Looking at the young man wearing red gloves, Franka asked cautiously:
"Who are you?"
She wouldn't believe a stranger who suddenly came to her, unless she was influenced by some extraordinary power.
"'Two of Holy Grails', 'Seven of Holy Grails', you don't need to participate in what's going to happen next." The young man wearing red gloves directly shouted out the names of Franka and Janna's Little Arcana cards, and said to himself
There is a kind of majesty of leading a large number of people for a long time, which makes Franka and others feel a little afraid.
Do you know the code name of our "Tarot Club" accurately... A member of the "Tarot Club", a helper invited by the "Knight of Swords"? His dress is very similar to the "Red Glove" of the "Night Goddess" church... Franka
While thinking about it, I didn't find that my spiritual intuition gave any warning.
She was about to respond when the young man in red gloves pulled out a tarot card.
The front of the card depicts a sky full of stars and a goddess pouring holy water.
Major Arcana card, "Star"!
It turned out to be Mr. Star... Franka and Jenna no longer hesitated, nodded in unison and said:
"good."
Lugano looked a little dumbfounded:
Why take out a card?
I seem to have heard of similar things, but I can't remember them right now...
Almost at the same time, Anthony appeared out of nowhere and squeezed in beside Franka and Jenna.
Franka was stunned for a moment and said to herself:
"I really forgot about you..."
Mr. "Xingxing" didn't say anything more and opened his mouth slightly.
In an instant, Franka and others were enveloped by an invisible, huge spirit body, and then entered the spiritual world of overlapping layers of rich color blocks like traveling in a hot air balloon.
…………
At the edge of the city covered by crystal ice, Lumian, wearing the golden mask of the Eggers family, withdrew his gaze.
He could probably guess that the blurry figures in his eyes were the Temperance demigod responsible for this operation. The headless one among them seemed to be the Temperance angel he had seen before, and the demigod crawling in and out of his mouth
The transparent insects may be helpers invited by the temperance faction.
At that moment just now, how many people lived in my body... Lumian cursed and started running wildly with "Knight of the Sword" Maric.
They entered the wilderness outside Lacre City and quickly headed towards Lake Darsh under the pale and cold "sunshine".
——Due to the special influence of this "other world", Lumian cannot "teleport" to a place invisible to his naked eyes. In other words, he must complete his positioning through sight locking, and it is difficult to appear on the edge of Lake Darsh at once.
After running for a while, he reached out and grabbed the shoulder of the "Knight of Swords".
Almost at the same time, blazing white flames surged out of his body and instantly covered his entire body.
The "Sword Knight" easily understood his intention without asking, and directly transformed himself into a resentful spirit and attached himself to his body.
Lumian burned into a blazing white spear, projecting boldly into the distance.
The flame spear swished through the sky, and after a few ups and downs, it arrived at the edge of Lake Darsh.
Lumian, who escaped from the blazing white flame spear, saw that this lake was still quiet, clear, holy and beautiful even in the "other world" that merged with the kingdom of the dead.
In the dim environment, the gray-white water seemed to have lost weight, or was attracted by something high in the sky, extending upward into a huge water curtain.
In front of the water curtain, countless human skulls formed a hill-like head.
Among the skulls of different colors, there is one that is the most conspicuous. It is located at the top of all the skulls. It is crystal clear, as if carved from crystal, and is a full circle larger than the normal human skull.
There are no pale or dark red flames burning in the eye sockets of this crystal skull, reflecting an extremely ancient bronze door covered with mysterious patterns.
The door opened a gap, and behind it was endless darkness. There seemed to be dense, indescribable eyes hidden in the darkness.
They are watching the outside world, but they cannot come out.
At the edge of the gap in the bronze door, grotesque, horrifying or disgusting palms are grabbing the door, as if they want to squeeze out but are unable to do so, and can only make a sharp noise that pierces the human eardrum.
Many undead and human skulls were attracted here, gradually becoming part of the huge head.
Is that crystal skull the "immortal" skull originally used? The bronze door in its eye socket was opened by the "Gatekeeper of Death" in Sequence 5, the door to the underworld? Well, Sequence 5 cannot maintain the door to the underworld.
After a certain period of time, it can only be fixed with the help of the "immortal" skull and the special properties of Darsh Lake... The question is, where did "Witch King" Oceto go? As soon as Lumian had such an idea, he saw the composition in mid-air.
The countless human skulls on that hill-like head opened and closed their white teeth and said in unison with different voices:
"Why can't you give me a little more time?
"Since I can't get it, then I will let this place be destroyed and see how many of you can survive the disaster of the destruction of this 'other world'!
"And I, with the help of advance arrangements, gave up here and left the Laclay area!
"Hahaha, hahaha!"
