Circle of Inevitability

Chapter 217: Escape

Views:

The branches and vines that had been chasing Lumian were instantly retracted, and the javelin-like trunk fell again.

The context is lost after the root.

Lumian exhaled, raised his body while running, and looked up.

He just happened to see Suzanne Matisse being burned to ashes along with the plant ball surrounding her, and saw a tree trunk that did not belong to the new growth break off due to the burning and fall not far away.

Finished! Lumian was relieved and no longer tried to hold on, falling to the ground.

The red flames burning him went out, revealing his charred body that was almost unrecognizable.

Lumian struggled to sit up, leaning against the wall of the Golden Rooster Inn, which had many vines and branches left. Like a tramp abandoned by the world, he watched with a little mockery as the "Shadow Tree" suddenly sank further down, sinking deeper and deeper.

He also saw that the vines and branches had all retracted into the main trunk.

The suspended people were seen breaking free from their restraints and falling to the ground from some high or low positions.

Among the first dozen or so people whose essence was drained, three or four were suspended in the air nearly three meters high.

They were already very weak, and after falling so hard, they all lost half their lives and passed out on the spot. Maybe they could be saved, or maybe they couldn't.

Hundreds of people who were suspended in a lower position and had not yet absorbed too much energy suffered more or less injuries, but none of them affected their lives, or even their efforts to get up in a hurry and rush to the edge of the wilderness.

Gabriel's face turned pale and his hands and feet were bruised. His first reaction was not to escape, but to bend down and pick up the "Light Chasers" script scattered on the ground.

The eloping couple who were hung together kept cursing each other for being a burden while supporting each other. With their legs and feet slightly inconvenienced due to the fall, they followed the crowd and swarmed into the distance.

Pavard Nissen, the owner of the underground bar, was not injured except for being weak. He ran with the draft he had just drawn...

Lumian, his body burnt, sat on the street, with his back against the Golden Rooster Inn, which was very close to the Shadow Tree. He leaned his head against the wall, smiling slightly, and watched the vendors, pedestrians, and tenants of cheap apartments flee to the edge of the wilderness.

Inside the "Shadow Tree", "Ms. Moon" saw that many angels and saints had been involved in the battle, and her side was becoming increasingly exhausted with the successive reinforcements from the two major churches and the Eighth Bureau. She suddenly felt like retreating.

If this continues, the two major churches may ask God to come in different ways!

"Ms. Yue" quickly made up her mind.

Having been deprived of several abilities and trapped in various "prohibitions", she opened her mouth while pressing the bulge on her abdomen.

An extremely shrill scream erupted in this alien space, and the "Shadow Tree" with a trunk nearly two meters high on the ground changed instantly.

In the past scenes on different branches and barks, which were shrouded in a thin mist, all the figures formed by different desires and now completely dead came back to life, except for Emperor Roselle.

There are many demigods among them, who walked out of their respective "history" and "resurrection" with numb and indifferent expressions and a cold and gloomy aura!

"Ms. Moon" made use of the special power of the "divine fetus" and the "Shadow Tree" in her belly, allowing the latter's desires accumulated for more than a thousand years to be temporarily resurrected into their original appearance.

Although this cannot last long, and the strength of the resurrected will be obviously not as good as before, but in just a few seconds, the addition of a large number of demigods to help fight can still effectively affect the situation and bring extreme chaos.

It was precisely because of the "divine fetus" that could provide help at the critical moment that "Ms. Moon" dared to follow in here and participate in this melee. Otherwise, she had only promised to provide cover and interception, and she would have given up on the people of the "Supreme Bliss Society" and left this neighborhood on her own.

Silently, those resurrected phantoms quickly melted away under the scorching sun, and "Ms. Moon" seized this opportunity to take back the damaged, less powerful part of the other side world, merged with it, and disappeared on the spot.

Market Avenue, in the khaki four-story building where the members of Congress reside.

The mixed-race Yinmlei did not directly question Janna about the assassin, but asked two agents from the Seventh Bureau to do simple disinfection and bandaging for Janna to stop the bleeding. He showed an attitude that the criminal must not be seriously injured or killed in order to get more clues. Meanwhile, Vatouthe, Antoine and other agents observed and questioned other people who participated in the banquet one by one, including Cachengdra, Rhone and other members of G. Artois' team.

[Given the general environment,

Boom!

There was another tremor underground, and people near the windows saw that Luan Street, Nightingale Street and White Coat Street each had a corner exposed, with flashes of light from time to time, and many clergymen wearing white robes inlaid with gold thread and holding various machines were approaching around.

This slowed down the interrogation of Yinmlei, Valentine and others. After a while, Angouleme de Francois, wearing a coat with gold buttons, walked into the banquet hall with the gray-white humanoid mechanical creation, several other team members and a large number of police officers.

After listening to Yinmlei’s report, he looked around, glanced at Janna, and then said to Travis Everett: “Bring all the people who attended the banquet to the headquarters and question them separately.

