I'm a villain, not a devil

Chapter 294 Lies and Truth, Sean advances to Crimson!

"Try this."

Several dark green snake tails stretched out from behind the snake king, and they lashed out at the same time, so fast that the human eye could not keep up.

Sean was hit with almost no reaction. The blood ball wrapped around him began to tremble violently, and he, who was in the center of the blood ball, also spat out a mouthful of blood.

"I told you, there is no real fusion. You only have a crimson shell now. It's too weak, too weak!"

The snake's tail almost pierced through the air. Because of its high speed, there was even a bursting sound in the surrounding air. Even the poison that was deeply entangled in it was temporarily forced away from the area!

The blood ball was hit and retreated again. With a loud bang, the huge building collapsed.

The snake's tail followed, lifted up the entire ruins, and continued to attack Sean frantically.

"No wonder, no wonder Bai Youming thinks so highly of you, a person from another family can also become the Crown Prince...ha."

There was admiration in the snake king's eyes.

His snake tail was constantly attacking, and his head had turned into something resembling a snake man's.

"To advance from the peak of King level to Crimson level, we need to break through our own limits. If we can't break through with human power, we can only rely on the characteristics of the Mad Beast."

"By fusing blood, we are taking advantage of the limit factors that humans cannot reach. Unfortunately, the huge power of the Crimson Madness Beast cannot be used by us. It can only gradually dissipate in this world after fusion."

"You actually briefly mastered this power? Genius, this is the first time I've seen one. Your talent even makes me feel a little sorry - you may even reach the level of Bai Youming in the future!"

"But with only pure power and no control, you're like the oldest steam train...too slow, Sean!"

The blood cells had begun to tremble uncontrollably.

This is the first time I’ve come face to face with the genuine crimson middle class.

The first time was when he faced the old man brought by Viscount Rhodes. That man fell into Sean's trap, and because he was too old, his physical skills had reached their limits.

The second time was when he faced Gan Hu, the leader of the plunderers. Unfortunately, the opponent used special proliferation to reach the middle level of crimson. Even after using other means to reach the upper level of crimson, he was still weak and powerless.

Just by intuition, Sean could sense that the snake king in front of him was much more powerful than those two people!

Even at the same level of strength, the differences between individuals are terrifying...

To make matters worse, Sean did not make the cut for the Crimson.

He is still stuck at the node between king level and crimson.

His two most powerful abilities, the Villain Reporter and the Deceitful Heart, plus the Weeping Power that had just been fused into his body.

Just like a butterfly trying to break out of its cocoon, if it succeeds it can spread its wings and fly, but if it fails it will never be able to break through that boundary and will be trapped in the solid cocoon.

All this is due to the special nature of Apat.

Apat's voice rang in Sean's mind. Compared to before, her voice was much calmer, and even contained a hint of regret.

"Sean, I have nothing to hide from you... I told you that even if I volunteer to die and merge with you, you need to make room for me. Otherwise, we will never be able to truly merge."

Sean did not reply, but simply blocked all the strength he could use now in front to deal with the snake king's seemingly simple but actually eroding blood cells with the snake's tail blow.

Apat's voice was filled with a hint of charm: "Before, you gave all the power you gathered from killing the swarm to Moza, right? I thought you were using some ritual I didn't know... but I have sensed it."

"Moza's power has been restrained. He has been restricted and can't even use his supernatural powers properly... He should have some magical abilities. Are you afraid that he will... run away?"

Sean's somewhat irritable voice sounded: "Shut up!"

Apate did not stop, her voice kept echoing in Sean's mind: "Hypocrisy! Sean, I thought you were a very honest person..."

Her laughter became increasingly shrill.

"You've clearly made the decision, you're clearly ready to let Moza die...but at the most critical moment, you hesitated?"

Sean pursed his lips tightly.

"Didn't you realize? If Moza doesn't die, I can't really enter your heart, and we can't really be together!"

Her voice was full of regret and pity: "You were too hesitant, too hesitant..."

The blood cells were trembling violently, and the snake king's attacks became more and more fierce.

Sean interrupted Apat angrily: "Shut up! If I die, you will die too!"

Apate's voice was nonchalant: "Correction, I'm dead now."

Sean said angrily: "What's the meaning of the so-called important position? Even if Moza died, I would not trust you immediately. And if he is not dead, as long as you are sincere enough, I will believe in your power sooner or later."

