It's too late to stop, and it can't be stopped.

Having received special training, she is able to control her emotions freely, not to mention losing her mind with her subordinates.

But facing the fanatical former subordinates who charged at her with rifles and bayonets, Lin Yue finally had to reverse the gun and give the crazy subordinates the last mercy.

This process didn't take long, but when Lin Yue loaded the last magazine and knocked down the last soldier who appeared in front of her eyes, the surrounding was completely quiet, which made her heart sink to the bottom of the valley.

"In this case, even if we return to the command post or activate the last resort, I'm afraid it will be too late..."

Lin Yue smiled wryly, and pushed open the courtyard door in front of him.

The smell of blood rushed to the face, and the courtyard where the imperial emperor was imprisoned has now turned into a slaughterhouse.

She saw about 20 to 30 corpses floating, and the scarlet liquid that carried them poured towards the gate.

That scarlet liquid is blood.

This small courtyard enclosed on all sides is like a small wooden barrel, which has accumulated far more blood than the people who died in this courtyard can provide.Now a short board of the wooden barrel was broken, and the blood and corpses as the "content" naturally flowed out in the direction of the short board.

"It seems that this is the place."

After seeing such a tragic scene, Lin Yue showed a look of excitement instead.

With a little brainstorming, one can guess that such a huge amount of blood must come from the dead soldiers in the entire city... In other words, this is probably a node that the black hand hiding behind the scenes pays attention to.

Or maybe it is her/his base?

The surging blood flow gradually became smaller, and soon turned into a trickle that only reached the ankle.

Lin Yue walked into the courtyard.

The building itself didn't seem to have suffered any damage, and even the traces that should have been soaked in blood were gone.

"Is that so... to isolate the room from the outside world by some means...is it an enchantment?"

Although he didn't know anything about it, such a scene made Lin Yue stop.

[Although I am here alone, I have long been aware of what will happen next, but I still feel nervous...]

The next moment, the door opened automatically, revealing a small room with no light at all.

This is the owner of the house, who is sending an invitation, or rather, a challenge to Lin Yue.

After a little tidying up her clothes, Lin Yue held a gun in one hand, and quietly penetrated into the inside of her clothes with the other hand, and then——

Throws a grenade.

The grenade flew into the dark room, but Lin Yue, who was outside the room, did not hear the explosion.

Even under such an attack, the door was still wide open facing Lin Yue. It seemed that the owner of the room was not moved by her rudeness at all.

Of course, the greater possibility is that someone hiding in the room is confident that Lin Yue will not harm her at all.

"Okay, okay, let me go in anyway, right?"

Lin Yue's shoulders suddenly collapsed, as if all his energy had been taken away:

"This is also my original purpose. Since the defeat is already decided, let's start the final answer in advance."

After all, Lin Yue strode into the room, and the door that opened and closed automatically closed the moment the woman entered.

——————————————————————————————————————

The furnishings that I saw in front of me were no different from the past.

This was Lin Yue's first thought after entering the room.

But compared with the almost unchanged furnishings, it is the room itself——

As a part of the imperial palace, even the prisons used to confine the royal family have inherited the majestic and majestic style of imperial architecture, and the decorations in the buildings are naturally dominated by this style.

But the scene that appeared in front of Lin Yue at this moment was too glamorous.

The white walls in the past were replaced by colorful wallpapers, or simply colored bricks. The ceiling crystal lamp, which is so luxurious that it should not appear in this era, is hung in the center of the room - due to the huge volume of the crystal lamp itself and the room Relatively short in height, Lin Yue had to bend down when passing to avoid touching the huge lamp.

In addition, the most abnormal thing is the candy.

The dense, endless candies covered the entire room, almost to the point where there was nowhere to go.

The air was filled with a sweet and cloying smell, and the smell of blood outside the house was almost a different world.

But for Lin Yue, the smell of blood is probably more to her liking. After all, it represents the known, while the strange candies and decorations in the room at this moment represent the unknown.

"What the hell is this place?"

Lin Yue asked subconsciously.

"This is 'Candy House'."

Then, she got this answer.

The voice came from behind, and the excellent military quality made a judgment immediately, but Lin Yue did not choose to punish the person who spoke with a pistol.

