Chapter 54: descendants of god
Huo Xingchao and Ermi are half-siblings.
He knew, but Ermi never knew.
Fortunately, Ermi can't see color, otherwise, she must be wondering why her brother's hair is black, but her own is blond.
Why is my brother's pupils such a deep dark green, while his own is a beautiful light blue.
She also didn't know that her mother used to be the mistress of an earl in the noble district.
And when she was born, she lost her complete eyes.
-Because the real eldest lady of the Earl's family just needs a pair of eyes, a pair of eyes from the same bloodline.
Her elder sister, ten years older than her, in the year she was born, accidentally hurt her eyes because of the war between the different races, and she couldn't see color since then.
The earl had an old friend who was a ninth-level doctor. He told the earl that he could help the eldest lady change her eyes.
Ermi's eyes are the most suitable.
At that time, she was still a baby who could not open her eyes, and her development was very weak.
The doctors forced digging and replacement, and after putting on new eyes for several days, Ermi still couldn't get used to it.
Ermi's mother heard her daughter's cry, which sounded like a piercing cry, and finally couldn't help it, and secretly took her to escape from the small courtyard bought by the earl.
Then he married Huo Xingchao's father, and then the family suffered drastic changes.
She is weak and lingering on the sick bed, so she can't bring any income to the family at all, but she has to spend a lot of money on the medicines she needs to take every day.
So Huo Xingchao went out of town to kill aliens since he was twelve years old. After the death of the low-level aliens, their bodies will turn into amber cores. One amber core can be sold for one hundred Tia coins. Huo Xingchao can have five rest days a month. Got scarred.
But now, he can basically get dozens of low-level amber cores on a rest day. Sometimes if you are lucky, you can also kill high-level aliens.
Of course, he wouldn't sell the amber core of high-level aliens, and he made soup for Ermi to eat.
Ermi was raised by Huo Xingchao since childhood. For her, her brother is another father.
My brother would braid her beautiful hair, teach her to read, and put her to sleep.
Every time I come back from school, I bring her gifts. Sometimes it's sparkling candy, sometimes it's a pretty little dress.
Childhood is the happiest time for Ermi.
It was only later that she grew up a little, and without the doctor's care, the eyes of the elder sister became more and more uncomfortable for her, and it would be particularly painful every once in a while.
Finally one day, some strangers came to the house. They said that they had a sister and needed a few drops of her blood to protect their eyes.
Mother stood in front of them, but to no avail, they rushed in anyway, stabbing long needles in their chests and draining a tube of blood.
Ermi had fallen down accidentally before, and had shed a lot of blood, but she had never felt so uncomfortable. It hurts like I'm about to die.
She is only eight years old, and she seems to understand a lot of things, but she only knows that death is the most terrifying thing in the world.
Later, my brother came back.
She shrank in her brother's arms and cried softly, but did not dare to cry too loudly, for fear that her brother would be distressed.
She saw the look in her brother's eyes getting more and more angry, more and more angry, and then growled, turning into a huge big dog.
The big dog licked her gently, just like when her brother coaxed her to sleep.
Ermi thought, it must be because his eyes hurt so much that he had hallucinations, how could my brother be a big dog.
She closed her eyes and had a dream. In that dream, a strange color appeared that she had never seen before.
From the eyes of my brother, from the wound on her chest, oh, and from a vague hand in front of me when I was very young.
Wow, that's amazing.
Ermi's eyes widened in the dream. Is this the color of blood? My brother said that the flag is also the color.
So lovely!
She thought about it, smiled sweetly, and then fell into a deep sleep.
......
The silver tiger beast roared sadly, carefully placed the little **** the bed, and ran into the depths of the night.
What belongs to Ermi, he will take back.
Including those eyes.
......
Yes, the big dog is Huo Xingchao.
In fact, it is not a big dog. His animal body has a name called Silver Tiger Beast.
The hair is silver, the shape is like a tiger, and the shoulders have flying wings.
It is called the Silver Tiger Beast.
There are only two ends left in the entire continent.
One is half-crippled, and the other is like a tiger but not a tiger.
......
In fact, from a very young age, Huo Xingchao knew that he was different from the people around him.
In other words, it is not the same as the beasts around.
Because he can be a man or a beast.
Every time he fell ill, or when his mind power broke through, or when he was dying from a serious injury, he would turn into a strange beast.
