The Crucifixion Cross

"Olka, you've changed, but I haven't!"

Hua Ling's words: After thinking about it, I still think this title is the most suitable...

Chapter 50. Turtledove

After a long period of darkness and pain, what greeted Wendy was not the dawn of dawn, but a heart-pounding cold——

The heavy feeling coming from all over the body told Wendy that she was in a very bad condition now... not just the pain before losing consciousness, but also some heavy and cold things pressing on her body, making it difficult for her to move freely.

Is this... a chain?

Wendy, who just woke up from a coma, wanted to try to move her hands, but she stopped when the thought of 'move' just reached her nerves, because of the pain, the heart-wrenching pain!

Wendy thought that she had already grown to the point where she could ignore the pain and continue to fight, but it wasn't until this moment that she realized that what she had done was far from enough...

It is difficult for her to describe her experience clearly in words, she just feels as if her soul has been torn apart.

Fortunately, after the severe pain, Wendy finally regained some sense of existence in her limbs.

Hands, feet, shoulder blades, under the ribs... The cold and heavy iron chains imprisoned Wendy's body in a way that didn't have the slightest aesthetic feeling, locked tightly in this dark corner.

Wendy, who is an A-level Valkyrie, should have been able to break free from the iron chain package that added up to less than two hundred catties, but now she can't exert any strength at all, just like the Valkyrie transformation she once received. The surgery is the same as the stigmata implantation surgery.

It's hard for Wendy to understand what she's facing now. Where's her stigmata?What about her ability to collapse?Why have they all disappeared?

What exactly is going on! ?

She bit her lip, desperately recalling everything before she lost consciousness - the scarlet blood mist, the red spear, the piercing pain, and Bianca who was blown away by the hurricane...

correct!

And Bianca!

How is Bianca?

Has she been arrested too? ?

Wendy looked around anxiously, but the heavy and cold chains locked her in a corner like an execution rack, and she couldn't even turn her head.

"Ugh……"

Wendy sighed softly, feeling empty in her heart.

All that remained of her memory was the pain before she lost consciousness and the scarlet blood mist. Other than that, it was completely blank, and she had no idea who and when she was imprisoned here.

And this feeling of chains and emptiness...

Has even the Houkai energy been suppressed?

The same goes for the stigmata, I can't feel it at all...

Wendy sniffled, the long-lost feeling of weakness made her extremely uncomfortable, and the tingling sensation from all parts of her body was even more torture.

The only good news is that at least the injuries on his body have been healed...

Although it was still painful, the pain was more of a mental one, and the physical condition was barely okay... probably because he used an advanced recovery cabin?

It's really worth it...

Wendy thought inwardly.

She closed her eyes and rested quietly for a while, silently accumulating energy.

Although deprived of the stigmata and the Honkai ability cannot be used for unknown reasons, it doesn't matter, the body transformed by the Valkyrie transformation operation has a strong combat power even if it does not rely on these external bonuses, and, There is a killer weapon hidden in her leg!

However, just when Wendy was about to try to channel the power of the longing gem, a cold voice suddenly sounded from the shadow beside her:

"If I were you, I wouldn't continue to use the power of gems when I was only one step away from going berserk."

"This voice..." Wendy was startled, and said in disbelief, "An Qi... Li Jie?!"

"Well, it's me."

Qianying who came out of the shadows said lightly.

It was a young woman about 20 years old, with pretty short blond hair and vermilion eyes, but her exquisite face was covered with frost, as sharp as a blade.

Angelize——Angelijie Michelchi is the real name of this blond girl.

In Wendy's impression, this is a noble Valkyrie...or rather, a Valkyrie-like noble?

Although Oceania has long abandoned the 'decaying' aristocratic system, there are some 'traditions' that can't be lost, and Michelle, to which Angelie belongs, is one of them.

However, unlike other local nobles, there are different opinions about the origins of Angelie and the Michelchi family.

Some people think that there should be a 'turtledove' from the Far East in the middle of the surname Misierqi. The people who are so lively and not too serious have been spreading rumors that the Miski family is a spy that Mishima infiltrated into Tianshen...

