Chapter 118: The Hidden Nightmare
Chapter 118 Hidden Nightmare
Under the dark night, the girl stared at the earth beside her in a daze.
On that desolate and dry earth, there was no one figure. There was only a "hiss" that seemed to exist and was vague, echoing in the sky, bringing a sense of fear that made people's hair stand upright.
"Mr. Rod, Marlene?"
Lijie hesitated and walked forward a few steps, whispering to her companion, but she didn't get any answers. Where is this place? Why is she here? Lijie herself doesn't know the answer. She feels her heart beating very fast and her breathing becomes more and more rapid...
A cold raindrop fell from the sky and fell on the girl's face.
It's raining?
Lijie subconsciously touched the water droplets below, but when she took her hand away, she found the bright red on her fingers. Then, Lijie raised her head and looked into the sky - then she was stiff.
On her head, Marlene was staring at her friend with her eyes wide open, her body had been completely torn apart from the middle, dozens of wind snakes were spreading their sharp teeth, biting her flesh and blood wildly. Marlene hung upside down like a tattered doll, her hands hanging down, blood flowing down her fingertips, slowly dripping to the ground. Beside her was Rhode, who was only one head left, and his head pierced the wind snake, without any light in his blank eyes. At this moment, Lijie discovered that it turned out that the clouds that were blocking the sky were not clouds, but the condensed bodies of countless wind snakes. At this moment, they were constantly flapping their wings, and greed and desire were revealed in their eyes that emitted green light. Looking around, it was a dark piece, and there was almost no end.
The buzzing sound of flapping wings is low and shocking, even bringing people a sense of oppression.
"Marlene!! Mr. Rhodes!!"
Lijie screamed almost hissingly. Huge fear and sadness filled her heart in an instant. Her body began to tremble, and even the scenery in front of her began to blur. The wind snakes who were enjoying food seemed to hear her screaming at this moment. They screamed, and then rushed down like locusts. Lijie only had time to raise her right hand, and the next moment, she felt the other party's sharp teeth penetrated her throat without mercy...
The girl opened her eyes.
She stared blankly at the camp in front of her, and after a while she realized what had happened. She turned around and saw Marlene sleeping beside her. Judging from the smile on her face, she obviously had a good dream.
"It's a dream...it's just a nightmare..."
It was not until this time that the girl let out a long sigh. She realized that her hands were trembling constantly. Everything in her dream was so clear. Even now, Lijie still remembers those faces and the bloody and disgusting...
“Woo……!!”
Thinking of this, Lijie felt a sense of disgust rushing upwards uncontrollably. She hurriedly covered her mouth and rushed out of the tent, then lay down into the ditch next to her and vomited vigorously.
“Wow……”
Lying on the stone, Lijie only felt her body weak and weak. She was trembling. The cold night wind blew, making her tremble like a little rabbit in the cold winter. But even so, Lijie found that she could not forget the terrible dream before. The scenes were so vivid that she couldn't help but reach out to touch her throat, but the touch of being pierced by sharp teeth appeared in her mind again.
“Woo……”
Lijie lowered her head again.
Why is this happening? Haven’t I overcome it? I should have no problem. Mr. Rod also said that I have no problem, but why... it was just a nightmare, Lijie, cheer up, that kind of thing won’t happen again. You must be clear about this, don’t be afraid, don’t be afraid...
Lijie held her hand tightly and kept muttering to herself, but her body trembled even more and more intensely. The cold breath penetrated into the girl's body. Lijie, who was already in a cold sweat, felt that her body was completely numb, as if she no longer listened to her command. At the same time, a feeling of exhaustion surged into her heart. She wanted to close her eyes and fall asleep comfortably...
And at this moment, a voice pulled Lijie's consciousness back.
"Sister Lijie, what's wrong with you?"
Lijie raised her head and saw Labis tightening her cloak, carefully poking her head out of the tent and staring at her. After seeing Lijie's appearance, Labis exclaimed, then immediately jumped out of her tent and trotted to Lijie's side.
"Sister Lijie, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable? Do you want me to call..."
Halfway through, Labis got stuck. You should know that Lijie was originally responsible for treating others in the mercenary group. Now that she is sick, Labis doesn't know who to call her for a while... You can't ask Lijie to take care of Lijie.
