Chapter 60: Crisis
In the secret realm of No. 5, the wind is howling and the sky is cloudy.
Li Luo and Old Lop are still running wildly towards the human base, but after yesterday's successive misfortunes, Li Luo is obviously much smarter now, and he is following behind Old Lop, almost stepping on each other's footprints, and never relaxing.
Half a day later, the two stopped to rest, and they didn't think that less than ten minutes after sitting down, a figure flashed in the sky, their eyes swept over, and the sound of angry reprimands resounded in the sky.
"You two are still resting here, do you know what crime you have committed?"
The two men on the ground woke up and hurriedly looked up.
Li Luo couldn't recognize the person's appearance clearly, and didn't say anything, but Old Luo was in a hurry, waving his cigarette stick and shouting: "Lieutenant General Xianshui, there is a reason for everything!
Lieutenant General Xianshui's figure is very tall, although standing in the air at the moment, it is not so easy to distinguish, but it is definitely more than one meter nine, but he is different from Lieutenant Colonel Hao Bo, who is tall and strong, his body is more symmetrical, and what is even more impressive is the cyan birthmark on his eyebrows, shaped like a crystal pattern, which is almost unforgettable.
At this time, Xianshui's eyes were full of anger, staring at Li Luo and Lao Luo on the ground.
"Hmph, I hope your reasons are convincing enough!"
As he spoke, two thin streams of wind-based magic elements shot out from his hands, wrapping around the waists of Li Luo and Old Lopu respectively.
The next moment, the three of them flew towards the base, extremely fast.
Old Lop seemed to be in a hurry, and on the way back to the base, he couldn't wait to tell about being kidnapped by a mysterious powerhouse. After hearing this, Xianshui didn't believe or disbelieve, but said that someone would investigate and verify, but the look on his face was obviously softened a lot because of this.
In the evening, the three of them arrived at the base smoothly, and Xianshui didn't say a word, and directly led them out of the No. 5 secret realm.
When he came out of the safe zone at the base of the island, Admiral Ukyo was already waiting at the exit.
When he saw Li Luo, he didn't get angry or scold, but his voice was very trembling.
"Li Luo, you have disappointed me!
Such words made Li Luo more uncomfortable than scolding, his lips trembled, and he wanted to explain, but seeing the indescribable pain on Youjing's face, he finally lowered his head silently.
"I'm sorry!"
Seeing that he was willing to take responsibility, Xianshui didn't say so many reasons, but took the initiative to interject and said: "General, according to them, he has been kidnapped by the powerful people of the hidden world in the past few days!"
"Whatever the reason, but the final result is that we lost the Four Prisons Challenge!" Admiral Youkyo shook his head helplessly, with an indissoluble sorrow and sadness on his face.
"Defeated! so fast?" Lieutenant General Xianshui was shocked and said in disbelief, "Isn't there supposed to be two more rounds according to time?"
"It's true that there are two more rounds, but there is no hope!"
Ukyo felt the bitterness and helplessness that he hadn't experienced for many years, and his eyes were gloomy. "In the first round of treasure hunting, four people from Purgatory participated, Ye Long died, and the points ranked third! In the second round of hunting, three people from Purgatory participated, Cheng Feng and Zhao Li died one after another, leaving Shi Wenlong to fight alone, and the points were at the end! Now that the two rounds have passed, the total points of Purgatory are 48, even compared to the third-ranked Black Prison, there is a difference of 12 points, do you think there is still a chance with Shi Wenlong and Li Luo alone?"
"How can there be such a big gap, three people died in two rounds, this doesn't make sense!" Xianshui frowned, his face full of doubt and anger.
"Of course, the gap is not so big, but the reality is that Shi Wushu was transferred to the hell training camp by the military department more than a month ago, plus the black prison training camp where Ji Guang is located, the two parties have joined forces to suppress our purgatory, it is not like fighting for points at all, but to kill!" Youjing said in a deep voice.
"Is this fair?" said Xianshui, angrily.
