The Crucifixion Cross

However, when the consciousness of the Persona contractor came from the real world to the "Magic Palace", how to deal with the body left in the real world became a problem that troubled the members of the Phantom Thieves.

Normally, the phantom thieves will reduce the risk by assigning at least two members to stay behind, but this time Morgana wants Akatsuki to go to Baiyu Sufang's "Magic Palace" alone...

It's not that Akatsuki looks down on Morgana's power, but if Baiyu Sufang is what she really said, a "monster-like woman" with an incredible background, then Akatsuki may be caught by the security guards around Baiyu Sufang before she even touches the location of the "treasure". It's possible that the personnel were found out.

Although Persona is strong, it is definitely not invincible. At the same time, the phantom thieves must also pay attention not to be discovered by the outside world.

Xiao is really worried about relying on Morgana's strength alone.

However, Morgana also has her own considerations.

Facing Akatsuki who was frowning tightly, Morgana's cat showed a very humane and relieved smile.

"Relax, Akatsuki, even if my strength is insufficient, isn't there still you?"

"Huh?" Xiao looked at Morgana puzzled, and couldn't understand what Morgana meant—no matter how strong she was, after entering the 'Magic Palace', Lai Qixiao in the real world would be defenseless , any thug can take care of her.

"Didn't you notice?" Morgana placed her two cat paws in front of her body, resting her small head lightly on them, and said slowly: "After establishing a 'connection' with Bai Yu Su Fei, your strength has become stronger again ! If it were you now, I think you should be able to materialize Persona even when the 'main body' is unconscious—not only that, but a new Persona has also been generated, right?"

When she said this, Morgana was very careful to hide her surprise and joy.

The members of the Phantom Thieves of Heart are all "qualified persons" carefully selected by Cocolia, and everyone's adaptability to Houkai is very good.

Although it is not comparable to those qualified Herrschers who are selected one in a million, but if it is placed in the destiny, it is also an absolute A+ rank Valkyrie candidate, a rare and cherished talent.

Among them, Lai Qixiao is a very special one.

Different from ordinary Persona contractors, Lai Qixiao can contract more than one Persona. According to the initial statement of the anti-entropy researchers, the dark side of Lai Qixiao’s spirit is not complete, but separated and independent from each other. , that's why there are plural 'fake Herrschers'.

Not only that, but her adaptability to Houkai is also unusually high, even faintly touching the threshold of Herrscher...

When she met Bai Yu Su Fei for the first time, she felt a special kind of intimacy because of her ridiculously high Hoonkai adaptability.

The same case happened to the clone of the experimental body code-named K-423 and the seed-buried Raiden Meiyi, so Morgana was not surprised, but surprised—this means that Lai Qixiao’s observation Samples' value is further enhanced.

It is difficult to explain the "abnormality" that happened to Lai Qixiao with common sense, but what is certain is that she, who cheats and usually has multiple Personas, is definitely the most special and strongest member of the Phantom Thieves of Heart.

After carefully studying Xiao's life trajectory, anti-entropy researchers overturned the original conclusion of "the dark side is split" and came up with a new view - Lai Qixiao's Persona was not generated by the dark side in her heart, but by her and the dark side. A 'connection' is formed between different people.

The origin of the multiple "false herrschers" is not fierce "love" or "hate", but Lai Qixiao's emotional fluctuations.

Every 'event' and every 'encounter' will cause a new 'fake herrscher' to be born in Lai Qixiao's body - this time, the encounter with Su Fei is the same.

As an 'observer' carefully crafted by Cocolia, Morgana has already felt that the newborn Persona is far more powerful than other Persona...

"A new Persona?" Xiao clenched his fists blankly, "But, Su Fei and I obviously haven't experienced so many things..."

According to Akatsuki's previous experience, the birth of a new Persona is often related to 'new encounters', 'new events' and 'new ties'. The Persona in her body is like a 'customs clearance gift package'. It will only appear after the 'New Encounter' and the resolution of the 'New Incident', but this time, the relationship between her and Su Fei is only at the level of 'Encounter', and the distance between 'Event' and 'Bond' is really poor. One hundred and eight thousand miles.

