Chapter 43
The dead body was broken, and the dead body was broken.
"Time, start to flow."
With the release of the magic, the flow of time returned to normal, and the dazzling colors completely stained the gray world.
The fatal bullet also hit Riko's head accurately at this time. The powerful impact made her body lean back suddenly, and scarlet blood gushed out from the wound, splashing on the cold ground, forming a shocking pool of blood.
Then, Shier picked up Riko's still warm body and walked slowly towards the elevator.
When he was about to enter the elevator, he seemed to have noticed something and looked around, but there was only a black well lying on the side except for the hard walls.
"Maybe... I'm just overthinking."
After saying that, he turned around and walked into the elevator. As the elevator door slowly closed, his figure disappeared from the sight of Lian and others.
"Hu~"
Glass also let out a long breath, and Lian also dispersed the surrounding magic barrier at this time.
Lian came back too quickly, causing Glass to fail to completely heal Kuroi's injuries. She just held on for a breath, but it was also a blessing in disguise that Fushiguro Shier didn't notice the abnormality.
"Ren, can't you go back in time? You should be able to heal her directly, right?" Glass half squatted down and continued to treat Kuroi's injuries.
"That's not necessary. This kind of injury can be cured by using the reversal technique. Why bother to use backtracking?" Lian leaned against the wall, took out the pocket watch from her pocket slowly, confirmed the current time, and said calmly, "It's almost time. We should leave here. Let's continue to treat the maid's injury when we get there."
Noseko slowly stood up, glanced at Xiayou Jie lying at the end of the passage, and then looked at Lian, and said:
"Is Xiayou okay? Although I know you won't let him die like this, I still want to confirm it."
Lian did not give an answer immediately, but slowly half-crouched down, gently picked up Hei Jing, then walked to the elevator door and pressed the elevator switch.
As the sound of the elevator descending sounded, Lian also began to explain everything that had happened before. From the death of Nitsuko to the successful reversal of time after her awakening, including why she could know everything that would happen in the future in advance.
After thoroughly understanding all this, Naoko was stunned. He couldn't believe that Lian had done this, and he was also worried about the price Lian had to pay for playing with time like this.
"Noko, I only told you that I have to pay a price for using my ability. If possible, please don't tell Wu and Jie... at least not now."
Faced with Lian's sincere request, Naoko felt a little unhappy. This emotion did not come from Lian's request being too difficult or cumbersome.
On the contrary, the reason why Naoko felt unhappy was that she thought Lian's earnest request to her seemed to imply that he did not regard herself as an equal companion with the three of them, which made Naoko feel a little uncomfortable.
But Naoko did not say these, but just nodded silently. At this time, the elevator just arrived in front of the two of them, and Naoko walked in first.
Although Naoko had tried her best to hide her emotions, her unhappy expression still betrayed her, and Lian immediately noticed this sadness.
"Glass..." After a brief silence, Rei slowly said, "In terms of trust, I treat the three of you equally. I need to explain this clearly to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings and troubles."
His expression was serious, and his tone was firm and sincere, which made people feel how much he valued this matter.
"Puchi, hahaha."
Hearing Rei say such cheesy words in such a serious tone, Glass couldn't help laughing. She didn't expect Rei to care so much about her emotions, even though she hadn't said anything yet.
"Okay, don't go on. I know what you mean, but if they find out by themselves, it's none of my business." Glass chuckled.
"Ah, of course." After giving a positive answer, Rei also walked into the elevator.
The two took the elevator and quickly left Hongxing Palace.
…………
With the help of time acceleration, they soon arrived at the headquarters of Panxing Sect.
And Kuroi also woke up under Glass's treatment. After a simple explanation, she quickly understood the current situation.
"Glass, I'll go in and bring Riko out. You two wait here for me." As soon as the words fell, Lian's figure instantly disappeared from the spot.
He
Using time acceleration, he easily passed the security guards and entered the building.
Following the remnants of the curse, Lian slowly walked down the stairs and found the underground assembly hall. He stopped in front of the gate as if he was waiting for someone.
The noisy conversations of the believers continued to come from the gate behind him, which made him feel disgusted. Even so, he would not choose to push the door open and kill them all.
After a while, a man in white clothes with a strange pustules on his forehead appeared in Lian's vision. His hands were holding an object wrapped in white cloth.
Lian confirmed through perception that the person wrapped was Tennen Riko who was in a state of suspended animation. He said in a sinister tone:
"Put that girl down, I can let you die more easily-Miscellaneous."
The tone of this sentence was not high, and it did not sound emphasized, but to the man, it implied a violent killing intent.
Lian's eyes were extremely cold, as if they could freeze all life. The gray dark pupils were like the cold moon in the cold night, emitting a biting chill.
"Shit! Didn't those two guys swear that they were not being tracked? They are killing me now and still say they are not being tracked?" The man kept cursing Fushiguro Shier and Kong Shiyu in his heart.
But he did not let go of Riko, nor did he choose to escape. He just stood there quietly. Lian was a little confused about this.
"I thought you would struggle a little. After all, even a dead bullfrog will trigger a spasm reaction when it is put into the pot."
Faced with Lian's sarcasm, the man was not angered. On the contrary, he was a little scary at this moment. After a moment of silence, he said:
"Struggle? From the moment you appeared in my sight, I could not survive."
"Instead of wasting time on meaningless struggles, it is better to die calmly, which is also worthy of the church's grace."
"Are you not afraid of death?" Lian asked.
"If you are destined to fall with the stars, it is understandable."
There was a touch of madness and unquestionable in his eyes, and Lian admired his stupidity.
"Then you die, electric current manipulation technique - fast."
As Lian raised her finger, a dazzling beam of electric light rushed towards the man, instantly piercing his brain and killing him on the spot.
As the man fell to the ground, Riko's body also lost support. Seeing that she was about to fall to the ground, Lian hurriedly stepped forward and caught her steadily.
Lian quickly tore off the white cloth wrapped around her, and took off her school uniform to put on her to prevent her from catching a cold. While checking her injuries, Lian used the reversal technique to treat her. As her injuries healed, Riko gradually recovered her breathing.
"Well, it's no big deal, so what's next..."
Riko held her waist with one hand, picked up the body of the man who fell to the ground, and kicked open the door of the assembly hall.
