Chapter 211 The Death of a Hero
After a short jet buffer, the "Night Knight" finally landed on the ground.

Because of its posture, center of gravity, and lack of control, the "Night Knight" immediately fell backwards after landing, and the two mysterious devices behind it soon crashed into the ground.

The light of the device's operation quickly dimmed, the female singing stopped abruptly, and the curtain covering the entire atrium also suddenly disappeared.

Arthur withdrew the tactical knife, and Hui Yuanchu also took two steps back and let go of the fire thallium hero.

As a result, a large amount of blood like a powerless fountain poured out from the broken heart of the fire thallium hero and fell down.

The flames erupted from his body for a brief moment before going out again.

Next, he was no different from a dying ordinary person, just curling up helplessly in a pool of his own blood.

His life has entered the countdown.

Hui Yuanchu raised his head and looked at Arthur across from the fire thallium hero. He was a little surprised: "...not holding back at all?"

Arthur squatted down, pressed his fingers on the side of the fire thallium hero's neck, and helped him count down.

"First, the Fire Thallium Hero has already rejected the group's solicitation once, so the order given to him this time is a death order." He answered while lowering his head and paying attention to the Fire Thallium Hero's condition.

"Second, he really killed too many people this time..."

"Finally..." Arthur pointed with his thumb to the cabin behind the "Gray Knight" who was paralyzed on the side, "——The special suppressor for the person in power, 'Device P', due to equipment failure, is now completely unable to guarantee stability. Work. So for safety reasons, I really can’t afford to keep it.”

"So this is it? The equipment you and Kui were talking about...wait a minute, didn't you say before that the plane would arrive in an hour?" Hui Yuanchu looked at the time display in Epinoia, "There should be half of it left now. More than hours..."

Arthur was stunned: "You don't know?"

"what……."

"That time was fake from the beginning, right? While Oriuru Aoi was pretending to discuss 'the helicopter will arrive in an hour' with us, in fact the helicopter was probably landing."

"Is there such a thing? I don't know?" Hui Yuan was a little confused.

"Logically speaking, you have the authority to know...don't you?" Arthur said kindly, "How about you take a look at your Epionia inbox?"

Hui Yuanchu immediately opened the Epionia inbox.

There is actually a message from Zhe Lukui lying inside.But the time was... just 1 minute ago?
Hui Yuanchu immediately chose to open it.

The voice of Epionia's imaginary Zelukui sounded:
"Xiao Hui, when you received this message, you should still be fighting with the fire thallium hero, right?"

"As for me, I have already boarded the helicopter and am escorting the snake back to the regional branch."

The message paused for a moment.

Hui Yuanchu's expression couldn't help but twitch, it was really the same as what Arthur said...

Zhe Lukui's voice became very surprised: "Isn't it possible? Isn't it possible that Xiao Hui still doesn't realize it at all now?"

"As long as you have a brain, you should think of it - Snake's ability is concentrated in the spiritual realm, such as 'whispering'. So without knowing enough about him, out of caution, of course I have to carry out appropriate information control to prevent Our intelligence was stolen by the snake and leaked to the Fire Thallium Hero through whispers.”

"In other words, 'the helicopter takes an hour to arrive' is false information that I deliberately released to everyone. And among everyone present, only I, Arthur, and you have the authority to know the real landing time. "

"Now it seems that this measure is indeed correct. Snake really stole this time point from somewhere. The subsequent actions of the fire thallium hero seem to be carried out according to the plan based on this time. "

The message paused for a moment.

...It makes sense, it makes sense.

The snake has the ability to whisper, that is, to make others hear his words.So on the other hand, maybe he also has some ability to eavesdrop on people's voices?
Therefore, Orokuchi didn't tell anyone.This makes sense...

——But Orokui didn’t tell him either!
Just now, while saying that he was qualified to know this matter as if nothing had happened, she didn't tell him at all!

Hui Yuan was complaining crazily in his heart, but because the other party just left a message, he couldn't say it out loud. He only felt more and more depressed.

After giving him enough time to feel aggrieved, Zhe Lukui continued: "Xiao Hui must be unhappy too, so why didn't I tell you in advance, right?
"Of course there is a reason...

"Because this is the punishment for disobedient little gray."

She said the last two words loudly.

"I made it clear to you at that time. Because there is no gain, I don't want you to get involved in this matter and wipe the ass of Arthur's mission. We obviously only need to take the snake with us when the time is up. Just leave...but you have to choose to stay and help Arthur..."

"Ah, it's friendship. Isn't it? It's great."

Oruru Aoi read in an emotionless voice.

"...It's like a stupid dog that excitedly rushes to roll in the mud whenever it rains, and can't even hold on to the rope collar."

She finished her sentence in a low-temperature tone, and then let out a heavy breath.

