The God-favored Ones were stronger than ordinary people in every way, even in the use of the evil eye. When other executives used the evil eye, they would only experience minor problems like dizziness.
Unlike himself, he used all his strength for just a short while, but just creating an ice clone caused him to lose a lot of life.
But it doesn't matter now, we should get out as soon as possible and let others know that someone has invaded the headquarters!
The rich man ran along the road for a long time, and the light in front of his eyes became dimmer and dimmer, until he finally ran to a place without light.
Even in the darkest corners of Winterfell, there is no place as dark as this one.
The rich man stopped, he knew he couldn't escape.
"Hehe, I didn't expect that I would fail here. Outside the Queen's Palace, the headquarters of the Fatui." The rich man let out a few miserable laughs. It seemed that his ambitions would come to an end here.
"You talk a lot." The cold female voice sounded again, followed by the sound of cutting flesh.
Chapter 116 The situation escalates
2023-08-28
The darkness dissipated, and the rich man reappeared in his bedroom, but this time he was already unconscious.
The room, which had once been magnificent, became intimidating. The tapestries hanging on its walls were stained with a hint of red, and the red carpet with gold patterns was even more so.
The soft fur became curled and stiff, not only because it was stained with splattered blood, but also because of being scratched.
On the carpet, the rich man was lying quietly, his face still showing pain, and his left arm was missing.
Looking closely, the wound was not bright red, but dark. Faintly, one could hear the hissing sound of flesh being roasted.
The patrolling soldiers walked to the rich man's residence again, and when they looked up, they saw a figure in front of the window, still busy at his desk.
Everything was normal, the rich men still worked till late at night, and they also had to patrol until dawn, it seemed like today was just another ordinary day.
……
After dealing with the rich man, Black Blade set out again and headed to the next somewhat unique building.
The building is not as luxurious as the villas of the rich, but it covers a much larger area.
This is a factory building used to manufacture and research dolls. Catherine once walked out of here.
[Puppet] Sandoni's puppet manufacturing factory is also her residence. For a puppet who regards puppet research as everything, this factory is her best residence.
"No problem, let's go." The puppet said calmly as he looked at the man in front of him who was wearing a huge bamboo hat and strange clothes.
"Haha, you want to kick people out so soon? Could it be that one of those trash of yours can surpass me?" Sanbing looked at the many unfinished puppets inside the factory and smiled contemptuously.
This was his first time interacting with this colleague who was one seat below him. Previously, his maintenance work had always been handled by the doctor.
As for the puppet, Sanbing only knew that she was extremely obsessed with her research. And her face was always expressionless.
But the more the puppet acted like this, the more Sanbing wanted her to show other expressions. As for the method, it was naturally to criticize her research.
Even though things have been done to such an extreme extent, they can still only produce garbage. In Sanbing's opinion, the puppet is a pitiful fellow.
Even though they had only met a few times before.
"Don't make me say it a second time, get out!" The huge puppet behind the puppet stood up, and the puppet sitting on its hand was lifted up with it.
Puppet had also heard about Sanbing's character.
The puppet looked down at the soldier, his pale blue eyes devoid of any emotion. But judging from the meaning, if the soldier didn't know what was going on, the puppet might really throw him out.
"Okay, okay. I hope you can soon develop a fool who can chat with you." Sanbing raised the corner of his mouth, touched the brim of his hat, and prepared to leave.
But at this moment, something strange happened!
A figure suddenly appeared beside the arm of the giant puppet. He was not much taller than the giant puppet.
She stretched out her slender arm and pulled the puppet off the puppet's hand.
The concealment of its aura and the strength of its power caught everyone by surprise. Neither the scattered soldiers nor the puppets behind the puppet reacted.
"Crack!" A crisp sound of wood breaking was heard, and one of the puppet's arms fell off.
There was no blood, no cries of pain. What had just happened was just like simply removing the arm of an emotionless puppet.
"It's interesting." Lu casually burned the lifelike girl's arm in her hand, and she looked at the puppet in her other hand that was staring at her.
Beautiful girl, in that case, except for her, all the others should be destroyed.
[Big sister, how is it? ] Lu asked while holding the puppet and dodging a heavy punch from the huge puppet in front of her.
[Not enough, they want one eighth of her soul.] Yaleto frowned, what a troublesome guy. Can't he just be a good person and let them chop off one of his hands?
"Understood!" Lu smiled cheerfully, then jumped onto the shoulder of the giant puppet that was in a runaway state.
Fighting with such a bulky guy would best bring out her speed advantage as a black swordsman.
A ferocious black dagger like a one-handed sword appeared in Lu's hand. A blazing black flame began to burn on the blade.
Lu stabbed down with a knife, and the giant puppet also swung its giant fist towards Lu's hammer on its shoulder. It was a wise choice, but there was more than one black knife.
