Chapter 81: Fist Gauntlets (Asking for a Monthly Pass in the Last Half Day)
Not Rune's army...... "Anthony. Rhett's eyes lit up and he muttered to himself.
On the night of the attack, he dreamed many times, under repeated self-psychological suggestion, the ferocity and ferocity of the Rune soldiers became clearer and clearer each time, and each time it impressed him more and more, and gradually evolved into a nightmare that he could not get rid of, who knows, today, someone told him that it was not the Rune soldiers!
And judging from his subtle expressions, body language, and emotional state, Franca didn't lie, didn't deceive him!
It made him feel like a joke, and after all these years of suffering, he couldn't even get the murderer wrong. <
As a "psychiatrist", Anthony. Rhett sensed a sense of disillusionment, emotional instability, and a strong shock.

He instinctively used "appeasement" on himself.
In Anthony. As Red struggled to "save himself", Franka further explained:
"Either that battle was kept secret and that my friend of Rune couldn't reach it yet, or someone else attacked you."
Franka prefers the latter possibility, after all, for the Kingdom of Rune, it was only a small battle to eliminate a company, and Anthony's comrades did not have important people with enough weight to set a secrecy level at all.
"Who could it be?" Janna had asked the question after seeing the telegram, but neither Franca nor she could think of a reasonable answer for a moment.
She even guessed if it could be some "instigator" who deliberately instigated instigating infighting among the Indisian army in order to digest the potion, so that one of them pretended to be Rune and attacked Anthony at night. Red and his comrades.
But the difficulty is too high, and even the most powerful "instigators" have little hope of success, unless Anthony . Rhett's company found evidence of serious crimes committed by certain people, or formed a deep feud with another army because of a dispute on the battlefield.
"Yes, who will ...... Anthony who eased his emotions after being "appeased" by himself. Red repeated in a deep voice.
Rune's army attacked him and his comrades, he could understand it completely, although there was hatred, but it was not excessive, after all, the two countries were at war, this is a very normal thing, but why attack other people from other forces? Franka pondered
"Has your company ever abandoned an ally on the battlefield, or robbed a spoiler that shouldn't have been robbed?"
Anthony. Red thought about it for a moment and shook his head firmly, "No."
"Definitely not." Lumian added in a firm tone, "There's a lot going on here. Artois participated, apparently, not from the contradictions of friendly forces from outside. ”
"Have you ever violated the rules? Artois's orders, or what did he lose to lose?" Janna thought for a moment.
Anthony. Red shook his head again: "If I had, I wouldn't have been confused for so many years."
Apartment 601 fell silent, and Lumian remembered one of the things that Ms. "The Magician" had mentioned in her last reply, and said thoughtfully:

"Could it be a sacrificial ritual? A blood sacrifice to an evil god. ”
Ms. "Magician" mentioned that the "Sinners", a secret organization that believed in evil gods, probably appeared in the later stages of the war, because the war gave the evil gods more opportunities to infiltrate the world. Could what happened to Red and his comrades be an incidental part of one of those opportunities?
"Blood Sacrifice ......" Franka and Jaanna thought of Hug at the same time. Artois is supported by several evil forces.
He began to collude with the cult god believers in the war a few years ago and sacrificed one of his companies?
Anthony. Red was silent for a moment and said:
"The cultists of the evil gods disguised themselves as the Rune army. Artois cooperated in slaughtering us?"
"That's the most plausible explanation at the moment." "But who is the beneficiary?" Certainly not Yuge. Artois, who did not receive the gift until his death. ”
For a moment, no one could answer Franca's question.
After a few seconds, Lumian said: "This is one of the directions that needs to be investigated in the future. Artois was supported to become a member of parliament in relation to. ”
Hearing this, Jane Na told the original information she had received from the "Purifier", and finally said:
"The problem now is that General Philip, the most suspected, is dead, and all the clues to him are all broken."
"What a timely death." Franka laughed, "Was this cleared in advance?"
Lumian touched his chin and said slowly, "In the occult world, some death does not mean that you are really dead."
Ms. "Justice" mentions that there is such a sequence as the "deceased" in the Gift of the Evil Gods, who can use death to break away from their original destiny.
In the same way, if General Philip had used the "art of substitution", the one who died might not have been the real him.

