Volume 1 The Stone of the Philosopher Chapter 30 Virtue Drives Out Evil

The attendants around were taken aback, they couldn't believe that a mother could do such a thing to her child, and looked at the woman covered in red and white slime, and their cold hairs stood on end.

The woman opened her eyes and looked around after exhaling, and then said in a slow but firm tone:

"Anyone who wants to desecrate time deserves to die."

I saw her tap her hands twice, and then put her hands to her ears and listened to something.

The air seemed to stand still for a moment, and then a circle of near-transparent ripples spread out of her palm, through the hall, through everyone in the hall.

Then, everybody's move slowed down.

Wealthy businessmen and their wives who want to escape, waiters who are ready to do it, hostesses who retreat because of fright... Everyone seems to have pressed the 1/12 slow down button.

Martin felt that his body was like a rusty machine, and the thought of turning his head required all his strength to turn a little.

Immediately afterward, the woman unhindered the child's headless body with both hands, and her hands began to glow with a dazzling pale green light, only to see that the child's bloody neck, the severed blood vessels began to extend green veins and quickly intertwine, and the skin of his whole body also grew green fluff.

The fluff grew rapidly, intertwined and overlapped with the veins of the blood vessels and spread outward, like a green velvet blanket woven by an invisible hand.

"Corpse liquid fungus blanket? ...... How could she use the 'Scepter' deck... Skill? ”

In a hidden corner of the hall, a stout, round-faced man spoke intermittently.

He is a member of the Sunflower Carriage's emergency response agency Seed, and is a prisoner who houses the Ring deck Hearts III, and he tries to make a move only to find that his body is moving more and more slowly, almost stagnant.

At this moment, a soft green light came from a private room on the second floor, illuminating the entire hall.

In the private room, Hines raised his cane, and the omniscient eye on it opened again, emitting a soft but bright green glow.

The bodies of the people who were illuminated by the green light regained their speed of movement, and it was as if they had been pressed the normal play button again, and they all moved in an instant.

Upon resuming operations, the member of the [Seed] quickly pulled out a small piece of almost transparent amber "glass" and threw it at the Murne.

The "glass" quickly thinned out when it came into contact with the air, and its area grew rapidly, and then, it surrounded the "fungus blanket" that spread from the corpse on her hands.

As the glass melts into the air, it becomes more and more transparent until it disappears. And in the area where it melts, the air becomes viscous and quickly undergoes a viscous-solidification transition, and transparent barriers begin to appear.

The fungus blanket was still growing rapidly, but it was confined by this transparent barrier, and finally grew into a huge mushroom blanket sphere along this barrier.

The fungus blanket became thicker and thicker, and soon obscured the inside of the sphere, but it could not be expanded from the barrier formed by the melting of the "glass".

The people who had regained their mobility calmed down a little after the initial panic, and their eyes showed some curiosity as they looked at the thick green cocoon in the center of the hall.

"Such a thing happened in the supposedly well-defended [Sunflower Carriage]! I don't think our personal safety is guaranteed! I want to complain to the city hall and the [Eden] headquarters! ”

A wealthy middle-aged businessman, who was somewhat bald, shouted as he ran towards the door, and in the confusion he had found that his young female companion had abandoned him and run away, although he also knew that the two were nothing more than a trade of gold and flesh, and he was also very angry.

"Please calm down first, the auction room has the top security system of Cavides, and it also has a corresponding plan for unexpected situations."

The hostess was still doing her best to calm the balding man's emotions, but Martin noticed a hint of disdain on her turned face.

Martin looked at Hines, who was still frowning, and it didn't seem like the end of the matter was over.

The balding man was still shouting, but a distinctive smell of perfume began to appear in the air of the hall.

The smell was warm and strong, like a gorgeous wildflower blooming by a tropical river, wafting out of the fungus carpet cocoon in the middle of the hall and quickly permeating the entire hall.

The aristocrats and wealthy merchants who were the first to come into contact with the smell of perfume showed expressions of enjoyment, closing their eyes and smiling at the corners of their mouths, as if they were in a depraved and happy paradise lost.

I don't know who started first, people hugged each other one after another, and kissed each other with intoxicated expressions, men and women, men and men, women and women......

In the various boxes on the second floor, there are some halos and balls of light of different colors, which seem to resist the strange smell of perfume.

Martin saw that in the private room opposite, the old man next to the blonde William held up a sea blue light barrier, enveloping the two of them.

