Myris sat upright at his desk, his dry and white eyes like a pool of stagnant water, calm and unwavering.

In front of him were filled with manuscripts and drawings, and not far away a bookcase was filled with all kinds of specimens.

The door to the room was opened.

Marcus, who was stitched together by various corpses and was large and ugly in appearance, cautiously walked into the room, glanced at his father, and sat quietly on the ground, without saying a word.

Myris turned his face to Marcus and whispered, "You're blaming me." ”

Marcus muttered under his breath.

Myris: "Don't forget, you wanted to keep her in the first place, and I always thought about how to get her away. ”

Marcus nodded, then shook his head vigorously.

Myris turned: "You should know that as long as Karin is alive, you can't leave her behind." Once the laryngeal bone comes back and finds her, I can't guarantee what will happen. ”

Marcus raised his arm and made a vicious fist swing.

Myris said helplessly: "Now is not the time to tear your face with your throat bone...... It's not just the laryngeal bones, we can't keep the living Karin in this place forever. As long as she goes out, whether it is the necromancers that fill the ground or the Imperials on the ground, they will tear her to shreds. ”

"Turning her into a necromancer and staying with us is the safest way to do it right now. But only if she has to give up her life. ”

Marcus was silent.

Myris let out a long sigh: "I know your feelings for her, which makes you unable to do it." I watched that child grow up, and I couldn't end her life with my own hands. ”

Myris's gaze gradually drifted, and the whole person fell into memory: "Marcus, I, an old man, still remember the time in the Monastery of San Cidlo. You were fourteen and Karin was eleven. You are like a brother who protects her whenever and wherever she is. ”

"When Karin is insulted, you stand up for her, and when Karin gets into trouble, you do everything you can to help her deal with the aftermath. Once, Karin stole Theodore's experimental material, a rabbit, and released it. Theodore was furious, hung Karin from a tree, subjected her to the sun and rain, and ordered that no one should let her down, do you remember what you did?"

At this point, there was a rare smile in Myris's words: "You grabbed ten rabbits full of hemp bags, threw them all into Theodore's laboratory as gifts of 'atonement'. Can you imagine? Ten bunnies filled with bags of hemp. Hahaha, I still remember the old guy Theodore that day, looking at his lab being flooded with hundreds of rabbits...... As a result, you are also hung by Theodore. ”

Marcus's body trembled slightly, as if he was also reminded of the past.

Myris slowly stopped smiling, looked at Marcus, and said word by word: "But, like you, you are unwilling to let her go, and you are unwilling to end her life. Sooner or later, one day, before she dies, she will go crazy first. ”

Marcus raised his head when he heard this, and kept gesturing with his hand in a hurry.

Myris waved his hand: "My son, the time has come to make a decision. Leave her alone, and you will kill her with your own hands, or you should set her free. ”

Marcus stopped, and the whole person froze there.

In the cell, Karin, sitting on the floor, was still drenched in shock and fear.

The old monk he knew when he was a child turned out to be the mastermind behind the black plague, and he was no longer even human, but a dead soul.

Karin clutched her arm hard, with only one thought in her head.

Everything you know here must be told to Todd.

Just as she was thinking hard, there was another sound of heavy footsteps in the corridor outside the door.

Recognizing the footsteps, Karin said to the door, "Why are you the only one?

Marcus opened the iron door and watched Karin say nothing.

Karin shifted back and whispered, "That bastard old man won't take matters into his own hands, so let his servants do these dirty things?"

Marcus took a step forward, looked at Karin's neck, and remained silent.

Karin moved back again, "Stay away from me!"

Marcus stretched out his huge arm and slowly approached Karin's neck.

Karin had no way to retreat, she raised her head and shouted, "I'd rather be burned to ashes in the fire than become a monster like you!"

Marcus's palm was five centimeters in front of Karin's neck, a creature that looked like a corpse stitching monster, and complex emotions slowly emerged in Karin's eyes.

Marcus grabbed Karin by the arm and pulled her up from the ground, then picked up the bread and sausage from the corner and strode out the door.

"Let go of me!!Where are you taking me?!"

Ignoring Karin's struggles and shouting, Marcus made a muffled voice as he walked down the aisle towards the exit.

Karin, who was pulled to her feet, stumbled forward.

Soon, she heard dense footsteps and shrill screams ringing in her ears.

She knew the voice.

The voice had been heard in the city of Taylor, coming from the tidal tide of parasitic corpses.

Marcus slowed his pace, looked at the parasitic corpses swarming at the end of the corridor, opened his mouth, and let out an earth-shattering roar.

The parasite's movements were stopped by a roar.

Some of the living corpses began to retreat, but more were attracted by the aura of the living on Karin's body, and gradually approached Marcus.

Marcus pulled Karin behind him, looked at one of the fastest parasitic corpses, grabbed the other's head, and pinched it lightly, shattering it in an instant.

Grabbing the limp parasite in his hands, Marcus threw it with all his might, knocking down a swath of enemies.

Kicking away the wriggling black parasites that had fallen to the ground, Marcus took a few steps back as he escorted Karin.

Soon, the second and third parasitic corpses attacked Karin.

Marcus stretched out his arm as thick as a tree trunk, and a faint purple flame suddenly rose above it.

With a strong swing outward, the purple flames instantly swelled, forming a huge wall of fire, burning straight along the road.

In an instant, nearly a hundred parasitic corpses were burned into piles of black coal.

Marcus turned, lifted Karin on his shoulders, stepped over the parasite remains on the ground, and walked briskly towards the exit.

In the darkness of the corridor, the figure of Myris slowly appeared.

He looked at the departing figures of Marcus and Karin, and whispered, "My child, when life and death meet, what will fate choose?"
