Chapter 234: It's better to save yourself than to ask for help
Helping Cana snatch the faith is actually a recent idea, and after hearing the original intention of Sarah's drinking party, Jano also began to figure out that it is better to save himself than to ask for help.
Aloy, who will appear on the Night of the Eclipse, is unlikely to leave the islands, and Lucian is anxious to save his wife from the Isle of Shadows, both of whom have a hard time putting aside their purpose to help Jeno - he simply can't come up with anything to move them.
If you can't move the rescuers, then you can only save Picheng by yourself! As long as Jana becomes strong enough, it is not impossible to fight against Zelas!
And on Sarah's side......
Jeno was convinced, Sarah thought a lot, and finally let her mood fall into the abyss.
No more optimistic.
It turned out that Aloy's visit to Bilgewater was not just a mission, her other purpose was still to help Planck gain a foothold.
The current situation is that Aloy will give an order, and Okau and most of the gang will support her choice to become the lord of the city.
Judging from the information she gathered, Planck is definitely not dead, and even if Eloy doesn't settle accounts with her, Planck will make a comeback with Aloy's support.
And without Aloy's support, she will fall before the next Night of Soul Eclipses, so where will she go from here?
Abandon Bilgewater? That's absolutely impossible! She must have watched Planck die in front of her, just as she had watched her mother die in her arms.
And then Jeno's words made her worst-case scenario come true.
"While we were talking, Planck had already passed the Eloy Trial at the Temple. In the eyes of Aloy, Planck is better suited to rule the city than you are. ”
"How do you know what happened so far away?"
Sarah's eyes burned, trying to find out the slightest hint of possible untruthfulness in Jeno's words.
Unfortunately, no.
"Because behind me there is an all-knowing goddess."
Jano reached out to tease the blue bird on his shoulder at Sarah's stunned gaze, and although he was pecked a few times in the ear, he didn't mind.
Cana has heard Oriana say that Jeno is orchestrating herself behind her back, and now she is throwing the pot in front of her.
She hadn't done anything, so why did Jeno say that he had told him what had happened at the temple?
However, she still chose to turn a blind eye to the performance, and it was not good for Jana to expose Jeno's plan.
Cana was a little uneasy, from Jeno's words, she had already sensed the undercurrent, but she still listened patiently, and first saw what kind of medicine was sold in Jeno's gourd.
Sarah's mind was in turmoil.
If Planck really passed the trial of soul torture, it was not only Aloy who was choosing him, but the gods behind her choosing him! That's an oracle!
And what odds do you have against yourself in the eyes of those bastards who are just a sinister stinky bitch competing with a chosen one to be the ruler?
Gan! Isn't this given for nothing?
At this moment, she really wanted to die with Planck, and she was gone.
"Sarah, you can trust us, as long as you and I help each other and benefit each other, even if you don't rely on those self-righteous Bajou, you can sit back and relax and become the supreme empress of Bilgewater."
"I don't crave power like those men, I just want Bilgewater to be a little less wicked like Planck under my rule. In that case, why did you choose me? ”
Jeno suddenly cocked Erlang's legs, raised his head and thought deeply, and most of the movements startled the blue bird that Cana incarnated flew away.
"Because...... You have to be. "Looking at the whole of Bilgewater, the only partner who has both the ability and the position is Sarah.
"Thank you, sir."
"Don't call me sir, I'm a few years younger than you, I should call you Sister Good Luck."
"Good luck sister?"
Miss Fortune is Miss Fortune, Miss means both Miss and Loss, fortune translates as good luck, so the words of this two-word pun are Miss Bad Luck, and the literal translation is Miss Good Luck, Jeno called her so much that Sarah was a little surprised, but it was not wrong.
Sarah let out a sigh between her pursed lips, and suddenly smiled, her scarlet tongue licking her plump lips:
"The pie you drew for me is too big for Sarah to handle, so let's talk about how to survive this soul-devouring night."
"Quite simply, the most terrifying thing about the Night of Soul Eater is the undead lurking in the black mist."
Jeno nodded, snapping his fingers.
"The undead have a characteristic, most of them need to rely on the black fog to manifest, and only a few powerful spirits can break through the restrictions of the black fog and wander all the time. The relationship between the undead and the cursed black fog is like that of fish and water, and if the black fog is kept out of the city, the invasion of Bilgewater will be greatly weakened. ”
Another piece of news that Sarah didn't know but was very useful, she wondered, how did Jeno know these secrets, had he been to the source of the black mist, the shadow island full of undead?
It doesn't look like it, and it is estimated that it was also what Jana told him.
"How is this going to happen?"
"The wind can blow away the black fog, there is no threat from a large number of weak undead, as long as we evade the pursuit of those powerful undead until dawn, we can survive this night of soul erosion."
Jeno took the tools out of the toolbox and began to do the work that Sarah knew all too well.
"If it happens, the poor people in the lower city won't have to be sacrificed." Sarah's voice is that she wants to get the support of these poor people, and that's very important to her.
These men were never blessed by the Serpent Mother, and became the first victims of the Night of the Eclipse of Souls, assimilated into the undead, mutilated the living, and finally disappeared under the divine light of Naga Kapoulos.
And those powerful people who live in the upper city, it is precisely because of these cannon fodder that they attract the firepower of the undead for them, so that they can survive until the moment when the divine light comes.
Judging by the results, Naga Kapoulos can be said to be the god of death with no owner.
Instead of saving when he was alive, he was liberated only after he died, which was one of the reasons why Jeno was disgusted by the belief in the Mother Serpent.
Perhaps all the gods except Naga are so unkind.
"Sarah, this is my plan, to make your reputation rise quickly by resisting the Night of Soul Eclipse, and to make it clear that Aloy is not their only savior, and that you will have to do your best to cultivate your wings before Planck returns, and finally on the Day of Decisive Battle, you will be able to slash your enemies in a head-on battle. So...... Are you ready to fight Aloy? ”
The Serpent Mother may not care about the beliefs offered by the Birgewater region, but it cannot be ruled out that this power struggle will turn into a divine war.
"Is there any other way?" Sarah rolled her throat, subconsciously not wanting to be the enemy of the mother snake.
"Yes, it seems that as long as you also endure the torture of Naga Kabolos's soul, Aloy may not have a biased choice between you and Planck, how will you choose?"
