Chapter 253 Lair

"Six days?"

Felix's eyes widened, and his voice rose a lot: "Are you serious?"

Xiuge shook his head: "You don't think that I came here to make fun of you, right? And I still make fun of this kind of issue."

"No, of course not."

Felix's expression became a little grim: "Six days is too short, and it is not enough for us to gather all the survivors in the west side of Salem City. Do we have to abandon them all?"

Facing the question raised by Felix, Shuge acted extremely indifferently. He and Felix looked at each other, and then added: "This is already a lenient calculation on my part. If I follow the most restrictive idea, I It will be hoped that within three days everyone will be ready to evacuate."

"Too nervous."

"I know, but there's no way around it... We're chasing time, not it waiting for us."

Shuge's words were extremely cold. Felix knew very well that he might not be able to gain any leeway in the face of Shuge's attitude, so he asked: "This time... is based on the order of the emergency committee." Calculated?"

"no."

Shuge shook his head: "The emergency committee will not tell us the exact time. What they want to solve is the problem of the entire city of Salem, not just the problem of the survivors in the city. There is a huge difference between the two. , so we must advance our previous plan, six days, only six days... Before that, everyone within our control must do a strict review, and move to the south side of the city gate, and be ready at any time Escape through the unblocked gates of Salem City.”

Felix looked embarrassed, but he finally nodded through gritted teeth.

After experiencing so many things, he is no longer the mild-mannered leader of the Mutual Aid Association in the past. The various events that occurred in Salem City and the work Felix carried out during this period made him understand something. Important truth - in the face of fierce life and death conflicts, he must give up his original gentle attitude and turn to some seemingly more ruthless and cold-blooded methods.

Except for General Boots, only a few people knew that Felix had just recently personally led people to deal with several Black Sun Society believers who tried to sneak into Iris Street.

The review process is rapid and the handling method is naturally decisive.

Felix knew very well that he could not leave unnecessary rations for the monsters in Salem City, so he did not even leave complete corpses for the believers who were bewitched by the Black Sun Society.

"I will try my best to arrange these things. Fortunately, now I have Rudolf and the others to help me, so I am no longer running around alone."

Seeing that Felix accepted his words, Xiuge breathed a sigh of relief. He raised his hand and patted the other party on the shoulder: "Be safe and don't fall in the darkness before dawn."

"darkness before dawn……"

Felix chewed this sentence slowly, and then he looked at Shuge keenly: "But, is dawn really coming?"

Shuge raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect Felix to ask this question suddenly.

Seeing Shuge looking at him, Felix explained: "What I mean is... you mentioned before that this 'six days' is a time you calculated by yourself, but since the emergency committee did not give us any relevant tips, , then I think that what makes you plan such a hasty timetable must be some kind of approaching threat...and it must be a threat that is enough to make even a powerful mage like you feel fearful and uneasy."

Felix gritted his teeth: "I guessed... right?"

Shuge looked at Felix, who had a serious face. He sighed helplessly, and then leaned back on the chair.

At the same time, a Delan commemorative coin placed on the table for pressing the form jumped into his fingers with the operation of magic power. Then, the commemorative coin flipped flexibly with the shaking of Shuge's fingers. , jumped up.

"Your guess is correct, but there are some things that I'm afraid you can't understand yet."

The commemorative coin dancing between Xiuge's fingers stopped. Xiuge raised his head slightly and glanced toward the top: "For most people in this world, that will be a disaster. And we may not have a way around it at all.”

Felix's expression became weird, because Shuge's current behavior reminded him of those Black Sun Society believers who seemed to have abnormal minds, but the words he said and the powerless tone revealed in the words , but he had to believe it.

So he carefully asked: "Compared with the disaster you mentioned, compared with the current situation of this city..."

"It's not a concept at all."

Shuge smiled at Felix: "Felix, compared with the coming disaster, what happened in Salem City is just an insignificant prelude.

Hearing these words, Felix stood up with a bang. He walked around the desk twice, then grabbed the form he had shown to Shuge before, and turned around and walked out.

Shuge was surprised by Felix's reaction, so he quickly shouted: "What are you going to do?"

"Of course we must solve these problems quickly!"

Felix shook the form in his hand hard and turned to look at Shuge: "I don't think you will deceive us, so I will try my best to do these things according to the time you gave me. "

"I thought you were going to ask for details about the disaster."

"That's your job, my friend! I believe in you, just as you believe in me!"

After saying that, Felix raised his feet and walked towards the outside of the house. At this moment, the psychedelic magic light once again flashed in Shuge's eyes, so Felix, who was walking towards the outside of the house, immediately looked at his fate. The future illusion revealed by the roots has changed into something else.

Xiuge saw that Felix in the fantasy world had changed from a young man to a middle-aged man in his fifties. At that time, he had become very vicissitudes of life, and his somewhat thin figure was wrapped in a rather large windbreaker. , he looks like a hard stone that has been eroded and beaten by wind and frost, and his bearded face is dotted with two tired, but extremely calm and wise eyes.

In his hand, he held a cane.

The illusion of destiny completely disappeared as Felix walked out of the office. Xiuge looked at the office door that was closed by Felix. He paused in his position for several seconds before slowly coming back to his senses.

Xiuge once again felt the confusion and uncertainty of the ability of Destiny Illusion.

Because he was certain that the crutch Felix was holding in the illusion was the Black Sun Scepter he was carrying with him now.

The whole Iris Street became busy.

