Chapter 337 Belea’s Memories
As the saying goes, the scar is healed and the pain is forgotten.
At this time, Belea had completely forgotten that it was Lu Qi who had seriously injured her, and all that was left in her mind was the memory of the delicious food just now.
She looked at Lu Qi eagerly, with a pair of big, clear and stupid eyes, as if to say: "Give me another piece, just one piece!"
Her mind is like that of a child.
Lu Qi threw the last piece of roasted Yalong dog meat out and said, "This is the last piece. If you want to continue eating, you have to go back with me."
Belea chewed the meat in her mouth, but she became acutely alert at this moment.
She swallowed the food in one gulp, then took a few steps back and said, "I don't want to be locked up anymore!"
In her eyes at this moment, Lucci was no different from those Noxians.
They all want to take her back and keep her trapped.
She never wanted to go back to those days.
Lu Qi said calmly: "I will not lock you up. You can be treated like a normal person in Demacia."
"I'm not a normal person."
Belea is still very clear about her position. She knows that she may not even be considered a 'person'.
"You can be." Lu Qi looked at her, "The fact that you can talk to me normally here means that you can become a normal person."
Belea looked at his beautiful eyes, hesitating and feeling a little moved, but she still said on guard: "Why me?"
She thought that the person in front of her should know her details. If she was willing to come to her like this, there must be a reason.
She never wanted to go back to the dark days of the past.
So be careful and careful.
Lucci didn't hide anything from her, and said, "Because you are very powerful, and Demacia just needs weapons to deal with Noxus."
In his view, Belea is a controllable resource of power.
She possesses great strength and is definitely a sharp blade when used properly.
As for her, she might have eaten people before, but as long as she wasn't Demacian, that would be fine.
Lu Qi is a double-standard person, with two different faces internally and externally.
What's more, he knew that this was not actually Belea's fault.
Because that was how she was set up when she was created.
If the other party can set it like this, then he can naturally change the setting.
Hearing Lu Qi's answer, Belea thought seriously for a moment, then stared at Lu Qi seriously: "If I follow you, can I continue to eat the meat I just had?"
Lu Qi just said two words lightly: "Guan Sati."
Those two words directly broke down Belea's last psychological defense, and also made her feel a strong sense of happiness at this moment.
"Guan full" is such a dreamy word for a girl who doesn't have enough to eat.
"I'm determined to follow you!"
Belea said decisively.
"In that case, put this on."
Lucci said, throwing a collar towards Belea.
This is the pet collar he got last year, and the current situation made Lu Qi think of using it.
Belea immediately took the collar into her hands. It was a collar made of black leather sheath, and she quite liked it.
After listening to Lu Qi's words, she put it on her neck without hesitation.
Suddenly, she felt as if there was a strange connection between herself and Lu Qi.
Lu Qi in her eyes suddenly became her closest and favorite person in the world, and she couldn't help but want to pounce on him and lick him.
In Lu Qi's mind, there was feedback that the system was successfully bound. He didn't expect it to be so easy.
He didn't feel the guilt of coaxing an ignorant girl. When he saw that the binding was successful, he said, "Belea."
"exist!"
Belea stood up straight reflexively, eagerly waiting for Lu Qi's instructions, without any resistance in her heart.
In her eyes, Lu Qi was already a particularly good person if he could give her the delicious food just now.
So when I put on the collar, I didn't feel any rejection at all. Very willingly.
"Put this on first, and I'll give you something that fits you when I get back." Lu Qi looked at her ragged body and threw out a piece of clothing as he spoke.
Belea started to dress clumsily, and heard what Lu Qi said next.
"Since you have decided to join Demacia and follow me, I will give you the greatest freedom, but you must also agree to three rules."
Belea's head was covered in clothes, and the bloodstone shackles seemed to be a hindrance at this time, but she thought of a clever way, and her head suddenly emerged from the collar of her clothes, and then she tilted her head and looked at Lu Qi: "Three chapters of the agreement? "
Lu Qi looked at her: "I mean, you have to be obedient."
"I will be very obedient!"
Belea immediately promised.
Lu Qi said: "First, we can no longer eat people."
