“Ugh… cough cough… ahhh…” The man's facial muscles twitched slightly, and he endured the severe pain that attacked his brain from all over his body... and struggled to pry open his eyelids. The first thing that caught his eye was the azure blue sky that was cut into pieces by the lush, intertwined branches in the woods. The dazzling sunlight seeped through the gaps, stinging his eyeballs and causing some pain. “What…what happened…huh?! Damn it…” The man found that he seemed to be lying flat on the ground, so he subconsciously tried to sit up. But when he tried to move his hands and feet, he was shocked to find that... his limbs were bound by extremely powerful forces. Even with his body that had reached the Yu realm, he was completely unable to disobey it. "What happened...what exactly...happened...what happened..." When he first woke up, his mind was still very confused. He couldn't recall his previous memories at all, and he couldn't figure out why he was in this seemingly dangerous situation. At this moment, he suddenly found three heads popping up at the edge of his vision. “…Lilith?!”
The man recognized one of them at the first moment, and his head immediately buzzed. The whole cause and effect of the whole incident surged up like bubbles in the water, making him remember everything. I followed the plan... and ambush Lilith at the designated location... Because I was well prepared, I had the upper hand for a while... At the last moment, Lilith suddenly took out a strange object from the void... a perfect crimson moon model... Next, his consciousness fell into extreme confusion, and he could not remember what had happened during this period. This strange state lasted for an unknown amount of time before his mind suddenly returned to normal, but was immediately followed by a surging spiritual wave that was like a tsunami, instantly causing him to faint again... And then, it became the current situation. "Damn it... Lilith... You are plotting against me!" Although he didn't quite understand what happened, he was not an idiot and could still guess the most basic reality - He failed. Not only did he fail to kill Lilith as planned, but he was captured alive by her. Even I failed... I guess those people like Dre are almost finished too. "You win this time." The man snorted coldly, closed his eyes, tilted his neck, and said nothing more, with an expression that looked like he had accepted his fate: "Just kill me." "Tell me who you are loyal to, and I can give you a fair enough ending." Seeing the other party's image of an iron-blooded tough guy who would never speak, Lilith sneered, and the original tenderness and gentleness on her face was replaced by a chilling murderous look. In an instant, her temperament changed from a gentle and kind mother to a cold, ruthless, decisive and domineering superior: "Otherwise, you will definitely regret it." "……Ah."
Facing Lilith's extremely serious words, the man remained unmoved, his eyes still closed, with no intention of giving in: "You think I'll give in to your threats?" As soon as he finished speaking, before Lilith could say anything else, his face suddenly turned pale. Qi Ji, who was watching quietly on the side, suddenly said: “He wanted to commit suicide.” "stop!" There was no need for her to remind her. Lilith was only less than half a second slower than Qi Ji before she noticed something was wrong with the man. Her expression changed immediately and she slapped him: "'Sports' are not allowed here!" "boom!" A dull sound was heard, and a deep red light immediately lit up from Lilith's palm, quickly spreading in all directions, trying to completely envelop the man. But it was still half a step too late. In the instant before the scarlet light film completely covered the man's body, a faint blood-red mark suddenly appeared on his neck, circling around his neck in a circle. However, before any further changes could occur, the divine power of the "Ancient Moon" released by Lilith completely enveloped this person, and there was no longer any gap in the crimson light. At this point, the man seemed to be a caterpillar pupating, tightly wrapped in a "cicada pupa" woven with red light. At the same time, everything inside this translucent "silkworm pupa" completely solidified and no longer changed. It's as if time has stood still. "This is a bit difficult." Qi Ji glanced casually at the spectacle before him and said slowly: "Although this guy didn't succeed in dying, he was only a few thousandths of a second away. If you release the current control, he will be beheaded on the spot." "yes……" Lilith's face was solemn. She frowned and stared closely at the blood-red mark on the man's neck. This means that the person has cut off his own head, and the spine and all important nerves and blood vessels have been completely severed. Although the vampires are known for their tenacious vitality, and this person is also a vampire of a very high level, but as long as they have not touched the realm of divinity, they are still mortal creatures and cannot transcend the category of living beings. No matter how powerful you are, if your head is separated... you will still die. If only a little more time had passed, he would have died on the spot. "And the method he used to commit suicide was very special. Not only would it destroy his body, it would also completely annihilate his spirit at the same time..." Qi Ji pointed his finger at the completely frozen man and explained slowly: "If that happens, even if you want to communicate with the spirit world after death, it won't work." With her abilities, it would be quite easy for her to stop a man from committing suicide or to prevent his spirit from self-destructing after his death.
