04_22 Redemption (Ending)

"Please...... Stop my father...... He's crazy......"
The "ghost" that appeared in front of Kolotia and the black cat did not show any aggression. On the contrary, such a request is made.
"Your father?"
"He's ...... Archbishop of Sunburst City, but ...... Father is now ...... Fallen, subjected to the existence of evil that is older than the devil...... Tempt ......," the ghost replied.
As the so-called black and black two, Kolotia turned her head and saw that Biffin was indeed there frowning. I'm a demon.,In addition to my own "master", the person I respect the most is "the evil existence zài that is older than the demon", even if the other party has no malice at all, sure enough, he will still feel targeted.
In the words of the "shadows" themselves, they are "beings on the outer side of the world". And if you use an easy-to-understand but not so precise word to describe it, "shadow" is probably the same as the "demon god".
[In this way, I was unknowingly put on a position and became the priest of the demon god. 】
Kolotia wandered slightly, but the other party didn't seem to notice, still talking about his own topic: "I am the youngest member of my family, because my brothers were killed in the previous war of the dead. So, because of my death, my father was hit hard. Otherwise, with his will, it would not have been possible to receive such a process. ”
……
"So what? What is he going to do now? Or rather...... What has he already done? Kolotia's eyes narrowed, "It's better for all of us not to hide anything?" If I'm not mistaken, you're Lisa's father, right? ”
"Yes......"
"I was taken care of a lot by Lisa and we had a pretty good relationship...... So, I wonder how Lisa is doing now? ”
Kolotia had already noticed that something was wrong.
After the implementation of the new system mechanics, the speed of leveling should increase very quickly. Lisa, who had originally made an appointment to come back after practicing to about thirty to thirty-five, delayed for nearly a month because of "other things". Even if Chromia used all the information sources at her disposal in the end, she couldn't tell where Lisa had gone—only that Lisa had most likely returned to Sunburst City.
If there was one of the first disappearances in Sun City, it would probably be Lisa.
The important relatives who tried their best to save even if they lost their memories and died more than 40 times, but disappeared without a trace for no reason.
It's unacceptable in any way.
Kolotia cares far more about the "disappearances" than anyone else.
However, as mentioned before, there are very few things that can trap a "player" under the current system mechanics. As a "player", Lisa would disappear like this, and Kolotia had no clue about it at first. Until the end, the targets and clues locked onto the cathedral of this sunny city one by one.
Kolotia's mood at the moment was more than just worry or anger.
However, the other party refused to answer for a long time under Kolotia's gaze.
"Even if you don't answer me, I'll find out in my own way. Even if it's a little rougher......" Kolotia's tone was still calm and rhythmic, and even a slight smile on her cheeks.
It seems that he understands Kolotia's decision. "Ghost" shook his head:
Lisa her...... Already...... It becomes some kind of ritual...... I installed it and was turned into a ...... by my father Evil props...... You must destroy her......"
“…… Sir, though you are Lisa's father...... But if you don't make it clear, I don't mind destroying you first, right? ”
Although she was still smiling, Kolotia's voice was already a little shaky.
Even a black cat could tell that she was being strong.
"Father him, take advantage of Lisa's ...... The soul is made into a pump...... Extract ...... from the Spiritual Pulse Soul...... Because your 'system' has a loophole...... It can be like this...... Take advantage of ......"
"This, this too...... It's too evil......" The black cat next to him was frightened enough by what the "ghost" said.
"And then?" However, Kolotia still looked calm.
Lisa her...... It has become a ...... Central...... ...... must be destroyed"
The presence of the man's ghost becomes thinner and thinner, and the voice becomes quieter. Before Kolotia could make a move, he himself would dissipate.
Left in place, there is only one drawing.
The layout of the core rooms here and the location of the cores of each facility are drawn in detail. Even what to destroy first, how to fight, sat down with clear notes.
As a ghost, it is very difficult to leave your mark on the physical object. That's probably why he dissipated so quickly.
"Please save my daughter, my father......"
In the bottom corner of the drawing, there is a line like this.

