Monarch of Evernight: Forty Wings
bsp;Qianye jumped out of the water more than a hundred meters away with the girl in his arms, and a faint crimson force light enveloped them. The girl was clean, but half of his clothes were soaked by the moisture. Although Qianye can transcend the level and release his force power, it is not stable enough after all, and besides, he only has less than half of the dawn force power left at this moment.
The girl curiously stretched out her finger to poke at the force light, watching her onion-white finger pass through the crimson glow. Even though there was no physical touch at all on her fingertips, the Force crystals in her body were trembling slightly, as if they were being resonated by the vitality of the young man in front of her.
This is an unprecedented feeling, as if the monotonous world of pure black and white suddenly has color and begins to slowly bloom with life.
The girl pressed her cool cheek against Qianye's shoulder and neck, blowing her breath gently on his skin. Qianye had no time to pay attention to her little movements at this time. He kept looking for big rocks in the water as a foothold, leaped on the river, and went away.
Qianye's running figure suddenly froze, and he heard faint human screams coming from the direction of the waterfall.
"Where are your guards?"
The girl shook her head, her hair brushing against Qianye's cheek, bringing a slight itch to her heart, "I... ran away secretly, at home... at home Forcing me to marry an old man in his fifties!" Her voice was soft and small, with a sense of grievance that made her want to cry.
For such a weak and innocent girl to encounter such a fate for no reason, any young man with any blood will be angry after hearing this.
Qianye was silent for a moment, and then asked: "Does your home have another courtyard nearby?"
His question makes sense. The nearest city in Zhao Clan is more than 600 kilometers away. Even if a girl without Force power can drive a vehicle, it is unlikely that she will come here alone. But what kind of family has the ability to build a separate courtyard in the mountainous area at the junction of the human race and the dark race?
The girl blinked her eyes hard and pursed her lips where Qianye couldn't see her. This expression immediately gave her originally weak and innocent temperament a lively look that was out of place.
At this time, Qianye slowed down his running pace. He had left the river and climbed over a stretch of rolling hills. From here on, Qianye ran while making some simple warning or confusion devices.
On the section of road he chose, there is a large number of creeping shrubs called spiny butterflies. Their needle-like leaves emit a peculiar smell that repels insects. This smell is not obvious to the ordinary human sense of smell. But creatures with a sensitive sense of smell will be greatly disturbed, such as vampires.
Qianye knew that the Vampire Viscount should have remembered the smell of his own blood. However, the girl was just an ordinary human, and her breath was already weak. After a long period of water vapor erosion from the river, and then passing through a large breeding ground for spiny butterflies, there would definitely be no trace left. Traces of what can be traced. Next, as long as the two separate, Zaren will lose the girl's whereabouts.
About an hour later, Qianye climbed up a short peak with a not steep **** in his arms, and then stopped in front of a cave.
Qianye put the girl down and touched her sleeves. Although they were not wet by the river water, they were still very moist. He took out tools from the waterproof compartment of his backpack, lit a bonfire, then walked out of the cave and set up around it.
The girl stood at the entrance of the cave, curiously watching his work.
In reality, there wasn't much time left for them. From the scream, Qianye guessed that Zaren might have met someone else, but judging from the girl's unconcerned reaction, it seemed that he was not her guard. No matter what happens at the waterfall, the time you can buy is only two or three hours at most.
All Qianye can do now is to set up traps to prevent wild beasts and eliminate his own traces as soon as possible, hoping that the girl who was innocently involved can escape safely after he lures away the vampire viscount.
As for the conflict between the girl and her family, if there was no fatal threat from the Vampire Viscount, Qianye might be able to ask her where she wanted to go and help her. Now, she can only hope that her family, who dared to build a villa in the mountainous area, has the corresponding guard strength to bring her back safely.
After Qianye arranged the surroundings of the cave, he walked further and ran up and down the mountain peak twice. When he returned to the cave after finishing his work, he saw the girl sitting on the ground facing the bonfire.
The jumping flames reflected the delicate outline of her side, and her skin was pure and clear, as if emitting a soft light. When she stood still, all the liveliness and vitality subsided, and she took on a different kind of sadness. The lips, which are so pale that the color is almost invisible, have a sickly fragility that makes people feel distressed.
Movement and stillness, two different sides.
Qianye sat down opposite the girl and took a moment to breathe evenly. His Dawn Force was dangerously low. But now he has to be fully alert to the outside world and has no time to recover.
"My name is Xixi, what's yours?"
"Thousand Nights".
"What should we do next?"
"I will lead that vampire far away. You are safe. When there is no danger, contact your guards!"
The girl pouted, as if she was angry with someone, and then put her head on her knees.
"As for my family, maybe talk to them again..." Qianye thought for a while and then said: "I don't have any family, so I don't know what to say."
Qiqi always used various methods to coax him to change his clothes when hunting in Tianxuan Spring, and in disguise, he popularized the clothing knowledge of many noble ladies of the empire. Qianye had discovered at this time that the girl's clothes and accessories seemed simple, but they were not ordinary. The low-key luxury meant that not only was she not a noble, but she was also a valued direct descendant even in aristocratic families.