In Belea's eyes, there is no difference between humans and animals. They just eat.
But since Lu Qi took her in, he didn't want to see anything like this again.
"Can't eat people." Belea stayed where she was, feeling that it was a pity that she couldn't eat people, but soon this pityful emotion was washed away by an inexplicable feeling and disappeared.
She nodded repeatedly: "Yeah!"
"Second, you can't hurt your companions."
There was nothing to hesitate about. On the contrary, Belea was more serious than Lucci and said: "I will never hurt my companions!"
Lu Qi continued: "Third, we must not kill innocent people indiscriminately. Of course, I will define innocence. As far as you are concerned, no Noxian is innocent."
Belea listened obediently and nodded again: "Yeah."
This would make her already wearing almost the same clothes, which would not fit her well, but Lu Qi couldn't directly create a suit that would fit her.
After thinking about it, there was nothing more to explain, so he took Belea and chased the Demacia army.
Soon, before dusk came in the afternoon, we caught up with the large army.
As it was approaching evening, and a big battle had just occurred, Tiana had arranged for the troops to set up camp and rest.
Seeing Lu Qi bring back another small girl, people didn't show too much fuss. Some soldiers even saw Belea on the battlefield.
They recognized her as one of the living weapons sent by Noxus.
But since it was brought back by Lu Qi and he seemed quite honest, everyone ignored him.
Belea followed Lu Qi in, looking around everywhere with curiosity. If Lu Qi hadn't been right in front of her, she would have definitely jumped up and down to explore everywhere.
Luqi took Belea back to his camp, and soon Lux and others came after hearing about it.
"You said she is hailed as the most powerful living weapon in Noxus?"
Lux stood in front of Belea, looking at Belea who was a little shorter than herself and did not look like a harmful creature, with disbelief on her face.
Lu Qi glanced at her and said, "Be careful, her teeth are much sharper than yours."
"What are you talking about? I'm not a puppy, and I don't know how to bite people."
Lux stretched out her hand and touched Belea's head, feeling no threat from Belea at all.
Belea also didn't like being surrounded by everyone and looked at her. She was curious about everything she came into contact with after being free, and looked at everyone around her with the same curiosity.
She found that everyone smelled good, and she didn't hate it at all.
Lux curiously poked at the bloodstone shackles that imprisoned Belea at this moment: "Why are you carrying this thing? Isn't it uncomfortable? Let's find a way to take it off for you."
Belea stepped back and avoided her: "You can't take it off."
Of course she knew what she would look like after taking off her shackles, and she could guarantee that everyone here would never want to see her like that.
Lux didn't insist on asking anymore and chose to respect Belea. She felt there must be a reason.
At this time, as agreed, Lu Qi roasted three sub-dragon dogs for Belea. One sub-dragon dog was bigger than two or three people, which was definitely enough for her to eat.
Before that, I changed a set of clothes for her.
Then, Belea, who completely let go of her hands and feet, fell into the delicious taste of barbecue and couldn't extricate herself.
"Can she eat all this by herself?"
Lux looked at the scene in front of her with some surprise. She couldn't even finish eating so much meat.
However, seeing her feasting there, Lux went from doubting at the beginning, to being stunned, to admiring, and was completely convinced.
From now on, the title of the most delicious around Lu Qi will probably be given to Belea.
Killing a sub-dragon dog in a matter of minutes is simply terrifying.
What was even more unimaginable to her was that despite being so thin, could there be a black hole in her belly?
Where does everything you eat go?
In fact, it is directly transformed into energy through blood magic and supplied to itself.
Looking at Belea over there, Lu Qi found Sona and briefly explained Belea's situation.
"I hope you can use magic to influence her subconscious and modify her original settings."
Lu Qi believed that only Sona could do such a thing, and she was usually unwilling to use magic to affect a person's true heart.
But the setting of living weapons when they were first created was killing, bloodthirsty, and destruction.
Even Belea, who has reason, thinks that these are extremely normal people.
But if you want her to be a normal person most of the time, these must be changed.
At this time, Sona stared at Belea, and naturally recognized her. She was the only living weapon that could unlock her control at that time.
