Chapter 680 Last Year's "Dream Festival" Amandine hesitated for a few seconds and said: "I've been blocked by you guys, what choice do I have?" As she said this, Amandine's eyes sparkled with inexplicable excitement and curiosity. This made her previous words sound more like: I don't want to go to Saint-Sien's Church. You forced me to go! Let's go! Are you trying to broaden your horizons? Lumian muttered to himself, but didn't say anything. He pointed to the house of "Xi Suo" and said: "Let's check this place out before we go to St. Sean's Church." Amandine said, "Oh!" “Are you trying to find the source of this special place? "Give up. I checked both the last Dream Festival and just now, and found nothing."
As she spoke, she followed Lumian at a brisk pace, somewhat expecting what this seemingly formidable adventurer would discover. Lumian arrived at the second floor of "Ciso"'s house, where Camus and Ria had returned and were waiting. Looking around every corner, Lumian casually asked Amandine: “Are you familiar with Tewanaku?” Amandina was not surprised to be asked about this matter. Since she wanted to find the source of the anomaly in Tewanaku's residence, she could not avoid knowing more about Tewanaku's situation. She shook her head and said: “Not familiar, only encountered it once or twice. "When he lived in Tizamo, I was just a child, and spent most of my time studying at the Iris Grammar School in Porto Paros. Later, he only came back to Tizamo two or three times a year, each time for about a week." It can be seen that Amandine secretly knew about Tewanaku. After all, she entered the special dream because she slept in his house, and then she remained completely awake during the "Dream Festival". Before Lumien could ask a new question, Amandine glanced at him and added: “Every year during the ‘Dream Festival’, Tewanaco comes back. "Last year during the Dream Festival, when Robert and I were returning from that huge black stone, we found someone approaching that direction as well. We hid behind the giant trees on both sides of the path and saw that the person was Tewanaco." Tewanaco is indeed connected to the black boulder. There is even a trace of his figure or a trace of the marks left by extreme emotions and desires... Lumien turned his head to look at Camus, who was watching him and Amandine walking in circles on the second floor. He thought for a moment and said: "When did this house in Tehuanaco burn down and all the family members died? In what month and period did it happen?" Without waiting for Camus to answer, Amandine said excitedly: "I know I know!" Yes, I'm asking you. Do you think I don't know when Tewanaco became a time traveler? Lumian smiled at Amandine and motioned for her to answer. He had a very clear and detailed understanding of what was happening in Tewanaku, and he had deliberately asked Camus the question just now in order to elicit Amandine's answer. He wanted to see if the other party was lying and whether he had any further information. Amandine said with great pride: "It's late December, probably a few days after the 'Dream Festival'." According to current understanding, the Tewanaco family should have all died during the "Dream Festival". After returning to reality, their fate began to come to an end and they were taken away by fire. The question is, why did this house have anomalies? What happened to the Tewanaco family at that time, or what did they do? As a gifter of the fate field, Lumian found a very fateful word to summarize the phenomenon that those who died in the "Dream Festival" would die one after another for various reasons within the next three months after returning to reality:
The fate ends! Of course, he couldn't be sure that the death of Dream Festival and the reality would be absolutely true, but looking at Amandine's expression and listening to her tone, Lumian believed that she thought so too. After searching the second floor and finding nothing different from reality, Lumian walked up the stairs to the third floor. Amandine followed closely beside him, excited as if she finally had the chance to do something that a Beyonder should do. Lumian glanced at her and asked casually: "What impressed you most about last year's 'Dream Festival'?" Amandine's hidden excitement suddenly darkened, as if some unpleasant memories were brought back to her. She covered her mouth and nose, and said after a few seconds: "Robert and I found many people who were brutally killed in the town and on various plantations. Their stomachs were cut open and their internal organs were taken out. Their expressions were extremely painful, as if they were tortured to death..." "'Serial killer'?" Camus, who had been concentrating on listening to the conversation between Louis Berry and Amandine, blurted out. This reminded him of Tehuanaco. This "Apostle of Desire" vents his bloodlust at the "Dream Festival" so that he can show restraint at other times? So that's how it is... Lumian roughly understood how "Sisoka"'s promotion ceremony was completed: He followed the ritual and killed enough people in this realistic dream and ate the victims' internal organs. After that, he returned to reality. These people died one after another. From the perspective of fate, they were indeed killed by "Siso", which satisfied the most core requirement of the ritual. "Siso" only needed to eat some of the victims' internal organs before they were buried. He should be able to complete the ritual, take the