"You're not afraid of me?"

Tang Qi's reaction obviously confused the old woman.

This was a very different scene from the scene that had happened many times before, and the young man in front of him did not look like he was stunned, neither crying, nor peeing his pants, or being so frightened that he was incoherent, he just looked at himself with pity and sympathy.

Well?

The old woman's rotten eyeballs suddenly turned a few times, her gaze was completely focused on Tang Qi, the stench and the terrifying black gas were released at the same time, and a pair of thin claw-like palms grabbed Tang Qi's arms, and roared, "Who are you?"

Boom!

Sympathy is sympathy, the old woman was still bounced away by the "guardian charm" that suddenly appeared on Tang Qi's body, and the old woman, who had mutated into some kind of "zombie"-like creature, flew straight upside down.

But this didn't affect her, after she heard Tang Qi's words spit out in the next moment, she flew back with great excitement.

"Charlotte, my guide, the source of my guilt, the source of my iniquity...... I'm sorry for my love, I've dedicated my life to Ellia, if I could have met you sooner, ah no, it's all ...... fate - Ralph. ”

The familiar tone of voice made the old woman realize something in an instant.

She used her hands and feet together, climbed from the wall to the dome, and then landed in front of Tang Qi with a bang, no longer stretched out her hand in the face of the "guardian spell", and stood excitedly, her rotten eyes flashed with anticipation and hope.

The old woman said eagerly, "You know Ralph, don't you, where is he? Is he coming? I want to see him, quick, take me to him." ”

Because of the old woman's excitement, everything in the side hall was decaying at an accelerated rate, and the terrifying black gas overflowed from her body like a tide, so that Tang Qi couldn't help but be surprised that the pollution and radiation spread around the center here.

In the originally quiet castle, especially in the rear, there were some terrifying movements, like the roars of monsters, the wails of ghosts, and the murmurs of chaos.

Seeing this change, Tang Qi's brows furrowed, and he had to swallow back the words that came to his lips.

He wanted to tell "Charlotte" that Ralph was dead.

But it is almost foreseeable that once this cruel truth is told, Charlotte, who has become "weird" in front of her, will explode directly, and her aura will completely merge with this castle, so to speak, she is the core of this "polluted place".

In Tang Qi's perception, there were a lot of weirdness behind the castle, and in terms of aura, many of them were stronger than Charlotte.

But they are all guests who are attracted to it.

Once Charlotte rioted, they had to be driven.

Again, Tang Qi sighed in his heart: Scumbag, what a sin.

The reason why the scene in front of me appeared was naturally related to Ralph.

"When Ralph passed through the city of Berkshire, because he was handsome and very personable, and because of the aura of a graduate of Carthage University, he was invited by the owner and his wife of Fog Castle to be a guest, and that year, Charlotte was just fifteen years old, and the two met because of a heart-pounding song, and soon fell in love. ”

Although there is a slight age gap between the two, the young Ralph does have an extraordinary charm, and Charlotte's parents acquiesce in their relationship, until a small adventure happens, Charlotte and Ralph, strayed into a painting. ”

"That's an entrance, an entrance to the town of Deborah. ”

So, it's an adventure story of loving the new and hating the old. ”

Narrated from Leah, in her childhood, it was a typical delusional story from her crazy father.

But at this time, the scene in front of me made the story extraordinarily real.

"When Ralph met Charlotte, the spirit tide never returned, just like the Witch of Doom who could only choose to smuggle in, the entrance here is very hidden and ordinary people know that they cannot enter, except for the chosen one like Ralph. ”

In a moment's time, Tang Qi felt the atmosphere of more and more riots in front of him, as well as the shaking castle, and the strange army behind seemed to be surging towards this place because of Charlotte's mood changes.

In the past, those male caregivers who came for the "inheritance" probably died because of this, the difference is probably that they died on the first day because they angered Charlotte, or after a few days of forced care, they angered Charlotte while escaping and died.

Once Charlotte, she was a sweet, kind girl.

Now she is a "weird" controlled by obsession.

That "entrance" was also mutated because of her obsession, attracting a large number of strange and fierce spirits, polluting this place into a purgatory-like place.

"It's time, relief. ”

When this thought came to mind, Tang Qi's body suddenly began to change.

A five-stage "Crimson", plus a "Illusion Spell" superimposed.

In the brilliant light, in Charlotte's rotten eyes, a picture appeared in disbelief:

A young figure, which had appeared in her dreams constantly, stood in front of her very really.

This is a handsome and energetic young man wearing a jacket, a white shirt, and short soft, fluffy brown-black hair, and he is carrying an old suitcase that seems to have been popular decades ago.

He smiled brightly at her, just like the first sight of that sunny afternoon decades ago.

Surrounded by golden flames, Charlotte fell into a daze, with a foolish smile, the magic of the furnace was burning her body little by little, but she didn't realize it, her thin paws clutched a picture frame, inside which was a withered yellow photograph.

Charlotte and Ralph, the only photo of the two, fifteen-year-old girls, standing on tiptoe, embracing a handsome young man.

Tang Qi sighed and walked past her and towards the back of the castle.

As soon as I turned the side hall, I stepped into a dark, wide passageway, where dozens of "weird" heads of all kinds were huddled together, excited by the smell of fresh humans, including ghosts, monsters, fallen humans, or terrifying unidentified beings.

Behind them, at the end, there was a wall.

There is a painting hanging on the wall, according to Leah's description, or Ralph's paraphrase, its original appearance, inside the painting is a grotesque, but beautiful fantasy world, very unreal, like a carefree fairy tale world.

But now, in the painting, there is only one woman.

Charlotte, or rather Charlotte, her body and limbs were twisted and rotten, a head was huge, her eyes were full of obsession, her mouth was wide open, and a familiar figure stood inside.

Ralph, the smiling Ralph.

"Whew"

Framed, flames emerge without warning.

Charlotte, who was already distorted, began to melt, and Ralph, who was standing in her mouth, suddenly turned from laughing to wailing and screaming, and his body melted little by little, turning into crimson blood, dripping down, flowing into a stream, flowing into Charlotte's mouth.

Charlotte's gaping mouth seemed to be about to close.

Seeing this scene, Tang Qi took a breath, and the furnace magic that was already surging in his body came out without hindrance, and in an instant, a furnace-like figure crashed into the passage, and the dozens of monsters and dozens of fuels could not hinder his progress for even a second.

The golden points of light flew together with the black ashes, and a figure jumped up, and when it touched the strange painting, it was like a "stone", falling into the water, and when the ripples came out, he was completely submerged in the water.

The frame burns down, the scroll inside lifts, and everything melts.

Crimson blood, terrible black, twisted obsession...... In the end, they all melted away in the golden flames.
