Chapter 110: The Little Corgi is Being Tricked Again (Two in One)

The smoke and dust had not yet completely dissipated. The two parties were standing far apart on either side. In the middle, Li Li, with a smile on her face, took a step forward slowly.

The boots tapped the ground, but at this moment the air was extremely quiet.

It seemed as if everyone was looking at the black-haired young man who had solved the crisis smoothly from the moment he appeared.

"Are you the illusionist?" After being stunned for a moment, Qu Ting's cheerful smile slowed down a little.

"Hmm." Li Li tilted her head. "What do you want to talk to me about?"

The blood line behind the SS-class mutant was like an open bone fan, or like a peacock's tail behind the purple-haired young man. The dark red color wanted to spread around, but Qu Ting did not take action immediately.

He looked past the smiling Li Li and at Dan who had recovered intact behind her.

The white-haired boy looked like grabbing the corner of Li Li's clothes, but he held back. He touched the brand new strawberry hairpin, and although his mouth didn't curl up, his eyebrows were very happy.

But in Qu Ting's eyes, the strawberry hairpin on her white bob was full of irony.

The countdown ended and Dan was indeed unharmed.

It's really a flashback, not an illusion.

"I was still thinking about how to ask the princess to come find you." Qu Yan lost his composure for a moment, then said kindly, "You actually showed up by yourself. It seems that my trip was not in vain."

"You are a SS-level psychic but you obey the orders of people without psychics. Are you proud of that?" Li Li said lightly.

Princess Wuyu's face showed no expression, but Qu Ting's fake smile froze for a moment.

It seems that he is indeed not very convinced by the royal family.

"Quite eloquent." Qu Ting said.

Obviously, he was irritated. The SS-ranked supernatural being's original arrogant attitude had become a little forced after a car accident. Qu Ting was also very proud and liked to pretend to be high-handed and generous. At this time, he was stuck in a dilemma.

Having lived in the floating city for many years, he had not encountered such an unpleasant thing for a long, long time.

But Qu Ting did not take the initiative to attack, he thought it was extremely disgraceful, for a SS-rank noble clan leader to treat a group of young people like this, especially in front of the princess, was really lowering his status.

So he stepped forward and said in a serious tone: "Young man, don't think too highly of yourself."

He would rather just downplay it and let these people be killed by counterattack without even taking any action.

"I know you have many superpowers, but you want to rely on them to defeat me. That's wishful thinking." Qu Ting pointed at the blood line behind him and said cheerfully, "No matter how many superpowers you use, they will all come back to haunt you in the end."

"Don't think you can get away with it just because you have many superpowers. Face the reality, young man. It's not too late to surrender now," said Qu Ting.

The blood line swayed as he spoke, and the scene just now proved that what he said was true.

Sang Feiling, who had rushed over, used his special powers to float in the air, walked forward and shook his head at Yiming.

It is true that because of the life-and-death struggle, the strength of everyone in Tide has increased during this period, but she does not think that they can defeat Qu Ting.

SS-level counterattack, any attack method is ineffective against Qu Ting, but in addition to counterattack, Qu Ting can also use his blood line freely. This is a one-sided and terrible situation.

Unless there is someone of a higher level than him, but how could a legendary level like SSS appear here?

"This is why the princess allowed me to come. No matter how powerful your combined forces are, in front of me, it will only be like a leaf blown away by the wind, overturning all your strength." Qu Ting opened his arms, as if he was talking to everyone in the tide, but he was only looking at Li Li alone.

He looked at Li Li's red, teasing eyes and said in his elder's tone: "If you are willing to become a subordinate of the Qu family after surrendering, I can forget about you killing Xiao Yan."

This is a form of solicitation and also a disguised form of degradation.

"We all speak based on strength, don't we? You deserve the olive branch from the noble Qu family." He smiled kindly, and everyone knew what he was thinking.

Qu Ting will not let go of anyone who makes him unhappy, even though he still looks cheerful like a kind-hearted elder.

And as he looked, the black-haired young man in front of him raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Oh?" The pair of red eyes narrowed slightly, and Li Li also wanted to laugh.

Chao Xi wants her to be the leader, Lin Ran wants her to be the city lord, and Ranmu City is just waiting for her approval to hold the city lord succession ceremony at any time.

Don't you check her market conditions before making a joke?

