Su Mingan and Lu Shu rushed into the range of the World Tree.
Perhaps Alger was not yet proficient in summoning, and under Mizushima Kawase's suicide attack, the mechanical shadow failed to descend.
Thick red and black clouds still floated in the sky, lingering and lingering, like an upside-down hell.
"Close your eyes!" Lu Shu suddenly said.
Su Mingan closed his eyes immediately.
“Swish! Swish! Swish!”
The sound of a knife.
The sound of a knife cutting through branches.
Su Mingan's full head of white hair blew in the wind, covering his face and almost piercing his eyes. If he had known this would happen, he should have cut all of Su Liujin's hair.
“Shua!”
Like a cat rolling into a huge ball of wool, he opened his eyes slightly and saw the bark of the tree nearby. The crystal-colored branches and leaves covered the sky, densely entangled and intertwined, with a bright color.
...What a beautiful tree, like a collection of all magnificent dreams.
But it is such a tree that has caused so many tragedies.
In the colorful light, Lu Shu raised his hands forward.
His black knife was imbued with divine power, and instantly became sharp and long, dancing with colorful fireflies, so beautiful that... it was incompatible with him.
"I'll split the bark and we'll rush in."
Facing the last line of defense of the World Tree, Lu Shu used all his strength and raised the colorful blade with both hands. The strong wind blew his white hair, and he looked like a piece of snow on the verge of melting.
A powerful aura continuously gathered, expanded, and swelled in Lu Shu's hands.
“Hoo—hoo—hoo—”
Winds of energy surround, blow, scream, and sing the sound of joy.
“Ka-ka-ka-ka-ka-”
A crisp cracking sound was heard.
Su Ming'an turned his head and saw cracks appearing on Lu Shu's mask as Lu Shu's momentum soared.
“Crack, crack, crack—”
The sound grew louder and louder, and through the gap, Su Mingan could already see Lu Shu's face - a face covered in blood.
Blood flowed out of Lu Shu's seven orifices, even his clear eyes were blood red, and the whites of his eyes were almost covered with black. The bloodstains were everywhere, which was extremely terrifying.
But Lu Shu's expression remained calm.
“…”
Su Mingan wanted to say something, but when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back.
What should he say? Ask Lu Shu to stop? He couldn't stop.
The outcome of this time is already determined, and only "next time"... can change all despair.
"Su Mingan." Lu Shu suddenly spoke.
Su Mingan listened.
“I hope that we can defeat the World Tree this time, and there won’t be a next time.” Lu Shu said.
“But this time…” Su Ming’an shook his head. If he succeeded this time, it would mean that Yamada Machi and the others would be dead, and Lu Shu would not be able to survive even after swallowing the godhead, leaving him alone alive.
But Lu Shu said that this was good.
“I’m a little selfish.” The long sword in Lu Shu’s hand became brighter and brighter, and his aura became more unstable:
“I prefer to be safe rather than perfect.”
"I can accept this ending."
Su Mingan thought that after getting enough information this time, he would try his best to make it perfect next time.
But Lu Shu thought, if he could succeed, if Su Mingan could survive, he shouldn’t think about the next time which might not even exist.
All players can be resurrected, and he is the only one who will die.
"Have you been planning this for a long time?" Su Ming'an suddenly stared at the crisscrossing blood on Lu Shu's face.
“What?” A hint of surprise flashed across Lu Shu’s green eyes.
"You have been planning this for a long time... You are going to do this." Su Ming'an stared at him: "The black-robed man from the eighth world, the electronic ghost from the ninth world, the saint from the tenth world... I said I respect your sacrifice, so you started to not take yourself seriously at all. I helped you get revenge, so you feel that your life is complete and you have no regrets."
"So when you encounter a moment like this, you subconsciously feel that you can sacrifice yourself and don't consider your own life at all - you really don't consider it at all."
"You even feel secretly happy in your heart, feeling that you have become an important and irreplaceable role."
How could Lu Shu be so lucky to pick up the godhood of the Fun Demon accurately? Lu Shu's luck... has always been bad.
Given the Devil of Fun's habits, he would definitely throw his godhood to someone with a desire for self-destruction. Otherwise, if it was picked up by a coward, wouldn't the godhood be buried forever?
It was because Lu Shu had always wanted to die that he picked up the godhood.
“…”
Faced with Su Mingan's direct words, Lu Shu was speechless.
He admitted that he was indeed very happy the moment he picked up the Godhead. Even though he knew what would happen if he swallowed it, he was still happy that he had the power to change the situation.
So when he swallowed it, he did so without hesitation.
The colorful fluorescent light flashed, and the charging was almost completed. Lu Shu said softly: "I'm sorry."
"I didn't blame you." Su Mingan said:
"I mean, in a formal, irrevocable, no-next-time situation..."
"Think about yourself for a moment."
"Of course, if you still want to do this, I still won't stop you."
"You, and all of you, Noel, Yueyue, Yamada... I hope you... don't regard yourselves as tools."
Lu Shu's pupils trembled slightly, and his long sword had already accumulated enough energy, and fell down by inertia. His words "What about you?" were drowned out by the resounding sound of energy.
“Swish!”
With a violent tearing sound, the long knife slashed down and the bark was cut open.
