Chapter 18
"But... such sacrifice is meaningless. We now have the opportunity to choose!"
Standing next to the Guardian's desk, Cocolia looked at Bronya coldly: "You can leave, Bronya, the visitors have arrived."
Bronya wanted to say something, but when she found out that the visitors were Pei Guang and Xing, who she wanted to communicate with last night but failed, her eyes widened.
"Mother! They are..."
Before she finished her words, Cocolia expelled her again: "Bronya, I say! You can leave."
After a moment of silence, Bronya's voice calmed down: "Yes, mother."
Feeling Cocolia's anger, Bronya opened her mouth and turned away. Before leaving, she remembered Pei Guang's appearance for the third time.
Last night, when she went back, Pei Guang and Xing had disappeared, and only some trash cans were left at the scene. Today, she communicated with her mother Cocolia. Bronya was sure that the other party was an alien. At the same time, she heard the golden light that shot into the sky and the star destroyer that Pei Guang talked about when communicating with Xing.
A ship that can destroy a planet must be able to take away all the people in Beloberg. Although the other party may not respond to the request, Bronya thinks that it is worth a try to make a request to Pei Guang and his party for such an opportunity, even if the success rate is very small.
But she didn't expect that her mother would directly refuse, and the previous policies would continue to be implemented, and even...
She remembered Pei Guang's appearance, and she was ready to wait for Pei Guang and his party to come out outside. This time, she must not let Pei Guang run away.
Cocolia also looked at Jeppard at this time: "The messenger has told me about them, Jeppard, you can go out. By the way, let Bronya wait for my order outside."
Jeppard didn't say much and turned and left.
With Jeppard's departure, only Cocolia and Pei Guang and his party of four were left in the entire Klipperburg.
Watching everyone leave, Pei Guang whispered: "See! She is clearing the venue. The plot is over and there will be a big fight."
Xing: "I'm ready."
Cocolia only saw them communicating carefully and didn't hear the words, so she was still calm: "Welcome! Visitors from outside the cold wave... no, from the sky, right? I am Cocolia Rand, the guardian of Beloberg, and I am here to listen to your intentions."
Xing introduced herself directly: "How do you know where we are from? Don't you doubt us?"
Cocolia smiled: "No, I don't doubt it. I can see that you are not from this world. The city builders remember history and can strengthen their hearts. I know the distant past..."
Faced with the conversation, Pei Guang didn't listen to a word. Because in his opinion, this battle is inevitable. The empty venue, the single enemy, and the unfriendly tone, what does this mean? Does it mean that a fight is about to start?
While Xing and Cocolia were communicating, Pei Guang moved his position and came to the side of March Seven, and blocked Cocolia's sight with his body. Sanyueqi also understood what Pei Guang was going to do. They were fighting side by side. When Pei Guang made this move, it proved that he was protecting the main C.
As an auxiliary and part-time main C, Sanyueqi was ready to shield Pei Guang.
"We are here to do the mission."
Pei Guang's attention was still focused on how to start a team fight, but Xing suddenly mentioned the mission. He subconsciously turned his head and looked at Xing: "Mission? Where is the mission? I only saw the BOSS!"
Sanyueqi: "Who understands what you are talking about!"
Danheng also realized that the atmosphere was wrong and took over the conversation. However, at this time, Pei Guang had a trash can lid on his head, his left arm holding the trash can lid, and his right hand pointed the wooden sword at Cocolia.
"Dan Heng! Stop talking. The old woman didn't want to save the world, let alone solve the star core. It's useless to say more to her."
After speaking to Dan Heng, Pei Guang interrupted the angry Cocolia: "We told you that we were going to find the star core, and you gave us doubts? You told me that you don't know what the star core is?"
This sentence made Cocolia laugh: "Yes, we have encountered these disasters, but..."
Before she finished her words, Pei Guang said directly: "Your next sentence is, what does it have to do with you, right?"
Because Pei Guang's words were more than Cocolia's, Ya was a beat faster, so after Pei Guang said it, she repeated Pei Guang's words: "What does it have to do with you?"
