"Linda is so pathetic."
Tiantian couldn't help but sigh.
She seemed to think of her father and mother, who had cared for her in every possible way since childhood, but Linda, at such a young age, had to face such a cruel life.
"yes."
Xiu Ying also sighed, looking disappointed.
"We have no retreat now."
Chen Mo said in a low voice: "Brazenly robbed a priest from St. Randy's Cathedral, and also killed a clergyman in the process. Rhine City may now be under martial law. If this task cannot be completed today and tomorrow, insurance For the sake of safety, we must start our escape the day after tomorrow.”
Upon hearing this, Tiantian and Xieying Tianqi all showed solemn expressions.
The duration of this mission is one month.
But now only about ten days have passed, and the four of them are about to face a life-and-death test. Launching a general attack on this mission, plus today's time is also used to rush back to the temporary camp from the Rhine City, is really too hasty.
"However, we are not without gains."
Chen Mo glanced at the horrified Lange.
"You love more than just Nelina, right?"
Lange's expression changed, the fear on his face suddenly disappeared, and he looked at Chen Mo intently.
"What's the meaning?
"Hmph, Nelina, who wanted to end all this tragic fate, finally gave up the idea, but her attitude toward Linda changed 180 degrees. She fed her sleeping potions again and again, and moved her room Isn’t it just to reduce the housework so that I can spend more time with you?”
Chen Mo probed: "She is jealous of her daughter because she found out that you like Linda more, right?"
"You are shameless!"
Lango stood up angrily in the pit and roared hysterically.
"I only care about Linda. I saved her from Nelina's hands. She is so beautiful, so innocent and lovely, just like an angel. I give her every possible care without asking for anything in return. She also liked me very much, and although there was no baptism ceremony, she already regarded me as her godfather."
In several principalities near the Rhine City, the godfather is also regarded as the godfather, similar to the master.
Lango said angrily: "The reason why Nelina gave her a sleeping potion is because I discovered that Linda has a transcendent power. She cannot control this powerful power. Once she is in an angry or painful mood, , will summon all kinds of incredible creatures. Some creatures will choose to protect her, some will try to bewitch her, and some will harm the people around her. Nelina fixed her room to keep her in the best possible situation. In a calm state of mind, I also gave her the cross that I have carried with me for many years, so that when she is confused and out of control, she can take one more look at the cross and think of me."
Speaking of which.
Lango's anger gradually turned into pain.
"After our many years of experiments, Nelina's singing can effectively relieve Linda's anxiety, and my cross can help Linda regain stability after an emotional breakdown. Later, I made Nelina's singing into a record , was given to Linda, I think in Linda’s heart, I am her real father.”
Although this sentence was brief, Chen Mo was shocked.
He almost ignored an important clue, the white quality light cross!
This is not an ordinary exorcism item at all, but Linda's psychological sustenance, her imagination that her father can protect her, and her desire for all the good things about her father.
She had never enjoyed her father's care for her children.
The director of the nursing home also recorded this clue in his notebook, but he ignored it at the time.
Linda mentioned at that time that it would take Uncle Lango's cross to save everything, but she was reprimanded by the dean just because Linda called Uncle Lango.
Because in everyone's heart, Lange is the bad guy who caused her family to be destroyed.
With tears streaming in his eyes, Lange looked at Chen Mo and mocked: "I admit that I have violated the commandments and am no longer worthy of being a devout believer, but you know what Werther did after discovering our adultery. ?"
"Isn't he going to kill you?"
Faced with Chen Mo's confused rhetorical question, Lange showed sarcasm and ridicule.
"That was three years later. In fact, Werther knew about our affairs as early as three years ago. At that time, he proposed that I pay one hundred and twenty silver coins per month, and he would turn a blind eye to it. Just close one eye, otherwise do you think he would tolerate me giving Linda a gramophone?"
Chen Mo felt that his outlook on life had been refreshed.
Not only Chen Mo, but everyone else looked at Lange with shocked expressions.
"Then why did you..."
"It's Nelina who doesn't want to continue like this. She's fed up with Werther's hypocrisy, using her and Linda as tools to make money, dragging me down. She wants to formally file for divorce from Werther, and then all these things will happen, Werther He also wanted to kill Linda, but he was killed by Linda!”
Chen Mo's eyes kept flashing. Combined with Lange's words, he could completely confirm that Lange's words should be true.
this matter……
Look at the development of things from Linda's perspective!
She has extraordinary talents, but lives in a hypocritical world.
She is the happy child that everyone envies, but in reality she is a canary in a birdcage.
Her father, Werther, usually ignored her. He would come back once a month and hire a painter to paint for her. He would also often beat and scold her mother. She had lived in fear of domestic violence since she was a child and was timid and careful to follow Werther's wishes. , accomplished everything, just hoping that Werther would stop showing his violent side.
