Lord of the Mysteries 2: Circle of Inevitability

One of the people who came to the ancient palace was "Black Earth" and the other was "Bacchus". The former was dressed as a mountain hunter, wearing a furry hat and a thick leather mask. The latter only wore a pair of shorts and had marks on his face. A brass-colored mask.

After they saw "Hela", they nodded slightly as a greeting.

Immediately afterwards, their eyes swept over Franka, who did not have a code name, and the "Muggle" shrouded in a dreamlike fog.

Who is this? "Kuroto" dressed as a mountain hunter pointed at Franka and asked doubtfully.

"Hidden Blade', I came in a hurry and forgot to label it." Franka answered on her own.

"Black Earth" and "Bacchus" immediately gave up their suspicions and were no longer vigilant and defensive.

In such an urgent gathering, it is normal for "Hidden Blade" to make similar mistakes.

This is her style!

After a while, other members of the "April Fool's Day" team arrived one after another, but Lumian did not see "I have a friend", "Hisoka", "Bard", "Crazy Girl" and "Salty Egg Superman". "These are the five most suspected targets.

His expression gradually darkened, feeling that "Loki" had been resurrected and the members in question had been warned.

The dozen or so people here are being exploited. If "Loki" and his friends go too far and are noticed by other members of the "Curly-haired Baboon Research Society", these will be the shields that can be thrown out for investigation. www.youxs.org

There is nothing wrong with them, so they will naturally not be found to be abnormal, and they can effectively cover up the six who truly believe in "Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun".

At this time, "Black Earth" and the others gradually realized something was wrong.

Why were so few people attending the emergency gathering?

This is beyond the agreed time. Normally, at least half of the people must arrive.

"Hela, what's going on?" "Bacchus", who was wearing only a mask and shorts, asked in a deep voice.

Lumian sneered, as if he was looking at a group of fools.

If "Loki" and the others are bad, these are stupid, thinking they are smart, thinking they have mastered the truth, thinking they are enjoying all the indulgences before the end of the world, but in fact they are just being used as weapons and shields.

Lumian bets that "Loki", "I Have a Friend" and other core members of the "April Fool's Day" group will inevitably laugh at these idiots when they gather in private.

"Hela" said with a cold voice:

"You are called to this gathering because 'Loki' betrayed us.

"Kurotsu", "Bacchus" and others were stunned at the same time, and immediately looked around, but did not find "Loki".

"Hela" continued:

"He believed in an evil god and led 'I have a friend' and others to murder many members of the research association."

"Such an accusation requires evidence." "Bacchus" retorted subconsciously.

Lumian, who had put on the "Lie" ear clip, said in Aurore's voice:

"I am the proof!

"You should all have seen that I bought the 'Spiritual Summoning Technique', which caused me to have mental problems and almost lose control. Fortunately, I found someone to help in time and sealed the split personality.

“Before this, I had been seeking treatment from ‘I have a friend’, but instead of getting better, the situation got worse.

"I found them and wanted to argue with them, but who knew, they were planning to murder me!

"Black Earth" was silent for a moment and said:

"I remember that you bought it from a crazy girl. The reason they deceived you is that time travel should be a matter of both parties, not one-sided. Otherwise, why would you travel to this world and why would you happen to be attached to the world? For such people, the original owners of the body must have done something to establish the connection between the two worlds. Therefore, before knowing what they did to cause the time travel, they should find the remnant soul of the original owner of the body and ask, Maybe there will be unexpected gains.

"Muggle, were you too homesick at that time? Would you believe this reason?"

Hearing this, the eyes of the "April Fool's Day" group members present were more or less filled with teasing and ridicule.

"Muggles" would actually fall for such a trick that can only deceive children!

None of them were deceived by the "crazy girl". Even if she said that she had tried it and had certain results, it could not be called a clue.

"Crazy Girl"... Lumian repeated this codename in his mind.

He then smiled and said:

“I was indeed blinded by the desire to return to my hometown, but you are no better.

"Look, are 'Loki', 'Crazy Girl', and 'Bard' here?

"They know very well what they are doing, and they also understand that once exposed, they must leave the research association immediately, but you, stupid, idiots, know nothing, understand nothing, and you are still cooperating with them!

"Pigs and dogs are smarter than you!"

The fact that "Loki" and others did not show up, like the arrows of ridicule from "Muggles", pierced the psychological holes of "Black Earth" and other "April Fools" members.

Some of them were so angry that they wanted to retaliate, some of them were shaking, desperate and confused, and some of them seemed to be being bitten by countless bugs, and the pain seemed to be real.

Upon seeing this, Franka entered the "instigation" mode and accurately hit the target:

"Don't you understand yet? You are abandoned children, objects of abandonment, and agents that have lost their role!

