Those soldiers recognized the identity of the monster. Since they could shout out the circle, it proved that the monster was related to the cult organization.
The prison was bombarded with great fanfare, traps were set up through the breaches in the walls, and the prisoners were lured into this area to become lambs to be slaughtered...
Why do this?
Where did the cultists go? Did the operation Bilbo participated in really annihilate them all?
"From the diary, it appears that the dwarf soldier escaped from here. How did he do it?" De Gaulle was full of questions.
Victor subconsciously replied: "Maybe the problem lies in that..."
boom!
Before he finished speaking, there was a heavy crushing sound upstairs, and the entire floor was shaking, as if it was about to collapse.
As the dust on the ceiling scattered, Victor and De Gaulle immediately moved away from the dangerous position. Then there was a loud noise, the ceiling really collapsed, and a fishy wind spread instantly.
The monster they had seen earlier sat down on the rubble, covered in blood. The immense pressure brought by its huge body forced the two of them to run out of the room in a hurry.
When the monster discovered that there was a living person, it crashed through the door frame with a loud bang and swung a huge metal rod towards the two of them.
Fortunately, they ran fast and were not hit by the monster's metal rod after they were far away.
At the same time, they took out their guns and shot at the monster. The monster's body was not bulletproof and suffered several wounds. It roared in pain.
Something was thrown over by it, and Victor subconsciously dodged it, only to see a human head rolling around on the ground. It was the unlucky guy just now.
The monster did not expect that the two newcomers had weapons in their hands. After being hit by several bullets, the monster began to retreat, threw away the metal rod, and ran to the stairwell and then upstairs.
"Don't chase, I'm out of bullets." De Gaulle called to Victor and told him not to be impulsive.
Victor also checked the bullets. Like de Gaulle, he had finished one round, and now he still had three bullets in his body, while de Gaulle still had six rounds left.
"I should have brought more bullets," de Gaulle muttered.
Victor doesn't care, after all, he still has the fire spell.
"The fact that the dwarf came back intact after being captured by the monster and successfully escaped here shows that he discovered something in the monster's lair." The thrilling encounter just now did not stop de Gaulle's brain from functioning. He quickly saw
Something went wrong.
"We have to touch and find the monster to know the answer. However, the problem now is that we don't have many bullets left. If we run out and can't kill it, it will be in trouble."
After de Gaulle finished speaking, Victor asked him what his plan was.
Sure enough, this guy had already thought of an idea.
"It's too risky for the two of us to stay together. One of us can come out as a bait to lure it away, and the other person can sneak into its lair to see what's going on." As he said this, de Gaulle grabbed Victor's pistol and said, "Take your gun too."
Lend me a lesson, people who are baits must have more self-protection capabilities."
Having said this, it proves that de Gaulle has decided to be the bait himself.
This division of labor is actually the best. There may be something else in the monster's lair, and Victor will be more confident if he goes to investigate.
Now that both of them agree, the plan begins.
Based on the undried blood stains left by the monster, they judged the monster's escape path and finally tracked it to the interrogation room upstairs.
The scene there was quite horrifying, the door was open, it was red inside, and all kinds of shuddering human limbs were scattered around. It is difficult to describe in detail.
The two observed that there were multiple interrogation racks in the room, and on the racks were prisoners who had been tortured to death, and the monster was lying in front of a corpse, constantly stuffing its stomach with the disgusting mixture scattered on the ground.
"Hide it somewhere...hide it there..."
Victor recalled the descriptions in the diary, and then looked at these interrogation racks, and suddenly thought, is it torturing these humans just to find out about the hidden "thing"?
"Are you ready? I will sneak to the opposite side, lure the monster away, and then find a cell to hide in. Leave a mark on the door. You move quickly, and we will meet downstairs." De Gaulle said with all his strength.
A low voice said to Victor.
Victor couldn't help but tease: "What will you do if you are caught?"
"I'm not that fragile..." De Gaulle didn't take the time to argue with him, and ran to the other side as soon as he finished speaking.
He made an attention-grabbing noise, and the monster was attracted to raise its head, its upright mouth full of sharp teeth.
The body was as bloated as a ball of flesh, but its movements were not slow. It grabbed a rusty iron saw on the table behind it and chased de Gaulle out of the interrogation room.
The ground shook for a while, and Victor entered the house and carefully inspected the situation inside.
As he looked at the unbearable scenes inside, he gradually regretted his division of labor.
In addition to blood and human remnants on the ground, there were also torn prison uniforms and prison guard uniforms.
Not only that, but there are also some costumes that obviously do not belong to the people in the prison, such as the fishermen on the island.
This proves that someone, like them, accidentally entered the trap in this different space and was caught by the monster.
The slaughterhouse-like sight made Victor feel sick to his stomach, but he was not without gain. On many walls, he saw circle symbols similar to those on the backs of monsters. They were drawn very clearly, like a snake biting its own tail.
"Ring..."
Victor murmured to himself, his pupils suddenly constricted.
"This is ouroboros, the wheel of fortune!"
The Wheel of Fortune connects butterflies and dreams on the sex tree, and its symbol is the Ouroboros.
This pattern is exactly the same as the Ouroboros on the same-sex photo card.
The set of golden tarot cards that Victor stole from Di Leo's house is the Wheel of Fortune.
With such an obvious pattern, Victor quickly linked Bilbo's various doubts.
His last action when he joined the army was to wipe out the cult "Circle".
During that mission, he must have harvested something valuable from the cult village. He would suddenly become rich after returning, and those valuable things might include the Golden Tarot Card of the Wheel of Fortune.
If the tarot card in Victor's hand is really what everyone is looking for, then this thing must be sacred and important to the cult organization "The Circle".
Inferring from this, "Ring" actually had a reason to kill Dilio.
If the organization that attacked the prison was the remnants of the Circle, then this monster was the jailor or inquisitor they arranged.
The monster is also torturing the prisoners in this prison in another space, and is also looking for something. This proves that the organization behind it is clear that several soldiers who were on the mission to massacre the village were imprisoned here.
Dilio's murderer, Dilio's wife, the ugly fat monster and the ring.
Is what they are looking for tarot cards? Or is it something else?
According to the diary and what Victor has seen now, the group of prisoners at that time should all be dead, and the few soldiers who were reported should also be dead except for the dwarf.
Only the dwarf escaped from this terrible prison.
So how did he do it?
Victor endured nausea and vomiting and scanned the entire monster's lair, but found no other valuable clues.
Except...a weird dice floating in the scarlet water tank...
