Chapter 49: The Four Routes

For Jieli, who has only heard of the mage's prestige from stories and legends, it is inevitable that she will be worried about Lijielit's safety.

Roth didn't have this worry, not only because he knew that this place was essentially just a recreation of the illusion of the past, even if the process could be more twists and turns, but the ending would always be closed, but also because in Lista's apparition, Lijielit on his side had come out of the mine with a relaxed face grasping a mage.

Because of this, when he saw Lijielit on his side walking out with a half-dead mage in her mouth, he was even more shocked.

"You, this, how ......"

Lijliet opened her mouth and the mage who had only one breath left fell to the ground, "It's not what you said before [Knight's Sword Vampire's Fang], I decided on a whim that I would fight these mages with my teeth." By the way, this one on the ground is a necromancer, it's so disgusting that I can't suck it down, you help me make up for it, and I have to chase after one of them. ”

As soon as she finished speaking, she turned into a black ball and flew away, and Lot struggled to identify it as a slightly fat bat.

Roth looked at the necromancer struggling on the ground, and said to Jieli, "It's better for you to use the Holy Light here, right?"

Jieli, who had not hesitated to face Ligeret and Kosie before, hesitated for some reason at this time, and finally mustered up the courage to aim the emblem of the god of light at the necromancer who didn't know whether he was dead or alive.

A subtle flickering light was stimulated from the emblem, and the necromancer's body was gradually purified after a few weak screams, and for some reason the body gradually turned white, and finally completely dissipated.

After doing this, Jieli looked very tired, but with a relieved smile on her face.

Even with respect for the true God than faith in his heart, it is difficult for Roth to understand what is wrong with Jieli.

Just as Roth was about to care about her, with the sudden fluctuation of magic power, an unstable portal suddenly opened, and a male voice came from behind the portal: "Don't, don't bite me anymore! I will open the portal, you don't need to bite me and fly back!"

Lijliet walked through the portal with a howling mage in her mouth, and the portal spell was obviously not released well, so that the vampire was cut off many corners from his clothes by the amorphous edge when passing through it, and the mage who was lifted by her neck could only curl up in order to avoid losing a few limbs in the process, and the consequence of his feet off the ground was that the weight of his whole body could only be supported by his own neck and Lijielit's teeth.

The vampire's teeth seemed fine, and his neck was starting to make a noise.

With this outrageous image, Roth realizes that he can't see Lista's apparition, just as he did when he fought Lijielit, who had just woken up.

Roth understood that it must be because of some kind of disagreement between his own illusion and Lista's side that could change the development of the entire past, and the initial point of disagreement was whether or not to be hostile to the newly awakened Lijielit, but Lista's side somehow corrected it.

So where is the divergence here?

Roth carefully observed the face of the mage who had been picked up by Lizzett, and secretly congratulated himself that he was accustomed to paying attention to people's facial features because he had to be proficient in using the fast pocket watch, otherwise he might not have been able to see what this face, distorted by fear, shame, and pain, looked like.

That's right, this mage is the same mage that Ligerlit on Lista's side would normally catch.

In other words, the point of divergence is not him, Roth looked at Jieli, who was stunned by Lijielit again, and secretly rejoiced in his heart - he made the right bet.

——

"It's too early to rejoice, alas. ”

——

"Beak, (hey!!!) (Don't you say anything?)" said Ligerlit, holding the neck of a mage in her mouth.

Roth asked very confidently, "You mean the [Knight's Sword Vampire's Fang]?"

Lijielit was relieved, "Yes, I ...... with practical actions."

The finally liberated mage took out a ring from his bosom, and before he had time to put it on, he pointed it at Lijielit and shouted, "Go to the astral plane and repent for your rudeness!"

The malicious teleportation spell in the ring was activated instantly, and the vampire who became the target was supposed to be forcibly transported out of the world, and even if she was not torn apart during the teleportation, sooner or later she would have spread into particles in the void without any matter or energy.

However, Lijliet just screamed a few times with "oh oh oh!" and then ...... again Got back on your feet.

"Lizzie, what's wrong with you!" Roth was frightened, he couldn't see the phantom of Lista anymore, he couldn't predict what would happen in the false future, and he couldn't accept it falling short.

"It's okay, it's okay, it's just this kid who beat him for a short time...... What do you call me?" Lijielit regained her space-time coordinates, and just wanted to teach this dishonest mage a lesson, but she realized that Rot's name just now was not quite right.

Roth said with some embarrassment: "Ah no, the situation was very urgent just now, so I omitted to call ......"

