Chapter 557: The Way to Resolve Conflicts ()
"What did you do to her?"
Withdrawing her gaze from Filvis, Ryu fully carried forward the spirit of asking if she didn't understand, and looked at Lin Que on the side.
"How did she become like this after not seeing her for a while?"
If Ryu's memory wasn't faulty, the last time she and Filvis met was just over an hour ago.
Clearly, when they first met at the Demeter Familia, Filvis still looked dead and lifeless, like a machine that was close to being scrapped.
How could she have changed like a different person in just over an hour, directly becoming Lin Que's fanatical follower?
"Could it be that you took a liking to her power, so you used some special ability to brainwash her?"
"Shut up! You guy who doesn't know anything!"
Filvis glared at Ryu: "Lord Lin Que not only gave me a new life but also gave me the opportunity to kill my enemy with my own hands!"
"You don't understand anything, so don't talk nonsense there!"
"New life?"
A flash of realization flashed in Ryu's eyes.
Just like she was resurrected for the sake of the Astrea Familia, and Alfia was for the sake of treating her illness and resurrecting her sister.
Filvis in front of her probably also had some unspeakable secrets and had received Lin Que's help.
As someone who had experienced similar encounters, Ryu understood the joy of being helped and finding a way out of a desperate situation.
If Filvis's personality was even more extreme, it wasn't impossible for her to become like this.
"Sorry, I said the wrong thing just now."
"...... Pay attention next time."
Not expecting Ryu to apologize directly, Filvis was stunned for a moment before not pursuing it too much, and looked at Lin Que.
"Lord Lin Que, I have finished all my business. May I ask if you have anything you need me to do?"
"If not, I will go back to the surface to fight for you and take down all those guys who are still putting up a desperate resistance."
"You don't need to take action."
Lin Que shook his head slightly: "When I came to the Artificial Labyrinth just now, I had already sent Alfia out."
Coupled with the affiliated Familias like the Hephaestus Familia and Apollo Familia that had also started to act, the surface was probably in a mess.
If he threw the overly motivated Filvis up there at this time, Orario would probably explode completely.
Lin Que's goal was to rule Orario and transform this place into his own amusement park, not to destroy it.
"The number of people thrown into the battlefield now is just right."
"Next, we just need to wait for tomorrow to arrive, and then harvest everything in one go."
"Before that, you just follow me for now."
"Yes."
"Alright, it's about time for me to leave too."
Lin Que looked at Ryu on the side: "The remaining cleanup work will be left to the Astrea Familia to solve."
"When all the matters of the Artificial Labyrinth are solved, you and Alise and the others go to the Dungeon to handle the Xenos matter."
"I will get it done as soon as possible."
Ryu nodded slightly: "However... if the other party refuses to surrender at that time, I can't guarantee that I can select the good-looking Xenos you mentioned."
"Do you have any targets in mind? Or you can give a standard for what looks good."
"Just follow your own aesthetic."
Lin Que replied: "If you think they look good, keep them; if they don't look good, then deal with them."
Ryu asked cautiously again: "What if I think none of them look good?"
"If none of them look good, then naturally they must all be killed."
A smile appeared on Lin Que's face: "However, as the price for not bringing back satisfactory results, Ryu, you will have to replace the missing Xenos to play with me at that time."
Ryu: "......"
It seems she has no choice but to work hard.
After telling Ryu the locations of the Xenos' strongholds in the Dungeon, Lin Que didn't stay in the Artificial Labyrinth any longer.
Casually pulling out a spatial gate, Lin Que directly took Filvis back to the former Apollo Familia mansion.
"Hmm?"
Demeter, who had been sitting in the living room in a daze after being 'tied' back by Alise, came back to her senses.
Looking at the two people who suddenly appeared, she was stunned for a moment before her gaze fell directly on the elf behind Lin Que.
"Filvis?"
Filvis, who also didn't expect to see Demeter as soon as she landed, was silent for two seconds and nodded toward her: "It's me."
"What's the situation?"
Attacked by the other party an hour ago, and even a Familia member died on the spot.
Even if Demeter was generous, seeing Filvis at this moment, she couldn't help but frown.
Looking at Lin Que on the side, Demeter threw away the self-introduction she had originally prepared and asked directly.
"Isn't Filvis Dionysus's person? Why is she acting together with you."
"Because I persuaded Filvis."
Lin Que smiled and sat down opposite Demeter: "In fact, she had been used by Dionysus all along."
"After my persuasion, she has now turned over a new leaf and chosen to pledge loyalty to me."
"...... Used, huh."
Glancing at Filvis, who was dodging her gaze on the side, Demeter, as a god, could probably tell that Lin Que wasn't lying.
At this very moment, Filvis was indeed holding a certain amount of apology when facing her.
"I roughly understand the course of events, but the children of my Familia might not be able to accept this explanation."
From a god's perspective, a person's death is just the beginning of a new life.
But in the eyes of ordinary people, a person's death represents an eternal separation, never to be seen again.
· ·········· ·······
"Those children all have good relationships, so if there isn't a good treatment plan, it's better not to let them meet."
"That's not a big problem."
Lin Que casually took out a ball of light and tossed it twice in front of Demeter.
"The soul of that dead Familia member of yours was intercepted by me before going to the Heavenly Realm."
"I'll just mold a body for him later and stuff him in, and he can be perfectly resurrected."
"...... Although I've heard from Alise that you haven't self-sealed, I didn't expect it to be true."
Demeter's expression became a bit complicated: "Cheating so openly, won't there be problems?" ===== CHAPTER 559 =====
