Chapter 1149: Brother-in-law's New Employee "Frost"
The sky, which had been dyed blood red, returned to its clear blue color, and the smell of sulfur and decay in the air gradually faded away.
The destructive power brought by the apocalypse faded away, leaving only the devastation on the sea, silently telling of the tragedy of the catastrophe just now.
The Fatui who came to invade Nata suffered heavy losses at this moment.
The plague ravaged their bodies, causing countless people to develop pustules and ulcers in pain, turning them into pools of rotting flesh.
The flames of war burned their skin and ships, reducing everything to ashes.
The famine locusts are like greedy demons, gnawing on the flesh and blood, turning them into food in desperation.
Among the fools who came this time, three-quarters fell forever in the sea of Nata, some died from plague, some died from fire, and some died from locusts. Only one-quarter survived by chance.
It is worth mentioning that the scientific research ships that Dotorre had brought with him had long disappeared at this moment.
No one knows when they left or where they went.
However, these research ships were most likely evacuated in advance according to Dotorre's instructions.
This shrewd scientific research fanatic had already left a way out for himself the moment he saw Shao Yun appear. He would never let his scientific research results and ships be destroyed in this catastrophe.
When the weather returned to normal, the tip of the "fake" Capitano's sword pointed directly at Shao Yun.
"Come on, Mr. Shao Yun, let's begin the fight! This battle, our victory or defeat will determine Nata's fate. If I win, I ask you to keep your promise and not interfere in our affairs with Mavica or Nata."
"If you win, we, the Fatui, will immediately take the remaining people and leave Nata!"
After saying that, "Fake" Capitano kicked the ground with his feet and flew straight into the clouds in the sky.
Shao Yun watched the "fake" Capitano fly into the clouds, then turned and gave a look to the apocalypse horse "Famine" beside him.
The apocalyptic horse "Famine" immediately understood, opened its mouth and let out a low neigh.
In an instant, countless black locusts flew out from its four hooves, like a black torrent, quickly flying towards the clouds, piling up layer by layer in mid-air, and soon paved a "locust road" leading to above the clouds.
Shao Yun rode the apocalypse horse "Plague" and slowly rose into the air along this locust road, and soon arrived above the clouds.
The Apocalypse Horse "Famine" continued to release locusts on the clouds. Soon, a "locust platform" large enough for two people to stand and fight was built.
Shao Yun rode on "Plague" and stood opposite the "fake" Capitano above the clouds.
At first glance, it was like two top heroes in a martial arts novel, each carefully observing the other's flaws, ready to seize the opportunity and give the other a fatal blow at any time.
However, the two were not observing each other's flaws at the moment. Instead, they were using a special encrypted channel of the Abyss Network to have a conversation in their minds.
……
Communications within the Abyss Network's encrypted channels.
Frost: "Ciallo~(∠?w )⌒☆, Mr. Shao Yun, do you still remember me?"(￣▽￣)／
Shao Yun: "Who are you? You Apostles of the Abyss all look the same..." [?_??]
Frostfall: "I'm the Apostle of the Ice Abyss who argued with Brother Yuanshang in the Kingdom of the Night God. Haven't I been recruited?" (＞w＜*)
Shao Yun: "Oh, it's you. How's your job in the Abyss Cult lately?" (?????) Great!
Shuangjiang: "Thank you for your concern. Under the guidance of His Royal Highness the Prince and Brother Yuanshang, I have many new people and they are doing very well. We work from morning till night and have all the social insurances and housing fund."
Shao Yun: "You must have learned this from Yuan." (￣∠￣)?
Shuangjiang: "Haha, it's all thanks to Big Brother Yuanshang's good teaching." (＞w?* )?
Shao Yun: "Okay, it's hard to find a good job nowadays, so work hard in the Abyss Cult."
Frost: "Don't worry, I won't be lazy!" (???)?
Shao Yun: "Alright, let's stay in the sky for a while, then you get injured and go down, and then we can finish this fake death scene."
Frostbite: "In the middle!" (ノ≧?≦)ノ
……
At this moment, Alechino and Tartaglia, who were on the beach, were looking up at the clouds in the sky together with Mavica, Marani, Chaska and Ianshan.
No matter how hard they squinted their eyes and tried to focus their senses, they could not see what was happening behind the clouds. They could only silently guess the direction of the battle in their hearts.
Alechino had already prepared for the worst.
Tartaglia looked anxious, standing on tiptoe from time to time to look at the clouds, muttering to himself.
