Chapter 224
Theo: "Mishuram seems to have been locked down completely. ”
"The staff of the theme park and the stores have also been evacuated. ”
Randy: "According to our original guess, they probably went to the wetlands. ”
"But now it seems clear that he has gone to Mishuram. ”
Lloyd: 'Ellie, didn't you get in touch with Miss Maria?'
"Well, I can't find her at all these days, and he seems to have been busy dealing with all kinds of aftermath since the destruction of the IBC building. ”
Randy: "That lady aside, is the possibility that Rykert and their hints be true?"
Theo: 'The real black hand that instructed the Red Constellation to attack Crosbell was not the Empire, but Mr. Dieter. ’
Lloyd sighed.
"Lloyd, you don't have to worry about my feelings. Ellie said, "Actually, I haven't been able to contact my grandfather since yesterday. ”
"According to Mr. Butler, my grandfather may have been placed under house arrest in the Orchid Tower. ”
"What. Lloyd said.
"This. Tio said.
Randy: "Have you completely exposed your villainous face?"
"If Mr. Dieter is really behind this series of events, all contradictions and doubts can be answered, and in this hypothesis, the Red Constellation and the Association are the wrongdoers and facilitators he has hired. ”
"And the demonized Valut, even DG may be a pawn used by him. Lloyd said.
"Even DG?" said Ellie.
"That's all there is to Valut, is Achim being used by him?" said Randy.
Theo: "How, though. ”
"Of course, the likelihood of a direct connection between them is low. Lloyd said: "Judging by Achim's words and deeds, it seems that there is no other person behind it. ”
"But it's possible that he's been being used by someone else without even realizing it. ”
Ellie: "Speaking of which, we still haven't been able to figure out who took Kia from the Tower of the Sun?"
Randy: 'And mixed her into the Black Auction's lots. ’
"If you think about it, if that thing was man-made, it would be impossible for ordinary people to do it. ”
"Unless it's a guy of the level of silver or a member of the association. ”
Lloyd's communication rang.
"Hello, I'm Lloyd from the Secret Service Support Section. ”
Jonah: 'Great, it's finally connected, I want Theo to hear it too, you can set it to loudspeaker mode.' ”
"Yes, Jonah, I see, set it up now. ”
"Jonah, what's going on?" said Theo.
"And ask what's going on! Oh no, there's a terrible monster lurking in Crossbell's channeling network. ”
"Monsters?"
Ellie: "What do you mean?"
"At first, I just found some strange data constructs at the edge of the network. ”
Jonah said, "Because it's all incomprehensible permutations, I thought it was just garbage." ”
"But upon further investigation, I found out that they actually evolved from the code used at the end. ”
Theo: "Is this some kind of trap set by the association?"
"No, judging by the date, it was almost five years ago, and I remember that Crosbell introduced the guide network from that time, right?"
Jonah said.
"Well, yes. Tio said, "So." ”
Ellie: "At that time, it was IBC that proposed the introduction of the Guiding Power Network, and because of this, IBC, which introduced the technology, had a deep relationship with the project. ”
"Even if I was familiar with all of it, I said. ”
"Hey, so Crossbell is now in the hands of the Society?"
"Jonah, what the hell is a monster?" Lloyd said.
"What problems can it cause?"
"This is still being analyzed. Jonah said.
"But it's definitely a huge system that can cover the entire guide network, and the second phase seems to be equipped with a realistic system that can be linked to it.
"What does that mean?" said Theo.
"Reality, that is, isn't it the world of the Guiding Network?" said Ellie.
"Well, the entire area of the underground space is under the control of this system, and it is linked to the Orchid Tower, and even to the Mishiram side. Jonah said.
"Mishuram?" Lloyd said.
"I actually hear the name now. ," Randy said.
"Anyway, I'll be in touch with you after the analysis, I don't know what you're doing, but you have to be careful. Jonah said.
