Chapter 295 Strong Girl Development Plan
Chapter 295 Strong Girl Development Plan
"What on earth did you do?"
There was a voice in the air that was clearly unable to be suppressed and was extremely shocked.
Then, the man in gray revealed himself. He looked at the situation in the house, the pile of dirt on the ground that looked like a human, the lingering smell of rot and blood in the air, and the stunned mad lion and the equally stunned orange cat in his arms.
More importantly, 'that guy' who was obviously badly burned but remained calm and composed.
"Hatred, what I mean is that Cinderella actually has hatred in her heart, she just doesn't show it. Strictly speaking, she is already sick, and very sick." Luo Xi's tone was like that of an old Chinese doctor.
There was a look of astonishment in the eyes of 'Gray Clothes'. He looked at Cinderella, then at Luo Xi and Crazy Lion, and even at the orange cat for a long time.
Finally, he looked back at the human-shaped pile of dirt on the ground.
In an instant he seemed to understand something.
"You killed... a fairy?" He almost screamed the first syllable, but after realizing that the sound might be a bit loud, he immediately lowered his voice: "You, how on earth did you do it? You can't be her opponent. I once saw this cat eat a strong man. It was just like eating a biscuit, biting it off one bite at a time."
This sentence sounds like both a question and an affirmative tone.
Luo Xi raised his hand and showed the knife in his hand.
There was blood on it.
"Stab with a knife, find a slightly angle, the neck and chest, stab in and then stir. Remember to stab continuously, otherwise this woman will strangle you to death." Luo Xi explained very seriously.
"Are you fucking crazy? No, you were seriously injured and attacked by a spell, but you didn't die?" The man in gray seemed to have just noticed the horrific burn scars on Luo Xi's body.
Then he suddenly walked over and rummaged through the human-shaped pile of mud on the ground.
But obviously, nothing was found.
Because Luo Xi had already found the valuable things.
"What did you get from her?" asked the man in gray.
Luo Xi smiled and said nothing.
Wow!
The man in gray threw a few gold coins over, which rolled to the ground.
He thought Luo Xi wanted money.
"Don't forget, these gold coins were given to you by me. Do you think I would be short of such things?" Luo Xi spoke in the tone of a rich man with a mocking tone.
"So what about the information?" Gray Clothes sighed, "If you want to get through Fairy Tale Town, then the information I have will definitely be useful to you."
"Tell me first, who knows if your information is valuable." Luo Xi was really tempted.
"Information about fairies, or rather, witches, and why they chose Cinderella!" The man in gray looked at the sleeping girl.
"Okay, I'm quite interested. Let's sit down and chat. Go and keep an eye on the door. If stepmother and the other two come back, tell us immediately." The latter sentence was said to Crazy Lion.
The latter nodded and walked out carrying the cat.
At this time, Luo Xi took out a ticket, which was the ticket number 7 that he had just obtained.
The man in gray understood immediately after seeing it.
"It turns out that she has ticket number 7 hidden on her body, which corresponds to node number 7." The man in gray seemed to be lost in some kind of contemplation.
After a while, he asked, "Can you give me the boat ticket?"
Luo Xi shook his head.
"It doesn't matter. As long as I know the channel, I'll find a way to do it myself next time." The man in gray did not insist. Then, he told her all the secrets he knew about witches and Cinderella.
"Fairies and witches are actually the same thing, and they exist in different nodes of Fairy Tale Town. In other words, their shadows can be found in all nodes, and they will influence the plots of different nodes in overt or covert ways." Gray Clothes said. This was the information he used for exchange.
Luo Xi was stunned.
What the other party described didn't seem like a character in the plot, but rather some kind of huge organization similar to the Memory Collector.
"I know what you are thinking, and I can give you a definite answer. There are people who restore memories in the Witch Alliance, and they are very powerful. This is the information I got after a long time of investigation." The man in gray said in a low voice.
This is indeed surprising news.
But if you think about it carefully, it makes sense.
Because the "Fairy Tale Town" itself has existed for a very long time during the days of confinement, almost no one knows when the "Fairy Tale Town" actually appeared.
It seems that when the Day of Imprisonment existed, the horror legend of "Fairy Tale Town" also appeared.
Then, there must be deep-rooted people who remember memories in the fairy tale town. The number may not be large, but they must exist.
Even the culprit that turned the originally normal fairy tale into such a terrifying and dark one is related to these memory collectors and the "Witch Union".
This matter was not only Luo Xi's guess, but also the one in "Gray Clothes" thought so.
"I suspect that the entire Fairy Tale Town has been controlled by the Witch Union. They are the ones who have imprisoned this place, so no one who has entered the Fairy Tale Town can escape." The man in gray told everything he had discovered and the corresponding speculations without reservation.
