Chapter 928: Unpredictable Consequences
Elise accepted Xia's proposal.
She accepted Xia's proposal not because she wanted to, but because she had to.
Because judging from the current situation, if Xia is not powerless, then her operation to rescue the edge of Long Night is very likely, and even will definitely fail.
Such a situation must be something she did not want to see.
After all, for Elise, the only thing she wants to do now is to save the Edge Night.
Returning to the soul of the long night on the edge was her only goal, because this excessive freedom now made her feel empty and panicked.
Everyone lives in the world like a kite, and the tail of the kite drags a long line that connects to the hands of the people to whom it is bound. Maybe one day, you will go far, you will go to new places, you will see new people and things, but that line will always remain behind you, maintaining that thin but strong line.
The reason why it is said to be thin is because you hardly think about it in your daily life.
And the reason why it is said to be strong is because no matter what important things happen to you, it will not be easily cut off.
There is such a line between Elise and the Edge Night, and it has been there since the two of them met.
It's just that after the long night at the edge was taken captive, the line was temporarily broken.
So what Elise wants to do, and is doing, is to reconnect the lines.
β¦β¦
Staring at the deep black cave not far away, Oribe Rie's heart was half unwilling, half happy.
He was unwilling because Xia was unable to save the players who were supposed to be his prey in front of him.
And he was glad that it was because Xia was unable to leave with those players.
After all, he himself was self-aware, and he knew that if he and Xia were unable to match, then he would have no chance of winning. So Xia's weak departure gave him a chance to live.
"Well, now that they're all gone, I'll go ahead with my mission."
As he spoke, Oribe Rio shook the flask at his waist and jumped down towards the deep black hole in front of him.
β¦β¦
'Ahhhhh β
Xia couldn't stand at the front of the giant sword, his heart was troubled, and the skirt of his robe was flying.
Of course she couldn't let go of him on that long night, after all, the bond between the two of them was too deep, and there was a master-slave relationship...... Hey, Xia is weak, you really lost, and you lost thoroughly. β
While thinking like this, Xia shook his head weakly.
If only I didn't know that Elise was the Moonlight Maiden. He used to think so.
But who can he blame? Do you want to blame Kotojuro for letting him see the real scene of this world at that time? What are you kidding, that's his top boss, or his biggest brother in this game!
The most important thing is that Kotojuro gave him a salary increase.
But the order from the Japanese branch is also the company's order. Natsu's weak eyes stared straight ahead, and his mind jumped to another level.
'If I get in the way of that Oribe Rie...... Well...... I don't know if it's the task of the person whose real name is the one, will I receive a warning from the company or the system? As he thought, Kotojuro glanced back at Elise, who was standing firmly behind him on the hilt of the sword, and then continued, "Although his position and authority are not as high as mine, after all, this is not a matter of righteous words, so it may not be good." β
"Hey." At that moment, Elise, who was standing on the hilt of the sword, suddenly spoke the first words since she had stood on the greatsword.
"Call me?" Xia Fufu immediately turned around and pointed to his cheek.
Obviously, Elise didn't intend to call Xia Fuli by his name.
Although she and Xia Wuli are already old acquaintances in theory, and they saved their lives this time, Elise still doesn't have much affection for this person who has the title of GM and haunts all day long.
"What if we bump into Rio Oribe in the process of rescuing Long Night, and fight him?" Elise's question just hit Xia's weak thinking before.
"I'm thinking about this too......" Xia couldn't look at Elise, she could only shake her head slightly, and said honestly.
"I mean." Elise snapped her fingers, "Aren't we the same as that Oribe Rio now?" Wouldn't it be nice for us to kill the Abyssal Demons and destroy this place, while we rescue the hostages held by the Abyss Demons? β
"If only that were the case." Xia sighed weakly.
"What do you mean?"
"I don't think this action is as simple as you say." Xia was unable to say the current situation directly, "First of all, Oribe Rio may not allow us to appear here, so there will inevitably be another war between us, and even if it is negotiated, what if those abyss demons use the edge of the long night as a bargaining chip?" β
"Then kill it with the edge of the long night." Elise said directly without hesitation.
βpardonβ¦β¦οΌβ
"Speak human words!"
"Trouble again?"
"I'll let you speak human words!"
"No, I mean, the foreign phrase I just said means 'trouble again.'" Xia replied while wiping his sweat for the immortal conversation just now.
"Edge Long Night is a player, and he can be resurrected after death, as long as he can be freed from the control of those demons, what if you kill him?" Elise looked at Xia and said, "It's not like we've never done something like this before. β
"But." Xia Fuli smiled bitterly and said, "Aren't you worried about what unpredictable situations will happen after he dies under this special circumstance?" β
"Unpredictable...... mean?"
"The players who died because the respawn point was destroyed haven't come back yet, right?" Xia said weakly.
"Like...... That's true. When Elise heard this, she immediately frowned.
Indeed, as long as those who died in the fog of those dead natures, they never returned, including the autumn frost moon, who died in the beginning.
"And I don't think the powers exerted by those demons will simply disappear because of the death of a single party, I'm worried about ......"
"...... you're worried about?"
"I'm afraid that if Oribe Rio simply kills those abyss demons in order to complete the mission, it will trigger even more serious consequences."
Xia was powerless, his brows tightened, and the giant sword galloped.
