The Crucifixion Cross

These powers sometimes manifest as the ability to manipulate natural elements, such as Shakespeare's ancestors who had been in contact with Kallen for a while, and sometimes manifest as certain powers similar to the sequence abilities possessed by Herrscher, such as ghostly wandering in the A certain girl from Quantum Sea...

The power that the stigmata bestows on the awakened varies, but this kind of power is by no means the real value of the stigmata.

The technology and important information sealed in the stigmata by the scientists of the fire moths are the key to the destiny to collect the awakened natural stigmata at all costs.

Does Mishima lack the power bestowed by the so-called stigmata?

The answer is of course 'no'. The method of refining 'Qi' taught by the immortal is enough to allow this ancient family to have the power to counteract the destiny head-on, but the gap in technical level cannot be made up by a simple 'power' .

No matter how fierce Mishima's fighting power is, as long as the technical gap is not resolved for a day, it will always be a younger brother in front of destiny, and to fill the gap, the precious information stored in the stigmata is naturally the most convenient way Well, Mishima has done a lot of insane things for this, but all of them ended in failure, as if there is no stigmata remains in the Far East.

Except for the girl named 'Sakura' whom Su Fei saw in Kallen's memories, Mishima couldn't find even a trace of information about the holder of the stigmata during the past 2000 years... …

The super arsenal used to mass-produce the God's Key is naturally important, but if possible, Su Fei doesn't want to give up the stigmata that is close at hand, although he doesn't know how to get it...

Could it be that the piece of meat where the stigmata is located should be cut off with a knife?

While injecting ether into the soul sword, Su Fei thought seriously.

"—I always feel that you are thinking about something bad!" Karen shuddered and said with some fear.

"Is there?" Su Fei shrugged without looking back, and raised the soul sword that had been injected into the Queen Mother into a fully unfolded state.

In the next moment, a bright green sword light flashed across, beautifully cutting open the brown coffin in the center of the hall of worship—needless to say, that coffin belonged to 'Sakura' of course, and most of it was handed by Karen himself Made, because the family crest of the Kaslana family is engraved in the center of the coffin.

Although hundreds of years have already corroded the imprint carved with an unknown knife, Su Fei recognized it at a glance, because strictly speaking, Qiyana is also Kaslana's family, the lover's family Of course, Su Fei would not ignore it completely.

Kallen discovered this too, but she kept silent.

This Kallen Kaslana has always held a negative attitude towards what her "self" did 500 years ago. It made her realize in a trance that the person "she" once loved deeply was sleeping here...

To this day, Kallen still doesn't understand why her past "self" fell in love with a poor man who lost herself in the killing for no reason in such a short period of time, but she can only accept the reality.

"Bang... bang..."

The lid of the coffin, which had been cut in half, slowly slid down the sides and finally fell to the ground.

A stale smell full of the atmosphere of the times rushed to the face and diffused in the air of the worship hall.

In a trance, there seems to be an inexplicable force that led everyone's thoughts across 500 years, back to the beautiful day when the purple kite was flying...

Wait, something seems wrong! ?

Su Fei frowned, shook her head, let out a low drink, and suddenly burst out with strength.

"drink--"

The bright green light that symbolizes life flashed by, and the stale breath of time disappeared in an instant, and the people behind them also shook their bodies, and the eyes that were still somewhat dazed were restored. Ching Ming.

"Is this the power of the Herrscher of Corrosion!?" Tifa, who quickly reacted, took a few steps back subconsciously, looking at the heavy coffin in disbelief, "It is obvious that the Herrscher's consciousness is still outside to control the demon fox. The body, the remaining power can still easily affect our minds!? Miss Karen, how did you seal this guy for 500 years?!"

"That's the credit of Judas and Sakura," Karen shook her head, "My own strength is not worth mentioning."

"Now is not the time to be humble..." The expression on Su Fei's face was also a little heavy. He was not afraid of confronting the tough head-on, but this kind of strange ability was quite tricky... Fortunately, as the contractor of Judas' oath, Su Fei He also seemed to have some resistance to this strange power. Among all the people present, he was the first to wake up, "At this time, you should say openly, 'It's just a mere Herrscher of Corrosion, it's not worth it at all. Ti' come and cheer us on!"

"Daytime is not a good time to talk in your sleep." Karen glanced at Su Fei, and said lightly: "By the way, are you sure you don't need to hurry up? Although the consciousness of the Herrscher of Corruption is controlling that demon fox right now, I I don’t think the coalition forces of anti-entropy and the world snake will be stopped by it for too long... Among those people, there is a guy who is not easy to mess with, that’s what my sixth sense told me!”

"I know..." Su Fei pursed her lips, slowly bent down, his eyes passed through the dust of the years, and landed on the sleeping girl——

Chapter 45. Sakura who has been sleeping for a hundred years

Sleeping in the coffin was a young woman with cherry-colored long hair.

She has a rare face that is as beautiful and beautiful as Su Fei's memory, as if the changes of the years have not left any traces on her body, as beautiful and moving as 500 years ago.

