Chapter 185: Ogierd, I'm here with your wife to kill you



When Ogierd was flipping through the book, Kaiyan and others gathered around and read the contents with a desire for knowledge. Reso even quietly recited the spell that Ogierd had just recited.

A huge fire broke out in the house, and at first everyone didn't pay much attention to it, thinking it was just an illusion. But then thick fog filled their mouths and noses, and they realized that the fire was real!

"Put out the fire!" Reso shouted, "Use the seal!"

A huge amount of mental power poured out from the hands of the five demon hunters, setting off a violent storm in the room. The seemingly erratic flames ignored the demon hunters' seals and were still burning.

"What's going on?"

"I understand. This is Alice's dream. The flames are part of her dream, but we are not. So we can't interfere with these fires!"

"If the flames are a dream, then why can they disturb us?" Kolgrim pulled up his mask to ease his breathing difficulties. "Is this magic?"

Seeing that he could not put out the fire, Kaiyan used the [Alder Seal] to blast towards the door in an attempt to escape. However, he saw the wall ripple like water. Kaiyan's seal was like a breeze blowing across the lake, causing only a few ripples.

The wall in front of them had actually turned into an illusion that no one could step into.

Kaiyan's eyes widened: "This is very magical!"

"There's something more magical." Lann took off Kaiyan's clothes and pointed to a painting on the wall.

The witcher looked closely and saw another landscape painting of Everec Manor.

"This painting...is it exactly the same as when I came in from outside?"

"Right." Lan nodded, "So follow me."

Without waiting for others to react, Lan rushed forward. His left hand touched the canvas, and then a vortex-like suction force wrapped around his whole body, swallowing him into the painting in an instant.

A dizziness far more intense than before instantly invaded all of Lan's senses, but before he could recover, another wave of biting chill swept over him.

When I looked up, I saw a snowstorm in front of me!

The cold wind mixed with snowflakes made his exposed skin feel like it was cut by a knife. Lan raised his hand and put a layer of [Quen Seal] on himself, which relieved the pain a little.

"This scene is like the Wild Hunt is coming!"

Lan En complained loudly, and when he turned around he heard a series of "thumps", and all the people from the Snake Sect and Kaiyan fell to the ground one after another.

"First there was fire, then there was a blizzard, so what on earth was this mistress dreaming about?"

The newly arrived demon hunters were quickly taught a lesson by the weather, and they all learned to cast hand seals like Lann. However, their [Quinn] was obviously not as good as Lann's, and it turned into pieces in a few breaths in the blizzard.

It turned out that Kaiyan opened a circular protective shield to cover the surrounding Snake Faction companions, but the protective shield was extremely small, so the four Snake Faction demon hunters almost hugged each other with their chests pressed against their backs to barely cover them.

"What kind of seal is this?"

"Quinn, this is the only reward from those decades of living in a muddle. I don't know what principle caused it to become like this." Kaiyan shouted to the people of the Snake Sect, "Reso, can you make yourself smaller? You are taking up the space of two people!"

"The environment of the dream changes with Alice's mood. Such a drastic reaction means that we are close to her!" Lane shouted to everyone, and the blizzard blurred his voice.

He then pointed ahead and said, "There's a house over there, and it's already solid. That's where the next memory is. Let's go in and hide from the snow!"

The paintings in Ogierd's study teleported the group back to the manor's garden, leaving them completely exposed to the snowstorm. At this moment, the road leading back to the main body of the manor had become solid, obviously guiding them to the next memory location.

Kaiyan was holding up the shield and couldn't move, so Reso picked him up and ran like a beam.

Rushing into the side room of the manor, the door finally blocked out the blizzard, and warmth and light greeted us.

Kaiyan jumped down nimbly from Reso's shoulder, glared at the cold-faced bald man with dissatisfaction, and observed the memory scene in the room with everyone else.

There were three people in the room. In addition to Alice and Ogierd, Alice's father who had appeared in the restaurant before was also here. He was showing something to Ogierd in front of him, but his hands were empty.

Kolgrim thought for a moment, "What is the old man holding? This time we must find what he has in his hand."

Oaks laughed and said, "You call him 'old man', but you may be older than him."

Alice hid behind her father, and in front of them was Olgierd, sitting rudely at the table, his hand clenched where there should be a wine glass.

