Chapter 35 Sarah Who Never Dies
Chapter 35 Sarah Who Never Dies
"This? Take it."
Without the slightest hesitation, Fang Jianqiu drew a heavy revolver from his waist and handed it to Sarah with the handle facing forward.
This custom-modified heavy revolver is extremely heavy. With its all-steel body and extended barrel, it's difficult for an average person to hold with one hand, let alone use it in combat.
But in Sarah's hands, the black iron lump seemed weightless.
Her hand, so white it was almost blinding, looked soft and boneless, with slender, long fingers, creating a striking visual contrast with the rugged, dark, and violently aesthetic steel behemoth.
She flicked her wrist slightly.
The heavy revolver began to dance on her fingertips.
Without any fancy preparations, the gun began to spin rapidly around her index finger, and you could even hear the whooshing sound of the gun cutting through the air.
Finally, as she clasped her hands together, the spin came to an abrupt halt, and the gun handle landed steadily in her palm, the muzzle pointing diagonally at the ground. The entire movement was fluid and graceful, as if the gun itself were an extension of her body.
A true expert's skill is immediately apparent.
Seeing Sarah's relaxed and carefree movements, Fang Jianqiu's last trace of worry vanished.
"Captain, give me a question!"
Sarah turned slightly to the side, holding the gun naturally at her sides with one hand.
Although her posture was languid, the moment she gripped the gun, a sharp and dangerous edge suddenly appeared in her charming demeanor, like a dagger hidden in a velvet sheath.
"Hmm, no rush. Let's change how we address each other first. Don't call me Captain anymore, it sounds a bit strange."
As Fang Jianqiu spoke, he bent down and rummaged through the pile of rocks.
Hearing this, Sarah raised her beautiful eyebrows, and a smile returned to her emerald eyes:
"So, what would you like me to call you?"
She leaned forward slightly, lightly moistening her red lips with the tip of her tongue, her voice low and alluring: "Summoner? Boss?"
She paused deliberately, her eyes sparkling, her voice becoming even softer and more cloying:
"Or... Master? I can call you whatever you like~"
That alluring charm emanated from her very bones without any attempt to conceal it.
"Sigh, as expected of Lucky Girl, she's really good at flirting. If only the timing weren't so bad..."
Fang Jianqiu was somewhat helpless after being teased by Sarah without warning once again.
Even in a place where a dozen or so people had just died and the ground was littered with corpses, this woman's charm was still irresistible.
As a man full of energy and in his prime, it would be strange if he didn't react to the deliberate flirting of such a stunning beauty.
Some bold ideas naturally came to mind, and he didn't intend to suppress them.
"When the time is right, I'll definitely have to test your authenticity properly..."
"Ahem, let's be serious. My name is Fang Jianqiu. You can just call me by my real name."
Fang Jianqiu coughed lightly, forcibly shaking the romantic thoughts out of his mind and refocusing his attention on the important matter at hand.
Sarah looked at his serious expression, covered her mouth and chuckled softly, but the allure in her eyes remained undiminished.
"Fang Jianqiu...that's a really nice name."
She softly repeated the three words, her voice languid and magnetic, as if savoring some delicious treat.
"Then I'll call you Jianqiu from now on, okay?"
The sticky voice entered Fang Jianqiu's ears, like a feather gently tickling his eardrum. Fang Jianqiu nodded; it was just a form of address, nothing wrong with it.
In that very instant.
Without warning, Fang Jianqiu straightened up and swung his arm out suddenly.
"Shoot it down!"
He gave a soft shout, and a fist-sized rock that he had just picked up flew into the air with a whooshing sound.
The sudden order did not cause Sarah the slightest panic. Almost at the same time as Fang Jianqiu moved, the languid and alluring aura on her body instantly dissipated, replaced by efficiency and danger.
The heavy revolver in his hand was raised instantly.
"Bang!"
A loud bang.
The high-speed rock flying through the air shattered instantly, turning into a shower of stone dust.
The immense recoil caused the gun barrel to shoot upwards, and Sarah's impressive chest heaved violently with the shock, creating waves that combined with the smoke and gunfire, making her look both dangerous and deadly, yet damnably alluring.
"Heh, Jianqiu really is..." Sarah put down her gun, just about to make a joke.
However, Fang Jianqiu remained silent and launched another attack.
He swung his hand again, and this time, he threw out three or four stones in succession, each in a different direction and at an extremely fast speed.
Sarah's eyes narrowed, and her body twisted rapidly as if it were made of springs.
