Chapter 191 The Second Living Sacrifice
Laurence's son Danny is preparing to leave Geveau.
Clayton looked at the heavy package behind him and saw what he was thinking.
He seemed to no longer consider being with others, but just wanted to leave here, as if someone wanted his life.
Clayton thought he was right.
"Are you going to leave?"
"This has nothing to do with you, does it?"
Clayton was not angry. This was his last pity for Danny: "There is no horse in the town. How are you going to Sasha City on your own two legs?"
"I'm rowing downstream, not to your city. Now get out of my way!"
Danny gradually became irritable. He looked back at his home with scruples. The doors and windows were closed, the curtains were drawn, and there was no one nearby. So he turned around and shouted in a low voice: "What does this have to do with you?" relation?"
Julius whistled at him frivolously: "Don't be nervous, we are not looking for you this time, but one of your friends asked us to deliver a message to you."
Danny looked at them suspiciously.
"You? Are the three of you here to spread the news?"
"Adelaide Lux wants to see you. Do you know where she is?" Clayton said.
The young man's face turned from white to red, and he glared at Clayton: "Stop joking! Are you looking for trouble? Everyone knows that she has gone to the city! How could she want to see me?"
He tried to look angry, but everyone could tell he was scared.
"I'm serious, she's waiting for you right where you last met."
Danny didn't listen anymore. He quickly threw off the bag on his back and ran past them desperately.
Julius raised his hands and made a triangular frame to knock his back into. The next moment, Danny fell to the ground and fell into a coma.
"In the end we still have to do it ourselves." The wizard sighed.
Two men lifted the body up and carried it out of the town on a path that no one could see.
Donna was already feeling nervous about being in the company of criminals. She followed behind and kept rubbing her hands: "I think there is something Adelaide is not telling us."
Clayton freed a hand to cover the top of her head and rubbed it vigorously: "If you don't like her, you can go to Barbara's house and sit for a while. We will come back and tell you the result after we have finished negotiating with her."
It took Donna some time to stand firm under his hand: "No, no need. Let's follow. No matter what, I also want to see the follow-up with my own eyes."
Clayton's yellow wolf eyes shrank slightly, but he did not refuse.
When Danny woke up, he was already at the river.
Creighton threw him mercilessly on the wet river beach, leaving him covered in mud.
He got up and was about to get angry when a beautiful song came from the river. The singer's voice came from someone he knew well.
The melody in the water is melodious, and the lyrics are a tragic story about a girl and her lover who drowned together in the river because of the opposition of the two families.
As the singing became louder and louder, the ripples on the water surface were rippling violently, and countless ripples were bursting out. It seems that the audience of this song is not only humans, but also the fish in the water are touched by the story in the song.
Both Uncle Bellus and the wizard felt an inexplicable urge to walk towards the center of the river.
Clayton quickly broke away from this feeling, grabbed the other two and kept retreating.
As for Danny, this young man was standing by the river, indifferent to this display of supernatural power. He just looked at the empty space in front of him like a delirium, with expressions on his face, and kept talking, just like the girl who was thinking in his heart. Standing on the opposite side, he stepped forward, and the water had already covered the instep of his feet.
However, everyone could see clearly that Adelaide's true body was still under the water, and only her head was floating on the surface, which was still at least ten yards away from Danny.
The water fairy's solid lake-green eyes stared at Danny, like a dead body longing for the soul.
"Adelaide, my beloved girl, if I knew you were still alive, I would never want to leave here under any circumstances." The young man opened his arms and embraced the empty place in front of him, although He encountered nothing, but the sweet look on his face showed that this was not the hallucination he had seen.
Donna pointed her right index finger at the water nymph. Clayton did not stop her and always stood behind her.
Adelaide noticed the arrival of the "helpers", and the witch's dissatisfaction also fell into her eyes.
When she spoke to Danny, her voice was ethereal and full of emotion, which was simply out of place compared to her current appearance and temperament.
"What about Sevan? Are we going to abandon him? Or are you just going to walk away?"
Hearing Sevan's name, Clayton pressed Donna's hand down.
Regarding the outcome of Priest Louis' son, he had already made a guess in his mind, but he had always thought it was unimportant, so he kept silent.
