Chapter 153: The Attack of the Cardinal Sacrifice (Third Watch)
Miss Puppet recalled for a moment in her mind, organized her language, and kept her thoughts flowing and clear:
"The time of my accident was around the fiveth, which was probably the first night of the bloodshed."
"That night, I vaguely remember that the pedestrian street was very active."
"But I went back to the shop early, stayed in the puppet factory all the time, and I remember never going out."
"At that time, I had just been promoted to the second rank [Puppet Master], and after trying to change careers, I became very excited about the power of the advanced characteristics, and I almost devoted myself to the study of puppets."
"The puppet factory is located in the block behind the old town of Walking Street, and most of the shops around it are wholesale warehouses with tin doors and simple and crude decorations, and few players come and go in the vicinity."
"It's basically impossible to attack me in my puppet factory."
"There are my rules there."
As soon as these words came out, Chen Ye was slightly surprised, and his eyes when he looked at Miss Puppet suddenly changed.
Originally, I thought that I should be the first group of players to own real estate in the pedestrian street.
But it turns out that sometimes luck is much more important than hard work.
Some players already have their own real estate at the beginning.
However, thinking of that Hua Shao, Chen Ye suddenly felt that Miss Puppet's luck seemed to be nothing compared to the real European Emperor.
When Chen Ye heard this, he suddenly stopped and asked suspiciously:
"Since you're in your own shop, protected by the rules of the title deed, it should be very difficult to be attacked, why is this happening?"
Combined with what Miss Puppet said......
The time of the accident, April 5th, the night that never sleeps.
The location is located in the Doll Factory, which is the property of Miss Puppeteer.
Sudden attack and loss of control......
It's a little hard to believe.
After all, the rules of the real estate are very protective of the shopkeeper.
Title deeds generally have protective rules.
If it is an aborigine, most of them will not do anything in the target territory because of the rule of "seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages".
But if it's a player......
To do this on the fifth day of advent is not ordinary!
Miss Puppet thought for a moment and said, "It's not entirely impossible to be a player. β
"In order to earn more revenue from the store, I once released the location of the store on the forum."
"Maybe it's some kind of mind control type of customer, pretending to be a normal guest, visiting a puppet factory, and suddenly launching a special means of mind control on me."
"The rule of the puppet factory is that you can't attack, and if you break the rules, you will be besieged by the puppets."
"Theoretically speaking, if the mental attack skills successfully control me in a very short period of time, and then order the puppets in the factory to stop moving, it can also be achieved."
Chen Ye's eyes narrowed:
That is to say...... What attacked you, more likely to be a player? β
Miss Puppet thought carefully for a while, then nodded:
"I can't say for sure, but I remember the last moments, where I intuitively felt like the threat was coming from the player more than the native...... Everything happened so quickly that it seemed like a sudden loss of control of self-consciousness, and the whole process seemed premeditated. β
Chen Ye bowed slightly, he thought that Miss Puppet's judgment was not completely unreasonable.
The actions of the aborigines are very strict with the rules of play.
If it is in the form of a regular collision, it will inevitably cause a large movement.
But according to Miss Puppete, she was concentrating on transforming the puppet before she remembered, and she didn't remember what happened around her very clearly.
When you're focused on doing things, it's easy to ignore the changes around you.
But if the aborigines break into the store and collide with the rules, there will inevitably be a lot of noise.
It's unlikely that Miss Puppet wasn't completely impressed by this.
So......
In all likelihood, the attack was premeditated.
The enemy lurking in the shadows, with a full understanding of the operation mechanism of the puppet factory, created targeted means, and used unexpected ways to surprise the puppet lady, quickly controlled the puppet lady, and then ordered the puppet in the factory to be released from the alert.
To be able to do this, it is unlikely to be aboriginal, more like a planned player!
Things are getting confusing again.
When he was in the Blue Mountains Cafe, he used [Voice of the Dead] to learn from Northrend's corpse that the mastermind behind the scenes was obviously Feng Wasrend. Lucius, the bishop of the Church of the Sun who should have died a hundred years ago, is a powerful and mysterious native.
However, the assailant who controls Miss Puppet is closer to the player.
What's behind that?
Is it an aboriginal or a player?
The atmosphere grew heavy again.
"I'm sorry to trouble you." Miss Puppet said apologetically again.
"You don't need to apologize to us, this is an enemy who has appeared in the shadows, and you are just a victim." Chen Ye said calmly, "On the contrary, you can provide so much information, which is just more valuable. β
Miss Puppet's originally dilated and dim pupils suddenly seemed to have a bit of brilliance.
Dawn couldn't help but smile knowingly, and looked at Miss Puppet softly:
"If you don't mind, you can continue to stay in church for a little longer."
