Oracle of Terra

The red-haired Luper, who was also hiding in the dark, drew out her dagger and looked at the strange red light in the tall buildings that was completely different from the salute, and then her task force members began to disperse in this way.

"This is Lyudmila, start chasing."

The assassins of Syracuse fled into the mist.

And those black shadows who are about to move seem to have noticed that apart from the fiery atmosphere of the urban area, other parts of the city are restless under the brilliance.

But when the black crow feathers fell in front of his eyes, the ferocious blade was stretched out from the filled smoke.

Under the bright lights of Sochi citizens full of laughter, the silent bloody killing, accompanied by the raising of the baton behind the stage, also opened the curtain of the stage. The grand performance will be accompanied by the roar of salutes, Cover some of the sins and impurities under that brilliance.

The purple incantation arrows shot towards the assassins carrying explosives, piercing through their throats, and the black ice crystals wrapped them, making it impossible for those origin stone explosives to bloom the ferocious flame flowers.

Surrounding, chasing, the assassins racked their brains to rush out of the deep alley and vent their power towards the trouble, but they turned around, but under the influence of the black crow feathers, they circled back and forth in the deep alley.

But, that's just...Chapter 1 of this dance.

577. Curtain Call

"Doctor, I don't think this is a good decision. The risk of letting Lucien perform on stage is really..."

"Complain and talk to Telles. It's useless to tell me. He is the one who asked the operator's puppet to appear on the stage, and this stage is not for performance."

"Even so....."

The handsome-looking young Phaedia frowned. As a member of the notorious Scarlet Troupe, he was terrified and terrified of encountering the former 'Blood Diamond' in this company in Rhode Island. After all, it was rare to escape from there, but he never thought that the nightmare was following him. Although he asked many times, it seemed that Lucian did not come to Rhodes Island for him, but what was his purpose?

Mu Luo wanted to say something, but looking at Lucifer's calm eyes, she felt a little hard to say. The past of the Scarlet Troupe is not something that can be used as a topic of conversation.

"Of course, maybe you can consider the situation where the puppet will not cause problems."

"You know?"

Listening to Lucifer's casual words, Mu Luo was a little surprised.

"I don't know what you mean by 'know', but Telles and I talked about the puppet, which is what you call Lucien. The method is brainwashing, and the specific manifestation is that he often wanders outside in ways that he doesn’t know. After observing it a few times, Telles told me that he would borrow him for a few days.”

"Gudu..."

Thinking of the prestige of "Blood Diamond" in the past, Mu Luo couldn't help thinking about who this Mr. Telles was. After all, Lucian was the most feared killer in the troupe, but the doctor said that he had observed it for a few days. Lucian?

"Okay, okay, student Puppet Shadow, are you thinking of performing on stage?"

"I don't think it's a problem, but Mr. Telles, the costumes you prepared make people feel a bit nasty."

The puppet tugged at the somewhat tight neckline and watched Telles hand it over. The mask engraved with strange patterns and the blade full of rust and blood were really not like weapons that could be used.

He is wearing a slim-fit tuxedo, red and black, with patterns reminiscent of butterflies, but what he will play on stage is not a glorious role, but a murderer.

"Really? I think this outfit has a lot of atmosphere, and it's a perfect configuration for those rats who are going to dance with you next."

Lucian's spiritual influence is not a difficult problem for Telles, but he himself is somewhat distorted and abnormal. The brainwashing is just amplified. Fortunately, he has his own pillars and spiritual benchmarks. Existence——that two-tailed kitten seemed odd to Telles.

Although I can't tell what kind of existence the cat called Christina is, it should be regarded as a friendly and cute kitten to most people, but as far as Telles is concerned, its cuteness cannot be controlled by Feel it yourself.

The kitten didn't like him very much.

"As long as you are happy."

Putting on the mask that Telles gave him, the cold feeling made the puppet take a deep breath. He felt unusually calm and peaceful. After the ore disease was suppressed, his throat returned to normal, but Even so, he still didn't want to leave Rhodes Island after finishing the treatment, because this place is a good place. Miss Christina likes it very much, and he likes it too. Les's attending physician gave him treatment.

He felt that his spirit seemed to be much better.

"The things you taught, I hope that kid Yinuo can play well."

"He's very talented, sir."

Thinking of his 'student', a slight curvature appeared on Puppet Shadow's face under the mask.

I didn't expect that he would teach people to perform one day, which is really surprising.

For some reason, under this special mask, he felt a little elevated.

"Meow~"

"Ah, I understand, Miss Christina, I need to calm myself, to calm my thoughts."

