Chapter 198 Elf Princess: Gu, kill me~
In the end, Li Cheng was not so unkind as to take away the remaining two large boxes of relics.

This is not because Mr. Li Cheng is so kind-hearted.

It's just that most of the things in the box are of little use to him.

Li Cheng’s game-passing rule 1: The more props, the better. The more props, the better.

Since I can't use it myself, I'll give it to my teammates to enhance their strength.

In exchange, Li Cheng would reluctantly give Mao the opportunity to become stronger in the future plot.

In the end, he only took two things from the box, apart from a few ordinary relics of the strength or speed-enhancing type.

[Red Eye Effect (Legend):]

[After wearing it, you can release red laser rays through your eyes. The intensity of the laser rays depends on the energy consumed when releasing them, and the maximum does not exceed twice the wearer's strength. ]

[As a price, the wearer's vision will decline with increasing usage. ]

This thing does not require chanting or preparation, it can be released with just a thought, and it is very useful whether it is a sneak attack, a surprise attack, or a surprise attack.

The cost of decreased vision is nothing to Li Cheng.

He has the power of regeneration in his body, repairing his body every moment, and the cost is almost nothing.

The second relic was a pair of pipe wrenches, which seemed to have been stolen from Lille.

[Pipe wrench that can be used on anything (rare) (material-type relic)]

[This relic can be connected to any weapon and serve as the weapon's handle, extending and retracting it at will.]

[Depending on the level of the docked weapon, you may get better special effects. 】

Even though this thing is only rated rare, it's pretty effective.

In addition to the [Lance of the Playmaker], Li Cheng also has a unique weapon of the [Dagger of the End].

This dagger can cut through iron like mud. In terms of destructive power alone, it can even catch up with the [Abyss Blade] of the Abyss Eye Witch.

It also has a special effect that transforms all killed people into abyssal life, which makes it a pretty good weapon.

But the only drawback is that it is too short and difficult to use under normal circumstances.

With the pipe wrench, this problem was solved.

Not to mention, after the pipe wrench is fused with high-level relics, it will gain new special effects.

He took out the Doomsday Dagger and connected the pipe wrench to it. With a flash of golden light, a brand new relic appeared.

【Sword of the End (unique):
[A long sword that can be freely extended or retracted. Both the blade and the handle can be extended or retracted. The longest length does not exceed 4 meters.]

[Special Effect 1: Prison of the Abyss: The life killed by this knife will be transformed into the Abyss race.]

[Special Effect 2: Merciful Destruction: When this ability is activated, this knife will only have the effect of breaking armor. It can break armor, protective films, clothing and other items below the legendary level with one strike.]

"After combining them, it finally transformed from a ritual sword into a weapon that can be used in combat."

Li Cheng held the hilt of the knife and smiled with satisfaction.

As a swordsman, he likes the shape of the Sword of the End very much.

The pure black blade exudes a cold light, and the silver handle is a minimalist design, but it has smooth curves.

This appearance is quite suitable for me.

The only abstract thing is that this thing is obviously a knife, but its name is a sword.

"Who should I use to test the knife?"

He was playing with the weapon in his hand and talking to himself, while secretly glancing out the window with the corner of his eye.

There, the elven princess was spying on him.

Regina had actually been outside the window for a long time.

In fact, she didn't come here intentionally to spy.

In other words, she wasn't snooping with malicious intent.

In the martial arts arena, she saw with her own eyes that Li Cheng made a contract with the demons to participate in the trial together and never give up.

This scared Regina.

Can the training of the demons be called a trial?

Are those the ten cruel tortures of the abyss that were thought up by the impure Minister of Justice?

Not to mention the demons, even if she were to go, she wouldn't be able to last for a few days, right?

Regina immediately became worried about Li Cheng's life safety.

As a knight, it is natural to worry about your lord.

She even thought that she could participate in training on behalf of Li Cheng, so she came to spy.

But he didn't expect that apart from seeing these Chu Sheng Dongxi people dividing the spoils, he saw nothing else.

The trial in that contract didn't exist at all.

In other words, although it was a contract drawn up by both parties, it did not impose any constraints on Li Cheng.

