Please offer everything to Her Majesty the Princess

67. Grace's blood splashed and fell on her forehead

When Afro said this, he no longer knew what he was feeling.

I have imagined countless times how I can protect the people I want to protect.

But when facing real death and something invincible, the heart starts pounding with fear.

Would her parents and brother be sad? Would Meilin secretly cry? What about the children in the orphanage?

The huge puppet trapped in the mysterious space began its massive resistance like a ferocious beast lurking in a cage.

The sharp sword blade and the outstretched arms clanged against the golden barrier.

In the next second, a fierce fist wind could completely defeat him from behind.

The sound was deafening.

The collar around the princess' neck was shrouded in a fluorescent blue light.

Her body was trembling as she crossed the stairs step by step, and her shoulders seemed to be shaking hard against invisible forces.

The Grim Reaper behind him was already knocking on the door.

Although the giant puppet took up most of the space on the crystal staircase, petite Grace could easily pass through it.

The magic power in Aphrodite's body was constantly dissipating, and her unconscious legs were like a dead tree with tangled roots, unable to move at all.

Watching the girl staggering towards safety, her heart was as sincere as the blue sea.

Death is scary.

But there is no use being afraid...

As long as she's okay...

As long as she is still alive...

The corridor of fragile crystal sculptures emits dazzling flashes.

Aphrodite seemed to see an invisible and sacred goddess placing her loving hands on her body through the uneven edges of the crystal.

Is this the affirmation given to me by God?

Grace's body was straight and under the control of the collar, moving forward and forward.

Finally, she passed through the light curtain, and her fair bare feet stepped onto the platform between the fourth and fifth floors.

Her beautiful eyes were bloodshot and her pupils were shattered as if the sky was falling and the earth was splitting apart. She looked at the hexagram array that symbolized life and hope with trembling eyes.

Hope is just around the corner, less than two meters away.

But that was not what she wanted to see!

Grace was so angry that she was going crazy, no, she was about to explode!

The originally dry wilderness of the heart was set on fire by Aphrodite's spark.

Afro is a coward!

Grace couldn't help but roar in her heart.

Aphrodite—she's a complete and utter coward!

Didn't I already give her my trust? Why didn't she dare?

Now he just wanted to grab her collar and question her - why didn't she dare!

There is no need for her to make such inexplicable sacrifices!

Coward! Virgin heart! Sentimental fool! Fool!

——If I escape from the illusion, can Afro survive?

The angry Grace's body was driven like a puppet and stopped in front of the magic circle.

The pale blue light curtain in front of the magic circle was like an unknown area marked out in the game, directly blocking those cold puppets.

Therefore, the puppet that used glass beads as eyes to explore its vision attacked Afro, the only remaining one on the field, with murderous intent.

Before Grace's brain had time to plan out countless possible moments, there was suddenly a horrifying loud noise - "bang", coming from the girl's ears.

At the same time, the crisp sound of crystal breaking, the girl's wailing, the stretching sound of mechanical connecting rods, the sound of steel knives breaking through the air, all kinds of noisy, painful and tragic sounds mixed together.

It allows one to imagine, without thinking, the hell on earth that Aphrodite is experiencing.

Grace's red pupils dilated, and suddenly, like being hit by a heavy hammer, they were smashed into pieces.

"Aphrodite!"

Like a kite with a broken string, Grace finally regained control of her body.

She felt an inexplicable fear in her heart.

This fear was driving Grace to look back without thinking.

With her hands wrapped in ribbons and placed on the crystal guardrail, she saw a shocking scene that she had never seen before in her life.

The gorgeous crystal corridor was split in half from the middle.

In the air where the stars splashed down to the bottom, Afro's dress spread out like a broken lily blown away by the wind.

The golden hair fluttered and sank along with the scattered crystal fragments. The girl seemed to have fallen into a silent deep sea.

Two puppets also fell from midair, stretching out their arms to chase Afro while waving sharp steel knives to cut off the debris scattered in the air.

What happens when Aphrodite falls to the bottom?

Will Aphrodite fall into the darkest abyss, or be smashed into pieces? Or... die?

Grace opened her eyes wide in shock, her bound hands clenched tightly and turned red, and for the first time, her chest was heaving violently with unspeakable emotions.

But fortunately, in reality, it was not as cruel as Grace imagined.

The girl's light body seemed to be supported by some floating object, and she slowly and steadily landed two meters above the ground.

The star-like ground is fake.

Boom! The puppets' steel legs fell to the ground with a loud crash.