At this point, Ogierd looked very similar to what Lann and the others had seen: a fierce complexion, a rough temperament, and many hideous and ferocious scars on the sides of his head.

Lann found a glass full of vodka and put it into Ogierd's hand, while Reso found a marriage contract on the ground that was exactly what Alice's father wanted to show.

After the two items found their respective owners, the three memory reflections in front of them moved again, showing everyone the scene at that time -

All the candles in the house were lit and the fireplace was filled with firewood, but the surging heat could not bring any warmth to the three people in the house.

Ogierd raised his head and drank the liquor. There were seven or eight empty bottles on the table behind him. He didn't care at all how rude his behavior was.

Alice's father didn't care about this, or rather, he was happy to see Olgierd showing this face in front of his daughter. For him, everything was about to end, and the character of the person in front of him would soon have nothing to do with him.

The old man read the contract in his hand aloud: "...In addition, both families must treat Alice with respect, listen to her advice and requests, and..."

Olgierd staggered against the table. He had obviously drunk a lot of wine, but he was not drunk at all. His face was full of impatience.

"Just get to the point, 'Dad'. I'm running out of patience."

Alice looked at the man in front of her sadly. She couldn't help but cover her mouth and turned away, as if she didn't want to see the next scene.

The old man gave Olgierd a cold look. "I am happy to do so."

"At Ellie's request, I declare this marriage - over!"

The old man put away the contract in his hand and blocked Ogierd's view of his daughter. "You are ignorant and shameless, and you almost killed Alice. You deserve this!"

Olgierd turned a deaf ear to his father-in-law's accusations. He didn't care what other people said. He just looked at his wife:

"You swore to stay with me until death do us part."

There was not much sadness in his tone, but rather accusations and anger towards his wife for breaking the contract and violating her oath.

Alice was still dressed in the familiar way, a simple black dress and dark eyeshadow. She seemed to have cried, so there were some irregular halos on her eyeshadow.

"I kept my promise, but the Olgierd I knew is no longer here."

"It's not easy to break your promise, believe me." Olgierd stood up suddenly and shouted to his wife, "I won't let you leave. You must stay here and never leave!"

"That's enough!" Alice's father was extremely angry. "You have no right to order my daughter around."

The old man of noble birth was annoyed by Ogierd's unreasonable behavior. He had never taken a liking to this impoverished nobleman.

But what happened next was beyond his expectations. Olgierd was even angrier than Alice's father, and he grabbed the old man by the collar and threw him out like a sack.

With a loud bang, the old man's head hit the marble column hard, accompanied by a crisp sound of bone cracking. Alice's father's eyes suddenly widened, and then his expression froze, and he slowly slid to the ground without a sound.

"Father!"

The development of the matter was beyond Alice's expectations. She collapsed to the ground, covering her face and crying.

Olgierd poured another glass of wine into his mouth and shouted: "Come, drag this body out and feed him to the wild beasts!"

The love story has gradually become darker at this point, and the couple in the house are very different from the happy appearance they had when Lan and his friends first entered the dream world in the painting.

Following the call of Ogierd in the memory phantom, a thick black fog spread out not far away, and soon formed the shape of three monsters on all fours.

"These shadows... look like ghouls."

Neither the zombies nor the dark shadow monsters before them could withstand the swords of the six demon hunters, and they were chopped into pieces in just a few breaths.

Then, black fog suddenly condensed five steps away from everyone. Before they could take a alert posture, the black cat and the black dog appeared.

Kaiyan raised his chin and said, "You have been missing for a while."

黑猫对于猫派猎魔人的话置若罔闻,只是看着眼前已经停下动作又变成雕塑的记忆幻影:“到这里的时候,欧吉尔德就差不多已经失去了人类的自我。”

黑狗应和道:“他唯一拥有的就只有对自己妻子的爱了。”

黑猫却第一次反驳黑狗:“不对,他只是记得还要继续爱他的妻子而已,心中其实早已没有了真正的‘爱’。”

猎魔人们摇摇头,哪怕他们早就见多识广,这种程度的婚变大戏也让他们大开眼界。

眼前的幻影道路凝实。顺着楼梯上楼,众人又来到了一处回忆倒影,按照黑猫和黑狗的说法,这是最后的一处回忆倒影了。

这处倒影的时间线已经很接近现在了,众人在房间里面甚至又见到了在庄园门口被他们砍死的看门人。

黑猫说道:“这是爱丽丝和欧吉尔德的最后一次对话,当时我们就在现场。”

