Chapter 174: Burdened by Love
In the confinement circle, Ruth and the martial soul walked side by side towards the mage McMahon, who was almost at the end of his rope. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"Miss Ruth, you'd better not be impulsive, I said that as long as you are willing to cooperate with us sincerely, we can discuss Theon's affairs!" Seeing the other party approaching, McMahon forced himself to calm down.
"Good to discuss?" Ruth sneered, "You didn't intend to let him go from the beginning, did you! I took Tannis City for you and fought the dragon to the death, but Your Excellency never fulfilled your promise!" She suddenly turned cold, "If I guessed correctly, you just want to use him as a tool to blackmail me!"
"Miss Ruth, don't say it so ugly, isn't it that you haven't found the treasure yet? You are so anxious to collude with outsiders to blackmail me, this method is also very unkind......" McMahon glanced at him and sneered: "What's more, it's not that I don't want to let Theon go, it's just that the little liver is very reluctant to let me go now, and he really doesn't want to leave me, so I can't help it!" McMahon spread his hands, completely scoundrel.
"You...... Theon is not such a person!" Ruth was embarrassed and angry, and her pretty face flushed.
"My good man, I've seen the guys, but such a shameless guy, it's the first time I've seen it after living for so long......" The martial spirit was dumbfounded and couldn't help muttering.
"Hehe, is this such a person, can you just ask for yourself?" McMahon waved his hand lightly, and after a moment, he saw a tall figure speeding into the Forbidden Circle.
Ruth's pupils dilate--------- and it was her lover, Theon.
"Theon......" Ruth called his name softly, her voice choked.
Theon had now taken off his full-covered helmet from his head, revealing a face as handsome as a knife, his eyes were bright, and he no longer had the dull expression he had before.
"Dear Ruth, it's me, it's a pleasure to see you again. Theon nodded softly to her, a charming smile on his face throughout.
"Theon, you...... Are you recovered?" Ruth slowly lowered her sword and walked towards Theon.
"Hey, little girl, don't go over, beware of traps!" Seeing that Ruth could barely control her emotions, the martial spirit hurriedly shouted on the side.
Ruth continued to approach Theon step by step as if she hadn't heard.
"Theon, since you have regained your freedom, why don't you come back to me, do you really no longer have me in your heart?" Ruth rushed to Theon, and plunged into his arms, crying bitterly.
"No, I will always love you, Ruth. Theon whispered comfortingly, but his arm gradually pushed her away, and his eyes fell to the ground, looking a little lonely.
"But you know, I am a Illuminati, and you believe in Moses, we are not destined to be together, otherwise not only will we betray and hurt too many people, but even the gods will not tolerate ......"
"But Theon, didn't you say that you could choose to abandon the whole world for my sake?" Ruth interrupted him by looking up, tears flickering in her eyes, "I don't care about that, I can only be with you......"
"My obedient man turned out to be a pair of bitter lovers with different beliefs, alas~" The martial soul listened to their conversation, instantly understood what was going on, and couldn't help but shake his head and sigh again and again.
Theon looked at her in a daze, and after a moment, suddenly pulled out a dagger and stabbed Ruth in the heart!
"Oh no!
Ruth conditionally launched a sideways body, but she was able to dodge the fatal blow, and due to her years of immersion in martial arts, all kinds of dodging methods almost became her instinctive reaction.
"Theon, you...... You're going to kill me?!" Several strands of long, severed hair fell from the air, and Ruth stared at her lover in disbelief.
"Ruth, my dear, you know that pagans cannot love each other, and even if we force ourselves together, our souls will be punished by the gods in the future......" Theon sighed heavily, and continued, "So, I intend to atone for our sins to the Almighty Gods with the lives of both you and me......" and stabbed the dagger into his chest.
"But...... But I really can't bear to kill you......" I saw that Theon was foaming at the mouth with a painful expression.
"I see, Theon. Ruth smiled miserably, "Since we can't be together, let's bury us here!" With that, she raised her sword and wiped it from her neck.
"Hey, girl, stupid girl, Miss Ruth, don't be fooled! It's a trap!" Seeing that Ruth was about to be martyred, the martial spirit jumped to her feet in anger and shouted loudly.
Ruth ignored him, the sword in her hand had gently cut through the white and tender skin of her neck, blood kept gushing out, and her consciousness gradually blurred, as long as she used a little more force in her hand, it was all over.
