Lista was unable to make the same judgment as Lu Ning. She could only detect that someone was targeting Rennix's plan, and that - or those people - were on the island at the moment.
"You two follow me."
A sense of crisis lingered in her heart. She originally thought that she had acted first by getting rid of Jason last night (although it was actually Lu Ning who did it). Little did she know that the enemy had already started the family dinner. Have you made plans before?
Judging from Jason's state, he is even just a variable arranged by Renix himself, far from being an enemy!
It is now eleven o'clock in the morning, the on-site inspection work in the garden is probably over, and the search for Lian Qingyi's room has also ended long ago. But since both sides have assigned people to handle things, the manpower in some places will obviously need to be reduced, such as the search for inheritance and the care of Arisa Saotome.
"Who is in charge of guarding Arisa Saotome now?"
"Most people have things to do. Miss Delores and Mr. Makailov are ultimately responsible for the care of Mrs. Saotome," Lavender replied.
I feel a little bad when I hear the selection.
To say that the three most timid people on the island must be Makailov, Schlitt and Delores. They can basically only follow others to do some search work. Once they encounter something, they are absolutely Can't count on it. This is a common situation among ordinary people, and Lista would not blame them harshly, but she felt very bad at this time. Either these two people can't stand each other, or there is something wrong with these two people!
When she ran to the door of the room where Arisa Saotome was guarding, she smelled the smell of blood.
"Lock."
The illusory iron chain quickly wrapped around the door, and Lista walked through the iron chain into the room, her expression still maintaining an indifference.
Tsuburaya Temple was huddled in the corner of the room, holding a chair in his hand, trying to protect himself, but the person he was dealing with, Delores, was not paying attention to him.
In the blood-spattered room, Dolores held a knife and was cutting Arisa Saotome's body like a man possessed, even though the other person was already dead.
Hearing the voice behind her, Dolores slowly turned her head, and a strange smile appeared on her blood-stained face.
"Miss Delores?"
The scene in front of him was disgusting, not only Dolores' almost crazy behavior, but also the uncomfortable and weird magic that filled this room.
"Lista...hahaha, Lista!"
Dolores suddenly plunged the knife into the corpse's abdomen, stood up unsteadily, and stared at Lista with her bloodshot eyes.
"You are not in good condition." Lista frowned. She could feel that the twisted feeling had enveloped Dolores. The root of this distortion came from the pollution of magic, as if it was exerted The "filthy shadow" on her father and others was like magic. However, Lista also knew that this magic was also specifically aimed at magicians. The most it could do to ordinary people would be to cause them to die suddenly on the spot.
Going crazy is not a symptom that should occur.
"Mr. Sora Tsuburaya, what aroused her?"
At this point, she could only ask the other person in the room.
"I, I, I don't know! She, she was sitting there, and then suddenly asked Saotome some questions, and then took out a knife and cut her throat! I didn't even react!" Tsuburaya Terakura answered loudly. , but he can still explain things clearly.
"Aha, this has nothing to do with Mr. Tsuburaya Terakura." Dolores dipped a little of the blood on her face with her finger and smiled morbidly, "I really can't stand it anymore. I'm afraid. It's very dangerous." I’m afraid that I won’t be able to do anything with my own hands until I die.”
"You came here intentionally to target the Howard family." Lista frowned, "Or maybe you are targeting Arisa Saotome?"
"Aren't these two bastards worth targeting?" Dolores's smile suddenly faded, and she glanced at the corpse on the ground with a look like looking at garbage, "You don't think that the Dream Eaters Club is just a high-class club?" Social circle, right?”
"I know a little bit about Uncle Ito's situation." Lista said warily, "At least he hasn't really touched on human relations issues, at most it's just some exotic ingredients. If you want to claim that you have been persecuted , then come up with some actual evidence.”
According to common sense, Lista didn't want to reason with the other party here at all. She should just use magic to kill the other party on the spot. At worst, she would knock him unconscious and deprive him of all combat power. However, now Dolores's strange magic power makes her She didn't dare to act rashly. If this was really the same magic as the Filthy Collapse, killing Dolores would only cause greater disaster.
"You want proof?"
Upon hearing this word, Dolores actually tilted her head and seemed to really think about it.
"Miss, is your brain not working well? Do people in your family leave evidence when they do something?"
"In this case, I can't accept such groundless accusations." Lista flicked her finger, and the chains extended from the door and coiled around Dolores, but Dolores didn't have any Instead of showing fear, he laughed: "That's right! That's it! This is how your Howard family does things! As long as the person with the problem is gone, the problem will no longer exist! I knew it, so I had to take action earlier!"
"You better calm down first."
As soon as Lista finished saying this, she heard Lavender's call from behind: "Miss! Be careful!"
Click!
The black film flashed in the air, blocking the chair that was thrown from behind. Lista threw a chain with her backhand and wrapped it around the neck of Sora Tsuburaya, who was attacking from behind.
"Mr. Writer?"
"Ho...ho!!!"
Tsuburaya Temple Sora, who had been able to answer questions clearly just now, seemed to have lost his mind and gone crazy. His eyes were bloodshot and his face was flushed. Blue and black blood vessels appeared on his arms and even on his face. He was being pulled by chains. The back of the neck did not calm down, but began to tear the chain.
There were the same marks on his body, which were weaker than those on Dolores, but Lista also noticed it.
Lavender and Iris outside the door rushed in and pushed Tsuburaya Temple Sora to the ground. The two of them were very careful in their actions. They were just restricting, not killing directly. Instead, Tsuburaya Temple Sora kept struggling and roaring, as if he had completely turned into a beast.
