Dragon Slaying, From Enrollment in Kassel to Mastery

Chapter 71 Sacrifice
"Why are you here?" Qian Li frowned, looking at Chu Zihang distractedly, with disapproval on his face.

Chu Zihang approached her: "Are you going to sacrifice yourself to save us?"

"Ah?" Qian Li's eyes were dull: "No."

Chu Zihang was also stunned.

Could he be wrong?
"I don't need to seek death." Qian Li blinked: "I haven't lived enough yet."

"Then why did you come here by yourself?" Chu Zihang asked.

Qianli was silent for a moment.

How should she tell the person in front of her that she came back this time only because she didn't find what she was looking for just now, and she originally wanted to wait for Deadpool to be blown away by those explosives and see if she could also blow up the secret room to see if she was there here.

After all, Genji Heavy Industries is only this big, and the most secret things must be hidden on this floor.

The other party's means of isolating perception is very high, she has no way of knowing the exact location, so she has to try her luck.

She wanted to speak but stopped talking and wanted to.

Forget it...

Probably it really has nothing to do with that thing.

"Go back." Qian Li said.

However, as soon as the words were finished, she noticed from the corner of her eye that the snake man who was knocked down behind them did not completely lose his mobility, but stood up unsteadily from the fire scene, raised his long knife with both hands, and pointed at Chu Zihang cut off behind his back.

"Be careful!" Qian Li's complexion changed, and without even thinking about it, he pulled Chu Zihang and switched places with him.

Chu Zihang felt that the surroundings were silent, and the picture in front of him was slowed down by hundreds of times, playing frame by frame in his field of vision.

The girl's long hair was flying in the air, behind her was the blazing sky, and the flames distorted everything, leaving only her gradually clear in front of her eyes.The raised eyebrows, the red shadows blurred in the corners of the eyes, and the skin is as white as snow, beautiful as if it appeared in a dream.

The long knife hanging above her head slashed down in the air with the momentum of destroying the sky.

He wanted to open his mouth to say something, but the gunpowder that had been arranged was completely detonated at this time.

The invisible shock wave rolled up the sky-high flames, pushing them outward.

Chu Zihang flew out with Qianli in his arms.

The loud noise of the explosion left him with only a roar, his mind went blank, and his only thought was to hug her tightly.

Hold Qianli tight.

Purpose, identity, everything is not important, as long as she can live safely.

"Why did it detonate early?!" Caesar yelled.

Yuan Zhisheng was also stunned.

According to their calculations, the bomb will take at least another 2 minutes before it will start to explode.

"What are you doing?!" He grabbed Caesar who was about to rush into the fire.

"Go and find them!" Caesar shook off him.

"It's useless." Yuan Zhisheng shook his head, he pointed to the open elevator door: "I don't know when the remaining bombs will detonate again, we have to protect ourselves first."

"I will not die, so remember, if something happens to me one day, all you have to do is leave the place regardless of the consequences, and I will go to you. Don't make unnecessary sacrifices, only you can make those sacrifices live." Valuable", this is what Qian Li once said to him.

"You are the young master of the Sheqi Ba Family and the future emperor. At any time, the first option is to protect yourself so that you can protect other people. Let the people below do the job of sending you to death. One moment, we are ready to sacrifice for our ultimate goal", this is Tachibana Political Religion.

It's what he has always done.

Caesar stared at Yuan Zhisheng incredulously: "What the hell are you talking about?"

It's ridiculous isn't it?A high-ranking emperor, a leader who has been in the top position for a long time, can abandon his companions and say such words without conscience and spine.

In this critical moment, what to do is not to live and die with your partners, but to live by yourself.

Just like the disgusting sticky snake mouse in the novel.

Yuan Zhisheng didn't speak, just looked at Caesar.

Caesar grabbed his collar and pressed it against the wall viciously: "Listen to your mother, don't even think about getting on the elevator and escaping by yourself. If my friends die, I guarantee you will not live, no matter what. Are you a great emperor or a giant tortoise, no, you are a rat in the gutter."

Yuan Zhisheng, who was already extremely weak, was so excited by the impact that he almost coughed out his lungs. He repeated with difficulty and didn't know whether he was trying to persuade himself or Caesar: "Don't make unnecessary sacrifices. The long-term task is to keep the team alive as much as possible."

"What is meaningless sacrifice? I just know that I can't just watch my partner die!" Caesar said every word: "I am not the team leader, I am a partner of justice. Never abandoning friends is mine. Justice, I live and die for my justice!"

As he said, he untied the colored knots around his waist and tied Yuan Zhisheng up, in case he took the opportunity to control the elevator to leave.

"You're really insulting these things." He looked at the colored threads.

This was given to him by Xia Qingfeng, and it was the only time he saw something called grief in the other person's eyes.

"This is a custom in the distant ancient Chinese battlefield, called 'return home knot'." Xia Qingfeng explained to him: "When soldiers are about to go to the battlefield, everyone draws a thread from their clothes to tie the knot. The ties are tied to each other, and those who survive have to take the ties to visit relatives of comrades in arms. I gave this to you, so if one day I die, you are responsible for taking the ties and telling my family."

For the first time, little Caesar took the net with his precious hands and tied it around his waist: "Where is your home?"

"I don't have a home, so you can't die." Xia Qingfeng looked serious.

Little Caesar: "..."

He has been wearing this all these years, but he has never tried to find Xia Qingfeng once.

In his cognition, that kind of idiot should live a long and heartless life.

"I can't stand myself who is no longer righteous. If someone else betrays justice, I will be the first to kill him."

After Caesar finished speaking, he rushed into the fire like an arrow leaving the string.

Righteous... partner?

Yuan Zhisheng looked at his back without hesitation, and sneered.

He was laughing at himself.

Once upon a time, he also wanted to be a partner of justice, but he failed to persist and became the person he least wanted to be.

Shameless, selfish, escaping, retreating, and even attacking those closest to him.

Just for the illusory righteousness and ultimate goal.

This kind of self made him feel funny.

Caesar was right, he was not an emperor or a tortoise, he was a mouse, a walking corpse, and a pile of mud.

All these years, the invisible and intangible ultimate goal has been supporting this body, and he is a puppet imprisoned by the body, a thing that is neither human nor ghost.

But what to do, just when he completely accepted himself like this, his light came back.

Still so bright and clean.

So pure without a trace of impurities.

He couldn't lose the light any more.

Yuan Zhisheng stood up, and the broken bones reassembled.

　Finally... After the metamorphosis, Yuanyuan can happily hee!