It doesn't feel good.
It was as if he had been skinned and cramped, his bones were broken inch by inch, and his mind was full of bloodthirsty desires.
But he was so weak that he could only lie on the ground and growl. The enemy could pierce his heart with one blow, and he died in the form of a beast from then on.
One day, he finally couldn't help it, and cried and asked his father, why, why in this world, some people are born gods, and some people can only be wild beasts that drink blood.
The father's eyes were strange. With deep hatred, anger, but also full of pathos and despair.
He said that there has never been a **** in this world. The so-called **** is just a beast that has been cultivated into the form of a so-called "goddess" who has been imprisoned by humans in the seal of the city wall.
Every year during the war of alien races, the Protoss would activate the seal of the city wall and use thousands of thoughts to lash the beast. The beast will be angry and mad, and every force it counterattacks will become the "power of defense" in the eyes of people.
Father said, Xingchao, do you know why there are Protoss? In fact, they are no different from humans, except that every Protoss is the kind of human who can successfully refine the blood of beasts.
In this world, there are strict hierarchies.
slave. civilian. noble. Protoss. god.
And in this world, the most humble, enduring the boundless loneliness day and night, crying blood and crying, as if in reincarnation, the slaves who endure the scourges.
It is the God whom all people admire.
Father finally said, Xingchao, you know, that beast is your mother.
......
In Huo Xingchao's heart, the people he hated the most were not the alien races outside the city, but the Protoss inside the city.
They imprisoned their mother, made her linger, extracted blood and blood, fed it, and then extracted it again, again and again, tormenting her day and night.
They took their sister's eyes, and when she was eight years old, they took her life.
In his eyes, the most evil, high-sounding, and most deserving of death in this world are the so-called Protoss in high positions.
On the day Ermi died, Huo Xingchao swore that one day, he would drain the blood of the gods of all kingdoms in the city, eat their flesh, eat their blood, knock their bones, **** their marrow, sleep their skins, and smash their flesh. its hair.
Dig out every pair of eyes and bury his sister with him.
Later, Huo Xingchao really succeeded.
But Ermi's spirit still did not enter into a new life with peace of mind.
She is in pain.
For her, the most important people in the world are her mother and brother.
My brother lived so hard, no matter how many eyes she gained and how many colors she saw, she would still suffer.
The only way to restore Ermi's starlight value to full value is not to let her live happily, but to let Huo Xingchao live freely.
......
After dinner, Huo Xingchao washed the amber cores in the storage box, and then asked his stepmother to put them in the pot and cook them overnight.
If the water in the pot is put into the amber herb, if it is not for its function, even if it is burned overnight, it is impossible to burn out the energy in the amber core.
Ermi's body is weak, and Huo Xingchao has been using this method to restore her body in recent years.
In the past few years, he has killed a lot of alien creatures outside the city, and the amber cores collected every month can easily support a family of three in a civilian area.
But on the one hand, there is only one working person in their family, and on the other hand, the medicinal herbs that the stepmother needs to drink every month is a big expense. Moreover, the high-grade amber cores that Huo Xingchao obtained were not sold, but were used as nourishment products for the little sister, so after a few years, the family's savings were still not enough.
The little girl was holding a picture book and listened attentively to her brother teaching her to read.
When my brother pointed a word, she followed it, being well-behaved and obedient.
But less than half an hour later, Huo Xingchao refused to let her continue to watch, and touched the small tug on her head,
"Ermi, it's time for us to sleep. If you look at it again, your eyes will hurt again."
"it is good."
The little girl gave a crisp response, and then asked her brother to wash her face, hands and feet, lying on the bed with hot herbs on her eyes.
Her little hands were neatly placed on her stomach. After a while, she felt her brother was still by her side, so she called him, "Brother."
"What's wrong?"
"Don't bring me presents next time, go home early."
"What's the matter, doesn't Ermi like these candies?"
"No, my mother said that it's very hard for my brother to make money. Ermi doesn't eat candy. Are you not so hard, brother?"
Huo Xingchao rubbed her head and said in a soft voice, "Brother is not working hard, Ermi has to be good. One day, brother will show you many colors."
.....
The eyes still have to be taken back.
Revenge is to take revenge yourself.
four years.
There are still four years before Ermi's eighth birthday.
There are only four years left to regain those eyes.
