"What? Ine Lily intervened?"
After hearing Lafana's report, Abyssal One's originally relaxed expression suddenly turned serious.
Because he knows very well that since the battle against Teresa ten years ago, the organization has not only lost the strongest No. 1 in history, but also No. 2 Priscilla has awakened to become a terrifying monster that transcends the previous three abyss.
In addition, No.3, No.4 and No.5 who participated in the crusade team at that time also rebelled and joined Western Lands to accept the protection of Allen.
This also means that Ine Lily's sudden appearance is most likely under the instruction of Allen.
Thinking that ten years ago, Allen had very close contact with Teresa, and Clare had very special feelings for Teresa. Abyssal One had enough reason to suspect that there might be secrets that some organizations did not know.
Although on the surface, Western Lands is an ally to the organization.
But these so-called "allies" are essentially using each other and scheming against each other. It is completely normal to stab them in the back when the time comes.
In fact, since realizing how terrifying the personal strength of the two sudden "outsiders" Allen and Artoria is, the organization has been trying to find a force that can fight against them.
For this reason, they once tried to kidnap people who were favored by Holy Light, and then researched and transformed them.
As a result, before anything could be found, the terrifying Holy Light energy suddenly erupted, directly razing the entire Secret Base to the ground. All participants died without exception.
Since then, the top management of the organization has never dared to mention any research related to Holy Light.
Because everyone knows that this Holy Light outbreak is a naked and unabashed warning.
If the high-level officials dare to extend their hands again, they will inevitably suffer violent retaliation.
And this kind of revenge is something the organization simply cannot afford at this stage.
Seeing the solemn expression on Abyssal One's face, Lafana quickly nodded hard. "Yes! I clearly observed Ine Lily releasing Yoki and using her The best technique - High-Speed Sword, directly kills the awakened Ophelia. That guy's strength now feels unfathomable, I think she should have reached a level close to the abyss."
You don't need to ask to know that Ine Lily's last sword made her feel unprecedented danger, as if she was locked by some invisible force. No matter how far she escaped, she would be cut in half instantly.
"Abyss... you mean, Ine Lily can be fully awakened like Arisia and Bixi?" Abyssal One touched his chin and asked in an uncertain tone.
Although with the popularity of Life Energy in the new generation of Claymore, you will occasionally encounter one or two determined Warrior who can avoid losing their minds after awakening, but generally speaking, this state is not very stable.
You may be able to change back after being fully awakened for the first time, but not necessarily the second, third, or fourth time.
After all, human will changes with changes in emotion and mood, and is not as stable as Dark Twin Plan.
The most important thing is that being able to control awakening often has nothing to do with talent or potential, but simply a strong spirit and will.
Even if Warrior, ranked after No. 10, is awakened, it doesn't mean much in the eyes of the organization's top management. At best, it is just a high-level cannon fodder.
Abyssal One suspects that Allen may have really mastered the technology of mass manufacturing controllable Awakened Beings.
"Sorry, I haven't tried it, and I don't know for the time being. But the principle of High-Speed Sword is to completely release the demon power in one hand, and then use consciousness to suppress the violent arm. In order to do this, Ine Lily has developed the ability to be calm and even She has an indifferent character. But this time, I found that when she swung the sword, she no longer suppressed her awakened arm, but deliberately pushed it beyond the limit in order to increase her High-Speed Sword's power," Lafana explained patiently.
Although she was quite far away from the battle site at the time, she could still "see" the entire battle with her powerful Yoki perception ability.
Ine Lily exuded Yoki who was both violent and not out of control, which left a very deep impression on her.
A thoughtful look appeared on Abyssal One's face, and he ordered, "Okay, I understand. You continue to stare at Clare to ensure that she does not leave the organization's sight. Oh, by the way, what about the boy who has been following her?"
"I don't know. There was no Yoki on that boy, and I was too far away at the time, so I didn't know his condition at all. If nothing else, he should still be following Clare..." Lafana gave an ambiguous answer.
After all, Laki's presence has never been high. Except for the black Sword of Desire in his hand, his only value in the eyes of the organization is to control Clare.
"Pay more attention to the sword in the boy's hand. The higher-ups are very interested in this weapon and will steal it or grab it if it's convenient. It may help us play an important role in the upcoming war."
After saying these words, Abyssal One ignored Lafana, put on his hood to cover his face, turned around and disappeared deep into the dark forest.
It has to be said that although these Abyssal One in the organization are very poor in personal strength, they are really courageous.
I often dare to wander around the wilderness alone without fear of encountering bandits or wild beasts.
Especially large beasts, they don't care whether you are part of the organization or whether you will be retaliated against later. They only care about whether they can fill their stomachs.
Watching Abyssal One walk away, Lafana quickly turned around and ran in the other direction, intending to see what would happen between Ine Lily and Clare.
At the same time, near a cliff waterfall about ten kilometers away from the burial place of Ophelia, Ine Lily had stopped and looked at the little girl who was just following Teresa ten years ago with eyes without any emotion.
After a full minute, she said, "You should already know all the secrets about Life Energy, right?"
"Yeah! Yes! I already know." Clare replied in the affirmative without thinking.
"Then tell me, what are you afraid of? Why didn't you release all your Yoki in the battle just now?" Ine Lily asked with a frown.
In her opinion, since she has mastered all the secrets of Life Energy, there is no big problem even if she is fully awakened. She can change back after the battle is over.
Of course, there will still be some side effects.
For example, every time after fully awakening, the desire will be high for a long time after returning to human form, but it is always better than being killed by the enemy.