A bloody shadow flashed in his mind, and the eyes of the puppet became colder. Under Telles's smiling expression, the dangerous servant walked into his stage like this - a dark place full of smoke and shadows. in the alley.

[Lyudmila, prepare to evacuate. 】

"learn."

Hearing the officer's voice, the red-haired girl Luper felt a surge of joy, and she also understood that her duties ended here. As the captain of the scouting unit of the Sochi contingent, she never thought of going beyond her officer's command. Command, but for some reason, the instinct honed under the command of the teacher made her feel the danger coming from behind.

She remembered that direction, it should be controlled by them, right?

"Captain, should we go?"

Ethan's voice brought Lyudmila back to her senses.

"Ah...um."

The red-haired girl left the smoke she had spread, and took a last look at the mice in the smoke who were teased by the feathers emitting strange lights, and shook her head helplessly. Sometimes she really felt that the city's defenses were a little scary up.

"Damn..."

From Victoria, from the Military Council, from the Gorefiend Maharaja, these lurkers who use the power of flesh and blood mutation, and the taboo of spells, fell into the lost like ghosts hitting the wall, and their scarlet eyes were only left Anxiety and disgust.

The squirming granulation on their faces shows their desire. Since sneaking in, they have not been able to find any chance to eat. The changes in flesh and blood make them more eager for blood and flesh offerings than ordinary blood demons, although they can also use other substitutes. However, as the noble Night Clan, their abilities as spies and lurkers are also top-notch. Apart from this small weakness of longing, they can be completely another person, but now, they are stuck in a trap that they cannot get out of. In prison.

"Master Fried, this is an ancient spell."

"I know!"

Even under the command of the Gorefiend Maharaja, they are the best group of Gorefiends. Fried's outstanding ability makes him confident that he can act wantonly in the hinterland of any big country, but now, he only feels puzzled, today's actions come from that According to the request of a traitor who cooperates with the Maharaja, to destroy the alliance mission between the envoys and Ursus, they have prepared high-performance origin stone explosives and blood demon assassins who can hide their appearance and aura. But before everything started, they were forced into a bad situation.

"Is that the young imp of the Banshee Queen?"

Known as the most talented conjurer in the history of the royal courts, those black crow feathers could not help but remind him of the ancient existence that once supported Theresia.

Thinking of this, Fried's forehead was covered with cold sweat. If it was that existence, the Maharaja would not be able to easily resist it. Fortunately, that existence would not easily leave Kazdel's sealed place, otherwise the consequences would be huge Calamity itself.

"?~?~"

"This is?"

Gorefiend's excellent five senses allowed him to hear a melodious tune, like a prelude before the opening of a stage play. At this moment, on the stage welcoming the envoys, the handsome Li Boli boy calmed down his inner tension and began A ballad was sung.

The Phidia boy on the high platform watched all this through the binoculars, and the radio broadcasters around him cheered and shouted from the five big and three rough soldiers at the scene.

"My sad prisoner who knows no fate, a lost cub who doesn't know the knell has sounded..."

A penetrating and elegant male voice came from the smoke, but the Gorefiend Assassins only felt a little smug, as if the instant satisfaction from sucking blood filled the computer.

"Wait for my hands to heal your scars, wait for my sharp blade...to pierce your chest."

The blood-stained short arms stretched out from the shadows, and these gorefiend assassins who were about to move kept their happy expressions and were pierced through their chests, and the blue-black pollution began to spread from the tip of the dagger to the flesh and blood that began to heal itself.

"who?!"

Fried was confused by the singing for a moment, but he woke up immediately, and a dark shadow appeared there holding a rusty dagger.

"Secretly...sad and ignorant prisoners, your escape is like a chickadee with its feet shackled in shackles, crawling on the ground and struggling sadly."

The mask carved with weird patterns came into view. When Fried drew out his rapier to fight back, he felt his body was extremely stiff and his thoughts became extremely slow.

"what?"

The body, which should have been under the free control of flesh and blood, also made a mistake in the transmission of orders at this moment.

"Like... a marionette."

Bloody butterflies bloomed on his arms, the corroded blade sank into his body, the mutation and division of flesh and blood stagnated at this moment, he felt like a stone.

"Sing! Sing! My poor prisoner! Lament for your unfreedom! Applause for your insensitivity!"

The sound was like a hammer penetrating the brain, hitting the brains of Freed and the Gorefiend assassins heavily, their limbs began to turn into stones, their eyes were dull and cloudy, just like those in a puppet show. Like marionettes, they just maintained the process of flesh and blood mutation, strange postures, like an evil dark art, fell into silence during the dance of the performers, and were deprived of the ability to think by the singing.

