657.The Spread of Evil (4)
Zhou Ke'er took the two oil bottles behind him and slowly came to the front hall of Timius's Mansion, but found that the servants here were busy as usual, and there seemed to be nothing unusual at all.
But... This is a very normal scene, and it is exactly where something is wrong - obviously the sky outside suddenly darkens from the clear sky in the blink of an eye, normal people should subconsciously pay attention to it, right? But they didn't seem to notice it at all.
Zhou Ke'er raised her eyebrows, walked to a maid who was cleaning by the window, stretched out her finger and pointed to the sky outside the window, and asked very naturally casually, "Is the weather always like this here?" Doesn't it feel a little uncomfortable? ”
The maid raised her head suspiciously, and glanced out the window in the direction pointed by Zhou Keer, her expression was a little puzzled, but when she saw the Lannister and Izak standing behind Zhou Keer, she still replied with a little trepidation: "Miss Hui, Wright has always had little rain, and today's sunny day is basically every day, but... Maybe you don't like this kind of sunny weather very much, miss? ”
Zhou Ke'er looked at a dark sky.
Well, it's a sunny day.
"Well, I really don't really like the weather – you know, it might tan me."
Zhou Ke'er shrugged her shoulders, thanked her casually, and turned around and left here.
Lannister and Isaac hurried after Zhou Keer, leaving the confused little maid unaware of what was going on.
Lannister couldn't hold his breath at first, walked to Zhou Ke'er's side in two steps, frowned and asked in a low voice, "What happened just now?" It's dark outside now, why did she say it was a sunny day? Are they hallucinating? ”
Isaac was quite sensible, touched his chin and analyzed: "Judging from the fact that none of the servants objected to the maid's words just now, the current situation should be no different from what the maid said in their eyes." That means either they're all hallucinating, or the three of us are hallucinating. ”#29233#164#21435#23567#35828#32593#164#87#87#87#46#73#113#85#120#83#46#99#111#109
"There's no way I'm hallucinating. The reason why you can see the real scene is because I helped you block the evil fluctuations just now. ”
Zhou Ke'er replied casually and very firmly, but she was also frowning slightly in her heart - judging from the conversation just now, it seems that the others have not yet appeared abnormal... Is it because this is just the beginning, so you haven't had time to show it yet?
If it's this kind of gradual change, it will be relatively easier to have a buffer time.
Thinking of this, Zhou Ke'er turned his head to look at Isaac: "I have to tell Duke Timius about this situation... Oh, he's gone to the palace, isn't he? Then go to Viscount Nosa first. He's supposed to be in the House of Timius, right? ”
Isaac didn't answer, just pointed ahead.
"I think I hear a beautiful young lady calling to me? Did I hear it wrong? ”
Nuosha's voice sounded from the front, Zhou Ke'er turned his head, and saw Nuosha rubbing his temples, looking a little tired, and walked over and said, "Okay - I just ordered everything in order, and was about to go to the kitchen to add some food to myself, when I heard you calling me." Did something happen? Please don't tell me the bad news. "I'm sorry, yes."
Zhou Ke'er shrugged his shoulders and carefully scanned Nuosha with heavy pupils, but he couldn't see any difference between his condition and the two Lannisters, "In your eyes, the sky outside may still be sunny and clear, but in fact, the sky is dark now." My guess is that the entire king must have been completely covered by a barrier like an enchantment by now, and almost all of them were in a completely imperceptible hallucination. ”
"It's not funny..."
Nosha sighed helplessly, his face looked a little ugly, and he walked to the window and looked out, "Are you sure that everyone is hallucinating, not that you are hallucinating?" ”
"Unfortunately, this is not possible."
Zhou Ke'er opened his mouth to lie, shrugged his shoulders and said: "If I fall into a hallucination, what is in front of you now is not a human who can still keep his mind and talk to you, but an aberrant monster who is killing in the Mansion of Timius - to the extent that I am infected by the evil, once I lose my mind for a moment, it will lead to irreversible distortion." So you can trust my judgment, as long as I'm not distorted, what I see must be true. ”
Although it is not as absolute as Zhou Ke'er said, if Zhou Ke'er can't see the evil things, then it is even more impossible for other people here to see it. It's better to let them believe in Zhou Keer unconditionally.
Nuosha looked at Zhou Ke'er's conclusive appearance, and he did believe it nine times out of ten, and what Zhou Ke'er said was also in line with his previous guess, so he didn't doubt it too much - rather, he didn't think Zhou Ke'er had any need to lie about this kind of thing, and it seemed... Neither Isaac nor Lannister, who followed him, retorted.
Nuosha quickly sorted out the current situation, and sighed helplessly covering his forehead, but immediately adjusted his mentality, "Then what should we do now?" ”
Zhou Ke'er raised her eyebrows and pointed at herself, "You ask me?" This kind of thing should be planned by you, or I'll come to you to do something. I'm just able to keep myself safe for the time being, with a few people at most. I'm not the organizer of the special operation, nor am I the commander-in-chief, so how do I know what to ask you to do? ”
Speaking of this, Zhou Ke'er pursed his lips and added: "If you don't have any feasible plans that can be done... Then it seems that the fall of this place is only a matter of time, so I will not be accompanied by many others, and I will just slip away. I don't want to die with you here. ”
"Whew... I see. Give me some time, and I'll think about it. ”
Nosha seemed a little uncomfortable, covered his forehead and waved his hand, "I do feel the evil influence you said now, and I shouldn't have a headache." Am I also infected? ”
"I think so. None of the people in this city were spared. ”
Zhou Ke'er nodded unceremoniously, "Remind you, physical pain and discomfort are only the least worth mentioning, and the headache is just a foreplay that shakes your willpower and takes the opportunity to introduce illusions." ”
Nosha nodded.
At this moment, there seemed to be a faint voice outside the Mansion of Timius...
