"He's yours!" After venting for a while, Wallace said with a complicated expression.
Right now, his heart was filled with complex emotions. Number Four had already confirmed the fact that he was Number Two's murderer. Even if he wanted to protect Number Four, it was impossible.
Although Number Four's death was his own doing, as their boss and person in charge, Wallace's prestige had taken a hit.
Furthermore, his subordinates and Everyard's subordinates were already hostile to begin with. Now, it seemed that the conflict had worsened.
However, they were in the wrong in this matter, so they could only suffer in silence.
Wallace brought his Haeruga and Squid King to the side, exposing Number Four, who was lying in the deep pit behind him, to the sight of Everyard and his elves.
"Ugh, ugh, ugh …" Although Number Four had lost his ability to express himself, he could still see everything clearly. Moreover, because the intense pain had passed, the continuous pain made his mind sharper. He thought that he had already seen everything clearly, but he could not express himself due to his injuries.
Although he didn't know why Aoki was trying so hard to frame him, he really wanted to tell everything.
Indeed, Number Two had died in his hands. He could accept death, but what he couldn't accept was that Aoki was actually able to watch the show from the side. More importantly, Aoki, who was clearly the main culprit, was completely fine. Aoki had reaped all the benefits while Number Four became the scapegoat.
In his mind, the only reason why Aoki was doing this could only be because he wanted to take all the benefits for himself.
Unfortunately, when he saw Eveyard walk up to him and look down at him from above, there was no pity in his eyes. There was only rage and insanity.
Never try to reason with a madman, especially when he seemed to be holding the truth in his hands. No one jumped out to explain to Number Four. Thus, under the furious and deranged Everyard's control, not a single trace was left behind on the entire field. Even the pit created by Wallace's superpower couldn't be seen.
Number Four seemed to have disappeared into thin air, leaving no trace behind.
It was as if nothing had happened, but Aoki could clearly feel that the people standing on both sides of him, Number One, who was Wallace's subordinate, was filled with sadness, while Number Five, who was standing on the other side, was filled with joy.
This kind of emotion wasn't intentionally displayed by everyone. It was just that when they saw the scene of Number Four being dealt with by Eveyard, they subconsciously expressed it from their hearts.
Those who saw this scene would subconsciously put themselves in the role, imagining that they might be Number Four, or Number Two who had already died at the beginning.
It was just that this group of people who didn't know the truth often had one-sided views.
Aoki wasn't the only one who noticed this. Wallace, whose expression was still complicated, also noticed this scene.
Why did he try to protect Eveyard after Eveyard took out No. 4's energy ball? Wasn't it because he was afraid that something like this would happen?
It was no longer important whether Number Four had done something or whether she was the murderer.
What was important was that as their boss, as their person in charge, he failed to protect his subordinates. Not only among his subordinates, but also among Eveyard's subordinates, and even in the eyes of those who were watching the show, his prestige had plummeted.
In fact, if he had dealt with Number Four himself, it might have been better. At least it would have been much better than Eveyard dealing with her.
But Eveyard was a lunatic, a complete lunatic. Wallace understood him. In that state, if he wasn't given an outlet to vent, he wouldn't stop going crazy. When the time came, he might be the one to suffer, so he chose to give in.
But when he saw the depressed mood of everyone present, Wallace also felt a little regretful. Unfortunately, what was done couldn't be undone. Even if he regretted it now, it wouldn't be of much use.
Looking at Eveyard who gradually regained his calm, Wallace took a deep breath and forcefully suppressed the displeasure in his heart.
Anyone who was' forced 'to experience this would feel displeased, let alone Wallace who was also a powerhouse.
But as a rational person, when facing a lunatic, he was so passive. It was like a scholar meeting a soldier.
"Eveyard, what's the situation with Number Six?" Wallace asked when he saw that Eveyard had fully recovered.
The problem with Number Two had been resolved. Now, he and Eveyard each lost a person, so they were even. Number Four had also died a worthy death.