She threw the gun to the ground, and said:

"If I remember correctly, the candy house seems to be something that appeared in a fairy tale, right? And when it comes to that fairy tale, I have to mention the brother and sister who strayed into this house..."

"It's Hansel, and Gretel."

said the voice.

really.

Hansel Gretel, a participant of the "Thule" in the masquerade, participated in the troubled times of the empire as Princess Selesia, and was finally framed to death by Lin Yue's scheme.

Lin Yue felt a burst of joy in her heart.

Compared with the outcome of the masquerade ball, what she is looking forward to more is this "emergency situation" and the thrill of solving puzzles that it causes.

But now, the motives, means, and evidence for the large-scale sacrifice in the imperial capital were almost instantly available.

The only problem is-

"...Why didn't you die?"

A sharp light flashed secretly in Lin Yue's eyes, but the next moment it was covered up by panic, and his tone became more hesitant:

"I'm sure you must be dead, why do you still have such power now, and even conduct blood sacrifices of this scale?"

"You are right, Hansel was indeed killed by you. She has probably returned to the base world by now."

Footsteps sounded, and the owner of the sound walked up to Lin Yue step by step.

It was a creature with silver-gray mid-length hair, an appearance between a boy and a girl, and a hazy beauty.

"I'm Gretel, Hansel's brother in the fairy tale 'Candy House', but in this more realistic world—"

He paused for a moment, as if he was showing off, and Lin Yue also showed a look of searching at the right time.

This gave Gretel great satisfaction:

"I'm Hansel's half body... I really want to call myself that, but it's actually that, a second soul or something..."

"……I see."

second soul?

Lin Yue knew it in her heart.

This is similar to the setting of one body and two souls in the novel, but in fact the so-called second soul should be one of the secret techniques developed by Thule.

The effect is to use one's own soul as the basis, and derive another soul from it-a soul that has all the memories and abilities, and even if it is damaged, it will not hurt itself.

Most of Thule's senior members will develop a second, or even a third soul, which will be attached to the artificial man for the exploration of the new world.Since most of the members of "Thule" come from their knowledge, this seemingly inefficient method unexpectedly suits them.

"Then, you made such a large-scale blood sacrifice to avenge Hansel?"

Lin Yue asked tentatively.

"This is somewhat related to that, but more importantly..."

Gretel's complexion suddenly changed, and his tone that was originally easy to handle also suddenly became gloomy:

"Although I really want to have a good talk with you, the guy who killed my sister, but it seems that some people really want to come in and find out. I'll get rid of her first..."

Before he finished speaking, Ling Lie's sword energy had torn apart a corner of the room.

"This enchantment is weaker than I thought."

Three floating swords entered the candy house one after another.

It was Goujian, her arrival made the atmosphere in this small room suddenly solemn.

Chapter 227 214. Summoning Formation

"It's really rude of you, a maid, to destroy other people's residences casually."

Gretel sighed softly.

"Allah, the maid's etiquette will only be shown to the master, a murderer like you, I don't remember when I became my master."

Gou Jian confronted each other.

[Now the situation is complicated. 】

Let Gretel and Gou Jian continue their sparkling conversation, but Lin Yue quietly retreated to a corner of the room.

For her, the current situation was too chaotic, and it made her despair.

If she was the only one facing Gretel, relying on the other party's pride and underestimating the enemy, she would be sure to fight back... However, because of Gou Jian's intrusion, she did not dare to act rashly.

After all, although these two are in a hostile relationship, she, Lin Yue, has no friendly relationship with them... Although she really wants to follow the principle of "the enemy of an enemy is a friend" to form an alliance with one of them, but...

Goujian's camp is the "rebel" and she is the "insider". Judging from the rules of the masquerade, there is a fundamental conflict between the two sides.Now that a large number of cheap troops have been lost, Lin Yue's own strength is far behind Gou Jian's.

Without the backing of strength, even forming an alliance will only be used as cannon fodder, so forming an alliance with Goujian will not work.

As for Gretel, the existence of this guy is really weird, and there are still many things that are not clear... And even if what this guy just said is true, as his enemy, Lin Yue has no possibility of forming an alliance.

【...Sure enough, I should find a way to get out of here...】

While the two of them were not paying attention, Lin Yue pulled out a single-molecule dagger from the boot, and quietly dug up the wall behind him.
