"I will never admit defeat, Ai-chan!"
"I see."
Hearing Lucifer's call, Logos instantly understood what he meant and drew a golden spell with the bone pen in his hand.
"I command the wings to lift the weight."
As the banshee's spell began to take effect, the giant beast's skeleton, which was gradually slowing down, was pushed forward little by little, but this still could not avoid their impending crash.
At the same time, a huge amount of blood flowed along Lucifer's red sword from the spine to every part of the giant beast's skeleton, constantly reinforcing the skeleton and the gaps in space to resist the impact of the forced landing.
Seeing that the skeleton of the giant beast was about to have an intimate friction with the ground, Lucifer seemed to hear the song of a plane crash in his ears.
“See You Again, Family.”

Chapter 174: This is what dull eyes look like.
Rumbling--
A loud noise like thunder resounded through the sky in a canyon near Londinium, but the Sarkaz and Duke's fleet surrounding Londinium only thought it was the second impact of the Shard and did not take it too seriously.
Only Lucifer and the Doctor and the others knew what they had just experienced.
Is it scary?
Yes, it's scary.
"What? I stopped pretty well."
Fortunately, with the cushioning of Logos and the reinforcement of Lucifer's flesh and blood, the skeleton of the giant beast that made an emergency landing in the canyon did not fall apart on the spot. Amiya and the others were all safe and sound except for the Doctor who was shaken.
"It was such a satisfying plane crash. I will probably never forget it for the rest of my life... Ugh..."
The doctor knelt weakly beside the spine of the giant beast's skeleton and couldn't help vomiting all the fried rice he had eaten last night.
Amiya kept patting the doctor's back to help relieve his nausea.
Kal'tsit and others checked the area around the giant beast's skeleton to make sure no one was ambushing them.
"We're safe, for now."
After Ascalon and Ines returned from patrol, Kal'tsit turned to look at Lucifer who seemed to be in a daze.
"Prince Lucifer, can you still reawaken the skeleton of this great beast?"
Lucifer did not answer Kal'tsit's question immediately, but stared into the distance silently until he became more and more certain of his guess.
"——I can't do that. The link is being disrupted by the Originium disaster, and the signal is not connected."
As we all know, natural disasters cannot stop behemoths. How can an ordinary natural disaster be able to keep out the time behemoths?
And it wasn't just the time beast; the doctor's radio contact with the outside world was also ruthlessly cut off.
"...It seems that the Blood Demon Lord and the Absolution Master helped Tracys find the "Source Stone"..."
Upon hearing this, W, the anti-Riddler vanguard, couldn't help but give Kal'tsit a sharp criticism.
"Old woman, you might as well make your words clearer."
"...Anana, the original source stone, the original suffering of this land."
"...I thought it was a fairy tale made up by Hedley. I rely on this thing to help me sleep."
"..."
Unlike W, whose face was filled with innocence, Lucifer and Logos couldn't help but be thoughtful.
As professional players in the royal court, they knew very well that those modified legends were all based on the true shadow of history.
"The few good news is that Anana has not yet completely descended. We still have a glimmer of hope."
"So what do we do now? Go to the Shard and defuse the bomb?"
"Wrong, Anana is not necessarily in the Shard. We don't know its exact location."
"Then you say you..."
W was about to start slandering Kal'tsit but was interrupted by Lucifer.
"It doesn't matter. I know where it is."
After saying that, Kal'tsit, Amiya and the others looked at him in surprise, wondering how Lucifer did it.
Under the puzzled gazes of the crowd, Lucifer, guided by the spirit of Kazdel, slowly said:
"No need to say more, the blood of Tikaz will guide me."
Lucifer could feel the blood of Tikaz beating in his veins, constantly resonating with Anan's excitement.
As soon as the words fell, Logos' eyes widened in surprise.
"The blood of Tikaz? Dukare passed it on to you? When...?"
Even Kal'tsit looked surprised.
