Chapter 1148 Everything is going according to the script.
On the sea, burning flames and black locust swarms intertwined, forming a terrifying scene like a scroll of hell.
The stench of sulfur and the smell of burnt meat in the air was nauseating.
Alechino and Tartaglia's pupils shrank suddenly at the tragic scene before them.
But after all, he is an executive who has experienced countless life and death tests. His psychological quality is far superior to that of ordinary people. His body just tensed up subconsciously, but he could barely maintain his composure on the surface.
But those cannon fodders of the Fools who came along had already completely collapsed.
They stood on the beach, their ears filled with the shrill screams coming from the distant fleet, their eyes fixed on the burning ships on the sea and the locusts flying in the sky.
Many people were so frightened that they couldn't even stand up. They could only sit on the ground, supporting themselves on the sand with their hands and moving backwards.
"This... Is this hell?" A young Fatui soldier's voice trembled, his eyes staring at the sea with a dazed look, his body shaking uncontrollably.
Another soldier shook his head and muttered to himself.
"Fortunately... Fortunately, we were brought to the beach and not left on the boat... Otherwise, we would have become food for those locusts, or burned to death..."
Alechino looked at the disaster spreading across the sea, then looked at the cannon fodder lying limply on the ground beside him.
At this moment, she no longer had time to think too much. She only had one thought left: she must stop all this!
She suddenly clenched the "Red Moon Shape" in her hand, and the dark red flame danced violently on the weapon, and the aura around her instantly became sharp.
Then, Alechino kicked the ground with both feet and attacked the Apocalypse Horse "War" closest to him.
She wanted to temporarily restrain this terrifying apocalypse horse and buy her subordinates in the fleet a chance to catch their breath.
The Apocalypse Horse "War" was looking down at the burning ships on the sea. Feeling Alecino's sudden attack, he just flicked his tail nonchalantly.
A tiny spark of fire flew away and flew towards Alechino.
At this moment, Alechino's mind was full of thoughts of surprise attack, and he didn't take this spark seriously at all.
But the next second, when the sparks landed on her arm, a piercing burning sensation instantly spread throughout her body, causing her movements to suddenly stop, and she immediately distanced herself from Apocalypse Horse.
You know, Alechino has been controlling fire for many years, and fire has long been flowing in her body like blood.
Over the years, her resistance to fire has reached an extremely high level, and ordinary fire cannot hurt her at all.
But the sparks from the Apocalypse Horse "War" caused her unbearable pain with just a slight touch, and even left a burn mark on her arm.
This is totally unscientific!
Alechino looked down at the wound on his arm, and a storm of emotions surged in his heart.
She instantly realized that the Apocalypse Horse in front of her was no match for her.
At this moment, the only person who can end this "hell" on the sea is Shao Yun!
Alechino turned and shouted at Shao Yun, "Stop! Stop now!!! You've proven your strength, stop!"
Seeing that the time was almost up, Shao Yun blew a crisp whistle into the air.
After hearing the whistle, the apocalypse horse "War" that was releasing flames on the beach suddenly stopped, stepped on the flames under its body with its four hooves, turned around and walked slowly towards Shao Yun.
The apocalypse horse "Famine" that was sowing locusts above the fleet also stopped sowing disasters. The locusts in the sky received the order and fell into the sea and drowned themselves.
Afterwards, "Famine" also returned to Shao Yun's side.
For a moment, three Apocalypse horses surrounded Shao Yun on the beach. The terrifying aura around them gradually subsided, but they still exuded an awe-inspiring pressure.
Looking at the sea again, the flames gradually died down and the locusts disappeared without a trace, leaving only the wreckage of ships floating on the sea, the corpses of soldiers and the corpses of locusts covering the entire sea surface.
The air was filled with a strong smell of rust and the stench of rotting organisms, which made people want to vomit.
This sudden disaster in the human world swept away all the winter fleets that came from afar, leaving behind a devastating mess.
Alechino looked at the charred wound on his arm that was burned by the sparks, and he still felt a faint stinging sensation at the wound.
She raised her head and looked at Shao Yun with complicated eyes. She swallowed her saliva, but she couldn't suppress her curiosity and doubts in her heart, so she asked cautiously:
"Mr. Shao Yun, what kind of power was that just now?"
