Chapter 443 The Tragedy of Early Termination
"Jealousy is really as strong as fire."
"Finbul, this kind of thing is not a new play created by the screenwriters in your theater, is it?"
"..."
“My theater is running great.”
"No matter how much we need a script, we won't attack our own actors."
Finbul, who returned to the theater, was chatting with Somra.
Thinking of Lili's crazy look just now.
The owner of the theater inevitably shook his head and lamented:
"Colorful Dream Potion, many people think it is a life-saving medicine to break through their bottlenecks - how stupid."
Somla was smiling.
As a high-ranking judge in blue robes, he had seen this situation countless times when he was working on the front line:
"Haha - many people just follow the crowd and are satisfied with superficial understanding."
"Painters are like painting, writers are like writing, sculptors are like sculptures, and even fishermen are like fishing."
"The research on abilities was not in-depth enough, and I saw other people indulging in the illusions they constructed in their dreams, so I felt that this was a shortcut to pursuing achievement."
Somra concluded scornfully:
"If you can't maintain a clear self in this torrent, you will be nothing more than a vulgar thing after all."
Finbul looked back at Yaoxing:
"Kid, did you hear that? These are golden words."
"Even if something is modern and popular, you can't be led by it."
"..."
"I see."
Yao Xing nodded in response, but his eyes were still a little diffuse.
She thought of Selena she saw today, and recalled Lili's resentment when she cursed herself.
Finbull continued:
"I know you are very dedicated to Selena. But the pursuit of skills is the most important thing. Don't go astray."
"My heart..." Yaoxing put his right hand on his chest, feeling his heartbeat.
There were no outsiders nearby.
She then changed her name to Finbull:
"Teacher, but I am still unwilling."
Finbul walked forward and rubbed Yao Xing's beautiful hair with his hands:
"What a stupid boy."
"If you can't see through this confusion, get in touch with her more intimately."
“As you become more familiar with things, you may be able to see them away.”
"..."
On the other side, Lindsay and the others were still in the theater.
The other drunken performers would not dare to touch the blue robe, and even those who had some reaction knew how to get out of the way.
Here they started questioning Miss Kuwait.
"Do you still remember how you left the library?"
"Picture album...Impression channel..."
"Who gave you the colorful dream potion?"
"I... don't remember. Coming out of the impression tunnel, I followed them, walked out of the theater, and then lost consciousness."
"So you have no idea what's going on?"
"That's right, sir."
"..."
At midnight.
Lindsay and Vala Vala left with Miss Kuwait.
The latter had just escaped from the effect of the Colorful Dream Potion and was somewhat in a daze. However, her better background allowed her to remain quite polite.
So when she walked out of the theater, she saluted Lindsay and the two of them:
"Both of you, thank you for your rescue."
"I'm Lina Kuwait, haven't you asked me your honorifics yet?"
"Lindsay." "Wala wala."
The subtle name usually makes people a little confused.
However, Lina was concerned, so she didn’t think too much about this issue, but asked directly:
"You said before that Anthony was also in the City of Thousand Sails?"
Lindsay replied:
"That's right."
"We came to the City of Thousand Sails by boat two days ago, and your lover happened to be on that boat."
Wala Wala added in agreement:
"And thanks to the love token you gave him."
"Otherwise, our crew will be left on Mermaid Island by the fallen artist!"
Mention love tokens.
Lina's cheeks turned red and she lowered her head slightly:
"We do..."
"Wait! Did you meet a degenerate artist? Anthony is not injured, right?"
Lindsay waved and comforted:
"Of course it's okay."
"Even because of the help of the Red Sea Kraken, we rescued the entire ship, and Anthony will be praised for it."
Lina immediately breathed a sigh of relief:
"As long as it's okay, it'll be okay."
The girl continued to ask:
"Where does Anthony live now?"
Lindsay replied:
"27 Merwin Street in the Purple District, a manor inside a painting space."
"That's where we're going now."
Wala Wala immediately put her head in and said:
"By the way, Lindsay and I live there too."
Next, it seemed that she was about to witness the realization of love, and Wala Wala was very excited.
She occasionally runs and jumps like a cheerful deer on the street, and sometimes giggles a few times.
Or stop and harmonize with the singer on the roadside, leaving the other person at a loss.