Cocolia's face turned pale, and Pei Guang said slowly: "Our mission is to seal the star core. After the mission is completed, we have our rewards, and as long as the star core is killed, your world will be safer."
Cocolia suppressed her anger and looked at Pei Guang with an awkward smile on her face: "You..."
Pei Guang spoke a beat faster than Cocolia: "What are you going to say next, "Do you have a way to seal that thing called the star core?"
Cocolia: "Do you have a way to seal that thing called the star core?"
Cocolia's face became worse. The rhythm was completely controlled by the stranger, which put her in a very disadvantageous situation. She wanted to order him to leave.
But Pei Guang spoke before she could finish her words. This time, Kokolia had the experience and chose to keep silent.
But Pei Guang still guessed what she was going to do.
"It stands to reason that our interests are the same, but you don't want to seal the star core, or even verify whether our words are true or false, because you want to use the star core to completely destroy the world. Because of this, you have no intention of sealing the star core even though you know what the star core is. So what you have to do next is to let us go back and rest, and you will privately mobilize soldiers to arrest us tomorrow while saying that you will provide us with as much assistance as possible. Do you think I am right?"
Chapter 37 Kokolia: "In terms of fighting wits, you are not as good as me!"
At this moment, Kokolia's teeth were chattering with anger. Because Pei Guang guessed all her thoughts, there was no mistake, not a single mistake.
Where is Pei Guang? He showed an excited smile on his face and pointed his sword at Kokolia: "What else do you want to say?"
Looking at this scene, Dan Heng sighed helplessly. But he did not stop it, because this time he was deliberately testing Pei Guang and Xing. No matter what Pei Guang and Xing chose to do, as long as it did not violate the most basic principles, he would not intervene. But why did he feel so overwhelmed?
After that, Pei Guang took the wooden sword and took two steps forward, and pointed the sword at Cocolia: "Come on! Let me guess. Your first step is to doubt our intentions. Your suspicion seems logical, but in fact it is full of loopholes. You will say, 'If there is really a star core that caused the disaster, there is no connection with us, and I don't believe that we will go to great lengths to help a world that has nothing to do with us and has no intention, right?'"
Cocolia did not speak, but her face, which looked like pig liver, proved that Pei Guang's guess was correct.
Pei Guang sneered: "Real games are good, the reactions are so real. I have killed at least 800 bosses like you. You pretended to know nothing and even sneered at the kindness of outsiders. Do you know what your biggest mistake is? As a senior executive, especially a leader in the end times, you pursue survival, which is the first need of civilization. When facing us who can solve the survival crisis, the first thing you think of is not to verify the authenticity of our words for survival. Instead, you drive away the possibility of survival. What is your intention, Kokolia?"
Kokolia wanted to speak, but Pei Guang interrupted her spell again before she could finish her words.
"What do you want to say we know? Sorry, I know everything. I once survived in a temperature of minus 150 degrees Celsius, relying on a heater to protect the unruly people who wanted to go to prostitutes at night. In the end, you thought about how to frame us, arrest us after we leave, or even kill us."
"Everything you do is to accelerate the destruction of this world and the demise of civilization."
"But if you can become a great guardian, then the background of the story should not be so stupid. Let me guess, is it that your important relatives died? Then the star core told you that it can revive your relatives, it..."
Before Pei Guang finished his words, the temperature in the room dropped rapidly.
Dan Heng was ready to take action. Based on Pei Guang's description and the other party's changes, he could be sure that the other party should have been eroded by the star core. Being eroded and seduced by the star core, this kind of thing has happened in many worlds.
But at this moment, Cocolia smiled brightly, and the temperature in the room returned to normal.
As a great guardian, although Cocolia has fallen into madness, her ability to judge people has not disappeared. She smiled brightly and said, "Silvermane Guard! Yes, assassin."
Outside Cribb Castle, Jeppard had called Bronya to the door to wait for the order, but when he heard the word "assassin", he rushed over almost immediately. In addition, the Silvermane Guards who had been deployed to the vicinity of Cribb Castle by Cocolia for various reasons also rushed over when they heard the assassin.