The pressure from the giant fist made Lu give up further attacks. But behind the giant puppet, two black swords suddenly appeared!
The dagger burning with black flames was inserted into the puppet's body, and raging black flames gushed out, burning everything to ashes.
"Hmph!" The puppet in Lu's hand groaned, and his expressionless face finally showed a slight change. Of course, it was only a slight change.
Lu didn't care about the changes in the puppet in his hand. There would be many more such experiences in the future.
"Swish!" There was a sound of wind in the distance, but Lu didn't care because she believed someone would stop her.
"Bang!" The light blue wind blade collided with the condensed white wind bomb, and the two canceled each other out, leaving only a slight breeze.
Storm Blade - Stonewell's lost fighting skill, wrap the weapon with a storm blade and release the storm forward, which can be cast continuously.
Another identical figure appeared in the factory. When the scattered soldiers and puppets saw the four people who were almost carved from the same mold, they all showed surprised expressions.
But they soon recovered. No matter how strange it was, it was still an enemy! And an extremely difficult enemy at that!
"Haha, what an old-fashioned outfit! You have very poor taste!" The scattered soldiers laughed at Heidao's outfit while fighting in the sky.
His favorite thing was to watch the enemies below from the air, unable to do anything except hastily dodge his attacks.
This feeling of being high above others made him feel like a god, and Sanbing always believed that one day, he could become a god too.
The black knives on the ground said nothing. During the battle, they liked to remain silent.
Besides, there was no need to refute the guy above, because victory was won through fighting, not talking. What's more, the guy above was about to lose.
"Haha, you...you guys..." The soldiers flying in the air suddenly stiffened.
He looked at the tip of the knife sticking out from his chest and tried to turn his head to look. Behind him, a black knife thrust the dagger into his body.
"Plop!" The soldier fell from the air to the ground. His energy core was destroyed, and now there was nothing to support the operation of his body.
When the puppet in Lu Ti's hand saw five identical guys appear in front of him, he stopped the operation of the Heart of God around his waist.
These guys in front of her were not only powerful, but also specialized in assassins. If there was only one of them, she would definitely fight back. If there were two, she would also fight desperately, but if there were five, then she would have no hope of escaping.
"Who are you? I don't remember having any contact with you." The puppet raised his eyes and looked at the five guys in front of him, his voice still emotionless.
"Take back your soul to save us from trouble." The same emotionless female voice reached the puppet's ears.
But what surprised her was that even though there were five people right in front of her, she couldn't tell who made the voice.
The puppet did not show any reaction when she heard Heidao's words. Gathering her consciousness in this situation would be tantamount to suicide, and she would not do that.
"Woo——" Suddenly, a sharp and long roar sounded from a distance.
The sound was like a key that activated the sleeping beast of the Fatui. The loud assembly call, the chaotic footsteps, the crisp sound of the bolts being pulled...
Countless voices reached Heidao's ears, and they lasted for a long time.
"If you five run away now, you might still be able to get away." The puppet looked at the five people who had not changed at all, and said as if to remind them.
But obviously, her words were useless because the five people in front of her were attracted by more important things.
"Ask us to go back, are you kidding me?"
"Why so fast? I haven't spent enough time in this world."
"Hey! Big sis, can we have some fun now?"
"Well... within the framework set by the king, we can make some noise."
……
Countless identical voices spoke different words. The puppet looked up and saw that the five figures had turned into eleven.
Chapter 117: The Knife in the Dark
2023-08-28
"Who... are you?" The puppet looked at the eleven identical figures in front of him, and his expressionless face finally became interesting.
Each of these people in front of him was as strong as the Executive. And now, there were eleven of them! With such a powerful force, why didn't the Fatui know anything?
Options flashed through the puppet's mind one after another, but she couldn't find any answers.
"It seems that your brain is not as smart as the other one." A slightly mocking voice came.
"The other one..." The puppet slowly closed her eyes, then opened them again. She now knew who it was.
"ember?"
"The answer is correct, but there is no reward." Heidao answered the puppet's words. Even though they were exposed, they did not panic at all.
Now the Fatui only know that someone has entered the headquarters, which is completely different from finding them.
Knowing that a black knife has sneaked in and discovering the black knife's traces are two completely different things.
"Did you kill the rich man?" The puppet asked, looking at the black knife in front of him.
"You should be grateful for the kindness of the king and Catherine." An arm wearing a black glove and a jeweled ring was thrown in front of the puppet.
"King..." The puppet savored what Heidao said, and her face returned to expressionless.
"I'll pay the price."
"One eighth of your soul, and the destruction of all your creations."
After hearing what Heidao said, the puppet's body stiffened. She didn't expect the price to be so heavy.