Although she wouldn't agree to any of them.

The battlefield seemed to shrink, the voices of others faded into the distance, and the only thing left on the land was the confrontation between these two people.

And everyone is waiting for the outcome of this confrontation.

Princess Wu Yu looked at the two people in front of her silently. Sang Feiyuan came to her side, ready to protect the princess at any time.

Sang Feiling looked up at the back of the black-haired young man who was confronting the SS-class mutant, her face was very solemn. She knew Qu Ting's power, so among all the people, she was the first to think about how to evacuate everyone.

In a normal battle between psychics, level is the most important thing, because many abilities will simply not be effective against high-level ones.

The second most important thing is the power itself. A tricky power can sometimes cause damage across levels.

They have now lost in terms of level, and secondly, no one can restrain Qu Ting in terms of supernatural powers.

Any means of attack will hurt themselves, but how can they defeat Qu Ting without attacking them?

They can't win.

Tang was distracted, not knowing what he was thinking. Yu Xiao came up from behind and stopped beside Yiming. He then turned around and looked at Yiming, who lowered his head. He said softly, "He won't agree."

Under Yu Xiao's inquiring gaze, Yiming said again: "I don't think he will agree."

"Are you familiar with him?" Yu Xiao asked.

Yiming shook his head, lowered his eyes slightly, and said, "I feel that he is a very stubborn person."

"Stubborn?" Yu Xiao's round red eyes reflected a look of anger.

In his eyes, Yiming said: "He will not change his decision because of others, no matter who it is."

And at this moment, in the center of everyone's attention, Li Li spoke.

"What makes you think I would use other powers on you?" She smiled innocently, "Only you? Are you worthy?"

The heavy air was instantly torn apart. Qu Ting finally gave up his elder demeanor and laughed loudly: "Hahahaha good! Very good!"

"You mean you can defeat me with just one superpower? Turn the situation around?" Qu Ting laughed angrily, "I thought you were a promising talent because you had an advantage in the variety of superpowers. Unfortunately, I was wrong!"

"You only used one ability?" Qu Ting felt that he was being looked down upon and mocked. "What did you use? The backtracking you just used? What else can you do besides saving people?"

In front of him, Li Li still looked calm and composed.

The red lines were swinging wildly around her, like spikes about to fall from her head. The gap between S-rank and SS-rank was huge, and all of Li Li's attack methods were banned, whether physical or magical, and none of them had any effect.

But she never relied on these.

Facing Qu Ting's stern face, she took a step forward and said slowly, "You seem to have forgotten one thing. This is not your body."

She raised her eyes, her red pupils smiling.

"...So that's how it is." Qu Ting understood the meaning of this sentence, but he still didn't think it could defeat him. "You want to revert my state to the time before I possessed Xiao Tao? Wild imagination!"

But apart from him, Sang Feiling and Yu Xiao showed expressions of enlightenment. Princess Wu Yu took a step back and gave the order to retreat in the puzzled look of Sang Feiyuan.

Qu Ting said firmly: "I have seen the conditions for activating your superpower. You will use your superpower after you say it. As long as I don't listen to what you say..."

Some abilities can be activated on higher and equal levels, but they usually have a condition for activation. Just like Lin Ruye needs his uncle to stab Dan and send the insect into the wound of Dan in order to control Dan. It is also like Dan's error correction requires the target to feel remorse before it can be activated, and even more like Li Li needs the other party to believe in it before it can succeed.

Qu Ting thought that he had deduced the conditions for using Li Li's "Backtracking" from her actions just now.

But as he looked at Li Li's unchanging, seemingly sarcastic smile, he began to hesitate.

He read a denial of his conjecture in this smile.

Qu Ting realized it

He was misled!

"Wait! Are you telling us that the activation condition of supernatural powers is not sound!" He recalled what Li Li did after she appeared, spoke, and then looked at Dan...

"Qu Tao, trace back your status until ten minutes ago." Li Li said slowly.

Once the words are spoken, the lie is woven.

She didn't need to look back, everyone's trust in her increased as she looked at them.

Li Li didn't just say this to Qu Ting, but to everyone present.

Everyone was in on her lies.

Dan, An Heyu, Sang Feiling, Sang Feiyuan...

Each advancement bar provided by a high-level psychic is higher than the sum of all mid-level psychics.

