Musk is a mystery that Lu Ning originally thought was clear, but now she realizes that it does not seem to be within the scope of the current explanation. She participated in the final madness of the island and carried out the final massacre of all the people on the island, but logically this should not have happened.
Lu Ning suddenly felt a sharp ringing in her ears. She took a step back, and a large group of snowflakes appeared in front of her in the servant's room. Musk stood up from her seat, everything around her looked like an old TV with bad signal, as if she herself was a source of interference.
"Have you heard, Master..."
"I don't know what happened yesterday, my memory..."
"Three days later, it will be Madam's funeral..."
"The atmosphere here has become increasingly..."
"Howard family! This is a rare..."
The disturbing sounds began to reverberate after the tinnitus. Both the direction and timbre of the sounds were different. They were not the sounds of one person, or even at the same time.
Are there any secrets on Bamoku Island?
Lu Ning felt that her body was heating up, but this was probably an illusion, because if it really became this hot, she would have died long ago. But what kind of existence is musk? Why did she see her in the maid's room?
"Tsk."
Lu Ning bit her tongue to clear her mind a little. Musk was walking towards her, but there was no strong sense of oppression in her movements. Lu Ning stepped aside slightly, and Musk passed her directly.

Lian Qingyi and Xin Gong were sitting in the hall. Neither of them needs to attend the family banquet, and the meeting at this time has already been agreed upon.
"I didn't feel it or see it," Lian Qingyi said.
"Because this island is still in a normal state, but I am very sure, because in the first round between Asaka Shinmiya and Sora Tsuburaya, they were killed by Musk's ghost." Shinmiya looked serious, "Combined with the current situation Judging from the known information, this seems to be a magical effect produced by the island's tendency to magic, but there is a problem here, that is, magic should not create a musk here."
"Why?"
"Because the magic here is tilted out of control was also designed by Rennix. The ritual he prepared needs to meet the number eight and does not require a ninth servant. Even though this is another ritual that has been passed down by the Howard family for many years, The two cannot be equated."
Xingong pointed to his head: "I made an initial interpretation of the magic and magic here through the incomplete knowledge in my mind. Coupled with some of the things I just saw, I can basically understand the various things prepared on the Eight Eyes Island. There is a general inference for similar rituals. I am sure that if Renix’s entire ritual is multiple overlapping rings, then it includes most of the people on the island, with only a few independent ones.”
"who?"
"Lu Ning, Watanabe Yuanzi, and Yu Guiting, I'm pretty sure about these three. In addition, it definitely doesn't contain musk, and musk didn't appear at all in these rounds."
"But Musk is on the island?" Lian Qingyi touched his beard, "That's very strange. A character who has never appeared before should have been identified. Lista has never raised this issue."
"We all know that Lista took this paragraph from history. What she did was copy, but copying does not mean that she can fully understand all the settings." Heart Palace said, "I am looking for you for help. It’s because I think the world is not bad. I don’t want the end result of our efforts to be just a tragedy and achieve nothing in the end.”
"Do you want to survive?" Lian Qingyi glanced at Xin Gong, but he was wearing a pair of sunglasses and couldn't see clearly.
"Of course, this is normal. Does the Crime Knight think this is also a kind of evil?"
"No, the target range we are targeting is very narrow, it can even be said that it is only tourists." Lian Qingyi curled his lips, "No matter what the people in the scene did, I can't make an accurate judgment like I can with tourists, and you …Not considered a tourist.”
"Okay, that's not bad." Xin Gong leaned back and leaned on the sofa, "Mr. Lian, shall we cooperate? I have told you the last secret, just to gain a chance."
"I--"
Before Lian Qingyi responded, he stood up suddenly. He stared at the exit from the corridor leading to the hall from the servant's room with a serious expression.
"What's wrong?"
"Do you feel anything abnormal?" Lian Qingyi closed his hands and tapped lightly with his fingers. A strange rhythm began to spread as he tapped, and some snowflakes began to appear in the air.
Heart Palace also stood up. The moment she saw the snowflakes, she tried to analyze them using traceability knowledge, but this time she failed.
She could only see that this was a magical phenomenon, but she could not analyze the overall composition and root form. This had never happened before when using the traceability theory.
"Mr. Lian, something doesn't seem right."
A person finally appeared in the corridor, and both of them were already on high alert. And the person who appeared in the beautiful snowflakes and distorted environment was... Lu Ning.
She had a serious expression and her cold eyes fell on the two people. Lian Qingyi and Xin Gong felt palpitations at the same time. It was clearly Lu Ning there, but they didn't feel that Lu Ning was looking at them.
There was something looking at the world through her eyes.
"Judgment mark." Lian Qingyi muttered, and then the armrest of the chair in his hand quickly twisted into a stabbing sword and fell into his hand.
At this time, Lu Ning spoke, and a sound mixed with a lot of noise came out of her mouth. The two of them could not hear what she was saying.
"You continue to calculate, I'll give it a try." Lian Qingyi crossed the sofa in two steps, and with one stab of the sword in his hand, he stabbed the sign that only he could see. Lu Ning tilted her head slightly, and a pale mass flashed through her pupils. Lian Qingyi suddenly found that the mark he had stamped on it had been erased. He stabbed it in the direction he remembered, but it came up empty.
Xin Gong clearly saw that the moment the sword struck Lu Ning, large snowflakes appeared on Lu Ning's body. After the snowflakes dissipated, she had moved to the side, and then raised her arm.
"careful!"
Lian Qingyi did not see what Xin Gong saw, but he dodged without hesitation. In his eyes, Lu Ning stood still and did not move. Only the air was suddenly filled with a large number of snowflakes.