"No."
Lijie grabbed Labis's hand and shook her head with a wry smile.
"I just had a nightmare and was a little tired... Can I go to your place to rest for a while?"
Originally, Lijie planned to go back to her tent, but when she thought of Marlene, the girl immediately changed her mind. She was not sure whether she would think of that nightmare again after seeing Marlene, and she was unwilling to wake up her friends and let her worry about her. After all, this was her own business.
"Of course there is no problem!"
Hearing Lijie's request, Labis nodded quickly without hesitation. Then she helped Lijie up and carefully helped her into her tent.
Unlike others, she was the only one in Labis's tent. This was not because she wanted to be special like Rhodes. As an alchemist, a quiet environment was essential for Labis. At this moment, in Labis' tent, a bunch of simple alchemy tools were neatly placed on the wooden plate next to it, and the dark green liquid inside was still rolling, emitting a strange and pungent smell.
"Are you not asleep yet?"
"The leader of the group asked me to finish these things."
Hearing Lijie's inquiry, Labis replied helplessly. Hearing her answer, Lijie also chuckled. Of course, she knew why Labis was so tragic. During the day, Rhodes took Shana and others around the forest, found a bunch of magic plants, and then stuffed all of these things to Labis. At the same time, Rhodes also stuffed Labis a recipe and asked her to refine the potion according to the records in the recipe.
Come on. Although Labis still habitually wanted to argue with Rhodes, the latter's cold "Stop talking nonsense, just do it" completely scared the poor Labis back. At this moment, she could only helplessly follow Rhode's request and do these things that she didn't even know what was useful to her. However, Rhode didn't seem to intend to explain to her. As long as Labis could do what she said, he didn't care about the rest.
Although Labis thinks this team leader is really domineering, what else can she do now?
She could only agree with the mercenary group by biting the bullet. After all, no matter what, everyone else could contribute to the mercenary group, and only she could do nothing. This always made Labis feel guilty. Now she was very happy to make some contributions to the mercenary group.
"Come on, Sister Lijie, here is a cup of herbal tea that can make you feel more comfortable."
Soon, Labis brought a cup of tea to Lijie. After taking the tea cup, Lijie looked at the warm tent in front of her and felt that she felt much more comfortable in body and mind.
"Thank you, Labis, but... are you dressed like this in the tent?"
Looking at the girl in front of her, Lijie couldn't help but ask curiously. Although she was in a tent, Labis was still wearing her hooded cloak, wrapping her head and body in it, without any intention of taking it off. Not only her, but even her brother. To be honest, Lijie has been having questions about it for a long time.
"I'm used to this outfit. Having said that, Sister Lijie, are you really okay?"
Looking at Lijie drinking the comfortable hot tea in the glass, Labis asked again uneasy, but this time Lijie still shook her head with a wry smile.
"It's really nothing, Labis, I just had a nightmare... a nightmare that I don't want to recall, there's nothing to say."
"oh…………'
Hearing Lijie's words, Labis nodded in a slight sense of understanding. She didn't understand what Lijie meant very much, but she knew that since the other party didn't want to say it, she should not ask any more. Then she didn't say anything, so she turned around again, sat in front of the wooden plate and continued to refine her own potion.
That's right, that's just a dream...
Sitting beside him, looking at Labis' busy back, Lijie gradually closed her eyes, and a hazy sleepy feeling came towards her. Then, Lijie closed her eyes and fell asleep.
She didn't notice that after she fell asleep, Labis, who had been busy refining the medicine, turned around secretly, walked to her side carefully, and covered her with a blanket. Then, looking at Lijie's pale but calm face, Labis hesitated for a moment, then reached into her arms, and then she took out a green, white magic badge and gently pressed it on Lijie's forehead.
The emerald green and comfortable brilliance soon emanated from the badge, and then enveloped the girl's body. After several minutes, the light slowly dissipated. At this moment, Lijie's originally stiff expression also eased a lot. Instead, Labis frowned, she held her hands in front of her chest, looked at Lijie with some timidity, and then looked outside the tent.
"It's better to tell the team leader..."
Labis murmured to herself, then she turned around and walked out of the camp.