黑狗点头:“我们也是回忆的一部分。”

黑猫和黑狗虚化身体,然后凝聚在爱丽丝的脚下,这就是它们当时所处的位置。

眼前似乎是一个用餐的场景,爱丽丝坐在餐桌边上,桌子上面只有她一个人的餐具。不远处是守门人,它做出双手捧着什么东西的样子,手中却空无一物。

众人很快在房间里面找到三个碗,其中一个大小正好放在守门的手上,另外的两个被黑猫和黑狗指引着放在了它们的面前。

“你们用这个碗吃东西?”凯亚恩调笑道,“我以为你们是异界的生物,而不是用这种正常猫狗的方式来进食。”

按照这两个碗摆放的位置,黑猫和黑狗得要像它们身体所展示出来的形象一样,在主人的餐桌边弯腰低头舔食碗中的食物,这显然与他们“异界恶魔”的真实形象大相径庭。

“当然不!”黑猫的语气中第一次出现了情绪波动,它嫌弃地看了一眼自己的碗与不远处的看门人,“我们不是动物!只是看门人总是多事,会把碗摆出来,以此让用餐过程更加有‘氛围’。”

众人了然地点头。回想起自己等人刚进庄园时候热火朝天地围殴看门人,而黑猫和黑狗就在不远处围观的场景。

他们突然理解了。

而在这三个碗摆好之后,眼前的幻影也再次动了起来——

……

“你又召唤了新的怪物了?拜托你停止吧,有这两个家伙就已经足够让我厌烦了。”

爱丽丝说着抱怨的话,但是语气却没有一丝起伏,好似被冰冻的湖面。她的声音轻灵而幽静,让人想到死去的百灵,再看不见当初在花园喷泉边说出“我有你就够了”的欢喜模样。

面对妻子的责怪,欧吉尔德转头看向沉默的看门人,看门人的手上捧着为爱丽丝准备的晚餐:黄油面包、陶森特葡萄酒、庄园果树结出的水果,一小块烤肉,简单却丰富。

“猫和狗是陪伴你的,而看门人负责保护你、管理屋子,无论发生什么事情它都不会离开。”

曾经的爱丽丝一边画画一边给欧吉尔德描绘出未来的景象,其中就包括想要养一只猫和一只狗。现在欧吉尔德满足了妻子的愿望。

但这一切只让爱丽丝更觉悲伤:“我之前一直想知道你的想法,因为我觉得我能够帮上你的忙……”

她站起身,缓步靠近曾经的丈夫,看着他的眼睛:“但是我现在一点也不在乎你在想什么了,也不在乎你到底有什么感受。”

欧吉尔德的脸毫无波澜,映照着妻子的眼睛宛若一颗冰冷的玻璃球,不见一丝情绪:

“我……什么感受都没有。”

爱丽丝低下头:“我也不知道自己现在是不是还恨你了……你走吧,欧吉尔德,离开我的视线,再也不要回来。”

这就是爱丽丝对欧吉尔德说的最后一句话了。

欧吉尔德深深看了妻子一眼,转身离去,这幅回忆的场景就定格在了这一刻。

……

“欧吉尔德·伊佛瑞克留下我们来陪伴女主人。”黑狗看着眼前的场景说道,“但是他却没意识到我们永远无法取代他。”

黑猫跳上桌子,看着爱丽丝的记忆倒影:“因此现在她回忆的每个场景里面都有欧吉尔德的影子。”

黑猫和黑狗一起回头看了兰恩一行人一眼,身影雾化,随后又在不远处的一扇门边凝聚。

“往这里来吧,我们的旅途就快到终点了。这里有着爱丽丝最大的恐惧。”

穿过房门和一小段走廊,眼前出现的是这栋楼的大厅,这里灯火通明,所有摆放着的蜡烛无一遗漏地被点燃。壁炉熊熊燃烧,却反而给众人带来一丝凉意。

大厅的正中间有一张小圆桌,兰恩拿起来一看,发现桌子上面是两封欧吉尔德写给爱丽丝的信:

其中一封似乎是两人结婚以前的情书:

【我的爱人:

