Darkness, loneliness, despair.
Just sinking into the abyss.
Unable to move.
A biting chill poured in from the pores of his body, invading his spine and soul.
The suffocating sensation of death spasms the lungs.
The strong water pressure squeezes every skin on the body.
Nono's consciousness is disappearing.
In this deep, silent pool, at this moment when consciousness was about to dissipate, Nono was surprisingly calm.
At this moment, the fear of death, the pain of tearing the soul, and the spasming lungs due to suffocation all became indifferent.
She kept sinking with the huge cross.
Her long hair like waterweed covered her pale face.
Her eyes looked at the faint skylight through her floating long hair, waiting for death in peace.
When you are truly in the state of death, all emotions become numb.
In her life, there seemed to be nothing worth remembering or boasting about.
She has lived in a false world her whole life.
There was nothing worthy of her nostalgia, and no one worthy of her nostalgia.
And the only person worthy of all her efforts had already died when she was very young.
Everything for her was already doomed.
The faint smell of blood penetrated her nostrils.
Her heart suddenly started bleeding.
The strong blood dyed the surrounding waters red.
Something pierced her heart.
All her strength was draining from her body.
She seemed to have experienced the same thing somewhere.
But she didn't have any impression.
Oh, this should be Nidhogg's memory, Nono thought to himself.
That supreme and noble being has returned, carrying with him the memory that belongs to him.
Countless unfamiliar memories began to wash over her mind and occupy her heart.
Washed by countless memory fragments, she suddenly saw the boy squatting in the corner.
He just squatted on the ground with his head lowered, like a quail burying itself in the soil, and like an abandoned puppy, so helpless and wandering, humbled into the dust.
And the surroundings were full of mocking and joking looks.
"Ricardo, we have no time, do you want to continue the class reunion?"
She pushed open the door and stretched out her hand towards the boy.
She obviously just felt that the boy was too pitiful, so she showed a little kindness to him, with the purpose of completing the tasks given by the school.
But that boy has been following her since then, and she can't get rid of him.
He followed her silently, always becoming ferocious and angry when she was in danger.
Under the waters of the Three Gorges, in the coastal Nibelungen, he would always yell ferociously at her not to die, and then rush to the front without looking back.
Nono suddenly remembered the story the boy told her.
She always felt that he was going crazy and had delusions.
It turns out that everything he said was true.
He has been following her, silently protecting her.
From that world to this world.
Even though she no longer remembers him, he still becomes ferocious and angry when she is in danger.
How silly, it turned out that someone would do everything for her.
She was thinking to herself as she fell into the abyss. Her vague and weak consciousness suddenly heard someone shouting something, which forced her disappearing consciousness together.
"do not die."
"do not die!"
The faint skylight suddenly rippled in circles.
A blurry figure broke through the sky and approached her.
With blurred vision, he tried to see the approaching figure clearly, but he couldn't see anything. His eyes were covered by the pool of water.
Her weak perception only felt that the trend of sinking into the abyss had stopped.
The spikes that penetrated her limbs were removed, and the chains that trapped her were breaking.
Her body was hugged by strong arms, and she was quickly escaping from the abyss, like a float, being dragged up to the surface, yet so safe, strong and powerful.
Daylight is getting closer.
The heavy restraints disappeared.
The consciousness that was so weak that it was about to disappear returned to itself.
Nuonuo knelt on the thorns everywhere, breathing heavily.
Every time I gasped, my lungs felt like they were being torn apart.
who is it?
Who pulled her out of the abyss?
She sat on her knees and raised her head, only to see a wisp of moonlight standing in front of her, blocking the ferocious mountains in the distance.
The moon-white priest's robe lit up like a silver moon under the dark sky.
The long silver hair is like three thousand gentle moonlights, swaying lightly.
Is it Ella?
Did Ella pull her out?
Taking Nuonuo with her, Ella has already planted her own will in Nuonuo's consciousness.
Ella, the ancient priest-emperor who controls spiritual power, is best at manipulating the spirit.
She did this to prevent Nono's consciousness from being torn apart and replaced by Nidhogg.
This is also the reason why she wants to take Nuonuo personally.
If Nono's consciousness is not strong enough and is quickly erased by Nidhogg, then even if Ella plants her own will in Nono's spiritual world, she will be powerless. Nono will eventually be wiped out by Nidhogg. Controlled by the will of the character.
"You are very good." Ella said calmly.
"Maybe." Nuonuo said, her eyes couldn't stop being sad and full of tears or pools of water.
The punishment was interrupted, and in the distance, the black giant beast that stretched like a mountain range slowly raised its head.
Suddenly, the heaven and earth shook and the earth cracked.
The dense cracks spread like a spider web.
When he looked towards the standing moonlight, the whole world seemed to be extinguished.
Those golden eyes were like two blazing suns, igniting the earth and sky.
With thorns and dead bones everywhere serving as fuel, the whole world burned at this moment.
He opened his mouth and roared at Ella.
It’s like the whole world is punishing Ella for Him!
"traitor!"
The flames ignited the prairie fire, pressing down on Ella like a ferocious beast.
Hunting in the sacrificial robe, Ella held the golden scepter in her hand and thrust it into the earth. Her long hair danced in the wind, and her tone was cold, "Let your body come over!"
Invisible ripples spread.
The cold moonlight radiated from Ella to the entire broken world.
The cracks in the earth were healed, and the fire that burned the entire world was extinguished.
Like a giant beast stretching over mountains, it crawled on the ground again.
The two golden pupils that lit up like the sun gradually extinguished and returned to death.
The whole world fell silent.
"Sister, don't die!"
"Sister, wake up, wake up!"
There was a murmur in my ears.
Nono slowly opened his eyes.
What caught his eye was a ferocious monster.
The monster looked so terrifying, but his eyes were so panicked.
The hot red blood filled his body and hers as well.
She was biting the monster in front of her bit by bit.
There were bite marks on his neck, shoulders, chest, and arms.
Blood flowed from those wounds, turning both of them red.
My vision gradually becomes clearer and my sanity gradually returns.
The dragon scales covering her face and body gradually receded, revealing a pale face.
She just stared at the monster in front of her with red eyes, wondering, are you stupid? You are resisting.
