The sea breeze blew across the harbor, bringing with it the pervasive smell of blood.
Laux gently swung the holy sword to clean off the blood, then put it back into the scabbard.
Maybe she should be spared.
Laux looked at his trembling right hand and could feel a consciousness slowly awakening in his body, shouting and roaring hysterically in his mind, trying to regain control of his body.
But it's useless.
Laux clenched his hands tightly and forced himself to stop shaking:
“You’re still very young.
Feel the pain of killing a loved one with your own hands.
I have experienced this kind of thing countless times in the past.
Even if I don't do this, with your strength, when you really face the Demon King, you will watch your companions being killed by the Demon King and be helpless.
What are you fighting for
For the so-called hero in your mind
Oh, that's really ridiculous.
Is it worth sacrificing your own life and that of your companions for such a lie
Answer me a little bit, what do you know about the past
You know nothing, right? And you don't have the slightest desire to find out.
Just like other heroes in the past.
People like you will probably forget their original intentions very quickly.
I'll let you take a good look!
What kind of future should this world be heading towards
If you can understand the way the world should be moving forward, it's not a bad idea to let her come back.
you do not believe
It's up to you. I'll just tell you that my name is Laux."
Taking back complete control of his body, the brave Laux placed his hand on his temple and contacted his allies.
A bright purple light emerged from the dark sea. A woman with purple hair and a very exquisite tights emerged from the teleportation array, saluted Laux, and asked:
"What do you want?"
Pointing to the direction where the feathers were scattered, Laux said, "Clean up the place and take her back to keep it temporarily. Then, go to the hotel to see the priest.
If she doesn't move and is still asleep, let her sleep until everything is over. Consider it her reward for all she has done for us."
"I understand." Yongfang Chunlan continued to ask, "Then, what should we do with the woman who fell into the sea?"
Laux said indifferently: "Such a scheming woman is worthless, just feed her like that!"
"clear."
Yongfang Chunlan nodded and was about to start cleaning up when Laux reminded her:
"Don't forget to clean up any traces of potions nearby.
When you have finished everything, we will set sail.
Next, I need your strength."
"us?"
Yongfang Chunlan's eyes suddenly lit up. She understood what Laux meant and immediately became more motivated.
Feeling the sea breeze, Laux once again looked out at the distant sea.
For him, there is still a long way to go before the end.
Laux and his gang were not the only ones who knew what happened on the coastline.
The nine-life cat demon who records the world knows it, the giant dragon who uses the power of heritage to watch over the entire world knows it, and Thor Rot who is staying on the cliff also knows it.
After Yang Yu and the others left, Thor Rot connected his magic power to the network in the sky.
The information Yang Yu showed him also included information about the hero.
The hero is most likely also connected to the evil dragon and the devil.
Since they knew that the hero might be related to them, by keeping him under surveillance, they might be able to discover the evil dragon earlier than Yang Yu and the others.
The giant dragon on Panlong Peak is probably watching the hero all the time. If we can find the gathering point of monitoring magic power, we may be able to find the hero.
With the mentality of giving it a try, Thor Rot connected to the dragons' network without any pressure.
Thor Rot adopted a very clever method. He did not search aimlessly throughout the world. Instead, he went directly to Panlong Peak, intercepted countless magic signals, analyzed them, and selected the images that were most likely to be the actions of the hero for observation.
Then, Thor Rot saw the scene of the brave man charging into the demon harbor, and also saw the scene of the brave man killing his companions.
Without thinking too much, Sol Roth contacted Yang Yu directly and told him everything that happened:
".The current hero appeared in a certain harbor, and no trace of evil dragons or demons has been seen yet."
Yang Yu and his group only knew the general direction of the brave group, but did not know their specific location now.
Originally, Yang Yu wanted to capture a few demons on the road to find out the situation, but now that Thor Rot had contacted them, they were spared this tedious step.
Yang Yu quickly asked the heroes about their current location: “They are probably around the harbor and want to take a boat to the Demon King’s Castle to fight the Demon King to the death.
He has sufficient fighting power.
The Demon King's Castle is far away from the land, so even if something happens, no one would think that he is in league with the evil dragon and the devil.
Speaking of which, is the current hero still acting with his companions
Or has he completely abandoned his partners and sent them to work elsewhere?"
After pondering for a moment, Sol Rot decided to tell Yang Yu the truth and sent the slightly blurry picture to Yang Yu and the others.
In an instant, Yang Yu and the others were completely stunned.
Yang Yu no longer had to doubt that Vokris's body had been taken over by the brave Laux.
The facts were right before their eyes.
The Walkris that Yang Yu knew, no matter how arrogant or disappointing he was, was a person who cared deeply for his teammates.
The person in the picture was obviously no longer him.
The only thing to be thankful for is that Walkris's will seems not to have died yet.
Even though he couldn't hear any sound, Yang Yu could still tell from some details on the screen that Walkris was trying to resist.
But the strength of resistance is very weak.
In games or animations, there are often plots where the protagonist relies on his powerful consciousness to force out the monster that has invaded his body.
But even if his beloved died in front of him, Walkris had no way to control his own body.
Perhaps, this is because Laux has a stronger will than Vokris.
Speaking of strong will, Yang Yu remembered one thing
That happened during the war between the Rose Empire and the Wansheng Kingdom, and he encountered a golden ape-like creature that was hunting them.
It is difficult to explain the clash of consciousness.
If possible, Yang Yu didn't want to engage in any battle of wills with Laux.
He hopes to decide the outcome of this battle in his own way.
Gao Yuanyi, who was standing beside Yang Yu, also noticed the same thing as Yang Yu, but his ideas were completely different from Yang Yu's. If it came to a competition of willpower, Gao Yuanyi, who had always been the runner-up, would not give in easily!
