Chapter 264 Escape The branches and vines that were chasing Lumian were instantly retracted, and the javelin-like tree trunk fell down and disappeared. Lumian exhaled, raised his body while running, and looked up. He just happened to see Susanna Matisse and the plant ball surrounding her being burned to ashes, and saw a tree trunk that did not belong to a newly grown tree broken by the burning and fell not far away. Finished! Lumian was relieved and no longer tried to hold on, falling to the ground. The red flames burning him went out, revealing his charred body that was almost unrecognizable. Lumian struggled to sit up, leaning against the wall of the Golden Rooster Inn, which had many vines and branches left. Like a tramp abandoned by the world, he watched with a little mockery as the "Shadow Tree" suddenly sank further down, getting deeper and deeper. He also saw the vines and branches all retracted into the main trunk, and saw the suspended people loosen their restraints and fall to the ground from high or low positions. Among the first dozen people whose essence was sucked away, three or four were suspended in the air nearly three meters high. They had already become very weak, and after falling so heavily, they all lost most of their lives and passed out on the spot. Maybe they could still be saved, or maybe they couldn't. Hundreds of people who were suspended in a lower position and had not yet absorbed too much energy suffered more or less injuries, but none of them affected their lives, or even their efforts to get up in a hurry and rush to the edge of the wilderness. Gabriel's face turned pale, his hands and feet were all scratched, and his first reaction was not to flee from here, but to bend down and pick up the scattered script of "Light Chasers"; the eloped couple who were suspended together scolded each other for being a burden while supporting each other with a little inconvenience in their legs and feet due to the fall, and followed the crowd and swarmed into the distance; Pavard Neeson, the owner of the underground bar, was not injured except that he was weak, he ran with the draft he had just drawn...

Lumian, his body burnt, sat on the street, with his back against the Golden Rooster Inn, which was very close to the Shadow Tree. He leaned his head against the wall, smiling slightly as he watched the vendors, pedestrians, and tenants of cheap apartments flee to the edge of the wilderness. ………… Inside the "Shadow Tree", "Ms. Moon" saw that many angels and saints had been involved in the battle, and her side was becoming increasingly exhausted with the successive reinforcements from the two major churches and the Eighth Bureau. She suddenly felt like retreating. If this continues, the two major churches might ask God to descend in different ways! "Ms. Yue" quickly made up her mind. Having been deprived of several abilities and trapped in various "prohibitions", she opened her mouth while pressing the bulge on her abdomen. An extremely shrill scream erupted in this alien space, and the "Shadow Tree" with a trunk nearly two meters high on the ground changed instantly. Located on different branches and barks, in the past scenes wrapped in a thin mist, those figures formed by different desires and now completely dead all came back to life, except for Emperor Roselle. There are many demigods among them who walked out of their respective "history" with numb and indifferent expressions and a cold and gloomy aura. "resurrection"! With the help of the "divine fetus" in her belly and the special power of the "Shadow Tree", "Ms. Moon" temporarily resurrected the latter's desires that had accumulated for more than a thousand years into their original appearance. Although this cannot last long, and the strength of the resurrected will be obviously not as good as before, but in just a few seconds, the addition of a large number of demigods to help fight can still effectively affect the situation and bring extreme chaos. It was precisely because of the "divine fetus" that could provide help at the critical moment that "Ms. Yue" dared to follow in here and participate in this melee. Otherwise, she, who had only promised to provide cover and interception, would have given up on the people of the "Supreme Bliss Society" and left this neighborhood on her own. Silently, those resurrected phantoms quickly melted away under the scorching sun, and "Ms. Moon" seized this opportunity to take back the less damaged part of the other side of the world, merged with it, and disappeared on the spot. ………… Market Avenue, in the khaki four-story building where the members of Congress reside. The mixed-race Imre did not immediately question Janna about the assassin, but asked two agents from the Seventh Bureau to do simple disinfection and bandaging on Janna to stop the bleeding. He showed an attitude that the criminal must not be seriously injured or killed in order to get more clues. Valentine, Antoine and other agents observed and questioned other people participating in the banquet one by one, including Cassandra, Rhone and other members of G. Artois' team. Rumble! There was another tremor underground, and people near the windows saw that Luan Street, Nightingale Street and White Coat Street each had a corner exposed, with flashes of light from time to time, and many clergymen wearing white robes inlaid with gold thread and holding various machines were approaching around. This slowed down the interrogation of Imre, Valentine and others. After a while, Angouleme de François, wearing a coat with gold buttons, walked into the banquet hall with the gray and white humanoid mechanical creature, several other team members and a large number of police officers. After listening to Imre's report, he looked around, glanced at Janna, and then said to Travis Everett: “Bring all the people who attended the banquet to the headquarters and question them separately. "The assassin will stay here, and we will be responsible for tracking him down. Um... the members of Mr. Congressman's team will also stay here. There are some situations that we need to understand."

