Chapter 123: Opening
"McConaughey, you go to the exit and stand by...... You should know where it is, and you have to guard the only exit anyway, and you can't let the breath of the 'primordial moon' be exposed.
"Matthew, Robert, you will be ambushed near Miss Hazel for a while, once there is a change, you will activate the 'Thunder and Lightning Charm' in your hand as soon as possible, don't be stingy."
……
On the second floor of the venue, after Captain Kuhn of the "Substitute Punisher" team had methodically assigned tasks to his team members, he took a deep breath and took out a metal locket engraved with many inscriptions from his arms.
Abner only glanced at it from a distance, and saw that the box had at least the inscriptions in the fields of "sun" and "tyrant".
Seal with the power of the "sun"-related field...... I'm afraid this seal belongs to the more evil category......
As soon as Abner thought of this, he saw Kuhn take out a black eyeball the size of a goose egg with a mysterious glow from the box.
This eyeball has no pupils, and it is as dark as a night without moonlight, with an inexplicable sense of heaviness and oppression.
If it weren't for the fact that there were a few illusory "eyelashes" flapping out of thin air, Abner would have thought of it as a special black gem.
Wait a minute? Lash flapping? Isn't this eyeball alive?
Abner's heart moved, and he was about to look a little more to confirm his guess, only to find that Captain Kuhn had closed his eyes, and then placed the black eyeball on the center of his brow.
With the completion of this action, the first and second floors of the dance hall were suddenly cut off from the outside world, forming a strange space of independence. Although the original owners or objects on these two floors have been preserved intact, Abner clearly feels that they are just phantoms, fakes, and those who really enter this space are people or things with extraordinary spirituality.
Moreover, this isolated space seems to have the ability to absorb all kinds of extreme emotions...... I'm in a state like I'm using a "mechanical mind......
Standing in the corridor on the second floor, looking condescendingly, Abner saw several of the guests looking around in surprise, and then quickly pretending not to find anything, and continued to cooperate with the phantom's movements, while quietly moving slowly in the direction of the entrance of the venue.
Only Miss Hézel behaved like a light in the night, conspicuous, and her panicked appearance was like that of a standard rookie, so that a nearby extraordinary, who pretended to be a phantom, tried to hide himself from her.
This is obviously very problematic, even if she is extremely scared, but in this space, the emotion of "fear" is afraid that it will be immediately drained, and she should have regained her composure long ago before ...... the breath of the "primordial moon" can help her fight against the influence of the seal?
Abner could imagine that the "substitutes" who had used this seal I don't know how many times would know better. At this point, Kuhn had thoroughly believed Abner's previous report...... This Miss Hazel is indeed very suspicious.
Just as the two members of the "substitute punishment" quietly outflanked Hazel and tried to restrain her, the girl suddenly took out a green seed from her pocket.
As soon as the seed appeared, Abner, Kuhn, and the rest of the "substitutes" all felt a frenzied warning from the spirit, as if the seed itself was in great danger, and they even slowed down their movements.
And the same is true of Hazel, who is holding the "seed", the moment she feels the spiritual warning, she is completely stupid, as if she can't believe that she will carry such a dangerous thing with her.
At this moment, a "wind blade" appeared out of thin air, directly cutting off Hazel's arm holding the "seed", and almost at the same time, a monster made of dirt suddenly emerged from Hazel's feet, hugged her body, and quickly retreated to the right corner of the dance hall with her.
The one who wielded the Wind Blade was Abner, who had the support of the White Eye personality, and was the first to recover from the fear of being spiritually suppressed, and immediately severed the direct connection between the "seed" and Hazel.
Although I don't know if Hazel is still saved at this time, if she is allowed to hold the seed all the time, I am afraid that there is really no possibility of being saved at all.
The dirt monster that follows is the "Earth Golem" summoned by Judy, which belongs to the work of the "Ancient Alchemist", and is thought to be something her father gave her to defend herself.
Speaking of which, Abner has not been able to find Miss Judy until now, and it is clear that she has used some kind of advanced ability recorded in the seal to completely hide herself.
"Earth Golem? It seems that Detective Brian, you have a high status in the Earth Mother God Church, and you can actually get the self-defense items given by the demigods. A young "substitute" standing beside Abner said with a little sour when he saw this scene.
The "substitute" was named Evan, and Captain Kuhn arranged for Abner to "protect" him...... Although Abner didn't feel at all that he needed the protection of a Sequence 7 "navigator".
Is this a misunderstanding? Hey, it seems that in the eyes of others in the future, I will also be a person with a backstage! Abner complained in his heart, but he didn't mean to explain. Judy is not suitable for exposure this time, and he can only take the blame.
At this time, the mutation regenerated, and after the arm holding the "seed" fell to the ground, it quickly turned into a ball of blood and was absorbed by the seed.
Then, the emerald green seed completed the whole process of germination, growth, flowering, and fruiting in one second!
As a crimson fruit like a crimson moon fell to the ground, a cry of "wow" reached the ears of everyone present, and the two "substitutes" who were about to throw out the spell suddenly fell to the ground with their heads in their hands, constantly rolling.
And in the corner, Hazel, who had lost too much blood due to the severed arm, snorted even more and passed out directly.
Abner can bear it because of the relationship of "pure white eyes", so he also saw a scene that made his scalp tingle:
A man's head grew on that fruit! At first, there was only a skull, then it was filled with flesh, and then it grew hair, and gradually formed facial features......
Although the whole process is like the evolution of life, the evil in it makes people shudder, because Abner can clearly see that the so-called bones, flesh, hair, and skin are all made up of red plasma spurted from the fruit!
When the head that grew from the fruit finally took shape, everyone looked at his face, and Evan beside Abner had just gotten rid of the impact of that "cry", and after only one glance, he exclaimed, "Lieutenant Bernard?!" How so? ”
Lieutenant Bernard? This seems to be the MI9 officer who advocated for the investigation of Hugh...... How did he end up here? Or in this form? Is it Rey's handiwork again?
Abner narrowed his eyes and looked at Captain Kuhn, who had been keeping his eyes closed, and thought to himself: "The Substitute Punisher is very good at frontal combat, but it seems that the means to deal with this kind of incident are not enough......
As he was thinking so, he saw that the two members of the "substitute punishment" downstairs finally activated the "charm", and then one after another small electric snakes instantly formed, jumping towards the fruit that had just grown a head, and in the blink of an eye, it climbed up to the mouth, nose and other places of the head.
"Crackling"
As the sound of electric shocks sounded, Lieutenant Bernard's hair stood on end, and the facial features on his head seemed to be twisted in pain.
"You're all going to die!" At this moment, Lieutenant Bernard, as if he had regained some consciousness from the electric shock, spoke strangely.
As soon as the experienced "substitute punisher" heard this, they knew that it was not good, and immediately used the "flying" ability of the wind-bearer, and flew back sharply into the air far behind.
Almost at the same time, the flower that the seed had grown into revealed its hideous, toothy mouthparts, and gnawed at where the two substitutes had just stood.
This time it was as if a giant hammer had smashed on the ground, shaking the entire space.
