Chapter 394: [Memory] is never absent
【Memory】 is never absent...
The child didn't die.
Not only didn't it die, but it even found its "nanny" in the rubble flow.
I don't know if it was the traction of the symbiotic strap, or 【Fate】 secretly exerted force, in short, this baby who shared vitality with Cheng Shi fell together with Cheng Shi and was pressed to the bottom of the ruins.
The moment Cheng Shi saw this baby boy, his pupils shrank, and he couldn't care about the pain all over his body. Like a cat with its fur blown up, he instinctively gave it a 【Thunder Judgment】.
Then...
With a "boom," he was scorched himself.
"..."
The baby fell into his arms, scorched all over. As soon as it touched him, it raised a pair of bright and charming eyes and looked at him with a smile.
Can you imagine how terrifying this scene is?
In the ruins buried deep underground, in an extremely cramped space without any light, a freak that could suck dry the vitality of a Chosen was lying on your chest, scorched all over, only a fist away from your face. It was grinning and smiling, and staring at you without blinking with a pair of eyes emitting faint purple light...
"..."
Cheng Shi's brain went blank the moment he met those eyes.
But his reason remained. He suppressed the fear in his heart and calculated the time. When he learned that there were at least a few minutes before the trial ended, he... couldn't hold it anymore.
No, this child is too dangerous. Since the life that shouldn't have been born has already been born, then it shouldn't be off-topic for it to die after being born, right?
Once this thought arose, Cheng Shi thought it was more and more correct. The whole process lasted about a second before he made his decision. He curled his fingers at the child in his arms and used...
The gambling tool that is never lost!
He ran!
He didn't dare to bet whether the trial would fail if he killed the child with the symbiotic strap. It was already the last few minutes, so he couldn't sabotage himself, so he ran, transferring to the ground through the dice.
And the die on the ground was exactly the one he stuffed into Scorpio's arms when he "persuaded" Scorpio to quit.
When Scorpio saw his Brother Cheng appear in front of him scorched all over, not only was there no joy of meeting after the disaster, but he took out the Arc of Time in horror and slashed at Cheng Shi for the first time.
Cheng Shi's gaze condensed, his heart tightened. Just as he wanted to dodge sideways, he found that there was a baby hanging in his arms who was also scorched!
Tulading's child actually transferred to the ground with him through the gambling tool that is never lost!
Broken, being clung to!
This scene made Cheng Shi's heart sink infinitely. Scorpio slashed at the child's back but it was unharmed. Not only that, the power of 【Time】 on the Arc of Time had no effect on this child, and even made his smile three points more brilliant.
!!!
It is not afraid of 【Time】!
What on earth is it?
The Squinting One didn't say that this strap could share movement talent, but everything happening now was showing that he seemed to be connected to this child!
No, this strap cannot be kept.
Even if he lost the trial in the last second, he couldn't get anything unclean in this trial.
Cheng Shi saw Scorpio's moves were useless, gritted his teeth, pinched the symbiotic strap in his hand, and gave a death decree to the baby at the other end of the strap.
The life and death of the "slave" of the symbiotic strap are all in the mind of the caster, so when Cheng Shi decreed death, the baby should have died.
But he didn't!
Cheng Shi watched helplessly as the strap in his hand suddenly rotted, the baby's expression in his arms suddenly froze, then the smile faded, and his eyes began to turn cold. The whole person felt bad.
His back stiffened, and he took out the Stone of Final Grave from his space.
He prepared to use this power of 【Decay】 to corrupt this newborn life, directly pinching the danger in the bud while it could still be controlled.
But just as he was about to do it, Scorpio on the side suddenly rushed over with a serious face, took out a dagger, and stabbed it straight at the child in his arms.
"Brother Cheng, be careful!"
With a roar from the little assassin, Cheng Shi only saw the child hanging in his arms "whoosh" and disappeared...
He widened his eyes in shock, looked at Scorpio in disbelief, but saw Scorpio looking at the dagger gradually disappearing in his hand, his face full of pain.