Everett did not object and organized the police officers to lead the people who were both frightened and watching the excitement away from the ochre building where the congressman's office was located. When the hall became empty, Angouleme instructed the two agents of the Seventh Bureau standing next to Janna: "Take the assassin to the lounge. Don't let her hear our conversation, or she might use it to conceal part of the truth." After watching Janna being taken into the lounge facing the street behind, Angouleme walked in front of Cassandra, Rona and others and said in a deep voice: "Ladies and gentlemen, there are some situations that we must understand." At this point, a smile appeared on his face: "By the way, the congressman is dead, and according to the law, he immediately lost his seat. “That is to say, you are no longer members of the congressman’s team and no longer enjoy the necessary exemptions. “So, let’s get it notarized first and then communicate.” After hearing Angouleme's words, Cassandra and the others' expressions changed at the same time. In the lounge, Janna, whose mind had been calm after assassinating Hugues Artois, heard a loud noise coming from the direction of the hall. One of the two Seventh Bureau agents guarding her with guns ran to the door to see what was going on. Janna's heart skipped a beat when she found that there was only one security guard left by her side, and suddenly she had an idea. Her expression suddenly changed, and she looked behind the guard with surprise and fear. Although the agent had received rigorous training, it was precisely because of this that he knew some things that ordinary people did not know. Today, an unusual case occurred in the chaotic street area, and the congressman was assassinated. Now, there was a battle in the hall that was suspected to involve supernatural powers. How could he not worry that the lounge would be affected and that something might happen behind him? He subconsciously wanted to turn around, but when he was halfway around, he became alert. But for Jana, that was enough. She had been handcuffed for a long time, so she clenched her fists and smashed them hard on the agent's shoulders and neck, causing him to fall to the ground and the pistol to slip out of her control. Without waiting for the agent at the door to react, Janna put her hands on the windowsill, jumped up, broke through the glass, and landed like a feather in the alley behind. Then, she endured the pain from the gunshot wound, hid in the shadow of the corner, and quickly left the ochre building. ………… "Ms. Moon" changed directions repeatedly and used several abilities before finally walking out of the "other world". At this time, she had fled to the Erato district northwest of Trier. In front of her was a magnificent building with several spires and a lot of gold paint. "Ms. Yue" carefully confirmed the surrounding situation again and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. If it weren't for the fact that the evil tree burrowing deeper into Trier in the Quaternary Epoch was good for the Great Mother, she would actually be unwilling to participate in the actions of the Blissful Society and would not want to expose herself. You know, those who control their desires are often controlled by their desires, and the possibility of failure is not low. The next second, "Ms. Moon" entered the beige building from the side. A few hundred meters away, a big golden retriever was squatting quietly next to a woman in a green dress. They silently watched every move of "Ms. Moon" and the magnificent building with many spires, their expressions somewhat solemn. That is the Monastery of the Sacred Heart, the Monastery of the Sacred Heart of the Church of the Eternal Sun. ………… In the wilderness that began to collapse but did not affect the buildings of Luan Street, Nightingale Street, and White Coat Street, Lumian saw that the "Shadow Tree" had almost completely shrunk into the ground, and he laughed at Thermiporos:

"I'm not that unlucky, but I succeeded." As soon as he finished speaking, Franka, who had regained her clarity and rationality, ran over and said with a hiss: “Is this playing a charred corpse?” As she spoke, she took out the healing potion she got from the Sting Gang and planned to give Lumian half a bottle first. Lumian's injuries were not as serious as they looked. The burns that were fatal to most low- and mid-sequence Beyonders would only require the "arsonist" to lie down for a month or two at most. The injuries from fractures, explosions, and collisions would not kill the "hunter" immediately. As long as he could make it to tomorrow, he would recover naturally. Considering that he might have to face the pursuit of official Beyonders after the wilderness completely disappeared, Lumian did not try to be brave and drank half the bottle. Soon, he felt his body recovering rapidly. At this time, the wilderness was about to collapse completely. The streets returned to their original positions and many people had rushed in. Franka observed the environment and spoke quickly: "Can we move? We need to get out of here." "Okay." Lumian stood up. He then took two steps sideways, intending to pick up the short trunk that had been burned from the "Shadow Tree" before leaving. Just as Lumian grasped the tree trunk, he suddenly saw something out of the corner of his eye: In the depression left after the "Shadow Tree" sank back into the ground, a blurry and transparent creature flashed by. Lumian's pupils suddenly dilated, as if he couldn't believe what he was seeing and wanted to see it more clearly. It was a transparent, blurry lizard-like figure! It was exactly the same as the "elf" he saw in his dream! That's the kind of monster that came out of Aurora's mouth! (End of this chapter)
