Chapter 169 168

What to do with the 'inner ghost' Geras and his 'perfect girlfriend' after that is not for Lloyd to worry about, since the matter has been taken over by the Holy Grace Court, then leave it to the professionals with peace of mind.

It just so happened that Lloyd was a little tired from tossing and turning today, so he went to the public bathroom and took a casual shower, planning to rest early.

But when he was lying on the bed, he couldn't help but take out the amethyst pendant, hold it in the palm of his hand, and play with it repeatedly, hoping that Wei Ya's voice could come from inside.

After seeing what happened to Geras, he inexplicably wanted to talk to Wei Ya......

But the crystal didn't respond in the slightest, and the distance between the two was too far to be useful.

It seems that we will have to find a way to get some more advanced communication equipment in the future......

Lloyd pondered in his heart and fell into a deep sleep.

And in a luxury apartment in the bright city, there is another beautiful woman who is thinking about him.

The woman had just finished taking a shower, her hair was wet, and she was wearing a translucent tulle pajamas, and the bewitching curves were looming inside.

She was sitting at the dresser, the room was not lit, only a few candles were lit in certain places, and the flickering candlelight emitted light from different angles, hitting her shadow on the wall in an eerie shape.

The woman's beautiful face was reflected in the mirror in front of her, and next to it was a golden rattle and a delicate silver dinner knife, and she picked up the dinner knife and gently scratched it on her index finger, oozing a few drops of blood.

Rub the blood droplets on the surface of the rattle and gently shake it twice.

As the bell rang three times, the mirror in front of her suddenly turned pitch black, and then a string of white words emerged from it:

"Did you find that person?"

The words looked extremely scribbled, as if a man was enduring some kind of intense pain, struggling, trembling and writing, still flickering and flickering, and every now and then a little stroke was missing, like an old-fashioned projector.

The woman lowered her voice and answered the question posed by the 'mirror':

"I have made inquiries from various sources and tentatively identified eight candidates, all of whom meet your criteria of 'young', 'vetoed', 'talented', 'both parents are dead', 'keen to kill', and 'loved by others', and the person you are looking for should be among them......

But I'll need time to verify them all, and my lover is trying to get close to one of them, but I haven't heard from him today, but I think things should go well on his side, and he has a lot of prestige among the young people of the Order. ”

"Hmmm......"

'Mirror' responded, but the word immediately changed again:

"I saw your endgame, you, and your toys in the Book of Destiny."

"What?"

The woman's eyes widened in disbelief, as if she had seen bad news.

Then he quickly stood up from the edge of the dresser, trembling as he slowly retreated.

And the 'mirror' continues to 'say':

"There is no need to run away, but to offer your last faith to our God."

Even if it's just a line of text, it exudes a chilling coldness.

"No!"

The woman casually picked up a vase in her hand and wanted to smash it into the mirror.

But I riveted all my strength, but found that the vase was still in my hand.

She looked down and found that her hand, which had merged with the vase, took on a smooth ceramic color.

She froze in place, completely forgetting to continue resisting, allowing the ceramic-like color and texture to spread along her arms and throughout her body.

In the end, her whole body turned into a beautiful humanoid vase, standing in place.

This vase perfectly restores all the details of her body, every strand of hair, every strand of clothing on the folds are preserved, and the expression of horror and unwillingness on her face is even more vivid, frozen in the moment when she tried to resist.

The mirror on the opposite side suddenly shattered, scattering glass shards all over the ground, and the flickering candles in the room were also extinguished, making the place instantly swallowed up by pitch black.

After about five minutes, the lights in the room came back on, and the door was kicked open from the outside, and several Grace hunters rushed in, seeing the lifelike humanoid vase.

The beautiful and realistic image startled several hunters, and they felt a burst of sweat stand on end.

It took several seconds for one of them to speak:

"We're late, she's been killed......"

"I can't understand that after we received the secret message from there, we started to act as soon as possible, but we were still a step slower? Could it be that someone leaked the news ahead of time? ”

"What kind of evil power is this? Why can you turn people into vases? ”

"Wait? Vases, you say? The same way I look? And not sculpture or something? ”

One of the hunters said, drawing closer to the vase, and with a bold gesture, gently touched its arm.

In the next second, cracked lines appeared on the surface of the vase, and began to spread rapidly.

