Volume 12 Chapter 28 Return
Seeing that Durand still shook his head, Manus asked awe-inspiringly: "Duland!" You can't destroy this Rochester without killing me, do you want to face two Rochesters who are close to the strongest at the same time in the future! ”
Facing Manus's eyes, Durand clenched his fists, and his face gradually turned pale.
Now, Durand suddenly found that he is still vulnerable, or rather, still dependent. Dependence on Manus, dependence on Thoreau, and dependence on the ancestor Lord Learmons. It is precisely because of the existence of these people that Durand feels like he is not fighting alone.
Becoming a king is often accompanied by a great sense of loneliness, having to digest all the emotions and pain alone.
Deep down, Durand always thinks that in front of him, there are Learmons, Thoreau, and Manus. These people lead themselves and share a considerable part of the responsibility and pressure for themselves, and these people are Duland's reliance.
But now?
Rochester's deity may have won, then Master Thoreau may have lost, or even died.
Ancestor Learmons had already traveled to the Upper Tree World.
Manus, the only one who is still by his side, asks to kill him with his own hands!
If you kill Manus, you will really be alone.
The huge sense of loneliness was overwhelming, accompanied by the surging uneasiness and fear, almost drowning, crushing, and devouring Duland's body and mind!
"Lord Manus, don't ...... Don't push me! Durand took a step back and growled, "I can't do it, no, I really can't do it!" ”
Manus stepped forward and said, "It's not me you're going to kill now, it's Rochester!" ”
Duland's face turned pale.
Similarly, in order to achieve a goal, Rochester can sacrifice a lot of lives and a lot of chess pieces without blinking an eyelid.
Durand also wants to accomplish his goals. But it is precisely the sacrifice that he hates the most.
An outcast.
One resists losing.
By now, Durand can vaguely understand why Rochester suddenly killed Milo just now. Not because Milo is useless, but because Rochester is a provocation to Duland.
He wanted to completely anger Durand and make Durand who he used to be, to prove that his crazy path was right, to prove that his sick choice was normal.
Minutes and seconds passed.
Manus was a little anxious, clutched his heart in some pain, and said, "Duland...... Hurry up, I'm going to be unable to hold it up. You're going to take me for Rochester, and you're going to avenge Milo! Rochester has gone mad, and he will take Sendlow to go crazy with him and end up perishing together. Hurry up! Duland, I need to use your judgment power to completely pull this Rochester to death! ”
Seeing that Durand was still retreating, Manus shouted: "Duland!! Do you want to kill all the battle mages in order not to kill me?! ”
Durand's whole body shook violently.
Because he didn't want to kill Manus, he killed all the battle mages......
It's like I don't want to use a sword soul. And indirectly killed Milo!
This is the harsh reality that the king must face. Many times, the king does not subjectively want to abandon a person, but passively.
And the ultimate goal is to protect more people.
Durand subconsciously raised his hand. The brilliant purple power of judgment condensed, turned into a knife shape, and aimed at Manus's heart.
Manus finally had an approving look on his face, with a hint of relief that was about to be relieved. Nodding his head, he said, "That's good, this is the king of battle mages that I recognize!" Durand. Learmons, henceforth. I'll leave it to you. ”
The next moment, the blade pierced Manus's heart.
……
……
It's raining in Sendlow today.
Rain cats and dogs.
Nightwing stood in front of the Divine Hall of the Wing Battle Fortress, looking up at the rain curtain that was hidden by the fortress's shield, and his heart was cold and uneasy for no reason.
"Did you find someone?" She asked.
"Not yet." The wind god on the side said in a low voice.
The wind god had taken off his mask, revealing a beautiful face that was gentle and graceful. The face that had been destroyed in the early stages of the war had been healed by Catherine, who had advanced in strength. But this face is full of anxious waiting, intense uneasiness, and doubts at this time.
- Manus and Milo are missing.
And through Guò Dao Soul, it seems that something is wrong with Duland.
Nightwing turned his head and looked at the sword soul on the side: "Can't you find Durand by teleporting in both directions?" ”
Knife Soul shook his head regretfully: "I'm sorry, the initiative is with Duland, not me." And for some reason, my connection with him has become weak since just now...... Hey, wait! ”
The sword soul seemed to sense something, and suddenly turned its head to look in one direction, only to see a figure gradually clear in the heavy rain curtain outside the fortress wall.
The man was drenched in the rain and walked into the fortress, drenched all over, with his face hanging down, his hair sticking to his forehead in strands, and he was indescribably lonely.
Durand is back.
The wind god looked surprised, but her joy quickly turned to panic, and she screamed, "Manus! Then he rushed towards Durand like crazy.
