Wrong, my skills refresh every week

Adi also reacted and held the prop in her arms, but she couldn't pull the trigger..., in the moment of emotional struggle, the girl's hand grasped her chest...

"God, please let me see my father and mother again!" Her eyes suddenly became empty...

The next second—

A dark shadow flashed by...

boom----

Chapter 172 Adi: I'm not dead yet

"Ah-Di--"

Liu screamed in fear and grief.

The sounds in my ears fell silent.

In the crack of frozen time, Adi's eyes widened, his hands hidden in the prop bag froze, and he subconsciously stretched out his hand.

Explosion, impact, and extreme heat.

"BOOM————" The roar of evil broke the still time.

Firelight reflected on Adi's face, and her hair was blown wildly by the impact. She turned around subconsciously and pressed the cold body of the little girl in her arms to the ground.

The next moment, the girl raised her head with empty eyes, let out an unbelievable roar, and struggled violently, but was unable to push away the girl who was pressing her down.

The scorching flames burned Adi's back, and crackling hot oil dripped from the stone pillars.

Adi opened his eyes wide, completely unable to comprehend what had just happened.

It was not until his vision was painted white by the flash of fire and his hearing, which had been taken away by the piercing roar, was revived that Ryu looked back at the center of the explosion in a daze.

“You’re lying… You obviously didn’t know… Why? You’re lying! Adi—Adi?—” Liu raised his head and shot up like a ball, running towards the place where his friend had been.

At that location, there was only a pool of turbid blood and flesh residue.

"Don't go over there!" Leila hugged the elf from behind.

“Adi—Adi—Adi!!”

Valetta covered her face with her hands, the corners of her mouth curled up wildly: "Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha - Finn, did you see it? This is the feast I prepared for you! Hahahahaha. Five years..., the bomb that has been buried for five years has finally exploded!"

however……

"Cough cough cough, Li Ang? Don't shout so tragically, I'm not dead yet..." From the abandoned debris in the distance, Adi crawled out from inside, spewing black smoke.

He was holding an unconscious little girl in his arms.

"Ka-"

Valetta's hearty laughter came to an abrupt halt, and a crazy expression froze on her face.

Without even waiting for Valetta to react, Shakti, who was stunned for a moment and forced to suppress the sadness of his sister's death, had no time to celebrate his sister's resurrection before he sounded the clarion call for a counterattack.

"Fire!!!!"

At the moment of explosion, the adventurers had already taken out their specially made cylindrical fireworks and threw the flying bamboo tubes towards the flames and magic burning around them.

stab-

The kinetic energy generated by the gunpowder pushed hundreds of bamboo tubes to rotate around the workshop, and the blooming sparks flooded the entire warehouse in an instant.

In the pale world, violent roars erupted around the room.

The secret faction cadres, who had not yet had time to pull the fuse, were blown to pieces by their teammates nearby.

The roar and panic, coupled with the brilliant flames, blinded the enemy's vision, and they fled in all directions, completely unaware of where they were moving to.

The adventurers who had made preparations in advance moved behind the shelter of the building. After a series of shocking explosions, blood, flesh and broken bones splattered all over the walls of the building.

"Ugh - cough cough cough -" Valetta crawled out from under the rubble of the collapsed pillar and spat out a mouthful of blood. She stared at the tragic battlefield in front of her with an expression of disbelief.

His face was filled with dullness...

"what happened?"

The adventurers, who were clearly cornered, had taken out strange items specifically designed for them! The number was so astonishing!

Finn knows our plan!

Is there a spy? Who leaked the information?

The plan to kill Finn was made by the three of them together, and even the Joker didn't know about it. Are they still foolishly sending out the "challenge" and waiting for Finn to fight?

Can……

Why is it here?

Olivas, that's impossible, that idiot just doesn't have that IQ?

No face? He doesn't have to! It will only help his master's plans!

Valetta had a dazed look on her face, followed by astonishment, disbelief, anger... and finally a silly smile.

Huh? The traitor turned out to be me? I almost got myself killed? Stop kidding!

"Hahahaha - cough cough cough, cough cough." Valetta laughed foolishly in collapse, dragging his bloody right leg and crawling out from around the collapsed wall in a panic.

……

On the other side, the adventurers who had crawled out from the collapsed and shattered iron baskets and piles of debris cheered loudly when they saw the battle in front of them.

"It worked! We succeeded!"

Although there were some casualties, more than a thousand members of the dark faction were eliminated at one time.

Shakti looked for Valetta among the nearby corpses, but when she saw the bloodstains extending to the hole in the wall, she sighed with regret: "Did she run away?"

As soon as she regained her sight, Liu rushed to where Adi was. She buried her head in Adi's arms and cried loudly.

"Adi—Wow, Adi!"

"Okay, okay, Liang, I'm fine, right?"

Kaguya came up and looked at the little girl being controlled by other members, and complained again: "Don't have useless sympathy. It will only hurt yourself!"

Adi smiled bitterly: "I really can't bear it, she is still so young..."

