Chapter 452
And, the other party also mentioned that he learned the information of the Central Court from Xia's mouth; regarding this point, Yan Hua felt that Lu Li did not deceive them.
Regarding this Pavilion Master of the White Night Pavilion, Yan Hua's degree of importance toward her exceeded Xiro; after all, for such a long time, he could not see through Xia, and also could not obtain more information about the other party.
"It can be considered a trade relationship," thinking about it, Lu Li replied: "I need information on the Black Core, and as the price for the information exchange, I will solve a problem of the Boundary City."
Very much the style of that Pavilion Master!
"Second point, why do you collect Black Cores?" Not distinguishing the authenticity of Lu Li's answer, Yan Hua directly threw out the last two questions: "Third point, why do you think you have a way to solve Zero's problem?"
Speaking of the last question, Yan Hua's tone also became sharp.
"Let's answer your last question first," regarding Yan Hua's sharp tone, Lu Li was not angry: "Zero's problem lies in living-corpse-fication; as long as one can separate the other party from living-corpse-fication, then naturally one can solve this problem."
"As for why I collect Black Cores, you don't need to ask about this; anyway, my purpose is not the same as Xiro's."
Sure enough, he and Xiro had met before!
Hearing Lu Li's response, a sharp light flashed in the depths of Yan Hua's eyes: "Your method might be feasible, but since you know about living-corpse-fication, then you should also be clear that wanting to do this step is not an easy thing."
"If an abnormality occurs in the middle, then it will cause quite a bit of blow to the Central Court."
Not only the existence and maintenance of the Central Court, Zero was also their companion; regardless of which aspect had a problem, it was not what they were willing to see.
"Better than letting the other party continue to living-corpse-fy; compared to before chronic suicide, what is the difference?" Shrugging, Lu Li asked back directly: "And, for Zero, don't you feel cruel like this?"
This sentence directly silenced the few; indeed, their approach was no different from chronic suicide.
Even with Rachel's suppression medicine and Ann's time ability, from a certain perspective, they just constantly delayed the time for Zero to completely living-corpse-fy.
And in this, Zero had to endure the pain of living-corpse-fication at all times.
But, if they handed Zero over to the other party just like that, they couldn't completely put their hearts at ease; after all, this was their first meeting with Lu Li, and the other party's information was also as little as possible.
Even Yan Hua felt it was a bit tricky now; if he didn't agree, the other party would highly likely make a move directly; this would be troublesome.
"Antoneva, Yan Hua, Aemusa," suddenly, a hurried voice interrupted everyone's conversation; then, Ann, wearing a maid outfit, appeared in everyone's field of vision, running toward them rapidly.
Seeing Ann appear suddenly, the expressions of Antoneva, Yan Hua, and Aemusa all changed.
Zero, something happened!
849. The last hope.
【Glorious Maid Ann】
Race: Divine Artifact User
Grade: Perfect
Level: Nine Stars
Equipment: Dual Swords Time Blade (Divine Artifact), Time Sand (Exclusive Shadow Gear)
Skills: Space-Time Blade, Second Hand Instant Acceleration, Hour Hand Flow Slow, Time Rewind, Loop Moment (Divine Artifact Skill), Time Sequence Distortion (Exclusive Shadow Gear Skill)
Another Divine Artifact User, and looking at this skill and equipment, is it still a Divine Artifact User possessing time power?
Time and space, and Aemusa's Divine Artifact ability also involves fate; this Central Court truly has hidden dragons and crouching tigers.
Seeing Ann's panel information, Lu Li couldn't help but smack his lips, but Ann's strength was a bit worse, even stronger than the Divine Artifact User Nive he encountered at the beginning, but compared to Ronak and Flora, these four Heavenly Kings, it was quite a bit worse.
Not to mention, compared to Antoneva and Aemusa, the gap was even greater.
"Young Master, under the ground of the Central Court, a very powerful energy is brewing; although there is a time-series prop constantly limiting it, perhaps it won't take long before the creature bred by this energy breaks through the limit."
Ever since arriving at the Central Court, she hadn't spoken much, just acting as a background board; Baosi spoke at this moment.
"Under the ground of the Central Court? Then it seems to be the Zero in a living-corpse-fication state mentioned by Xia," hearing Baosi's statement, Lu Li instantly guessed why Ann appeared so suddenly.
The other party was a time-series Divine Artifact User, and also possessed the Divine Artifact Time Blade and the exclusive shadow gear Time Sand; it was highly likely that she had been taking care of and suppressing the Divine Artifact User who was living-corpse-fying.
The time power Baosi felt had a great possibility of being the ability of the Divine Artifact or exclusive shadow gear of this Ann.
"However, that living-corpse-fication situation is probably not very good," Ann appeared here, and was so hurried; the greatest possibility was that she had no way to suppress the living-corpse-fication on Zero, and came to move reinforcements.
"Everyone, Zero's situation is very bad; relying only on my ability is not enough to suppress the progress of living-corpse-fication." Just as Lu Li guessed, Ann was indeed here to move reinforcements.
"If this continues, Zero will probably completely living-corpse-fy very soon and become a monster."
"Actually at this time," Antoneva and the three, although they had guesses early on, but getting Ann's confirmation, the hearts of the three still couldn't help but tremble fiercely.
"Sorry, we need to handle some things first," looking at each other, Aemusa spoke: "If you don't mind, you can walk around within the Central Court first; after handling the urgent matter, we will continue the topic just now."
While Aemusa was speaking, space power was already flowing on Antoneva's body; clearly, she intended to directly teleport everyone to under the ground.
"Although I don't mind, however, I feel you don't need to rush to leave," Lu Li shook his head: "Or rather, even if you leave now, it's too late."
