"It's, this thing is pulling me!" Alice wanted to shout these words, but she couldn't say a word.It was as if her throat and tongue didn't exist, and what came out was just a series of unexplained mumblings.
Everyone else had noticed something strange about Alice, and Phil and Roy, who were closest to her, immediately rushed forward and tried to pull off the tentacles wrapped around Alice's arms.
Visian also came over with a bottle of holy water. He threw away the cork and poured the holy water directly over his head and face.
White smoke steamed up, however, however!
The holy water was of no use, the tentacles were still constantly coming out of the gem, and at the same time, their number was also increasing dramatically.By the end, the entire tent was overwhelmed by these tentacles.
The red tent roof gradually disappeared from Alice's field of vision, and slowly, only darkness remained in her field of vision.But in this darkness, she wondered if she saw a pair of eyes filled with resentment.
Large and small, densely packed, it is almost so heavy that it makes people feel breathless just looking at it.Alice lost consciousness under such circumstances...
————————————————————————————————————————
A moment passed as the darkness was dispelled by light and oxygen simultaneously refilled their lungs.
"I can breathe again? I can breathe in again!?"
Such thoughts ran through Alice's head, and she woke up and gasped for air.The tip of her nose smelled a smell of air mixed with the smell of sea water and rust, which made her feel unexpectedly relieved.
Opening her eyes and waiting for her vision to clear again, she found that she was back at her original place - the hidden chamber in the underwater maze.
"Here it is, we're back!" Alice grinned happily. After being dazed for a while, she immediately lowered her head to check herself.
There were no black tentacles on her arms, and the weird feeling no longer bothered her.
Alice relaxed, and at this moment, two muffled groans came from behind her.She turned stiffly and looked back. Not far behind her, next to the sarcophagus, Vician and Caschia were standing up together, rubbing the backs of their heads.
"Hiss! What happened all of a sudden!?" Wei Xi'an muttered angrily.When he returned here, he hit the back of his head directly on the edge of the sarcophagus and almost bled into a river.
Caschia was also quite unlucky. Although he was not hit hard by the sarcophagus, he was hit by the "malignant hand" of the pile of gold coins.
The back of the head hurt so much that it could be said to burst from the pain, which prevented Vician and Caschia from immediately noticing anything strange around them.Until they got used to the pain, they looked around in confusion.
They have indeed returned to the original point in time. This is certain. Everything in this room remains as it was when they were transferred, except...
Except for the female body.
"Wait a minute, wait a minute! Where is the body? Where did it go!?" Alice ran around the room in a panic.She rummaged through the piles of gold coins around her and dug inside a few more times, trying to find the missing "lady" inside.
"Calm down! No, it's better to panic at this time..." Visian didn't know what to do. He ran to the sarcophagus and looked inside.
"???"
This was an incredible sight, and Wei Xi'an looked straight at the person lying inside.That was Eva, the Eva with her eyes open and her face expressionless.
There was nothing strange about her appearance, she looked exactly like she did at the camp.
Vician waved and called Alice and Caschia over.He pointed at the inside of the sarcophagus and complained loudly: "Is this guy coming back with us like this!?"
"Ah? What?" Alice jumped up from the ground. She ran straight towards Vishian, and then barely stopped in front of him.She looked inside in the direction Vician's finger pointed, and she saw the same thing.
Eva followed them back to the present, and not only her, but also the diamond-shaped gem held by Alice.
"This is..." Alice reached out and took the gem from Eva's chest, but when her hand touched Eva, Eva suddenly "came back to her senses."
Eva stepped out of the sarcophagus like a normal human being, her long skirt flowing with her movements.
"I woke up, thank you, thank you." Eva began to speak, her voice sounded hoarse, like the sound made by two worn-out gears rubbing against each other.
Chapter 2 Eva wakes up
Eva seemed to suddenly have a soul. Her posture and the way she walked towards Alice were completely different from before.She was no longer the "well-behaved" life-size doll. Alice could feel the hormones floating freely from her body, and the other person's smile and movements revealed a sense of...charming?
If Eva, who first met Alice on Black Moon Island, was a graceful and flawless white tulip, then she is now like a blooming rose.
The "petals" stained with the deadly fragrance stretch out randomly and attract attention.
