Chapter 382. Liufeng vs Hongzi
Chapter 382. Liu Feng vs Hong Zi
"Liu...Liu Feng?" Hong Zi obviously didn't know what was happening in front of her, and she just subconsciously read out the words that the man in front of her had just said. And the man in front of her made Hong Zi even more confused. Who was he? Why did he suddenly appear here? Where was the brat with pale golden hair just now?
"Yes." The man raised his eyebrows and smiled with a hint of excitement. "This name was used in my previous life, although I still use it in this life. But... wow. This is really magical. Miss Hongzi, I suddenly don't want to kill you. I want to... ask you about the secret of this fruit."
Yes, this man is me, not the seven-year-old Mingya, nor the eighteen-year-old Bing. But the twenty-four-year-old Liufeng, my previous life. Eighteen years ago, Yeyue sent me here. The so-called parallel world, or the derivative world of the second dimension, can actually pull me from my previous life to the present in the demon world, a world that goes against common sense. I have to say that this fruit is a bit interesting and magical. . No, maybe this is reasonable. What if Hongzi's so-called demon world and Yeyue's world belong to the same level? This does not seem impossible. After all, this is how I came here, isn't it?
"Okay, Miss Hongzi. Your doll is gone. I suggest you remove your defenses now and have a good chat with me. Maybe... I can spare you."
"You bastard..."
clang! ! !
Before Hongzi finished speaking, my fist had already swung out heavily, hitting the magic shield in front of Hongzi, but this magic shield was not red just now, but a layer of light gold. At the same time, the gem necklace on Hongzi's chest also lit up with a light golden light.
"Oh? Do you have any backup plans?" I shook my aching arm and said with a grin. "It doesn't matter. I have a lot of backup plans." I pulled out the sniper rifle from the necklace again and loaded it with armor-piercing bullets in front of Hongzi. With my current physique, I wouldn't feel too much pressure even if I used up all the armor-piercing bullets in this magazine. But Hongzi's shield might not be able to last that long.
"Stop, stop!" Hongzi was obviously panicking. Even though she was as noble as a witch, she was afraid of the man in front of her who was smiling but exuding a faint chill. After all, she had been suppressed by the man in front of her since the beginning. Even the puppet she had just been dealing with for a long time was blown up by the man in front of her. Such strength was already overwhelming.
"What?" I stopped, but the sniper rifle in my hand never moved even a little bit.
"I..." Hongzi was at a loss for words. The panic at that moment humiliated Hongzi's pride. But in the current situation, Hongzi could no longer be proud. After all, she was just a 17-year-old girl. Her pride was only based on her absolute confidence and strength. She was just proud, but not stupid.
"Remove your magic shield. If I really want to kill you, it will be useless even if you put up several layers of shields." I knocked on Hongzi's magic shield with the muzzle of the gun.
After a few seconds of hesitation, Hongzi waved his hand, and the light of the necklace on his chest disappeared instantly. The next second, a huge fist shadow fell in Hongzi's eyes, scaring Hongzi so much that he subconsciously closed his eyes. Then he felt a gust of wind blowing on his face, and even his long red hair beside his ears fluttered. However, the pain he should have felt did not keep up with the pace of the fist wind.
"Hmm... Not bad, you're very good. Wouldn't it be better if you did this earlier?" I took back my fist from Hongzi and smiled at her, "Let's go somewhere else. Some things are better for us to talk about alone." I turned around and looked at Kaito under the basketball hoop in the distance. Calculating the time, he will soon wake up. In my current state, it's better to keep it a secret from him for the time being.
"Eh? Well... I, I understand." Hongzi was a little confused, then nodded and walked towards the teaching building not far away. Since she has been suppressed, she should prioritize saving her life. With the current means, even if she wants to escape, she will inevitably suffer great damage, and she may not be able to escape.
————The scent of orchids, the scent of lavender, the scent of home & the wings of angels, the wings of demons, the wings of guardians————
"So... tell me, what's going on with this blue smoke?" Arriving at the teaching building, I took the staff from Hongzi's hand, and at the same time grabbed her in front of me and took the necklace from her chest, but she was completely confused and didn't notice it at all. It wasn't until the necklace fell into my hand that she looked down and found that the necklace that had just saved her life was gone.
"The blue smoke is the result of the fruit of the Tanabella flower soaking in the Fog Spring." Having lost her staff and shield necklace, Hongzi twisted her hands hesitantly in front of her, like a little girl who had made a mistake. "The Tanabella flower is a precious plant in the demon world. It can only produce three fruits every ten thousand years, and the output of the entire demon world will not exceed one hundred in ten thousand years. It is one of the main scarce resources in the demon world that is fought over."
"Let's get to the point. Why did I recover like this? You should know that I should never appear in this world in my current state." I stared at Hongzi. If she lied at all, I would make her get the punishment that she absolutely did not want to accept.
"Yes." Hongzi nodded. "I used divination to see your life experience in the crystal ball, but it was only vague. After all, divination can't see the real side."