An incomprehensible attack.
Fortunately, tourists had seen too many incomprehensible attacks. Even if Lian Qingyi couldn't distinguish them, he knew he should stay away. Lu Ning... or rather someone who didn't know what he was, obviously had a certain amount of hostility, and he didn't want to try what would happen if he was hit.
At the same time, Lu Ning looked at the Heart Palace.
this person……
"She's not Lu Ning!" Xin Gong felt a little nervous. The traceability theory could basically infer that the person in front of her was just a weird magical phenomenon, but her calculations of this phenomenon were always wrong. The problem still lies in the lack of knowledge. In a simple metaphor, the traceability theory is a relatively complicated general formula. She can solve it by just substituting the observation results into it. However, she does not know how this formula is derived, so she cannot Adapt this formula.
The normal world is almost all covered by formulas, but this "Lu Ning" in front of her is not.
The next second, Xin Gong saw that "Lu Ning" was already standing in front of her, almost face to face. A large number of distorted strips of light combined to form the face in front of her, but it could only bring people... The uncanny valley effect. Xin Gong avoided moving backwards almost subconsciously, but fell directly into a mass of snowflakes behind him.
There was a violent ringing in the ears.
"Well!"
After feeling dizzy in front of his eyes, Xin Gong suddenly found that everything around him had fallen into a state like an old photo. Both "Lu Ning" and Lian Qingyi had disappeared, but she was still in the main hall. , but felt that the surrounding environment was crumbling.
"The second unlucky one is you."
At this time, a voice came from behind. Xingong turned around and almost punched her out, because Lu Ning was not far behind her, sitting on an armchair.
"It seems that you have also been frightened a lot? Sit down. Although it looks unstable here, there won't be any problems for a while." Lu Ning looked relaxed. Xin Gong sat down with some surprise and asked: "What's going on?"
"Obviously, we missed a mystery and didn't solve it, and now there's a problem." Lu Ning smiled, "Musk. We always thought that Rennix's plan covered all the problems on the island, and we also thought that we understood Rennix's plan. Afterwards, the plans of people like Nix and Lista basically solved all the mysteries on this island, at least I think they all have reasonable explanations. We missed a possible situation."
"I never thought that I would just use what I have." Xingong spread his hands, "The traceability theory cannot be analyzed. Lian Qingyi discovered the anomaly first."
"His vigilance is indeed relatively strong, but it is of no use because the phenomenon has been triggered by me."
"Did you cause it?"
"It was my negligence, but I didn't know there was such a problem before." Although Lu Ning said this, she was not anxious at all. "I have just figured out the general situation. This is a kind of... natural Phenomenon."
"Natural phenomenon?" Xin Gong said unexpectedly, "Can this also be a natural phenomenon?"
"A self-consistent phenomenon that will form in a magical environment. Think about it, before this meeting, Rennix had actually kept the tradition of convening nine servants every year, and used these servants to construct meaningful rituals here , forming unique magic... all this is for his plan. In the magic systems under the known origins of magic, of course there is no problem with this behavior, but the magic environment here contains Rennix's attempt to The magic power collected directly beyond the origin of magic, and the properties of the masterless magic power cannot be studied by one person in a lifetime."
"so what?"
"So the magic power of this island has formed a mark, just like the ornaments left for decades will leave traces on the cabinet." Lu Ning pointed around, "What you see now is the mark left by the magic power. If you carefully observe the traces in this space, you will find that many things in it are changing and do not necessarily maintain a fixed form, but there should be such a thing here - this is the memory method of magic."
"Because there has been no change here for many years..."
"Yes, and when the entire magic ceremony was started, the mark of this magic was also activated. Ah, the biggest problem is me. The old magic on the island changes slowly no matter how it is activated, but I brought fresh The return of the ownerless magic power immediately caused unexpected changes, which should have happened after the magic power on the island went out of control."
Lu Ning stood up from the chair that had been turned into a sofa, reached out and fished a handful in the air, and then grabbed a pot of tea.
"To put it simply, you became the second source of interference and amplified the problem here." Xingong nodded, "There should have been a ninth servant now, but this time there was no one due to unexpected reasons. Lei Knicks actually doesn’t need to add anything, but the island remembers that there is such a person here.”
"Yes, the mismatch between the reality and the magic memory caused a bug on this island. This is a natural phenomenon that we ignored." Lu Ning said.
"Now that your investigation is so clear, what's the solution?" Xingong asked.
"Not yet." Lu Ning raised his head and looked, "We will appear here because we have been remembered. We are brand new to the magic here. The problem is that such a bug probably does not exist on the island. He is just one person, and there must be something in Rennix’s overall plan that he later discarded, and he even planned follow-up plans for various unsuccessful rituals.”
"Wait, doesn't that mean the so-called madness..."
"I think that's it. The essence of madness is a bug caused by the island's magic deviating from its original mark. As the ritual is destroyed, more and more missing parts are missing, and the entry of external magic through the gap creates more... The big stimulus eventually led to a problem in everyone’s cognition—it was broken.”
Before Lu Ning finished speaking, the Heart Palace disappeared in front of her, and the unstable environment around her quickly returned to the appearance of a servant's room after a blur.
BUG has left here, but Lu Ning is still thinking about the problem she just thought of.
If Watanabe Fuchiko's plan is to destroy all Renix's plans, then this "imprint bias" will occur on the entire island. Even if it can ensure that everyone survives, it will not prevent the final destruction of Yame Island.
And those big clusters of snowflakes... indicate that it is still unstable, but we cannot wait until it truly stabilizes and forms a definite "phenomenon"!