"How about trying it out?" Morgana narrowed her eyes, "Believe in yourself, Akatsuki? I've already felt the terrifyingly powerful power..."

"Is that so?" Akatsuki frowned slightly, but this time, she didn't directly deny Morgana's words, but closed her eyes, allowing her consciousness to pass through the surface of her mind, and came to a place deeper in the spiritual world—that It's Lai Qixiao's own 'magic palace', a place that is easily reminiscent of a 'prison' at first glance.

Akatsuki standing in the center is the aloof warden, and the 'prisoners' in the surrounding 'prisons' are her awakened Persona.

When she first came to her 'Magic Palace', Akatsuki couldn't adapt to this gloomy and gloomy environment, but with the increase of the number of times, now Akatsuki can calmly face everything deep in her heart.

'call……'

Gently exhaling, Akatsuki's eyes slowly swept over her Persona.

The first awakened Persona—Arsène was still sleeping, her red-black wings folded forward, enveloping it who was tall and slender but full of some kind of wonderful wild and gorgeous beauty.

When Akatsuki's gaze was on Arsène, the Persona who had been with Akatsuki the longest seemed to have noticed something, and the pair of wings in front of her trembled slightly, as if she was about to wake up.

However, Akatsuki quickly looked away from Arsène, looking for the 'new Persona' that Morgana said.

Although Xiao didn't notice the abnormality before, after all, it was Persona born because of the "encounter" between her and Su Fei. After consciously starting to search, it didn't take long for Xiao to find the "newcomer"—that is A pale phantom.

Akatsuki couldn't see the specific shape of 'it', but could only vaguely see that 'it' was probably a Persona in human form.

While realizing this, Akatsuki gently stretched out her hand, and slowly reached for what might be the 'head'.

The moment the cold and hard touch reached Xiao's heart through the fingertips, two blue starlights silently lit up.

At the moment of 'eyes facing each other', a strong and suffocating sense of oppression rushed over, as if a violent storm had blown up in the depths of the 'Magic Palace', even the master Akatsuki couldn't bear it.

"...!"

She subconsciously assumed a defensive posture, wanting to grit her teeth and hold on, but in front of the storm caused by the pale phantom, Akatsuki had no power to fight back at all!

In less than a blink of an eye, Akatsuki was directly expelled from her 'Magic Palace' by the new Persona!

Returning to the real world, Xiaomeng opened his eyes, panting heavily.

"Hahaha……"

Her body trembled with fear from that momentary contact, and her thin shirt was completely drenched in cold sweat.

After a while like this, Xiaocai managed to calm down.

She looked at the slightly trembling fingertips, as if Persona's suffocating power still remained there.

After a long time, she turned her gaze to Morgana—a pale flame burned in those pale eyes.

"You're right, Morgana, I really should be more confident in my own strength..." Akatsuki clenched her small fists and said softly, "Now I always have the feeling that I am omnipotent. !"

Hua Ling's words: Well...it's not the Persona that appeared in the P series, but the image in other works, the concept map should be released when it is updated tomorrow...

By the way, the position has been transferred again recently. It is said that in the future it will become a [-]-hour work system with two shifts... I think it's time for me to resign, who the hell can do this boring job!

Chapter 52. Phantom Thief and Phantom Thief

It is Akatsuki's patience to do what he said...cough!No, Lai Qixiao is just a Persona contractor, and he is still a hundred and eight thousand miles away from a certain creation ninja, so it is naturally impossible to do ninja or something.

However, Akatsuki is not the kind of person who makes up her mind but then thinks it over and refuses to take action. Since she has decided to visit Bai Yu's house at night, she will act immediately.

After changing into a neat dark black outfit, Xiao tentatively called downstairs a few times, "Boss?"boss? ', after confirming that there was no sound coming, Xiaocai quietly breathed a sigh of relief, opened the door and window lightly, and left the small bedroom on the second floor of the coffee shop in a chivalrous style—this year, whether it is a 'snitch' or a 'snitch' "Righteous Thief" is also "Grand Thief" or "Phantom Thief". Anyway, people in this area will never follow the right path honestly. This has almost become a kind of "common sense".

