Chapter 532: The Conspiracy of the Two Sides
"Sister Moon Shadow, after Mephisto died, the demons here are indeed weaker than before, but I don't think it's necessarily a good thing for us. Also, you just said, let's not choose the way the Burning Legion wants, so what kind of way do they want us to save Major General Sun? Leng Shuang looked at Jiang Yueying with a blank face and asked her.
"Hehe, isn't the idea of the Burning Legion already very clear? What they hope for is that we will do our best to save Major General Sun. Think about it, what is the reason why the Burning Legion has besieged Major General Sun Luoyang for so long, but has never made a move? Don't think that the Burning Legion is a waste legion! It is absolutely impossible for the Burning Legion to become one of the three major legions in the empty space. The fact that they were able to besiege Major General Sun Luoyang for two months shows that they definitely have the strength to kill Major General Sun before we can react. But they didn't. β
"I know that, didn't you just say that? The purpose of the Burning Legion is to attract us here. If they kill Major General Sun in a hurry, it will be impossible for Sun Luoying and us to enter this world. Leng Shuang raised his hand and said to Jiang Yueying.
"That's right. The purpose of the Burning Legion is Sun Luoying. To be precise, it was the pioneering mission world in Sun Luoying's hands that had been monopolized by our Predator Legion! Therefore, they deliberately did not concentrate enough strength to kill Major General Sun Luoyang in this world, the purpose was to let us see hope and make us think that we could save Major General Sun Luoyang. However, when we do this, we have already fallen into the calculations of the Burning Legion. β
"What do you mean? You mean, the Burning Legion deliberately asked us to save Major General Sun?" Leng Shuang became more and more confused when he heard this.
"Huh...... The style of the Burning Legion is clear to me. This is how their wise men like to lay it out the most. They like to lure their prey into the trap step by step. Every time the prey they are targeting feels that they are extremely close to the target and can defeat them, they will suddenly show their hole cards, so that the prey understands that when they continue to get close to the target, they have fallen into the snare of the Burning Legion. The seemingly approaching target in front is just an illusion, but in fact, it is the Burning Legion that is really approaching the target. β
"Then you mean, the feeling that we can save my brother now is just a hallucination deliberately revealed by the Burning Legion?" Sun Luoying couldn't help but ask when she heard this.
"No, being able to save Major General Sun is not necessarily an illusion. Because the goal of the Burning Legion was not him from the beginning. Jiang Yueying entered the wise man mode, and while curling her hair with her fingertips, she said with a cold face, "In this mission, we can be sure that there is only one goal from beginning to end, and that is you!"
Jiang Yueying pointed at Sun Luoying, and continued: "We must look at this matter as a whole. The ultimate goal of the Burning Legion is to destroy our Predator. Isn't that right?"
"That's right. Sun Luoying, Leng Shuang and the others all nodded convincingly.
"Our Predator is in fact in a great predicament, standing on the precipice of annihilation. The only thing that can hinder the Burning Legion from accomplishing this ultimate goal is the pioneering quest world that you and Ho Zhi have just mastered. Isn't that right?"
"Not bad. A few people still nodded.
"Major General Sun Luoyang is certainly a big fish to the Burning Legion, but in the overall situation, he is actually irrelevant. Is it important for the Burning Legion to kill Major General Sun Luoyang in this mission? It doesn't matter!" Jiang Yueying thought seriously as she said, "As long as the Burning Legion can solve the pioneering mission world that dropped Sakura, then they can wipe out our Predator Legion." When the time comes, Major General Sun Luoyang will still be unable to escape death. Naturally, they don't need to be in a hurry. So, the most crucial point in our battle against the Burning Legion in this mission is you. β
Jiang Yueying stretched out her finger again and pointed at Luo Ying seriously.
"I, but I've already transferred the ownership of the pioneering mission world to He Zhi!" Rakkura couldn't help frowning when she heard this.
"Yes, you have transferred control of that world to He Zhi. But don't forget, you're the original master of that world. In the empty space, the primordial controller is an extremely special existence, even if you transfer the control, you will have to wait until you die before He Zhi can have the exclusive authority of that world. Otherwise, the ownership of the pioneering mission world can only be half controlled by you and He Zhi alone. β
"So what?" Sun Luoying said with a frown, "If the Burning Legion tries to use my remaining authority to do something, they are dreaming. If it falls into their hands, I will naturally cut myself off. Don't forget, I'm a cultivator! Even if I'm only a non-commissioned officer-level reincarnation, if I want to kill myself, even if the Burning Legion sends out a general, it will be impossible to stop it. β
"Hehe, Luo Ying, do you still think that the Burning Legion wants to kill you?" Jiang Yueying couldn't help but hold her forehead and shake her head when she said this, "The Burning Legion wants to deal with you, and the way is not just to kill you! Let me make the simplest analogy! Have you ever thought that you are now a sergeant, and you are also a senior sergeant, it is not too much to say 'half a step away' from the rank of second lieutenant? If the Burning Legion finds a way to give you a large number of merit points in this mission, and force you to be promoted to second lieutenant. What do you think will happen?"
"What?" Sun Luoying was stunned when she heard this.
Before entering this mission, Sun Luoying had also considered various methods and possibilities for the Burning Legion to deal with her. Moreover, Sun Luoying even thought about several situations in which she needed to find a way to kill herself, and the Burning Legion tried to prevent it. However, Sun Luoying really didn't think about it from beginning to end, what would happen if the Burning Legion wanted to force her to upgrade?
If there is a bad word, this is the difference between the true and the wise and the pseudo-wise.
A true wise man can imagine all kinds of possibilities when laying out, while a pseudo-wise man can only see a third of an acre in front of him.
