"Mephisto, come out too."

The surrounding gloomy environment fluctuated, as if a veil was lifted, and the figure of the short-haired girl was outlined behind it.

Ling explained,

"They are too tired. If four people act together, it will easily wake up the victims."

Hyde yawned and walked towards the entrance of the cave.

"Okay, we really should investigate what happened last night, someone will have to pay for it."

Ella nodded first, then felt a little surprised.

"That's right, someone has to pay for it, and we rarely agree...but it's hard to imagine you saying that."

After Hyde was silent for a moment, he put on that disgusting look of arrogance on his face,

"They offended me - I thought I would say goodbye to this town today and return to the comforts of Glamis, but the fire left me with the night before parting in the stench and sewage of the sewers. "

Ella smiled and didn't refute anymore.

"As it should be."

"Miss Williams, I... Forget it, I will only drag you back on the ground, have a good journey, and I will take good care of the residents and Mr. Suharto."

Rosa waved her hand. In fact, only she could stabilize the emotions of the survivors and the ghouls at the same time. Although it was only for a short time, Rosa had indeed become their most trusted person.

"Jack, protect them."

Ella took out the revolver that she bought in London a few years ago. In fact, since she came to Tangerang Island, she had almost no chance to use this weapon. Not one of them has moved.

The ghouls are not enemies, and the revolver, which is not an alchemy tool, has not entered the dream world. As for dealing with Lawrence, with Ella's aim, it may cause unnecessary accidental injuries in a small environment.

Ella handed the revolver and the purification bullet to Jack. Although she thought that Mr. Suharto, who had been transformed into a ghoul by drugs, was trustworthy, if they conflicted with the survivors, Jack needed to behave more. deterrence.

"give it to me."

Jack replied decisively that he was still as reliable as he was five years ago.

So, the three executors left the cave entrance and returned to the ground.

This ruin is what was once known as Mansour Street.

Most of the houses made of wood as the main material have been turned into charcoal, and the walls made of white stone common on the island have also been blackened by smoke.

The flames have not been completely extinguished, and a few scattered remnants of fire are scattered in the corners of the street, eating away at the last bit of the original appearance of Mansour Street.

This kind of situation made Ella have a certain illusion. It was like an absurd and terrifying world piled up by someone's nightmare, and it shouldn't exist in reality.She even felt that she was still in that rainforest temple and hadn't woken up.

There is still a scorching temperature in the air, and white ash is blown up in the wind, falling, and piling up on the ground.

The black and yellow, bare charred corpses retained their posture at the last moment of their life. Their bodies swelled unnaturally, and their skin was cracked by roasting, revealing the color of flesh and blood.

They struggled and fell to the street, their mouths wide open, screaming and roaring silently.

The bridge connecting the upper part of the town to the streets of Mansur is the deepest part of the nightmare, where a large number of corpses have been piled up, and they have been burned so that they cannot be distinguished from each other.

The canals under the bridge flowed with red-black liquid, and the smelly heat steamed upwards, making people feel sick.

This is a dead street.

It was hell that came after that and burned everything left behind.

All three were silent, unable to speak a word.

Hyde's face turned blue and he began to vomit, but because he hadn't eaten anything since last night, he could only spit out some sour clear water.

He held on to something and stood up with difficulty, only to find that it was a severed limb caught on the fence.

Hyde yelled hysterically and waved his arms.

The magical power exploded the iron fence blocking the bridge, throwing rubble upwards and falling in all directions.

Huge movements echoed over the town.

Tiny snake scales appeared on the surface of Hyde's body, as if there were some signs of losing control. He took the calming potion handed over by Ella and drank it in one gulp. He entered meditation. The scales subsided and cold sweat oozed from his forehead.

Compared with the other two, Hyde, who lived in White Rose Manor since he was a child, has never seen such a strange world. Unlike the dream world, his body directly showed strong reactions due to discomfort and strong shocks.

"Calm down... I want to calm down—damn it, how can I calm down? Shit! Is this really done by humans? Even dark wizards, even the most disgusting and terrifying dangerous creatures, are nothing more than that!"

The sound of doors and windows closing sounded one after another.

In the houses above the town, the residents huddled in their houses. For them, the human voices from the streets of Mansour undoubtedly came from the roars of evil spirits or ghosts. survived the fire.

Ella suppressed her discomfort and looked around, but she didn't find the kind of light spots that made the flames difficult to extinguish that appeared last night.

This made her vigilant, there was still some power in this town that they didn't understand.

But as Hyde said.

Whatever that is, it needs to pay for it!

Chapter 48 Families

The three of them crossed the stone bridge and left the ruins of Mansour Road.

South of the bridge, the upper part of Tangerang Town, this place far away from the fire scene is not as stable as imagined.

