Chapter 149: The Assassin
Suzanne looked at Lumian, who was wrapped in red flames and rushed towards her, frantically drawing energy from the vendors, pedestrians, and tenants hanging from the trees, trying to regain her fighting ability as quickly as possible.
In the process, she was not worried that Lumian would really hurt herself, because she was at the top of the canopy, and the other party could not climb up at all, and she was now equivalent to becoming one with the "Shadow Tree", and the attack without divinity would at most cause her a small injury, and she would not be able to kill her, or even be severely injured.
Kicking and kicking, Lumian ran wildly to an area occupied by branches and vines, where one or two hundred humans were already hanging.
The brownish-green things tried to wrap around him and pierce him, but they were all ignited by the crimson flames on his body, and the queen retreated.
At this moment, there was a rumbling sound from the ground, and the brown-green giant tree suddenly sank down, and in an instant, it was only seven or eight meters high.
This brought about a violent shaking of the whole wilderness, and Lumien staggered and could not move forward for a while.
The rumbling, earthquake-like movement made the crystal chandelier in the banquet hall shake to a certain extent, and most of the people present showed frightened expressions, and those who reacted quickly even hid directly under the long table covered with white cloths.
Today's rotation protects Yu Ge. Artois is a team of half-breed Imre, Valentine, and a "warrior" named Antoine.
They sensed the anomaly at the same time, and tacitly separated Imre, who ran to the window and looked at the source of the problem.
In the direction of Randy Street, Nightingale Street, and White Coat Street, many of the houses were tilted to a certain extent, but they had not yet collapsed, and their surfaces were more or less covered with brown-green branches and vines.
Compared to them, the brown and green giant tree located in the chaotic street is even more eye-catching, and it continues to sink with many nodules and flowers.
This scene lasted only a few seconds before returning to "normal", as if a failed oil painting had been overlaid with another work.
"What happened?" Hugue. Artois walked over to the window and asked calmly.
Imlay didn't hide it, suppressed his voice slightly, and replied calmly, "There has been an anomalous incident in the area of Ransom Street, Nightingale Street, and White Coat Street."
Randy Street, Nightingale Street, White Coat Street...... Jana, who had just approached the nearby window and had not been able to see the scene just now, was stunned when she heard it.
Two names popped into her mind: Charles, Franka......
Did they encounter an anomalous event? Janena's heart sank slowly, and she instinctively set her eyes on Huge. Artois.
She saw the corners of the congressman's mouth curled up covertly, and it seemed that it was a little difficult to hide the joy in her heart.
It's him...... He and the cultists did it! Jana instantly made a judgment, her eyes darkened a little, and an uncontrollable despair surged in her heart.
In the face of the well-prepared attack of the cultists, in the face of such an anomaly, will Franka and Charles still be spared?
With my current strength, can I rush over and help? Will it drag them down?
At this moment, Jane felt that the "pillars" that supported her life, after losing her mother, were about to lose two friends who stood firmly by her side.
And this is all harmed by the believers of the evil gods, it is Yuge. Artois is harmful!
This reminded her of the words that Franka had said when she had taken a potion and became an "Assassin", when she warned herself not to come into contact with the evil gods: "Coming into contact with the evil gods will inevitably bring disaster." Such a person will not only become crazy and lose his original personality, but will also drag the people around him, whether they recognize it or not, and fall into the darkness together.
"If those people are not removed, the influence of the evil gods will always remain, and the pain will come again and again, and it will never end."
And now, Huge. Artois is the source of all the disasters in the market area.
Jaina lowered her head, not daring to let herself look at Yuge again. Artois, afraid that the pain and hatred in his eyes that could not be concealed would be detected.
She hates it!
But she can only tell herself that her brother Julian is still alive, but he has a certain mental problem, and there is hope that he will be cured
In this case, if he loses his sister again, it is likely that he will really go crazy and cannot be saved.