The night is getting darker.
The three of them returned to the manor in the painting.
Lindsay and Vala Vala took Lina directly to the door of Anthony's room.
Bang bang bang——
"Anthony?"
Lina stepped forward and knocked on the door, but there was no sound in the house.
"Anthony? Is it me?"
"Are not you at home?"
There was still no response in the room, so Lina looked at the two people beside her.
"..."
Lindsay frowned and opened the map. There was a green mark symbolizing a friendly unit.
Anthony is inside.
Even if the other party is dead asleep, it is impossible for him to remain unresponsive like this.
"Step aside!"
Lindsay realized something had changed.
He took a step forward, raised his right foot and kicked towards the door.
Just hearing a 'bang', the hinges of the door to the guest room were immediately smashed open by Lindsay's strange force, and the door panel fell towards the room.
The three rushed into the house.
As soon as he glanced around, he saw Anthony's figure.
The young man who had only cheered up after parting last night was now lying on the ground, unconscious, with a strange source of energy lingering around him.
"Anthony!?"
Lina shouted.
But Lindsay rushed over first, while Wala Wala tacitly hugged the girl to prevent her from getting close to her lover whose condition was unknown.
Lindsay opens [Puzzle Game]
[Human - The left hand has been implanted with corrosive insect larvae and is undergoing transformation into a beast. 】
"Left hand?"
Lindsay ripped open Anthony's sleeve.
On the opponent's arm, a red and black swollen sarcoma was growing upward along the blood vessels and skin, almost reaching the shoulder!
"Wala wala, what are erosion bugs?"
Wala Wala replied immediately:
"A strange insect that can invade and transform the human body, and then take over the consciousness!"
Lindsay asked:
"How to rescue someone who is parasitized?"
Wala Wala replied without thinking:
"There is no cure for complete parasitism, unless the cause and effect of time are reversed; if it is not completed yet, cut off the parasitic part!"
Lindsay hesitated no longer.
He raised the knife and dropped it, and Anthony's left arm was immediately cut off by him.
Sizzling——
The sarcoma that fell on the ground twisted and squirmed, as if something inside was about to burst out of the skin.
Boom!
Lindsay took out the mace and hit it hard.
When the arm was smashed flat, the flames that followed burned it into a puddle of ashes.
Double check it again.
The corrosive insects in the pus and blood of the severed limbs died cleanly.
The identification information on Anthony also changed from being parasitized to showing that his arm was mutilated.
At least this so-called parasitic crisis is gone.
Lindsay administered the medicine to Anthony and then breathed a sigh of relief:
"It's okay, I'm safe."
"Anthony!"
At this time, Wala Wala let go.
Lina rushed forward without thinking, held her lover's body in her arms, and began to cry uncontrollably.
"..."
Wala Wala walked to Lindsay and said in a serious tone:
"The erosion bug is a creature from a psychedelic dream. It once caused a commotion in the City of Thousand Sails."
Lindsay asked curiously:
"So this thing still exists to this day?"
"No one comes to take care of those powerful artists in the City of Thousand Sails?"
"They have been wiped out in the city a long time ago." Vala Vala shook her head in denial, and then expressed her thoughts, "This thing can still appear in the Seven Seas Alliance, it can only be because someone deliberately brought it out."
"..."
Lindsay fell silent.
He turned to look at Lina and Anthony.
After his arm was cut off, Anthony quickly regained consciousness and recognized Lina. The two hugged each other and cried.
The lovers looked mixed with joy and sorrow, but they finally saw each other.
There is joy after suffering.
But Lindsay was thinking about a different picture.
If he and Wala Wala hadn't interfered, or if they had lost their temper, they had faced off against the blue robe indifferently.
Then Anthony will continue to be corroded and parasitized in the manor, turning into a monster.
Lina would also have her emotions taken away from her, and eventually become addicted to the Colorful Dream Potion, rotting in an unknown corner of the City of Thousand Sails.
At that time, there was no need to worry about whether lovers would eventually get married.
It is even impossible for the two parties to meet each other, which is like a real tragedy that sinks to the end.
"..."
Lindsay's eyes naturally fell on the task bar.
There was only one task with no sign of completion; this text was still written coldly on it.
