But...if the thought that just flashed through her mind was true, if the breakup three years ago was not from Ansher's heart, then was she really qualified to expect Ansher to save her?
In other words, why did she believe that Anser would save her? Was it because of her value, because Anser was still planning to tame her and would not let her die, or...
Or were they the words that Anser had repeatedly whispered in her ears during last night's frenzy?
"Because I am the only person in this world who can resonate with you."
Ming Fuluo had to admit that she had trembled several times because of this sentence. She had to admit that she would vent the negative emotions in her heart with such absurd behavior because Ansel was the only person in the world who was most suitable for her.
They clearly had the same ideals and were compatible with each other... If Anser's "betrayal" at that time really had some hidden meaning, if her anger and resentment were all too self-centered, then what had she done in the past three years...
After all, what was lost?
Ming Fuluo didn't know that before the destruction came, she didn't feel fear, but only confusion.
It's like a person who sets his house on fire, determined to move to another place, but when he walks out, he finds that the world is nothing but a vast expanse of ice and snow.
It is so painful to the eyes, and the heart is empty, cold and dazed.
And in this confusion, her salvation... came as it should.
The destructive light did not engulf Ming Furo, because with a loud bang, the puppet's spellcasting was interrupted.
Yes, that person would not die here by himself. I am valuable to him, and he wants to tame me, but...but if, if he doesn't think so, he still regards me as a friend...he said before that he is still my friend -
Everything that Ansher had done before exploded in Yu Mingfuluo's mind at this moment. The confused and chaotic memories and scenes kept surging. When confusion and doubt began, everything could not stop.
Marina Lancemalos, the woman's words were like a delayed bullet. After Ansel's test made Ming Furo realize the strangeness between them, it shattered Ming Furo's thinking that had been solidified for three whole years.
When she began to look back on everything that had happened during this period of time, she could no longer tell whether Anser's kindness was to tame her or he really cared about her, and whether Anser's cruelty was to make her submit or to avenge her betrayal.
...Yes, Anser also said that I was a traitor in his eyes. If, if that was true, then am I——
"I got you, asshole!"
The excited and high-pitched roar shattered Ming Fuluo's thoughts.
Her unfocused eyes slowly came back to life, and instead of the joy of surviving a disaster, her complicated and chaotic thoughts made it impossible for Ming Furo to calm down, so she realized now... the person who saved her was not the one she thought.
——He was not there at all.
The wolf that also shattered the ceiling and fell from the sky twisted its neck, looked at the big piece of iron in front of it, and licked its pink lips.
"It was a close call. I almost couldn't explain to Anser."
"…Shitana Lancemalos."
Conrad's voice came from the iron puppet: "Why are you here?"
"Idiot, of course it's because I'm waiting for you."
Xitana crossed her arms across her chest and said with a puzzled look on her face, "Otherwise I'm here to attend a lecture?"
"So, it was Lord Anser who instructed this?"
The iron puppet was silent for a moment, then let out a desolate and neurotic laugh.
"Hehehe...Hahahahaha! You are so lucky, so lucky, Zeg!"
"Psycho... I'm not here to listen to your madness."
Xitana looked at the iron puppet as if it were a moron, with the fiery look in her eyes not concealed at all: "Anser told me that I could have a good fight today. Although that guy who looked quite powerful ran away, you, um... are also okay."
She twisted her neck, touched her fists together, and a wanton and arrogant smile appeared on her pretty face:
"Come!"
The wolf beast, who still had a long way to go before becoming an emperor, took a step forward. The violent aura that spread and the shock that step brought made people's fear surge.
In Xitana's eyes, the fire of greed for food burned fiercely:
"So you have to... let me have a good meal!"
Bang!
A sharp and piercing explosion sounded in the hall. The girl, who was originally standing in the same place, suddenly broke through the sound barrier at a speed of zero. The power accumulated by the extreme speed was as unstoppable as a raging sea tide. In the blink of an eye, her tall and muscular figure appeared in front of the steel puppet, and her slender and plump thighs had swept up. Even through the black leather trousers, one could see the suddenly bulging and clearly defined muscles on her thighs!
Rumble, rumble, rumble——
The iron puppet, which was four or five meters tall and looked extremely solid and heavy, was actually blown away by a kick from Hitana. The huge body plowed a groove in the ground, raising billowing dust, and was finally "embedded" into the wall at the other end of the hall.
On the other side, Xitana glanced at her entire leg, which had been bent nearly 90 degrees, broken in an extremely creepy way, and almost only held together by muscles. She reached out and pinched the lower end of the broken leg, and pushed it roughly against the broken end. After taking a breath with a hiss, she rubbed her neck and muttered, "It's quite hard. It's not easy to deal with, but..."
After only four or five seconds, she put the broken leg on the ground, kicked it casually, and jumped twice on the spot.
With the dual blessing of her already terrifying physical talent and supreme strength, this seemingly horrific injury was almost healed in just a few seconds.
