Chapter 457: The Gamble Before the "Death Seal".
Although Lucia's knowledge of the "Death Seal" is limited to books, her knowledge is also more erudite than that of ordinary magicians
"I know the knowledge very well. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info" Xuanyu said with a smile of approval.
"Remember to use a ghost with familiarity!" Lucia said worriedly, "According to the theory, one of us has to die before we can enter the Akulan Garden. ā
"I really have ......to die," Xuanyu paused and said, "You just said that this move is insidious, do you know who invented such a move?" ā
"I don't care who invented it, it's not a good thing." Lucia said.
"You know that most of the magic spells in the world were invented by humans, because they don't have these abilities themselves, so they work hard to learn and invent. In the wizarding world, the so-called rules and bottom lines are set by humans themselves, but these rules are only for the purpose of restraining others. Xuanyu said something irrelevant inexplicably, "Yes, it's true that a person is going to die!" ā
Xuanyu's words didn't sound to Lucia, but she always felt that she was inextricably linked to the core. Looking at the calmness on his face, he guessed that the other party had a way to deal with it.
"So what?" Lucia teased slightly, "Which of us are you going to do?" ā
Xuanyu smiled: "In the past thousands of years, few magicians have used this seal, even if it is very useful. The last few words were eloquent, "Since it is humans who create the seals and make the rules, do you think they can keep it themselves?" ā
"It's not the same people, right?"
"It's all the same." Xuanyu smiled and defined human greed, "They can change the rules in order to achieve a certain goal, and if necessary, they can whitewash the purpose as an excuse for their 'last resort'." But even so, there are still few magicians who use this seal, hehe, why? ā
"I don't have time to play dumb riddles with you!" Lucia said.
Xuanyu stretched out a finger: "There is only one reason." This seal also harms those who have lost it, and to the same extent as those who break it. ā
Lucia's face changed: "But ...... However, there is no record of ......"
"Of course, there will be records, but it's not in the book you read." Xuanyu glanced at the seal and said, "I have another explanation for the death seal here, do you want to hear it?" ā
"Don't be verbose!"
"The magic of this seal is strong when it is strong, and it is indestructible. It needs to be broken with heart's blood. But that's not the only way. Xuanyu said slowly, "With such a vicious seal, the sealer must attach and seal with his own life. If the sealer dies, the seal is gone, and if the sealbreaker is not stupid, he will definitely kill the sealer. Those with profound mana will hunt down the sealer to the ends of the earth. For those who give seals, it only adds to the problem. This seal will only be used unless you have an immortal body, or if you have ascended to immortality and are no longer in the world. ā
"If that's the case......" Lucia blinked, "the one you said was going to die was ......"
"Angela!"
"But isn't her purpose in doing this to set her on fire?" Lucia said.
"That's why I said she also counted the blood capital, but it's possible that she, like you, knows only one thing about this seal. Or maybe she's pretentious and doesn't take us into account. Xuanyu said.
Lucia narrowed her eyes, "So where is Angela now?" ā
"I guess," Xuanyu pointed above her head, "it should be on the ground." ā
"How so?" Lucia asked.
Angela trusts this seal very much, so naturally she will not linger closely. Taking a step back, if there is a battle, the ground will always be farther away from Akulan. Xuanyu said.
"But I think it's time to go down first." Lucia said.
"Why?"
"You just said that I was willing to seek the near and far, but in fact, I plan to see the stitches."
Xuanyu understood Lucia's meaning, but frowned slightly, shook her head lightly, and said: "If you prick the needle right, it will hurt you, and the price will not only be dozens of lives, such compassion is no different from stupidity." ā
"If you haven't even tried it, how do you know it's wrong?" Lucia was unmoved, "Besides, I'm not a compassionate person, I just act rashly, and it is the same reason that you invite a mad demon to fight poison with poison." ā
"How could you be the same as me?" Xuanyu's words were light, but the meaning in it was full of provocation, different from the gentleness and pampering in the past, this time it was very persistent and tough, "Besides, now is not the time to give you willfulness, you also know which is more important, or you don't intend to follow my will?" Gradually, Xuanyu's gaze cooled.
Lucia's face remained unchanged, but her cheeks flushed slightly: "I, I only listen to my sweetheart." I don't like you, why should I let you do it? At this point, she glanced to the side slightly, "I still think Angela is down there." ā
"Joke, you really didn't listen to what I just said!" Xuanyu's face was gloomy, "Little girl, don't be too conceited!" ā
"You're the one who is conceited!" Even if she angered Xuanyu, Lucia did not back down.
"Then we might as well make a bet, I'll go up and you down, and see if Angela is as I say or as you wish!" Xuanyu narrowed her eyes, this would not be as angry as just now, but her words and expressions were still full of dissatisfaction with Lucia, "Whoever wins can order the other party to do one thing, of course, if you die before this, don't blame me for not keeping my promise." ā
"Okay, I'll bet with you!" Lucia agreed, "Also, don't talk as if I'm going to die." ā
Xuanyu smiled coldly and did not speak.
After the two had said their minds, they parted ways, and Lucia turned and waved away, heading straight for the next staircase. She didn't want to look back, but when she got around the corner, she involuntarily stopped, hid behind the wall, and peeked back. The gate of the Akulan Garden was already empty, Lucia didn't know when Xuanyu left, she only knew that the other party would definitely not follow, the truth was obviously as expected, but when Lucia saw the slightly flickering luster on the seal, exuding a strong message of death, she still couldn't help but shudder.
But Lucia went on without hesitation. She knew that there was a race against time at this time, and she didn't have time to estimate the details of those side branches, and she also knew that compared to the innocent girls who were captured for blood food, Egrem and the entire human world were more important, but there were other solutions to this problem here in Lucia.
Most people fight for more people, while a few, nay, even the only one, still think about the girls who have been forgotten on the edge of the world and have experienced death-like despair, and are trying to save them. If they knew all this, then even if the ending was not good enough, their souls would be warmed at the last moment, at least they would not become resentful spirits in gold coins, harming others and themselves. Moreover, Lucia never thought that death was the end, it was just a transformation of life forms. Especially after he changed from a human to a blood demon, he was even more convinced of this.
