"Apprentice knight, we have no time."

After waiting for a few seconds, Winston whispered when Greg was silent: "I know what you are thinking, but our duty is only to follow orders, and the elders have a more long-term and comprehensive plan... in the execution of tasks We can’t have our own ideas when it comes to time, otherwise it will only lead to more unpredictable consequences.”

"For the sake of you being Joseph's disciple, I will only remind you this time."

"Joseph's character is too upright... I grew up with him in the cultivation department, and it is not an exaggeration to say that I am one of the few people who know him best. He is indeed the fearless and invincible white flame that you all admire. It’s been that way until now.”

"However, this impression in your eyes is based on the fact that he disobeyed the orders of the tower countless times and made his own choices during the mission."

Greg was taken aback, and subconsciously retorted: "Those are..."

"You may think this is a good thing? Because everyone is happy in the end every time? Oh, have you ever seen Joseph seriously injured and dying... It seems cruel to say this, but it is true. I have seen it countless times .”

"When fighting side by side with him, he will always deviate from the elders' arrangements. Obviously, as long as he acts according to the plan, he will be able to solve the matter at the lowest cost, but he will not even allow this price. It seems cool on your own, but once you experience it for yourself, you realize how heavy it is."

"If he didn't have that strength, those one-in-a-million luck...he would have died on the battlefield long ago, how could he still have the title of 'Invincible Holy Flame'."

Greg really wanted to continue to refute like this - what they worshiped was Joseph who created this name and could perform countless miracles on the verge of life and death and save everyone.

But the words stuck in his throat, and the boy suddenly realized that this was not the slander of Joseph's enemies, but the confession of Joseph's friends.

When he said these words, he didn't mean to say that Joseph's achievements today depended on luck, and that his later depravity was a manifestation of his incompetence...

He just wants to say that Joseph is not as perfect and bright as you worship, he is not an invincible fairy-tale hero, he is just a powerful and somewhat willful human being.

Or he just wanted to tell others that Joseph was human too.

And as long as you are human, you will... die.

Greg couldn't help thinking of that rainy night, when Joseph's seemingly indestructible body collapsed without warning in front of the owner of the bookstore.

"Some things don't develop according to what you think. You, or I, are neither Joseph, nor can they be. The tower's instructions are the core of our actions. If you want to be the second Joseph, And how do you face the possibility that if you make a mistake, you will ruin everyone around you?"

"In this riddled world that may be invaded by dreams every moment, fate will not allow you to fail even once."

As Winston spoke, he felt a little lost, and looked up at the ever-expanding force field, the center of terror that was brewing an ether storm.

Judging from previous data, the struggle between the gods usually does not last long, but it is not too short. It can be as short as a few hours, as long as a few days or even a few months, but it is enough for such a period of time Cause unimaginable disaster, especially these two people are still immortal enemies.

And in the past, they were outside of NUO Jin, but this time they were inside the city...

The seemingly stalemate situation now must be the result of some grumpy bastard trying his best to drag Wilde.

As many times in the past...

In a short time, regardless of whether Greg completes the task or not, and what decisions the Secret Ritual Tower will make, this battle will come to an end.

And the person who came out of the ruins was the final winner after two years of chasing.

Winston looked away.

"...sometimes the necessary sacrifices are unavoidable."

But are these sacrifices really necessary?

Greg couldn't help asking this in his heart, but he knew that the dispute was meaningless now, so he could only nod his head and say, "I understand, I will try my best."

Winston: "Just understand, apprentice knight, keep in touch and report at any time. Everything you do now is for Nuo Jin."

Even though he said so, Greg didn't know how to try it... It would be better to say that he had already tried it just now, but it just failed.

Now the demon on the opposite side is still waiting for his answer.

He said that he would contact and report at any time, but he didn't dare to ask how to answer in front of people.

In the end, did he still have to rely on himself?

Greg couldn't help but truly experienced "the possibility that if you make a mistake, you will ruin everyone around you", it turns out...is this the pressure Master Joseph has been facing all this time?

He took a deep breath, put down the communicator and looked at the opposite side, just in time to meet Lin Jie's eyes.

Boss Lin looked at him and asked, "This phone call... I mean, this communication has something to do with Joseph and me?"

Ask knowingly!

Greg cursed in his heart and nodded. He chose his words and felt that he could not be so straightforward: "I am a friend of Lord Joseph. I just asked about the things you helped him in the past and the tasks you are currently performing."

"That's it...those are just insignificant contributions, so there's no need to remember them now."

Lin Jie waved his hand modestly and said, "You should have the answer to that question just now, right?"

Greg raised his head, clenched his fists to encourage himself, and said, "I think——Master Joseph will win!"

Yes, he can't go against his own thoughts, even if he thinks about 10,000 possibilities, he can only say - Joseph will win.

"Oh……"

Lin Jie understood that he chose Joseph after struggling for so long. Although it was obvious that he had great confidence in Joseph, but in this way, even if he was so confident, he had to spend time thinking about it. He must have a high opinion of Wilde.

I must have thought about the situation where Wilde won.

Greg was as anxious as if he was going to the execution ground. He rubbed his hands and his heart was beating like a beating: "This is my personal opinion...you, what do you think?"

Of course, Lin Jie followed the good advice: "I think so too."

"?...!!!!"

Greg was taken aback for a moment, then ecstatically, he almost jumped up with excitement, his mind suddenly felt like he was going to faint.

He supported the table tremblingly: "Really, really? Do you also think... Master Joseph will win?"

"Of course." Lin Jie always followed the customers, and said leisurely: "Although Wilde is better at planning, Joseph's execution ability is stronger. More importantly, he has countless supporters like you, doesn't he? The twists and turns, presumably the result will be good."
