Chapter 222: Undefeatable Fate
In the following days, all the remaining "knife-wielding persons" were taken in for psychiatric evaluations, and the result was... only Wu Xuan and Huang Quan's mental states passed.
Under this circumstance, the "Ming" was also returned to Huang Quan, which meant that the number of people holding the knife seriously... changed from one to two.
Wu Xuan and Huang Quan had only one mission, which was to eliminate these people before they caused huge casualties.
In other words... he and Huang Quan became executioners.
It is worth mentioning that after Wu Xuan killed "Lan" and "Shuang", his main quest was updated again.
[Main Quest (5/7) "Kill Again"]
[Task Description: Everything has already happened, tragedy is inevitable, all you can do... is move forward]
[Quest Reward: "Flame of Wrath"]
[Mission Penalty: Simulation Ends]
["Flames of Rage": Having killed your companions many times with your own hands, you have accumulated a lot of resentment in your heart. You didn't have to endure this kind of pain, but worse than this... is deception and betrayal.]
As time went by, his former companions gradually turned into ghosts, which turned Wu Xuan, who originally had some emotional fluctuations, into a cold-blooded butcher.
——It was as if he had been killing fish in RT-Mart for ten years.
Today, only three people remain from the original team of twelve knife-wielding men.
"Fierce", "Ming", "Ming".
This actually surprised both Wu Xuan and Huang Quan.
To be honest, they originally thought that Elle, a priestess whose own abilities were related to life and death, would be the first to collapse because of the successive deaths of her companions.
But she didn't.
She stayed until the end.
However, her mental state was not good in the eyes of Huang Quan and Wu Xuan.
Perhaps because there were only three people holding knives left, those people gradually tightened their control over them and monitored their mental states more and more frequently.
After all, they have all witnessed the fighting power of Wu Xuan and Huang Quan. If they also turned into ghosts... I'm afraid the entire Izumo will be torn in half.
Repeated mental tests can allow them to detect Wu Xuan and Huang Quan's problems in advance, and then quickly draw conclusions and solve them.
And today... Miss Elle accidentally heard... the most ridiculous statement in the world while undergoing an examination.
As usual, she wandered aimlessly in the research institute where the "Life" sword was stored, waiting for her own evaluation report.
But she was the same as always and the atmosphere in the lab was not the same as always...nor was she the same as always.
The researchers in the laboratory were running around in a hurry. In the past, someone would say hello to Elle and gently rub the little girl's head.
But this time no one cared about Elule's existence. They seemed to be running for something that could decide their life or death.
Elure looked at the people rushing in the corridor and sighed slightly.
To be honest, she didn't quite understand what these people were doing.
"The current situation... aren't we the biggest threat?" Elul looked out the window of the base thoughtfully, not quite understanding for a moment.
But what does this have to do with her? She is now just an ordinary witch who is immortal in the physical sense but does not have any extraordinary power.
Thinking of this, she sighed slightly. For her, even if these staff members encountered a huge problem and a meteorite would hit their heads in the next second, she would not be able to do any effective rescue.
Elle turned her eyes away from the window and continued to walk silently against the flow of people.
Perhaps it was because her previous thinking made her consciousness a little scattered. When she raised her head again, she didn't know where she was.
Elle looked around in confusion and whispered, "Where... is this?"
"Then again, weren't so many staff members busy just now? Where are the people here?"
She shook her head gently. Now she could only pray that her aimless walking would lead her out by accident.
Ai Luer did what she said, and she couldn't help but start wandering around here
——Since I walked in unconsciously, I can definitely walk out unconsciously!
Elle firmly believed this.
However, before she could take a few steps, the sound of conversation came from the slightly thick metal wall of the laboratory.
"Yes, I understand. Research on the remaining ten "World-Protecting Swords" is already underway." A somewhat timid voice came out.
"But you haven't produced any results yet!"
"Sir, you can't say that. The most important thing now is not us, but whether the two swords "Lie" and "Ming" can be integrated with the remaining five swords!"
The voice that had been somewhat timid at first now spoke with obvious anxiety.
Hearing this, the other party he was talking to was silent for a long time, and then sighed softly.
"You have to know that the influence of the Black Sun is getting deeper and deeper. Even with our cooperation with Takama-ga-hara, we have not been able to cultivate a sword that can stop this disaster..."
"Izumo shouldn't have perished like this..."
"You have to understand that people in the city are transforming into ghosts all the time, but this transformation can be suppressed by us."
"Until one day, we need to use those two knife-wielding men to suppress everything. What should we do?!"
Hearing this, the somewhat decadent researcher fell silent, and after a while he answered:
"Your Excellency, this is a scam, a complete scam."
"But if there hadn't been this scam, Izumo wouldn't even have the power to resist!!!"
"That's a Star God! Your Excellency! That's a Star God!! How on earth are we supposed to resist a Star God with our mortal powers?!"
"Without the protection of the pioneering power, we can't even leave this galaxy. The only celestial body here is Izumo! Sir, do you understand?!"
The researcher, who had been somewhat depressed, roared at this moment, seemingly not understanding what the politician in front of him had done.
"Sir! Wake up! We can try, but we need time! No one wants to see their hometown destroyed!"
"This is a war that cannot be won, but we need more time to explore this possibility!"
"Even if we let the remaining two sword-wielders carry the entire Izumo, it will take time to forge those two swords! My students are already exhausted, what else do you want?!"
Hearing this, Elle subconsciously covered her mouth and ran away quickly.
"Star God... God... sacrifice? I... I have to tell Brother Wu Xuan and the others right away!"