Hearing Wallace's question, Eveyard, who had regained his calm, froze and looked somewhat conflicted.
Seeing Eveyard's expression, Wallace instinctively realized something. He frowned and shouted in a deep voice, "Eveyard!"
Aoki, who had been paying attention to the changes in the situation, couldn't help but smile. Number Four's death was only the fuse. This time, it was the real bombshell!
Eveyard didn't speak for a long time. But the more he didn't speak, the more Wallace felt that something was wrong.
"Eveyard!! Don't force me! "This was already the third time Wallace had shouted his name.
Eveyard knew that he couldn't avoid it. He had just gone crazy and vented his anger. He didn't have any intention of going crazy again in a short period of time. And he also knew that he might have tricked Wallace a little.
With a flick of his hand, he threw out two more energy balls. They were also energy balls with superpowers. However, only one of the two energy balls matched the superpower of the people present. The other energy ball did not match the superpower of the people present on the scene.
But everyone knew who the owner of these two superpower energy balls was. One of them matched the superpower of Number Five who was standing not far from Aoki. Obviously, the owner was him. As for the other one, it was the superpower of Number Two who didn't appear today and died in the hands of Number Four!
In an instant, the appearance of these two energy balls was like throwing a heavy bomb into the originally deathly silent square!
The meaning was very clear. Number Six who didn't come was the same as Number Two. They were dealt with by someone. And it seemed that the person who dealt with Number Six was the already dead Number Two and the currently stunned Number Five.
Originally, Number Five still had the intention of watching a good show. After all, Number Six was Wallace's subordinate and didn't have much to do with them. Back then, when Everyard threw out the two superpower energy balls, one of them even perfectly matched his superpower, which made him unable to react for a moment.
His relationship with Number Two wasn't bad, but this wasn't bad. It was like the relationship between Bartlem and Number Four in the past. They had a relationship where they learned from each other and improved.
Number Two's death made him a little surprised, but it was only a little surprised.
But how come he didn't know that he had attacked Number Six?
At most, there were some small conflicts. But Number Six's strength really couldn't even be considered average in his eyes. After the small conflict between the two sides, the tactful Number Six didn't dare to cross his border again.
"Sir!! Sirs! This wasn't done by your subordinate!! " Number Five immediately ran out and shouted loudly. He was really afraid, afraid that he would be dealt with like Number Four without saying a word. So, Number Five rushed out first.
And to be honest, unlike Number Four, Number Five's strength was already considered one of the top people here. He also had a certain level of strength. Although he wasn't a match for Wallace and Eveyard, at least he wasn't completely defenseless. Although the more he resisted, the more miserable he would be.
At this moment, Number Five's voice rang and pulled everyone back from their daze.
A good show was about to start!
Wallace widened his eyes and stared at the two energy balls on the ground, as well as Number Five who rushed out from the crowd and couldn't wait to explain.
However, Eveyard twisted his body and blocked Wallace's line of sight towards Number Five with his own body.
Could it be … Before Number Four dealt with Number Two, Number Two and Number Five attacked Number Six together?!
Wallace wasn't the only one who had this thought. Everyone else on the scene had the same thought.
Immediately after, the atmosphere on the battlefield changed. Originally, when Number Four attacked Number Two, it was indeed Wallace's group that was in the wrong, so they could only watch as Number Four was dealt with by Eveyard. In the end, they didn't even have the chance to say a single word. However, the way he insisted on speaking at the end was imprinted in everyone's minds.
It was a stark contrast to Number Five who couldn't wait to explain.
Why?!
Why did their people have the chance to explain after doing something wrong, but their own people didn't even have the chance to explain after doing something wrong?!
Was it just because the leaders of both sides were different?!
Wallace's subordinates couldn't help but feel even more aggrieved. Some of them even had the thought that being Wallace's subordinates wasn't worth it at all.
