Chapter 49: Gerald

"Long time no see, Elusa."

Gerald, wearing a hood, looked up and smiled at the beautiful woman with long crimson hair flying.

Although he is smiling, he does not feel a trace of warmth, but makes people feel a chill down his spine.

"Gerald."

"If you want to escape, you should be able to escape easily, right?" Gerald wondered.

"I'm going to free my former companions." Elusa said firmly.

"Whatever you want." Gerald laughed, "Anyway, the Tower of Paradise has been built, and they're useless. ”

"But after 10 minutes, it's going to be ruined." There was a hint of confusion in Elusa's eyes. She also had the same question, and she didn't know why Gerald could be so calm in this situation.

"Did you say it's the magic elf power?" Gerald said casually, but he didn't seem to be worried.

Judging from this calmness...... That news should be just a bluff, right? ”

"No, the magic elf power will fall."

Gerald dropped the hood from his head, revealing a wicked grin.

"Really? But 10 minutes is enough, Gerald, it's time for you and me to make a break. ”

Elusa's expression froze, and she raised the knife in her hand.

"You will be the sacrifice of the resurrected Jelf and die......"

Jelf grinned, "This is a fate you can't change!" ”

"I'm not a little confused now."

Elusa held the knife in both hands, "Let's settle all grievances in these ten minutes." ”

"Then you can take it."

Gerald said as he unleashed several giant pythons of dark magic, twisting and charging towards Elusa.

"Don't think you'll be able to make it."

Elusa, who was always vigilant, slammed the sword in her hand.

The cold light slashed through several rays of dark magic, and then slashed at Gerald without stopping.

Gerald's eyes froze, and he quickly jumped back, and then stretched out his hand at Elusa, and the black magic condensed, scattered into several black beams of light and flew out.

Elusa dodged with dexterity. The black beam of light hit the walls and pillars of the tower behind it, and there was a burst of explosions.

"Don't you think it's a pity to destroy the tower that was built with great difficulty?"

Elusa's figure flickered, closing the distance between her and Gerald, swinging her knife and slashing out a cold light.

"One or two pillars, just decoration."

Gerald chuckled and dodged, casually.

"It's for these decorations, they have been believing in you for 8 years!"

Anger appeared in Elusa's eyes, and the sword in her hand moved as she wished, swinging an incredible trail and slashing through Gerald's body.

"Hmm......"

Gerald's eyes showed a look of incredulity, and a long cut was slammed open in his chest, and blood splattered out.

"You ......"

Gerald pointed at Elusa in shock.

Brush.

Elusa pressed the tip of her knife against Gerald's throat, her expression cold and resolute.

"What is your real purpose?"

Elusa asked coldly, "It's not like I haven't done anything in the past 8 years. There is also a very serious investigation of the R system. The construction of this tower is no different from the design of the Tower of Paradise, but there is an essential factor that is required to complete the R system. ”

"I said it...... It's up to you to make the sacrifice......" Gerald grinned softly as he clutched his wound.

"That's not what I'm talking about."

Elusa shook her head and said, "What is really missing is magic. If you want to really activate the R system, you need 2.7 billion Idean magic power, and even if you gather all the magicians in the entire continent, you may not be able to gather such a huge amount of magic power. ”

Gerald was silent.

"Moreover, you knew that the Council was going to attack this place with magical elven power, but you didn't run away, why did you know that?"

Elusa said coldly: "There are still about 5 minutes before the magic elf power falls, I don't believe that you are the kind of person who will take the initiative to seek death, maybe you used to be able to do this for the sake of your companions, but now you will definitely not be able to do that kind of self-sacrificing thing." ”

"Do you have 5 minutes left?"

Gerald's face showed a hint of remembrance, "Aren't you leaving?" Do you want to die with someone like me? ”

"Gerald ......"

Elusa's eyes shrank.

"My body is possessed by Jelf's spirit, and I don't listen to it anymore......" Gerald closed his eyes, "I'm the doll I used to resurrect Jelf's body." ”

"Possessed?"

Elusa looked at Gerald in surprise.

"I can't save myself. My companions can't save me, no one can save me. ”

Gerald smiled bitterly, "Paradise never existed...... For me, freedom has ended before it even begins......"

“……”

"Perhaps, being killed like this by you is the best option, Elusa." Gerald's face showed sadness, "Then I may be able to find true relief." ”

A tremor flashed in Elusa's eyes, and the hand holding the knife trembled.

Did you kill Gerald? She had thought about it, but now, after hearing Gerald's explanation, she couldn't do anything about it. At that time, she regarded Gerald as a brother and a relative, and until now, even if she was hurt by him and labeled a betrayer by him, she never thought of breaking this bond.

She attaches great importance to her feelings, and the same is true for Gerald, who used to be like her brother.

"Elusa, don't be deceived."

At this moment, Lin Yu and the four of them walked over from the side. Simon shouted.

"Elusa, he's stalling for time." Lucy stepped forward and pointed at Gerald and shouted, "He's waiting for the magic spirit power to fall, and when the time comes, this tower will be able to collect 2.7 billion Illia's magic power after absorbing the magic spirit power, and he will be able to activate the park tower!" ”

"What!"

Elusa looked up at Gerald in shock.

Gerald's expression also changed slightly, he didn't expect his plan to be discovered.

After seeing Gerald's reaction, Elusa gritted her silver teeth and said angrily, "Gerald, what you just said is a fabricated lie, right?!" ”

"There's no undead in him, little Elusa."

Suddenly, another voice came from the side, and Elusa looked shocked, and quickly turned her head to look, and then saw that the person who was most important to her was standing beside her.

"Sister Feather Coat!"

Both Elusa and Lucy looked stunned.

"When will it ......"

Gerald's brow furrowed, "When did this woman come to this island?" I didn't even notice it! ”

"If you are possessed by the undead, you must not be able to hide my eyes." Feather looked at Gerald, "So, what you just said to Elusa was all a lie. even took advantage of Elusa's affectionate and righteous character again and again...... You are unforgivable!! ”
