Chapter 252: The Aging Hero

"Ahem~~Ahem~~"

In the alleyways of the illusion labyrinth, Max coughed all the way, and the cough was heartbreaking.

Fairman walked in the front, he turned his head to look at Max from time to time, as if he was afraid that he would cough up his lungs, and after walking for more than ten minutes, he finally couldn't help it: "Master, you don't care, right?" I see you're coughing so much that you're vomiting blood, why don't we take a break? ”

"Ahem~~Ahem~~ It doesn't matter~ Don't stop, time is very urgent! Gotta rush back and report the news! Max staggered on his feet, and it was only with Rosen's support that he didn't fall.

Rosen spoke: "Fairman, if you don't carry Master Max on your back, maybe you can go faster?" ”

Fairman hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, master, I'll carry you, right?" ”

Max nodded in agreement: "Okay, then I'll trouble you, cough cough~"

Fellman put the heavy sword and the giant shield on his back, and just as he was about to carry Max up, he found that there was a sword and shield on his back to get in the way, he scratched his head, and simply hugged Max horizontally: "Master, you show the way, I'll just carry you over." ”

Max was speechless, he was a famous magician in the continent, and he was actually held by a man in this posture of holding a woman, his whole person was awkward, but now the situation is urgent, he can't help but be hypocritical, he gritted his teeth and endured: "Keep moving forward, after encountering a fork in the road, just follow the direction I said." ”

"Okay, hold on, I'm speeding up." Fellman began to run, running faster and faster, until his speed increased to about twice that of the average person, before he stabilized.

Rosen also began to accelerate, and with his current physique, he could easily keep up with Fairman.

After running for a while, he suddenly asked, "Master Max, tell me the truth, to what extent has the poison spread in Veronica's body?" ”

Max was in a better situation than just now, and when he heard Rosen ask, he asked rhetorically, "Why, you don't believe me?" ”

"I just want to know the facts!" Rosen's voice was faint, although he didn't say it explicitly, but the meaning was already very obvious, he just didn't believe it.

Max sighed: "Count, it's only the third time we've met, and it's normal that you don't believe me." Let me put it this way, there are still 2 hours before the toxin reaches the heart of the dragon lady, and once it enters the heart, things are not easy to say. ”

Rosen asked again, "Why didn't Morbius come?" ”

Max sighed again: "I can't explain this for a while. When you get back, ask Morbius himself. All I can tell you now is that if I hadn't come to tell you, the dragon lady would have died. ”

"I see, thank you."

All three of them were silent all the way after that, except for the sound of footsteps, only Max occasionally coughed.

After about 10 minutes, the trio entered the dungeon.

Fairman was immediately shocked by the situation in the dungeon: "Hey~ It turns out that there are so many survivors~ This is really good!" ”

He had always thought that all the people in the city were dead, so that he fell into despair for a while. When he saw Rosen, he couldn't get excited. Now that he saw so many living people, he suddenly felt like he had returned to the world from hell.

His gaze swept through the crowd, trying to find past acquaintances.

Max patted his arm lightly, "Warrior, you let me down." Wait a minute, you are waiting in this hall now, and Rosen and I will go to the small hall inside to detoxify and save people. ”

"Oh, good." Fairman came to his senses, nodded repeatedly, and carefully placed Max on the ground.

Max's face was no longer the blood red he used to be, he looked a little gray, his face was wrinkled, his trademark red hair had lost its luster, and he looked like a thin little old man.

Max looked at Lawson and said, "Come with me." ”

The two of them made their way through the crowd, across the illusion staircase, and back into the small hall.

After arriving at the small hall, Rosen saw Morbius lying on the ground 'dancing' at a glance. After a closer look, he saw that Mobius's clothes were charred and blackened, as if he had been burned by fire, he was shocked, immediately paused, and subconsciously touched the handle of the musket: "What's going on?" ”

"It's me...... I trapped him with illusions. A timid voice came from the corner of the hall, it was the illusionist Vigo.

"Why did you do that?" Rosen frowned.

