"Huh... Huh..." My chest rose and fell greatly, I took a deep breath and regained my composure.
I looked at my corroded hands. This is war. The balance of luck will not favor any side. Whether you can survive to the end depends on yourself.
"Ha." I chuckled, turned around and raised my hand to cover the clear sunlight. The sunlight was very warm, shining on my hand bones, making my bones become transparent. I used blue crystal energy to block Tortori's ability, which seemed to also seal my own bleeding. The blood did not flow out like before when I was injured.
I didn't have time to notice this before.
I looked at Shining Liang who was clustered into a pile of gems on one side. His eyes were still blinking in the gems.
"Turn him into a gem. I'm worried that he will be resurrected." I wasn't worried about the previous Eclipse Ghost Clan, but I'm really worried about this kind of ghost king's beloved general. Who knows if he will be resurrected through photosynthesis? He is poison and there are too many unknowns.
"What color do you like?" he asked quietly.
I thought for a while: "Colorless." Because there is no color in my mind at the moment, maybe because I don't have any mood at the moment.
The shining eyes blinked repeatedly, and then, Tortori's body began to turn into a transparent gemstone bit by bit, like crystal, just like the crystal teddy bear I used to put on the bookshelf.
"The target person is dead, come in and recover the robot." I looked at the corpse on the ground for a while and said calmly.
"Yes, Ice Dragon will go immediately."
I turned around and stopped looking at the corpse: "Jun, Zongben? Are you okay?" They were knocked away just now. They are in the blue crystal energy, so they should be fine.
Pictures flashed intermittently in the lenses in front of them. It seemed that their external unit was somewhat damaged.
"I know, I'll ask the ice dragon to pick you up."
Those images flickered and disappeared.
Everyone is fine.
I calmly put down the lightsaber, slowly sat on the rough ground leaning against the cold gem, and took out the painkiller injection, muscle-stimulating spray and bionic skin from my pocket.
I bit off the sheath of the needle with my mouth in the sun, and inserted it into the still intact part of my hand. The pain began to slowly disappear. I breathed a sigh of relief, and my forehead was covered in cold sweat from the pain.
It seemed like I was the only one in the whole cave, so quiet. It allows me to heal quietly and take a breather.
Little by little, the blue light began to retract. When I removed the blue crystal energy, blood immediately began to emerge. The blue light spots in the blood could not completely stop the bleeding quickly. I immediately picked up the spray and sprayed it on my injured hand. White foam covered my hands, and I leaned against the stone wall to rest slowly.
When the white foam dries, it will turn into a layer of gel-like substance that wraps around my bones. The thick gel layer can also temporarily become the skin of my fingers.
"Is that your ability?" Shangliang asked softly. He still maintained the appearance of his gem, as if that was his safest state.
Gemstones are indestructible when burned by fire and incorruptible by acid and rot. Speaking of which, blue crystal energy seems to be unable to do anything to it. Because many types of blue crystals are gems that store part of the blue crystal energy.
Suddenly I discovered that Shining Liang was immune to most abilities in this world! He is almost the same as me.
"Well." I looked at him, "You are immune to Tortori's ability, why are you still afraid?"
His jeweled eyes blinked: "If I don't cooperate, he will hand over the young people in the clan to the queen. Our district is the only one that does not have to pay tribute to young people." His voice was very calm, maybe because of his extraordinary calmness. , or because he can turn into gems, he has a cold and strong character like stone.
"Do you need a beautiful boy?" He asked softly again.
I looked at him and saw that my hands were dry. I wrapped them in bionic skin, which is a kind of bionic gauze that is close to human skin and can stop bleeding: "I don't eat people, so you don't have to pay tribute to me in the future."
"You don't need anything? Not even gems?"
"No. I don't eat people."
He opened his eyes in surprise and stayed there for a long time before asking again: "Then what do you want?"
I looked at him: "You must protect yourselves!"
His jeweled eyes were wide open, and he stared at me blankly without making any further sound.
In the silence, I heard slight footsteps, and the mirror of the boulder turned into a gem reflected one cautious person after another.
"Sister Goddess!" Xiaomi ran out of the crowd.
Xiaomi's mother immediately grabbed her and held her tightly in her arms, preventing her from taking another step forward.
The people at the entrance of the cave were motionless. They just looked ahead nervously, as if my image was reflected on the mirror.
They never spoke, but they didn't leave either. Silence and sunshine flowed in the air together.
"What's the matter?" I asked in a male voice, breaking the silence between us.
"No, nothing happened..." The old patriarch said tremblingly, as if he didn't know what to say.
I didn't speak anymore and didn't want to stand up because I was a little tired.
Shining Liang looked at me, blinked, then stood up and walked out of the cave. The gems on his body began to disappear, revealing his ragged clothes.
He stood in front of the old patriarch and the others: "He is our new king, the Ice and Fire King, and he killed Tortolet."
"What?!" At this time, there were exclamations, and the crowd became commotion, but everyone's faces became frightened, panicked, uneasy, and timid.
"What difference does it make if one dies and another comes?" Soft sighs and whispers passed between them.
"We still have no hope."
"We'll wait until the effects of the medicine wear off on us!"
"Shut up! Don't say it!"
I turned my face slightly. The people in District 4 were a little different from Motto and the others. In them, I saw the fire of resistance that had not been completely extinguished.
"What does he want from us?" the old patriarch said in compromise, "As long as we don't harm the children, we are willing to do anything."
"I asked." Shangliang said calmly, "He said he didn't want anything."
"What?!" Exclamations immediately broke out.
"He said." Shining Liang spoke again. His re-opening made those surprised people immediately become nervous: "What did he say?! What does he want?!"
Shining Liang looked back, with a calm expression on his dirty face, and then he turned back: "I think he means that we are free, and he hopes that we can stand up bravely and fight for ourselves and Fight for the clan!”
I was slightly surprised by Shining Liang's interpretation of my words. Yes, this is exactly what I wanted to say! However, whenever I say this to Motto and the others, they are full of confusion. I thought the slaves of the Ghost Clan no longer knew how to resist.
It seems that I have overgeneralized everything. Here, in District 4, I see the hope for the future of the slaves.