After Adelaide mentioned the name of his old friend, Danny's voice immediately became panicked: "Then it was an accident! I never thought such a thing would happen. It has nothing to do with us, and he is gone. , the body was also taken away by the monster, how can we find him? He can't come back!"
"We have plenty of time to find him. The people from the church will no longer come. We can take him back to the town and use other reasons instead. No one will know that you killed him."
"I didn't kill him! It was an accident!"
Even in his hallucination, Danny was still very insistent on this matter.
Donna looked back at Clayton. She couldn't tell the current situation at all. She couldn't tell who the enemy was based on her experience.
But Clayton just motioned for her to keep looking.
He believes Adelaide needs guests to witness this.
"Really? Then it must be an accident that I become like this."
Adelaide Lux no longer continued to use witchcraft to influence Danny. She dispelled the illusion and exposed her true body to Danny, making this old friend's legs bend and collapse, and he collapsed on the river beach. .
She was still beautiful, but clearly no longer human.
The purple handprints on her slender neck also proved that she had died once.
"Adelaide, you. What's wrong with you? How did you become like this?!" Danny propped up his body with both hands. He did not stand up, but knelt down in front of Adelaide, in disbelief. Gazing at that alienated face.
If you had to use one word to describe him now, it would be "desperate".
"Interesting, I thought you shouldn't forget the time when you put your hands around my neck. This opportunity doesn't come often." The water fairy calmly narrated the cause of her death. Her body was raised a little above the water, and then she said to Then he lifted up his long hair to make the fatal traces clearer.
"I might even want to thank you. If you hadn't thrown me into the river later, I might have died as worthless as a mortal."
What both Donna and Julius had suspected before was now confirmed.
Adelaide Lux was killed and thrown into the water. She was not a kind-hearted water nymph, but a banshee, but no one could judge her yet.
"I can't remember clearly. Did I really do this?" Tears flowed from the corners of Danny's eyes unconsciously. He stretched out his hands to Adelaide, trying to compare the handprint, but it looked more like He wanted to strangle her to death again from afar.
"Of course you did it. If you still have a conscience, just repent to this shell."
Adelaide swam to the shore, his upper body almost lying on the river beach, only slightly submerged by the water. Then she stretched out her hand from the water, and a crystal conch with a sound was lying in her palm - this kind of witchcraft and magic object is rare in Gevaux. There is no doubt that she was the one who caused the wolf howl in the center of the town. .
Clayton had no intention of liquidating her. Rather, this method of creating a trap made him instinctively excited and gave him some admiration.
His wolf eyes were fixed on Danny, and the young man also walked towards the water.
Danny staggered a few steps in the river and took the conch from Adelaide's hand. He put the conch to his mouth, but hesitated not knowing what to say.
"You just need to repent." An encouraging smile appeared on the face of the Water Fairy.
However, the jeweler's son didn't care what he had to say. He just looked at her dreamingly:
"Can we be together again in the future? I don't mind how you are now."
The fairy's smile became sweeter and sweeter: "Me too. As long as you are willing to repent of your sins, I think Sevan will definitely forgive us, and maybe we can get his blessing."
This possibility moved Danny. He made up his mind, lowered his head and spoke to the conch: "I hereby sincerely repent, and I regret the crime of killing my best friend Sevan and my beloved Adelaide. In the presence of my Heavenly Father, Under the witness, I pray for their understanding. Hahaha——"
He had just finished reciting his crime when a pair of lips that should have been small and exquisite tore open on his neck. Countless fine fangs were immersed in the flesh and blood directly to the roots, tearing open the trachea and arteries. Scarlet blood flowed from Danny's neck. The wound spurted outward for nearly twelve yards, reaching Donna's feet, causing her to take two steps back in shock.
As the tide hit, the blood stains disappeared.
Danny was held in Adelaide's arms, his trachea screamed and pink blood bubbles gushed out, and the conch in his hand still shone with the aura of witchcraft.
Recording his death cries was obviously Adelaide's main purpose.
She only bit Danny once and then let go. Then she dived into the deep water in one breath. Danny's body struggled a few times on the surface before being dragged and sank to the bottom.
As Danny's body sank, a few wisps of dark red floated in the Nidalee River, which was not originally clear.
Adelaide is drawing strength from this murder.
The meaning of revenge in the occult is the symbolic meaning of getting everything back. After killing Danny, she can do it whether she changes her identity to become a good fairy or enhances her existing power.