"Because he intended to attack me!" Sage Nia's calm voice sounded, and she turned to look at Wei Ge again, "Now you can let him go." ”

Wei Ge nodded, his hand slowly wiped in the air, the air around Mobius's body suddenly twisted slightly, and in the next second, Mobius suddenly jumped up from the ground, turned his head and let out a thunderous roar at Wei Ge: "Little girl, you actually made me fall off the cliff for more than an hour!" You're completely me off now! ”

Vigo shrank back, her eyes fixed on Morbius, and if he made any moves, she would immediately activate the illusion again.

'Whew~Whew~'

Morbius gasped for air, his eyes were bloodshot, and he was already angry to the extreme, but he still had a trace of reason, knowing that he was not Wei Ge's opponent, so he kept standing there and didn't make a move.

When his anger subsided a little, he felt something strange behind him, so he turned his head to look behind him, and saw Lawson.

He was stunned for a moment, his eyes became very complicated, and he stared at Rosen for a long time, and then he asked, "Have you found a cure for the poison?" ”

Rosen was a little confused by Mobius's strange gaze, but still answered truthfully: "There is a clue, but more experiments are needed." ”

Hearing this answer, Morbius let out a long sigh and shook his head repeatedly: "Then you shouldn't come back!" ”

Rosen is even more strange: "Why ......"

'Ahem~'

A cough rang out, it was Max. He said loudly: "Now is not the time to catch up, the most important problem for us now is that this hiding place has been exposed!" ”

"What?" Niya was taken aback.

"How can it be exposed?" Illusionist Wei Ge looked incredulous.

Max coughed a few more times and said, "Donassis, the Tree Demon of Destruction, will soon know the news. We have to act quickly. Wei Ge, you must adjust the entrance of the phantom circle immediately. ”

"Yes, I'll do it now!" The young sorceress jumped up from her chair and ran out of the hall in a 'boom~' direction.

Max walked up to the sage Nia again and whispered, "Nia, my magic power has been exhausted, and it will take at least five days to recover. For five days, it's all up to you to hold that tree demon back. ”

The sage Nya sighed lightly, "I'll do my best...... But you and I both know how powerful Donassis is, and this is just stalling for time, and the only way we can do it is to ......"

"Nya!" Max suddenly interrupted the sage's words, he looked at Nia with a determined look, and said in a condensed voice, "You promised me!" ”

The sage lowered her eyes, and after a long time, she sighed: "Hey~~~ You are always so stubborn. ”

Max's expression was slightly relaxed, and he turned his head to look at Lawson not far away: "Young man, the tree demon is coming, will you fight side by side with us?" ”

Lawson nodded without hesitation: "I just want to see what he is capable of." ”

"Good boy, I really didn't misunderstand you!" Max laughed, only to laugh twice before he started coughing again.

The sage Niya immediately took out a medicine bottle and handed it over. Max hurriedly took the medicine bottle and drank a small half bottle in one go, which relieved him. He saw that Rosen and Morbius were looking at the medicine bottle in his hand, and embarrassedly hid the medicine bottle behind him: "People are old, their bodies are not good, and there is no way." ”

Rosen was a little suspicious that Max had tuberculosis, so he stepped forward and said, "I know a little bit about medicine, maybe I can help you see it." ”

"No need!"

It was not Max who spoke, but Niya, who looked at Rosen coldly: "Max is not sick, he is just old." What you should be most concerned about now is that poisoned dragon girl! ”

Reminded by her, Rosen remembered what was going on, and he hurriedly walked over to Veronica's side, lifted his clothes, and checked the spread of the toxin.

Seeing this, his heart beat violently, and Max really didn't lie to him, just a little bit, the toxin was about to spread to the heart.

Niya said coldly: "Young man, you see, your dragon girl won't last long. The only way to save her now is to use your body as a bond and summon the power of the gods. Have you figured out how to save her? ”

Before Rosen could speak, Morbius took a step forward and stopped in front of Rosen: "No! Absolutely not! Rosen, you must not do this! Your life is not yours alone! ”

Niya snorted coldly, and with a wave of her hand, Mobius's body was suddenly uncontrollable, unable to move, and unable to speak, just standing there like a wood carving.

"Young man, it's time to make a decision."

Rosen smiled faintly: "Sage, don't worry, I still have one last way to try." ”

A hint of impatience flashed across Nya's face, she glanced at Max, and finally said, "Although I think you are wasting your time, Max has an inexplicable trust in your abilities. Go ahead, don't let him down. ”
