Chapter 208: Solve and Play
472
Luckily, wearing a riding suit with long pants, Audrey was able to easily step on the flower pot placed around the corner and stand still on the windowsill.
She bowed to Bishop Storm, held out her hand, and asked politely:
"What shall I call you, Mr. Bishop?"
Lurumi took her hand very carefully, and said to Audrey as a generous and benevolent elder:
"To distinguish yourself from the Bishop of the Church of the Night, you may call me Lurmi."
Lifted by the wind, her feet off the windowsill where she was standing, Audrey, who heard this, was slightly surprised.
Lurmi is actually a surname, and some people with great talents will give special meaning to ordinary surnames.
Just as after the birth of Russell the Great, the ordinary surname "Gustav" became a noble and special surname, which played an important position in many literary and artistic works, and also gave people with the same surname who were not related to Russell the Great a pride that came out of nowhere.
The historical "Jean-Jacques Loumi" is the most famous of this surname, a famous philosopher, educator, and well-known doctrine that "man is born free". It is also rumored that he became a saint for his contributions to the cause of education and philosophy.
However, this news was not confirmed by the Storm Church.
Audrey stabilized her body in mid-air, gently held Luermi's hand, and smiled tentatively:
"Yes, Your Excellency Bishop Lulmi."
"You have a special last name."
The Bishop of the Storm smiled, "It's just a trivial matter that isn't worth mentioning. Miss Hall, please tell me about the whole process of your discovery of the anomaly. β
Dark clouds gradually enveloped the castle and manor, and the wind rose violently, but it did not shake the two in the sky.
With the help of Lurmi, Audrey quickly gained balance, and when she stepped out of the castle window and into the sky outside, she looked down and was stunned.
Below.
The windows of the castle, the road downstairs, the garden, and the walkway of the manor were all filled with people, and their own servants were standing all around, and the neighborhood was surrounded by water.
Several carriages stood sideways in the middle of the road, the horses snorting in place, and the coachmen standing beside the carriages.
The people outside all stood still.
And with his head raised, he looked up at them like a sunflower chasing the sun.
"So serious?" Audrey was a little frightened, this was the first time she had seen an extraordinary event of this magnitude.
At first, she thought that the extraordinary incident in which she and Susie could escape would not be too serious, but only now did she realize how lucky she was, and the entire manor and castle were spared except herself!
Suddenly, she looked over the balcony of the castle and saw "Hibbert" also standing behind the glass wall, looking at them with a blank expression.
Audrey immediately began to tell her story.
After all, both father and mother already knew that they had become extraordinary, and had even just reimbursed Earl Hall for the "Lies" necklace. Even his family can't hide it, and he definitely can't hide the fact that he is an extraordinary person from a bishop.
"I have a pet dog, and her name is Susie."
"I don't know when the mutation started, it was Susie who noticed the problem first. She barked at the place where a maid had stood, and I found the shoe print of a men's leather shoe on the ground. β
Since it was unclear whether the other party had found Susie to be an extraordinary animal, Audrey simply chose to skip the part of her conversation with Susie, telling about her use of extraordinary objects to "lie" to change her appearance, test the servant's reaction, and later let Susie take the letter to the outside of the manor to ask for help.
Lurmi felt that his guess fit the reality, and nodded knowingly:
"Yes, this extraordinary event did not include animals among the affected ones. Miss Hall, you're in luck. β
After saying that, he praised without hesitation: "In addition, you are a smart and brave woman. Both you and your friend Susie have provided me with vital intel, and you have saved not only yourself, but many more people. β
Audrey was amazedβsuch words came from the mouth of a storm's bishop!
You must know that storm believers are the easiest type to label, they are simple and rude, reckless and arrogant, even the best education and cultivation can not completely cover up these shortcomings, the god storm lord even hinted that "women are inherently intellectually defective" into the holy scriptures, writing a consensus between male and female storm believers, often triggering fierce religious debates.
What's more, according to Mr. "The Hanged Man", the role of "Sailor" is also full of irritable and irritable elements, so much so that the Sailor and the Storm Church are more and more labeled in Audrey's heart.
The bishop in front of her simply subverted all stereotypes about the Storm's followers, and she became more and more convinced that this Bishop of Lurmi was the philosopher of history.