This is actually...
The power of 【Memory】!?
???
No, you kid are messing with me at this time!?
Cheng Shi was afraid. It's no wonder he was afraid; he was really scared by 【Memory】.
Even if Scorpio was really helping him out of the siege, thinking that 【Memory】 had a hand in the end of the trial, Cheng Shi was numb all over.
"Brother, you'd better explain to me what this is... so I can be mentally prepared."
Scorpio seemed to see Cheng Shi's worry. He shook his head with a wry smile and said:
"Brother Cheng, don't panic first. This is not a prop used to change history, but a prop used to... trace history."
Cheng Shi's pupils shrank, and he instantly thought of a profession: Hunter of the Past, assassin of 【Memory】!
"That's right, this is a dagger of a Hunter of the Past. It won't change history, but just banishes the target I stabbed into the history of the past.
When the target is drowned in the giant waves of history, we will be safe!
So Brother Cheng, when you bluffed that I was a Hunter of the Past at the beginning, my reaction was so big.
Because I... really am."
???
Cheng Shi was stunned: "You are a Hunter of the Past?"
Impossible, the Master of Deception told me you are an assassin of another day!
Cheng Shi's gaze condensed, and there was a bit more seriousness in his eyes looking at Scorpio, and he asked uncertainly:
"You... broke your oath?"
Scorpio's face turned pale, he pursed his lips and nodded:
"... Yes, Brother Cheng, you guessed right. I am an oath-breaker. As for the reason...
It's all in the past, no need to say it."
Hiss—
This little assassin has something. How did you manage to have two faiths opposed to me and still be able to hug my thigh?
But don't think about these miscellaneous things first. There are still a bunch of troubles to be solved right now.
Even if this power of 【Memory】 is not used to remember history, Cheng Shi must figure out where Tulading's child was banished.
"Which history did you banish it to?"
"I can't control it, Brother Cheng. I am not a real Hunter of the Past. This is just a contingency I left for myself. I can't use it perfectly like before, only the basic functions of this dagger.
That child was randomly banished into the fragments of history. As for where, no one knows."
"..."
Cheng Shi nodded and didn't ask too much, but said "thank you" to Scorpio.
Regardless of where the child went, Scorpio did solve a big trouble for him at the moment.
He could feel that the connection between himself and the child seemed to have faded.
No, it should be said that it disappeared.
That's good. As long as he doesn't get involved with these weird things, the rest... leave it to time to solve.
Just hope there won't be any other accidents in these last few minutes.
And it was also at this moment that Zhang Jizu jumped onto the roof of a residential house from the other side.
Cheng Shi turned to look, and the two brothers in trouble looked at each other, both seeing the luck of surviving the disaster in each other's eyes.
Thanks to Old Zhang leaving a big hand, otherwise, he would have suffered a big loss just now.
But just as Zhang Jizu was about to approach his protection target, trying to ensure no accidents in the last time, he suddenly saw Cheng Shi frown, and then snapped his fingers and disappeared in front of the two again.
"..."
The Squinting One's face turned black, his footsteps paused, he stood on the spot and sighed, thinking that this liar who doesn't worry people, what is he doing again?
Cheng Shi didn't want to take risks at the end of the trial, but he always felt that Berios's anger was too abnormal. Even if Gelis wasn't treated today, it shouldn't have made him sacrifice Gelis again to destroy them.
You know, Gelis's state is not good. Every time the church invites the so-called "God's Descent," it will cause a certain degree of damage to Gelis.
So he was very curious about what happened in the church, so he snapped his fingers and used the dice to return to the church.
He wanted to sneak into the underground lake to see what happened there, but before he could mix into the chaotic inner hall of the church, he saw the only chief left in the church mixing out of the inner hall with a nervous expression.
Cheng Shi's gaze condensed, thinking could the change just now be related to him?
He immediately frowned and followed, but before he walked a few steps, his vision fell into endless darkness.
