"Since Pulp Farmer is here, what are we waiting for? Let's begin the siege!"
One of the rookies suggested, and the crowd immediately echoed him.
At this moment, several minutes had passed. If this dragged on any longer, Sunless would safely pass the ten minutes and successfully clear the level.
Even though the chances of him snatching the Death Epaulette in a siege were very low, if he could eliminate Sunless, then there would be one less contestant in the top ten that was nearly impossible to defeat. This was a fatal temptation to every rookie present.
At this moment, Pulp Farmer suddenly said, "Siege? No, all of you can just watch by the side. I said that I will personally eliminate her. There's no need for all of you to interfere, nor are you allowed to interfere! "
When everyone heard this, their expressions changed drastically. They never expected Pulp Farmer to have such an idea.
Immediately, a rookie who was not afraid to speculate on others with the greatest evil intentions said loudly, "You want to monopolize the Death Epaulette? Or are you actually trying to help Sunless clear the level, and are deliberately using the duel to stall for time? "
Someone immediately answered, "He must be helping Sunless. It's said that Pulp Farmer likes Sunless, so how can he bear to do it?"
Everyone began a flurry of discussion.
"Pulp Farmer, you are indeed very strong, but Sunless's official predicted ranking is one place higher than yours. How can you eliminate Sunless alone?"
"There's no need to think about it. He must be helping Sunless. Everyone, do not fall for it!"
"Anyway, I absolutely do not agree with Pulp Farmer's suggestion. If you want to attack, everyone attack together. Let Pulp Farmer be the vanguard. There's no need to discuss anything else!"
"…"
The scene immediately turned into an uproar. They did not believe that Pulp Farmer would attack Sunless to begin with, and now, they refused to believe that Pulp Farmer could eliminate Sunless alone. Obvious conspiracy theories began to surface.
Pulp Farmer's eyes turned extremely cold. Suddenly, he raised his spear and slammed it heavily into the ground, causing the entire ground to tremble.
Everyone jumped in fright. Pulp Farmer was dressed in armor and looked majestic. He exuded a domineering aura that no one dared to look straight at.
Pulp Farmer surveyed the crowd and said with a sneer, "A bunch of fools. Even if a hundred of you attacked together, you will not be Sunless's match. Do you understand? If you don't want to be eliminated now, then stay here obediently. This is not a suggestion, but a warning. If you really want to gang up on me, then come. I can clean up all of you trash in a minute! "
As soon as he said that, everyone was instantly enraged and raised their weapons.
"F * ck, he's so arrogant!"
"Brothers, can you bear it? I want to destroy him! "
"Pulp Farmer, you are courting death!"
"No, he is a scapegoat. He is trying to buy time for Sunless!"
"…"
The rookies were infuriated, so Pulp Farmer did not waste his breath. He raised his spear at the crowd.
Seeing that the battle was about to break out, Feng Yuanlin squeezed out from the crowd and waved his hand, saying, "Everyone, don't be agitated! This is a good thing. What are you trying to stop me from doing? "
Everyone looked at Feng Yuanlin in astonishment. This was a good thing?
Feng Yuanlin said earnestly, "Think about it. If Pulp Farmer were to duel Sunless alone, we would be the fisherman reaping the benefits when the sandpiper and clam fight each other. Once Sunless or Pulp Farmer's duel ends, regardless of the outcome, they would definitely be greatly drained. When that happens, we could charge forward together. When that happens, wouldn't both of them be eliminated? If Pulp Farmer is only helping Sunless stall for time, that's fine. If Sunless can clear the level and escape, where can Pulp Farmer run to? When the time comes, we can join forces to eliminate him. It will also be eliminating a rookie from the top ten. Think about it, is there a big difference between third and fourth place? Let Pulp Farmer eliminate Sunless alone. If we are lucky, we might be able to eliminate both of them together! "
After Feng Yuanlin said that, everyone was dumbfounded. There was a moment of silence.
They realized that what Feng Yuanlin said made sense. They were rendered speechless.
But … But Pulp Farmer is right behind you. Why did you say such a shameless plot just like that? Do you think Pulp Farmer is a fool or a deaf person?