"No, it's different..." Apate laughed, "Only when enough important people die can I 'occupy' that position."

Sean spat out a mouthful of blood: "Is that just what you want to do, or is it something you have to do?! Who knows if you are lying to me?!"

"Both... I've told you since the first time we met that you can sense it yourself. Our abilities don't work on each other. My lies can't come true, and your deceptions don't work on me... What are you waiting for?"

The snake's tail lashed out again, and the snake king's hideous laugh became more and more shrill.

The people outside wanted to come over to help, but the old nanny happened to be a control-type veto. With the cooperation of Cheryl, the seriously injured Ake still suppressed the opponent, but he couldn't get away.

The blood cells are becoming increasingly unstable.

Apate's voice sounded again: "You must have a vague intuition about how wonderful my power is..."

"I think you were able to find me because you learned about it from the human who forced me into the poison city, right?"

"Then has anyone told you that when that man was chasing me, I was at the lower level of Crimson, and he was only one step away from reaching the middle level of Crimson... The snake in front of me is indeed quite powerful, but compared to that man, he is still far behind."

Sean sneered: "You are just being hunted down to this point."

"I don't deny it... But what if I tell you... I have never been affected by the Poison City, and I am now... a mid-level Crimson?"

As he spoke, a dazzling light burst out from the blood ball, and an invisible wave spread out, forcing the Snake King to retreat dozens of meters, and a circular area was cleared around it.

The snake king's pupils shrank for a moment, and after a moment he laughed again: "You squeezed out the remaining power of the crazy beast again? You are really a genius, but this will only delay your death for a while."

"What a noisy human..." Apat's contemptuous voice sounded.

She spoke to Sean again: "The barrier between the Crimsons is more exaggerated than you can imagine... As long as the two of us are completely integrated, there will be absolutely no problem in leaving safely, not to mention killing him... In fact, if you think you are strong enough, you can try our new ability and let this clamoring idiot know what the power of the origin is."

"What you are going to do is too simple..."

Sean subconsciously looked towards the ruins in the distance, where the seriously injured Moza was lying.

Apate's voice sounded at the right time: "You have obviously restricted him. Don't be a hypocritical person... Besides, your friend... no, your brother. The relationship between the two of you is really good... Ha, he has already noticed it, right?"

"Moza noticed all this, but he said nothing and continued to watch over you... Isn't his meaning obvious?"

Sean's breathing became more and more rapid, and a hint of blood red was slowly climbing up to the center of his lake blue eyes.

Apate sighed softly: "You don't even have to bear the infamy of killing your brother... We just need to change our position, quietly and quietly, so that no one can notice and no one can blame you."

"The snake is attacking you. You have nowhere to hide. You can only keep moving...and by chance, your poor brother is right in your path..."

"This damn snake had no intention of leaving any alive... Poor Moza, unfortunately, was affected and lost his young life..."

Apate's voice became excited: "And you, because of your brother's death, broke through the limit, and all this is natural!"

"You will avenge Moza! The Snake King is just a hurdle on your road to revenge!"

"I will become the sharpest knife in your hand. We will truly fuse three original-level powers. This world will be ours... no, it will be yours."

Sean's chest was heaving violently, and his fists, which were usually firmly clenched together, began to tremble uncontrollably.

"Do not……"

As soon as Sean uttered a word, Apate interrupted him immediately: "No? If you die, will Moza live? Not only Moza, but everyone else will die... It's just a simple calculation. How can a person who is a villain and a fraud hesitate on such a thing? Sean, don't make me think that I have misjudged you..."

Sean held his head and yelled, "Shut up!"

Apate was silent.

The snake king is attacking more and more fiercely.

Then, Apat sighed softly: "Then let me help you..."

The blood ball suddenly paused, and the snake king's eyes suddenly lit up. He stood up tall, and his whole body turned into the appearance of a snake man.

"what--"

He opened his mouth wide, his tongue dancing, and a sharp green light spurted out of his mouth!

The blood cells fluctuated violently, and the green light became stronger and stronger.

With an inaudible shattering sound, a large hole melted in the center of the blood ball.

The green light shot straight in, pointing directly at Sean's heart.

Then, a figure broke through the protection on the side of the blood ball and stood in front of Sean.

