A group of people carefully leaned close to the mysterious blood-colored magic core suspended in mid-air. Only because they were in this place could they stay safe.
In addition, lightning strikes suddenly from time to time.
There is no pattern in the location where the lightning appears or where it hits. This is the result of the previous competition between Zhusha, Zidi and Ta Ling for the right to control the weather, and they eventually lost control.
The crowd was uneasy, and some people called out the names of Zidi or Zhusha, but there was no response.
"Damn it..." Zong Ge was among the crowd, frowning.
Even if he wasn't good at strategy, he felt very bad at this moment.
"Zhu Sha, the fight between Zidi seems to have subsided. Who won? Why is there no more movement?"
"Whoever wins, will they really come to our rescue?"
Zong Ge was worried about this, and many people had the same worries, but they had no choice, they were trapped here.
If you rush out, you are likely to be struck to death by lightning.
And they didn't dare to get too close to the blood core.
When the stand-in was unconscious, someone boldly tried to get the blood core, but when he got closer, he was irradiated by the blood light and turned into a pile of toner.
"What should we do?" Zong Ge glanced around.
The big man was unconscious.
The green beard lowers its head.
Three swords are confused.
Lan Zao knelt next to the body of the substitute, his eyes completely distracted. He once wholeheartedly wanted to follow the substitute, hoping to use the glory and character of the substitute to redeem himself for killing his own brother.
However, the revelation of the stand-in's identity made him realize that the person he had been following was just an impostor.
This fact hit him deeply and made him even more depressed.
The rest of the people remained silent, with serious expressions on their faces.
Many people sat on the ground in panic, holding their heads in their hands, seemingly giving up struggling, waiting for a result on the fourth floor.
At this moment, Zongge suddenly heard someone screaming, and the voice was full of panic.
Zong Ge's pupils shrank sharply, and he almost thought he was hallucinating. He actually saw the substitute slowly sitting up with his upper body.
"He, isn't he dead?"
"Alive! He's alive again?!"
"Zhen, Lord Zhenjin..." Lan Zhao's mouth opened wide. He was the closest to the double and was completely stunned.
But immediately, someone denied the title of Blue Algae: "No, he is not acupuncture! He is just a stand-in."
"You, are you a human or an undead?"
Everyone was shocked, and those sitting on the ground stood up one after another.
For a moment, everyone's eyes were focused on the young man.
The young man sighed, half-knelt on the ground, put his hands on his knees, and slowly stood up.
He looked around, his eyes making contact with everyone's eyes.
From the eyes of these people, he saw alertness, panic, doubt, worry, and many complex and unspeakable emotions.
The young man sighed again, sighing in his heart: "This moment has finally arrived."
In the past, people worshiped him, respected him, loved him, and were willing to follow him, but now everyone is more anxious and suspicious of him.
This is completely understandable.
Because he is not a gold needle, he deceived everyone. Even his resurrection from the dead was a scam that everyone witnessed with their own eyes!
Just as Zi Di regretted it very much, when Zhen Jin revealed his identity, the invisible losses were huge.
"He is actually alive! He was obviously struck to death by lightning before. Is it a fake death? Is he just supporting Zidi's hope?" Zhusha's expression changed slightly.
Of course, the situation on the third floor cannot be hidden from him.
With the resurrection of the substitute, Zhuo Sha's uneasiness immediately expanded, and he quickly informed Zhen Jin about the matter.
Zhen Jin was also shocked: "He can even resist lightning. What should he do if he charges up?"
"Steady him! I'm almost successful. As soon as the portal is formed, we will leave here with the artifact Mermaid's Fairy Tale. After we leave, there will be no remaining mana to support the new portal. These people are dead.
!" Zhusha sneered.
"Isn't there a mysterious crystal core on the third level?" a guardian knight asked.
Zhusha shook his head: "It's a pity, but we have no choice but to give it up. The lightning has been striking randomly, and the mana consumption is too great. We can't take away the mysterious magic crystal at all."
So, under the control of Zhu Sha, Zhen Jin's voice quickly came down: "Substitute! It's better if you live better, you are mine. Maybe you don't know your true identity yet, but in fact, I am Zhen Jin."
Jin. As long as you continue to be loyal to me, I swear on the honor of my nobles that I will forgive you and give you a chance to survive and make achievements."