Even though she was lying on her back in the coffin, her proud figure was not damaged in the slightest by this posture. The two towering clusters that spurred blood were still enough to firmly attract the attention of any man. Her slender and soft waist The limbs are so full that they cannot be grasped, anyone seems to have an urge to embrace her in his arms and love her wantonly.

There is no doubt that this is a stunning beauty. In the troubled times of the Warring States Period 500 years ago, if she hadn't been living in seclusion in this remote mountain village, she would have become a "demon girl" who would bring disaster to the country and the people, right?

Of course, it's also fortunate that she hasn't had much contact with the outside world, so she didn't dress herself up like a monster like the orthodox ladies in ancient times...

However, the gentleness and elegance that can be revealed from the bottom of his bones even when he is asleep, still makes people think of 'Yamato Nadeko', a synonym for an oriental lady.

Su Fei is also a man. Facing such an overwhelmed character, he has all kinds of thoughts that he should have and shouldn't have, but he is good-looking but can't be eaten. Compared with his appearance and figure, what Su Fei really values Or the stigmata on her body.

"Are you still alive..."

As Su Fei spoke softly, she put her right index finger and middle finger together and pointed towards the tip of 'Sakura''s nose.

To be honest, this action is really stupid to do to a 'corpse' that has been sealed for more than 500 years, and Su Fei really didn't detect any breath, but...

She is still alive, Su Fei can be [-]% sure of this.

He could feel the breath of life very clearly, even if the cherry-haired girl didn't have any breath.

Incomparably surging vitality flowed in her body, supporting this long-dead 'corpse' like an Optimus Prime.

Su Fei could clearly feel the power of the Herrscher of Corrosion, but...

Not just that.

Not only is there only one kind of power supporting her, the power of the Herrscher of Corrosion can only infiltrate the Honkai energy into her limbs and bones to force the degree of 'pollution' within the critical range, there is another A mysterious force fixed her 'vitality', allowing her to maintain a mysterious state of neither life nor death for more than 500 years.

That power is the stigmata, right?

A flash of understanding flashed in Su Fei's eyes, and at the same time, the color of excitement became more and more intense.

The mystique of this state is undiminished compared to Su Fei himself. He really died once and his heart was eaten, but the girl was sealed while she was alive. It was lost over the years, but was replaced by the power of the Herrscher of Corrosion, just like a river that had already dried up was injected with new water.

What replaced the 'heart' was the stigmata awakened from the depths of the blood.

For more than 500 years, the stigmata, the power of the Herrscher, and the girl herself have already become an inseparable whole. Losing any of them will cause considerable harm to the girl, ranging from losing consciousness to the ghost ascending to heaven, but... this What does it have to do with Su Fei?He is not one of those harem kings in novels who sees one and accepts one another. Feelings of pity and pity are too extravagant for him.

Su Fei shook her head, hung the soul sword in storage mode on her waist again, slowly bent down, passed her right hand over her delicate shoulder, and gently wrapped her left hand around the slender waist that couldn't be grasped, and gently held the sword. The sealed girl was picked up by the princess from the coffin.

The gorgeous and smooth cherry-colored long hair poured down like a waterfall. At this moment, she was so beautiful that it was almost suffocating. Even Tifa, who was a woman, couldn't help showing a stunning expression.

However, what she didn't notice was that Fu Hua, who had been in a state of trance before, seemed to have a bit of brilliance in his dim eyes because of the appearance of this cherry-haired girl...

"Yae Sakura..." Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar girl, Karen had a complicated expression on her face.

That was her benefactor, her enemy, and at the same time her lover...

With such a complicated identity, it is destined that Karen cannot face her easily, but Su Fei doesn't have so many twists and turns in her heart.

He adjusted his posture slightly, letting the girl sit directly in his arms.

Through the back collar of the western-style witch dress, Su Fei can clearly see the slender and elegant neck and the red lines engraved on the back - there is no doubt that it is Su Fei's memory in Karen See the 'stigmata' in the.

The three red Gouyu Chengpin are arranged in the shape of the girl's white back. The familiar shape made Su Fei think that the girl's real name was Uchiha Sakura at first glance. Is it Sakura?

Su Fei raised her eyebrows, and suddenly wanted to laugh, but in the end she suppressed this inappropriate thought.

Now that the location of the stigmata can be confirmed, then... how to get it is also a problem.

Su Fei thought about it, and finally decided to wake her up first.

After all, she is also the holder of the stigmata, and no one should know how to use this stigmata better than she herself.

As for whether he is willing to hand over the stigmata... Please, Su Fei specifically asked Kallen to go with her not just to lead the way, but to use her power to persuade Ying is Su Fei's purpose.

Taking a ten thousand step back, even if Kalian goes out in person, it is useless, Su Fei still has the force to submit to this backup plan!

"Then let Sleeping Princess wake up from her dream..."

While Su Fei whispered to herself, she slowly narrowed the distance to the 'Sleeping Princess' in her arms.

