Let Me Shoulder This Blame!

Chapter 43: The gentle villain

Views:

On the way back to Infinite City, Su Shi made a special trip to the supermarket.

Finally, the mirror frame that was glued crookedly with tape was replaced, and the image of the son of hell improved a lot in an instant. When Su Shi gathered up the mutated orchids that were pretending to be wings and fell, he was even relieved to hear the gasps of panic from the crowd.

The bloodthirsty forest has been forcibly blasted open a gap by artillery fire, the sky has completely darkened, and the broken branches and poles look more ferocious in the darkness, causing a deep chill in people's hearts for no reason.

When he saw the legendary Son of Hell who could wipe out a team at will, the chill undoubtedly reached its peak.

"You've finally figured it out—Son of Hell, I've been telling you to be arrogant for so long, today is the time to settle the score."

The leader of the coalition forces is General Sun Shuo of Base B. He has wind and gold abilities. He has been promoted to S-level many years ago, and he is currently the most powerful person in the world.

The Bloodthirsty Forest is right next to Base B, and it has always been Sun Shuo's big worry. Base B has hunted Hell's Son for a long time because of this, but there has been no substantial progress. It is rare to take advantage of this incident to cause panic in all bases, and of course they will not let go of this rare opportunity.

Su Shi didn't respond, and didn't even turn his gaze to him. He just caressed the half of the broken tree trunk, and then raised his hand, the tree was quickly stretched out in front of people's eyes, and when his figure was completely over, it had grown taller and more lush than before.

The rest of the plants that were cut off by the artillery fire also regenerated in a blink of an eye. In just a few breaths, the Bloodthirsty Forest, which was finally torn a gap, has completely restored its previous scale, and even spread outward for a long distance.

"Sure enough, this forest is nourished by your strength..."

Sun Shuo's eyes flickered slightly, but his face showed some complacency, and suddenly he waved his hand vigorously: "Attack with all your strength! I want to see how much power you have and how far you can make them grow!"

The bloodthirsty forest only responds to abilities. If you only use thermal weapons, you will not be counterattacked by those plants.

There was already a successful experience, and the courage of the coalition forces has grown a lot. The guns rang out, and all the artillery fire poured down on the terrifying forest for a while.

Huge vines suddenly burst out in front of Su Shi, shielding him from the pouring artillery fire. Su Shi raised his eyes, and the light gray smoke quietly spread from his sleeves, and those who were close suddenly felt extremely sleepy, After yawning twice, his body involuntarily collapsed.

"Quick back!"

Several stronger supernatural beings discovered the problem and hurriedly spoke up. Sun Shuo's eyes froze slightly, and he shook his arms vigorously. A gust of wind suddenly swept away the wispy smoke.

"You don't need to use these little tricks. This is not the core of the bloodthirsty forest. Even if I use the power, you can't really hurt me."

A frightening chill flashed across Sun Shuo's eyes, and the wind blade rolled towards Su Shi mercilessly. From the corner of the eye, he saw some timid coalition forces, and his tone sank severely: "I will restrain his abilities and continue to attack. , otherwise no one will even want to go back alive!"

The artillery fire became more intense in a blink of an eye, and the forest was constantly being destroyed and reborn in a blink of an eye.

Tough vines burst out of the ground, interweaving into a natural cage, locking the nearest group of people tightly inside. As long as there is a little struggle, the cane will be tightened immediately.

Except for the high-level ability users with the ability to protect themselves, most of the members of the allied army were only ordinary B and C-level abilities. They were more and more frightened by the new changes in front of them. Even if they were stopped loudly, they retreated one after another.

The pressure eased a little, Su Shi frowned slightly, took an inventory of the plants he could use, and still sighed in distress.

In order to ensure that the extremely evil reputation is only a misunderstanding of people, he must ensure that all the methods he adopts will not directly harm people's lives. Even the previous lightning-type supernatural user should have been able to live as an ordinary person without supernatural powers, but because he was overwhelmed by fear and despair and gave up using mental power to heal himself, he lost his life just like that .

The gray smoke is nothing but mutated spores that can stun people. Although the vines can trap people, they won't threaten life safety.

