Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Phantom Truth
Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Phantom Truth
Trying to close his mouth, Mino swallowed his saliva and opened it with great difficulty.
Du ...... Dean Dubert, why are you here?"
Mino's voice was so hoarse, like that of a man who had trekked in the desert for three days without a drop of water, and the vibrato caused by the violent shaking of his vocal cords was that even Mino himself could not hear what he was saying.
But Dubert understood, and he bowed his head slightly at Mino, and with the habitual kind smile on his face, he replied:
"I think you've already guessed the answer, right? ”
Dubert's voice was as gentle as ever, like a teacher teaching his students, but in such a hellish environment, it was like a whisper of the devil, gentle but deadly.
In the face of Dubert's ambiguous answer, Mino was silent.
In fact, as long as the other party was standing there in that black robe, no matter who it was, Mino could be sure that the other party was the murderer of Puke and the others, and the reason why he was surprised was purely because he was shocked by Dubert's identity.
Now that he came to his senses, the reason why Mino remained silent was only because he had nothing to say.
No matter what his character is, Dubert is a powerhouse who is up to the peak of the sixth level, in front of him, Mino has no power to resist, he knows that whatever he says is useless, it is better not to speak.
"Can't speak?" Mino was silent, but it didn't mean that Dubert was the same, standing on the edge of the pool of blood, he said jokingly: "Yes, in the face of the absolute strength gap, any cleverness is useless, I don't know if you regret your cleverness, Mino." ”
The previous wind blade attack was blocked, making Mino think that the enemy was only four or five levels of strength, if he could fight in close quarters, and the other party had to take care of the ceremony, it was not that there was no chance of victory, so he went upstairs without hesitation, but unfortunately now it seems that this is more like throwing himself into a net.
In the face of Dubert's ridicule, Mino did not speak, although he knew that he was in a hurry to make a mistake, but he did not have many regrets in his heart, if he was asked to choose again, he would still come here resolutely.
Because Yelai is here!
Not to mention the relationship and feelings between the two, just say that Yelai fell into this dangerous situation because he misread the information he gave, and Mino has no reason not to come.
Looking at Yelai, who had passed out in the corner, a slight smile appeared on Mino's face.
"The little guy is really impatient, he dares to rush up without thinking about anything, but he can be considered capable of the magic array I worked hard to set up outside, if you destroy the magic circle and attract Claures, it will be a bit troublesome today. ”
Probably because he was used to being a teacher, Dubert didn't kill Mino directly for some reason, but began to evaluate Mino.
"If you're afraid that Dean Laures will find out, then why do you want to perform such an evil ritual in the library, Dean, you don't seem very smart. ”
Regarding Dubert's evaluation, Mino couldn't help but sarcastically.
"What do you know?!" Mino's salty sarcasm seemed to have a special effect on Dubert, and he roared uncharacteristically loudly: "If it weren't for the mistakes of those damn guys, I would have become a seventh-level powerhouse ten years ago, and as for delaying for so many years, it's all damn Talebo!"
"What?!Ten years ago!, you were the Phantom of Trilan!"
Hearing Dubert's words, Mino suddenly thought of this, and pointed at Dubert and called out in surprise.
"To be able to think so quickly, it seems that you are not just a little clever. In response to Mino's words, Dubert nodded, and Lu smiled approvingly: "That's right, I, Peter Dubert, am the Phantom of Trilan who has been entrenched in Trilan for nearly ten years. ”
"Why, Dean, if you are holding such a ceremony now because your life has been exhausted, then what was it for ten years ago? ”
"For what? haha, for power, of course!" said Mino's question, and Dubert laughed out loud as if he had heard a funny joke.
"I invented and created a new wind magic, I taught more than 10,000 Pillars of the Kingdom, I single-handedly blocked the beast tide that attacked Trilan, what did Talebo do? He didn't do anything!
"If it weren't for the hidden danger left in order to block the beast tide, I would have stepped into the legend a long time ago, but what about the result, no one remembers, everyone only cares about the result, Talebo is a legend, and I am only a sixth-level mortal. ”
"Strength is the foundation of everything!"
Dubert roared loudly, and the negative emotions that had been accumulated in his heart for nearly ten years exploded in front of Mino, and a stream of air burst out of his body, blowing his silver hair scattered in all directions, and the whole person looked like a madman, completely losing his original gentle elder image.
