Chapter 35 You are a fake
Even if they were S-level guides and sentinels with high tacit understanding, they were obviously much stronger than a temporary team. Moreover, Maria, Ian and others had gone through countless life and death trials in the contaminated area.
If it weren't for the order from above, Alice's neck would have been broken by her at this moment.
Maria threw the person in her hand aside. The girl with black hair and black eyes sat on the ground in a mess, coughing uncontrollably.
Lilith quickly rushed over and pressed the bleeding part of her throat with concern.
"Alice, how are you?"
Si Jue... Qi Hanxing... She took a quick glance and saw that the two powerful sentinels were showing signs of weakness under the siege.
"Don't struggle. A sentinel without a spirit body is nothing more than that."
The snake's tongue made a hissing sound. Ian sat on the side with his legs crossed, watching his spirit body roll up the man and throw him down fiercely, laughing wantonly.
"Ahem...you guys are cheating?"
Qi Hanxing was thrown to the side of the girls, barely raising his head. His emerald green eyes caught the golden figure, and while his pupils relaxed slightly, his tone was gnashing his teeth.
"According to the rules, any team that cheats will be disqualified from the competition. I will... ahem, report you."
"Don't talk for now."
After treating Alice's wound, Lilith immediately bandaged Qi Hanxing's bleeding abdomen. Si Jue had fainted. She looked calm, but she was already anxious inside.
What's going on? Why is the plot different this time than in the game? Hasn't the heroine evolved? Why can't they defeat the Federation team?
She looked up at Ian who was high up in the sky. He landed on the ground with ease and came to Qi Hanxing with a smile.
"It's no use reporting it. After all, common sense would suggest that we would be suppressed spiritually just like you. But Maria is so powerful that this suppression is nothing to her. You're not as skilled as her, so just admit defeat."
He snorted disdainfully and turned his gaze to Lilith. At that moment, he felt as if he was locked in a demon's grip. The slender snake's tail touched his cheek, and the snake's scales were icy cold.
"So you are Lilith. You don't look so useless."
Does he know himself?
Lilith keenly sensed something was wrong from Ian's words. She suddenly made a move and grabbed the snake's tail with force. The slippery touch made her scalp itch, but she held on tightly.
"Ouch! That hurts! Impolite woman!"
Ian jumped up suddenly, pulled out his tail, and ran to Maria with a wronged look on his face.
"Maria..."
"Stop playing around and get down to business. Strange, didn't you say you've awakened? But we still have to go through with the plan."
"What exactly do you want to do? If you want the championship, we will just admit defeat."
Lilith said coldly that the plan had changed. The heroine seemed to have lost her ability to fight and had no chance of a Jedi counterattack. She always knew the situation and it was better to save her life at this time.
"Stop pretending, there's no one else here."
Maria's eyes flashed, and she snapped her fingers. The next moment, there was a "sizzling" sound of electricity. Qi Hanxing and the heroine trembled and closed their eyes.
"The signal has been blocked. What happens here will not be broadcast. Lilith, you won't forget your mission, will you?"
What's the meaning?
Lilith's pupils dilated uncontrollably, and a hint of shock flashed across her blue eyes.
"Stop pretending, let's just go through the motions. Come over here and let me stab you. Then I'll wake up Alice, make her attack out of grief and anger, and then wake up. After that, we can exit the scene smoothly~"
Ian said with a smile, playing with a small dagger in his hand. The tip of the dagger was like an ice spike and was extremely sharp.
Although the others did not speak, they looked at Lilith as expected.
No, something's wrong. Wasn't the original owner just a cannon fodder, a fake daughter? Why would she be involved with the Federation?
"Is this your mission?"
Lilith's palms were covered in cold sweat. She pinched the hem of her skirt, her pupils full of coldness, and asked sarcastically,
The tall woman's expression turned cold, and she came in front of Lilith in a flash. She leaned down and
"Are you going to disobey orders, Lilith?"
So fast... Can the guide also have such a fast speed? Compared with her, even the heroine looks like a toddler.
Such a person is not someone the heroine can deal with at all.
"I mean, there must be other ways. You don't have to stab me, right?"
In the blink of an eye, Lilith's expression changed. She blinked at Maria, and her eyes were filled with indescribable ambiguity.
The plot has been changed too much, is it the butterfly effect? Or is she not doing enough to assist the male and female protagonists? When did the original owner become a federal spy? Why is there no mention of it in the game?
No matter what, she couldn't reveal the fact that she knew nothing. Lilith brainstormed, thinking about how to fool the people in front of her.
She knew, of course, that a few words alone would not dispel the other party's murderous intent, but if she could delay it a little longer and let the people outside notice something was wrong in the virtual space, perhaps the game could be terminated.
"You want to delay?"
Maria smiled knowingly, and gently touched the girl's cheek with her fingertips. Then she slowly moved her bony hands down to open the collar of her uniform, pushing the buttons aside.
Her hands were very cold, but Lilith was tense and didn't dare to move. The venomous snake was wrapped around her waist, and its fangs were shaking like a threat.
"Alice is the epitome of all the beautiful things in fairy tales. She is the most perfect guide the Federation has ever cultivated. She is innocent, kind, gentle, and lovely. All Sentinels will love her."
Maria's eyes revealed a trace of pity as she looked down at the blonde girl with blue eyes. She placed her hand on Lilith's chest and applied a little force.
"And you, don't you think your name is very similar to hers? Because you are a fake created to complement her. As the incarnation of the witch, Lilith, even your name only exists because of her."
"Your mission is to serve as a stepping stone for Alice's growth, and to turn into ashes when she no longer needs you."
"Don't struggle. The bomb in your body will explode immediately when the controller is activated, and your body will disappear in the fireworks. Lilith, your fate is death."
Her heart ached so much that it felt like it was about to explode. Lilith lowered her head. The white-gold lines on her heart below her collarbone were as vivid as a burnt brand.