While being besieged by powerful firepower without any effort, at the same time, the strength of the counterattack must be considered. Although Su Shi could still try his best to support him in a short period of time, he already vaguely felt that he was unable to do what he wanted.

The lightning surrounding the crystal nucleus kept flickering, and the newly absorbed lightning power was obviously dissatisfied with the current disadvantage, stirring violently, and even began to try to break through the restraint of mental power.

Su Shi took a deep breath, and simply let go of the restraint for a moment. A fierce electric arc danced and circled on the rattan in an instant, and a tragic cry of pain suddenly sounded from the edge of the forest.

At most, it can only be charged once, and no matter how serious it is, there will still be problems. Su Shi suppressed the supernatural power again, his chest heaved uncontrollably, his eyes swept across the crowd, and his dark pupils, which had always been indifferent and calm, finally showed some coldness.

Already frightened, hearing the screams of their companions, many people even dropped their weapons and fled without looking back. Even those who barely stayed were already trembling with fright, and involuntarily put down their weapons .

The battle situation came to a stalemate for a moment, Sun Shuo's face was so dark that it almost dripped water, but he still issued an order to suspend the attack.

The ready-to-go vines also gradually dormant, and the figure in Lin Zhong relaxed slightly from the tense posture of preparing for the battle, the coldness in his eyes gradually eased, but his eyes were still full of vigilance.

"Actually, our two sides may not have to meet each other like this. If we can reach an agreement, why must we use this method to solve the problem?"

Seeing that the soldiers of Base B were unscathed behind, while his own side and several other bases had suffered heavy losses, the person in charge of Base T stepped forward and softened his tone meaningfully.

"There will be no results in this way. Why don't we take a step back for the time being? If Infinite City and Dark Forest can be included in the subsidiary domain of Base B, and Base B will be responsible for the communication and exchanges between the two parties, we don't necessarily have to participate here. Siege..."

Sun Shuo glared at him fiercely, his eyes almost showed some real anger.

If Infinity City could be annexed, Base B must have made a move long ago, and it will never wait until now. According to the person in charge of the other party, as long as the sons of hell are willing to admit that they are affiliated, from now on, no matter what disasters they cause or which base they rob, Base B will be responsible.

This solution was simply whimsical, and Sun Shuo was about to shout him back, but Su Shi had already spoken first: "I will not hand over Infinite City to anyone."

His tone was very flat, almost without any special emotion, but somehow showed a decisive attitude.

Sun Shuo's eyes moved slightly, and fell on the son of hell who had lived alone for a long time, and a mocking coldness suddenly appeared in his eyes.

"Your strength has indeed exceeded my expectations. In fact, we don't necessarily have to be enemies. If you don't want to be affiliated with a certain base, you can also consider joining the base alliance..."

He was clamoring to get rid of the other party just now, but now his attitude has turned 180 degrees. The people in charge of the other bases were stunned for a moment, watching Sun Shuo calm down and walking towards the son of hell step by step.

Su Shi raised his head to look at him, and put one hand behind his back unobtrusively.

Sun Shuo's expression became more and more relaxed, and he walked towards him slowly: "We know that you have been wronged in the past, but those things are over. You don't need to take revenge on anyone, and you can put forward any other conditions..."

His tone became more casual. The moment he stepped into the attack range, the extremely condensed abilities burst out of his body instantly, and densely packed sharp wind blades with a faint blood glow shot out towards the opponent like a shower.

Su Shi had been on guard for a long time, and instead of retreating, he moved forward, protected his head and neck with one hand, and turned a leaf into a knife to slash across the opponent's chest.

The two figures separated as soon as they touched each other, and each other's chests heaved violently. Su Shi's body already had countless small wounds, but Sun Shuo's chest was also plowed open with a bloodstain.

The wind blade is far sharper than the previous lightning-type ability, and Sun Shuo has been promoted to S-level for a long time. The bloodthirsty vine was cut into several pieces by him as soon as it jumped up, and it fell to the ground to be swallowed again.