Although Eveyard's personality was changeable and he would go crazy from time to time, he was really good to his subordinates. As long as they didn't take the initiative to make a mistake, Eveyard was definitely a very protective person. In addition, he even beat himself up when he went crazy, which made Wallace hesitate to take action. He didn't dare to cross the line too much, which made Eveyard's subordinates even more fearless.
Number Five who rushed out at this moment was the best proof. Although he was nervous, at least he had the right to speak. Besides, his main target of explanation was Eveyard and not Wallace.
Wallace shifted his gaze from Number Five to Eveyard, speaking with a tone of disbelief and as if he had been played. "Eveyard, you already knew who the owner of these two balls of energy was, but you relied on your insanity to make the first move and gain the upper hand?!"
Aoki wasn't the only one who felt the change in the atmosphere. Of course, Wallace also felt it.
Right now, he was in a very awkward situation. Previously, in order to appease Eveyard, he had no choice but to hand Number Four over to him. This had already caused everyone's mood to drop. But now, Eveyard threw out the possibility of Number Six's death. If he couldn't find justice for Number Six, then in everyone's eyes, he really wasn't worth following.
And if he wanted to find justice for Number Six, then he had to 'bring Number Five to justice'. But with Eveyard's personality, he definitely wouldn't allow Wallace to do so. If he insisted on dealing with Number Five, then he would definitely have to fight with Eveyard. There might even be a victor, and it was very likely that he wouldn't be able to deal with Number Five even if he won.
Thus, he was in a very awkward situation. And no matter what, he had to fight with Eveyard. In that case, it seemed that Number Four had died for nothing.
If he knew this would happen, Wallace would have directly fought with Eveyard just now. That way, he could at least protect Number Four, and maybe even reap a wave of people's loyalty.
Eveyard obviously knew how things would develop, so after he returned, he didn't say anything and first crippled Number Four so that he couldn't speak. Then, he took the opportunity to flip out and throw out evidence to force Wallace to hand Number Four over. In a situation where what was done couldn't be undone, no matter how strong Wallace was, he couldn't reverse the situation.
"No wonder you, who was clearly on the verge of madness, can actually reason with me. You tricked me?!" Wallace's voice was somewhat cold.
It was true that Eveyard had a mental problem, but it didn't mean that he didn't have the ability to think. It didn't mean that he only knew how to cause trouble without reason. As an esper, when his mind was clear, he was much smarter than everyone present!
Now, Wallace was the one who was truly uncomfortable. He was truly riding a tiger and couldn't get off.
If he didn't deal with Number Five, then his subordinates definitely wouldn't be as loyal as before. This had nothing to do with benefits or the oppression of power. Even if they were very respectful on the surface, how they did things behind his back would depend on how they thought.
But if he wanted to deal with Number Five, then he would definitely have to fight with Eveyard. Putting aside whether he had the confidence and ability to win against Eveyard, these two choices would be a huge setback for this mission no matter what.
And from the looks of it now, the two sides already felt like they were tit for tat.
"Previously, weren't you also unable to determine whether Number Four was the real culprit based on an energy ball?! Now, just based on this energy ball, how can you determine that Number Five is the culprit? And those pokeballs are all real. Number Four's crime is the real one. The evidence is conclusive. He must die! "Eveyard didn't back down at all. No matter what, Wallace was the one who was unreasonable.
Although Eveyard did use some small tricks to prevent Number Four from even having a chance to defend himself, this was also because Number Four was without a doubt the culprit.
"You!!" Wallace was in an extremely awkward situation. He really regretted it.
It wasn't that he didn't protect Number Four, but that he was greedy for convenience and left everything to Eveyard, allowing him to seize the initiative. Otherwise, if he had seized the opportunity, he might have been able to get rid of Number Five first. At least he wouldn't be in such an awkward situation now.
And at this moment, Aoki was silently watching the development of the situation from the side. Although the development in the middle was a little different from what he had planned, the current outcome was more or less the same as what he had planned. It was even smoother than what he had planned.