Looking into Hongzi's eyes, I could not tell that she was lying. I nodded slightly and asked her to continue.
"About that blue mist, it's a drop of spring water from the Hidden Mist Spring that was soaked in the fruit, diluted and put into a reagent bottle. It can make living things regress to the state of about 20 to 30 years ago, and the limit is the state of a human baby at birth." Hongzi explained, and it seems that what she said about cells was just nonsense. "Although I know that you have an incarnation of your past life, I never thought that the Tana Bella Flower can really pull your past life from another world. After all, in the demon world, these are used to restore the lifespan of those ancient gods and demons."
"Oh?" My thoughts raced. The effect of this potion is to go back to about 4869 to years ago, why did it turn me into what I am now? Could it be that this effect does not act on the body itself, but on time and space? If it is not on the body, but on the time and space of the organism itself, then it seems that Hongzi wants to use this potion to regress me to my infancy. In this way, her puppet Xun can control me, but Hongzi doesn't know that I have eaten APTX, and she doesn't know that the real effect of this fruit is to regress time and space. So Hongzi miscalculated the amount of the potion attack this time. My Mingya age is seven years, and Bing's age is seventeen years. The total amount of time before and after regressing to the appearance of Liufeng in my previous life is exactly the amount of the potion's full effect. This seems to be a relatively reasonable explanation for my return to Liufeng. But... What the hell is this demon world? This is too awesome, traveling through dimensions.
"This thing only targets living things?"
"Yes."
"Will it last forever?"
"This smoke will probably only last one to two hours."
"Hmm..." I looked at Hongzi's face. Her red eyes were full of fear and nervousness, and she didn't seem to be lying at all. "Can you adjust the retreat time and the maintenance time?"
"Hmm..." Hongzi thought for a moment. "Okay." "Tell me the truth." I narrowed my eyes slightly, and a slight chill slowly eroded from my body to Hongzi.
"It's possible, but it can't be in the form of smoke." Hongzi stepped back subconsciously. "The effect of the fruit can be prolonged by increasing the dosage, but the time limit for maintaining the state... If you want to maintain it permanently, you can only eat the fruit. However, with the human physique, eating the fruit directly will kill you. Humans are different from the creatures of the demon world. They can't withstand the magic of the Tanabella flower at all."
The fact that she could say this proved that Hongzi really did not dare to lie, otherwise, if she had just told me to eat it, she would have been done with it once and for all.
"You should have a solution, right? If I can only go back ten years or twenty-five years, and maintain it for one hour, three to five days."
"this..."
"Just tell me. Yes or no."
"Yes. However, this fruit still has side effects on humans." Hongzi hesitated for a moment, but still said it.
"You mean the effect of magic or something on normal humans?"
"Yes. The magic of the Tanabella flower remains in the human body. If it lasts for a long time, resistance will develop. It will accelerate human aging."
"As expected, the opposite effect? But, you are a magician, so you should be able to eliminate this side effect, right?"
"No, no!" Hongzi's face suddenly turned red.
"Oh?" I raised my eyebrows. Seeing Hongzi's sudden panic, I had a conclusion in my mind. There should be a way, but I might need the help of the magician in front of me. "Hehe, let me guess?"
With a hint of amusement, I began to do a cold reading of Hongzi.
"What is it that makes Miss Hongzi so embarrassed to talk about? The cost of life? No, physical damage? Mental trauma? Or... emotions? Hmm? Emotions... Do you need to replenish your magic like in a certain anime? Hmm? No? Do you need to absorb it from the body? Or? A kiss? Eh? It really is a kiss."
"Enough! Stop talking!" Hongzi subconsciously summoned a lightning bolt, which struck my head, but I blocked it with Hongzi's staff. This staff seemed to be able to absorb such magical damage. I was not injured by the lightning bolt.
"Tsk, that's interesting." I clicked my tongue. I wasn't angry at Hongzi's behavior. Instead, I started to adjust it. "Ms. Hongzi, can you help me get rid of the side effects this time?"
"You!" Hongzi's face flushed.
"Think about it, what's so good about Kaito? He doesn't like you anyway. How about... you be my girlfriend?" As I spoke, I began to slowly approach Hongzi, and Hongzi subconsciously began to back away.
"You, don't come over here." Hongzi couldn't resist or run away at this moment. She could only retreat step by step like a frightened lamb. Finally, she was forced to lean against the wall and couldn't retreat even half a step. The frivolous man in front of her was already approaching her step by step. Finally, the man's hand slammed hard on the wall next to her pretty head, giving her the most frightening wall-dong ever. And the man's face was already approaching her less than ten centimeters away.
"Miss Hongzi, this should be your first kiss, right?" I smiled and gradually approached Hongzi. "I will accept it without hesitation."
"You...don't!" Hongzi tried to dodge backwards, but it was useless. Seeing that pair of lips full of tenderness were about to touch her, Hongzi could only close her eyes and wait for the devil's attack.
One second... Two seconds... Three seconds... Her lips were not violated, but an unscrupulous voice finally rang in her ears.
"Hey... I was kidding~"
