Chapter 515: Chapter 140 Victim_1
Only realism can be deceptive.
Only a real battle won’t reveal any flaws.
Because there are no flaws.
If preparations are made in advance, it becomes a play.
Which is easily exposed.
However, even if Link hadn’t fled into the Fairy World through the “Small World” in time, he wouldn’t have been in real danger.
Not to mention that Lady Lisandra Diomand, who had been following him secretly, would have come to his rescue in a real life-threatening crisis.
The mechanism of the Star-annihilating Cannon alone left enough room for Link to escape.
A Star-annihilating Cannon could only fire three consecutive shots, then it had to recharge its energy.
It was entirely reasonable for Zoran Archie, due to the sudden incident, to only use one Star-annihilating Cannon.
It wouldn’t arouse suspicion from anyone or any force.
The interval between the third and fourth Star-annihilating Cannonfire was about 1 to 2 seconds.
This time was enough for Link to escape from the range of the Star-annihilating Cannon.
He could even directly escape into Ravensmouth Special Area, into the surveillance protection system of the academy.
Due to various restrictions, it made complete sense for Zoran Archie to give up the chase after Link escaped the six Star-annihilating Cannon attacks and fled into the Ravensmouth Special Area.
The “scenario” that Lady Lisandra and Dean Frist designed was just like this.
Who would have thought that despite Link noticing the brief gap between the third and fourth Star-annihilating Cannonfire, and seizing this gap, his first reaction was not to escape back to the academy.
Instead, he entered the “Small World”, and then transferred to the Fairy World!
“This little fellow sure has a temper.”
Lady Lisandra, looking at the deep pit continuously emitting black smoke and the completely scrapped “Phantom Coupe” at the bottom of the pit, suddenly recalled a sentence her grandfather often mentioned when she was a child:
Don’t tempt human hearts, they can’t withstand the temptation.
At this moment, Lisandra also understood somewhat why Frist had opposed her arrangement.
After resisting in vain, he had gone around in circles to let her personally be Link Grande’s “nanny”.
“A necessary sacrifice is acceptable.”
Lady Lisandra mumbled to herself, then turned around, took a stride into the void, left the Wizard World Homeland, and returned to the headquarters of the academy.
If that little fellow doesn’t trust the academy in the critical moment, let him get a good beating out there!
“Master! Master!”
As soon as Link appeared in the Fairy World, Franda cried and pounced over.
She was frantically casting Healing Magic on Link.
Pouring the Healing Potions taken out from the “Small World” like there was no cost.
“Vicious indeed!”
With Franda to take care of things, Link didn’t have to worry about his injuries or his life.
He lay on the lawn of the Fairy World, looking at the totally different sky and breathing the completely different air.
Cough cough …
This air was toxic, shouldn’t inhale too much.
After taking out a mask from the “Small World” and putting it on, Link continued to reflect on his experiences.
It was only then that he finally understood what a necessary sacrifice meant!
The leader of the Lucia’s Family team, that elder cousin, willingly made a necessary sacrifice for some interests and ideas.
This could be understood.
It was just a personal choice.
But what about Link.
Just yesterday, he had got rid of his fears in front of the dean, but today he suffered a “backstabbing”.
Could a person’s heart be truly harder than a diamond and colder than liquid nitrogen?
As long as it’s crowned with “necessary sacrifice” and “greater interest”, it’s justified to do some highly destructive things.
“Truly ruthless!”
Link sighed again, then went full throttle with the “Mind Closure Technique”, entered an extremely rational state, ignored the pain, and began to treat his wounds with Franda.
This severe blow was non-fatal, but it woke Link up.
No matter how strong his offensive might be, the essence of life is evident – if you get killed, you die!
Spectacular combat power wasn’t the real pursuit, the strength of vitality was.
One must not only be superior in the universe, but also live long.
“What happened? How did you get hurt so badly?”
The Captain of the Guard of the Palo Sage army’s forward base, appeared beside Link in a flash.
Looking at Link, whose life was saved but who was seriously injured and needed a lengthy period of rest to fully recover, he asked curiously.
“Cough cough …”
Link’s lungs were pierced. As soon as he tried to speak and took a deep breath, it triggered pain and stress coughing.
After coughing for a while and adjusting his breathing, Link directly sent a telepathy message, sighing faintly, “It’s a long story.”
“Then keep shorth.”
The captain of the guard gestured to the team members who had come out with him to check the situation to put Link on a stretcher and carry him back to the forward base.
The Captain of the Guard rushed over as soon as he found out Link had appeared out of nowhere.
He was in a hurry and didn’t bring a Medical Intelligent Puppet, only a Battlefield Stretcher.
Fortunately, Link’s injuries were now under control.
“Sigh!”
First, Link sighed, then he enigmatically said, “It’s a necessary sacrifice.”
The Captain of the Guard understood immediately.
Wasn’t this the same situation as when the Palo Sage army was besieged by the Abyss Demon?
It seems that the academy has indeed encountered a big issue recently, taking action after action, with “necessary sacrifices” one after another.
Sensing that Link’s injury wasn’t a simple matter and that there were many secrets, the Captain of the Guard resolutely curbed his curiosity.
He took the initiative to disconnect Link’s “telepathy” link and traveled quietly.
In no time, the Captain of the Guard had brought two team members and carried Link into Sage Palo’s tent.
