Chapter 1123: Mantis catching cicadas
"Okay, looks like we can talk now."
You Yu stood in front of the vampire daughter, the eldest girl knelt on the ground with a pale face, her flat chest heaving violently due to gasping for unknown reasons.
She lowered her head, her silver hair was falling, and she looked like she was obediently conceding defeat and letting others go, making You Yu feel like that kind of heinous villain for a while.
The sand sculptures in the back obviously also felt this sense of sight. A group of people chatted and discussed, and felt that the development of this plot was a bit similar to some less serious animations in the island country-the kingdom was captured, and the noble princess sacrificed herself for the safety of the people...
Sand sculptures, not only do you see a lot of messy things, but also like to think wildly.
"I know you may not believe it now...but we really have no ill will towards your country." You Yu said helplessly, "We really just passed by."
The vampire daughter raised her head, her eyes shining like rubies.
"You... do you want to go to Bawang City?"
"Yes." You Yu nodded, "We just want to borrow your portal."
The vampire daughter was silent for a while, then continued: "I can't allow unauthorized people to pass through that door, that's me—and our country's duty."
"You have done your best to perform your duties." You Yu said, "So let's just say it now, where is the door?"
The vampire daughter didn't answer. Her beautiful eyes dimmed, and she stared absently at the dark sky outside the castle.
"Actually, I'm a little tired of all this," she said softly. "The endless battle, the people who keep dying... I just want this to stop."
"That's why you want Bawang to come back?" You Yu asked.
"Yes." Qianjin lowered her head gently, "because this is... the only way to stop the war. Only that master can make everyone surrender willingly, all dimensions will obey orders, all The world will return to peace.
I just...just don't want to fight anymore..."
You Yu looked at the daughter whose head was gradually lowered, and couldn't help but smile.
"Miss, you seem to have misunderstood something."
"Huh?" Qianjin raised her head.
"We never said that we went to Bawang City to overthrow that person." You Yu smiled, "We just went to reason with him.
We all want Bawang to stay in his place, I just want him to be better than he is now...probably stronger than he is now.
But no matter what, your wish will come true. The Twelve Dimension will maintain unity under the absolute power of the Overlord, there will be no more wars, and there will be no need for someone to die for the land. "
The vampire daughter's face was full of suspicion, and her pale little face was clearly written—
——Don’t lie to me if I read less, is it really that simple?
Do you want to reason with the overlord? Do you think he looks like a reasonable person?
But just when the vampire daughter was extremely suspicious of this, a figure—or, to be more precise, not a person at all—appeared beside You Yu.
"Yuber?" Qianjin showed a surprised expression, "Are you with them?"
"The situation is a little more complicated." Yubel crossed his arms, "I have always had a good impression of you among my colleagues in the past, Miss.
You should know, you can trust me on this.
Do you really think that I will betray that lord? "
Vampire daughter: "..."
really. Although she didn't fully understand the story of Bawang and Yubel, she also knew that there was an extraordinary past between them.
Yubel's loyalty and the overlord's high regard for her have long been seen by everyone.
If there is anyone in Bawang City who is the least likely to betray, that person must be Yubel.
The vampire daughter was silent for a moment, and seemed to be in a tangle.
After a while, she asked again: "You...really not to resist the overlord's rule?"
"Of course." Yubel smiled, "You know that I will always be loyal to that person, but the situation is a bit special now.
You know, the current overlord is not quite the same as he was in the past. I'm just using the power of these people to try to make the person on the throne better. "
"..."
Seeing that Qianjin seemed to be undecided, You Yu continued: "Also, please remind me. Although your loyalty to the king is admirable, Miss, you don't actually have many choices.
You lost to me, remember?
A victory or defeat, a price. Your price has not been paid yet? "
The vampire daughter sighed softly.
She gently raised her scallion-white little hand and pointed to a certain direction behind the city wall.
"Get out of here and follow the main road," she said. "Go all the way to the center of the city, where the door you're looking for is there."
After a pause, she added: "But you should know that even if you pass there, you don't go directly to Bawang City.
Our dimension is not the last line of defense. To reach Bawang City, you still have another dimension to pass through, which is the closest and last line of defense to Bawang City. "
"Dark Realm." Yubel nodded, "Thank you for reminding me, but I didn't forget."
"Dark Realm?" You Yu raised his eyebrows.
"That's right." Yubel said, "Dark Realm is the closest dimension to Overlord City, where all fallen creatures from the Dark Realm rule.
It was a world shrouded in darkness all year round. Demons enslaved and ruled over the human beings living in that plane. It was a dimension where despair ran rampant and there was no dawn. "
"But that dimension also has the last door to Bawang City."
The vampire daughter stood up staggeringly, took a deep breath, and showed a serious expression.
"I'm going with you," she said.
Yubel was a little surprised: "Then your country...?"
"I let you through this door, and I have to confirm with my own eyes whether what you are saying is true."
The vampire daughter paused for a while, then looked out the window again, looking at the country she had devoted everything to, but was also betrayed here,
"Besides, I'm tired," she said softly, "if it's true, as you say, that there will be no more wars from now on, then it's almost time for me to leave this position.
It's time to entrust it all to someone else. "
Then she smiled lightly and looked at You Yu half-jokingly.
"And didn't you say it I still owe you a price that I haven't paid." She smiled and said, "If I don't follow you, I can't pay it, right?"
"Okay." You Yu shrugged, "But you have to be mentally prepared, it won't be as easy as an outing."
......
You Yu and his party left the castle and walked towards the portal leading to the next dimension in the city center. A dark figure stood in the shadow not far away, squinting at that direction.
He walked slowly, ready to follow.
But a lazy voice sounded behind him: "You are really haunted."
The shadow stopped, looked at the man who appeared behind him without knowing it, leaning against the wall, and couldn't help frowning.
"I should have said this right... Duel King."