Shao Yun did not answer her question, but simply patted the neck of the Apocalypse horse "Plague" and advised in a calm tone:
"This power is not something you should inquire about, nor is it something you can touch."
"Take my advice and take the rest of the people away from Nata immediately. When you return, tell the Queen that I beat you up badly and that you were no match for me. This way, you can give her an explanation."
At this moment, the "fake" Capitano took a step forward according to the script that had been set long ago and stood in front of Arecino.
He gripped the long sword tightly in his hand, the tip of the sword drooping slightly, his tone full of "heroic" determination, and said in a loud voice:
"Alechino, Tartaglia, you guys go ahead and leave this to me. I'll stay and fight Shao Yun!"
"Our trip to Nata was a disastrous failure. We must give the Queen an explanation."
Alechino was stunned when he heard the "fake" Capitano's words full of justice.
This behavior of stepping forward and covering for companions is indeed in line with Capitano's usual style.
As the "captain" of the Fatui executive officers, he has always been known for his responsibility and strong strength.
But when he thought that his opponent was Shao Yun, Alechino couldn't help but feel nervous and stepped forward to dissuade him.
"No! You can't beat Shao Yun at all. Fighting alone is just suicide!"
"We lost so many people, it's enough to report back..."
No matter how powerful Capitano is, he has no chance of victory. Rather than sacrifice himself here in vain, it's better to leave together and discuss the matter of the Heart of God later.
"Fake" Capitano heard Alechino's dissuasion and asked meaningfully:
"We are all safe and sound, how can we report it?"
"This……"
Alechino was stunned for a moment, looking at the burning wound on her arm...
Indeed, so many people died, but our executives are all alive and well. Doesn't that mean we are deserting our posts?
"Fake" Capitano saw this and felt secretly relieved.
The script that I studied with Yuan Shang a few days ago really came in handy.
Then, he continued to recite the script word for word.
"I'm different from you. I'm cursed with immortality. Of all people, I'm the most suitable person to stay and fight."
He paused, glanced at Arlecchino and Tartaglia, and emphasized his tone.
"Listen, as the Fatui's first executor, it is my duty to serve the Queen and fight for my companions' survival. In this situation, I have no choice but to do my duty!"
After hearing this, Alechino was silent for a moment, then nodded slowly.
When she thought about it carefully, it was indeed as the "fake" Capitano said.
His immortal curse is his biggest advantage. Even if he cannot defeat Shao Yun, he can still deal with it with the help of the curse, while they are people without special abilities.
From this point of view, the "captain" is indeed the only one who can "arm wrestle" with Shao Yun.
Tartaglia stood aside. Although he felt that fighting with Shao Yun was very dangerous, he could not find a better way and could only acquiesce to the decision of the "fake" Capitano.
Seeing that Alechino and Tartaglia no longer objected, "Fake" Capitano slowly turned around and faced Shao Yun.
He lowered his head slightly and bowed respectfully to Shao Yun, but his tone maintained basic dignity.
"Mr. Shao Yun, I know I may not be your opponent, but I still want to challenge you."
"I hope to fight you one on one, and I hope that our fight will not affect the people of Nata."
The reason why he made this request was, firstly, to further shape the image of being "responsible", and secondly, to create a suitable environment for the subsequent "fake death".
After all, if a fight really breaks out, the truth will be revealed...
Shao Yun looked at the "fake" Capitano's meticulous performance and nodded secretly in his heart, but his face still maintained a cold expression.
Everything is progressing steadily according to plan. As long as the final "battle" is completed, this "fake death" drama will come to a perfect end.
"no problem."
At this time, Mavica came to her senses and rushed to Shao Yun who was riding the Apocalypse horse "Plague".
She said to the "fake" Capitano with some arrogance:
"No, Shao Yun shouldn't take on this battle! This is a dispute between Nata and the Fatui. It has nothing to do with Shao Yun. Your opponent should be me!"
Shao Yun looked at the conceited Mavica, gently pushed her away, and said firmly:
"My wife says I'm a tyrannical man, so, Mavica, you'd better wait for my triumphant return."
Seeing Shao Yun's decisive behavior, Mavica felt dazed for a moment...
Did that love that had become ashes seem to have rekindled? No, I clearly felt that we were just friends!
Why...why is my heart so weak...I've already decided to let it go, why do I still waver because of his words or actions...
This uncontrollable emotion made her panic and helpless.
