530. question

Enid turned to look at Nelly.

Nelly nodded.

Regardless of the risk, they had to accept Lamont's request to chat.

Because neither Enid, Nellie, nor Veronica have any confidence in defeating Lamont.

Lamont is a demon who fell from the sky, and they are just mortals trying to fight against the demon. Even if they master the sacred objects to fight against the demon, it never means that the status of both parties has changed.

Enid asked:

"What do you want to talk about?"

Lamont smiled and said:

"That's right, you are all smart people. In the past, due to disputes over interests, I did not respect your lives enough.

"I'm sorry for that, but now our position has changed, and it's clear that the cost of destroying you is far higher than the negotiation itself.

"I believe that we can all be satisfied with the result today."

Nelly frowned and said:

"Has anyone ever told you that what you said was arrogant?"

Lamont shook his head:

"No, but it doesn't matter to me. It's because you are smart enough that I say this, because you should be able to understand that I am different from most humans. I will not hate you just because you and I were once hostile.

.

"To me, your life or death is not important, so I will not deliberately kill you.

"If you are a fool, you may get furious when you hear me say this, but I understand you and you can understand what I mean."

Of course Nelly understands.

His arrogance is so natural, and it is this arrogance that ensures that Lamont will not go back on his word as conventional wisdom suggests.

Human beings will not care about the ants at their feet, just as gods will not care about the joys and anger of mortals.

There is indeed a possibility of reaching a consensus between them.

Lamont asked:

"Miss Enid, you received help from Vortigern, right? So what did you pay for? I want to know the secret between you two."

Enid asked:

"Oh, now you don't know?"

Lamont said:

"My abilities have limits. I don't know many things. For example, I don't know where the stickmen come from, what their purpose is, and what disasters they will cause. I don't know how great Odin is and how many times he has ruled the nine worlds.

centuries.

"I also don't know how Mr. Hevin deceived me. I don't know that Vortigern can block my sight, just like I don't know where the end of the universe is? Is there the ultimate truth?

"Similarly, I don't know what would happen in this world if Vortigern and King Arthur were both alive. They would perform a first-class show.

"Don't you look forward to it?"

Nelly said:

"But a lot of people could die because of this crazy idea."

Lamont smiled:

"Have you forgotten? I just said that.

"I don't care whether you live or die."

Nellie just looked at Lamont.

Lamont looked back at Enid:

"So, what exactly did you promise Vortigern?"

Nelly replied:

"Veronica surrendered her territory, and now Vortigern's power can seep into reality."

Lamont said:

"Not only that, this thing is worthless compared to the help he provides you, and if the little princess doesn't have land for him, he won't be able to help you cover your sight. This is a necessary price."

Enid said:

"one thing."

"whats the matter?"

"anything."

Enid looked Lamont in the eyes and said this.

Lamont said thoughtfully:

"So if he wants, he can already get your body?"

Enid said:

"That's right."

Lamont said:

"Since you confessed to me, I will also tell you the truth. My purpose is exactly what I just said. I am very curious about what will happen after Vortigern and Arthur are resurrected, so I want them to come back to life.

"And I won't hurt any of you if you help me."

Nelly said:

"You want Enid to hand over her body."

Lamont nodded and said:

"Yes, but this does not mean that she must die. I know a lot, and knowledge itself is power. For example, someone among us is bound to die, her or me, but if you know enough, you can avoid many

Unnecessary conflict.

"I know how to take the soul out of the body and put it in another body. Enid has to give her body to Vortigern, it's just inevitable.

"But she can survive. As long as she finds a suitable container, death is not a necessary price."

Nelly said:

"You want us to help you hurt innocent people?"

Lamont said:

"Killing innocent people is not my purpose, and can Vortigern and Arthur really kill many people in their fight? Compared to those real cannibal demons, the harm they can cause is extremely small.

"I once saw an evil spirit that took pleasure in the negative emotions of other beings, and without my intervention, perhaps millions of souls would have become consumables in its fun.

"I have saved many more people than I will ever kill."

Nelly retorted:

"Life cannot be measured this way."

Lamont nodded and said:

"Unfortunately, the same goes for Enid's life. Do you want her to die? Let one person die in exchange for the lives of countless people?