At this time, she went to feel Belea's heart carefully. In an instant, she saw the surging blood magic, the inner world riddled with holes, and the shadow shrouded in darkness.
"I always feel that I can dig out more things from her heart."
Sona's heartfelt message was conveyed to Lu Qi, and she said with a somewhat affected emotion: "Her heart is like a desolate world, with no life, only deathly silence."
At least now, it seems that Belea is just like ordinary people, except that she is very edible.
But her heart is completely different from ordinary people.
This was Sona's first time encountering such a situation.
She always felt that there was something else deep in Belea's heart.
Lu Qi quietly held Sona's hand and said: "Anyway, I'm begging you. She is a product of the experiment and is already miserable enough. There is no need to make it worse."
"Yeah, I know how to do that."
Sona nodded with serious eyes.
Belea lived up to Lu Qi's preparations and quickly finished eating the three dragon dogs. Her belly finally bulged. She lay on the ground and felt like she had no regrets in her life.
Sure enough, following Lu Qi is the right choice!
Belea had never been so happy.
At this time, Lu Qi looked at her and said: "Next, we will use magic to enter your inner world. Don't resist."
Although Belea didn't know why Lu Qi did this, she agreed without any hesitation: "Okay! Come on! I'm ready!"
So, she waited.
In the camp, Lux and others were sitting, looking at Sona who was ready.
Sona put Juhua on her lap and immediately played the strings with her bare hands. Immediately, beautiful music radiated out.
The melody turned into a magic beam and shot towards Belea's heart, sinking into it.
As if she didn't feel it, she still took the opportunity to feel happy after eating and drinking.
The next second, she looked in pain, feeling as if her heart was being held tightly. She subconsciously wanted to resist, but she remembered Lu Qi's words and endured it.
Fortunately, Sona solved it quickly.
Because soon after her perception entered Belea's inner world, she encountered the blood magic in her heart.
Blood magic actually existed in ancient legends before this. Even in legends, it was a forbidden power.
Rumor has it that they are a group of beings as powerful as gods, using the power.
Now, blood magic has appeared on living weapons like Belea.
It is not difficult to find that some people are using blood magic to try to subvert the normal routine of the human body.
In fact, he succeeded.
Because Belea's appearance here is a successful example.
Belea's ability to move and survive is almost not run by her heart, but by blood magic.
Blood magic is her true origin, which means that even if she is penetrated through the heart, she will not die.
But again, if she lost her blood magic, she would die immediately.
Blood magic is the first line of defense in Belea's heart, and it is probably the last line.
In order not to destroy the blood magic, Sona could only use as gentle a method as possible to quietly get around it. Now she is naturally extremely skilled in controlling her abilities.
Therefore, he quickly broke through the barrier and successfully entered Belea's inner world.
Music seemed to bring life to the world, but Sona knew that if she didn't understand it more deeply, it would only be temporary.
Fortunately, without any obstruction, she found what she wanted easily.
A sealed memory.
Belea originally thought that the music played by Sona was extremely pleasant, and she was immersed in the music. Suddenly, the scene in front of her eyes flickered, and she seemed to have entered a strange world.
She was unable to move, as if she had no arms and legs. She seemed to be trapped in a body, and could only see the world through her eyes.
Then she suddenly realized that this was herself.
when did it happen?
Belea was completely unimpressed.
She was currently in a dark cell, lying on a pile of weeds, her body weak and weak.
She raised her hand and found that her palm was smaller than usual and a little thinner.
"Belea? Are you awake?"
At this moment, a girl's voice sounded.
She looked towards the voice and saw a brown-haired girl with a few freckles on her face, looking at her with concern: "It's okay, just be patient and it will be over."
Belea remembered that the girl's name was Milissa and she was her friend.
friend?
Belea thought blankly, when did she have such a friend?
At this time, Milissa brought her cold water, and Belea swallowed it eagerly, and even choked on it.
"Drink slowly, it'll be okay."
Milissa comforted softly.
At this time, Belea looked around and suddenly discovered that there were four girls around her.
Two of them were unconscious and two had woken up, huddled in the corner in fear.
