The Storm Rises Chapter 175 The Conflict That Broke Out
Charles ran to the Joker's side, looked at the guy who covered his original appearance with the clown's makeup, and asked with a little anticipation, "How are you performing, Mr. Clown?" β
"Please don't worry, I will show you and the audience the best world in everyone's heart, after all, for everyone, the most desirable things are also different, and the appearance of the best world is also different, right?"
The corners of the Joker's mouth have a smile that never fades, and cheerful words ring in the ears of the audience and Charles.
"Makes sense, then hurry up, I can't wait." Charles nodded earnestly, as if he agreed with the clown's claim.
And he had already begun to recite the prayer of the Night Lady in his heart, preventing possible spiritual pollution with his soul and the Night Sky Tree that had lost Wang Yu, the creator, but was still working normally under the operation of the pile of things left by Wang Yu.
"Okay, then please witness, our ideal world."
With a wave of his hand, the clown dropped a large number of petals on the top of his head, all of which were made of colored paper, but under the influence of illusion, these colored papers were no different from normal petals in the eyes of the audience, and even faintly fragrant.
Then the boards on the stage also rise, forming a scene similar to the green screen used to add special effects in the Earth effects scene.
"Magic Crystal Slab ......?" Although Charles had been looking at Mr. Clown with an expectant expression, the corner of his eyes and his mental perception had already noticed the erected board.
The good technique, filling the background board of the magic crystal, is indeed enough to create an illusion of fake reality for these ordinary audiences.
"It's an honor to invite you handsome little brother, please ask what is your name, and I will prepare a unique gift for you."
The clown glanced at the audience members who had been affected by the hallucination and had fallen into their own fantasies, and turned their heads to look at Charles in front of him, asking sincerely and sincerely.
"Ah, my name is Schugin Wilsbach." Charles looked at the clown in front of him with the same innocent eyes.
"Yes, Mr. Schugin, do you often feel unfair about your life, do you feel exhausted when you run around for your busy life, do you feel jealous and envious when you see the good life of those glamorous people?"
The Joker's voice was soft and slow, with a relaxing power, as if his concerned tone of inquiry was enough to make people let their guard down about it.
"That's why they chose the Walled District as the location for their performances? It's no wonder that it often causes riots, it can only be said that they have found the right place, the residents of the city wall area are indeed living badly, and it is normal to be greatly affected by these words, plus some illusions to guide ......"
Charles listened to the Joker's temptations with an innocent expression, and showed a sad expression at the right time, as if he really remembered his sad and bad life because of the Joker's words.
In fact, this guy was definitely one of the best in the royal city when he was born, where did he come from.
Charles was about to say something to match the Joker's words, but the Joker went on.
"Do you think, if there is such a kingdom, are you willing to fight for it, are you willing to give your life for it, are you willing to become our compatriot?"
"There is no oppression, everyone is equal, everyone enjoys their own unique life, everyone distributes what they earn according to their needs, the strong will fight for the weak, and the rich will share their wealth among the poor."
"And this is just the beginning, with the gradual improvement of this country, everyone will progress together, become strong together, and the whole country will become more and more powerful and beautiful."
"The study of magic will go further, the economy will surpass that of all existing kingdoms, and the culture will accumulate in time and harmony, even better than the ancient kingdoms of elves and dragons."
"When the whole kingdom has such a great and unimaginable power, it can provide the inhabitants of every kingdom with the life they want."
"Mr. Huguein, are you willing to do this? Do you want to contribute to our beautiful "ideal country"? β
"Behold, how unfair Alesstrler's rule is to you, don't you think it's unfair to look at the inhabitants of this area, and to look at those who have a better life!"
"You should stand up, shout out your grievances, your indignation, and start with, in the simplest of terms, overthrow their restraints on you......"