After leaving the second floor without a sound, Xiao disappeared into the thick night together with Morgana who was leading the way ahead.

But then again...

"Morgana, how do you know where Baiyu's house is?" Akatsuki asked curiously.

She didn't notice anything from Morgana's persuasion, but she was simply curious.

However, no matter how pure Akatsuki's curiosity was, Morgana was startled by this sudden sentence and her paws broke into cold sweat (the cat sweats through the cat's paws By a kind flower).

Why would Morgana know where the White Feather House is?

This question couldn't be answered any better, so easy that Morgana couldn't even tell it!

The members of the Phantom Thieves are all familiar with the kitten who calls itself Morgana, and they believed its original statement without much thought—Morgana was originally a human being, just because of an incident related to Persona and the "Magic Palace" And had to walk in the real world as a cat.

Not only that, but Morgana also lost most of her memories in that incident, leaving only some memories related to Persona and the 'Magic Palace'.

Among them, it includes the method of going to the "Magic Palace" from the present world, as well as various tips, such as helping "companions" familiarize themselves with the operation and realization of Persona.

Because of the reason why he has always existed in the phantom thief group as a "reliable and unreliable tragic senior", most members of the group do not regard Morgana as an enemy, but a guide they can rely on, but it is a pity , things are not always as simple as imagined.

Morgana, who is regarded as a senior by the members of the Phantom Thieves, is of course not a "Persona contractor who lost her memory and human form due to an accident", but a "monitor" made by Cocolia!

Its mission is to monitor the members of the phantom thieves at the shortest distance, and guide their actions in the direction Cocolia wants.

Now, Cocolia hopes that Lai Qixiao, the most special and strongest member of the Phantom Thieves, will go to the meeting alone to test the loyalty of her awakened Persona to the host, so Morgana will try her best to persuade Lai Qixiao to go to the White Feather Mansion alone.

Xiao Xiao's worry was not unreasonable, and Morgana was even more aware that now that Kaiwen No. 2 had voluntarily appeared in front of Bai Yu Su Fei, the guarding of Bai Yu's house had reached a frenzied level.

If Akatsuki is really going to attack Mishima's carefully laid defense net with Akatsuki alone, Akatsuki Persona probably won't be able to last even a minute, right?

After all, even if the existence of those big demon kings is ruled out, Akatsuki will have to face Mishima's former covert assassination captain 'The Executioner Fenrir' alone!

Although Morgana is very confident in Akatsuki's power, it is not stupid enough to think that Akatsuki can defeat the long-famous 'Fenrir' with a few Personas.

However, Morgana's real purpose is not to really attack the guard network of the Mishima family, it just follows Cocolia's instructions and uses actual combat to test the strength of the new Persona and the loyalty of other Persona...

Without Xiaona's sudden question, Morgana's performance could almost be called perfect.

Unfortunately, facing Akatsuki's question, Morgana, who was completely unprepared, suddenly panicked.

Why did it know where Bai Yu's house was?

How easy it is!

With the identity in anti-entropy, it would be really inconceivable for Morgana not to know where Bai Yuzhai is, but the question is, how should it explain this problem to Akatsuki now?

After thinking for a while in cold sweat with four claws, Morgana suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and quickly replied:

"It's because of 'Elf'! 'Elf'! Although 'Elf' doesn't like to talk about his own affairs very much, but when facing cats (my generation), 'Elf' is surprisingly frank! I already knew The matter between 'Elf' and Bai Yu Su Fei, I just kept it secret from you guys~"

Morgana wanted to give herself a thumbs up for what she said—this rhetoric was perfect!

Moreover, Morgana is not deceiving Akatsuki, after all, it is indeed better than Elf—in order to better play the image of the monster thief, Morgana usually uses 'Code Name' to call team members, and the word 'Elf' The owner of the code name is none other than Su Fei's childhood sweetheart Yuuki Asuna—everyone else knows about the relationship between the two of them, the only difference is how they know.