"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"
She swiftly turned the heavy hammer of the revolver, producing a firing rate comparable to that of an automatic pistol.
It's another single-action rapid-fire.
The four gunshots rang out almost in a single line.
All four rocks in the air were smashed to pieces, none of them escaped.
It was just that I wanted to talk to Fang Jianqiu, which caused this series of movements to be a little rushed and a little too large.
As the last shot rang out, a strand of wine-red hair fell down, slightly disheveled, onto her fair forehead.
"Yes, Sarah, you're amazing."
Fang Jianqiu threw away the remaining stones in his hand, dusted off his hands, stood up straight, and looked at them with admiration in his eyes.
This reaction speed and accuracy are definitely those of a top-notch marksman.
Sarah reached out and tucked a stray strand of hair behind her ear, her sharp gaze softening instantly.
She walked up to Fang Jianqiu, puffed out her chest, pressed her long legs together tightly, and pouted her red lips slightly:
"Jianqiu is so mean! I almost didn't react in time. It would have been so embarrassing if I had missed!"
She complained in a coquettish tone, her voice soft and sweet, showing no trace of the murderous intent she had displayed when she fired the gun.
Fang Jianqiu completely ignored her Versailles remarks.
If they all cried out that they almost didn't react in time, then the corpses of the riflemen on the ground would be brought back to life with rage.
He looked at Sarah and asked directly:
"Good luck... Sarah, what other skills do you have left? Now that you're in reality, can you still use those ultimate moves from the game?"
That's what he's most concerned about.
Sarah wasn't annoyed that he was so clueless; she simply crossed her arms over her chest, pressing her already surging weapon even more firmly into place, the curve of which was simply breathtaking.
She tilted her head, seemingly thinking seriously, and then said:
"Hmm... of course I can't unleash that kind of unscientific ultimate move, the barrage of comments. But..."
She paused, then calmly uttered an outrageous statement:
"They're immortal~"
Fang Jianqiu suddenly turned his head to look at her, his eyes full of doubt.
Immortal?
Seeing Fang Jianqiu's shocked expression, Sarah covered her mouth and giggled, explaining:
"Of course, it doesn't mean I'm invincible. If someone cuts me into eight pieces, I'll die, but... I can be resurrected."
Fang Jianqiu breathed a slight sigh of relief and nodded in agreement.
"Heroes will resurrect, it's like a countdown in the fountain, it makes sense. But how exactly does this resurrection mechanism work?"
He was about to ask for details when Sarah answered first:
"But this isn't like in games where you can revive in seconds! Every time you die, the resurrection time increases. The first time it's seven days, the second time it's thirty days... up to a year. So, Jianqiu, you still need to cherish me, otherwise Sarah will be very sad~"
Although resurrection is possible, the cost is considerable.
Fang Jianqiu looked intently into her eyes and replied decisively:
"I know, since you were summoned by me, you are mine! Of course I won't let you go to your death."
Upon hearing this, Sarah's emerald green eyes lit up instantly, as if she had spotted some satisfying prey.
She smiled, a smile that radiated from the depths of her heart, one of satisfaction and joy.
She laughed so hard her body trembled, her eyebrows curved into crescents, and her whole being radiated a charming and beautiful glow.
"I knew Jianqiu would be the most chivalrous woman."
She leaned closer, and the fragrance wafted over again:
"But don't worry, I'm not that easy to kill. Although I've lost all those fancy skills, I still have a bit of a hero's essence."
At this point, she winked mysteriously:
"That is... I take damage using a health bar, and this health bar can be quickly restored by consuming any nutrients."
After saying that, she licked her rosy lips meaningfully, and her gaze once again boldly fell on a certain indescribable part of Fang Jianqiu's body, her eyes gleaming.
Fang Jianqiu was completely flustered this time, and even ignored Sarah's extremely blatant and bold provocation.
His attention was completely drawn to the phrase "use your health bar to absorb damage".
He knew all too well what this meant.
In the real world, people are fragile. A bullet to the head will kill you, a bullet to the heart will kill you, a bullet to a major artery will kill you. Even if you don't die immediately, you will lose your fighting ability due to serious injury.
But with the "health bar mechanism," everything changes.
This means that Sarah does not have any physical organs in the conventional sense!
Even if someone shoots her in the head, as long as the damage doesn't deplete her health, she won't die and can even maintain her fighting ability and stay alive and kicking!
This is practically a humanoid Gundam!
