"Miss Williams!"

"Are you all okay, what happened?!"

"Those damned lunatics blocked the bridge and set fire to the entire slum!"

"what……"

Hyde was shocked.

There are still many residents and homeless people trapped in the fire. It is too late to extinguish the flames or gather them to use magic to bypass the blockade.

"Rescue the people who are still alive and escape underground. It is connected to a vast space. You can avoid the flames and don't have to worry about the air!"

A large number of houses collapsed in flames, and the island turned into hell!

Chapter 46 Flowers in the Mud

There were only a dozen survivors, and they didn't show much joy in escaping from death. Everyone's expression was dull and dull.

They gathered at the entrance of the dirty drain, and a depressive atmosphere was brewing, occasionally the sobbing of young children could be heard.

Miss Rosa leaned on the ground wearily, her curly hair was burnt to pieces, and there were some black scorched marks on her dress.

People on the streets of Mansur are obviously more likely to trust this courtesan who has lived here for a long time than the wanted outsider.

For this reason, she insisted on entering the fire scene with Ella and others to rescue people. This strange fire was mixed with strange magic power of unknown origin. Ella's magic was greatly restricted in this environment.

Ayla engraved runes at the entrance to the underground drain, and with the special environment, the flames should not be able to threaten the underground.What's more, compared to extinguishing the fire on the ground, it is much less difficult to simply defend the entrance.

"Hyde, do you know what those light spots are?"

Ella had never seen similar descriptions in Kraft's collection of books. They were like some kind of familiars created by wizards, but they had real life breath.

She felt that there might be related records in the tomes of the pure-blood family.

Hyde just shook his head.

"I've never seen anything like that, but they probably have something to do with the Paramons and that Serbian priest."

Ayla turned to Ling again, and the latter replaced his answer with silence.

She sighed and continued,

"I couldn't detect the magic aura from Priest Selvi's body... She must not be a wizard."

The situation outside is becoming more difficult to control. Now even Aila and the others will be in danger if they enter the streets of Mansour. No matter what they do, they can only wait until the fire reduces.

"Drink it."

Ella sat next to Rosa Veriter and took out the medicine. To this day, there were only a few medicines left in her package.

"I'm fine, use it for someone else, a lot of people got burned."

Miss Rosa shook her head, stood up, and fed the potion to the youngest child among the survivors.The sobbing toddler from the burn slowly calmed down and fell asleep.

The space at the entrance of the underground drainage channel is relatively narrow. After a short rest, people got up and went deep underground.

Not far away, Suharto's tall figure appeared in front of everyone. He was disturbed by the commotion from the ground and planned to see what happened.Behind him were several other smaller ghouls, and Johanna was left deep in the lair because of his weakness.

-

Screams broke out from the crowd, and an old woman fell to the ground, shaking all over.

"Strange...monster!"

The crowd began to despair. There was a blazing fire behind them, and a group of ferocious monsters appeared in front of them.

"I'm not a monster, I'm a human being! Do you remember me? I'm Suharto Vidor. I lived at No. [-] Mansoor Road before I lost my job. We are all human beings, not monsters!"

Suharto tried his best to explain, but his old bellows-like voice made the survivors even more frightened, and his forward movements almost caused the crowd to panic.

"Shit! Brother Suharto is dead a long time ago!"

"Damn, cunning monster!"

"..."

Suharto stopped, lowered his arms, and stood silently.

"They're still human."

Ella stepped forward and stood in front of the ghoul.

"Wanted strangers... I understand, it was you who brought the monster to the town! Because of this, my wife was burned to death!"

"Who would believe you!"

The spirit of the middle-aged man nearly collapsed. He picked up a piece of gravel from the ground and threw it vigorously.

Rosa Willett stood in front of Ira, and the stone hit her on the forehead, bleeding.She shook for a while, then stabilized her body, took out a handkerchief, and carefully wiped away the blood because she was afraid of the pain and did not dare to move too much.

