Chapter 330: Fight to the Death
"So, you're going to find your friend, right?"
When the echo of Urusus appeared, Lin Qiu felt that the entire Theophalan shook a few times, and the buildings around the manor shifted, and the pedestrians on the street stood in place as if they were completely still.
There was a faint thunder in the dark sky, and everything was like a harbinger of a storm.
The backs of Eric and King Brydon disappeared around the corner, and the torches on both sides turned blood-red, covering Theopheran with a blood-colored carpet. Ulusos did not stop its chattering tone, but the thick and deep tone that originally belonged to Goebon gradually became sharper, and finally, it formed a voice that was extremely familiar to Lin Qiu.
"I'm jealous of you. β
"You have many friends, and when you're in trouble, there's always someone to help you......"
"Don't worry, if you want to see her, I can help you. β
The sound of thunder became clearer, Lin Qiu found that the pedestrians on the street disappeared one by one, and in just a blink of an eye, the surrounding scene changed, and Lin Qiu found himself standing in the square, but compared to the first time, the current square was empty.
It wasn't long before he heard the sound of stray footsteps.
The first guard arrived.
Then came the second team, then the third team, and soon the guards occupied the entire square, and everyone looked nervous and stared at the high judgment platform. Lin Qiu only then noticed Alyssa's figure, but the latter was facing away from him, and he vaguely sensed that something seemed to be wrong.
"We can always ask our friends for help, don't we?"
Urusus's echo suddenly laughed, poignant and sharp, and sounded like a transposition in Alyssa's voice.
At least Lin Qiu had never heard Alyssa speak in such a tone.
"But before that, I had a few small doubts. β
"You don't seem to know your friend very well, and as we all know, she is a Knight of the Round Table, who lived through the Hundred Years' War and is called a hero by the people of Holutia. But ......"
"Have you ever seen ...... A war hero who hasn't killed anyone?"
Urusos' voice paused for a long time.
Alyssa on the judgment bench suddenly straightened up, thunder slicing through the sky, and a torrential rain fell out of nowhere.
"Looks like you understand what I mean. β
"By the way, in her eyes, you're just an ordinary officer, and the officers she's killed on the battlefield may not even be able to count herself, right?"
"So...... I guess you don't want to see her that way right now, do you?"
......
Alyssa on the judgment table turned around, and the magic pattern had even spread to her face.
All along, Lin Qiu knew that Alyssa didn't like to use her abilities, and she was always used to ending battles with sword skills.
Alyssa said that sword skills are always easy to control, but engraving is not. Alyssa had never told him about the war, and Urussos was right about that, he had known Alyssa since she became a member of the Inquisition.
Lin Qiu vaguely guessed something, but every time he stopped thinking about it.
Alyssa on the judgment table slowly opened her eyes, her pupils turning a strange red. She looked at the guards who surrounded her, but instead of drawing her sword, she slowly raised her slender index fingerβ
After another thunderclap, Lin Qiu seemed to see Theophalan's clouds, and the black shadow behind the clouds.
"Since you have chosen to side with the Prophet, come and fight your friends. β
"Oh, by the way, this isn't the sword competition you're familiar with. β
"If you get hit, it probably hurts, right?"
When Alyssa's index finger fell, the speed of the rainstorm suddenly increased, and when Lin Qiu realized this, his ears were already filled with screams one after another.
The rain from the sky easily pierced the armor of the guards, but the screams didn't last long, and Alyssa looked at the wounds on the guards without even a moment's hesitation.
"Oops, they're hurt. β
Urusos said in a playful voice.
"And you know ......"
"What happens if you get injured in the fight with Alyssa?"
As soon as the words fell, Lin Qiu saw the blood gushing out of the guards with his own eyes, the blood flowed through the streets and alleys under the rain, and after most of the personnel were lost, the guards woke up like a dream.
"Weird...... Monster!"
"That rain is weird!"
In the midst of the noise, the soldiers spontaneously gathered in groups, and they raised their shields to defend against the sudden rainstorm, and the raindrops collided with the shields, filling the square with the aftermath of "ding ding dong". Alyssa on the judgment bench just glanced coldly at the guards' makeshift defensive formation.
Then, the torrential rain caused a fault.
The guards peeked out of their shields to spy on the sudden cessation of the rainstorm, and of course he could see the true face of the shadow behind the clouds in the afterglow of the thunder, a dragon head made of rain.
They could even see the sharp fangs of the dragon in its gaping mouth.
The next moment, all the columns of water gushed out like a dragon's breath.
"Boom-"
The only remaining place where the guards had gathered turned into a huge crater in an instant, and when the water column dissipated, there was nothing left in the huge pit.
"I know what you're thinking. "Urusos seems to be in a very good mood.
"Alyssa suddenly got stronger?"
"No, to be precise, she used to get weaker. β
"Since joining the Inquisition, since it has been his goal to protect the people of Horutia, since ...... After meeting you. β
"Why would anyone be willing to be weak? I don't understand. β
"But ......"
"It seems like it's going to ...... It's your turn - look, Alyssa is looking at you. β
......
"Didn't Goebon tell you?"
The sudden response made Urusos stunned, and he thought that no matter what he said, Lin Qiu would not ignore him. It's a little fun, because it means that the "communication" between them is one step further.
Humans often say that communication is the beginning of mutual understanding, and they are off to a good start.
It realized this when Alyssa fell here.
Instead of letting Lin Qiu kill Luwitt over and over again, hoping that Lin Qiu would experience its hatred and despair, it would be better for him to face the things he cared about more.
"What do you want to say, as long as we continue to talk, we can really understand each other...... You know how to end this fight, don't you?"
"You're ......"
Lin Qiu took a deep breath: "It's too noisy." β
"Won't you ever look back, even if that means fighting Alyssa?"
Urusos's tone was sideways, and the dragon's head in the sky was aimed at Lin Qiu, and the column of water, which was thicker than before, broke through the clouds and bombarded down.
"Fight to the death. β
"If that's what you want......"
