All the materials were ready. It took about a morning for Lu Ning and Zhu You to place the Witch's Heart, Witch's Eye, Witch's Oath and Witch's Key in the appropriate positions. Lu Ning returned to the lake, where there was a body swimming slowly under the water.
Milly probably never thought that her body would be used again after she died.
"Your brother threw you into the woods, and I picked you up and made you the final boss of this scene. It seems like I'm treating you better." Lu Ning twitched her fingers twice. Like an invisible thread guiding her, Milly slowly walked out of the water. Her body has been sewn up, and the guide wires that were roughly made according to the witch's instructions have been well integrated with the body. Now Milly can be said to be a qualified witch's costume, ready for the ceremony to begin at any time. .
Lu Ning made a final inspection and confirmed that the witch's clothes were fully qualified, then waved her back to the lake.
This witch's clothing is the most important part for the success of the plan, and there should be no spare parts in Baihu Town. Even if Lu Ning wants to make a second one, it will take about one more day, and during this time she Can't quite afford to wait.
"Lu Ning, it's time to leave here. There are people in the town coming this way." Zhu You emerged from the woods and waved to greet Lu Ning.
"learn."
Lu Ning ran out of the beach in a few steps. Her footprints were quickly swallowed up by the fine sand and quickly became smooth as before, as if no one had been there at all.
=============
At this time, inside the hotel, Tachikawa opened the door of the next door, and there was no one inside.
"Are you leaving?" Fujii asked behind Tachikawa.
"Yes, then Asayama must be a demon, right?" Suiyama stretched his head and took a look at the room. It was filled with clutter, and there seemed to be a lot of it, but there was not a single thing left that could be used as evidence. Come down.
"There is no evidence, although it is judged that there is no one else except him. But Asayama..." Fujii frowned in thought. She felt that there was still some problem that was missed. Is Asayama really an obstacle to Lu Ning staying here? Or do you have another plan of action? Lu Ning's self-reported identity was interpreted as her plan has been basically completed, but in Fujii's view, there is still the possibility of spreading suspicion.
"If Asayama is really a demon, what is he doing now? Cooperating with Lu Ning's actions?" Sugiyama asked.
"From what I can see, we are dealing with the remaining affairs in the town. Among the five key figures, only Mr. Levin is still intact." Tachikawa Ryo said, "We can go to Mr. Levin's place to wait."
There's something wrong... there's something wrong...
Fujii felt her head start to heat up, and there was a slight pain in the wound. She couldn't help but reach out and touch the bottle of medicine that Lu Ning left for her, but she still resisted the urge.
Which one is a trap and which one is the real purpose? Lu Ning, Qian Shan... linear contact...
She felt that she had grasped a key, but the thought only flashed through her mind.
"Miss Fujii, we are about to leave. Is your physical condition feasible?" Ryo Tachikawa asked.
"I can move around." Fujii replied, but he couldn't catch the inspiration just now.
People in the town began to take out black boxes one by one from the cellar of Herman's house. No one knew what the purpose of these boxes was, but they were just ordered to move them to the lakeside cabin.
The old mayor said that this may be a glimmer of hope for Baihu Town.
But Kaderina knew that this was just a fight for her life. Lu Ning did not set a dead end for Baihu Town. On the contrary, the current actions may lead the continuing Baihu Town into an unknown world.
Karl didn't know when he had appeared in her room.
"Madam, although this is rude, I must remind you that there is not much time. The Hermann family has a lot of witch skeletons in stock, but we don't know what kind of amount is needed to blow up time... This may only be Only a witch can understand.”
"But what is the result of doing this?" Kaderina sat in front of the desk, without looking back at Karl, just holding a pile of calculation manuscripts and bowing her head in thought.
"At least we can make the town of White Lake where we are independent from the shackles of the witch, instead of standing still on that timeline with no hope. And no matter what the future is, at least it belongs to you."
"This has nothing to do with you, does it?" Katrina shook her head slightly, "You are not humans bound by the witch, and you don't need to worry about the past and future like a curse, so you don't have to bear the consequences. .”
"Sorry, that's not what I meant."