Regina breathed a sigh of relief when she first discovered the truth.

But the next second, she realized a horrible fact.

The technique Li Cheng used to sign the contract with the demons was the same one he used to sign the contract with her.

If this time, Li Cheng is not bound by the contract.

What about the time with myself?

In an instant, her hair stood on end and her scalp went numb.

Could it be that she was deceived?
There is no contract at all, it's just an illusion?
An illusion used to deceive and subdue myself?

A kind of anger called "betrayal" took root in Regina's heart.

She couldn't suppress or dispel that emotion.

Her mind flashed back to the past, memories that she was unwilling to face.

She wanted to attack Li Cheng immediately.

But at the critical moment, he forced himself to hold back.

Because in addition to anger, there is also a shock that touches the soul.

He can use illusions similar to the contract at will, and is accompanied by a group of guards whose strength is above level seven.

His own strength is also above that of the Fire Demon, and he can even disguise himself as a divine general.

Who is this guy?
Is he really an undercover agent like himself as he said?
Or is it that he is actually a big shot in the abyss?

Just making fun of yourself?
Or maybe, I am also a part of his plan.

He wants to attack the elves through himself?
No, I am no match for this guy. If I act rashly, I will accomplish nothing.

It's better to pretend nothing happened and wait and see what happens.

Just at this moment, Li Cheng's voice rang out: "Okay, Regina, you don't have to stand guard outside, come in."

At this moment, the Elf Princess was very grateful for her facial paralysis. If she didn't have it, she would not be able to hide the astonishment on her face.

Did he discover himself?

when?
What does this mean now?
Was he going to execute himself? Or was it just a literal meaning and I was overthinking it?

For a moment, the Elf Princess was at a loss as to what to do.

"What's going on, Regina? Is there anything going on out there?"

"No, no."

Li Cheng's urging brought the female knight back to reality. She gritted her teeth, opened the window and flew in.

And on the branch outside the window, a flying bird was struggling in a spider web.

It was a spider much larger than its body size, its terrifying compound eyes staring at it, and its scimitar-like arthropod legs playing a symphony of death on its web.

"You called me, lord."

"Yes." Li Cheng nodded and smiled warmly: "I heard that you elves are a race that is good at healing. My shoulders have been very sore these past few days. Can you please give me a massage?"

He said this and moved his shoulders.

"Um...massage, good..."

Regina nodded, walked behind Li Cheng, put her small hands on his shoulders and massaged them gently.

"Well, you can use a little more force." Li Cheng closed his eyes comfortably.

"Yes, my lord." Regina answered in a low voice, but her eyes drifted to Li Cheng's neck from time to time.

If we take action now, we might be able to make him lose his fighting ability with one blow.

that……

Want to take action?

This is truly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity...

An opportunity to directly defeat the traitor who deceived him.

After that, we can slowly interrogate him and try to find out his true identity.

Or just chop off his head and kill him with one blow?
But...is that woman still there?
Regina glanced at Li Cheng's shadow again without leaving a trace.

The guard named Ye Que had been hiding in Li Cheng's shadow before.

"Regina."

"Ah, what's wrong, my lord?"

The familiar voice came again, and the Elf Princess quickly answered.

"Are you nervous?"

"No, no." Regina tried to calm herself down: "This is my first time massaging the lord, so I might be a little nervous, hehe."

"Really? Your heart is beating very fast."

Li Cheng smiled, then slowly raised his head, and his eyes slowly turned red.

The next moment, red lasers were released from his eyes and shot straight towards Regina.

The attack came very suddenly, and the speed of the laser was extremely fast.

Regina was unable to dodge in time, and the laser pierced her shoulder blade, causing her left hand to droop limply.

"Damn it."

She quickly jumped back twice, covering her left arm with her right hand, and distanced herself from Li Cheng.

Beads of sweat covered his expressionless face.

“Ah, ah.” Li Cheng stretched lazily. “It’s my first time, so my aim is not very accurate. Sorry.”

"You..." Regina drew her knight's sword, and black wings grew from behind her, as if approaching her.

