The faded person who shuttles between the everyday and the extraordinary

"That's a pity. It seems we still can't reach a consensus."

"It's okay~ I will personally take you to the torture room, and we will definitely be able to reach a consensus by then."

As he spoke, Esdeath led the three beast warriors and ran towards him teleporting. However, with the purple Tai Chi Bagua formation emerging under his feet, he just stood there and waved at Esdeath with a smile.

The next moment, Esdeath slashed away with his sword in the air, and icicles rained down from the sky, but he disappeared in the purple light.

Chapter 20 The truth is only within the range of the cannon... right? ·Go straight to the general among millions of troops

Esdeath, who wanted to kill An Yan on the spot but missed with one blow, stopped. When he wanted to retreat, he felt an inexplicable threat coming.

next moment......

- Boom! ! !

The huge firelight instantly enveloped her whole body.

Massive amounts of smoke and dust completely surrounded her.

The people on the city wall looked down expectantly, only to find that... Esdeath and three of her men were wrapped in a huge ice monster, and the monster just dragged its stumps and broken arms out of the fog. .

"Artillery attack! Immediate fire coverage! Kill this woman who is pestering me!!"

An Yan, who had no hope of destroying Esdeath by explosion, picked up the radio and gave an order. More than 60 guns lined up in a line behind him in the distance. The 203mm heavy howitzer that people had worked overtime to manufacture this month followed. The volley fired with a deafening roar.

Immediately afterwards, the artillery that had been adjusted at a good shooting angle caused a dense barrage to reach Esdeath in an instant, and was about to directly hit the ice monster she created.

However, huge icicles extended from the monster and flew towards the direction of the cannonball.

The thick firelight once again covered everyone's sight, accompanied by massive ice crystals sparkling in the sun.

In the huge roar that shook the earth and the mountains, the explosion flames, scattered grenade fragments, and countless ice fragments ravaged the open land several kilometers below in an instant.

Even the ice knights that Esdeath had been saving up for a while, as the vanguard, were completely turned into immovable ice shards, flying in the air with smoke, dust and flames.

On the towering city wall, An Yan was lying on the wall looking at the apocalyptic scene below, but he couldn't help but be moved and nodded in admiration:

"As expected, the truth is only within the range of the cannon~! Now Esdeath is sure...! Well, as expected, he is still alive. I knew this kid was determined to survive."

Seeing a familiar figure emerge from the fog, even bringing three subordinates with him in this case, he silently changed his words mid-sentence. He also gave up the intention of continuing to watch the excitement, wiped the rays and used the Dimensional Phalanx Shangri-La to bring His nose was bleeding, and he turned around silently and left the city wall.

..........................

..........................

An Yan deliberately asked both parties to gather in the same area, just to wait for the two of them to kill each other first and then take advantage.

But now...

"Those guys from the Revolutionary Army are so despicable! They are hiding behind and trying to take advantage! This is not what humans do at all!" He complained, took out the Shangri-La, and handed it to the berserkers behind him: "According to the investigation results of Five Vision Omnipotence, let's start from 1513 in sequence."

"Location 1513 activated."

"Location 1514 activated."

"Location 1515 activated."

.......

The berserkers took over Shangri-La one by one, and took turns activating the preset points on the imperial equipment.

When these transformation warriors didn't care about the adaptation problem and just took turns using it forcefully, purple light beams erupted from the city wall below.

If you could see it at the scene, one after another Tai Chi Bagua diagrams emerged from the feet of the Northern Crusade Team composed of Esdeath Army, and directly caused them to disappear on the spot.

In the blink of an eye, hundreds of Bagua pictures appeared in rotation, and the elite members of the Esdeath camp and An Yan's old acquaintances were all transported to unknown places.

The front troops encountered artillery fire, and the central elite disappeared, causing the entire northern expeditionary team to fall into chaos.

And An Yan just walked through the land that was completely ravaged by artillery fire, and came to Esdeath's already chaotic position.

His appearance immediately made the three men who were protected and escaped from the bombardment look fierce and wanted to kill him.

"I really misjudged you! I originally thought we could fight side by side! I didn't expect you to be so despicable!" Liwa raised his hand and gathered the blood left by the soldiers around him, forming a stream of blood in mid-air. arrow.

But An Yan quickly raised his hand: "Wait a minute! Let's get to know each other, don't rush to do it, right?"

"What do you want to say?" Esdeath walked out from behind the three of them, held Liwa's shoulders, and said fiercely: "You appear in front of me for the second time, do you have any last words?"

"I hope the dispute can be resolved peacefully."

"Peace? Haha! Are you talking to me about peace now!? What an interesting proposal!!" He seemed to be speaking quite seriously, which made Esdeath couldn't help laughing.

Even so, he was still not annoyed at all, and said calmly: "Of course you can refuse, if you don't mind having tens of thousands of elite soldiers to die together?"

"Do you think I will accept your threat?" Esdeath drew out his long sword and pointed it at him from afar, with determination on his frosty face.

It is clear that even if tens of thousands of soldiers are sacrificed, we will never compromise with him.

