When Melissa crawled out of the ruins, all she could see were the huge petals cutting into the battlefield. They were rising up from the ground in a corner of the Butcher's Pit like ancient ritual stone formations.
"I...I'm actually still alive."
After a brief daze, Melissa touched herself all over. Except for some scratches, she was fine.
A few minutes ago, Melissa was still telling others about the teachings of the Blazing Sun in the cell. As a result, a sudden earthquake hit, and the falling bricks buried many people. However, Melissa actually relied on her thin body and long years to survive.
The experience of living in the ruins helped me survive this desperate situation.
She looked around and saw that the tops of the petals were covered with broken corpses. In a position that she couldn't see, there were constant roars and violent tremors, as if two gods were fighting here, invisible.
The shock wave spread like ripples.
After Melissa stabilized her body, she took out the tattered book from her pocket and stared at the crooked handwriting. An inexplicable feeling of joy rose in her heart.
Obviously, Melissa was saved. Not only did she escape from the cell alive, but the blood tax collectors and bloodthirsty people outside were also buried under the layers of huge petals.
In Melissa's deformed world view, she naturally attributed all her current luck to the book in her hand and her belief in the blazing sun.
Carefully holding the book to her chest, Melissa could feel bursts of warmth as if she were hallucinating.
But after breaking away from the ecstasy of faith, Melissa's eyes suddenly became confused.
Melissa is out of trouble, now what?
In this desperate place of eternal night, where should I go?
"help me……"
A hoarse voice sounded from under Melissa's feet. She lowered her head and could vaguely see a man caught in the gaps between the ruins.
Melissa squatted down, and with her thin body, she got in bit by bit, and the other person's appearance became clearer in the dimness.
She said in surprise, "Dewen!"
Not everyone is as lucky as Melissa. When the petals rose from the ground, Devin was unfortunately crushed by the collapsed wall, but fortunately, there were not many bricks and stones buried on his body.
After a while of laborious carrying, Melissa struggled to push several large pieces of bricks away, and now Devon's body finally had some room to move.
After another struggle, Devin crawled out of the ruins in embarrassment. Unlike Melissa, he had large scratches on his body, and sharp metal pierced his shoulder, soaked in blood.
A corner.
"Thank you so much, Melissa," Devin gasped, "I never thought I would be saved by you one day."
"No, I didn't save you."
Melissa shook her head devoutly, "It was the blazing sun. It was the blazing sun that made me survive and save you."
"Scorching sun?"
Devin frowned. As a blood tax collector, he naturally knew about this belief that was spread among the blood people. However, in his memory, Melissa had never been exposed to this thing, but in just one day, she had become
A devout believer in the burning sun.
"We have to get out of here."
Devin looked around. He was a disabled person from the hidden land. He naturally knew what was happening in the royal city at this time. The terrifying ether reactions were colliding with each other like a storm. The once terrifying bloodthirsty people were now
Under this power, he is just a docile puppy.
"It's not safe here, we have to find a shelter."
As Devin spoke, he took Melissa's hand and tried to take her away from this place. Melissa had always listened to Devin's words in the past, but this time she stood motionless on the ruins.
"What's wrong?"
Melissa did not reply, but looked behind the many petals.
Devin followed her gaze and saw countless thorns covering the ground in the distance, scarlet blood flowing like a stream. Suddenly, a rapidly rising tower protruded from the thorns, with a faint light of fire.
Soaring on the top of the tower.
Boluogo rose to the highest point of his own field, his sword and ax crossed his chest, the metals collided with each other, bursting out dazzling sparks, and then this weak flame completely ignited the light.
Using Borogo's ether as fuel, the light burned completely.
In an instant, a rolling ball of fire condensed behind Boluogo, and expanded rapidly under the increased output of the ether. Soon, the dazzling fire grew to a width of several meters.
The bright and scorching sun hangs high above the sky.
Melissa looked at this scene from a distance, standing stiffly on the spot like a sculpture.
She murmured, "Then...is that the blazing sun?"
Unlike those who are lucky enough to have seen the blazing sun, Melissa was born in this dark and humid place of eternal night. Since her birth, the so-called blazing sun, sun, day and other words are an illusion that is difficult to condense in her eyes.
.
Melissa couldn't imagine something she hadn't seen before. No matter how hard she tried to magnify the weak candlelight a thousand times in her mind, she still couldn't imitate the real sun, let alone imagine the sun shining on the earth.
scene.
But today, at this moment.
When the light gathered into a burning fireball and fell from the sky, Melissa's thoughts seemed to be freed from the shackles. She actually barely imagined the blazing sun from the dazzling light.
Melissa said with tears in her eyes, "Look, it's the messenger of the blazing sun, the angel holding the flaming sword!"
At this time, Devin was also stunned. He wanted to refute Melissa and tell her that this was not the blazing sun, but just the distortion of reality by the ether. But after realizing that this blazing sun seemed to be interacting with the Night Clan,
Behind enemy lines, a possibility that German would never dare to think about appeared in his mind.