"?"
Pei Guang almost had a question mark on his head. Why did this boss do the opposite? It was also thanks to his habit of making more life-saving preparations before the boss, and he was ready to run away in advance.
In fact, Pei Guang guessed wrong in one place. Cocolia didn't want to kill him when he knew the truth. Instead, when she heard Jeppard say that someone could buff the Silvermane Guards, she was ready to kill Pei Guang and his group. What she wanted was the whole world to be reborn in the Rift, not the Silvermane Guards who rekindled their fighting spirit. She wanted to ban the song and kill the people.
She had finally used various methods to reduce the faith and fighting power of the Silver Mane Guards, and suddenly a song ignited their fighting spirit? This is not good. So from the very beginning, she planned to ruin Pei Guang and his group. Let them do nothing, and at the same time, she was ready to speed up the action.
What could ruin their reputation more than being assassins?
Pei Guang discovered the truth? Was he an outsider? So what? Just order all the Silver Mane Guards to kill him, kill him at all costs, and see if he will kill everyone. It would be a good thing if a few more Silver Mane Guards could be killed, so that her plan could be executed faster.
What if the truth is made public? She, Kokolia, is the Great Guardian, and Pei Guang and his group are outsiders after all.
The Silver Mane Iron Guards moved very quickly. When Pei Guang and his group were preparing to fight, the Silver Mane Iron Guards had already broken through the door.
Jeppard immediately gave way to the exit: "Protect Lord Kokolia!"
If he blocked it, he was worried that Pei Guang and his group would hurt Kokolia in a desperate struggle. Only by leaving a way out and letting them have a way out can Kokolia be safe.
Kokolia smiled at this time: "What can you do to me? In terms of fighting wits, my calculations are better than yours!"
"..."
While Pei Guang was silent, March 7 looked at Pei Guang: "How about? Let's run?"
Dan Heng reminded: "It seems that she has long planned not to let us leave. You have done a good job."
Dan Heng noticed Kokolia's expression and the speed of the surrounding iron guards. If they were a few minutes slower or there were fewer people, he believed that Pei Guang would have a way to get rid of Kokolia. But now, seeing Pei Guang's frown, he knew that Pei Guang had no way out.
But do you blame Pei Guang? No, not only did he not think Pei Guang did anything wrong, but he felt that Pei Guang had been very well prepared.
Before coming, he had improved everyone's comprehensive strength, and at the same time, he did not attack rashly, but attacked the heart first, waiting for the other party to take the initiative or expose themselves, and then attacked.
As for being caught? It doesn't matter if it's one day earlier or later. Pei Guang's analysis is correct based on this situation. Even if they leave today, they will still be caught later or tomorrow, and they still have to run away.
On the contrary, the face-to-face confrontation allowed them to find the correct direction, and the next action was also more convenient.
Xing: "Are we going to be caught?"
Pei Guang: "Stupid! The plot kills, so we must run away. How can you kill all the NPCs in the game to complete the task? If you kill them all, the magical branch will be gone."
When Xing thought of the possibility of getting Jin Cancan in the future, he decided to run away.
Sanyueqi behind Pei Guang suddenly thought of something and laughed excitedly: "Eh? I won? How did I win?"
Sanyueqi never expected that she would lose the bet she made with Pei Guang on the train. After all, the journey was too smooth. Looking at Pei Guang's final performance, as long as he angered the other party and successfully took action, he would win.
The materials Pei Guang gave her made her understand the fate of guarding more deeply. The shield she released could also withstand more attacks, plus this time it was four against one! How could they lose?
But who would have thought that the other party had planned it in advance and even prepared to use soldiers to delay. Although they could kill them all, their mission was to seal the star core, not to fight and kill.
Sanyueqi asked excitedly at this time: "Are we running away now? But A Guang, you lost! We are misunderstood and will be caught, hehe~ You lost~"
Pei Guang: "Lost, lost~!"
Pei Guang sighed: "What a pity, our main task is to find the star core, seal the star core, and resolve the crisis brought by the star core. Wushuang can indeed get the star core directly, but killing irrelevant people will reduce the task evaluation."
