Chapter 213: Split Body
When the middle-aged man stood up, he also took out something from his pocket with his right hand, a piece of monocle that seemed to be polished from crystal, and had an unremarkable appearance.
But all the *** members who were paying attention to this scene in the vicinity quickly got up and stepped back, and even two of them screamed, as if they could really avoid parasitism by distancing themselves.
The movements of several people suddenly stopped, and the black robes fell off from the violent struggle.
Even though their bodies froze in place, their eyes still terrified, their hands clutching uncontrollably in the air. A monocle of the same style appeared on their right hand, was held tightly, and slowly moved towards their right eye.
The middle-aged man smiled and tucked his monocle into his right eye socket, turned to the person in the red cloak next to him, and put his hand on her shoulder: "Don't you think this is a very dramatic scene?"
Esther tilted her head, and as she shook off her hand, the red cloak slid down the back of her head. She looked indifferently at the change in the shape of the middle-aged man, watching his gray hair become curly and black, his facial features became younger, and the long trench coat on his body gradually changed into a black classical robe.
Wearing the soft peaked hat on top of his head, Amon in front of him smiled and nodded at Esther, still maintaining the arrogant attitude of the middle-aged gentleman before.
Esther's figure disappeared in the blink of an eye, but did not go too far, but appeared directly at the back of several rows of stone chairs, she stretched out her right hand in the direction of Na Amon, but before Esther's palm could be closed, another figure appeared behind her, and put her hand on Esther's shoulder again.
This action seems to be a kind relief, but in fact it is a warning of deterrence.
It was a lady with gray hair combed into a ponytail, but now, she had the same smile on her face as Amun, and a monocle between her eyes.
The strange lady spoke, "If we are not targeting you, will you be afraid?"
Esther looked back and suddenly laughed, "I don't have to lie anymore, I'm scared, but I'm not as worried as everyone else."
The strange lady tugged at the back collar of the bright red cloak, using very unceremonious force, as if she wanted to tear it directly: "I'm a little curious, what is the key word to activate this cloak?"
Esther just sneered and closed her mouth tightly, the cloak did not actively devour the other party's flesh, which made her suspect that the power from the "true creator" had been "stolen" for a short time.
When did this happen? Could it be when the middle-aged man sat next to him?
The force on the back of the collar was released again, and the hand fell back to Esther's shoulder: "You see, even if you were involved with those traitors, your actions completely betrayed your father's expectations of you, and the body did not kill you completely. It's very forgiving, and you can be happier."
"It's funny, isn't it because He wants to use me?"
"You're a little smarter than we think, because you've lost something important and grown?" The doppelganger whispered, patting Esther on the shoulder, and a streamer suddenly flashed across the monocle.
Esther's right eyebrow throbbed violently, and a strong feeling of vertigo rushed into her mind, a buzzing sound that covered her otherwise awake consciousness, interrupting her desire to shift her position again.
She breathed heavily, and had to close her eyes tightly to suppress the sudden imprint that appeared under her eyes.
After the riot in the hall because of the monocle, Benjamin only helped the glasses, and did not make any unnecessary movements, allowing the few "thieves" who did not react quickly enough to be parasitized by the other Amon clones.
Only when they have finished parasitizing can it be easier to lock later.
Benjamin stared at the clone closest to Esther, since he appeared here in the form of that middle-aged man, Gad Jacob may have suffered misfortune, according to the time, it was probably the events of these two days.
Are these clones acting on their own initiative and trying to have some fun here, or are they being ordered by the ontology to target me? Against Esther?
root
It is impossible for the body to easily give up control of this ***, this is a good opportunity to trap the wandering "thief" in the palm of his hand, he cannot be aimed at this group of extraordinary people who participate in the "Hermit of Destiny".
Benjamin, however, could not confirm their true purpose.
He looked at the parasitic men, waiting for them to stuff their monocles into their sockets, and put a smile on their faces in exactly the same arc. Benjamin also curled the corners of his mouth slightly, his smile was similar to that of the other doppelgangers, but very different.
And when the gray-haired lady whispered something to Esther, seeing Esther's disdain in response, Esther suddenly closed her eyes and looked gloomy, and Benjamin's eyes narrowed slightly.
Well, it seems that their goal is obvious, the guy who occupies Gad's fake appearance even suppressed Esther's cloak at the beginning, and the doppelganger dared to do it......
