Mistbound Chronicles: Lumian's Legacy Novel Chapter 75

Outside the administrator's residence, a building transformed from a castle, Lumian walked through the garden, came to the door, and stood guard.

The valet there said: "I have something to see Mrs. Poialis."

The male servant wearing a red shirt and white trousers looked him up and down and asked cautiously: "What's going on?"

This kid is not here to play a prank, is he? Then I should be the target? , Lumian said "ha": "You can't know this."

Why do you, a servant, take care of so many Lei Yings? What's your surname, what's your name, and have you given birth to a child?

The manservant hesitated for a moment and decided to report to his wife and let her decide whether to see this boy or not.

Lumian stood. Waited at the door for a while. Minutes later, I saw the manservant coming back and said to him: "Madam asked you to go to the small hall."

Lumian was no stranger to that small living room. The few times he followed his sister to Mo Castle, they were all there.

Accepting the hospitality, he walked to the correct room without guidance, and the manservant became his "follower".

After sitting on the seven-seater sofa in the small living room, drinking black tea and waiting for a while, Lumian saw Mrs. Pualis appear at the door.

The lady wore an exquisite black long skirt with a waist, a shawl of the same color draped over her shoulders, a slightly crooked women's round hat, and a diamond necklace set with gold on her chest.

Lumian looked a little familiar, and after thinking about it carefully, he realized that this was the dress he wore when Mrs. Pualis visited his home to "seduce" him during the last time the device was cycled.

"Good morning. Mrs. Pualis."

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly realized that the person following Mrs. Pualis was not Cathy, the personal maid, but the "midwife" who died in his hands yesterday.

The "midwife" was wearing a long gray dress, her eyes were blank, her face was expressionless, and her complexion was slightly bluish. She was exactly the same as the one Lumian saw in the garden yesterday evening, except that she didn't have the pruning tools.

Instead of a maid or a "midwife"? On purpose? Lumian couldn't help but muttered in his heart again.

Mrs. Pualis smiled slightly and said: "It should be noon now."

She immediately reached the single sofa representing the owner and the "midwife" stood on the side.

"It's not lunch if you haven't had lunch." Lumian defended forcefully.

At the same time, his heart beat a little faster, and he suspected that Mrs. Pualis brought the midwife out to question what happened yesterday.

If this is not handled well, Liya and the three strangers can restart the cycle in time, and Lumian doubts that he will be a father for even a minute."

Mrs. Pualis glanced at him, her bright eyes like swaying lake water, with an indescribable smile.

The lady then asked, "What's the matter?"

Lumian decided to be more direct. He said seriously: "Madam, you should have noticed that we are trapped in a time loop."

As he spoke, he kept his eyes on Mrs. Poialis's face, paying attention to her expression.

If the other party showed surprise, astonishment, doubt, etc., he would immediately add words such as "Haha, just kidding", and then start with some abnormalities to see what the lady's attitude and tendencies are, and finally consider whether to Tell her something new about the time loop.

Of course, if Mrs. Pualis had an expression on her face that said, "You actually found out that my secret was leaked by mistake," then he would have to try to escape quickly.

Although there was little hope of escaping in that situation, how would you know if there was hope if you didn't try?

Mrs. Pualis held Lumian for a few seconds, smiled and said:

"Looks like you've found a boss, too."

She was not surprised by the idea of a time loop, and her expression of confusion and confusion was equivalent to acknowledging that she knew what was going on with the current machine.

boss? This is the usage that Aurore likes in the book. Now it means the being who gives the gift?

Lumian interpreted Mrs. Pualis's words in his mind.

Lumian immediately laughed and pretended to be relieved! The tone of his voice: "It seems that I don't need to spend a lot of time explaining it. Time will come."

"What on earth do you want to say?" Pualis asked with a smile.

The "midwife" stood beside her, as motionless as a statue.

Lumian had already prepared his inscription, and hurriedly began to express his words: "People outside already know about the abnormality of Cole Society. If we can't break the cycle in time, this place will definitely be completely destroyed. Everyone will All will die. "

"We are all in the same boat. Only by gathering all our strength can we prevent the boat from sinking, and only then can we hope to find the key to the cycle and return to normal life."

"Ma'am, we don't have much time left. Let's cooperate."

Mrs. Pualis listened with a faint smile from beginning to end and did not interrupt Lumian's story.

At this time, she chuckled.

"Who told you we were on the same boat?"

ah? Are you the one who wants to sink the ship? Lumian was shocked.

Mrs. Pualis kept the smile she had just now and continued: "Why should I cooperate with you? I can leave here at a certain time."

Lumian was stunned and a little ecstatic: "You mean, there is a way to escape from this time loop? You only need to wait until a specific time point to do something?"

Mrs. Pualis nodded slightly, picked up the white glazed porcelain killing cup and took a sip without making any additional answer.

