Chapter 489: Clever

This time, the girl was not as excited as before. Although she could tell that her eyes were full of hope, there was also obvious hesitation, and it was obvious that what had happened before made her suspect that Elliott was trying to trick her.

Elliott could easily read the girl's thoughts, but he still said nonchalantly, "Maybe I'm just teasing you, but my promise may be true." It's just a matter of one thought on my mind, but it's possible for you to try and live, but if you refuse, then you're really going to end up in a fire pit!"

"So, tell me now, do you want to try it again?" asked Elliot, staring at the girl with a smirk.

This time, the girl didn't hesitate any longer, because, as Elliott said, if she refused, then she really had to die!

"First of all, I want you to kill this child!" said Elliot, grinning, pointing abruptly at a young boy who looked no more than three or four years old.

Seeing the intense look of disbelief on the girl's face, Elliot chuckled lowly, "Indeed, it was just a poor little child, and had no grudge against you, but for now, I will let you kill him!

Of course, you can also choose to refuse, and as for the consequences of refusal, you are clear. With that, Elliot turned to one of the Guardians of the Holy Sepulchre, "Give her a dagger." ”

At Elliott's orders, the Guardian of the Holy Sepulchre took out a white dagger from the Star Ring between his fingers and threw it in front of the maiden.

Although the current Order of the Guardians of the Holy Sepulchre, due to the rapid large-scale expansion, it is full of miscellaneous fish, but the people who can follow Elliott are all old members from the early days, and they are all elites above the fourth order! So it is not surprising that this Holy Sepulchre Guardian has the Star Ring. As for the dagger he took out, it wasn't a bargain, it was just a gold-level dagger! Although a mortal girl could not exert the power of a gold-level weapon, its sharpness alone could easily pierce ordinary steel!

The girl stared at the dagger on the ground, her face changed for a while, and after about two minutes, the girl still trembled and bent down and picked up the dagger from the ground!

"What are you going to do?!" Seeing that the girl was holding a dagger, turning her head, and staring at her son with complicated eyes, the little boy's father suddenly turned sideways in front of the little boy, staring at her sternly and scolding. But now the little boy's father has his hands tied, and he can only expose his chest to the girl, but he can't pose any threat to the girl, and he can't stop her movements!

"Please, don't hurt my child, he's only a child of three or four years old!" The little boy's mother, an ordinary-looking young woman, knelt down in front of the maiden, and kept kowtowing, and soon her forehead was a bloody blur!

As for the boy himself, he did not understand that he was now in a very dangerous situation. His hands were tied like any other captive, but he didn't understand what it meant, and he even found it amusing, shaking his bound hands happily at his parents or the people next to him. He even tried to nibble on the tendons that bound him, and only stopped doing so when he realized that it wasn't something delicious.

At this time, seeing his father suddenly block in front of him, his tall back cast a large shadow completely blocking his vision, which made the little boy shake his bound hands in dissatisfaction, rubbing the roots of the other party's thighs slightly. As for his mother's movements, he was confused, but at the same time he found them quite interesting, so he also learned his mother's movements, knelt on the ground and kowtowed. However, because his mother's hands were tied behind his back, and his hands were tied in front of him, his forehead could not touch the ground, only the back of his own hand.

The little boy is just playing with all kinds of movements inexplicably, not making a pleasant, childlike laugh - I have to say, sometimes naïve, but not a kind of happiness......

It can be seen that the girl's body is trembling uncontrollably, trembling for some reason, fear, guilt, or some other reason, but no matter what, the girl finally approaches the little boy step by step.

At this time, the girl's mother suddenly fell to her knees in the direction of the little boy and his parents, and kept kowtowing heavily, and at the same time said loudly: "I'm sorry, it's my daughter who is sorry for you! But I really can't watch my daughter die! No matter what kind of injustice this will cause, if it will make the soul unable to rest because of this, if it will be punished by the Holy King...... Let me, as a mother, bear all this! Even if I am sent to hell after I die, even if my soul will never have peace!"

