Chapter 179: At Worst, Use Your Trump Card
Chapter 179: At Worst, Use Your Trump Card
Descending from a high altitude onto the cliff, Gu Chen came to Zhongli's side.
As he landed, a flash of starlight appeared around him, and Paimon appeared again.
The two of them just sat on the cliff, one calmly and the other in shock, looking at the grand scene in front of them.
The sea was turbulent when Yunlai came. The originally blue sea surface had turned into a turbid gray. Huge waves rolled everywhere, stirring up the entire sea.
There was a howling wind in the sky, mixed with an extremely unsettling aura and atmosphere, which made everyone who felt this aura feel panic.
But that's beside the point.
The point is, between the dark sky and the churning sea, stands a gigantic, multi-headed sea dragon.
Looking closely, this multi-headed sea dragon is made entirely of water, and it roars!
Whether it is the turbulent turbid sea or the terrifying momentum mixed with strong winds, they all come from this multi-headed sea dragon!
Looking at the terrifying monster on the sea in the distance, Paimon was terrified:
"This... could this be... the Whirlpool Demon, Osel!"
Gu Chen shook his head slightly:
"To be precise, it is the incarnation of the water element formed by the terrifying power leaked from Osel."
"The incarnation of the water element!?" Paimon was genuinely frightened. "So, this isn't Osel's true form yet!?"
Gu Chen's expression was relatively calm:
“It’s true that he’s not Osel’s true self, but it doesn’t matter if you think of him as Osel’s true self.
Because as long as his incarnation is defeated before Osel's real body is completely unsealed, Osel will not be able to get out.
Furthermore, any damage inflicted on this avatar will be reflected back to Osel's original body."
When Gu Chen made this inference, there was a faint light in his eyes, and it was obvious that his Ultra Vision was turned on.
Paimon, who was standing next to him, noticed this and believed in his inference, so he nodded with a little relief.
At this time, Gu Chen couldn't help but glance at Zhongli next to him:
“This is your plan, your test, right?
To be honest, it was quite a big scene.”
Zhongli was so calm and composed:
"fine.
So far, everything is going according to my plan.
Even if Osel really breaks the seal, it doesn’t matter. Don’t we still have you?
If the situation really becomes critical, I will personally take action."
Gu Chen's expression was a little subtle:
"If you take action yourself, does that mean the people of Liyue have failed your test?"
Zhongli shook his head slightly:
“That’s not the case.
Whether the test is passed depends on the performance and actions of the people of Liyue during the crisis.
No matter how powerful the enemy is, no matter how difficult the test is.
As long as the people of Liyue do their best and demonstrate sufficient responsibility during this crisis, I will consider it a test they have passed."
Nodding, Gu Chen seemed to understand:
"I see. It's not the result that matters, it's the process."
After thinking about it, he became thoughtful:
"Indeed, a predetermined fate can be changed. Who knows where this trial will ultimately lead?"
When he said this, Gu Chen couldn't help but look at Zhongli again:
“I’m talking about Zhongli.
According to my experience, this big event will definitely not go as smoothly as you think, and there will definitely be some unexpected problems.
Just in case, I suggest you prepare in advance to avoid being caught off guard."
Zhongli smiled confidently:
"Don't worry, I'm mentally prepared."
To be honest, the weight of rock is indeed reassuring, and the weight of the Rock King is even more so.
When Zhongli made such a promise, Gu Chen felt much more at ease and felt that he had nothing to worry about.
No matter what happens next, he can do whatever he wants, even using that thing...
That’s right, Gu Chen has already realized it.
He felt that today's grand scene would definitely not be as simple as the original game plot.
If things go wrong, it might develop to a point where it cannot be resolved with my current strength.
In that situation, if Zhongli doesn't make a final move, I can only fight hard.
It can’t be said to be a fight, to be precise it is... a real move.
Just as Gu Chen was thinking this, Zhongli looked over again with a smile:
"In fact, not only do I have to be mentally prepared, you have to be mentally prepared too."
Gu Chen couldn't help but look over in confusion:
"What do you mean?"
Nodding slightly in thought, Zhongli said:
“I didn’t notice anything.
But I think, with your personality, you must be hiding a hidden trick.
When you use this trump card, I'm afraid you won't need me anymore."
Paimeng, who was standing next to him, listened to Zhongli's words and looked at Gu Chen thoughtfully:
"True card?"
After thinking carefully with his chin pinched, Paimon nodded seriously:
“Yeah, I agree.
According to Gu Chen's character, he should really do this! Keep some cards that even I don't know!
Wow! Zhongli, you really understand him! I hadn't even thought of this possibility!
Having said that, Paimeng looked at Gu Chen with curiosity and interest:
"What exactly is the trump card? Can you reveal it?"
Looking at Zhongli's teasing eyes on the left and Paimon's curious eyes on the right, Gu Chen felt a little helpless.
He responded:
“The reason why the trump card is called a trump card is that it will not be easily revealed until the critical moment.
Please put aside your curiosity for now. Now is not the time to be curious.
Look, Osel is about to launch an offensive..."
As Gu Chen pointed, and as Zhongli and Paimeng looked forward, they discovered...
Sure enough, Osel, who was between the dark sea and sky, took the lead in attacking!
While releasing the breathtaking demonic pressure, he also burst out unimaginable water elements into the sky!
These water elements were like rockets, condensing into countless rays that shot up into the sky, drew a long arc in the sky, and finally bombarded the Qun Yu Pavilion!
This wave is a saturation attack of water elements!
I wonder if Qun Yu Pavilion can hold on?
As it turned out, Qun Yu Pavilion survived.
It seems that when it was first built, the Qun Yu Pavilion was not only a luxurious place to live, but could also be used as a war fortress.
The Qun Yu Pavilion itself is very sturdy, and Ningguang activated the protective formation in time, and there are so many masters and immortals gathered there at this time.
With the two sides working together, Osel's wave of saturated water element attacks did not cause much damage to the Qun Yu Pavilion!
The roaring and splashing water elements exploded and scattered. After these water elements completely flowed away, the Qun Yu Pavilion that had just been covered by the attack was revealed.
The Qun Yu Pavilion was still as magnificent and huge as before, it just shook a few times and didn't seem to have any damage.
Watching all this from afar, Paimeng on the cliff couldn't help but sigh:
"Wow! As expected of Ningguang, the Jade Pavilion is so extraordinary!"
Gu Chen was not too happy:
"Don't be too happy too soon, this is just Osel's first wave of temptation."