"Okay~ okay~ I think so... Then please go and save your comrades. They are in the middle of the revolutionary army behind. Now... Well, they should have started fighting by now. Is there? If you don’t go there quickly, you may have to collect the body for them.”

"Even if this happens, you won't have an easy time!" Esdeath, who knew he would escape, was not in a hurry to attack, but narrowed her eyes and stared at him:

"A person can only choose one Teigu. This is an iron rule that even I must abide by. As long as the Teigu is equipped, I cannot use another Teigu even if I don't use it, because the Teigu equipped on my body state, the unconscious consciousness of the Teigu itself will be connected to the spirit, so even I only chose one Teigu and did not contaminate the other Teigu, otherwise it would be your turn to use Shangri-La?... And if a What do you think will happen if a person uses two Teigu?"

"It's okay. I'll just use two of them occasionally, so you don't have to worry about it."

"——The answer is collapse. The mind and body will be completely destroyed, and every use will leave indelible wounds. I am very curious about how long you can escape." Esdeath looked at the dimensional cube in his hand. Zhen·Shangri-La showed a chilling smile on his face, but he just waved his hands disapprovingly: "Compared with things in the future, you should care about the present."

As soon as the words fell, An Yan disappeared, leaving only the bones scattered on the ground, Esdeath, whose face was turning ashen, and three men who were filled with anger.

"...That idiot, Minister! He actually handed over such an important Teijin to a loser! Now Shangri-La is back in the hands of that despicable guy. If you want to kill him, you can basically wait for him to slowly die violently."

Cursing with hatred, Esdeath was no longer sure of killing Anyan.

Such a speech shocked the three beast warriors. This was the first time they heard such a frustrating speech from Esdeath. Daidas couldn't help shouting:

"Lord Esdeath! Even if that guy has grown a lot and has indeed won over many people, but even so, he can't be your opponent, right? Even if there is a Space Teigu, as long as he seizes the opportunity... There may still be a chance!”

Seeing him getting more and more unsure as he spoke, Esdeath also showed a wry smile: "You know that, right? That guy is quite cunning, and he likes to hide behind him every time something happens. Such a guy is not good to begin with. Catch, there was no Space Teigu before and it was still in the Imperial Capital. I didn’t know where to find it. How are you going to catch it now? In the final analysis..."

"He is very aware of his own strength and will always avoid confrontation with strong people. It is impossible for him to show up and fight us head-on. Therefore, it is impossible for him to confront you, Lord Esdeath." Levi said to Ai in a deep voice. Sids added to his speculation and frowned: "In other words, when we get the Space Imperial Gear, we can only wait until he is killed by the backlash, or we fight with his power. Even if he can take the core of his subordinates with him, it is impossible for him to take away all of his subordinates."

"But... Lord Esdeath, isn't this a lose-lose situation?" Daidas had an unacceptable expression on his face.

"But to compromise now is my unilateral defeat! - Let's set off, although it is unpleasant, but now we have to talk to the revolutionary army first, otherwise we must first deal with the revolutionary army and rescue our men!"

No longer continuing this empty conversation, Esdeath quickly led the people towards the revolutionary army camp.

..........................

..........................

It was built on the Tate Pass at the junction of two mountain ranges.

After just chatting with Esdeath for a while and seeing how she wanted to kill him but couldn't kill him, Anyan felt relieved and returned to Tat Pass.

While watching Esdeath lead the retreat on the city wall, he ordered the semi-super dangerous species transformed by Cosmia, who likes to play with men, to look like a spider, and let this big spider go to the battlefield to devour flesh and blood. Keep growing.

Instead, he returned to the camp tent behind Tateguan, lay down on the bed, and planned to take a nap before going to see how Esdeath and the revolutionary army were doing.

"...Will it really go as smoothly as you imagined?" Nadjeta, with a solemn face, was smoking in the tent, but she was not so optimistic about the current situation.

An Yan waved his hand to make the wind blow away the smoke, and at the same time said a little depressed but quite confidently:

"The current situation is obvious. If Esdeath wants to save his own people, he must either kill your revolutionary army, or negotiate with the revolutionary army to unite against me."

"What if we unite?"

"It is impossible for the revolutionary army to unite with Esdeath. Now I have the right, and Esdeath's troops are also famous for their cruelty and ruthlessness. Everywhere they go is massacre... Forget it, she is not only They will only massacre but also deliberately leave a group of people for revenge, and most of those people have joined the revolutionary army. Do you think they will agree to the alliance? If the revolutionary army unites, the cohesion of the revolutionary army itself will completely collapse."

"Is that true?" After listening to his analysis, Nadjeta also felt that this seemed to be the truth.

"So your job now is to supervise their situation. I'll lend you my five-sightedness. Find someone to keep an eye on them and notify me of any news... I'm a little dizzy now. Please don't talk to me. "

"....You should use the Shangri-La less. This thing is too heavy, and your Teigu cannot be removed and replaced."

"But if I leave it to others, it's hard to grasp the timing of retreat. If I miss it, I will turn into a popsicle like a seal in the Arctic."

