"ah!"
At the moment the chandelier fell, the stand-in suddenly pulled Liz back, and the square chandelier in the corridor fell in front of Liz with a bang. The broken fragments cut Liz's little feet in white stockings.
Liz didn't care about this minor injury and looked at the stand-in nervously: "Are you okay?"
Unlike her, the stand would be immediately released if it received even a little damage. If she was now a doll without the ability to resist, then the stand was real foam.
The stand-in didn't respond, but simply carried Liz across the debris ground and fled forward along the aisle silently and loyally.
Behind them, the cold black knight was slowly chasing their backs.
It was wearing a dense fish-scale skirt armor, an ebony helmet with a crow-feather tassel, and dark silver steel boots that made dull steps on the carpet, and when it walked it was like a mark of ink pressed on drawing paper.
It was not actually very tall, and even with the armor on, it was not very strong, but its silent pressure was enough to make all prey gasp for air. It did not have any weapons, but only held a book with a black and silver cover in its hands - the Gospel.
When the Stand-in and Liz passed by the window, the Black Knight behind them flicked his fingers lightly, and the glass window suddenly shattered and flew into countless pieces. If the Stand-in had not hugged Liz and rushed forward in time, they would have experienced a rain of glass shards.
This is the 13th time.
This was the 13th time that Liz had encountered this kind of 'accident'.
The moment Liz saw the Black Knight in the bedroom, the Stand picked her up and ran outside. Unexpectedly, the Black Knight did not attack immediately, and even allowed them to run a few more steps, just like a doctor trying to judge the patient's capacity.
When they had escaped to a certain distance and Liz was almost thinking that the Black Knight had walked into the wrong door, an "accident" occurred.
And it’s a family trip with all the family members.
Shattered chandeliers, exploded fire extinguishers, shattered windows, fallen lime, cracked doors… This building, where the core members of the Sennheiser family lived, suddenly became a dangerous building, with surprises everywhere that could startle people at any time.
Just now, when Liz tried to run to the stair fire escape, she watched the solid and heavy wall collapse and turned into a pile of rocks blocking the fire escape, which directly became the biggest hidden danger of firefighting. Compared with the fire escape, the treatment at the elevator entrance was much better - it was just that it was too old to smoke and retired early.
Obviously, the Black Knight didn't intend to kill her, but he didn't intend to let her escape from this floor either. Liz had only two choices: hide in other rooms and play hide-and-seek with the Black Knight, or jump out of the window.
Not to mention that the Black Knight had just demonstrated his extraordinary ability in hide-and-seek, Liz had experienced what it was like to play hide-and-seek with someone who had the Gospel a few days ago - Ash was really not a human being, he had to spend Gospel points to cheat when playing hide-and-seek with children.
Liz didn't know what to do now. Although she wanted to discuss it with her sisters, when she saw the black knight just now, her sisters did not appear in the mirror. At that time, the little witch understood what her sisters meant.
If she guessed correctly, this black knight should be coming for the sisters, and the sisters cannot show up easily!
Now it's her turn to protect her sister!
"Why are you chasing me?!" Liz climbed onto the stand's shoulder and shouted at the Black Knight, "I don't know you, and I haven't done anything bad. Why are you doing this?"
"My foot was scratched and it hurts. My hand also hurts from the collision just now. Ouch..."
As she spoke, tears began to fall from Liz's eyes. She bit her lips in grievance and rubbed her eyes and face. Her hairband was torn off when she ran, and her long hair as pure as snow fell on her trembling shoulders. Her nose was sore. The more she spoke, the more aggrieved she felt. She even became more and more angry and waved her fist at the black knight from a distance.
She has to act super innocent, and this is indeed a task that only she can accomplish. None of her sisters can do it!
Faced with Liz's questioning and crying, the Black Knight actually thought about it, pulled out a pen from the spine of the book and wrote and drew in the Gospel.
Suddenly, a mechanical voice without a single up or down sounded from a speaker in the corner of the corridor: "The white fog has dissipated. You are not affected at all."
Liz was startled and turned to look out the window, only to find that the white mist that had been entangled with Fanmula for hundreds of years had quietly hidden away at some point, and the delicate night was trying to find it out.
Although they have been focusing on finding information about the incarnation of the gospel these days, this is Fanmila after all, so it is inevitable that they have obtained a lot of information about Fanmila.
