Returning from the abyss

Lu Ning sat on a stone, and she could see the pier from her position.She arrived here a little late because she had to collect Yu Guiting's body.

What Mayuri Daida said was correct. Yu Guiting and Lian Qingyi themselves may not be a problem, but the forces behind them are indeed unexpected factors that Lu Ning needs to consider after reaching the fifth level.If an emerging power wants to develop, then the new distribution center is definitely a good place, as there will be far fewer constraints there.For Lu Ning, it is unclear whether this change is a blessing or a curse.

When the light beam on the top of the mountain disappeared and the red eyeballs in the sky dispersed, Lu Ning knew that Watanabe Fuchiko had also left the stage.She stared at the battle at the pier. The life-threatening battle between Jiuzumi Heizhen and Han Xizhe could indeed delay the apostle for enough time.Unfortunately, the attack methods of the two of them did not take effect quickly, and even if they tried their best, they could not avoid the final result of death.

When the whistle sounded, a layer of boundary was opened. Lu Ning heard a muffled sound like thunder coming from the sky. She raised her head slightly and saw the bright gap in the sky. The magic flow was destroying the Eight Eyes Island with the release of pure energy. The magical passage between the magic and the origin of magic is as expected by Watanabe Fuchiko. The only imperfection is that the origin of magic has not been completely wiped out. Perhaps in a hundred years, they will accumulate strength and make a comeback.

She saw the boat picking people up docked. At that moment, all the strange phenomena on the Eight Eyes Island began to dissipate. Reconnecting with the outside world made the island included in the world's observation system. The phenomena seen by the few people who do not understand magic are now conforming to the widespread knowledge of the general public. On this basis, even the apostles cannot continue to exist from the toxicity of this knowledge.

The clouds completely dispersed, and the blazing afternoon sun poured its light onto the island. The incarnations of the apostles were shattered inch by inch, leaving only the devastation left behind when they wreaked havoc on the island.Lu Ning stood up and waved to the cruise ship that was leaving the dock.

When all of Howard's tribe left, she was the only one left on the island.Even though the magic on which the family's rules were based has been erased, from the perspective of a distribution center, Lu Ning has indeed met the conditions to take over as the head of the Howard family, so she is the only member of the Howard family left.

If she has not been notified that the "conditions are met" at this time, it means that there are still some subtle judgments that have not been met.That is, on this Eight Eyes Island, there are still people who may be able to obtain Howard's inheritance.

"I've been wondering when you would show up..."

Lu Ning turned around and looked at the shadows in the woods.

"Orlando."

The man called the bodyguard is actually a mercenary in the woods at the moment.He was not among the people who escaped from the main hall, so Zhai Jingqiu felt that something was wrong for a moment.But this is actually not a big deal for the escape team.

"Hidden rules", Lu Ning knew that not all of these rules might have been found out, but there must be some special triggering conditions, such as if there were more living tourists than the characters in the scene, it would be triggered.

So, is it also a condition that all tourists choose to play themselves?
In this case, what to do with those who have been promoted or eliminated?Just appear as a character in the scene like in previous rounds?But Lu Ning has definitely learned that the characters replaced by tourists are a fundamental replacement. Doctors, nutritionists...these people's original lives have been completely replaced by tourists.What happens in this situation?
What happened after Jason was killed vaguely points to the answer.Watanabe Fuchiko didn't even need to explain. After learning the news, Lu Ning roughly concluded that Jason had an accomplice, and this accomplice was Orlando. This inference was simply a matter of course.

"Copy?" Lu Ning added slightly provocatively.

A response finally came from the woods.

"Copy, huh?"

Orlando emerged from behind a tree, a shotgun in his hand and a gloomy look on his face.

"Not at all."

"Oh?"

"When I woke up again, I found that I was back on this island again. I was angry that you didn't keep your agreement. I even wanted to kill someone at that time, but when Jason found me, I realized that maybe it wasn't Like this. At the same time, I have the memory of another Orlando, the mercenary."