我无时不刻地想念着你,想我们在炼金旅店喝酒喝到天明,你用地板上的木屑画出我们梦想中的屋子;想我们坐在码头上用脚戏水,你还唱着搞笑的歪歌,让我笑个不停;我亲吻着徽章、抱着你的画像睡着了,这样睁开眼睛依然能看到你,仿佛你就在我的身边。

请别放弃,距离你和欧菲尔人的婚礼还有一周的时间,我会想出办法的。或许我那时候已经凑齐钱还清债务,亦或者我的眼泪会让你父亲心软,也可能天神会听到我们的祷告降下奇迹。如果天神没听到,或许恶魔会响应。

如果没有其他办法,我会打破神庙的窗户,把你从婚礼上劫走。我们一起逃到遥远的国度,逃到世界的边缘,没人能找得到我们。

我向天发誓:我们一定能永远在一起。

我爱你!

——你的欧。】

另一封则是欧吉尔德离开庄园的时候留下的信件:

【爱丽丝:

我真希望我能够像是运用武器一样熟练地运用语言,尤其是现在,我的心已经变成了冰冷的窟窿。

我看到你看我的眼神,也见证了你凋零的过程。我帮不了你,但是我相信我可以减少对你的伤害。

这封信和这朵玫瑰是我的告别,希望你今后的记忆中会只记得我们曾经美好的时光。

——欧吉尔德。】

不大的两张纸,相同的字迹,展现出来的却是令人唏嘘的对比。

就在猎魔人们阅读这两封信的时候,房间内的烛火渐渐开始熄灭,黑暗之中有什么东西开始潜行流窜。

在场的众人都是耳聪目明之辈,一心二用是基础,哪怕阅读信件也不会忽略掉周围的动静。正当他们抬头想要查看情况的时候,屋内的火焰却突然一起熄灭。

那最后的一丝亮光为众人勾勒出了一个熟悉的轮廓。

紧接着,黑暗笼罩。

“轰——”

兰恩根据记忆中的位置,朝着壁炉打出一记【伊格尼法印】,重新为房间填补了一点亮光。

房间里面被火焰照出了十二个身影。

是的,十二个。除了兰恩一行人外,屋内还多了另外六个肢体扭曲的怪物。

它们都带着给死刑犯用肮脏的粗布头套,上面血迹斑斑;身上绑缚着麻绳,深深勒进肉里;最让人瞩目的是它们每个人的身上都插着一柄兰恩颇为眼熟的弯刀,或是当胸穿过,或是卡在脖子上。换成正常人,绝对不可能以这样的伤势活着。

这六个怪物勉强有着人类的肢体,但是却扭曲蹒跚,有两个还在用脚踝着地走路,黑暗了这么久都不见它们靠近猎魔人;在感受到房间突然亮堂起来之后,它们纷纷摘下来头上血迹斑斑的头套,露出一张双目无声的狰狞面孔。

宛若丧尸。

是欧吉尔德!

“爱丽丝最大的噩梦——这就是欧吉尔德现在在爱丽丝心中的形象吗?”

在前世的游戏中,这就是最后一关了。而眼前的这些敌人也是兰恩将猎魔人们带过来的最主要原因。

这六个欧吉尔德的噩梦倒影将众人团团围住,但是一次却只会出动一个,另外五个则好像雕像一般立在原地。其他的噩梦倒影只有遇到以下两种情况的一种才会动起来:一是上一个倒影被杀死,下一个才会接力一样出击;二是被人攻击,出于反击的情况它们也会从定身的状态下脱离。

这个设定看上去似乎可以悠闲地把它们一个一个砍死,但是这些噩梦倒影还有另外一个机制:死去的倒影会把力量分给尚在的倒影。

也就是说——这些噩梦倒影是会越杀越强的!当杀到最后一个噩梦倒影的时候,刀剑甚至都很难破防!

若是单人闯关,或许不得不老老实实地像是打天梯一样被动地不断面对越来越强的敌人,但是兰恩带着猎魔人们来到这里就是为了避免这种情况发生。

六个猎魔人,正好面对六个噩梦倒影。

“一人一个,它们的实力大概跟正常的欧吉尔德差不多,雷索应该都跟你们说过对方的实力。临时雾化、力大无穷,唯一和正版欧吉尔德不同的是他们并非真正的不死之身,是可以被杀死的。”

“这里只有我和雷索能够保证稳赢它们。”兰恩看向雷索,“我们尽快解决对手,其他人尽量拖延等我们过来支援。”

众猎魔人一起应声,长剑出鞘的声音不断响起。紧接着金光一闪,六道【昆恩法印】一起上身。

兰恩深吸一口气,催动体内的魔力注入左掌,用力一拍地面——【亚登法印·魔力爆发】!