Just when Tifa, who was watching, was thinking sourly, "Could it be that the young master is going to use Kiss...", Su Fei suddenly closed her eyes.

In the next instant, a pale golden light lit up from the cross around his neck, and slowly spread to his whole body.

Mishima's special dark combat uniform was gradually replaced by dazzling white gold, and the original slim-fitting short style gradually changed into a familiar robe - it was once used by Baiyu Kalian and Sufei Kaslana. An improved version of the Destiny Valkyrie battle suit that can be realized by Honkai.

A warm and soft light slowly radiated from Su Fei's body, gradually replacing the coldness around the coffin, and the girl who had been sleeping in his arms for a long time seemed to wake up from her slumber because of this familiar tenderness...

The slender and slender eyelashes fluttered lightly, and the cherry-haired girl who was taking herself back from the god named 'Time' slowly opened her eyes. In the hazy vision, the familiar light made her open subconsciously. He opened his mouth and said in a hoarse voice:

"Ka...Lian?"

Chapter 46. Who are you?

Consciousness has been silent in the chaotic darkness for too long, so long that even 'she' almost completely forgot her own existence, and the noisy and piercing sound from 'another self' could still make her uncomfortable for a while , but now there is only an empty numbness left...

tired.

Whether it is the endless sleep, or this senseless 'life'.

Why didn't I just take my life 500 years ago when I had to fall into eternal sleep with my 'other self'?

Is it because of weakness?

Is it because of reluctance?

Is it because of tenderness?

You know, your gentleness is the greatest cruelty...

hate it?

Resent it?

Has the love once turned into hatred stronger than love?

No one knows the answer because she has long forgotten the 'answer'.

Even if I question the 'self' deep in my heart, all I get is a void and empty echo...

Those hot feelings in the past have long been left with dead gray fragments, like embers after the fire has been burned out, without any value or meaning, just 'existence'.

Until that day, the familiar tenderness traveled through the darkness and surrounded me...

At this moment, 'she' woke up.

What I thought I had long forgotten, what I didn't care about, what I loved turned into hate... everything, all emotions were awakened at this moment, and the extremely strong emotional impact caused 'her' consciousness to fall into a short-term chaos, and even once Confused dream and reality.

It wasn't until the hazy halo fell on her heart through the blurred field of vision that the still sleeping consciousness finally woke up little by little from the darkness, and once again experienced the real feeling of being 'alive'.

The senses recovered little by little, and the strange and familiar touch made her slowly regain the old senses, vision, hearing, smell... From the five senses to the whole body, she struggled to learn how to use this body again.

When she woke up from a deep sleep and was finally able to control her body freely, she opened her eyes with difficulty, and couldn't wait to say the first sentence in a hoarse voice in the past 500 years——

"Ka...Lian?"

The voice was extremely harsh and hoarse, like dry grass in the desert.

She opened her eyes with difficulty, although the fatigue from all parts of her body made her want to sleep for a while, but the familiar tenderness made her insist on taking another look at her lover's face.

Just one look, just one look...

"Is that you, Kallen...?"

The woman with cherry hair raised a hand tremblingly, the still blurry vision made her unable to see the face of her beloved, but the familiar warmth gave her infinite strength at this moment!

She felt that she could do anything, even if the so-called 'anything' was just stroking the face of the one she loved...

A hand caught her pale palm in mid-air, familiar warmth and familiar softness, but... the feeling of touch was completely different from the roughness in memory!

"?!"

A huge panic seized her heart at this moment, and even her breathing stopped at this moment.

That limp little hand seemed to have regained its strength, trembled like an electric shock, and subconsciously withdrew it, but the familiar stranger who held her in his arms held her hand back.

The two people's fingers intertwined, but there was no trace of reassuring warmth. Huge malice enveloped her whole body, which was icy cold!

"You're not Kallen!? Are you... who!?"

The cherry-haired woman gritted her teeth and struggled vigorously, but the person who 'pretend' to be Kallen was surprisingly strong. She just woke up and couldn't get rid of the weakness for a while, so the strength of that little resistance was nothing at all. In the blink of an eye like stone sinking into the sea, there is no trace.

"Me?" The person holding her was stunned for a moment, and then he showed a playful smile, "My name is Baiyu Sufei, and I am Karen's... friend, and at the same time, the person who came to pick you up with her .”

"friend?"

This strange word made the woman with cherry hair feel dazed. How long has it been since she heard this word?

"Well, it's a friend." Su Fei nodded with a smile, "Look, isn't Karen right there?"

As he spoke, he turned sideways, letting Kallen's figure come into the sight of the cherry-haired woman.

On the other side, Karen also showed as gentle a smile as she had discussed with Su Fei before—as Karen who inherited the side of 'Kaslana', it was very important for her to be able to do this. It's really not easy, even though no matter in anyone's eyes, this smile is stiff and embarrassing.

"Long time no see, Sakura..."

Keeping that awkward smile, Karen greeted jerky.