It's like being robbed of sound and thinking by the gorgeous performance, and captured the hearts of the audience.

"........................."

While the puppet shadow kept the curtain-calling posture, Yelena led the snow monsters to the scene, looked at the strange-shaped 'blood demons' whose fair skin had turned blue-black, and among those blood demons wearing a red and black tuxedo, A man wearing a weird mask.

"I said big sister, what kind of performance art is this made by Boss Telles?"

"Do you think that's Telles in the middle?"

[No, that's not me. 】

Yelena raised her eyebrows at the flat male voice that sounded on the communication channel.

"Then who is this fancy-dressed guy, enemy?"

[How come, this is an excellent actor, Eno's acting teacher. 】

"what?"

Yelena remembered Eno's rehearsal, and she took Sasha to watch it together. She remembered the so-called 'acting teacher' from Rhodes Island. cute black cat.

It seems that he was indeed correct in thinking that he was not easy.

[How do you feel, Puppet? 】

The voice from the headset made Puppet take off the weird mask.

"Unexpected effect, sir, although your taste still makes people feel a little strange, but it can make my voice only affect the object I specify, and not disturb other people on the street. It is a wonderful creation .”

[Here is a gift for you, a whole box, if it is broken, you can replace it, the most important thing is that it can isolate some mental effects, so that you will not sleepwalk in some strange time periods, and remember more Take medicine, the inhibitor I gave you can isolate the influence from afar for a long time, if you don't want to wake up one day and show up at someone's house with a bloody knife in your hand. 】

"I'll take your advice, doctor."

The puppet made a hair-removing gift to Yelena and the others, and the pattern on the black tricorn hat seemed to be a symbol of some kind of spell that Yelena had known before.

The black cat jumped onto Kuying's shoulder, amidst the surprised expressions of the snow monsters, he just disappeared into the shadows and disappeared into the alley, leaving behind a long and profound words.

"I'll leave it to you all next."

"Damn it, big sister, did we see a ghost?"

"It must be the origin stone skill, what are you shaking about, no matter how weird it is, it's not as scary as those inner guards who come out of nowhere."

Yelena kicked Young's ass, and the latter let out a whoop.

"In short, clean up these guys, Telles, what kind of thing is this on them?"

[Oh, my special petrified dagger, if the person stabbed has a strong self-healing ability, he will not die. Please transport it to the special prison on the second floor of the military area. The subsequent interrogation will be handed over to Mr. Captain. If you are interested, you can Go and see with the Yetis, your father knows what to do with these bloodfiends of the Flesh faction. 】

"Not interested in."

Yelena didn't have much interest in torture.

But her father is Sarkaz, who is still quite old Wendigo, she can indeed understand that her father has methods to deal with these ancient races.

[Here is Nine, we have closed the net here too, and it is not much different from what Mr. Lucifer expected. These blood demons are indeed in contact with those other mice. There are Colombians and wizards from Letania, which should be regarded as Great harvest. 】

【As expected of being my best friend at best, he is really capable, so the next thing is the situation of the bomb disposal team...】

Telles contacted the Mudrock team. Although these big guys are not suitable for the job of catching spies, they have learned a lot about bomb disposal from W.

"This is a construction worker. The Originium bomb on the side of the exhibition hall has been dismantled. It's enough to blow up the entire exhibition hall. Be good."

The members of the mudstone team code-named 'Construction Workers' looked at the pile of explosives in the cabinet with tut-tuts. Although the amount was large, the production techniques were too rough, and they, the 'bomb disposal experts' who were monks halfway through their careers, could dismantle them. relaxed and happy.

So far, with the end of the stage performance, the incoming danger was also methodically eliminated by the people of Sochi. Just when Telles felt that everything was coming to an end, a visit broke his peaceful life.

578. Happy People, Happy Soul

"Speaking of which, what will this child do in the future?"

"You can do whatever you want, whatever he likes."

The long-lost feeling of holding a child made Telles feel a little strange, but after all, it was his own son, and the feeling of holding it was much better than that of a crying little devil.

Samira recovered well after giving birth, thanks to some adjustments made to her by Telles. The former winter spirit princess still retains her former beauty, but maybe because of becoming a mother, With more charm of a married woman, Telles looked a little intently, at least the view from the back seemed to make people feel moved.

But compared to this, Telles cares more about...

"Why do you come to my house every now and then?"
