At this moment, Li Li seemed to remember something, glanced at the little white dragon napping at his feet, and frowned and asked.

"By the way, what about Victor?"

That guy is a dangerous person, Li Li originally wanted to kill him with a sword, but he didn't expect that he knew him very well and didn't leak secrets, and the residual value had not been squeezed clean, so he left him first.

But just because you stay doesn't mean you have to let go.

The formation master replied, "Don't worry, Gru came over just now to help us watch him, and he won't be able to escape." ”

"Gru?"

Li Li nodded slowly, relieved.

Gru has the means to ban demons, and Victor really can't run away.

……

A corner of the deck of the flying boat.

Most of the Heavenly Sword Sect and the rescue team and the powerhouses of the Mermaid Clan have left the flying boat and gone to hunt the demonic beasts scattered all over the Mermaid Strait.

At this moment, Corinth and Yao Tan were busy, one accompanied the healing magicians of the mermaid clan to perform hydrotherapy techniques to heal the wounded, and the other buried his head and prescribed the corresponding elixirs and potions to each mermaid.

Even the musicians of the elves were not empty, playing soft tunes to soothe the emotions of the frightened mermaid children, which were mixed with the seemingly non-existent mermaid songs, ethereal and gentle floating on the entire flying boat, quietly healing the wounds suffered by the mermaids.

Compared with the warmth and tranquility over there, the atmosphere in this corner is particularly heavy and depressing.

Victor stood in the corner of the deck with a cold face, his eyes coldly looking at the gray-robed figure in front of him.

After the little white dragon and the formation master left, this thin middle-aged man who was called "Gru" by the formation master took the initiative to come over, saying that he would guard himself for them, and the formation master had no objections and doubts about this, so he really left with peace of mind.

And judging from the attitudes of Li Li and the others, the magician in front of him is obviously one of the core figures in Heavenly Sword City, and even has Li Li's trust.

However, no matter how Victor looked at it, this high-level magician in a gray magic robe was so inconspicuous, whether it was his thin and pale face, his weak body that seemed to be blown away by the wind at any time, or the small dodging actions that he did not dare to look at others, he looked so humble and cowardly, and he did not have the temperament of a strong man at all.

Apart from......

There was an inexplicable familiarity in him.

As if sensing Victor's gaze, Gru suddenly raised his head and looked directly at Victor.

"I know what you're thinking."

Gru interrupted Victor's thoughts with a low voice, but his tone was not heavy, more like an ordinary reminiscence.

"Lord Five, I don't know if you are called that, will you feel more familiar?"

Victor's body shook, and he looked at Gru with a shocked face that couldn't hide the stunned look on his face.

He finally sensed that something was wrong!

There are demonic beasts everywhere around here, so Victor felt that it was not strange that there were residual demonic beasts on the flying boat, but after Gru said this long-lost title, Victor realized that the familiar aura on Gru's body was the same as him, the unique aura of the transformed necromancer!

Gru limped forward two steps, then lifted the corner of the magician's robe with a calm movement.

At the moment when the corners of his robe were lifted, Victor also saw the lame leg that had been hidden under Gru's robe.

Compared to the normal human leg next to him, this leg was twisted and weird, with scales and spikes on it, and the indelible demonic beast aura on Gru's body emanated from it.

But it was precisely because of the identification of Gru that Victor found it even more incredulous.

"You're the Transformed!"

Victor's eyes looked Gru up and down, as if he were looking at some kind of monster.

"You actually lurked in Heavenly Sword City, and even gained the trust of that group of terrible guys?!"

"Lurking?"

Gru had already lowered the corners of his robe, and he straightened his magic robe, and he repeated the word Victor, as if chewing between his lips and teeth, but he did not sneer sarcastically, but shook his head calmly.

"No, I've never lurked in Heavenly Sword City."

"But you ......" Victor's gaze was still on the position of Gru's beast leg, this magician was clearly his kind, no one knew better than Victor what kind of goods these people were in the eyes of the rest of the mainland, it was not too much to say that it was a rat crossing the street, and Heavenly Sword City could still let them swagger in?

In Victor's skeptical gaze, Gru admitted very calmly: "I have lurked inside your necromancer, and of course I will be able to enter Heavenly Sword City after the mission is completed." ”

Victor glared at Gru and gritted his teeth: "When did you join them!" ”

"Don't look at me like a traitor." Gru spread his hands and confessed: "If I have to say, I have been an undercover agent since the first day I was transformed. ”

Grass!

Victor's expression was wonderful, as if he had eaten a slime.

Gru continued, "And I don't believe that you were willing to do things for those guys from the beginning, from a respected knight chief to a cockroach hiding in hiding, from a knight of light who guarded the people to an executioner who mutilated innocents, don't you feel a little uneasy and guilty......"

"I have never killed an innocent person!" Victor's voice was hoarse, and he angrily retorted Gru's words, "And this is not to mutilate, but to save them, to give them the ability to fight against monsters......

Gru interrupted him: "What is the truth, don't you know in your own heart?" ”

"......" Victor suddenly fell silent, glanced to the side and said no more.

"It seems that you know very well what your so-called salvation means to those who have been innocently reduced to test subjects."

"For the sake of the continuation of civilization, there will always be sacrifices." Victor spoke with difficulty, as if to convince Gru, and as if to convince himself: "Even if the person who died is myself, I will never complain." ”

Gru glanced at Victor deeply, and said in a snarling voice: "The Sikong City Lord of Heavenly Sword City once said a sentence that I like very much. ”

"What?" Victor was stunned for a moment.

