"So, I can't. ”

The refusal was very straightforward, and it didn't even leave Epimetheus the slightest room to maneuver.

It seems that once you start to help your mother from the bottom of your heart, you will become decisive in your decision. Although it was clear that at this time, following Epimetheus's proposal would be the best outcome for himself and for him.

Because of his similar relationship with Charlotte, he has the highest authority. As long as he ordered all the "new humans" to go into sleep mode, then Epimetheus could calmly complete his idea.

After that, it may really be the same as he said, sacrificing, or damaging the bodies of most of the "new humans", in exchange for this quick escape. For Epimetheus, it seemed to be a very satisfying answer.

And for himself, because of the damage of these "new humans", he will definitely have a beneficial impact in the battle with his mother in the future, because among his enemies at the moment, the existence of "new humans" is a difficult thing to solve.

What an obvious and beautiful win-win, Epimetheus not only does not blame himself, but also appreciates his help, not only does he no longer need to worry about the danger that will come at any time now, but Epimetheus's approach is still good for himself.

Why...... What about blurting out like that, saying absolutely unopposed words?

Perhaps, this should be the ......

"I'm not going to do that, no matter who it is. ”

Lilith said, "The safest thing to do now is to wait. ”

"I don't have that much time to wait!"

Epimetheus yelled at Lilith as if enraged. "Please. Now only you have that permission. If I do that kind of thing while the 'new humans' are awake, I will be attacked as an enemy!"

"Oh, that's right, I'm more relieved. ”

Lilith breathed a sigh of relief, and the last of her worries were gone, and she soon chose to sit down against the wall.

Although Epimetheus did not give up on this. Maybe it's a fluke, he's ordering the "new humans" to go into hibernation mode one by one, but in addition to getting a blank negative answer and making the "new humans" consume some more power. It really didn't make any difference.

However, although he said that he had clearly rejected his request, and he did not seem to continue to pester himself, he ......

I always feel that the current Epimetheus seems a little pitiful. Although I don't know what his reason is, he must not rely on others and solve the current troubles in person, even if it is dependent, everyone will not have any complaints.

There will be no results. Even if you keep asking like this...... Sure enough, I'd better help him think of other ways. Epimetheus's mind must be in chaos right now. There could not have been any good ideas. Moreover, I shouldn't hide here like this and don't make any effort.

At least, I still have a little bit of cleverness.

"Come back, I seem to have a clue. ”

Lilith shouted at Epimetheus as she walked farther and farther away, even though she hadn't come up with any good ideas at all.

However, this is just that he can't think of it, and it doesn't mean that Epimetheus, who has calmed down, can't think of it. If it were him, if it was him who wore monocles, was wise, calm and calm, he would have had some idea.

"How?"

"yes, I might have thought of a solution. ”

Lilith said, gesturing to Epimetheus' chest, "...... Well, don't you bring your glasses?"

“......”

After a brief silence, Epimetheus silently picked up the monocle, and although he still looked a little nervous, he was clearly much more relaxed.

"As far as I know, these monsters don't have a lot of intelligence, and it should be said that like those bone dragons, they only have the instinct of a beast, that is, they can start from this aspect. ”

“...... But we can't get out now. The 'new humans' have all entered a state of near-running power. ”

"I know, so you don't have to worry about how the 'new humans' can do it or not, are you the master or are they the masters? You have to be tens of thousands of times smarter than them, why do you always want to rely on them to solve the problem now?"

“......”

"When my mother and I went to investigate before, we also found a problem, that is, these monsters, without exception, are all bloodthirsty, even if it is just the blood of a small mouse, they will swarm up and grab it. ”

Lilith said, recalling the previous scene, "Moreover, their sense of smell is so sensitive that they can smell blood from a long distance. ”

"The Taste of Blood ......"

"Well, that's right. ”

Lilith watched Epimetheus' gaze gradually return to its previous state, "I don't know, can you start from this aspect, for example, take a little blood as bait...... The problem is that this is really not suitable for ambushes and sieges. ”

“......”

What's wrong, why is it suddenly ......

"No!

As Lilith hesitated, Epimetheus suddenly cried out as if he had discovered a new world, even if it only attracted Lilith's attention.

However, at this time, Epimetheus's gaze was finally exactly the same as that of him with a monocle.

Sure enough, such a smart little king, how could there be no way.

"Rather, it's a great place for an ambush. But before that, I have one more question, that is, if blood and a creature are on opposite sides, who will those monsters ambush, you know?"

"This ...... I'm sorry. ”

Because Lilith was carried by Charlotte and ran away at the time, this question is really difficult to answer, but ......

"I think it's blood, well, at this time, it's fun to gamble. ”

“...... Whew, that's true. ”

Epimetheus said, ran to the corner and crouched down, and after a little fiddling, ran back in disgrace.

But in contrast, there was the excited look on his face, "The basement here was originally built for evacuation, so a lot of gates were built, and as each floor of the gate closes, the last space will become less and less, but I think it can be just like this to disintegrate those monsters little by little." Excuse me, do you have anything that could hurt them?"

“...... Reluctantly, there are still some. ”

Although Lilith didn't think that she could deal with so many monsters with her abilities.

"But don't count on me, I'd still like to run away if I can......"

"Phew, I won't put you in danger, after all, you're the one Lord Lilith said she would protect. ”

Epimetheus gave a big smile that made Lilith very excited.

...... It's a little too dazzling, damn it...... If Pandora knew about this, she would definitely be misunderstood!

"But before that, I'll trouble you to accompany me as a porter for a while. Epimetheus said as he looked at the "new humans," he said, "after all, some of them were born for such occasions. (To be continued......)
