Circle of Inevitability

Chapter 130: hostage

Views:

In the dark corridor illuminated only by the crimson moonlight, Charlie's voice echoed layer by layer, making people's scalps tingle.

Dreaming about Susanna and Matisse again? Lumian was shocked at first, and then he was filled with anger: Are you stupid? Since you have that dream again, go to the nearest "Eternal Sun" church to find a clergyman! I'm not your father, you have to report to me if you have a wet dream!

“Did you communicate in your dream?” Lumian was slightly surprised.

Does this mean that Susanna Mathis has not completely turned into a strange creature and still has a certain degree of intelligence? Lumian's thoughts raced, and he felt a little sad for Charlie.

If Charlie could not obtain the help of the official extraordinary people, he would most likely end up like the three female victims in the town of Ornet, indulging himself in his dreams day after day until he became too weak to die suddenly.

Wait a minute, the official Beyonders simply dealt with the subsequent problems that Charlie might encounter? Didn't they think about the possibility that Charlie was killed directly by Susanna Mathis

Lumian instantly remembered Ryan, Leah, and Valentine.

None of them, when faced with similar anomalies, would so lightly declare the end of the situation and tell the victim to go to the church for help if they encounter problems again.

Considering that the madman upstairs had encountered the ghost of Montsouris and was taken in by the clergy of the church for protection for a long time, Lumian gradually began to suspect that the official Beyonder in charge of handling Charlie's case deliberately underestimated the anomaly brought by Susanna Mathis, and let Charlie return to the hotel, telling him that the matter had been basically resolved and that he could go to the church for help if there were any subsequent problems, in order to paralyze Susanna Mathis and lure her to show up again!

Thinking of this, Lumian looked at Charlie and said calmly, "If you believe me, I will go back to my room now, lie on the bed, close my eyes, and sleep until dawn.

"Don't worry, the matter will be resolved. Lumian appears calm on the surface, but he's cursing bastards in his heart. Hurry back to the fifth floor! Calculating the time, the official Beyonders monitoring nearby should have noticed something unusual and will take action soon. What are you doing standing in front of my door now? Are you notifying them to arrest me?"

"I, I..." Charlie looked hesitant and fearful. If I do nothing, will the problem really be solved

As soon as he finished speaking, Lumian suddenly smelled the fragrance of grass and trees, a fragrance with a strange smell.

The next second, he saw green or brown vines and branches spreading over the walls, ceiling, and floor, blocking the windows and doors of other rooms.

At the staircase, a female voice that seemed to be gently touching the eardrum rang out, "Charlie, are you really going to betray me?"

Charlie turned sideways in astonishment, and his pupils suddenly enlarged.

He saw the woman who was entangled with him in the dream. Her green hair was spread out from the back of her head and fell to the floor, extending to the surrounding walls and the ceiling above, along with the vines.

The branches were connected together without the long green hair covering her. Susanna Mathis's body was completely exposed. Most of it was naked, showing the graceful curves of a woman, while a small part of it had flower buds or tree tumors, red, white, green or brown. Those bright flower buds and brown-green tree tumors kept opening and closing as Susanna Mathis spoke, and a sticky liquid with a faint fishy smell flowed out.

This twisted and disgusting scene put Charlie into a nightmare. He froze there, trembling instinctively.

"Charlie, I'm your wife."

Charlie woke up as if from a dream, and almost collapsed and shouted, "No! No! Are you stupid? Just say a few perfunctory words to calm Susanna's emotions!"

Lumian only hated himself for not being fast enough to cover Charlie's mouth.

Susanna's expression suddenly turned cold. "Then you will stay with me forever."

As he uttered these words, the fear in Charlie's eyes disappeared. An expression of obsession and love appeared on his face, and he was eager to walk towards the strange creature.

And a flower bud on Susanna Matisse's lower abdomen was wet and opened, unusually large, and did not close slowly like the other flower buds and tree tumors.

It seemed to be waiting for Charlie to arrive.

“Why don’t you look in the mirror and see how horrible and disgusting you look now? If I were Charlie, I would stare you out of my dream right from the start!” Lumian’s instinct told him that begging for mercy now would obviously be useless, so he chose to curse back, using his “provocative” ability to irritate the other party, to see if he could make Susannah “expose” her weaknesses on her own initiative.

