Chapter 274 Galle
Chapter 274 Galle
Ronnie stood there blankly for a long time, looking up at Salman's skull that was so familiar to him. He had never wanted Salman to be mean to him again, to speak his exaggerated and neurotic words, to come close to him, and to hug his thighs and howl.
However, no matter how long Ronnie waits, Salman’s demise is a foregone conclusion, and Ronnie today cannot change that.
What Salman’s death means is that there will be no soul nourishment, and the sacred tree will wither rapidly over time, and eventually it will no longer be able to protect the disaster clan.
Both Soros and Set are well aware of this.
However, Ronnie couldn't think about what would happen to the disaster clan later. At this moment, his emotions that had set up layers of protection had become fragmented. Not only that, his own assimilation degree was also rising rapidly.
If it weren't for the rules of this world that suppressed all of Ronnie's power and also inhibited Chaos' assimilation of him, otherwise, under these repeated shocks, he would have long since turned into a crazy, distorted beast.
Taking a deep breath, Ronnie finally turned around and left.
I came to the central barrier of the shield and planned to check on Gala.
Along the way, Ronnie kept thinking about this cheerful, enthusiastic and somewhat talkative girl, wondering what she is like now in this world full of despair.
At this time, Galar was also using his soul and life to maintain the power to protect the disaster clan.
But compared to the now deceased Salman, she is in a better state now, but only slightly.
Her originally slim and plump body had become shriveled, and her fair face, which she was most proud of, had now become extremely old. The wrinkles on her face were full of vicissitudes brought by the years. Not only that, her dazzling golden hair had turned dry and gray due to the severe consumption of her soul and life, and her time was running out.
When Ronnie found her, she was holding a watering can and taking care of some green plants carefully.
In order to maintain the shield wholeheartedly and avoid distractions, Gal is usually alone. In order to relieve boredom, she has to plant some plants.
The reason why Soros asked Ronnie to find Galak was mainly to let Galak have no regrets. After all, in an ending that is destined to be destroyed, there is no point in advancing or delaying it for a few days.
"Gal."
Hearing someone calling her name, Gal turned her head and when she saw Ronnie, her pupils couldn't help but tremble.
"Ronnie..."
When Gal touched Ronnie's face with her trembling dry hands, she was sure that it was really Ronnie in front of her. Therefore, she quickly withdrew her hand and ran away in a hurry. She didn't want Ronnie to see her ugly self now.
However, Ronnie was quick to grab her wrist and pull her back.
It would be better if Ronnie held her in his arms at this moment, but some kind of inner insistence made him unwilling to betray Soros, even though if Ronnie did so, it would be what Soros wanted to see, and Soros in the original world didn't know it either.
"Don't look." Gal raised his hand to cover his old face. "I'm too ugly now."
"Gal, I..."
Ronnie gently held Gal's hand that was covering his face and slowly moved it away.
"I don't care what your appearance has become."
Ronnie reached out and tried to touch Gal's face, but stopped himself.
Looking at Ronnie's conflicted expression and the words he just said, even though Gal knew that the Ronnie in front of her was not the Ronnie in her memory, she could not suppress her outburst of emotions.
Tears gathered in his eyes, but in the end, Gal held them back.
After sniffing, Gal showed the silly smile that Ronnie was familiar with, and spoke in a joking tone.
"That's good. I thought you would dislike me because my breasts have shrunk and are no longer as pretty as before."
Gal's voice was hoarse, and although his words were casual, Ronnie could still hear the loneliness in them.
As if to cover up his current emotions, Galar turned around and took two small stools. These two small stools were crooked in shape and were made by Galar himself.
Although it was very uncomfortable for Ronnie to sit on this small bench given his current dragon-like appearance, he still sat down.
Seeing this, Gala, who was standing by, also smiled.
"How is it? My craftsmanship is pretty good, right? I made these two small stools myself."
Hearing this, Ronnie just smiled and nodded.
After that, Gal kept talking about his efforts, looking very proud and asking for praise. He didn't mention a word about his own imminent demise and the impending destruction of the world.
Gal has been telling as many interesting stories as possible about the past few years. What she is thinking now is that even though her appearance has become ugly, Dina doesn't want Ronnie to hate the original Gal because of her. She wants Ronnie to still think of her as the sunny and cheerful beauty.
Ronnie listened quietly, occasionally responding to Gal.
Suddenly, the shield flickered, and Gal's face turned pale. "It seems my time is up." Gal said softly, with no fear of death in his eyes, only deep reluctance to leave Ronnie.
Ronnie's heart tightened and he wanted to do something, but he was powerless.
Knowing that Gal didn't have much time, Ronnie asked the question he had been avoiding before, with trembling lips.
"Why? I rejected you a long time ago, why are you still so persistent? You have many better candidates, why did you choose me?"
Hearing this, Gal was stunned at first, then he smiled freely.
"Well, you're talking about this."
Galle's words were tinged with emotion.
"Maybe it was love at first sight, or maybe I was attracted by your personality. Well, the most important thing is that you are very handsome, which suits my aesthetic taste."
As he said this, Galen covered his face in embarrassment.
"You say that as if I'm some big pervert."
After hesitating for a while, Gal put down his hand and showed a smile that was exactly the same as before, but even brighter in Ronnie's eyes.
"Maybe the more important thing is that you are the man I've chosen... er, male dragon? Never mind, it doesn't matter. Anyway, it's enough for you to know that I like you."
Ronnie listened to what Gal said, and his throat seemed to be choked by something. He opened his mouth, but found that thousands of words were stuck in his heart and he couldn't say them.
"Gal, actually I..." Ronnie was about to say something, but Gal raised his hand to stop him.
"I'm not saying this to get you to respond to me. I'm just speaking my true thoughts."
After saying that, Gal yawned and leaned into Ronnie's arms.
"Ronnie, I'm tired. Can you carry me back to rest?"
"Ah."
Ronnie responded softly, picked up Gala and walked to a house not far away. After gently placing her on the bed, Ronnie stood for a long time.
Looking at Galen who had her eyes closed and seemed to be fast asleep, Ronnie leaned over and kissed her on the forehead.
Just as Ronnie turned and was about to leave, Gal spoke again.
"Ronnie, promise me one thing. Don't hate the other Gal because of who I am now, okay?"
"it is good."
After he finished speaking, Ronnie left the place, leaving behind Gal who fell asleep with a peaceful smile.
After this sleep, neither Ronnie nor Gal himself knew whether they would wake up.
