<Infinite Dendrogram>

Chapter 54 The Last Magic Bullet

□ ■ Northwest Kingdom of Alter · Forest

What a difficult situation, Ruuku

When Luke consolidated his reasoning about [Beldrion F] 's abilities, Taller appeared next to him as if he were rising from the ground.

The tarrah floats so that it runs parallel to Luke, who escapes from Beldrion F .

At the same time, he connects with Luke in "Spiritual Interference", a type of Reis' skill, and talks with his mind according to his speed of thought.

But this situation is terribly narrative.

If the villain kills all the protagonists, it's like he's been awakened and attacked back.

I'm not irritated by Taller's remarks, like some other HR.

"Did the Yellow River tell such a story hundreds of years ago?"

But. You knew this would happen, no matter how much?

……

It was obvious that they were carrying something.

In response to Taller's question, Luke answered silently and affirmatively.

An anomaly in Igoronac's stance on Infinite Dendrogram.

Luke knew that at the time of the Labyrinth.

Melo's expression, her companion's movements in response to the crisis, her end and... the harshness of retaliation afterwards tell their stance.

― ― Luke was able to deduce that they had 'no future'.

There is a real machine Albert.

Their attitude does not make it difficult to imagine that they are carrying any special circumstances.

In an environment like a terminal patient of, or at real risk of failure, otherwise... a plant human is miraculously logged in.

I've been thinking about playing in a different environment than these other players.

But Luke hasn't told his people.

I don't feel the need to tell.

Fufufu, you're pathetic. He's a crying kid who loses his friends. You could die in vain. They're such pathetic things. Shouldn't we have done more?

And when Tarler said that with a smile on his face,

"--Did they ask for it?

― ― For the first time, Luke spoke of a clear denial.

"Fight with care because we're in a miserable situation," they said...?

The words are mixed with clear anger.

It's not about being hunted down.

Taller's... words fooling Vito and the others.

You must have thought of me as an irrational disaster or evil. But they didn't give in to me or beg for my life. I've been doing everything I can to win. Without Marie-san, they would have been so defeated... they would have been strong enemies. "

That's why Luke didn't let go.

Even if they were driven to extinction without aftermath, they continued to fight for victory.

Even on this battlefield, he moved to surely defeat the key small, making his body a wall to accomplish the strategy, and sent Marie out with the expectation that she would be different from Hikaru.

Last time there was a more counter-attack than I expected, but even if I knew it would have been the same thing to do.

It's all to beat Igoronak the Immortal.

Because for Luke, they're...

─ For me, they are strong enemies until the end. It's not a poor thing. "

--Because they don't have a second to fight with their pathetic opponent.

They were desperate to protect their people. I made a mistake and regretted it, but I was trying to get the future we wanted without retreating.

That's why Luke will never turn his curse on them like he's been his own opponent.

Hmm. Did you notice? Then apologize. But what do we do? How do we defeat that?

Taller will not be pressured by Luke's seeping anger.

But I changed my expression a little and asked seriously.

How to defeat that invincible Special [Beldrion F].

…………

In response to Tarler's question, Luke... laughed at himself with a small smile.

Taller, you just called me a villain.

I told you.

Luke turned his heel back with the Taller.

Well then ─ ─ it's going to end like a villain.

◇ ◆

…………

Vito is not moved by Luke's approach.

Whether it's Melo's vengeance or not, I shredded it with Veldrion F mechanically.

Taller is floating next to Luke, but [Veldrion F] cannot drain while blocking interference from the outside world with Delvaster.

Vito herself is equipped with Charm Immunity accessories that she had prepared before the raid. As a precaution, I've also taken the [Healing Almighty Psychic].

Many of the other person's condition abnormalities are now OK.

If it is an attack, Veldrion F intercepts and prevents it, turning into a counterattack.

So the game is settled.

Unless Luke has a means of attack Vito can't prevent, he won't hit as soon as he can.

But that's impossible.

