"It's very simple, just give me your life box. ā€

"Do you think we'll agree?"

"Do you think this condition is too harsh? No, no, no, Katzejek, imagine it," there were five little girls who approached the 'Spirit Suckers', and only one person spoke, but the contempt on the five immature faces was the same: "In order to prevent some people from making any unnecessary fantasies, I will reluctantly explain, the only function of this rune is to explode, but because of its single power, the effect is not bad...... Even if the protective circle here is intact, it will not be able to block one of the blows. ā€

"Pointless. The black-robed spirit sucker sneered, "Whether it's the mastermind or these spirit suckers, we can take them away before you activate the magic circle, and it won't hurt us to blow up this place." ā€

"Really, little octopus, do you want me to remind you, if you can't make a decision, you'd better not talk nonsense?" a Marilyn whispered, and then a few little Marilyns chuckled together, "If you can, why do you think your elder is talking nonsense to me? If I'm not mistaken, his life box is not far from here, so, you see, he doesn't have many options now?"

"Either you die, or live as my servant, which path are you going to choose?"

At the same time as the voice came out, the body of this little Marilyn was full of light! Countless symbols burst from her body, and in an instant, the entire space in the brain pool was filled!

A moment of light, then faded.

Dark, re-settled in the space, in the silent space, there seemed to be an echo gently humming, but the girl who was originally radiant. has disappeared without a trace.

"Oh, good trick. Unexpectedly, in addition to this old dried octopus, there is actually an interesting little octopus here?" Several small ** masters turned their eyes at the same time, and there was a little surprise in the mocking aftermath: "However, can it really be solved all?"

Edward withdrew his hand, his gaze swept over the surroundings, the dozen shadows that were gradually gathering.

The blow just now, unhindered by anything...... No, it's better that she is trying to achieve the purpose of intimidation. Deliberately showed mercy, right?

It seems that this vicious and weird thinking has nothing to do with age...... Under the general premise, as a ** division, he should not be familiar with this way of fighting terrorists, but obviously, this ** division in front of him is definitely not the kind of guy who has been staying in the mage tower all the time. At least in terms of intimidation, he is a qualified terrorist.

Predict the location of important targets. Gradually increase the number of intimidation bombs. In this case, the next thing should be to disrupt the opponent's ability to think with a time-limiting trap, right?

"So, I'll just count them, within ten numbers, I can detonate all the runes, right?"

Really......

"Little octopus, at the time of the explosion. It's a good idea to throw me on the astral plane, and your strength is indeed strong enough to break through my mental defenses in an instant. This is something to be praised, it seems. You're the hole card that this old dried octopus has specially cultivated?"

didn't start counting down, more than a dozen girl's version of the ** master at the same time set their eyes on the black-robed 'spirit absorbing monster', looked up and down carefully, and seemed to suddenly be interested in him:

"It's sad enough that you'd consider my Burst Rune Chain to be the same as those inferior fiery gels and the like. I'll admit that the downside of this rune is that it's a bit slower, but do you think I'll not be able to freely control the effect of the stagnant rune?

The black-robed 'Spirit Sucker' just stood still. The silver eyes reflected a multicolored luster.

Layers of runes spread out on each of Marilyn's bodies, and surging energy swept around, as if bringing the surroundings in

"The accumulation of knowledge, this is something that no talent can make up, wisdom and intelligence complement each other, indispensable, the old octopus has made you perfect enough, but if you want to become a useful subordinate, you still need some time to temper it...... Still, you're funny, I don't feel like he's done anything to you, whether it's a ** or a soul, or is he just deceiving you with some lies?"

The little girls each sat down out of thin air, and a force supported their small bodies to float upward, condescendingly looking at the two spirit absorbing monsters, one virtual and one real:

"Well, well, tell me, what did this old dried octopus promise you? Money doesn't mean anything to you...... So is it status, and is it the power to give you this city? or the power to become a lich? Ha, I don't know what it is, but now I can guarantee that he will never be able to give you anything again, because after today he will be my possession, or he will have turned into octopus powder. As for you, well, how about abandoning this stupid old fellow as my partner? I can help you get out of that filthy and deformed body and become a real girl, and I can even provide you with the service of oblivion, and you can also participate in the great process of saving women in the future. ā€

"Thanks a word, but I'm not interested. ā€

"Oh? Or do you want to be a beautiful boy who can save those filthy male creatures? It might be a little harder, although the appearance and function are not a problem, but I haven't had enough time to do so, so the research on intestinal modification has not been put on the agenda...... Hmm, or can I give you a little time?"