At the beginning, Wendy really thought it was just a rumor, but now it seems that the 'rumor' may not be just a 'rumor'...

Angelique's attitude is already obvious: Not only are she and Wendy not the same way, but it is very likely that she and her companions have caused Wendy to be imprisoned in this ghost place...

but why?

Also, what did she mean by that sentence just now?

"Just one step away from going berserk? What are you talking about, Angelique!?"

"Didn't you notice it? Well, after all, it's just a guinea pig temporarily pulled out as a test product, so it's only natural that you don't notice it..."

Angelize smiled lightly and said jokingly.

"What is this..."

"It means——" Angelize interrupted Wendy's words unceremoniously, and said coldly: "You, the Maiden of the Wind, the qualified person who longs for gems, Wendy of the Hurricane—you are only one step away. In a little bit, you will become a lawyer!"

Angelize used the index finger and thumb of her right hand to draw a very subtle distance.

"Law...?"

"The Desire Gem implanted in your body can indeed bring you powerful power, but this power comes at a price, Wendy." Angelique said lightly: "The more you use it, the Herrscher's The greater the probability, sooner or later, you will be completely assimilated by the Herrscher consciousness residing in the gem of desire, and become a complete Herrscher!"

"Angelie... how do you know this!? Could it be that..."

Wendy bit her lip, and she thought of the 'rumor' that she regarded as a 'rumor out of nothing' in the past.

Perhaps, Angelize and Michelle really...

As if sensing Wendy's thoughts, Angelize glanced sideways at her, and said lightly:

"Ah, that's right, it's the 'could it be' you think——all the 'rumors' you've heard about the Michelchi family are true, we are indeed not native nobles from Oceania, but from the Far East The immigrant, the Western-style surname of Misir Qi is just a cover, 'Turtledove' is our real surname."

Chapter 51. Turtledove

"Is that so... That's right, Michelle or something... Turtledove or something... So that's what happened..."

Wendy bit her lip, her harsh and hoarse voice could not hear the youthful vigor that a girl of this age should have at all.

The cruel reality is right in front of her, and Wendy really can't help being bitter...

I thought that the rumors about Angelize and her family were just rumors, but who knew that the Michelchi family was actually Mishima’s spy who broke into Destiny’s interior...

Wendy shuddered when she thought of Michelle—no, it should be said that the 'turtledove' family had been lurking in this remote overseas for at least 300 years.

300 years!That's 300 years!

The undercover agent in the movie was suffering for three years one after another, but the Turtledove family has been lurking for 300 years...

What is it that supports them to come this far?

"Who knows?"

Angelize shrugged and said indifferently:

"Maybe it's to get back the honor of the past, maybe it's to swear loyalty to Mishima, but more, it's simply because I'm used to this kind of life..."

"Habit?"

"Whether it's a good thing or a bad thing, if you do too much, you'll get used to it and become numb," Angelique smiled lightly, "After more than 300 years, there are still a few people who can 'never forget the original intention and achieve the end result' ?Most people have already forgotten the existence of Mishima, but unfortunately, someone gave us a big bucket of white paint before the last 'turtle dove' completely dyed its wings black."

"Modo...Ilz."

Wendy pronounced the name slowly.

"It's a good thing you can think of this." Angelique looked at Wendy in surprise. She thought that this girl was no different from the silly Baitian in the TV series, but now it seems that Wendy is at least not different. Silly...the brain is still quite flexible!

"In this Oceania branch, the only one who might betray is Modo Ilz, right?"

"Betrayal? It might be true for a dog of destiny like you, but it's a pity that neither 'we' nor Minister Modo think it's a kind of betrayal."

Angelique smiled slightly:

"Because, we never think that we are people of destiny! The premise of betrayal is to form an alliance or swear allegiance, but unfortunately, the relationship between us and destiny is not as pure as yours."

"Besides Misrqi and Modo... who else?"

