Chapter 48: The Tragedy of Early Termination
"Jealousy is as fierce as fire."
"Finfbul, this kind of thing can't be a new play made by the playwright in your theater, right?"
ββ¦β¦β
"My theater is running well."
"No matter how much you need a script, you won't attack your own actors."
Fimbull, returning to the theater, was chatting with Somla.
Thinking of Lili's crazy appearance just now.
The owner of the theater inevitably shook his head and regretted:
"Dream Elixir, many people think it's a life-saving medicine for them to break through the bottleneck - how stupid."
Somla smiled.
As a high-ranking judge in the blue robe, he once worked on the front line, and he didn't know how many times he had seen this situation:
"Heh - a lot of people just go with the flow, satisfied with a superficial understanding."
"The painter is to painting, the writer is to writing, the sculptor is to sculpture, and even the fisherman is to fishing."
"The ability is not studied deeply enough, and when I see the illusions that others are indulging in dreams, I feel that this is a shortcut to pursue achievement."
Somla concludes with disdain:
"If you can't maintain a clear self in this torrent, you're just a mundane thing after all."
FinfΓΌble looked back at the distant star:
"Kid, do you hear me? That's a golden saying. β
"Even if something is modern and popular, it can't be led by the nose."
ββ¦β¦β
"I see."
Haruka nodded in response, but his gaze was still a little diffuse.
She remembered the Selena she had seen today, and the resentment when Lili cursed herself.
Fimbull continues:
"I know you're pretty attached to Selena. But the heart of the pursuit of craftsmanship is the most important, and we must not go astray. β
"My heart ......" Yaoxing put his right hand on his chest, feeling his heartbeat.
There are no outsiders nearby.
She changed her name to Fimbull:
"Teacher, but I'm still unwilling."
Finnbull stepped forward and rubbed Haruka's beautiful hair with his hand:
"What a stupid boy."
"If you can't see through this maze, go get closer to her."
"The more familiar you are, the more you can see it."
ββ¦β¦β
On the other side, Lindsay and the others are still in the theater.
The other interpreters who were drunk and dreamed of death, how dare they touch the moldy head of the blue robe, and those who have a little reaction know to get out of the way.
That's where they questioned Miss Kuwait.
"Remember how you left the Library?"
"Album...... Impression Passage ......"
"Who gave you the dream potion?"
"I ...... I don't remember. Coming out of the impression tunnel, I followed them out of the theater and lost consciousness. β
"So you have no idea what's going on?"
"That's right, sir."
ββ¦β¦β
In the middle of the night.
Lindsey and Walawala leave with Miss Kuwait.
The latter had just detached himself from the effects of the Dream Elixir, and was somewhat outside of the gods. However, her better background made her maintain a fairly polite state.
So when she walked out of the theater, she saluted Lindsay and the two:
"Thank you, both of you."
"I'm Lina Kuwait, and I haven't asked for your honorific title yet?"
"Lindsay." "Walawala."
A subtle name, conventionally a little confusing.
However, Lina was concerned, so she didn't think much about this question, but asked directly:
"You said before that Anthony is also in the City of a Thousand Sails?"
Lindsay replied:
"That's right."
"We came to the City of a Thousand Sails by boat two days ago, and your lover happened to be on that ship."
Wala Wala Ying added:
"And thanks to the token of love that you gave him."
"Otherwise, we boatloads of people will be left on Mermaid Island by fallen artists!"
Mention the token of commitment.
Lina's cheeks flushed and she bowed her head slightly:
"We do ......"
"Wait! You've met fallen artists? Anthony: He's not hurt! β
Lindsay waved comfortingly:
"Of course it's fine."
"Even because of the help of the Red Sea Monster, we saved the whole ship of people, and Anthony will be praised for it."
Lina suddenly breathed a sigh of relief:
"It's okay, it's okay."
The girl continued to ask:
"Where does Anthony live now?"
Lindsey replied:
"27 Meiwen Avenue in the Purple District, a manor inside a painting space."
"That's where we're going now."
Wala Vara immediately probed and said:
"By the way, Lindsay and I live there, too."
Next, as if to witness the realization of a love, Walawala's emotions seemed quite excited.
She occasionally ran and jumped like a cheerful fawn in the streets, sometimes giggling a few times.
Or pause and help the singer singing on the side of the road to harmonize and overwhelm the other person.
