Chapter 476: Little Pastor, You
Little Pastor, You've Changed
But the battle situation changes rapidly, and no one can predict the subsequent development.
Just as that silent arrow was about to pierce Cheng Shi's legs, Poison on the side moved first.
She suddenly got up from the state of lying on her stomach, and a flying pounce blocked in front of Cheng Shi's legs, using her body to block that explosive arrow.
The flying arrow shot through Poison's right shoulder, penetrated her spine, and pierced out from her left rear shoulder blade, like a shoulder bone shackle directly nailing this 【Filthy Fall】 God-Chosen to the ground beside Cheng Shi's feet.
This was not the most fatal; the most fatal was that this was an arrow of 【Silence】, full of the blessing of 【Silence】, making the injured Poison instantly lose the ability to resist, emitting a painful moan.
"Ah, it hurts."
She turned her head to look at Cheng Shi, a trace of uncontrollable pain flashing in her eyes, but she endured it and teased with a pale face:
"How come your reaction is still so slow, little pastor."
Seeing this scene, Cheng Shi's pupils shrank!
He wasn't grateful for Poison's saving him with her body, but lamented that he was too careless; he had guarded against everything but still fell for her trick!
This 【Filthy Fall】 assassin was always so good at making people have desires.
Protective desire and guilt certainly count as desires!
However... what kind of relationship could make a woman block an arrow for a man at the cost of her life?
If this scene were placed on anyone else, it would probably be deeply dug into by gossip-mongers, but if someone clarified that the woman in this matter was Poison, then everyone's reaction would probably be:
Oh, Poison, that's normal. What, does she have a new prey again?
From this, it can be seen that this 【Filthy Fall】 God-Chosen's reputation among peak players... can't be called good or bad, it can only be said to be very strange.
It stands out for being hard to please everyone.
Those who like her like her to death, and those who hate her hate her to the bone.
And this 【Filthy Fall】 assassin wasn't annoying like other 【Filthy Fall】 followers. She never deliberately hooked others' desires, and even less encouraged others to indulge their emotions. She would only find the most ingenious moment to appear where you needed her most, and then make you willingly "pay" your desires.
Just like right now.
She had met Cheng Shi, knew Cheng Shi, and even had a slight understanding of Cheng Shi, so she knew that this pastor wasn't a normal player. He never trusted anyone, but he wouldn't become cold-blooded because of a lack of trust in people, at least when there was a way out, this pastor wasn't cold-blooded.
So she chose to reverse her identity, changing from someone who needed to be protected to someone who protected others, flying to save Cheng Shi.
Although this attack wasn't fatal to Cheng Shi, in the moment Poison was pierced by the arrow and nailed to the ground, a desire to save someone did rise in his heart.
Even if this desire dissipated instantly after realizing the other party was Poison, it couldn't be denied that she could always provoke the softest string in a person's heart.
Cheng Shi's gaze sank deeper. He realized that this 【Filthy Fall】 God-Chosen seemed to have become stronger again.
And when Poison saw the flash of hesitation in Cheng Shi's eyes, she knew she was saved.
So she smiled. Although her face was pale, she smiled brilliantly. This smile almost made the square, which didn't have many colors, lose its color, and it was like a lotus flower blooming in the wild wind and snow, beautiful and breathtaking.
But this smile only lasted for a second before it froze on her face, because Cheng Shi, who had a trace of reluctance in his eyes just now, actually...
Jumped away in front of her.
The other party was like a clown who realized it too late, jumping in horror after seeing the arrow stuck in front of him.
This ridiculous scene was performed realistically, almost making it impossible for others to find any flaws. But Poison knew this wasn't the real Cheng Shi. He just used this set of slightly awkward actions to cover up his true heart, and by this, distanced himself from her, expressing his refusal to wade into this muddy water with practical actions.
"......"
At that moment, Poison didn't say a word, nor did she use any pitiful eyes to look at Cheng Shi for help, just closed her eyes and waited for death with pale lips.
She seemed disappointed, and desperate.
That miserable appearance made Da Yi, who was fighting in front, frown. He really didn't want Poison to fold here before getting the news he wanted.
On the contrary, Cheng Shi, at this moment, was like a cold-blooded animal with a heart of iron and stone. He looked panicked on the surface, but a trace of playfulness flashed in his eyes. He just watched Poison perform without moving, completely without the idea of reaching out to save her.
He didn't know what kind of abacus this woman was playing again, but he knew that the chameleon in the distance definitely couldn't kill her. Otherwise, she wouldn't be able to become a 【Filthy Fall】 God-Chosen!
Sure enough, just when the 【Silence】 follower was overjoyed at Cheng Shi's non-intervention, an accident happened again.
Just then, the spectator who had been watching the battle suddenly flung the sundial needle in his hand toward the Chameleon, blocking his attack. He then leaped high in front of Poison, agilely drew the sundial needle, and swept it across. In the split second of the Chameleon's astonishment, he drove him back, then held the sundial needle vertically before his chest like a sword and said:
"I'm suddenly interested in the news you mentioned. I think Poison-miss shouldn't mind sharing the secret in your mouth with one more person, right?"
He turned half his head to look at Poison, bowed half a bow gracefully, and then turned to look at the direction where the chameleon disappeared:
"Introduce myself, Jiang Chi.
If your Excellency is just a helper of the Screaming Earl, I suggest you wait a while before making a move. After all, with Poison-miss's talent, her peer might not necessarily become her skirt-under-minister, what do you think?"
Jiang Chi's voice was not loud, but everyone in the howling wind and snow in the square could hear it clearly.
Poison curled her mouth and sneered, not commenting on this "bad review," and the chameleon who disappeared again didn't respond. Seeing no one paying attention, Jiang Chi laughed at himself and said again:
"Of course, if your Excellency is interested in warming up in this cold weather, with this gnomon in hand, I can accompany you a little."
Hearing this, Cheng Shi raised his eyebrows, thinking, "As expected."
This Jiang Chi was indeed a Pointer Knight!
Pointer Knight, the opposite of 【Fate】, a warrior of 【Time】, a true timing hero who is very good at seizing timing gaps.
Cheng Shi had actually guessed the other party's identity for a long time. When the other party broke the gnomon, he felt that this person's faith was 80% related to 【Time】, and this was also the reason he chose to approach Da Yi instead of staying in place to be a gossip-monger with the other party.
In this trial that broke out in fierce conflict at the very beginning, he must first stay away from the unstable factors around him, and wait until the situation stabilizes before discussing whether the opposition of faith affects team cooperation.
But at least from the current point of view, this Pointer Knight named Jiang Chi seemed to have chosen to stand in the same camp as Da Yi and himself.
Of course, this camp refers to the camp that wants to hear the secret of the 【Gift of Scars】, not any camp that saves Poison.
Seeing someone save her again, Poison opened her eyes slightly and smiled again.
But she didn't pay attention to Jiang Chi, instead turning her head to look at Cheng Shi with complex eyes, quite disappointed: "Little pastor, you've changed."
Cheng Shi sneered, turning a deaf ear.
"You've become so hard."
"???"
"Heart is so hard."