Morgana's heart was magnanimous, and Akatsuki didn't doubt that there was him, and after a soft 'oh', she continued on her way.

With the power of Persona—that is, the blessing of Houkai Neng, Akatsuki's physical fitness has improved by leaps and bounds, and it didn't take long for Akatsuki to arrive near Baiyu's house.

She carefully controlled her steps, suppressing the sound of her footsteps as much as possible, and hiding her body in the thick shadows.

Sensitive perception let Akatsuki know that she must not act rashly.

The feeling in the air is very bad, as if the blade-like murderous intent is roaming around the Baiyu house unscrupulously, like a ferocious shark in the sea, as long as it smells even a little bit of blood, it will swarm towards it, killing the blood The source of the child strangles and devours!

The sense of uneasiness in her back made Akatsuki believe in her true judgment—if Bai Yu Su Fang was really just an ordinary girl, then how could she explain the level of rigor that Jin Cheng and the others were more than [-] streets away from? What about defensive measures?

Thinking of this, Akatsuki couldn't help but become more cautious.

She leaned against the wall, carefully avoiding the killing intent wandering in the air, and moved towards Bai Yu's house little by little.

It's not that Akatsuki didn't think about retiring, it's just that the sense of responsibility as the leader of the group overwhelmingly defeated the fear that was nothing compared to it - she is the leader of the Phantom Thieves, so she is more powerful than anyone else. It is the responsibility to find out the enemy's situation for the members of the regiment!

Taking a deep breath, Xiao Bing, who was wearing a black tuxedo embodied by the power of Persona—that is, the power of Honkai, concentrated his breath and focused all his attention on the side door not far away—the person walking through the main door is Impossible to leave, impossible for a lifetime, how could the majestic 'Strange Thief' walk the right way?What a loss!The side door is the romance of the phantom thief!Is a strange thief who takes an ordinary path still a strange thief?

Relying on her inherently excellent stealth talent and environmental bonuses, Akatsuki managed to approach the side door of Baiyu House smoothly.

The target was close at hand, and the killing intent wandering in the air became more and more fierce, even Xiao, who claimed to be experienced in many battles, was a little bit overwhelmed.

Fortunately, the new Persona and her worries about the team members finally overwhelmed Xiao's fear, allowing her to face the danger head-on.

closer, closer...

Akatsuki held her breath, all her energy was concentrated, and she didn't relax because the goal was approaching.

She can be sure that the current self has done everything she can to the extreme, and the only thing left is to take the last step, gently open the side door, and sneak into the mansion silently before anyone finds out.

Thinking so, Akatsuki stretched out her hand towards the closed side door slowly, slowly.

Quietly, the side door opened.

There was not a single sound, which perfectly fit Akatsuki's expectations, but...

why?

Xiao stared blankly at the fingertips that were still a short distance away from the side door—that distance is really very small, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a slight difference, but...

If you didn't touch it, you didn't touch it. The fact cannot be changed.

So here comes the question, why did the side door open before Akatsuki's hand touched it?

At the same time that this question appeared in Akatsuki's mind, a frivolous greeting and warm breath came from behind——

"Hello, cute little bird~"

Chapter 53. Phantom Thief and Phantom Thief

The warm and moist breath caressed the girl's white and elegant neck, bringing a wonderful itching sensation.

Akatsuki shrank her body instinctively, and two clusters of delicate red clouds rose irresistibly on her delicate and fair cheeks.

The intimate contact that she had never had before caused Akatsuki's thinking to fall into a brief confusion-for her as the leader of the Phantom Thieves, this was very rare.

However, when the frivolous and playful female voice came to the ear, the charming and ambiguous moment disappeared in an instant.

Instead, it was bone-piercing ice——

"Hello, cute little bird~"

Like a Morgana with fried hair, Xiao Han's hair stood on end, cold sweat instantly soaked his thin shirt.

Under the effect of sweat, the inner clothes were clinging to the body, which felt so weird.

However, Akatsuki didn't even have time to fully feel this weird feeling, so she reacted as a monster thief as quickly as possible—retire!Get back!