"When can we go out?"
Belea looked at Milissa uneasily.
"We will be able to get out soon." Milisa replied firmly: "As long as we are obedient, they will definitely let us go."
"Um."
Belea felt the warm breath coming from Milissa and subconsciously believed her.
Then, she remembered that the other four girls were also her friends.
Legree, Suzy, Elisa, Olenna
One by one, extremely familiar names echoed in my ears.
Then she remembered that they lived together in an orphanage, catching butterflies, earthworms, and playing games every day until a pale-skinned man came to the orphanage and took them away.
They were brought here and were given unpleasant potions every day. They would also have sharp needles inserted into their bodies to deliver a weird-colored liquid.
I will have a high fever after I come back, which is very uncomfortable.
They felt very scared. They had no relatives in the world, so they could only rely on each other.
Fortunately, they are all here. Every day when I see my friends coming back safe and sound, I can't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
The pale-skinned person later said that they were sick and needed to be cured. As long as they can persevere, they can all be free in the end.
So, they encouraged each other, and with the comfort of the oldest Milissa, they still had expectations for a better tomorrow and would not despair.
Among the six people, Belea was the weakest. She was the youngest and her health was not very good.
Every time she opened her eyes, she could see Milisa's eyes about to cry.
At this time, Belea would turn around and comfort Milisa.
In the hearts of these young children, they always firmly believe that one day they will return to the outside world.
The days were spent under this hope, and gradually their bodies became stronger and stronger. Except for Belea, they basically no longer had fever.
It seemed that the pale-skinned man had not lied to them. They were really sick, and the drugs they drank and injected before were all medicines to treat the disease.
Because they feel that their bodies are stronger than before.
This went on day after day.
One day, the pale-skinned man stood at the door of the cell again. With a gentle smile, he called Susie away.
He held Susie's little hand and gradually disappeared at the end of the corridor.
At this moment, Belea had a bad premonition and felt a sharp pain in her brain. It seemed like something was going to happen next, but she was completely unable to stop it at this time and could only watch.
After Susie was taken away, she never came back.
Milissa, she, and the other three friends were all worried about Susie, but they had no way of knowing what was wrong with Susie.
The next day, a pale-skinned man took Legeli away.
On the third day, he took Elisa away.
For three consecutive days, none of the three friends came back, and the remaining three gradually felt scared.
The pale-skinned man had no explanation for this and seemed to have no need to waste his words.
They hugged each other, crying loudly in a cage with only a little light, feeling extremely scared in their hearts.
In order to fight against fear, they even comforted themselves that maybe the three friends had left here and gained freedom.
On the fourth day, the pale-skinned man will take Olenna away.
Olenna was so frightened that she collapsed on the ground. Her cries echoed through the cell. She didn't even have the courage to escape.
Still being led away, the crying sound reached the ears of Milissa and Belea, and they also cried.
We can only hug each other and comfort each other.
In the end, Olenna did not come back.
Of the six girls who were initially full of hope for tomorrow, only two are left.
On the fifth day, the man with pale skin came again and wanted to take Belea away.
However, Milissa took the initiative to stand up and was willing to leave with the man.
It seemed that it didn't matter who among them was, since she was willing, he took her away.
Berea wanted to join him, struggled to get up, and ran to follow.
She didn't want to endure such a life anymore, but the other party obviously thought it was against the rules, so he locked her up.
But what was unexpected this time was that Milissa was sent back very late.
However, her whole body was wrapped in white and bleeding bandages, and she fell into a deep coma.
Belea was so frightened that she didn't even dare to go up and hug Milisa. She could only stay by her side and cry continuously.
It seemed that the tears had an effect. Milissa miraculously woke up, and even more miraculously, her wounds recovered.
This result made the pale-skinned man very happy, and he took Milissa away again.
Before leaving this time, Milissa confidently comforted Belea and said, "I will definitely protect you."
That night, Milissa was sent back again, but her condition was more serious. Most of her body was covered in blood and the bandages were stained red.
And this time she was not so lucky and was awake.
So the whole night, I could only vent my anger by crying and yelling.
Belea didn't know what to do or what to do, she just cried.