When the feast was over, and when the factory owners had paid off all their debts, I would take Julian out of the market area and the botanical garden, and go to live elsewhere, avoiding the pain that would follow...... Jaanna constantly reassures herself with such words and does not let the emotions in her heart explode.
"Why are there any anomalous events?" Hugue. Artois confronted Imre, Valentine, and Antoine.
Imley smiled bitterly, "I saw that tree just now, it has appeared several times in the history of Trier over the years, but it has not been completely resolved."
Ever since he joined Trier's team of "purifiers", he has known that there are many dangers hidden in Trier's underground that are difficult to truly purify, and the brown-green giant tree is one of them.
He, his bosses, and his teammates couldn't figure out why Trier had been built on those things in the first place.
Not equal to the lattice. Artois questioned again, and Imret added, "Now that the anomaly has been discovered, it won't be long before it is put to rest."
As a member of the elite team of "Purifiers", he knew that Trier was different from the capitals of other countries, because of the long-term existence of those dangers underground, so the past royal family and the current parliamentary government agreed that the two churches would secretly send an angel or each put a "0" level seal to Trier in case of accidents.
Of course, periods of very strong royal and governmental dynasties also make the angels of the Church shy away, for example, during the time of Russell the Great.
Once the anomaly brought by that strange giant tree is exposed, it will soon usher in a thunderous blow, and although it cannot be completely destroyed, it will at least allow it to rest for a long time.
After a brief but violent settlement of the "Shadow Tree", the wilderness became stable again, Gabriel, Pavard. Neeson and the others were still hanging from the branches, and their faces began to turn white and black, as if they were exhausted.
Lumian steadied himself and continued to run towards the brown and green trees that were not far away, with a crimson flame.
At this time, Susanna. Matisse recovered considerably, his eyes reflecting the figure of Lumian, waiting for him to attack as soon as he was within range of his current abilities.
Behind Lumian, a shadow broke away from its original owner and quietly pounced on his vest.
That's Charlotte. Calvino, she's "playing" the shadow!
She was not the presiding officer of the ceremony and was far away from the canopy, she had not suffered from backlash and strong pollution before, and she was not much weaker, and when she saw Lumian turn around, she immediately hid and used her acting skills to wait for a sneak attack.
At this moment, a "bang" of gunfire was heard in the distance.
The iron-black bullet, which was too far away and not accurate enough, flew past Charlotte's body, but also stopped her from trying.
Dressed in a women's shirt, light-colored breeches, and red boots, and armed with a brass revolver, Franka appeared at the edge of the wilderness, swearing at Lumian's back, "Damn, don't you treat me as a teammate?"
See that the neighborhood scene has returned to "normal", Yu Ge. Artois returned to the center of the banquet hall with a golden champagne, stood in front of everyone, and gave a speech according to the process: "Ladies and gentlemen, it is a pleasure for you to be here for this condolence luncheon, please let us first observe a minute of silence for those who have unfortunately died...... As you have just seen, there has been another accident in the market area, we cannot continue like this, we must re-establish a more effective and flexible mechanism to deal with similar situations.
"I think you all hate and fear the accident, because your loved ones may have died in the accident, or they may have been seriously injured, or they may have been stimulated by it, and they may have had a mental breakdown and become a madman......
Hearing this, Jane raised her head and looked at Uguetuatois again.
He just said, "I was stimulated, I had a nervous breakdown, and I became a madman"!
Under normal circumstances, even if the situation is enumerated, it should not be said in such detail, and a simple sentence of mental disorder is enough.
So, Huge. Artois knew that someone would have a nervous breakdown from the explosion of a chemical plant, become a madman, and then be afraid of others
I don't know if he did the same good deeds, deliberately mentioning it explicitly in his speech? It's like a criminal who likes to return to the scene to admire his masterpiece? Jana's heart was instantly filled with emotions of absurdity, hatred, and fear.
If her guess is true, Julian's mental breakdown is likely to be influenced by the cultists!
