The rain outside the shelter kept falling from the dome in the sky, and the ground was as smooth as a layer of mirrors, and as the raindrops fell, the mirrors appeared layer upon layer of ripples.

At this time, the sound in the rain shelter had lasted for more than three minutes, and the sound of the collision of hard objects and the muffled snort of pain also stopped, and the old Henry, who was a little disheveled, dragged his bruised hands to Xia Xiu and bowed deeply to him.

"Thank you very much, Mr. Holmes."

"No thanks."

The blonde young man replied with a warm smile, and at the same time he looked at Hughes Robin, who was no longer human, and the other party was still breathing,

Looking at Hughes Robin, who was dying, he decided to play with his helpful spirit.

"Mr. Henry, can you come with me to the other side." Xia Xiu pointed to another distant rain shelter in the opposite corner and said to Old Henry.

"He ······"

Old Henry looked at Hughes who was dying, his expression was very entangled, even if he would go to prison for murder, he would never let Hughes Robin go, he was just struggling with whether what he did would affect the respectable detective in front of him.

"Mr. Henry, come with me first, and the show will be about to begin."

Seeing the sincere expression on the face of the blonde youth, old Henry could only follow the other side towards the rain shelter in the distance opposite, and on the way to the other party, he once again made sure that the other party was not very human.

Obviously, the two of them were walking in the rain, but the rain could not soak the two of them, and their surroundings seemed to be covered with an invisible barrier.

Soon, old Henry went to the opposite side with Xia Xiu.

And after arriving at the rain shelter, Xia Xiu calculated the time, and it was almost time.

Xia Xiu smiled at the somewhat absent-minded old Henry:

"It's time for the show, you can look back at the rain shelter opposite."

"What ·······"

Old Henry looked back at Hughes Robin's rain shelter with a blank expression, and in the darkness of the rain, a bright light suddenly appeared, followed by a rapid grinding sound, and a rampage mud truck rushed out of the rain out of control.

Bump –

A loud bang sounded, and the runaway mud truck crashed headlong into the rain shelter, and then the entire rain shelter collapsed, and Hughes Robin was directly created into a mud by the mud truck.

"Whew-"

A large bloodhound with white fur and red eyes floated like smoke from the direction where the mud truck was.

Jia Mu soon came to Xia Xiu's face, and then looked at his boss with a flattering expression.

"Well, good driving skills." Xia Xiu rubbed Jiamu's dog head with satisfaction.

That's right, the mud truck just now was driven by Jiamu, and he followed the instructions of his boss to "pass" one from the construction site where the mud truck was parked in the distance, although it was the first time to drive, but he drove quite well.

Don't ask why a dog can drive, everyone has three heads, how can you drive a car.

At this time, old Henry was looking at Hughes Roger, who was killed by the mud truck in front of him, with a stunned face, and in the face of this sudden scene, his brain had not turned for a while.

"Fate······

Old Henry's ears sounded with the exclamation of the blonde youth, and he subconsciously turned his head to look at the other party.

"Mr. Henry, it's time to settle the pay"

Looking at the blonde young man with a warm smile on his face, old Henry took a deep breath, and he said to the other party with a resolute face:

"Even if you want my soul, I will not hesitate to give it!"

Xia Xiu was stunned, and then he seemed to understand something, he shook his head at old Henry and smiled:

"I'm not a demon, what do I want my soul for?"

Xia Xiu had already felt the disturbance of the EVE particles at this time, and he set his eyes on Old Henry's watch stained with the blood of the enemy, which was turning into an anomalous item at this time.

"And what do you want?"

Old Henry looked at the blonde young man in a puzzled tone, and then he saw the other man pointing to the watch he was holding in his right hand.

"I want that watch in your hand."

"Are you sure ······"

Old Henry raised his right hand with some uncertainty, the watch was only a cheap watch made of rough manufacture, and the mirror of the watch was already stained with the blood of the enemy.

"All I need is the watch in your hand."

"If that's what you want······"

Old Henry looked at the blonde young man with a complicated gaze, and then he held the watch in both hands, bent down and bowed to hand it in front of the other party.

