Chapter 561 The Focus of Contention

Tower Town, the stage for mythical beasts.

A large shadow was cast down from the sky, and then Youzi carried Li You and the other two to the center of the stage.

Li You immediately jumped off Youzi's back and rushed towards the stage entrance.

Next to the gate, Xu Liye was lying there, his clothes stained with blood, and a prosthetic puppet with half of its head broken was using emergency means to treat his wounds.

Li You quickly squatted down beside Xu Liye and the cyborg puppet. After taking a look at Xu Liye's injuries, he knew that simple treatment would definitely not work.

“I’m sorry, I couldn’t… fulfill Lady Torina’s request and couldn’t wake her up. I’m sorry…”

"Okay, stop talking nonsense. I don't intend to let you die."

Li You was too lazy to listen and directly took out the crystal holy bell that had not been used for a long time from his backpack. He shook it gently, and with the crisp sound of the bell, a golden recovery array emerged with Li You as the center, radiating warm light.

Under the illumination of that light, Xu Liye's injuries recovered quickly. Although he was not fully recovered yet, his life was no longer in danger.

"I'm not very good at recovery miracles, so just make do with it." Li You put away the Crystal Holy Bell, pulled Xu Liye up, and let him sit against the wall. "What's going on?"

Xu Liye also took a deep breath before looking at Li You: "I met Kara here... but... I failed to keep her."

Since Li You woke up Torina and talked with her last time, the two sides decided to fight against Michaela together. As Torina's believer and messenger, Xu Liye has been following her guidance to pursue Kara.

According to Tolina herself, Kara had been blessed by her, and she could vaguely sense Kara's existence. So when Huliye, her believer, approached Kara, Tolina could sense it and give her a hint in her dream.

This man, Xu Liye, has a special trait. He can drink Tolina's nectar without dying, nor will he fall into a complete sleep. This physique makes him the best candidate to search for Kara.

Following Torina's guidance, he came all the way to Xuliye at the top of the Tower Town and finally met Kara as he wished.

He followed Li You's instructions at the time and let the prosthetic puppet send a message to Li You, while he himself came forward to talk to Kara, hoping to keep her.

As for the result...no need to say more.

Fortunately, Li You finished what he needed to do, and then flew over here quickly with the help of Youzi.

The spiral tower sealed by the shadow is floating above the Tower Town, so the divine beast stage here is not far from the sealed tree of the ancient ruins of Laufer in a straight line, which is why Li You can catch up.

Li You looked at the wound on Xu Liye's body again, and compared it with the big sword that Kara had used before in his memory. He couldn't help but frowned: "Not only did she not listen to you, but she also hurt you? This..."

"No, she actually listened to it at first, but then something unexpected happened," Hullier said. "The situation at that time was like this..."

According to Hurier, Kara did pause when she first heard Torina's name and was willing to listen to him, but when Hurier handed her a specially prepared nectar, Kara chose to refuse.

It was obvious that something was wrong with her at that time. She used to speak fluently and was as decisive as before, but after seeing Torina's nectar, she became a little mentally unstable, as if her mind was in chaos.

Kara didn't take the nectar in the end, but chose to ignore Xu Liye and planned to leave.

"Didn't you send the prosthetic puppet into the field as I said before?" Li You asked.

It would have been better if he hadn't asked. As soon as he mentioned this, Hurier glanced at him, paused for a long time, and then said: "I did what you said, and that's why I was beaten like this!"

Li You: "?"

"Although she originally refused to accept the nectar, she had no intention of fighting me. But after I did as you said and made that puppet turn into your appearance and talk to her, she just chopped me with a knife!"

Xu Liye was so excited that he even spoke in a louder voice: "She first chopped your puppet with two swords, and then chased me and chopped me three or four times!"

"She was slashing and shouting at the same time. If I hadn't been prepared and poisoned her in advance to force her back, I would have been chopped into pieces by now!"

"Tell me, what idea did you come up with?!"

Li You: "???"

Why! ?

V, who was standing next to him, finally lived in Bengbu. He laughed: "Isn't it obvious? She's going to chop you!"

Li You: "......"