It's good to have a hidden existence to protect her. Wait, this isn't the first time the cycle has happened. Why is she still there?

Could it be that the previous few loops restarted before reaching a specific person's time point? Well, this can be very useful. Haolu explained why she didn't pursue the matter of us sneaking into the castle and killing the "midwife". She was worried that trouble with the three official extraordinary people would cause one of them to forcibly touch the key and restart the cycle. Lumian instantly figured out some of his previous doubts.

He suspected that Mrs. Poialis was also waiting for the second night.

While his thoughts were swirling, Lumian smiled: "I wonder, madam, if you can take me and Aurore Scarf out of the loop? What kind of official investigator? I don't know him!"

Mrs. Pualis was kind of nice and looked him up and down with a smile: "Why should I help you?"

"You said" Lumian stopped without speaking.

He originally thought about the love-related words that Mrs. Tipu Alis said, hoping that the other party would be soft-hearted and save Aurore and himself, but because the target of the lady was probably his sister, he really couldn't say it.

If the beauty that Mrs. Pualis fell in love with was herself, a shameless person like Lumian must have played the love card and dedicated her body to the other party's song child to be a father.

Well, even if he had to give birth himself, he would grit his teeth and endure it, as long as Mrs. Pualis took him and Aurore out of this cycle.

"Are you trying to say that love is hard to understand? You obviously want her to die because she made a mistake, but you still can't help but save her?"

Lumian did not answer. He heard that the personal pronoun used by Mrs. Pualis was "she".

Mrs. Pualis didn't expect him to respond. She sighed quietly and said, "But what if I can't be saved?"

Unable to save Lumian, his heart sank slowly, as if he had been thrown into an icy lake at the beginning of the season.

After adjusting his breathing, he asked confirmingly: "What you mean is that at that time or point, you can only leave by yourself. Specific Kai 8 people, but not including me and Aurore?"

Mrs. Pualis nodded gently: "That's understandable."

It seems that you still have to rely on yourself! Lumian sighed secretly and forcibly gathered his mood.

The experience of having hopes appear and be dashed in an instant is indeed not a pleasant experience.

He thought for a moment, raised the corners of his mouth, and said with a smile: "Madam, the three foreigners and I will explore the underground of the church later. By then, if there is an accident or something happens, the cycle may be restarted in advance. , not even Lent."

Not to mention the second night.

Mrs. Pualis narrowed her eyes slightly and raised her chin slowly: "Are you threatening me?"

"No, I'm just reminding you." Lumian smiled "very sincerely, in a very relaxed state."

This is a camp on the surface, but the actual situation is that he is full of uneasiness in his heart. He is worried that Mrs. Pualis will be completely angered by this, and he will have to stay in this castle to give birth to the child. And a quarter of an hour later, the three official investigators can't wait. The cycle won't be restarted until the amount comes out.

Mrs. Pualis stared at Lumian's eyes and saw that he never showed any signs of flinching or dodging for several seconds.

He suddenly smiled and said, "You are really a thick person. It would feel good for both you and your sister to become my lovers."

Without waiting for Lumian to respond, she turned her head and looked at the midwife:

"You ruined me as a 'warlock'. I didn't hold you accountable. I was merciful enough. You actually expect me to help?"

"Warlock"? Lumian memorized the term and said sincerely: "It's not about helping, it's about doing something that is beneficial to everyone."

Mrs. Pualis was silent for a second, then smiled again: "I will not explore the underground of the church with you, but for the sake of Aurore's face and your courage, if something happens, I will provide some information according to the situation. help."

Lumian was very satisfied to be able to reach this level. He stood up and looked at the gentleman's posture in the scholar's sister's book. He pressed his hand on his chest and saluted: "Praise you, my lady."

Mrs. Pualis smiled and said: "Shouldn't it be 'my sun?' What he was referring to was the phrase 'Madam, you are my sun' that Lumian said in the upper cycle. talk.

Lumian was a little embarrassed immediately, and because he was always shameless, he pretended not to hear and left the small living room directly.

Went down to the castle. After entering the village of Kolshe, Lumian saw Liya, Ryan and Valentine approaching the police.

"How is it?" Liya asked with a smile.

Lumian recounted the key points of the conversation between himself and Mrs. Pualis, and finally said: "This is already the best result of the question."

"Yes, the most dangerous thing is, you can still expect someone to help." Ryan nodded.

Lumian asked instead: "Have you received a call back?"

Before he went to the castle, Ryan had already reported to Kamirumi that Mrs. Pualis was not a real member of the Roquefort family and that there were photos of Pritt in the room.

Liya breathed out and answered for Ryan: "It reminds us to consider the possibility that Plit turned into a woman through the use of some kind of magic potion or some kind of power."

"Sure enough." Lumian said "hmm" and asked about Xinjiang's next weapon plan, "When will we go to the church underground?"

Ryan gave a good warning and said in a deep voice: "Now".
