Chapter 23

Pushing open the door of the execution room, Lucia saw the two classmates on the torture apparatus at first sight.

The most important thing is that neither of them are wearing clothes!

At this moment, Lucia almost used her double agility, and instantly covered Mistry's eyes: "You are not allowed to look!"

"Huh?" Mistry didn't understand what you were not allowed to see. He replied with a smile in his voice, "Okay, don't watch."

Lucia was still worried, and warned again: "I let go, but you must close your eyes."

"Okay." Mistry refused without any resistance.

Lucia lifted her hand up a little first, and found that Mistry had indeed closed his eyes, and then took off his hand with a sigh of relief: "You carry me over, I'll dress them first."

Mistry walked towards the torture tool without any hesitation.

"No, you don't look! Why do you know where it is!" Lucia immediately noticed something wrong, "Are you peeking!"

"I don't," Mistry explained. "I smell human."

Lucia stared suspiciously at Mistry, and finally reluctantly accepted his explanation, instructing Mistry to bring himself down to the side of the torture tool, and let him help untie the shackles of these people.

Then he immediately pushed Mistry, the tool man, to the corner to face the wall, and by the way threw out a few criminals who were kneeling on the ground begging for mercy.

The rest of the steps of getting dressed, Lucia struggled to finish by herself, and finally sat on the ground next to the torture tool, panting.

"Now that's how to take them away." Lucia thought frantically.

There are other fainted girls here, no matter how you think about it, it is impossible to move them all at once.

"Don't worry about that." Mistry walked to Lucia's side again, "Your brother is coming soon."

"My brother is here?" Lucia was shocked. She originally wanted to save herself, but she didn't expect Athos to come here.

"Well, maybe it was when you came down that you alerted him." Mistry said lightly.

Lucia understood the movement just now.

Although can't remember what happened to the original work of "The Difficulties of Women", the original Lucia was undoubtedly abducted when she was a child.

Then the tragedy happened.

Is it an escape now?

Lucia looked at Mistry: "Then I'll wait for my brother here, how about you?"

"I should be leaving soon," Mistry said.

"Why?" Lucia stared at Mistry, "Can't you stay?"

"Sorry, although I really want to stay with you, but this body... is really crowded." Mistry moved his neck and said troubledly, "In response to your wish, I invested some strength. Exceeded, exceeded the tolerance limit of the magic circle,"

"Even if your brother doesn't come, after I take you out of here, this body will collapse soon."

"Oh." Lucia was a little frustrated, "What a pity."

"You stay here, I'm out." Mistry said lightly.

Just breathed a sigh of relief, Lucia, who was overwhelmed with exhaustion, suddenly regained her spirits, and sat up in shock from her dying illness: "Why?!"

"This body is made of blood, and you don't seem to like that," Mistry replied. "I'll leave somewhere else."

"No!" Lucia refused.

"?" Mistry raised his eyebrows and emphasized again, "This body will turn into blood."

"Let me watch you leave, okay?" Lucia pleadingly looked at Mistry, "Stay a little longer."

"Aren't you afraid?" Mistry asked.

"Scared." Lucia's voice became smaller, "but I want to be with you for a while."

Mistry was startled and looked at Lucia's pitiful blue eyes.

She looks so embarrassed, her little face is all scratched, her blond hair is messy, it's all mud and pebbles. oozing blood.

Like a poor kitten.

Mistry thought of this adjective inadvertently. He had seen this adjective written by humans, but it seemed that it was at this moment that he really understood what it meant.

Mistry sat beside Lucia and sighed: "Of course, how can I refuse you, brave little lady."

Lucia let out a pitiful grunt and leaned on Mistry carefully. After finding that Mistry did not refuse, she had to put all her weight on it.

Mistry laughed, stretched out his hand and gently smoothed Lucia's hair, taking off the stones and dirt on it.

"But Miss Lucia is really good this time."

"Uh-huh?"

"It's really beautiful, gentle, and brave." Mistry said the first sentence, and found that Lucia's mouth twitched.

"On this journey, I was really worried, for fear that Miss Lucia would encounter any danger. I didn't expect that every time, you would be able to save yourself from danger!"

"Hey!" Lucia couldn't help but feel proud.

Mistry touted the combination of punches, making Lucia laugh non-stop, and finally fell on his lap tired from laughing.

"I don't want my brother to come too soon." Lucia said softly.

"Yeah." Mistry gently stroked Lucia's little head.

"But it doesn't matter, it's good to win." Lucia stretched out her hand, "Yeah!"

"Yeah?" Mistry didn't understand what Lucia wanted to do.

"This is a celebration, high-five to celebrate." Lucia frowned, "Hello."