The only drop of pure blood that would not be contaminated circulated in the Blood King's Court for countless years, but finally fell into Lucifer's hands. It is hard to imagine how high the purity of Lucifer is in the eyes of the Blood Demon Lord.
"The original curse... It seems that the task of finding Anana is yours."
"Then let the teacher lead the way, and we will follow along..."
Before Askalon finished speaking, Lucifer's voice of objection was heard first.
"No, Ascalon, you, you and Ai, neither of you can go."
"What……?"
Looking at the Great Wilderness Prisoner Finger pointed at by Lucifer, Askalon and Logos were very confused.
It was the first time they saw Lucifer refuse so forcefully.
"Lucifer, what does this mean?"
"Before the plane crashed, I saw that there were basically clusters of Originium crystals below. There might be a second or third impact, so I don't allow you to go."
Lucifer said without letting anyone refuse.
Although Ascalon and Logos have been infected with oripathy, they are not blood demons and scavengers after all. If they stay in a place with too high a concentration of Originium for too long, even Kal'tsit cannot guarantee that they will not suddenly develop a serious illness and aggravate their own infection.
"..."
Lucifer's answer left Logos and the others speechless for a moment.
Askalon stood there silently, feeling a little weird inside.
Lucifer cares about her!
He has me in his heart!
Just as Logos was about to argue with Lucifer, Lucifer spoke again.
"I'll go solo. You guys stay here and protect the doctor first. Then try to restore communication and call for help."
Listening to Lucifer, who had taken the initiative, giving them orders one by one, Logos and Kal'tsit had no intention of refutation.
There is no doubt that Lucifer, who possesses the blood of Tikaz and is not affected by Originium, is the most suitable candidate to defend Anana alone.
Although it is not known whether the Blood Demon Lord who gave the Blood of Tikaz to Lucifer voluntarily or was forced to do so, Lucifer has proven that he has the ability and qualifications no matter what.
Besides, even if Manfred won't chase them again, other Sarkaz may still come to take back the giant skeleton, so they need to leave people to guard here.
"Why do I feel like he is the commander of this operation? Isn't that right? Old women don't talk back."
W, who was standing at the edge of the crowd, complained quietly, and Hedley beside him echoed:
"Although, Senior Lucifer may be the most suitable person among us."
"Just because he told you some little-known facts about the Sarkaz, you started speaking for him?"
"Strictly speaking, what Senior Lucifer said carries more weight. If the blood of Tikaz they mentioned is the legend recorded in the story, then there is almost no difference between Senior Lucifer and the master of the Bloody Court."
"Oh……"
W then showed an expression of great wisdom and foolishness, which made Hedley feel very relieved.
It would be great if she could understand what I mean.
"What is the Royal Court?"
"..."
Looking at W's dull eyes, Hedley's eyes went dark.
"After everything is settled, I really need to help you catch up on your cultural studies, W."
"Haha, if I volunteer to take your class, I'll eat it straight away."
175
Chapter 175 Lucifer is on the move.
boom! boom! boom!
Outside the city of Londinium, naval guns roared, flames of war spread across the sky, and death shrouded the earth.
As the crystal barrier built by the Scavengers with Originium was blasted by the Duke of Wellington's naval guns, a crack larger than a mountain was created, and the high-speed warships led by the Duke of Wellington quickly poured in and directly attacked the Sarkaz and Scavenger armies.
"General, our troops and Deep Pool have already engaged the Sarkaz. Should we continue to advance?"
"What about the other dukes' fleets?"
"Although we have stretched the battle line a bit, their warships are right behind us and will catch up with us in no time."
"Then go full speed ahead and bring the battleship over to me."
The Duke of Wellington stood on the deck and answered the officers word by word.
"Yes!"
The officer saluted the Duke of Wellington, and then followed the Duke of Wellington's orders strictly in a disciplined manner, without any hesitation or questioning, just treating it as part of the plan.
At the same time, the Deep Pool led by Abrana was fighting the Sarkaz fiercely, and the shadow of death and decay almost covered the entire battlefield.