However, Li Cheng always had a playful smile on his face.

That's right, he was conducting a sting operation.

He deliberately let Regina see the contract between him and the demons.

After all, there's no telling how many times the power of the contract will be used in the future, and you can't deliberately send this woman away every time you use it, right?
Some things are better to be discussed earlier.

Otherwise, it will be like a time bomb, always a threat.

Besides, it's time for her to face reality.

"You bastard, you really are lying to me." Regina said coldly.

"You're overthinking this." Li Cheng spread his hands: "I do intend to help you rescue Rihanna."

"Don't call my sister's name with that stinky mouth of yours!" Regina roared, gripping the sword tightly and rushing forward.

At this moment, she has been exposed. If she chooses to escape, exposing her back to someone stronger than herself, it would be tantamount to seeking death.

Only by fighting hard can there be a chance of survival.

Li Cheng did not dodge, but just held the Sword of the End and looked at her playfully.

The wind was so swift and fierce that the tip of the female knight's sword created a cyclone that sucked the entire room into the tornado.

The sword energy that is comparable to the eighth-level strength is terrifying and horrifying.

Regina rushed to Li Cheng with an unstoppable determination to kill, and swung her sword down suddenly, and the sword tip turned into an afterimage.

“Ah! Die!”

next moment.

The imagined scene of Li Cheng being beheaded by her did not happen.

The tip of the knight's sword stopped less than five centimeters in front of Li Cheng.

Li Cheng still had a big boy's smile on his face.

But there was an unprecedented shock in Regina's eyes.

Her attack was not blocked.

But he stopped by himself.

At the moment when she was about to chop off Li Cheng's head, her soul trembled, and she felt an electric current flowing through her body. Then, the sword stopped.

The backlash from forcibly stopping the sword even broke her ribs.

But compared to the pain in the body, the scene before him was even more unbelievable.

"Is this... the oath of the contract? The contract has come into effect? ​​How... is it possible..." She stared at Li Cheng blankly: "Isn't that an illusion?"

"Haha, that's certainly not an illusion." Li Cheng smiled gently and raised the sword of the end in his hand: "The contract is just invalid for me."

His eyes turned cold and he swung his sword down with a swish.

It hit the female knight's armor straight on.

Just hear a click.

One after another, cracks appeared from the place where it was hit, like snowflakes, at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The next second, in front of Regina's stunned eyes, the armor turned into pieces and scattered all over the ground.

The white lining was exposed in front of Li Cheng, and the female knight fell to the ground with a snap.

This is not over yet.

Li Cheng raised the sword in his hand again and swung it out like a storm.

The Sword of the End, with its [Armor Breaking] special effect, slashed at Regina's clothes again and again.

And her lining was cut into strips in an instant and scattered on the ground.

The jade-white skin, exposed from the battle-damaged lining, looked particularly sacred under the glow of the moon.

And it makes you feel dry.

And in this series of blows, what was chopped into pieces was not only Regina's clothes, but also her dignity.

She collapsed to the ground, looking at Li Cheng, and what was reflected in her eyes was not the sunny and cheerful boy at all.

But a complete devil.

contract.

Whether it is prayer or magic, they are the most fair techniques in the Destiny Continent and even in the Abyss.

No matter if they are human or demon, strong or weak, or any form of life, once a contract is signed, they must abide by it.

Even if some strange and bizarre lives can come up with a way to set up word games in the contract to confuse all living beings, once they establish the contract, they must abide by the constraints of the contract.

All life respects the contract.

This is the law of fairness.

This is an equal exchange.

But now, the young man in front of her told her.

He doesn't have to abide by the contract.

The contract did not bind him in any way.

The only ones who are bound are his contractors.

Regina had never heard of anything like this.

Is he really the life of this world?

"Who... are you..." the Elf Princess murmured, trembling.

She clutched her cloth-wrapped, faltering chest.

Her instinct of shame made her want to stop Li Cheng from snooping.

But she immediately realized that her size was too big. She couldn't block anything and would also stimulate the boy in front of her.

So she moved her throat and fell to the ground.

It turns out that it seems that the butt can't be stopped again...