Lijielit reached out to grab the mage, and said by the way: "I really solved the matter of these mages with my teeth, I want you to give some reaction, but I didn't expect it to be a nickname, don't you think it's easy to confuse with Jieli's name?"

Jieli said "ah" and said, "I don't care!"

"That's not the point...... Why have you become honest again?" asked Ligerlit, looking at her mage.

The mage who was good at teleportation spells was already kneeling with his neck crooked.

If the spell was interfered with or cracked, he might have other thoughts, even if it was exempted, but the malicious teleportation technique was clearly released, but this vampire forcibly left herself in this world, this is no longer such a simple matter as the gap in strength, and the mage only hates himself now for not knowing a more humble way.

"I was my only backhand, I surrendered! I will do whatever you tell me to do!" he said aloud, abandoning all his dignity.

It wasn't a last resort, but he didn't feel the need to try anything else.

"A smart person who doesn't care about dignity is easy to talk to. But you still beat it shortly. Lijliet was impressed, but beat him up anyway.

"Ahhh

After making sure that the other party's face was completely swollen, Lijielit stopped with satisfaction, pulled the mage by the collar and said, "Introduce yourself!"

"Yes, ahem, I'm Sken, a mage of the Xiluo Clan, and I live in Lantan Country......" Sken said with a swollen face tilting his neck.

Lijliet interrupted him again at this time: "It's enough to know the name, there's no need for the superfluous!"

"Yes!"

Roth didn't know what to say about this person, and asked Lijielit, "Lijielit, why do you want to keep this person?"

"He seems to be very good at teleportation spells, and I think he should be able to help. Sken, we're going to save people, and if you're willing to help, I'll let you go afterwards, what do you think?" asked Lijliet, pinching Sken.

"No problem, I'll go up the knife mountain and down the sea of fire!" Sken nodded.

Lijielit also nodded and said, "That's a good point, but I won't let you go to any sword mountain and sea of fire, just go to that black castle to save people, you know?

"Well, the Black Castle...... Could it be the one that originally belonged to the vampires, but was somehow taken over by demons?"

A line crawled out of the black lady's outfit on Lijielit's body and wrapped it around her fingers, "I know you definitely don't want to go, so I'll give you a little more motivation!"

The black line, or the black worm, slowly stretched out towards Sken, and the mage's eyes widened in horror, but he didn't dare to resist, and watched as the black worm approached his face and burrowed into his skin.

For some reason, his swollen face, which had been beaten, was swollen again.

"I'm sorry to do this to you, but I cured your face as compensation!" Lijielit said with a smile.

Roth couldn't help but say, "What is your personality......

Jieli held the emblem of the god of light on the side and prayed for something, no wonder the girl had been alone with this wandering vampire in the past, no wonder her faith was challenged.

"There's nothing hard about my personality, I just care more about whether I'm happy or not. "Ligeret doesn't care.

Rott gave up on pursuing this point for a while, and asked, "Then do you need to ask other adventurers for help?"

"I don't have to look for it, because I'm done. Lijielit held out three fingers, "What a waste of time to wait until you get the money to start looking for someone? Of course, it's looking for someone while making money!" You don't seem to notice, but I've been seducing and controlling some passers-by, looking for adventurers who are strong enough to be persuaded by money, and now I've already looked for three candidates, only a deposit. ”

"Hey Sken!" said Lijlitt to the hapless mage, "I've already put those three coordinates into your head, go back to the mine and teleport the elemental stone to it!"

"Yes......" The mage's response was not as refreshing as before, full of helplessness and remorse, but with more sincerity.

"Oops~ This saves me from having to move by myself, magic is so convenient!" Lijlitt stretched, "Those three adventurers will try to save people from the three different routes I provided them, Rot, you and that mage go the fourth ...... You don't want to go this far, do you? Even if you don't go, it's okay......."

Roth said angrily: "Why don't you let me go!?"

Jieli hesitated and said, "I, can't I help?" I also want to save the people in the village......

Lijielit scratched her head and said, "Jieli, you can't do it, now my castle is full of vampires except for demons, and as the priest of the god of light, you will be found as soon as you get close." And it's hard for your power to work too much, unless...... Well, no, let's not talk about it. ”

"I'll do anything, unless what!" asked Jieli, who didn't think she might really come in handy, excitedly.

"Unless I turn you into a vampire, I can give you a portion of the power so you can take the fifth path into the castle. Lijliet said with a somewhat embarrassed expression.

