Chapter 220: 2 vs 1
Mu Ling stood calmly in the pouring rain, letting the rain soak her black clothes from inside to outside.
She silently waited for her opponent.
Her fair hand rested on the scabbard, ready to settle all the causes and effects.
That woman, she's here.
Yin has changed into a white nun's attire, her eyes still covered by a black cloth, and she has arrived here with three black-clothed men wearing gray masks.
She sensed that the person waiting there was Mu Ling.
Yin fell into a brief contemplation.
The master is right. The so-called "Savior" of Babel Tower is also a powerful prophet who will arrange enemies on the path of Black Star Faction.
Yin just didn't expect... that the enemy she would face tonight would be her once closest friend.
If possible, she wouldn't want to kill Mu Ling with her own hands.
"You three leave here and, as the master said, go destroy everything in Platinum Zone," Yin ordered calmly to her three subordinates.
The only task that Ramos gave her was to attack the nobles in Platinum Zone.
Perhaps, it is also for her to be able to take revenge.
"Mu Ling, the people you're protecting now are the nobles who established unreasonable rules and laws that made me lose almost everything," Yin said silently.
"If I hadn't met my master in the wilderness, there wouldn't be the present me."
She paused briefly and then continued speaking:
"But I no longer hate them now. These people live in a false world, and for the sake of a little power, they scheme and fight each other. It's pitiful and pathetic."
"They and everyone in this world need our redemption."
"We want to present a new world in which anyone can find happiness."
Mu Ling slowly drew her sword. Her body was being controlled by the "Savior" at that moment, but it didn't prevent the white-haired girl from speaking amidst the pouring rain.
"I know your doctrine... I have studied it."
"You believe that this world is false, and that only by allowing your soul to reach the surface of the Chaos Star can you attain eternal happiness in the so-called 'real world'...but in my opinion, this is just a false hope, a delusion."
Yin shook her head and said, "No, you still don't understand. I have been to the real world before, and even returned from it."
Mu Ling fell completely silent.
At that moment, she was certain that her childhood friend had completely lost her mind.
Some things are irretrievable.
What needs to be done now is to make the most justifiable decision for oneself in the present moment.
She felt she could move freely now, just like when she was fighting with "Mr. Mystery", the "Savior" gave her the power to act at the end.
Let yourself choose!
"You think this world is false, but for me, all the pain, all the anger, all the joy and happiness are real and not illusory."
Mu Ling has already disappeared into the darkness, leaving behind the last words.
"And I will never allow you to destroy all of this!"
Silent, without a word, three elite members of the Black Star Faction turned and left, not intervening in their battle.
However, they had not taken a few steps when suddenly they took out weapons and attacked the people beside them.
All three of them fell down.
Yin still remained calm.
A person suddenly appeared out of nowhere in the dark and stormy rain. She seemed to have vanished into thin air a moment ago, and even Yin had not been able to notice.
That is a golden-haired little girl wearing a black raincoat. She has an absolute beauty that is no less than Mu Ling's, and her emerald-like beautiful eyes are difficult to ignore.
The power of mind control caused three elite members of the Black Star Faction to instantly turn on each other and kill themselves.
Maryse had long known that there was an important task tonight, so she took a shower in advance, went to the toilet, and then put on a thick black raincoat and tall rain boots.
However, it was of no use, she was still drenched inside and out by the storm.
In the pouring rain, Maryse took a deep breath and looked towards Mu Ling, saying loudly, "Nightsaber, I can't control her at all. The gap is too big!"
Looking sadly at Mu Ling, Yin said, "So it turns out you're no longer Mu Ling, but only Nightsaber, the Hound of Babel Tower... and now you have new friends."
Mu Ling didn't respond to her old friend with words, but with the blade!
Deep Blue World.
The next moment, Mu Ling had already arrived in front of Yin.
Rainwater ran down on her cheeks as she calmly thrust the blade, filled with deathly aura, through the enemy's chest, piercing the heart.
It's over... the girl took a deep breath.
"No, it's not over yet, Mu Ling."
Yin still looked at the other person with sadness and calmly said, "I will not die now."
--
"The Undefeated".
Ramos actually thought that this title was too much of a self-praise, although he had indeed never experienced failure since becoming the leader of the Black Star Faction.
Powerful divination magic gave him many advantages to seize.
However, he discovered that the Savior of the Babel Tower seemed to have even stronger divination abilities... his own power was completely useless against Babel Tower.
