Are You Even Worthy of Waiting for Her?
While uttering sarcastic remarks, Lu Guan was actually already analyzing the information he had obtained from the Jué.
Lu Guan wasn't sure where the term "military formation" came from, but perhaps it came from a military treatise?
But that kick... combined with the Jué's words "One Ku!" Lu Guan had a guess...
This should be Lee Sin's ultimate ability "Dragon's Rage" from League of Legends. As a targeted skill, it can naturally kick enemies within range that are on a wall away...
"Indeed, He possesses more than one ' Desolation,' which explains why General Jiyan hadn't encountered it before. It seems the Jué Desolation been silently collecting these things..."
"As for why He can manipulate the Tacet Discord so precisely, perhaps the inherently evil Fractsidus cooperate with Him..."
"But now that our goal has been achieved, we're not going to play along anymore."
Jué Lu Guan was about to run away, Wu Xiangxian hurriedly shouted, "Bastard... don't even think about running away!"
"As long as I want to go, the road is right under my feet!" After saying this, Lu Guan disappeared, leaving only the furious Jué behind.
As for Mahoraga... forget about it, it doesn't matter.
Inside the stone statue.
Phrolova, dressed in a red dress, slowly opened her eyes. She could sense the sounds outside; the Jué was fighting someone.
Although Phrolova didn't understand why that person could fight Threnodian for so long, she knew in her heart that now was the perfect opportunity for her to escape.
Using the last bit of Resonance Power in her body, she broke free from the chains binding her, slowly stood up, and moved her numb limbs.
"Hey, I've been looking everywhere for you..." a male voice rang in her ear, "I never expected you to be hiding here..."
"Who?" Phrolova's internal alarm bells rang, but when he turned around, he saw a pair of shimmering golden eyes, and his expression froze.
Those eyes, without a doubt!
She blurted out, "Is it you...?"
"Smack!"
She was met with a resounding slap.
The burning pain on her cheek pulled her back to reality. Phrolova then realized that although the man in front of her had eyes very similar to that person's, he was not her...
"The ability of the Jué to manipulate Tacet Discord comes from you, doesn't it?" Lu Guan asked, his tone accusatory. "The one who is born evil is Phrolova, the supervisor of the Fractsidus!"
"Heh... so what if it is?" Phrolova had no intention of arguing, after all, she never cared about what others thought of her.
Although the Tacet Discord was manipulated by the Jué through her resonance ability, and was not an action she acted on her own volition, why should she explain it to others?
"Sigh..." After hearing Phrolova's words, Lu Guan sighed and scratched the back of his head with some regret.
Don't misunderstand, Lu Guan didn't regret slapping Phrolova earlier, but rather regretted wasting his breath on the inherently evil Fractsidus.
Why ask? Just condemn them outright. After all, what good person would join such an extreme terrorist organization?
"What... what do you have...?" Phrolova was about to ask Lu Guan what he meant when she was met with a heavy punch from Lu Guan.
"That punch was because of what you just said!"
He then threw another punch.
"That punch was to vent Yangyang's anger!"
Then came the third punch, the fourth punch...
Lu Guan was too lazy to make excuses anymore. "I just wanted to hit you, there was no other reason..."
It has to be said that the Fractsidus are either masters of running away or legendary survivors. Even after being beaten for a long time, Phrolova was still breathing and kept looking at Lu Guan with those mournful eyes.
Lu Guan's stare made him feel nauseous.
He couldn't understand what right Phrolova had to live. His town had been destroyed, and in order to resurrect the dead, he had joined the Fractsidus commit evil...
Over the years, the crimes she committed and the families she directly or indirectly destroyed have far exceeded those of the people in that small town back then. Even if they could eventually be resurrected, it would be a result built on the blood of others...
If it were Lu Guan, he would only mourn the deceased, and would not pursue the so-called resurrection of the dead to harm others.
If you abandon your moral compass, what's the difference between you and an animal?
Lu Guan has never shown any mercy to beasts, but the things Phrolova did have had a far worse impact on this land than can be summed up by the word "beast."
She said she wouldn't wait anymore... but does someone like Phrolova even deserve to wait for her?
