Chapter 12: sleep late at night

Igna judged it right away.

—It's that Asgar man!

However, at this time, Igna was two floors away from the top of the wine rack!

And, now, his body is starting to stiffen again, and Igna is sure that there is absolutely no way for him to climb to the top before the man opens the door.

But at this time, if you use electric shock to forcibly "wake up", the Asgar man will find out his position and plan!

"Dong-dong-dong-dong-" The beating of the heart and the sound of the door opening filled Igna's ears.

His throat was dry, his head was tight, and his heart was beating so fast that it seemed that he could pop out of his throat in the next second.

However, at this moment, Igna couldn't take a deep breath and would be discovered.

He can't use electroshock either, he'll be discovered.

He can't maintain his current state either, the sound of heartbeat and unrestrained breathing...will be discovered.

In a flash, Igna held his breath and bit his tongue forcefully.

He groaned in his mouth. But the strong blood and pain in his mouth also suppressed all his nervousness.

Her heartbeat returned to normal, and her head was no longer tight.

Although the limbs were still stiff, the part above the neck finally returned to normal.

Ignatius also became quick-witted, and at this time, he even thought of a solution.

Rather than being afraid to sit back and wait, it's better to take the initiative and strike first.

With a pinch of Igna's finger, the basement quickly filled with layers and layers, a thick mist that seemed to have spilled milk in the air.

"Mist creation!"

Before the door opened, Ignatius cast a fog technique.

Like the messenger of the weather, within a five-meter radius around him, a milky white mist that makes people invisible.

"Squeak—" The door was gently opened.

"Are you here?" A call came from behind the door, the voice was soft and unusually gentle.

"Does our highly anticipated juggler think hide-and-seek is fun?" The Asgar man's words echoed in the basement, and his voice was a little erratic, hidden in the layered footsteps, as if they were everywhere.

Hearing his voice, Igna froze in his heart, but the movements of his subordinates did not stop.

That person couldn't have come so fast!

With a pinch of his fingers, he used two more wind blows to blow the mist away in two directions, east and north!

There, there are walls!

The fog drifting to the northeast at this moment is two conspicuous targets in this underground. It looks like Igna is desperate at this time, and wants to use the method of choosing one of the two to find a way for himself to escape. 's way of life.

Igna will use misdirection and time difference to give himself a chance to escape!

"Snapped-"

Electric shock.

In the scattered fog, a lightning bolt that could not be located flashed.

Immediately afterwards, Igna threw out the three small marbles in his hand.

"Bang, bang bang—"

"Bang, bang bang—"

"Bang, bang bang—"

The small ball, which was originally used to hide the trick, bounced back and forth between the wine barrel and the wine rack with a dull sound.

Under the cover of the sound, Igna added full force and climbed up.

It's about to succeed!

Pushing on the barrel, Igna climbed up.

"Snapped-"

It was about to see the dawn, but Igna felt that someone was grabbing his ankle!

Of course Igna will not let himself fall short. This attack from the Asgars was expected by Ignatius.

"Fall!" Igna cast the spell with precision. The slippery fall technique was precisely applied to his ankle. Let Asgar's hands slip in an instant.

"Depend on!"

And Igna stepped on the man's abuse and opened the upward door!

-

The Asgar man seemed to be bewildered, and Ignat managed to reach the ground smoothly.

When returning to the kitchen on the first floor, Igna only felt that he had returned from winter to spring, and he could even feel the sun shining on him.

The taste of the almond cake is still very sweet and warm.

There was no one around, the Asgar man hadn't realized that he was here.

However, the children's playful voices still echoed in the room, as if they didn't know anything about what just happened.

is it possible?

Igna did not investigate the source of the sound. Instead, the previously deduced plan was immediately executed.

If you have life, you have time to think about the reason!

If he wanted to survive, he had to play "hide and seek" with him without the Asgar man realizing it.

Use the room to "open the door" to get rid of the time difference.

Thus, find out other loopholes in this house, or other ways to get out of trouble.

