Chapter 75: Flaming Eyes
Chapter 78 Flaming Hair and Burning Eyes
Ordinary people generally have two reactions when facing death.
One is to be extremely frightened and ugly, while the other is surprisingly calm. Takahashi Yashichiro is the latter.
Looking at the monster in front of him rushing towards him, at that moment, he thought of many things in his mind, including the kitten in the house he rented that he had not fed today, the first draft of the beginning that was currently written on the table, and the precarious balance in the bank card... But in the end, all these things were attributed to one emotion.
...Regret.
Regret that there are still many things that he has not done, regret that he cannot write a classic work, regret that he has not created a character that can be remembered forever... and that he is not the male protagonist.
According to the routine in the light novel, at this time, there should be a heroic and beautiful girl holding a sword on the stage, right? But now there is no heroic and beautiful girl in front of him, only a monster covered with scales greedily rushing towards him.
But just as Takahashi Yashichiro closed his eyes and prepared to accept his fate, and began to think in his mind whether he should cooperate and expose his neck to die faster, just like the classic opening in the light novel... the god of war descended from the sky! !
Just like lightning piercing the darkness, a long scarlet sword tore through the thick night and fell from the sky, and then pierced straight into the ground.
If the monster had not reacted quickly and suddenly jumped up and retreated in time, this sword would have been enough to cut it off! !
"This..."
Looking at the sword that was inserted directly into the ground in front of him, Takahashi Yashichiro opened his eyes unconsciously.
Unlike the feelings of other people who escaped death, as a light novel writer, he had only one thought in his mind at this time.
... So I am really the protagonist?
If it follows the normal routine in light novels, the next appearance should be a heroic...
Takahashi Yashichiro just thought of this, as if to confirm his thoughts, the figure of a petite girl in a black long windbreaker who fell from the sky appeared in his sight.
... Am I still late?
Looking at the half arm behind the deadpool in front of him, Mu Qingzhi frowned unconsciously.
It has been almost half a month since the last attack on the special school in the mountains. In this half month, although there has been no large-scale conflict between the ghosts and the eight families of Sheqi, the small-scale conflicts in private have intensified.
It is precisely because of this that they who have just joined the Execution Bureau have not had much time to rest. They are almost on the battlefield or on the way to the battlefield every moment.
Although they are a little tired, with their outstanding performance in the past half month, Mu Qingzhi and the four-person team she led have undoubtedly become the trump card in the Execution Bureau.
In half a month, they have carried out a total of 24 missions, and each mission was completed perfectly. Not only did they destroy the important plans of the ghosts many times, but they also captured nearly 100 internal members...
At this special time node, Mu Qingzhi successfully cleared her name with her outstanding achievements.
In the past, when the Sheqi family mentioned the eldest daughter of the Uesugi family, they usually said "urban legend", "elusive", "a sickly young lady who never leaves her house", etc., but now, the public opinion has almost subverted.
——The eldest daughter of the Uesugi family is now respected by the Sheqi family as "Tsukuyomi-no-Mikoto".
To be honest, when Mu Qingzhi first learned about this title from Jiude Mai, she personally wanted to complain.
Judging from her fighting style, it should be "Amaterasu-no-Mikoto", how can it be related to "Tsukuyomi-no-Mikoto"?
But then again, it is not wrong to say that Japan generally has a strong-admiring mentality...
In fact, Mu Qingzhi personally doesn't care about this title. After all, this title can't give her a salary increase or give her a holiday. It's just a title, and there is no need for her to pay too much attention to it.
On the contrary, because of this title, their work has become even busier...
Especially in the past week, after those people in the ghost group got a batch of evolution serum from nowhere, Mu Qingzhi didn't even have much time to eat, and could only hurriedly swallow water with dry bread.
Originally, the hybrids in the ghost group had extremely unstable bloodlines, and it was easy for them to degenerate into deadpools. Those evolution serums could certainly enhance their own combat power to a great extent, but at the same time, they also made them one step closer to the abyss, and the probability of degenerating into deadpools increased dramatically.
Take today's incident as an example. The humanoid deadpool in front of her is the fifth one that Mu Qingzhi has dealt with this week.
Deadpools are something that ordinary hybrids can't deal with. Ordinary guns can't break their body defenses at all, and they move fast, so they can only engage in dangerous close combat or group fire suppression.
Especially for the deadpools in front of them who have been degenerated after their bloodlines have been strengthened by evolution serums, once they are allowed to enter the downtown area, the consequences are unimaginable.
It is precisely because of this that when facing these deadpools, it is simply unrealistic to want to watch them from a distance and wait for support. You can only use your flesh and blood to hold them off and delay their pace of rushing into ordinary people's society.
Because of the existence of these deadpools, the casualties in the Executive Bureau have risen sharply in the past week.
"Back off and go to a safe place."
Turning her head to look at the young man lying on the ground behind her, she pulled up the Zhidianzana that was inserted into the ground with one hand, and spoke in a deep voice.
While speaking, her right hand had already grasped the hilt of the knife.
At that moment, the ink-like black hair behind her head quickly turned into a fiery red, and her eyes even faintly revealed a red glow calcined by lava.
——For these blood-sucking beasts that have completely lost their reason, she has no need to hold back.
"Ah... Oh oh!!"
Suddenly coming back to his senses from the girl's appearance and changes, Takahashi Yashiro quickly got up from the ground, and then quickly ran to the back.
During this process, his heart was full of joy.
...He seemed to know what he should write in his next light novel.
Holding a large sword, wearing a black windbreaker, walking in the night to protect the present world, the girl with flaming hair and burning eyes... Isn't this the inspiration he has been looking for these days?
The scene of the girl with flaming hair and burning eyes appearing in front of him, he felt that he might never forget it in his life. Now, he can't wait to go back to the table and write down this story.
- With the girl with flaming hair and burning eyes as the protagonist, create a story that belongs to her! !
