If time freezes at this moment, through the gap in the crowd, you can see a calm eye.
The center of the eye was a shining ruby, and the edges were pale gold with complex lines.
That's one of Olivia Windchime's eyes.
The owner of that eye seemed completely unmoved by such a desperate situation.
In the blink of an eye, the girl's innocence is revealed.
"Sean, squat down!"
The bronze-bone umbrella unfolded, and a crimson light swirled around her.
Broken limbs and blood suddenly flew up.
The immortal green halo isolated the red blood, and there was no trace of blood on the delicate girl's clothes.
The lunatic people, with their tongues drooping, were stunned for a moment like a pack of wolves being attacked by a lion.
At this moment, Olivia's voice was clean: "Reader, I will protect you at this moment."
Under the urging of the music, the mad people were not afraid of the beasts, and they howled and pounced on them again.
Holding the white ivory umbrella handle in her hand, Olivia was about to throw out the bronze umbrella to protect Sean...
The lights on the ceiling suddenly lit up one by one!
Snapped! Snapped! Snapped! …
In a short time, all the lights that had previously been extinguished came on.
The sudden light caused all humans, including Sean, to cover their eyes.
Olivia looked around with some confusion, not knowing whether she should take action.
On the radio, the blurry "Red Rose in the Sea" finally stopped and was replaced by the majestic music before the mayor spoke.
After the music ended, Tesler's voice came from the radio: "Dear residents of Ocean City, Fuller Verne has just resigned as mayor of Ocean City. Now, it is up to me to perform the duties of mayor."
Everyone has heard Nikola Tesler's voice.
After the music stopped, the lights suddenly turned on, and after hearing this calm and restrained voice, the crazy people with red eyes and tongues hanging out of their mouths stopped moving and just gasped violently.
"I declare that due to the serious damage caused to the city, this session of 'Golden Hunting Ground' is over..."
The crowd erupted in dissatisfaction.
Tesler continued: "Next, the Ocean City Sheriff's Department will take over the city again - and anyone who disobeys the order will be disqualified as a resident of Ocean City."
The yelling and cursing still didn't stop.
However, without that crazy music, the remaining sanity of the citizens finally returned little by little...
Sheriff's Department officers in dark blue uniforms also took to the streets.
Order is about to return to Ocean City.
People who still had the murderous intention refused to put down their weapons for a while, and they began to confront the sheriff...
Sean unobtrusively returned to the rooftop of the flower shop and entered the room from the rooftop.
Alicia's face turned rosy, and she opened her eyes wide, her green pupils shining brightly: "Resolved...?"
Sean nodded.
In the room, everyone cheered happily...
The struggle to survive in the darkness just now plunged everyone into despair.
The return of lighting made them feel much safer.
When the sound of the radio stopped temporarily, Sean dialed Tesler's secret phone number...
——
It took about a day to bring order back to Ocean City, during which citizens and sheriffs still died, but Sean and others knew that the fault lay with Fuller Verne.
Because Nikolai Tesler, as the technical director, had a high reputation in Ocean City, he successfully took over the position of mayor after Verne disappeared.
However, during this turbulent period, Sean was not careless. He and his companions protected Tesler almost around the clock to prevent Verne's remnants or any lunatic controlled by Kluwetan from attacking the Tesler. The national inventor was assassinated.
Fortunately, he doesn't have to worry about Tesler being controlled by the Lord of Dreams - he is born with a high level of rationality and does not have the faith to be easily influenced by the mysterious. If Kluwetan wants to control him, it will be very difficult in a short time. hard.
Therefore, during this special period, Sean and his party simply moved into the Ecstasy Building, which could be tightly guarded.
Alicia has other things to do.
After the riot ended and they returned to the industrial area, they found that Rabbi Lins' body was missing.
Although it was confirmed that Rabbi Lins was dead at the time, the disappearance of the body still made Alicia a little uneasy.
After the death of Rabbi Lins Pompey, the Daedalus Foundation was left leaderless. With the support of Wendy, Wright, and the returning Jennifer, Alicia temporarily took over the Ocean City Foundation headquarters after suppressing a rebellion.
However, only one of the three Ace-level members in the outside world recognized the young new president.
The other two were originally loyal supporters of Rabbi Lins. They returned to Europe and announced that Europe was the headquarters of the Daedalus Foundation.
Since then, the Daedalus Foundation has split into two factions: Continental and Ocean City.
However, the two Aces were unable to do anything to Alicia for a while - after taking over Ocean City, Tesler suspended tourism and immigration in Ocean City.
They have no way of entering Ocean City, and there is no way they could pose a threat to Alicia.
Although many people were dissatisfied with Rabbi Lins' attempt to use the Philosopher's Stone to become a god, Alicia Pompeo's patricide was also not understood by everyone in the foundation. Not only did nearly 30% of the members leave Ocean City, Headquarters and European Headquarters also issued a wanted order for her.
Her difficult time has not yet begun.
However, peace has temporarily returned to Ocean City.
In between arranging personnel and work at the headquarters, Alicia took time to rush to the Ecstasy Building to meet with Sean.
In the coffee shop on the seventeenth floor of the Ecstasy Building, the female chess player placed the white porcelain coffee cup on the tray and looked at the dark green sea water around her with indifferent eyes.
"Recovering well." Sean smiled.
Alicia subconsciously put her hand on her still aching abdomen and glanced at Wendy, Wright and Jennifer who were protecting her: "It just looks good."
"Where are Moonlight and Evan? How are they recovering?"
Whether it is elixir mist or first-aid carbonated syrup, these mysterious healing methods can only temporarily restore the function of the injured body. It still takes time to fully recover.
"They're doing much better, too."
Sean, who was also looking at the fish swimming outside the window, suddenly felt a warmth on the back of his right hand.
Turning his head, he saw Alicia leaning over and gently pressing Sean's hand with her little hand.
There was sincerity and a hint of smile in her green pupils.
"Thank you, Sean - things wouldn't be like this if it weren't for you."
Thinking of the hellish torment of cutting off the wings and the plan to kill the lion, Sean felt relaxed all over at this moment. He raised his eyebrows and took a sip of coffee.
"The only thing that is reassuring is that Rabbi Lins' body has disappeared."
Alicia sighed slightly: "Maybe his loyal subordinates took away his body.
"However, people cannot be resurrected after death, and there is no evidence that Rabbi Lins became a wraith...
“So, no need to worry too much.
"As I promised you before..." Alicia sat upright again - she was wearing a white dress today, and the lady's hat on her head was also white with black rims, looking quite elegant, "Next, let's It’s time to find a way to rescue your sister.”
