"Madness!"

Even though "Spectator" has been promoted to Sequence 6, it only has one attack ability. Similar to "Intimidation", although it can be effective on more people, the effect is limited to making people panic or make people fear from the bottom of their hearts. They obey the orders obediently, but they can't really hurt the other party.

And as Sequence improves, Audrey can feel that this Beyonder Ability becomes more powerful. Perhaps at the Demigod stage, "Madness" can truly become "Storm" that can tear apart other people's hearts and destroy Mind Body.

As her eyes turned into vertical pupils similar to those of a giant dragon, her golden eyes reflected the figure of the man in the top hat in front of her. The latter suddenly raised his head back and his body froze for a second.

His eyes suddenly turned golden, and vertical pupils also appeared, and then he lost part of his reason, filled with madness pouring from deep within.

The name "Spectator" of unknown origin also used "Madness" at almost the same time!

Four lines of sight intertwined in the air. Audrey just felt happy because he had gained the advantage by taking action in advance. What followed was strong fluctuations in the mental level and countless crazy thoughts emerging in his mind.

Roar, rage, and tear apart everything around you!

Another one with red eyes and bulging veins on his forehead, "Audrey" roared in her mind, but in reality, her exposed skin glowed with golden light, and scales grew out from under the skin, like an inhuman monster.

No, Audrey, you can't become a monster here, that will kill everyone at the dance, calm down... This is just a normal practice, yes, practice!

She had created scales on her body countless times in her bedroom as a practice, and now she used this feeling to quickly soothe herself, making Spirituality, who was on the verge of losing control, slowly become calm, and the scales on her body faded away piece by piece, returning to smooth and white skin.

The madness in her eyes also subsided, the vertical pupils faded away, the golden color turned to green, and reason returned to her mind.

I'm so lucky... Even the risk of losing control of my promotion after taking Potion was solved by Susie. This time, the other party should have used "Madness" in a hurry, and there was no further progress. Make more follow-up attacks... She sighed in her mind, focused her eyes, and looked in front of her, only to find that the "Spectator" man who had become just as crazy as her had disappeared without a trace. The door next to her remained ajar, with no trace of entry or exit.

"Psychological Invisibility" again?

Audrey subconsciously wanted to imitate the other party to enter the same state, but from the brief contact just now, she had discovered that the other party's Sequence was higher than hers, so she was able to launch a hasty counterattack, allowing Both sides fell into "Madness", but they did not reach the stage of Demigod. Otherwise, with this attack alone, Audrey would not be able to recover from the madness.

"Dreamwalker" of Sequence 5? Is my "Psychological Invisibility" useful against Beyonder, which is taller than me? Sequence is taller than me...

After confirming the other party's Sequence, the brave energy in Audrey's heart quickly faded. She glanced at the half-open door beside her and knew that her best choice at the moment was to leave here and return to the ballroom or restaurant along the corridor. As long as she entered Entering the crowd, this "Dreamwalker" did not dare to do anything to her, a noble, and Duke's house must have Beyonder secretly guarding it. If there was any commotion, they would pay attention to this place and lend a helping hand...

No, before that, I will be Hypnosis, forget all this, and even leave more hidden dangers!

Audrey gritted her teeth and transformed into an amethyst earring. The "Lies" hanging on her earlobe flashed bright yellow light, and a circle of flames of the same color surged out from around her and spread rapidly in a ring shape. In an instant, it swept across the entire lounge and went out with a pop before landing on the mural, the sofa or the flammable curtains.

But in addition to these flammable objects that were almost ignited, there was an extra flame in the corner of the room that did not go out with Audrey's thoughts. It floated strangely in the air, and its area continued to expand, as if it was burning a transparent object.

Immediately, this "incoherence" broke the "dead zone of consciousness" in Audrey's mind, causing the man in black clothes and top hat who had just disappeared to reappear in her sight.

The latter was slapping the flames on his coat with his hand, and his somewhat resentful eyes immediately stopped at Audrey...

Damn, she went into "Psychological Invisibility" mode too!

The man was startled and extinguished the not-so-strong flame on his coat. As the movement stopped, his figure became blurred. First his head and neck, then his torso, and finally his limbs became transparent, and almost his entire body disappeared into Physical World.

He is about to transform into the real "Dreamwalker", step into dreams that can be seen everywhere, and use the connections between different dreams to achieve the "flash" in Physical World and leave here quickly.

But in the next second, the figure that was about to disappear was hit by bright stars that appeared out of thin air one after another. They condensed instantly and formed a huge transparent amber, completely covering the figure of "Dreamwalker", locking any means for him to leave through reality or dreams.

This is "Starlight Cage" that comes with "Star Ring Pendant" belonging to Audrey!

The expression of the man shrouded in amber froze, and all movements of his limbs stopped, reminding Audrey of the plants and animals he had seen in the museum that were trapped inside amber and had not decayed after thousands of years.

"Cage" can only last a few seconds, what should I do...

She walked away from the effect of "Psychological Invisibility" and it only took her a moment to decide what to do next.

For the first time in her life, she experienced this feeling of speeding up her thinking and making her blood boil in a fierce battle.

