Chapter 563: Volunteered to Die
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The Ultimate Evil Lord’s body slowly dissipated and the sky in the capital of Ultimate Evil gradually darkened. The buildings in the city seemed to have aged tens of millions of years in an instant, becoming dilapidated and desolate. The sky that was originally filled with purple light no longer existed.
This world that had once been one with the Ultimate Evil Lord gradually returned to its original state.
The Ultimate Evil Lord was dead.
Although Gajero had emerged victorious, he did not feel the slightest bit of joy at that moment. Instead, he looked around with a grave expression as if he was looking for something very urgently.
Suddenly, Gajero showed a shocked expression. He quickly raised his hand to cover his mouth. Although he was trying his best to cover it, pitch-black blood was still seeping out from the gaps between his fingers.
Gajero then began to cough violently, and he crouched down. He was like an old man in his twilight years, ready to die from illness at any time.
Although Gajero’s body was in extreme pain and was so serious that he could not manage his physiological reaction, his eyes were still filled with intense vigilance, constantly observing his surroundings.
That was because he knew that Vincent must still be nearby. Gajero did not want Vincent to see his pathetic appearance, and even more so, he did not want Vincent to see the flaws in his divine personality.
Ever since he fused with his imperfect divine personality, Gajero himself had suffered a strong backlash, and in order to hide this secret, he had pretended to be calm to kill the Ultimate Evil Lord. He thought that he would be able to hold on until he left the capital of Ultimate Evil, but he did not expect the injuries in his body to erupt in such a short period of time. He did not have time to react at all. He showed his weakest and most helpless state.
At that moment, Gajero could only hope and persuade himself that Vincent was not around or that he had long fled from the capital of Ultimate Evil so he could not see his current appearance.
At the same time, Gajero also believed that even if Vincent was watching him, he would not know what had happened to him!
“No matter what, with the knowledge of a mere low-level creature, it is impossible for him to come into contact with the secrets of a divine spark!”
Gajero then vomited into his palm and used the back of his hand to wipe away the last trace of blood at the corner of his mouth. He stood up with a face full of confidence, trying to convince himself with his self-deceiving thought.
In the space tunnel, Vincent was staring at Gajero through the space barrier. He looked at him with a solemn expression and said, “It turns out that the flaw in his divine spark is even more serious than I had imagined. For him to become like that, it seems that we still have a great chance in the future! Gajero currently possesses four god-level abilities, and at the same time, he also possesses the divine spark of destruction. As long as he wanted to, he could be promoted to a Protoss at any time.”
Vincent continued, “However, with his current condition, he is simply unable to bear the burden of the divinization ritual. Thus, he has to first recover from his injuries. If he was still fixated on improving his body, he will need to think of a way to rescue Alexia from my hands before he can carry out the divinization ritual. As long as we continue playing hide-and-seek with Gajero, the demons will not make any big moves for a while!”
Justin, who was waiting by the side, could not help but nod and say, “That’s true, but if you want to end Gajero with your own hands, you have to find out the equipment that has been guarding his demon core. If the equipment is truly impeccable, then even if he fights against the Protoss, the outcome will be exactly the same as the Ultimate Evil Lord!”
Vincent frowned and said in a deep voice, “Right now, we’d better think of a way to give him a little hope. We will need to make him think that he has a chance to get back that perfect body. That way, even if he recovers from his injuries, he won’t be able to easily become a god in the future! We’ll have enough time to find a way to crack that magical equipment on his body!”
At that moment, Alexia, who had been curled up in the corner, suddenly stood up and walked behind Vincent. She said firmly, “I can help you finish it!”
Vincent and Justin turned to look at Alexia at the same time. Their eyes were full of vigilance.
After all the betrayals that had happened before, Vincent and Justin no longer trusted this woman!
However, Alexia did not care about Vincent and Justin’s gazes at all. She said firmly, “As you said, the way to temporarily stabilize father is to let me return to his side. It depends on whether you dare to take a gamble with me!”
Vincent smiled slightly and he asked with great interest, “How do you want to gamble?”
Alexia said without any expression, “Between you and me, no matter how far apart we are, there are Cosmic Threads attached to me. You can monitor my every move at any time and let me return to my father’s side. If he does not covet the Immortal bloodline in my body, you can kill me at any time to prevent future trouble! But if my father really wants to use me, then you can erase my will at any time and make me your puppet!”
Vincent and Justin could not help but look at each other silently after hearing this. They could hear the lifeless tone in Alexia’s voice. They also understood that Alexia currently did not care about life and death. She only wanted to prove her status in Gajero’s heart at all costs.
If it could be proven that Gajero really treated her as a daughter, then Alexia would be willing to die. However, if what Gaia said was the truth, then Alexia would be willing to become Vincent’s chess piece and be used as a tool against Gajero.
Vincent took a deep breath and said slowly, “I am moved by your proposal, but doing so is too risky. After all, Gajero also has methods against the Cosmic Threads. I cannot give you the chance to regain your freedom! But I can think of a way to let the two of you meet!”
Tears rolled down Alexia’s face and she asked with some excitement, “Okay, what price do you want me to pay?”
Vincent smiled slightly and opened a space door a hundred meters away from Gajero. He then said, “No price! You just need to let him see you!”
Alexia did not hesitate at all. She turned around and walked toward the space door.
Justin, who had witnessed all of this, asked with a puzzled face, “What exactly do you want to do?”
Vincent moved his hands and fingers as he said with anticipation, “Of course, it’s to retrieve an extremely important treasure! If we can subdue the Ultimate Evil Lord’s soul, how much do you think our chances of winning in the future will increase?”