However, the other party was able to pick out the members hidden by the Black Star Faction one by one from the megacity with a population of tens of millions.
Ramos habitually tried to use divination magic to calculate the opponent's movements, but he found that the results became chaotic and ineffective whenever it involved "Babel Tower".
He could only keep an eye on Demon Hunt Agency in Tatsumi City, but had no idea what Babel Tower would do tonight.
"So, it is only natural that the Savior and members of Babel Tower would also know the blessing of the Chaos Star."
Ramos stood calmly with his hands behind his back in the hall, with three constantly rotating playing cards behind him. The names "Ramos", "Tao Wu", and "Yin" were written on them respectively.
As long as the blessing is not destroyed, no matter how serious their injuries are, the three of them will never die.
Even if burnt to ashes, the soul will still attach to the ashes, continuing to "live" until the end of the universe.
It is both a great blessing and the most terrifying curse.
Suddenly, there was another man in the hall, and it was unclear when he had appeared.
He was wearing a classical black robe, with slightly curled black hair, brown pupils and a serene smile on his face.
Bai Yan took a deep breath, shook off the rain on his body, and calmly said, "After all this time, I finally meet you officially, Mr. Ramos."
After a moment of silence, Ramos adjusted his silver glasses and asked, "Your words seem to imply something. Could it be that you have seen me somewhere before?"
"Can you guess?"
Bai Yan smiled and said, "I know that your excessive power of prophecy allows you to always seek advantage and avoid harm. Not only did you adopt many future strong individuals in advance to work for you, but you also infiltrated a highly placed king in the Hundred Kings Assembly. It can be said that you, single-handedly, have enabled the Black Star Faction to grow rapidly over the past few decades..."
"However, it's a pity that your direct combat capabilities are not strong enough among the Crown contenders, and you are temporarily unable to use important Civilization-level Relics due to the Queen of the Scarlet Moon's reasons."
Ramos interrupted and said,
"But do you really think you have a chance against me, Profligate? The intelligence I gathered in advance has already mentioned your 'mighty' strength."
"Perhaps, even if we are both Crowns, we still have a significant gap between us."
Ramos gazed at Profligate, knowing that this was his opponent tonight. Instead, he breathed a sigh of relief.
The prophecy was wrong, maybe because of the Savior...
The enemy that Ramos had originally calculated for tonight was actually the "Queen of the Scarlet Moon", a very powerful blood clan... The bigger reason why she was easily surrounded and seriously injured by the Black Star Faction was that she didn't release all her power.
"What is restraining her after all?" Ramos is not sure, but he knows that this is a terrifying opponent.
"Well, perhaps I really am not your match alone."
Bai Yan nodded gently and said with a smile, "But I have a friend nearby who can support me at any time."
"I believe in his power," he narrowed his eyes and spoke with great determination.
At this moment, Alan, who is being controlled by the 'Savior', has already arrived outside the villa.
He was dressed in a purple suit, wearing a smiling mask, like a funny magician.
For some reason, Alan feels a bit of pain in his heart at this moment.
What happened?
He always felt that something bad had happened, but he was not sure what it was. Alan could only follow INT and instinctively looked in the direction of the Demon Hunt Agency.
"What is going on? Demon Hunt Agency must have been attacked...nothing bad could have happened, right?"
Alan shook his head suddenly. Now is not the time to think about these things. He must stay focused... and fight side by side with Mr. Profligate!
Their enemy is none other than the legendary "the Undefeated"!
How can you distract yourself at a time like this?
Alan didn't know Mr. Profligate, yet he could feel that he was a reliable person.
Moreover, he didn't know why, but when Alan discovered that his partner today was Profligate, he suddenly felt a faint sense of familiarity and trust in his heart.
Ramos stared at the enemy before him with folded arms, shook his head gently and let out a sigh.
"So be it."
"I'll give it my all right here against all of you challengers!"
He slowly raised both hands and began to unleash his powerful "innate power" without reservation.
Suddenly, Bai Yan and Alan both sensed that all the people hiding in their rooms throughout the Dawn District had a faint white mist emanating from their bodies. This resulted in an exaggerated celestial phenomenon visible only to supernaturals, which flowed incessantly and clearly toward them in the darkness of the night.
Finally, a large amount of white mist gathered on Ramos, and his eyes became even clearer.
Bai Yan knew what they were, something that everyone possesses, an intangible yet real existence...luck!