"Don't worry, the person you are most worried about is not among them." Angelize snorted lightly, and said lightly: "Your friends did not betray, they were just imprisoned."

"Uncle Orka... sister Reina..."

"Although the positions are opposite, we are former colleagues at any rate. When we can not kill the killer, we will try our best not to kill the killer." Anqi Lijie folded her arms and said slowly: "Whether it is you or Orka brought Find your other Valkyrie, they are not in danger of their lives for the time being."

"for the time being……?"

"After all, we are not doing charity. If your companions are really so ignorant, then we will naturally not continue to be soft-hearted-Minister Modo is still too soft-hearted, and he still treats you as 'one of our own'..."

"You mean..."

Wendy's heart moved, she seemed to realize something, Angelize also frowned, and said unhappily:

"Who knows what's going on with that guy, he looks colder and fiercer than anyone else, but in the end his heart is so soft that he can't bear to kill anyone... Heh."

She shook her head, her tone full of sarcasm and...another complex emotion.

Perhaps the problem is as simple as that in Modo's view. Although everyone's position is different, one side intervenes as a dog for Tianming, and the other side is also a dog, but Mishima's dog chain is at least not so tight... But in the final analysis, everyone They are all dogs, they are all people from Oceania, and they are compatriots living on the same land.

Since no one has committed acts of betrayal of the land, it is natural that they cannot be regarded as pure 'enemies', but 'our own people' with different positions.

From this point of view, Modo's approach...doesn't seem to be a problem, it's just that Wendy, who is used to complete confrontation, doesn't quite adapt.

"Minister Modo... He let us go."

Wendy sighed softly, feeling complicated and difficult to understand.

"But what's the use of saying this now? Want to convince me to join you?"

"You can understand that you are using talk to weaken your sense of resistance," Angelique shrugged, and said indifferently: "Anyway, talk is like this, if you think it is useful, it is useful, and if you think it is useless It’s useless, I’m just doing my best to obey the destiny.”

"At this point... do you still expect me to fall to your side?"

"Even Minister Modo wouldn't be so naive. We just want to weaken your sense of resistance to facilitate your next actions."

Angelize didn't hide her secrets, and directly stated her purpose openly.

"What the hell are you guys trying to do!?"

The moment a bad premonition arose in Wendy's heart, Angelize also said decisively:

"Simply put, we're going to give you a longing gem removal operation—well, isn't it touching? It's not going to do you any harm any way you look at it, is it?"

"They say that the desire for gems will bring the possibility of herrscher transformation, but in fact they still want to take its power for themselves... Aren't you afraid that the new qualified people will run away?"

"Don't get me wrong, Wendy, your gem is not our goal, but our new master's goal."

Angelique stepped forward slowly, her eyes fell on Wendy's legs bound by chains:

"Neither Modo nor Turtledove have any interest in dangerous things like Herrscher's gems. Probably only a lunatic like Otto would try to take Herrscher's for himself? Well, we His new masters may be one of them, but they are much more sensible than Otto."

After a pause, Angelize continued:

"To be honest, you should be grateful to Modo—our new master's original plan was to extract the Desire Gem directly from your corpse after killing you, just like the people in the previous era, but Modo was reluctant, He thinks a gentler way can be used to sever the connection between you and the gemstone of desire, and our new master also agrees with this method... feel lucky, Wendy, you have saved your life, okay?"

With a bit of a playful smile, Angelize moved her fingers lightly—it wasn't until then that Wendy realized that she had put on a pair of white medical gloves at some point.

"Come on, let's start the operation, Wendy~ I hope the 'talk therapy' on you before can have the desired effect, otherwise, you might be in so much pain that you can't help but cry?"

Hua Zero's words: I am a little looking forward to next week's S Hill, but because I skipped the entire third anniversary event (I haven't left the haunted house yet, and I haven't shared the third anniversary report), I only have 15 cards+ now 5600 water... 35 pumps, 13 in a panic!

Chapter 52. The future is really promising.

Angelique actually didn't tell the truth, but she didn't tell all the lies—true and false, false and true, this is the art of language.
