As the ancients said, the right time, the right place, and the right people were the three magical weapons to win the war.
However, for Wang Lu, he didn't have any of these three magical weapons.
In terms of the right time, this was the time when Holy Light Religion was fighting on multiple fronts. The whole religion was in high alert. In terms of the right place, the King's Treasure House was Holy Light Religion's own backyard. As for the right people, in the face of a group of Legends and quasi-Legendaries, how could they talk about the right people?
Any rational person would not choose to fight against Holy Light Religion in such a situation. However, Wang Lu confidently rushed forward, neither calling for help from his sect nor waiting for a better opportunity to appear.
Where did he rely on? Was it really because his immortal cultivation was too smooth that he forgot himself?
Wang Lu, of course, was not that stupid. This time, he rushed into the King's Treasure House. Although it was a risky move, he was taking a risk and not throwing away his life. He had his own assurance of victory.
This assurance was the support of Golden King himself.
Wang Lu had enough confidence to win the support of Golden King.
First, the two sides had the same interests. Holy Light Religion occupying the King's Treasure House was obviously against the will of Golden King himself. However, as a wisp of remnant soul, he did not have the capital to confront it head-on. He was like a king who was a mere figurehead. However, the appearance of Wang Lu gave him the possibility to regain his authority. As a person of Nine Regions, it was impossible for Wang Lu to live here for a long time. Therefore, the long-term interests of the two sides were not contradictory.
Second, Wang Lu's posture was ingenious. With the pride of Golden King, it was impossible for him to admit that he had lost control of the situation. Therefore, Wang Lu never took the initiative to mention any alliance or assistance. Instead, he cautiously maintained a neither servile nor overbearing attitude, neither appearing greedy nor weak. In the first few trials, he fully demonstrated his talent and repeatedly dealt a serious blow to the usurping minister of Holy Light Religion. As for the secret support of Golden King, he accepted it all without being greedy — this was the attitude of a loyal minister to the king.
Third, Wang Lu was talented and his personal ability was against the heaven. He could repeatedly perform miraculous comebacks, which made Golden King very happy. Golden King was naturally willing to generously reward him and support him to continue to move forward.
In summary, although the two sides had never made it clear, Wang Lu was confident that he had indeed won the support of Golden King. And as a remnant soul, what was the value of Golden King's support?
To Wang Lu, it was priceless. No matter how down and out Golden King was, he was still the master of the Treasure House. A little quiet action could benefit people endlessly. Especially from the beginning of the sea of clouds, Golden King seemed to fully trust Wang Lu and spared no effort in his support.
From the starting point of the sea of clouds to the unearthing of the chariot, from the map stored in the station car to the magical joystick … If Wang Lu could win this round, most of the contribution came from Golden King — but this was also a matter of course. Without this kind of support, Wang Lu would not come to court death.
And now, Wang Lu turned out the last card that Golden King gave him, which was also the most powerful card.
The scepter held by the King of Atlantis, the leader who had once led the people to rebel against the Gods. It symbolized that the King would not submit to any God, and the wielder would be immune to all God's powers! It was simply the perfect nemesis of Holy Light Religion!
However, the drawback was that its effectiveness was limited, and in addition to immunity to the divine power, it basically had no other function. Wang Lu held the scepter in his hand for a long time but refused to activate it. It was precisely because for him, even if he could activate the scepter in exchange for a moment of invincibility, he would be powerless to make progress.
However, the arrival of Liu Li reversed everything. The girl had an explosive attack that was far beyond her level. Once she gained immunity, she would become an unstoppable war machine.
“for_kazmodon!”
Holding the scepter, Liu Li was stimulated by the power and involuntarily let out a roar. It was a rough roar that completely did not belong to a girl. The sound waves surged through the sea and set off layers of twisted ripples. Facing the sound waves, the faces of the Holy Light Religion believers were aghast. Because under that roar, they actually felt that it was difficult to resist. Their internal organs were shaken out of place, and the blessing of the Holy Light seemed to have disappeared!
If it were other people, perhaps the effect of immunity to the divine power could only be limited to defense. However, for Liu Li with her Brilliant Sword Heart, it was easy for her to extend this power to attack.
The next moment, the sword qi that swept through thousands of troops swept across with earth-shattering power. The five Archbishops who bore the brunt of the attack didn't even have the time to utter a sound before they were swept by the sword qi. Their bodies were as if they were cut into countless pieces by thousands of knives.
Paul's face was aghast, but as a Holy One, his reaction speed was extremely fast. With a thought, he flashed dozens of miles away into the deep sea area. His life-saving ability was brought into full play.
The Supreme Inquisitor's reaction was faster, but he had just been resurrected, so he couldn't be as flexible as Paul. In the face of the sweeping sword qi, he could only hold his own holy object, the Ruling Sword, in front of his body, hoping that this holy object that was bred in the sea of holy light could resist this disaster for him.
However, after a crisp sound, the Ruling Sword was cut into two. However, the aftermath of the sword qi hasn't been completely offset, so it cut off half of the Supreme Inquisitor's body.