Durand is holding two people in his hands, one left and one right, Manus in his left hand and Milo in his right hand. There was no rain on the two of them, and when Durand walked through the rain curtain, he protected the two very well, but in the eyes of the wind god, both Manus and Milo were already out of breath!
"What's going on? What happened to Manus? What the hell is going on?! Anemo rushed in front of Durand and roared almost out of shape.
"Lord Manus is not dead." Durand raised his eyes, handed Manus's body over, put it in the hands of the Anemo, and said, "But when he will wake up, I don't know." ”
The wind god took Manus, looked at it carefully, and found that there was indeed a faint breath, and it seemed that he had fallen into a deep coma, and his strength had greatly decreased, becoming no different from an ordinary void god.
Durand said no more, and walked past Anemo in silence to Nightwing.
Nightwing glanced at the calm and serene beautiful face of Milo, who was being hugged by Duland, smiled, and asked very easily, "My sister is also in a coma, just like Lord Manus?" ”
Durand was silent.
"......" Nightwing didn't speak again, covering her mouth hard, and her shoulders began to shake uncontrollably. Tears welled up in her eyes silently.
Durand's cheeks twitched twice, and silently handed Milo, who was already cold, into Nightwing's arms.
A moment later, Nightwing's heart-rending cries rang out in front of the Hall of the Gods. She hugged her sister's body tightly, clutching it tightly, as if she would lose it completely as soon as she let go, as if she was holding on to the last glimmer of hope, as if she could come back to life by holding Milo like this. And Durand couldn't even say a word of apology.
Because the result is decided, there is no point in saying anything more.
"Sword Soul, you come with me." Durand raised his eyes. looked at the sky, and then whispered to the silent sword soul on the side.
The sword soul was stunned, then nodded, and followed Durand into the air, and flew out of the protective wall of the Yongzhan fortress again, flew out of the rain curtain, flew over the clouds, and flew up to the extreme height of Sendroe, all the way to the top of the plane.
The Knife Spirit followed Durand. After hesitating for a moment, he asked in a low voice, "What happened?" ”
Duland's face was calm and he said, "See for yourself." ”
Saying that, Durand opened up his body and mind, which made the knife soul stunned for a moment. Because it's been a long time, Durand doesn't allow the sword soul to enter his heart.
What the hell is going on today?
The sword soul's gaze flickered slightly, turning into a purple streamer and merging into Duland's heart. Presented in front of the sword soul. It is no longer a triangular system in memory, but a pentagonal system.
The asana occupies a corner.
True eye style occupies a corner.
On the third corner, the self-style is temporarily absent. That's where the sword soul should be.
And on the extra fourth and fifth horns, there is a two-winged and four-eyed dwarf made of black blood, and a red-gold light man!!
In the underground hall of the Right Celestial Realm, Durand did not choose to kill Manus in the end, but pierced Manus's heart with a blade while trying his best not to destroy his life.
Then, Durand devoured the black blood in Manus's body little by little, although in the process, Manus was severely injured, fell into a coma, and lost all his divine fire and cultivation, but it still reserved a trace of the possibility for Manus to wake up again and start all over again.
The black blood in Bing Ning's body, the black blood in Manus's body, and the black blood in Milo's body all fused into one in Duland's body and turned into one of the corners of the pentagonal system of this matter.
And the Twin Heavens Curse Light Man on the fifth horn is used to balance the power of the black dwarves.
In the end, Durand still thinks of a way to save Milo and restore her to the identity of a battle mage, but unfortunately she can no longer see it.
"So, I'm not really fit to be a leader." Durand looked at the crystal wall at the top of the approaching plane and silently thought, "I...... I still can't give up, I can't give up Lord Manus. ”
Durand is not Rochester after all, and he can't be ruthless.
Neither is Durand, Manus, who does not live up to perfect rationality.
Durand said to the Knife Soul, "Du, join me and kill Rochester." ”
The tone is very flat.
The sword soul that had not completely recovered from the shock heard a monstrous killing intent from these simple words.
Kill Rochester with me.
I remember that this is the first time Durand has said that he is going to kill someone. In the past, Duland, even if he had murderous intentions, would not say it.
The Sword Soul was silent for a while, then smiled and said loudly, "As long as you want, I'm fine!" I'm your doppelganger, your weapon, your part. ”
Durand nodded, his figure flashed, and he flew out of the dimensional crystal wall with the sword soul, standing on top of Sendelow's crystal wall.
It is amazing that this place is already outside the plane, but there is no space turbulence, no time turbulence, and no energy frenzy, but the clouds are light and breezy. Massive amounts of energy were surging, colliding, and all of them were blocked by an invisible soft force.
In the center of this calm and serenity, there stood a back, clear and emaciated.
Durand took a breath, stepped forward, came behind the figure, and bowed, "You're back, Master Thoreau." ”