"For example, the inability to 'open the door' to the outside may just be 'incapable' in the sense of occultism." Igna decided to start with the easiest aspect.

Try to see if you can physically "open the door".

"Although the possibility is very small, you can't just give up."

Igna set his sights on the back door of the kitchen.

There, the first thing he saw was not the door, but two colleagues who fell to the ground and hadn't had time to meet them after crossing.

The blood from Bendrick's chest had begun to solidify, and Colt's head was on the ground. Both their eyes and mouths were wide open.

"…"

Igna was silent for a moment.

…Sorry.

he said inwardly.

Everything is because of me.

Sorry.

Igna walked up to them lightly, and before opening the door, he stretched out his hand and gently closed the wide eyes for Bandrick and Colt, so that they could "rest their eyes", so that they could " sleep peacefully".

However, when Igna's hand touched the eyes of the two of them, he suddenly heard someone singing psalms outside the door, as if he had a hallucination.

The sound is calm, making people feel as if they are in a quiet night, and there seems to be a sky full of stars in front of them.

It was a clear, peaceful and sad male voice. The tone is soft, yet sad.

He heard someone say:

"When the sun goes down in the west,

"The dewdrops adorned the hem of the twilight,

"She is as pale as the moon without makeup.

"Or like the stars that accompany the moon

"...(Note 1

I don't know why, hearing this voice, Igna suddenly didn't want to do anything.

The tense feeling on the body completely disappeared, and the whole body completely relaxed at this moment.

It was as if after a long trek, after being exhausted to the extreme, after taking a refreshing hot bath, I met a Simmons who was accustomed and coveted.

At this moment, Igna just wanted to sleep, just wanted to sleep forever.

this is not right...

This... can't...

In such a situation, Ignat, who was habitually self-stimulating, wanted to snap his fingers and use electric shock to wake him up.

Previously at the altar, he was able to wake himself up in this way. At this time, it should be effective...

But this time, before Igna's fingers were rubbed apart, his raised hand dropped.

"boom-"

Igna stared blankly at the door in front of him being violently broken open, but was indifferent.

His eyes were peaceful and calm.

"Event No.: Conston West - 1352101801

"Event Level: Dangerous

"Handlers: Chris Sheehan, Sean Lee, Leander Lodge.

"Related persons: Derek Parker (deceased), Athleen Parker (deceased), ..., Dalot Evans ... 30 victims, 1 perpetrator, 1 survivor, a total of 32 people.

"The relevant images are as follows:  …

"The relevant description is as follows: . . .

"This incident involved 30 ordinary people, 2 non-registered Beyonders from UU Kanshu www.uukanshu.com, unknown Sequence 7 serial killers, Sequence 8 trick masters..."

"The 30 victims were killed in sequence, 3 hours apart..."

"It can be preliminarily concluded that the main target of the perpetrator is Dalot Evans. In order to hunt Evans, the perpetrator killed the Parker family by sacrificing to create a 'imprisonment' enchantment."

"In this case, there is a sacrificial method that has not appeared in previous related cases. The effect is to seal the house, restore the victim's injuries, and there will be no obvious abnormality outside. Sealed Artifact 3-089 has no obvious effect. Induction, the contact distance must be less than or equal to 20 meters…

"After inspection, the gap between the victimization time of the victim Parker's family and the sacrifice time is...

"The way to destroy the ritual is as follows, for reference...

"Appendix: Records of interviews with survivors of the sacrificial ceremony and processing team members..."

"The ability to think is impaired, and the physical function is weakened. The degree of impact is proportional to inspiration and inversely proportional to the sequence level. The effect is significant, but the power is limited..."

"The solution. First of all, you need to destroy the ritual by dealing with the sacrificial people. You can't directly approach the sacrificial altar. You can use ritual magic to pray to the goddess..."

"Do you have anything to add?" Chris Sheehan, with black hair and black pupils wearing the uniform of the Loen Kingdom police officer, asked, looking at the young man in front of him.
