"I think I should leave."
The banquet continues.
The music flows on the dance floor.
But Chen Senran put down his wine glass and prepared to leave.
He was a little tired, and everything that happened tonight was a little beyond his expectations. He needed to go back and sort out his mood and think about the changes that followed.
"Be careful on the way." Svein raised his cup and signaled goodbye.
"Be careful too." Chen Senran nodded and left the venue without most people paying attention.
But, only most people.
In fact, just as he stepped out of the Hall of Glory with one foot.
Those who should pay attention to him have already seen it.
Almost at that moment.
Jerico, who had escaped from the hall and temporarily let go of the prey tonight, stood on the balcony covered by darkness, looked at Chen Senran, who was getting on the carriage below, and suddenly said to the boundless darkness: "The opportunity is here, go and explore his bottom."
"You are not qualified to command me." In the darkness, a mechanical hoarse voice continued.
As the sound appeared, there was a little extreme blue light that looked like a prison.
"Okay, forgive me for being disrespectful. My respected senior, can you please follow him and explore his reality? His performance today is really suspicious." Jerrico said respectfully, but he did not have much respect in his tone.
"Hmph—" No sounds sounded in the darkness. After a cold and arrogant groan, the ultimate blue light disappeared immediately.
"Hmph—" Seeing the people in the dark go away, Jericho also snorted heavily, with a strong disdain.
"A shameless living dead man."
This is what he said last.
at the same time.
downstairs.
Annie, who had been staring at Chen Senran, seemed to notice something. After sneering, she said to the darkness: "Someone is eyeing him, you can go and have a look."
No one answered in the darkness. Only a vague laughter sounded.
It's like a joke before a clown in a circus performs.
"It's interesting, you can go and have a look." Dr. Victor, who had already built himself into a Hex technology body and would not feel a trace of pleasure at all. He took a sip of the wine and said to the darkness.
"Let's go too." Jiawen IV, who was smiling and whispering with a noble lady, suddenly said to the air.
In addition to these major forces, key figures from other forces also disappeared from the venue at the same moment.
For example, the King of Barbarians Tedamir, Ice Shooter Ashe, Picheng Policewoman Kaitlin, Frost Queen Lisandrao, Winter Wrath Sejuanni, and...
The most terrifying, Death Singer, Karthas.
The forces that did not go were also thinking about the darkness outside.
Everyone in the audience was the number one enemy of the blind Jack. Svein held the wine glass and chose the sweets on the long black rock table as if nothing had happened. While picking, he said to himself: "What a hearty dinner."
—————————————————————
It is actually not far from the Hall of Glory to Chen Senran's residence. Even if you walk, you can only reach it in less than half a magic time.
But in order to demonstrate the specifications of the parliament, and the advanced treatment that a distinguished guest should have.
There is still a carriage that specializes in picking up and dropping off Chen Senran.
This is a carriage that is extremely exquisite. The wide carriage is enough to sit down. It is a gentle seat cushion, a rune magic array that does not bump, and a full carriage collection and wine. There is also a coachman with excellent horse control skills.
It really makes people feel a little unwilling to get off the bus.
The only disadvantage may be that the distance is too short and whether there is anyone to accompany you.
Today Graves finally went out to find the whereabouts of the Card Master. Chen Senran told him that he could find some clues in the Summoner Tavern.
So he failed to go to the banquet with Chen Senran, and Li Qing was a monk who didn't like the excitement, and Draven was even more unable to see anyone.
He has only one person.
Chen Senran leaned comfortably in the carriage, picked a book on the bookshelf full of half and started reading it.
The journey is not long, maybe it will end by looking at the beginning.
He casually opened this poetic essay called "Midnight Revelation", and its first paragraph reads:
"When the carriage galloped in the boundless darkness, suddenly..."
suddenly.
The carriage stopped.
No signs.
In a place that is definitely not Chen Senran's residence.
Chen Senran sighed slightly without surprise and continued to flip through the prose in his hand.
The dark night is lonely.
The driver outside the car didn't know where he went. In the thick dark night, there was only a slight sound of page turning in the carriage where a dim magic lamp was lit. Chen Senran took off a bottle of aged red wine from the wine cabinet next to him while flipping.
He skillfully poured himself a cup. He still had time to read the content under the light as the book stopped: "When the carriage stopped, the monsters in the four fields rushed towards the direction of the light. They wanted light, like a group of thirsty moths."
They want light.
them.
them!!!
They in the dark night.
All of them came to Chen Sen.
Staying quietly in the darkness, I did not pounce on the light at the first time.
Because they discovered them too.
No one wants to do it right away, everyone is waiting for a cannon fodder.
Let’s first try how strong that ball of light is, and whether it will directly burn the moth that pounces on you to ashes.
Everyone thinks this way, so that everyone suppresses their own breathing and wants to avoid other people's perceptions.
The situation suddenly became strange.
Silence, extreme silence.
Only Chen Senran was flipping through books in the car, and he was neither too fast nor too slow, neither afraid nor afraid.
He even occasionally sips of red wine.
It's so leisurely that it's like a midnight outing, rather than experiencing a dangerous siege.
"They are stumbled, as if they are afraid of the light, and as if they are afraid of the same kind, but the light does not burn their skin, and the same kind does not encroach on their torso. What are they afraid of, what are they afraid of?"
What are they afraid of?
"Tear--" Finally, someone in the darkness attacked the first attack, heading towards the carriage, as fierce as the wind and as fast as lightning.
It's a knife.
A good knife.
What a fast knife.
In an instant, the others seemed to be activated, followed the quick knife and rushed towards the carriage in the dark.
For a moment, the sound of wind breaking everywhere in the dark night.
"Here, they are finally here, but are they as terrible as demons or as fragile as moths?" (To be continued...)
ps: The second update.
Bad condition.