The beautiful mother was a housewife with no financial resources. All her property was taken away by Werther. The mental pain and physical fatigue caused her to suffer from severe postpartum depression. She wanted to commit suicide many times. , always like humming that nursery rhyme.
Uncle Lango cared for him meticulously, always doing everything possible to protect himself, and told himself many stories about the outside world. He was humble and worked hard. Linda, who had not had a father since she was a child, finally felt her father's love in him. Feel.
Passers-by would always hear the singing from the gramophone in Linda's room, and coupled with Linda's various oil paintings in the hall, everyone thought she was an extremely happy girl. Only Count Orff of the Rhine City knew , all this is just Werther's disguise.
"If all this is true, Count Orff will not make things difficult for you."
"Yeah, he never felt sorry for me!"
After seeing Lange's firm eyes, Chen Mo took a deep breath.
His eyes signaled Uncle Apocalypse to pull him out of the pit, and then waved for everyone to go in the direction of the temporary camp.
"Linda is so pathetic."
Tiantian has repeated this sentence countless times.
Uncle Apocalypse was holding a cigar in his mouth, turning his back and looking into the distance. He didn't like this feeling very much.
This reminded Chen Mo of the story about King Qi giving up his cow.
The king was sitting in the hall, and a morning cow passed by the hall. The king saw it and said, "Where is the cow?"
He said to him, "I will challenge the bell."
The king said: "Give it up, I can't bear to see it look down upon you. If you are innocent, you will die."
He said to him: "How about abolishing Zhongyu?"
The king said: "How can we abolish it in order to nourish it?"
The allusion describes the emperor's chivalrous compassion for his subjects.
By analogy, it was only when the tour group became stronger and richer in supplies, and was influenced by Chen Mo's values, that he developed compassion.
This is undoubtedly a luxury for those affected by natural disasters.
But from another perspective, it is a symbol of the pursuit of freedom.
When the emperor is angry, his corpse floats thousands of miles away. When the emperor grants amnesty, the whole world celebrates. This is power and freedom.
Chen Mo looked at Xiying: "Do you have any solution?"
"Perhaps, the only solution is for me to transform myself into a burning creature first, and use half of my life to replace Linda's seal, so that we can combine into a new life and become each other's clones."
Chen Mo knew a little bit about Xiying's ability to transform into burning creatures. This was also the source of her development of the Ashes Mystery Sealing Technique.
But Chen Mo's inner rationality did not agree with Xue Ying's doing this.
She called "each other's clones", and although Chen Mo felt it was strange after getting to know it a little bit, it also seemed to be risky. However, although Chen Mo was her captain, he had no right to interfere with her final choice.
Half a day later.
Near the town of Winnie, the tour group encountered an exorcism team sent by Count Orff.
Amidst the intense vigilance of this team of more than ten people, Chen Mo handed over Lango, whose hands and feet were bound and his mouth was gagged.
"If what you say is true, Count Orff will naturally let you go. If what you say is false, then you will die!"
Lango made a "woohoo" sound.
Chen Mo continued: "We are natural disaster victims from the real world of disasters. We have already obtained definite clues. Linda was bewitched by a blood moon creature called the Whirlpool Wolf in the Wolf Valley. It is a subordinate of the Chaos Corrosion Demon King. The blood moon era is coming, and your uncle will soon bring the news. Those powerful blood moon creatures will not let Linda go. If you really want to help Linda, come to Wolf Valley the day after tomorrow. , Linda will follow us out of here forever and start a new life."
For people who live in the world of appearances.
There is no difference between the Elf World, the Blood Moon World, and the Disaster World. They are all foreign worlds.
But for other worlds, including elves, monsters, and blood moon creatures, the world of appearances, the world of elves, and the blood moon world exist as one.
The world of appearances is the fuel, the world of spirits is the fire.
The blood moon world is the sublimation of the world after it boils.
After bidding farewell to the exorcism team, the tour team took Madi and continued towards the temporary camp.
"At least we already know that Linda is a kind person. She has never thought of murdering other people, and she loves her mother and Uncle Lange deeply. She can effectively soothe her with gramophone music and sleeping potions prepared by her mother. Her emotions, when she goes into extreme states, can be reversed with that cross of light.”
Chen Mo analyzed calmly.
"So we have a total of five entry points now, nursery rhymes, sleeping potion, cross of light, friend Madi, and Uncle Rango."
"Now I finally understand what Tiantian said before."
What the Apocalypse was referring to was Chen Mo's mission analysis at the beginning of the mission.
The uncle blew out the smoke in his chest and sighed in a low voice: "It's great to have a captain who is good at insight and analysis."
