Luo Binhan felt that he was probably dead. He gritted his teeth, not wanting to say the spell that Yaleriga told him. But his body is now completely out of control. The more he tried to resist, the stronger the feeling of being invaded by insects and ants became stronger. When his tongue no longer belonged to him, the spell finally came out of his mouth.
He hoped Asabam heard a syllable wrong, but she immediately raised her dagger and repeated it word for word.
For the first few seconds she looked successful. Blue fire ignited from the dagger, just like Luo Binhan used it. But then Asabam suddenly threw away the dagger. Her palms were red and shiny, and green smoke was rising from them.
She stared at Luo Binhan coldly. But in fact, Luo Binhan didn't know what was going on. This dagger - which Yaleriga calls 'Debovera's No Regrets' - must, as its name suggests, be without remorse when summoning the flames. But that doesn't sound like it would be difficult for Asabam at all, she should be able to use it easily.
But is it really so? An idea flashed in Luo Binhan's mind. The shadow of the blue magpie swayed before his eyes. Once, the White Tower apprentice helped him check the burns caused by the dagger in his spell workshop. What did she say then? She asked where the dagger came from, and said that the person who was willing to give it to him must value him. Because the weapons made by fairies are only given to specific people - they cannot be sold or robbed.
Luo Binhan struggled hard and made fragmented sounds from his mouth. Asabam noticed his actions. She didn't have any expression, but the shadow in Luo Binhan's mouth suddenly retreated. He was able to speak freely again.
"You can't use this," he gasped.
"reason."
"Fairy weapons, have you heard of them?"
In Luo Binhan's imagination, this concept must not be difficult at all for Asabam. How could the mysterious Dwarf Star guest not even have the knowledge of a White Tower apprentice? But he was surprised to find that Asabam didn't say anything after hearing this sentence. She frowned slightly, as if she was still waiting for Luo Binhan's next words.
"...It cannot be robbed." Luo Binhan had to add. Out of caution he omitted the part about the gift.
Asabam fell silent. She held the dagger and stood still in the dark like a sculpture. Luo Binhan observed her calmly. At this time, the original injuries on his body had alleviated a lot, and he found that as long as he did not deliberately resist, the shadow entrenched in his heart would not cause him pain. In fact, far from hurting him, it actually healed the penetrating wound, allowing him to breathe smoothly.
This temporary respite allowed his mind to come alive again. Many fragments of thoughts flashed in his mind. Pelican, Skynet, Fire Wings, festering wounds, Assabamu turned into a blackened spine... What do all these things that happened before his eyes mean?
"You're being attacked," he blurted.
Asabam looked at him without any emotion or anger. Luo Binhan couldn't tell from her attitude whether he had guessed correctly, but he noticed that he could still speak freely, which at least meant that Asabam was interested in what he said next.
He did have a guess, but he still hadn't fully figured it out. There must be a link that he didn't know about, but he didn't ignore the feeling he had not long ago. Those golden lights, those wings with fire, that strange feeling...
The shadow squirmed inside him again. Asabam obviously had no interest in wasting too much time with him. Luo Binhan decided to take a gamble.
"You guys are having a fight, aren't you?" He said quickly, fearing that Asabam would make a hole in his stomach right away, "A dwarf star with a winged head. A winged head with a bunch of eyes and as many legs as Octopus. He was the one who made you what you were, wasn't he? He's the one who did all those bloody wounds on your body. You wanted my dagger because you found it could cut through that net."
Asabam silently put his hands behind his back, his posture was a bit like Jing Huang. Luo Binhan judged that she was listening. That's a good sign, but what does she want to hear? What does she want now?
"I," he said, clearing his throat, "it's possible, I know who he betrayed you for."
That was already quite far down the road of speculation. Once the premise was wrong, it would be the opposite, but Luo Binhan still had to continue guessing. He said dryly: "You may find that his personality has changed a bit recently. He likes eating sweets very much, or he loves to play the guitar, and he also led a note to——"
Asabam's eyebrows twitched, and Luo Binhan immediately carefully skipped what he wanted to say and changed his words: "Still very close to a murderer."
He tried his best to appear as if nothing had happened, secretly waiting to see Asabam's reaction. He didn't know what the conflict between Asabam and the winged head was. Maybe it was their common plan to lure Upsilon away, or maybe even Zhou Wenxing was their accomplice. Then there would be little room for him to perform.
"Murderer," Asabam repeated. She always seemed to have only one tone of voice, which made Luo Binhan unsure whether she was asking a question or not.
"Yes, a murderer." He said, "He has a guitar on his back and a pretty face. Have you seen him?"
Asabam was noncommittal. Luo Binhan had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue: "I heard that he has a medicine that can make people start to pervert without any problems. Then I heard that your wing-headed accomplice is taking this medicine. What a coincidence, isn't it?"
"You've heard too much," Asabam said. Her tone sounded like she was ready to take action in the next second, which made Luo Binhan's heart feel cold. Then she stretched out her hand and ordered without resistance: "Tell me everything you know."
That's simply unruly. Luo Binhan glared at her angrily, but the next second the shadow occupied the tip of his tongue, making him stumble to speak.