"call--"

"Okay, then you can continue in that puddle and continue playing in the mud with Arthur and the Fire Thallium Hero." "No matter how hard you try, you can't die."

"That's it, you've had enough fun, remember to come back."

The message is over.Zhe Lukui's voice was still rising when she said the last sentence, full of joy.

Hui Yuanchu silently closed the message and curled his lips.

...so vindictive.

However, from the very beginning, Oriuru Aoi didn't insist on his "can't help Arthur" reaction, Haiyuan knew that she actually didn't care too much about this matter.

Hui Yuanchu didn't care whether he was "punished" or not.Anyway, in fact, his activities were not affected, and he had a good time with Arthur, which was enough.

But at the same time, Arthur also sighed, and it sounded much heavier.

Hui Yuan looked up at Arthur and heard him say, "I owe Zhe Lukui another favor."

"...Huh?" Hui Yuanchu asked in confusion, "...Do you mean to thank Miss Zhe for not running away at that time? She stayed with us for half an hour longer, so she is particularly gentle?"

"The 'Device P' removed from the helicopter has a mechanical problem, and the maintenance engineer has only just managed to start it now."

Hui Yuan was stunned for Arthur's not straightforward answer.

What Arthur means is... Orokui can really leave, but in that case, the people who are left behind - Arthur, Hui Yuanchu, and STF - will have to live without the P device. Under such circumstances, he was forced to face the onslaught of fire thallium heroes summoned by whispers.

But Zhe Lukui waited until device P was activated before leaving.

I just don’t know what her considerations are...

"This is probably really a kind of tenderness." Arthur shrugged, "And considering that this tenderness is definitely not for me, a competitor and potential enemy... So, probably, I just got the benefit of you."

Before Hui Yuan was about to say something, Arthur raised his hand again to stop him, and then said happily: "Of course I don't know if you are special to that witch, so that she really I am only gentle to you... But for the sake of my friend's physical and mental happiness, I suggest that my friend can deceive himself in this direction... Oh no, think about it."

Hui Yuanchu shut up angrily.

Arthur finally removed his hand from the Fire Thallium Hero's neck and stood up.

He looked at the watch on his wrist, tapped it a few times to turn on the recorder, and said: "Record: [-]:[-] pm. Fire thallium hero, heartbeat stopped."

Then he sighed silently, took out his communicator, and went to contact his subordinates.

Hui Yuanchu also sat down with somewhat complicated emotions and stared blankly at the Huo Thallium Hero's last expression.

Until the last moment, his face remained very calm.

There was no resentment to the point of contorting his expression, nor anger to the point of gnashing his teeth.

The expression of the hero of fire thallium, as before, is a kind of calm that can make the viewer feel firm enough inside.Just like under the calm sea, there are huge icebergs that will never melt.

His gaze finally froze at this moment, fixed in this state.

As if he was still alive, he stared at Hui Yuanchu firmly.

Being looked at like that, Huiyuan felt a little uncomfortable for a moment.

So he stretched out his hand, trying to help Huo Thallium Hero close his eyes - but the moment his hand touched Huo Thallium Hero's face, Hui Yuanchu suddenly jumped to the ground as if he was electrocuted, and then covered it with his other hand. He held his face and breathed fiercely.

After a few fierce breaths, Hui Yuanchu forced himself to calm down and turned around and shouted: "——Arthur!!"

"What?" Arthur, who was communicating with his subordinates not far away, turned around.

"Don't let people come over. Besides, you'd better try the P device again immediately to see if you can turn it on again. Now, immediately." Hui Yuanchu took a deep breath and said with great certainty, "—— That ritual has started."

He recalled the palpitations caused by the moment of contact, and confirmed once again that this feeling had not been interrupted, but was still flowing out from the depths of his heart.

Arthur was stunned for about half a second, and finally exclaimed in a low voice: "...How is it possible? We clearly avoided the formation."

The location where Hui Yuanchu and Arthur finally killed the fire thallium hero was not on the last rune without a body.The two of them tacitly avoided that position.

"I know." Hui Yuanchu said calmly, "But is there a possibility? This fancy-looking magic circle, and the seven corpses... are actually not necessary elements of the ritual at all? We and the Fire Thallium Hero have all been Cheated."

"Then what are the necessary elements of the ceremony?"

"Blood, flesh, and..." Hui Yuanchu closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and felt the feelings welling up from the depths of his body, and said to himself, "Maybe the most critical thing is just the fire thallium hero. 'Scream'."

Arthur was stunned for a long time, and finally said loudly: "Snake--"

But as soon as he uttered the first few words, he quickly calmed down.Stopping the meaningless venting of emotions, he shut his mouth and quickly ran towards the Night Knight, while at the same time loudly reporting the current situation into the communicator again.