But no matter what, Number Four had to die. Whether Number Five died or not, the conflict had already intensified. After today, the pressure from the church on Aoki and the others would be reduced by a lot. If they planned well, the pressure would be reduced by at least half.
This way, Aoki would have more room to maneuver.
The two of them confronted each other. Wallace's and Eveyard's aura soared. At this moment, their subordinates were no longer standing according to their previous numbers. Instead, they stood on both sides, facing each other head-on like their superiors.
The two groups of people had conflicts to begin with. At this moment, the conflict had already become irreconcilable.
He had grasped Wallace's and Eveyard's personalities tightly.
Wallace looked like a burly man on the outside, but in reality, he was a fine man. It was just that he looked fierce on the surface. Otherwise, the church wouldn't have let him be the person in charge of this matter.
Meanwhile, Eveyard's and Wallace's personalities were very different. The most important thing was that Eveyard's mental illness could erupt at any time. He also didn't consider the consequences of his actions, but he was extremely protective of his subordinates.
This kind of personality might be a good thing for his subordinates. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many people willing to follow him instead of Wallace, who looked more normal.
But this kind of personality was like a ticking time bomb to his partners and companions. There was no telling when it would explode.
Aoki had grasped the characteristics of these two people's personalities. In addition, he had fanned the flames, causing the conflict to escalate.
No matter if it was No. 2 or No. 6, the superpowers in both places were arranged by Aoki, Brad, and Catherine. His goal was to mess things up. Although this wasn't enough to convict No. 5, No. 4 would definitely die. As long as No. 4 died, no matter how things developed later, it would reach this point.
The only difference was the degree of escalation of the conflict.
Judging from the current situation, the effect was indeed somewhat better than Aoki had imagined.
Even the spectators, Yishu and Lark, as well as the four survivors who used the Ibu elves, were stunned. They were somewhat confused by the development of the situation.
It was clearly just a simple content report. How did it cause so much trouble?
And now, it seemed that these troubles wouldn't be resolved in a short period of time.
The smell of gunpowder was thick, but neither side made a move. They were waiting for Wallace and Everard to make a choice.
Actually, Wallace didn't want to fight. But now, it seemed that he had no choice. At least on the surface, he had to at least put on an act. But Everard was a person who would either not fight or go crazy if he fought. When the time came, he would erupt with too much combat power and attract unnecessary attention from Dinya and Palucci. It wouldn't be a good thing for completing the mission.
While Wallace's mind was active, he slowly summoned his elves one by one and assumed a fighting stance.
Seeing that the usually calm Wallace had assumed a fighting stance, Everard licked his somewhat dry lips. Battle intent burst forth from his eyes as he also summoned his own elf.
At this moment, No. 5, who was standing behind Everard, saw that his boss was going to stand up for him. He instantly understood that his safety shouldn't be an issue. With some excitement in his eyes, he walked into his own group of people and confronted Aoki and the others.
Although they had fewer people than their opponents, if it was a group battle, they wouldn't be too worried.
Aoki and the others also had one or two elves by their side. They were all ready to attack at any time. They were just waiting for the two bosses to give the order.
At this moment, the few people who originally wanted to watch the show slowly chose to retreat. They didn't want to stop the fight. It would be best if they fought! It would be best if both sides suffered great losses!
"I …" Wallace summoned all of his main elves. But now, one could imagine the bitterness in his heart. He really didn't want to fight. If they fought, this mission would really be over. As the person in charge, he wouldn't be able to explain it.
But just as he opened his mouth, Aoki, who had been focusing on him, didn't give him a chance to speak. He secretly ordered the Geng Gui to immediately throw out the shadow ball that it had been gathering for a while.
Boom!!!
Because Aoki's Geng Gui took the initiative to attack, the group of people who were already nervous didn't back down. They all counterattacked. Just like that, an internal battle began.
"I think it's best for us to sit down and have a good chat …" At this moment, Wallace finally finished his words.
But it was already too late. The battle had already begun, and no one heard what he said clearly.
