Chapter 484: Names are all targeted
Elysée is a Gorgon.
The bloodline itself is an unchangeable fact.
It is also a bitter and unforgettable hatred engraved in history.
When he was a child, he wandered with his mother to the borders of the Roman Empire and was hunted by slave hunters...... The Slave Hunters are far from capable enough to kill an adult Gorgon.
In particular, his mother's head was also taken away.
It was the most dangerous and collectible part of the Gorgon, just like the eyes of the Uchiha clan.
After being adopted by two relatives, Elyse was quietly placed in a safe estate and secretly raised.
But only a few years later, two relatives have also died, and they have not even left their bodies.
Elyse was never told by her two sisters what they were doing.
It's just that after many years, there is a suspicion that these two rare Gorgons are very likely to be used as shadows by a big person.
It could be a dead man, or it could be an assassin.
I don't know what it is, but they must end up being abandoned.
Elyse, who survived, always wanted to investigate this matter, but she was soft-spoken, and the little girl didn't have the opportunity to touch something deeper, and she didn't dare to expose herself easily.
After joining the Royal Academy, she spent all her time studying in order to enter the central circle of political power in Rome as an excellent graduate, so that she could have the opportunity to figure everything out.
In the dormitory, she lived a very relaxed life, just like an ordinary girl, spending her college years, as if she had no worries.
But this is destined to be an illusion.
Once she has found out and come into contact with the truth behind the scenes, she will do everything in her power to destroy, hinder, and kill the enemy.
The peaceful life will be completely torn apart, and the seemingly warm daily life is not worth the slightest nostalgia.
All along, Elyse has two goals, one is to find the truth and revenge, and the other is to find the remains of her loved ones.
In fact, these two goals may be the same.
Because Gorgon's skull is highly collectible, the Petrified Eye itself alone can be crafted into a highly valuable 'Petrified Amulet'.
As soon as Gorgon's relics were nearby, she would soon be able to detect them.
Now Bai Yu says that her path of revenge will begin here.
Elyse suddenly couldn't suppress the killing intent in her bones, as if it was cold-blooded and vicious floating from the depths of her soul, which clouded her reason with a layer of gloom and madness.
Then there was a hand that gently patted her back.
"Don't worry, I'll help you." Bai Yu passed the secret and promised: "I will witness your revenge with my own eyes." ”
Elyse's restless magic calmed down and nodded slightly.
The dance party ended, and the two stopped dancing.
The rest of the dance floor continued.
Bai Yu also returned to the bartender's bar and continued to work part-time, and several dances in a row didn't even count as a warm-up for him.
Several little girls were also tired after dancing, so they went to the food area to eat a buffet and replenish their physical strength.
The development of the masquerade is very smooth.
Many infatuated men and women have developed a good impression of each other under the influence of hormones, alcohol and atmosphere, and they can't see each other's identities through masks, and it is always too late to exchange a simple contact information with each other, and some young men and women who are anxious have left the banquet hall and gone to a more secluded place to get to know each other more deeply.
The masquerade ball held by the Earl of Eisenwell has become the scene of a large-scale blind date, and even if it is only a tenth of a night past, it is a fame earned in vain, and more and more participants will inevitably come in the future.
The essence of the masquerade is that no one will reveal their identity, so there is no host at the dinner, and as time goes by, the scene gradually becomes a little scattered.
The crowd around the White Elm bar had dispersed considerably, and he mixed himself a glass of wine, which Johnnie Walker poured over the ice, and the amber booze in the glass.
His eyes swept over the banquet hall, and so far, the entire masquerade had not seen the slightest danger.
But fate has shown that what should come will come.
Seeing that the banquet was coming to an end, a figure appeared on the high platform, and the lights came on, illuminating the somewhat pot-bellied nobleman, who wore a bird's beak mask and saluted the crowd.
As the man walked onto the high stage of the ball, the conversation unconsciously became a little lower, and the men and women saluted.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I wonder if you're happy with this masquerade tonight?"