The mere presence of this strange creature made Lumian feel excited and terrified, eager and resistant. It was as if he was caught in a vortex of desires, causing him to feel powerless and unable to resist.

This proves that the other party is much stronger than him!

Lumian cursed while thinking about ways to delay for a while. He believed that the official Beyonder would arrive soon.

"What on earth is this monster?"

"Why does she think she is Charlie's wife?"

"Wife" Lumian suddenly had an inspiration, and Susanna Mathis was angered by his words and screamed. With this scream, the vines and branches rushed towards Lumian frantically. With this scream, the fear hidden in Lumian's heart was magnified to a certain extent, and the whole person was scared to the point of almost fainting.

His legs became weak and his body began to tremble noticeably. Relying on a strong force, Lumian barely stretched out his right hand and grabbed Charlie who was trying to run towards the monster.

In his left hand, he held the evil dagger against Charlie's throat.

Such a change made Susanna Mathis a little confused and angry and asked: "What do you want to do?"

Lumian laughed viciously and said, "I forgot to tell you that my extraordinary weapon is called the Cursed Blade. If it cuts a wound and bleeds, the whole family will die due to the curse, including his wife."

"And you are Charlie's wife. Based on what happened to the madman upstairs, Lumian suspects that the Montsouris haunted house kills not only immediate family members, but also husbands or wives."

Of course, Lumian knew very well that even if he really encountered the ghost of Montsouris, it would take some time for his fate to be exchanged with the ghost of Charles Montsouris.

The attack launched by Charlie's wife Susanna Mathis will not affect the current situation at all. He is betting on Susanna.

Matisse didn't know this, and the bet was that Suzanne Matisse could see the danger lurking within the corrupted mercury.

This is a bluff!

Susanna Matisse, whose body was covered with many flower buds and tree tumors, had a frozen expression, and the vines and branches that were madly heading towards Lumian also stopped in mid-air.

Her emerald green eyes then filled with a dangerous feeling.

What Lumian saw suddenly changed. He saw the parish priest Guillaumebert, who had a hooked nose and a white robe inlaid with gold thread. The hatred that he had suppressed in his heart erupted like a volcano.

Lumian let go of Charlie and walked towards the "Guillaume Bennet" he had locked onto, but in front of him was only Susanna Mathis.

At this time, Charlie, with a face full of obsession and love, saw Lumien walking towards his "wife" with a dagger, and hurriedly reached out to grab the evil man, shouting "Don't hurt her!" Lumien suddenly woke up and found that Guillaume Bene had turned into flower buds and tree tumors that opened one after another. Susanna Matisse was manipulated by her emotions. Lumien was shocked and forced his body to twist, and once again grabbed Charlie, and pressed the corrupted mercury against his throat.

Susanna Mathis did not hide her disappointment. She hesitated for two seconds and opened her rosy lips.

Suddenly, the strange creature stopped and looked solemnly at the wall of the Golden Rooster Hotel close to the chaotic street.

The next second, her long green hair quickly retracted, and the vines and branches instantly disintegrated and disappeared.

After saying that, Lumian pushed Charlie, went back to his room, closed the wooden door, lay on the bed and pretended to be asleep, behaving like the other tenants.

As Susanna left, the obsession in Charlie's eyes faded, and when Lumian shook him violently, he finally regained his sanity. In an emergency, he didn't understand anything and could only follow Charles' instructions. He trotted to the stairs leading to the ground floor, lay down, closed his eyes, and seemed to be in a coma.

Almost at the same time, the ink spray in the inner courtyard of Charlie and Lumian's vision was dyed red, just like the sun rising early and bringing daylight.

A few minutes later, golden moss that was both solid and seemed like condensed light was inserted into the ground of the chaotic street.

The tip of its sword was pierced by a rapidly twisting, thick, green vine.

"Is it resolved?" A young man with the Sun Sacred Symbol on his chest asked the man holding the sword.

He was a rugged man with blond hair, golden eyebrows, and a golden beard, wearing a brown coat with two rows of gold buttons.

He exhaled and said, "It's solved this time, but if we can't find the place where this evil spirit was born, it won't be long before she will re-condense there."