Youjing looked at him and asked bitterly: "What can that be? Now that General Lei Li is missing and Marshal Zhao Yiyun is not there, who else will care so much? It is a fact that Purgatory is in decline, and it is also a fact that the overall strength of the elite students in the Four Prisons Challenge is weak, who do you think will be on our side?"
Fairy water is silent!
After a long while, he asked in a trembling voice, "Is the result of defeat decided?"
"It's set!"
Youkyo nodded, his expression a little painful. "If Purgatory takes the last place, then the establishment of the Purgatory base will be cancelled, and the four prisons will be changed to three prisons from now on, and the island base will be taken over by the four major legions, and the three regular legions and one elite legion under Purgatory, except for those above the rank of major general and non-combat personnel, the rest will all be assigned to the legions of all parties as the advance team, and it will be up to heaven to live or die in the future!"
"Damn!" Xianshui clenched his fists, and the green tendons on his forehead were clearly visible.
Youjing didn't say anything more, and turned his head to look at Li Luo.
"Do you know what the other four students of Purgatory have to pay because of your absence? If there is one more, then we have every chance to compete for the third place, but the result is that Purgatory has a tragic ending, are you worthy of everyone's dedication and cultivation to you?"
"I ......"
Li Luo gritted his teeth, but he couldn't say anything.
Youjing didn't look at him again, and walked away slowly, his back looking a little desolate.
"Now you need to state the reason for your disappearance in the past few days, and after verification, if it is true, then you will be sent to the advance camp, and I will be suppressed for ten years in vain!"
"Ten years of suppression in vain?" Li Luo was puzzled.
Xianshui sighed and glanced at him.
"General Youkyo will exchange his points for exercises for you to use, then the Linglong Pagoda will sense it and send the information to all parties. How many points does he consume for you, then he will be suppressed by the Linglong Pagoda for the corresponding number of years, and he must take the initiative to be tortured within a year, otherwise the Linglong Pagoda will personally use his power to kill people, and its power is so great that no one in the world can stop him! In fact, less than three days after Admiral Youjing exchanged for items for you, the military department had already deprived him of his rank and position as a general, but it has not been made public for the time being, and Admiral Youjing only has more than ten years to live in total because of the injuries on his body!
Li Luo was stunned!
It's no wonder that when Youjing revealed that he wanted to exchange items for him, the two instructors Hao Bo and Fengyu were so shocked, no wonder they said that the price was too great!
An indescribable guilt invaded his heart, and he reached out to call the lonely figure, but he really didn't know what to say!
There are no words that can appease Ukyo at this time......
"General Youjing really regards you as the successor of Admiral Lu Ming, as the successor of Purgatory!" Lieutenant General Xianshui's voice carried an indescribable sentimentality.
There was silence here, and Ukyo's pace was very slow and heavy, and no one could understand what he was feeling at the moment......
Suddenly, the sound of a "beep horn" sounded suddenly, it was the sound of old Lop sucking his smoking mouth.
"Whew!" he let out a long smoke from his mouth, breaking the silence. "Li Luo, since both horizontal and vertical are death, why don't you fight? There are still two rounds, it's not that there is no chance, it's better to die standing than to die on your knees!"
These words seemed to be a flame of hope, instantly igniting Li Luo's silent heart, he clenched his fists, and shouted at the back of Admiral Youjing from afar: "General, let me go to the Four Prisons Challenge again, there are still two rounds, and there is still hope!"
"Hope?"
Youjing's footsteps paused, as if he was asking himself, and he was also asking Li Luo: "Is there anything else?"
"Isn't the spirit of purgatory to move forward forever for the sake of mankind? Whether there is hope or not, I want to participate, and it is better to die in dignity than to die in humiliation!" Li Luo said categorically.
Youjing was silent, quietly staring into Li Luo's eyes.
After a long time, he finally nodded.
"Well, although the result is predictable, at least you haven't lost the dignity of a warrior!"
