Chapter Ninety-Nine: Time Jump

According to Lolana's inference, the two closest things to reality in this illusion are the blood-red blade in the phantom's hand, and the seal of the center of the earth that Lucius tried to steal. As for what he plans to do next, El intends to wait and see.

Blackbeard was not surprised by the Phantom's sudden attack, or rather, it was a trap he had designed, but now that there were suddenly two more uninvited guests in his plan, it added a lot of variables. However, in Blackbeard's opinion, as long as such variables are under his control, they can add to the help.

Blackbeard didn't continue to pick up the seal of the center of the earth, but as soon as he turned around, he ran towards El, shouting, "General El, as long as you can help me kill this monster, I will lift the curse, and we will settle our grievances from now on!"

"Eh, didn't he find out?" El asked quietly to Lorana. When the curse on Palanti's body was successfully expelled, Blackbeard immediately had a sense of it, and immediately broke out and tried to escape, but in the end he was stopped by El and Ahmed.

This time, Lolana also solved the curse, but Blackbeard didn't seem to feel anything abnormal, and thought he had something to rely on. Is this water in his brain or is Lolana lying?

Looking at Lolana's pale face, El's heart was more inclined to the second possibility, but Lolana pinched her waist fiercely, and whispered in the same suppressed voice: "I did something to that curse, and he couldn't notice it for a while, and now it's done to show him." As long as he dares to rush over, you can give him a hard blow, and then throw him to the phantom to deal with. ”

"Actually, I think at this time, we can have another choice. El looked at the treacherous smile on Blackbeard's face and whispered. He smiled at Blackbeard, then abruptly stood up, took Lolana in his arms, and turned to flee into the secret passage.

"Eh, why are you running away?" rolana shouted with wide eyes, inexplicable.

"Because I don't like to fight on a battlefield where the enemy has prepared. El burst out with swift speed under his feet, even holding the girl's body as if it were nothing, without the slightest feeling of burden, and in an instant rushed into the spiraling upward secret passage stairs, leaving Blackbeard, who could not react, far behind.

Blackbeard also did not expect El to retreat so decisively, and he chased after him outside the secret passage and stopped, his face cloudy, and his heart silently unleashed the power of the curse, but it was like a stone sinking into the sea. By this time, he finally knew that his voodoo had been cracked, but he was also puzzled - why didn't El take the opportunity to counterattack?

The phantom behind him had already chased him, and he couldn't think about it too much. Blackbeard took one last look into the dark shadows deep in the tunnel, then spread his legs and sprang away. Although these two uninvited guests cost him a lot of unplanned energy, but now that everything is back on track, compared to the variables of those two people, how to kill this unforgiving phantom is his most difficult problem now.

"Because I don't think Blackbeard will succeed this time!" El said to Lorana as she ran.

"Since Blackbeard dares to do this, he must have something to rely on, he is definitely capable of killing the Phantom. Lorana pouted and said, "The blood-red blade in the phantom's hand knows at a glance that it is not an ordinary product, and it is impossible for the king of bandits who came here before not to be moved. Neither Roger nor Blackbeard paid any special attention to the Phantom when it appeared, indicating that they already knew the weapon very well. ”

"Fact 1 that can be deduced from this: there must have been someone who tried to snatch the weapon and succeeded in killing the Phantom, and then they would be disappointed to find that the weapon was not as beautiful as it seemed, at least not the place where the treasure was sealed, or even the illusion. And it itself won't help solve the problem of the next trial, otherwise Roger and Blackbeard's attention should have been focused here from the beginning. ”

"Fact 2 can be deduced from this: Blackbeard appeared here, and Roger did not, and he should still be groping for Adrian's story line on the side of the Darkmoon Temple. These two storylines will inevitably cross at this point in time, and Blackbeard has already gone through the first storyline in its entirety, so he reversed the important clue on this side, which is now definitely the seal of the center of the earth. His goal now is to gather the Seal of the Earth's Heart and the Blood Red Blade, and then proceed with the next steps that we don't know yet. ”

"Fact 3 that can be deduced from this: in this illusion, Roger and we are both first-time experiencers, and only Blackbeard has the most experience. He is the only one who has the best chance of solving the puzzle left by Adrian, and only by following him can we make enough profit and even grab the blood-red artifact!"

