Chapter 247 Seeing Through Lies
Chapter 247 Seeing Through Lies
Hearing such a shocking secret, even Miss was a little stunned.
“Miss, Fufu is just a girl who wants to live a normal life, but she is forced to become the target of public criticism after this Dragon God Festival.
Not only does she have to face the relentless attacks of the rebels, but she is also spurned by the people she has protected for thousands of years.
She won’t be able to hold on, she’ll really collapse.”
Mis could hear the determination in her voice and knew that she was not afraid of death.
only. . .
"Aunt Shu Ruier, your approach is only treating the symptoms and not the root cause.
The source of the crisis in Dragon City is not the depleted dragon balls, but the Red Dragon King Reid.
You can sacrifice your life this time to stop Red's rebels from entering the city, but Red will not give up. "
Shu Ruier was about to open her mouth to explain herself, but Miss predicted what she would say.
"Aunt Shurel, the protective barrier I set up is not permanent. It cannot protect Dragon City until the day Red dies.
To tell you the truth, the barrier will disappear as soon as I leave Dragon City.
You should know that if I want to leave, Sylph will not stop me."
If Shurel doesn't understand Miss, how could she not understand Sylph?
She knew that there was nothing wrong with what Miss had just said.
That Fu Fu would not do anything against anyone's will, especially not against the person who had set up the protective barrier for the city.
Shuriel also knew that the reason for the depletion of dragon balls and the root cause of the crisis in Dragon City were both Red.
Red is the source of all evil on Sky Island.
She also knew that her death could only stop Red temporarily.
But Shu Ruier had no intention of giving up her idea.
She understands the reason.
The situation did not allow her to be rational.
At the Dragon God Festival tomorrow, the probability that Red will take the initiative to provoke a fight is 100%.
Unless Red is prevented from entering the city, or the Dragon Ball recognizes Sylph as its master, the tragic ending of Sylph and Sylvia both falling into Red's hands will not change.
Shu Ruier believed that it was impossible for the Dragon Ball to recognize its master.
But preventing Red from entering the city is up to human beings.
“Miss is right, my approach cannot fundamentally solve the problem.
However, we can first solve the urgent problem of tomorrow's Dragon God Festival.
As long as I can protect Fufu and the others for a while, my old bones won't be wasted."
After reaffirming her thoughts, Shu Ruier took a step forward and prepared to walk out of the secret room.
Miss looked at the calm demeanor of the old man, who did not look like he was going to die at all. Instead, he looked like a knight accepting an award from the king.
At this point, a certain doubt that he had harbored a year ago was completely shattered by the scene before him.
"With what mentality and identity does Aunt Shurel intend to die in front of the tribe members?"
Shu Ruier slowed down her pace and finally stopped outside the utility room door.
She looked back at Miss in the secret room, with a puzzled look on her face.
Miss didn't keep the question secret and asked directly.
"Aunt Shu Ruier, when you decided to sacrifice yourself, who did you feel most guilty about?
Who are you thinking about at this moment?
Is it Fufu or Xilu?"
When Shu Ruier heard Miss's question, she was shocked and her expression froze.
When their eyes met, one pair of eyes trembled slightly.
She was not even sure whether the person who asked the question just now was Miss or herself.
Seeing Shurel at a loss and at a loss, Miss sighed.
"Aunt Shurel, you gave the two dragon armors that Xilu had when she was born to Red, right?"
Miss's words were like a huge meteorite falling from the sky, smashing Shurel into the abyss.
Her eyes almost popped out of their sockets, and her heart was filled with endless doubts.
"How did you know?"
Mis spoke calmly to clear up Shurel's confusion.
"If I were Red, I would go to so much trouble to send spies into the main city of Dragon City, not just to steal Xilu's companion dragon armor.
Instead, he had to steal the newly hatched Xilu out.
Not only can he obtain the pure-blood dragon scales, but he can also threaten Sylph with Xilu's life, getting the best of both worlds.
There is no way Red didn't know this.
Why did the traitor only steal Xilu's companion dragon armor and not kidnap Xilu herself?
There is only one reason, this traitor cares about Xilu's safety."
While Miss asked and answered himself, he kept staring at the changes in Shurel's expression.
“Aunt Shurel, this traitor who is particularly concerned about Xilu’s safety, can not only contact Xilu in the main city.
And he has the ability to ensure that he will not be caught or even suspected after taking away Xilu's companion dragon armor.
In the entire dragon clan, you are probably the only one who meets the above conditions."
After listening to Miss's explanation, Shu Ruier's whole body relaxed and her eyes became dull and empty.
Her voice was weak, and every word sounded like her last words.
"Miss, it turns out you had guessed it a year ago."
"Aunt Shuriel, can you tell me the reason? Why did you steal Xilu's dragon armor and give it to Red?"
Shurel thought back to the incident that had tormented her for a thousand years, and she still felt remorseful and burst into tears again.
Miss waited quietly, waiting for her emotions to settle for a long time.
"I...was threatened by Red."
Mith was puzzled, "A threat?"
The old man wiped away his tears and recalled the events of a thousand years ago.
“I personally experienced that battle a thousand years ago.
I know how powerful the God-King Tartarus is.
Now that Lord Hatti is gone, no one on Sky Island can be his match.
So Red threatened me that if I didn't steal the princess's dragon armor, he would ask the God King to come again.
By then, there will be countless casualties in Dragon City. Civilians will die, princesses will die, and Fu Fu will be no exception."
As Miss listened, he squinted his eyes unconsciously.
Shu Ruier had a painful expression on her face, "Miss, to save the lives of Fufu and Her Royal Highness the Princess, and for the people in the city.
I had no choice but to agree to Red's request and steal the princess's companion dragon armor.
In this way, we can prevent the God King Tartarus from coming again."
Seeing the old man's inner struggle and pain, Miss didn't react much, just shook his head slightly.
"Aunt Shurel, why don't you tell me the truth?"
Facing Miss's questioning, Shu Ruier clenched her hands and her face turned pale.
Mith was convinced that Shurel was lying to him.
Lies were not what he wanted to hear.
And the other party’s lies are full of loopholes.
Thousands of years ago, if Red could really invite Tartarus to come again, there would be no need to steal Sylvia's scales.
Without Dragon King Hatti, the new Dragon King Sylph is unable to fully control the Dragon Balls.
As long as Tartarus can strike again, not to mention the scales and armor, even Dragon City will be in Red's hands.
However, Red did not use his ultimate move, but was still trying hard to get the pure-blood dragon armor.
This only means one thing, that he can't ask the God King to take action again.