It's just that the Rover was kind-hearted; he actually tried to comfort the crazy woman at first. If it were Lu Guan...
After turning Phrolova into a Chaoshan-style beef ball, Lu Guan was still not satisfied and used his long-sealed "Cursed Speech - Modification" on her.
"Listen to me—from now on, whenever you want to resurrect those people, your mind will automatically replay the scene of the town's destruction."
The way to destroy a paranoid undead monster is to drive her to a mental breakdown. Although Lu Guan has a way to kill Phrolova completely, it would be too easy for her to die so easily.
If it weren't for the need to evade censorship, Lu Guan would have used even more ruthless methods, but there was no need; this was enough to cause her serious trouble.
After all, there's no need to rush; haste makes waste...
After doing all this, Lu Guan stopped looking at Phrolova. He could tell that the Jué had already discovered him.
"I'm outta here..."
Midnight Rangers.
Looking at the scene of the battle in the distance, Yangyang's face was full of worry. Although she usually said she hated her cousin Lu Guan, she couldn't help but worry about his safety when Lu Guan was actually in danger...
"Please come back safely..." Yangyang knew she couldn't help Lu Guan, so she could only pray for him silently in her heart.
Just as Yangyang was "praying and observing," the battle on the other side of Norfall Barrens stopped, indicating that the outcome had been decided.
A technician nearby shouted, "General Jiyan... the Lament Index is still rising! The Jué has not been defeated!"
Jiyan's eyes darkened, and he slowly nodded. "I understand."
He immediately waved his hand and shouted to everyone present, "Everyone, prepare to engage!"
Then Jiyan turned to Yangyang and said, "Miss Yangyang, you are injured. You should retreat with the logistics personnel first."
"How could this be..." After hearing the researcher's words, Yangyang's pupils dilated sharply, and a terrible suspicion arose in her mind.
"Impossible... impossible... he was so confident... he was so young... how could he..." Yangyang took several steps back, shaking her head repeatedly. "No... Jiyan, I want to stay."
"I'll wait for him to come back... He'll definitely be alright..."
"Calm down, Yangyang," Jiyan reassured her. "Now that you've lost your fighting ability, there's no point in staying. Besides, Young Master Lu's situation is still unclear; perhaps there's another chance..."
"... But he hasn't come back yet..." Yangyang lowered her head, tears dripping onto the ground at her feet. "This is already..."
"What is it already?" A flippant voice rang in Yangyang's ear, "My dear cousin, why did you secretly drop your little pearls?"
Yangyang looked up abruptly and saw Lu Guan standing in front of her, his arms crossed, shirtless, revealing his muscular physique, looking like he was watching her make a fool of herself.
"Why... why did you act so impulsively! Don't you know how worried you are!"
Faced with his cousin suddenly burying her face in his arms and sobbing uncontrollably, Lu Guan's face showed an extremely complicated expression.
"Yangyang, don't be like this, you're making me feel a little unfamiliar..." Lu Guan felt somewhat awkward and asked Jiyan, "General Jiyan, what's wrong with my cousin?"
"Ahem... She must have been worried about you since you haven't returned for so long." Jiyan coughed twice and asked, "How is the Jué? Why did He suddenly wake up?"
"It's nothing, just a little upset." Lu Guan as the Threnodian gradually quieted down in the distance. "He's a bit grumpy when he wakes up, but a mature Threnodian will manage his emotions, don't worry about it."
Then he patted Yangyang in his arms and casually ruffled her feathers. "Don't cry, I still need to share intelligence with General Jiyan, you can't expect me to keep crying like this... Aa...
"Are you a dog?! Why are you suddenly biting me?!"
Yangyang raised her head, her previous sad expression gone, replaced by an angry look. "Who told you to pluck my feathers!"
Jiyan watched the flirtatious siblings, his expression gradually froze. Why did he feel like he was being superfluous?
"Ahem... Never mind her, General Jiyan." Feeling guilty, Lu Guan chose to avoid the topic and turned to Jiyan, saying, "I just obtained a lot of intelligence from my battle with Jué. Let's go inside the tent and talk about it."
