Viego in Arknights

BOOM—!!

The explosion occurred not far in front of Viego, hitting the clustered Caster squad dead on. But Viego felt no joy at the direct hit. Because a second before W's grenade hit the Casters, Viego saw a thick rock wall rise around them. And from the power of the previous grenade explosion, it was feared that it would be very difficult to penetrate this rock wall.

And the facts proved it to be so. The fire and dust from the explosion dissipated, and the tall, dark gray rock wall still stood, just with a large explosive crater that had failed to break through it.

"This is getting a little difficult…"

Viego dodged the Sarkaz mercenary's longsword clumsily. The tip of the longsword had already torn through his already tattered clothes, turning them completely into battle-damaged rags. It seemed there was a Caster in their team who specialized in casting protective spells, precisely to prevent W from launching a sneak attack from hiding.

But the thick rock wall also blocked Viego's path.

Viego could feel the Ruination within his body. This thing was now like his health bar and stamina bar combined. Whether it was using the Black Mist, engaging in strenuous activity, or being injured, it would cause the Ruination within him to grow weaker.

Just like an Ultraman whose color timer was already starting to flash red, he didn't have much time left.

Viego gritted his teeth, noticing that in the distance, more Sarkaz warriors were already returning from the other side of the camp to reinforce.

"W—" Viego pulled out the dagger at his waist and shouted loudly, "Another shot!!"

There was no response from W's direction. Viego's heart sank. That's right, it makes no sense for the enemy to ignore a clearly massive threat like W's long-range heavy firepower... that woman is probably already in a tough fight herself.

Or… she just abandoned me and chose to leave the battlefield...?

With no time to think, Viego, holding his dagger, rushed into the embrace of a Sarkaz mercenary warrior, plunging the Black-Mist-infused dagger into his body, and then dispatched another mercenary in the same fashion. The most twisted thing about the Black Mist in actual combat was that as long as Viego could create a deep enough wound on any part of the enemy's body, he could directly kill the enemy from inside their own body.

As long as the enemy had no intel, they would naturally not specifically guard against this point, making it a sinister and vicious move that could score a first-encounter kill!

But the biggest problem now was that Viego couldn't break through this rock wall's defense. The Ruination within him was too weak, allowing him to use only a very shallow sliver of the Black Mist, at most enchanting the weapon in his hand. Even so, he had to turn it on and off, afraid that if it was on for too long, it would drain his "life essence."

At this moment, a belated grenade cut through the night sky, landing precisely on the impact point of the previous explosion.

BOOM—!!

A small hole was blasted into the rock wall!

Viego glanced in the direction the grenade had come from but saw only a patch of dark woods. With no time to worry, he used his dagger as an ice pick, jammed it into the rock wall, and forcibly climbed to the position of the hole. The hole was very small, barely enough to fit two fingers inside, but it did indeed expose the Caster squad behind the wall.

For Viego, this was enough.

Damn it… after this is over, I'm definitely going to make that foul-mouthed crazy woman let me suck on her for a whole day!

Viego desperately squeezed the Ruination from his body, like a cotton plantation owner whipping a slave, causing wisps of thin Black Mist to continuously pour out from the inverted triangle hole in his chest and through the hole in the rock wall. The Black Mist drilled into the body of the Caster closest to Viego, brutally scrambling his brain into a mess.

The death of the enemy brought life essence to the Ruination, making it a little stronger, allowing Viego to extend the reach of the Black Mist again, killing the remaining Casters one after another. The solid rock wall became their cage. The Caster who had created the wall didn't even have time to cancel his own spell before his brain was viciously crushed by the Black Mist.

There's a joke: a rich second-generation kid hired seven prostitutes to accompany him on a seven-day trip to Hainan. On the first day, he was refreshed and full of spirit. On the seventh day, he was skin and bones with sunken eyes. He thought it would be awesome, but he didn't expect to be completely squeezed dry.

Viego's current situation was very similar to the rich second-generation kid in that joke. His face was ashen, his body was weak, as if he only had one breath left. He fell powerlessly from the rock wall, landing on his back, feeling that at most he only had the strength to turn over and sit up.

Don't move, don't move. He was afraid that if he moved even a little more, he would explode. He could only hope that W would be a bit more effective, either finishing off the enemy before he exploded, or quickly coming over to let him suck a few mouthfuls to recover some health...

The continuous sound of explosions echoed in Viego's ears. A few moments later, there was the sound of unhurried footsteps, of long boots treading on the ground. Viego turned his head slightly, his eyes swiveling, and saw two slender, straight little legs wrapped in black stockings, wearing thick-soled military boots.

"Seeing you still have time to look at black stockings, I'm relieved." Words filled with W's signature sarcasm came from above his head.

She crouched down, bringing her face into Viego's view, looking down at him. "Viego, still say you're not a perverted leg-fetishist?"

"W, I'm dying," Viego said, looking at the white-haired, red-eyed woman. "I used up all my strength in that last fight."

"..." W was silent for a moment. She looked at Viego's ashen skin, which looked like that of a living dead man, and the smile on her face disappeared. "What, do you have any last words?"

"I do." Viego's voice was hoarse. He nodded with difficulty.

"If you're dying, then don't f*cking move." W frowned, looking at him impatiently. "If you have something to say, say it quickly. You'll probably run out of breath halfway through."

"I have a request… a very important request." Viego looked at those golden-red eyes that showed no emotion.

An ominous premonition rose in W's heart. "What request? If you dare to say you want to be stepped on to death by me, I'll kill you right now!"

Viego raised his hand, trembling.

"...You there? Let me touch your leg."

"?" W froze for a moment, then shouted angrily, "Viego, so you're f*cking with me!"

"No, I'm not playing with you, W. Men and women should keep their distance. Watch your words, don't sully my innocence." Viego sat up. "Also, I'm serious. If you're willing, it would be best if you took off your stockings before letting me touch."

That way, the efficiency of absorbing the fragment's power would be at its highest.

Actually, Viego had felt it the moment W got close to him. The Ruination within his body was slowly absorbing power and growing strong again. Although the absorption speed wasn't as fast as direct physical contact with W, it was definitely "sucking" something. Otherwise, Viego would have directly grabbed her leg and started sucking the moment she got close. Where would he have found the mood to tease her like just now?

But, why could he "suck" her this time without making physical contact?

Because we fought together once, so she trusts me more?

Could it be that this fragment-eating business has a favorability bonus? Is the Ruination that smart?

Viego was a little puzzled, but he had always been open-minded about problems that couldn't be solved by overthinking, so he quickly stopped thinking about it.

"Viego, you're okay now?"

"Yeah, I won't die for now."

W picked up the dagger on the ground and gave Viego a brilliant smile.

"Then how about I let you die one more time?"
