The villain's goal is to save the heroine

"Tsk! What is this?!"

Kellogg was forced to move out ten meters. Seeing a twenty-meter-high giant tree descending in front of him, his expression instantly changed from excitement to another extreme. He seemed calmer on the surface, but his eyes were as big as copper bells, and there was infinite anger hidden in them!

He tilted his neck, and the stiff bones suddenly made a crisp crackling sound, and then...

"Damn it! How dare you try to be so clever in front of me...!"

The muscles on Kroger's face trembled uncontrollably. The next second, black wind-attributed magic erupted, and his entire face became eerie and terrifying.

“I’m going to kill you! I’m definitely going to kill you, you damn fertilizer!! Aaaaaaaaaah!!!”

Angry roars, violent magic power, when Kroger's body was blessed by the black wind, Kroger took a step with his left foot, and the entire ground suddenly sank, and his legs pressed down like a slingshot, and then...

"Oh!"

The ground exploded, and Krog rushed towards the giant sacred tree like a cannonball. With a loud "boom", a huge deep pit was stepped on the giant tree trunk just because of Krog's footsteps!

It must be said that the destructive power was indeed great, but the characteristic of the "Sacred Tree" was that it could multiply infinitely. Under Lin's control, the spreading roots immediately grabbed Kellogg, but...

The Kelloggs have vanished.

The remote-controlled branches alone could not keep up with Kellogg's speed. He was like an unstoppable cannonball, carrying two shurikens to chop off the overwhelming proliferating branches one by one, aiming directly at Lynn who was at the highest point!

And Lynn didn't run away.

The severe pain in his chest has caused his breath to decrease. He can only rely on his madness to suppress his dejection. He has also gambled all his magic power. Even if he takes a step back, his condition will only become worse. Therefore, even if he is torn to pieces, he must seize this last chance!

He also suddenly jumped down, but he did not go to fight Kroger alone, but controlled the "sacred tree", making countless branches surround it, like a huge army, swooping down towards Kroger with the force of a mountain pressing down on his head!

It was a collision like a huge wave hitting a reef!

Although Lin En's attack is intimidating, his attack power is actually very limited.

Although Krog is like a small boat on the sea, it is more unbreakable than a rock.

The two sides collided with each other, and suddenly there was a dense "cracking" sound. Countless branches of the "sacred tree" instantly broke into pieces and fell like raindrops!

However, the regenerated branches continue to grow.

Although this didn't cause any substantial damage to Kroger, the attacked still had to chop and block. His upward momentum was blocked, and he could only frantically chop the branches that were closest to him. The circling shurikens provided support from all corners like an air force, supporting the attack from all sides. Even with all the tricks at his disposal, it was difficult to penetrate him, turning the battle into a continuous war of attrition. However...

Lynn's consumption is far greater than Kellogg's.

Those intertwined branches were the embodiment of Lynn's magic, yet Kellogg chopped them apart with a single wave of his hand. Ultimately, it was all he could do to stall for time, or...

"Wind Shattering Slash!"

Treat it as a smokescreen waiting for an opportunity to attack!

When Kellogg swung his sword again and pulled out two shurikens as a defensive measure, taking advantage of this gap, Lin En's figure finally emerged from the "Thousands of Troops". The sharp wind attribute instantly attracted Kellogg's attention, but there was no room for defense at all. He was stabbed in the chest by a sword and fell from the tree trunk like a meteor!

嗏

"Hahahaha-"

Kellogg had already started laughing in the air, because although Lynn's attack made him bleed, he had already firmly grasped it, and it was difficult to advance any further after only two inches!

He had already dropped the long sword with his other hand, and with a sudden pull, two shurikens slashed down towards Lin En at a faster speed. One aimed at his left arm, and the other aimed at his legs, determined to chop him into a human stick!

Obviously, at this moment, Kellogg thought he had already won, and Lynn's final counterattack only caused him slight injuries!

嗏

“Hehehe…!”

A cruel smile appeared on Lynn's face, and then he clenched his teeth!

Yes, he didn't dodge, nor did he offer any defense, allowing the shuriken to cut off his legs, but in return...