Faceless One was seriously injured, so his performance was even more unbearable. Although he stood at the back, his reaction was also the slowest. After being swept by the sword qi, his body shook and then disintegrated into countless fine powder.
Liu Li's full power strike with the scepter was earth-shattering, which had the power to exterminate the Holy Light Religion. Five Archbishops and one Holy One fell under this sword strike, and Faceless One's body didn't even remain. However, the burden on Liu Li was also extremely heavy. Despite the scepter's support, she still felt a burst of dizziness, and her Jade Mansion tightened as if it was about to burst.
This was a sword strike that completely exceeded her limit. If not for her special physique, this sword strike would have caused her to go berserk. However, seeing that the battle was about to be decided, Wang Lu still didn't stop. He pointed his broken arm forward.
"Go after Paul!"
Without hesitation, Liu Li moved according to his order. Her body turned into a rainbow light, and like a lightning, she rushed toward the direction of Paul's escape. Her momentum was like a sword, and the tens of thousands of tons of deep sea pressure seemed to be nothing, unable to stop her in the slightest.
At the same time, dozens of miles away, Paul, who was still in a state of shock, had yet to regain his composure when he saw a bright light approaching from afar, rapidly approaching.
With his amazing eyesight, Paul's eyes penetrated the darkness of the deep sea and saw that the person who came was Liu Li. It was just that, after the girl's full power strike, she quickly chased after him, so her consumption was quite severe. Especially since the power of the scepter was also rapidly fading, the girl's body continued to shrink.
Being firm and fierce would not last long. Rationally, if Paul turned around and fought back, his winning rate would actually be quite high. Even if he was the most worthless Holy One, he was still a Holy One, so his understanding of power was far above Liu Li. In addition, his own stage was also high, and he gradually got rid of the suppression of Atlantis City. With these several factors combined, he had no reason to be afraid to fight.
If it were Ferdinand, he would definitely turn around and fight back. However, Paul had long been scared out of his wits. Seeing that Liu Li was like a hot knife cutting through butter, he turned around and ran, not daring to stay for even a moment longer.
However, by a stroke of luck, at the beginning, Liu Li's speed was much faster than his. The distance between the two continued to shorten, and after a while, Liu Li found it difficult to continue. Her speed became slower and slower, and the distance between the two gradually widened.
After a while, the power of the scepter completely subsided, and Liu Li returned to normal. The previous overload caused by the internal injury backlash, which made her cough up blood. Seeing this, Paul was overjoyed. If he could catch this woman, he could reverse the situation.
However, just as he turned around to capture Liu Li, he heard the rumbling sound of the surging sea behind him, as if there was a terrifying giant approaching at an extremely fast speed.
Deep sea beast? There's one here too?
Just as this thought appeared in his mind, Paul felt a sharp pain in his back, and then a violent impact bombarded him. The next moment, he felt that his body suddenly became light and fragmented. After that, the endless darkness engulfed him.
Not far away, Liu Li, who had to stop because of the heavy burden, was surprised to see a burst of golden light in front of her. In the middle of the light, the conical tower was lying flat, like a sharp lance. The tip of the lance was still stained with Paul's body fragments.
"Aya … Sister, cough, cough!"
Liu Li slightly opened her mouth, but just as she tried to speak, her mouth was blocked by the blood that gushed out. The girl coughed incessantly, and her slender waist was forced to bend down.
Before long, the Knight King, who was dressed in military uniform, hugged Liu Li and reached out to stroke her back to soothe her injury.
"Liu Li, don't talk, leave the rest to me."
"Okay." The girl nodded, uttered a sweet nasal sound, and then, unable to hold on any longer, fainted.
The Knight King picked up Liu Li and returned to the chariot. The conical tower slowly rotated and gradually accelerated forward. Before long, they arrived at the ruins of Atlantis. In the middle of the ruins, Wang Lu leaned against a broken stone pillar, half lying on the ground. His whole body was covered with wounds, and he looked desolate and miserable. However, the smile on his face was particularly relaxed.
Seeing the slowly approaching chariot, Wang Lu shook his head. "Didn't I tell you to take Little Bai and the others straight to the finish line and leave me alone?"
Aya jumped out of the chariot and said with dissatisfaction, "You said to leave the rest to me, but you didn't say that we should leave you behind."
Wang Lu said, "I thought with your perception, you should understand what I'm talking about."
Aya gave tit for tat. "I thought with your perception, you should understand that I can't leave you alone."
"Tsk, you disobedient ruler of a subjugated country."
"Hey …"
"People who don't know how to give up can't be successful. When you cook, it's because you don't know how to put less seasonings, and you don't use fire when you should, that's why you always make dark cuisine."
"... Is this how you treat your savior?"
Wang Lu laughed. "I caught an unexpected captive, so I'm in a good mood to make fun of you."
"Captive?"
"Faceless One."
"What?" Upon hearing that Wang Lu had captured Faceless One, Aya's shock was no less than the moment when Faceless One appeared and his spirit occupied Liu Li. More than a hundred years ago, when he was still very weak, the church's sharp knife that could give Aya a headache was actually captured?
"Faceless One was captured by you? Where? "
Wang Lu pointed to his head. "Here."