The other party's abilities seemed difficult to deal with. Su Shi didn't dare to release the pitcher plant at all. He covered the wound on his shoulder with one hand, gasping for breath, and his eyes fell on Sun Shuo.

The red seeds blended into the blood dripping from Sun Shuo's chest without a trace, and after receiving his thoughts, they quietly slipped in along the wound.

The thatch leaf that Su Shi picked up casually still had barbs, and the wound it left behind was excruciatingly painful. Sun Shuo didn't notice anything unusual at all, but just gritted his teeth and took a bottle of recovery potion, and gulped it down.

The mask of hypocrisy was completely thrown away, and Sun Shuo's complexion became gloomy again, and his cold eyes fell on Su Shi: "It seems that you are smarter than you imagined——in this case, I can't let you go survived..."

Some cruel blood flashed in his eyes, and he suddenly raised his hand and shook it out of thin air.

The wind blade still remaining in the wound suddenly exploded, and the intense pain instantly deprived Su Shi of his will, and before he could even react, his body had already collapsed.

Without giving him any time to breathe, the cannon fire poured down again, and without the supply of host power, the bloodthirsty forest was torn open a bigger gap in a blink of an eye.

A smug smile finally appeared in Sun Shuo's eyes. With a vigorous wave of his hand, the soldiers of base B launched a crossbow machine with a cold light, aiming at the figure who was already unable to move.

A familiar picture suddenly appeared in his mind, and Su Shi suddenly raised his head, looking at the inconspicuous dark green liquid medicine on the alloy crossbow, his eyes suddenly narrowed.

"This is the latest weapon developed by Dr. He. It can melt a person from the inside of his body, corrode his crystal nucleus, and completely pollute his power. Since this forest is born on the basis of the children of hell, as long as it can Inject this tube of liquid medicine into his body, and even the forest will be corroded clean."

Sun Shuo spoke slowly, and was satisfied to see that the heads of several other bases were all pale and shocked by the new weapons of Base B. He turned his gaze back to the figure still half kneeling in the forest, and twitched the corners of his mouth cruelly.

Su Shi lowered his head slightly, his short short hair was scattered on his forehead, and warm blood dripped down, dyeing his vision bright red.

This liquid medicine is not the latest weapon. Dr. Darkness had successfully developed it when he was at the central base, and injected it into the blood of a group of experimental subjects.

Those children who were the experimental subjects soon began to struggle desperately in pain, and cold despair spread from their bodies. After a long period of painful suffering, they finally calmed down, lost any signs of life, and were hastily pushed into a shallow pit.

The soil covered it, and the pain was etched deep in the flesh.

The next moment, a violent explosion suddenly came from the confidential laboratory, ruthlessly destroying all the above-ground buildings, and the bustling central base was reduced to dead ruins in an instant.

The ruins moved, and the pale young man struggled to push aside the soil and propped up his body again.

The liquid medicine and the radiation had an unexpected reaction, the mutated plant firmly protected him, the crystal nucleus quietly formed in his brain, and the dark pupils glowed brightly again.

Su Shi's chest heaved slightly, the light in his eyes dimmed, and his eyes fell on the additional clause of "within the limit set by the character, one blackening is allowed", and the blood in his eyes spread.

Obviously he has given up revenge, but if he is not allowed to live...

The strong fluctuations in mental power spread quietly, and the bloodthirsty forest suddenly fell silent for an instant.

The power of the crystal nucleus surged violently, and the lightning-type ability couldn't wait to join it, and the arc jumped on the pitch-black branches and leaves.

It is the sons of hell who are restricting the bloodthirsty forest. As long as the restriction is completely released, this forest will become the cemetery for everyone here.

Human beings are unaware of such communication, and still complacently wait for the victory at their fingertips. Sun Shuo sneered, and pressed the launch button forcefully: "You are not welcome to humans, go back to your hell!"

The corners of his lips were slightly raised and his eyes were lowered. Su Shi's mental power fluctuated violently, and the siren sounded sharply when the blackening value was close to the human warning line.

The system discovered his real purpose belatedly, and tried to stop him in panic, but was forcibly blocked.

Su Shi closed his eyes.