Lolana held up three fingers in turn and dangled them in front of El's eyes, almost poking them into his eyes. The little hands and feet left by the girl when she expelled the curse were originally to hide aside and be a yellow sparrow, but she didn't expect to be ruined by Elle's instant escape, so naturally she wouldn't have a good face to look at.

"You're right, but I have a different idea!" El flicked his head over Lorana's fingers, but his feet didn't slow down in the slightest. He jumped up the steps, listened attentively to the movement behind him, and found that Blackbeard was not chasing after him, and then he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, only to turn around and see the sharp eyes of the eldest lady.

"Well, I see it a little differently than yours. Although that phantom is weird, its true strength has not yet reached the level of invincibility, and the real danger is the weapon in his hand. After all, this phantom is not a sapient creature with a soul, and the way he deals with problems is very rigid, as long as he finds the pattern, it is not difficult to defeat him...... But I still feel that Blackbeard is unlikely to succeed this time. ”

El quickly retreated under the eyes of the eldest lady, and had to open his mouth to explain his thoughts, but with his eloquence, it would take three times as much saliva to get Lolana's approval.

"As you remember, after I assassinated Lucius, it wasn't long before he was back on the street, and he was completely unaffected by the murder he had just been killed. The Phantom had been hunting me down at that time, so who had resurrected him, and how did he erase all the memories of the onlookers?"

"At that time, I had a vague hunch that there was a very simple explanation for this problem. I don't know much about the specific connotation of this word, but I can at least understand it - it is a dead thing, a thing that is fixed here and does not develop and extend on its own. If you think of him as a stick, from one end to the other, it is the distance from today to tomorrow. ”

"If I'm in my hands on this stick and I find that there's a rot on it, the most straightforward way is to cut that piece off. So the Lucius we see may not have come back from the dead at all, but this illusion has directly switched to the next point in time...... There will definitely be specific changes around at that time, but none of us noticed that. ”

Seeing Lolana speechless in shock, El's heart was as relieved as honey, he had dreamed of one day being able to completely impress the eldest lady in terms of IQ, but he didn't expect this day to come so quickly. Happiness came so suddenly that he was a little fluttery.

In fact, these problems are not unexpected, but the two people look at the problem from different angles, and the conclusions they come to are naturally very different. Probably due to the nature of a businessman, Lolana always tries to reap the benefits of this expedition, while El is ready to flee for his life at any time. In his own words, the hunter never fights in a battlefield set up by the enemy. This is not a battlefield that belongs to him, and he naturally has to stay away.

Lolana came back to her senses, half-narrowed her eyes and glared at El fiercely, she wanted to say something, but looking at Elle's fluttering happy expression, she just sighed and changed her words: "I really didn't pay attention to this, according to your judgment, will Blackbeard steal chickens and rice this time?"

"It's hard to say, but with his strength, even if he has the most effective means, he will have to waste a lot of time to kill that phantom. If he can kill with one hit, he won't have to think about the two of us. I think there's at least an eighty percent chance that by the time he kills the phantom, the time of the illusion has already been switched. Thinking of this, El couldn't help but have a wicked smile on his face. In a matter of moments, he had already carried Lolana through the twenty-minute tunnel and returned to the conference hall.

"Next, we just need to test this inference with our eyes. He placed Lolana in the velvet chair of the Speaker's private room, listened intently for a moment again, and nodded with a smile.

Lolana patted her cheek, and her bloodless face immediately regained its healthy glow. She coughed lightly, stood up and stretched out her right hand, El smiled and stepped forward to hold it, and the two of them posed like a real aristocratic couple, pushed open the door and walked out.

Outside the door, there is a sea of festivity and joy.

Lucius's Knights had entered the castle and officially taken over the defenses of the castle, and the power of the council vanished at this moment. The servants of the castle spontaneously split into two groups, one of them quickly removing the ornaments with the council's mark, and the other taking out a new curtain from the treasury to decorate the castle in a colorful way.

All of them had a smile of excitement and happiness on their faces, as if this was the most memorable festival of their lives. (Go read OM) (Jiangsu.com)