He weighed the gun in his hand and stared at Lu Ning.

"To be precise, the distribution center will replace the position occupied by tourists with a character in the same state as you. You are integrated with yourselves in the scene, and I am in the same state. The difference is - I don't have the same state as you. The possibility of pulling away.”

He can only stay, and he is not the heart palace.The mixture of the two memories allowed him to fully understand the current situation. When the main body had advanced and left, his derived consciousness only produced loneliness that could not be erased.

Jason died because he wanted to die, and died the way he wanted.

Orlando is still alive, and he is still unwilling to accept it.

"Staying in a certain world is the most terrifying thing. We all know that these worlds are under the sight of the distribution center, and the birth and death of the world is just a matter of the distribution center's thoughts. How can this make me feel at ease? I don't I will use reasons like it will take a long time to convince myself... My luck has always been very good, but I am obviously not."

Lu Ning also knew that these words were not meant for her.Orlando just gradually fell into extreme extremes in repeated self-doubt, especially when this clone still had two memories.

"You finally found me." Lu Ning said, "Isn't this the solution you are seeking for yourself?"

"Yes, if I can get Howard's inheritance, can I also get a chance? Even if I return to my true body, I am not willing to stay in this place. Ah, or I am killed by you, it doesn't make any difference, right? wrong?"

A smile suddenly appeared on Orlando's gloomy face, but it also seemed like he was crying.

"If it were just any one of them, it wouldn't be like this." He said in an annoyed voice, "I can live with the mind of a tourist, or leave as a mercenary who knows nothing!"

After shouting these words, the shotgun suddenly disappeared from his hand.

"boom."

Orlando opened his mouth and made a sound, and then he suddenly rushed towards Lu Ning.Lu Ning turned her arm, and a huge shadow appeared in front of her and punched it.The moment the two sides collided, the fist was shattered, but Orlando's movements also stopped.

He whipped his leg towards Lu Ning's head, and a large number of steel saw teeth were drilled out of his calf.Lu Ning raised her hand to stop him. The sound of gold and iron clashing made her take a few steps back.

The physical gap between doctors and mercenaries is still quite large.

"Oh?" Orlando made a slightly surprised sound.

He was not surprised that Lu Ning could block the blow, but that his cuffs flashed with fire.

Summoning demons can be done as long as there is flame, but the flame actually comes from his body - when did Lu Ning light the fire on him?She made no corresponding action.

Although he was surprised, Orlando's movements were not slow at all. After his whip leg was blocked, he waved his hand and punched out, with a jagged blade emerging from his knuckles.This time, Lu Ning did not block, but instead pulled out a pistol with her backhand and pointed it at his face and shot!
At such a close distance, Orlando was shot directly through the head, but the bullet did not shatter his head, only leaving a hole.

Orlando threw his head back and fell backwards, but when he was almost on the ground, he suddenly spoke.

"boom."

The lying body suddenly twisted, and in a way that humans could never do, it punched Lu Ning's side out of thin air - but Lu Ning managed to avoid it in time.

"You reacted very quickly." Orlando complimented casually, but his offensive did not slow down at all.Lu Ning had no chance to fire a second shot, and was forced by this attack to call out the demon again.

The opponent can smash the demon into pieces with one blow. This attack power is obviously given by the ability of the distribution center.And the bloody hole on his head has disappeared.

That's what Orlando is capable of.His first ability was to fuse a shotgun into himself, and apparently the saws on his hands and feet, as well as other items such as saws, were also fused by him.And the other ability...healing?
Not a cure.

"Do you even have the power to be cracked?" Lu Ning asked.

Before this, Orlando had used his ability to delay the arrival of death. Now it seems that he has used this ability on himself?
"I don't know why." Orlando raised his hand again and said, "Bang."

At this moment, a sharp cone suddenly penetrated his chest and flew into Lu Ning's hand. Before he could use his speed, he immediately lost his life.And then, he regained his vitality again, and the scars on his chest and even his clothes quickly returned to their original state.

