Light?
Is this light?
In the dark consciousness, Black Eyes felt a faint light shining in front of her eyes, and she couldn't help but reach out towards the light.
As an assassin who lives in darkness, darkness is Heitong's protective color, but Heitong instinctively wants to get closer to that light.
Didn't she endure the incomparable darkness just so that others could bathe in the light? She has an incomparable desire for light.
Reaching out to grab the light, the black pupils suddenly opened their eyes, and what they saw was an unfamiliar ceiling.
"What's going on? Am I not imprisoned by that weird old man? Where are the others?"
Heitong sat up from the cloth, now she was full of doubts.
Originally, she was going to join the famous General Esdeath and become a member of the special police force "The Hunters". However, on her first day at work, her immediate boss, General Esdeath, suddenly resigned and said, "The Hunters" "The army was declared over before it officially started, and the black pupils extracted from the kingdom's assassination force were directly transferred back.
But it doesn't matter, as long as she can do things for the kingdom and contribute to the stability of the kingdom, Heitong doesn't mind what department she is in. Although it is a pity that she can't work with General Esdeath, the backbone of the kingdom, she feels at ease when she returns to the assassination force. , because she still has some concerns about how to get along with strange colleagues. Her former teammates in the assassination team said that her personality is a bit off-line and she may not be able to make friends with ordinary people.
But just when Heitong returned to the assassination unit to receive "recuperation" from the doctors inside, a weird old man broke into the medical room, killed all the doctors and nurses who were "kind and enthusiastic" to him, and took him to A country called Japan is very far away from the kingdom.
The old man claimed to be his great-grandfather and came to save her, but Heitong hated the old man to the core, because the old man killed all the members of the kingdom's assassination force in front of Heitong, and those were all Heitong's companions. ah!
The old man killed the assassination team, but Heitong was left alone. During the time he was imprisoned by the old man, Heitong tried many ways to escape, but all failed without exception.
Heitong also thought about assassinating the old man. After all, compared to escaping, assassination is Heitong's specialization. She pretended to be obedient, deceived the old man's trust and then poisoned the old man, but the old man still saw through it.
She also broke the rules, scolded the old man, and asked him to kill her directly, but the old man just shook his head and did nothing to her. He just imprisoned Heitong, but never harmed Heitong in the slightest.
This deadlock lasted for about half a year. Because Heitong had not received "nurturing care" from the assassination department for a long time, Heitong's health deteriorated and finally reached the point where it was difficult to move. The old man became anxious and used various methods to treat Heitong, but to no avail. .
During the last period of losing consciousness, Heitong looked at the old man's anxious face, but what emerged in his heart was pride.
You deserve it, who asked you to kill all those doctors!
After that, Heitong completely lost consciousness, or her consciousness completely fell into darkness. It was not until just now that she discovered a ray of light in the darkness, and then she regained consciousness.
Feeling something foreign in his hand, Heitong opened his hand and found that he was holding a beautiful crystal bead in his hand.
"What's this?"
Just as doubts arose in his black pupils, severe pain suddenly occurred in his head.
Damn it, here we go again!
This is her old problem.
In order to improve his physical abilities, Black Eyes underwent various body modifications in the assassination force, transforming him into a body that can continue to fight as long as his head and heart are still there.
But such transformation is not completely cost-free. The price is that it greatly overdraws the vitality of the body, leaving Heitong with only a few years of life. Moreover, his head will suffer severe pain from time to time, making Heitong miserable.
However, Heitong did not resent the assassination team, because this was what she did willingly.
In order to protect the stability of the kingdom and prevent more orphans like her and her sister from being born, she would not complain even if she was shattered to pieces, let alone just losing her life span? Without the kingdom's adoption, she and her sister would have starved to death beside the trash cans on the streets of the royal capital. How would they have survived until now?
So for Heitong, the greatest meaning of her life is to be loyal to the kingdom!
It's a pity that his sister Chitong betrayed this great ideal, so even if Black Tong's heart was bleeding, he vowed to kill his sister Chitong in order to pay tribute to those companions who died at the hands of Chitong.
Pain, unbearable pain!
Heitong felt like there was another villain in her mind, treating the nerves responsible for transmitting pain as strings and playing them roughly, causing her to roll on the floor in pain.