The expected pain did not strike, but the familiar warmth suddenly enveloped him involuntarily, forcibly stripping him from the cold night.

An extremely low muffled hum came from beside his ear, but the hand holding his shoulders did not relax at all, firmly protecting him and rolling a few meters on the spot before finally letting go of the momentum.

Su Shi raised his head to meet the tenderness and pain in those eyes, and his breathing didn't feel stagnant.

"sorry… "

Yuan Zheng's eyebrows were still full of unconcealable fatigue after the high-intensity rush, but there was still an extremely gentle light in his eyes, and the hand protecting his head and neck moved, gently stroking the ends of his hair.

After forcibly setting fire to the warehouse, he and his team members were finally able to escape, and rushed all the way to the bloodthirsty forest without sleep.

But it was too late.

The palms were moist and warm, and Su Shi's heart sank suddenly. He half-knelt on the ground and rolled over Yuan Zheng's body. The crossbow arrow had already sunk into his shoulder.

However, Yuan Zheng's expression was still very calm and gentle, and he even faintly showed indulgence. He let him turn himself over and over with a smile, and suddenly raised his hand to wrap around the thin arm in front of him, and pressed him into his arms forcefully.

"Sorry, not all humans are like this..."

He couldn't explain why the faces of the children of hell were different, but he could still definitely feel that the people embraced by him once handed out daisies representing hope to them, and tried hard to integrate into them, but only received sporadic warmth , I can't wait to give everything in return.

Yuan Zheng finally embraced the body in his arms, stood up with support, and protected Su Shi behind him, facing the mighty coalition forces.

"B base patrol is not destroyed, all of us are still alive."

The potion had already taken effect, and the intense pain made him almost unable to stand still, but his tone remained firm and calm: "He is not a son of hell, but an innocent victim who survived the destruction of the central base. There is no compensation, no shelter, He just had to live on his own, and that shouldn't be a reason to be dismissed...”

"Captain Yuan, you should know your position—your current attitude finally makes me understand why your team has been chasing the Son of Hell for so long, but they have found nothing."

Sun Shuo's eyes quickly cooled down, looking at the young supernatural being with a bright future ahead, jealousy flashed across his eyes.

The fire element and the light element almost represent the hope of the end times. When Yuan Zheng becomes stronger, he will definitely replace himself and become the core master trained by Base B.

"Of course I know that he has been treated unfairly. It is precisely because of this that he only has hatred for human beings left in his heart. If you let him continue to grow stronger, how can you guarantee that you will not die in his hands now? One day, won't more people be killed by him to vent his anger?"

It is necessary to maintain the panic of the rest of the base towards the sons of hell. Sun Shuo's tone is gloomy and cold, and his eyes are becoming more and more sinister: "If you must be a traitor to all mankind, then I can only kill my relatives..."

"Unfortunately, I probably don't need your help anymore."

Yuan Zheng coughed twice, and the blood quickly spread out. As soon as his body shook, he was firmly embraced by the arms behind him.

The strength on the arm was tense, Yuan Zheng's consciousness was a little fuzzy, and he turned his head to look at those eyes apologetically, his body could no longer support the corrosion of the medicine, and he collapsed completely slumped.

Su Shi couldn't catch him, and fell to his knees on the ground with the person in his arms, his chest heaving rapidly.

The effect of the potion took effect very quickly, and the blood gushed out from the corner of his lips unstoppably. Yuan Zheng was speechless, his eyes were dim and loose, but he still persisted in raising his hand, caressing his cheek comfortingly, and the corners of his lips curled up in a warm arc of relief.

"You're not going to die."

Su Shi held his hand firmly, and the light green breath of life poured into his body continuously. He calmly raised his eyes to meet the joy and cruelty in Sun Shuo's eyes: "If you save him, I will surrender."

"Stop dreaming! You have already reached this point, are you still thinking about negotiating terms with us?"

Sun Shuo sneered and sternly said, striding towards him, the wind blade had gathered beside him: "I can kill you with just one thought now, you—"

His voice stopped abruptly, his body was stiff and stagnant, and his eyes fell on his chest in horror.