"In the past few days, you should also know that that pedestrian street has been reduced to a polluted paradise, and it is full of dangers, even if you can get back to your puppet factory smoothly, but the neighborhood is very unsafe."
"Why don't you just stay in the church for a while and see when the pollution is lifted and you can go back."
Miss Puppet was silent for a moment, didn't say anything, just nodded silently.
That's when it happened.
Chen Ye suddenly felt the prying gaze coming from the spirit again.
This time, he could feel the dark gaze, with a hint of ill will.
However, unlike the pure evil thoughts thrown by the cardinal priests, it seems that some conspiracy is secretly born.
"Not the bishop?"
Chen Ye felt that this gaze came from a different existence.
In the eyes, the mixed emotions are more complicated, but they are all ill-intentioned.
This feeling is not only for Chen Ye, but also for Chenxi and Miss Puppet around him.
Faced with this different sense of threat......
Chen Ye remained silent, suddenly looked out the window, and said with a concerned look:
"The wind outside is a little cold, it may not be good for the body, I'll go shut it down."
The moment he closed the window, Chen Ye locked the specific direction of the peeping through the aura, and with the help of the light and shadow reflected in the glass, he saw the figure clearly!
It was a man of about twenty-five years of age, dressed in a black gown and with an elegant demeanor. Arriving in the auditorium as a guest, he worshipped, and while talking to the priest, he sneaked a glance into the room in the common room.
"Players?"
Chen Ye's eyes moved, and through the other party's demeanor and actions, he immediately saw the difference from the aborigines.
Compared to the more rigid aborigines who follow the rules of playing, the player's characteristics are too easy to recognize.
If you don't have professional training and don't have enough acting skills, you can see it almost at a glance.
Chen Ye's eyes narrowed slightly, and he suddenly realized something:
"Northrend is pure cannon fodder."
"There is more than one such cannon fodder, and there may be many more."
"Except for the person behind the scenes, whose identity has not yet been determined, I don't know how many players are lurking in the shadows, serving the real behind-the-scenes."
"There are more enemies than expected......
Moreover, with the idea conveyed by this gaze, the other party even has the intention of doing something in the church!
That's a bit intriguing.
If you dare to do it inside the church, you don't dare to do it with a few brushes!
Chen Ye secretly gestured to the morning light with his eyes.
"Ding!"
Suddenly, in the pocket of Dawn, there was a prompt sound of a blood-colored mobile phone.
She hurriedly took it out and looked at it, and her eyes suddenly moved.
The player who sent this message turned out to be Chen Ye next to him?
[Chen Ye: I have a plan later, and I need you to cooperate with me a little. γ
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Dusk sinks to the earth, and night falls quietly.
The crimson moonlight shone through the window screens into the dark auditorium, and there was silence all around.
Tonight.
Chen Ye stayed in the church.
According to Dawn, the church is a sanctuary place, and it is safer to stay here than to pollute the paradise.
They were planning a trip to the plantation tomorrow.
Since the copy of the plantation has the word "tainted", it means that the profession of the [Sun] sequence happens to have the characteristic of restraint.
Therefore, Chen Ye plans to team up with Dawn to see if he can clear the [Contaminated Plantation].
Judging by the size of the plantation, if all the trees there could be cut down......
The hull materials needed to make ghost ships are no longer a problem.
That's when it happened.
In the church, there was a sudden sound of poet-like singingβ
"Sleep deeply! Sleep! β
"Children in the Dark......"
"You will wander in dreams, let go of worldly troubles, and gain spiritual liberation!"
Layers of chanting echoed in the empty church.
Suddenly......
Chen Ye felt a strong sense of sleepiness, he couldn't help lowering his head, and his hands naturally hung down, as if he had entered a state of sleep.
In the next second, his body suddenly stood upright like a zombie, his eyes closed, as if he had entered a state of sleepwalking, and involuntarily pushed open the door of the auditorium and came to the semi-circular Roman Forum outside the church.
Under the crimson moonlight, the square was almost full of wanderers sleeping.
The last time the church was bombed, it didn't stop the wanderers from gathering here to seek refuge.
Chen Ye stepped directly on the faces of these wanderers and walked towards the outside of the block.
When his figure was drowned out by the dim street, his eyes suddenly opened.
Under the crimson moonlight, a dark figure was shrouded in a red hood.
In a daze......
Chen Ye's spirituality seemed to suddenly feel a warning of danger, and he suddenly opened his eyes.
The next second,
His pupils reflected the figure of the red-clothed priest.
The corners of the red-clothed priest's mouth were slightly hooked, and a hoarse voice sounded:
"It's time to go to hell, demon!"