Alice stared blankly for a while, and then she quickly stepped back when she realized what was going on.What is disgraceful is that she is an incurable beauty control, and all looks related to "beauty" have unparalleled appeal to her.
This habit once caused her to suffer a lot. Needless to say, she was rejected many times when she confessed her love. In the end, she even doubted whether the people she fell in love with had normal roles.
She felt the same way when she met Samuel, and she felt the same way about Eva.For her, this was almost like a huge alarm bell suddenly ringing in her ears, "No, no! This guy is very dangerous!" She desperately repeated to herself.
Seeing Eva getting closer and closer to her, Alice was feeling anxious.She vaguely heard Eva say something similar to "Thank you", but the long words that followed the other party failed to sink into her ears.
She just watched in a daze as Eva walked up to her, moved to her face coquettishly, and blew out a mouthful of air mixed with fragrance into her face.
"Hey!" Alice's whole body was excited, and she ran forward like a cat caught by its tail.After a few steps, she huddled behind Caschia, unwilling to come out.
Oh, right.She also called out Starlight and held her in front of her as a "resistance."
After a while, she mustered up the courage to break the awkward atmosphere that filled the scene. She asked in a weak voice: "Who are you?"
After hearing Alice's question, Eva showed an expression of nothing but confusion. She tilted her head innocently, looked at Alice, who only had half of her head exposed, and said, "Who am I? I am who I am."
"Why are you running away from me? We obviously got along very well when we were in the camp."
Harmony...!Damn it!
Alice wanted to say such a thing, but she held back. Only she knew how she felt when she saw Eva. "Creepy" and "uncomfortable" were obviously not enough. She opened her mouth tangledly to refute Eva's words, but in the end, she chewed up all the sentences and swallowed them.
"I don't know why, but I don't like her. At least not the way she is now." Alice chose to share her current mood, and the people she shared with were naturally her two companions.
Vician and Caschia studied the expression on Alice's face in silence, and they found that Alice was indeed uncomfortable with Eva from the bottom of her heart.
However, Alice was never able to explain to them what she felt. She generally called it "the fear of being replaced."This feeling flashed through Alice's mind just now. It was like a bolt of lightning in a thunderstorm, coming and going as quickly as it came.
And I don’t know where it came from...
At the same time, Eva took steps again and walked towards Alice.Her steps were light and she was oblivious to the debris that irritated her bare soles.
Imagine the feeling of having stones on your bare feet, it hurts, doesn’t it?It is difficult to imagine anyone other than ascetic monks who could withstand such torture.
Eva had slowly walked not far from Vician and Caschia, but she stopped there and seemed to have no intention of moving forward again.
"Can you give in? I want to talk to her." Eva frowned, and the corners of her mouth turned downwards.After a while, she continued: "Please get out of the way."
Her tone was cold, as if no one except Alice could interest her.
Alice moved back wordlessly. She noticed Eva's indifferent attitude towards Vician and Caschia, and she even felt that the other party was a little disgusted with her two companions.
It's as if her very sincere-sounding "Thank you" didn't come out of her mouth. Maybe the "you" didn't include her two male companions from the beginning?
"What do you remember?" Caschia suddenly asked Eva a question.In fact, he just wanted to test whether Eva's memory was normal. If it was normal, there might be room for conversation.
After listening to Caschia's question, Eva narrowed her eyes and looked at Caschia with displeasure.After two or three minutes, she sighed, playing with the hair hanging from her ears, and answered: "I was rescued from the castle by her, and then the tall, stupid guy sent me there. In the tent.”
"What's next...what else is there to say? She and another woman took turns taking care of me, but you don't know where you died."
She spoke in great detail, and there was no hesitation in her tone when speaking.She is indeed the Eva brought back by Alice, but I don’t know why...
But what she said was as if she was questioning why Caschia and the others didn't come to take care of her.Although in fact, they did not allocate any time to take care of her, this is a fact and cannot be refuted.
However, theoretically speaking, their behavior cannot be considered as "particularly disrespectful". After all, they have to consider avoiding suspicion...
But Eva didn't think so. She seemed to think that it was natural for someone to take care of her.Therefore, she was satisfied with Alice, who had been taking care of her, while treating Vician and Caschia, who were of no use to them, as if they were bastards.
