Eat Little Almonds
Chapter 573 Love at First Sight
"Achoo!"
As soon as he entered the dungeon, Qiao Yu couldn't help but let out a huge sneeze.
"Damn it, who's spreading rumors and slandering me behind my back again? You bastard, don't let me catch you! If I do, you won't get off easy!"
After cursing, Qiao Yu raised his head and began to observe the planet named Lichen.
This was a planet with highly developed technology, full of skyscrapers and closely packed buildings everywhere.
However, this planet was clearly in the midst of war.
Apart from the battlefield where the Black Queen and other Saint-tier experts were, battles were also taking place in other parts of the planet.
The human race had been oppressed by the mechanical race for too long. Given the opportunity to resist, they rose up one after another and fought fiercely against the mechanical race.
Battles naturally have wins and losses.
At this time, on the rooftop of a building, a sweet-looking girl and a boy were facing a mechanical warrior alone.
The mechanical warrior was only King-tier, but it was still too powerful for these two High-tier young people.
"Humans... No mercy!"
The mechanical warrior approached the young man and woman. When the humans on Lichen started the war, all the mechanical warriors received the order to show no mercy to humans.
"Brother Ziming, what should we do! Why don't we surrender? We can't beat this robot." The girl's sweet face was full of horror as she hugged the boy's arm and asked.
"Don't worry, Xiaoxiao, I, Xu Ziming, will definitely protect you!"
Xu Ziming held a large saber, his eyes fixed on the mechanical warrior. Although his strength was a whole level lower, there was no panic on his face, and there was even a hint of excitement.
Xiaoxiao was his goddess, the one he had fallen in love with at first sight and had been pursuing for three whole years without success. In these three years, it was the first time Xiaoxiao had physical contact with him. Even if it was just an arm, Xu Ziming was very satisfied.
Three years! A whole three years!
He had finally waited for a chance to perform in front of his goddess!
As long as he performed well and saved the girl from danger, wouldn't it be easy to win her heart?
The power of love is great and blind. It directly blinded Xu Ziming, making him forget that he was only a High-tier, while the mechanical warrior in front of him was a King-tier.
The mechanical warrior raised its arm to attack Xiaoxiao. Xiaoxiao had no practical combat experience and was so frightened that she curled up into a ball, shouting.
"Ahhh! Help!"
"Dawei Tianlong Jifeng Zhan (Great Mighty Heavenly Dragon Whirlwind Slash)!"
Seeing this, Xu Ziming raised his saber and jumped high, turning the saber into a whirlwind and slashing at the mechanical warrior.
The mechanical warrior's attention was drawn to Xu Ziming. Its hand, which was originally preparing to attack Xiaoxiao, blocked Xu Ziming's attack.
"Clang!"
The saber struck the mechanical arm, creating a series of sparks, but it couldn't break through the mechanical arm's defense at all.
"So hard!"
Xu Ziming was shocked, but for Xiaoxiao, he couldn't retreat!
With a slight movement of his feet, he reversed the direction of the long saber in his hand and slashed at the mechanical warrior again.
However, a King-tier was a King-tier after all. The mechanical warrior easily caught Xu Ziming's attack, and then its other hand transformed into a black cannon barrel.
With a bang, a red shell hit Xu Ziming, sending him flying backwards and creating a long gully on the rooftop.
Xu Ziming, like an unkillable cockroach, immediately propped himself up with his saber and stood in front of Xiaoxiao again.
"Xiaoxiao, I'm no match for him, I'll hold him back for you, you run!!!"
Xu Ziming roared hysterically, with a determined look in his eyes.
At this moment, he felt like the male protagonist in a passionate manga, fearlessly throwing himself into battle against a stronger enemy for the sake of the heroine.
However, he might be the male lead, but Xiaoxiao was clearly not his heroine.
Just when Xu Ziming thought that Xiaoxiao would start a series of dramatic scenes like in the TV series, "No, we'll go together, I won't leave you behind!"
Xiaoxiao stood up very simply.
"Okay! But I can't run fast enough, Brother Ziming, you must hold him back for a while!"
After saying that, Xiaoxiao ran away without looking back.
Xu Ziming's heart trembled, and then a bitter smile appeared on his face.
Three years of timidly avoiding eye contact; three years of humble pursuit; yellowed diaries, fragments of memories; the will to die for her.
So all of this, was only he himself moved?
Perhaps what he liked was just Xiaoxiao in his imagination, not the real Xiaoxiao.
Looking at Xiaoxiao's fleeing back, Xu Ziming suddenly felt something shatter in his heart.
"Forget it, after all, liking her is just my business. I can't force her to do anything for me. It seems pretty good to die for the person you love."
Xu Ziming's eyes became firm, staring at the King-tier mechanical warrior.
Just as Xu Ziming was about to go completely crazy and fight desperately with the King-tier warrior, a familiar sweet voice with a sob sounded behind him.
"Brother Ziming..."
Xu Ziming's eyes lit up instantly!
Although he didn't want Xiaoxiao to come back, the moment Xiaoxiao returned, he felt that his heart was wrapped in happiness.
She still has me in her heart! She can't bear to see me die!
A huge sense of excitement overwhelmed Xu Ziming. At this moment, he was willing to die for Xiaoxiao!
Therefore, he immediately put on a straight face and turned around to shout.
"What are you doing back here? Run! Don't worry about me! It's better for one person to escape than for two to die together! Don't worry about me! As long as you can remember me, my death, Xu Ziming's death, will be meaningful!"