"Can he be cured like this, and can he be saved?
"If I can't cut off the source, even if I leave the market area with Julian, who has been cured, there may still be hidden dangers and problems in the future!" Jane had never been more desperate than she was now, and it seemed that no matter how she went, she couldn't get out of the darkness.
Her childlike holes gradually enlarged and clearly reflected Yu Ge. The figure of Artois.
And to hear Hugue. After Artois faintly pointed the finger at the two churches, Imre, Valentine, and Antoine all lowered their eyes slightly.
The Xenodimensional dimension that comes with the "Shadow Tree" has been broken everywhere, or flowing with pitch-black slime, or a piece is directly missing, as if it has been thrown into the endless void.
Suddenly, a little light lit up at the Starlight Gate, which had shrunk back into a gap.
It grew brighter and brighter, as if it had become the sun, illuminating every part of the space with extraordinary clarity and no shadows.
A female figure in a white robe inlaid with gold thread appeared at the source of the light, she seemed to be composed of pure light, translucent, her eyes were green, and her face was beautiful but holy.
Saint-Viève, patron angel of Trier.
In the middle of the hall, Yu Ge finished his speech. Artois continued to carry the glass of champagne and wandered among the different families of the victims, warm, cordial and credible.
Janna closed her eyes, walked slowly to the long table covered with white cloths, picked up a plate, put some food in it, and then took a long silver fork to use.
As she ate, she approached Hug slowly and slightly dazedly. Artois.
After closing the distance between the two sides to two meters, she made a gesture that she wanted to talk to Mr. Councillor.
And Yu Ge, who was scattered and surrounded by team members and protected by the official extraordinary. Artois also noticed Jana, smiled kindly, and waited for her to come to her.
Jane passed by her secretary Rhone and stood on Hugue. Artois is a step away.
Before the two could begin to talk, another tremor and roar came from underground, and the direction of Chaos Street and White Coat Street seemed to be much brighter.
Cassandra and Hugue who care about the results. Artois and the others followed their instincts, and at the same time turned their bodies sideways and looked out the window.
Seeing this, Jane closed her eyes again, and then, she stepped out, towards Huge. Artois raised the silver fork in his hand!
The emotions that had been pent up in her heart during this time then exploded: You despicable politician who has brought disaster and darkness to the market area!
You cult god whose conscience has been eaten by dogs!
You bastard who killed my mom and drove my brother crazy!
Die now!
If you don't die, the pain in the market area will not end, and the darkness will always be over here, and the sun will not rise.
Yes, you are surrounded by cultists and protected by official Extraordinaires who can make anyone who tries to deal with you lose their lives here, thus deterring them from attacking.
[In view of the general environment,
But what if one of the Assassins didn't want to leave alive!
Even if I can't kill you, I want your people to expose the gift of the evil god and be arrested by the official extraordinary!
Jaina poured all the hatred in her heart, all the unwillingness, and all the pain into the long-handled silver fork in her hand, and used the assassin's "full force" to stab at Yuge. Artois turned sideways his right eye exposed.
At this moment, she saw the surprise, dazedness, and fear on the other party's face, and saw Huge. Artois hurriedly looked at Cassandra and tried to call for help.
And Cassandra was blocked by the "purifier" Imre, who took a diagonal step at some point
Sight, not being able to detect what was happening in the first place.
With a pop, the long-handled silver fork in Jana's right hand plunged deep into Yuge. Artois's eye sockets went straight into his brain.
Hugue. Artois's expression froze, and the previous surprise, confusion, and fear were still frozen on his face, and there was no time to change much, only a deep sense of despair.
Jaina watched the bright red blood splatter and gush out, and looked at Huge. Artois's face gradually collapsed in the light, and he smiled and closed his eyes as he looked at the red sparks around him that he didn't know whether it was the muzzle of a gun or his supernatural ability, and gave up resistance.
Mom, I saw the light.
