Chapter 283
Chapter 280 Oh, that’s all right.
Led by Mephisto, Alice and Arale walked into the park.
This is a very ordinary park with a small area, but it is well planned. There is an artificially excavated lake in it, surrounded by a very wide grassland.
The nearby residents usually choose the location here for outdoor gatherings and other activities.
Martin Lee also brought Kraft and Alice here, as well as Peter Parker’s family, and some people in the homeless shelter.
After Arale was able to move freely, Alice led her to experience the places she had visited before and the activities she had participated in, and they had just been here just a while ago.
Passing through a tree-lined path, the three came to the artificial lake. The empty grassland has now been occupied by large and small colored tents.
A group of children laughed and crawled between the tents, and Joker was selling snacks, drinks and balloons and other gadgets.
“Eh-when we came two days ago, it was still empty here.”
Alice stretched out her hand to cover her mouth, and whispered, “When did so many things move in? I didn’t notice it at all.”
She thought the so-called circus performances were just small circuses, because the traditional means of temporarily attracting customers like this had long been abandoned by those large circuses.
Generally speaking, this kind of large-scale circus performance will be advertised in advance and then pre-sold tickets, and the location will not be in such an ordinary or even not very eye-catching place, otherwise it will not be able to pay back at all.
But Alice didn’t understand the twists and turns in it, she just thought it was strange to see a circus performance by a large circus suddenly here.
As for Arale, not to mention, she had joined the group of children with a big laugh and had a great time.
“You can walk around here now, our performance still has 13 minutes and 46 seconds to officially start.”
Mephisto, who was doing the whole show, raised his wrist, looked at his watch and said to Alice, then took off and bowed again politely.
“I’ll be temporarily separated.”
Alice replied politely, and then ran to Arale with small steps, “Arale, you can’t run around, elder sister will take you to buy something to eat first, okay?”
“Great–!”
The two held hands and wandered around the area where the circus was stationed.
Although the official performance has not yet begun, there are still relatively simple performances like tossing the ball and stepping on a wheelbarrow, so Alice and Arale did not feel bored while they were waiting. Instead, they looked forward to the next official performance.
After more than ten minutes, salutes sounded everywhere, and with countless flying balloons and falling ribbons, the performance officially began.
Alice and Arale followed the flow of people into the largest tent in the middle, then found a very good viewing position and sat down.
“Huh? Speaking of it, we don’t seem to have bought tickets…”
When the two of them sat down, Alice tilted her head in doubt, but soon she left the matter behind, because the following performance had already begun.
“Good looking forward! Good looking forward!”
Arale sat next to Alice, clenched both hands, and stared excitedly at the animal trainer and a group of large and small animals.
As the opening show, the appearance of a large number of animals instantly made the children present joyous Roar, and Alice and Arale are naturally no exception.
As the performance progressed, the trainer in the venue suddenly initiated an invitation, wanting to choose two people to cooperate with him in the performance.
“I want to participate! I want to participate!”
Arale stood on the chair definitely, straightened his arms and shouted.
“Okay, then I will invite the two little sisters over there.”
The trainer stretched out his hand to the position of Arale, and the assistant beside him walked quickly in front of the two of them.
“Excuse me, are you sure you want to accept my invitation? You will stay with some terrible things next.”
The assistant confirmed again.
If it were a normal human being, it would naturally be more or less worried, but Alice and Arale are both robots, so naturally they are not afraid of lions or tigers.
Seeing both Alice and Arale nodded without hesitation, Mephisto, who turned into an assistant, showed a weird smile: “So… the contract is established.”
After speaking, he stretched out his hand to grab the arms of both, and then fell back straight like this.
At the same time, the crowds around Roar, the trainers and animals on the field, and the huge amounts of tents all turned into a puff of blue smoke and disappeared, but a black vortex of huge amounts of appeared on the ground, which from time to time Spit out a crimson fire.
Alice and Arale only felt that their feet were empty, being dragged by the assistant of the animal trainer whose image had changed dramatically in front of them, and fell into the black whirlpool together.
…
“Brother! Sister Alice and Arale have an accident!”
Kraft, who was sorting out his messy inventory and preparing for the next parallel world trip, suddenly heard Angela’s anxious Roar cry in his ear.
Kraft froze for a moment, and subconsciously pulled out his ears, suspecting that he might have heard it wrong.
“What did you just say? An accident happened to Arale?”
On earth, who else can cause Arale to have an accident?
Wait, could it be Arale who caused something?
Such as breaking the earth…
But I didn’t feel the earthquake or anything?
If only some buildings were destroyed, Angela shouldn’t be so anxious.
Various speculations flashed through Kraft’s heart, but he quickly denied them all.
“Someone has shot their souls, it’s probably the Mephisto you mentioned before!”
Soon, Angela gave the answer.
Kraft knew that she had marked her and Alice’s souls, and immediately understood what was going on.
“What?! How are they doing now?!”
Now Kraft was also anxious, he was weak in this regard.
The Mephisto incident, that is, Ancient One casually mentioned, Kraft completely forgot about it after giving the Soul Gem to Angela for self-defense, let alone any complete response plan.
“Angela, first try to see if you can turn them back together.”
Both Alice and Arale are equipped with a folding device that can go home quickly. In addition to themselves, Angela can also forcibly activate this device.
Although their souls were dragged into hell by Mephisto, their mechanical bodies were still able to function normally, so soon, the motionless bodies of Alice and Arale appeared in front of Kraft.
“Their souls are gone,” Angela said to Kraft with a weeping voice, “I rushed over as soon as the marker was triggered, but I couldn’t find any clues at all.”
“Don’t worry, I will find a professional to deal with it.”
Kraft comforted Angela, then called Ancient One.
“Didn’t you say that Mephisto will be handled by the guy named Doctor Strange?! How can he still find a chance to shoot Alice and Arale?! That’s what you Kamar-Taj did?!”
Kraft cursed at Ancient One as soon as the call was connected.
Ancient One, who was on vacation fishing on a certain island, also looked dazed when she received Kraft’s call, but she quickly extracted key information from Kraft’s mouth.
Ancient One opened a portal without saying a word and came to Kraft’s side.
After carefully examining the motionless Alice and Arale, Ancient One breathed a sigh of relief.
Judging from the magical reaction remaining in the two bodies, they were only brought to hell by the simplest summoning contract. In this case, it should be too late.
“I will go to hell to bring them both back, but you’d better lend me the Soul Gem.”
Ancient One turned his head and said to Kraft.
“no problem!”
Angela on the side quickly summoned Soul Gem from her body and handed it over to Ancient One.
Although Kraft wanted to go to hell with Ancient One, he also knew that he was not good at this, so he could only count on Ancient One.
“You must bring them back to safety!”
Kraft sincerely asked Ancient One. No matter how powerful the mechanical bodies of Alice and Arale are, they can only be replaced by souls…Huh?
He suddenly remembered something, Arale seemed to be very critical in his soul state.
Oh, that’s all right.
Kraft instantly changed an extremely calm expression, and said to Ancient One: “When Arale has fun in hell, bring them back.”
Ancient One:? ? ?
