288. Dickinson
The atmosphere is getting more and more solemn.
No need to fear?
It was like a threat, and the cube was trying to suggest that they were scared now, but Peloris felt it, and the cube said it in a very strange tone, as if he was completely subservient to the control of the happy illness at this moment, and said it with a new personality.
One of Hearts reached out and pressed his companion back behind him:
"Ignore him, but you are not allowed to leave the poker kingdom no matter what. ”
Fanny looked anxious:
"But if we can't get the deal done on time, we're likely to go bankrupt. ”
One of Hearts says:
"But you're dying of starvation before you enter the city, isn't it better to think about it this way, and it's a good thing that you've at least gone from dying right away to dying likely. ”
One of hearts smiled:
"Come to think of it, you should be happy about it now. ”
Peloris looked at the smile of the One of Hearts and asked:
"Are you happy now?"
One of the hearts hurriedly returned to seriousness:
"No, now turn around for me, and get back into the city, before the cube cuts off your heads. ”
Hearing this, they also knew that it would be difficult to make any progress if they stayed any longer, so they had to turn around and go back to the empty street.
Antotica asked:
"What now?"
Peloris bit her finger:
"Let me think about it, there will always be a way. ”
Fanny observed Inge and Antotica, and although they were a little unresponsive and uneventful, they were somewhat aware of the oddity.
Hara's unusual composure, and the fact that she seemed to know a lot more about Lower Wharton than they did, had just spoken to the guards about the daughters of a big man.
Peloris was secretive about the huge backpack she shouldn't have been able to bear, and the way she could get the money, food, and water.
Even Inge had a memory disorder, and although Fanny was very familiar with Inge, and the two had been playmates since childhood, she didn't dare to say that she really knew her friend at this moment.
So it seems that there is nothing wrong with just herself and Antotica, but is that really the case? What if Antotica is just well hidden?
Maybe all of them were monsters except herself, maybe they were already dropped in the café? Maybe she's in the devil's lair right now!
Fanny suddenly took two steps back in a panic, and in her eyes several people around her had been transformed into evil monsters disguised as humans, with hard scales under the delicate skin, white nails were actually sharp claws, and sharp teeth were hidden in the pink lips.
Calm down, Fanny, these are just illusions of fear, you see, could such a lovely girl as Hola be some kind of monster in human skin? Although Peloris was cold at school, her family also had a good reputation in England, not to mention Inge, Fanny had known her since she was five years old.
Antotica's father was also an earl, and if the people around him were evil monsters, then Inlans would probably have fallen into demonic territory.
But the human empire was still thriving, the sun was still shining above the ground, and there was no fragment of memory in the way she came to this place, and it didn't feel like a dream journey caused by hallucinogens.
Fanny used her intellect to fight madness.
It is clear that the entire continent is ruled by humans, and there is a relatively resource-poor area underground, so it can be judged that if there was a conflict between the two, it was the humans on the ground who won after all.
So in this way, the power on the ground is much greater than that underground, and although she had never seen any mysterious magic in her previous life, judging from the way they came to Lower Wharton, there were already legends about this place, and there was magic in this place.
The victorious earthly humans must have mastered mystical powers such as magic that were more efficient or powerful than Wharton's, and this power was likely concentrated in the armies of the state, or in the hands of the ruling class, otherwise the social structure would not be as stable as it is now.
Neither Inge nor Antotica, who were both the Count's daughters, knew the existence of this power, so it was likely that the identity of a sixteen-year-old Count's daughter was not enough to know the secret.
It is not surprising that the higher-ranking Peloris has this power, as her family has existed since the time of King Arthur's conquest.
So she is a descendant of an aristocracy, and through family inheritance or teaching, she has mastered mysterious powers, but because this power cannot be exposed at will in the earthly world, she did not tell us.
However, the huge backpack that Peloris carried and the supplies she was able to obtain confirmed that she indeed possessed a power that was very powerful for ordinary people.
From here, it can also be seen that Peloris does not intend to deliberately hide her ability, and the most important thing now is how powerful her ability is?
Although it surpasses ordinary people, in the world of mysterious powers, there is also a distinction between the power levels of different people, right? For example, the King of Hearts and the Twin Ghosts must be stronger than the guards on the street, and now the focus is on how powerful Peloris is?
Will it be enough to take them out of the city, or will it be difficult to even defeat the guards?
And thinking about it this way, Hora's identity is also much clearer.
The daughter of an inward investor?
Presumably, the investor is just her father's disguised identity.
She and her father are supposed to be a pair of folk occult power holders, so she is also very calm here, but I want to compare.
As a folk mystical person, Hora should be much weaker than Peloris, who is the heir to the ruling class.
That's why she didn't use the mystical ability, but she was at least able to sense that Peloris was her own kind, which is why she was so calm.
She knew Peloris would protect them.
And Inge most likely doesn't have any mysterious abilities like Antotica, so she must have been affected by some mysterious force on the ground, which caused her to propose to let us recite that spell from nowhere, causing us to be trapped here.
This is the conclusion that Fanny took nearly a minute to come to, and this conclusion is not absolutely correct, but it is the most likely to be extrapolated by the information available, and there are many circumstances that can explain the current situation.
For example, Peloris is actually an evil monster turned into a human, so she has great power, and Hola is actually a native of Lower Wharton, and her status is noble, so she is very calm in her hometown.
She can come up with hundreds of such conjectures a minute, but all guesses that are not supported by evidence are meaningless, and conjectures that cannot be proved and falsified can be regarded as non-existent in science.
And now the situation is clear.
Inge may still have problems and need to be on guard, and Hora may be a mystical ability, so she has to be on guard to a certain extent, after all, her father is not necessarily a kind mystical ability, but he can still be trusted.
And Peloris, as a descendant of the nobility, is a mysterious ability that can be absolutely trusted, her interests should highly overlap with them, and she can rely on her to get out of here alive.
This is Fanny Dickinson's escape route.
