The war ghost said: "Haha, this is proof that your mercenary blood has penetrated deep into your bones."
"The blood of the Orlando clan warriors flowing in your body is exactly the so-called karma."
"But Randy, why haven't you woke up yet? Why do you pretend to live such a stable life?"
"This is your last chance. Randy should inherit the position of God of Fighting. As for your shortcomings, I will replace your elder brother and teach you well." Zhan Gui said.
"When you become the true leader of the Red Constellation, you can help the humans you want to help at will." Zhan Gui said.
"Haha, of course, it's okay even if you want to help Crossbell." Zhan Gui said: "No matter how things develop this time, Crossbell will have to face a bleak and troubled future."
"Even if it's for your companions, you should make the right choice."
Lloyd: "Damn it."
Tio: "You are so good at taking advantage of others' danger."
"I see, you can still stay calm and use reasonable words to convince me at this time," Randy said.
"As expected of a red war ghost."
"This is the basis of survival for mercenaries, I think you should also know it very well." Zhan Gui said.
"The era of peace has gone and will never return. Now even if you want to continue to resist, you have no place to stand." Zhan Gui said.
"In this case, is there any need to continue to hesitate?"
"Maybe you're right." Randy said: 'But my answer is NO.'
"oh?"
"It seems that your unscrupulous nephew has completely gone astray." Randy said: "He pursues peace in such an era and seeks justice in a world full of deceit."
"And he is neither romantic nor fantasy-he just works hard with his companions to do what he can."
"And thus found his own foothold."
Dudley: "Huh, what a shameless statement."
"With this as a place to stand, I can fight against my own karma. I want to say goodbye to my nostalgic battlefield career and the self who can only live as Shura."
This is what I want to end."
"We will see it through to the end," Lloyd said.
War Ghost: "Hmph, hahahaha, are you done with your nonsense?"
Dudley: "There is such a strong fighting spirit."
"In this case, I recognize the resistance you launched on that fragile footing." Zhan Gui said: "However, you should understand that since you have spoken so firmly, I cannot continue to fight against you.
You showed mercy."
Randy: "Well, I wish I could have it. I bet my father and the combat skills you taught me, and I will beat you, the strongest mercenary, to a pulp/
"Haha, interesting." Zhan Gui said: "In that case, I will devour you and inherit the position of God of War myself."
"This is also the only sacrifice I can give to my eldest brother who gave birth to a useless son. Come and take the fight and taste the unparalleled battle of my red war ghost.
The battle became more and more stalemate, and the war ghosts gradually became invincible.
"Haha, I didn't expect you to fight so hard with such a foothold." Zhan Gui: "But this is also your current strength."
"Yes, I'm sorry. I have to carry out my belief to the end. No matter what, I will still be very sorry for you and dad." Randy said.
"Haha, now that things have come to this point, why bother talking about this anymore? Besides, if you don't make a break and continue to drift along with the crowd, that would be the most sorry thing for us."
Zhan Gui said: "Although I never mentioned it, my eldest brother has always been worried."
"Really, Dad." Randy said.
"Haha, but if I see you in this state, my eldest brother should be a little pleased." Zhan Gui said.
"Whether your tenacious belief can be carried out to the end, you can prove it to us with your future life."
After breaking through the war ghost, Lloyd and others sent the war ghost back to the airship and came to the realm of the ring.
Waiting for Lloyd and others at the deepest level is Saint Arios, the Sword of Wind.
"You're here." Arios said.
Lloyd; "Mr. Arios."
"Aren't you wearing that white suit anymore?" Randy said.
"Although Mr. Croois sincerely invites you, it is still too reluctant for me." Arios said.
"Now that the declaration of invalidity has been issued, I am no longer qualified to wear that suit of clothes."
"Today, I am neither a guerrilla nor a garrison. What I stand here is just a wandering swordsman."
"Arios," Dudley said.
"Why are you like this?" Ellie said.
Tio: "It's too old-fashioned."
"Haha, I really can't help it. There are so many things I want to ask, and I can't understand my thoughts for a while, but can we check the answers first?" Lloyd said.
"Okay, I originally had this plan, just ask, I can answer everything except one thing." Arios said.
"Well, I'm sorry to have to mention your sad past. Can you tell us the inside story of the accident five years ago?" Lloyd said.
"Well, there is no need to hide it now. The transport truck accident occurred on the avenue five years ago. As you know, it was the result of the secret war between the Empire and Smith.
Haha, Dudley, you have grasped this fact a long time ago, right? But because the superiors had concerns about the Empire and Smith, they suppressed this matter as a matter of course.
Although I am disappointed with this, I have no resentment now."
Dudley: "I'm sorry."
Tio: "That's why Arios-san's wife and Xiaoyu will."
"Yes, Sha Ling lost his life, and Xiao Yu became blind." Arios said: "Since then, the empire and Smith institutions have become more and more perfect, and unnecessary sabotage has disappeared."
"But during the decades-long Cold War, there have been many victims like my wife, including your parents and Ian's family, Lloyd."
Lloyd: "What!"
Ellie: "Lloyd's parents."
Tio: "This is the first time I heard of it."
"My parents died in an accident fifteen years ago when the airship was first put into operation." Lloyd said, "But when I first became sensible, I barely left any impression. That is to say, Ian's family was also there.
that time?"
"Well, his wife and children also took that airship." Arios said: "At least I still have Xiao Yu, but he lost everything. The pain is beyond my imagination."
