Chapter 111 Sacrifice? No, Knight! (Part 2) 3k
“Gulp—”
The strange Siren seemed to understand the Kewan’s words, and she let out a low warning hum.
But that was all.
Her beautiful little face was directly facing out of the glass. She knew that with her numb body, she couldn’t change reality in any way.
Opposite her gaze was the mutated Siren that Su Jiu had seen before. Dozens of little mutated Sirens looked at her, like subjects looking at a princess being executed, letting out low mournful sounds.
“Damn it, a bunch of neither human nor ghost things. I’ll have my way with her in front of you later, and you’ll still be calling out!”
The Kewan’s face showed an angry expression. He quickly went to pat the glass to drive them away, only to find that the Sirens didn’t react at all, still repeating their previous actions.
And the little bats swirled above his head, making faint flapping sounds.
“Just keep calling! If it weren’t for that shrew Yoshiko wanting to contract you, I would have done you long ago.”
He chuckled, no longer tapping the glass window. His eyes greedily stared at the numb little face. He slowly walked over, casually took off his white coat, loosened his tie with one hand, and said with a smile:
“Mermaid, who would have thought! A mid-to-low-tier race like the Siren could become so beautiful… I haven’t tried a demon yet.”
Hearing this, the Siren withdrew her gaze, closed her tired eyes, and let her body be supported by the chains. The exhaustion and despair made her not even have the courage to open the light blue shackles again.
The sound of footsteps from the other party’s leather shoes was like a countdown. She could already imagine the disgusting feeling of a hand touching her body, but…
What could she do?
She could only accept the invasion of this white devil.
“Urk!” At this moment, a strange sound came from the front, like a duck whose neck was being strangled.
She kept her eyes closed, feeling a shadow block her vision. That disgusting salty dampness did not come, and she slowly opened her eyes. What greeted her was the back of someone wearing a black Gothic dress, and a ponytail that reached her waist.
“Who is she?”
Looking at the scene in front of her, her mouth slightly opened. The Kewan, who had been smug just now, was being held up like a stray dog.
His eyes looked at the figure in front of him in terror, and he kept begging for mercy from his mouth—
“Lord Blood Clan, I… I didn’t… mean to… You can’t kill me.”
“Crack!”
“Shush, you can die now.”
Without asking any more questions, Su Jiu squeezed hard. The crisp sound of bones breaking came from her palm. The Kewan’s limbs hung limply.
Casually throwing the corpse aside, Su Jiu picked up her phone and checked it. She found that the signal in the upper right corner was gone, and Youyou’s message was still the one from before she arrived—sending reinforcements.
The evidence obtained was now sufficient. The two documents were with her. As long as the other Night Watchers arrived, the mission could be completed.
However, there was one point—what was the situation with the “good 鸸〺澪【〜⑧(五)邻疚〔⑶liuIX group” mentioned by the little Siren.
“This should be ‘her’ in the document, right?”
Su Jiu turned around, her gaze meeting the hollow eyes. Seeing that the other party was in a human-like form, she tried to ask, “Are you related to those Siren attacks?”
“Clang clang—”
Seeing Su Jiu’s vampire attire, the other party’s face showed a faint displeasure. However, with the sound of rubbing chains, it quickly subsided, and she could only lower her head in resignation.
“Are you a Siren? Were the Sirens trying to save you?”
“I’ll get you out now. Answer my questions first.”
…
After that, no matter how Su Jiu asked, the other party kept her head down, like wood, with a dull gaze staring at the water surface.
“Let’s get her out first!”
Looking at the chains, Su Jiu frowned and summoned E Huo. Before E Huo could sit down properly, she turned into a sharp blade. Holding a short sword, she used several “Drawing Sword Slash” on the chains and pipes.
“Clang!”
The crimson sword energy instantly cut through the chains. The other party’s body loosened and fell into the pool with a “plop.” After a minute, there was still no movement.
“These marine creatures seem to respect the Ice Dragon Transformation. Let’s try it.”
As if remembering something, a white light flashed past. Su Jiu used the Ice Dragon Transformation, creating a light blue energy shield around her body. She leaped into the pool. As soon as she entered, a pungent smell hit her nose.
The small figure was curled up in a corner, and the blood seeping from her tail kept rising. She looked somewhat pitiful.
Due to the water-affinity effect of the Ice Dragon Transformation, Su Jiu quickly reached the surface of the pool. She sighed slightly and didn’t approach her, but instead conjured a touch of emerald green with her right hand, wanting to heal her.
Like this, she could only heal her injuries first. It seemed like she had been tormented for a long time.
Leaves carrying Frost Blossom rose in the water like silver butterflies. The light of the silver leaves made Su Jiu’s back, refracted by the seawater, appear with a light feather, looking somewhat strange.
The Siren felt a cold sensation and found that her injuries had almost healed. She slowly raised her head and opened her eyes. The hollow pupils gradually gained a little color.
Amidst the gurgling of seawater in the pool, she seemed to see at this moment—the High Priest who saved the South Sea over a thousand years ago.
Although her face was blurry and her memory was vague, just like in the legends, the High Priest had a pair of small wings, a royal appearance, and human legs.
