Chapter 1119: Possession
The gray chaotic energy filled with the power of destruction soon completely swallowed up this barrier.
Lin Lan quickly walked through the battlefield in front of the ruins of the Nirvana Palace with the good guys Richard and Miss D.
Finally, he hugged Mercury Memorial tightly.
"Ahaha~ I know that my dear commander will definitely come to save me. Maybe this is intuition?"
The long black-haired Northern United Light Patrol girl nestled in his arms, with a happy smile on her cute face.
He looked at the girl's slightly tired smile and the young Suzakus around who were covered in bruises but not a single body.
Lin Lan didn't understand that it was Mercury Memorial that had been protecting these Suzakus.
Although this Bei Lian girl always showed her playful and cute side in front of him, he knew that every Bei Lian ship girl had a great and selfless spirit.
The medal with red luster reflected on the chest of the girl's white military uniform shows that even in the most desperate moments, Mercury Memorial never knows what it means to give up.
Thinking that she had doubts about Mercury Memorial being able to be a teacher before, Lin Lan felt a sense of guilt in her heart.
"It's okay. I know you must still have many questions, but now is not the time to explain."
After he finished speaking about Mercury Memorial, Ji Rong and others followed him.
Ji Rong first cast a grateful look at Mercury Memorial, then glanced at the little Suzakus surrounding them, and asked eagerly:
"What happened in the clan? When I left, there was no problem with the Candlelight Vermillion Bird Formation. Why was it broken through in such a short period of time?
"Where is Ji Ju? Where is Ji Ju now?"
However, Ji Rong's question caused all the little Suzakus around to fall into a strange silence, and no one answered.
"Could it be that she was killed?"
Ji Rong vaguely guessed something, and there was a tremor in her voice.
"No, I think...it could be worse than you think."
But at this moment, Mercury Memorial, who was still hugging Lin Lan, suppressed the smile on his face.
After letting go of Lin Lan, the Northern United elder hesitated for a moment and finally said:
"This disaster was caused by your sister Ji Ju. The barrier that trapped us and those nightmare crystals just now were all caused by her."
"What?!"
Mercury Memorial's words not only surprised Ji Rong and the accompanying Suzakus, but even Lin Lan showed an expression of disbelief.
"No, no, no, no, you must be lying to me... How could my sister do this..."
Ji Rong shook his head and stepped back, as if it was difficult to accept this reality.
But at this time, a young Suzaku that had not fully grown its wings finally said weakly:
"Brother Young Patriarch, Teacher Mercury didn't lie to you..."
The little Suzaku, whose other wing was still injured, also lowered his head and spoke in a low voice:
"After the Zhuque Clan was broken through, Yanyun was filled with members of the clan who had been sealed, and we couldn't escape at all.
"Originally, under the leadership of Teacher Mercury, we gathered at the Nirvana Hall and planned to wait for help, but Sister Ji Ju suddenly appeared and brought those terrible monsters just now, and completely wiped out us and Teacher Mercury."
Lin Lan knew that these monsters that little Suzaku was talking about were the crystallization of nightmares.
But why can Ji Ju summon and control nightmare crystals?
Is it possible that he has also become an evil cultivator?
"She personally admitted that she destroyed the Candlelight Suzaku Formation, and she also said many words that we couldn't understand, such as slavery and gods, and then she entered the Divine Wood Cave alone..."
Before the little Suzaku finished speaking, Ji Rong interrupted:
"No! The keys to the Candlelight Vermilion Bird Array must be of the Demon Lord's strength before they can be used! Likewise, the Divine Wood Cave can only be entered by the Demon Lord's cultivation level!
"Her cultivation level is no longer that of a demon lord. Why can she do all this?"
Ji Rong's words immediately shocked all the Suzakus.
Lin Lan and good guy Richard were also lost in thought.
If it is true as Ji Rong said, only a demon lord with the same level of cultivation as Nascent Soul can do all this, then what exactly happened to Ji Ju?
"Teacher, could it be that after she was corrupted by X, she used the power of X to do all this?"
As soon as the good man Richard opened his mouth, he suddenly felt a strong threat coming over him.
"Hey~ I wouldn't have noticed if you hadn't said anything. Isn't this our old acquaintance Miss Richard?"
