Chapter 571: Chapter 571: I look forward to the moment He makes me lose
Perfect Life looked at "Sin" before him, clearly sensing something was off about the other's emotions.
But after all, he was also from the Saint faction, and his goal was to defeat the Divine Messenger. No matter what, he shouldn't feel fear.
If he showed cowardice before claiming first place, he would truly become second place.
Ignoring the New Saints gradually surrounding them, Perfect Life firmly nodded and replied:
"Correct!"
There were no other possibilities - either there was a direct relationship or at least an indirect causal connection.
He had previously wondered if too many deaths had given Death Messenger power, but just now, the moment the sixth city was sealed, "Sin's" chances of winning had drastically decreased.
The death toll... could it have increased dramatically in that single moment?
"Not only will you face eternal damnation."
"We're not in a hurry anyway. We should consider strategies first. That Blank from before might have known something from the very beginning."
He was the one who knew best that "Sin's" Saint Lord identity was pure nonsense, yet at this moment, he actually proactively acknowledged the other as Saint Lord, essentially holding his nose and accepting it.
There was no choice - saying it so many times had made it reality, and he could only follow along for now.
Moreover, saying such things was itself to observe these fanatics around him, to see if he could persuade them as well.
But hearing his words, Jiang Yuan lifted his head and firmly shook it.
"No matter what kind of schemes, tricks, or traps, the Saint Lord cannot possibly fail."
Perfect Life: ......
Beside them, another New Saint also frowned and spoke:
"What nonsense are you spouting?"
"We're clearly about to win. Under the Saint Lord's majestic pressure, the opponent doesn't even dare show themselves."
Perfect Life thought to himself, have you gathered nothing but sycophants around you?
With this relentless flattery, even if you truly became a god in this world, you'd probably be a tyrant.
The citizens below didn't know what was happening, only knowing that the Saint Lord above still hadn't left his position.
Thus, they continued shouting incessantly.
"Long live the Saint Lord!"
These voices now sounded quite grating to Perfect Life's ears, making him feel extremely irritable for a moment.
Looking at these New Saints, he suddenly sneered coldly and said:
"A bunch of fools. Are you truly loyal to the Saint Lord?"
"You've merely grabbed onto the last lifeline, projecting all your hopes onto him."
"Expecting your Saint Lord to be omnipotent, capable of achieving what seems utterly hopeless to you."
"But I'll say it again - you're accelerating his failure, and you'll die too! Just cutting off your own hopes with your own hands."
Although Perfect Life held respect and pity for this world's last few protectors, at this point, he showed no mercy in his words.
This statement basically amounted to pointing fingers and cursing at them.
Hearing his words, Jiang Yuan's eyes flickered slightly, but he only said calmly:
"The Saint Lord is naturally omnipotent."
The other New Saints around them were already preparing to take action, their auras rising, murderous intent flashing in their eyes.
Pouring cold water before battle - this guy who showed no respect for the Saint Lord from the start must be a spy!
However, at that moment, Pride suddenly waved his hand, and instantly all the Saints around fell silent!
"All of this is His deliberate doing."
"He still has backup plans sufficient to destroy me."
"I'm far from victory now - in fact, the probability of losing is greater, correct?"
Standing on the enormous corpse within the skyscraper, Pride's emotionless voice rang out, betraying neither joy nor anger.
Raising his hand, those slender fingers pinched the edge of his golden mask as if adjusting glasses, making slight adjustments.
Such a hand appearing on "Sin's" body seemed quite discordant - he looked like he should be playing piano rather than wielding an axe for slaughter.
"Hmm, there's something wrong here, but as long as..."
Perfect Life, seeing that the "Sin" before him didn't seem intoxicated by victory and appeared somewhat rational, immediately spoke.
However, the next instant, the guy before him instantly revealed his insane nature.
"Heh... HAHAHAHA!"
It started as suppressed laughter, but soon escalated into violent guffaws, the rampant laughter so intense it seemed to silence the entire city.
The kneeling citizens looked up in confusion and alarm, gazing at the sky above, unaware of what was happening.
The knuckles of his right hand protruded as he gripped the golden mask tightly, concealing his manic smile, with a frenzied gaze peering through the gaps between his fingers.
"That's truly... wonderful!"
"I'm looking forward to it! It's good that He's not trash."
"I really want to see how I lose!"
After speaking, he suddenly looked up toward the distant sky, then turned to Jiang Yuan beside him.
"What are the remaining two cities called?"
Jiang Yuan, looking at the suddenly different Saint Lord, said dazedly:
"Ah... according to previous information, one should be Kun and the other Li, Saint Lord."
"Oh, I don't care what they're called." Lu Ce seemed to suddenly realize his mistake and shook his head.
Gazing at the blood-red sunset, he said to the Saints:
"Before nightfall, I want these two cities dealt with!"
"I want to see how I lose!"
"Yes!"
The crowd, previously angered by Perfect Life's words, was instantly infected by Pride's imposing manner, their eyes blazing with fire as they marched toward the next city.
Perfect Life's eyelids twitched, thinking to himself, this isn't emotional stability - this is clearly another episode!
I actually wanted this guy to be rational just now... seems I was the irrational one.
"Have you thought this through?"
Looking at "Sin," Perfect Life spoke, putting away the Eight Trigrams in his hand.
"My Eight Trigrams calculations never make mistakes."
"Hmm, that's good." Pride nodded without looking back. "Then I look forward to you being correct this time too!"
With that, amid the city's faithful cheers, he charged toward the next Teleportation Point.
......
In the dark void, a beautiful face showed slight movement in the brows and eyes.
The next moment, Death Messenger's lips curved upward, and her eyes suddenly snapped open.
Sensing her current power, she nodded with slight satisfaction.
Feeling the situation outside, she murmured to herself with some surprise:
"Sealed quite quickly..."
"Thinking about how you believe you're about to win right now is quite amusing, hehe."