"If it breaks a few more times, it won't matter!"
The wolf beast laughed wildly and ran forward. The sound of her footsteps on the ground was like thunder. Her whole body was almost roaring, and in an instant she rushed to the iron puppet that was kicked dozens of meters away by her.
Almost at the same time, a blazing and dazzling beam of light shot towards her. The breath predicted by the Head of Wind made Hitana smile with extreme contempt. Although she was running wildly, she seemed to foresee the future and turned her body nimbly and lightly in advance, passing by the beam of light without even her clothes being hit.
The monster that grew by feeding on pure violence has come in front of the puppet again, and its iron fist, which was ready to strike, smashed down with a bang!
The sound of broken bones was drowned out by the loud noise of steel colliding. Shitana's expression changed slightly. The hardness of this puppet was far beyond her expectations. When she punched it, the heavy armor was only dented by a few centimeters, which was insignificant. The entire palm of the hand that punched, including the wrist bones, was basically shattered. Before she could throw a second punch, a dazzling white light burst out from the puppet. Shitana's extremely dangerous intuition made her kick the puppet and then jump dozens of meters away.
The dazzling light shone from the puppet as the center, blinding Shitana, but the perception of the Wind Head would not be affected by this light. Shitana realized almost instantly that this guy... was trying to attack Ming Furo directly.
"You wish, bastard!"
Xitana roared angrily: "Be my opponent!"
Her speed was much faster than the speed at which Conrad's light cannon could condense. Without any hesitation, the girl smashed her other intact fist directly into the head of the steel armor. The huge sound of metal colliding echoed in the hall, and this light cannon was deflected to the ceiling because of Shitana's heavy punch.
"In the way!"
Without even turning her head, Xitana shouted, "Why are you still here? Get out and don't get in my way!"
After she finished speaking, she raised her hand and punched the steel armor that was gradually deformed by her punches. She said with a ferocious look: "Either you beat me and then kill her, or I kill you now... No, there is no third option -"
She clenched her fists into hammer shapes and raised them above her head. The muscles all over her body bulged and tensed, and she instantly transferred the tremendous force along her spine to her arms. The hammer fists, which were wrapped in explosive and terrifying power, suddenly fell down amid Hitana's roar!
"--possible!"
laugh!
The expected roar did not come. Instead, Hitana's forearms and fists were directly cut off a layer of flesh by the instantaneous light cannon, causing the lethality of this attack to instantly drop to the bottom.
"It seems that Lord Anser has used me as a whetstone for Miss Xitana."
Conrad suddenly said, "In that case, I won't struggle anymore. How about we have a fair fight?"
Sitana, whose hands were almost carbonized, was stunned for two seconds, and then nodded vigorously with great joy: "You are quite sensible! Okay!"
She leaped back more than ten meters, first opened her palms, relaxed her muscles, and then suddenly clenched her fists. The muscles that instantly bulged up directly shattered the carbonized matter on her arms, exposing the bloody flesh and even bones. At the same time, the muscle fibers were also reorganizing and repairing her arms at an astonishing speed visible to the naked eye.
"Fair fight, oh... and this thing!"
Sitana walked to the place where the steel armor was kicked away by her, picked up the metal sword that should be used as a medium for casting spells, raised her hand and threw it hard to Conrad in the distance.
By the time this movement was completed, her arms had almost recovered.
"That's more interesting... Come on!"
Xitana looked at Conrad with great excitement, who raised his sword and was ready to fight her like a real warrior: "Keep going!"
This was the battle she expected, the fight she longed for, the valuable...hunt!
In the ruins, Ming Furo looked at Xitana in front of her, the monster that was fighting against a higher level enemy, yet still not losing the upper hand despite being of this strength, and even having some dominance.
Just by looking at that profile, Ming Fuluo Zeger could feel the high spirits.
She had been there before, full of vigor and vitality.
Chapter 9: Miss Doll's Regret (K)
The base of the Ether Institute was raided, and the huge lecture hall turned into a battlefield. One of the nine supreme seats was tricked, and it looked like he was hit in the face.
This is of course one of Conrad's purposes. If he just wanted to take revenge on Babel, he would not have chosen this time to kill Ming Furo.
To some extent, the death of Grand Duke Shenghui is indeed closely related to the Ether Institute. Moreover, they also want to divide up the inheritance of the Shenghui family. As for hatred... maybe Conrad hates the Ether Institute more than he hates the Tower of Babel.
However, no matter what the current situation is, the Ether Institute is unlikely to take action. Just as Conrad said - the leisurely young Hydra obviously uses this battle as a grindstone to sharpen his wolf beasts.
Those who should have stopped the fight watched the messy battlefield in silence.
After all, if we don't count that video, this is the first time that Xitana Lansmalos, the monster who can bear the power of two kinds of contracts, has truly performed on stage.
