The flames that almost burned along the chain fell to the ground, and Vishian and the others were temporarily safe.
"Huh, they look like they can't get through." Visian leaned down and stared at the flames blocked outside the city wall from between the arrows on the side of the city wall. Those fires seemed to be blocked by a barrier.
"Just think of it as a good thing. Where do we go next?"
"Go directly to the palace and get Alice back."
"We don't have time. According to what you said, Alice is probably under their control. We don't have any extra time to waste."
Vician, Ivan Bell, and Caschia began to walk along the city wall toward the interior of the territory while talking.The temperature inside the royal territory was much lower than on the streets, and the white fog here was thicker than on the streets. The white fog blocked their sight, preventing them from seeing the road ahead clearly.
It is very dangerous to fumble forward in the fog. If you suddenly find several pairs of eyes looking at you in the fog, it will be even more dangerous in the fog.
This is the situation that Vician and the others are facing now. Several pairs of green eyes are looming in the fog, and at the same time, the low roar of beasts is heard from the depths of the fog.
Everyone drew their weapons, and Visian turned his dagger vigilantly, but he only hit the white mist.The white mist twisted and then returned to its original shape, and the eyes were still in place. Caschia and Ivan Bell also tried to hit the owners of those eyes, but they also found nothing.
"Is it an illusion?" Ivan Bell thought. She retracted her weapon and walked straight forward, letting those eyes stare at her.
She walked forward for a long distance, and the owner of those eyes made no attempt to attack her, which made her even more convinced of her own suspicion.
"Go forward, don't think about them, don't look at them." Ivan Bell's voice sounded, Vishian was stunned for a moment, and then continued to move forward as Ivan Bell said.
They met in a heavy fog, and Caschia also came out from the other side. After meeting, the three people passed through the fog in the same way and arrived at the main entrance of the palace smoothly.
The gate of the palace has not changed much, except that the flag hanging in front of the gate has been replaced by the Thief's Wrist.Caschia held the door with both hands. He glanced in the direction of Vician and Ivan Bell. Vician and Ivan Bell nodded silently and put their hands on the door.
"Squeak."
The heavy stone door was pushed open, and the palace hall appeared in front of everyone.The hall was empty, and the dark red magic light was swaying, making the place look even weirder.
"Alice!"
An unexpected look up made Ivan Bell see the girl standing in the shadow of the pillar. Her exclamation attracted the attention of the other two people, and also attracted the attention of "Alice".
"Alice" came out of the shadows. Her white dress was stained with blood, and she was holding a mutilated doll in her hand.
"not welcome……"
"Alice" looked at Vishian and the others aimlessly, her head tilted to one side, and her white neck twisted into a weird angle.
And behind her, something was about to move. ,
——TBC——
Chapter 72 True and False Alice
"not welcome……"
"Alice" said to herself, her eyes staring blankly at her former companion, her white and fragile neck twisted into a weird angle.
The "Alice" in front of Wei Xi'an and the others was like a doll that had been played with. Although she stood firmly in the hall, she gave people the feeling that she would fall down at any time.
"not welcome……"
"Alice" repeated the same words again, and this time, something seemed to be moving behind her, and black shadows made bursts of noise in the dark.
"Alice? It's us. We're here to take you back." Vician walked over. On the surface, he showed an eager look of "I finally found you," but secretly he was guarding Alice with a sharp knife. .
Alice grinned at this and her eyes turned into crescent moons, making her look a little bit more normal.
But that's all. When Vician got close enough to her, the monster hidden behind "Alice" immediately attacked Vician.
Weisian, who had been prepared for a long time, naturally would not be hit like this. He raised his right hand that had been at his side and blocked the monster's blade with the dagger in his hand.
With a "clang" sound, the two weapons collided with each other. The monster's strength was much stronger than Visian expected, and he had to step back.
In front of Vician who retreated, the smile on "Alice's" face faded, and instead she showed an expression that was close to pity.
Now it was basically certain that Miss "Alice Black" no longer regarded them as companions at all, and with the monster she hid behind her, the situation suddenly became serious.
Regardless of whether "Alice" is still the real Alice, if Vishian and the others want to "talk" to her, they must first get rid of the monster that has revealed its form.
Speaking of that monster, Visian wanted to complain a few more words. The creator of this monster seemed to have no sense of aesthetics at all. The creatures he created were as always... unacceptable.