A tender young leaf protruded from the wound.

The mental power swept across his body in a hurry, his complexion quickly turned pale, and his eyes almost showed strong fear.

Su Shi's expression remained calm, he insisted on pouring strength into the body in his arms, and repeated: "If you save him, I will surrender."

"No, I'm controlled by the bloodthirsty forest!"

Shouts of panic suddenly sounded from the crowd, and everyone lowered their heads suddenly, only to realize that the vines all over the ground had imprisoned them firmly without knowing it, and as long as the other party had a thought, they would be completely sucked up here.

"team leader!"

Suddenly, the anxious voices of the team members came from outside the crowd. Their speed was one step slower than Yuan Zheng's, and they finally arrived with all their might, but they only saw the frightening scene in front of them.

The Son of Hell knelt on the ground motionless, the person lying in his arms was breathless, the eyes that were always smiling softly were quietly closed, the blood was still gushing out like endless flow, the body was It has gradually cooled down.

Su Shi didn't look at them, but just lowered his head, and a crystal nucleus slowly emerged from his palm.

His crystal nucleus is also gentle light green, unlike the sharp octagonal shape of ordinary supernatural beings, but infinitely similar to the shape of ordinary plant seeds.

The deprivation of power made his face pale. Su Shi lowered his head, stuffed the crystal nucleus into Yuan Zheng's mouth, pushed his body forward, and spoke again in a low voice.

"You save him..."

He still has mental power, and he can also control the bloodthirsty forest and directly destroy everyone present.

But he couldn't save Yuan Zheng.

Dr. Darkness has an antidote in his hand, and the other party must be planning to take him back as an experimental material, and will never use a deadly poison to deal with him.

The arc was already crackling in the air, and Sun Shuo's voice was almost hoarse from fear at the same moment: "I have the antidote, I have the regeneration potion, I will save him, you stop first!"

The air became silent again, and Su Shi really withdrew the stimulation of his mental power, the vines gradually loosened, and Sun Shuo's body also recovered a little mobility.

The team members ran over in a hurry, their eyes showing fear and bewilderment.

Su Shi got up and stepped back, handing Yuan Zheng's body back to them, raised his hand to take the potion handed over by Sun Shuo, and handed it to the deputy team with red eyes.

"Feed him, you go to Infinity City, it's safe there..."

The crystal nucleus has been separated from the body, and once his spiritual power is dispersed, it will never be able to re-condense.

The deputy team was slightly stunned, hesitantly took the medicine and handed it to the doctor, and was about to speak, but Su Shi suddenly backed away quickly.

Even the protection of mental power has been completely given up, his body is already very weak, and he cannot completely avoid the figure in front of him.

Intense anger shot out from Sun Shuo's eyes, and he restrained all his abilities into the muscles of his body, and punched him hard on the chest.

Su Shi's body flew upside down, hit the tree trunk heavily, and slid down weakly.

The glasses also slipped off due to such a violent action, but he had no energy left to pick them up and put them on again.

His eyes fell on that familiar delicate face, the deputy team's eyes showed shock and astonishment, and he wanted to go over anxiously: "Xiao Shi—"

"Infinite City..."

Su Shi leaned under the tree, silently mouthed to him, and was bullied by Sun Shuo's red eyes, grabbed his collar and picked him up.

Calmly meeting his angry and embarrassed eyes, Su Shi's eyes fell and stopped on the other's chest.

He just gave up his control over other people, and temporarily restored Sun Shuo's ability to move, but the bloodthirsty plant that he had planted in the opponent's body was still dormant under the blood and muscles, waiting for one of him at any time. idea.

Sun Shuo narrowed his gaze, and his movements stopped instantly.

Watching the patrol team feed the antidote to the captain who didn't know whether he was alive or dead, and quickly stepped into the bloodthirsty forest with the man on his back, Sun Shuo's chest heaved violently for a while, but he suppressed his anger forcibly, and pulled Su Shi already unable to stand up. With a stable body, he was locked in the alloy cage that had been prepared.

The author has something to say:

Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, stop abusing right now! Σ(っ°Д °;)っ