"With all due respect, dear lady, ordinary brain food is a dull dish, but I have a little interest in your brain. ā€

The black-robed spirit sucker raised his head, and the eyes as smooth as silver mirrors reflected the smiles of more than a dozen girls gradually converging: "The front is wide and the back is narrow, the skull is long and narrow, the cranial chambers are full, human lady, you must have a perfect brain, if you add a little extreme emotion as a seasoning." Then this should be one of the few good meals that will make my appetite tickle. ā€

It could be understood as a compliment, but it was obviously not a pleasant move for a human woman, especially as the black-robed creature hissed in a shrill voice, and four smooth, greasy tentacles crawled aimlessly on his jaw, as if to show some kind of joy.

"Did you know that human emotions fill the brain with endorphins, which give rise to all sorts of taste tendencies. Most of my fellow citizens prefer one or the other. ā€

It seemed that he didn't notice the stiff expressions on the faces of the ** master's clones at all, and the black-robed 'Spirit Suction Monster' continued unhurriedly: "But I, in terms of you human beings, am a gourmet, so I am very picky about food. My tastes tend to be mixed flavors, and I love the sweetness of fear, the spiciness, and a little bit of sour sadness or numb shock, which makes for an appetizing meal...... But the bitter taste of arrogance is very unpleasant. And the most unbearable thing for me was the smell of disdain, which was rancid. It will make the most perfect brain food become unpalatable dregs. ā€

"Also. Madam Mage, pretending to be smiling and verbally satisfying the demands of others, but in your heart cursing them with vicious words, and making a complete plan for your own tampering with the rules, does not seem to be suitable for what you call sincere cooperation, if the end of the partnership is to be thrown into your real room to mate with animals. Or being turned into a skinned zombie or something, then I'm still not sensitive. ā€

Edward's eyes, which had transformed into two silver balls, moved slightly, and he reaped a little shock on his opponent's expression...... Marilyn's spell linking all the clones is indeed perfect, and the barrier built with the help of the spirits of thousands of clones can almost distort reality. It was an insurmountable wall for any psyker, but because of this, if she had a hole in the wall now, even if it was just a small cave that people could peep into, it would be enough to bring a certain mental blow.

Of course, Edward didn't have the ability to break through the other party's thousands of superimposed mental barriers, but if he wanted to make Marilyn shake a little, he could still do it - throw herself into the real yĆ n room to mate with the animals, and turn into a skinned zombie...... These real projects are definitely not known to the public, at least not by a spirit absorbing monster, so the only reasonable explanation is naturally that the thinking of the ** master was slightly read by the other party.

She doesn't need to be shocked by this, just a little surprise or scruple in her heart is enough, it will make her make a lot of useless calculations in her judgment, and cracks will arise because of this.

Of course, whether it is surprise or scruples, it will not show any traces on the face of His Excellency the ** Master.

"Ah, I almost forgot, the countdown isn't over yet, it's already five or six...... Well, forget it, anyway, aren't you really going to think about my construction to surrender?"

The little ** master patted his palms lightly, and seemed to suddenly realize:

"And I think you might be better off solving the problem here sooner, really, I could even give up the countdown, because you know, now that we've identified this place, it seems to be in my best interest for you to stall for time. ā€

In one of them, she held out a hand, and a glimmer of luster converged in her hand, twisting, and turning into a small illusion.

Edward inhaled slightly,

The phantom was not large, and was completely occupied by a strange figure with tentacles, none other than Katzejek. It's just that the originally elegant and terrifying Eater of Souls Lich now looks quite wolf--his purple-red robe has been more than half torn, revealing a shriveled purple body under it, a huge wound has cut through his purple-red shriveled head, and only one dead white eye remains, and a little orange-red light flashes in the empty eye sockets, adding a bit of weirdness to his face.

