Chapter 147: The End of the Plague Mage
In a real battle of life and death where you can ascend to the sky in one step if you win, but you will die without a place to die if you lose, you have a fatal miscalculation in the trump card trick you are most confident in, and you are used by your opponent to take advantage of the opportunity to completely beat yourself to death...... This kind of despair is the first experience for the calculating Bekaz, and from the current point of view, it is likely to be the last.
Bekaz had envisioned many situations in which Rococo would put himself in a death crisis, but he really didn't expect that Rococo would use a powerful self-healing regeneration skill so subtly to crack his plague devouring, and if the positive life force infused by nature's breath into the plague bone dragon finally became a deadly poison for Bekatz's body under the effect of the plague devouring skill, then Rococo showed the kind of calmness that everything was under control before and after this amazing flip, It became a spiritual blow to Bekaz.
Getting into a desperate situation is not the most terrible thing, but even more terrifying than being in a desperate situation is to find out that it was all calculated by your enemy, and you don't even know if this is the end of the other party's conspiracy...... This is a true portrayal of Bekaz's mentality today.
In fact, Rococo is not so "sophisticated", except for designing a trap against Bekaz with Oranado in advance, and understanding Bekaz's personal ability in advance through the information of his past life and preparing the means to perfectly restrain the plague devouring, Rococo really did not have any so-called "calculations" for Oranado in other places, and even for the practice that Bekaz used in the previous battle to set up the White Bone Hand Claw Forest in advance as a foreshadowing for the real power of the plague body later, Truth be told, Rococo is the one who is a little unprepared.
It's just that Beccaz has really been driven to a dead end at this moment, and he has no time to rationally and delicately consider whether Rococo is really a more insidious conspirator than him. He only knew that Rococo had clearly anticipated and prepared for his plague devouring, and had easily turned the trump card he had played into a talisman for himself. With less than five percent of his blood left, he really has no chance of winning against Rococo now, and what makes matters worse is that because of the fragments of Godhead in his body, Bekaz, who will not be affected too much by the interference of the game system, really feels the feeling of weakness that his life is coming to an end, even if he is still in flesh at the moment. Gained enhanced physique in the form of a plague monster.
But even so, he didn't envy those aborigines who had lost themselves even in an empty state of blood and couldn't quite appreciate the frailty of life...... He didn't want to die, he didn't want to be deprived of the fragments of Godhead and self-will, he was one of the few people chosen by God and fate in this collapsed world!
Bekaz, who loves intrigue and is cautious and conceited at the same time, has a contradictory but unified personality in the face of a "life and death" situation in a sense, and finally succumbs for the first time.
So, just as Rococo was about to use a concussive arrow to stun Bekaz who had stopped the plague devouring for some reason, and then completely kill him, she suddenly saw a dark green magic circle emerge from Bekaz's body.
Taken aback, the fairy girl thought for a moment that this was some secret hole card of Bekaz, after all, she had heard of Bekaz having similar abilities and skills in the game materials of her previous life. But soon she realized that she was wrong, in the dim and turbid light of the magic array, the unnaturally grown bone armor on Bekaz's body in the form of a plague monster began to shatter and fall, and the parts similar to sarcoma meat hooks began to deflate while bleeding dark red dirty blood, and finally, Bekaz's unnaturally swollen body and legs, swollen left hand and elongated right arm, all began to retract into their original human form. And just like that, a few seconds later, the monstrous plague monster was gone, replaced by Beccaz, who had been in his original mage form.
It's just that compared to before the transformation, Bekaz at this moment has completely changed into a person, like a berserker's strong figure, but at this moment, he is obviously shriveled, and even his waist is like an ordinary old man in the old age of the wind and candle, at the same time, the hair on his face is full of dirty blood and pus left over from the transformation of the plague body form, if it weren't for Rococo watching him transform back, She might even think it was a lonely old man living in a slum sewer in a Free Federation city.
However, compared to Bekaz's embarrassed appearance, what he said to Rococo next surprised Rococo even more.
ββ¦β¦ I throw in the towel...... I throw in the towel, so, please don't kill me. β
Rococo's eyes widened slightly, in her mind, a guy like Bekaz who can still retain his ambition even in the context of the collapse of the world, and play with a conspiracy to be ruthless, if not a hero, at least a rare hero, she would never have thought that at such a dying moment, Bekaz actually gave up the possibility of finally letting go and fighting for a chance of survival, and instead chose to kneel and beg for mercy.
Rococo was a little stunned because of Bekaz's unexpected weakness behavior, and Bekaz understood the fairy girl's momentary silence as the other party didn't want to let him go. The plague mage's face briefly showed a hint of malice from Rococo's attitude of killing everything, but this strangeness was soon replaced by vivid panic, and Bekaz, who had clearly not recovered from the side effects of the plague body, spoke in a weak tone that matched his appearance at the moment, and spoke even lower than before.
