Infinite reincarnation of glory

Chapter 318 ·Repayment

The gun penetrated the heart.

How many times has this heart been hit and how many times has it been destroyed in this battle?

Mathematically, that amount is not huge. But for an organ, such an encounter is a bit too bad.

It will protest, it will refuse to suffer a similar fate again. And this means...this is the last time.

……………………

This is the last time.

Zhao Yingkong, who has a dominant personality, stared at the wound on her chest, and she felt the disintegration and decline of her own will. The double heavy damage to the body and mind is also a fatal situation that cannot be ignored by the holders of the fourth-level gene lock. Even if she doesn't really die, she will fall into a long sleep until a new opportunity comes to wake her up from nothingness again.

It's...amazing.

She knew that it wasn't that she couldn't hold on and continue fighting. If you are so shameless, being used as a weapon, and even threaten the complete collapse of this body, then it is not impossible to delay it for another ten days and a half. However, ten days and a half month is only half of the return node. Even if she makes herself look ugly, she cannot avoid her eventual demise.

As an assassin, she has never cared much about the 'dignity of the strong'. If you can win, then even if the process is ugly and embarrassing, it won't be a big deal. However, since the final victory cannot be delayed no matter what, there is no need... to make it impossible for everyone to leave the stage with dignity.

So be it.

She raised her eyes and looked at the nearby enemy and her own body. The other self is nestling in the guardian's arms, like a petite and fragile bird. His opponent's eyes were determined, with only victory and purpose in his sight. No matter who was standing opposite him, he would not waver in the slightest.

What a terrible man.

Although he already knows the truth, he would rather indulge in it. He doesn't care at all whether he is a monster or an artifact. He only cares about his victory and his goal.

When the other self is next to him like this... what will happen in the end?

have no idea.

It may be a glorious road, but it may also be full of thorns. However, no matter what kind of path it is, I may no longer be able to touch it.

Because she has made up her mind.

She was losing control of her body, and the memories and experiences she had developed during this period were being shared with her at high speed. There is no doubt that the other self has seen the scene where Jiang Yu's true nature was revealed to him, and has seen his shortcomings and omissions. But even so, she still clung to him tightly, not even casting a single ray of eyes on where she was.

She doesn't care.

She was ready to face any outcome.

So, now that I am powerless...what else can I do?

"You win." Zhao Yingkong, the protagonist, gently closed his eyes and then opened them. The immortal sword forged with fighting will in his hand fell onto the broken palace that was gradually filled with light. "I don't want to admit your victory, but I can't stop you. You relied on your ability to take her away from me... now, she is yours."

"I'm just fulfilling my duties." Jiang Yu replied calmly. "It's my duty as the captain, my duty as Jiang Yu. I will protect the companions around me, and I will also care about the people I care about."

"...It's really interesting. You actually have this self-awareness of being Jiang Yu? It's hard for me to imagine. You are more like a tool than a tool. Do you really have such a thing as desire? "The dominant Zhao Yingkong tilted her head slightly, and there was something unexpectedly strange in her eyes. This is the palace of the heart, a place where souls collide and confront each other. It is possible to tell only part of the truth, but if it is a lie, the opponent will see it the moment it is blurted out before reaching a sufficient level of life.

"Of course I do." Jiang Yu did not deny it. "I can even answer those questions you asked me earlier."

"My favorite colors are red and black, the music I like to listen to is "Croatian Rhapsody", the books I like to read are mythological epics, and my hobbies in my spare time are reading online literature and playing old-school strategy games. Of course, I am interested in Beautiful girls with great figures are also very interested.”

He did only tell part of the truth, at least he didn't add the word "white hair" to the term "beautiful girl" here.

He himself didn't know why he wanted to hide this. Maybe his wooden head could still read a little bit of the atmosphere and current situation.

"And..." He turned his head slightly and glanced at the girl in his arms. "It feels good to be a hero, and becoming a knight who saves the princess is really what I want. Also... the princess dress is very beautiful. I like it very much."

The girl in her arms shook slightly, her pretty face was slightly warm and flushed - she was stunned for a moment, then lowered her head slightly, as if she had thought of something interesting.

"...This is really...unexpected." The dominant Zhao Yingkong opened her mouth slightly, and she was even stunned for a while. "You didn't lie...and you didn't need to lie. I didn't expect that I would make mistakes. You...that's it."

Her eyes lit up slightly.

"You are not heartless...you are forcing yourself to contain your heart. So, my words have become your food, allowing you to further consolidate your determination. You have not given up your original driving force, you We still regard fulfilling our responsibilities as our top priority, we just changed the form of its implementation!”

"If you can't grow, then change the direction to grow. If you can't move forward, then change the direction. You will realize your dusty desires as a new direction to break through the current stagnation period. You...your purpose is still Get stronger as fast as possible!"

"I don't deny it." Jiang Yu nodded. "Until I am convinced that this path is completely wrong, I will not hesitate to practice it to the end. As the acting captain of the Central Continent Team, I will protect my companions. As the reincarnation of the Lord God, I will open the gene lock to Higher. And as Jiang Yu myself, I will realize the desire that I have hidden in my heart."

"In order to fulfill the first two responsibilities, I deliberately suppressed the third one. But you pointed out my mistake. I am 'Jiang Yu' first, then the 'Reincarnation', and finally the 'Agent of the Zhongzhou Team' Captain'. Although I don't know why my gene lock level has temporarily reached the bottleneck stage where it is difficult to advance any further, and my companions are also growing rapidly towards a level that I cannot protect. However, I suppress my responsibilities as 'Jiang Yu' , reduction is an undoubted fact, and now, I want to correct this fallacy."

