Crossover Anime: Offering Myself as a Sacrifice to the Sword? I Choose to Be the Great Demon King

But to everyone's surprise, Osmandis stood up, holding his scepter, and pointed at Mo Li, saying:

"Well said! In that case, get out of my sight. Those who don't want to submit to me have no place here. When you're rotting underground, you'll regret your stupidity!"

"But... it would be a disgrace to let you die so meaninglessly. Remember how generous I am, and let the Casters there serve as your guards!"

Everyone turned their attention to the female servant standing next to Nitocris, who was dressed in white monk's robes, wearing a monk's hat, and holding a tin staff.

Caster looked surprised when Osmandis pointed at her; she had only come to watch the show.

"Hmm... alright then! This unexpected encounter is a karmic connection from our past lives. Pharaoh, thank you for taking care of me!"

Mo Li looked Caster up and down, and felt a strange sense of familiarity.

Could this guy be that eminent Tang Dynasty monk who went on his pilgrimage to the West?

"Tang Sanzang?"

"Hmm... Do you know my real name? Could it be someone Goku and the others know? I don't think so."

Sanzang circled around Mo Li a few times, nodding occasionally, which made him feel slightly displeased.

However, judging from his spiritual origin, Sanzang is undoubtedly top-tier.

Since they were there to help, Mo Li could only turn a blind eye.

"Although Wukong, Wuneng, Wujing, and the White Dragon are not here, and we cannot hear the Bodhisattva's voice, that is another matter. I am a high-ranking young monk, Xuanzang, who will one day become a Buddha!"

Although this Sanzang is not quite the same as the Sanzang in Mo Li's memory, it should be the same person.

"Welcome to the team, Master Sanzang!"

"Ah—Ooh!"

A cute cry escaped from Sanzang's lips, his face beaming with ecstasy.

"Thank you, Mo Li. I like you so much. Please become my apprentice!"

Mo Li's lips twitched a few times. Although he admired his senior brother very much, he still couldn't get past the mental hurdle of asking him to be Sanzang's disciple.

"Forget it, I have someone really good. Look, it's her. She's a great hero who saved humanity. She'll definitely be fine as your apprentice!"

"Eh? Wait, wait a minute, Senior Mo Li..."

"Better to die than to die myself," Mo Li betrayed Gudako without hesitation, dragging her to Sanzang's presence.

Gudako waved her hands repeatedly, but she couldn't persuade Mo Li otherwise, and looked like she was about to cry.

"Alright, stop fooling around. We have important things to do. Let's go!"

In the end, it was Leonardo da Vinci who stepped in to help Gudako out of the predicament.

Recalling what Nitocris had said yesterday, Mo Li let go of her hand and returned to the group.

"Sun King, I look forward to seeing you again!"

After saying this to Osmandis, Mo Li walked out of the temple without looking back.

Gudako, Bedivere, Sanzo, Mash, and others followed closely behind.

"Mo Li, I will not show leniency a second time. Let me see your determination to fight the Lion King!"

As Mo Li's figure gradually disappeared from sight, Osmandis sat back on his throne.

Nitocris stepped forward, bowed, and asked hesitantly:

"Is this really okay?"

"Hmph, if it's that person, they might actually be able to defeat the Lion King!"

Chapter 466 Voting, the Animosity Between Mo Li and Gudako

After leaving the Composite Temple, Mo Li and his group once again entered the vast desert.

"Is the mountainous region Nitocris mentioned in the north?"

"Yes, it is said that the area is ruled by the Old Man of the Mountain. We absolutely cannot afford to make any mistakes this time."

Gudako clenched her fists; this might be their last chance.

After one setback after another, even the cheerful Gudako couldn't help but feel disappointed.

"Fu, Fu-woo!"

Fou climbed all the way to Gudako's shoulder and kept licking Gudako's face with her little tongue.

Mo Li looked at Fufu with great interest; the Fourth Beast, Cathy Palug, was the familiar of the great magician Merlin.

Fufu seemed to sense Mo Li's sharp gaze, her fur standing on end, and she hid behind Gudako like a kitten, peeking out her little head.

I don't know how long I spent grinding for the four-star crystal Fou back then.

Just as everyone was preparing to set off, a childish voice suddenly came from behind them.

"Hey! Wait for us!"

The refugees rescued from the holy city gradually appeared at the edge of the desert and slowly walked towards them.

The one who stopped everyone was the child of the woman who had been killed by the Knights of Justice.

Gudako, looking utterly surprised, quickly stepped forward and asked:

"Everyone...why...?"

“Our people were slaughtered, and your feelings towards the Lion King are the same as ours, so…”

"Wait a minute, you guys don't actually want to come with us, do you?!"

Mo Li reached out to stop them from continuing. He didn't want to be a guardian anymore. More importantly, the addition of this group would undoubtedly make the journey extremely difficult.

If possible, Mo Li would rather they stay here and not go with them.

"Yes, we also want to lend you our assistance!"