"Be careful." Lista instilled a little magic power into the chain, weakening Tsuburaya Temple Sora's power, and continued to stare at Dolores's actions. The movement here finally attracted the attention of others. Jack, Escher and others rushed to the door one after another, but after seeing the situation inside the door, they blocked the people coming from behind from entering.
The magic inside has become extremely dangerous.
"Delores, how did Tsuburaya Terakura offend you?" Lista continued to say to Delores, "He is not from the Howard family. At most, he only cooperates with the Howard family."
"How do I know what's going on with him? Maybe he also has a grudge against you? Just like me? Hahaha! I suddenly know, why don't you kill me? You are a magician, and you should be very... It’s very easy!”
Dolores wiped the blood from her face fiercely. At the same time, everyone saw that her hand had turned black.
"This..." Escher even made a sound of surprise, and of course Lista knew what he was surprised about.
The magic of Filthy Festering has a very strong destructive effect. Because of this, it also has strict requirements. The first thing that can bear its "festering" effect must be the corpse of the magician. In theory, ordinary people like Dolores It is simply impossible for such a change to occur. The magic disorder at the beginning of the ceremony can directly kill ordinary humans.
So, what happened to Dolores? She has already begun to show obvious symptoms of ulceration, and although Tsuburaya Temple Sora has not started yet, I am afraid it will soon.
Seeing everyone's surprised expressions, Dolores was also stunned for a moment, and then glanced at her palms.
She was stunned for a moment, her lips trembled, she took two steps back and bumped into the desk in the room.
"I, I, what happened to me? Am I going to die? Are you—"
"Don't you realize that you have a problem at all? No matter whether you followed Cynthia here to end things with Juno Ito and Arisa Saotome, this situation is not what you originally considered, right?" Lista tightened her hand. At this time, she had to consider the possibility that the other party would fester on the spot. Although she was pretty good at chatting with people, she had not practiced how to persuade a mentally disturbed person.
"It's all your fault!!!"
Dolores suddenly screamed hysterically. She grabbed her face with her blackened hands, but she screamed again. Her face began to curl up like shavings, and the bottom of her skin was already filled with black matter.
"Lock."
The illusory chain rolled out again and wrapped around Dolores. The tip of the chain pierced Dolores's abdomen directly, but she did not cry out in pain and instead continued to rub her face off.
The moment the chain touched Dolores, it immediately began to emit white gas, and the magic power that made up the chain was also contaminated. This was within Lista's expectation. She tapped lightly on the chain at her end, and the voice in her mouth turned into a dull sound: [Blind], [Prison].
Huge magic surged up, and the unpolluted energy in the room was mobilized to suppress and annihilate the twisted magic. However, in the process, the magic began to become more and more filthy, and even lavender and iris felt some magic. A sense of suffocation.
Dolores made some very weird sounds, but she was still wrapped in heavy chains and slowly locked beside the desk. Seeing that she could not break through, she even began to tear the chains around herself with her teeth. It seemed that her sanity was gradually disappearing.
However, at this moment, Escher outside the door suddenly threw three pieces of paper. The paper stretched rapidly in the air, wrapped around the waists of the three people in the room and dragged them outside.
"Escher!?" Lista was slightly startled, and then immediately noticed that Tsuburaya Temple Sora's body began to swell. The originally chubby body suddenly expanded into a balloon. The blood vessels under the skin burst, and black pus and blood began to seep out from them along with polluting magic power.
This is the normal reaction of ordinary people who are exposed to the filthy shadow. They cannot bear it and are completely killed by the chaotic magic!
boom!
The magic structure that Lista had just condensed to restrain Dolores was instantly destroyed by the explosion. Dolores broke free in an instant and was then involved in the chaotic magic. Everything in this room was blown into a mess, even some steel structure lamp stands and other furniture were twisted into strange shapes.
"Miss! This is too dangerous!" Escher said sternly, "You must pay attention to all possible problems, they have been seriously contaminated! Although we don't know the cause yet, this is a rare living ulcer... …”
"rainwater."
It was not loud, but a very penetrating voice came from behind everyone, and then a row of silver raindrops hung from the ceiling, as if forming a fence in front of everyone, intercepting the chaotic magic in the room. And a pitch black dagger.
Gustav and Justina finally arrived, and Justina immediately sealed the area around the room, and then Rennix added position magic to it, isolating all interactions inside and outside the room.
In the room, Dolores had completely turned into a black monster that was flowing with rotten liquid. One of its fingers is missing a section, but the liquid flowing from its body is condensing into the shape of a sharp dagger. Physically, the monster still retains the general shape of Dolores. There is no doubt that Dolores's athletic ability as a gymnast has been greatly enhanced by its body. Just now, no one even saw clearly what it was throwing. Got a dagger.
"Asana Shinmiya" in the crowd took a deep look at this thing. It was the same thing as the monster used to target the tourist Tsuburaya Temple Sora last night, and they were both the final product of the filthy shadow. However, what makes her a little confused is that she clearly killed the Howard family and arranged the dirty shadow. Why did Dolores react like this?
Maybe she wasn't the first to do this.
From the first scene, Fuchiko Watanabe knows that this island contains enough madness. When human cognition goes further and further off track, madness will spread, and incredible things will become easier to happen. Now, perhaps this phenomenon can be explained from a magical perspective.
Since something triggered in the first round ended up killing everyone on the island, it might not be impossible for this power to be triggered in this round.
While Watanabe Fuchiko was thinking about this problem, she quietly used the "copycat" to record the death of Tsuburaya Temple Sora.