Well, this may also have the effect of "Lies" amplifying emotions... She gathered her thoughts and came to the front of the man wrapped in amber.

"Madness!"

Staring closely at "Dreamwalker" whose eyes gradually brightened and the amber beside him slowly faded, Audrey's eyes turned into golden vertical pupils again, actively continuing the battle.

"At least four of them can be confirmed to be Beyonder, not including the 'senior Beyonder' who is higher in Sequence and can hide his intentions and actions well..."

Angel held a champagne glass and leaned against the corridor on the second floor of the ballroom. He carefully observed all the guests with the naked eye and the ubiquitous mirrors, monitoring them from all directions and fulfilling his dream of "Spectator".

Huhu, call Audrey over later and ask her to observe these people carefully to see if it is me or she who found more Beyonder... She just entered a lounge and never came out. Out of respect for her, I did not continue to use the "mirror" to track her movements in the room...

Angel, who already felt that this dance was a bit boring, muttered, drank the last sip of champagne, saw that no one was paying attention, and burped regardless of etiquette. Then he walked contentedly to the entrance of the corridor leading to the restaurant, handed the empty wine glass to a waiter, and walked into the empty corridor before attracting the attention of other guests again.

This corridor connects the ballrooms and restaurants on the east and west sides of Duke Negan's Estate, so it is long and quiet. On one side are continuous glass windows, through which you can see the somewhat deserted atrium illuminated by the moonlight. On the other side are doors leading to the bathroom and lounge.

There are stone statues placed along the corridor. They are the ancestors of the Negan Family, including Duke of all dynasties, Prime Minister of the kingdom, speaker of the parliament, and military generals.

It's a pity that Pallas Negan Duke died not long ago, and his statue hasn't been placed here yet... Well, this corridor is almost out of space. Will they widen it?

Thinking wildly, Angel walked forward, her eyes already locked on the other double Door Opening door at the end. Behind the door was the restaurant of Duke house, where various delicacies were prepared for the guests, which was also her next goal.

Moreover, Audrey is in the lounge at the end of this corridor. I can call her together...

At this moment, the half-open door of the room where Audrey was hidden was suddenly pushed open. Audrey, wearing a beige palace dress, white silk gloves, and a pair of purple gemstone earrings, walked out quickly. Her cheeks were reddish, and her emerald green eyes with looming gold showed both panic and excitement.

She saw Angel walking towards her at a glance, her eyes lit up, she quickly came over and said in a fast but clear tone:

"Christine, there is a strange Beyonder in the room. He is Sequence 5 of 'Spectator' Pathway. He just tried to attack me. I, I defeated him, what should I do now?"

The more she talked, the more excited she became, and she kept looking towards the door, as if she was worried that the "strange Beyonder" would suddenly run out from inside.

"Is he dead?"

Angel asked immediately, then his eyes flickered, and he used the mirror in the room to confirm the situation inside.

A man wearing a tuxedo and a top hat was walking back and forth in the lounge, occasionally turning over the cushions on the sofa and opening the cabinet in the corner, as if he was looking for something.

"No, I used 'Madness' to make him mentally weak and then Hypnosis him, making him think that he should find his top hat and continue fighting. The effect will not last long," Audrey pursed his lips and replied, "I don't know what to do, tell dad, or find Duke Negan... He probably doesn't know that I am Beyonder."

He actually defeated the opponent head-on, and in turn, Hypnosis ZZZZed Spectator, which was higher than his Sequence?

Angel was a little surprised, then smiled in relief.

From the last time she invited the other party to help Hypnosis, the victim parasitized by Amon's clone, she discovered that Audrey was not only constantly improving on Potion Sequence, but his personality was no longer the naive Miss he was when he first joined Tarot Club, but had the qualities of an excellent Beyonder.

Unexpectedly, she went one step further this time...

"Well done, Audrey," she did not hesitate to give her sincere praise, and then walked into the lounge with the door wide open, looking at "Dreamwalker" who was desperately looking for the top hat on his head, "Let's see who he is first, and then decide what to do."

Considering the security measures already in place in Duke's house, I'm afraid they only have a few minutes left.

Therefore, Angel came to the man without any delay, causing the other man to look over in surprise and reveal a flattering smile:

"Beautiful Miss, have you seen my top hat? I can't find it."

What a powerful method. It avoided the opponent's resistance due to life-threatening orders, and used the obsession to find the hat to keep him in the room. Even if the opponent wakes up after Audrey leaves, he will give priority to escaping instead of tracking her...

Angel praised in his heart, stretched out his slender arms, took the top hat from the other person's head, and shook it in front of the man:

"Isn't it right here?"

Immediately, when the opponent took the top hat with a blank look on his face and seemed to be about to wake up from Hypnosis, Angel retracted his arm, clenched his fist, punched the opponent at a speed that almost left only an afterimage, and hit the opponent's chest hard.

It combined the "accuracy" of Hunter and the assassin's "Mighty Blow", but it did not come with any extraordinary power. It only increased the speed and strength to the maximum and punched "Dreamwalker" on the chest, making a "bang" sound.

The latter suddenly rolled his eyes, fell softly to the ground, and fell into a baby-like sleep.