"I mean... indeed, this is a solution that White Lake Town should take the initiative to find. I'm just worried that it won't perfectly solve the witch's problem. After all, the witch's skeleton was delivered to us by the witch."
"Just think that it doesn't want to be dragged down by that huge past, so it has given you a way to actively escape. I will personally take charge of this matter and ensure that the witch's skeleton is detonated at the appropriate location."
After Karl finished speaking, he disappeared.
At the same time, a car drove out from the north side of the town and soon turned into the mountain road. It was not until there was no way up that Robert, Shen Lishu and Ye Chuqing got out of the car and started walking along the rugged road. Mountain climbing.
"I need a location, a position, because the location of the lakeside hut has been determined, so Lu Ning's plan may be to use our hands to complete the return of the witch, and we cannot allow all six locations to be completed. And if the time is tonight, Then she should have completed the arrangement in the morning, and we still have a chance to destroy it."
Shen Lishu was holding the Dayan horoscope. Of course, he only used it as a compass now. Even if it was just that, he still needed Ye Chuqing to support him to climb up the mountain.
Because it was impossible for Lu Ning to arrange the six locations in places that were easy to find, and there were many mountains and forests around Baihu Town. Although they were not high, they were quite undulating. It would be very difficult to find them if they were placed in these locations.
Robert held on to a few silver coins as a warning and detection, while Shen Almanac continued to search for possible locations to place the ritual materials. This process was boring and urgent, but fortunately the three of them were able to endure it.
Time passed minute by minute, and when everyone was preparing for the final battle, Yu Guiting finally found that he was left alone.
"I was discovered..." He smiled to himself.
In the morning, when Shen Lishu and Ye Chuqing came back to talk about last night's experience, they just casually mentioned the explanation about "renegades" left by Yiluo. After that, everyone discussed topics related to Lu Ning, Demons, and rituals. , Yu Guiting also wondered why no one paid attention to this matter.
Now it seems that everyone has already guessed.
"Rebel..." Yu Guiting walked to the door of the hotel and saw the boss's two children still playing at the door, as if they had no idea what drastic changes the town had experienced these days. He squatted down and took out something from his pocket. Two pieces of candy were handed to the children.
"Hello, uncle!"
"It's getting late, it's time to have dinner, don't run too far." Yu Guiting said with a smile.
"Eh? Is uncle going out?"
"Well, uncle is an adult and can go out for a walk." Yu Guiting rubbed a child's head, then stood up and walked out of the town along the widest road in the town.
Yes, unlike Yiluo, Yu Guiting still understands how to deal with the status of a traitor. The simplest way for him is to work without exerting any effort. However, other tourists are not fools. After such a long time, they all see Out.
"Thankfully, I actively signed up to go to the mine..."
Yu Guiting leaned on the fence, looking up at the golden sun that was setting in the west. The warmth of the sun shining on his face made him feel a little lazy. Only a special person like him could still have such a feeling at such a time. It's leisurely.
"Good luck to you all."
=============
Karl came to the lakeside hut and investigated carefully, but found no trace of Lu Ning and Zhu You. He was holding a piece of paper. This was the last star that could communicate with Fujii.
"Are you at Levin's place? Okay, just protect him. Pay attention to Qianshan's ability to release fog. That ability is very difficult to deal with."
"The fog area is not large. We are already familiar with the terrain within about three hundred meters of the surrounding area. There will be no problem in rushing out." Fujii's voice was slightly weak.
"Where is your body?"
"Lu Ning gave me a bottle of medicine."
"who?"
"Lu Ning, she said she also hopes that I can use this bottle of medicine to continue some plans when necessary."
"what's the plan?"
"I don't know either! I'm thinking about what kind of traps Lu Ning has arranged. I can't guarantee that we can understand all her true purposes! She..."
Fujii's words were suddenly interrupted by Karl.
"She's in front of me."
The sound stopped suddenly.
Right in front of Karl, about thirty meters away, Lu Ning stood generously between two trees, with a smile on his face. She didn't have much time to change her clothes, so she still retained traces of last night's battle, with a piece of her sleeves and trouser legs missing. But even so, Karl was in no mood to comment on this.