potion, and be promoted to "Apostle of Desire". In reality, completing a serial murder and stealing parts of a corpse's internal organs are two tasks with completely different levels of difficulty! What Lumian couldn't understand was that, according to the records of "Demonology", this promotion ritual required that there must be a three-day interval between each killing, otherwise it would easily get out of control, and the longest interval could not exceed nine days, which would cause the ritual to be reset. "Siso" apparently used the "Dream Festival" to complete all the killings in one night. When they returned to reality and the primitive tribe attacked, all the "damned" people died on the same day without delaying until the next month. Lumian believed that this was due to the "April Fool's Day" prank - they took advantage of the chaos and sent all the dead people who the primitive tribe failed to clean up in time to hell. This can be confirmed from the statements of several peripheral members of "April Fool's Day". In other words, the interval must not exceed nine days, but Lumian doesn't know how "Siso" achieved it for more than three days. He used the special feature of dreams to avoid the problem of at least three days? When killing someone in a dream, it has not yet been reflected in reality, so it is not so easy to lose control? Lumian thought about the promotion ceremony of "Hisoka" while walking around the rooms on the third floor. After searching the room where Tewanaku slept, he smiled and said to Amandine: "Besides the serial murder case, what else did you encounter?" Amandine pursed her lips, frowned, struggled for a moment, and complained: "Since I'm so cooperative, will you give me a medal when I return to reality?" Her father, Petit, was a recipient of the Legion of Honor of Intis, so he could be called a knight. Without waiting for Lumien's response, Amandine said: “I also met a crazy woman. “At the time, I had wanted to go to the Briu Hotel to see how the gentlemen and ladies who went hunting in Tizamo would behave in such dreams. I was looking forward to seeing their other side. “I arrived at the door of one of the rooms and heard several people inside singing a strange song. Then, the crazy woman appeared behind Robert and me, and she also remained conscious. "She was pretty, but very crazy. At that time, I was like a kid who got a new toy. I always wanted to test my abilities. I thought that with Robert's cooperation, I should be able to easily deal with most Beyonders. One for control and one for attack. "As a result...she caught the two of us. Robert was knocked unconscious, stripped naked, and hung on the bell tower. A bunch of mosquitoes were placed next to him. I was hung in the cesspool and fell down little by little..." At this point, Amandine looked like she was about to vomit. In Tizamo, no one uses flush toilets except in a few places such as the Briu Hotel, St. Sien Church, and the Police Headquarters.
Camus imagined that scene and couldn't help but sympathize with Amandine. "Crazy girl"? Are those people in the chorus the "April Fools' Day" peripheral members who participated in the prank in Tizamo Town? Lumian went through the rooms on the third floor and smiled at Amandine and said: "and then?" Amandine took a deep breath and said: "She also asked me why I stayed awake. After I told her about Robert and Father Carly, she happily ran to St. Sean's Church and completely forgot about me. After that, I slowly got out of the predicament." Lumian nodded slightly and said: "Let's go to Saint-Sien's Church now." He planned to obtain more information from Father Cali and Robert before considering whether to use the "Peeping Glasses" and "Eye of Truth" in the "Siso" house in his dream. "Okay." Amandine tried not to look so expectant. She really wanted to see how her fiancé Robert got along with Father Cali. A group of five people left "Sisso"'s house and headed towards the Church of Saint Sean. Lumian did not use "teleport" because he did not want to waste his spiritual energy, and he could not carry others with him as he had transformed into a flaming spear. Fortunately, the town of Tizamo was not very big, and they quickly followed the shadows along the road and returned to the intersection where the Briu Hotel stood amidst various shouts and calls. Lumien pointed to the Briou Hotel and reminded Amandine: "Don't ever go to the second floor of the Briou Hotel. Believe me, it will be more terrible than what that crazy woman will bring to you." Amandine's eyes fixed and she said: "it is good." The five people turned into another street and soon passed the Bunia Cafe, the Police Headquarters, the small square, and arrived outside the Saint-Sien Church. Lumian didn't rush in. He went around to the side, pried open a stained glass window, and looked inside. Seeing this, he and Amandine, who was standing next to him, were almost blinded. In the church hall, in front of the altar of the "Eternal Sun", there were four or five naked men kneeling. They were all from the Northern Continent, and among them was Amandine's fiancé Robert. Father Carli was also naked, holding an open Bible in his hands, walking back and forth between Robert and others with an excited expression, reciting: "He walks in the light, He sheds warmth, He illuminates the world..." With each sentence of his sermon, Father Cali seemed to become a little more excited, excited in every sense of the word. (End of this chapter)
