"Click."

The door in front of him was slowly opening, but Maka didn't move it. It opened by itself. Yes, it was as if... the palace was welcoming his arrival.

Maka glanced inside for a moment and found that although there was fog in the main hall, it was much thinner than outside. It was only because there was no lighting inside that it still seemed very dim.

After a slight pause, he raised his legs and walked inside.

"Ta-ta, tap-ta, tap-ta..."

The footsteps of Maka and Willie overlapped each other, echoing faintly in the hall that became increasingly empty as almost all the furnishings had been removed. Other than that, there was no movement at all here.

, as if they were the only two people here.

But Maka could clearly feel that there was "someone" waiting for him in the darkness ahead.

"despair."

Suddenly, Maka, who had reached about half the distance, stopped moving forward, while Willie behind him also stopped silently with tacit understanding... The two stopped in the center of the hall.

Almost at the same time, groups of gray-white flames "bang bang" ignited from the torches on the wall pillars on both sides, illuminating the entire hall with a strange color.

It should be said that Maka and Weili are not the first guests here, but before this, none of the others had received the treatment of the owner who took the initiative to provide lighting for them.

From this, it can be seen that they...or to be more precise, the importance of Maca in someone's mind is evident.

When the light of the flames radiated, Maka raised her head slightly, passed by the high-level zombies on both sides of the front, and looked directly at the deepest part of the hall, where even the light from the torch could not be fully illuminated.

On top of the bright steps.

There, there was a pair of eyes as deep as ink staring at him.

And then, it was Haierbo who spoke first.

"McLean, you have a good momentum... I have said before that in this barren era, you are the only one worthy of me looking at you. But now it seems that you have never disappointed me."

Haierbo's voice was extremely hoarse, buzzing as if it came directly from the chest, but it was also unusually loud.

Seeing that Maka didn't seem to want to speak, he continued:

"By the way, I remember I also said that we actually don't have the most direct conflict. If you are willing, we may also be partners... Others do not have this qualification, but you are completely different. I believe,

Whether as an enemy or as a companion, you can bring me the greatest surprise."

It wasn't until Haierbo said this that Maka frowned a little impatiently and said calmly:

"Are you done?"

After a moment of tranquility, Haierbo, who was sitting on the throne and holding his head with one hand, shook his head and said:

"This is your...last choice."

As soon as he finished speaking, Maka suddenly walked forward and said as he walked:

"At least I think there may be many people in this world who can look down on me, criticize me, and guide me, but you are by no means any of them. You, like me, are just ordinary people who are still struggling with their destiny.

'That's all."

While speaking, the dozens of high-level zombies standing on both sides suddenly took action as Maka continued to approach the throne. Fists, soul flames, magic arcs, and even weapons of various shapes...the attacks continued.

Say hello to Maka.

At first, Wei Li could still use various demonized plants that were grown by soul power to block and defend them, but the closer they got to the depths of the hall, the more powerful and strange the power of those living corpses became.

Especially the last four individuals, each of them has even mastered a first-level rule, which is extremely difficult to deal with if they are skilled in it. Even Maka couldn't help but raise her eyebrows slightly after seeing it.

However, she was surprised, but Maka's footsteps were the same as before in the square outside, and she still didn't stop at all.

When an incorporeal shadow flew to the ground in front of him, he stepped down and violently shook out the living corpse that had transformed into a shadow trap;

When the floor around him twisted and deformed, turning into orange high-temperature lava and sweeping toward him, he still stepped forward. The magma cooled back to rock, and then turned back into flat ground;

Even when the last two living zombies with similar appearances both released the soul-devouring power that only Haierbo could have at him, not only did Maka not care about the fierce suction force against the soul, but even Willie behind him didn't care at all.

Affected.

"boom"

With a wave of his hand, he swept aside the living corpse blocking his eyes, and Maka stepped onto the deepest step without stopping.

Then, he stood firmly in front of the throne on the steps.

From this point on, it can be seen that Haierbo's demonic body is indeed very tall. Even when sitting, it is taller than Maka when standing.

Of course, now that things have happened, I am afraid no one will judge the level of strength based on body size. When it comes to body size, the biggest one here is the powerful living zombie below who is tightly entangled by Weili's plants.

right.

At the moment, Haierbo was still sitting on the throne. Maka didn't speak, and he didn't speak either. But when the high-level zombies below wanted to rush up and continue to attack Maka, he gently waved his hand to let them all move.

All his men returned to their original positions.

At this moment, Willie, who had been following Maka on guard, stood up straight again and continued to stalk Maka's back silently.

After a few seconds, Maka stared at Haierbo, frowned slightly and said:

"Why, don't you do it yourself?"

"Oh, no!" Haierbo said calmly, "I don't think it's necessary."

"Are you still dreaming about making me your companion or subordinate?" Maka said coldly, "Or do you think that even if I fight you now, I will definitely lose?"

"No, no, no!" Hearing this, Haierbo immediately shook his head in denial again, "Have you forgotten what I just said? I said, I have never underestimated you. It's just that if you want to really defeat me, it seems that you can't.

Unlikely, isn't it?"

Haierbo is right!

Because even if Maka has now learned two branches of soul rules, coupled with other methods, it may be enough to "kill" Haierbo who has a demon body.

But what happens after that?

This problem must eventually return to its origin. As long as the Devouring Mirror is not broken, Haierbo cannot really die. This is the most fundamental problem that has always troubled Maka.

"So," Haierbo said, he suddenly sat up straight, spread his hands and said, "Look! All of this is meaningless, after all, 'procrastination' is never a way to solve problems!"

"But it is a necessary means to find a way."

Before he finished speaking, Maka swung out his backhand without any warning and pushed it straight towards Helbo's terrifying face.