Suddenly, her nose smarted. She got up and wanted to approach Su Jiu, but froze when she looked at the light and shadow.
What met her eyes was the vampire she had just seen. And there were no wings behind her; it was just the Frost Leaves rising.
The glimmer of hope immediately extinguished. Her legs went soft, and she became like a puddle of mud, wanting to fall asleep again.
Without the High Priest, she couldn’t escape. It was better to give up all hope and submit to the embrace of the Sea God.
This broken body was not needed…
Seeing the other party’s action, Su Jiu cursed inwardly, “Idiot!” She reached out and grabbed her, pulling her hard out of the pool. Her voice was transmitted through the energy shield: “Get out of here, and tell those South Sea demons to stop attacking!”
“High Priest…”
Her wrist was grabbed by Su Jiu. From the perspective below, she felt a strange sensation. She seemed to have returned to the ancestral temple to worship the High Priest—
There was a sense of dependence, and sometimes, she truly wondered if the other party was human or Siren.
Now, everyone could no longer remember her appearance, only knowing that she had a pair of green wings. Facing tens of thousands of demonized humans injured by foreign races, she merely waved her sleeve, and with the frost spreading, they were miraculously healed!
…
“Discovered? Where are Youyou’s people?”
Naturally unaware of the other party’s thoughts, when Su Jiu brought her to the edge of the pool, she found that they were already surrounded. The two women in the lead were Viscount Andrew, whom she had seen at the front of the VIP area, and… the head of K’s China region.
The woman in the kimono tilted her head and looked at Su Jiu, her eyes narrowing slightly. She suddenly smiled and asked in somewhat broken Chinese, “Is it you? Su Jiu-kun, I remember you still have my things. If the Doctor hadn’t discovered that his subordinate was dead, you would have taken away these secrets, wouldn’t you?”
She was Yoshiko, the Suzuki Yoshiko mentioned by the Kewan, the head of the entire geisha house.
Su Jiu’s gaze swept over the samurai intercepting her. These were all straw bags. What made her truly feel danger was—
Her gaze kept moving further away, falling on the elder in the black armor behind the kimono-clad woman. His face was like that of the legendary Great Tengu, and he had a blade inserted on each side.
This was likely a High-Rank Battle General. With Su Jiu’s strength, unless she used a surprise attack to cut his throat, she had no chance of winning.
“Su Jiu-kun looks so much like that Siren. You’ve seen the files on my desk, right?”
“There’s an old saying in Dragon Country—a wise man knows when to adapt! You don’t want to be a blood slave like her, do you?”
Su Jiu looked at Viscount Andrew on the other side. His gaze met hers with equal coldness, clearly not wanting to let her go. The Corpse Demons with red eyes behind him were already impatient.
Then, she smiled faintly and asked, “How can you two let me go?”
“Sub-Dragon Flame Crystal, hand over all the materials,” Suzuki Yoshiko smiled, then pointed behind Su Jiu at the Siren tightly holding her arm and said, “And then, she stays.”
“The Dragon Crystal is not with me—what will you do to her?”
Feeling the arm being held tighter and tighter, Su Jiu asked expressionlessly, while inwardly cursing:
Damn it, I’m cornered like this, and no one’s coming! This mermaid must not be handed over to them! This might be the reason for the Siren riot.
“Why ask so many questions? Even if she’s experimented on every day, she won’t die, right? Just a demon,” Suzuki Yoshiko replied nonchalantly. “Now, take people to get the Flame Crystal. A stinking Exorcist trying to play hero, recognize your situation.”
As soon as the other party spoke, Su Jiu was about to say something when she felt her arm loosen. A hoarse voice, as if rubbed with sand, sounded by her ear.
“Thank you, you… Sa, High Priest, let’s go.”
She turned around and saw that the Siren’s body was slowly sinking again, as if resigned.
“Big brother, I want to go too! If you disappear, I’ve come for nothing!”
Then Su Jiu scanned everyone, took a deep breath, grabbed her wrist, looked at the glass outside, and leaped out of the water. With Frost Blossom appearing on her right hand, she broke through towards a place similar to the black-clothed elder.
Before these people could react, as long as she reached the sea, she would be safe!
The material of these glasses did not seem to be made of high-grade crystals. They could block those demons purely because they lacked the destructive power of a Battle General.
“Where can you run? Outside is the sea, and there are our patrol boats.”
Suzuki Yoshiko’s eyelids twitched. She lightly waved her hand, signaling the people behind her to step forward, and sneered dismissively.
“Tch tch tch!”
Pulling the Mermaid Siren with her left hand, Su Jiu sent two sword energies towards the crowd with her right hand, and another towards the glass to break it!
The mermaid behind her looked up at her, her eyes full of disbelief. First a vampire, then a High Priest, and now this fighting strength. Who was she?
Had the High Priest appeared?
Watching Su Jiu decapitate a Corpse Demon and continue to charge forward, her clothes fluttering, even though she looked younger than herself, the confidence on her face was very much like that in the storybooks…
High Priest? No, she was a Knight!
The other party saved her simply because she also had something to protect.