Assabam asked him to "tell everything he knew", but perhaps this order could not be implemented at all, so the shadow started from the moment he met Zhou Wenxing. He couldn't help but reveal the terrifying chase between himself and Zhou Wenxing, the intervention and disappearance of Upsilon, the Silence coming here to find him, and how he was almost tortured to death by a crazy star, but was finally killed by a pelican. The lican sent it here.
If Luo Binhan had spoken about this voluntarily, he was confident that he could talk for hours. But when the shadow controlled his lips and tongue, the narrative he was forced to organize was extremely concise, and sometimes not even coherent at all. sentence. It felt weird, as if a different personality had invaded his body, and they had nothing in common except shared memories. He heard some dry and empty statements coming out of his mouth, and in just a few minutes he finished telling all his recent thrilling experiences.
During this process, Asabam just listened as coldly as a wooden stake. She can be said to be the most incompetent audience Luo Binhan has ever encountered, and she has no reaction even when he talks about a man-eating star. When Luo Binhan finished all this dryly, she only showed concern for one thing.
"Xuan Hongzhi Jade is chasing that Yongguang clan." She said. Luo Binhan still couldn't tell whether she was making a statement or asking a question, but he nodded in agreement. That's nothing to hide. She could know anything as long as Asabam asked. If he wanted to hide something, it would only be the part she didn't ask.
In order to prevent her from having this opportunity, he took the initiative and said: "That Yongguang tribe is chasing your winged head. I guess he wants to take revenge. Look, you are looking for a traitor, or you are looking for the young master. The young master is looking for the Yongguang tribe. The Yongguang Clan is looking for traitors—generally speaking, we still have a common goal."
"We didn't," Asabam said.
"We can have it." Luo Binhan said without giving up, "Don't you want to get the young master to join your gang? Do you think this can be done after you kill me? Can't we happily go back to each house to find our respective mothers?"
He apparently made his true desires too explicit, so much so that Asabam finally showed his first and most obvious expression since their reunion. She twitched the corners of her mouth and gave a rather stiff smile. Luo Binhan could recognize her expression. It was the way his high school math teacher, who was suspected of having a facial nerve disorder, tried his best to express ridicule when he saw his final grades. This expression lasted throughout his high school years, proving from another perspective that hard work often does not yield satisfactory results.
"You really don't have to laugh if you don't know how to laugh." He said sincerely, causing the shadow in his heart to twist hard. Luo Binhan almost cried, but in the end he just held it back in a cold sweat.
"We really have no grudges." He said to Asabam, "We didn't get along very well just now, but at least I got you off that thing. Do you want to make some heroes with the young master? Epic, that is between you and him, there is no need to kill me. But if you kill me here, it will definitely not make the young master more willing to listen to you, do you understand?"
"You stayed on that ship for a long time." Asabam said nonchalantly. She looked at Luo Binhan emotionlessly for a while, then slowly moved away. When she did this, Luo Binhan breathed a sigh of relief for no reason. He vaguely felt that Asabam didn't want to kill him as much as last time, at least not in such a hurry. Is that because she thinks he's been on the Silence long enough? Or is it because her current condition is not as good as last time?
But Asabam's next move made Luo Binhan nervous again. She grabbed his dagger and her eyes fell on Bang Bang. At this moment, Bangbang finally realized that something was wrong. The leg next to Luo Binhan was as hard as a stone. Although Luo Binhan didn't want to place excessive demands on a student who spent most of his life in an ivory tower, he inevitably felt that Bang Bang's characteristics were a bit hindering.
"He has nothing to do with this." Luo Binhan said without thinking, "He is from out of town. An unlucky guy who accidentally got involved. But his robot is quite useful. If you take him along, it might be a help."
Asabam gave him a confused look. She showed that extra hard-working smile again. Luo Binhan couldn't help but miss Soma Shasthiya sadly. He knows that Shasi may not be a successful villain in terms of strength, but that is not the fault of Shasi not working hard enough, and there may no longer be such a funny, moral, tasteful, business-savvy, sound personality and cute and charming person in the world. of villains, the rest are perverts, paranoiacs, facial neuritis and bipolar disorder. Why can't a good and bad person live a long life?
He wandered for a few seconds, and then found that Asabam was no longer looking at Bang Bang. The dwarf star guest with ulterior motives flicked his wrist lightly, and the dagger jumped to Luo Binhan's head like a small stone, and the blade fell downwards. It looked like it was going to poke a hole in Luo Binhan for a moment, but it just happened to hang on the pocket of his coat, and he didn't hurt a hair.
"Oh!" Bang Bang exclaimed, "Amazing!"
"Show off." Luo Binhan said lifelessly. His free hand quickly grabbed the handle of the knife and held it tightly. While he was pondering Asabam's intentions, he let his eyes wander around, trying to find his lost gun.
Asabam let him do it. The shadows suddenly expanded in all directions from the soles of her feet, and then shrank back into a small ball. Only one of them raised high and handed a dusty pistol into her palm.
"You want this," she said.
Luo Binhan shrugged. He felt that the current situation was better than his own. He should at least be grateful to this murderous girl for not killing him immediately. Furthermore, he could ask her to return the gun to him in a nice voice. He had already squeezed an enthusiastic smile on his face, and then he heard Asabam say a word coldly.
"Kneel down," she said.