In the past, when encountering this kind of situation, Heitong needed to take some special pills to relieve this extreme pain, but those pills have been destroyed by the old man, and the doctor who can make those pills has also been killed by the old man. She could no longer get those pills.
The severe pain made Heitong keep hitting his head with his hands, hoping that the pain outside the brain could distract a little from the pain inside the skull, because the pain inside the skull is what really kills people.
Knocking with just hands was not enough. Heitong even wanted to hit herself on the head with a hammer, but there was definitely no hammer around Heitong now. She could only knock the crystal bead on her head.
"hiss……"
A feeling of relief came, and the torturous headache was relieved. Heitong knocked hard a few more times. Each time he hit, the pain in his head was reduced by one point.
"pain!"
When hitting his head with a crystal bead caused pain, Heitong finally knew that his head no longer hurt.
Looking at the crystal bead in his hand with confusion, Hei Tong knew that it must be caused by this crystal bead, otherwise without taking pills, just beating his head would not be able to make the suicidal pain subside.
"you're awake."
An unfamiliar voice sounded, and Black Eyes looked warily towards the direction from which the voice came, looking for anything that could be used as a weapon.
It's a pity that this room was kept very clean. Except for the ball of cloth she was lying on, there was nothing else. There were no furniture or decorations, which made Heitong "It's hard for a clever woman to make a meal without rice."
Yan Kai walked up to Heitong, squatted down and carefully observed Heitong's complexion, and then nodded slightly: "The most difficult stage is over, and you need to adjust slowly."
He originally thought it would take at least seven days to achieve the current effect, but it turned out that today was only the fourth day and Black Eyes had already woken up.
Thanks to the Buddha nature in the crystal beads that suppressed Heitong's mental madness, the difficulty of Yan Kai's treatment was greatly reduced and the effect was much better.
But now Heitong has just woken up. It does not mean that she has recovered. It can only be said that the doctors of the kingdom's assassination force are really not human beings at all. They have made a lot of changes to Heitong's body, and transformed Heitong's body It was so riddled with holes that he simply treated Heitong as a consumable, and had no intention of letting Heitong live for how long.
"Who are you and what is this place?"
Black pupils asked Yan Kai.
Because Yan Kai asked her in Japanese, Heitong also asked Yan Kai in Japanese. Like Chitong, she knew some Japanese because of her father, but she was not proficient.
"My name is Yan Kai, the person who was entrusted by others to save you."
Yan Kai said to Heitong.
"Is it that old man?"
Black Eyes frowned.
"It's your great-grandfather!"
Yan Kai shook his head.
It seems that Heitong still has a deep misunderstanding about Beishan Xiongwu. Beishan Xiongwu also told Yan Kai that in addition to Black Tong's body transformation, the Kingdom's assassination force added to the painkillers given to Heitong in order to control Heitong. A large number of mind-affecting ingredients are used to facilitate their brainwashing. In this way, Heitong's loyalty to the kingdom will naturally be unshakable, and he can even wield a knife against his closest relatives for the sake of the kingdom without any hesitation.
Not only that, this analgesic medicine is even highly addictive. As long as he doesn't take it for a period of time, Heitong will have a splitting headache. Poor Heitong has never suspected that the assassination team thought those harmful pills were This is a magical medicine. Whenever I feel uncomfortable or injured, I take one pill. Later, I need to take a handful each time to stop the pain.
During the medicinal baths in the past few days, Yan Kai filled up the body's deficit and straightened out the meridians for Heitong. At the same time, he also forced out some of the poison that had penetrated into the bone marrow for Heitong. However, the poison was very stubborn and a large part of it was still there. Deeply rooted in Heitong, not even Yan Kai can do anything about them.
Fortunately, these remaining poisons mainly act on Heitong's mind, and crystal beads have a calming effect on the mind. Therefore, as long as the crystal beads are worn for a long time and reasonable treatment is provided, there is still hope for a complete cure.
"That's not my great-grandfather, he is the enemy who killed my companions!"
Black Eyes said angrily.
Anyway, she already knew that Beishan Xiongwu would not kill her under any circumstances, so she did not need to hide her hatred for him.
"Companion, are you referring to those who transformed your body into that state and asked you to perform various missions that were close to death?"
