Chapter 117: The Boss at the End
When dusk fell, Ian finally arranged the aftermath of Phil's explanation. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Although there were some twists and turns in the process, the result was still satisfactory after all. As for what strange rumors will come out in the future, he can't care so much.
Next, he must prepare for the big boss of the final level.
If you want to go outside the circle and secretly follow the investigation team, there is one person who will never be able to get around.
He had to convince Fei'er tonight to get her to agree to his decision. Otherwise, Ian reckoned that Phil would definitely do anything to stop his actions. The worst possible outcome is to have your leg broken and left at home.
Therefore, since dusk, after completing all the preparations and carrying the necessary emergency items that do not affect his movements, he sat directly in the dormitory prepared by the academy for Fei'er, adjusting his mood while quietly waiting for the night to fall.
Early this morning, the investigation team organized by the Grand Duke has set off from the city of the Northern Regions and headed towards the target location. Ian knew that Phil must have been secretly following them, secretly protecting them. But he was still a little uneasy after all, not because he was worried about the investigation team, but because he was worried about Fei'er herself.
From the first time he went to the Grand Duke's Mansion, Ian already knew that Phil's health might not be much better than his own. He didn't know what the specific situation of the other party was, and whether it would affect the play of strength. He only knew that although he had hidden dangers on his body, he could do his best when necessary, as long as he didn't encounter a catastrophe-level monster, he should still be able to help her share some of the pressure.
By now, Ian knew how Phil had taken herself to the depths of the Purgatory Wasteland at night.
As long as it was night, she could go anywhere she had been, and find anyone she had ever met. In the past three years, she has used this ability to unbelievably cross thousands of miles and throw herself directly out of the circle from the Northern Regions.
That's why Ian chose to wait for her here today.
Since the early hours of the morning, the investigation team has traveled a day's journey, and now they are directly from the northern regions, and it will take a long time to find their traces. Since Fei'er has such a convenient mind, and has promised to go back at night, why don't you take a "hitchhike" again?
Thinking so, Ian sat directly on the bed, slowly closed his eyes, and began to recuperate.
If you want to convince Fei'er to be the boss at the end of the level, you must use the sword to speak tonight.
......
The wheel of time turns, and the night settles.
In the silence, Ian suddenly felt a mysterious fluctuation coming from the darkness. He opened his eyes suddenly, and was shocked to find that the space in front of him was like a balloon that was constantly being inflated, and it was visibly expanding to the naked eye at a certain point in the void.
"It's ......"
As he was in awe, a pitch-black sword tip suddenly appeared in mid-air, from top to bottom, slashing through.
With this sword, a sulfurous evening breeze suddenly blew into the narrow and closed room, making Ian frown sharply, but also feeling extremely nostalgic.
The one-person-tall balloon seemed to be cut open from the inside by the sword, revealing a narrow opening, and like a curtain, reflecting the wave-like ripples of the Dao, slowly opening to the sides. The wasteland, dust, sand, rocks, and a thin figure with a sword in pitch black suddenly came into Ian's eyes from between the curtains.
A smile tugged at the corners of Ian's mouth, and he felt like he was facing a movie screen from his previous life.
The pitch-black figure took a step forward after a slight startle, and it was as if the characters in the movie had stepped into reality from the screen, from another world to this world.
"Welcome back. ”
As the vision of space faded as Phil passed, Ian exhaled lightly and greeted him from the bedside.
"Looks like you're going to 'skip school'. Glancing at Ian's clothes and the slightly bulging bag around his waist, Phil immediately guessed what he meant.
"To be exact, I was going to skip school. Ian smiled, not avoiding the question.
"Looks like I need to give you a good 'warning'. ”
And so it was......
Ian raised an eyebrow, he had been mentally prepared for the girl's reaction as early as when he said this.
"Fei'er, how did you become a Juggernaut in the first place?" Ian asked with a smile, "Or is there any Juggernaut who achieved it in this kind of training that is limited to a dangerous level?"
"Your situation is special, I will not agree to you going outside the circle now. ”
"You will. Ian smiled, but his eyes were extremely determined: "It's my freedom to urge sword intent or not, I can choose to let myself reach the limit in advance." ”
"You!"
Fei'er was suddenly stunned, and her voice suddenly turned cold: "You are threatening me!" The girl was really angry at this moment, she never thought that Ian would be so stubborn in this matter, and even gambled with his own life.
"I'm not going to threaten you. Ian shook his head, looked at Phil and smiled, "You should know, Phil. I'm afraid of death, I'm more afraid of death than many people. ”
The girl was silent for a moment, then nodded, and after several years of getting along, they all knew each other's temperament very well.
"But you know what?" Ian looked up at the night sky outside the windowsill and chuckled, "This morning, I actually had the idea of directly triggering all sword intent and seeking a breakthrough in the moment of life and death. ”
"I didn't think about dying at that moment, on the contrary, I never wanted to live like I did at that moment. ”
"Seriously, I'm glad someone stopped me at the time. But at the same time, I'm just as glad that I dared to make that choice. ”
"I once died in a daze, but after facing life and death with real clarity, I found that I felt like I had taken off a heavy shackle, and my whole person was like a new life. ”
"I suddenly realized that I was no longer as afraid of death as I used to be. ”
"So......" Fei'er took off her hood and let the moonlight outside the window fall on her, and there was no longer the coldness of her words: "What did you find?"
"I used to think that I was just a pseudo-sword master, but I didn't expect that even the realm of a sword master would be discounted. But from today, I'm really going to start going my own way, Phil. ”
"Let's have a fight. Fei'er said indifferently: "Only use pure swordsmanship!"
"That's what I'm here for. Ian smiled, dizzying in the moonlight.
