Chapter 22: I'll be waiting for you ahead!
Leif laughed wildly long and wild in the clearing, and the contempt and mockery of humanity in his tone was palpable. It was as if they were talking about cockroaches and mice, as if they were in a different dimension, and it made Matthew and Olga Marie tremble.
Humanity is going to be destroyed at the hands of such people, but they don't even know how and why Leif did it.
And judging from Leif's words, it seems that there is a powerful unknown force standing behind him....... Will the Chaldeans have to fight such a formidable enemy? Will they really be able to get the final victory? Or - do they still have a chance to redeem it?
Reif's words lowered everyone's mood, even Roman. Anyone who knows that they are the only ones alive in the world will feel hopeless and depressed.
But at this moment, a determined voice sounded in everyone's ears, instilling a glimmer of hope in their hearts.
"You're not going to get away with it!" Liu Yuan looked at Leif, who was laughing wildly, expressionlessly, "As long as you fix all the peculiarities, you can prevent the collapse of human reason." Is it too early to think you're invincible? β
Matthew, Olga Marie, and Roman heard this, and their eyes lit up.
Yes, the Chaldeans have not yet been destroyed, and although the 48 Masters are not yet awake, they have met the last of them at this peculiar point, and they have summoned the powerful Divine Heroic Spirit of Enkidu. As long as Liu Yuan is the master, it is by no means impossible to repair the peculiarities.
The next thing they have to do is to repair all the seven peculiarities observed by Chaldeas according to the original plan, so as to stop the collapse of human reason and bring human history back to the right path!
People are optimistic and pessimistic, optimistic people can cheer up and catch up as long as they have a goal, and Matthew and Roman obviously belong to this category, Liu Yuan's words made them see the road under their feet.
Leif's laughter gradually stopped, and when he saw that everyone had rekindled their fighting spirit, he couldn't help but "tsk", and then glanced at Liu Yuan deeply.
"But can you do it. A little ghost who doesn't even have a magic circuit, and dares to make a big fuss here about fixing peculiarities? β
"I can't guarantee that I can do it." Liu Yuan smiled, "But as long as there is hope, we will not give up struggling!" β
"Hmph, naΓ―ve little ghost, you have no idea what you're up against!"
"You know, isn't it the Demon God Pillar?"
"What ββ!?" Leif's face changed, and he suddenly realized that the situation didn't seem to be all under his control.
And in a place where no one could see, Roman, who was far away in Chaldea, also changed his face.
Demon God Pillar ....... It's a distant, yet familiar term.
"Kid, where did you know about this kind of thing?!" Leif frowned.
Liu Yuan gave him a contemptuous look: "You said it yourself." Floros, isn't that the name of the Demon God Pillar? β
"You ........"
According to Solomon's legend, one of the seventy-two pillars of the demon god under Solomon is called 'Floros', which is the body of Leif. But to be able to associate this name with the Demon God Pillar in such a short period of time, and it still means the truth........ Is this a coincidence, or is it a certainty with evidence?
"Looks like I'm underestimating you, boy." Leif sank his face, no longer smiling in his eyes, "But don't think we're that easy to deal with. I'll admit that I can't defeat the servants around you, but there are stronger Demon God Pillars above me, and in the face of them, even the clay man Enki will inevitably die. β
Liu Yuan smiled: "Then who knows." But now we just need to defeat you, don't we? β
"Hahaha, that's true. Butβ" Leif put his staff across Olga Marie's neck, "can you really choose to sacrifice this woman's life to kill me?" β
"Olga Marie? In your words, she's already dead. Is there any morality to talk about with a dead man? And personally, I don't like her, so it's easy to die early. Liu Yuan pursed his lips, dismissive of Leif's threat.
"You're ......!!" Olga Marie struggled in annoyance and glared at Liu Yuan fiercely, but because Leif clenched her neck, she couldn't say what she wanted to say while holding her breath.
But even if he didn't listen, Liu Yuan knew that it was probably not a good word.
"Shut up!" Leif pinched Olga Marie's neck to silence her, then glared at Liu Yuan with disdain and said, "Don't take me for a fool, if you really wanted to kill me, I wouldn't be standing here a long time ago." β
"Qi." was said to be in his mind, Liu Yuan smashed his mouth unhappily, "Maybe I just want to get information from your mouth?" β
Leif didn't pay any attention to his quibbles, and suddenly changed his flirtatious tone and said, "It's not good for both of us to go on like this, let's talk about it........ As long as you let me go, I'll let this woman go, how about it? β
"I used to belittle human beings so much, but now I am as afraid of death as humans." Liu Yuan mocked casually.
"As long as it is a living creature, it will have the desire to survive. I just need to live, whatever you want. However, Leif was not provoked by him, and smirked at them, "Well, don't you want to save this woman?" As long as I don't do anything and let me go, I'll make an exception and let her go. How is it? Pretty good deal, right? β
"Hmph-" Liu Yuan's eyes became serious, "You are an enemy, how do you want us to believe you?" β
"We are not like you humans who take treachery for granted. Bet on the name of 'Floros', as long as you let me go, I will not kill this woman, and I will never break my word!" Leif looked up proudly.
β........ Well, I'll make up my mind and agree. Matthew, Dr. Roman, are you all right? Liu Yuan said helplessly.
Matthew hesitated for a moment, then nodded slightly, "I follow Master's decision." β
Roman didn't respond immediately, but frowned and asked, "Liu Yuan, do you really want to believe him?" Although we don't know the power of the Demon God Pillar yet, at least it's at the Servant level, and if Leif wants to kill Olga Marie before leaving, we won't have time to stop it. β
Liu Yuan shook his head: "Doctor Roman, we can't risk Olga Marie's life, let's try to believe in his so-called 'pride'." β
"But ........" Roman looked at Liu Yuan in surprise, at this time, the latter suddenly winked at him inadvertently, his eyes moved to Enqidu's side, Roman suddenly understood, and pretended to be helpless....... Then Professor Reif, please let go of the director. We'll keep the promise to let you go. β
Leif sneered unsurprisingly, "You're still as naΓ―ve as ever, Romani. Don't worry, since I bet on my real name, I will keep my promise. Anyway, even if you get this good-for-nothing woman, you can't do anything. β
When she heard the term 'good for nothing', Olga Marie "whined" twice, but no one paid any attention to her.
Leif pointed at Enqidu beside Liu Yuan with his cane: "Then first, let that servant retreat to the edge of a hundred meters away, but don't leave my sight." β
Liu Yuan glanced sideways at Enqidu, who tilted his head slightly, and jumped a hundred meters away at a speed that would not stimulate Lef, but his eyes were still firmly fixed on Lef, and that look seemed to say-If you dare to attack the Master, I will kill you now!
Seeing that Enkidu had retreated to a distance where he could not easily attack, Leif also pinched Olga Marie's neck and slowly retreated, and a strange black hole that seemed to tear open space behind him and writhed with thick tentacles inside.
Lef's figure gradually retreated into the black hole, and after about half of his body was submerged in the black hole, he sneered at Liu Yuan: "Let's take it as a hello today, although it is a pity that the purpose of recovering the Holy Grail has not been achieved, but remember, the next time we meet, don't think that it can end so easily!" β
Leif finished his cruel words, and was about to let go and retreat into the black hole completely, when a faint footstep suddenly sounded beside him, accompanied by a sharp force like a blade out of the sheath.
β........ Sorry, there's no next time, Erwuzai. Liu Yuan smiled refreshingly and raised his middle finger at Leif.