Not only is it unstoppable, it’s like sending out an invitation.

She turned back again, embarrassed.

"Well... generally speaking, in this situation, I suggest you cover your face." Li Cheng carried the Sword of the End on his shoulder.

"Covering your face, will it work?" Regina raised her head, a little confused.

"Well, it's just like turning off the lights. At least it won't make you feel so embarrassed." Li Cheng looked calm.

"..." Regina was silent for two seconds, but still obediently covered her face and made a shameful sound: "Gu, kill me."

"Hehe, why should I kill you?" Li Cheng smiled.

"Because... I want to kill you." Regina covered her face, her body shaking.

She always thought that she was a strong woman and had no fear of death.

But it was not until this moment, when death was really close to her, that she realized that those were just her imagination.

How is it possible to have life without fear of death?
"Oh, but you can't kill me, right?" Li Cheng squatted down and pinched her chin forcefully, admiring her expressionless face and the indescribable scenery below her neck:
"Regina, this is what I'm telling you. Don't do anything unnecessary. The knight's oath between you and me is still in effect. You can't resist me."

"Haha, yes, so just kill me..." There was already death in Regina's eyes.

I thought I had met a monarch from a chivalric novel. Unexpectedly, I met a scumbag among scumbags, a novice among novice.

"If you die like this, what will happen to your sister?" Li Cheng looked at her playfully.

"You... do you still want to use my sister to force me to work for you?" Regina raised her head suddenly.

"Hey, you're pretty smart." Li Cheng nodded seriously.

Regina: ...

"Haha, princess of the elves, have you ever thought about why I would attack you?" Li Cheng laughed again: "Logically speaking, since I know you are completely harmless to me, there is no need for me to do this, right?"

"Um... who, who knows what you are thinking, you bastard?" Regina turned her head to the side.

But Li Cheng would not indulge her, and twisted her back: "As for me, I deliberately let you see that I am not restricted by the contract, and deliberately let you attack me so that you know you can't do anything, but it's not to tease you."

"..." Regina stared at him without saying a word.

"As for me, I want to tell you that I am different from other people." Li Cheng lifted her chestnut hair: "I can do things that no one else can do. Your so-called common sense and conventions are like waste paper to me."

Regina's eyes showed struggle and panic.

Even if she doesn't want to admit it, this is the fact.

"The agreement between you and me is still valid. I can rescue your sister as long as I want. This is my promise."

"Why should I...believe you?" Regina's voice trembled a little.

"Do you have any choice? Do you want to count on your parents and your tribe to save her?" Li Cheng sneered: "After so many years, have they ever thought of this?"

"That's because..."

"Because you and your sister, although both are princesses, are not the daughters of the queen. You two are just the product that your father is unwilling to face." Li Cheng recited the setting book mercilessly: "Just the children of a woman who should not exist."

"Don't...don't say that..." Regina avoided his gaze.

"Oh, why don't you let me tell you? Regina, you should know it very well. Will the daughter of the queen come to the Abyss as an undercover agent?" Li Cheng grabbed her hair and smiled teasingly: "What kind of experiment will she do to lose the ability to laugh and cry?"

"Will you stay in this terrifying abyss for decades?"

"Stop it, please, stop it." Regina pinched her thighs hard to stop her body from trembling.

"Oh, Regina, have you ever thought about why you were completely unaware of your sister's arrival?" Li Cheng whispered in her ear:

"Why is it such a coincidence that your sister would run into the Abyss Army you are in?"

"You...you, you are talking nonsense, this is impossible, this is impossible!" Regina screamed, she even forgot to cover her body.

She had forgotten the so-called sense of shame.

"You know it very well, don't you? You've already guessed the answer." Li Cheng continued to talk, and the teasing on his face gradually turned into pity:

"Do you really hate me? Regina, do you really want to kill me just because I deceived you?"

"Or do I remind you of someone else?"

"Remembering the other person who betrayed you?"

"Remember your father?"

"Stop talking. I beg you, just kill me. Kill me, please?" Regina held her head high. Her expressionless face was already covered with tears. She lay on the ground and pounded her forehead against the ground, again and again. "I was wrong. I was really wrong."

