Day of Imprisonment

#429 - We only do one thing

The arrival of Lu Ting instantly livened up the originally dull teahouse.

They were all partners who had shared life and death, friends who had absolute trust in each other even before the thousands of cycle days. Otherwise, Lu Ting wouldn't have only accepted these four people.

The number of people was small, but it could be 100% certain that these four people completely obeyed her orders and, moreover, would never betray her.

"Sister Ting!" Ge's eyes were a little wet.

Lu Ting rubbed her head and looked at the others.

"Long time no see, is everyone doing well?"

"We're doing great."

"Ren, how are you?"

"You can see, I'm very good, and never before has there been a time like this moment where I feel so good." Lu Ting smiled, then took a deep breath. It could be seen that she wasn't lying, because the Lu Ting that the others knew was always full of worries, her nerves were tense most of the time, and she looked like she was being crushed by a weight of ten thousand pounds, making it hard for her to breathe.

But now, she was really happy.

Just like a child who got ice cream, her pupils carried light.

"Ren, are we really Luo Xi's knives?" 'Jian' was the youngest, and seemed to care very much about this matter, and couldn't help but ask again at this moment.

The others also looked over.

Ren was the leader of the 'Knife' organization, and her words were the final result.

Lu Ting glanced at the others and said with the most affirmative tone: "Yes, we are Luo Xi's knives."

After receiving confirmation, the doubts and confusions in their hearts disappeared completely.

As long as 'Ren' said it, then they would accept it. This was also why Lu Ting had chosen these few to become the core members of 'Knife' in the first place.

Moreover, this 'knife' of theirs had been sharpened enough, and for long enough, it was time to be unsheathed and slay the enemy.

But at this moment, Lu Ting shook her head.

"There's no need to find Luo Xi!"

"What?" The others were all stunned.

Didn't they say that they were Luo Xi's knives? If they didn't find Luo Xi, how would the other party wield the knife?

If they didn't wield the knife, how would they know who to cut down?

"Our goal has only ever been one from the beginning." Lu Ting said at this time.

Among the few, Bing and Ge, who were relatively smart, already had their eyes light up and guessed the answer.

"Wei Si?"

"Yes!"

Lu Ting nodded: "From the beginning, the meaning of our existence as this knife was to kill Wei Si."

"But, what exactly is Wei Si?" Bing asked at this time: "In the past, I came into contact with some Remnants of the Divine Sect. In their cognition, Wei Si is a god, an omnipotent and omniscient god, but I know that there is no god in this world at all, so what is Wei Si? Is it a Remnant, or something else?"

The others also wanted to know this question, so they all looked at Lu Ting at this moment, hoping she could give an answer.

Lu Ting thought for a while and said: "I don't know much, and it may not be the truth, but I know that at this time, I need to answer this question for you."

At this moment, the others held their breaths and listened carefully.

"Simply put, this false world we are in is Wei Si's prison that imprisons us. In a sense, it's also right for the people of the Divine Sect to regard Wei Si as a god, because from a religious point of view, Wei Si does conform to various concepts of a god."

Hearing this, the other four people's expressions changed.

Although they had guessed this answer before, guessing was just guessing after all. Now that it was confirmed by Lu Ting, it was another matter.

This meant that they were fighting against a 'god'.

How could there be a chance of winning?

"As for Luo Xi, his only goal is to break the cage of the Day of Breaking the Imprisonment." Lu Ting's words made the other four people's expressions strange. If it wasn't determined what Wei Si was, then Luo Xi's goal would not have a problem, but if Wei Si was a god-like existence, Luo Xi's behavior was no different than hitting a stone with an egg.

But then, Lu Ting's words gave everyone goosebumps.

"Luo Xi is about to succeed!"

"Sister Ting, do you know something? What exactly is Luo Xi's plan? He, what does he plan to do? Directly kill Wei Si? But you know that death here is only relative, no one will really be killed..."

Ge couldn't help but ask at this time.

The other three people also had inquiring looks on their faces.

Lu Ting shook her head: "I don't know Luo Xi's plan. Everything is my guess. The basis of the speculation is my understanding of him, and also, I know that the moment 'Knife' is activated, it means that this game between him and Wei Si has reached the most critical moment... We are our own people. I couldn't say some things in the past, but now, some things can be said. I can very responsibly tell you that, in my opinion, Luo Xi is stronger than Wei Si, and I firmly believe that Luo Xi can break the Day of Breaking the Imprisonment and unlock the shackles on all of us."

Hearing these words, the other four people were first silent, then understood, and finally agreed.

Just like the trust and loyalty of these few people to 'Ren', Lu Ting, as 'Ren', also had absolute trust and loyalty to Luo Xi.

Even after thousands of cycle days had passed, this trust and loyalty would not change in the slightest.

"...Moreover, we are not alone, and we are definitely not fighting alone." Lu Ting seemed to hesitate to speak at this time. She knew very well that there were too many things Luo Xi needed to do to complete the entire Breaking the Cocoon plan. The 'Knife' of the Eternal Society was only one of them.

It might not even be the most important link.

In the beginning, among the elites of the Remnants gathered around Luo Xi, the real strong ones, she was just one of them.

In addition to her, there was Qiu Kui, Liu Mao, Lin Qiqi...

These initial members should all be 'pawns' arranged by Luo Xi.

Without a doubt, the game between Luo Xi and Wei Si was a big game, and the only real player on their side was Luo Xi alone.

A long time ago, when Luo Xi asked her to form the 'Knife' organization, this game had already begun. At that time, Luo Xi only told her one thing: to form the strongest Remnant team. When the 'building' collapsed, they would go and kill Wei Si.

Moreover, they really only needed to do this one thing.

That was to ensure that Wei Si was killed every cycle day.

Now, the building had collapsed.

This building was the 'home' that Luo Xi had faked. As for Wei Si, Lu Ting had actually been investigating the other party's location. Now she already knew that Wei Si was possessed by a girl named Zhou Ya.

The goal was clear, and the task was clear.

Next, they just needed to execute it.

"Knife, unsheathed!"