Randy: 'There's too much evidence for that, I guess so. ’
Theo: "I don't know exactly what purpose it was built for, but in addition to Aipu and the Society, there seems to be only one force that can build that kind of huge system. ”
Let's go to Mishuram for now, Kia, Mr. Arios, and the answers to all our questions are waiting for us. “”
Subsequently, Lloyd and the others came to Misuram.
There was a deathly silence, no longer there, with a hint of eerieness.
And the bell rang throughout Mishuram.
"The bells, the bell from the top of the City of Mirrors?" said Lloyd.
"Well, that's right. "Ellie.
"Even the surface of the water is faintly glowing, can Tio feel anything?" said Randy.
Theo: "The aura of spiritual pressure seems to be constantly improving, and this feeling is coming from the direction of the theme park inside. ”
"Yes. Lloyd said, "It seems that it is very likely that Mr. Arios took Kia there." ”
Ellie: 'Well, let's go over and see. ’
Lloyd and the others rush to the theme park's Mirror City.
As soon as I entered the theme park, I encountered a phantom beast that guarded the door.
"There's a phantom beast here!There's no time, hit it now!" Lloyd said.
After defeating, it disappears immediately.
"Tsk, why are phantom beasts in such a place?" said Randy.
Theo: "I don't know, but I think it has something to do with the rise in spiritual pressure here." ”
"In addition, it may have something to do with the bells, just like the Tower of the Moon. Ellie said.
"Kia and Mr. Arios are in this kind of place. "Lloyd said, 'Anyway, let's get in. ’
Lloyd and the others found that all the flowers and plants in the theme park were gone, and they were replaced by the Wisdom Grass.
"Missy's parterre!" said Theo, "unforgivable." ”
At this time, the phantom beast appeared again.
"That's what I've seen before. Ellie said.
"Kill it. Randy said.
"We've met the Affiliate Clown in this place before, and if you think about it, Kia happened to be in front of it at the time. ”
"Well, it looks like there's somewhere ahead. Ellie said.
"It's useless to think about it, we'll just have to go and have a look." ”
Theo: "Well, let's go. ”
Came to the gate of the City of Mirrors, and found that this beautiful city was extremely strange.
"I thought it was just a city that represented the characteristics of a theme park. Randy said.
Theo: "Now I can clearly sense that this castle is emitting a powerful spiritual pressure, and it should be from the top. ”
Ellie: "I've heard that this castle was built at her suggestion. ”
"Excuse me?"
"Anyway, let's go in, and if we're lucky, maybe we can go up to the top floor. ”
At this time, the phantom beast appeared again.
"Looks like it's trying to defend the castle, let's take it down!"
The battle was on the verge of breaking out, and it was not long before Lloyd and the others were defeated.
The group continued to move forward and entered the City of Mirrors, where particles of light flew throughout the castle.
Ellie: "What are these lights?"
"The spiritual particles seem to be constantly floating upwards. Tio said.
"The front entrance was sealed, but new entrances appeared to the left and right. ”
"I've been here a few times before, and here's this design, is that what she did?" said Ellie.
"There was a strange sound coming from the depths, everyone be careful. Tio said.
"Anyway, we have to go to the top, we have to ask Mr. Arios about his purpose and take back Kia!"
Lloyd and the others made a lot of effort and came to the top floor.
Lloyd;"It's finally here. ”
'Well, it's at the top, but Kia and Mister Arios aren't there?' said Ellie.
Theo: "When I came here, I noticed that there seemed to be a secret space hidden in that large glowing mirror. ”
"Really?"
"Yes, quite a large number of energy vortex spirit sons are gathered there, I'm afraid that's the end. Tio said.
"I see. Ellie said.
"Looks like we're finally catching up." ”
"yes. "Lloyd said, ''Cheer up, everyone, we will take back Kia.
The crowd began to investigate the mirror, and particles that emitted a faint glow were being sucked into the mirror.
Lloyd held out his hand.
"Looks like we can go in!"
"Let's go, we can't keep Kia waiting!"