"What happened... Could something really have happened to the captain?"
Mavica's emotions were the most complicated. She clasped her hands together in front of her chest and prayed softly, "Mr. Shao Yun, you must win... Please don't let anything happen to you..."
Her fingertips trembled slightly, and her face was full of worry. With every second she waited, her anxiety grew.
Malani, Ianshan and Chaska also gathered around Mavica, staring at the clouds nervously, not daring to breathe.
Just as everyone was anxiously waiting, a figure suddenly broke through the clouds and fell rapidly towards the ground like a meteorite.
Mavica stared at the falling figure... There was no mistake, it was "Capitano"!
Capitano lost and Shao Yun won!
The winner has been decided, the "fake" Capitano lost and Shao Yun won!
"boom!"
There was a dull thud, and the "fake" Capitano fell heavily on the beach.
This heart-wrenching battle seems to have finally come to an end.
Immediately afterwards, Shao Yun rode the apocalypse horse "Plague" and slowly descended from the sky along the locust road paved by "Famine".
Black locusts gathered and dispersed behind him, escorting him to the ground.
Shao Yun pulled the reins and stopped in front of the "fake" Capitano, looking calmly at the "opponent" lying on the ground.
The "fake" Capitano, lying on the ground, covered his chest with one hand and supported the ground with the other hand. He coughed twice with difficulty, his voice weak.
"Ahem... I never thought this would be the power you used to save Nata from the abyss? It really lives up to its reputation..."
Shao Yun looked at him expressionlessly, and according to the previously agreed script, he said with a somewhat helpless tone:
"I don't want to do this, but war is cruel. We don't have a choice."
"Fake." Capitano looked at Shao Yun's face, his voice becoming weaker.
"Is this your determination to protect Nata? Ahem...it seems you care a lot...ahem..."
When Shao Yun heard this, his pupils shrank slightly and his heart skipped a beat.
That's not right! This part wasn't in the line we agreed on before!
……
Abyss Network's encrypted communication channel:
Shao Yun: "Hey! This is different from the agreed-upon script, isn't it? Mavica's right next to us!!! Just follow the script! You're causing misunderstandings!" (▼皿▼)
Frostfall: "Brother Yuanshang said that we should be a little sentimental at this time. It can create a better atmosphere..." (T^T)
Shao Yun: "Sentimental bullshit! Just follow the script from now on, Mavica will misunderstand! You're only causing me trouble!" o(▼皿▼メ;)o
……
It was true that what Shao Yun had said to Shuangjiang in the encrypted channel of the Abyss Network was that Mavica had misunderstood.
"Fake" Capitano's unfinished "care" had already drifted into Mavica's ears.
When Mavica heard the "fake" Capitano's words, she froze instantly.
Her eyes were fixed on Shao Yun, her heart began to beat uncontrollably, and the word "care" kept echoing in her mind.
Capitano didn't finish talking about caring... Could it be referring to me?
As soon as this thought came to her mind, Mavica quickly shook her head, trying to suppress it.
Impossible! Mr. Shao Yun is already married. He has Miss Ying and a lovely daughter. How could he care about himself?
But the more I deny myself, the stronger the throbbing in my heart becomes.
She recalled the scene of Shao Yun standing up for Nata: from guarding during the invasion of the Abyss to his determination to fight against the Fatui this time;
I remembered what Shao Yun said just now, "I am a dictatorial man, you wait for my triumphant return."
These images continued to ignite the love in her heart that had long since turned to ashes.
The emotions that she had previously suppressed were now like flames doused in hot oil, instantly blazing and could no longer be extinguished.
Mavica looked at Shao Yun's profile, felt the scorching heat on her cheek, and finally accepted her fate.
She no longer tried to resist this emotion, but let herself be engulfed by the burning flames of love, willingly accepting it even if it would burn her to ashes.
Mr. Shao Yun, are you trying to seduce me into committing a crime?
You clearly knew that I had already fallen in love with you, yet you still appeared again and again when I needed you the most... You succeeded, you completely made me fall for you.
Oh, Shibarak, please forgive me, the useless God of Fire.
I know that this is very shameless of me. I know that Mr. Shao Yun is already married, but I still can't help falling in love with him.
But I really have no choice. This time my heart has been completely captured by him and there is no room for anyone else.
Fate, why do you play tricks on me like this?
Why do you want me to fall in love with someone who is not destined to belong to me?