"You have never become a core member of 'April Fool's Day', and have never gained the trust of 'Loki', they will only laugh at you behind your back!

"Now that Loki and the others have been exposed and can hunt members of the Research Society without scruples, who do you think will be the easiest for them to find and target?

"The only thing you can do is recall the details of your dealings with 'Loki' and the others, including the pranks organized in reality, so that we can eliminate these traitors as soon as possible.

“Remember, you will be treated with leniency if you confess, but you will be treated with severity if you resist.”

"Kurotsuchi", "Bacchus" and others thought about the idea of ​​"Hidden Blade" and found that it was really possible.

They looked at each other, and their hearts were obviously shaken. Several members who had seen "Loki" and his friends even trembled slightly unconsciously.

Franka finally dropped a bombshell:

"Don't think that you can escape hunting by changing places or moving once. Let me tell you, the experience of 'Muggles' is that 'Loki' and the others seem to be able to target members of the research society within a certain range through occult connections. .

“I will tell everyone the specific method at the next official gathering.

"Black Earth" gritted his teeth and said:

"There are so many details that I don't think I could finish them in a few hours."

The other April Fools group members nodded.

"Hela" thought for a moment and said:

“You guys can go back later, write down all the details, and send them to me.

"Remember, take your luggage with you as soon as you return and stay in a hotel or hotel at least five kilometers away."

"Bacchus" and the others breathed a sigh of relief and agreed one after another.

Immediately afterwards, Lumian saw them closing their eyes at the same time, as if they had fallen asleep standing up.

Both he and Franka turned their heads thoughtfully and noticed that Ms. "Hela"'s eyes first lost focus and then closed.

After a while, "Hela" opened her eyes and said to Lumian and Franka:

"There are no hidden 'Loki' helpers or Celestial followers."

This was because he was worried that "Loki" would take the risk of leaving an accomplice to spy on the news... Franka suddenly realized.

The next second, "Black Earth", "Bacchus" and others woke up at the same time, recited the incantation without noticing, and left the ancient and decaying palace.

Lumian deactivated "Nisse's Face", took off the "Lie" ear clip, and asked about "Hela":

"Every time a gathering uses a spell, it should be tainted with the secret aura of that sealed object, right?

"Can we use this to find the 'Crazy Girl' and the others?

"Hela" shook his head:

"They no longer have the corresponding aura."

Apparently, she'd tried it before.

Lumian said nothing more and exhaled slowly and silently.

The three of them left the "Land of Night" one after another and returned to the uninhabited mine underground in Trier.

"Hela" put away the extraordinary characteristics of the "Resentful Soul" and said to Lumian and Franka:

"If you can't find 'Loki' and really kill him, you can stay in the Trier market area for another three months at most. By then, no matter what unfinished business you have, you will have to consider moving."

"Why three months?" Franca asked in confusion.

She felt it would be dangerous to stay for another week.

"Hela" explained simply:

"Although Loki was resurrected with extraordinary characteristics, he lost all his marionettes. A 'marine master' without marionettes would not rashly appear and attack others unless he is too confident and thinks you are enough." Weak, but you have shown quite good strength.

"For 'Secret Puppet Masters' who don't have a secret puppet, if you want to get a suitable and powerful secret puppet, you need planning, luck, and replacement again and again. You should have a window period of three months to half a year. .”

"I understand." Franka decided to report to Ms. "Judgment", saying that if there was no progress within two months, she hoped to give up the "Iron Cross" mission and find another place.

Lumian also nodded.

What he was thinking about was whether it would be possible to digest the "Arsonist" potion within three months and collect the "Conspirator" potion formula and main ingredients.

At this time, "Hela" pointed to the mud, flesh and twisted worms that "Loki's" body had collapsed into and said:

"Those dead bugs are very good spiritual materials and have many uses. However, they also have hidden problems. They have been contaminated to a certain extent and will bring you unknown dangers."

Franka thought about the terrible experience of almost becoming a Secret Puppet, and shook her head, saying that she didn't want it.

Lumi quietly looked at the countless maggots and mud-like flesh and blood for a while, then suddenly let the red fireball floating on his shoulders fly out and hit "Loki"'s body.

The fireball did not explode, but burned violently, bursting with red light.

Looking at the burned maggots and flesh, and looking at the rising blazing flames, Lumian felt that his "Pyromancer" potion had been digested.

This comes from the experience of being controlled by "Loki" and relying on the state of being on the verge of losing control to ignite himself and let the breath of "Blood Emperor" resonate and inspire.

This led Lumian to sum up his own rules for playing "arsonist":

"Arsonists" are not arsonists. Only by daring to ignite themselves can they ignite others!
