The dance party went very smoothly, nothing unexpected happened in the first half.
Dance after dance music was played, the ladies and gentlemen danced to their heart's content, the atmosphere became more and more lively.
During this time, a lot of people looked towards the corner where Elvin and the other two were, eager to try. Obviously Anthony and Dilis were like two bright lights that attracted a lot of people's attention, even the number of people looking at Elvin increased.
"Thank you, but I'm a bit tired …"
After Dilis impatiently rejected another 'gentleman's' invitation, she complained: "It's almost midnight, is the 'Man Killer Fiend' not coming?"
Being continuously invited to dance by men who thought they were extremely charming, Dilis was extremely annoyed, she really wanted the 'Man Killer Fiend' to come out and fight for 300 rounds, to show these guys who only know how strong she is!
But at this time, Elvin's face slightly changed, he lightly said:
"She's already here!"
"What, where?!"
Hearing that, Anthony and Dilis's body tensed up, they immediately wanted to jump up.
"Don't show any abnormalities for now, I still haven't found her location"
Elvin nonchalantly put down the wine glass in his hand, without any excessive movements: "Didn't you guys notice that after the first two dances, the number of people leaving after each dance has decreased, but the number of people joining is increasing?"
"There's nothing strange about that right? Normally as the dance party progresses this way "Dilis looked at the dance floor, trying to discern the difference between what Elvin said, but to no avail.
"There really isn't anything strange about that. What's strange is that they didn't change their dance partners at all! " Elvin had already quietly put his hand on his sword hilt, at the same time pointing out the most abnormal part of the dance party.
But even so, Anthony and Dilis still couldn't believe it.
Even though their mental strength has been activated, their intelligence and memory are much better than normal people, but it's still not enough for them to clearly remember the abnormalities that happened to hundreds of people at the same time.
"You haven't changed it?" Anthony furrowed his brows. Although he believed that Elvin wouldn't spout nonsense, it would be a slap to the consul's face if he were to act rashly on such an occasion.
It would be fine if the enemy was a Mad Hammer Stalker who only knew how to fight head-on, but the enemies who attacked in secret were the most troublesome!
The crowd was not only their prey, but also their natural cover, so they did not dare to act rashly.
Elvin spread out his hands, indicating that he could only see the abnormality, but could not pinpoint the source for the time being.
"Do you have any specific information about the abilities of the Dancer of White Flour and the Blue Bell Flower?"
In reality, even though there was a "Man Killer Fiend" rampage 8 years ago, there's still a lot of missing information from the government.
Before anyone could react, the "Man Killer Fiend" had already grown to the level of a Level 3 Superhuman, if it wasn't for the help of the Kingdom's hidden powerhouses, New Haven might have already been turned into a pile of rubble.
Instead, the Alliance of Nobles at that time, as the instigator and the one who suffered the most losses, most likely had first-hand information, which is why Elvin asked.
Anthony naturally knew that he had to take the blame for what happened 8 years ago, so he didn't try to defend himself, but instead told them what he knew.
"Hm … The Blue Bell Flower specializes in illusions and mental witchcraft, it can interfere with a person's actions on a spiritual level, if the difference in power is too great, it can achieve a terrifying effect similar to the Mass Puppet Spell.
Even if it's controlled for a long enough time, it can even hollow out a person's soul from the inside, turning them into an empty shell. Alba suffered greatly because of this. "
After hesitating for a bit, Anthony continued:
"The Dancer of White Flour should be closer to the nature of the legendary Evil Spirits, the strongest and most unpredictable among the 7 Man Killer Fiends. According to the records of the family, she only appeared once 8 years ago, and other than the final powerhouse of the Kingdom, she's the only one who hasn't been killed yet.
Her information is also the least, all we know is that her power is very idealistic, as long as a certain condition is met, there's a chance you'll fall for it! It manifests itself as an uncontrollable desire to dance, until … death! "
After hearing Anthony's information, Elvin directly said:
"After eliminating the 'Devil's Disciple', I think the situation is very clear. Look at those who are still dancing, their movements are smooth and their expressions are rich.
It's a desire to dance from the bottom of their hearts, not being controlled like a puppet, it's obvious who's behind this. "
"Furthermore, it's very easy to confirm if there's really a problem, all we need is a simple accident."
Snap — —
After saying that, Elvin snapped his fingers.
Anthony and Dilis who couldn't stop him in time, could only helplessly watch Elvin's actions, hoping that he won't cause too much trouble.
Flap flap …
A white seagull, which was not small in size, flew out from an unknown corner and pecked at the fresh shrimp on the table as if no one was there to stop it. Seeing that no one came to stop it, it swaggered to the champagne tower, flapped its wings, and stomped on the ground.