Looking at his subordinates who were in a mess, Wallace didn't react for a moment. He was a little stunned. It didn't matter who attacked first. What was important was that the battle had already begun.
Although the group of people below wasn't as strong as them, they were still a group of trainers who had the strength of a champion. Not to mention the impact on the surrounding environment, it was definitely not something that an ordinary realm could withstand.
At this moment, the peak of the Space-Time Mountain was filled with broken rocks. A large amount of flying debris almost wreaked havoc on the entire peak.
Eveyard looked at Wallace. He was the only one who heard what Wallace said, but he didn't really want to pay attention to it. Previously, he pretended to be crazy and didn't explode. Now that the people below were fighting so fiercely, he was also a little itchy.
"Hehe, Wallace, you're still strong on the outside but weak on the inside. It looks like we have no choice but to fight now!" Eveyard was eager to give it a try.
"You! Don't you know what it means to come to this step? "Wallace felt very tired.
"After saying so much nonsense, aren't we still going to fight?" Eveyard said with a thick sense of sarcasm.
In fact, Wallace had been suppressing a wave of anger in his heart since the beginning.
Just because he was the only normal person here, he had to be suppressed by this unreasonable lunatic in every aspect?!
Just because he was the person in charge of this mission, he had to consider so many things?!
Damn it!! I'm not a pushover!!
I'll do it!
Seeing the change in Wallace's eyes, Eveyard's expression also became serious. He felt the fighting spirit on Wallace's body and knew that this fellow who considered many things was also forced to put down all his worries.
Eveyard was somewhat excited. Wallace at full strength was an opponent he had always been looking forward to fighting.
Wallace was no longer restrained. They were both members of the church, so why was he forced to be restrained?
He took out a paragon stone and directly threw it onto his Haeruga. Then, he fused his superpower with the Squid King's superpower.
He immediately used his most powerful state. It looked like he was truly prepared for an all-out battle.
Eveyard became more and more excited. Wallace had used his divine power, so he couldn't show any weakness. He had been forcibly suppressing his desire to fight before.
Hu Di didn't show any weakness at all. He used the paragon stone to undergo a super evolution.
Although the paragon stones of the church were much weaker than normal super evolution, different quality paragon stones had different effects. At the very least, the paragon stones that Wallace and Eveyard, who were at the very top of the church, could use were definitely of the highest quality.
Therefore, to their elves, the increase was quite considerable.
Therefore, not only Eveyard's Hu Di, but even Wallace's Haeruga had successfully broken through the second checkpoint of the champion level. Even in the elven world, such strength was at the very top. It could be imagined how much fighting power they could erupt with in a short period of time.
If the two of them really went all out, changing the landscape of an area was no problem for them at all.
The church's plan was actually quite good. Since those who had broken through the second checkpoint of the champion level were not allowed to enter the Space-Time Continent, then these two people with absolute strength could erupt with such fighting power in a short period of time as long as they were superimposed with the enhancement of the paragon stone.
Aoki and the others immediately separated after Wallace and Eveyard started fighting. They didn't even dare to linger at the top of the Space-Time Mountain. With the help of their elves, they flew to the side and watched the battle between Wallace and Eveyard.
In fact, in terms of pure strength, Eveyard had a slight advantage, but this advantage wasn't very big. On the other hand, Wallace had the advantage of his elves' attributes. Although elves with superpowers could use the Eye of Miracles, they were still somewhat restricted.
Therefore, Wallace really started fighting with a dark face. After a period of time, Eveyard slowly fell into a disadvantage.
But Eveyard was really a weirdo. Not only did Wallace's strength not give him any pressure, he became more and more excited. Moreover, the elves he used were all extremely offensive elves. They almost didn't pay much attention to defense. He deserved the name of a lunatic.
Aoki and the others watched the battle without blinking. Who won and who lost might not be the most important thing. The most important thing was to fight for their dignity and not weaken their momentum at this critical moment.
However, just as Aoki and the others were still watching the battle attentively, something strange happened again.