Xia Xiu took the watch, and he smiled at old Henry:

"I've completed your commission, and I've already received the reward, by the way, you'd better not make a statement about this matter to anyone, otherwise it may cause unnecessary trouble."

Listening to the blonde youth's instructions, old Henry, who bent over, subconsciously straightened his back and wanted to say something more to the other party.

"Mr. Holmes······"

Unfortunately, when old Henry looked up again, there was no one in front of him.

········

Inside a hostel near Stockholm.

Xia Xiu played with the cheap watch in his hand, and he could feel that the watch had completely turned into an anomalous item, and this was the ticket that the [Crimson King] gave him.

"Everything is empty, everything is the same, everything is past."

Xia Xiu slowly recited these words, and as his words fell, the pocket watch in his hand began to gradually rust and decay, and the reddish-brown rust soon covered the entire watch, and then the rusty watch began to dissipate, and a yellow card appeared in his hand.

Whoever is able to reach the highest mountain is entitled to laugh at all the sad games and bleak solemnity. 】

A line of text flashed over the card, and then new handwriting resurfaced on the card.

[Welcome to "Ensemble Interpretation"! 】

[Yellow-clothed courtier, lying high on the throne of the god of thorns; Looking down, he gently flicked the puppet silk; Beings without a heart also follow the music of delusion; Dance the blind dance steps together, obsessed for a long time; Sinking in blood and fire, killing, laughing madly; The noose is getting tighter and tighter, suffocating in obscurantism! 】

[Current Faction: Not Selected]

[Number of Apostasy Remaining: 1 (Only one rendition is allowed)]

[Apostasy]: After the faction is selected, you can use [Apostasy] to re-elect the faction, after which the reward will be further reduced by half. (Loyalty and betrayal are enduring narratives!) ）

Looking at the yellow card representing [Yellow Rigoletto] in his hand, a deep luster flashed in the eyes of the blonde youth, and he could feel that this yellow card had been bound to him, and he could now put the yellow card into his body.

"Make a deductive query."

Xia Xiu opened his mouth and said to the yellow card, and after he finished speaking, the yellow card immediately projected a holographic projection interface.

[First Performance: "Dragon Slayer"]

[Second Performance: "Alice's Game"]

[Third Performance: Unannounced]

[Fourth Performance: Unannounced]

[Fifth Performance: "The Fall of Icarus"]

[Sixth Performance: Unannounced]

Sure enough, except for the first, second, and fifth performances, the renditions are still unannounced.

Xia Xiu was not surprised by this result, and the sequence of "Ensemble Interpretation" was that the first performance was held at the same time as the fifth performance, followed by the second and third performances.

The unannounced rendition is because the [Crimson King] feels that it is not yet time, so he stops the performance.

Xia Xiu's mind began to think about the information about the deduction.

"Dragon Slayer" ended too quickly in his last life, and he didn't know the specific details, but Mr. Night didn't get the [Barumke Holy Sword] this time, so the other party shouldn't be able to find the Destined Dragon Slayer through the Holy Sword, and there is a high probability that the foggy haze incident will not happen, so now the white card is safe.

"Alice's Game" has already had some traces to be found earlier, and the six rabbits representing the [Mr. White Rabbit Mod] have disappeared in the Deer Yard earlier, and they may have been recalled by Agul, one of the seven Alices, which also means that the Alices are gradually waking up.

Xia Xiu knew what the next three unannounced performances were, especially the third performance, and he had made a lot of preparations for the third performance earlier.

The third performance will be a big gamble for Xia Xiu, if the bet wins, then the [great cause] that he needs for the fourth stage [crowner] will be gathered in advance, and [great cause] is the prototype of [deeds spread].

Terra's most famous cause and deeds are the Twelve Trials of Hercules, which represent the power of the Twelve Resurrections of the Dead and the Twelve Arms.

[Great cause] is the anchor point for the thaumaturgists to crown their authority, and when the pheromones possessed by the thaumaturgists themselves reach a terrifying equivalent, their spiritual projection in the Aetheric Ocean will change into [Information Form], which is the prototype of the [Crown].

