Chapter 1062 One hundred and twenty nine. End

  Claire, who stepped up the steps, disturbed the quiet beauty, opened the palm of the black robe, took out a quarter of the ancient stone seal, and returned to Lu Li and handed it to him.

   "We can leave now."

The players in the    hall quietly cast their gazes and watched them step out of the hall, out of the castle, and out of the manor.

   In the cold, silent and empty city, Lu Li and Claire walked along the long street, his footsteps echoing.

   After passing the intersection, many figures began to appear on both sides of the road, and they stood quietly as they faded. Some of the outlines that Lu Li had seen and named were still bright and distinct.

   "It is a rare honor to follow you." Willett Marvin slapped his bloodstained breastplate.

   "In the original story, we should have turned enemies into friends..." Alexis Mengsk said with a wry smile.

   "I became friends with Keanuette after that duel, in the true story." Keengard grinned unsightly.

   Lu Li lost the power to communicate with them, and he could only move forward, like flipping through a book and reading the characters that the character said to "me".

   "Do you think eight legs are sexier than two?" Ida asked curiously.

   "I am indeed a member of the balanced church, just not that bad." Professor Hagrid, who was not in the crowd, said calmly.

   "I should be on the scene! Then die in your arms!" Fudot got angry with her eldest lady.

   "It was supposed to be my death that awakened you... but Sterling took the lead." The old professor said helplessly.

   "Exorcist, remember that science is no less than a mysterious force, otherwise why would they prevent us from learning?" The scientist next to him, Stirling, said solemnly.

   "I didn't expect to meet again like this..." said Professor Cesar, who felt lost.

   "You destroyed the stronghold of the earth dwellers! ... But it's not true anyway, I'm not an earth dweller anyway."

   "It's really dead this time." Margaret looked at her indifferently.

   "My stories... have been deleted..." Dogmeat bowed his head sadly like an abandoned puppy.

  The symbol of Midnight City without walls stands in the distance like a shadow.

   "I'm sorry, Your Excellency Lu Li, we deceived you." Pasha Rivas held down his armor and apologized.

   "Thank you for letting me taste the beauty of humanity at the last moment." Brits Thiel greeted Lu Li.

   "I hope you can find the old guy in the future and say hello to him for me." Silver Cross Sloan holding the "Old Guy" silver crossbow

   said.

   "Boom--" Thoth slapped his shield.

   "Root...Thank you...Exorcist..." Root's human language became awkward again.

   "I'm just a duty request to you, although I really don't like you." The thin gatekeeper said coldly.

   "Heinz Ellis is honored to work with you." Heinz Ellis stroked his chest in a noble salute.

   "Thank you for burying my mother...that's enough." The melancholy Ole Lorenzo smiled.

   "I didn't teach you anything, but Claire, who I taught, taught you." Mangshi Ray grinned.

   "The story is over... It's not very complete, but it's still beautiful." Claire, who was standing in the crowd, sighed and smiled.

  I don't know where to start, but Claire by my side disappeared. From the beginning to the end, only the sound of Lu Li was heard.

   "Need a junkhouse book list? Let me figure out where I can get it..." Mildred Hampley was still thinking about Lu Li's cursed title.

   "Uh...I don't know what to say..." The restrained Tovani squandered the opportunity.

   "I'm from Blackbox, if it still exists, can you please send me a letter to my wife?" grieving Nunes muttered sadly.

   "I see your future! There are flowers everywhere, the birds are singing, the trees are growing, the people are laughing..." The Unnamed Lady rubbed her crystal ball.

   "Being teammates with you is like a dream...even if it's not real." Naxi said gratefully.

   "I really have the title of [Edge Walker]! It's a pity that after the first bite, the second bite follows..." Benteler regretted it.

   "Fortunately, I was with my teammates at that time..." Jaeger smiled calmly.

   "I will remember the master's redemption." Kane bowed gratefully.

  Lu Li arrived at the circular square in front of the city gate.

  Two long streets extend from here, one leads from the foot of Lu Li to the Alchemy Tower, and the other extends to the World Tree in the center of Midnight City.

   The silhouettes gathered around turned into figures they had never met before, shrouded in mist.

   "This is our little gift." The outline of a teaching uniform.

   "You don't know me at this time." Tall and thin silhouette.

   "..." The silent silhouette.

   "You redeemed us... Now, it's our turn." Unknown silhouette.

   "You deserve it, you deserve your life." An upside-down silhouette.

   "Instead of just doing the right thing like a marionette..." added outline.

   "hs...luh...yud..." An incomprehensible outline.

   Near the black minaret standing in the square, Lu Li saw a quarter of the depression on the minaret that could be inlaid.

   saw many people standing around.

Willett Marvin, Alexis Mengsk, Keengard, Ida, Professor Hagrid, Old Professor, Sterling, Professor Cesar, "The Dweller", Margaret, Dogmeat, Pasha Rivas, Blitz Thiel, Silver Cross Sloan, Thoth, Root, Skinny Gatekeeper, Heinz Ellis, Ole Lorenzo, Lion Ray , Claire, Mildred Hampley, Tovani, Nunes, The Unnamed Lady, Nassi, Bentler, Jaeger, Kane, The Profilers, Chriss.

"There are too many gods, so I prefer people." The shimmering Chriss held Lu Li's palm and the quarter stone seal, stroking Lu Li's shoulder to make him turn to the city gate .

   "Keep going, don't look back."

   Lu Li's figure gradually disappeared, and the dark and tall city gate became clearer.

   "The Exorcist..."

  Will Ken's voice sounded at this moment, and the parchment on his chest radiated heat, restoring Lu Li's body.

   "Put that stone seal into the spire and restore the Alchemy Tower... Trust Will."

   stopped temporarily, and Lu Li continued to move forward.

   "They're already dead and using you..."

   "There is no difference between what you do and what the séance rope used to be."

   "Their bodies have long been occupied by the weird..."

"Where are you going?"

   "You told me."

  Lu Li said calmly, stepping into the shadow under the city gate.

   "'Keep the investigator's prudence and objectively examine everything around you, including me'... This is my choice for thinking."

  Darkness followed Lu Li out of the city gate and returned to his body.

  Will Ken's futile roar went away, the alchemy tower in the dark depths collapsed silently, like a breeze wiped, the silhouettes on the square behind and Midnight City dissipated with the wind.