Marilyn and Audrey are wounded and unable to move, Liz's attack is already known, and Tarler's drain is inaccessible.

Whether the Hidden Babylon uses some form of attack or not, he will be able to prevent it with [Veldrion F] as described earlier.

And even if you're hiding, you'll know when you get closer.

We don't have time to merge in Union Jack.

Luke no longer has any means of attacking... that Vito can't prevent.

Even if it did, Luke would be stabbed in the last blow.

Therefore, Vito tried not to intercept Luke, who was approaching him, with the coolness of the machine.

Whatever happens, don't shake it, it's the moment...

"Uh-huh...!

--I 'm shaking my voice.

Only the voice of the girl I loved, who let me die, who couldn't protect me.

I could never... ignore it.

"Me....!

A sinking heart rises, and he looks back with little hope.

Like Orpheus, who tried to bring the dead back, saw the light on the ground.

- But she wasn't there.

"I'm sorry."

--There was only a lewd man who apologized with her voice.

Babi, who was supposed to have disappeared and been hiding, danced back and spoke in a voice that wasn't hers.

Vito's blanked thoughts in this situation temporarily stopped the movement of [Veldrion F],

"- Check"

― ― The thin Luke slashed both arms fitted with Igoronac body.

Acceleration beyond the limits of physical strength causes bone soreness, crushing of the internal organs, and zero blood from the mouth.

But that's why he reaches Vito.

One hand that does not activate Brooch , but stops Veldrion F from moving.

――――

[Beldrion F], who lost his controller, flies crazy as he leaps through the ground and trees.

Eventually, the Delvaster itself was unlocked... and fell to the ground.

Then Tarler approached [Beldrion F], who lost his protection, and devoured the remaining magic to the roots.

So... the decisive weapon of early civilization has once again become an unspeakable piece of junk.

…………

…………

So they face each other.

One is kneeling, losing both arms and looking up.

One stands, loses his left arm and looks down.

But what was the psychological upside down?

The winning boy... had a slight chance of winning with a mean means.

Only by using the other person's friendship...

"... tell me one thing."

A loser with a burning expression throws words at the winner.

The total annihilation of allies and the manipulation of the whole body and spirit, the reboot of the mind by mellow and misunderstood voices, and the impact of defeat.

Repeated mental exhaustion temporarily extinguished a burning vengeance.

It is difficult to move the body [bleeding], and the MP remaining in the approaching Taller may also have some effect.

"Go ahead."

"Why did you... know how to call him?"

That's what turned him around... the biggest cause of defeat.

With her voice, she was called in a way that only her friends should know... so I had to focus.

Even in the First World War, Vito was never called.

"... I thought about it."

For Luke, it was a two-choice (...).

I remembered the voice of the girl in the Labyrinth, and I was also preparing a Vocal Cord Copy that Babi won in Drain Learning to use in a chase.

His name is Vito, as can be seen from the Signage.

The pronunciation of the name was also read by the girl's habit of suppression.

I also know in the Gravemark Labyrinth that he was keen on the girl.

I also heard a girl imitating her voice calling out to her friends just before she died in that tombstone labyrinth.

So we have two choices.

Either that girl calls him "Little Pooh" or "Little Pooh".

By mistake, I'm sure I can't pull him back into people's minds when he falls into machine thinking.

And he thought, and let him call it "the potato kun."

This is the right answer... but Luke's reasoning is wrong.

Among his friends, Mero called him "Kun."

Because I didn't like it a little and it was a little special.

But that's why... Vito turned around, entrusting the call with all her hopes.

I held my hopes in the light I saw.

As a person, not as an evil god without eyes (Igoronak).

"Shit... The more you vomit, the more you turn your head."

With mixed words of praise and curse, Vito threw bloody spit on the ground.

"Can I ask you something?

"... I don't know much about the imperial operation."

"No, it's about you. Are you going to die, are you betting, or can't you go back? Which of these situations are you in?

"You...."

You don't know that much? Vito lost her words with a stunned expression.