"In addition, Kai and Ian met as family members of the victims at that time."
"Such a thing actually exists." El said.
"This is information that no one has mastered," Dudley said.
"I joined the Guerrilla Association after that incident five years ago." Arios: "There were many reasons for this decision, such as disappointment, Xiaoyu's hospitalization expenses, etc."
"But in fact, I may just want to escape the sadness of losing Sha Ling, which is why I plunge into endless guerrilla work."
"One thing I have always had a question about is why do you have contact with Mr. Dieter and the others?" Lloyd said.
"Oh?" Arios said.
"Although Dieter, Maria, and the Croois family are very powerful," Ellie said.
"But it would be weird if we even knew this about the Cold War," Randy said.
Theo: "The two parties were originally unrelated, but Mr. Dieter appointed Mr. Arios after he took office."
Dudley: "I see, that's it. That means the person who connected them is Ian."
Lloyd; "Well, Mr. Arios, that's right?"
"Haha, that's right." Arios said: "Like you, Kai and I are always under the care of Ian when we are working, and the information he provides has been of great help to us."
"When suppressing the DG stronghold, Ian also provided us with assistance as an advisor."
"After I became a guerrilla, I still frequently exchanged information with him." Arios said, "And Ian also has a close relationship with the Croiss and his daughter."
"So, all the information was gathered in the hands of Ian. It was under Ian's guidance that Mr. Dieter successfully achieved Crossbell's current situation through work and the power of the treasure."
Arios said: "But he didn't know that Mr. Ian and Miss Maria had been secretly advancing their real plan."
Lloyd; "What's the real plan?"
"Plan Bi-Ling?" Ellie said.
"Yes, Ian quickly realized the truth behind the accident, so he explained the situation to me, and I decided to help them complete such a plan." Arios: "This is the whole story."
Tio: "Everything is under the control of Ian and Maria."
Randy said, 'It's amazing.'
"Then you were the one who brought Kia out from the underground of the Tower of the Sun, right?" Lloyd said, "And you should also be the one who swapped her with the dolls that are expected to be auctioned, right?"
Ellie: "Come to think of it, I still don't understand this issue."
"Yes, that's true, but the person in charge of this matter is Miss Maria. She seems to have completely grasped Achim's movements, relying on her teleportation technique.
We easily reached the altar at the bottom and released the child from the cradle," Arios said.
"Then I took the child and the doll sent from Remifilia out of the bag. The doll was also prepared by Miss Maria. The purpose was to avoid letting the people of Lubache find out the clues."
"You actually even considered this kind of thing." Ellie said.
"But what does this behavior mean to Miss Maria?" Lloyd said.
"If they need Kia to carry out their plan, can they just keep her under guard?"
Arios: “One of the reasons is to involve Black Moon in order to disgrace Lubach and take the first step towards self-destruction.
If the child wakes up suddenly, Miss Maria will definitely take action. I think she will mention the name of IBC in front of the surprised guests and President Lubach, so as to accept the child."
"If Black Moon had taken action at that time, the situation might have been different, but I was also hiding in the mansion at that time. No matter how things develop, we are enough to control the entire situation."
"How should I put it? They were so well prepared," Randy said.
Tio: "The plan is so thorough."
"And another reason is to let the treasure wake up under that special situation so as to confirm her potential ability."
Tio said: "What does this mean?"
"I don't know, that's all Maria said. That kind of environment may be one of the conditions for the child to wake up from his long sleep."
Arios said: "In any case, I don't know whether it is the relationship between the goddess or a simple coincidence, but she woke up in front of you."
"For Miss Maria, this is something beyond expectation, but she doesn't mind at all that the child is adopted by you and lives with you."
Randy: “I really don’t understand.”
Ellie: "What on earth is Maria going to do?"
Lloyd: "So, can you tell me the truth about the day my eldest brother died?"
Arios said: "Okay."
"After my wife passed away, I joined the Guerrilla Association, and after the New Year, I participated in Ian's plan and completed several tasks.
It's all an ulterior conspiracy, but no one, including the people in the association, was aware of the situation."
Arios said: "The only exception is my former partner Kai, who relied on his amazing intuition and tenacious perseverance to get close to the core of various conspiracies and secrets.
The secret war between the empire and Smith, the movements of Lubache and DG, and even the plans of the Croois family hidden behind the scenes...
On that rainy day, Kai called me to the construction site of the Orchid Tower, which had just started at that time. Of course, Kai did not know the details of the plan.
But his speculations were truly astonishing, and he basically grasped the entire plan, including the plans of the Croois family, and even the Croois family's plan to use something to suppress it.
It was unbelievable, and I started fighting with him because Kai didn't accept my advice to just let it go."
"In the process of fighting, I was originally stronger, but Kai also burst out with amazing strength. We fought for dozens of times, constantly consuming each other's physical strength, and continued fighting to the death in the rain. Finally."
"He was killed. Of course I was the one who took his weapon away from the scene, because I didn't want others to identify the prisoner based on the countless knife marks on the weapon," Arios said.
El; "Such a thing actually exists."
Arios: "This is what happened on that rainy day. The members of Lubache showed up and took away Kai's badge. This was beyond my expectation."
"Anyway, your question has been basically explained, right?"
Lloyd: "No, you must also know that my brother's death was not caused by a knife wound, but a wound on the back."
"You haven't explained this yet, have you?" (To be continued)