"You don't have the right to demand that everyone be as great as you are, and you don't have the right to make decisions for anyone." "Even the most gifted child, if his dream is to become a mediocre grower, as long as he does not harm anyone and interfere with anyone's interests, then he has the right to enjoy the life he chooses in the field." ”

"......" Victor frowned and didn't speak, obviously not agreeing with Gru's words, but couldn't find any reason to refute it for a while.

He just said coldly: "The Church of Light is rotten, it is simply a lackey of the divine envoys, under their teachings, this continent will be finished sooner or later, and the continent must establish a new order in order to have the ability to protect itself!" ”

"It's still a sentence from the Sikong City Lord." Gru looked at Victor coldly, and repeated the sentence he silently memorized: "Small, you are small." ”

“……”

"Just like I said that the necromancers are all in search of great power to kill ordinary people, but you counter that there are people like you who have to take this path in order to find a way to survive for them, how can you come to the conclusion that the Church of Light is all God-made lackeys? You know, the world is not black and white, and you, you haven't even figured out who the real enemy is, isn't the pattern not small? ”

“……”

Victor fell silent again.

Gru didn't bother to argue with Victor about this, it was obvious that the two were not on the same path, and words alone could not convince each other.

He changed his mind and got to the point of the conversation.

"Although I think your greatest value right now is to die quickly and return the world to a clean -"

“……”

Victor stared at Gru coldly, if it weren't for the fact that he had fallen into the hands of this group of people in Heavenly Sword City now, and he still had the poison fed by Yao Tan, he would definitely have blown up the head of the traitor in front of him now!

Undeterred, Gru continued to say calmly: "But since Lord Li Li didn't kill you right away, it means that you should be different from those really murderous and selfish necromancers, maybe you still have a little bit of value and meaning in life." ”

“……”

And so it is.

Victor is a very subtle and complex being among necromancers.

Unlike most of the necromancers, who enjoy the pleasures of supreme authority, either to make themselves stronger, or simply to conquer the world, Victor is probably the only one who really wants to save the world by transforming humanity.

His beliefs were even purer than Sasim, the founder of this organization.

In the process, his will has also undergone numerous changes.

From the beginning of wanting to protect all the weak, it has become a desire to sacrifice some people to protect more people...... But all the while, what he wanted to do was to protect.

Perhaps it has something to do with his original identity - representing the knight of the guardian.

But in order to achieve the purpose of protection, he has unknowingly stained the lives of many innocent people on his hands.

Maybe he didn't catch the people who used them to do the experiments, and maybe he didn't do the experiments that he transformed.

But he clearly has the power to refute, but he remains silent, and at this time, silence is also a kind of complicity.

Victor tilted his head away from Gru's gaze, his expression as cold and disdainful as at first, but his shoulders tightened uncontrollably.

"If you just want to taunt me, a captive, you don't have to."

"Not really." Gru denied this, and his eyes grew hot as he looked at Victor.

"Of course I'm coming to you to do something meaningful."

"For example?"

"For example, I'm curious about where the rest of the people are." Gru pointed to his own leg, which was obvious.

The ranks of necromancers are very large, spread to every corner of the continent, not just those in the Dungeon of the Warcraft Mountain Range.

But since the leaders of the necromancers have died one after another, the necromancers who were originally doing evil on the mainland have completely disappeared, and the experience of running for their lives for many years has made them like a fish in water when they want to hide themselves, and no one can find them at all-

Except for the last leader who mastered the necromancer's internal contacts, Victor.

In fact, as Gru guessed, Victor was able to contact other necromancers, which is why he was so confident that he could create a dark church to fight against the church of light, he was never the commander of the light pole.

Victor sneered, "Do you want me to take the others to surrender to Heavenly Sword City like you and become their lackeys to do things for them?" ”

Gru explained solemnly: "First of all, I have never really served you from beginning to end, so my joining Heavenly Sword City is not called surrender, but it should be called returning to the organization; Secondly, Heavenly Sword City has always needed any lackeys, what we need is partners, and all the people in Heavenly Sword City are independent individuals, not vassals. ”

Victor's face was expressionless: "It's ridiculous, what kind of existence do we people have in the eyes of those people outside, do you think I don't know?" We simply don't need, and can't have, partners. ”

"And what's the matter with me?" Gru smiled at Victor and pressed his wand to his heart: "Or do you think that Lord Li Li will deliberately accompany me in this play in order to deceive you, who is not a threat?" ”

Victor: "......"

Again, this kind of thing that I don't want to admit at all, but I can't find a reason to refute it.

"And do you think you have a choice? Victor. Gru asked sincerely: "If you are willing to cooperate with Heavenly Sword City, you can still play your value before you die, but if you still want to gather that group of rats to dominate the world or something, then you will return to Heavenly Sword City next, and there is a high probability that you will be sent to the central hospital." ”

Victor now felt a sudden pain in his temples as soon as he heard about Huitian Sword City, and he said vigilantly: "What is the central hospital?" ”

"It's my territory." Gru raised his wand elegantly, and said calmly: "I have learned a lot of dissection techniques from your necromancer, if you really don't want to be a partner, then I have to use you as my experimental subject, dissect your body and soul together, it doesn't matter if you fail, just without your scourge, it is better if you succeed, we naturally have the means and ways to find other mice according to the way you remember." ”

Victor's face changed suddenly, his eyes stared at Gru fiercely, and he asked in a cold voice: "You keep calling us rats, saying that we kill innocents, how good is it for you to listen to what you say?" ”

"Do you not listen to what you are saying, innocent...... Do you really consider yourself an innocent? Gru frowned and looked at Victor with a visceral disgust in his eyes. And I'm just treating you the way you treat other people, why aren't you satisfied? ”

"......" Victor was silent again, this time the silence was long, and Gru did not urge, slowly arranging his robe, waiting for Victor to speak.
