Me! Cleaner!.

Chapter 569 Choose
How did I cross the gap between humans and gods?
After hearing Prince Andre's question, the corners of Leon's mouth twitched involuntarily, and then he subconsciously reached out and touched his belly.

It's a bit troublesome to explain this in detail, but if I put it simply... except for Senior Alger who didn't come, all the members of the Scorpio Branch who participated in the mission were already holding a meeting in their stomachs.

Previously, with the "vigorous feeding" of the three predecessors, he had temporarily gained 59 points of immersion value-level power, which was only a little short of the minimum requirement of "dividing the world plane".

However, Chief Scorpio's soul was extremely "strong", and he was unable to digest and absorb it at all. However, with the power of the "Dog Guarding Death", he could "suck" a little strength out of his soul and make up for the last tiny gap.

In short, rely on your teammates.

……

"Don't you want to talk?"

Looking at the silent Leon opposite him, Prince Andre nodded indifferently and said:
"Then I won't ask. Anyway, my painting has been destroyed by you. Even if I know how you did it, it won't change anything... Well... let's talk business next."

Under Leon's vigilant gaze, Prince Andre looked up at him and said calmly:
"I have to admit that your previous evaluation of me was correct. I am indeed a coward and have always lacked the courage to face my own mistakes... Lord Lyon, do you want to know what my evaluation of you is?"

To be honest, I don't really want to know, but looking at your expression, you will definitely tell me whether I want you to or not...

Looking at Prince Andre who was looking up at him, with no hatred or anger in his emerald eyes, only a kind of determination, Leon couldn't help but sigh in his heart and continued:

"Tell me, what do you think of me?"

"Greedy. In my eyes, you are a very, very, very greedy person."

In the face of Leon's somewhat surprised expression, Prince Andre, who said "very" three times in a row, explained calmly:
"I asked Atifi to control six royal legions to besiege the palace. Facing an elite army, you chose to consume extra strength without knowing what other cards I had, knocking out all the soldiers without killing a single person.

Later, when you attacked Research Area No. 1 and destroyed the intelligent core, you knew that you might face Director Scorpio, but you still chose to dive into the cooling lake by yourself. You did not bring Alger, a first-level cleaner who was an important combat force, but let him act alone and take the opportunity to go to Research Area No. 1 to rescue people.

It is not difficult to see from these two responses that you are very, very, very greedy. You would rather take a lot of unnecessary risks to complete the task perfectly, and you are almost unwilling to accept any "loss" or "exchange"...

Well...or you can put it this way, you are a kind person with a soft heart."

"..."

After saying a lot of things and giving Leon a nice guy card, Prince Andre continued to analyze slowly:

"You hate to implicate innocent people and are used to respecting life. I guess you must have a very special set of strange ideas in your heart, which are different from other cleaners in the Cleanup Bureau and even most people.

Finally, you seem to have the stubbornness of a fanatic about your own ideas. When you determine that something is right and judge that you can bear the consequences, you will do it immediately.

I even have a vague feeling that if the "correctness" of what you want to do is high enough, even if you judge that you cannot bear the consequences, as long as it is worth it, you will still try to complete it.

To you, your life is important, but sometimes it is not so important. You are not afraid to take out your life and put it on the scale for measurement... Sir Lyon, am I correct in my judgment of you?"

"..."

Um... although it’s not entirely right, it doesn’t seem to be wrong... After listening to Prince Andre’s lengthy analysis, Leon couldn’t help but cough dryly, feeling a little embarrassed by being “praised”.

It is true that he is not afraid of death. After all, he is now occupying the position left by the "Death Guard Dog" and still holds the power it left behind. If he really dies, he will definitely be taken away by the Dead Realm to guard the gate for it.

Therefore, for myself, even if my triple immortality was broken, the worst possible outcome for me would be to die early and become the boss of the gatehouse in the world of the dead. Although this was not a good ending, it was not that difficult to accept.

"It seems that my judgment is quite accurate."

After waiting for a while and seeing no rebuttal from Leon, Prince Andre chuckled and then said indifferently:

"If someone like you is killed directly, you probably won't feel any pain. You will only feel regret for not being able to do your best. Death may not be a punishment for someone like you.

So if I want to take revenge on you, I can only destroy the ideals you believe in and let you watch the things you have been pursuing being cruelly torn apart in front of you! Only in this way can I truly hurt you and let you experience the same deep pain as me!"

"..."

"Mr. Lyon, please listen carefully."

After making an extremely childish declaration of revenge, in a world dyed orange and red, Prince Andre sat cross-legged, stared at Leon and said coldly:

"What you are facing now is the work that I am most satisfied with besides "Royal Banquet". It is called "Korok at Sunset". This painting has absorbed the world fragments in "Royal Banquet" and completed the erosion of the entire Kingdom of Korok.

And then, the setting sun in this painting will rise again from the horizon, and then continue to approach the entire Korok Kingdom until the two overlap and burn everything to ashes. "

As if to prove that what he said was true, Prince Andre waved behind him, and on the distant horizon, with only an arc of the setting sun still above the ground, it actually climbed up a little.

As the setting sun reappeared, the gentle orange-red afterglow around it suddenly brightened and began to turn into a brighter bright yellow, while a heart-wrenching heat wave rolled in from the distant horizon, instantly baking the surrounding green grass until it curled up and turned yellow.

"Mr. Leon, it's time for you to make a choice."

With his back to the increasingly blazing golden-red sunset, Prince Andre first raised his hand and pointed at the sunset behind him, then pointed at Filia behind Leon and explained:

“I am already a dead person. Now Filia is the last living member of the Korok royal family. If she dies, the Watchtower that protects all mankind will be greatly weakened immediately.

So if you still want to complete your mission to protect humanity, you must keep her. However, if you want the sun to stop and prevent the 1.3 million people in this painting from being burned to death, then you must give her body to me. "

After explaining the "rules of the game", Prince Andre looked at Leon who was a little dazed in front of him, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and he said with satisfaction:
"Mr. Leon, it will take me about an hour to finish drawing this huge sun, so you have an hour to think about it and decide which one to choose..."

"for you."

"?!!!"

Seeing Filia being thrown in front of him and falling down, the smile on Prince Andre's face froze.

No... Didn't you choose it a little too quickly? Didn't you hesitate at all?
