Chapter 241: Decades of Solitude
"You're talking about...... Lord Nelly?" Catherine's fists clenched violently, her eyes were full of anticipation, but with a little disbelief, her lips were almost bitten by her own teeth, and her voice trembled a little, "Could it be that Lord Nelly accused the undead of attacking her grandfather and their team?"
"It's definitely not me who controls those two undead, in that case, there's only one answer-" Pannis sighed and said, "It's only possible that Nelly is holding two demigod-level skeletons and fighting the expeditionary team in the way we are used to." β
"How is this possible, Lord Nelly, she has no reason to do this, what is the purpose of her attack on the expedition?" Catherine had just asked her own question, when she suddenly thought of something, her eyes lit up, and she said excitedly: "I understand, my lord, she is here to protect this world, and she knows that the servants of the gods want to use my grandfather and their team to find the temple of Danakus, so they will attack them." That's right, it must be like this, she didn't hurt anyone, from beginning to end, the target was the two necromancers of the Divine Servant, because the Lord knew that as long as she killed those two necromancers, her grandfather and they would lose the possibility of finding the temple of Danakus. My lord, she is really the greatest hero, and even at this time, she is still fighting for the safety of the world. β
"You guessed it right, if Nelly was behind the two undead, that's what she was trying to do. Pannis smiled bitterly and said, "In order to protect this world, she will not hesitate to do anything, this is the fate of the guardian knight." β
"Yes, that's the fate of the Guardian Knight. Catherine unconsciously puffed up her chest and said seriously and firmly: "I have sworn countless times that I will follow the example of Lord Nelly and be a true guardian knight, even if it is at the expense of my own life. Maybe my strength right now isn't enough to do this. But I'm still going to work hard for adults. β
"No, you've done it. Dilly, who had been watching from the sidelines, suddenly said, "Ever since you, no, since you agreed to accompany Kyle and me into here without hesitation, in the hearts of those of us, you are brave enough to compare with Nelly." This does not change depending on your strength. β
"However, I'm still far behind Nelly-sama, at least I can't protect the world even if I die. Speaking of Nelly, Catherine naturally entered this state of frenzy, and her reaction speed seemed to plummet, and only then did she suddenly react, her eyes widened and she said in disbelief: "No." Why is it Nelly-sama? Isn't she already ...... Already...... Is it already dead? How can you still control the undead behind your back, and fight against the necromancers of the Divine Servants? Could it be that the adults are still ...... Still alive?"
"No one can give you an answer to this question. Dilly looked at Pannis, and found that he didn't mean to explain, so he had to mumble a few times in dissatisfaction, explaining: "The battle back then, in the end, the fragment of Danakus's divine soul rushed into Nelly's body, and Nelly stabbed the riding spear into her heart with her backhand to declare the end. Hey, Kyle. Can you really bear it, or you should sue them after a while, and if you continue to say it, I'm afraid you won't be able to hold it. β
"I'm fine, you can continue. "Pannis's spirit was a little dazed, and his face was unusually pale. Slowly sat on the ground and hung his head, his voice was like the last wail of a dying beast: "It's time for them to know, don't worry about me, this kind of Cheng dΓΉ's stimulation can't praise me." I don't say it not just because I don't want to face it again, but more importantly because I was in a mess during that last time. I don't know the details, so it's better for those of you who have seen it. β
"Yes, you don't really know what happened. Dilly nodded, and secretly looked at Pannis, who claimed to be fine, and Pannis sat motionless on the ground with his head hanging down, as if he had been transformed into a stone statue. The manticore shook his head with a wry smile, and said helplessly to the girls: "Things happened almost at the same time, at the same time that the Divine Soul Fragment rushed into Nelly's body, Nelly also pierced her own body, putting herself in a near-death state, and also caused the Divine Soul Fragment that wanted to occupy her body to suffer a heavy blow of destruction. Instead of achieving his goal, Danakus is desperate and desperate, so he frantically wants to take revenge, and the way to get revenge is to attack Kyle with the Death Curse, wanting to kill her lover when Nelly is dying. However, Nelly's will took control of her body at the last moment, but instead of trying to save herself, she reversed the death curse, so Kyle was able to live until now without aging. Of course, these are all speculations that we later made from their actions, and as to whether or not that was what they thought at the time, unless we asked Danacus and Nelly. β
