In the neatly arranged old Japanese eaves, in the courtyard that was cleaned by the lights, stood Cao Cao with a gun, and members of the Heroic Faction who existed in all directions, such as the eaves of the roof and the corner of the garden. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

And the most striking of all, the beautiful woman with nine fox tails behind her, wearing a gorgeous kimono but with an expressionless face and empty eyes.

Princess Yasaka, the nine-tailed fox.

"Have you already defeated the Assassin who used the Forbidden Hand? Even though we are only among the lowest-ranking or middling artifact holders, it is amazing that you can defeat them even though they are forbidden. ”

Cao Cao's tone was full of admiration and gentleness.

Very strangely mild.

"Haven't you contacted Su Mo's seniors and Roseway yet?"

Yicheng had a wry smile on his face - according to the original plan, it should have been Su Mo who came to cover, and then they directly snatched Yasaka's, however....... Whether it was before Nijo Castle or after everyone gathered and defeated multiple enemies at Nijo Castle, the strongest support never appeared.

"No ......."

Yuto shook his head.

As if hearing their words, Cao Cao laughed and said, "Do you want to find Su Mo?" Indeed, he is strong - so you think I didn't take that into account? ”

"What do you mean?!"

"Of course, there is a special stage for him to fight the best battles - it is filled with the strongest fighting legions under our command."

"Combat Legion? Hmph, in front of Su Mo's predecessors, it's just cannon fodder used to warm up at most! Have you forgotten how those monsters died before?! ”

Issei shouted as he glared at him.

"Of course I remember—but what if the legion was replaced and I could only hold out for an hour under a siege of twenty horses without opening the forbidden hand?"

“——！！！！”

There was a gasp.

"Not to mention ......."

Cao Cao smiled gracefully: "I have prepared all for him - one hundred and sixty-two horses!" ”

..........................................

The clock was set back twenty minutes ago.

"Hey, hey, Cao Cao, do you know what this thing is?"

Su Mo summoned Esther, and Katsuyuki's white shirt was already dyed with inky black patterns, and her eyes were covered with pitch-black lines, and the roaring magic slapped the lichen and hunted.

- Just as soon as he opened, he went into a state of almost full strength.

Roseweiser beside her looked at Su Mo who was like a great enemy in a bit of a daze-she didn't understand why Su Mo was so nervous, obviously there were just some monsters around her that were similar to miscellaneous soldiers, and she was confident that she could clear the field by herself, although these monsters were strangely emitting a golden phosphorescence.

But since even Su Mo was so nervous, things shouldn't be as simple as she imagined.

"You say this?"

And behind countless monsters, Cao Cao stood behind a light mask formed by pure magic with a spear in his hand and looked at Su Mo very indifferently: "It seems that you know? It's the energy crystallization we found a while ago outside of a dimensional rift that opened by chance - and I gave it to Leonardo, and found it to be a very good thing, and while the number of monsters made out of it was small and quite difficult to control, each one was very powerful. ”

"In other words, you didn't even know what this thing was, so you rashly used its power - looking for death?"

Perhaps he was the only one present who could perceive what kind of terrible aura emanated from the hundreds of monsters around him—it was destruction.

"Mastering the unknown is the challenge."

Cao Cao stretched out his hand and smiled at Su Mo as if he wanted to hold something: "And I have this confidence." ”

"You know a P!!!"

Su Mo roared angrily, leaving Roseweiser and Cao Cao stunned.

But instead of continuing, he quickly controlled his emotions: "You will play with fire and set yourself on fire." ”

"No, playing with fire and self-immolation will only belong to the weak - I don't believe you don't understand this truth."

Cao Cao was still confident: "But unfortunately, we haven't studied where such power comes from so far, and using up all the crystals can only create more than 100 monsters - that's right, this is a space specially prepared for you: after all, we don't want your biggest variable to affect our experiments." ”

"In other words, you're not going to fight me?"

"It's a shame – but the number one goal right now is the Great Red."

"You're going to summon it?"

"Then defeat it."

"You-"

Cao Cao didn't wait for Su Mo to finish speaking, just nodded at him before turning around and leaving this place from the teleportation magic array.

"If you can get out of this place safely, I'll do my best in the next fight, and this time- I'm sorry."

“......”

“......”

After a moment of silence.

"Get out? I can get out right now. ”

Su Mo whispered - although after Cao Cao left, the monsters who were originally just exuding a tyrannical aura and stood in place finally moved their steps, with the momentum of mountain rain coming.

"Rose Weiser, you go first."

Su Mo whispered, "I'll split the space and get out of here." ”

"Why don't you go? Are these monsters tricky? ”

Although the former Valkyrie Lady's face was still a little ugly because she was drunk, the fighting spirit on her body was still cold.

"It's not a tricky question, I'm going to have to take them out and investigate something from them........"

Su Mo's eyes were very sharp, and his face was as heavy as water.

"Then I'm not leaving."

“....... What? ”

Su Modden was stunned, and then stared at Roseweiser with a strange expression: "Don't make trouble." ”

"This kind of thing is obviously not strong at all, but Cao Cao has not studied it thoroughly, but you attach so much importance to it....... I'm going to cry if I miss my self-esteem like that!! ”

Shiny - this girl's eyes are shining!!

Su Mo felt that the beautiful girl in front of him seemed to have been suddenly awakened to something terrible - so he just swallowed in a daze: "Okay - it's okay for you to stay here, but I want to remind you of one thing first." ”

"What?"

"While it's true that this thing is much less intense than I had predicted, and has almost lost its ability to infect, you have to remember one thing - it must not be too far away from me!"

“....... Huh? ”

"This thing is called Will to Destroy, and it is the most vicious enemy that has corrupted the world."

"I've never heard of ........"

"Then I'll just say this - the most important reason why the current Demon King, Sazex Lucifer, will stay in this world as a Demon King is to prevent the invasion of the will to destroy! It was far more terrifying than the Infinite Dragon God and the Great Red, although it was only a little damage to the power, and it had been purified by the power of the world itself to the point that even the most basic infectious ability could not be used....... But its owner is still lurking in this world, and I want to find it. ”

After all, if Su Mo didn't guess wrong, it should be the will of destruction that appeared before Orpheus and would have used Zhu Yue and Estes who had made the moonfall so seriously injured that they had been in a coma until now.

Absolute high-order will to destroy.