But since we agreed before that we would only have seconds to shoot, we should just do as we agreed. Furthermore, facing the current situation... Lilith and others are not powerless and do not need Qi Ji to intervene. You can't leave everything to others to solve. In the end, you still have to rely on yourself. "This guy cast a spell with a very rare mechanism. I can't crack it yet." After lowering her head and thinking for a moment, Lilith said in a deep voice. She had not expected that this guy would act so decisively and without hesitation, as if it was not his own life that was lost. He was so decisive that she could not stop him immediately: "However, as long as I am given enough time, as well as the corresponding supporting resources and equipment... it shouldn't be difficult to crack the mechanism of this spell and find a way to stop it from working." As she spoke, she raised her head: "Even if we can't prevent his death, we can at least prevent his spirit from being annihilated... In that case, we can get information through spiritual communication." "Wish ya'll good luck." Qi Ji nodded, and then asked: "So, what are your plans next?" Lilith glanced at her daughter beside her and sighed: "We must leave the human world as soon as possible and return to the Moonlight Empire and the blood clan's sphere of influence. "Otherwise, firstly, it will be difficult to guarantee our subsequent safety. Secondly... in an unfamiliar area, it will be difficult for me to have sufficient conditions to break the spell cast by this guy." Such an answer was completely within Qi Ji's expectations and did not surprise her. Bernice and her daughter have reunited safely, and the key figure in their relationship has also been captured. No matter what, their most sensible choice is to return to their own forces as soon as possible. All in all...it's time to say goodbye. Giving a meaningful look to the silent Bernice, Qi Ji said with a smile: "Yeah, that's right. Then...both of you have a good trip." Chapter 333: Fairy Tale Realm (Part ) "...Goodbye~! Goodbye~!..." Bernice supported herself with one hand on the back of the open carriage, her face filled with excitement and attachment, and her other hand was raised high and waving constantly. In the direction she was facing, Yao Lingwu, wearing a dark cloak and with a faint smile on his face, stood quietly at the edge of the road, watching the two of them go away with a smile on his face. Bernice waved goodbye to her reluctantly, watching the slender and beautiful figure retreating, getting farther and farther away and smaller. Eventually it condensed into a small black dot that kept trembling at the end of the field of vision, until it completely sank below the horizon and could no longer be seen. "Ah... I don't know when I can see you again..." Staring blankly at the scene flying past her, she held onto the barrier at the rear of the carriage and remained silent for an unknown amount of time. Suddenly, she let out a long sigh, turned around with a complicated expression, and walked towards the carriage.
After dealing with Dre and his superiors and rescuing their mother, they no longer had any reason to stay in Twilight City or in the human world, no matter from what perspective. So, after a simple day of rest, they boarded a hired private carriage the next morning, ready to leave the Glorious Plantagenet Empire and return to the Moonlight Empire from the west of the Crestor Dynasty, a great northern country. Return to your homeland, your family, and the "Guige" bloodline. "Anyway, it's finally over..." Muttering to herself, she slowly raised her head and saw her mother, Lilith Guige, sitting right opposite her, with her upper body slightly bent, one elbow resting on her thigh, and her palm supporting one of her cheeks. The charming red eyes narrowed slightly, looking at him quietly with a meaningful smile. At her feet, there was a rather large box, square in shape, like a simple coffin that could hold a person. The box was tightly wrapped in layers of red cloth, almost airtight, as if it was covering up something that was inconvenient to display to the public. "…Mother, why are you looking at me like that?" Although the other person's eyes were gentle, Bernice still felt a little uncomfortable being stared at like that for a long time. So she adjusted her sitting posture slightly and asked with a strange expression: "I…Is there something on my face?" "Xiao Ni." The mother opposite exhaled lightly, called out her own nickname, then slowly stood up and took quick steps. Completely ignoring the violent bumps on the floor caused by the carriage, Lilith easily maintained her balance and came to the same side as Bernice and sat down: "A lot of things must have happened in this month, right?" As she spoke, she lifted one leg and placed it on the knee of the other leg, then moved towards Bernice, pretending to listen carefully. "yes……" Hearing her mother's words, Bernice was immediately reminded of the past period of time, and couldn't help but feel extremely emotional. "If you have anything to say, just say it." Lilith turned her head slightly and said, "I'm listening." The carriage, pulled by two horses, rumbled along the narrow and muddy road in the suburbs. The wheels go round and round, like the hands of a clock, turning non-stop. Bernice seemed to have opened up her mouth and almost without stopping, she told her mother about her experiences in the past period of time. The expression on her face changed rapidly and her tone of voice also changed very flexibly. From the initial desolation and fear of living on the streets, to the shock and fear when meeting the mysterious cloaked girl, and the curiosity that arose during their time together... She poured out to her mother all the events that had happened in the past month, especially the week she spent with Yao Lingwu, and all the thoughts that had arisen in her mind. The latter just had a faint smile on his face, and said nothing, acting as a qualified listener. The two of them were pressed close together, one of them talking excitedly. From an outsider's perspective, they seemed more like sisters than mother and daughter. But as Bernice's story progressed, Lilith's expression... gradually changed.
"...Wait, you said, she is a smelter in the 'Earth' realm?" When her daughter was talking about the strange and magical glass apple given to her by that 105, Lilith interrupted her for the first time. "Uh, maybe? I'm not sure." Bernice was stunned for a moment, then said after thinking: "After all, the spells she uses most often... even the 'Earth' spells, such as creating and manipulating the tree house, making food for me, controlling vines and roots, etc... look like a wizard in the 'Earth' realm." "It's really similar."
