“…… Where have all the people in the town gone? ”

Helbo's question represents that the development of reality is beyond his grasp, and it also means that Maca's hidden plan has been a great success.

"Of course they're all gone," Maka said with a slight frown as she looked at Helmpo who had kidnapped Harry, "or else...... Am I going to let them stay here and let the 'living dead' below brutally persecute them? ”

The near-enclosed Spiral Town, supplemented by the magic set by Maca herself, makes it impossible for Helbo to easily know the details of the town. And the only "ear" inserted by the latter was disturbed by Maca's early detection of the design.

However, if it is enough to deviate from Helbo's expectations, then such a painstaking plan seems to be somewhat child's play.

After a moment's pause, Maka continued:

"Helmo, actually, I just want to use the facts to show you that even if you have mastered the rules of death now, you will never be an omniscient and all-powerful existence - there is more than just 'death' in the third-level rules! Not to mention, you haven't even touched the edge of the rules of death yet! ”

If Maca had used something else to squeeze Helbo, perhaps the latter's indifference to anything other than magic would not have been offended. But this time, Maca's words were like a sharp sword with eyes, and they accurately struck at the place that Helbo values most now.

To be honest, even with Helbo's heart, which has been tempered by the years, he suddenly has a little annoyance.

"McLean," saw the other party's gradually cold gaze cross the top of Harry's head in front of him, and stared firmly at Maca, "with your level of barely being able to use the second-level rules, you dare to say such a thing to me?" For a wizard like you, what does the three-level rule mean, I'm afraid it's impossible to even imagine, right? ”

Speaking of this, Helbo couldn't help but sneer.

"Hmph...... Ignorance always makes people arrogant, and it seems that you have taken a new step on the path of 'arrogance'! ”

But in the face of Helbo's slightly sarcastic gaze, Maca was unmoved, he just suddenly seemed to recall some past events, and said with a little amazement:

"Of course I dare to say such a thing, because ...... I've also seen a 'wizard who has really touched the rules of level three' up close, but guess what? I watched him die in front of me, and there was not even a bit of scum left! ”

What Maca said was obviously the "future self" that suddenly appeared in front of her. At that time, he didn't know much about the rules of time, so he didn't have a deep understanding of how incredible it was for the other party to appear in front of him in violation of the rules and common sense.

But now that he knew, he understood how dangerous the rules of the third tier could be, and how difficult it was for a wizard to master them.

Helmpo said that Maha was ignorant and arrogant, but in fact, Maha still wanted to say that Helmo was too conceited! Ever since this guy gained the body of a demon, he has obviously become more and more arrogant.

Is there such a thing as a third-level rule that can be mastered by taking shortcuts? Anyway, Maca didn't believe it at all.

However, even if this is the case, it seems that all it seems is necessary to wait for Helmo to self-destruct in pursuit of the third-level rules. But if that guy really came to that point, the world would have been devastated by the other party's constant nonsense.

"So," Maca thought for a moment, but finally shook her head, "Death may not be the end of life, but if even the 'existence' itself disappears, then it is probably really over, right?" ”

It's a pity that no matter how sincere and beautiful Maca is, Helbo, who is immersed in the power he has and is getting closer and closer to his goal, can't listen to it.

"You've also seen wizards who have touched the rules of the third level?"

When Helmo heard Maca's words, he couldn't help but stare at him, until Maca bluntly said that "that wizard" no longer existed, and then he pulled the corners of his mouth and said:

"Hmph, if you haven't come this far, you won't understand my wisdom!"

After he had said this, he suddenly raised his hand and motioned to Maca:

"What's more, not to mention the things that are too profound for you, just the current situation—do you really think that the slightest deviation from the plan can change the situation between you and me? As I said earlier, the people in this town don't matter to me, it doesn't matter if they're dead or they're gone! ”

"It may not be important to you, but to me, it's important!"

Maca sighed, then couldn't help but smile wryly.

"Actually, I'm not afraid to admit that this is my weakness...... Personally, it is undoubtedly quite difficult to make decisions for others, let alone decide the life and death of others. ”

As he spoke, he couldn't help but suddenly shift his gaze to Harry's face, and looked directly at the other party, who seemed to be a little nervous, and said:

"So...... Harry, I'm sorry for you, because this time, I apparently had to make such a dangerous decision for you. ”

"Mara, Maca?"

Harry still hadn't been able to fully understand Maca's intentions, though even he had been somewhat aware that Maca had deliberately allowed him to be kidnapped by Helpo.

"Maca, you don't understand at all!" Harry was stunned, then suddenly gritted his teeth and said, "You have done so much for us, you have helped everyone so much, and you have saved more people than you can count...... It's just a matter of giving your life for your plan, not only me, but many people will be willing to make sacrifices! ”

"Oh, what a touching scene!"

Helbo listened and couldn't help but laugh.

"Alright," he paused, then said to Maka "whatever else you can do!" But obviously, no matter what you do, this kid is bound to die. ”

"Really?"

When Maca heard this, she nodded noncommittally.

"Then as you wish—"

Before the words fell, a faint blue light rose from every street and alley in Spiral Town, and a large number of ancient magic words and lines with different directions suddenly appeared.

It was a huge magic array that encompassed the entire town, and it was also the last trap for Helbo in the plan that Maca had planned.

In an instant, everyone's vision was covered by the monstrous blue light.

"Harry!"

And at the moment when her vision was blue, Maca immediately shouted.