"The assassin will stay here, and we will be responsible for tracking him down. Um... the members of Mr. Congressman's team will also stay here, as there are some situations that we need to understand."

Everett did not raise any objections and organized the police officers to take the people who were both frightened and watching the excitement away from the ochre building where the congressman's office was located.

When the hall became empty, Angouleme instructed the two agents of the Seventh Bureau standing next to Janna: "Take the assassin to the rest room. Don't let her hear our conversation, or she will use it to conceal part of the truth."

After watching Janna being taken into the rest room facing the street behind, Angouleme walked in front of Cassandra, Rona and others and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, there are some situations that we must understand.

At this point, he smiled and said, "By the way, the congressman is dead. According to the law, he immediately lost his seat." In other words, you are no longer a member of the congressman's team and no longer enjoy the necessary exemptions. "So, let's get it notarized first before communicating.

After hearing Angouleme's words, the expressions of Cassandra and others changed at the same time.

In the lounge, after assassinating Hugues Artois, Janna, whose mind was calm, heard a violent noise coming from the direction of the hall.

One of the two Seventh Bureau agents guarding her with guns ran to the door to see what was going on.

Janna's heart skipped a beat when she found that there was only one security guard left by her side, and suddenly she had an idea.

Her expression suddenly changed, and she looked behind the guard with surprise and fear.

Although the agent had received rigorous training, it was precisely because of this that he knew some things that ordinary people did not know. Today, an unusual case occurred in the chaotic street area, and the congressman was assassinated. Now, there was a battle in the hall that was suspected to involve supernatural powers. How could he not worry that the lounge would be affected and that something might happen behind him

He subconsciously wanted to turn around, but he became alert just halfway through.

But for Jana, that was enough.

She had been handcuffed for a long time, so she clenched her fists and smashed them hard on the agent's shoulders and neck, causing him to fall to the ground and the pistol to slip out of her control.

Without waiting for the agent at the door to react, Janna put her hands on the windowsill, jumped up, broke through the glass, and landed like a feather in the alley behind.

Hugging the man tightly, she endured the pain from the gunshot wound, hid in the shadow of the corner, and quickly left the khaki building.

"Ms. Moon" changed directions repeatedly and used several abilities before finally walking out of the "other world".

At this time, she had fled to the Erato district northwest of Trier. In front of her was a magnificent building with several spires and a lot of gold paint.

"Ms. Yue" carefully checked the surrounding situation again and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

want

It's not that the evil tree's deeper penetration into Trier in the Quaternary Epoch is good for the Great Mother. In fact, she is unwilling to participate in the actions of the Blissful Society and does not want to expose herself. You know, those who control their desires are often controlled by their desires, and the possibility of failure is not low.

The next second, "Ms. Moon" entered the beige building from the side.

A few hundred meters away, a large golden retriever was squatting quietly next to a woman in a green dress.

They silently watched every move of "Ms. Moon" and looked at the magnificent building with many buildings, their expressions were a little solemn.

That is the Monastery of the Sacred Heart, the Monastery of the Sacred Heart of the Church of the Eternal Sun.

In the wilderness that began to collapse but did not affect the buildings of Luan Street, Nightingale Street, and White Coat Street, Lumian saw that the "Shadow Tree" had almost completely shrunk into the ground, and laughed at Thermiporos: "I'm not that unlucky, but I succeeded."

As soon as he finished speaking, Franca, who had regained her consciousness and rationality, ran over and said with a hiss, "Are you pretending to be a charred corpse?"

As she spoke, she took out the healing potion she got from the Sting Gang and planned to give Lumian half a bottle first.

Lumian’s injuries were not as serious as they looked. For most low- and mid-sequence Beyonders, burns that were fatal would only require the Arsonist to lie down for a month or two at most. And none of the injuries from fractures, explosions, and collisions would kill the Hunter immediately. As long as he could make it to tomorrow, he would recover naturally.

Considering that he might have to face the pursuit of official Beyonders after the wilderness completely disappeared, Lumian did not try to be brave and gulped down half the bottle.

Soon, he felt his body recovering rapidly.

At this time, the wilderness was about to collapse completely, and the streets returned to their original positions.

Many people have rushed in!

Franka observed the environment and said quickly, "Can we move? We need to get out of here quickly."

"good."

Lumian stood up.

He then took two steps sideways, intending to pick up the short trunk that had been burned from the "Shadow Tree" before leaving.

As Lumian grasped the trunk, he suddenly caught sight of something from the corner of his eye: a transparent creature flashed past in the depression left by the Shadow Tree after it sank back into the ground.

Lumian's eyehole suddenly enlarged, as if he couldn't believe what he was seeing and wanted to see it more clearly.

It was a lizard-like transparent shadow!

It was exactly the same "elf" he saw in his dream!

That's the kind of monster that came out of Aurora's mouth!