Clare smiled bitterly and replied, "I'm sorry, it's not that I don't want to, it's that I can't do it."
"Can't do it?" Ine Lily frowned even more instantly.
"Although I already know all the secrets of Life Energy, when I think about Teresa, I can't control my emotions. I can't guarantee that I won't turn into a complete monster when I fully release my demonic power."
While saying these words, Clare subconsciously touched his belly.
If you want to resist the intense pleasure and physical impact at the moment of awakening, you must ensure that your spirit and will are flawless.
Otherwise, even if there is only a small gap, it will be magnified by Infinity in an instant, and ultimately the result will fall short.
"I see... I understand. Since you can't fully realize your potential, then learn from me High-Speed Sword first. This is also what Allen means. Because you are too weak now. It is impossible to survive the upcoming fierce war. If you add the difference in the upper limit of Yoki and Life Energy, you will not even be able to hurt the more powerful Awakened Beings."
After saying that, Ine Lily slowly put his hand on the hilt of the sword and completed a sword swing at a speed that could not be captured by the naked eye.
When Clare reacted, he found that there was an extremely small opening on his cheek at some point, and red blood slowly flowed out from the wound.
There is no doubt that this sword attack was intentional.
Ine Lily is demonstrating his absolutely terrifying control over High-Speed Sword.
You must know that when she fought Teresa ten years ago, she was far from being able to do this. High-speed slashes would even affect surrounding buildings and objects during the battle.
But now, ten years later, I can actually scratch just one layer of oily skin.
"You... how did you do it?!" Clare asked in shock.
"It's very simple! This is my own unique ability that I developed from Life Energy. You may not be able to control High-Speed Sword as accurately as me, but you should still be able to learn two or three points. In addition, with the Yoki perception you inherited from Teresa, you should already understand the principle of High-Speed Sword, right? Now try to attack it!"
As the last word blurted out, Ine Lily and Clare drew their swords almost at the same time and started a fierce battle next to the waterfall.
In just a few seconds, the two Claymores made hundreds of piercing sounds, and the golden Hanabis scattered in all directions.
It's just that compared to Ine Lily, who can control every sword to the right advantage, Clare's sword is much more messy, and some even hit the nearby trees and rocks.
In this way, the two of them chatted and chatted, sometimes resting and eating, sometimes discussing matters that need to be paid attention to in practicing High-Speed Sword.
They had no idea that during the time they were training in seclusion, the outside world had undergone earth-shaking changes.
Northern Lands Isley, who had been silent for a period of time, finally refused to be lonely and began to send out his Awakened Beings in batches, and began to wreak havoc in the central and eastern areas of the island, and even took the initiative to hunt down the lone Claymore.
In just one month, Warrior, who was ranked 20th in the organization, was dead.
The rookies who had just been recruited from the training camp were simply unable to adapt to such high-intensity battles. They awakened and went berserk uncontrollably, making the already chaotic situation even more uncontrollable.
Looking at the death or awakening reports one after another, the top management of the organization finally became unable to sit still.
Leader Lemoto took a deep breath, raised his head and said in a gloomy tone, "We can't wait any longer. Let Dark Twins attack!"
"I object! Showing your trump card before any action has been taken in the three abyss. This is the stupidest behavior." Another senior executive stood up suddenly.
Since the organization is a scientific research institution affiliated to a country in mainland China, the rights structure is not clear-cut.
The so-called leader is actually just coordinating and planning. If there are too many people who oppose a certain decision, they cannot force it forward.
"But we have no time to wait any longer. Do you know that those Awakened Beings are deliberately using torture and other methods to force our Warrior to awaken? From the beginning of the war to now, the number of Awakened Beings has not declined, but has increased. Although some Warrior did not choose to surrender to the enemy after awakening, they are also potential threats." Lemoto retorted sharply.
"What does the life and death of those indigenous people have to do with us? Ensuring the existence of the organization is the most important thing!" The senior executive who spoke before slammed the table angrily.
"Lulu, haven't you been in contact with Allen, the lord of Western Lands, before? If all three northern Abysses go south, will he stand up and help us?" Dae suddenly interjected.
Lulu pretended to be bitter and shook his head. "No! No! Unless we meet his demands, he will watch the organization collapse, and then he will kill all Awakened Beings and Abyss."
"Damn it! We have signed an agreement!" Another senior executive cursed in a low voice through gritted teeth.
"Yes! We did sign an agreement. But the problem is that when the Holy City war broke out, the organization did not fulfill its obligations as an ally. So now he has an excuse not to fulfill the agreement." Lulu shrugged with a helpless look.
"Then how can he be willing to help us? Or what are the conditions for him to take action?" Lemoto narrowed his eyes and asked.
"He wants to know some secrets within the organization. For example, the parasite that emerged from the belly of No. 46 Elina." Lulu dished out some details of the transaction, half truthfully and half falsely.
Of course, he didn't expect the top management to tell him these secrets. He just wanted to find out how important these researches were within the organization and how many people knew about them.
"Parasite? What is that?"
One Abyssal One showed a puzzled expression.
Before Lulu could explain, Dae immediately interrupted, "Stop! This is not something that can be discussed at the meeting. Its current confidentiality level is much higher than Dark Twins. We will talk in private after the regular meeting is over."
"Understood! It's my pleasure."
Lulu undoubtedly got the answer he wanted, and a trace of pride flashed through his eyes hidden under his sunglasses.
The reason why he has been able to lurk in the organization for so many years without being noticed by anyone is because of this superb little trick.