"It's right to pursue power, everyone is chasing power, but why do you use such an evil method?"
In the undead catastrophe in Tarsie Town, Mino, who had suffered enough of the lack of strength, really had no position to oppose Dubert's words, but he still felt that Dubert was at fault and couldn't help but argue.
"Don't use this evil method, then you come and tell me, Mino, please tell me what method to use?" Mino's retort made Dubert's eyes widen, and he asked in a cold voice: "What method can make the damned Mo Wen family use their precious resources on me, a dead old man with no potential?" Tell me!"
"One is a young powerhouse who has broken through the legend, and the other is a sixth-level old man who is approaching his twilight, who do you say they will choose? The only Yuehua essence that can make up for the wounds of my soul was given to my apprentice Talebo, just to stabilize his vain spiritual power. ”
"Since no one has helped me think of a way, then I have to use my own method to get the result I want!"
"For this reason, I did not hesitate to become a butcher, and finally gathered enough materials for the ceremony, and it was my good apprentice Talebo, a brave and legendary hero who discovered my altar and destroyed the pool of blood forged with nearly a thousand human lives, and all my hard work was in vain, and even I almost fell into it. ”
Talking about his past and determination, Dubert's eyes were red and his face was full of hatred.
"After that, I endured for ten years, using the fourth floor of the library that no one else could enter as a base, and finally stood on the verge of completing the ceremony again, after tonight, I am a legendary powerhouse, and the name of Teacher Talebo will disappear from now on, whoever rushes to destroy it, he is my mortal enemy!"
Speaking of this, Dubert glanced at Mino coldly, and the killing intent in his eyes was undisguised.
"So please die here, Mino-san. ”
As soon as he raised his hand, a stream of blood flew out of the pool of blood in front of Dubert, turning into a deadly blood arrow and shooting straight towards Mino.
Seeing that Dubert launched an attack on himself, Mino didn't think about rolling forward, brushing past the blood arrow, and narrowly dodging Dubert's blow.
Then Mino picked up Yelai from the ground, jumped up from the ground, and slammed into the window next to him.
In the face of a strong man like Dubert standing at the peak of the sixth level, Mino never imagined that he would be able to win with the strength of the second level.
However, he did not give up hope, and while listening to Dubert, although Mino pretended to be engrossed, while listening, he also quietly looked at the layout of the space, and tried to think of a way to escape.
That's right, it's to run away.
Although Mino is not afraid to fight, he also does not fight madmen, and he is even tougher when he knows that he can't be beaten, and he is thinking about escape strategies from the beginning of entering the door.
The reason why he had to listen to Dubert's story for so long was that on the one hand, he was really curious about the cause and effect, and on the other hand, he wanted to quietly move closer to the direction of Yelai and prepare for the rapid escape now.
"Stay for me!"
Seeing Mino actually run away under his nose, and he was about to succeed, made Dubert feel like he had been slapped in the face, and it hurt hotly.
He roared, and three blood arrows shot out of the pool of blood with lightning speed, aiming directly at the positions of Mino and Yelai.
Dubert's blood arrow attack was too fast, and Mino had nowhere to borrow his strength in the air, so he couldn't dodge at all, so he could only watch the blood arrow shoot at him.
But Mino can't do anything, when he found that one of the three blood arrows shot at Yelai in his arms, Mino didn't think about it, so he stepped forward and took the initiative to take the blood arrow.
Clang~
At the moment when the blood arrow touched his body, Mino was subconsciously closing his eyes, ready to meet the pain, when he heard a crisp sound of metal shattering.
The expected pain did not come for a long time, and Mino's eyes really opened, and he found that a silver-white protective shield was on his body, blocking all three blood arrows without pulling them.
The attack of the blood arrow was blocked by the sudden appearance of the protective shield, which not only did not work, but also provided Mino with the motivation to break the window, directly knocking Mino out, without giving Dubert a chance to attack.
The glass on the window cracked with a bang, and Mino fell straight down from the fourth floor of the library with the unconscious Yelai in his arms, falling right in front of the library.
When Chang~
Mino, who fell from the fourth floor, stumbled and almost fell to the ground, but finally stabilized his body, he heard something fall out of his body, and subconsciously looked down, only to find that two metal blocks in the image of half a rabbit fell to the ground.
When Mino touched his chest, he found that the clothes on his chest had been punctured, and the badge given by Kaguyahime, which he had kept close to him, was gone.