The night is getting deeper.
The trio returned to the manor in the painting.
Lindsey and Valawala take Lina directly to the door of Anthony's room.
Bang Bang
"Anthony?"
Lina knocked on the door, but there was no sound in the room.
"Anthony? It's me? β
"Aren't you home?"
There was still no response from inside the room, so Lina looked at the two beside her.
ββ¦β¦β
Lindsey frowned and pulled open the map, which contained a green marker symbolizing friendly units.
Anthony was inside.
Even if the other party sleeps and sleeps dead, it is impossible for him to be unresponsive like this.
"Get out of the way!"
Lindsay realized that things had changed.
He stepped forward, raised his right foot, and kicked the door.
With a 'boom', the hinges of the door of this guest room were immediately smashed open by Lindsay's strange force, and the door panel fell towards the house.
The three of them rushed into the house.
As soon as I glanced at it, I saw Anthony's figure.
The young man who had only cheered up at the time of the separation last night was now lying on the ground, unconscious, and there was a strange essentia around him.
"Anthony!?"
Lina shouted.
But Lindsay rushed first, and Valawala tacitly hugged the girl and prevented her from approaching her unidentified lover.
Lindsey opens the puzzle game
[Human-Left hand implanted with an erosion insect larvae, undergoing bestiality transformation. γ
"Left hand?"
Lindsey ripped Anthony's sleeve open.
On the other party's arm, a red-black swollen sarcoma is growing upwards along the skin of the blood vessels, almost to the shoulder position!
"Valawala, what's the Erosion Bug?"
Wala Vara immediately replied:
"A strange insect that can invade and transform the human body and then occupy consciousness!"
Lindsey asked:
"How can I rescue someone who is parasitized?"
Without thinking, Walawala replied:
"There is no cure for complete parasitism unless the temporal cause and effect are reversed; If it's not done, cut off the parasitic part! β
Lindsay no longer hesitated.
He raised the knife in his hand, and Anthony's left arm was immediately cut off by him.
Ziziziββ
The sarcoma that fell to the ground twisted and wriggled, and it seemed as if something inside was about to burst out of the skin.
Boom!
Lindsay pulled out her mace and slammed it.
As the arm was smashed, the ensuing flames burned it to a cloud of ashes.
Double-check again.
The erosion worms in the pus and blood of the severed limbs died cleanly.
The identification information on Anthony's body has also changed from a parasitic state to a mutilated arm.
At least this so-called parasitic crisis is gone.
Lindsey gave Anthony the medicine, and then he breathed a sigh of relief:
"It's okay, the person is saved."
"Anthony!"
At this point, Walawala let go.
Lina rushed up without thinking about it, took her lover's body in her arms, and began to cry uncontrollably.
ββ¦β¦β
Walawala walked up to Lindsay's side and said in a serious tone:
"The Erosion Worm is a creature from a psychedelic dream that once caused a stir in the City of a Thousand Sails."
Lindsay asked curiously:
"So this thing has been around to this day?"
"Those powerful artists in the City of Thousand Sails, no one came to take care of them?"
"The city has already cleaned them up." Valawala shook her head in denial, and then said her thoughts, "This thing can still appear in the Seven Seas Alliance, but someone deliberately brought it out." β
ββ¦β¦β
Lindsay fell silent.
He turned to look at Lina and Anthony.
After the severed arm, Anthony quickly regained consciousness and recognized Lina. The two hugged each other and cried.
The appearance of the lovers is mixed with joy and sorrow, but they finally see each other.
After the tribulation, there is joy in the end.
But Lindsay had a different picture in mind.
If he and Valawala hadn't intervened, or had lost his temper a little, he would have fought against the blue robe with an indifferent attitude.
Then Anthony will continue to be eroded and parasitized in the manor, turning into a monster.
Lina will also be robbed of her emotions and finally indulged in the dream potion and rot in the unknown corner of the City of a Thousand Sails.
At that time, not to mention whether a lover could eventually become a family.
It is impossible for the two sides to even meet, as if it is a real tragedy that has sunk to the end.
ββ¦β¦β
Lindsay's gaze naturally fell on the taskbar.
There is only one task, and there is not the slightest sign of completion; This text is still written coldly.
[The protagonist's life trajectory has been rewritten, find out the writer behind the scenes, and tear up her script! ] γ
