2162. Escape Mortis (Part 2)
When he saw Tang Xiao throwing Dagger of Mortis in front of his 'father', the son was shocked. He didn't expect that Tang Xiao would betray him!
The reason why he chose Tang Xiao to help him stab his 'father' was because he had noticed that Tang Xiao had a very sharp conflict with his 'father' and his daughter.
'Father' is very paranoid about the balance of the Force, so he will definitely lock Tang Xiao until his secret is completely understood.
The daughter is Light Side Force, and Tang Xiao has been quarreling with his daughter these days. He is very angry that his daughter imprisoned him, which may lead to war with Duchy of Dawn, so he hates it extremely. My son has been observing this.
It is precisely because of this that the son thinks he has an opportunity to win over Tang Xiao. Because among the three the Ones now, only he can meet the conditions for letting Tang Xiao go back.
But how did he know that Tang Xiao, who was familiar with the plot, chose another way to escape Mortis - killing three the Ones!
Not knowing Tang Xiao's true inner thoughts, his son naturally made a wrong judgment.
And now, the son has only one thought in his mind at this moment - he must not let his 'father' get Dagger of Mortis!!
As soon as Dagger of Mortis appeared, 'father' could immediately understand that it was he who asked Tang Xiao to do it. Then 'father' will definitely be wary of him and even use Dagger of Mortis to deal with him!
In fact, this is the most critical and fundamental part of Tang Xiao's success in this round——
Although the names are "Father", "Son" and "Daughter", these three the Ones are not a father-son-father-daughter relationship in the traditional sense! The three the Ones are actually more like the trinity of the Force.
The Ones was born from Celestials. They have indeed been living together since their birth, and the 'father' does regard his son and daughter as his own children, but the kind of family affection that is thicker than water does not exist between them. Dagger of Mortis is the key to why 'father' can command his sons and daughters.
I wonder which parent needs to use weapons to intimidate their children in order to make them obedient?
Therefore, although the three the Ones appear to be a family relationship with a majestic father and two noisy children, in fact, there is no basis for trust between them.
This is why in the original plot, the son suddenly attacked the 'father' with Blitz, but the daughter standing next to him did not stop him.
And the reason why they were extremely sad when the other died was because since the birth of the 'The Ones' race, only the three of them had never experienced separation in life or death. In their view, the separation of life and death of other races is like seeing a few dead ants in a nest of ants, and they cannot empathize with them.
So only when the daughter and father actually die, the son will be so sad. That's because at that time, he truly realized what death was and what separation was.
But before that, there was a gap between the three the Ones. And there's a long history of distrust between them.
According to what Tang Xiao knows about the plot, at first the son and daughter were just ordinary the Oness, living together under the leadership of their 'father'. The Homeworld they lived in at that time, perhaps the Relics left behind by Celestials, had two very mysterious places - Font of Power (Font of Power) and Pool of Knowledge (Pool of Knowledge).
Font of Power contains immense power, while Pool of Knowledge contains knowledge of the past and future. Both of these places are taboo and the 'father' forbids his daughter and son to set foot in them.
But the son drank Font of Power and mastered extremely powerful power, and therefore fell into Dark Side of the Force. The daughter also bathed in Pool of Knowledge, gained endless knowledge, and thus mastered the power of the Force Light Side.
After that, the son and daughter began to fight with each other, and it was extremely difficult for the 'father' to maintain the Force's balance in the middle. The relationship between the three the Ones also began to become distorted.
Then for unknown reasons, the 'father' locked his son and daughter in Mortis, preventing them from going to the outside galaxy and causing an even greater disaster. This reason may be due to evil god Alobeth, but Tang Xiao doesn't know what happened specifically, so we can only guess.
Therefore, based on the current distrustful relationship between the three the Ones, Tang Xiao moved between the three of them, leading to this murderous gathering. If you want to kill one the Ones, the best way is to let another the Ones do it!