Xu Ziming held his saber horizontally in front of his chest. At this moment, he remembered a sentence he had read that made his blood boil.
If darkness descends, I will stand before ten thousand people, with my saber against the abyss, staining the sky with blood.
Xu Ziming didn't have such lofty ideals. He just wanted to protect the person he loved, even if it meant sacrificing his life!
"No, Brother Ziming, you misunderstood. It's not that I wanted to come back, but there's another one behind..." Xiaoxiao's face was full of fear and bitterness.
Xu Ziming looked back along her gaze and saw another King-tier mechanical warrior behind them.
Xu Ziming: "..."
He thought it was because Xiaoxiao couldn't bear to see him die, but it turned out there was danger behind them too?
As expected, he was just moving himself, Xu Ziming showed a bitter smile.
Two mechanical warriors, one in front and one behind, formed a pincer attack. Xu Ziming and Xiaoxiao were now trapped.
"Xiaoxiao, it seems we're going to die together, but don't worry, I'll definitely die before you."
Xu Ziming roared, and the saber light directly enveloped the two mechanical warriors.
However, he was struggling to deal with one, let alone two?
In just one exchange, Xu Ziming was seriously injured and fell to the ground, his large saber broken in two.
"Pfft!" Xu Ziming spat out a mouthful of blood and weakly shouted, "Xiaoxiao, run..."
But at this moment, the goddess Xiaoxiao in his eyes suddenly knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the two mechanical warriors.
"Please, please don't kill me, I'm innocent! And I know, you robots also have needs in that area, right?"
"I'm very good at it! I know all the moves, please don't kill me, I can serve you, I'm very experienced, I really know everything, the two of you can come together, no, even more people can come together, please don't kill me!"
Faced with the shadow of death, Xiaoxiao's face was covered in tears as she kept begging the two mechanical warriors.
And Xu Ziming was stunned at this moment, looking at Xiaoxiao's humble appearance, he was a little at a loss. Is this the person he has liked for three years?
"Xiaoxiao! Don't beg them! They won't let you go, run!"
Xu Ziming still had a glimmer of hope for Xiaoxiao, but Xiaoxiao's next actions shattered his last hope.
"Shut up!"
Xiaoxiao's face was ferocious, no longer with the sweet look she had just had, but instead resembling a vengeful ghost.
"You useless trash, shut up! You're so useless, why didn't you die sooner? I only gave you a good look because I thought you were a little useful, do you really think I, Xiaoxiao, would like a piece of trash like you?"
After scolding Xu Ziming, Xiaoxiao immediately put on a flattering face, even pulling down her clothes a little, and begged the two mechanical warriors.
Xu Ziming was silent.
Xiaoxiao's words were like sharp spears, piercing his heart with holes.
Xu Ziming suddenly laughed, followed by a series of loud laughter. As he laughed, tears welled up in his eyes.
He finally understood a truth: when you like someone, it's better to watch from afar. If you see too clearly, you'll be disappointed.
The two mechanical warriors had no expression on their faces and continued to walk towards the two of them.
Then they raised their black cannons and were about to finish off Xu Ziming and Xiaoxiao. A dangerous red light gathered in the cannons.
This energy cannon would definitely turn Xu Ziming and Xiaoxiao into ashes.
With a whoosh, the energy cannon fired.
Faced with death, Xiaoxiao let out a terrified scream, and then a foul-smelling light yellow liquid flowed from under her skirt.
But Xu Ziming showed a relieved smile. Perhaps death was a relief for him. If there was an afterlife, he would never be so stupid again, seeking death for a woman, Xu Ziming slowly closed his eyes.
However, the pain of death he imagined did not come.
He and Xiaoxiao opened their eyes at the same time and saw a skeleton in armor standing in front of them.
The energy cannon just now was blocked by this skeleton.
The two pupils shrank, did not understand what happened, how could a skeleton suddenly appear in this place?
The two mechanical warriors are also a crooked head, did not understand the situation.
Because their compound eyes simply can't analyze what this is, how can the skeleton move?
The next second, this skeleton gave them the answer.
I saw the skeleton general waving his long sword, just a sword, will be two King rank mechanical warriors directly kill!
The stinking oil flowed all over the ground, and the circuit boards sizzled with sparks.
Seeing this scene, Xiaoxiao's beautiful eyes instantly had a light again.
"It is the strong people of our human race, must be the strong people of our human race shot to save us!"
Wandering between life and death, Xiaoxiao has strengthened her determination.
She is still considered to have some beauty, as long as she clings to this strong person, even if she is used as a tool for venting desires, at least the safety of life can be guaranteed, Xiaoxiao is very confident in her skills on the bed.
Able to kill two King ranks with one strike, this strong person's strength is at least in the Emperor rank!
Emperor rank powerhouse, even if the other party is a beer belly bald greasy old man, Xiaoxiao can not care so much.
She has also served old men before.
As long as you can survive!
"I don't know which adult rescued us, please come out and let the little girl see."
Xiaoxiao stood up and kept looking around, her face full of eagerness.
And when the mysterious powerhouse appeared, Xiaoxiao was directly stunned! Red little mouth directly opened to the maximum.
This Emperor rank powerhouse is too young, isn't it? And the appearance is incomparably handsome.
Compared to the kind of monster old man with big yellow teeth in Xiaoxiao's imagination, I don't know how many times better.
Xiaoxiao at this time only four words left in her heart: love at first sight!
Such a young Emperor rank genius, she must take him down!
Xiaoxiao does not believe that in this world, there is a man who can refuse a woman's active dedication?