"Chi chi chi——"

The other shuriken did not come towards him, but fell from his broken right arm at a very small distance, and then directly pierced into Kellogg's neck!

then…

"boom!"

With an explosion, the two men fell to the ground at the same time. The ground shook like jelly, and then a big pit appeared!

That's right, when Lin En was injured by Kellogg's first sword, he had actually tampered with the shuriken. The silk thread controlling the second shuriken was not only Kellogg's, but also Lin En's!

He gritted his teeth not to endure the pain of a broken leg, but to bite his own silk thread and use his slight influence to forcibly change the trajectory of the shuriken at the last moment!

And with this final impact, Kellogg's shuriken had almost cut off half of his head.

He undoubtedly should have had more means, but unfortunately, when risking one's life, one should go all out, because one careless move...

All bets are lost!

Kellogg is dead.

Do not look down.

Lin En lay dying not far away. Both of his legs were broken, and he only had one arm left. There was a deep sword wound on his chest that could be seen to the bone. His magic power was completely exhausted, and he was not far from death...

The night seemed to have returned to silence.

It seemed like everything was finally over and I could finally breathe a sigh of relief, but then...

“Kill you…! Hahahahahahahahahaha! I told you I’d kill you with my own hands!!!”

Alder, who was already extremely old, crawled out.

He looked like he wouldn't live long, but he excitedly stumbled towards Lin En, like a demon crawling back from hell, determined to devour him completely!

what…

really…

He still doesn't have the ability to fight against fate. Even if he challenges the trajectory of the script like this, he will still die...

So be it…

He had struggled very hard, but fate, it really...

"boom!"

Suddenly, Alder, who had already rushed in front of Linn, was blasted away by a fire bomb!

With his last breath, Lin En looked towards the direction of the fire bomb, but he didn't expect...

It was a person who dragged his bruised and battered body, desperately crawling over...

Renata!

Chapter 498 Reconciliation!

If Lynn was still "Lynn", he would probably be dead.

His condition could no longer be described as a serious injury. Under normal circumstances, the amount of bleeding alone would be enough to make him die, not to mention the violent impact at the end when his magic power was exhausted and he was defenseless. I'm afraid all his internal organs were affected!

The main reason why he is still alive is thanks to the "Sacred Tree".

Just think about the previous owner of the "Sacred Tree", Augustus, a man who was cursed by the Kingdom of Lorraine and turned into half a skeleton. He could still survive for another ten or twenty years in that state. What is he now?

Thanks to the recovery power granted by the "Sacred Tree", there was no chance for Lin En's health bar to return to 0.

at the same time…

It didn't take him long to regain consciousness!

Of course, this recovery is only a weak recovery.

Although he did see Renata before losing consciousness, that was not enough to prove that he was safe. The crazy will brought by fighting desperately and the desire to survive without dying made his nerves still tense. He was not at ease, so even though the "battery" was still insufficient, he still forced it to turn on!

That was probably only a few hours after the battle.

It was still dark outside, around three or four in the morning, and pitch black. However, they were not in the wild. There was hard stone above their heads, and judging from the irregular structure, they were probably in a cave in the mountains.

The warm firelight flickered in the cave, dispelling the chill of the mountain night. It was quiet, and occasionally the crisp sound of burning branches could be heard, presenting a miserable yet warm scene.

But this is happiness enough!

As long as you are alive, there is no greater happiness than this!!

But Lynn still couldn't feel completely at ease.

Being alive now doesn't mean he will be alive in the future...

Don't forget, they were not far from the bandit's lair, and Kellogg was the chief of the garrison in Hammers City. They made such a big noise, it would be hard not to be noticed by someone, right?

Lin En subconsciously tried to get up like a normal person, but as soon as he moved, he felt severe pain all over his body. The sharp pain was like a needle pricking him, and cold sweat broke out on his head!

Yes, there was no arm or thigh at the neat wound. He went from being about 1.8 meters tall to being only about 1 meter tall, only one step away from being a human stick!

but…

"The wound has been treated, and the cut on the chest has been bandaged. Is this... safe?"

Lin En muttered to himself, gritted his teeth, endured the pain, and sat up awkwardly with the help of his only remaining arm.