On Martin's side, Hines's cane began to glow cyan, and Martin felt a cool, somewhat cold breath fit his body.

"Da... Da... Click..."

Just when someone in the hall had begun to untie his clothes and the scene was about to become out of control, in the corner, a thin man with black gloves on his hands walked towards the green calloon, and his well-made black leather shoes made a clear footstep.

He walked through the crowd of kissers, ripped off the gloves on his left hand, and stretched out his fingers towards the cocoon, only to see that his left hand was carved with incomprehensible symbols.

He whispered a syllable to the cocoon room:

"Torch!"

Immediately after, a complex circular circle appeared on the floor, covering the entire hall, surrounded by a circle of incomprehensible symbols, and a huge rune in the shape of [ᚳ] emerged from under the green cocoon, releasing a dazzling light.

Countless flames ignited out of thin air in the air of the hall, and the flames quickly turned green, as if they were consuming not oxygen but the smell of perfume that made countless forbidden thoughts gush out.

And the green fungus blanket cocoon room was also swept by the flames, and it became a huge fireball, and the flames burned out, revealing the scene inside.

The headless child's body had been burned into a piece of black charcoal, along with the fungus blanket, and was abandoned at the feet of the Mune woman.

And the woman didn't seem to be affected.

Her lolita-style dress with vertical black stripes and ruffles was still intact, and in her hand a silver agate perfume bottle appeared in her hand, its body glowing with a fiery red halo, like the scales of some kind of creature.

The intoxicating smell in the air faded away, and people looked at the people kissing in front of them with surprise and shame on their faces as if they were waking up from a dream, and then parted.

"It's really embarrassing..."Many nobles were secretly ashamed, but some male nobles didn't seem to care about what had just happened, but looked at the kissing partner with deep meaning.

"Anxon Runes...... Is it the Stigmata Recorder of the 'Seal' deck... I didn't expect Hines to cooperate with [Sunflower Carriage] to such an extent..."

The wooden woman said to herself, her expression still unchanged, and she looked up at Hine on the second floor, who was on a cane, and scolded loudly:

"What did you exchange with the Garden of Eden? Your rotten soul? ”

Hines listened to the scolding of the wooden woman to him, and his expression was indifferent.

"Omniscient tells me that twilight has come, and that the chasm of tomorrow has deepened to an almost insurmountable degree...... This is the only way. ”

Hines replied with a serious expression, as if he wanted to explain something to the wooden woman.

"Have you seen the Motherboard?"

The woman was a little surprised.

"We all know that [the motherboard] has been lost."

The woman was stunned for a moment.

"You went to the [Border of Morning and Dusk], didn't you?!"

"Hahaha...."

She seemed to think of something, and then began to laugh a little woodenly.

"Do you see how you died?"

She shouted at Hines. And she seemed to already know the answer, and she didn't need Hines to answer at all, and laughed more and more maniacally.

While they were talking, an ancient book appeared in the right hand of the man in handmade leather shoes.

The man slowly opened the book with his left hand engraved with runes, and he turned through page after page of words and illustrations with an ancient atmosphere, and in the process of flipping, the runes in his hands flickered and then slowly disappeared, like ink that had faded after a long time.

Just when the rune in the man's hand was almost halfway gone, he finally turned the page he wanted in this ancient book.

On that page was a huge classical oil painting, depicting a hidden garden, some strange-looking and vicious creatures were coming out of the pool, and on the shore of the pool, the goddesses and angels with fluttering dresses and holy expressions were expelling them, and in the corner of the painting, a painter wearing a wide hat was silently recording all this.

Underneath the picture is the name of the oil painting, which is called:

【Virtue Drives Out Sin】

There is also the artist's signature on the back, and the flowing font reads: Rich Layer.

The man stared at the lower left corner of the painting, where a nightmarish armless creature with a fat face and a demented face and a misshapen fishtail was desperately trying to swim ashore.

And on its forehead, engraved a name that contains a mystery:

§ Eurydice §

As if he had the answer he wanted, the man closed the ancient book and opened his left hand to the woman again.

I saw that all the remaining black runes on his left hand began to slowly fall off, floating in the air like musical notes, and finally formed a magic circle like a wheel, around the magic circle, two circles of black Ankson runes were slowly rotating in opposite directions, and the sound of a roulette wheel turning seemed to be heard in the air.

And in the middle of the wheel is the name of the nightmare just now.

The man's expression was solemn, and he yelled at the wooden woman:

"Expulsion!"
