Chapter 999 Showdown
"Aren't we trying to stop the abyss from erupting now?" Douglas was not surprised at all by Gorsa's question.
He shook the beaker in his hand, and the liquid in the beaker turned red in an instant, and then quickly turned back to transparent.
Golsa walked over, took the beaker from Douglas's right hand, and shook it gently. The liquid in the beaker also turned red in an instant, and then quickly returned to a transparent color.
"Are you helping to weaken the Queen's consciousness? Are you also giving it a false impression?"
"Yes. For a pure consciousness, this is the simplest and most effective method."
"It's a pity that no matter how powerful the Queen of Insects is, she can't directly destroy the Abyss."
Douglas suddenly put down the beaker in his hand, straightened his wizard robe, leaned on the laboratory table, and looked at Gorza leisurely, "Do you know who I am? How did you find out?"
Golsa was startled. He didn't expect the other party to be so direct. "I thought you would continue to pretend until you give the answer."
Douglas was not at all flustered by his disguise. "I disguised myself because I don't want you to be completely dependent on me and stop thinking for yourself and looking to me for answers. I am just a fifth-level wizard with no chance of promotion. How can I be 100% sure that I can deal with a sixth-level wizard?"
This sounded like a mockery of Golsa for asking him for an answer directly. But Golsa showed no shame.
"You want to guide us to follow your ideas step by step, and now you say you don't want us to rely on you completely. Only Char would believe such a lame lie." Gorza thought to himself, the bandage on his face covering all his expressions.
"Oh, I see," Douglas remembered something, "You know Floco, right?"
"I have seen it once."
As long as it doesn't involve Thor, just sell Floco.
Douglas shook his head helplessly. "When I first showed up, I wanted to kill him, but something went wrong and I didn't have the chance to do it. At that time, I thought you might discover my identity. I just didn't expect it to be so soon."
When Douglas said he wanted to kill Floco, his tone was also understated, as if he was not talking about killing a fifth-level person, but eating an apple.
Gorza pressed on, "If you really want to solve the Eye of the Abyss, why would you want to kill Floco? He is a fifth-level being after all. Isn't it better for him to stay and help you?"
Douglas chuckled. "Because I don't have to solve the Eye of the Abyss. If the benefits of killing Floco are greater than the Eye of the Abyss, I can naturally kill him. The reason why I spared his life in the end was precisely to solve the problem of the Abyss."
"So what exactly do you want to do? You're not going to be so kind as to suddenly want to save your hometown, are you?"
"Of course not." Douglas admitted readily, "I just want to observe the death of a sixth-level. Since you have met Flock, you should know that I have been stuck at the peak of the fifth level for a long, long time. If I can observe the annihilation and fall of a sixth-level up close, the knowledge I gain in the process may help me advance. Being stuck at the door of the sixth level, I realized that power and the like are nothingness, and only knowledge is eternal."
“Knowledge is power.”
"Unfortunately, it took me a long time and many failed experiments to realize this."
Douglas looked at Gorza and saw that the smile on his face had disappeared.
"Now you should understand why I should stay and help you, right?"
"My understanding is that you want us to confront the Abyss directly and prevent it from reviving, while you carefully observe the annihilation of the Sixth Order from a third person's perspective and gain knowledge from it. If you want to find out the secrets about the essence of the Sixth Order through observation, you naturally cannot be distracted, so you can't take action and can only guide us." Gorza said lazily, "But I still hope that you can guide us more clearly, after all, we don't have much time left. Although this is a matter of life and death for us, for you to observe the death of a Sixth Order up close is also a rare opportunity."
Since there is a demand, we can talk about cooperation.
Gorza was not afraid at all when facing a senior fifth-level warrior.
"You're right, but haven't we been working together?" Douglas walked to Gorza's side, raised his hand and gently patted his shoulder. "As for the progress of the guidance, you don't have to worry about it. Just be my guinea pig. I will try my best to keep you alive."
After saying that, Douglas walked out of the laboratory, but Gorza stood there without moving.
Until a second-level wizard saw Gorza standing alone in the laboratory, and walked forward to ask for instructions in confusion.
"Mr. Speaker, do you have any instructions?"
However, the next second, Gorza suddenly disappeared, ignoring the second-level wizard.
The second-level wizard touched his nose in embarrassment, but he didn't take Gorza's sudden disappearance to heart.
The new speaker can teleport and has a notoriously weird temper. So just ignore him.
But what this second-level wizard didn't know was that Gorza had just teleported back to the Stargate Chancellor's exclusive spherical room when he suddenly spat out a mouthful of black blood.
The black blood was still swirling and boiling when it fell to the ground, as if something was fighting inside.
Gersa fell to the ground and slowly closed his eyes.
As soon as Glass slapped him twice, the cells in his body began to launch suicidal attacks on each other.
It was not until he used the resurrection technique to quickly reconstruct the flesh and blood within the bandage that he was able to isolate the cells that were still killing each other and spray them out of the body.
The black blood that fell on the ground was still fighting, you bite me, I devour you. The blood became less and less, and finally only a pool of dry black powder remained.
"Extremely powerful power of death." Only then did Gorza slowly open his eyes. "No wonder he is so interested in the death of a sixth-level person."
A few days later, Golsa talked about this matter alone with Saul on the Symphony Channel.
Through the Symphony of Fate, Thor discovered that Gorza had survived a life-and-death crisis, which gave him a huge amount of power of destiny.
However, he was worried that it would affect Gorsa's recuperation, so he contacted him only after a few days.
Saul was also surprised to learn that Glass actually confronted Gorza directly.
After a moment's silence, Thor asked, "Teacher, do you think what Douglas said is true?"
Gorza: [Oh, I think only 90% of it is credible, but the 10% he concealed is the most important to us.]
What could a fifth-level wizard who had been away from the wizarding world for a long time and had no need to wade into this muddy water have to hide? Unless the content of the concealment would seriously damage the interests of Thor and others... or their lives.
"Could Douglas mistake us for another kind of red worm and drag us over to die?" Thor guessed.
Golsa: [If that's the case, then it's not impossible.]
Huh? Is Mr. Golsa so selfless?
After thinking about it, Thor shook his head again.
No! It should be that Teacher Gorza simply believed that he would not die.
He is a tough guy who went into the abyss himself and believed that he could come back! (End of this chapter)