一个几乎笼罩了整个房间的巨大紫色魔法阵从地上升起,宛若闪电的魔法光束在噩梦倒影的身上不断跳动,瞬间让所有原本雕像一般的怪物动了起来。

“上!”

看着迎面而来的丧尸版本欧吉尔德,兰恩当头就是一记火焰法印将对方笼罩。

噩梦倒影瞬间就被火焰吞噬,但是紧接着就有一股浓郁的黑雾从火焰的间隙中翻涌而出,好似有着生命一般在兰恩的头上凝聚成型,变成了一支握着弯刀的丑陋手臂。

兰恩瞳孔骤缩,向前一个翻滚躲过从天而降的敌人。

噩梦倒影落地之后摆出了一个极其别扭的姿势,好似一个被玩坏的玩偶一般,但是速度却不慢。

他以一种完全违反人体构造的发力方式持续挥刀,不断地劈砍在翻滚的兰恩身上。虽然全都被兰恩格挡下来造不成一丝伤害,但是那弯刀上面的红芒却是越来越盛。

“刷——”的一声,那弯刀终于积攒了足够的魔力,猛然爆发出一道一人多高的红色斩波,朝着兰恩凌空袭来。

而兰恩在躲过最初的偷袭之后也已经反应过来,此刻迎着欧吉尔德又是一个翻滚,宛若清风拂面一般从红芒中穿丝而过。

此刻噩梦倒影还在全力劈砍的惯性缓冲阶段,处于旧力已尽新力为生之际。兰恩抓住机会挥动符文长剑,金光爆闪之下就砍下了对方持刀的右手。然后剑尖轻转,又一剑斩下对方头颅。

这还不算完,知道对方有着一定程度的自愈能力,没有要害。兰恩毫无松懈地又将视线处只有自己能够看到的紫色沙漏标记再次挂载到对方身上,手动劈下一道亚登之雷,随后左手前伸开始酝酿火焰——

【伊格尼法印·魔力爆发】!

熊熊的火焰将三瓣残尸彻底吞噬,兰恩不敢懈怠地持续投入魔力维持火焰,化作一个人型喷火器。直到伴随着一阵嘶哑难听的惨叫响起,眼前的火焰中再次涌现出了一股子黑雾。

但是这次的黑雾再没有凝聚出实体,而是在空中一个分流成了四份,注入到了尚在的噩梦倒影之中。

嗯?四份?只有四个噩梦倒影了?

兰恩定睛一看,原来除了他之外,雷索也恰好对着自己眼前的噩梦倒影当胸一记念力冲击作为收割,将对方打成一团黑雾,也随之分流开来。

虽然不如兰恩有着眼花缭乱的法印攻势和雄厚的魔力基础,但是雷索凭借着超人的力量和丰富的战斗经验依旧能够取得和兰恩不相上下的战绩。如果是正经的猎魔而不是这种克制蛇派战斗方法的敌人,雷索的速度只会更快。

而在两个噩梦倒影死去的黑雾融合进剩下的敌人身体之中后,与之对敌的四名猎魔人顿觉压力大增。

兰恩看向他们。奥克斯和瑟瑞特配合默契,他们2V2地在对付眼前的敌人,本来还能够勉强应付,但是在敌人获得强化之后马上捉襟见肘了起来,雷索正在往他们的方向奔过去。

凯亚恩倒是游刃有余,兰恩原本还担心猫派的战法对待这种力大势沉且没有要害的敌人会手忙脚乱,却看到凯亚恩的力气居然还不输被两次黑雾强化过后的噩梦倒影。不仅如此,他还总能够准确地分辨出对方雾化后出现的方位,反制想要偷袭他的敌人。

看样子那几十年的实验和恶魔附体确实给凯亚恩的实力带来了极大的增强。他自己显然也是第一次这么酣畅淋漓地作战,此时双眼中的红芒那是越打越闪。就算没有支援,想必再过十几个回合也能够拿下敌人了。