"In the past, I completely reduced the responsibilities of 'Jiang Yu' to getting along with Xia. I don't think this is wrong, but I think it may not be completely correct. And since the first two are limited, Then it is natural to unlock this layer of restrictions. That’s why I can appear in this place at this time.”

His eyes were so intense that Zhao Yingkong almost subconsciously avoided him.

"Your previous judgment of me was wrong. As the 'acting captain', I came here to 'bring back my team members'. As 'Jiang Yu', I came here entirely to 'bring back my team members'." The Zhao Yingkong I know'. I will not deny my affection for her, nor will I deny my desire for her. I am here just for her, whether it is her as a reincarnation of the Central Continent team, or as a I want all of her from the person I love.”

"..." Zhao Yingkong, the master of personality, fell into silence.

Jiang Yu's theory completely shocked her. It may be the first time she has seen someone who can distinguish every aspect of herself so clearly, and it is definitely the first time she has seen a man who wants to beat him up so unabashedly analyze himself in front of her. desires and thoughts.

My words really worked.

But the direction of the effect was completely different from what I expected.

I hope that he can realize how unreasonable this behavior of treating himself as an 'instrument' is, how contrary to the laws of nature and people's hearts, so that he can improve. However, now...

"You are still a tool." There was a hint of melancholy in her voice. "And you...acknowledged the fact that you were an instrument and performed your duties as an instrument without hesitation. You are no longer confused because you found that you had omitted something when performing your duties in the past. And now... ...You have completed your missing functions. You have made yourself a more complete...new artifact."

"I don't deny it." Jiang Yu tilted her head slightly. "If a jade is not polished, it will not become a useful tool. Human beings' evaluation of the good ones who are less advanced is originally a 'made tool'. In fact, there is not much difference between me and other people. I just thanked you for knowing my essence, and then, maybe Just see it more clearly than others."

"...Your fallacy is really hard to argue with." Zhao Yingkong sighed silently.

"But you are the winner, and the winner has the right to define what is right. So I am the one who talks about the wrong things... That's all, I can't persuade you, and I can't defeat you. What do you want to do, I I can’t control it either.”

Her figure gradually faded due to the collapse of her will.

She was about to fall into a long sleep, and it seemed that without special means or circumstances, it would be difficult to wake her up again.

And finally, her eyes turned to her other self.

"Ruikong's remnants." She said, looking at her. "Since you have chosen this path, you will bear the consequences yourself. I can no longer control you and will not care about you anymore. However, I still have a gift that I can give you. Consider it a parting gift."

The assassin girl looked at her and said nothing. There was still a faint blush left on his face.

"I give you the name 'Zhao Yingkong'...it doesn't matter if it's the same name or inheritance. This is my gift to you, my legacy to you. Feel free to use it to call yourself. From now on, you will have this name. Master. Of course, this is not without cost."

"I'm not afraid." The other Zhao Yingkong's gaze did not dodge or avoid.

"I know you're not afraid." Zhao Yingkong sighed softly. "You don't need to be afraid."

"Because the name of this price is 'loss'. I no longer need you to complete me, and on the contrary, my soul and the light of my soul will not become the material to complete you. I can very Let me tell you clearly that as long as you unlock the fourth-level gene lock, you will follow the old path of the members of the Sky Project, and you will touch your own inner darkness, as well as corruption and destruction in a very short period of time. And this is The price you have to face.”

"Because you have to keep up with him, you will not give up the pace of progress. Therefore, you are destined to face this problem. And the solution, you can only think of it yourself. Or..."

"Let me think about it." Jiang Yu said in a deep voice. "I will protect her from all hardships and dangers. I will find a way to help her solve the problems she cannot solve. I will try to deal with her incomplete soul."

"...It seems that you know more than I expected." Zhao Yingkong, who is a master of personality, showed a subtle smile at the corner of his mouth. "I originally planned to teach you about the fourth-level gene lock and the light of the soul. But now it seems that you don't really need it anymore."

"Then... move forward. Everything you can touch is waiting for you in the future. Zhao Yingkong will leave it to you. And the rest... whatever you want is fine."

She spoke her last words.

She gave up fighting, giving up perseverance, giving up her own will and strength.

She closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep. This body no longer belonged to her for the time being.

The battle is over.

Jiang Yu and Zhao Yingkong woke up in the outside world. Time still stopped at the last second. Although she was holding Zhu Wen in her arms, her hand piercing Zhao Yingkong's heart looked a little awkward. But this insignificant detail is no longer important at this moment.

After all, he still carries the healing medicine with him. Even if it was too late to use it before, it should be fine now.

Then...it's time to find a place to descend...

……………………

It takes about five minutes to reach the ground.

It took about a quarter of an hour to heal the wounded, or at least stabilize the current injuries.

Fortunately for Zhao Yingkong, her body has activated a lot of power due to the awakening of her personality. Even a fatal wound that penetrated her heart was not very serious to her. As for Zhu Wen... her body is too fragile, and Zhao Yingkong's hand is too heavy. The final result was that her recovery would take several times as long as Zhao Yingkong's.

But this does not seem to be entirely due to objective reasons. There seems to be some subjective factors involved. Although Jiang Yu didn't understand the atmosphere very well, he always felt that the atmosphere between the two beautiful girls was... a little subtle.

And they still have to stay in this world for a long period of twenty-seven days.

And... I was provoked by the computer explosion_(:з」∠)_

Today, there is only one verse... although it is no longer today_(:з」∠)_