"Can you postpone your death indefinitely?" Lu Ning frowned, "But you will still die. This has nothing to do with any ending you want -"

"I don't care about that. If I win, I may be able to advance. If I lose, then I will die at the right time." Orlando grinned, "Lu Ning, the nearest death to me was twelve hours later. Can you fight me for twelve hours? This is my last resort, Orlando!"

"There is nothing that cannot be killed."

After Lu Ning's words, another sharp cone pierced Orlando's temple.His ability does not provide much help in terms of defense, at least for now it seems that it cannot block the attack of the Soul Resurrection Pillar.

"It's useless." Orlando snorted again after pulling out the awl, "This can only bring me a little pain, but death will never come to me!"

He swooped forward, the saw teeth on his hand extended, and the saw blade swept across, tearing the demon in front of him into two pieces.The index finger of the other hand turned directly into the barrel of a gun.

"Arm Fusion" can give him the speed of bullets, and can also turn him into a firearm!

At the same time, Lu Ning also stretched out his finger and made a gesture like a gun.

The moment the two of them fired at each other, the bullets and the cones passed by each other, and the cones were faster!Orlando's fingers were broken and a fatal wound penetrated his neck, while Lu Ning was only shot in the shoulder.Both of them narrowed their eyes. Orlando was surprised by Lu Ning's reaction, while Lu Ning was still wary of Orlando.

She didn't have much fire left to summon the demon, and the surroundings couldn't hide much of it.The silk thread used for ignition must also be mixed in the attack, otherwise it will be easy for the opponent to catch the flaw.On top of that, Orlando still has an ability that it hasn't used yet.

In a flash of thought, Lu Ning had summoned a demon again.She must not engage in close combat with the opponent now. Even though she has just blocked a few times, she is still not as strong as the person played by Orlando in terms of physical fitness. She must keep a distance.

Orlando obviously relies on his own ability and doesn't mind trading injuries for injuries. Every attack he makes is accompanied by a sharp cone piercing his body, and the devil's obstruction also costs him half of his body. Another demon was taken care of.

Just when Lu Ning was preparing to deal with his next close approach, Orlando suddenly took out a book from his arms.

Jason's magic book!
"You're not the only one who got the external force of the scene!" Orlando yelled, and the saw blade cut the book in two.Immediately afterwards, green flames surged into the sky, and in the direction of the main pavilion, a demon hovered up, its huge body flying towards here quickly.The demon made a deafening roar, but it was not the same type as the demon summoned by Lu Ning.

Lu Ning also took out the last pointed awl from his sleeve.

"Come on!" Orlando shouted at the devil, not even guarding against the cone's attack.The ritual dagger passed through his mouth, penetrated his brain and flew directly into the air.And the huge demon had already flown closer, pressing down on his head with a giant hand filled with green fire, but it seemed as if he was going to bury the two of them together!
Lu Ning also put one hand on her chest at this time. The pain of the flames did not seem to make her confused at all. She bowed slightly to Orlando who raised his finger and aimed at her.

"Please - return to the soul."

Flames exploded in the jungle, and there was no other color between heaven and earth.In the flames, Orlando stared blankly at Lu Ning, who was turning into ashes. The metal drilled out of his skin protected him for a moment, but he made no more movement.

Watanabe Fuchiko looked out from the conference hall and saw only green flames gathering and dissipating in the sky.Lian Qingyi, Yu Guiting, Jiuzhu Pingzhen and Han Xizhe all looked out the window with the mentality of watching the excitement.Watanabe Fuchiko gently tossed the coin in her hand, and when it fell, it was heads up.

"good omen."

Lu Ning opened her eyes at the table. The feeling of being burned to death was not very wonderful, and for some reason on this island, there would be a fire-related disaster every round.

However, she had already received a notification from the distribution center - the speed at which she used the effect of the soul-returning column to send Orlando's soul away was just that much faster than the speed at which she herself was burned to death.

[You have obtained Renix’s legacy: Eight Eyes Island.Congratulations on the promotion. 】