As the words fell, Ann's expression also changed: "Zero broke the Time Distortion of Time Sand!"
"Prepare for battle!" Yan Hua's reaction was very fast, directly sacrificing the long gun on his shoulder; the exclusive shadow gear Magic-Breaking Bullet had been stimulated, and his eyes were also dyed with golden luster; that was the color of the Divine Artifact Horus's Eye.
For a living-corpse-fied Divine Artifact User, ordinary attacks had no big effect; one must combine the Divine Artifact and exclusive shadow gear to cause damage to the living-corpse-fied Divine Artifact User.
He had already felt the slight vibration of the earth; this represented that the living-corpse-fied Zero was impacting from under the ground toward the ground; he believed it wouldn't take long before the other party broke through the obstacles of the Central Court and descended on this area.
"I know you are unwilling to fight Zero, but Zero has completely living-corpse-fied; what we need to do now is to solve her pain." Glancing at Antoneva and the three, Yan Hua's voice was very calm.
"Send little Zero on her way; this is the only thing we can do now." Taking a deep breath, Aemusa also pulled out her Divine Artifact Tarot Card; then, each Tarot Card was stained with a special energy; that was the power of fate, a manifestation of her exclusive shadow gear Fate Card taking effect.
"Is there really no way?" Seeing Aemusa and Yan Hua had already entered a combat state, Ann was still unwilling to make a move against Zero, looking toward Antoneva.
On weekdays, although she did not quite agree with Antoneva's philosophy, but now, she could only hope that Antoneva had a solution.
Otherwise, she truly didn't know how to face the living-corpse-fied Zero; she couldn't make a move.
"A way?" Although knowing Yan Hua's words were right, and knowing Aemusa's choice was right, Antoneva was also unwilling to give up Zero just like that, just like when she awakened to become a Divine Artifact User, she also did not give up on her classmates.
She fought alone for seven days, until Xiro brought Zero to rescue her, and finally collapsed from exhaustion.
Even later, Xiro took Ronak and the others to rebel from the Central Court and left Zero behind; she did not resent the other party because of this.
Regarding companions, Antoneva valued them more than anything else.
Therefore, even if there was only a glimmer of opportunity, she was unwilling to give up just like that.
Thinking of this, Antoneva looked toward Lu Li as if she had made up her mind: "Do you really have a way to bring little Zero back?"
If Zero had not completely living-corpse-fied, then even if Antoneva trusted Lu Li, she probably wouldn't have made up her mind, because at that time, they subconsciously would still think there were other solutions.
But now, Zero had completely living-corpse-fied; facing a completely living-corpse-fied Divine Artifact User, they only had the path of killing the other party, because a completely living-corpse-fied Divine Artifact User had no possibility of being saved.
This was a painful experience they had concluded in the past.
But now, Antoneva still held hope, because in the past, they only used their own methods, and this time, there was an outsider, Lu Li.
Perhaps, the other party really possessed the ability to save little Zero.
If it failed, then Antoneva would not say anything else, but would also make a move against the living-corpse-fied little Zero, letting her be liberated.
But if it succeeded, then did it mean that other living-corpse-fied Divine Artifact Users could also be saved?
850. Living-corpse-fication! Bird in a Cage, Zero!
"I have confidence, but whether it can succeed specifically depends on the living-corpse-fication situation of the other party," facing Antoneva's inquiry, Lu Li replied calmly.
He was willing to trade with the Central Court, but it was just a trade, and it was also because the Black Core of the Central Court was relatively special.
More importantly, he had not yet seen that living-corpse-fied Divine Artifact User until now.
"Since that's the case, then I'll leave it to you," biting her lip, Antoneva looked at Lu Li deeply.
She had a feeling that perhaps the other party really had a way to solve little Zero's problem.
"Anto, are you sure?" Hearing Antoneva's words, Aemusa and Yan Hua couldn't help but look toward the other party, their tone carrying inquiry.
Only Ann, she had just appeared suddenly, so she didn't know the conversation between the few before, and didn't know Lu Li's intention.
"Little Zero's situation is already no worse than it is now; I think it's worth a try." Taking a deep breath, Antoneva's expression returned to calm: "Therefore, I think it's worth a try."
"Indeed so," after a few seconds of silence, Yan Hua finally nodded; he naturally understood Antoneva's meaning, and now was indeed the best opportunity to try.
As for Aemusa, seeing that both agreed, she also sighed; now there was only this way.
This sense of powerlessness had appeared back when Xiro took Ronak and the others to rebel and leave the Central Court.
Didn't expect that it hadn't been long, and this feeling appeared again.
"Young Master, what method do you have?" Compared to the people of the Central Court, Baosi is curious about what method Lu Li actually has.
"You'll know if you keep watching," regarding this, Lu Li didn't explain too much; anyway, when the time comes, she will know, but in the end, he gave a warning: "When the time comes, you keep an eye on those few of them."
As time passed, that Living Corpse Artifact User beneath the earth had already moved closer and closer to the surface; relying on his Sovereign Realm-level spiritual power, Lu Li felt that the strength of the Living Corpse Artifact User about to appear was not ordinary, and not something that Antoneva, Yan Hua, and the others could resist.
This Central Court looks like a key plot location; if Antoneva and the others were to be killed by the aftermath in the upcoming battle, it might affect subsequent developments.
Therefore, Lu Li had to arrange for Baosi to look after them; of course, this is also a precaution against them.
"Understood, Young Master," although Lu Li didn't state his intentions, Baosi wasn't annoyed, just silently nodded, indicating that she would keep an eye on Antoneva and the others.
Boom!
The earth shook, and the next moment, Ling, who had completely finished the Living Corpse transformation, appeared before everyone.