"I won't stop you if you are determined to be martyred, but you have no reason to let go of that old miscellaneous fish behind him! He has controlled and played with your lover in despicable ways, shouldn't you take him with him to the funeral?!" the martial spirit pointed to McMahon not far away and shouted, his eyes almost spewing fire.
"McMahon!" Ruth woke up suddenly when she heard this name, quickly put down the sword in her hand, and coughed violently: "Ahem...... Cough...... My dear, that McMahon has taken possession of your body with magic and threatened me several times, or we will go and kill him first, and then ...... I'll ...... with you again."
"Whoosh!" Before he could finish speaking, the dagger in Theon's hand suddenly flew forward, and Ruth was seriously injured and couldn't dodge, and was used to being in the chest.
"Oops! I have to call Marven over quickly!" the martial spirit shouted that it was not good, once McMahon succeeded in trapping Ruth with his strategy, he would have no chance of winning against a magus with a high-level martial arts puppet. As soon as he thought of this, the martial soul quickly withdrew from the confinement array.
Just ran less than 100 meters, only to hear Theon in the rear shout, straight to Ruth, Ruth almost became a bloody man at the moment, the long sword also fell to the ground, and he was about to be killed on the spot.
The martial soul was in a hurry, got up and rushed back again, and just ran two steps, but found a figure squatting next to a boulder.
"Ha! What a godsend!" the martial soul was overjoyed, and immediately thought about it.
Theon walked towards Ruth with heavy steps, red blood dripping from the tip of the long sword.
McMahon stared at the blood essence stone suspended in the center of the circle, his face was greedy, just waiting to kill Ruth, not only could he escape, but he could also live with the mysterious artifact for himself.
"Hey, old shaggy! I advise you not to hit that thing's idea, and let Ruth and Theon go as soon as possible!" Just as McMahon was thinking about it, the voice of the martial soul suddenly exploded in midair, like thunder.
"You're just a vindictive spirit, so what right do you have to blackmail me!" McMahon snorted disdainfully, still walking forward.
"Stop! If you dare to make another move, I won't dare to guarantee the life of this Xia prostitute!" The martial spirit shouted loudly, and lifted Wang Zhaoming up like an eagle twisting a chicken, and the sword in his hand kept gesturing on his still handsome face.
"It's a 'High Xia Clan'! Your Excellency!" At the critical moment, Wang Zhaoming still emphasized his identity.
"Master, I don't want to die! Come and save me!" When his own neck was cut open by the sword in the hand of the martial spirit, Wang Zhaoming was terrified, his body was like a sifting chaff, and he cried for help.
The martial soul suddenly felt a disgusting smell of urine coming from the air, and when he looked down, it turned out that this Wang Zhaoming was so frightened that he was incontinent.
"A coward who can only kneel and lick!" Wu Soul scolded disdainfully in his heart, in his opinion, no matter how glamorous a person like Wang Zhaoming is, his inner nature of obscenity, despicability, and cowardice will never change.
"Don't worry! if you have something to say, it's okay to say!" McMahon was shocked and hurriedly waved at the martial spirit.
In the end, after some bargaining, McMahon used Wang Zhaoming as a bargaining chip in exchange for Ruth, who was seriously injured and unconscious, while McMahon took advantage of the moment of exchanging hostages to break through the imprisoned magic array and pull Wang Zhaoming out of trouble and escape.
Although he was passive for a while, this magister was still a good move after all, and the martial soul was so angry that he stomped his feet but was helpless, after all, he didn't know magic, and he couldn't rearrange the confinement circle at all, but fortunately, Ruth and the blood essence stone were intact, and it could be regarded as an explanation to Marven.
Outside the cave, after some pursuit and fierce fighting, Marven killed Anglo and the magicians who stayed outside to suppress the dragon, and when the martial soul brought him the depressing news that the Magister McMahon had escaped, Marven just shook his head solemnly and sighed: "Forget it, you don't have to blame yourself, I know that guy's ability, even if I go into battle in person, I am not sure to kill him, the next time we meet, maybe there will be a life-and-death fight......"
Marven cut off Anglo's head with a sword, and his heart was mixed, and he solved the rival who was searching for treasure, but in the future, he didn't know what kind of challenges he would face.