The [Crowner's] spirituality is the [Counseling Authority], and they will gain the terrifying power to control the [Aetheric Ocean], and through the three laws of thaumaturgy, the [Crowner] can modify the Environmental, Biological, and Physical Advisors according to their authority······

[The crown] needs to gain more authority by combining various information, and finally evolve by extracting other information. And the message that can anchor the [crown] and bless the [crown] can only be a transcendent [cause].

With the blessing of huge information, the pheromones transmitted by the [Crowner] itself will be ten thousand or even millions of times more than ordinary people, so ordinary people or weak people will not be able to look directly at [Crown], and their brains will not be able to comprehend the huge flood of information in an instant.

And now, the [Great Cause] anchor that can lead to the [Crowner] is appearing in front of Xia Xiu, how can he not be moved.

"Piercing ·····"

Xia Xiu's mouth slowly muttered the name of the third interpretation, and his blood couldn't help but start boiling and trembling at the thought of what he was going to do next.

"Whew-"

Xia Xiu let out a breath of white air.

If he wants to get that [great cause], he needs a precondition, which is that he must win the first or second rendition, and only then can the sub-plan be carried out.

Xia Xiu quickly calmed down the excitement in his heart, and he set his eyes on the fifth performance: "The Fall of Icarus".

This rendition is related to the "workers' strike" that took place in the Daevite Empire, and the white card of the rendition led millions of people at the bottom of the Daevite to revolt against the relentless exploitation of the empire and [factories].

The substitution of white cards in this game is very fast, and its substitution conditions are very simple.

When the leader, the current white card, dies, as long as someone is willing to lead the people to continue to resist, then he is the white card holder.

Ironically, the red card was in the hands of the Daevite leader.

Therefore, the red card does not hesitate to show the card, and the white card can only choose to show the card because of its own position.

The result of this interpretation naturally does not need to say much, the leader of the Daevite Empire is the [Miracle One] who stands at the top of the thaumaturgists, and the holder of the white card is just an ordinary person living in a deformed society of transcendent openness and abnormal power.

The name of the rendition is already obvious, the wings of Icarus will never touch the sun, and under the anomaly rule of the Daevite Empire, the sun will never shine on them.

This rendition can see the bad taste of the [Crimson King].

He gave false hope to the people living under the oppressive rule of the Daevite Empire, and that hope was like the wings of Icarus: they had to fly in mid-air and could not stop, and if they flew too low, the wings would touch the sea, and when they got wet, they would become heavy, and the people would be dragged into the abyss; If you fly too high, the feathers on your wings will catch fire from your proximity to the sun.

The fearless and ignorant "Icarus" flew towards the sun under his evil taste, and burned again and again.

The Fall of Icarus has the fastest iteration rate of all Ensemble Holders, with a full 569 white card holders.

The people of the Daevite Empire are covered by the dark sun, and what is even more tragic is that in the transcendent social structure of Terra, even the flame of rebellion is only the evil taste of the Scarlet King.

The rebellion of the Icarus brought not hope, but deeper despair.

Bloody repression, book-burning campaigns, seed factories, alienation education······

This is how the Daevite Empire dealt with the rebels.

Coincidentally, there was also a rendition in the Far Eastern Oretin Empire, and the white card holder of the interpretation was none other than the Emperor Augustus, the emperor who sat on the terrible weapon of war in [Constantinople] and began to centralize his power.

The increasingly extreme heterogenealogy regimes of the Daevite Empire and the centralization of the Oretin Empire deeply stimulated the Kingdom of Heaven.

Faced with the tyranny of the Daevite Empire and the growing military threat of the Oretin Empire, there is only one path before the Kingdom of Heaven: war.

Liberate the people of the Daevites through war, and unravel the frenzied military expansion of the Oretin Empire through war.

And the "Ensemble Interpretation" of the [Crimson King] is the fuse that intensifies the war, what he wants is a war that affects the whole of Terra, and it is the cannibalism of human beings!
