made her fall towards a building nearby. "Ahhhhh!!!" Amid the screams of [Angel of the Iron Guard] Ekaterina Goncharova, she gracefully fell into the window of a nearby residential building. ...... When Perlis's blurry consciousness gradually became clear, what she saw was the back of Pace's head. "Ah..." Perlis groaned, "You..." "Don't despise me now, little princess," Pace ran breathlessly, "I finally got rid of that vicious elder sister, I have to run away quickly." Under the rain-filled eaves of Lorton, Pace was running quickly with Perlis on his back. Under the sunshine of Lorton, the two figures seemed somewhat out of place. “Oh… it hurts…” Perlis murmured, and a wave of dizziness surged over her head again. In a trance, she seemed to see a familiar shadow. "..Dad...no..don't go..." After saying that, Perlis fell into coma again and collapsed on Pace's back, motionless.
"I never thought...you actually have such a weak side. I thought you had been turned into a pure killing machine by the Federation." Pace laughed bitterly. He kept running, occasionally using the grappling hook in his hand to pull his body to the next section of the eaves. The Thebits used such a large force to capture Perlis, and unfortunately, Pess was involved with her. It seemed that even if he didn't want to be tied to Perlis, he had no way out. Now there are only two options left: use Perlis to take back Monarch Manor, prove the Monarch family to the Iron Lord, and obtain pardon; or stay in Loton and wait to be eliminated by the [Infinite Steel Legion]. "It's a one-way ticket, little princess." While running, Pace looked towards the Wanren Mountain. Countless needle-shaped snow peaks cast huge shadows on Loton, like some kind of giant beast spreading tremendous oppressive force on the earth. "Like you said, don't die." ...END...