"Absolutely not!" said Roth immediately, "Jieli, your real wish is to return to your old life, right? If you become a vampire, you will not only betray your faith, but also leave the village forever, right?"

Lijielit said: "Although I also think it is inappropriate, but it is not to the point where it is absolutely impossible, right? I think Jieli's home in the village is also quite shabby, and she does the work of going to the mountains to guard the tomb every day, so it doesn't matter if she can go back or not, right? But faith, this is really a problem, so I don't want to take the initiative to say it." ”

"I, I'm ......" Jieli hesitated.

——

"It's good to be able to get this far, if she hadn't taken care of Jieli's mental state before, she wouldn't have hesitated when her faith had collapsed. But you're not the only one who has come to this point, and the problem is behind...... People who are too strong can't get in, people who aren't strong enough can't do it, what [Realm of Delusion] is, it's just a waste magic!"

——

"It's enough to rescue the villagers, right?, by the way, since you've sucked so much mage's blood, shouldn't your strength have almost recovered?"

Lijielit was unhappy, "You also underestimate me, how can it be that this is almost recovered? That is, the magic power has indeed recovered to a good level, after all, these mages are all the kind that are one step behind the legend, but the blood is not enough at all! If you are not a legend, then the nature of life will not change fundamentally, and the life origin of these mages cannot withstand a few ordinary people, at best, although my strength has recovered a little more than half! It is no problem to help you create opportunities, but I don't guarantee that I can do more." ”

Isn't there the ball of light that Van Helsing handed you? Rott almost said this, but he realized that it was inappropriate in time and held back his words.

That Van Helsing is probably also Jieli's godfather, and if he can't say it clearly, it won't work, and if he says it clearly, there will be unnecessary trouble.

Lijriet looked at the tangled two, sighed, and condensed a blood ball on her right hand, which then turned into a bat.

She handed the red bat to Jieli and said, "I promise to do my best to save the villagers, but I will really only try to not put myself in it." Three of the four people who were about to infiltrate the castle were for money, and all the way they were coerced by me...... Well, plus an inexplicable wonderful person, none of whom can save people at any cost, and it's normal for you to want to go in person. But you don't have to make a decision right away, take it with you, if all four groups are planted, I'll tell you through it, and if you decide to save the villagers even if you become a vampire, just let it bite you. ”

Jieli stretched out her hands, saw the emblem of the god of light in her hand, and quickly put it away, and then took the round red bat with a tremble.

Roth understood the situation.

In the original past, Jieli must have become a vampire, and if she wants to change the past, it's not enough to stop her here!

The process can be changed, but the outcome is not allowed to change, and this is the key to recreating the past of the Lost Realm.

Only by obtaining the divine art of the true body can the past be truly changed, otherwise everything is just [vanity].

No matter how strong a mortal's longing is, it is no match for time.

Now that the true God is asleep, it is impossible to change the past.

The pastist priests who have not been heard from since their defection must be repeating every part of the past about the true God somewhere in the filthy and polluted area, trying to find a way to keep the true God from falling asleep.

Although compared to their noble desire to save the true God, what they want to change here is only the fate of a little girl, but in the face of the past, these may not make any difference at all.

At the moment when the road ahead was clear, Roth felt not hope, but an incomparably heavy pressure.

In order for Jieli to become a vampire, the four groups that infiltrate the castle must fail, in other words, Roth must successfully rescue the villagers before he can change the past.

Roth doesn't think that this illusion really has the ability to affect the real past, but even so, the past is not to be offended, and he must be thwarted by the full force of this world.

...... It's too early to say give up, at least do your best!

Do your best......

For what?

Is it just to solve this black castle?

If he solves this place, he can gain prestige and money, but it doesn't matter, he doesn't really need honor other than Joel's master, at least not to the point of fighting for his life;

After solving this, you can get rid of the suspicion of [Disaster Star], and you can not be entangled by those [Evil Person], but this is not necessary, as long as you don't cause any disaster in this sensitive area, the suspicion of [Disaster Star] is already self-defeating;

With this out of the way, this adventure will be a better story when told to Joel, but he must be more concerned about his own safety than this Joel;

Solved here, the real Lijielit who stayed in the depths of blood and darkness may be liberated......

Damn, but what does that matter to him? All he knows is the illusory Lijielet! That Lijielit may have the same personality and appearance, but can she be a human being?

It's better to say that even the relationship between Lijielit and him in the illusion is far from reaching the point where he can fight for his life, right?

Ahh......h

Roth was in a state of utter confusion.

"Huh, is this man serious!?"