那么眼前还需要关心一下的就只剩下一个人了——寇格林姆。

寇格林姆的实力是超过奥克斯和瑟瑞特的,不然也不会被派出来单独收集学派的传承装备蓝图。但是此刻蛇派最擅长的毒毫无效果,他又没有可以时刻照看后背的默契同伴互相照应,在噩梦倒影被强化的瞬间就惨遭压制。

“铛铛铛铛铛”只见眼前的敌人突然开始急速地剑舞,随后便是一道闻所未闻的刀芒斩击,一下子就把寇格林姆身上的【昆恩法印】击碎,还在他的胸甲上面留下了斩痕。

寇格林姆气急败坏地大喊:“该遭瘟疫的家伙!我新打的铠甲啊!甚至都还没来及附魔!”

没等他反应过来,突然又感觉到身侧又遭到了一记巨大的冲击,整个人毫无抵抗之力地斜着飞出去老远。

而就在他刚刚站立的地方,黑雾悄然凝聚成型,本来想要偷袭的噩梦倒影扭动手臂在原地对着空气打出一套连击。

兰恩奔跑中收回还掐着法印姿势的左手,垫步扭腰,沉肩挥臂,符文长剑暴射出金光。

【回旋剑舞】!

噩梦倒影挥舞长剑也要过来硬拼,却猛然被暗处吐露的毒蛇牙齿切断了左腿的肌肉,身形一歪,主动将脑袋送到了兰恩的剑下。

寇格林姆收剑后跳躲开,这才是他面对人型生物最舒服的战斗方式。

兰恩剑舞的第一圈就剁下了对方的脑袋,这还不够。他的身体继续随着惯性转动,剑刃灵活地在敌人的身上不断划过。

手肘、肩膀、膝盖、腿根、腰窝、胸膛。锋利的符文长剑每过一处就让噩梦倒影多变出“一份”金光在暗室之内不断暗下又亮起,好似绞肉机般“噗嗤噗嗤”个不停。

他硬生生地把这具噩梦倒影的身体砍成肉末,直到它彻底化成黑雾消失。

另一处战场,奥克斯和瑟瑞特在正前方顶住敌人的压力,而雷索这么一条带毒的巨蟒则隐入暗处偷袭,轻而易举地又把两个噩梦倒影打成残雾。

于是现场就剩下凯亚恩一人的。

这下猫派的猎魔人再不复之前势均力敌、越战越勇的局面,只能苦苦支撑起自己的【昆恩法印·护盾】,被敌人好似打铁一般斩得哐哐作响。

此刻空中尚有浓雾没有完全融入那具身体,兰恩抓住机会支援凯亚恩,给噩梦倒影留下不少伤势,随后六名猎魔人一起对付已经受伤不轻的噩梦倒影,终于将其绞杀。

空中还有尚未完全注入噩梦倒影的黑雾,此刻没有了目标,彻底消散在了空气之中。

房间中的蜡烛重新被点亮,光芒重新照亮了这个大厅。

众人气喘吁吁地收起长剑,四处张望,希望寻找黑猫和黑狗来给他们引导之后的方向。

但是他们再没看到那两个身影,反而是从大厅后面的一扇门后突然传来了脚步声。

那不像敌人的声音,因为脚步很轻,应该是女人或者孩子;而且步伐凌乱,听起来似乎很急切。

众人目光顿时聚焦到那里。

大门打开,有光线和黑暗一起撒了进来。一个大家都已经很熟悉、但却是初次见到的人出现在视线里。

她穿着那套宛若丧服的黑色长裙,戴着黑色的覆面头纱,上面点缀着小颗的珍珠。

爱丽丝,庄园的女主人,欧吉尔德的妻子。也是众人此趟画中梦境之旅的目标。

她的面色比之前回忆倒影的任何一次都显苍白,眼影凌乱,但是配合上她的身段和面庞,反而有了一种黑暗哥特风格的滤镜。不艳,却美。

不奇怪这样的一个女人能够同时吸引道欧吉尔德和欧菲尔王国的王子,甚至可以说这一连串的剧情都是因她而起。

此刻,爱丽丝的脸上带着一种难言的表情,屋内众多杀气腾腾的猎魔人没有让她露出一丝害怕。

“你们不是他……”