And after this

Yu Xiao.

SS tiers give a progress bar that far exceeds theirs.

The smile on Li Li's face became more genuine.

From beginning to end she only wanted him to believe her.

Qu Ting: "You looked into that kid's eyes"

The red pupils in his eyes suddenly dilated.

The silver half of the mask reflected his somewhat panicked face.

"You're looking me in the eyes." She smiled.

Qu Ting looked at those red eyes that seemed to dot the abyss, and his trust in her suddenly exploded.

"How is this possible!" He couldn't accept that he was really

Facts that can be sent away!

進度條被補齊，在曲汀抗拒且氣急敗壞的目光中，黎梨擡起手，打了個響指。

“滾回你的浮空城。”她禮貌的微笑道。

聲音響起的瞬間，虛幻成真！

烈風驟起，紫發青年面容上驚惶的神情瞬間凝固，變成了略有些茫然的神色。

曲汀離開軀體，曲淘一時間不知道發生了什麽。他沒有看到公主，只看到前方慢條斯理整理手套，視他于無物，悠然轉過身的黑發青年。

以及青年好似随口說出的名字：“丹。”

烏鴉的黑色羽翼遮蓋視線，黑發青年的身影在黑色的烏鴉群中消失。

眼前潮汐衆人也是怔然的神色，但是曲淘看到了與衆不同的一個人，一個惡狠狠看着他的白發少年。

白發少年動了動嘴唇，下一瞬間窒息感籠罩了他。

直到死亡，他也沒弄清楚為什麽家主沒有出現，為什麽公主不在身邊。

...

“贏了...？”桑飛羚有些飄忽的說道。

除了丹和安鶴予，其他人也有些迷迷瞪瞪。

他們看着曲淘的屍體，和對面空曠的廢墟。

“他就說了幾句話？然後就結束了？”安鹄羽不敢置信道。

他頭一次這麽直觀的認識到‘黑格’的強大，他不禁回憶起自己不懂事時期天天吵着要抓黑格，想着想着抖了抖，慶幸自己沒真撞上本人。

一鳴則沒那麽震驚：“黑格...他很強。”

雖然他們觀念不同，但是一鳴承認自己不如對方。

“他是同伴真的太好了，如果是敵人...”

那也太可怕了。

桑飛羚沒有想到峰回路轉，他們不但從曲汀手下活了下來，還擊潰了公主最後的殺手锏。

“對了，霧雨公主！”桑飛羚猛然反應過來，“去追！”

“俘虜公主，我們就有了和浮空城談判的資本！”

...

桑非遠一人寡不敵衆，在曲淘死亡後半日不到，潮汐俘虜了公主，宣告這場戰鬥大獲全勝。

潮汐打贏了第一場勝仗，也是一次絕佳的翻身仗。一時間潮汐的名聲大噪，多年前前異能公會的事情也被挖了出來，各個英勇先驅的故事廣為流傳。

他們雖敗猶榮，他們的火種依舊在燃燒。

而預言師的那則預言，也被潮汐的人重新翻了出來。

嬈月找過來的時候黎梨依舊在那個小陽臺，那個躺椅上躺着。

她在等一個時機，然後完成那件她籌備已久的事情。

“我們十分希望您能成為我們的領頭人。”嬈月半跪着，話語十分真摯，她真心服黎梨，“既然我們目的相同，為什麽不能一起行動？”

黎梨揉了揉自己的太陽穴：“我拒絕。”

說再多次她都不會幹，她真的覺得自己會把這群人帶溝裏去。

她喜歡單幹，雖然帶一幫子人去踢館、去做客确實很有氣勢，但是她大部分時候都兼顧不了其他人。

之前對付SS階能取得階段性勝利主要還是因為曲汀和俞曉信了她的鬼話，但是S階和SS階差距巨大，就算是現在已經是S階的她也不覺得能打得過SS階且被臨如晔牽制了的臨染。

黎梨覺得自己還是很有規劃的，能做的不能做的她心裏都有一杆秤。

說完，她側過臉：“還有事嗎？”

“霧雨公主想見您。”嬈月說道。

她大概是覺得這個要求有些不可理喻，緊接着又說：“她用她所知道的貴族異能作為交換條件，但是如果您不想去我們會回絕”

“帶路。”