"If you really want to help, then stay here. We don't know how far this journey will take us, and the road is extremely dangerous. We already have few combat personnel, and now we'll have to divide our attention to protect you..."

Mo Li's words were like a biting cold wind; though they struck a nerve, they were not without reason.

They also understood that the people in front of them were not on the same level as them at all.

"By the way, you're going to the mountains to the north, right? I know the way there, I can show you the way!"

Lu Shide racked his brains, trying his best to help Gudako.

However, Mo Li quickly rejected his idea. With the Narrative Manual as his guide, he didn't need anyone else to lead the way.

"There's no need for that, I know which way to go!"

Mo Li's ruthlessness moved Gudako to pity, and she couldn't bear to send this group back to the Sun King's territory.

"Senior Mo Li...I want to..."

"You're not going to tell me you want to take them with you on this journey, are you?!"

"Yes, I can see that. They are just as determined as we are, and wouldn't it be better if we all went together for each other's sake?"

Gudako said cautiously, occasionally glancing up to steal a glance at Mo Li's reaction.

"Having the determination and having the ability are two different things. If we take them with us, one of them is very likely to die on the way. Leaving them here is the best protection for them!"

"but(

Gudako argued her case, trying her best to persuade Moli to bring the refugees along.

Seeing that the two were about to come to blows, Mash, Da Vinci, and the others quickly stepped in to stop them.

"Wait, senior, can't we talk this out?"

"I think it would be better to do this: let's be fair and have everyone vote to decide whether they stay or leave."

Da Vinci suggested that she didn't want her people to scatter before they even reached the mountainous area.

"I have no opinion!"

"Me too!"

Seeing that the two had agreed with his idea, Leonardo da Vinci turned around and raised his right hand high.

"Then... those who agree that Lu Shide and the others should go along, please raise your hands!"

Gudako raised her hand first and gave Mash a wink.

Mashu looked at Mo Li with great difficulty, and then raised her hand as well.

Bedivere wanted to raise his hand, but considering his current status and Mo Li's kindness, he chose to remain silent.

Sanzang unconditionally supported his disciple, even though Mo Li did not acknowledge it.

Judging from the result, it's 3 to 3, and the two sides seem to have tied.

"It's a tie. This makes things difficult!"

This result surprised Mo Li, who had thought he was sure to lose. After all, both Sanzang and Bedivere were selfless and dedicated, which was far from Mo Li's personality.

Just as everyone was silent, Fufu's shout drew everyone's attention.

Fou ran up to Mashu's shoulder and struggled to raise her paws.

Upon seeing this, Leonardo da Vinci's eyes lit up, and he immediately said:

"Great, the result is four to three, Lu Shide can join us on the journey!"

Faced with this result, Mo Li snorted coldly, glared at Fu Fu, and tacitly approved the refugees' inclusion.

The group set off anyway, because the atmosphere between the two sides had become somewhat tense after what had just happened.

Da Vinci tried to reconcile the ingredients several times, but the effect was not very noticeable.

Gudako wanted to explain to Mo Li, but every time the words reached her lips, she swallowed them back.

Mo Li didn't take it to heart. As a demon king, he still had the magnanimity to tolerate others.

What he was thinking about now was whether Mordred was among the Knights of the Round Table if they had all appeared in the world, and whether she still remembered him.

Night fell quickly, and everyone was exhausted after walking all day.

The good news is that they have left the desert and arrived near the mountainous area.

"Thank you, Leonardo da Vinci!"

"No, please take these to them!"

Da Vinci waved his hand, then took out two loaves of bread and handed them to Gudako, before pointing to the hillside.

On the hillside, Mo Li and Bedwell stood together, seemingly talking about something.

Gudako nodded, mustered her courage, stood up, and walked towards the hillside.

Meanwhile, Mo Li was talking to Bedivere about the Lion King.

"You mean to say that Artoria became like this because she didn't die?"

"Yes, I suspect that someone has taken over the Queen's consciousness, which is why she did these things."

"This is difficult. Is there any way to restore her original consciousness?"

Bedivere lowered his head, and after a moment of silence, his eyes became incredibly determined.

"Of course there is, that is..."

Before Bedivere could even offer a solution, Gudako's voice came from behind them.

"Um... Senior Mo Li, Bedivere, you two must be hungry, there's some bread here..."

Mo Li frowned and turned around, only to find Gudako standing awkwardly behind them, holding two pieces of bread in her hand, looking extremely uncomfortable.

The two of them naturally couldn't continue their conversation in front of her.

"Thank you, Fujimaru Ritsuka!"

Bedivere stepped forward and took the bread from Gudako's hand. He must be quite hungry after walking all day.

Chapter 467 Mountainous Regions, the Territory of the Hassans

"I know, you must be tired after a long day, so go back and get some rest!"

Mo Li just wanted to get Gudako away as soon as possible so he could continue talking to Bedivere about regaining consciousness, which was related to whether he could awaken his memories with Artoria.

But Gudako mistakenly thought that Mo Li had not forgiven her yet, and lowered her head in extreme disappointment.