Benjamin did not respond to the cries of the Jacobs and Zoroasd until they were completely parasitized and put on a monocle in their right eye, and Benjamin raised his hand.
His next move was also very simple, his left hand slapped the palm of his right hand, and an ancient Hermetian word shouted out of his mouth at the same time: "Time."
Esther finally got out of the dizziness and humming, and she clearly heard the lady next to her sigh, "He's too decisive, he thought he would play with us a little longer."
Before Esther could try to change places, a very small voice came directly into her ears: "You must always open your eyes and see who Benjamin is."
Esther's expression froze, the imprint in her eyes had not completely dissipated, and when she heard this, she had already subconsciously looked at Benjamin who was standing in the middle of the hall.
In the chaos of perception, there is a little bit that can swallow the black hole that fate sees.
Esther quickly closed her eyes again and lowered her head.
When Benjamin uttered those words, the "thieves" in the entire hall felt a strong sense of oppression welling up from the soles of their feet.
Silver light quickly spread from Benjamin's feet, filling the dial on the ground in the blink of an eye.
The shadow of the black pointer began to turn, and the distant and faint bell rang, causing all the people who remained in the hall to participate in this *** in a trance between the vibrations of the spirit.
When the figure of the doppelganger Amon appeared behind him, Benjamin only frowned and clapped his hands again.
The bell reverberated through the hall again, all the hour hands on the floor glowed silver, and a ghostly orchid outlined in golden symbols bloomed at Benjamin's feet.
The doppelganger's black robe continued to tremble, his figure began to distort, and the palm that wanted to touch the back of Benjamin's neck was also frozen in the air, but on that thin face, the smile deepened: "Your mission is almost over, Ben."
Benjamin was unmoved, but slapped his hand harder a third time.
Benjamin turned his head sideways and smiled at the doppelganger, his lake-green eyes reflecting darkness: "I know, but I have nothing to fear."
I've always known where I'm going, just as I've always known who I am.
Only she doesn't know.
The phantom of the ghost orchid floated from the ground, and the curling silver light turned into a tentacle-like long beard, poking out at the moment when several Amun's clones were frozen, quickly piercing through their figures.
The Amon clone behind Benjamin looked at Benjamin in surprise, and it was precisely because he knew "himself" that this clone felt incredulous about Benjamin's reply, but it was too late to say anything, his figure was completely shattered and blurred.
The ends of the whiskers are curled up, and several Time Worms are bound on them, which are no longer active. A few people who had just been parasitized had also fallen to the ground weakly, and although their breath was weak, they were all alive.
Several Time Worms were swept directly into the ground by the phantom, and the dial on the floor of the hall gradually converged with light, the rotating hands returned to calm, and the crowd gathered on the other side of the hall quickly calmed down.
The old man of Jacob's house
The leader coughed twice and gestured to everyone to find a place to sit down: "This is not the first time that His doppelganger has infiltrated, so don't panic."
"It's been thirty-one years since the last time, and most people haven't experienced it, so you can understand their uneasiness." The woman at the head of the Zoroasd family whispered, but her voice spread so far and wide that it could reach almost everyone's ears clearly.
Since it was something that had happened before, and there had been similar experiences, this made many people feel at ease, and as for the people who were suspicious in their hearts, after the two family leaders had appeased them, they would also pretend to be superficial.
But now there is another target, one that looks like it could be easily questioned and isolated.
Esther straightened the red cloak that had been dragged by the clone, and pulled the hood up again, shielding the prying eyes from those who no longer concealed their malice. Even if she didn't care about those people's doubts, she would feel uncomfortable under such onlookers.
When Esther leaned down to check on the gray-haired lady's condition, several black-robed men walked up quickly, vigilantly stopped her, and quickly carried the unconscious people away:
"I'm sorry, please stay away from these people and sit back in your original position, you don't need to be bothered here."
The other party's tone was very stiff.
Benjamin's expected development came, and Esther knew that she would soon have to face the interrogation of others - she was the closest person to Amun, but she was not directly parasitized? She even had further communication with Amon's clone, which was suspicious from head to toe.
The gift of the "True Creator" is a good statement, but it will only further irritate others, after all, this is the venue of the "Hermit Society of Destiny", not the Aurora Society.
Esther sat quietly back on the stone chair, but her gaze remained on the ground, not at Benjamin.