黎梨也想知道霧雨公主到底有什麽要和她說的。

潮汐把公主關押在桑飛羚的卧房旁邊，公主是非異能者，他們不擔心公主逃跑。他們要防的是有人來救公主，或者看守被公主說動。桑飛羚就是最佳的看守人選。

“又拒絕了？”門被推開，桑飛羚在門外詢問嬈月，而黎梨自己進了這間卧室。

“是的。”嬈月的聲音被關在門外，黎梨看了看這裏的布局。

很普通的卧室，霧雨公主坐在床沿，正看着她。潮汐的人沒有虐待公主，只是給公主的雙手捆上了鎖鏈。但是就算只是這樣，也讓霧雨公主的手腕紅了一圈。

“說吧，你有什麽事。”黎梨随意找了個板凳坐下，稍有興致的看着霧雨公主。

已經淪為俘虜的霧雨公主依舊是那副平靜的神色，她開口：“我們不應該是敵人。”

粉發少女說出口的話，卻和幾日前的大相徑庭。

幾日前，她将黎梨視作敵人。而現在，她卻說她們不是敵人。

黎梨确實愣了愣。

在寂靜之後，她說道：“理由？”

她意識到了，霧雨公主想策反她。

也确實，如果說現在有人能從潮汐救出霧雨公主的，只有黎梨。

除非皇室讓另外一個SS階離開浮空城，但是和皇室斷開聯系的霧雨公主選擇自救是一件很正常很合理的事情。

只是黎梨确實願意聽聽霧雨公主有什麽能打動她的條件。

而公主直視她的雙眼，說道：“我知道我代表帝國皇室，我的地位影響我的觀念，聽起來不那麽真誠。”緊接着，她話音一轉，“但是我所做的一切都是為了這個帝國。”

黎梨微笑的看着她，沒有出聲，但是看上去是不信的。

公主像是預料到了黎梨的反應，她繼續說道：“身為高階異能者，你應該知道他們的力量有多麽強大。S階異能者之間的戰鬥能毀滅一個城市，而更高的SS階，甚至能直接毀滅帝國。”

“他們甚至不用多做些什麽，只要輕飄飄的與同等級出個手，就足夠引起毀滅帝國的動亂。而帝國毀滅了，帝國中的民衆也難逃死亡。”

這是漫畫一開始就給出的消息，黎梨當然知道。

但是此時霧雨公主提出來，又好像帶了別樣的意味。

黎梨抱臂，嘴角的笑容淡了些，她的食指下意識的在手臂上敲了敲。

她在思考。

“你是想說，帝國将SS階集合在浮空城是為了保護帝國？”黎梨說道。

“是的。”霧雨公主平淡的放出了一個重磅消息，“是為了限制他們的自由。”

目前九位SS階，六位在浮空城無法離開，一位蛟荒城主身受重傷，一位俞曉以及最後一位不知生死。

就算臨染還活着，她也明顯和帝國皇室一個想法。

她自覺的把自己的活動範圍框定在染目城，就算她的能力遠超染目城的占地限制。

“覆巢之下無完卵，貴族殺死的平民怎麽會有帝國摧毀死亡的人數多。兩害相遇取其輕，帝國給予他們崇高的地位，是為了讓他們能乖覺的待在浮空城，這個為他們建造的牢籠。”霧雨公主說道，黎梨不懷疑她此時的真摯，她是真心這樣認為的，“帝國皇室不愧對于帝國的民衆，我也是。”

這位皇室的公主心中有她的大義，她認為自己所作所為皆是正義。

而在聽到這個消息之後，黎梨難得沉默了。

她一直感覺有一層迷霧遮擋着自己的視線，而在這時，這層迷霧被揮散了些許。

如果是這樣，就說得通了。她想到。

“帝國承受不了動亂，我說的是真的。”霧雨公主仍然在表達自己的觀念，她黎梨的眼睛，無比真誠的說道，“我們不是敵人，你應當是我們帝國的引路人。”

“這是從預言中聽來的？”黎梨突然說道。

霧雨公主神情一頓，她沒有立刻回答，但是這就給出了答案。

黎梨覺得有意

公主說道：“或許能夠推翻帝國，但是在戰争的過程中，一切都會毀滅。”她認真的說，“門外的那些人，這個城市的人，全部全部。”