Dan Heng: "For now, running away is indeed the best choice, but are you prepared to run away?"
Pei Guang: "Of course! I am ready to fail the first wave of challenges because of the plot, but we have to rush out first."
Xing heard Pei Guang's words and remembered what Pei Guang did last night: "Is it that?"
Pei Guang: "Yes! That's it!"
And at this moment, Dan Heng's evaluation of Pei Guang was much higher. As a pioneer, you have to adapt to circumstances and be able to advance or retreat when necessary. No! To be precise, he was very optimistic about Pei Guang since he met him.
Although he looks crazy, he can prepare many things in advance. But when he sees what Pei Guang prepared for him, I guess this evaluation will directly become negative.
Chapter 38: Unconventional Road, Roadside Trash Can
Since Pei Guang has prepared, then follow Pei Guang's preparations.
Looking at the iron guards getting closer and closer, Dan Heng spoke.
"Guan Yu Fan San..."
Dan Heng just opened his mouth, Xing subconsciously replied: "Three minds and two minds."
Pei Guang: "Unexpected!"
March Seven: "Here..., wait, don't play idioms! This is the old code of the train group. When we count to one, we will run. Where are you going, Guang?"
Pei Guang adjusted the things in his backpack to the order that was convenient for taking out, and replied: "I didn't play idioms. You will run with me later. What I am best at is not taking the ordinary road."
Dan Heng remembered Pei Guang's words and continued: "The king's orders are unchangeable..."
Pei Guang's hint was even more clear to Xing and March Seven. When Pei Guang fought with him, when did he ever take the right path? He would tear down whatever he wanted and walk in whatever way was convenient.
Because of the long distance, neither Cocolia nor Jeppard and his group who surrounded them could hear their conversation, and Bronya was also a little confused at this time. Something was wrong at the scene, very wrong. They said there was an assassin, but the problem was that Pei Guang and his group were very far away from Cocolia and had no intention of taking action. How could it be an assassin?
"Borrow one from the city!"
Pei Guang took the lead. He had a lot of projectiles in his backpack, and at this moment, all the projectiles were thrown out.
"Take my bombs!"
All the suspicious items wrapped in the black bag were thrown out.
Jeppard rushed forward without any hesitation to deploy the shield to resist the explosion. He didn't expect Pei Guang and his group to be so crazy and prepare so many bombs. He felt very regretful. If he didn't trust him so much...
Jeppard was ready to die, and even Cocolia subconsciously took a few steps back when she saw so many "bombs". Out of instinct, some iron guards subconsciously closed their eyes, and some who were not afraid of death opened their arms to resist the explosion and help their comrades survive.
The soldiers who reacted quickly even raised their guns to smash all the dozens of "bombs" in the air.
"Mother!"
Bronya also instinctively rushed to Cocolia. Looking at so many "bombs", Bronya had only one idea at this time, that is, to protect her mother.
With so many bombs, Kokolia subconsciously prepared to block them. However, when everyone was ready to die, they found that these things did not explode, but instead they were covered with sticky, soft things with various odors.
At this moment, when the rotten egg liquid flowed down her face, Kokolia's mentality collapsed: "Kill them!!!"
This is garbage, which Pei Guang collected last night. Pei Guang collected these garbage well and packed them in garbage bags from the Black Tower Space Station. However, the others are all real garbage, and the smell can be removed by washing. The ones thrown to Kokolia are not real, but they are filled with rotten eggs. As for how it smells? Anyway, Pei Guang didn't smell it and didn't know how it smelled, but Kokolia could definitely experience its beauty.
And when he suddenly threw out such a large amount of garbage with a bomb in his mouth, it also made these people subconsciously block it. Pei Guang wanted their subconscious blocking action.
Pei Guang admitted that these soldiers were very conscious. Even if such a wave of soldiers still blocked the gate, who told them that they were going to go through the gate?
Look, when they were trying to block him, he and his men smashed a hole in the wall and ran away.
Go through the front? How is that possible? As a player, if there is a choice, I will not go through the front door.
"Damn it!"