"Why should I kill you? What did you do wrong?" Li Cheng held her back and wiped her tears carefully: "You did nothing wrong. You did everything your father asked you to do."

"It's never you who's wrong, it's your father."

"Not only did he kill your mother, he also sent you here and sent your sister to your blade."

"Do you know why?"

"I...I..." Regina shook her head. Her expressionless face actually showed a subtle expression, fine lines appeared at the corners of her eyes, and blue veins appeared on her forehead.

"Answer me, Regina, answer me, why!" Li Cheng suddenly raised his voice.

"I, I don't know, don't ask, I don't know..." Regina kept shaking her head, trying to escape.

"You know it, you've known it from the beginning, tell me!" Li Cheng pulled her over and put his forehead against hers: "Tell me!"

"Because... because... because of the throne... because of the throne of the elves..." Regina burst into tears: "Now the queen's father, the crown prince of the Court of Heaven's Destiny, is willing to let his daughter marry him and is willing to help him ascend the throne, but the price... is my mother and us."

"Why, why...why are you forcing me to say it?"

"Why would he do this to me, to my mother?"

"Why... do I have to have his blood flowing in my body?"

"Why, why! Why! Why! Why! Why! Why! Why! Why!"

Regina roared and screamed, her face was extremely hideous and had no beauty at all.

The face, which had lost the ability to make expressions due to the experiment, was torn apart by the exaggerated movements of the corners of the mouth and eyes.

"Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock."

Blood and tears are intertwined together, expressing the cries of the doomed in an inexplicable manner.

Like a river of the underworld flowing upstream.

It is like a roaring and erupting furnace volcano.

Li Cheng looked at Regina with compassion.

This is the truth behind Regina going crazy in the PC version.

In the deepest part of the outer city of Tianming Royal City, she not only lost her sister, but also the back of the crown prince with a limb graft.

I saw my mother's hands.

On that hand, she was still wearing the ring he gave her.

He is the father of her two children, he is the only person she has ever loved in this world, and he is the one who promised to take care of her for the rest of her life and never separate from her.

This is the truth of it all.

This is the time bomb that Li Cheng wants to defuse.

The bomb that drives Regina crazy.

"Come with me."

Li Cheng reached out his hand toward the wailing female knight.

Regina froze in place, and raised her head slowly and stiffly: "What do you want..."

"I want you." Li Cheng stared into her eyes, as if staring into the abyss: "All of you."

"Not Regina, the Elf Queen, not Regina, the Abyss Undercover, nor Regina, Rihanna's sister. It's just, Regina."

"Oh, me?" Regina pulled the corners of her mouth with her fingers and forced out a stiff smile like a clown: "Without what you said, what am I still? What else do I have?"

"I have nothing, and my life has no meaning at all."

"If you have no meaning in life." Li Cheng squatted down and stroked her head: "Then swing the sword for me."

"I will work with you to save your sister."

"I will join you in seeking revenge against the Heavenly Court that killed your mother, against your cowardly and power-hungry father, and against all those who have hurt you in this world."

"Revenge?" Regina held his hand, tears and blood streaming from her eyes. "Can I do it?"

"You can't do it, but we can."

He just said this while staring into Regina's eyes.

I didn’t know how much time had passed, maybe ten minutes, maybe one minute, or maybe one second.

The elf princess regained her usual calmness. She moaned and nodded: "Yes."

The corners of Li Cheng's mouth curled up, he clapped his hands, and the shadow moved with him.

Ye Que walked out and threw a black robe on her.

"What is this?" Regina pinched the robe and seemed to smell the fragrance of orchid.

"This is my gift to you, Miss Regina." Li Cheng smiled gently.

"From today on, you belong to the master." Ye Que snorted coldly: "Remember, if you do anything wrong to the master, I will kill you and your sister. I promise."

"Hmm..." Regina gripped the robe tightly and nodded slightly.

"Now, get out of here, don't stay here! The master wants to sleep!" Ye Que snorted again.

"Okay, I understand." Regina stood up, looked at Li Cheng again, then held the robe and walked out of the house.