The white-haired girl turned her head and saw the dark hole of the light cruiser's main gun pointed directly at her head.
Although Mercury still had a smile on his face, he was already standing between her and Lin Lan, his wine-red eyes flashing with deep vigilance.
"Commander, it seems the problem is serious. This guy actually appears here. It must be caused by bad omens!"
Seeing that Mercury Memorial was about to open fire, Lin Lan quickly grabbed the girl's arm and stopped her:
"Wait! The bad omen has been removed from her body and eliminated by me!"
Lin Lan really didn't notice when Mercury Memorial pointed its main gun at the good guy Richard.
With his simple explanation in a few words and the testimony of Miss D, Mercury Memorial finally understood the cause and effect and deflected the naval gun.
"Hi~ Sorry, sorry, it turns out you have joined Minato and become our comrade~"
Mercury Memorial walked up to the good man Richard, held the palm of the aircraft carrier girl who was breathing heavily with both hands, and said with a smile:
"It's mainly because you left a deep impression on Kronstadt and Volga before, so they are just in case. Don't take it to heart."
"I'm actually sorry for causing you so much trouble..."
Seeing that the misunderstanding was resolved, Lin Lan also knew that this was not a place to stay for long.
The corrupted Suzaku that they had just killed along the way would continue to revive, and the main force of the Nightmare Fleet would definitely arrive soon.
Thinking of this, he turned to Ji Rong, who was still in a daze, and said:
"We must hurry up and leave here. Your sister has probably become an evil... an evil demon from outside the domain. It will be too late if we don't leave now!"
After he said this, Ji Rong finally seemed to come back to his senses and nodded bitterly.
At this moment, Ji Rong no longer had the pride of the young patriarch before, but was just a brother who had lost his sister.
As for Shenmu Dongtian, although Lin Lan also knew that leaving it alone would undoubtedly be a disaster.
But now they have no way to fight the main force of the Nightmare Fleet head-on, and they must leave here before the Nightmare Fleet arrives.
However, just as Lin Lan was about to take everyone and the Suzaku away, a deep female voice suddenly sounded from the Lihuo Tree:
"When the Heavenly Dao fell, the seeds had already been planted, and this is the day of the fruition... Where do you want to escape, you Heavenly Demons?
"Welcome your fate and surrender to your savior!"
This female voice was obviously not loud, but it made all the Suzaku suddenly pause.
As if controlled by an invisible restraint, all the Suzaku turned around and knelt in the direction of the Lihuo Tree where the voice came from.
"This voice... Commander, it's Ji Ju! "
Mercury Ji Ji heard who the owner of the voice was, and hurriedly looked at Lin Lan.
Seeing that Lin Lan, the good man Richard, and Miss D were not affected by this inexplicable force, the girl was slightly relieved.
And Lin Lan looked at these Suzaku who suddenly knelt down, his eyes became colder, as if he guessed something.
The next second, a dark red flame column filled with gloomy coldness suddenly burst out from the back of the Nirvana Fire Hall and landed in front of the Suzaku who were kneeling.
In the swirling dark red flame column, a tall woman wearing an ill-fitting and loose black and white robe and long bright red hair walked out slowly.
Her appearance It was about 60% similar to Ji Rong when he transformed. Even without Mercury Memorial's introduction, Lin Lan guessed that this was Ji Ju.
However, Ji Ju's eyes were deep dark silver, flashing a sense of emptiness and vastness that was completely different from his young appearance, looking forward to the past and seeing the future.
The dark red flame column behind Ji Ju went straight to the dark sky, and countless corrupted Suzaku that had just gathered were like black flying insects, circling around the fire column at high speed in the sky.
Ji Ju opened his arms, and the strong extreme force pressure wrapped in the corrosive breath of X suddenly spread out, making the surrounding space darker.
"Heh, that's it."
Lin Lan silently looked at Ji Ju who opened his arms to welcome Suzaku's kneeling, and finally uttered a mocking sneer:
"It seems that this old thing from Yantiansi feels very accomplished to take over a Suzaku."
It was not until he finished speaking that "Ji Ju" finally noticed that there were still four people who did not kneel to her.