Someone is coming, someone is coming to save them! Put an end to this bloody hell and let the warm sunshine return to the earth!
"I've always hated things like religion," Devin's eyes widened, "but this time, your faith seems to be working...the blazing sun really appears."
Melissa was shaking with excitement, "Right! Right!"
Devin nodded, then shook his head, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, but that's not the real sun. The real sun is hundreds of times bigger than this, enough to light up the whole world."
It was just a fire, a deadly fire.
A distant crackling sound came from afar, and the blazing fire created by Boluogo exploded in mid-air, and the sky filled with fire rain, mercilessly burning the flesh and blood stumps on the earth, and growing thorns.
The brilliant light warmed this cold world. The light hit Melissa's face, reflected in her eyes, and an uncontrollable smile bloomed on her face.
She stared intently and said, "No, Devin, this is the real blazing sun."
Continuous explosions sounded, and the light burned wantonly, turning the blood-soaked earth into a sea of fire. In the continuous fire, the monsters' figures collided with each other, carrying out the unfinished fight.
Finally, Melissa looked away and said in a firm voice, "It's just that my faith in the sun is not enough right now."
"That's right," Melissa was no longer confused, and an indescribable demonic nature appeared on her slightly childish face, "It's just that the soul sacrificed to the blazing sun is not enough."
Devin took a few steps back instinctively, and his heart beat faster... Devin was frightened by Melissa, and frightened by this poor girl.
Those are eyes dominated by faith, paranoia, obsession, and madness.
"Listen carefully, Devin," Melissa made a gesture of listening. "Did you hear it? The painful moans under the ruins."
Devon asked, "What are you going to do?"
"What else can I do, of course, save them."
Melissa said as she pulled out an iron pipe from the ruins and used it as a tool to lift the stone, "Then...then tell them about the sacredness of the blazing sun."
Melissa didn't understand the old man's words before. He clearly said that he could realize her wish, but said that her soul was not enough. Now Melissa understood. She understood what the old man meant and her mission.
Melissa wants to save more people and let them devote themselves to the embrace of the blazing sun. She believes that piles of souls will make the blazing sun completely burn.
Devin stood there blankly, just watching Melissa's digging. Even though her hands were bloody, she still refused to stop.
He asked, "Is the blazing sun that important?"
Devin never understood why Melissa would fight so hard for an illusory sun.
"Of course," Melissa said without raising her head, "I am different from you, Devin, you are from outside. You have seen the so-called sea, cities, movies, novels, and even the sun.
A completely different life than mine, an extremely happy life.”
"Do you know how I feel every time I hear you talk about those things?"
Melissa's voice trembled, as if from pain or sadness.
"Do you think I will be very happy, happy that I know what the outside world has seen?
No, Devon, I'm so sad, so sad that even if I rack my brains at night, I can't imagine what the sea looks like or how the sea breeze feels. I don't know what dessert tastes like, and I don't understand you.
What is a favorite movie? Can a person really be sealed into time for the audience to watch?"
Melissa cursed and struck the hard stone repeatedly.
"I often ask myself, why do I have to suffer such a fate, why do I have to be born in this world, did I do something wrong? Why is it me! Why!"
She stopped and raised her head to look at Devin, and only then did Devin realize that tears had soaked Melissa's face.
"Do you know how jealous I am of you? Devin, you are also in hell, but you have seen the beauty of the world, while all I have is pain."
Melissa's body couldn't stop shaking as she revealed all the dark thoughts in her heart.
"I'm so jealous of you, Devin, that sometimes I want to kill you."
Melissa lowered her head and fell silent. The fierce explosions and fighting sounds in the distance continued, like a noisy background sound.
Putting her hand into the crack of the stone, Melissa moved again, struggling to move the stone away.
"I don't care about anything else, and I don't ask for anything. I just want to see the scorching sun. I want to stand upright under the daylight. This is my wish."
Melissa swore viciously, "If this will cost me my life, then go ahead and take it. If it means asking for my soul, I will gladly accept it."
"I will no longer live as an animal for some damn night tribe. I want to live for myself. I want the warm sunshine to shine all over my body!"
Devin stretched out his hand, as if to stop Melissa from digging. Melissa immediately turned around and threw away his arm, cautiously raised the twisted iron pipe and pointed the tip at Devin.
"Don't stop me, I will really kill you."
Melissa looked at Devin with tears in her eyes and cursed, "Devin, it's all your fault! Ever since you told me about the beauty of the world, I can no longer live in a hazy state."
If given the chance to come back again, Melissa would rather not meet Devin again. Living blindly in this hell is actually a kind of happiness.
Devin did not respond, but pushed aside the iron pipe, came to Melissa's side, bent down, and easily moved away the stone that was extremely heavy for Melissa.
Stones were removed one after another, and the gaps in the ruins became larger and larger. When the building collapsed, an oblique space was created. Many blood people crowded here and fortunately survived.
They scrambled to poke their heads out and looked at the two men who were digging rocks. The sea of fire was burning in the distance, and the sky was reflected in a dark red, as if the sun was about to rise from the end of the ground line.