“你覺得我會信你嗎？”黎梨說道。

“我相信你會。”霧雨公主說道，“你是個聰明人。”

黎梨頭一次覺得自己沒有被誇到。

“真有趣。”她露出真實的笑意，她是真的覺得有意思。

霧雨公主的意思很明确，皇室雖然是這個帝國的階級最上層，但是異能社會不同于現實社會，這裏的異能者擁有太過強大的力量，帝國皇室是為了帝國穩定才給與貴族權利。

因為他們要舍棄被貴族們玩鬧似的殺死的人，換取貴族頂層那些SS階的自由限制。

而他們這麽做的原因是，SS階能夠毀滅世界。

帝國已經承受不了動亂了。公主是這麽說的。

黎梨聽說過一個說法，二次元的世界按照高武高魔和低武低魔劃分，那麽《極致黑白》的漫畫世界明顯就是高魔世界。而還有一個說法，高魔伴随着不穩定。

世界随随便便就能被強大的異能摧毀，它自然不穩定。

而《極致黑白》的世界，應當就是這樣一個不穩定的高魔世界。

怪不得SS階聚集在浮空城，怪不得臨染和覺回深就算不在浮空城他們也待在自己的城市。他們好像非常與世無争，明明他們擁有十分強大的力量。

也怪不得，無異能的皇室能夠管理貴族。

The last piece of the missing puzzle was filled in, and the fog in front of her eyes was completely dispelled. Li Li knew everything.

She stood up, without saying what she thought, or whether she was willing to help her, and she did not decisively say "We will not be friends" like she did to Lin Ran. She did not give the princess any answer, but turned around and opened the door.

Some of what the princess said was right, such as this world is fragile, and SS-rank can easily destroy the world.

She also had secrets, she infinitely weakened the power of the royal family itself, and there was an unexpected pause when Li Li mentioned the prophecy.

But for Li Li, she already knew what she wanted to know.

As she pushed the door open, she caught a glimpse of her own face in the mirror beside her.

With just such a casual glance, recalling the coldness revealed by the pair of red pupils in the mirror, she suddenly realized something.

You can't hide the look in your eyes when you want to stab someone.

But after closing the door, she closed her eyes again and quickly suppressed her murderous intent.

Now is not the time.

After that, she turned around and put on her habitual smile again.

Jianyue had already left, but Sang Feiling was still here, sitting in a wheelchair, waiting for her to come out. When she looked over, Sang Feiling even greeted her.

"This is our first official meeting," Sang Feiling said. "Hello, my name is Sang Feiling."

Li Li looked at Sang Feiling's shattered face, the empty skirt legs hanging from her wheelchair, and the gentle yet energetic smile she gave her when she looked at her.

She never felt that she could lead an organization because she didn't think her beliefs were stronger than those of people like Sang Feiling.

In fact, she respected such people very much, but at this moment, she wanted to lie to her.

Maybe she had wrapped herself in lies to get all the shackles she has gotten so far.

"I've seen you

"It was recommended by Lin Ran," Li Li said.

Sang Feiling seemed very surprised. Li Li didn't wait for her to say anything and continued to ask, "Do you regret it?"

"Regret?" Sang Feiling was unable to react to the sudden change in the topic.

"I listened to the prophet and took this path." Li Li said again.

She then shook her head again and said to herself: "No, you won't regret it."

"You are both right." She murmured, ignoring Sang Feiling's expression, and turned away.

After performing her expected reaction, Li Li thought that the moment she had been waiting for seemed to have arrived.

If we delay it any further, it will be disrespectful to her performance.

...

On a summer night, after achieving his first complete victory, Yiming still did not relax his demands on himself. He ran along the border of Somemu Castle, exercising himself while keeping alert.

The trees passed quickly before his eyes, and he ran forward step by step, panting heavily.

But just as he ran to the outskirts of the former Dawn City, a figure seemed to appear among the trees.

Before he could see clearly, a familiar female voice rang in his ears.

"Chat?"

He turned his head, the black dress looked like a blooming flower in front of him. Li Li stopped in front of him, the smile on her face that would smile at him was faint, with an indescribable meaning.

I feel a little sad.

It was the pretty girl who looked like Li. I recognized her the moment I heard her.

At the same time, he heard himself say, "Okay."

He couldn't refuse the request.