"So?" Mistry put his hand against Lucia's.

The small palm was extremely soft, like a small ball of fluffy cotton, and Mistry felt that with a little force, she might crush the small hand.

"Congratulations, Miss Lucia."

"Yeah." Lucia smiled happily.

"But how will I explain it later?" Lucia had new troubles.

"Can't you tell the truth?" Mistry asked.

"Then how can I explain my serenity!" Lucia said angrily, "I haven't learned anything yet. Do you want me to say that I'm chatting with God online every day?"

Mistry looked at those big eyes and blinked tiredly. He looked very sleepy, but he still tried to stay awake.

He reached out and covered Lucia's eyes lightly.

"Don't be afraid, I will always be by your side." Mistry comforted gently, "Go to sleep, dear boy."

"I'm not sleepy yet." Lucia protested in a low voice.

"I know, I know." Mistry said gently, "Dear Miss Lucia."

Lucia had been holding on, but at this time, she finally couldn't bear it any longer, and slowly fell asleep.

When Athos ran all the way to come here, only to see his sister wrapped in a black cloak, lying quietly on the ground and falling asleep.

Even though he couldn't wait to rush over, Athos still used his ability to confirm whether it was Lucia in front of him, just to be on the safe side.

Lucia Farr

Health: 13/105

Basic Attribute Scores: Str 5; Dex 7; Con 5; Intelligence 14; Wis 14; Charisma 16

Athos: ? ? ?

In this short period of time, what happened?

Not to mention that the strength and agility attributes have been upgraded, and that the person who climbs the love of God has been upgraded, how did this sudden seance come about?

Filled with doubts, he almost rushed out, but Athos chose to rush over and hug Lucia.

Just seeing Lucia, Athos's heart throbbed.

She was wrapped in a black men's cloak, showing only half of her face.

Just the exposed part, you can see a lot of scratches, as well as small wood thorns piercing the skin, leaving blood spots.

Not sure how many wounds there are elsewhere.

Athos couldn't help but move lighter, and he wanted to take Lucia out of here immediately so that she could rest at home.

But it can't be like this, because there will definitely be a review of the temple next to confirm that these kidnapped children are not abnormal.

Before everyone came, Athos quickly took off the black cloak on Lucia and threw it into the brazier that was still burning beside him.

I don't know what material the black cloak is made of. It burned quickly when it hit the flames and disappeared into the brazier, leaving no trace.

Lucia was still wearing the little skirt from before, but now it has several holes in it.

Without the black cloak wrapped around, Lucia looked a little cold, trying to shrink herself into Athos' arms, Athos hurriedly took off his coat and put it on her.

"There are three more children here!" The voice of the guardian of the temple came from behind.

Several temple guardians also walked in, followed by Ms. Luisa, who was completely relieved when she saw the remaining three children.

"That's it, thanks to the goddess, all the children have been found safely." Luisa gently touched Lucia's hair, "The children are still in a coma, take them out first."

"Well." Athos hugged Lucia, "I took Lucia with me."

"Of course." Louisa said sympathetically, "Poor child, something terrible must have happened."

Athos smiled reluctantly and returned to the ground with the others.

The priests were already waiting here, and the group hurried to the treatment room. After a preliminary diagnosis, most of the children were intact except for scratches.

"Lucia has a lot of abrasions on her body, mainly her right calf is broken." Luisa explained to Athos, "Her calf needs some treatment, so just leave her here for a few days."

Athos was reluctant, but he knew it was just a high-sounding claim, and in fact, they had Lucia here for observation.

The situation here, at first glance, is that a blasphemous and evil assembly is being held. Anyone who has come into contact with such an assembly will be quarantined and reviewed, and they will be released after confirming that there are no problems.

Athos had done this before, and he knew it was perfectly in line with the rules of conduct and to protect everyone.

But he still did extra stuff.

It was the cloak on Lucia's body.

Although he was very anxious along the way, Athos's nature still allowed him to carefully observe the surrounding enemies. Some of them fell into a coma, and some of them were already crazy.

But no matter who is wearing a black cloak, most of the people here seem to be the poorest people at the bottom, which is incompatible with that elegant cloak.

So, who is this black cloak? Why on Lucia?

Athos is full of doubts. If this is the case he is responsible for, then Lucia must be the key suspect, and he will pursue this line without hesitation.

But this is his sister.

So the first time he saw Lucia, Athos burned the cloak on Lucia, just to prevent others from doubting Lucia.

Now Athos only hopes that Lucia can be as smart as in the past and know exactly how to answer.

No matter what happened inside, everything is over now, he just hopes to go back to the past, and the family lives together in peace.

He chose to be an older brother rather than a qualified patrolman.