That's why Tang Xiao is sure that his son will definitely do something very extreme after seeing him leaving Dagger of Mortis to his 'father'. Including snatching the dagger, including killing Tang Xiao. In the eyes of 'father', these behaviors are undoubtedly attacks on himself!
Having seen the powerful bloody arrow shoot at him before, the 'father' was sure that his son had betrayed him, and he immediately blocked his son's attack. At this time, he also saw his son rushing over with a fierce look!
The 'father' didn't want to confront his son, so he kept retreating. But Tang Xiao kept sticking to him, still shouting, "My son got Dagger of Mortis! He wants to kill you!"
The son hated Tang Xiao even more, and he once again released the terrifying Crimson Lightning in his hand and struck at Tang Xiao! He was still hesitant about whether he really wanted to attack his 'father', so almost all his attacks were directed at Tang Xiao. He wanted to kill this mortal who dared to betray himself first!
Tang Xiao has now become one with Dark Archon. His strength is much stronger than before, and his strong mental power also allows him to better predict the direction of his son's attack.
He hid behind his 'father', but there were still a large number of Blitzs that crossed over 'father' and struck towards him! The situation at this moment is extremely dangerous. The son's extremely powerful power, although most of the attacks are blocked by the 'father', even if a little bit is missed, it will be a fatal threat to Tang Xiao!
But Tang Xiao must persevere! He must block it! Because the farce happening in Mortis is far from reaching its climax!
Crimson Lightning struck Tang Xiao one after another, and the blood-red flames around his body continued to dim. Click! A Blitz directly hit Tang Xiao's body. The black armor of Dark Archon blocked this Blitz, but the place where it was hit was instantly blown to pieces!
Tang Xiao stepped back repeatedly, shouting at his 'father': "He wants to kill you now! He asked me to take out Dagger of Mortis! Now the dagger is in his hand!"
In the opinion of 'father', it is impossible for a mortal to know about Dagger of Mortis, and since his daughter has been with him these days, the only possibility is his son! Therefore, when Tang Xiao said this, 'father' immediately believed it.
"You made a huge mistake, son!" the 'father' pointed at his son and scolded him.
"You forced me to do this! Old man! Get out of my way now, I'm going to kill this traitor!!" The son had almost lost his mind in anger. He raised his hand and waved, Crimson Lightning condensed into a handful of Longsword, and stabbed straight at Tang Xiao!
However, at this moment, because he was close enough, he discovered that the Dagger of Mortis thrown by Tang Xiao was actually a fake!!
"What?" This unexpected incident made his son stunned.
Is the dagger fake? Where is the real dagger?
Wait a moment!... could it be?
The son suddenly looked at Tang Xiao. At this moment, Tang Xiao had already circled behind his father. Behind the blood-red flames, he could see a cold smile emerging from the corner of Tang Xiao's mouth.
No! Dagger of Mortis is still on Tang Xiao! He would really kill 'Father'! And now in their position, their 'father' is standing in front of them and is wary of him. Once Tang Xiao really takes action, he can't stop it at all!
Son, he just wanted to hurt his 'father' so that he could not control Mortis and give him a chance to escape. He never really wanted to kill his 'father'!
In his plan, Tang Xiao intervened the moment he took out the dagger and stabbed it out. In addition, his father would definitely react to some extent, so the dagger would almost certainly go wrong. But it doesn't matter. Now that I have taken action, I can slightly correct the angle of the dagger so that the dagger can penetrate into a non-fatal position on 'father's' body.
In this way, you can achieve your goals without having to do it yourself. As for Tang Xiao, just kill him the moment he takes action.
But at this moment, the son never thought that Tang Xiao would come. He first threw Dagger of Mortis to make himself confused, but then cooperated with himself to injure his daughter, allowing him to break through her daughter's blockage and face his 'father' directly.
In this way, both the 'father' and the daughter's attention will be on him! This is the worst case scenario.
But even worse is Tang Xiao! The son's eyes widened, and he didn't care about launching an attack. He rushed towards Tang Xiao and shouted, "Wait a minute! Stop!!"
