Chapter 41: I want to go with Amelia
Superman's father didn't answer Lilith's question. His gaze swept over Lilith's head, glanced at Amelia standing on a stool in the kitchen preparing ingredients, then returned to his own, calmly speaking:
"Can we go inside and talk?"
Lilith hesitated for a second, but still stepped aside to make way for them:
"Please come in."
Superman's dad nodded slightly and went into the room. Lilith, holding her personal terminal with the camera always pointed at Superman's dad, followed him.
"So what brings you here?" After the two entered the living room, Lilith casually found a chair and sat down.
Superman's dad stood upright in the living room. Although he didn't say anything, his silent gaze was fixed on Lilith, as if to tell her that things were not simple.
Lilith shrank back, naturally noticing this. She switched the live stream on her personal terminal to the front-facing camera, said "Sorry" to the viewers, and then wisely turned off the live stream.
Superman's father then spoke:
"This matter is too complicated. In short, the behemoths come from the underground world. We have found the passage connecting the surface world to the underground world. As long as we seal it, humanity will no longer have to be huddled in megacities."
However, the passage is located in the Mariana Trench, and very few League of Legends members can fight there, so…”
At this point, Superman's dad paused, then looked at Amelia, who was in the kitchen placing the cleaned carp into the steamer:
"We need Amelia; her combat prowess is sufficient to assist our operations in the Mariana Trench."
He sighed, his face showing reluctance, and his tone sincere:
"I know this request is sudden, but we really have no other choice. Please lend us Amelia."
Upon hearing this, the living room fell silent. Superman's father remained silent, as did Lilith. Only the sounds of steam and stirring from the kitchen filled the air.
As the executioner dragon, Amelia's keen senses easily picked up on Superman's words, but she made no comment. She simply put the chopped garlic, crushed peanuts, and other seasonings in a bowl and poured boiling hot oil over them.
Suddenly, a crackling sound rang out, followed by a complex aroma of various spices wafting from the kitchen and filling Lilith's nostrils.
Lilith sniffed the aroma and began to anticipate the dinner Amelia had prepared for her, but now was clearly not the time to think about that.
The Mariana Trench, giant monsters, the underground world, and Superman's dad personally requesting help—any two of these pieces of information alone would be enough to cause a sensation across the entire internet.
This is not a simple mission, but a mission concerning the survival of humanity. If we fail, humanity will completely lose the power to resist the behemoths, and will eventually perish.
But the more this is the case, the more it signifies that if this mission succeeds, the heroes who participated in this operation will inevitably receive immense admiration, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that they will be remembered in history.
Save all of humanity...
If Amelia participates in the operation, people will go crazy worshipping her afterwards, and Lilith, as a summoner, will also benefit from it. But that would be too much of a distraction.
But what if Lilith also went to the Mariana Trench to carry out a mission?
Lilith's eyes lit up for a moment, then she suppressed them. She tried to appear calm and spoke softly:
"I can agree to that."
Upon hearing this, Superman's father nodded slightly and was about to thank him when Lilith raised a finger, interrupting him:
"But I have one condition."
Superman Daddy:
"Please speak."
Lilith:
"I want to go too."
Upon hearing this, Superman's father's expression froze, his brows furrowed slightly, and he almost instinctively shook his head.
"No, the Mariana Trench is eleven kilometers deep. The water pressure there can flatten steel instantly. Even the most advanced submarines cannot reach there."
Even S-class heroes cannot survive there in most situations. As a summoner, your combat power relies entirely on your familiars, and your true form is no different from an ordinary person.
If I were to send you on a mission, it would be tantamount to suicide; I cannot allow you to take that risk.
He refused decisively, leaving no room for negotiation, but Lilith smiled.
What Superman's father said about Lilith's true form having no combat power is complete nonsense. Her true form's combat power is many, many times stronger than Amelia's. The claim that her true form has no combat power is just a disguise to avoid wearing the bodysuit.
However, this disguise became an obstacle for Lilith to participate in the mission. In order to participate in this mission that was destined to go down in history, Lilith temporarily patched herself up:
"You're right, I do lack combat ability, but..."
He turned around, walked towards Amelia who was cooking, raised his hand and slapped her on the bottom, then continued amidst Amelia's muffled groan of shame and indignation:
"My relationship with Amelia is deeper than you think. When I am with Amelia, I will share her defense. No matter what kind of injury I suffer, as long as Amelia can bear it, I will be fine."
Besides, as long as I'm alright, I can ensure Amelia remains at her peak condition. If she unfortunately sacrifices herself, I can immediately summon her again to make up for the loss of combat power.
Upon hearing this, Superman's father looked extremely puzzled. Although he wanted to believe Lilith, the information was too exaggerated and hard to believe.
Lilith naturally took this into consideration, so she let Amelia go, picked up a kitchen knife from the knife rack, and slashed her left arm without saying a word.
"you……!"
Seeing Lilith altering the knife right in front of him, Daddy Superman shouted out, about to reprimand Lilith for her behavior, but he froze when he saw Lilith's left arm.
No blood flowed from where the blade had cut; there wasn't even a white mark, let alone a wound.
"See that?"
Lilith casually tossed the cleaver onto the knife rack, where it flew through the air in a perfect arc before landing precisely on the rack.
Lilith laughed:
"I am safe as long as I am with Amelia. If we are separated, she cannot exert her strongest fighting power. So if you want Amelia to participate in the mission, you must take me with you."
Superman's dad was silent for a few seconds. He stared at the non-existent wound on Lilith's arm for a long time, then looked at Amelia beside him.
By this time, the carp in the steamer was almost cooked. Amelia lifted the lid, spread the prepared sauce evenly over the carp, and then put the lid back on to continue steaming...
Superman's father looked at Lilith again, and on the face of this newly debuted hero, he saw an undisguised desire—a desire to make a name for himself in history.
He had seen this desire not only on Lilith's face, but also on the faces of many heroes, and behind this expression lay a determination to sacrifice oneself.
"Are you sure you want to come along? Even at the risk of death," Superman asked one last time.
"I'm sure."
Lilith nodded, while Amelia behind her remained silent. Once the fish was cooked, she lifted the lid, and a fragrant aroma immediately wafted out...