"Great and honorable elve, have mercy on the last free soul left in this deplorable world, and I confess my guilt for all because of my momentary delusion...... I swear, I swear with my soul and blood, from now on, I will never do anything that goes against the creation goddess Arya and the order of the continent, I will always follow the guidance of the goddess and the light of order, and fight for the rest of my life to restore the glory of order on the continent of Emissia and expel those abominable chaos......"
If you just listen to the lines, some people may even think that this is thinking that the fanatical followers of the Goddess of Creation Sect are doing spiritual introspection under the statue of the goddess, but in the current situation, these words coming out of Bekaz's mouth only make Rococo feel a little ridiculous and out of place.
The conspiracy careerist who stirred up the changes in the Eumelasia continent in his previous life for his own ambitions, and made the main game line of "Redemption" in his previous life deviate from the purpose of saving the world from the very beginning, would be such a person who is afraid of death...... Could it be that in his previous life, when Bekaz was finally defeated by Oranado without her involvement, he also pleaded with Oranado at that time?
Although Bekaz is not a ruthless character who wants to bite Rococo before he dies, it is of course good news for Rococo, but for some reason, looking at such a spineless Bekaz, Rococo has some complicated emotions that he doesn't know whether to say disappointed or happy...... In any case, it is certain that the girl could not have any unnecessary sympathy for such a Bekaz.
In Bekaz's panic and hatred, the soul bow that Rococo had originally put down was once again full, and at the same time, the girl's cold voice sounded in the ears of the plague mage.
"If you really think so, then please hand over the fragment of your Godhead of the Goddess of Creation on your body, this is the greatest contribution you can make to this world now."
"No, honorable elf-sama, please give me a chance, I, I know, you have been collecting the godhead fragments scattered all over the place for the sake of the goddess-sama, I, I can help you! I know there are a lot of people who have Godhead fragments......"
Beccaz was pleasantly surprised to find that his words brought the Rococo to a halt once again, and he knew that the chips he had thrown had finally worked.
If it was for his own life, betraying his allies was nothing to Becaz, who had been ready to confess Conte and "the great man" behind him from the moment he said itβas long as Rococo was willing to let him go.
ββ¦β¦ Lord Elf, I think you must be interested in the Conte who came with me this time, and the person behind him who helped me in the upper echelons of the Free Federation during the Lancarus time, as long as you are willing to let me go this time, I will tell you all their true identities at once...... Swear by the Soul Oath! β
Rococo looked at Bekaz who was negotiating with her on the condition of betraying his allies as if he had grasped the last straw in the water, and the last trace of identification in her heart for this person as a careerist hero also disappeared, she could naturally hear Bekaz's little tricks in this sentence, although Beccaz said "swear by the soul oath", but in fact he confused the object of the oath in his words, the real content of the oath is not that Bekaz guarantees the authenticity of his testimony, but as long as Rococo does not make sure to let him go first, He wouldn't have told Rococo the truth...... It's a pity that Rococo won't let him go.
However, it was clear that the careerist had fallen to the point where he was now in a bit of a mess, and he did not realize that his words had leaked important information. At the very least, Rococo knew that the mysterious merchant was dressed as Conte, and that he had a very close relationship with Becaz's ally in the Lancarus incident...... As long as there is such a clue, even if Beccaz does not tell her the truth, Rococo has the possibility of following the trace.
Perhaps the contempt and pity in Rococo's eyes were too obvious, Bekaz, who was observing Rococo's face, gradually saw the final decision made in the girl's heart, and the flattering smile on his face finally turned into helplessness and hatred, Bekaz's face was distorted, and suddenly he roared, and then a magic with a desperate aura burst out from him.
"I curse you! Damn goblins! Damn Guardian of Order! The world is over! There is no order for you to protect! You lunatic! Lamentable! Hopeless fools! β
Rumble!
Bekaz's last magic and Rococo's soul power collided in the air, and the barrage of plague magic balls released by the plague mage who ran out of light could not resist Rococo's meteor arrow shower, and finally Bekaz was knocked away and fell from the top of the plague bone dragon's head.
Even so, at the last moment, Bekaz still had that crazy and hideous expression, and roared at Rococo, who was aiming at him with a bow from above.
"The world is rotten! It sucks! And me! It's the chosen one! I am the new order! I am the new God! Damn fools, you're all going to give that stupid goddess a burial! You're going to be doomed with the world! I am the new god you should bow down toβuh! β
The plague mage's frenzied words came to an abrupt end as the dark blue soul arrow sank into Bekaz's chest, and he just kept the last of his crazy expression, and his eyes that couldn't hide his despair and horror, and continued to fall to the ground below.
The wild conspiracy drama belonging to the plague mage Bekaz has finally come to an end.