To be honest, her behavior is inexplicably like the owner of the manor Henry XII or the "eldest lady" Diana Puchner. Her look of looking down on others is almost carved from the same mold as those two people. The same.
I don’t know why her temper became like this, or is this her original character?
After a brief chat, Caschia's questioning was eventually terminated due to Eva's lack of cooperation.Caschia turned around, ignoring the complaint from Eva behind him, "When are we going out!?"
Talk to your companions...
—TBC—
Chapter 241 The whirlpool of jealousy (1)
Caschia turned around silently, leaving behind Eva's complaining shouts.He cleared his throat and said to his two companions: "She is indeed Eva. At least she can be regarded as someone who has experienced the same experience as 'Eva'."
"What should we do with her? Shall we stay together on the Isabella?" he continued to ask.
Alice shook her head quickly. She had no good impression of Eva. She said: "I don't want her to follow me. I don't like her. I don't know why, I just don't, no..."
"It doesn't matter, I don't like her either." Visian patted Alice on the shoulder with great understanding.He was not interested in Eva either, she was just like those annoying ladies in the Saper family.
If there was anything that could cheer him up, it was that one day suddenly word spread in the streets that "their kind are extinct."
What's so difficult about people like Wei Xi'an is that no matter how much patience you give him, he will eventually fall apart halfway through the conversation.
"If there is a voting system at this time, then I will vote 'not to take her away'" Wei Xi'an sighed quietly. Although he said this, he knew that they had no option to leave Eva alone. .
Let’s not talk about why the body that disappeared out of thin air turned into Eva. Let’s talk about the fact that Eva suddenly acted like a human being.She is very mysterious, so mysterious that people want to find out the story behind her.The three of them more or less have the answers they want to find from Eva, but that is based on the premise that Eva is not dangerous.
Eva is now like Vishian's beloved grenade. No one knows what is inside or what it is used for until it explodes with a bang.
Maybe this "grenade" will explode directly in their faces...
All in all, it would be too dangerous to take Eva back like this. If it were the life-size "doll" Eva who had no emotions or movements before, they would be happy to take her back and study it... Ahem, okay Take care of.
"But we can't just leave her at the bottom of the sea like this." Alice said and glanced in the direction of Eva. However, after she came into contact with the other party's hot gaze, she immediately withdrew her gaze as if she was electrocuted.She trembled and said, "That's right, we have to take her with us."
"As long as she stays away from me..."
After all, Alice is still very resistant to Eva, but she can't ignore Eva even though she beats her.She's quite indecisive sometimes, isn't she?
"I understand, let's do this." Caschia thought for a while, and then made a suggestion. He said: "We take her back first, and then let Ivan Bell look at her. In this way Ivan Bell can both Shock Eva, and you will feel more at ease with her by your side, right?"
Alice didn't understand why Caschia proposed to let her Ivan take care of Eva, but after thinking about it carefully, Ivan Bell might really be the "chain" holding Eva back.
It’s just that Eva will definitely not get along with Ivan, Alice is sure of this.
"Is this okay? Ivan, she, she will definitely join Eva in making a quarrel!" Alice still asked the questions in her heart.
"Do you still want us to take care of her? Look at her eyes, she looks at us like we are dogs." Wei Xi'an shook his shoulders and continued to complain: "Or do you want to stay alone with her? ?”
"No! Let Ivan watch her." Alice's head shook like a rattle.In the face of one's own "safety", one still has to betray his teammates when it's time to betray them.
After discussion, the three of them unanimously decided to take Eva back to the Isabella for the time being. At the same time, they also made a decision that if Eva made something like "You were deceived by me! I will kill you now!" "When you act, you must throw it into the sea and feed the fish."
The sea is a very tolerant place and has everything. Presumably one more unlucky person will not cause much trouble to Mother Dahai.
I hope so……
They are not perfect good people, and the prerequisite for all good deeds is that their safety will not be threatened.Alice said that this made sense. She had been in contact with death and hated the cold and biting feeling.
If possible, she wanted to avoid "death" from happening.
After discussing it, they took Eva to escape from this underwater maze.
But this time they don't have to climb down bit by bit, they just need to slide down easily, like riding a slide.
