This night, the night heron was well prepared, and she had her friend ambush outside Richard Gilves's study early, and waited for her to give her the order to record everything that happened inside.

But this time, they pounced.

Yueji didn't come as promised.

Even Richard Gilves herself was nowhere to be found, and when she inquired about the exotic beasts in the courtyard, she finally heard that the last time they had seen Moonsea was half an hour ago, when she was following Colin Capello's valet with a complicated expression.

She immediately reported the news to Song Lan and Lu Xiang.

"Colin Capello's valet man? Why did she come to find Yueji? ”

Lu Xiang frowned, and a trace of bad premonition emerged in his heart, with the Capello family and the Gilves family in dire straits, they had absolutely no reason to meet at such a time.

Unless there is something that will allow them to temporarily put the family interests and the consortium civil war behind them.

The last news from those exotic beasts was that Yueji followed Colin's maid to the wax museum inside the consortium.

The wax museum is the work of the previous head of the consortium, who was keen to collect all kinds of wax figures, and spent a lot of money to leave this mark on the castle that will always belong to him.

In addition, the exotic beasts also witnessed that not long after Yueji entered the wax museum, Jasmine sneakily followed in.

"There must be something strange about this."

Song Lan echoed.

This sudden change forced them to abandon their original plan and decide to go to the foundation's wax museum immediately, where they made a dummy out of pillows and bedding and put it on the bed to disguise that they were already asleep in bed.

This is a technique that Lu Xiang learned from prison inmates, who try to escape often in this way to trick the prison guards into patrolling.

In order to ensure that the doctor on duty does not break into the ward and find the dummy on the bed, she needs to guard the ward overnight, knocking out anyone who trespasses into the ward and throwing them into the grass downstairs.

After everything was ready, the two hurried to the wax museum.

Even if they took immediate action, the process was extremely unsmooth.

Since the abdication of the previous head of the family, the wax museum has been on hold, and almost no one comes to this ghost place except for the staff who are responsible for cleaning and maintaining the wax figures, especially at night.

The wax figures inside are all the handiwork of masters, each of them is lifelike, and after entering the door, Song Lan has always felt as if there are countless pairs of eyes watching her.

Not surprisingly, they didn't find Yueji, the maid, or Richard in the wax museum.

The huge exhibition hall was surprisingly quiet, and there was not a single sound to be heard, but the exotic beasts were very sure that Yueji and the others had never appeared since they entered the wax museum.

"There's a secret passage here."

Lu Xiang quickly came to the conclusion that this was undoubtedly the most suitable place to place a secret passage, "This time it is up to you to think of a way." ”

If you want to find the entrance to the secret passage in a short time, you can only rely on Song Lan's omnipotent psionic ability, so she must emphasize that Song Lan is definitely a must-have for home travel, killing people and goods, even in a completely unfamiliar environment, he can help you save most trouble.

…………………………

At the same time, the other side.

After walking through a deep and dark corridor, Yueji finally saw a room with light.

The Iris Consortium has hidden so many secrets that she has lived in the castle for so long that she never knew that such a place was hidden under the wax museum.

When I entered, Richard Gilves was already waiting inside.

"How? You must have just known that there is such a magnificent underground labyrinth hidden under the castle. ”

Today's Richard is very different from usual, he is dressed in a black robe, his head is also covered in the hat of the robe, and he now looks more like some kind of dark wizard engaged in cult worship than the ruler of the Iris Consortium.

Even more anomalous than Richard was the floor of the cubicle.

On the ground, a circle similar to that of a magic-themed game was drawn with the pen of an unknown pigment, and the bright red outline of the circle was emitting an eerie glow.

"It took my uncle nearly a decade to build this place, and the original purpose of this place was to fulfill his ambition to continue to secretly control the Iris Consortium after his abdication."

And now, the former head of the consortium is here.

He sat on the throne that had been built for him, looking down haughtily at everyone who came here—as he had been at the time of his death.

Even though the flesh on his body had long since decayed, and every inch of his skin had turned into dry bones, he still maintained the posture of the nobleman, and the hollow holes without eyes were facing everyone, witnessing in a silent way what was about to happen here.

In the genealogy of the Gilvais family, the previous ruler died in a plane crash, which was a terrible accident.

He and his guards disappeared forever from the plane on vacation, and the wreckage of the plane was later recovered from the sea, as well as some mutilated bodies.