The green light sank in, and the dark green and red illuminated Moza's face.

“Brother…you are really…too ignorant…” Moza stretched out a hand, as if trying to grab Sean.

Sean froze in place, and he stretched out his hand tremblingly.

"what……"

Moza gave one last smile, then let his arms fall limply.

he died.

The air seemed to be stagnant.

The snake king spat out his tongue: "Ha, interesting."

Then, the green light shines again!

Sean entered a bizarre world, surrounded by colorful lights, and he stood on a white floor.

In the front was a nine-tailed fox with a human face and a snow-white body, with ghost masks of various colors at the end of its tail. She was wrapped in crimson mist.

Sean clenched his fists, his eyes red: "It's you..."

Apate said as a matter of course: "Of course it's me, otherwise how would he, who is seriously injured, have the strength to rush out and break through the blood barrier?"

Sean stared at her intently.

Apate just raised his paw and licked it: "So, do you want to accept this fact?"

Sean was silent.

After a long time, he raised his cold face and said, "Merge with me."

"A wise choice." Apat chuckled.

The distance between the man and the fox was shortened in an instant.

Sean opened his arms and let the fox shrink and drill into his heart.

Until, he felt something break inside him.

Sean, advance to Crimson.

The bizarre world was quickly fading away, and a smile finally appeared on Sean's cold face.

"The fox of lies, the source of deception..."

Apat's voice resounded in the space, and this time, it was indescribable shock.

"How is this possible...How is this possible!?"

Sean stretched out his hand and turned it gracefully: "Lies and deception never require any ability... You thought you were the only one who knew, but, sorry."

Apate was silent.

"Now, Apat, serve me."

"...Yes, Master."

……

When I opened my eyes again, I saw the green light so close.

Sean's eyes turned red, and the blood cells around him suddenly expanded and contracted, returning to his body.

The green light was easily dispersed.

The Snake King's smile froze on his face: "Advanced... How is it possible..."

He then said viciously: "It's just the lower layer of crimson..."

Before he finished speaking, he felt the scene around him change. The poisonous city disappeared, and was replaced by a burning city.

In the raging flames, a fire dragon slowly turned its head and looked at him.

"It's just an illusion!"

The snake king roared and attacked, but the fire really came.

……

In reality, Sean calmly looked at the Snake King, who was attacking madly on the spot, and his body was burning itself in an evil way.

Glancing at Moza's body, Sean raised an invisible smile at the corner of his mouth.

He waved his hands like an elegant conductor.

On the periphery, Cheryl and others who were fighting to the death suddenly sensed a strange fluctuation. Then, they saw that the people who had been fighting them madly before were actually fighting with the air. Inexplicable wounds appeared on their bodies inexplicably, as if an invisible creature was attacking them.

"This is..." Ake and Cheryl looked at each other.

Cheryl's eyes lit up: "Brother has advanced!"

He turned and ran: "Take care of them, Captain Ake, I'll go take a look!"

"it is good!"

……

"Big brother!"

"Cheryl, don't come close. This guy is a mid-level Crimson after all. I'm not familiar with my abilities. He should be able to break free later." Sean shouted.

Cheryl nodded and then saw Moza's body.

His eyes lit up and he trotted over.

In the center of the field, the snake king's body began to completely transform into a huge dark green python.

"Crazy beast transformation..." Sean's eyes became more serious, and then he sneered, "Then try this."

The huge python finally broke through the illusion, and then the snake king, with only a trace of sanity left, saw the real fire dragon appear before his eyes.

"How... is it possible..." A difficult voice sounded.

When Ake and the others had dealt with everything and arrived at the scene, they only saw the huge python collapsed to the ground and Sean who was calm.

"Your Highness..." Ak smiled, but suddenly his expression changed, "Be careful!"

Just as Sean raised his head, a small snake as thick as a finger jumped out from the fallen giant python and pierced Sean's heart at an incomprehensible speed!

"Pfft."

It was like a sound gnawing at the soul.

Sean looked down blankly and saw the dense teeth marks on his chest. Then, his body fell down stiffly.

The little snake scurried into the ruins and disappeared in an instant.

"Big brother!"

"His Royal Highness!"

……

Bai Youming, who was killing people, suddenly stopped, then stood up in shock and looked into the distance.

"Your Highness?"

"……go back!"

……

"what……"