The process was not smooth, as he had difficulty maintaining his balance due to the loss of his legs and arms, but he had to do it in order to understand the situation in front of him!

Then you can see that he is not the only one beside the campfire...

The four female knights who were captured by the "Royal Knights" were right next to them. They did not have Renata's resistance, nor did they suffer the same treatment as Renata. Now they are still in the afterglow of the "Dream Flower", but they have been affected by the battles of Lin En and others many times. They have more or less injuries on their bodies and are now in a semi-conscious and semi-dreaming state.

At the entrance of the cave, Renata, who was still naked, was keeping watch for them.

She squatted on the ground, hugged her knees, and curled up into a ball, motionless in the cold wind, as if she had turned into a sculpture...

There is no doubt that the person who moved everyone into the cave, lit a fire, and treated his wounds was the arrogant woman beside the eldest princess.

She must have suffered a lot, not to mention being raped by Gold and the bandits. It must have taken a lot of effort to settle everyone in the cave. Her fair body and face were covered with dirty mud, horrible bloodstains, and bruises on many sensitive parts. She looked so pitiful and miserable, how could she still have the pride she had on her face?

At this moment, when Lynn got up from the ground with a grin on his face, Renata also noticed him out of the corner of her eye.

She immediately stood up by holding onto the stone wall, staggered to Lin En, squatted down, supported him and said:

"You'd better not move. If the wound breaks open, it will be difficult for us to treat it. We have no medicine to use."

Her voice was much softer than before, and since her voice was naturally pleasant, it actually made people feel at ease.

Of course, that sense of relief was of no use to Lin En now. He simply asked, "Are they... all dead? If... ahem... if they... escape, we... will be in great danger..."

He never dared to relax, for he was most afraid that excessive joy would lead to sorrow. Having come to this point, how could he be careless?

Renata nodded slightly. "Don't worry, they're all dead. I burned them all, including their bodies... I found a relatively secluded location and eliminated all traces along the way. We're safe for now..."

Renata was able to escape from the "Dream Flower" because, on the one hand, her level was high enough, and on the other hand, she had received enough stimulation to realize that it was not a dream at all, and that she had pulled herself back by her own will.

Therefore, she also knew about the collusion between the bandit group and the Hammers guards, which was the main reason why she did not dare to return to Hammers City for help.

"Is this so..."

When Lin En heard what Renata said, he felt relieved a little.

Although the entrance to the "Divine Tree Space" can be re-anchored, he does not have any magic power on him now.

One of the consequences of missing limbs is that the original magic path is actually destroyed. If you want to restore the "circuit", you must rebuild a new path. This process cannot be done in a short time, and he needs more time.

But Renata suddenly said three words: "I'm sorry."

Lin En was about to turn off the phone again, but suddenly stopped and asked, "What... did you say?"

"I'm sorry, I was prejudiced against you before... I'm sorry, I treated you like that... and yet you were willing to risk your life to save us... I... I'm sorry... I'm sorry... I'm sorry... I'm sorry... I'm sorry... I'm sorry... Woo woo..."

As she kept apologizing, Renata couldn't help crying.

Lynn glanced over and saw that Renata's eyes had already burst. She closed her eyes, tears flowing out like a spring, the corners of her mouth twitching, and her sadness was beyond words.

Obviously, for Renata, this first night in Porto was destined to be an unforgettable nightmare...

Her pride and dignity were completely trampled upon by two rounds of humiliation. Her self-esteem and confidence were battered by the cruel reality. She had fallen from the platform and become an ordinary woman. She would carry with her the humiliation and memories of her life, a dirty, painful, and twisted existence. She...

How can we still be as high and mighty as we were in the past?

Yes, in fact, Renata is not a bad, unforgivable woman. In the game, she can be considered as one of the protagonists.

She may have some personality problems, but that doesn't mean she is a bad person. She just stood on the opposite side of "Lynn", who was supposed to be the villain. If there is any fault, it's not all her fault. It's just that they have different positions.

Lin En thought that Renata had saved his life in the end, and now she was apologizing like this, so how could he still feel any resentment in his heart?

Just said:

"Let's not talk about the past. Do you have a way to help me use my magic now?"
