Chapter 834 Sibling Splitting Apart
Elizabeth stood in her front yard and looked into the distance. She saw the Death Spirit Dragon flying toward them, followed closely by two different dragons.
“Three dragons? What’s happening? This is weird. It’s rare enough to encounter one dragon, let alone three!”
A knight beside Elizabeth exclaimed.
“It seems that he came here not just to have a chat with me.”
“Do we need to prepare for battle? Those two dragons might be our enemies.”
“No need. Just wait for them to arrive. It’s useless to prepare for battle when just not reducing to ashes when facing these ancient dragons is good enough.”
Elizabeth had read many books that recorded many legends about these dragons. Therefore, she knew how terrifying these creatures were.
Soon, the Death Spirit Dragon took the lead and flew over.
The colossal body descended and soon landed.
Boom!
The Death Spirit Dragon landed in a hurry, crushing some of the surrounding buildings and raising clouds of dust.
A group of knights quickly surrounded Elizabeth in defensive formation. Even if their defense was insignificant, it was their duty to do so.
Immediately after, Walter staggered and fell from the dragon’s back.
He dropped heavily and could barely support himself to stand up.
He raised his head and looked at Elizabeth with a sorrowful expression.
“Sister, I… I might not live long.”
Elizabeth looked at his aged appearance and was surprised. It had only been a few months, and he had aged so much!
But soon, she frowned as she realized something.
She had heard from Lu Yu that Walter had joined the Truth Department, and she had also learned about the organization.
Of course, she also understood what the truth potion entailed.
She roughly guessed that Walter had drunk a truth potion in battle just moments ago, which was why he was in this state.
“Did you just drink a potion from the Truth Department?”
“That’s not important. There’s a bastard chasing me. He’s your friend, so you have to stop him.” He persuaded Elizabeth with a pleading tone.
Elizabeth frowned slightly. “I’ve already pleaded for you the last time, but you still acted stubbornly. If you continue to stay in the Truth Department, there’s nothing I can do.”
Walter instantly got anxious. “That bastard is about to catch up. Are you going to watch me die here? Do you want to see me die in front of you?”
“My real brother is long dead. You’re not him.” Elizabeth answered emotionlessly.
Walter was enraged after hearing that. “You! What are you talking about? You don’t want to acknowledge me as your brother?”
“That’s right. You have already embarked on a path of no return. Perhaps the best for you is death!”
Walter plopped to the ground, dumbfounded.
He thought that by coming here, he would be able to escape his death. If Lu Yu could let him off once, there would be a second time.
However, he had never expected Elizabeth’s attitude to change.
“Didn’t you do so much to save me? If you watch me die, won’t all that be in vain?”
Elizabeth continued indifferently, “I told you, the person I want to save is already dead. You’re not him.”
Walter slumped to the ground, his eyes glazing over.
At that moment, a loud bang was heard. The Water Spirit Dragon and the Fire Spirit Dragon landed on the two opposing city walls at the same time.
The soldiers on the city walls were so frightened that they retreated, not daring to advance a single step further.
The two dragons stood on the city walls and looked down, filling the entire stronghold with an imposing aura.
Lu Yu jumped down from the back of the Fire Spirit Dragon.
He sprung on his foot and landed on the city wall. With a jump, he landed inside the stronghold.
At that moment, Walter saw that the situation was not looking good. He quickly stood up and rushed toward Elizabeth.
Elizabeth was stunned when she saw Walter suddenly do this. She hurriedly turned around and tried to escape.
But the next moment, Walter rushed behind her and grabbed her, pressing a dagger against her neck.
Walter held Elizabeth hostage and faced Lu Yu, who had just reached them.
The surrounding knights were all shocked by the turn of events.
“Lu Yu, if you dare to take a step forward, I will kill her!”
Walter spat aggressively, and his eyes widened in anger. He glared at Lu Yu, and the dagger in his hand trembled. The sharp dagger was pressed against Elizabeth’s snow-white neck.
“Are you using your own sister as a hostage? It seems that you really went crazy.”
“I’m not crazy; you’re the crazy one! If you dare to take a step forward, I’ll do it. You don’t want to see her die, right?”
Lu Yu looked at Elizabeth and saw her frightened expression. He quickly comforted her, saying, “Don’t worry, I won’t let you die in this guy’s hands.”
Walter laughed out loud. “In that case, back off. Otherwise, you’ll be collecting her corpse!”
Elizabeth looked terrified. “Are you crazy? Are you taking me hostage?”
Walter sneered. “I’m about to die. What’s so surprising if I take you as a hostage? You were the one who’s so heartless and didn’t care about me living, so why should I care about you?”
Elizabeth could not help but tear up. Back then, she had volunteered to enter these ancient ruins and spent a lot of effort just to find Walter. She did not expect that after finding Walter, he would turn into someone like this.
Perhaps joining the Truth Department had only exposed his true nature, which he had been hiding all along.
“I’m disappointed in you…”
Elizabeth looked at Lu Yu and said, “Just kill him. I lost faith in him a long time ago. I know many people have gone missing from the Lionheart Empire recently.”
“It’s not just me. The entire Lionheart Empire has no expectations of him. They even consider him an enemy.”
Lu Yu nodded slightly after knowing that the higher-ups of the Lionheart Empire were aware of his doings, which meant that Walter had wholly betrayed the empire.
After killing many of the Lionheart Empire’s citizens, there was no turning back. How could he be forgiven after that?
“I won’t let you die, Elizabeth. Walter will be the only one who dies here today!”
Walter sneered. “Is that so? Make your move, then. Show me if you are faster or my dagger is faster!”
At that moment, Han Xuefei and Helen, on the city walls, closed their eyes simultaneously and released their spiritual senses. It acted like their eyes, sensing and seeing everything around them, and quickly focused around Walter!