"It's not fake. ā€

The master smiled lightly and reminded kindly: "You may not be able to see it, but your Excellency the Elder, he has no possibility of defeating me." His legendary spells have all been completely countered by me, and his psionic energy is almost exhausted, at most after an hourglass scale, he will probably run out of all his means of attack, right? and most importantly, his necromantic minions are already almost equal to the number of my doppelgangers, and when I use up all his powers, I may not be so calm to talk to you about surrender. So. Are you ready?"

This result is indeed shocking, but perhaps it is not so difficult to understand.

It's just a difference in the size of the bet.

Edward didn't know how many perfect doppelgangers Marilyn had...... But even if there are three or five clones close to her own strength, or even two or three, it is difficult for Katzeyek to have a chance of winning in a head-on duel, after all, this is not a civilized mage duel, but a war of life and death, strength is the only criterion, although Katzeyek is powerful, but after all, he is just a lich who has defected to the Spiritsucker population. Marilyn, as one of the only remaining extremely ** masters in the Spell Academy, is indeed not comparable to the richness of his family.

Under normal circumstances, failure does not seem to be so difficult to accept, and at the level of ** division, there are always countless means to get out. As long as he left his life, it would not be a humiliating act to try to take revenge in the future.

But the problem is. There is no turning back for today's thinkers.

The Psychic Warlock turned his head slightly. Looking at the tall figure of the spirit-sucking lich beside him, the latter had been silent since the beginning. Even the shriveled tentacles on his face hung silently, except for the center of his death-white pupils, two orange-red fires pulsing endlessly, showing the lich's fierce turning mind.

How to choose?

Either die or be enslaved for the rest of your life. The choice is indeed very difficult...... Some people say that it is better to die than to live, but there are also many people who are more determined that they would rather die than be free, and treat freedom and life to countless people. There are countless ways to choose in countless eras, and each has its own reason.

But whatever the way you put it, the one who defines it is 'people'.

It is the people who will say that it is better to die than to live, and it is the people who will be determined that they would rather die than be free...... If the object of this definition were to be replaced, then this might not be a problem at all.

The silence went on forever...... After a few breaths.

Time seemed to be slowed down several times by some great force, and the body of the Psicosphite Lich stood still, but then a bony hand stretched out from its robe.

Although it was only a phantom, with his movements, directly above the central brain pool, a stone inlaid with a spiritual inscription suddenly fell with a squeaky sound and slowly flew into his hand.

Edward shook his head slightly.

How could a lich who can give up his body, his identity, appetite, and feelings, and be willing to survive as an undead in order to survive choose to die out?

Or, it is precisely because Katzeyek is sure that he will choose this way that this woman will do so...... If the Lich's lifebox is shattered, he will die, but it will only be one less help for the enemy, which is a pity but not a problem. And if he surrenders, although he loses his freedom, at least he does not have to worry about death.

Compared to a human being, a lich has an almost infinite lifespan, so what's the big deal if it's a few decades, even if it's a hundred years of slavery? Anyway, it's just a pair of rotten bones, is there anything to lose? If you keep your soul, you will keep a qiē, and as for the future, as long as you see the opportunity, you can win it back.

For a moment, the space was so quiet that it could be heard that the three cun zĆ i did not speak, just stared at the silver crystal head on the small piece of stone.

The Lich's life box, though called a box, isn't necessarily a box - the most common form is often a gem, as it is best suited for souls, but it can also be made of metal, bone, or other materials, and there are no restrictions on shapes, from a book staff to a whole set of human bones.

"Is this really your lifebox?"

"Oops...... Tricks and tricks are the strong points of you mollusks, how can a kind and gentle lady like me compare with you? You see, the trick I have come up with is nothing more than to exchange my life with you, an old octopus, by means of the same end, and do you know how much it costs to do so? Although the bodies of these children can be controlled, if they die, the painful feeling will remain in my heart, and I have already cost many children's lives just to conquer your city. You think that's easy?"

"If it weren't for the fight against evil, I really wouldn't want to use these children, after all, they are my doppelgangers, and they are as precious as my offspring, you know?

"Is there any connection between this?"

"Isn't one of the responsibilities of a powerful magical girl to represent justice and eliminate the dregs of those ugly and evil worlds? ā€

"I mean, you don't seem to have anything to do with beautiful girls?" (To be continued......)