The two spectators groaned in their hearts, this accident is too …!
But their thoughts obviously couldn't affect the laws of physics …
Crash — —
The 3 meter tall champagne tower collapsed, the sound of glass shattering that lasted for 10 seconds was enough to alarm everyone in the banquet hall.
The atmosphere was dead silent for a moment, then turned into a clamor.
"Oh my god! What's going on?! "
"Oh my Goddess."
Someone poked his head out to look, only to see glass shards, alcohol, and an innocent seagull flying away.
The three of them who pretended as if nothing had happened no longer paid attention to the champagne tower, but at the same time locked their eyes on the dance floor, finally noticing the abnormality there.
Da da … Da da … Da da … Da da …
In such a clamor, even though the musicians had stopped playing, most of the people on the dance floor were still immersed in the world of dance, as if they weren't disturbed at all.
The dance was graceful and precise, as if they were still immersed in the same dance song.
"Hey, Blake, what's wrong?"
"Why did you stop? Keep dancing! "A gentleman in a formal suit responded.
"Stop, stop, Alice!"
"No one can stop me from dancing!" A girl in a pink dress stubbornly resisted the obstruction of her dance partner, even if she struggled until her arm was dislocated, she didn't stop dancing.
“.....”
A few people who were still normal quickly noticed the abnormality, after trying to call their dance partners or close friends to no avail, they all realized the danger, and carefully slipped out of the dance floor around the people who were still dancing.
At this time, the consul who was slow to realize the situation was also covered in cold sweat, he gently let go of the dance partner in his arms, and realized that his departure didn't affect her at all, the dance partner's face was still intoxicated, as if she was still dancing with a non-existent person.
Fortunately, his wife and daughter had already left the dance floor to rest.
After running out of the dance floor in a panic, Consul Murdoch immediately shouted: "Guards!!!"
Huala — —
The arranged "security personnel" also realized their dereliction of duty, when they noticed the abnormality of the dance floor, they all jumped out of their hiding rooms and ran towards the dance floor.
"Consul, are you okay?" The leader of the City Guard, Wood, carefully asked Murdoch.
Their duty today was to surround and hunt down the "Man Killer Fiends" that might appear, but until the "Man Killer Fiends" started attacking the guests, they didn't even notice, this situation was already considered dereliction of duty!
Ignoring their dereliction of duty, Murdoch's face was slightly twisted as he ordered: "What are you waiting for? The Man Killer Fiends are already here, it's time for you to act! "
In reality, he was already regretting, in order to lessen his responsibility and leave a good impression in front of the crown prince, he rashly stepped into a dangerous area that he wasn't familiar with.
He thought that with these dozen or so city guards, nothing would go wrong. But in the end, he was greatly disappointed. It was very difficult for him to maintain 100% confidence in the city guard's superhumans like he did in the beginning.
What's even more frightening was that these "bait" guests were all upper class people in the city, not only did they represent wealth and power, they also represented the order of the city.
He couldn't imagine, if something happened to these people today, what kind of terrible consequences would there be. At that time, don't even talk about redeeming himself, he might even be torn to pieces by the enraged noble families.
As he roared, his back was already soaked in sweat.
"Yes sir! Sir! "
After bowing, Wood ordered the City Guard behind him to act.
"Let's go, we need to control everyone first."
Wood's idea wasn't wrong, to control the irrelevant people first, to avoid accidental injuries, and to reduce the interference of unexpected factors, it would be easier to find the "Man Killer Fiend" in the process.
But soon, reality gave him a slap in the face.
"Sir, it's not working! They can't seem to think of anything else, even if you knock them out, or even remove their joints, it won't stop them from dancing. "
"I've already seen it!" Wood's face was extremely ugly, he noticed more than his subordinates. As time passed, more and more people from the crowd outside the dance floor joined in, becoming one of the dancers.
Obviously, some kind of mechanism that affected the guests' desire to dance was still in effect.
The unexpected exposure also caused the evil spirits to have a new reaction, the rhythm of the dance on the dance floor gradually increased, their dance became more and more passionate.
But, there wasn't even any music!
Realizing that this couldn't go on, Wood immediately gave a new order: "Quickly, have everyone leave the hotel. Mobilize people to search every room, find that monster! "
"Yes, sir."
What he didn't notice was that his assistant, Jast, had quietly walked up behind him.
Whoosh!
Jast was holding a sword in his hand, and the sword was like a poisonous snake from a very tricky angle, stabbing into Wood's waist like lightning.
The accident was so sudden and fatal!