The girl's mother soon cracked her forehead, and the bright red blood stained the large sand and gravel, but none of the Roland captives around her were moved by her actions, and even all of them distanced herself from her with complicated, even disgusted, expressions, which made the girl's mother's place vacant in an instant. But at the same time, no one said anything, and some parents even reached out to cover their children's mouths, and they looked at the girl with a wary look, fearing that they would inadvertently bring disaster to themselves.

The maiden naturally noticed her mother's actions, and she did not say anything, and at the same time she noticed the small movements of the other captives, to which the corners of her mouth raised a clear sneer.

Surprisingly, the girl did not walk directly to the little boy, but strangely approached the little boy's father, and leaned so close that it looked like she was going to stick herself to the other party!

Maybe she wanted to say something to the boy's father, like expressing her guilt or something?

But the next moment, the girl's actions shocked everyone - just in an instant, the dagger in the girl's hand stabbed into the chest of the little boy's father, and completely submerged in it!

"You?!"

The boy's father instinctively used his right shoulder to slam the girl away, and his body fell to the ground unbalanced. At this time, a large amount of blood flowed from the chest of the boy's father, as well as from the corners of his mouth, mixed with blood blisters from time to time. The boy's father glared at the girl with angry eyes, but he couldn't say a word, because if he opened his mouth, more blood would spill out of it!

"Ahh

"This is?!"

"How so?!"

"That adult didn't ask her to kill the boy's father?!"

When the other Roland captives saw this scene, they were also extremely shocked and puzzled! For a while, many prisoners screamed incessantly, and this bloody scene, especially caused by one of their own people, who was also a captive, plunged all of their heads into great confusion.

"Ah, a clever choice!" said Elliot, who had been standing by and watching all this, laughing with great pleasure, "It seems that you have made up your mind to kill the little boy! Not only that, but you also want to kill the little boy's parents with you! After all, they are now bound and have no power to resist you, although I have not made such a request." ”

"But that's really the choice of smart people, isn't it?" Elliott mentioned the word 'smart' again, and there was obvious appreciation in his tone, "Since you have decided to kill that little boy, then you and the little boy's parents will naturally become mortal enemies who can never be resolved!

Hearing Elliott's words, the girl trembled suddenly, but she did not veto it, which was considered to be a disguised admission to the other party's speculation.

"Demons!"

"That's right, it's completely inhuman!"

"Not only do you want to kill an innocent child in vain, but you even want to kill his parents because you are afraid of retribution from his parents in the future?

The Roland captives, who had come to their senses, immediately raised their voices against the girl, and even the girl's mother was shocked to see the boy's father, who had fallen to the ground in blood, as if she could not believe what she had seen.

"Hmph-"

Listening to the invective from all around, the girl suddenly let out a cold snort full of sneer, and as the girl raised her head and looked around at the captives around her, no one dared to meet her cold gaze, including a few of the awakened ones!

Seeing these people react like this, the sarcastic arc at the corner of the girl's mouth became more and more obvious. Then she stopped looking at them, only to see her bend down and pull out the dagger that had been stuck in the chest of the boy's father, and let the hot blood splash her face.

Looking at the little boy's father, who was glaring at her viciously, the girl smiled coldly and placed the dagger on the neck of the little boy's father. And this suddenly caused the little boy's father's pupils to shrink sharply, and the anger in his eyes suddenly turned into endless fear and silent pleading!

"Don't!" the little boy's mother shouted in horror.

"Poof-" But the girl didn't hear the pleading of the little boy's mother, and when she pulled hard, the little boy's father's neck was suddenly cut open with a bright red and huge wound!

"Yes, that's what it is—even if you stab a man in the chest, he won't necessarily die, but if you cut the other person's neck, he'll almost certainly die!" Elliott commented again.

But his voice, which fell on the ears of the other Roland captives, was like a hypnotic bell, making them tremble for a while!

"Poof-" "Poof-"

Immediately afterwards, the girl neatly slashed the little boy's mother with a dagger, as well as the little boy's own neck.

At this time, the early morning sun sprinkled down from the sky, dispelling the strange fog on the surface of Devil's Lake, but it could not dispel the fear in the hearts of the Roland captives. The sight of the girl standing alone with a blood-dripping dagger, and the sight of three bloodied, dead bodies of a family of three lying beneath her was destined to be an eternal nightmare for the rest of their lives—if they were lucky enough to live......