Vician and the others have met Lorenzo, the Nest Mother and her party, plus the humanoid centipede Ivan Bell met in the arena.And now, this "freak show" may have added another actor.
The monster that attacked Vician before slowly crawled out of the shadows. It looked like a combination of human + mantis.Let's call this monster "Mantis Man" first. The two extended forelimbs of the Mantis Man are each curved in the shape of a sickle, which is the same as a real mantis.
At the same time, these two scythes were also the weapons used by the Mantis to attack Vishian just now.
"go……"
"Alice" took action again. The mantis seemed to obey her orders completely. After receiving the order from "Alice", it popped the sickle out of its forelimbs.
The attack speed of the mantis man is not too fast, but the attack strength is as mentioned before, very domineering.Wei Xi'an rolled twice on the ground. Where he stood just now, the floor on the ground was shattered into pieces.Ivan Bell's scythe scratched the Mantis Man's body, and scratches of varying depths were engraved on the Mantis Man's flesh-colored shell.
Caschia still used the same spear, and the tip of his spear was aimed at the Mantis man's joints that were not protected by the carapace.He thrust hard and then pulled out immediately. Although such an attack did not work every time, Caschia at least caused effective damage to the mantis.
It can be said that sometimes "stabbing" is much more useful than "cutting".
This time the battle with the mantis man lasted for a while. For some reason, Visian was constantly targeted by the mantis monster and was chased and beaten by the mantis monster for almost half of the time.Caschia and Ivan Bell think this is good. Once Vician involves the Mantis, their chances of attacking will increase.This is also the reason why they can finally defeat the Mantis Man, although I feel sorry for the embarrassed Vishian.
After dealing with the mantis mantis, it's time to deal with the existence of "Alice".Ivan Bell returned to the consciousness space under Caschia's instructions, and she became more and more skilled in controlling her own powers.
Entering the consciousness space this time, Ivan Bell saw the line extending from behind "Alice". She held the line and expected to find Alice's consciousness along the line.But she didn't get any information from this line, nothing.
"..." Ivan Bell shook her head and said, "This is not Alice. She looks the same, but she is not that person. And the lines on her body extend all the way to the inside."
After speaking, Ivan Bell pointed to the door on one side of the hall, and she indicated that the other end of the line was behind this.
Needless to say, Vician and Caschia believed Ivan Bell's words. The three of them opened the door and moved towards the depths of the palace.
Following the line that only Ivan Bell could see, they encountered many unexpected things.Not only did they encounter difficult synthetic monsters, they also encountered "Alice" more than once.
Counting back and forth, they saw a total of five "Alices"; those five "Alices" all had the same appearance and wore the same clothes. It was difficult to imagine whether the existence of this group of girls was real.
Vician expressed this: "What do the people of Thieves want to do? Build an Alice factory!? Where did so many Alices come from!"
His complaint was heard by the other two. In addition to agreeing, Caschia and Ivan Bell also felt an unspoken chill.
"Those who are capable of thieves are perverts who like to copy girls." This impression was deeply engraved in their hearts and could never be erased.
This impression was completely confirmed when they arrived at the audience hall. Wei Xi'an and his party came all the way to the door of the audience hall. After they pushed open the heavy door, they wanted to close the door again.
They shouldn't have such thoughts, but the world behind the door is too special... too scary.
After opening the door, Wei Xi'an and his party saw the "Alices" neatly arranged on both sides of the audience hall. This time, the girls all put on different clothes, ranging from maid outfits to bunny girls.It seemed as if Wei Xi'an and the others had come to some strange place.
At the front of the audience hall, there are two thrones, which were originally the seats of the king and the queen, but these two thrones were requisitioned today.
There is a man standing in front of the throne on the left. The man has white hair and rose-red eyes. That is the person who sent the invitation-Samuel Allen Doyle.
On the throne to the right of Samuel, sat a person they were familiar with—Alice Black.
At this point, Wei Xi'an and the others have become very calm. They have been able to automatically replace all the "Alice" present with other people's faces, so when they see Alice sitting on the throne, there is no trace of anything. of vacillation.
"Are you...Alice's companions this time?"
Samuel noticed Wei Xian and his party standing outside the door. He walked down the platform as he said: "Alice will not go back with you. She has agreed to my request and wants to go with me. .”