Her delicate feet stepped on the fragments of armor, leaving cuts on them, but she ignored it all and continued to stagger forward.

Li Cheng knew that too much had happened to Regina tonight.

She was not ready to accept her new fate.

But Li Cheng was willing to give her this time.

What he needs is not a collaborator who wavers between his family and him, between loyalty and justice, but a subordinate who is completely loyal to him and willing to die for him.

Well, it’s best to have capable subordinates.

No matter how you look at it, Regina meets the attribute of being capable.

Although she still needs to be tamed and trained, Li Cheng believes that it won't be long before he can taste the feeling of the paralyzed female knight.

"Hmph." Nightbird stared at Regina's back, as if he had discovered something. He pretended to be indifferent and raised his toes a little: "Then Master, Nightbird will also take his leave."

Li Cheng looked at Ye Que with some amusement. He always felt that the tone of this half-demon girl seemed different from usual, a little more... sour.

"Is Nightbird unhappy?" he smiled playfully.

"Nightbird is very happy." The girl tilted her head.

"Hey, Ye Que, this is for you." Li Cheng suddenly took out a necklace from his arms and handed it to Ye Que.

"Nightbird works for the master and does not ask for anything in return." The half-demon girl quickly took a step back.

"It's not a reward, it's a gift." Li Cheng stepped forward, grabbed her wrist, and stuffed the necklace in. "I said before that you did a great job with the Wrathful Father, right?"

"Yeah." The girl under the hood blushed a little.

"But that was in front of outsiders, so I said that." Li Cheng pinched her face: "Now it's just the two of us, I have to say that it's too dangerous for you to do that, you know?"

“I…” The girl showed a very unconvinced expression, but she immediately suppressed it: “Ye Que knows.”

"You know what, you know." Li Cheng tapped her forehead again: "But I also know that you won't listen even if I tell you, so you wear this necklace."

"This thing is a relic of the detached type. It can be considered a means of preserving one's life. Do you understand?"

"Oh...thank you, master." Ye Que clenched the necklace tightly.

"Well, do you want me to bring it for you?" Li Cheng asked again.

"..."The night bird's cheeks suddenly puffed up like a hamster.

Then, she shook her head like a rattle, jumped lightly, and shrank back into the shadow.

But the hand holding the necklace never let go.

"Oh, you little tsundere."

Li Cheng muttered twice, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

The relic used for escape was stolen from Lille and its rating was not low.

However, Li Cheng has the ability to regenerate and recall, so he doesn't need that thing.

It is quite suitable to give it to Ye Que, a war maniac who is not afraid of his life.

He looked at the mess in the command room, shook his head and stretched.

I'm very tired tonight, it's time to go to bed.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk." Lilith floated beside him and smacked her lips: "Tonight, two women can't sleep."
-
In another tent, Miss Regina changed into a black tights and put on a wide robe.

This battle robe is double-layered, and various runes are placed on the tights inside. While being able to enhance physical fitness, it is also equipped with various elemental instant spells.

Just by looking at the effects of the runes and the number of spells, Regina knew how expensive this thing was and how extraordinary the skills of its maker were.

Not to mention the fabric that flows on it and can be continuously recycled.

The wide robe worn outside the tights was actually harder than the armor she had worn before, and there were many defensive spells on it that she had never seen before.

"Where on earth did this guy come from? Where on earth did this organization come from... Oh."

Regina sighed and removed her robe again, twisting her body in front of the dressing mirror, admiring her reflection.

Because of the tights she was wearing, her exaggerated certificate of strength, which was at least H-level, looked even more majestic.

The peach buttocks, which are no less in size than the proof of the strong, are obviously a good material for squats.

"Hey, I usually wear armor, and now I'm wearing this kind of clothes, so... so embarrassing..."

As she spoke, she inevitably recalled her experience in the command room.

The image of himself kneeling on the ground with his clothes torn to pieces kept flashing back in his mind.

"Damn it, you, if you want to talk, just say it nicely. Why do you have to... do this... just to tear apart all my disguises?"

"But, damn man...can't you just talk properly..."

