Chapter 69: Failure
With Motley, everyone is not familiar with it, even Tetsu is not clear, he has already fought this guy in the Battle of Prince Airport, and he only won narrowly. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info But the most important thing at the moment is actually the last difficult battle that should belong to the next.
The leader of the Magma Star People, Loerlik, personally took action, although it is not clear what his specific combat strength is, but just having the position of the head of the Magma Star Race is already something that people dare not underestimate. What's more, the news brought back by Naios so definitely shows that Lollik's combat effectiveness also makes Tetsuya a little unconfident.
King Ars was in the middle of his journey, which was a good thing, but if he didn't arrive at the start of the campaign, then everything would have to be said.
Thinking of this, Tetsuya's gaze fell on Astra and said, "Astra... Lion's Pupil, do you want to try again? ”
Leo looked at Astra with concern, who bowed his head slightly, a little silent.
He had tried to wear the Lion's Eyes, but it was undoubtedly a failure, and it was a great blow to his self-confidence.
Recalling the first time he wore it, Astra's back was a little cold, and he understood from that moment why there was a royal bloody night. That kind of power is really not something that humans can control, and it is far from alarmist that Gaunt fell into madness after wearing it, and many of his clansmen died after wearing it.
At first, in the darkness, he only saw a pair of blood-colored eyes, and he couldn't see the huge body clearly, but the momentum was pressing towards him like a mountain. At that time, Astra only felt as if her neck was being choked by a pair of invisible palms, and it was difficult to breathe. Under the gaze of those blood-colored eyes, he couldn't hold on for even half a minute, so he hurriedly lowered his head, and the fear lingered in his heart for a long time.
Tetsuya's expectations can also be understood, after all, there is going to be a big war, and the emergence of one more huge combat power may have a great impact on the entire situation.
But...
He clenched his fists, and the reason in his heart made him promise that he must continue to try. But deeper down, fear forced him to speak.
was hesitating, but Leo on the side patted him on the shoulder, "Astra, if you don't want to, don't force it." ”
"And Master Tetsuya, and me, and my father... There must be no problem! ”
Astra raised her head and looked at Leo in a daze, and after a long silence, she suddenly let out a long breath, "Let me try again..."
Leo's words of comfort did make Astra's heart warm, but they also made him finally make such a decision.
All along, it was his father and brother who stood in front of him and sheltered himself from the wind and rain. However, at the critical moment when the entire L77 Nebula was facing life and death, he simply could not bear the responsibility of being a royal family, which Astra was unwilling to do. He wanted to grow up to be like his father and brother, and he didn't want to run away from it like he used to.
So, he looked at Tetsuya and said, "Let me try again!" ”
Tetsuya looked at his eyes carefully, then nodded, and placed the lion's pupil in his palm.
All along, Tetsu has been keeping this lion's pupil. He wouldn't covet this treasure that belonged to Leo and Astra.
If you really want to try, you can't do it here, so the three of them came to a safe place together, and they scattered.
Unconsciously, Astra's palm holding the lion's pupil was already sweating, and he slowly put the lion's pupil on his finger as if he was in the face of a great enemy.
In a moment, his consciousness was quickly taken to a black space, where he could not see his fingers, and the boundless cold swept in all directions. However, after all, it was the second attempt, and Astra was not as flustered as the first time, but slowly calmed down his mood, and his breathing slowed down little by little.
However, the next moment, his breathing suddenly became rapid, and the whole person took a few steps back, his eyes looking at the pupil that suddenly appeared high in the dark space.
It was a pair of prismatic pupils, with a violent and blood-colored light, so terrifying, that the powerful momentum instantly swept through the entire space. Astra gritted his teeth, forcing himself not to flinch, his eyes trying to meet the blood-colored eyes, but only a moment later, he turned his head.
Still is... Still doesn't work...
He sat down on the ground, shivering unconsciously as if he had been fished out of water.
The pupils of those eyes got closer and closer, and slowly walked towards him, and the momentum like a tide gradually submerged him, and his throat was once again choked by that invisible force, and Astra retreated in horror.
As if a big hand was coming towards him, Astra couldn't hold back any longer, and just wanted to scream, but at this time, a warm light shrouded him, and everything in the dark space in front of him disappeared in an instant, as if it was just an illusion.
"Astra... Are you okay? ”
Leo helped Astra to the side, and in just a moment, his brother's shirt was already soaked with sweat, and it was hard to imagine what he had seen.
If he hadn't hurriedly released the warm light in the lion's pupil just now, pulling Astra's consciousness back, Leo would have been worried about whether he would lose his brother because of this.
"Master Tetsuya... Forget it..."Astra's consciousness was already unconscious, Leo carefully helped him to sit, took off the lion's pupil from Astra's finger, and looked at Tetsuya.
"Still can't make it..."Tetsuya sighed, a slight disappointment on his face.
"There's my father, and we... It's no problem to defeat that Lohrik..."Leo tried to convince Tetsuya.
"Really," Tetsuya sighed lightly and said nothing more.
If only it were that simple... They don't just have to deal with the Magma people, but also the second personality.
Tetsuya has dealt with him so much, and he knows very well what kind of guy he is, and what he is best at is taking advantage of the situation and playing with people's hearts. I'm afraid that the real boss to face is not as simple as Lohrik...
"Then let's do this for the time being..."Tetsuya nodded, and could only keep his worries in his heart for the time being, and did not force anything more.
"Give—" Leo handed over the lion's pupil in his palm.
"Just put it in Astra's..."Tetsuya shook his head, he still hadn't given up on the idea of Astra's transformation.
"It's something that belongs to him, and it's never been a problem for me."
"Although Astra can't control this power now, maybe one day it will actually grow to this point... At that time, the existence of the lion's pupil was also a guarantee for him. ”
Leo was silent, and it only took a moment to understand what Tetsuya meant.
Tetsuya couldn't say it so obviously, but he vaguely expressed his worries.
The next war must be very difficult, and no one can say whether he will be able to save Astra at that time. Whether or not Astra can master this power, it could be his hole card to save his life.
"That's... So be it..."Looking at his unconscious brother, Leo nodded helplessly.
Watching Tetsuya leave, Leo sighed, he didn't want Astra to suffer these hardships, after all, it was just a child who hadn't grown up yet.
But growth is something Astra has to face...
That's it... Let Astra choose.
He found a red rope, strung the lion's pupil on it, and hung it around Astra's neck.