"Why don't you just go back like this?"
Samuel's voice was low, but his voice was very penetrating. He just walked to the middle of the audience hall and his voice had already reached the ears of Wei Xi'an and his party.
The three members of Wei Xi'an's group looked at each other, and they all saw distrust in each other's eyes.There is nothing more to say. No matter what, they must find their "lost" companions.
What's more, when facing a pervert, you can't believe every word the pervert says!
——TBC——
Chapter 73 Reasons for persistence
Samuel's voice was not loud, but it was very penetrating.His words: "Why did you leave in the near future?" It reached the ears of Wei Xi'an and his party from a distance.
The footsteps of "pat, pat, pat" stopped. Vician raised his eyes and looked into the audience hall, and saw Samuel standing in the middle of the hall looking at them with an expression of half disgust and half sarcasm.
"There's no way Alice can make a deal with you. Besides, look at everything you've done, how can you make us believe you, a pervert!"
Ivan Bell said that her first impression of Samuel was already bad when the other party sent the invitation letter, but after she saw the "harem" created by Samuel, that "not bad" The impression of "terrible" suddenly changed to "terrible".
Therefore, Ivan Bell also had obvious hostility in her tone when she spoke, and the look she cast towards Samuel was also extremely unkind.
"Parliament dog, didn't your master teach you not to bark randomly indoors?"
Samuel said that he did not look at Ivan Bell, but his words had a very clear direction.
When Ivan Bell heard Samuel slandering her so much, she suddenly felt the anger in her body burning.The sickle, which was much taller than a man, was held in Ivan Bell's hand, and Ivan Bell looked like he wanted to skin Samuel alive.
But Caschia, who is also a member of the Ferry Association, reached out to stop Ivan Bell. He said to Samuel: "Mr. Samuel, we don't want to cause fearless trouble on this trip. We just want to know about Ali." What happened during Si's discussion with you to make..."
Having said this, Caschia paused, and his eyes glanced at the "Alices" standing on both sides of the audience hall, intentionally or unintentionally.After that, Caschia coughed a few times before continuing: "In addition, we also have the responsibility to ask you about everything that happened in Ander."
Caschia spoke for a long time, and Samuel surprisingly had the patience to listen to what Caschia had to say.
"We are interested in talking to you incompetent guys. After listening to your words, I have given up to the maximum extent. Now that the deal has been reached, Ander will naturally return it to you." Samuel said and was about to drive away the people. , he waved his hand, and the "Alices" around him started to move and began to gradually approach Wei Xi'an and his party.
"You seem to be very dissatisfied with the Parliament. Why don't you tell me why?"
Wei Xi'an, who had been silent until now, finally made a move. He walked directly in front of Samuel and asked the man who was half a head taller than him.
Samuel looked up and down at Vician who was standing in front of him, and then he showed a playful smile and signaled his two companions to Vician.
"Haha... you should ask your companions. They know best what the association has done. They don't judge those who should be judged, and they don't save those who should be saved. What about companions? Don't you think they Is it hypocritical?”
Samuel looked directly at Vician when he said, "Don't judge when it's time to judge." Not only that, he also gestured to Vician at the end of the sentence, "Right, Lancas."
Wei Xi'an was stunned for a moment, and then he dug out the memory from the past from the bottom of his brain. That memory was about a "vengeful ghost" who sacrificed his hometown.
"Isn't your revenge over?" Wei Xi'an frowned and asked coldly.
"Ha, I'm not as easy to fool as you. My revenge is far from over. I want to take back everything I lost!" Samuel looked extremely indignant. His originally gentle demeanor It had been forgotten by him, and there was resentment between his brows.
This sudden situation made both Ivan Bell and Caschia confused. They had no idea that Vician knew Samuel, so they all had expressions of "You actually know him" on their faces. .
"..." Vician was silent. He took a step back, but still stood between Samuel and his companions.
"You can't stop me."
"I think so, but we still have to take Alice back. The person you are looking for is not her, Samuel. The person you are looking for has been dead for almost 40 years."
Vishian and Samuel began to talk as if no one was watching. The atmosphere at the beginning of their conversation could be called harmonious.But after a moment, Vician seemed to have said something he shouldn't have said, successfully making Samuel angry.
"Shut up! She's not dead! She's right there. You should know best what kind of existence Alice is now!"