Pulp Farmer laughed instead of being angry. He said with a smile, "Not a bad suggestion. Do as he says. Also, I, Pulp Farmer, have always been open and aboveboard. Since I said that I will personally eliminate Sunless, I will do my best. Not everyone is as vile as you. "
After Pulp Farmer said that, he raised his spear and walked forward. The rookies in front of him struggled, but they eventually chose to make way. Pulp Farmer's aura was like that of a ferocious tiger. They did not have the courage to stop him.
And it had to be said that Feng Yuanlin's words had changed their thinking.
Even if they could not eliminate Sunless, they had a reason to vent their anger on Pulp Farmer. It did not matter which one they eliminated. If they were lucky, they might even be able to eliminate both of them together!
"Let's go. Everyone form a circle. Don't let Pulp Farmer escape!"
Immediately, someone whispered. Everyone echoed and began moving. They formed a circle so that they could attack at any time, as well as prevent Pulp Farmer from escaping.
When Feng Yuanlin saw this, he smiled smugly at Liu Yu and Zhou Chuchu beside him. He said, "How is it? Am I very powerful? Quick, praise me! With just a few words, not only did I stop a fierce battle, I even allowed the three of us to free ourselves. Sigh, I feel like I'm the reincarnation of a Resourceful Star. "
A dark cloud hung over Liu Yu's head as he said, "Aren't you afraid that Pulp Farmer will first kill you out of anger by saying those words?"
Zhou Chuchu rolled her eyes at Feng Yuanlin and said, "Your suggestion is practically tailor-made to scam Pulp Farmer."
Feng Yuanlin smacked his lips and said, "Everything is within my plans. Anyway, Pulp Farmer is just a boorish man. How can he be as beautiful as a fairy like Sunless? Who else can I scam if not him? "
The two of them fell silent. To scam others in such a righteous manner, there's no one else like you.
…
…
Pulp Farmer did not seem to mind how badly Feng Yuanlin's words had scammed him. It was as though he did not care that regardless of the outcome of the battle, he would be surrounded by the others after the battle.
Even though the rookies had formed a large circle around Sunless, surrounding her in a radius of a hundred meters, Pulp Farmer only had eyes for one person.
He only had eyes for the azure-dressed girl in front of him.
However, Sunless did not even look at him. She looked down at the sword in her hand as though there was only the sword in her eyes.
Pulp Farmer did not directly walk into the hundred-meter radius because he knew that if he took another step forward, Sunless' sword beam would immediately slash at him. There would be no hesitation, and the battle would be triggered at any moment.
However, before the battle began, Pulp Farmer had something to say. He looked at Sunless and said, "Everyone thinks that I like you. Even your brother thinks so, but in fact, I'm the same as you. I'm a fanatic. You are a sword fanatic, while I'm a martial arts fanatic. Other than martial arts, I will not like anything else. Not in the past, not now, and definitely not in the future. So, I do not have any feelings for you. "
With this said, the surrounding crowd was astounded. They never expected Pulp Farmer to say such words. It was completely opposite of what they had imagined.
Sunless did not respond, as though she had not heard Pulp Farmer's words.
Pulp Farmer did not expect a response as he continued, "Rumor has it that when I was drunk, I once said that only this woman and this sword are things that I can never forget. This rumor is true, but what I can't forget is the match when I was ten … Back then, I lost. I lost completely. You made me unable to forget that defeat. So, I have always been paying attention to you, desperately chasing after your footsteps. I'm very happy that you are like me, a fanatic. You are infatuated with the way of the sword. You have always been improving and have never stopped. So, I still do not have the confidence to defeat you. "
Pulp Farmer's words stunned the crowd. They never expected that Pulp Farmer's unforgettable loss was the match when he was ten? But to a genius like Pulp Farmer, the number of times he had lost to his peers could be counted on one hand. Perhaps this was the only time.
Pulp Farmer's expression suddenly turned cold as he said, "But I realized that you have recently changed … Other than being infatuated with the way of the sword, you seem to have discovered other things that you like. Hence, your way of the sword has wavered. You are no longer able to wholeheartedly be infatuated with the sword like before. You are no longer the purest sword fanatic! This discovery makes me very disappointed and angry. At the same time, I feel a sense of loss. This is because the Sunless that I need to do my best to chase after is about to disappear! "
Sunless continued ignoring him as she lowered her head to look at her sword. However, her eyes flashed with a look of confusion.
Pulp Farmer took a deep breath and said, "If I'm not wrong, the reason why your infatuation with the way of the sword has wavered is because of a person. That person's name is … Tu Dahei!"