The Joker's words range from the affection of the vision of this wonderful country at the beginning, to the excitement of looking forward to the future, to the sadness of the tragic life of Charles's fictional identity, the feelings in the Joker's words are constantly changing, and they skillfully guide those who listen to him down the path of "rebellion".
"Well, I think what you said ......" Charles looked at the clown, as if he agreed with what he said, but he really didn't care much in his heart, he was no longer the somewhat idealistic child he used to be, would he believe this?
He was going to take it by surprise at the end, pretending to approve, but he said, "But I don't agree!" "Scare the clown, and then see how the other person reacts, so as to decide whether to hit him with a big fireball or try to control it.
"I ......" Charles just wanted to say that I disagreed, but his mouth couldn't open his mouth, and he just said the word "I", but he couldn't say the next words.
"What's going on?! Something is preventing me from saying no? No, my body is not confined to me, it is me? β
"My soul is reluctant to say this refusal, there is a part of my consciousness urging me to accept this ideal country, damn it, what is the situation, why is this happening, praying for the distribution of the spiritual pollution effect of the communication network?"
The shock in Charles' heart spread, what was it that made him not refuse, this power came from his soul? His subconscious, what's going on?
"May I ask if this Mr. Hugoin cares anything about making you unwilling to contribute to our ideal country? That's not good, it's something that people yearn for, and you shouldn't go against it, right? This is also your chance to atone for the sins of your malicious intruder. β
The clown leaned into Charles' ear and whispered, his words were still brisk, but the meaning inside made Charles a little surprised, this guy had already seen that he was pretending to be a resident of the city wall?
He is not panicked, Wang Yu and Edward are here, even if his state is a little wrong, his two teammates can be trusted.
Seeing that Charles seemed reluctant to say yes, an extra sword appeared in the clown's hand, which appeared directly in his hand like a juggler, and the cold light shimmered, gesturing.
"If you don't want to, if you don't want to, I'll have to change people." The Joker's tone was still joyful, but the meaning of his words was already full of murderous intent.
"I still can't move, what is not mentally polluted things affects my spirit, don't let me move and don't let me say I don't agree, there is indeed something in the circus of this ideal country."
Charles was still able to think normally, but from the depths of his "heart" there was something affecting him, and he would not be allowed to refuse.
"Forget it, then let's change someone, this handsome little guy who destroyed our country against the great ideal, please don't affect us."
The Joker seemed to lose his patience, and the sword in his hand swept towards the neck of Charles, who was unaware of what was bound to him.
The sword was fast in the clown's hand, and the afterimage swung by, making a grinding sound against the air, and the sharp edge almost instantly reached Charr's fragile neck.
At the moment before the long sword was about to sweep Charles, Charles's eyes suddenly changed, as if he had changed people, his sharp eyes swept towards the sword, and at the same time, the magic vortex in his body was running at great speed, driving a spell model, which was completed in an instant, and the third-order spell turned into a quagmire.
Charr's body suddenly collapsed downward, and his whole body was replaced by earth elementals, turning into a puddle of muddy water, which was used to ignore physical attacks, and was suddenly used by "Charr", and the long sword could not cause any effective damage to Charles in this state.
But the quickest thing to do with his spells was the Scarlet Sword that rose from beneath the ground, and a long sword slammed through the ground of the stage and slammed into the Joker's slash with a blow that would not have hit Charles even if he didn't react.
Sparks flew everywhere, the long sword in the clown's hand was cracked open a gap, and the metal sword body shook endlessly, but the long sword that appeared suddenly turned directly into scarlet liquid, and retracted back to the place where it appeared......
"Huh?" How could I be stunned just now, shouldn't it, Charles, who had turned into a quagmire, regained his normal body not far away, he felt a little dizzy in his head, what happened just now was actually a little vague, this shouldn't be, he couldn't be stunned in this situation.
"It seems that those partners of yours are also planning to obstruct us, the ideal country should not be blocked, it seems that you can only stay here today."