"I think Nelly-sama must have thought so. Catherine's gaze focused on Pannis, who was hanging her head, gentle as the clear waves on the surface of a lake, and said softly: "If there is only one thing to do at that moment, of course Lord Nelly will choose to reverse the death curse, this is something that there is no need to doubt at all, because ...... We will all make the same choice. β
"That's why he deserves to be burned, explode bastard. Dee muttered in a language he could only understand, and continued, "After that, everything happened so fast that there was no time to react. At that time, we and the soul of Danacus were fighting in a different space in the world of the dead, if the world of the dead is his kingdom, then that space is a palace condensed with the power of death in the kingdom of God, after Danakus was destroyed, the alien space completely collapsed, and we were all ejected into the temple of the world of the dead, and the soul that was close to the fall and Nelly, who had been controlled by the soul and was on the verge of death, stayed in the other space and never appeared again. After returning to the world of the dead, we can no longer return to that other dimension, and the golden dragon Mina senses that the door of death connecting the world of Yara and the world of the dead is slowly closing, and we must make a choice whether to leave as much as possible. At this point, Kyle's spirit was on the verge of collapse, and we were all used to following his orders along the way, so we didn't have much idea, and in the end, Mina made the decision to take everyone through the door of death back to the present world. β
"Wait, in that case, how do you know that the Divine Soul is close to falling?" Catherine is worthy of being a knight, and the question is not why she has not continued to try to rescue Nelly, for a veteran adventurer, when there must be a victim, it will never be foolish to waste the precious time and opportunity that the victim has exchanged for his life. Therefore, she only questioned the purpose, these people who put their lives aside and dared to rush into the world of the dead to challenge the evil gods, they would definitely not flee in a hurry because they were afraid of death when the purpose was not achieved, and since they decided to leave, it means that there are enough reasons to be sure that the mission has been completed. So Catherine asked, "If you can confirm this, it must not be just because the alien space is shattered." β
"First, the door of death is slowly closing, and second, the undead outside the temple are falling in pieces. Dilly explained: "Whether it is the door of death or the existence of countless billions of undead, it is the embodiment of Danacus's will, and in the absence of external forces, the door of death is closed, and the undead return to silence, which fully proves that Danacus's will has fallen into a deep sleep again, and even if it does not really fall, it is difficult to reawaken, this is the purpose of Kyle leading us into the world of death, but it is a pity that ......"
"I see. Catherine glanced at Pannis again, still in his original position, barely moving a single hair. Catherine sighed, and looked at the other girls for a while, trying to comfort him, but she didn't know how to speak, and finally could only say dryly: "Actually, this is Lord Nelly's own choice, and she will never regret it." β
"There is no need to comfort me. Pannis suddenly raised his head and said in a low voice: "I will not be sad for Nelly's sacrifice, since I have chosen this path, then I am naturally ready to sacrifice at any time, if it is just like this, I will never be depressed because of her sacrifice of life now, and I will not be depressed because of her death, remember what I often said when we first met? I am a sinner, this is the reason why I was depressed back then, as for my sin, heh." β
Seeing Pannis's weak shake of her head, Catherine knew that he didn't want to continue, of course the considerate girl wouldn't ask for details, and she also found another problem, stared at Dilly and asked, "In this case, Lord Nelly should indeed have died, she was pierced through the heart, and her body was occupied by the spirit, so how could she control the undead and attack the last expedition?"
Therefore, there is only one explanation. Dilly looked at the girls, then turned his head to look at Pannis, and seemed to be unable to find the right language, so he could only raise his head and howl, and replied bluntly: "Obviously, the only explanation is that Nelly's consciousness has not completely disappeared, at least in your grandfather's time, her consciousness is still at least partially remaining, so she can use the power of the god of death to control a small number of undead to do things." But now, whether her will still exists, and even if she does, how much she can keep is a very unoptimistic thing, at least from the perspective of the divine servant's appearance. β
"I wish Nelly's will could still be completely preserved now. Catherine was a little stunned for a moment as she imagined what had happened in the past, but after a while, the girl's face suddenly became extremely ugly, and even her lips turned pale, and she said astringently: "If the will of the adults was still preserved in my grandfather's time, wouldn't that be ......?"
"Yes. Pannis finally moved, covered his face and said bitterly: "Decades of loneliness. (To be continued.) )