Yan Kai looked at Heitong with interest.
"That's all of my own free will!" Heitong said with a sacred face, "In order to protect the kingdom, I need strength, and it is understandable to pay a small price for it. And those worms that corrode the kingdom and the rebels who want to cause war, Don’t they deserve to die? The meaning of my existence is to kill all those who pose a threat to the stability of the kingdom, and I am willing to sacrifice myself for this!"
"..." Yan Kai thought about it for a while and found that Heitong was very determined and enlightened. If Yan Kai hadn't known what kind of mud the kingdom was, he would have been really touched.
"Hey... would you like to talk to me?"
Yan Kai asked Heitong.
"You can say whatever you want, but don't think you can confuse me."
Hei Tong looked at Yan Kaidao with an indifferent expression.
"I have never learned the skill of bewitchment, so I just want to ask you some questions."
Yan Kai smiled.
"..."
The black eyes were still looking at Yan Kai coldly. Although he didn't agree, his eyes seemed to be saying, ask quickly and get out after asking.
"You are an assassin, right?"
Yan Kai asked Heitong.
Black Eyes nodded silently.
"Who are the targets of your assassination?"
"They are all people who harm the kingdom!"
Black Eyes answered sonorously and forcefully.
"Then your purpose of killing them is to make the kingdom a better place?"
Yan Kai asked.
"Of course, I don't want any more orphans like me and my sister to be born."
Tears flashed in his black pupils.
She and Chitong's parents died in a turmoil in the kingdom, and that turmoil was caused by the resistance. Although the resistance had nothing to do with the current resistance, the turmoil caused by the resistance caused Countless children have lost their parents and become homeless, but this is real, so she will eliminate anyone who threatens the rule of the kingdom.
"Then let me ask again, has the kingdom changed for the better now?"
Yan Kai asked again.
"..."
Black Eyes did not answer immediately. She thought of the increasing number of people on the streets of the royal capital. This was not because the royal capital was prosperous and attracted more outsiders, but because the kingdom was in turmoil everywhere, and there were rebel uprisings everywhere. In cities outside the royal capital, citizens have trouble even having enough to eat, so those who are still able to escape have gone to the royal capital. As a result, the royal capital is now crowded, which has also given rise to various crimes.
"This is all the fault of the rebels and those corrupt officials, and it's my job to get rid of them!"
Heitong thought for a while and then said.
She attributed all the reasons to the rebels and corrupt officials, and this was the only answer her vision could give her.
"How many rebels have you killed over the years?"
Yan Kai asked.
"I can't tell..."
Heitong shook his head. It's not that she didn't want to say it, but she really couldn't remember. As long as they were confirmed to be rebels, the assassination team would kill those people without mercy. They would never leave anyone alive. They would kill one or two. Heitong I can still remember it, but once the number rises to double or triple digits... Heitong will become really numb and it will be impossible to remember.
"I just think you killed a lot of people." Yan Kai shook his head helplessly, and then asked Heitong, "Then do you feel that the number of people in the resistance army has decreased?"
"..."
Black Eyes fell into silence again.
Yes, have the number of rebels decreased?
No, the more she kills the rebels, the more rebels there seem to be. After she kills one rebel, she can see two, three or even more rebels appear in the blink of an eye. Endless killing...
What's more, when she first joined the assassination force, the resistance was just a scabies disease, but by the time she was captured by Beishan Xiongwu, the resistance seemed to have become so powerful that it loomed as a threat to the rule of the kingdom.
Former general Najitan, former number one warrior in the kingdom Brad, and even his sister Chitong, one of the ace members of the kingdom's assassination force, these people who were once important forces in the kingdom all turned around and joined the resistance.
General Esdeath used his troops like a god. Wherever the royal army she led looked at them, and wherever the sword pointed, the rebels all dropped their armor. However, even as strong as General Esdeath, they could not annihilate the rebels. The more we suppress...
Why is this? Why?
"Who do you think spawned the Resistance?"
Yan Kai asked Heitong.
"Who is it? Who is the source of all evil?"
Black pupils asked Yan Kai.
"Of course it's the decayed kingdom you said you wanted to protect!"
Yan Kai said directly.
"Kingdom?" Heitong's eyesight went dark and he immediately shouted, "Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
