The Delicate Beauty In the Hegemony Essay - Chapter 63
The night of the apocalypse is not quiet, and the sounds of birds, beasts and insects can be heard from all directions.
Shu Ning is like a loner, obviously afraid to die, but she has to force herself to go.
In just one hour, Shu Ning killed more than a dozen first-class beasts who just wanted to treat her as dinner. Although these first-class beasts would not cause physical harm to Shu Ning, they Those ugly bodies, especially those of insects, had a great impact on Shu Ning’s psychological endurance. Several times, Shu Ning wanted to give up this task and continue to go back to be her little mute.
But the mission can’t be stopped by her, either successfully pass the level or the mission fails.
If Shu Ning was killed by a monster, it would be considered a mission failure, but Shu Ning was afraid of those big bugs, but at the same time, she couldn’t help but wait for the bugs to come and eat her, so She could only be so scared that she almost collapsed, while biting the bullet and releasing her supernatural powers.
Finally, she did not encounter any monsters for a whole hour, and Shu Ning’s highly tense spirit was relieved a little.
But at this moment, a regular and harsh sound of brushing came from the grass by the roadside.
Shu Ning felt cold all over.
She recognized this voice, it was a centipede. In the last days, there were three-foot-long centipedes, and she only killed it once tonight.
Shunning doesn’t want to face it again!
For the first time, Shu Ning did not wait for the monster to appear before attacking, but put a ball of water directly on the grass, and the water quickly condensed after falling.
Shu Ning’s complexion changed greatly, and his armor turned into an armor. This is a centipede of at least second level!
Shu Ning instinctively looked back, although she couldn’t see it, she knew that Qin An was behind.
Shu Ning’s scalp was numb, and the ice blade appeared in the air, shooting at the connection between the two segments of the centipede, but the second-level beast already had wisdom and was more agile. Shu Ning’s ice blade slammed into its hard armored shell, and the sharp blade tip broke, not hurting the centipede in the slightest.
The centipede quickly crawled towards Shu Ning.
Shun Ning controlled the water and took off into the sky. Unexpectedly, the centipede suddenly propped up its upper body and flew over. Shu Ning pulled up again and barely brushed the head of the centipede. When Shu Ning turned around, the centipede had already climbed onto a tree trunk with a thick water tank next to it, and when it reached a high place, it flew towards Shu Ning again.
There are dense leaves on the top of the head, and there may be more dangers hidden among the leaves. Shu Ning did not dare to go up blindly, and could only pan to dodge.
The centipede’s attack was very fast, and Shu Ning couldn’t find a way to counterattack for the time being, but as the confrontation time continued, the centipede’s shadow on Shu Ning’s heart became lighter and lighter. Habits are like this. No matter how ugly and terrible things are, after seeing them for a long time, they seem to be the same. They are already ugly to the extreme. How ugly can they be?
This is also a growth, not pleasant, not affected by Shu Ning’s liking, like a mountain suddenly pressing on her shoulders, no matter how she resists, she can’t move the mountain, only Force herself to get used to the weight of the mountain, get used to it, the mountain seems to no longer exist, and she can live a normal life again.
Overcoming the fear in his heart, Shu Ning dodged more calmly, and began to rationally analyze the method of killing the second-level beast.
The second-level beast upgrades its defense, and the attack is the same as the first-level beast, it is a pure physical attack. The defense of the beast, kill the opponent.
Shun Ning tried the freezing technique again.
Ice failed, Shu Ning used boiling water.
Looking at the centipede lying on the ground like a sheet of iron, Shu Ning’s heart moved, she released a ball of water enough to surround the centipede, and the moment the centipede wanted to climb out, the water ball rose to the air. Without the support of the ground, the centipede would not be able to climb the water mass no matter how many legs it had. Watching it flip in vain, it was like an impenetrable human falling into the water. Shu Ning smiled and fell to the ground, giving the water mass that surrounded the centipede. Heat to boiling point.
The boiling water was bubbling, and the second-level centipede struggled more violently. The more vulnerable parts were exposed, the more the second-level centipede was worthy of wisdom. The tighter the group. However, this method can only delay the process of death. When it found that it was useless to make a turtle with a shrinking head, the second-level centipede expanded its body and struggled again.
Shu Ning watched this scene expressionlessly.
If there is no sympathy in life, what’s more, this second-level centipede refuses to die happily, so Shu Ning can’t be blamed for being cruel.
After a while, the secondary centipede was motionless.
Shun Ning was afraid that it would be tricked to death, so she continued to cook for ten minutes to make sure that the second-level centipede was really dead, and she let the boiling water freeze into ice.
She lost control.
The frozen centipede fell to the ground from a height and broke into several pieces.
The task panel jumped out, and the second-level monster column finally achieved zero breakthrough.
The first-level beasts have already killed more than 400, killing points every day, it is only a matter of time to complete the task, it is not too difficult for Shu Ning. On the side of the second-level beast, Shu Ning used to think that it would be difficult. With the experience of killing this second-level centipede, Shu Ning suddenly became more confident, and the thought of just returning to reality and enjoying peace, regardless of everything, also quietly disappeared. Retracted to the bottom of my heart.
“How do you feel?”
The cold voice suddenly sounded from behind, Shu Ning was startled, turned around and backed away, and saw Qin An’s familiar and unfamiliar face.
The danger was lifted, Shu Ning lowered his eyes, turned and walked forward.
Qin An followed at a distance of five steps, and said lightly, “You haven’t answered me yet.”
Shun Ning did not want to answer.
When she needed help the most, when she was on the verge of breaking down physically or psychologically, he did not show up to give her the support her human teammates could provide, even if Shu Ning understood that he was trying to experience her, For a short time, Shu Ning still couldn’t accept normal communication with him.
Like, you almost died, that person just stood by and watched coldly, watching you regain life little by little.
Shuning has a kind of emotional injury, which has nothing to do with love or hate. It is the disappointment of hoping for help but not getting a response.
Tomorrow, or even after a while, she will definitely regain her senses and thank Qin An for providing her with this opportunity to quickly experience, but at this moment, Shu Ning doesn’t want to talk to him.
On the road next to it, two tents suddenly appeared.
“It’s time to rest.” Qin An said.
Shun Ning really felt tired. Before she found a way to restrain the second-level centipede, she flew around, and was nervous at high speed, which consumed a lot of mental energy.
Qin An helped her set up the tent first.
Looking at his silent and busy figure, Shu Ning suddenly remembered that when she was in a coma during the day, it was like resting, but Qin An and the others kept on their way. Later, Qin An accompanied her out for training. , he hasn’t slept for a long time, and he even put the midnight whistle last night.
“Thank you Brother Qin.” Shu Ning walked out of that negative emotion and said sincerely.
Qin An glanced at her.
In order to prove that she really figured it out, Shu Ning smiled at him.
She has bright eyes and a sweet smile.
Qin An looked away, motioned her to enter the tent, and he went to build his own.
Shu Ning sat on the edge of the tent and said to him: “You go to bed first, I slept a lot during the day, I’m not sleepy now, I’ll call you at three o’clock.”
Qin An turned her back and asked, “Aren’t you afraid of another centipede?”
Shu Ning smiled: “As long as it’s not level three, I’m not afraid.”
Qin An: “Spider?”
He could tell that she was more afraid of spiders.
Qin An really wanted to rest, so he entered the tent without speaking.
Shu Ning exhales.
On the road in front of me, a familiar rabbit doll suddenly appeared.
Shu Ning looked at the tent next to him, it was pitch black and there was no movement.
Shu Ning smiled, picked up the rabbit and held it in her arms, it was soft and comfortable to hold.