"I also believe he is Mr Suharto, please direct your anger and hatred towards the militias and clergymen who set fire to it, and if you are a man, don't bully a girl! Don't forget who brought you from the ground Rescued from above!"

After speaking, Miss Rosa turned around, her body was trembling slightly, it could be seen that she was very scared now.But the lady gulped, walked up to the gigantic ghoul, grabbed its right hand and held it aloft,

"I remember the physical features of every man on this street. Mr. Suharto lost his job because of an injury to his right hand. You see, there are still scars here!"

"Remember the physical characteristics of everyone? Who knows if what you said is true or not..."

A young woman, a tailor from Mansour Road, spoke out.

"I believe all the men present know very well whether what I said is true!"

Rosa Willett didn't shy away from it. On the contrary, the men among the survivors all showed a little bit of embarrassment.

"She's so cool, don't you think."

Hyde sighed and stood in front of Suharto. He stroked the ring and planned to use the ability of mind control to stabilize the mood of the crowd.

At this moment, Jack took out a shotgun, raised his right hand high, aimed upward and fired.

"boom!"

The roar of gunpowder drowned out all noise.

"We don't care about your opinions. If you are not satisfied, you can return to the ground by yourself, or simply try the bullet with your own head!"

Ling clenched her fists, but still stood silently in the corner.

This made Ella feel somewhat disappointed and sad.

Over time, some people have come to accept the status quo, but most people remain hostile, but even then no one will disagree.

The crowd continued forward, heading deeper into the ghoul's lair.They were afraid of each other, occupied two corners far apart, curled up and began to rest.

Ella walked to Ling who was squatting in the corner,

"you……"

Her words were interrupted by the latter,

"I know, you are right, I was impulsive - don't worry, I don't plan to purify those ghouls -"

"No, they're human."

Ella frowned.

"Yes...that's right, so I won't hurt Suharto and Johanna."

Ling smiled weakly, an ugly smile that was forced out.

She stretched out her hand, intending to ruffle Ella's hair as before, but she only stretched out halfway and was completely indifferent.

Ella sat next to her, equally tired.

At this time, Ayla noticed that the gray light cluster she finally grasped from the depths of the dream produced some fluctuations, and it seemed that she was almost able to show the shape of Yinyue.But so far, she still can only see some fragmented fragments, and has no idea how to separate them.

Maybe after some time, she will be able to see that memory more clearly and know where Ling's heart is.

Ella has strong unease about the future. Letters asking for help have been sent for several days, but so far there is still no news.

The underground is not absolutely safe, so the three executors and Jack decided to take turns to watch the night.

Chapter 47 Streets of Death

Ella opened her eyes, she was now well rested.The girl treated meditation as sleep and survived the last round of vigil. Now she has basically recovered her spirit and magic power.

Voices came from the depths of the underground waterway, and she looked back.Miss Rosa and Jack's figures appeared at the end of the dimly lit passage.

Ella took out a silver pocket watch. The time on it was six in the morning, and light had already shone in from outside the passage. It seemed that her task of vigil was over.

"Everything looks fine."

Jack's eyeballs were bloodshot, and the lack of alcohol made the old man look a little sluggish.

Rosa seemed to have had a good rest and seemed to have regained her vitality. She used a borrowed knife to cut off the burnt section of hair, and the ends of her hair looked a little uneven.

"It's morning, Miss Williams, you can go to rest."

Ella shook her head, stood up, and stretched her stiff limbs.

"No, I'm in good condition now. We'll be leaving for the surface soon."

"It would be better to take a short rest, your companions haven't woken up yet, right?"

Rosa had a worried look on her face.

"You mean us?"

A voice with a little smile sounded from behind Rosa, startling her.

"Mr. Belusay? When did you..."

Hyde has been standing behind her for some time.

This is the magic "Sigh of the Neglected". From the very beginning, not only Jack and Rosa Willett appeared at the end of the passage, but until Hyde opened his mouth, no one present noticed his existence .