All the survivors who moved here began mobilizing under the orders of General Boots, Felix and others. Although the southern area of ​​Salem City is still not very safe now, for the sake of possible future To begin the evacuation operation, they must move the survivors to the area near the southern city gate in an orderly manner.

The scope of this action is very wide.

The transfer of materials, the guarantee of regional security, the selection of personnel, and the confidentiality of the overall operation... these are all huge tests for the survivors.

The transfer of personnel must be kept sufficiently secretive, and the purpose of doing so is not only to avoid the bandit gangs that may pose a threat, but also to avoid the groups of descendants of the Dark Abyss spread throughout Salem City.

As the magic power of the general environment begins to change, the activity patterns of the descendants of Dark Abyss are also undergoing drastic changes. Their aggressiveness is constantly increasing, and their activity time is also continuing to increase. Correspondingly, The time that the survivor group can carry out safe operations has also been further compressed.

"The transfer of personnel must be carried out in an orderly and quiet manner. Once the monsters realize that we are moving towards the south of the city, then we are likely to attract a large-scale encirclement and suppression by them, and once they choose to act in groups, the sunlight will The deterrence of these monsters will be infinitely reduced, and by that time, we will have nowhere to escape!"

"The expansion and consolidation of the settlement near the southern city gate cannot be too hasty. We must use protective rituals to a limited extent...Monsters are very sensitive to changes in magic power. If they already have enough wisdom, then they can completely sense it through Abnormalities were discovered due to changes in magic power!”

"In any case, if a single monster is noticed by an individual, they must be dealt with immediately. They must not be given any chance to communicate with their own kind and group. They are like ants, they will come back after they run away. group……"

Under Shuge's instruction, a large number of important contents related to this evacuation operation began to be communicated internally to the managers of Iris Street.

In order to make the officers and mages be more vigilant, Xiuge openly stated to everyone the serious consequences that might result from a wrong action.

After completing this series of arrangements, the de facto "manager" of Salem City left the Delan Embassy alone. He refused the protection of the soldiers on Iris Street, left the safe neighborhood directly, and went to nowhere. In the human corner was summoned the running rat Snitch, who had been suffocating in the metal disk for several days.

"Next, I'll have to work hard on you."

Xiuge raised his hand and gently patted the horns of the big mouse's head twice, and then vigorously rubbed the fine fur on its head.

Snitch enjoyed this kind of caressing very much. He barked softly and responded to Shuge's words.

In the following actions, Xiuge himself is also shouldering an extremely important task. In order to allow the transfer task between Iris Street and the Legal Committee to proceed smoothly, he must ensure that the descendants of the Dark Abyss in Salem City as a whole move towards the city. The north and east sides of London City were transferred.

There are many ways to "mobilize" these greedy monsters, but if you want to attract almost all the individual descendants of Dark Abyss to a certain area in one go, only Xiuge himself can do it.

Shuge rode the Running Rat around twice on the streets away from Iris Street, and soon he selected a suitable place.

It was a severely collapsed theater. At the intersection next to the theater, there were death warning signs left by Iris Street soldiers and other survivors. This showed that there were a large number of descendants of the Dark Abyss hidden in this collapsed theater. , they have probably regarded this theater as their nest!

This kind of collapsed building hiding countless descendants of the Dark Abyss is fatal to any survivor, but for Shuge, this is the best place for him to implement his plan.

Under the cover of the dark abyss magic, Xiuge walked in through the empty door of the theater with his cane. He passed through the dark corridor, bypassed the collapsed wall, and finally passed through a huge gap. Entered the theater lobby.

There was a horrible, suffocating smell in the air.

In this lightless hall, the creeping sound of Ruoyouruowu was slowly coming from every dark corner. Xiuge stopped, and the mist of the messenger in the mirror flowed in his eyes. Then, all the hidden sounds were heard. Twisted silhouettes in the shadows begin to appear.

The theater that was once used to stage musicals has now been completely reduced to a terrifying lair for the descendants of the Dark Abyss. The seats, banners, sculptures and decorations... everything carries the traces left behind by the descendants of the Dark Abyss after they crawled. Traces, Xiuge saw a large number of skeletal remains piled up in a corner of the theater hall. These were all "garbage" produced by the descendants of An Abyss after eating, and they were also the final evidence left by the victims in the city.

A large number of soft shadows gathered at the other end away from these garbage. It was noon, and the descendants of the Dark Abyss did not go out to hunt. They gathered together, and dim magical light and shadow flashed through their bodies from time to time, which meant that They are constantly digesting and understanding those complicated memories and knowledge.

Xiuge breathed a sigh of relief, and then sank into his spiritual world, calling out the leader of the tribe whose fate was rooted.

The next moment, clusters of roots of destiny appeared following the call of Shuge. These translucent creations without exact colors slowly "grew" from the ground of the theater hall like plants, and soon occupied the place. the central part of the hall.

Xiuge knew very well that since he had a head-on conflict with the main body of the descendants of An Yuan, that group of beings that already possessed considerable intelligence would no longer easily launch a large-scale pursuit of him. Therefore, now, he needs to let this group The abandoned theater returns to its original role.

Here, he plans to use the Destiny Roots' ability to create large-scale illusions to perform a grand performance that is enough to deceive these monsters.

The disturbed magic inevitably alarmed the dormant descendants of the Dark Abyss, who woke up one after another and passed the warning message to their own kind.

It was at this time that Xiuge gave his orders to the roots of fate.

"Start setting the scene!"
