Chapter 409 It seems to be another dead end(1/2)
There is something indescribably weird about this scene.
Ten decrepit old men surrounded the young and strong Caesar. On the ground were complicated words and an alchemical circle depicted in dragon inscriptions.
Lu Mingfei noticed that the ten elders had fallen into a strange state of sleep.
He stood aside and glanced coldly at the dragon inscriptions engraved on the ground, taking in all of them. He already knew the purpose of this alchemy circle when he saw it halfway.
As expected, it is an alchemy circle that integrates "replacement" and "forbidden".
There are a total of twelve positions around it, and it seems that they want to share the sacrifice sitting in the center.
I don’t even want to guess who the sacrifice is.
At this moment, he saw through the plot of the Gattuso family, or rather the plot of these twelve people.
Oh, there are only ten people left now.
They seemed to want to use this alchemical circle to carve up Caesar, who had successfully replaced the Black Queen.
Of course, there are some detailed issues, for example, it was not Caesar who was sacrificed in the previous life, and it doesn’t matter who it is, and the final result is not shared, but exclusive to one person.
Lu Mingfei glanced at the entire alchemy circle again, and found the "flaw" as he had guessed.
Once the alchemy circle is started, it cannot be stopped. No one can temporarily escape from their position. However, changing a certain place can add another "imprisonment" to the alchemy circle. What is imprisoned is not the sacrifice in the middle.
It's the eleven companions around him.
Send the sacrifice to the master, then activate the magic circle to imprison the surrounding companions, and the last person will swallow the supreme power.
Very calculating and very patient.
At this point, he is no longer a human being, nor is he a dragon. All his morals and ethics have been thrown away, and what is left is ambition that will devour him.
The only doubt is where the Black King's power they obtained came from.
It couldn't be that egg, because Frisis had already awakened, and the egg contained his dragon body embryo, but it didn't have the most important soul source power.
Lu Mingfei still needs to take another look at this point.
In addition, the Gattuso family in this life is destined to fail, but it is not because of his arrival.
Lu Mingfei took a deep breath, as if he could smell someone's scent left here.
Someone in this life understood everything in advance, sneaked into this place when no one was aware, and quietly changed the alchemy circle, making everyone a sacrifice.
He is none other than Lu Mingze.
What did he want to do? Lu Mingfei could already guess it.
Now the last and most critical step was right in front of him.
No wonder he wanted to come and see the Gattuso family himself.
But how did he know? Sure enough, he was the one who understood the little devil best.
But what should they do next?
He tried to ask the guy who was pretending to sleep in his mind, but as if to prove the saying that you can never wake up a person who is pretending to sleep, Big Brother just pretended not to hear.
Lu Mingfei smiled bitterly. He knew that this guy didn't hear anything, but he just showed a clear attitude - everything is up to you.
This guy has had this attitude since a long time ago.
Prosperity or destruction, everything is up to you.
He doesn't care, doesn't want to care, and doesn't even bother to listen. If you want to force him to make a choice and interfere, you can give him a reason first.
Last time in Tokyo, Lu Mingfei used Sakurai Akira as a bet and set up a bet with him, forcing him to finally take action.
But in fact, Lu Mingfei didn't win or lose that bet. He just gave his other self a reason to take action.
"You know that guy's temper and character. If you and I don't stop him, he will really go down this path without hesitation."
"Isn't it enough to say that it's about Narusawa?"
"I can't refuse him on this matter. Only you can. He dug a hole for me in my last life..."
Lu Mingfei continued to say in his heart, but was suddenly startled.
Their covenant was signed in the last life. It seems that he guessed wrong. Not only did Narusawa find the woman in the previous life, but the woman also found Narusawa. Together, they decided today's ending.
"Are you serious that you want to see him follow our old path?" Lu Mingfei was rarely angry in his heart. The bronze wind chime seemed to feel his anger and swayed slightly.
The man on the throne slowly opened his eyes amid the sound of wind chimes.
But this time, the bronze door of the temple did not open, nor did the wind carrying the fragrance of flowers blow from the distance.
【What reason do you have to stop him? 】
"We are his brothers, isn't this reason enough?" Lu Mingfei said angrily, the world is so big, how can there be any reason to say "bloodline"?
[We did the same thing back then, so what position do you have to reject him? 】
Lu Mingfei's heart sank. This was exactly what he had been thinking about before.
What is Lu Mingze going to do? Naturally, he is to replace his brother and do something that needs to be done, just like what the woman who calls herself a god has been looking forward to.
Back then, they concealed it from everyone and suppressed the riots in the Elemental Sea alone, but now Lu Mingze also chose to end it all by himself.
What he did was actually what they were doing back then.
It's just that they still failed back then, but Lu Mingze is still uncertain.
"Listen, there are some things for which we don't need to be reasonable or reasonable." Lu Mingfei said every word. "We are his brothers. If we say no, it means no. There are not so many positions and reasons.
!”
Faced with his unreasonableness, the man on the throne just threw out a reality indifferently.
【So, who will end the final cycle of calamity? 】
Lu Mingfei remained silent on the spot.
They rejected the woman's proposal and were unwilling to let Lu Mingze take their place, so who would end up calming down the riots in the Elemental Sea?
They can use emotions to avoid many things, but they cannot escape reality.
Someone has to solve the problem. They didn't want to make a choice, so the woman found Mingze.
Sometimes things are so simple that no matter how much you scream, they won't change at all.
Lu Mingfei wanted to say, "Are we just going to watch him go down the wrong path?".
But he still didn't say anything.
What is wrong and what is right?
He still didn't figure it out like that night, but at this moment he vaguely figured out another fact - he seemed to be swallowed up by his own greed.
He greedily wanted to seize everything, but the reality was just as Lu Mingze said that day, they couldn't seize everything, they had to make compromises, concessions, and the final choice.
All they can do is make choices that are more beneficial to themselves.
Lu Mingze made a choice.
But he has yet to make a choice.
But how should he make a choice?
He can't sacrifice himself to become the world because he doesn't want to let go of this world and the people in it.
And now someone is willing to make sacrifices for them, but this person is one of the people he doesn't want to lose.
The world was always so cruel, so cruel that he wished he could crush it with his own hands.
But the world is so beautiful because they are still by his side.
Lu Mingfei stood there in a daze for a long time. He could not give an answer. He could neither convince Big Brother nor himself.
It turns out that for them, there is still a "dead end" in this world.
Big Brother closed his eyes again, as if he had anticipated the current situation.
Lu Mingfei, exhausted, stepped forward to wake up Caesar who was sleeping with his eyes closed.
"Lu Mingfei, you are...I..."
Caesar shook his head to regain his clarity, and then he remembered what he had experienced in the past few days.
He glanced around at the sleeping old people around him, his eyes fell on Lu Mingfei, and he smiled bitterly: "How many days have I been down?"
"It's almost the third day since you returned home."
"That's it. No wonder you came here." Caesar took a deep breath and stood up with force. The dragon's blood quickly dispelled the numbness in his legs. "Is the situation in the academy okay?"
"Nothing happened for the time being. But you, what's the situation now? Did they attack you?"
"No." Caesar shook his head and said after a moment of silence, "Guess what I've seen these days."
"What did you see?" Lu Mingfei looked at the alchemy formation below again in confusion. This formation should not have the ability to awaken the memory inherited in the blood.
"It has nothing to do with the alchemy circle." Caesar said softly, "In the words of these old guys, I chose this place just because no one will bother me."
He looked a little tired, but his eyes were shining, as if he had seen something exciting not long ago.
