Chapter 22: The Corpse
Cersie: "(Hearing the howl, seeing the surveillance footage of the ceremony through the 'witchcraft puppet')... Wait a minute. —shouted
Dent: "(without stopping)..."—disappears around the corner
Cersie: "This guy is acting quite really... (Turns into a wisp of green smoke and quickly catches up with [Dent]) to stop. ”
Dent: "(Ignores)..."
Cersie: "I said it, stop!" - "Green Smoke" entangled [Dent]
Dent: "(Forced to stop)... What are you doing!?"
Cersie: "You don't have to run away, your 'mascot' won't blow up." —Returning to human form
Dent: "Are you sure?"
Cersie: "I'm sure, it's just a corpse mutation, and it scares you." ”
Dent: "It's just a corpse... Do you think Robin is still saved?"
Cersie: "Well, although the ritual went awry, the transformation did not completely fail, and it can be saved. ”
Dent: "Is this your expertise?"
Cersey: "Yes. ”
Dent: "(On a slight scale)... Okay, you come back to the communication room with me. —make a decision
Cersey: "I'm the only one going back with you?"
Dent: "yes, it's not very clear right now, and I can't gamble more people's lives. ”
Cersey: "Why don't you know?
Dent: "I know you're a great witch, but your professional opinion is just one side of the story, and I, as a decision-maker, can't be biased, I have to investigate deeply and understand the real situation before making a decision." —interrupted
Cersie: "To put it mildly, you obviously want to take all the credit after the success of the deed." ”
Dent: "You said I wanted to take credit? The staff in the workshop are all your subordinates, and you can directly order them to come back, but you just don't give this order, you have to ask me to open this mouth, obviously trying to blame me afterwards." - Rhetorical ridicule
Cersey: "I don't have anything to say if you think so, but... Do you really think so?"
Dent: "What do you say?" - turns around, and goes back the way you came
Cersie: "(snickering)..." - follow
The two returned to the communications room
Dent: "(Sitting) ... Debriefing. ”
Qian Nawei (witchcraft puppet): "All staff have been evacuated from the workshop, except for the personnel in the communication room. ”
Dent: "Where's [Robin]?"
Chanawe (sorcery puppet): "[Robin] has left the Pool of Resurrection and is wandering around the workshop. ”
Dent: "Wandering around, you didn't lock down the workshop or lock down [Robin]?"
Qian Nawei (witchcraft puppet): "The order you gave us when you left was 'stay here to command, ensure that the evacuation work is carried out in a timely, safe and orderly manner, and seal off the workshop after all the personnel have withdrawn'..."
Dent: "Latest Order: Immediate Lockdown of the Workshop!"
Witchcraft Dolls: "It's... The workshop is now under complete lockdown. ”
Chanawei (sorcery puppet): "Robin locked." "—Bring up the surveillance screen
In the surveillance footage, Robin is trapped in a corridor
Dent: "(Watch)... Zoom in closer. ”
Chanawe (witchcraft puppet): "Yes. - Adjust the focus of the surveillance camera
◆
Inside the hallway
Robin: "..."—Navigating the hallways in search of an exit
"Zizi~" - a voice came from the roof
Robin: "(Looks up suddenly, a pair of red eyes staring at the surveillance)..." - the next second, the surveillance screen turns black
◆
Communication room
Cersie: "The sound of the camera focusing was heard by the 'mascot' spicy~"
Dent: "Don't just talk about it... Tell me your professional judgment. ”
Cersie: "It's a "corpse mutiny", it's very serious, it can be saved, and it's very expensive. —the butcher's eyes looking at the fat pig
Dent: "Money is not an issue. ”
Cersie: "Then there's no problem. —snaps her fingers at the witchcraft dolls
Witchcraft Puppets: "(One-pass operation)..." - In the surveillance footage, the blockade at one end of the hallway is opened
Chanawe (witchcraft puppet): "The road has been opened. ”
Cersey: "(to [Dent])... I'll go back as soon as I go. "—Full of confidence
Dent: "Watch out for capsizing in the gutter." ”
Cersie: "(stunned)... I know. —Leave the communications room
Half a minute later, in the surveillance footage, [Cersei] and [Robin] meet in the hallway
Dent: "(Gets up from the commanding seat)..." - walked to the corner seat and took a seat, ready for the impact
Five seconds later
"Boom" - a humanoid object broke through the wall and smashed into the command seat, not only smashing the seat, but also smashing a hole in the ground
Robin: "Uh~~" - struggles to get up from the pit, but gets stuck on the floor
Dent: "(straightens up and rushes into the holes in the wall)... You want to kill me!?"
Cersie: "(through the hole)... How is it possible, didn't you move ahead of time?"
Dent: "What if I don't move away?"
Cersie: "Then I'm not going to let your mascot smash it into there." Don't forget, the 'people' here are my 'eyes and ears'... (snapping his fingers, the witchcraft puppets rush up and press [Robin] to the ground) You haven't paid yet, how can I let you die.。 ”
Robin: "Uh~~" - struggle
Witchcraft puppets: "..."—'Someone' is constantly hurting, but no 'person' lets go
Dent: "[Robin] has been transformed, and he has a lot of strength..."
Cersie: "Don't worry, it'll be over soon." —Casting spells
Robin: "Uh~ (The spell has an immediate effect)..."—gradually calmed down, and the red in his eyes slowly faded, becoming soft and rational
Dent: "Very skillful, [Cersey], to get [Robin] back so quickly." - Compliment
Cersie: "Of course, I have signed a contract with the goddess of the underworld [Hecate], and the dead are my bargaining chips, and I have the final say on who lives or dies." —smug
Robin: "It's too inflated..." - whispers
Cersey: "What did you say?"
Dent: "..."—quietly backs away
Robin: "It's just a dog, when did you start to get the illusion that you're your master?" - looked up, sneering
Cersie: "That's what you said to your lifesaver after "revival"?" - snapped her fingers
Witchcraft dolls: "..."—fist slaps in turn
Robin: "..."—unaware
Cersie: "Hmph, I'm so angry that I forgot that you don't feel pain now..."
Robin: "You're going to rip my soul apart?"
Cersey: "!?"
Robin: "Did I say yes?"
Cersie: "How are you..."—suddenly she feels that something is wrong
Robin: "Do you remember the last part of the contract?" "The name of [Hekate] will be reborn above the death of the witch, with the unconditional right to withdraw the soul. 」(Upon_the_death_of_witch_and_the_birth_of_witch, Hecate,by_name_and_choice,shall_repossess_her_soul.)”
Cersie: "Who the hell are you?" - shuddering
Robin: "I'm your master. —The eyes became deep and pitch black, like a bottomless abyss