We can't let Tang Xiao really stab 'Father' in the back. In that case, 'Father' will almost certainly die! Because all his attention and all his strength are on himself!
At this moment, the 'father' thought the dagger was on his son, and the son thought the dagger was on Tang Xiao. Maybe if they were given a second more time to think about it, they would both come to different conclusions. But at this moment, they unanimously chose to do their best!
Pfft...
The son's movements stopped instantly. He lowered his head and looked at the black triangular blade pierced from his back, and was stunned for a moment.
Dagger of Mortis?
The son reacted subconsciously and used his strongest strength to hit the attacker behind him! With a bang, blood-red Blitz almost filled the entire sky!
But this was also his last strength... The son felt that all the strength in his body began to flow rapidly along the dagger. He could not even stand at this moment. He tried his best to look back. Although he knew who stabbed the dagger, he still wanted to look at her again.
However, he can no longer do even this simplest action...
The 'father' had already rushed forward, hugged his son's body, and cried out, "No... what have you done?! What have you done?!"
However, when he raised his head, what he saw was his daughter, who had been seriously injured by his son before, and now was injured even more by the full force of his son's dying blow!
The daughter fell to the ground covered in blood, with a lot of burnt black on her body. Crimson Lightning's crazy attack caused extremely serious injuries to her, which made her dying.
The 'father' hurriedly ran to his daughter, helped her up, and tried to use his own strength to help her heal. He turned around suddenly and looked at Tang Xiao, with anger in his tone, "You planned all of this!"
Tang Xiao also gritted his teeth and said word for word, "You should know that when you ignore my wishes and forcefully lock me here, causing Duchy of Dawn hundreds of billions of people to suffer the threat of war, I am destined to do whatever it takes."
'Father' stood up, stared at Tang Xiao, and said slowly, "You made a huge mistake." Just like what he said to his son just now, but now facing Tang Xiao, the same sentence contained murderous intent!
Tang Xiao took a step back, he has done his best now. He cannot continue to be imprisoned here by his 'father', and the secret of his time travel cannot be discovered, but his power is too far away from the three the Ones, and this is all he can do.
He gave the dagger to his daughter, who was weaker than his son, and helped his son injure her in the ensuing chaos. Her daughter would never have thought that Tang Xiao, who had been so confidant to her before, would be the first to attack her. This was to put her daughter at an absolute disadvantage.
Only in this way, when her daughter wakes up from the chaos of being seriously injured and sees her son rushing towards his 'father', will she subconsciously use the most powerful force in her hand to stop her son.
That is Dagger of Mortis.
And Tang Xiao's plan was indeed successful. The daughter did use Dagger of Mortis, and it was true that she was unable to control her power despite being seriously injured and killed her son. But he had no way of grasping the power level of the Ones. So now, although the son is indeed dead and the daughter is seriously injured, the 'father' is unscathed, which is different from Tang Xiao's original plan.
In fact, he initially hoped to lose all three...
But now that the 'father' is unscathed, and it is obvious that he will pour out the anger of being deceived on himself, then for Tang Xiao, things are out of control. 'Father' was already extremely angry at Tang Xiao because of the mysterious black Kyber Crystal when Geth was conducting experiments on Force Banshee, so now, it is impossible for him to let him go.
However, facing three opponents with god-like power, Tang Xiao felt that it was enough to be able to do this.
All that's left is a fight to the death!
Tang Xiao began to gather his most powerful power, and the blood-red flames enveloped his whole body again. An unprecedentedly powerful the Force gathered on him!
He is about to face the wrath of the Ones's 'father'!
The 'father' did not hesitate, he finally took action with anger, and struck Tang Xiao with a terrifying Blitz!
However, at this moment, a Warp Gate appeared out of thin air behind Tang Xiao, and then a huge figure took action directly, blocking the 'father's' blow!!
Thanks to the great and glorious human civilization long live 100 Qidian Coin for the reward!!