Facing Hullie's resentful eyes and listening to V's loud laughter, Li You blushed a little. This shouldn't happen, right? Does Kara hate me so much? You're going to chop me up whenever you see me?
"I'm afraid... Michaela was the one who specifically emphasized the hint to Kara."

Melina appeared at some point and said calmly, "After the last time, Michaela became wary of you and paid more attention to Kara's role. He certainly doesn't want Kara to be affected again when she sees you again. So he must have made preparations... probably what Hurley saw."

Li You understood: "So that means Kara is in a state of mind where she will fight me to the death."

"That's about it."

Li You couldn't help but press his forehead: "...Okay, it's getting more and more troublesome and difficult to deal with. But, anyway."

He looked at Xu Liye again: "Kara's appearance here now means..."

Xu Liye also understood what he meant, put away his resentment, and nodded: "Well, that should be it."

"She is responsible for transporting Lord Monger's body."

Torina knew a thing or two about Michaela's plan, after all, they had coexisted as halves in the past. So before this, Torina had speculated that Kara had a high probability of being sent by Michaela to escort Monger's body.

But this is just a guess after all, and Tolina couldn't be completely sure, so in the end Li You didn't make any big move, but just released the prosthetic puppet that had just been repaired and followed Xu Liye.

But now, Huliye met Kara in the Tower Town below the Spiral Tower. She, the main combat force, appeared here alone at this time. Considering that the stairs next to the Divine Beast Stage lead to the elevator leading to the Spiral Tower, Tolina's previous conjecture was basically true.

"Micaela really gave Monger's body to Kara to transport...but where is she now?"

Although the previous guess was confirmed, the problem was still not solved, and Li You couldn't help but frowned.

Their previous plan was to have Hurier give Torina's nectar to Kara, let her fall asleep, and then have Li You use the broken Michaela Grand Rune to remove the enchantment for her. Letting the prosthetic puppet follow Hurier was also partly to be prepared for any unexpected events when executing the plan.

But now, the plan has failed from the very first step, and it is obvious that it cannot proceed further.

"Although I didn't hold out much hope at first, but now that this is happening, I'm afraid she won't show up so easily again."

Li You was worried, and Aiji beside him suddenly realized something: "Someone is coming!"

Everyone reacted immediately, Li You and V stood in front, Edge and the injured Hurryer retreated behind them, and Yuzu did not take off for the time being, but was ready to spit out breath.

Then, a newcomer came out from behind the stage door. He was wearing a black robe with gorgeous patterns. He was a blood noble. He did not take out a weapon, but opened his hands to show that he was not a threat.

Li You immediately remembered something: "Naitan?"

The blood noble nodded and took out a letter.

Everyone relaxed a little. Blood noble Naitan, he was one of the veteran Ampah's subordinates and was Ampah's designated contact person.

Li You took the letter, unfolded it and read it, then fell into thought. His companions also passed it around and understood the situation.

Ampah's letter explained two things in brief sentences: first, Reda and her group had arrived at the ancient ruins of Laufer and were exploring, while the Horned People remained in the species collection.

Secondly, Ampah himself had already reached the ancient ruins, and through the secret code left by Li You and his team during their exploration, he got ahead of Leida and the others. He planned to continue following Leida and the others, while the rest of his men were sent by him to search for Monger's body.

The first point was not surprising, but the second point made Li You's eyes light up.

"So, this route to Tolina is probably not feasible. Maybe we can try this way. After all, Kara should be in the same place as Monger's body."

After making up his mind, Li You clapped his hands and said, "Let's do it!"

He then looked at Nathan: "I know everything. I need to trouble you with one thing."

"The body of Blood King Mung should be in the hands of my apprentice, so you can take him with you. He can roughly find the location of my apprentice."

Li You pushed Hullie out and said, "If you two work together, I believe you can achieve twice the result with half the effort. Then, there's no need to reply to Mr. Ampah, because I'm going to meet him next."

Naitan looked at Xu Liye, then at Li You, and finally bowed respectfully and left with Xu Liye.

Li You turned to his companions and said with a relaxed look: "It's about time. Let's go and meet our Lady Leida... They are no longer of any use."