"To have sympathy for a villain is pure naivety!" Kaguya said this, but she was getting more and more annoyed. If it were her, would she hesitate when facing a child like that?

She herself couldn't give an answer.

"Hey! What's going on?" Kaguya ruffled her hair, "You fool, shouldn't you be dead?"

Adi didn't pay attention to Kaguya's venomous snake and glanced at the ring in his hand: "It seems to have protected me. But..."

Adi glanced at the little girl, pushed away the sobbing Liu, and slowly stood up.

She came to one side of the explosion center, where a member of the dark faction was lying, his body burnt, with one arm and a bandage on his face.

He opened his eyes weakly, and a jewel necklace emitting emerald light on his chest shattered.

Adi took out the elixir from his body and poured it on the man.

"This……"

"He saved me..." Adi's eyes showed compassion: "At the moment of the explosion, the man snatched the black robe and the bomb from the girl and pushed her into my arms."

Kaguya was shocked and said, "How is this possible? The secret faction actually..."

Ryuu seemed to recall her conversation with Ciel, and she took a deep breath:

"A person's goodness or evil will change depending on their stance. The dark faction also has its own "ideals", and if there is no external interference, it will most likely be beautiful."

Leila and Alyse, who had gathered around, also stared at the girl in surprise: "Liang, when did you come to this realization?"

Liu did not answer. She was eager to know the answer now: "Can you tell me why you did this? This is a betrayal to your comrades."

The man lying on the ground laughed bitterly, his empty eyes looking at the ceiling: "Ah..., I just misjudged it."

"When I saw her rushing forward in fear, I was distracted and mistook her for that child... Haha, I'm a loser, I can't save her, I can't save her! But I can save the child in front of me..."

The man burst into tears and wailed while holding his head. “Ah… Ahhhhh! God! Please don’t deprive me of the chance to see everyone again in the next life! I didn’t mean to… I didn’t mean to! I was really wrong! I was wrong… It’s not okay. I’m sorry…”

"..." Liu suddenly said.

The man's words were jumbled, but everyone understood.

As a believer in the god of death, he is undoubtedly a madman, but as a father, he is undoubtedly a hero.

After calming down, Ryu seemed to have a deep understanding of the relationship between "ideals" and "justice" that Ciel mentioned.

She became calmer.

Isn't what Adi faced also a "trolley" problem? Then is this ending an outcome other than the two choices?

As a heroic father, he should have died, but he still survived. Which ending is this?

Liu's eyes fell on the broken jewelry on his father's chest, and the ring in Adi's hand...

"Adi, what is this ring?"

Chapter 173 Selecting a few bosses who are not afraid of death

"It was given to me by Jester at that time... I exchanged it with my sister." Adi stuck out his tongue and complained: "My sister scolded me at that time, saying that it was a specially customized first-level adventurer weapon. It was super expensive."

Alixie put her hands on her hips and said, "Now it seems like a really good deal!"

"jester..." Liu recalled the appearance of the hero in his memory.

But... there is only a vague outline in my memory.

His stories and actions have all disappeared from memory. Only the flash of lightning and the flames that destroyed the villain remain.

Just as everyone was caught between memories and doubts, Boom————

Huge roars sounded one after another in the city.

It was like a signal. When the trigger was pulled in the warehouse here, the dark faction launched explosions simultaneously throughout the city.

Everyone rushed out of the warehouse.

The night sky of the city exploded with brilliant fireworks, the flames and roars ignited the buildings and dyed the city red.

"Boom, boom, boom, boom -"

A series of horrific explosions sounded in every corner of the city, followed by rising clouds of colorful flower rain.

"What a nice view--"

“It’s also ugly…”

The blooming of every firework heralds the end of at least one life.

Residents were running in all directions on the streets, and people were buried by collapsed buildings...

In order to deceive Valletta, Finn did not evacuate the people in advance. They were naturally abandoned and countless people fell in the sea of ​​fire.

"It's true that the brave hero is always like this." Leila grinned with mixed feelings.

"Stop making sarcastic remarks and go to the rescue!"

Alisha was the first to go out, but halfway through, she suddenly stopped: "Oh no, I have a very bad feeling, Leila, Kaguya, you go to the rescue, I will go find Lady Astraea!"

Shakti stared at the receding crimson figure without hesitation. Before deciding on the plan, she had already arranged for some military police to prepare, and they were already on their way.

……

West Street Clock Tower.

The wounded Valetta stood on the tall bell tower, her eyes fixed on the city where thick smoke and fireworks were rising.

I seemed to hear the screams of countless comrades.

"Finn... and this "fireworks"! Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!"

All her plans turned to ashes before her eyes. She sat on the ground in embarrassment, and then she laughed: "However, although my plan failed, we haven't lost yet--"

"Look, such a beautiful sight, such pleasant screams. Those believers are just icing on the cake, just like these fireworks..."

Valetta declared as if she was the one who stood up for herself, "Adventurers, struggle, beg for mercy! In the face of absolute strength! Conspiracies and tricks are completely meaningless! Hahahahaha——"

She laughed strangely along with the evil gods.