When the three words' Tu Dahei 'were said, the expressions of many rookies changed. In fact, a number of people present had experienced the counterattack on the Demon City. Tu Dahei was the City Destroyer Hero in their hearts!
As for the others, they remembered that the three words had appeared in the official forecast. He was called the 'mudslide' among the rookies, and he was ranked as the most special zeroth.
The three words' Tu Dahei 'seemed to have magical powers. It stirred the minds of many people, and it made Sunless finally raise her head.
Sunless looked up and her gaze finally left the sword. However, it did not land anywhere else. Her unfocused eyes were like drifting duckweed. Anyone could tell that her beautiful eyes were filled with confusion.
"I believe that you have yet to truly recognize your feelings. This is because you are a pure sword fanatic. Other than the sword, your other emotions are nearly nonexistent. On this point, I'm inferior to you."
Pulp Farmer said in a deep voice, "But you are already confused. This is the best proof. I will only ask you once. No, you should seriously ask yourself once. Do you like Tu Dahei? "
Everyone immediately held their breaths. They never expected to hear such an explosive topic. The purest sword fanatic, the snow lotus that could only be seen from afar, Sunless, had actually fallen in love with Tu Dahei?
How would Sunless answer this question? How long would it take for her, who did not know anything about feelings, to figure out this problem?
However, something that exceeded everyone's expectations happened. Sunless nodded without any hesitation. She even said two words softly.
"Like."
Like. She liked Tu Dahei.
Previously, Heartless had asked this question. Back then, she liked the sword arts heritage that Tu Dahei had given her. She liked the aura of the sword on Tu Dahei's body, and she liked the sword sparring that she had with Tu Dahei. Hence, she nodded and answered yes. Back then, she believed that her answer was like.
But in fact, back then, she only liked swords!
Be it the sword arts heritage, the aura of the sword, or the sword sparring, they were all swords. As for Tu Dahei, he was just an acceptable prefix.
But now, Sunless did not think so.
She had seen the hard work that Tu Dahei had put in for Mozzie and Kevin.
She remembered the wise words that Tu Dahei had taught her when he taught her the Kun Peng.
Back when they encountered the Thousand Eye Demon Sovereign, Tu Dahei had forced himself to act as the bad guy. He had wisely saved them and bravely lured the Thousand Eye Demon Sovereign away. He had even succeeded in conquering the Thousand Eye Demon Sovereign, making Sunless feel shocked for the first time.
That was a Level Lord. With their present strength, it was a terrifying existence that they could not put up any resistance against. Yet, Tu Dahei was able to deal with it so perfectly. His wisdom, courage, kindness, and sacrifice … If it were anyone else in Sunless' and Mozzie's shoes, they would be touched and impressed.
Therefore, Sunless changed her mind.
She still liked things that had to do with swords, but the prefix of Tu Dahei was no longer an existence that could be ignored. Instead, it was a unique and indispensable existence!
Sunless nodded her head firmly. Her confusion did not lie in whether she liked Tu Dahei or not, but whether her liking Tu Dahei had shaken her obsession with swords.
This was because she felt that … her swords had improved a little!
This was something that should not have happened. Her swords were an obsession. By liking other people or things, it should have weakened. Why did it strengthen instead?
This made Sunless fall into a state of confusion.
The crowd naturally did not know why Sunless was confused. They thought that Sunless had finally steeled her heart because of Pulp Farmer's question.
Everyone lamented and sighed.
"Heavens, the goddess in my heart has actually fallen for him."
"Fuck, this Pulp Farmer is a professional helper, right?"
"This helper … I suspect that Pulp Farmer is hired by Tu Dahei to drag things out!"
"…"
Pulp Farmer never expected Sunless to give such a firm answer. His eyes immediately turned cold as he said coldly, "You are no longer the Sunless of the past. To be so determined in liking someone, your obsession with swords will definitely be greatly weakened. I'm very, very disappointed! Therefore, I want to take back the victory that I entrusted to you. If possible, I hope that the defeat of this battle will wake you up! "
As Pulp Farmer said that, he took a step forward.
With this step, he stepped into the forbidden zone that spanned a hundred meters.
Sunless did not hesitate as she slashed out with her sword. The sword beam that swept out like a hurricane made the surrounding rookies shut their mouths in fright.
Pulp Farmer's eyes were cold as he raised his spear and stabbed at the sword wind that swept at him!