"That doesn't make sense. What's their purpose in doing this? Since they control the exit, it means they can leave. If they can leave, why don't they leave?"
"Why do you want to leave?" Gray asked back. At this moment, Luo Xi felt that the other party was very similar to the enthusiastic female receptionist in the bar.
They are talking about the same theory.
But the two people have completely different ideas.
"Because the world outside is closer to the real world, that's the reason." Luo Xi used the same theory to answer a similar question.
The man in gray seemed very satisfied with this answer.
"Wait a moment!" Luo Xi's stomach made a rumbling sound at this time. He got up, walked to the kitchen next door, and took out a lot of food from the house.
Bread, cheese, milk, fruit and sausages.
These things are the most common foods in the Node 2 world. They are not delicious, but for Luo Xi, the most important thing is that they can replenish energy.
Taste is important, but sometimes, it is not that important.
"Sorry, I'm a little hungry. I'll eat something first!" Luo Xi said and started eating.
In a short period of time, he ate a basket of bread, at least five pounds of cheese, a large bucket of milk, a large basket of fruit and a dozen sausages.
Basically, we ate up all the stock here.
Finally, I had nothing to eat, so I started chewing raw carrots.
"Go on talking, why are you looking at me?" Luo Xi said while chewing.
At this moment, Luo Xi redefined the concept of "eating something", which made the man in gray clothes stunned.
"As for Cinderella, it's actually the Witch Union finding someone who is suitable to become a witch, or, I think, a vessel of some kind. I don't know whether someone has tampered with the plot of the fairy tale, or whether the core of the fairy tale is a horror story. In short, she will eventually become some kind of terrifying existence, and her original soul will be replaced."
When saying this, the man in gray inadvertently revealed some strange emotions.
Luo Xi is an expert in observation, so naturally nothing could escape his eyes.
"Then don't worry, at least this time, she won't be led astray by that witch." Luo Xi had already eaten seven carrots, and then looked at the cabbage.
Thinking about whether to take a bite.
"So I think this is an opportunity, an opportunity to break this confinement and fate." There was an impulse in the gray-clothed man's tone.
It can be seen that he is trying hard to suppress certain emotions.
"What are you going to do?" Luo Xi asked, while giving up on the cabbage in his heart.
"To be honest, I don't care about Ticket No. 7. What I care about is the other things you got from the witch, such as the key props that the witch can use. I mean to train Cinderella to be a strong and independent woman, a strong woman who will not be bullied by her stepmother, who will not feel inferior and self-pitying, and who does not need to rely on marrying into the royal family to have a happy life. A truly beautiful ending for the story, where she should control her own destiny instead of being manipulated by others."
It can be seen that Gray Clothes has had this idea for some time.
I didn’t expect this guy to be quite romantic!
Luo Xi didn't say anything, he knew that 'Gray Clothes' still had some things to tell him.
"I mean, change the plot of the fairy tale, but not in a bad direction, because someone has tried to do it in a bad direction. Conversely, it doesn't work according to the original plot. Perhaps, the real way to pass Node 2 is to let Cinderella take control of her own destiny, just like us, the Memory Collectors, we also need to take control of our own destiny. I think doing so will definitely trigger some kind of plot point that no one has ever triggered before."
I have to say that Gray Clothes' analysis is very reasonable.
Because after Luo Xi killed the Fairy Godmother witch, he did find something [an unknown magic core] on her body.
This thing is more like an exclusive quest item, perhaps used on the plot character Cinderella.
Obviously, 'Gray Clothes', who knew more about Node 2, had already discovered this possibility, but he had never had the chance to achieve it.
Probably because he couldn't beat the Fairy Godmother.
It may also be due to the control of the 'Darkforge Tavern' to which he belongs.
The man in gray clothes soon exposed this matter.
"The owner of the Darkforge Tavern is very strong. It is said that he is one of the first people to be trapped in Storybrooke. Even now, he is still looking for a way to get out of Storybrooke. But I don't trust him."
"Isn't he your boss?"
“Working is just a last resort.”
"Do you trust me?"
"I don't believe it, but you are no match for the tavern owner. I can take control of the situation under special circumstances."
"I can see that you are an honest person." Luo Xi praised.
The other party said these things not without purpose, but to gain his trust. However, this man in gray was not at the same level as Luo Xi when it came to bargaining and dealing with others.
In Luo Xi's opinion, the other party was at best a lower-average level.
There is no doubt that Gray Clothes wants to use Luo Xi to do something, and in turn, Luo Xi has the same desire.
So they hit it off and reached a preliminary cooperation.
The first project is Cinderella's "Strong Girl Development Plan".