What happened next was no longer important to Kolotia.
It didn't matter how you joined up with the others, how you negotiated the battle plan, and how you followed the church to the core room.
Although every step was done carefully and meticulously, it was a completely machine-like action.
tried his best to protect Lisa's safety, but in the end, because of his actions, Lisa became a special physique, and finally suffered such a fate - what he thought was a seamless plan at the beginning, the whole thing seemed to be a set of self-defeating.
By the end, the cause and effect of the matter had been completely sorted out.
Being a native and a "player" at the same time gives Lisa a trait. With a little guidance, she can sink into the spiritual veins and enter a special state of "both death and life". In this way, by using the characteristics of the system, the souls flowing through the spiritual veins can be extracted.
And what Inberka and Vanessa saw was undoubtedly the "failure" in the process.
At this point, the Bishop had gone completely insane. While explaining, he fiddled with the equipment behind him, so that everyone could see with their own eyes how the body of the girl who was immersed in the spirit was working as part of the whole device.
In this way, the colorful, mud-like substance was extracted from the blood vessels that had been inserted into the girl's body.
Then it is processed and mixed in the equipment -
Even if you already knew from the drawings in advance that such a thing would happen, it is completely unacceptable.
There is no doubt that this man, he has fallen into the devil.
The news from the shadows also proves this.
In this bishop, there is the breath of other "outside" beings. But unlike Kolotia, he was nothing more than an outcast.
It's not just him, it's all things here that have been discarded without leaving any stone unturned. Therefore, it is very unfortunate that in the end, even the "shadow" cannot determine who did this.
"Even if it's on the outside, doing this kind of thing is definitely going to be crusaded against by everyone."
The moment Kolotia and the black cat entered the battle, the forces that supported the bishop disappeared without a trace.
It didn't take long for the Bishop to be supported by the little savings he had had, and the Lord Bishop had been cut into seven or eight pieces by the angry paladins.
However, this still does not solve the problem.
Or rather, the real question comes next.
The moment the archbishop fell, the entire "underground facility" began to tremble.
Although it is not known what the priests of Ancient Sun City did to build this underground facility. But, as everyone knows, this place is now going to collapse.

"Kolotia?"
Vanessa, who had some understanding of the relationship between Colotia and Lisa, still couldn't let go, and looked at Colotia running at the back of the line, and she quietly slowed down her pace.
Fortunately, because the scene was so chaotic, Inberca, as a small person mixed in the crowd, had no spare time to notice this incident.
"I know you're sad...... But that's what it looks like now......"
"No, I'm not as fragile as you think." Although Kolotia said this verbally, to Vanessa, this girl, who had always been confident, looked much haggard at the moment.
Maybe she didn't even notice it herself.
Vanessa subconsciously grabbed Kolotia's hand and wanted to run with her.
However, when she looked up, she saw a pair of burgundy eyes.
"Lucky Fortune Teller Kia"
Vanessa felt as if she had seen this girl in a maid outfit.
"Hurry up and run away~ Lord Kolotia wants you to leave with them?"
"Uh...... Well...... Yes......"

"In the end, did you make this decision?"
"Well, Sister Black Cat...... Please leave too, and then apologize to the master for me...... Didn't solve the problem in the best way. ”
"Oh meow, in the end, you are willing to call me senior sister. Really...... As a result, I still can't show off to others. ”
#8
"It's just the two of us? Biffin. ”
"That's for sure, from the moment I was born, I belonged to you completely. But...... Is it really not thinking about it anymore? ”
"Or maybe you can't think about it, right? Now this situation? ”
"If you don't want to, Shadow-sama's side won't make such a request. No, to be exact, you better run away first......"
"And then the whole of Sun City is used as a burial? At this point, I'm a little bit ...... about this kind of thing I can't do it. ”
The role of this underground facility is actually known to the self-proclaimed "shadow" of the Cunzài.
There are actually quite a few "eruption points" of the spiritual vein, but there are not many eruption points that have really reached this scale. And this facility built under the city of the sun is essentially set up to maintain its stability.
In such a sophisticated facility, a control center is placed in it, but it is discarded at will. Naturally, there will only be one consequence of this kind of behavior, and that is collapse.
Strictly speaking, Lisa did not die. Although a large number of souls flowed through her body, in order for her to be able to control the entire system, Lisa's soul was actually quite strictly protected. If the "shadow" is willing, it is not difficult to "resurrect" her, although it is troublesome.
The experience of this time has probably become something like a vague nightmare.
"Saved your life again, my 'sister'?"
Gently pulled Lisa out of the facility and cleaned up the various infusion lines attached to her. Collotia rubbed her cheek against Lisa's cheek slightly.
"I'll leave it to you, Biffin."
The loyal maid lady nodded and took Lisa's body.
"Relax, Biffin, at least we can see each other often, right? No, it's a little bit ...... right now Bye? Don't look back. ”
The rate of collapse of underground facilities has suddenly accelerated.
However, it was able to settle down quickly.
But this is also a natural thing, compared to the half-baked core of "Lisa", the core called "Kolotia", the performance is countless times better.
Under the "shadow" operation, there will be no problems with a single qiē.
Although I said that I would have to rest for a while, I was able to wake up anyway.
By that time—
Probably not so busy.
#ending
"Welcome to the 'outside', Kolotia."
#
Thank you for your continued support.
Does it feel like a half-baked story?
Yes...... In fact, it's a half-baked story. Because the tea itself can only be regarded as a half-baked author.
The ending doesn't write the story to death. It's okay to think of it as the ending of the "first part", and it's okay to think of it as an open-ended ending.
After a while...... (Probably in a day?) I'm going to write a caputuro-ending or something, and it's not much to look forward to, but please check it out.