Then the arm stretched out again and went towards the weak and powerless Afro.

Their target has always been the girl who ordered them not to look back.

Avro will die!

Grace gritted her teeth and hammered hard on the crystal guardrail.

I have never been a person who is afraid of death.

There is nothing to expect between people, and naturally there is nothing to owe between people.

You can’t owe me anything, so, Afro—I won’t allow you to die either! !

Grace's bulging red pupils vividly imprinted the scene before her, and she began to think hard about how to escape.

The idea of ​​bringing Afro up to the center of the hexagram formation is unrealistic.

Now both of them are exhausted and can no longer fight with the puppets.

Grace bowed her head in tight contemplation.

If a dagger were to pierce his heart, and Afro was not by his side, would he be able to survive the moment the illusion was lifted?

This is an unknown, so even if I die, I want to die by Afulo's side!

But that's not enough!!

Grace gritted her teeth and pounded her head hard, forcing her brain to work at a higher speed.

Then you can only start with the illusion crystal core and the puppet!

The characteristic of the puppet is that it runs very slowly, otherwise it wouldn't have had such an effort to chase after the two exhausted girls.

They seem to use their glass-like eyes to observe the field of vision, and they also have a certain degree of hearing.

But it's not enough! Hurry up! Think a little more!! Faster!

Grace continued to recall with all her might, biting her lower lip tightly, and it felt as if a heavy mountain was pressing down on her brow.

In this anxious thinking, she, who was born with a keen sense of smell, finally found the key to the matter.

Got it!

The girl's brows suddenly relaxed, and a crazy light emanated from her eyes.

While running away just now, she rested her head on Afro's shoulder, giving her some time to carefully observe the puppet chasing her.

Afro used magic bullets to shatter mirrors at a short distance.

When the flying debris approaches the puppet, they will all be bounced away by the puppet's steel knife at an extremely fast speed.

As long as the puppet gets close, within a distance of one meter, it will use its steel knife arm that can cut through iron like mud.

Of course there are exceptions, such as broken lenses flying overhead and in blind spots of vision.

They are often ignored by the puppets.

That is to say - puppets are not without flaws.

The material of the illusion crystal core is no different from glass. Now I have the possibility to shatter the illusion crystal core from above!

The best option now is to jump down from the top of your head and then dodge the puppet's steel knife, hitting it with one blow.

The rest is up to fate.

Grace took a deep breath rationally, raised her eyes, and confirmed the floor height again with an extremely calm gaze.

Each floor is about two and a half meters high, and the height between the fourth and fifth floors is about twelve meters.

As for how to determine the location of the puppet? The task reward [Patrol Positioning] given by the system has already given the answer.

Patrol positioning is more of a bond than a reward, and can show the distance between two people very accurately.

Since the puppets' goal is to kill the people in the illusion, they will definitely go after Afro.

Afro doesn't have much physical strength and can't run too far.

You can confirm the position of the doll as much as possible through the coordinate points.

The fourth floor is too high, and we have to go to the second or third floor at least to confirm it.

Grace had quickly mapped out the general outline of the plan in her mind.

So, what I have to do now is to execute it, execute it without any error.

The fire in her pupils was burning fiercely. Grace pursed her lips and smashed a mirror cleanly with her blue knee.

She used the sharpest piece to cut the ribbon wrapped around her hand and held it in her palm as a glass cutter instead of a dagger.

At that time, she would use the Holy Flame Technique and the glass knife to pierce into the core of the illusion to ensure that nothing would go wrong.

The pain from the broken ankle was still there, and Grace endured the pain and jumped from the gap in the stairs to the next level.

In order to reduce the impact, he landed on the ground with both feet. His fractured left foot felt as if thousands of nails were embedded in it and it was being ruthlessly smashed by a hammer.

The pain is heart-wrenching.

Grace's delicate facial features were twisted into a ball, her pale face lost all color, and cold sweat oozed out from her forehead.

Without any hesitation, she gasped for breath, forced herself to climb over the crystal railing, and staggered to the platform between the second and third floors with the last bit of her body's strength.

But there is not much time left, we have to be faster!

……

Afro had never imagined that death was so close to him.

At this moment, the metal steel shows its ruthlessness as a tool.

I don't have much magic power left now. No, it should be said that I have no way to resist the two puppets at all.

Physical strength is also exhausted after running for a long time.

Even if you land safely on the ground, you won't have much energy to run.

After the four legs of steel landed on the ground, they were filled with endless energy.

Clicking, clicking, the crazy puppets on the left and right came towards him like the god of death holding a sickle.