On the streets, in the squares, and in front of the shops, the stakes were set up, and the unknown dead were hung upside down and bound to wooden stakes.In the center of the square were several huge iron cages, which were filled with charred corpses. Carbonized limbs protruded out of the iron cages in disorder, leaving messy scratch marks on the ground.

Ling twisted the deformed lock on the iron cage, and the dead people were squeezed out of the iron cage and slid down on the limestone slab in the square.

She took a deep breath, and what poured into her cranial cavity was the sea breeze, the air mixed with scorched smell and wood ash,

"At least let you regain your freedom after death."

The sound of hurried footsteps came from not far away. A column of militiamen led by the priest appeared at the entrance of the square and quickly blocked the surrounding area. Most of the so-called militiamen were fanatical townspeople holding harpoons or axes.

The clergymen in white scarves and black robes delivered the sentence,

"Catch them, those wanted strangers are demons and witches! This is a will from God!"

After the three of them were pointed at their bodies by more than a dozen breech-loading guns, the townspeople with crazy eyes quickly surrounded them.

But then, their movements suddenly became sluggish, twisting their bodies like stiff puppets, using their bodies to cover the ballistic trajectory.

"What are you doing? Are you going to betray the officiant—betray the god? Shoot them, shoot them, these people have been bewitched by demons!"

But in the next second, the movements of the militiamen's guns began to deform, and they also began to become like puppets, pointing their guns behind them stiffly.

Under the shocked expressions of the clergy, one of the three accused of being demons and witches sneered and said,

"I think, you haven't seen a real demon or a wizard yet, have you? Well, now it's as you wish."

Hyde turned the ring and walked out of the crowd.

"you--"

"Shut up and bow down!"

Hyde spoke in a commanding tone, condescendingly, and a disgusting arrogance appeared on his face.

The priest's body began to tremble. In his perception, his eyes seemed to be covered with a thick layer of gray glass. He felt that his body was wrapped in silk threads, and his movements began to escape his own consciousness.

The spiritual power of fanatics is usually far superior to that of ordinary people, almost no less than that of ordinary wizards, but after Hyde fully activated the power of the ring, he almost completely suppressed the spirit of the priests!

The priest with a white scarf covering his face and wearing a black robe trembled, and slowly knelt down on the ground.

Hyde forcibly resisted the urge to directly order the other party to commit suicide, and asked questions,

"your name."

This is a mental suggestion that gradually increases the level of control by asking questions.

“…Safra Ali”

"Who are in these iron cages?"

"They are indentured workers or outsiders, the enemy who take jobs from the people."

"just because……"

Ella thought of what Jack said when she first came to Tangerang Island.

She felt a chill rising from the bottom of her heart. Maybe those fanatical townspeople didn't want to get rid of the so-called ghouls at all. Oppression and hatred were deeply rooted in their hearts, and this emotion was ignited by madness last night.

They were not brainwashed by religion, nor were they influenced by magic, but were entirely of their own volition.

"Why did you do that yesterday?"

Safra's body began to tremble, as if there was a strong resistance.

"answer me!"

The priest's trembling ceased,

"The priest of Servi has received a prophecy that the blood of the devil is hidden among the strangers, offering filth to the flames, and the holy womb will give birth to the true son of God—"

At this time, he suddenly broke free from the shackles of the ring of arrogance, and began to struggle crazily, as if enduring unimaginable pain.

Without warning, Safra Ali stopped all movements, his face showed an expression of extreme horror, and then his face began to swell, flames spurted out from the eyes, nostrils, and mouth, and the body of the cleric A violent spontaneous combustion phenomenon began to occur, and irregularly moving light spots spewed out from the man's facial features!

His body began to become like a huge furnace, the skin turned gray and thinned, the beating internal organs were only left with vague outlines, only the flames were burning!

The creature that was once Saraf opened its mouth and spit out a pillar of fire as thick as an arm!The hot temperature swept towards Hyde in an instant!

Hyde was unable to react for a while, he could almost smell the burnt smell of his eyebrows and hair, and the red flame magnified in his pupils!

boom!

An illusory shield made of wind and snow appeared in front of Hyde. The flames and wind and snow collided without melting each other, but made a thunderous sound!

This was Ella's magic. She had always been vigilant and reacted at the moment of the change.

The flame monster had only a short chance to attack. In the next second, the smoky black chains had already wrapped around its throat and limbs. Ling brushed past it and cut it open with a dagger in an instant. Open Saraf's whole chest!

The light spots gathered on the chest touched the Cossack dagger, and a large number were annihilated, while a small number poured out of Saraf's chest, flying around with joy. Even if there were only a few left, it would be countless!
