Chapter 436 Let go of obsession?
The gold coins that I earned by completing tasks with great effort have not even warmed up in my hands, and in the blink of an eye, they are going to be given to the heavily armored guards?
Well, it wasn't that hard actually. I got it all for free thanks to the clues Lu Li provided...
But what's the point of giving something to someone?
Doesn't Boss Lu Li plan to use these gold coins to exchange for rewards?
"Hurry up, don't dawdle." Li Luo added:
"This is Lu Li's order."
When the players heard that the girl was conveying the message, they all threw out gold coins even though they had doubts in their hearts.
Among them, Amir looked the most distressed.
It was as if what he threw away was not gold coins, but his life.
"Hey, my perfect quality item..."
Seeing that everyone had thrown their gold coins, Li Luo turned around and shouted to the heavily armored guards:
"After receiving this money, don't help the evildoers!"
The players suddenly realized what was going on.
The heavily-armored guards, who had been moving stiffly, seemed to be suddenly liberated. They shook their heads, threw away the long-handled axes in their hands, and bent down to pick up the gold coins on the ground.
When they had picked up most of the loot, they scattered like birds and beasts, running into the darkness and disappearing without a trace.
The prince's angry roar fell on deaf ears.
The mermaid guards quickly surrounded the prince, and Li Luo also came to Qian Tongdan's side.
The girl glanced at Emily, who was full of doubt, and said calmly:
"I can ask him to let you go, but you have to promise me first that you won't act impulsively."
"My benefactor promised to give you a satisfactory answer."
The doubt in Emily's eyes did not disappear because of the girl's words, she just stared at her.
A hoarse and unpleasant voice came out of the mermaid's mouth, and every word was filled with anger:
"Why should I believe you? You humans are all in the same group. You only know how to take advantage of us mermaids and seek longevity!"
"You have no choice." Li Luo's tone remained calm, but he stretched out his left hand and grabbed Emily's throat!
The shadow expanded and deformed under the girl, shooting out four black ribbon-like substances that tightly restrained the mermaid princess' limbs.
The mermaid guard was shocked upon seeing this.
But he didn't dare to move and could only stare at Li Luo and Emily nervously.
Seeing that she could not struggle any longer, Emily immediately asked for help from the mermaid guard not far away.
But no matter how she shouted, none of the mermaids who used to obey her dared to take a step forward.
Only when he was tired of shouting and calmed down did he face the reality and lower his head:
"I promise you, I won't act impulsively."
Li Luo had expected this, and replied expressionlessly:
"Release the dagger."
"You..." There was a hint of unwillingness in Emily's eyes, but she finally let go of her right hand.
The dagger stained with the mermaid's blood fell to the ground with a clang. The crisp and cold sound was like a signal.
The Monster Prince seemed to sense the favorable atmosphere and began to be less hysterical than before.
Li Luo looked indifferently at the prince not far away.
"I have another way to cure your strange disease."
"But the prerequisite is that you have to promise me to give up your obsession with finding immortality."
"From now on, you go your way, she swims her sea, and humans and mermaids will never meet again."
"Wow... do you know what bullshit you are talking about? Cure my strange disease... hehe... only fresh mermaid meat can do it!"
The prince smiled contemptuously: "I have tried many times, and I am only missing this last step... Ugh... and you tell me, do you have any other way?"
"Do you really think I'm a three-year-old kid...so easy to fool?!"
Li Luo did not argue, but took out something.
In an instant, the prince's pupils shrank sharply:
“Eh… this is…”
"Magic potion." Li Luo said:
"Now you believe it, don't you?"
"...Huh...it's actually a magic potion...that can cure all diseases?!" The prince's attitude changed instantly and he spoke cautiously.
"Yeah." Li Luo nodded.
"Cure for all diseases."
"Okay, okay... give it to me quickly!" the prince shouted, his pus-covered face full of greed.
"Then you promise me that you will let go of your obsession with finding immortality." Li Luo remained calm.
"Hmm...promise, I promise you...I'll let it go...I've let it go..."
There are no more measures and no more insurance.
The girl raised her hand gently and threw the potion to the prince.
The latter took it and drank it quickly.
Soon, his limp legs regained strength, and all the dirty things on his body fell off.
At the same time, Amir's face turned blue and he fell to the ground and vomited violently.
In the filth, you can see a large number of maggots struggling and twisting, gradually becoming rigid.
“It’s okay… I’m really okay! Hahaha!! My strange illness is cured!!”
The prince, who had regained his human form, laughed heartily, feeling extremely happy.
But the mermaid guards looked livid, obviously not happy to see this scene.
The mermaid princess Emily was so angry.
Seeing the other party's happy look, he wished he could rush to him right now, eat his flesh and drink his blood!
But since we had an agreement, I could only swallow my anger.
"Okay, let's all go." Li Luo said when he saw the prince return to normal.
"From now on, you go your way, she swims her sea, and humans and mermaids will never meet again."
The girl repeated what she had said before.
A look of greed flashed across the prince's eyes, but on the surface he kept responding:
"No problem, no problem!"
"From now on, the land and the sea will never have anything to do with each other, and they will be on opposite sides of the world!"
"It's just... she once saved my life, and I still have a few words to tell her..."
"I wonder if you, my dear guests, could give us some space to hide away?"
The mermaid guards looked resistant, and Emily frowned.
But Li Luo, contrary to everyone's expectations, nodded and said:
"Okay, we'll wait outside."
After saying that, he turned and left.
The mermaid guards wanted to approach the little princess, but were repelled by the girl's shout:
"go out!"
Qian Tongdan was full of confusion and couldn't help but ask Li Luo.
But the other party said nothing and showed no intention of answering him.
Just standing outside the wall, waiting silently...
Soon only the prince and Emily were left inside the wall.
The former walked slowly with a smile on his face to the place where the dagger fell.
Watch for a long time.
Emily saw this and showed a look of vigilance:
"You are still determined to kill me?"
The prince smiled and shook his head, and did not bend down to pick it up as the mermaid princess had imagined.
Instead, he crossed directly from above.
"Don't worry, you saved my life, I won't kill you."
Emily's eyes twitched, and she gritted her teeth and said:
"I only regret that I didn't drown you!"
The prince didn't care and continued talking to himself:
"Alas...longevity and immortality, how can one give up so easily..."
"Emily, it's rare for us to meet each other."
"You saved my life before, why not help me again now."
"How about taking this medicine and using it as my elixir of immortality?!"
After he finished speaking, the prince threw a circle of powder at the mermaid princess with lightning speed!