Earl Eisenwell raised his glass: "It would be my pleasure to satisfy you." ”
At the end of the relaxed-based masquerade, he, as the organizer, always has to say something to flesh out the façade, say something concluding, and then look forward to the future.
However, the earl was quite approachable, did not have any aristocratic pretensions, and lacked the charisma of a leader, and he was well aware of his position, so he made a few jokes.
The goal is to point directly at the midwinter people, and everyone at the scene laughed, and the milk law and milk are all things left by the ancestors, which is a traditional virtue.
"It would be a pity that all of you are gathered here today, and it would be a pity if you just dispersed like this."
Earl Eisenwell clapped his hands: "I have taken it upon myself to release some of the family's collections as a prize." ”
The attendants opened the white curtains, and at the back of the stage were about a dozen exhibits of different types.
Some are works of art, some are books, and there is a piano, which is so varied that it can be seen that the Count has indeed invested heavily in order to stir up the atmosphere.
"Ladies and gentlemen, these collections today will be given away as gifts."
"But, of course, not everyone can get it."
"You have to complete these corresponding sequences to get it."
At this point, the Earl of Eisenwell also stepped down with a smile, and the questions he raised were not difficult, and they all needed to be completed by mutual cooperation, just like some small games in the blind date venue.
If you don't even have an ambiguous object, you can only hate yourself for not being able to shadow the doppelganger technique before these problems.
The Earl's expression was triumphant, and his face was full of 'plan'.
Bai Yu wiped his wine glass and looked at the difficult questions written on the fallen banners.
At the same time, he whispered and asked, "How is it?" ”
Elyse shook her head slightly, although she couldn't understand these collections, they were not tainted with Gorgon's unique magic.
The remains of her loved ones were not in these collections, and her gaze slowly shifted from the Count.
This was a surprise.
If not the Count, then who would it be?
The man hiding in the banquet hall was quite forbearing.
……
An open-air deck outside the banquet venue.
One wears a jackal mask, and the other wears a pitch-black mask, keeping a three-step distance.
"Something has appeared."
"Are you sure?"
"There's no mistake, it's in that portrait."
"I remember that this portrait was the work of Michelangelo, which is not only historic, but also quite valuable......"
"The work of art is not worth mentioning, compared to what is inside, the painting is just a disguise, and the artists of that era were often part of the star chaser, including Michelangelo."
"Let's go in, I've waited so long, it's time to complete the task."
"Hard? Thou? ”
"It's also very exhausting to deal with that group of noble ladies, and you don't know how hard it is to resist the desire to bite down on their necks."
……
Bang!
The wine glass in his hand was broken.
The roommate next to him was in a hurry.
"Are you alright?"
"What's wrong?"
"Feeling unwell? Do you want me to bite you twice to refresh yourself? ”
The familiar aura of magic, Elyse pressed her mask, and tears oozed from the cracks.
"I'm fine, maybe just a little tired."
Smiling at her roommates, she struggled to keep her emotions under control.
His gaze swept over the crowd, and the pupils under the mask suddenly lit up with a deep purple intent, catching the breath in the crowd, and finally, wrapped around a man's arm.
The latter clenched his right arm as if he had grasped a snake, and when he noticed it, he instantly turned his head and looked through the crowd.
At the same time, one hand pressed Elyse's head, avoiding the looking back.
Bai Yu handed over a handkerchief: "Wipe your eyes." ”
Elyse took the handkerchief, realizing that she was still in a hurry, almost being noticed by the other party, and the black masked man's perception was also quite keen.
"Hum ......"
Bai Yu's fingers tapped lightly on the bar.
Elyse's reckless move deserves praise.
It's a blessing in disguise.
He had just made out the bright red icon that suddenly lit up above the man's head, and the long red blood bar.
【Witch Hunter】
[Hazard level: 40]
This title is really targeted...... It's not good.