那声音在空**的大厅里面回**。

“你们是谁?我记得……我做了一个很长的噩梦,里面就有你们。”

终于见到了自己一行人此行的目标,兰恩上前一步朝着爱丽丝自我介绍:

“我们不是你的噩梦,恰恰相反,我们是来结束你的噩梦的。如果你仔细想一想,应该还能记得我们安葬了你的尸体。”

爱丽丝的脸上露出苦恼的神情,她盯着兰恩的脸,紧皱的眉头渐渐舒展开来。

“我睡了很久……入睡之前我记得我一直躺在**,看着欧吉尔德临走时送给我的紫玫瑰。就这样持续了好几天,直到它成为粉末……”

She suddenly lowered her eyes and saw her hands clasped on her lower abdomen, holding a gorgeous purple rose.

"I died? It seemed so... You buried me and made the purple rose reappear in this world. Then I woke up from my dream, just like my beautiful rose."

Alice, who had just woken up, gradually recalled everything. Perhaps it was because she hadn't seen other living people for a long time, or because Lann didn't seem like a bad person to her, she smiled at this moment.

It was a very faint smile, not the one that everyone had seen at weddings before, but it was still beautiful.

"Thank you. I also saw the portrait you took out of the room, which reminded me of how clumsy I was when I was learning to paint." Alice's grateful smile was fleeting. "You just said you wanted to end my nightmare. Why did you help me?"

"Because when I help you end your nightmare, I am also helping me." Lann lowered his voice, trying to make himself sound gentle. "We need your help to kill Olgierd. When he dies, your nightmare will end."

It is a bit too absurd to say that you want to kill someone's husband in front of his wife, even if the couple is already divorced.

Alice tightened her hands, causing the purple rose to shake.

"You are his enemy? That's right, considering his character." Alice shook her head and asked hesitantly, "What did he do?"

"Most of the evil you can think of."

This statement was far more powerful than recounting all of Olgierd's crimes. Alice lowered her head in sorrow. "I'm sorry, but he must have done terrible things to you, too."

Lann stepped forward and comforted him, "You don't have to apologize to anyone for him. You are now one of his countless evil deeds, and you have even suffered some of the most terrible ones."

After hearing what Lann said, Alice was silent for a long time and said, "I don't know if I still hate him. If he dies, it may be a relief for both him and me. But I don't know how I can help you, and I don't want to cause his death myself, so I'm sorry - I can't help you."

Lan En shook his head: "In fact, your presence is the biggest help to me."

Alice showed a puzzled expression, and then she saw Lann flip his hand, and suddenly a jade statue appeared in his hand. The appearance of the statue made her cover her mouth in surprise, and an incredible guess appeared in her mind.

In addition to this statue, a huge canvas appeared in Lane's other hand. When it was spread out on the ground, it turned out to be a huge moon drawn with simple strokes.

Lann placed the jade statue of Ogierd on the canvas and began to chant something, with chaotic energy surging all over his body.

Then the statue began to glow and swell, throb, and tremble. Its jade-like outer shell also peeled off, and finally a naked man appeared.

"Ogierd..." Alice covered her mouth. Nostalgia and fear appeared in her eyes at the same time, causing her to slowly step back until her slender back leaned against the wall of the hall.

Olgierd pressed his head, trying his best to overcome the effects of the spell. He was an abnormal life form that would not be harmed by the [Transformation and Sealing Spell] spell, or he didn't care about the harm, so after a short period of dizziness and confusion, he quickly recovered and began to look around.

"This is... my Everec Manor, and... Alice?"

Olgierd saw his wife.

"Lannister! I thought you would be an interesting man! Are you going to threaten me with my wife?!"

"Don't compare me to yourself, Olgierd," Lann said coldly, "and don't pretend to be a loving husband. You killed your wife's father, and used the devil summoned by black magic as a jailer to imprison her in this manor and not allow her to leave even a step, and caused her death."

Olgierd was stunned, and he turned to Alice. Being well versed in the dark arts, he immediately saw the essence of his wife's life at this moment.

"Alice...are you dead?"

The female ghost in black veil lowered her eyes. When she was trapped in the manor, she spent her days missing her husband, but when he really appeared in front of her, she just wanted to get away from him immediately.


Recommendation