"We ...... What are you doing here? ”

Yueji asked uneasily, her right hand involuntarily gripping the knight's sword at her waist, but even that didn't give her much security.

"In order for you to reveal your heart to me, Yueji, it's all for you."

Richard's answer gave her goosebumps, and he opened his arms to Yueji and said, "Now, you should have made the decision to confess to me, right?" Tell me, what did your sister say to you in the hospital? ”

"She'......"

Yueji's eyes were dilated, and he walked obediently towards Richard.

From childhood, absolute allegiance to the Gilves family was ingrained in her brain.

She could imagine Richard's reaction when he learned the truth, but perhaps......

Jasmine was mistaken.

Or is he still willing to keep his promise and forgive their suspicions?

Such thoughts flashed through her mind.

The distance between the two was getting closer and closer, as if Yueji only needed to take one more step forward, and Richard would be able to hold her in his arms.

This time, however, it was a dark blue arc that approached Richard before Moon Ji.

Even the scarlet light from the sacrificial circle was half a beat slower than the thunder, and when the sound of electricity reached Richard's ears, the moon in front of him had long since disappeared, and the beam of light from the circle had failed to bind her in it, and there were still cracks left in the wall of light that seemed to be solid.

Richard's eyes swirled, and a head spun in the air a dozen times before landing in the corner of the room.

The inky viscous liquid splattered everywhere, but it quickly evaporated the moment it touched the arc.

This is the result of her and Jasmine's discussion in the hospital room.

The real Richard Gilves would never stay with the Capello family and call her to this kind of place on the big night.

Jasmine's fears turned out to be correct.

What she was serving at the moment was no longer the real Richard, but a golem that had long since been replaced by worms, and the ink spraying from its broken neck was enough to speak for itself.

The thunder didn't stop there.

Seeing this, the maid's eyes widened in surprise, and the manic and disorderly roar echoed in her ears, not to mention the naked eye, even the spiritual energy she had already spread out could not keep up with the speed of the moon season, the other party was obviously in the room, but the speed was so fast that it seemed to disappear out of thin air.

"As the guardian of the heart of the consortium, you are much stronger than the six-star rescuers I have met before."

Yueji did not speak.

The maid heard the sound of electricity passing by, but neither her sight nor her psionic energy could catch the other party's figure, and all she could do was to use her shadow to grab the head that flew into the air like Richard with her shadow the moment her gaze deviated from its original trajectory.

The skull eventually failed to return to its original place.

More and more cuts appeared, and she could clearly see the dark blue arc of electricity flowing out of her body, the energy that seemed to destroy everything surged through her body, and almost in the blink of an eye, her body was torn apart by the arc.

Completely leaving behind the human body, the dark energy surging inside is raging and surging.

Suddenly, Moonseason seemed to see something other than psionic energy.

The impurities made the energy no longer pure, and whispers from nowhere almost flooded into her brain.

The strong mental impact caused her to pause her movements for half a second, and the black energy body also seized the gap, and its body grew countless tentacles, reconnecting those scattered parts of the human body back together.

】

The maid once again returned to Yueji in a strange and terrifying posture, with a mad smile on her face.

Yueji's outstretched right palm did not flinch in the slightest, and stuck to the maid's heart.

Suddenly, dark blue lines appeared on her silver-white light armor.

The devastating psionic strength finally made the maid's face change slightly, and she seemed to want to turn sideways, but the energy gushing out of her palm engulfed her first.

The dark blue psionic fluctuations did not stop there, it broke through the gate like a beam of light, annihilating everything that stood in its way, and when it dissipated, only a gully led to nowhere, and its end was beyond her field of vision, bursting light through the surface, making the entire second sector seem to skip the night and return to day.

Yueji began to gasp violently.

Jasmine also told her many things that made her realize that she must not leave a hand behind against such an enemy.

The intense consumption of psionic energy made her pale, but fortunately, both the maid and the shadow that lurked in her body disappeared under the baptism of the beam.

Immediately after, she heard footsteps from far and near.

A familiar figure in a white lab coat was desperately rushing here.

But before she could see the owner of the footsteps, another voice came through the air.

Ethereal, yet ubiquitous.

"I am very satisfied with your performance, and it is not in vain that we have spent so much effort on you."

The voice paused for a moment, "It's a pity, if you want to destroy me, you'll need to start at least a psionic storm." ”