A miracle happened again. The next day, Milissa's wounds healed again and she was taken away again.
On the third night, Milissa was thrown back covered in blood. She was not wrapped around her body, and the shocking wounds were right in front of Berea's eyes.
She was almost stained with blood, and her gentle face could no longer be seen at all.
Even so, Belea was not afraid of her. She stayed close to Milissa, not knowing what she could do for her.
Milissa was still awake, and she hoped that Belea could tell her a story to soothe her pain.
Belea did as she was told, and she recalled her favorite story, which Milissa had told her.
Milisa seemed to smile, listened happily, slowly closed her eyes, and fell into a deep sleep.
Belea was afraid that she would leave her, so she didn't dare to close her eyes all night and stayed by Milissa's side to make sure she was still breathing.
In fact, there is, even if it is very weak, the breath is always there.
But this time the miracle did not happen, and the wounds on her body did not recover.
The pale-skinned man came again, and this time Belea also saw a woman wearing a robe.
She said: "Vladimir, it seems that your experiment failed."
Vladimir, the moment she heard this name, Belea felt a twinge in her brain.
When Vladimir heard this, he just said calmly: "There is no absolute success in the world. We are still in a stage of exploration. Even if blood magic is used on the dead, it requires someone with a strong physique like Sion to succeed. Not to mention conducting experiments on living people."
The woman in cassock looked at Milisa with regret: "What a pity, she is obviously only a little short."
"A little bit is still a shortcoming. This point is very likely to be a step that we will never be able to cross."
Vladimir looked at Milisa with eyes full of indifference and ruthlessness towards life, and then said as if he was sentenced to death, "It is impossible for her to wake up, she has no value anymore."
Hearing this, Belea was stunned on the spot. She quickly stood up, spread her hands to protect Milissa, and mustered up the courage to say: "Nonsense, Milissa will definitely wake up. Just like the previous two times. "
As she spoke, tears fell from her eyes.
Vladimir looked at her indifferently: "You know far less about the structure of living things than I do. Her physical vitality has collapsed. Without my blood magic to support her, she would be a dead body."
Belea covered her ears and collapsed: "I won't listen!"
"This is not a problem that you can avoid if you don't listen."
Vladimir waved his hand and lifted Belea away from the air. Then with a lift of his finger, Milissa's body floated into the air.
"No! Give it back to me! You can't take her away!"
Belea ran towards Milissa, stretched out her hand, but found that her body was also floating, and there was only a hand's distance between them.
No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't hold Milissa's hand.
"I didn't say I wanted to take her away, I just wanted to destroy her. No one else can know about the blood magic."
Vladimir said calmly.
Next to me, the woman in ceremonial robes said helplessly: "Are you even going to guard me?"
"Are we familiar?"
Vladimir glanced at her, then looked at Belea, his eyes were bright red, and he said as calmly as lake water, "Actually, I also feel a bit of a pity. Do you know where the pity is?"
Belea just cried.
"She is indeed the most different among you, so I originally wanted to leave her at the end. But she is willing to stand up for you, so I have to respect her."
"She is also the only one who dares to look me in the eye and want to bet with me."
Vladimir said with interest, shaking his finger, the blood magic was already in operation, and a blood-red magic appeared on Milissa's body.
"Although I don't know what she wants to bet on, I have happily agreed."
"She said that as long as she can persist for five days, after five days, no matter what, I will let you go. Because you are too weak, you may not even be able to withstand the initial stage of the experiment, and you are a completely meaningless experiment. "
"I'm amazed that this little girl knows what I'm doing."
Vladimir looked at Milissa with a hint of pity in his eyes.
When he said this, Belea stopped crying and listened blankly.
I didn’t expect that Milissa would do so much for her.
"The experiment is something that even I am exploring, but she has managed to survive until now with her amazing willpower."
Vladimir sighed softly, "What a pity, it's only two days away."
At this time, blood magic had begun to operate in Milisa's body, expanding her blood vessels and causing rapid circulation, causing Milisa's small body to swell rapidly.
Belea's eyes widened in horror: "No! No!"
The next second, there was a "pop" and something exploded.