Amidst the sharp, hoarse, old or deep laughter of the human skulls, Lumian felt that the huge shadow in the sky suddenly sank to the top of his head, and the ground under his feet opened up huge gaps one after another, and those gaps became wider and wider.
The cracks became deeper and deeper, vaguely revealing the deep and void darkness.
All the skulls, including the crystal skull, also had small cracks, and it seemed that they would be completely shattered before long.
At this time, Lumian felt that the coldness in his body was lessened, and the cracking of all skulls stopped suddenly, as if they were temporarily stopped by an invisible external force.
This also brought the process of collapse and destruction of the "other world" to a standstill. Although it has not been reversed, it will not happen immediately.
"Did the Temperance demigods or the helpers they invited use their own abilities? Oceto seemed to have really escaped. After testing it with the banshee howl, she decisively gave up on this one that was obviously stronger than the other 'ladies'
'The other world', using the pre-prepared layout and the specialness here, escaped before the temperance people took action..." Seeing this scene in front of him, a series of thoughts flashed through Lumian's mind.
An old voice suddenly sounded in his ears:
"Don't just listen to what Osetto says himself.
"According to my experience, anyone who leaves so many words before escaping is either crazy or trying to cover up something.
"Osetto did decisively escape from here before we locked onto her, and she did intend to destroy this 'other world', but why did she tell us these purposes? Is it purely to vent her emotions?
"This is one reason, but there should be a more important reason. She wants us to focus on the collapse and destruction of this 'other world' and ignore others."
It is not that Lumian did not have some doubts after Oceto left his declarative words with the help of those human skulls, but it is quite normal for the "Rose School" orgies to behave similarly.
People who are accustomed to indulgence are always eager to show their emotions.
The old voice finally said:
"Time will tell."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lumian saw the insects with translucent rings flying out.
Suddenly, everything around him slowed down.
Everything Lumian saw before his eyes was covered with gray-white mist, making it extremely unreal.
Immediately afterwards, everything reflected on the illusory "curtain" began to go backwards. Those human skulls no longer had countless small cracks, the earth became flat again, and the rich shadows returned to the sky.
This is not turning back time, but recent history, and what happened in the past period is revealed.
Lumian then saw a pair of brown wings that could cover the sky, and the current shadow was what it left behind.
In the middle of these wings, each of which has feathers as big as a human head, is a female figure with her belly exposed.
The woman was as beautiful as the moon at night, and her face was filled with the glory of her mother, but her hands and feet were bent, with sharp nails that shone coldly.
This is none other than "Witch King" Oceto.
Lumian, who had seen her male appearance, recognized her at a glance. Her contour lines were softer and the details of her facial features were more refined.
And her belly was bulging high, with black blood vessels protruding from the surface. Only a thin layer was left, and a large number of bird-claw monster babies could be vaguely fused inside.
This... She stuffed all the bird-claw babies born from the corpses into her belly... What kind of monster is she breeding? No wonder she can't use blood connections to find the bird-claw monster babies, she can only sense them indirectly at a certain distance...
...At the same time that Lumian suddenly realized this, Oceto in the past scene put his hands towards his belly.
Amidst the stabbing sound, her abdomen was torn open bloodyly.
Osetto forcibly took out a baby that was slightly smaller than Ludwig. The baby's skin was pale and the flesh was rotten. There were four or five heads and seven or eight bird claws remaining on the surface. The baby's body was covered with a pure and clear layer.
Like the water film from Lake Darsh.
Oceto howled in pain and threw the baby into the eye socket of the crystal skull.
The rotten multi-headed baby was obviously much larger than the eye sockets of the skull and the bronze door in the eye sockets, but it strangely became smaller and smaller, and finally squeezed through the gap where only one palm could be extended, and disappeared into the infinity behind the door.
In the dark.
Osetto's deeper purpose was to send the strange baby into the underworld to make something terrible happen? Now, she was forced to give birth prematurely? As soon as Lumian had this thought, he realized that all the coldness in his body was
disappeared.
A female figure wearing a small black soft hat and a "sword knight" wearing a shirt and vest appeared in front of the crystal skull at the same time.
But they seemed unable to get through the cracked gap in the "Bronze Door", so they tried to open the door a little more.
Underworld... Lumian, who was wearing the golden mask of the Eggers family, felt relieved. Taking advantage of the current collapse of the "other world" being delayed by the temperance demigods, he activated the black mark on his right shoulder and "teleported" it to the crystal skull.
before.
In his eyes, the bronze door suddenly became extremely tall.
He stretched out his hands and pressed them on both sides of the bronze door.
An illusory and dull clicking sound followed, and the bronze door opened even more.
Lumian immediately felt the terrifying suction, and he couldn't help but squeeze through the crack of the door and plunge into the depths of darkness.
There were two more masses of coldness in his body.
