Chapter 3 — The Day the Unicorn Left
Mac Ly's face was expressionless. One by one, he broke my ribs and pulled them out. Blood flowed down his arm, dripping down the snake's tail. Every time he pulled one out, he used a white towel to wipe it clean and keep it in his chest. Twelve in total. My chest completely collapsed, my breathing became weak. The lungs lose their protective layer, and every breath brings blood bubbles out. Mac Ly let go of the snake's tail. I fell to the ground. He looked at the white ribs in his hand, the corners of his lips curled slightly.
“When To To sees this, he will definitely be very happy.”
"You're happy, I'm happy too."
He bowed his head and looked at me.
“You just lie here and rest.”
"Without your ribs, you won't be able to rely on your strength anymore."
“Learn to be soft, it will be good for you.”
Mac Ly turned and left. There was a rustling sound in the grass, the sound of him crawling away. I lay in a pool of blood, looking at the gray sky. The rain has stopped. But I know, my life is about to end. The feeling of life slipping away is extremely cold. I can no longer feel my limbs, I don't even feel pain anymore. Only the heart is beating weakly. The sky suddenly turned dark. A giant shadow fell. Eagle King Thuong Phong retracted his wings and landed on a large rock not far from us. 5 Of the four beastmen, he is the most rational and also the coldest-blooded. He didn't insult me like the previous three people, he just took out a clean cloth and spread it on the ground. Then come to my side and check the situation.
“Not completely dead yet, life force is indeed tenacious.”
His voice did not waver.
“Thuong Phong…”
I looked at him, the last ray of light in my eyes gradually fading.
“Are you coming... to send me on my way?”
Thuong Phong nodded, then shook his head again.
"To To doesn't have animal form and can't practice."
“In this world, it is difficult for females without strength to live long.”
“She is very insecure.”
He pulled out a curved hook-shaped knife from his side.
“Your unicorn inner pill contains divine power.”
"If you dig it out, refine it, and implant it into To To's body, it can help her regenerate her bones and become a god."
“You are already useless, keeping this internal pill is just a waste.”
I looked at the hook in his hand.
“That's my life.”
“I know.”
Thuong Phong sat down, pressing on my collapsed chest.
“But To To needs it more than you.”
"You are dead, just returning to heaven and earth."
“If you don't have strength, you will live a very miserable life.”
“As a goddess, sacrificing yourself to fulfill others, that is your responsibility.”
"Besides, with a broken body like yours now, living is just a sin."
“I am helping you escape.”
He said no more. The hook in my hand aimed straight at my heart, stabbing down forcefully. No anesthesia, no hesitation. The sound of metal tearing flesh and blood rang out. The hook inserted into the chest, hooking the internal pill lying under the beating heart. Pull it out hard.
“Phew—”
A pearl emitting pale yellow light was pulled out. At the same time, my heart was also torn apart. Thuong Phong picked up the internal pill and carefully wiped away the blood stains on it.
"The results are not bad, To To will definitely become the most perfect goddess."
He stood up, without looking at me again, directly raised his wings and soared into the air. Vision completely plunged into darkness. The body becomes light. I ignore suspended in mid-air, looking at the ruined body on the ground. His legs were twisted, his chest collapsed, and there was a large hole in front of his chest. This is the tribe I have protected for a hundred years, these are the four men I have loved for ten years. That's good. It's finally over. In my head, a mechanical sound suddenly rang out. 【Congratulations to the host, the goddess sacrifice plot has been completed!】 【The cruelty index has reached the standard, the hatred index has reached the standard.】 【The countdown to leave the beast world has begun, the one hundred billion pension has been transferred to the account!】 【Are you leaving immediately?】 6 I watched the backs of the four of them flying towards the tribe, the corners of my lips curled up into a smile. cold.
“Leave.”
“But before I go, I want to give them a big gift.”
As soon as I finished my confirmation, my soul immediately withdrew from this world. I stood before the giant light screen in the system space, looking down at the continent of the beast world below. Thuong Phong brought my internal pill back to the tribe. To To was lying on a bed covered with soft fur, her face was rosy, not at all like someone who had just been sick. As soon as she saw Thuong Phong walk in, she immediately sat up, her greedy eyes staring at the golden internal pill.
"Brother Thuong Phong, is this the unicorn internal pill? It's so beautiful!"
Thuong Phong gently gave her the internal pill.
“Swallow quickly.”
"With it, you are the new goddess."
Tieu Uyen, Loi Liet and Mac Ly also gathered next to the bed, their faces full of anticipation. To To opened his mouth and swallowed the Nei Dan pill that was still stained with my heart's blood. However, the moment the inner pill drifted down to his stomach— The clear blue sky was suddenly covered by dark clouds. A bolt of purple lightning hit the Totem pole in the middle of the tribe.
“Crack!”
The totem pole symbolizing the unicorn's protection immediately crumbled into ash. Next, the ground began to shake. The yellow barrier surrounding the tribe – once considered impregnable – burst like a soap bubble. The cheering beastmen stopped in fear.
"What's going on? Why did the barrier break?"
"Totem exploded! It's God's punishment! God's punishment!"
