Bizarre Detective Agency - Chapter 1433

Chapter 1433 Seventy-five. Sacrifice

One big swamp, one small swamp.

Princess Spider only has one chance, and it’s not a multiple choice question.

“Leave the big swamp to you, and the small swamp to me.”

Spider Princess nodded lightly, leaned forward trustingly, turned into a vertical rainbow and fell into the deep yellow sea.

Lu Li walked back to the Alchemy Tower Island along the creep. There are not many broken empty islands around, and even the edge of the alchemy tower island collapsed and crumbled.

“I found the location of two swamps.”

Lu Li said to his mother’s huge skull and the surrounding companions and allies: “Princess Spider will solve the former, and leave the latter to us.”

In the prophecy of the Eternal Dreamer, his arrangement for Lu Li is to “follow the heart”.

So Lu Li will go to the core of the small swamp with his mother.

Margaret and the others didn’t want Lu Li to take risks, but Lu Li just asked, “What will happen if the swamp gets out of control?”

“Everybody dies…”

“So I have to do it.”

The abilities of Tree Whisperer and Dreamer cannot be released, only the last cursed title remains: the crown of knowledge.

But that meant Lu Li had to pay the price.

Lu Li stepped up to the broad hilly skull, and followed the “mother” to spread the bone wings, passing over the alchemy tower.

The four alchemy towers under the feet shone with a crumbling dim light. Lu Li saw countless figures standing on the empty island of the four alchemy towers, looking up at the shadowed mother and him rushing to the depths of the swamp.

They couldn’t help, they could only suppress the swamp, waiting for Lu Li to bring back good news.

Deep into this dead and barren vast and dark swamp world, surrounded by an unspeakable gas that corrodes everything.

Lu Li held his breath, but he couldn’t stop them from corroding his hair and skin.

Yuan’s long heartbeat affected Lu Li who was approaching the filthy yellow **** that stretched out with hatred, but from another perspective, he was very close to the small swamp.

“My child… please take care of it.”

A voice suddenly echoed in Lu Li’s mind.

After a brief silence, Lu Li replied, “I hope you can take care of it yourself.”

“No, this is the duty of a guardian, even if only bones remain…”

Lu Li saw the core of the small swamp—a bright and eerie outline flickering in the dim depths.

The mother waved her bone wings and fell downward. Lu Li sacrificed some side-by-side memories to form the strength to hold him up, silently watching the self-sacrificing mother stabbing towards the beating heart of the swamp that was spreading faint yellow.

Looking into the distance made him dizzy, and the incomprehensible fighting swayed in the yellow mist, Lu Li couldn’t help but wonder if his choice was correct.

Out of trust in Everdreamer, he followed his heart. But if you stay outside and give the “mother” more humanity, will it save it from sacrificing itself?

Or, is this the worst ending of all endings?

The indescribable fight between his mother and the swamp continued. At this moment, Lu Li noticed that the dark yellow around him was fading layer by layer like the night at dawn.

Mother succeeded?

Lu Li raised his head, and saw the “brightness” that dispelled the dim yellow coming from behind.

Spider Princess made it.

As the dusk faded, the boundless gully stretched across the vast land within sight, and the four alchemy tower islands and other empty islands that lost their support fell into the deep mist that filled the bottom of the abyss.

The mothers of the swamp are still there, and they will not let the allies fall to their deaths.

Looking back to the small swamp, the darkness in the depths is also receding, and the whirling shadows emerge.

And the mother’s shadow, which is bigger than the city, is now as small as a castle, trembling like a young shadow in an eggshell.

Lu Li saw the silhouette spread out its bone wings, and wasps swarmed into the skeleton in the dark. The soul in the eye sockets of the dark yellow skeleton turned into ashes blown by the wind.

“Remember your promise…”

Mother’s whisper echoed in Lu Li’s ears.

As the yellow fog disappeared, the core of the dying swamp was almost revealed.

Just dying.

The swamp is still alive, and every time it beats weakly, the hazy haze expands a little more than before.

It won’t be long before it will grow into a swamp again amidst all existential desperation. And no more mothers or spider princesses to suppress it—

But Lu Li is here, he still has the crown of knowledge.

Lu Li fell towards the revived swamp like a comet. Mother sacrificed herself, so can he.

“…forget the Bloodstained.”

The surging power of the crown of knowledge surged around him, turned into a spear, and pierced the swamp.

The newborn yellow mist dispersed again, and the rest followed the consciousness of the swamp, entangled and corroded, preventing Lu Li from annihilating it.

The power of the blood-stained person gradually fades away, while the yellow mist gradually rises. Lu Li wanted to delay the swamp, or destroy it, so he could only continue to sacrifice knowledge.

“Forgotten Beacon.”

The strong plasticity emerged again, turning into a white mist to suppress and counteract the newly emerging vitality in the swamp.

The surrounding yellow mist was full of hatred and unwillingness, but it was not enough.

These are not enough to snuff out the last hope of the swamp.

“…Forgotten Tree Whisperer.”

The surging plastic energy washed away the yellow mist, and the decline of the swamp gradually became apparent, but it was not enough…

“Forget…the one who fell into the dream.”

Finally, Lu Li saw the indescribable core exposed. Dark yellow ooze like an irregular monolith. Then, like boiling water in a hot pot, the steam mist enveloped it again in a blink of an eye.

Lu Li no longer had any cursed titles to sacrifice, and the swamp was recovering every second.

If you stop here, all previous sacrifices will become meaningless.

Lu Li seemed to be a gambler with few chips left. Either call it quits and accept the doom, or give it all—

The sacrificial ceremony of the title of curse is that the more important the knowledge, the more important the memory, the stronger the plasticity of transformation.

And the memories and knowledge of the sidelines can only eliminate the yellow fog in the swamp, but they can’t eliminate the body, only that memory…

But Lu Li refused to forget Anna’s memory.

“All I have left is memories… You want to take that too?”

The crown of knowledge returns silence.

Besides sacrificing memory, Lu Li has one last resort. But when he was about to visualize the eye formed by the starry sky, a tremor in his soul warned him that doing so would bring terrible doom to the world.

A deep yellow haze was pervading, Lu Li didn’t have time to think. After a brief pause, he made his choice.

“I forgot the crown of knowledge, and…”

“Myself.”

Like a forgotten dreamer or a tree whisperer, massive evocations emerged, controlled by Lu Li’s last consciousness, crashing into the deep yellow ooze.

The mist transformed from plastic energy peeled off layers of shells, allowing Lu Li’s left hand to touch the core of the swamp.

The swamp that would have swallowed the world is constantly weakened, and it is annihilated and turned into dust.

In his final consciousness, Lu Li glimpsed the regression of the swamp… but it wasn’t death.

Then, the unconscious body continued to descend, falling into the deep abyss.

As ever.