When Jiang Yueying pointed out another possibility for the Burning Legion, Sun Luoying immediately realized. It's not that she doesn't know the rules of empty space, it's just that when she was thinking about the problem, Sun Luoying didn't think about it in this direction at all - her thinking was still linear - the Burning Legion was the enemy, and since it was an enemy, it must be hostile, and it must be trying to kill her. Even if you don't kill her, you have to find a way to catch her. As for giving her a bunch of meritorious points, Sun Luoying didn't think about it at all. Isn't this a capital enemy? How is that possible?
"This ...... If so, then...... Won't I show up?" Rakkura was a little dazed, and after pondering for a while, she said crampedly, "Or will I just return to the Demon Fortress and wait for your news?"
"Hehe, the Burning Legion's bureau has been laid out. Do you think it will be useful for you to return to the Demon Fortress? Since the Burning Legion has the ability to trap Major General Sun Luoyang in this world, of course it also has the ability to trap us. If you refuse to show up, the Burning Legion can add more forces to trap us and Major General Sun Luoyang together. What will you do when the time comes?Do you simply give us up and withdraw from this world and let the Burning Legion's conspiracy fail, or do you want to come in again and try to rescue us?" Jiang Yueying shattered Sun Luoying's plan with a cruel question.
"This ...... So what should we do?" Sun Luoying didn't know what to do at all.
"Quite simply, we can at least be sure that the Burning Legion's target is you alone! He was just a reincarnation who had just entered the empty space, and even if the Burning Legion invested more merit points in him at one time, it would be impossible for him to cross four ranks in a row to let him enter the captain's quarters. So, the Burning Legion can only target you! We'll count on this point of the Burning Legion, and we'll count it out......"
"Sister Moon Shadow, what you just said seems to be a bit problematic. When Jiang Yueying was talking energetically, Leng Shuang suddenly said coldly.
"What's the problem?"
"I think if the Burning Legion wants to solve the problem of the task of opening up the world, it seems that there is no longer only one way to deal with Sun Luoying. Leng Shuang said cutely, his fingers turned around He Zhi and Sun Luoying, "Aren't they the only two of them who are the masters of the world?
"That's true, but it's not very likely that the Burning Legion will do it. Jiang Yueying shook her head and said, "If the Burning Legion was really ready to kill us, they should have started to mobilize people into this world on a large scale by now." But from what we know so far, the Burning Legion didn't do that. Moreover, right now, the Heavenly Dao Alliance is also on our side, waging a war against the Burning Legion. I doubt the Burning Legion has enough strength to kill us. You must know that killing all of us without missing a single one, and letting Sakura advance are two completely different things of difficulty. β
"Hmm...... That's right. If the Burning Legion had managed to kill us all, they would have done so long ago. Since they haven't done it until now, it means that they can't do it. Leng Shuang nodded clearly and said seriously.
"Anyway, we don't think the Burning Legion can do anything to kill us all. Now that we have entered this world, unless we retreat now, leave Sun Luoyang alone, and leave directly, otherwise, as long as the Burning Legion has such power, we have no way to escape. So, this option we don't need to consider. The only thing we need to think about at the moment is still how to prevent the Burning Legion from making a fuss about Sakura. Moreover, in the later battles, Sakura Falling still can't help but appear. β
"Major Jiang, if according to what you just said, the Burning Legion wants to instill a large number of merit points in me and make me a second lieutenant, what means do they have?" Luo Ying thought carefully for a while, and solemnly asked Jiang Yueying again.
"Hehe, what's this...... There aren't too many ways to do it. Jiang Yueying nodded with a smile, with a somewhat confident expression.
"The Predator Legion is close. In the temple of Diablo, two Burning Legion majors who had just escaped from Mephisto were standing in front of a man with long hair and flowing hair who looked like medieval nobles, and reported to him with solemn expressions, "Colonel Marshall, this time there is likely to be a true disciple from the True Immortal Legend in the other party's lineup. Be vigilant. β
Major Thomson tried his best to emphasize to his own colonel the strength of his opponent. Of course, this is also related to his desire to get rid of the charge. At Mephisto, Major Thomson suffered a crushing defeat.
In the plan of the Burning Legion, the person who entered the Demon Fortress should have been the only one who was Sun Luoying. He Zhi: They should be kept out of the demon fortress.
But now He Zhi and his party entered the Demon Fortress with Sun Luoying, which greatly increased the variables of the Burning Legion's plan.
"Huh...... Of course I know what "The Legend of the True Immortals" is all about. But Thomson, don't be scared by those Orientals. They are too fond of exaggerated descriptions and brag about their own strength without any bottom line. In the final analysis, that Oriental is just a cultivator of the strength of a major. Perhaps able to compete with the lieutenant colonel, there are some other means. But in front of us, he has no chance of winning. "Colonel Marshall was a standard Western supremacist with a visceral contempt for the Easterners.
Moreover, in previous battles, Colonel Marshall had also defeated some of the Eastern Xiuzhen reincarnations, so he did not attach as much importance to Xiuzhen as Major Thomson.
This, of course, is also related to Colonel Marshall's own peculiarities. The direction of his enhancement in the reincarnation space can be called a "Xiuzhen Buster" in a wayβColonel Marshall is a "Holy Spirit Missionary", and this status gives him an advantage against any opponent who believes in other mystical forces.
Of course, his strengthening direction is a bit stretched when facing the reincarnation of the technology side. But Xiuzhen happens to be the reincarnation of the mysterious side. When Marshall fights against the cultivators, he is able to exert at least 120% of his strength.
"It's just going to be as we had planned. Hmph! This time, the plan was drawn up by General Depp himself. It's absolutely seamless. You don't have to worry. Colonel Marshall took one last look at Sun Luoyang, who appeared in the crystal ball, and smiled contemptuously again.