Lu Ning reached into her arms, and Karl immediately touched his pistol, but Lu Ning did not take out any weapon, but half a bottle of slightly golden wine.
"It's still daytime, Karl." Lu Ning raised the bottle of mead toward Karl, "Don't be busy, everything is ready, isn't it?"
"Are you ready?" Karl's expression didn't change much, but it was unclear what was going on in his heart.
"Oh, that's right, you still need this."
Lu Ning shook her arm with sleeves, and a key fell from her sleeve into her palm. She raised it so that Karl could see the key clearly.
"The Witch's Key? You have indeed collected it..."
"It's just an accident. I didn't deliberately collect this, but I can't give this to you now."
"But I can grab it."
"This is not fair at all, cowboy." Lu Ning tossed the key, "And this is your responsibility. If Xia Xinhe doesn't cause damage in the future, it doesn't matter if I let you use this key to open the door of the lake house."
"This excuse..."
"This is no excuse, Mr. Karl." Lu Ning opened her arms, "I think since you have prepared enough witch skeletons, you must also use it to explode the node of time, right? The importance of the lakeside house There is no doubt about its sex, and since it has lost its time characteristics, it will be easier for you to stay in it for one night. But...unfortunately, Xia Xinhe destroyed the future world, or used some terrible means. I don't know What will happen if you open that door?”
"So?" Karl asked, staring at Lu Ning.
"So let the existence that knows how to deal with it come and let it solve it." Lu Ning said.
"In the end, we still need to perform the witch ritual, right? But we don't think anything good will happen if it really comes to this world."
"Fear comes from the unknown, Karl. When the witch comes to this world in a form that we can understand, it at least gives the people here a chance to understand it, instead of relying on the previous resonance full of probability. Communication may not be achieved. A peaceful outcome, but failure to communicate must be a declaration of war.”
"Yeah."
Karl took a deep breath, relaxed his posture a little, and showed a smile similar to the one on the first day.
"Then I declare war."
Then, Karl disappeared in an instant and jumped five meters away in front of him. He sprinted towards Lu Ning in a rapid sprint. During this jump, he not only skipped the distance, but also——
"The sound of gunfire and the light of fire will be eliminated."
Lu Ning's body evaded in advance. She had already started to evade when she saw Karl disappear. The bullet passed by her body, but failed to hurt her.
"There were three shots in the arms and legs. You were not prepared to kill me." Lu Ning also pulled out his pistol, "But you don't believe my words."
Karl snorted and started jumping time again.
"Two seconds." Lu Ning quickly emptied his pistol in a nearby direction. When Karl appeared again, he was right on the trajectory of one of the bullets. He was immediately shot in the arm, but he also pulled out his pistol. Shoot Lu Ning at close range!
However, the three bullets hitting Lu Ning's body made the sound of hitting metal.
Carl's expression changed, but Lu Ning immediately threw a flash bomb at him who was less than five meters away. He quickly lowered his hat, and the blazing flash illuminated the surroundings. By the time he could look away, Lu Ning had already turned around again. He ran to a place about ten meters away from him.
If you don't get close, there will be nothing you can do about Carl's jump time. Even if you can skip shooting and increase your concealment, you will lose this advantage when facing someone who knows your abilities head-on.
"If I guessed correctly, the witch's skeleton should have been transported by now. You know what this means." Lu Ning said calmly.
"Ah... you must have prepared the ceremony a long time ago, right? Waiting for us to deliver the witch's skeleton to your doorstep and send it to the ceremony location you want." Carl loaded new bullets into the revolver, slightly out of breath, "But, We didn’t underestimate you this time. Someone has already destroyed this huge ceremony venue surrounding Baisha Lake. Even if you have Zhu You’s help, I’m afraid you won’t be able to stop them in time.”
"You don't have enough manpower, and it's not that easy to find the location of ritual materials on the mountain. In order to prevent me from setting any traps, the team you sent must be of the reconnaissance and defense type. Robert, Ye Chuqing, and then lead The last one, Shen Lishu, who can read Feng Shui, is the best combination for you, right?" Lu Ning casually told Karl and others' arrangements.
"Qianshan told you this information?"
"Qianshan has his own things to do, just guessing about the formation of troops will be enough."