In response to this kind suggestion, he just waved his hand casually, causing Nadjeta to sigh and leave here, shaking her head.

But she had only been walking for a while when Chitong walked into the tent carrying lunch.

"It's time to eat! If you don't eat well, you won't have the strength to change the world!"

With a rare good mood, Chitong put the dinner plate on the table with a smile, and then turned around coolly: "Well, the food has been delivered, I will leave first."

"Wait a minute." An Yan, who was lying on the bed, suddenly raised his head and grabbed the hem of her skirt.

"Oh, oh...you didn't sleep?" Chitong stopped subconsciously, instinctively looked down at the place he grabbed, and raised his fingers with a straight face to preach: "No matter what you say, even if you want to Asking others to stop and grabbing a girl's skirt, no matter what, even I think there is something wrong."

"...Didn't you promise Heitong to marry me? There's no need to care about this now, right?"

"This, this..." Chitong suddenly looked embarrassed, but An Yan waved her hand unexpectedly and generously: "Forget it, actually I also understand that it is forcing others to do something difficult, so we can just be friends now. "

"——You are unexpectedly a good person!" Chi Tong didn't know how many times she had changed her mind about him.

The slight awkwardness that existed when getting along with him was finally eliminated at this moment, and an overjoyed expression appeared on his face.

However... An Yan waved her hands with a black line on her face: "No... I'm really tired of hearing you say this. How bad can I be in your heart to have so many accidents??"

"...Isn't this...very bad?"

The first time he wanted to abduct Heitong, and the second time they met, he took advantage of Heitong's weakness. However, in the current atmosphere, Chitong didn't feel comfortable saying this, so he just scratched his cheek in embarrassment.

"Okay, then..."

"I'm ready to go?"

"No, I just kept you here just to ask." He held on to the hem of the girl's skirt, stared at the vegetables on the plate, and said without raising his head: "Why are there only vegetables left in my meal?" ?Is money so tight lately that even I have to cut back on my clothes and go on a vegetarian diet?"

"Yes, yes! This is it!"

"....You ate it secretly, right?"

"?!" Chitong was suddenly startled, and then when the matter was exposed, he accidentally dropped his hands between his legs, lowered his head and said sincerely: "I'm really sorry, I just want to help you. Give it a try, but the skills of the royal chef are really great. If you don't pay attention, you will... No, but! I have all my strength to fight against my instinct! I left vegetables for you! Eating more vegetarian dishes is good for your health! Just as you have been recently I’m not feeling well, this isn’t...!”

"That's enough excuses, right? I'm a master at making excuses. Are you sure you want to make excuses in front of me?"

"...I'm sorry..." Chitong, who was interrupted mid-sentence, was frustrated and lowered his head again.

"Well, you have to be punished if you do something wrong, right?"

"this....."

"Of course I'm not a devil, and I can't possibly ask you to recreate these things that you've eaten, but since you've eaten them, now let me get someone to make a new one, and then knead it for me while I'm eating. How about a shoulder rub? Fair enough, right?"

“But I’ve never learned to rub shoulders??”

"It's okay, it's okay~ No one is born with this kind of thing, I will teach you very kindly~"

Now she just wants to wait for Esdeath and the revolutionary army to suffer losses. An Yan, who is enjoying the gains and taking advantage of them, is holding on to the hem of Chitong's skirt with a smile of catching a new toy, forcing the girl who originally wanted to escape to follow. nod.

When the girl with long black hair came back with food, there was a groaning sound in the tent, and...

"Ah...wait, wait! Uh~~~! Light..."

"Eh? I heard that girls should use a little more force, right? Isn't it okay for you to do this?" Chitong stopped moving and looked at him with a puzzled expression.

The girl's ignorant gaze instantly injected invisible power into him, causing him to grit his teeth and force out a smile: "What nonsense are you talking about!? Who said I can't do it? I want to tell you that it's not easy to take lightly! A real man must be the biggest Power! - Oh, oh! So...so cool~!"

"Are you comfortable? I always feel like you're about to cry? Are you really okay?"

"No, it's okay!! I'm - happy! I'm so lucky in this life! To meet such a top massage therapist again!!"

"Am I that talented?"

"Of course... of course! Hmm...! Don't underestimate your... talents!!"

.......

Nothing strange unfolds.

During the very serious massage, An Yan's intermittent sounds echoed throughout the tent, because... the power exerted by the girl's slender arms could be said to be completely beyond his imagination.

Every time he kneaded, his bones almost fell apart.

How strong is the strength in the hands of a girl who can jump dozens of meters high and slash down with a knife, and can cut a monster dozens of meters tall and still wearing metal armor into two... An Yan doesn't want to think about this anymore.

Until he endured all this and finished eating, it was as if he had gone through an extremely cruel trial. He was sweating profusely and collapsed on the bed, looking like he was dying with more air coming out and less air coming in.

Chitong sat on the edge and asked with apologetic concern: "Are you really okay? Your condition looks like..."

"Don't look down on people...I'm fine! Very good!"

"Yes, that's right..."