After becoming a semi-sacred, it is easy to survive for more than a hundred years.
Audrey froze and asked, "Bishop Lurmi, can these affected people still be saved?" β
This is her primary concern, because the victims are not only a large number of ordinary innocent people, but also her parents, mothers and brothers.
"We'll figure it out." "But there is no guarantee that everyone will be saved." β
Audrey's hand clenched slightly.
At this moment, she heard a long singing voice drifting into her ears.
"The glory of love, hope, and peace did not deceive us for long;"
"Even the joy of youth has died like a dream, like a morning fog......"
The chant of this hymn floated softly, and the beautiful low tone was like a love song on a moonlit night. Audrey smiled unconsciously, she saw the red moon, the black sky and the stars, and dreamed of her mother's warm hands, to sleep in these lullaby-like words.
She forgot to control her balance and fell backwards abruptly, and the sudden feeling of falling suddenly woke her up again.
But the crowd below did not regain their consciousness like her, and they fell to the ground one after another, and happy smiles gradually appeared on their expressionless faces.
They fell into a peaceful sleep, saved from the effects of the seals by the Bishop of the Night.
"Praise the Goddess."
Audrey pointed out a red moon on her chest and closed her eyes in prayer reverently.
Lurumi waited patiently for her prayer to end, and then asked, "Miss Hall, where are the mirrors you are talking about?" β
Audrey replied:
"The servants placed mirrors in every corner of the castle, and the mirrors were pointed at everyone. Please be careful. β
"I see."
After speaking, Lurmi raised a hand.
As soon as he reached out and grabbed it, the dark clouds floating in the sky were twisted into a huge whirlpool, and the black cumulonimbus clouds were stacked directly above the castle.
Bang!
A bucket-thick bolt of lightning struck directly onto the roof of the Hall family's castle, and windows and the glass of the flower room exploded at the same time. After the glass hit the ground, the deafening thunder was belated.
After destroying all the reflective objects on the periphery, the silver-white electric light poured down like rain, washing the inside and out of Hall Castle.
Mirrors were pinpointed, crackling, cracking like a cannon salute. The Storm Path's superior range attack ability was vividly displayed, and Lurmi completely destroyed this carefully prepared trap without much effort, without risking his life at all.
The electrostatic current is swaying, and everyone's hair is developing in the direction of the sea urchin.
Under the dark clouds, night covered the castle and manor of the Hall family, and everyone fell asleep in silence.
"Is the matter settled?" Audrey's mind had just detached from the grand scene.
Luermi shook his head: "Not yet. β
"It seems that the seal is not hidden here, but fortunately, at least the people in this area were saved."

"Give me back my life and identity ......"
The voice echoed in Amon's ears, barely at all.
Amon really didn't expect that this guy would be haunted after he died, and he didn't want to run away but get close to him, and he wanted to regain his identity.
I'm afraid that the original plan was to attract Amon to the castle of the Hall family, but when I saw Lurmi pass, I knew that the plan had failed, so I chose to do it directly to myself. But that's fine, I knew that the other party would come to look for me, so Amon just waited for it to come to the door.
Amon suddenly reached out and wiped it on his head, changed the color of his hair that had been deceived by fraud, and put on his monocle again like lightning.
He turned back sharply and looked at the mirror that was close at a distance.
The face in the mirror turned out to be not the standard Amon with black hair, but the false appearance of Amun's fraud before.
The nature of the seal allows it to identify Amun's identity, and no matter what it becomes, the identity remains the same.
Amon immediately took it to heart, and immediately made a puzzled look, and began to deceive the other party:
"Who are you?"
The figure in the mirror opened its mouth, and its exposed rotten vocal cords vibrate:
"Amon."
"I'm Amon, you're not Amon, you're just a seal that thinks you're Amon." Amon said tongue twisters unhurriedly.
The man in the mirror said:
"You took away my identity, and I am Amon."
Amon immediately took advantage of the loophole in the other party's words and said strongly:
"I am Amon, I am you, I have never been killed, I have not been taken away from my identity, you are not Amon at all."
Ranwen
Every sentence in this is true, but it just confuses the identity of "Amon". Amon's vaunted group tactics have instead become a weapon of internal deception. He tried to convince the spirit of the seal to convince it that it didn't exist.