Everyone present was a superpower user and had broken through the barrier of the Space-Time Continent to enter this area. They more or less had their own sensitivity to space.
Just now, everyone sensed an extremely large amount of space energy like a meteorite that fiercely hit the spatial membrane of the Space-Time Continent.
There was no earth-shattering explosion, nor was there any abnormality. This extremely powerful space energy was like a fish entering water. It was so natural and casual, as if this was the ecological environment it liked and was most used to.
The faces hidden under the superpower membrane suddenly changed color. Even Wallace and Eveyard, who didn't hide their appearances, had a sudden change in expression.
A name appeared in everyone's mind at the same time.
Palugia!
The God of Space, Palugia!
"Roar —" A loud dragon's roar spread throughout the entire Space-Time Continent.
Hearing this dragon's roar, a large number of wild elves on the Space-Time Continent rushed back to their respective caves as fast as they could. They hid in the deepest parts of the continent, trembling and not daring to make a sound. Some of the weaker elves who were closer to the dragon's roar directly rolled their eyes and fainted.
The entire Space-Time Continent suddenly fell into a very quiet atmosphere. At this time, Wallace and Eveyard's foreheads were sweating. This was because Palugia had arrived at the top of the Space-Time Mountain in less than a second after entering the Space-Time Continent. Any distance seemed to be meaningless to him.
Palugia and Dinya, the two legendary Gods of Space and Time, were famous for their strong territorial awareness. This Space-Time Continent was the common property of the two elves, and they had spent a lot of effort to create it.
Even if the two elves didn't get along, that was between them. When an external force interfered with them, they would definitely unite against the external force.
Just like how the church and the Alliance had tacitly agreed not to let anyone with the strength of the champion level enter the second checkpoint, because they knew that this would definitely attract the attention of the two mythical beasts. When that time came, it wouldn't be so easy to deal with.
The destructive power and strength of these two elves wasn't something that one or two trainers could deal with.
Palugia's body was light purple, and he had the characteristics of a Theropod. He had purple-black stripes on his body, and the inside of his arms were grey.
There were disc-shaped objects with purple stripes on his shoulders, and there was a pearl embedded in each of them. They were surrounded by grey rings.
His arms had elongated structures similar to metal gloves, and there was a purple band on each of his wrists.
Palugia's neck was very long, and there was a pointed crown on his head that connected to his wings. There were two ivory horns beside his mouth, and his tail was thick and strong.
Palugia's two red eyes were emotionless as he looked at Wallace's Super Haeruga and Eveyard's Super Hudi.
Although the strength of these two elves didn't pose much of a threat to him, it didn't mean that there was no threat at all.
If there was a threat, it meant that he had to eliminate it. He couldn't allow anything or any living thing that could threaten him to appear in his territory.
Super Haeruga and Super Hudi felt as if they were being stared at by a terrifying prehistoric beast. In front of him, they were as weak as little chicks. The two of them weren't even on the same level.
Aoki and the rest of the church were hiding in the distance, quietly watching this scene. They didn't dare to make any noise, for fear of attracting Palugia's attention.
But from Aoki's shadow, where no one was paying attention, a white-haired elf slowly emerged. His two blue eyes stared at the majestic Palugia.
It was Dakraii, who had been hiding in Aoki's shadow all this time. His appearance wouldn't attract anyone's attention, but elves …
Palugia, who had been staring at Super Hudi and Super Haeruga, suddenly felt his heartbeat quicken. His beastly instincts made his hair stand on end.
He immediately turned to look in Aoki's direction. Just now, he had sensed an aura that was even more threatening than the aura of Super Hu Di and Super Haerujia. But when he turned to look, he didn't see anything.
Dakraii quickly returned to the shadows and shrunk himself into the deepest part of the shadow. He had the dream demon use her ghostly energy to conceal himself.
Palugia's eyes flashed with doubt. He knew that he wasn't imagining things, but he couldn't find the source of the danger!