Liz was too lazy to remember the social changes caused by the Beauty Mist. She only remembered one thing - if you stay in Fanmu La for more than 6 hours, you must go through special treatment before leaving the dense fog area, otherwise it will trigger the most serious withdrawal reaction. Note that it is not leaving Fanmu La, but just leaving the dense fog area. For example, the inter-city new area under development is a misty forbidden area that Fanmu La citizens cannot set foot in.
On the other hand, even if you don’t leave Fanmula, as long as the concentration of white fog decreases, you will still be strangled by the withdrawal reaction!
When Liz read the information, she felt horrified. Those ordinary people who were in withdrawal reaction almost became dazed, their eyes were empty, their consciousness disappeared, and they even had incontinence. She once asked Yaxiu how to solve this problem. Yaxiu's solution was to prepare diapers. At that time, Liz deeply realized the limitations of single-parent families, and stepmothers must be arranged as soon as possible.
At this moment, Liz suddenly remembered that she had just seen several maids lying on the ground in the corridor. She thought they were beaten by the black knight, but the maids had no scars on their bodies, and each of them had dull eyes and drooled, which was exactly the symptoms of withdrawal reaction!
No wonder Sennheiser was so quiet, maybe everyone except her was incontinent, I hope they had diapers ready.
So, why was nothing wrong with her?
"So what!" The little witch said with her neck stiff, "Is it okay if I am in good health and not affected? Is there anything wrong with being in good health? Aren't you also not affected!"
The Black Knight continued writing and drawing, and spoke through the speaker in the hallway: "You just said that you were injured and in pain. Is that true?"
"Could it be fake?" Liz waved her fist angrily, "My hand is still bleeding!"
boom!
The Black Knight suddenly pointed in the distance, and the ceiling above Liz and the substitute instantly cracked and collapsed. The rubble fell along with the dust, and it seemed that it was about to crush Liz and smash the substitute!
"Get down!"
The stand-in can't speak, it just listens.
It immediately curled up into a ball and lay on the ground. Countless debris hit the ground next to it with a crackling sound, but not even a stone touched it.
But it wasn't really unscathed.
Drops of blood fell on its face and spread, mixing with the dust to form a dirty and sticky paint. It turned its head and looked up, and what came into its eyes was a delicate and delicate little figure.
Liz spread her hands to block the double. What hit her back was a rock bigger than her. The back of her head seemed to be injured. Red droplets slid down along the gravity, leaving a bloody path on the dusty white-haired grassland, crushing her slender eyebrows, and turning into dewdrops that hit the double's face drop by drop. Her knees were slightly bent, and her white stockings were torn. The rust-red color escaped from the scars and spread on the white silk, like a rose blooming on the snow.
This tiny, fragile crystal child who seemed like he could break easily, was now like an indestructible wall, enduring all the damage alone, just to protect a bubble.
"Take me away," she said.
The Stand immediately hugged Liz and fled, narrowly avoiding the rubble of the second collapse. Liz hugged the Stand tightly, looking at the Black Knight with hatred.
"You're not actually in any pain. With your current injuries, you should have fainted."
Resentment overwhelmed her thoughts at this moment. Liz yelled at the top of her voice, "Go to hell! Die! I'm not afraid of people like you! I won't faint! Woohoo! I'll call daddy to beat you to death!"
The Black Knight ignored Liz and continued talking to himself in an orderly manner: "I was just suspicious at first, but now I am basically sure. The so-called pain you feel is just a feeling you imagined. Hormones and neurons cannot really affect you."
"Why aren't you affected by the white mist? Because you can't imagine the effects of withdrawal."
"Why didn't you pass out even though you were seriously injured? Because you didn't want to faint."
"As long as you don't care or think about it, nothing exists."
For some reason, as she listened to the Black Knight analyzing her situation point by point, Liz felt an indescribable panic in her heart. She resisted the urge to take out the hand mirror and hugged the stand's neck tightly with both hands, her nails almost pinching the stand, as if she was afraid that the Black Knight's next words would make her lose everything.
"What...exactly do you want to say?!"
Bang!
Another window nearby broke, and the Stand-in held Liz to avoid the rain of broken glass.
In the chaotic rain of debris, Liz saw the Black Knight write a sentence in the Gospel, and the loudspeaker above sounded a cold verdict:
"You are not the master of this body, so this body cannot affect you."
"You're not even human."
"You are just a sorcerer."