The clown glanced at Charles, then at the hole where the blood-colored blade retracted, and finally locked his eyes on Edward and Wang Yu standing up on the stage, above Wang Yu's fingers, a scarlet blood thread extended out into the gap in the audience, and the blood sword that stopped the clown's attack just now was his handiwork.
"Don't be stunned, Charles, I'll deal with you and the others, Wang Yu will deal with this guy who should have the ability to influence spirits."
Edward's words came into the ears of Charles, who were a little stunned, and Edward's perspective Charles was just controlled by the clown in some way, and then Wang Yu made a move to block it.
Wang Yu, who knew the existence of "One", knew what had just happened, and it should be "One" who took over Charles's body at the last moment.
And because he can't let Charles know about the existence of "One", every time "One" takes over the body, it will make Charles stunned for a long time, which is the result of the influence of "One" on Charles's soul.
"Here we are." Charles was no longer stunned, a tarot card painted with stars appeared in his hand, and with a flick, the whole person disappeared and reappeared next to Edward.
At this moment, a bunch of demonic beasts that had appeared in the performance before, those papier-mΓ’chΓ© bodies, but at this moment, they didn't know what kind of force gave them shapes, pacing out from the back of the stage, grinning teeth, saliva in their mouths continued to flow out, and their fierce and vicious demeanor had been revealed.
"Illusion and some magic skeletons and the like, it's quite easy to deal with, but I want to solve it quickly and protect those audiences." A glow of thunder and lightning had begun to appear in Charr's hands, and flames danced in them.
"It's okay, I'll cover you up." Edward said, under the influence of the fighting spirit that had awakened in the official knight stage, the inner potential called "Barrier", which had already been active.
A translucent barrier enveloped all the hallucinating spectators, including Charles, and compared to the Iron Sun Knight Secret Method, the coverage of Edward's self-awakened inner potential at this moment was already incomparable.
"It's the first time I've seen this internal dive of yours, or the protection type, is the strength enough? The power of my spells is still relatively large. β
"No problem, this barrier is absolutely impossible to break until I fall."
took out his usual shield from his back and plunged it into his feet, and the fighting spirit spread upward, so that Edward himself, the shield, and the barrier were linked together.
"That clown is please, Wang Yu."
Charles flung the spell mixed with lightning and fireballs in his hand towards the group of "demonic beasts" who rushed up with fangs and claws, and the violent explosion tore these "demonic beasts" to the ground and flew flesh and blood, or the magic skeleton burst, and the paper that formed the shell was wiped out.
The aftermath of the explosion and the high-speed stones that burst from the blasted ground were steadily blocked by Edward's barriers, and did not hurt the residents in the audience.
Nodding, Wang Yu jumped down, and the spiritual power communicated with the Book of Weavers, and the sprint spell specially used for displacement prepared by Avia for Wang Yu, who had lost his wizard power and could no longer perform air borrowing operations such as double jumps, was instantly activated by the second-order spell Storm Foot.
The storm gathered, and a powerful thrust erupted behind Wang Yu, causing his figure to quickly fly forward after a pause in the air, and immediately reached the top of the stage where the clown was under the influence of the wind element.
The hand quickly grabbed the holster on his waist, pulled out the furnace rage, and without hesitation, he pulled the trigger continuously, and the magazine of the alchemy revolver rotated at high speed, pouring out six ordinary projectiles at almost the same moment, flying towards the clown below.
The clown below showed a trademark smile, his body writhed suddenly, and he dodged the projectiles that flew away in a strange posture with twisted limbs, judging from the direction and posture of dodging, this guy predicted the direction of Wang Yu's shot, and the flexible dodge angle was perfect.
With a calm look in his eyes, Wang Yu's other hand wearing a blood-biting ring made a clean pulling motion upward, and the fighting spirit was carried and spread out by the ripples.
The stage exploded, and a large number of tenacious and sharp swords of different sizes made of blood rose from the ground where the clown was, blocking the space where the clown moved!
