Slime's Evolutionary Journey

Putting on his casual clothes, Tao quickly left the palace with the convenience of his identity, but he also knew that soon his father would be angry at his departure, and his brother would also send people to chase him.

After passing through the bustling city, Tao got on a carriage and rushed to the suburbs quickly.

It was still the familiar road and the familiar street scene, but Tao was getting more and more uneasy!

The girl has occupied Tao's whole heart. What will happen to him if something happens to her? Tao didn't think about it anymore, and he didn't dare to think about it anymore.

The carriage was getting closer and closer to the grove, and the surrounding area was getting brighter and brighter. When I raised my head and looked up, not far away, there was fire all over the sky! The direction of the fire came from the woods that Tao had often visited over the years!

"My lord (adult noble young masters are called lords), the forest ahead is on fire, and we can't go any further!" The groom reined in his horse and stopped a hundred meters away from the sea of ​​​​fire.

The mountain fire is getting stronger and stronger, and even if you are a hundred meters away from the sea of ​​​​fire in front of you, you can feel the sweeping heat wave!

Tao dropped a gold coin, which would save the groom from soliciting customers for two months.

"My lord!"

Before the horseman could react, Tao dropped the gold coins and jumped out of the carriage, running wildly into the sea of ​​fire. The kind-hearted horseman got out of the car and tried to stop him, but he was already old and how could he outrun the man in his early twenties? Where's the young man? Because of the heat wave, the horses did not dare to move forward.

It wasn't until Tao really rushed into the burning sea of ​​​​fire that the groom quickly took off his carriage and rode towards the city. It was definitely not a small matter for a well-dressed nobleman to rush into the sea of ​​​​fire. He had to inform this matter.

"Benihime! Benihime! Where are you! Benihime!"

Tao shouted loudly in the forest where the fire was raging. The trees were burned to the point of crackling. The originally green trees were all covered with the gift of the fire god Hertos. Burnt and blackened trees continued to fall down. Once Once again, it fell at Tao's feet.

The woods covered with flames had been burned beyond recognition, and Tao, who was most familiar with the woods, also lost his way, but he walked deeper and deeper into the woods! Tao's screams became louder and louder.

Thick smoke kept choking his throat, and his face and body felt extremely hot. The most uncomfortable thing was his throat! Black smoke kept breathing into his body, making it increasingly difficult to breathe.

Due to lack of oxygen, he began to feel dizzy, and his consciousness became increasingly blurred. The scenery in front of him became increasingly blurry, his screams began to become smaller and smaller, his steps began to stagger, and he even had to fall on the fire tree several times. !

"Beniji."

Finally, Tao fell to the ground. At this moment, the prince who had been pampered since childhood was not thinking about his own death, but whether he could see that girl again.

Maybe it was just when he thought he would never see her again that he realized how inseparable he was from her.

"Beniji."

The last cry came out as weakly as a breath. Just when he was about to close his eyes, he seemed to see the red-haired girl gently stroking the hem of her skirt, squatting in front of him with her long skirt tightly held between her calves.

It's just that her dress is a little tattered, and her body has scars one after another that are as deep as the gears.

The girl looked directly at him, her red eyes still so beautiful, but they were no longer as cold as when they first met her.

He couldn't help but think of the question he asked a few years ago:

Do machines really have no emotions? If the mechanical species really have no emotions, then why are the mechanical species called an intelligent race?

This question had always troubled him. When he first got along with her, his cold expression, indifferent eyes, and mechanical answers made Tao think that the robots might really have no emotions.

But gradually, her eyes began to change quietly. Although she was still so indifferent, she also began to have natural questions about the things around her. She began to care about things and like things. She began to understand Feeling self-blame, she may even ask "don't leave" in the end.

At this moment, Tao understood that although the machine was a machine and had no real flesh and blood, she was still a "human"!

"Beniji."

Looking at the fantasy in front of him, he closed his eyes quietly with a smile. Even if it was just a fantasy, if he could see her at the last moment, everything would be worth it.

"Master! Master!"

Just when Tao completely lost consciousness, there were waves of worried shouts in his ears!

The next moment, Tao felt himself being carried on someone's back. The temperature around him began to drop, and the air became moist and cool.

"Ahem!"

When he returned from the edge of death, he coughed violently. When he opened his eyes, he realized that he was a hundred meters high in the sky, and there was a sea of ​​fire under his feet! The entire forest was burning under his feet, and the firelight illuminated a hundred miles in radius. It was beautiful, but suffocating.

"Master, you're awake, are you okay?" A soft voice floated in the air, and the cool night breeze in the sky made Tao wake up completely. Only then did he realize that he was being suspended in the air on Hong Ji's back.

Her dress was somewhat tattered, exposing her snow-white skin, and she had several deep wounds on her body. Although the mechanical species had no blood or bones, Fangte could see the gears in it from her deep wounds!

On her snow-white thighs, Fangte found that the fair and well-proportioned thighs revealed a blue color! This is a sign that the magic is flowing out of the broken pipes in the body.

Seeing the beautiful red-haired girl in front of him covered in bruises, Tao's heart twisted and he clenched his fists in self-reproach.

If it weren't for herself, Hongji wouldn't have suffered this kind of pain! If I had secretly sent Hong Ji away, what happened today would not have happened. Everything was my fault!

"Master." A soft moan woke up Tao, who was deeply guilty. "Master, will you blame Hong Ji?"

Looking at the girl in front of him, Tao stretched out his hand and stroked her long hair tremblingly.

The only one he blames is himself, so how can he blame her? What reason do I have to blame her?

"Some powerful people came just now and said they wanted to send Hong Ji away, but Hong Ji didn't want to leave, so she started fighting with them." Hong Ji lowered her head and sounded quite self-blame, "Hong Ji If you don’t obey me, will Master blame Hong Ji?”

"How could it be?" Tao said softly, enduring his heartache, "No matter when it is, no matter what Hong Ji does, I will never blame Hong Ji."

"But those people were too strong. Hong Ji accidentally erased them. Hong Ji didn't want to erase them. Hong Ji"

Before she finished speaking, Tao's broad palm gently touched her head. Hong Ji's eyes lit up and she felt that her core was so warm.

"Hongji, let's go home."