But for a moment... Vito answered Luke's question.

"... number three. We're asleep."

Because I was the last one.

Because there is no one to protect anymore, and there is no need to hide weaknesses.

So I revealed my secrets with a little self-immolation.

"Then there will be hope."

But Luke returned with a smile.

"What...?

"I think you can trust the anomaly of this world in that way."

Luke did not console, but thought so from the bottom of his heart.

Because it is a world full of mysteries that his father was asked to do.

The degree of anomaly that attracts sleeping people is obvious.

"So you and your people can log in again after the war."

…………

Vito understood Luke's words to be genuine.

To borrow his words, Luke, the "Outer Path of the Head," really thinks so.

There... I just had a little hope.

"I see....... thank you for coming home."

"Yes, if it's not a nuisance to the surroundings, I'll take it."

The battle between Death Period and the “Immortal” Igoronac, which became a total battle to cut off each other's members, was temporarily closed here, leaving behind cause and evil roots.

─ ─ Capture Target Function Stopped

----And the next curtain rises.

The consternation belongs to Luke and Vito.

How long has that been going on?

A man who was neither Luke nor Vito stood beside the deactivated [Beldrion F].

A strange and abrupt appearance, as if the page had been rolled up.

A feeling of foreign matter mixed in by a character from another scene.

There are no signs... but there is a contradiction that feels the power of fear.

Luuku!? Sole (...)! "

In a warning from Taller, Luke recalls her words during the battle.

--I 've been watched. It was a sign of gaze and fierceness that I didn't feel in the Labyrinth.

Luke immediately understood that Sole was the opponent in front of him.

All the old and young men and women are unknown.

Hide your whole body in a hooded jacket and don't even know if it's Master or Tian because your left hand isn't even exposed.

There is no "sign", and the details of the equipment cannot be found in the "expert eye".

Mysterious intruder who knows nothing.

But there was only one distinctive thing.

That's... the face you see in the hood.

The color was covered in a mask (machine mask).

■ Border zones and isolation facilities

Reinhardt, I need to ask you something.

"What is it, uncle?"

"Why did you deposit a weapon of war for early civilization with Igoronak, the Immortal? That's the equivalent of the manoeuvre I fought with the Culcheratans. Though it can be operated, it won't be something you can't trust to keep with Master."

[King of the Beast] The stronger the bond with Claudia and the others, anyway, Igoronak of "immortality” will be affiliated from the free and the day will be shallow.

Not to mention the fact that the situation was close to intimidation in the middle of the year, and the way they operated in this Tri Flags was never likeable.

The Decisive Weapon is too expensive to keep with such a opponent.

You can even say it's dangerous.

"Oh, that's fine. They're fishing bait."

"... fishing bait?

"Yes, first, a bait to catch a kingdom that knows how dangerous it is."

Show a tag called Small and guide the Kingdom's power to drain it.

Then defeat the Kingdom's power in the pursuit battle with Murdoch, one of the Imperial's most powerful.

Depending on what he does, the arrangement is such that anyone in the Kingdom < Super > can be defeated.

However, as Short-Term Defeaters cannot fight for long periods of time, they need to drop Super in a single fight.

In fact, he's destroying Alberto, which is the expected result of Reinhardt.

But... there is one more destiny.

"and bait for those who are caught by the [Veldrion F] that I deposited."

"... the one who gets caught?

"We understand the value, and when we're done, we'll feed on the forces that move to secure it."

The last role that Reinhardt wanted them to play was not an empire or a kingdom in this war… The explosion of the forces that drove Reinhardt's assumptions mad.

What is this faction...?

"Claudia heard from Behemot that in the story of the Archer of Magic Bullets... the last bullet is left to the demon who gave it to him."

I've heard so many stories about Behemot on Earth.

Among other things, it is the end of a story that is suitable for this purpose (...).

"Well, I was awarded Verdrion F Magic Bullet by the early civilization (Demon)."

…………

I wonder who's gonna show up after the shooting.