At the same time, a strange power also emerged from inside the vase, ready to explode in all directions at any time.

"Not good! Evacuate! ”

A hunter shouted.

But after all, they were still a step slow, and before they could leave the room, the vase shattered and turned into tiny pieces of debris, and the strange power in it also erupted in an instant, sweeping through the entire luxury apartment.

Several hunters froze in place, motionless.

Their eyes gradually closed, as if they had forgotten their vision.

Their minds gradually stagnate, as if they have forgotten to think.

Their breathing gradually stopped, as if they had forgotten to breathe.

Eventually, their heartbeats quieted down, as if they had forgotten their heartbeats.

Then one by one they fell, and they were sacrificed silently......

……………………

Lloyd snapped his eyes open and sat up from his bed, as if awakened from a nightmare.

He tilted his head, rubbed his eyebrows, and thought back to the dream just now, it should be considered a sweet dream, right?

In the dream, he saw his sister wearing a gorgeous white wedding dress, with a happy and sweet smile on her face, looking extremely beautiful and holy.

She was holding her arm affectionately, her lovely face full of anticipation, walking on a red carpet with her.

Soft music was playing all around, and white petals were scattered all over the sky, adding a bit of romance to this scene.

But Lloyd's heart was empty, not happy at all, and his face was full of loss.

Until Evrol gently tugged at his arm and asked softly:

"What's wrong, Xiaoyi?"

"I didn't ...... It's nothing...... It's just that I can't bear my sister, you must be happy in the future! ”

Lloyd choked up.

Then he woke up suddenly......

So, this should be a sweet dream, right? Dreaming of my sister getting married, no matter how you think about it, it should be a sweet dream, right?

As a younger brother, it's normal for me to feel sad that I'm reluctant to part with my sister, right?

It's a pity that I didn't see what my 'brother-in-law' looked like? And how much strength do you have? What system? Can you protect your sister?

Thinking of this, Lloyd smiled, shook his head, and lay back while he was still sleepy.

I hope that this time, I can have a dream in the true sense of the word.

As a result, I didn't dream of anything, I slept very well, and when I woke up, it was already six o'clock in the morning.

Lloyd simply got up, according to the content of the "Fitness Manual", mobilized his spiritual power, did a few sets of simple morning exercises, and then prepared to go out to get breakfast.

As soon as I went out, I saw two knight chiefs standing at the door next door.

The two of them didn't speak, just you looked at me, I looked at you, without saying a word, as if they were making eye contact.

It wasn't until a dozen seconds later that the knight with the bubble box above his head nodded, and a mess of black lines appeared in the bubble frame, as if to express doubt, and then turned away, passing Lloyd.

The remaining talker, the chief knight, turned back and said to Lloyd:

"Something happened last night, and Geras's vase died in the high-end apartment they rented, and the Holy Grace Court also got a team of hunters."

"Huh? Did someone leak the news? ”

Lloyd asked in surprise.

He remembered Geras's vase......

Hey? Wait a minute!

Why vases?

Lloyd realized that something was wrong and quickly shook his head vigorously.

But the knight chief on the opposite side opened his mouth and comforted:

"Don't be nervous, you're okay like this, this is the power of the taboo system [forgetting], it will be fine in two days."

"Forget?"

Lloyd hurriedly recalled the butler's PVP notes, which did not mention such a system that could turn people into vases.

Then he hurried back to his room, and found the transcript from yesterday, and looked through it.

Good fellow, the above record of a certain person has all been turned into the word 'vase'.

"There is such a strange power in this world? Can it affect everyone's memory and cognition? ”

Lloyd shuddered.

"It's not that exaggerated, there will be a discrepancy between memory and record, and it is only because we only know this person through the transcript, and we are not familiar with it enough, that it will become a 'vase', and we will not be able to remember who it really is until two days later."

The Knight Commander also walked in, briefly introducing the terrible [Forgetting] system:

"This is a very rare taboo system, and the people who wield its power should only be slightly more than the legendary [Twist], right? It is characterized by a large impact on other people's memories and cognitions in a short period of time, as you see, forgetting something and replacing it with a false concept......

It's like you forget an unfamiliar classmate from the past and mistake him for someone else......

But fortunately, not everything can be affected, there should be many restrictions, otherwise the people involved in this system may have ruled the world long ago. ”