After entering, Lloyd and the others were surprised.
"This is here?" said Theo.
Ellie: "Why?"
It was an altar, and Kia was sitting on top of it.
In addition to this, both Arius and Mary stood in front of the altar.
"Kia, Mr. Arrios. Lloyd said.
Ellie: "Maria?"
"Lloyd, everyone. Kia said.
"Hehe, you've finally done it. Maria said.
"Why, Bell? Why are you in this place. Ellie said.
"Hehe, the answer is very simple, as a descendant of the Coollois family, who inherited the great treasure, I am just fulfilling my duty. ”
"Great treasure?" Lloyd said.
"Is it similar to the Ring of Light that appeared in Liber?" said Theo.
"Hehe, now that you know, it's easy to explain, in the distant past, the goddess gave the seven supreme treasures to mankind
One of the treasures was inherited by my ancestors, but it only lasted for 12OO years. ”
"I don't understand what you're talking about. ”
"Hehe, due to an unfortunate accident, we have lost the treasure bestowed by the Goddess. Maria said.
As a result, the ancestors of the Cullois family were determined to recover the treasure no matter what, and they embarked on an astonishing and ambitious plan. ”
Mary said, 'Eventually we built a huge structure under Crossbell. ’
Ellie: 'What's that?'
Theo: "Is it taking advantage of the incomprehensible system of the Guiding Force?"
"Well, the fusion of modern channeling technology and the alchemy of the Kulois family gave birth to the science of magic. ”
1 "On the basis of touching science, we finally succeeded in constructing that extremely amazing gigantic formula. ”
"Built with the science of magic. Tio said.
"And alchemy. Ellie said.
"yes, I see. "Lloyd: "The group of alchemists who built the Star Tower and provided the technology to the DG is your family?"
Randy: "What?"
Theo: "If you think about it, all your doubts will be solved. ”
"So the cradle where Kia sleeps?" said Ellie.
"Hehe, of course that's what we provide. "Mary said: 'Give them the power of giving them the object of their faith, so that they will be happy.'" ’
"In that case, then DG is clearly secretly induced by your family to achieve their goals?" Lloyd said.
"Well, it's just our puppet. Maria said.
"Hmph, but they didn't notice it at all, hehe, you already have a rough understanding of the background of the matter, right?"
Maria said, "Oh, by the way, Mr. Arios has nothing to do with our family. ”
"He is just a reliable facilitator who endorses our program. ”
"Mr. Arios?" said Lloyd,
"Are you serious? You'd approve of such a ridiculous delusion. ”
"Oh, ridiculous delusions, and I agree with you if it were to be said simply. ”
Arios said.
"Whew, that's too much. Maria said.
"But now that they have the power to change the situation. ”
Arios first said, "Even if it is an illusory delusion, I am willing to help, even against the will of the goddess." ”
Ellie: "Why. ”
"Why?"
"To be honest, I can't sort it out for a moment when I suddenly hear so many amazing facts, but there is one thing I must say, I will never allow delusions to be rolled up in Kia!
"I don't know how they instigated you, but Kia has always been Kia, right? I'm not going to let you sit there with a sad face!"
Kia: 'Lloyd. ’
"Hehe, Kia, Lloyd has already said that, what are you going to do?" said Maria.
Kia was silent.
"Kia, what's wrong with you?" said Lloyd.
Randy: "What is there to hesitate about, she threw herself into Lloyd's arms as she usually does." ”
"That's the most reassuring thing to do, right?"
"Randy. Kia said.
"yes, maybe you have a lot on your mind. Ellie said.
"But I don't think there's anything more important than that. Tio said.
"Ellie, Theo. Kia closed her eyes, as if she were struggling.
"Hehe, it seems to be very lively. "At this time, three projections suddenly appeared.
It is the three men of the association, the clown, the doctor, the seventh column.
Ellie: "The Snake of the Body." ”
Theo: 'It's really inseparable from them. ’
