But Chen didn't give her that chance.

She gritted her teeth and suddenly stood up.

Meanwhile, Amiya seized the opportunity and fired a magic bullet!

Talulah had to divert her attention to defend herself.

At this moment, Chen had already stood up!

Even so, Talulah remained calm, showing no concern for Chen in front of her.

Chen's weapon had just been broken by her; what could she possibly do now?

But... clearly, Talulah overlooked one thing.

Chen also has a weapon...

She also has a sword... that she's never touched...

"Smack..."

Placing his hand on Chixiao, Chen's gaze slowly shifted from confusion to determination.

She took a deep breath, feeling her body and mind reconcile once again.

From the moment she entered Platform 17, she had been lost... She didn't know what she really wanted, and simply used the excuse of saving Lungmen to ease her mind.

But Talulah ruthlessly tore apart this excuse.

This is why she is falling into a series of defeats.

But Hoshiguma's words had just ignited something in her mind.

Yes... what exactly does she want to do?

This question is very vague; in fact, it could be said that there is no answer.

But it was in that instant that Chen found what he wanted to do...

"Perhaps you're right, Talulah... I'm still as naive and ridiculous as ever."

Chen gripped the Chixiao at his waist tightly, his teeth clenched.

"But even so... I have my own things to do..."

"Even if what you're about to do involves using your companions' lives as bargaining chips?"

Talulah frowned; Ch'en Hui-chieh's reckless and headstrong attitude made her somewhat uncomfortable.

This was thanks to a woman she had met not long ago who also didn't care about the stakes.

"Shut up, Talulah!"

Ch'en Hui-chieh growled, his eyes gradually turning bloodshot.

Within her restless body, hot blood surged and crashed against her veins.

Her body temperature was rising rapidly, and her breathing became long and even.

"I will protect them... I will guard Lungmen... and I will never kill you!"

"One last time, Talulah... come back with me!"

Chen issued a warning.

But Talulah just smiled.

She looked at Chen's trembling hand gripping Chixiao's tightly and couldn't help but shake her head.

"That sounds nice, Chen, but you haven't even managed to draw it. What can you possibly do...?"

Before Talulah could finish speaking, a flash of crimson light instantly appeared before her eyes...

The crimson light filled her entire field of vision; in the blink of an eye, the sword had already struck...

'Clatter...'

A black substance fell from above her head.

Those striking dragon horns fell in an instant...

The Dragon-Slaying Sword, Chixiao, is drawn!

Wow, so fast?!

Talulah's eyes widened instantly, then she dodged back a few steps.

Her expression finally turned serious as she looked at the tall, resolute girl in front of her, her brows furrowing slightly.

Cutting off her horn didn't hurt her much... after all, she does lose one every year anyway.

But... he was chopped down?

This is the first time.

But what made her even more nervous was the aura Ch'en Hui-chieh was exuding at that moment.

She began to become resolute.

Although her eyes still revealed her confusion about herself, the hand that gripped the sword was no longer confused.

She knows what she needs to do now!

Perhaps, as the Black Snake Book suggests, Chen's ideas are indeed naive.

But no one in this world has ever said that naive ideas cannot win.

She's naive, but... if she defeats Talulah at this moment, then her naivety will be justified!

Regardless of the ideology, only the ideology of the victor is correct!

But what terrified the Black Snake even more was that the restless girl's will, which had always been dormant within her body, had begun to operate!

Close your eyes, then open them again!

Everyone could sense that Talulah had changed.

Her aura had completely changed!

"Patriot!"

She glanced at Chen, then turned and shouted loudly.

Kill me!

"Um?!"

Everyone was stunned by these words.

Only the Patriot's eyes showed a hint of relief.

He saw it again... he saw that ideal little girl...

"!"

Without a moment's hesitation, he roared, shaking off the surrounding Blades, turned around, raised his halberd, and aimed at Talulah!

"Bang!"

A whooshing sound rang out, carrying a despairing red hue, as it sliced through the scorched ruins!

The outcome of the battle... seems to be already decided.

But at this critical moment, Talulah opened her eyes again.

A surge of rage erupted within her instantly!

In an instant, towering flames engulfed her entire body!

"Blades!"

The Black Snake is back!

"Yes!"

Following Talulah's command, the last few Blades joined the battle!

Unable to defend himself after losing his weapon, Patriot was pierced through the abdomen by a single blow.

Kal'tsit was blasted away to a distance while protecting the Doctor.

Even the group that was still locked in a stalemate were instantly thrown back!

With their arrival, the arena was now filled with ten sharp Blades!

This is enough force to wage a localized conflict!

A terrifying black mist enveloped everything around it, making it completely impenetrable!

In an instant, the situation that had just started to improve was crushed by an overwhelming force!

Even the taciturn Patriot knelt on the ground, raised his head, and stared blankly at the Blades.

As the most elite weaponry in Ursus, how come there are so many of these guys here?

No... no, this wasn't an accident... this was a pre-arranged bargaining chip!

The Patriot suddenly understood something.

The Blades are a powerful arsenal of weapons; they will only obey the emperor's orders!

I would never obey anyone else's orders!

But at this moment, ten Blades appeared, which is two whole teams of them.

Their presence here, and their obedience to the Black Snake's orders, means that from the very beginning in Chernobog, the Emperor of Ursus was already aware of the situation and had made arrangements accordingly!

So...

What appears to be madness at the moment—that the corrupted Talulah wants to lead the Reunion Movement to its doom—is actually Ursus's attempt to use the Reunion Movement to create a pretext for war with Yan!

And this war is used to alleviate the internal conflicts within Ursus...

They were used...

They... were just a bunch of pawns!

"Koschei--!"

The Patriot roared and tried to stand up.

But the wound from the sneak attack made him tremble all over.

Talulah, controlled by black, merely glanced in their direction before turning her gaze to the Blades beside her.

"What about the other team? I remember there were supposed to be three teams coming, right?"

"... Another team said they were attacked by an unknown Golem and will be back a little later, Duke."

The Blades opened, but the sound remained calm.

They had no idea what their colleagues meant by the Golem.

But even if they knew, they wouldn't care.

They are the Blades, the most powerful weapons of Ursus.

These Golem can only buy us a little time.

"Golem? Ah, I do remember there was someone controlling it... Why did she rebel? Hmm, never mind."

After thinking for a while, Talulah shook her head, no longer caring about what was going on there.

Blades's combat skills are completely trustworthy, so she shouldn't dwell on it too much.

She simply turned her head and looked at Ch'en Hui-chieh, whose face was filled with suppressed emotions.

After staring at each other for a moment, she suddenly laughed.

Is this the situation you hoped for?

"..."

Ch'en Hui-chieh remained silent.

Having already experienced giving up once, she refused to give up again this time, no matter what.

But...