Her cheeks were as red as the afterglow of the setting sun. She lay down on the bed awkwardly, holding the clothes in her arms, feeling extremely uneasy.

"Hmm...are we really going to follow him till the end?"

"Revenge on the Court of Heaven's Fate, on the elves, on my father..."

"Can you really do it..."

"Can I trust him?"

As she thought about this, several scenes from her childhood flashed back into her mind.

That was a clip of her and her sister living with their father and mother.

As soon as those clips appeared, Regina got a headache.

After enduring it silently for a few seconds, she clenched her fists and said, "Traitor..."

"Li Cheng, I hope you are different from him..."

"Forget it, let's not think about it for now. I can't resist him anyway. I'll just do whatever he says."

"In this case, even if he betrays me, I won't be so sad anymore."

She curled up her body, with a look of death in her eyes.

Just at this moment, she suddenly felt a slippery touch coming from her skin.

"Ah! W-What is this! Wait, ah!"

I saw that the tights on her body were dissolving little by little and becoming one with her body.

At the same time, a mysterious power penetrated into her body.

She could hear a familiar heartbeat and feel a familiar touch from that power.

That is……

Li Cheng's heartbeat.

"This is... these are... the power of regeneration? This power is called the power of regeneration? Is it... the power of Lord Li Cheng? Damn, it's so itchy..."

"Ominous Blade..."

"From today on, am I a member of the Ominous Blade?"

She opened her eyes again, her short chestnut hair turned snow-white, and her eyes turned into electric purple, just like when Li Cheng used the power of regeneration.

These visions only appeared briefly and then disappeared.

But in such a short period of time, her strength actually broke through the shackles of the eighth stage.

That was the shackles that troubled her for decades.

She tried her best and never loosened the boundaries.

Regina gasped for air.

She looked at her hands in disbelief and murmured to herself, her tone unconsciously filled with reverence: "This is... the gift you gave me?"

"damn it……"

"Are you..."

"Who is this?"
-
On the other hand, the last-ditch running training finally ended.

Since everyone had signed the contract, and because the few youngsters were practicing with the relics they had just obtained, the guards in the camp tonight were not as strict as they were last night.

Professor Nessp clenched his palms, which were shining with golden light, and quietly sneaked into the grass behind the camp.

Although he still looked like a young man, unlike the helpless look on his face in the morning, Nessp tonight had the arrogance of a superior in his brow.

The magic power in his body was not completely eliminated. Instead, it was free and condensed in front of him to form a layer of isolation that blocked the forbidden magic spell.

But as a price, the student possessed by him was having his body rotten.

He came to the grass and drew a magic circle on the lawn.

The next moment, a deep voice was heard.

If Li Cheng were here, he would be able to easily tell that the owner of the voice was none other than the Crown Prince who had his limbs reattached.

"What's going on? Why are you in the abyss?" The Crown Prince of Limb Reattachment wondered.

"That's a long story." Nesp said in a muffled voice, "Let's not talk about that. What's the matter? What do you want from me?"

"Heh, old man, you know what? Although our arrangement at Full Moon Academy went wrong last time, I met an interesting guy."

"Oh, interesting? You call the loss of two rank 8 guardians interesting?" Nesp said unhappily, "Besides, you didn't bring back Latania either. You should know that not only do you want her, but the Church of Order also wants her."

"That's weird. What does the Church of Order want her to do?" The Crown Prince wondered, "Didn't they deliberately leave her alive so that she could identify the murderer when necessary?"

"I don't know the details, but it seems that a very prestigious person in the Vatican has found clues to the massacre of the genocide." Nespu shook his head: "Forget it, tell me, what interesting thing did you encounter?"

"Haha, I met the Chosen One of Pain. Well, he is someone who can understand my great plan and my great thoughts. I have no doubt that he and I are rare confidants."

The words of the Crown Prince who had received limb reattachment revealed his irrepressible admiration.

Nespu was used to his attitude and asked with a frown, "God's Chosen One? Is he the Son of the Pain Cult?"

"No, no, no, he is the special one and is not in the sect." The Crown Prince of Limb Reconstruction chuckled: "His name is..."

"Hughes Dahl!"