And the high-sect family only values their children's talents and abilities. For a girl like this who has no force but can still be taken care of well in life, the parents should not be completely unkind.
The girl was slightly startled, "No, family?"
Qianye suddenly jumped up, with a solemn look on his face. He took off the shining teeth from his waist and stuffed them into the girl's hands. "I'm sorry for implicating you because of me. Take this!" Then he touched her waist and took off an ancient and gorgeous pistol.
The girl finally exclaimed: "What are you going to do!?"
"Stay here, don't go out, don't go out of the cave!"
"You can't use that gun! It's..." The girl didn't even have time to stand up and stretched out her hand helplessly. Qianye's clothes slipped through her fingertips and turned into a faint shadow. , disappeared in an instant.
Qianye had already exited the cave entrance at this moment. He did not take the gentle **** before going up the mountain. Instead, he climbed up from the rock wall at the top of the cave along the direction he had long taken, and arrived at the back of this mountain peak in a blink of an eye. .
There is a large dense forest of miscellaneous trees and climbing shrubs growing there. The terrain is so high that one can see far away through the gaps between the branches and leaves.
At this moment, the sky has completely darkened, and the night sky has not yet completely closed. There is still a narrow strip of light on the horizon, and you can vaguely see a faint black shadow speeding across the hills and valleys on the rolling mountains.
Qianye rushed down the side of the peak, sensing the fluctuations transmitted by the small devices he dropped on the wilderness. Everything was going well, the Vampire Viscount was chasing after him along the route he had drawn. However, Zaren must immediately capture his traces, otherwise the Blood Viscount will be alert and deviate from the route.
Qianye held the ancient and gorgeous short gun. He only heard the first half of the sentence, but he also knew what the girl wanted to say.
That is an imitation of Manjushuahua. As one of the top ten famous guns in the world, it is the first gun obtained by the human race and has the most mysterious power. It is deeply loved by the young nobles of the empire. Imitations of Manjushuahua are very popular, and at its peak, several handfuls could be seen at a banquet. Considering that the girl is an ordinary person, it is estimated that this replica is only a first-level force gun, not even a second-level force gun.
However, Qianye needs a first-level gun at this moment, and his remaining force power can no longer drive the twin flowers. It doesn't matter whether the first-level gun can hurt Zaren. He only needs medium-range weapons to lure the Vampire Viscount as far away as possible. If he can take advantage of the opportunity to send some blood poison, he will make a profit.
The next ramp was the first place where Qianye's whereabouts were planned to be traced. He jumped out without hesitation and pulled the trigger at Zaren who was running from a distance.
The old-fashioned hammer rose and fell again, making a soft clicking sound. The entire flintlock-like barrel became transparent, and a faint light shone in the center, as pale as the fire core of an old-fashioned oil lamp.
Qianye suddenly found that the entire world had disappeared, leaving only the hammer made of rose gold, crossing the highest point like a pendulum, and then falling.
A bottomless abyss suddenly appeared at the landing point!
An irresistible attraction attracted Qianye's various Force nodes. The nodes that were originally dim due to fatigue were as bright as burning oil, as if they were igniting the nodes themselves. The nearly dry Dawn Force suddenly stirred up a tide, rolling into a sky-high wave and plunging into the abyss.
Qianye couldn't feel anything at this time, and all he could think of was the bottomless abyss that seemed to swallow everything.
When the whole world was swept away, a little bit of life sprouted out of nothingness in an unknown corner. No light can be seen yet, but the blooming breath of life is spreading quietly.
At this moment, the dark gold blood energy that had rushed into the heart to escape when the dawn tide broke out suddenly rushed out, and it expanded a thousand times in an instant in the empty world. Golden light shoots out from every corner, with a faint crimson color, just like the moment when the morning light falls on the earth.
Something in the light was slowly condensing, and it became clear for a moment. It was a ball of golden flames.
Where Qianye didn't see it, the girl who called herself Xixi appeared on the peak that ordinary people could not reach, and was making gestures in the air. Then her slightly anxious expression turned into disbelief, and a pair of huge golden wings of light reflected in her wide-open eyes!
A crimson mist rose from the wilderness, and golden lights floated up and down. They were not very dazzling at first, but slowly became brighter, as if they were at the beginning of enlightenment. The mist slowly lifted up from Qianye's body. He kept holding the gun with both hands and fired. His face was hidden in the flickering light, and his expression could not be seen clearly.
There was a very light gunshot in the night wind, and there was a pop, which seemed to disappear. It seems that there are flowers blooming in a corner, and you can smell the fragrance the next moment.
If Xixi was not so familiar with this voice, she would even ignore it.
A faint ray of light glides in the air, almost invisible in the night.
The crimson mist surging around Qianye suddenly dissipated, and the golden light suddenly burst into dazzling light. When the initial blinding moment passed, what stayed in the air was a pair of huge light wings, and each feather was a burning golden flame!