The plan goes well, and the person in the mirror, who lacks the ability to think, is shaken by his existence under Amon's mouth.
If the person opposite looks like himself, has the same memories as himself, dresses the same as himself, and is also Amon, then isn't he himself?
So what is "I"?
Seeing that the deception was effective, Amon immediately took advantage of the victory and pursued:
"You don't exist, you're just the instinct of the seal."
"Your memories come from me, and you're just a wisp of my spirit."
"I'm Amon." The man in the mirror emphasized.
"That's right." Amon grinned, "So, it's time for you to be a part of me again." β
The image of the person in the mirror began to distort and distort: "Become Amon? β
"Yes."
Amon took the initiative to reach out and cover the mirror: "Return to me and become Amon." β
This time, he deceived not only the other party's thinking and memory, but also the other party's "purpose".
He used words to deceive "regaining his identity" into "turning back into Amon", and integrated "regaining his life" into this purpose - he is Amun, he is alive, so doesn't becoming himself accomplish these two purposes at the same time?
From Amon's point of view, everything he said was true!
The face of the person in the mirror was covered by Amon's palm, and the figure on it was even more ambiguous, chaotic, and gradually turned into darkness.
Worm phantoms of spiritual brilliance and twelve links flowed out of the mirror and were absorbed by Amon.
Syllable.
A crack appeared in the mirror, and the corpse suddenly lost control and fell to the ground in an eerie position.
The mirror embedded in the flesh rolled out and shattered on the ground.
Amon kept looking at the mirror and shattered completely, before finally breathing a sigh of relief and wiping the cold sweat hidden in his hair.
"It really worked." He was a little complacent, looking around at the crowd around him, and relieved the influence of the "fraud" on a large scale.
The wrong identity was returned to the right person, and people regained their senses and looked at each other, wondering why they were here.
Amon retreated quickly, and as soon as he walked on his front foot, the sound of poetry on his back foot drifted along with the night, and the people stood and closed their eyes and fell asleep.
The three major churches sprang into action, awakening the people one by one, giving them psychotherapy and counseling.
All their strange memories today will turn into a strange dream of a lake, and most of them will only remember that they have become another person in the dream, and will not remember any details related to extraordinary abilities.
Amon, who had already run far away and was hiding, suddenly had a strange feeling.
His spirituality became active in the moment he had just now, and he also had a spiritual feeling that he had never felt before.
"Is this what humans say, how it feels to get feedback from the play?"
Amon was very surprised and very curious: "I played the role of 'Green' very successfully, it should be believed by Lu Ermi." β
"But I can't stay in this city any longer, so let's go somewhere else for a while."
He continued to cheat distances and soon disappeared into East Chester County.
β¦β¦
Audrey nervously stayed by her family's side.
At this moment, Hibbert's eyelids moved, and he slowly opened them.
"Hibbert!" Audrey happily said, "Great, you're awake!" β
But she didn't expect that Hibbert would take a step back very excitedly, and then she opened her eyes and carefully looked at the girl opposite.
ββ¦β¦ Audrey? β
"It's me...... What's wrong with you, Hibbert? β
Lord Hibbert sat up with his head in one hand and the soft bed in the other. The soft and expensive silk fabric did not seem to be fake, and he was finally convinced that he was back in his real home, and not in that horrible slum.
"I'm fine...... I'm fine, I feel like I'm having a nightmare. β
A real nightmare.
He dreams of robbery, beatings, starvation, murder, street girls, filth, sickness, and all kinds of horrific events, and his role in it is a skinny child who picks up garbage to eat, and at the end of the dream, he is beaten to death.
Hibbert didn't say much, he didn't want his sister to have a bad psychological shadow too.
His stomach was churning, and the dream was so real that he even remembered how the dirty, moldy bread felt across his teeth and tongue.
The details of the dream would soon fade away as quickly as they had ever been, but at least for now, Hibbert was sick enough to vomit.
Thinking of the punches and kicks, of the disgusting food and the filthy people, Hibbert felt a wave of disgust and anger burning in his heart like never before.
He suddenly felt how correct the Beckland smog incident was.
The East Side and the people of the East Side are not supposed to exist at all.

The double watch is over, and it will be completed today, tired to death, sleep!