The stand-in boy raised his eyes to look at the fourth floor, his face became slightly serious: "So, Zidi failed, and you sided with Zhusha?"
Zhen Jin's heart was shocked and he opened his mouth wide. He couldn't understand for a moment how the substitute could detect the situation on the fourth floor in an instant.
He was about to deny it, but then the substitute spoke: "If Zidi has the upper hand, she will speak out on her own instead of arranging for you to speak."
After pondering for a moment, the substitute continued: "She can't even make a sound now. I'm afraid she's dead."
Zhen Jin glanced at the girl in a pool of blood at his feet, and was about to reject the substitute's guess, but Zhu Sha interrupted: "She is not far from death. However, she still has a chance to survive, as long as you cooperate.
"
"Cooperate?" The substitute boy smiled and raised his brows, "How do you ask me to cooperate with you? Do you want me to kill these people so that all the credit goes to you?"
Everyone was suddenly startled and started to stir slightly. Many people took a step back, with more fear and wariness in their eyes.
Of course Zhusha was not fooled. He laughed and said, "You don't have to instigate me. I am a priest and I will do my best to take them away from here. I need your cooperation. I just want you to calm down and see the situation clearly."
"Zidi has passed out. I am the only one left here who can control the authority and form a portal."
"You have already lost, there is no need to have other thoughts."
"You are indeed guilty, but the crime does not lead to death. The more sinful crime lies not with you, but with Zi Di. In essence, you are just a chess piece that was deceived."
"You don't believe that you don't hate Zidi."
"She deceived you and made you work for her willingly. Although this woman is young, she knows people's hearts well, is cunning and vicious, and is extremely dangerous."
"She is the president of the Wisteria Chamber of Commerce. The Wisteria Chamber of Commerce was annexed by many nobles in the empire. She is dissatisfied with the empire. Her anger for revenge makes her lose her mind. Playing with fire will inevitably lead to self-immolation."
"If you still stand on her side and become our enemy, you are standing against the Templars and the Emperor of the Empire. This is very unwise."
"You just guessed the situation on the fourth floor based on Zhen Jin's words. This is enough to prove that you are a smart young man."
"Do you remember when you confessed to me?"
"Young man, I know you have a good heart and yearn for light deep in your heart."
"You are guilty, that cannot be denied."
"But the road to salvation is at your feet, as long as you are willing to go and choose to go."
"In the name of the priest, I promise to redeem you. But the real redemption lies in you. You should be very clear about this truth."
The young man chuckled: "So... you are scared?"
"I came back from the dead so that you can't discover my reality, so you want to stabilize me?"
"You seem to have lost control over the weather. If you could strike down lightning, you wouldn't hesitate at all, just like you did when you struck me to death."
Zhuo Sha sternly said: "Young man, you overestimate yourself. Don't be too clever but you will be fooled by your cleverness! I attacked you before because you were trying to rush to the fourth floor. It was obvious that you had evil intentions and were going to be detrimental to us..."
But before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by the young man: "So, you found that you can't kill me, so you want to stabilize me temporarily?"
"Isn't your divine power not enough? Your condition must be very bad, right?"
"Now that the monsters no longer pose a threat, you did not use magic to deal with me. Instead, you wanted to stabilize me. Are you trying to delay time, secretly open the portal, and escape with the artifact?"
"You don't seem to be worried about me chasing after you... Could it be that the mana in the mana pool is no longer enough to open the second portal? Yes, after all, the lightning has been striking for such a long time, and the small mana must have been consumed again.
A lot."
Hearing the young man's guess, the people around him became commotion again.
Chasha's face turned livid: "Young man, I am thinking about you. If you want, just rush up. The lightning along the way may make you taste death again. Even if not, you will only be able to reach the fourth floor if you reach the fourth floor."
You threw yourself into the trap and received a 'warm welcome' from us. But if you choose to believe me and choose the path of salvation, you will probably get a longer life and a brighter future."
"Haha." The young man sneered, "You want me to believe you? How can I believe it? Just before, you killed me. And even longer ago, you would rather give away the artifact first than our companions along the way."
"I will kill you, but it won't be just me."
After speaking, the young man looked at the crowd around him.
Everyone looked at him warily without any reaction.