Blood splashed all over Belea's face, and more of it floated strangely in the air, like raindrops that had fallen halfway down.
Belea saw Milissa's arms outside the cage and her feet at the other end. Only a few fingers were left on the hands that often touched her tenderly.
The bloody scene happened in front of Belea's eyes.
Her pupils dissipated in an instant.
"She has said that she may not be able to bear the initial stage of the experiment. Even so, do you still want to continue?"
At this time, the woman in robe looked at the unconscious Belea and Vladimir and said.
"These six experimental subjects were all carefully selected by me. Even the weakest ones are worth trying. Naturally, I won't miss them."
Vladimir said as he began to inject blood magic into Belea's body.
In the previous days, he had made a lot of preparations for blood magic to be harmoniously integrated into mortal flesh and blood.
The woman in the robe watched him start to cast a spell and asked, "If this little girl really survives five days, will you let her go?"
"meeting."
Vladimir answered without hesitation and continued, "But she didn't survive."
As some blood flew out from Vladimir's fingertips, the color of the few drops of blood looked more vivid, even with a hint of crystal.
Then it was injected into Belea's body, and blood magic began to be engraved in her body.
This carving process involves destroying the blood vessels and internal organs in her body and then rebuilding them.
This process is naturally extremely painful, and many experimental subjects will collapse during the process and either die or go crazy.
Blood magic spells are complex and often require many passes to be completely imprinted.
After such a long experiment, only Milisa managed to survive. She only needed to survive for two more days, which was actually about it.
Belea was awakened by the pain, and blood began to leak out from her eyes, nose, mouth, and ears, and then blood oozed from the capillary blood holes on her body.
She felt a powerful energy rushing through her body, wreaking wanton destruction.
But at this moment, compared to the pain on her body, what surged in Belea's heart was only infinite hatred and anger.
Scenes of Milissa flashed through his mind, her lovely smile, her soft voice when telling stories, her little emotions when they were having troubles, and the tenderness of holding her in his arms when he was extremely scared.
The next second, what appeared in her mind was the scene of Milissa breaking into pieces and exploding.
"Ahhhhh!!!"
Belea screamed in pain, and her body actually began to actively cater to the movement of blood magic, and even showed a strong suction force, accelerating the imprinting of blood magic.
She frantically absorbed the power of blood magic, her body was rapidly transformed in a short period of time, and her pupils lost any color.
Her hair began to turn white rapidly, and Vladimir was puzzled by the scene before him.
But the next second, Belea roared, instantly breaking his control, and the blood-red smell exploded.
Like a wild beast, she stared at him with hatred, and then disappeared.
Vladimir turned sideways, but there was already a deep bloodstain on his face.
His eyes twitched.
Looking again, Belea was crawling there, swallowing the blood from her fingertips. As her body continued to reshape, she exuded a powerful and terrifying energy.
"This is."
Vladimir didn't pay attention to the wounds on his face and looked at Belea in surprise.
The woman in ceremonial robes looked on and said, "It seems that your experiment was successful."
"No it was most likely just an accident, but it did work."
Vladimir showed a thoughtful look in his eyes, his eyes flickered slightly. Facing Belea's crazy attacks, he kept dodging away. At the same time, he said, "To be honest, she is the one I least expect among these six people." , but I didn’t expect that she was the only one who succeeded. That’s right, her body has been integrated with blood magic, and blood magic will serve as her continuous motivation, giving her powerful power.”
Belea put her feet on the wall of the narrow cell corridor, moved very quickly, and her palms turned into sharp claws, attacking Vladimir.
However, such a fast attack was easily dodged by Vladimir.
The robed woman asked, "So have you found a way to make a second her?"
"Maybe. I might need a moment to try."
A strange scarlet flashed across Vladimir's eyes, and the power of blood magic was suddenly released, instantly knocking Belea away.
Belea flew backwards, hit the wall hard, and was submerged by huge rocks.
"Ah!"
The next second, she burst out of it again, roaring angrily, but she was completely unscathed.
Vladimir was very satisfied with this. As he raised his hand, a flash of scarlet blood rushed towards Belea.
