Chapter Seventy-Seven: Appearance

After finally learning the cause of Lilith's death, Ian's mood suddenly turned terribly bad. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

He discovers that everything that is happening in the Northern Regions may be just a conspiracy by someone or an organization.

After a moment's thought, he couldn't help but think of the Black Balance Society.

Because he found that among the many events that had happened before, there was a coincidence that he could not figure out until now.

At the beginning, the reason why he was able to find the injured Lilith was only because Alvin inadvertently saved her and told him that the other party was at Tina's house.

But what will the black balance rely on?

How did they know that Lilith was at Tina's house, and that it happened to be a few days before the Pansemo in Lilith's body ran over to take her away?

This is too much of a coincidence.

Ian felt as if he was getting closer to the truth.

If his current assumption was correct, then one of the 32-man trial team must be a member of the Black Balance Society. And the most suspicious of them is undoubtedly the other mentor in the team, the man named Lawrence.

He decided to follow his hunch and continue to look down the timeline.

He knew that when he encountered the team, only nine of them, including Lilith, were still alive. He firmly believes that Camilla and the others will not have a problem. So, he wanted to see for himself how the others had died, especially how the mentor named Lawrence had died in the first place.

No, maybe I should say—

Was he really dead or faked?

With this in mind, Ian began to observe the movements of the people in the camp.

He noticed that Adolf seemed to be at odds with Lawrence, and upon closer he realized that they were arguing over whether or not to return.

Adolf thinks they've been too aggressive, and it's time to return. Lawrence, on the other hand, was visibly unimpressed, believing that Adolf was too timid and cowardly, and that as the Academy's trial mentor, he was so old-fashioned and conservative. And such overprotection simply does not bring real grinding to the trainees.

From their words, Ian found that such an argument was clearly not once or twice. And the first few times, Lawrence obviously used this reason to convince Adolf.

But this time it seems to be a little different. After a few retorts, Lawrence suddenly gave up his position, as if he was extremely helpless to be persuaded by Adolf.

Then, he woke up the students who had not yet woken up one by one, and with disdain for Adolf, he announced the decision to return with little interest.

The trainees who received this instruction were obviously a little depressed, they had already survived the initial stage of not adapting to the environment, and they had tasted the sweetness of the previous hunt, which was the time when their self-confidence was extremely inflated.

However, the instructions of the trial instructor are inviolable, and the time for the start of school is indeed getting closer. The reluctant students could only begin to pack their bags slowly.

However, at this moment, what they didn't know was that the goddess of doom had already watched their figures, and the demons who had been attracted and called by the Ponsei had surrounded them from all directions.

Ian sighed secretly, he knew that by the time the group heard the sound of the demons trampling the earth, it would be too late.

What happened after that was just as Ian had expected.

A large number of demons surrounded the trial team on their way back, and several of the students were torn apart almost instantly.

The huge casualties caused the whole team to panic.

And at this time, Ian also saw the scene he wanted to see.

While Adolf slaughtered the demons and stabilized the students, Lawrence took off the Heart Elephant Seal on his chest without warning, as if he deliberately exuded his own mood swings, and the people who broke away from the trial team looked as if he was going to sacrifice himself and lure away some of the demons, so that everyone could have a greater chance of escape.

If it is done above board, this act does seem to be fine, and even makes those who see it awe him. But Ian suddenly laughed out loud when he saw this.

Because what he did was so subtle that he was like a thief. It seems that the reason for this action is just to have an explanation if someone finds him fleeing.

"This bastard knows what attracts the demon, he's just on the run!"

Ian grinded his teeth hard, and he jumped up, trying to know where the other man would flee. However, Lawrence seemed to be drowned in the demons the moment he left the group, so that Ian could not find him at all.

Suddenly losing the other party's figure, Ian couldn't help but stomp his foot in hatred. But he already knew in his heart that this mentor named Lawrence was definitely not dead!

From then on, Ian began to observe the actions of the others. Although he had confirmed in his heart that Lawrence was the real culprit, his usual caution made him unwilling to miss any details.

Two days went by in a flash.

The trial team was finally reduced to 9 people.

Ian watched them hide in the caverns of the Dragon's Sleep Valley and heard Lilith shouting "I want to go home!".

At this moment, he already knew that the father of this blonde girl was a famous scholar in the Northern Regions. I'm afraid that the reason why she is so loud is also because she hopes that her erudite father can find a ray of life for her.

It's a pity that all this has become history, and what happened in the past cannot be changed after all.

Time passed, and watching Camilla slowly rise into the air under the cover of everyone, Ian suddenly jumped up and followed.

He wondered, how exactly should he play in this world?

But to his disappointment, until Camilla fell to the ground and saw that she was about to be killed by the bad demon, "himself" did not appear for a long time.

Seeing this scene, Ian frowned suddenly, and then a gleam flashed in his eyes.

"Excuse me?"

After muttering to himself, Ian suddenly thought of a possibility. At once, he leaped forward, his sword unsheathed.

The sound of the sword groaning suddenly appeared at this moment, and in an instant, all the demons turned in his direction with red eyes. Seeing the demons' actions like this, the corners of Ian's mouth couldn't help but draw a smile.

"Sure enough, it's time for me to play. ”

With a chuckle, a glimmer of realization rose in Ian's heart, he already knew how to kill Lilith in the Scourge body.

Although he didn't know how this world was formed, he had apparently replaced the projection that was supposed to appear with his real body.

As long as you go step by step with the original plot, you will inevitably come to the place where you made your choice in the first place.

Perhaps, it will all come to an end there.