Cooperated against Guillaume. Bene's Franka understood as soon as she heard it: "The art of substitution?"
"I don't rule it out." Lumien laughed, "Next, our goal is to investigate that General Philip and confirm his death, and even if he is really dead, there may be some clues left, just 'Purification.'"
Due to the restrictions, they were not able to find out. ”
Seeing that the partner discussed the direction of action in a few words, Anthony was overthrown, who had not fully recovered his cognition. Red felt that he was also infected, and he felt a little more confident.
He bowed his head lightly and said:
"Don't be too anxious, this matter must be complicated, I will first do preliminary intelligence gathering for General Philip and his family and friends."
Anthony. After Red leaves, Lumian sees that Franca is going to Springwater Street to find Gardner. Martin walked out of apartment 601 with her.
As he descended the stairs, he briefly mentioned the content of his communication with "Hela".
The more Franka listened, the more excited she became: "Okay, okay, you're going to become a Muggle, let's go and get in touch with April Fool's Day!"
"You're there, what are you expecting?" Lumian glanced at the guy.
Franka "tsk" smiled:
"There is a saying in my hometown, if you get drenched in the rain, you have to tear off someone else's umbrella, haha, just kidding, but don't you think it's a very funny thing? Although your appearance is a little harder, you can become beautiful with a simple adjustment, and when the 'Arsonist' potion is digested, do you really not consider a bottle of 'Pleasure'? Hey, forget it, there is still a certain risk of getting out of control if the route is less than the sequence 4 turns. ”
After giggling for a while, Franca, who came to the side of the street, restrained her smile and said:
"Moreover, you are one of the few people I can trust now, and if I can get your direct cooperation in investigating the 'April Fool's Day' issue, I will feel a lot more relieved, but it's a pity......"
"It's a pity ......" Lumien also regretted.

He turned to ask about Russell the Great, and expressed his confusion at the attitude of the members of the "Curly Baboon Research Society".
Franca's expression suddenly became strange, as if she was trying her best to keep herself from laughing.
After a moment, she exhaled and said:
"This matter is quite complicated, I can't say it clearly in a few words, I'll explain it in detail tomorrow or the day after tomorrow when I'm free, in short, you should be mentally prepared."
"How complicated can it be?" Lumian muttered, waved goodbye to Franca, and walked out into the street.
After returning to room 207 of the Golden Rooster Hotel, although he had already discovered the problem with Aurore's witchcraft notes and did not need to study it further, he still habitually pulled out the transcribed paper and looked at it with divergent thoughts.
As it approached the wee hours of the morning, Lumi moved with peace of mind and looked up at the calcium carbide lamp.
The glow there was tinted a little blue.
Huo Ran, the "doll" messenger in a pale gold dress, appeared, looking at Lumian coldly, as if he was trying to endure some emotion.
With a snap, she threw a pair of iron-black fists with multiple short thorns onto the table, the collision more wood-to-wood than wood-to-metal.
At the same time, a piece of paper folded into a square floated towards Lumian.
"Thank you." Although the "doll" messenger quickly disappeared and had no idea of communicating, Lumian politely thanked him.
Without touching the pair of gloves for a moment, he unfolded the paper and read the letter from the "magician" lady:
"The extraordinary properties of the Shadow Branches and the Lucky One have been made into magical items.
"How, did it completely change its shape to make it easier to carry? This is a masterpiece.

"It's not named yet, it's a bit more popular to call it 'Lucky Shadow Fist', and a little more stylish it's 'torture', and you can also take it yourself.
"Any target hit by it, whether it is injured or not, whether it is blocked with a weapon or not, will be stimulated a desire or emotion, as for which, it originally depends on your luck, but with the 'lucky one', you can simulate or imagine the corresponding desires and emotions in advance, so that the target has the reaction you want to see, and the success rate is very high, seventy or eighty percent.
"After a target is stimulated with a desire or emotion, when you hit him a second time, no new desire or emotion will arise, but there will be a chance to make the previous desire or emotion explode, which is an unbearable wave for most targets, and will put a great burden on their body, causing them serious damage and even making them temporarily lose their ability to resist.
"There's not a high chance of triggering a desire or emotion in every hit, but if you punch your target a few more times, it will always trigger, unless you're inflicted with bad luck that negates the 'lucky' trait.
"The most powerful thing about this pair of gloves is not its attack ability, but its defense, it is very strong and can block a blow from the 'Reaper' without damage (note: 'Reaper' is sequence 5 of the 'Hunter' path), of course, provided that the blow happens to hit the fist, in this case, it even hopes to use its own shattering or breaking to help you block a blow with divinity, probably sequence 4 level.
"Its negative effect is that when you carry it, it will make you lose your self-control, and the fluctuations of various desires and emotions will become stronger, and you need excellent patience to fight, and after you wear it, because it comes from the 'Tree of Shadows', you will suffer from the gaze of the other party from some hidden beings, although they can't really hurt you for various reasons, but they can drive some dangerous creatures to come to you, influence you or launch attacks.
"So, don't use this pair of gloves for too long every time, and immediately change the location when you run out, if you fail to do these two things, and you are targeted by the danger in the shadows, remember to stay in good shape, as long as you can block one or two blows, those dangerous creatures that can't really come will be rejected by the world and banished back.
"Ah, by the way, your two psychiatrists will let you have a final follow-up visit tomorrow afternoon at the old time."
