Mystery: Paradox Path

When the people in the audience saw this scene, no one could react for a while.

No one thought that this assassin would die so easily.

After a short silence, the scene became chaotic, and the soldiers of the King's Guard rushed to the high platform amid the screams one after another.

Cabinet members and the nobles of the upper house either subconsciously found a place to hide, or gathered up the courage to follow the guards to check the scene.

Audrey looked at it with a slightly startled expression, only to feel that everything happened so suddenly and so unreal.

She had long guessed that something big might happen in the king's speech, but she didn't expect that Mr. Devil would actually do such a radical act. She didn't believe that Mr. Devil would simply die like this, but it had completely collapsed. The spiritual island of her, but it repeatedly impacted her confidence.

Soon, a figure that was very familiar to many people present appeared on the high platform where the king had fallen. He was wearing a palace gown and had an aura of iron and blood on his body. He stretched out his hand to hold Hold the microphone, open the mouth and say:

"Everyone, I am the third prince of the Ruen Kingdom, Edsac Augustus, and now, I have to announce a sad news to you, just today, December 3, 1350 at 9:27 in the morning , our king, George Augustus III, was assassinated in a speech in Memorial Day Square and died. The assassin was killed on the spot. Next, the cabinet will temporarily take over the war. We will take out food reserves. In order to stabilize food prices, set up rescue agencies in various places, provide basic living allowances, and punish profiteers who make war fortunes and drive up food prices, although we have lost a king, please believe in the people..."

Prince Edsack, who should have committed suicide for unseemly reasons such as "bringing up a witch" and "causing a smog", stood on a high platform and released the king's obituary and new policies to the whole country, which made Taiwan The members of the cabinet, nobles, and members of the lower council had a very absurd feeling.

But as old fritters in the officialdom, they did not act rashly. At this time, no matter how bad the political sense of smell is, they can still ask the unusual smell of gunpowder smoke.

Audrey, who was standing beside her mother, was focusing on another issue at this time—

The emotions that had been reversed because of that Mr. Clown seemed to be fading fast.

"Have the resentment, dissatisfaction and anger been concentrated on the king, and then killed the sorrow and resentment of the people by killing the king?"

...

As Audrey said,

Under the "live broadcast accident" led by Snow, under the influence of the bgm player built by the Singer's potion, and under the empathy brought by the power of Zhuang Zhou's fish, all the citizens who heard the broadcast were under the influence of him. In his guidance, Qiao San was regarded as the root of all evil. When the news of Qiao San's death was made public, sadness, anger, fear, and anxiety, all these negative emotions also disappeared.

Of course, killing the "root of all evil" is only a way to cure the symptoms but not the root cause. Those who have lost their loved ones will still be sad, and those in the war will still be worried. will not be a problem.

As for the enthusiasm and labor movement that had spread to all parts of Loen, a large amount of food and supplies had been stored long before the war. When Qiao Sanyi died, the supplies and food would be in place immediately.

And the assassin who was killed on the spot also successfully "died" in the witness of countless people.

Snow's body had completely died with the shooting, but his spiritual body, his spirit, had been combined with Beyonder characteristics as early as the moment he took the Schrodinger's Cat potion, and was transformed into another existence. form.

With the death of his body, Snow's sense of existence fell to a limit, and his consciousness began to wander blindly, constantly looking for a place to rest.

The ritual of Schrodinger's cat is completely different from all the angel rituals in this world. Other rituals are basically establishing and developing anchor points to anchor their mental state and avoid being engulfed by the erosion brought by the potion.

But Schrödinger's cat is just the opposite. Its ritual is to pull out its own anchor.

This is because the ability of Schrödinger's Cat is too free, and the side effects are extremely terrifying. To survive in this state, an absolute and unshakable will is a necessary condition.

Snow, who gave up his body, only felt that his consciousness was constantly expanding and shrinking, and the characteristics of the coffin bearer as an auxiliary material began to play a role. The power called death was like an ice coffin, wrapping his indescribable body of consciousness. The bone-chilling cold and dead silence transcended all physical senses and directly impacted his spirit.

The "ice coffin" melted little by little, and Snow's consciousness began to flow in the sea of ​​subconsciousness of the group. No, it is not accurate to say that it is flowing. To be more precise, it should be "jumping".

He has no flowing process, no trajectory, but flashes back and forth directly on an island with a completely non-adjacent island.

The cognition of countless people impacted the "ice coffin", and Snow's consciousness became more and more sober in the biting cold.

"Yes, I'm really promoted..." When the goal was remembered, when his consciousness was refocused, Snow's "secondary" cognition, which he spent months reawakening, began to play his cognition.

The ridiculous idea of ​​"I am the most special existence in the world" has become the only shield that supports his "staying over" in countless islands of consciousness after the 'ice coffin' melts.

All kinds of consciousness and cognition flowed into Snow's consciousness along the islands of consciousness, but they were blocked by his belief that "I am the only noble one, and I disdain for your mortal consciousness to be in the company". He maintained a pure The ego, constantly going back and forth in the consciousness of every person who is in contact with him, has accumulated some kind of inexplicable power.

...

Backlund, where the parliament is.

Because of the sudden and sudden death of King George III, all nobles and members of parliament were not allowed to return to their homes, and twenty times were concentrated here, under the protection of the three major churches and the military.

Audrey, who was dressed in pure black, stood behind the railing on the second floor, watching quietly below.

Because things were too sudden, she still had a feeling that was not real enough, especially illusory.

She seems to be out of reality and is watching an unusual theatrical performance:

Her father, brother, and the nobles and councilors gathered in groups of three or five in different small rooms. From time to time, they walked out of one, and hurried to other discussion circles with smoke all over their bodies and a gentleman's attire. Exchange a few words with the stiff-faced MI9 personnel;

The ladies sat in the lounge, most of them had not recovered, their eyes were dull and trembling slightly, but the recently famous "Triss" in the social circle was constantly walking back and forth between the military and the parliamentarians. , Judging from their attitude, this young lady seems to be very difficult.

Prince Edsack, who should have died long ago, was sitting in a prominent position in the hall at this time, communicating with several officers. The aura of a superior gave people the feeling that he had become a king.

All this happened in a very quiet environment, only the sound of footsteps and the faint whispers echoed, like a giant realistic oil painting, the gorgeous arrangement, the dark colors, the light of the spring morning and the faces of the people The expressions on the screen together created an extremely depressing atmosphere.

Audrey pursed her lips slightly, and couldn't help but reach out and hold the folding fan she was carrying, feeling slightly depressed.

"Even if the book reaches the mood of the people, killing the king will inevitably bring deep hatred. Now Prince Edsack seems to have unknowingly grasped the power of the royal family and the military, but the separation of the three churches It's already inevitable... Mr. Devil, why exactly..."

"Because, this is the choice of the times."

Suddenly, a voice appeared in Audrey's mind. She was shocked, and immediately switched her stand-in's field of vision, looking down at her spiritual island, only to find that a familiar figure appeared on the island.

"I didn't expect that the person who misses me the most at this time will be Miss Justice!"

"Mr. Demon?! How can you be on my mind island?"