Conrad, wearing a steel armor of unknown origin, slowly raised his sword, and a pure and blazing light began to flash on the iron blade.
Sitana exhaled expectantly, the image of her prey reflected in her dark red eyes.
Even if it were made of indestructible steel, the wolf would tear it apart and kill it like blood.
"Buzz!"
The light on the long blade surged, and at this moment, Hitana disappeared from the spot in an instant.
Her afterimage was like thunder, and the scream that burst out in the air was a tyrannical roar, a roar of power. Between Shitana and the armor, the floor was crushed by the airflow brought about by the violent speed. Shitana, who was just running wildly and starting to fight seriously, had already swept up the image of a ferocious beast behind her that seemed to want to devour everything!
"Boom!!!"
Like a ferocious wolf swooping down from the hills, Shitana kneed the man in the iron armor in the chest - she only used her fists and feet as weapons, but the impact could only be described as "boom".
Starting from the heavy armor on the chest of the armor and Hitana's knees, the surging air waves exploded instantly, tore the seats and table tops into pieces on the spot, and a huge hole was directly blasted out on the floor.
"...After activating the site reinforcement spell, she can still cause this kind of damage?"
Now, the Ether Court was full of sorcerers who came to watch the show. Everyone was using their own magical powers to watch this battle that was completely against common sense.
"This Miss Lance, bearing the pressure of His Majesty the Emperor, and using a field reinforcement spell that even a blasting spell might not be able to create a hole, with the strength of the third level, she was able to achieve this effect?"
"Damn it... That's why I hate these damn warriors the most. They are good for nothing except fighting and killing people. Are we in a war-torn era now? Why would such a group of people appear?!"
"No warrior is capable of seeing ghosts to such an extent! If there is no site reinforcement, she might be able to tear down this floor directly! This is what happened at the third level, and at the fourth level, is she going to have to twist the dragon's head off with her bare hands?"
Hitana, who can't hear or care about the outside world's comments, now just wants to dismantle the iron lump in front of her into a pile of scrap metal, but the difficulty seems a bit high.
Under this bombardment that was obviously more terrifying than any previous attack, this huge steel-armed weapon was not knocked away. It seemed that Conrad had transferred some of his energy to defense.
In this near-zero-distance situation, firearms, laser cannons, energy bombardment, etc.
Accurate and fast!
Conrad, holding the spellcasting medium, can apparently instantly fire out a light cannon that is several times more lethal than the light beam that just carbonized Athena's arms. The flashing light on the blade shot straight at Athena's back, which actually had a sense of death!
However, the blazing beam of light hit the armored man's chest and disappeared instantly.
"too fast."
Not only ordinary warlocks, but also the fifth-level extraordinary people who were watching the scene were discussing: "This speed can even surpass the casting time... Conrad has no other means, so he will definitely lose."
"But at the moment... Miss Lance may not be able to get any benefit."
His companion said lazily, "That battle armor should have been secretly made by Nasema, most likely based on the design of the mechanical suit. She can't handle the spells attached to it."
“Her ability to heal herself is equally amazing.”
"But if you hit a vital spot, it will definitely kill you."
"After all... he is only at the third level. Under normal circumstances, a third-level transcendent should be wiped out by Conrad in one encounter."
If Ming Fuluo had not attached great importance to her life safety, she would have been the one to be evaporated by Conrad as soon as they met.
"And, as it stands now... she can't penetrate the armor's defenses. Every attack will cause her serious injuries, despite her self-healing abilities... wait, what's going on?"
This iron armor is indeed extremely heavy, but this heaviness also brings him unparalleled defense. Even though the violence unleashed by Sitana can easily trigger the aftermath of the battle by shattering the field reinforcement spell while bearing the suppression of the emperor, it cannot easily penetrate Conrad's armor.
"Ms. Lance, I'm concentrating most of my ether on defense. You can't do anything to me."
Conrad's voice came from the armor: "You probably don't want to fight like this. How about this... you let me kill Zeg, and I'll fight you in the purest way. How about that?"
"Neuropathy."
Shitana punched the dented armor with her fist, and did not dodge the beam of light shot by Conrad, allowing it to pierce her side, while continuously punching again. The continuous roar echoed in the lecture hall, and the sound waves and aftermath ravaged the dilapidated lecture hall. To be honest... the current situation is really boring. Shitana is just simply beating the iron turtle.
Because she concentrated her ether on defense, Shetana was too lazy to even dodge Conrad's light cannon unless the upgraded intuition of the Wind Head gave her a high-risk warning.
"You still want to negotiate terms with me now? Are you still asleep?"
Xitana sneered, "Do you really think I can't open this iron shell? Huh?"
clang!
Amid the continuous roar of collisions, there was suddenly an extremely loud bang, and the entire armor was dented three or four centimeters where it was hit. And because of this brutal blow, Hitana's arm would definitely pay a huge... price?
