Unyielding

After listening to Lumian's words, Franca blurted out. "Fuck! Is it related to those people again?"

"What does Hugues Artois want to do?"

"I don't understand the significance of creating such a Chemical Factory explosion... Maybe it's just a coincidence. Bono Goodwell and Hugues Artois have a very good relationship. It's normal to visit him. It just happened that Chemical Factory exploded today..." Lumian said thoughtfully.

You can't despise every coincidence in life, but you can't treat every coincidence as a problem either.

Franca nodded slightly and said, "Indeed.

"But I must remind you that the Chemical Factory explosion is not meaningless. It may have brought many deaths, which is very important to many evil Rituals. The living are always the third best Sacrifice."

"This can also be a Ritual?" Lumian was quite shocked.

Franca corrected. "Part of Ritual, killing Sacrifice with a knife and killing Sacrifice with an Chemical Factory explosion, there is no essential difference for the Deity that the Ritual host wants to pray for. Your understanding of Ritual Magic is still too one-sided. Of course, some Ritual may require the creation of similar explosions to be effective."

This is just like in "Substitution", before Ritual is held, the "substitute" is allowed to live as Substitute for a long enough time? Lumian probably understands.

Franca then sighed:

"This is just a guess of mine, and it does not mean it is true. Maybe the coincidence you mentioned is the correct answer, but no matter what, we need to remind Official Beyonder, pay attention to the traces of Ritual, and pay attention to the role Parliamentarian’s Office played in this Calamity.

"Damn it, if that's not Member of Parliament, I'm going to catch him tonight, hang him from the ceiling, whip him, and ask him what he wants to do and what his relationship is with those Evil God believers.

"Hey, in the explosion just now, I don't know how many people lost their parents, husbands, wives, brothers, sisters or children. I don't know how many people are praying, worrying and Pain for their injured relatives."

"For example, Jenna." Lumian said following the trend.

Franca was stunned for a second:

"What did you say?"

"Jenna's mother works at Goodwell Chemical Factory, don't you know?" Lumian asked in return.

Franca was stunned for a moment, then asked with concern, "How is her mother doing now?"

Lumian briefly talked about how he and Jenna rushed to Rue Saint-Ger to find Elodie, and used the remaining Healing Potion to rescue Elodie from the edge of Near-Death.

Franca breathed a sigh of relief, and then said with heartache, "Why am I not there! Why am I not there!"

Lumian's mouth twitched and he said calmly, "You still have a chance now, Jenna is worried about the cost of subsequent treatment."

"I'll go Holy Palace Hospital right away!" Franca's eyes lit up and he was about to rush out Apartment.

Lumian quickly called her:

"Don't forget to bring Stinger Gang and Healing Potion. I'm worried that the situation will happen again."

Just like Mr. Roul.

Without waiting for Franca to respond, he added, "Also, help Jenna wear the skirt Past wore this morning.

"Well... I want to borrow 4000 Felkine from you, using half of 'Harvest Sacrifice' as collateral. I have collected all the Auxiliary Ingredient of 'Pyromaniac' Potion."

"So fast?" Franca looked shocked, "I haven't even started looking for you yet!"

Lumian smiled and said, "I met Boss at the door of Parliamentarian’s Office last night. I confessed to him that I was about to be promoted and had paid a sum of money in advance, and asked him to help me pay attention to Auxiliary Ingredient of 'Pyromaniac' Potion."

Franca The more I listened, the more complicated my expression became:

"You are more thoughtful than I thought... Confessing to Gardner is indeed the best way to deal with this matter.

"However, can't you consider me? Do you know that I also want to help you collect Auxiliary Ingredient of 'Pyromaniac'Potion through Gardner. He is 'Hunter'Pathway's Sequence 6'Conspirer' or Sequence 5, and there are a group of 'Hunter' around, so there will be no shortage of similar things. Fortunately, fortunately, I haven't gone to him in the past two days, otherwise he will definitely suspect that I have an affair with you."

Lumian always thought that Franca would search for information through Curly-Haired Baboon Research Society. Unexpectedly, based on the principle of proximity and convenience, she planned to go to Gardner·Martin for help, which almost caused the private relationship between the two to be exposed.

Franca returned to the room, took out Banknotes worth 4000 Felkine from somewhere, handed it to Lumian, and solemnly told him:

"After getting Main Ingredient, don't rush to deploy Potion. You must ensure that your condition can withstand the Impact brought by promotion, otherwise it is best to postpone it for a while. Main Ingredient is much easier to save than Potion."

"I know very well." Lumian replied calmly.

He thought for a moment and then said, "You'd better contact the authorities first before looking for Jenna. The explosion happened not long ago, and there may be some clues left."

"Yeah." Franca agreed.

m•hetushu•com•com Lumian asked curiously before leaving:

"A living person is the third best Sacrifice, so what is the difference between the second best and the first best?"

"The second best is a creature with Beyonder Characteristic. The first best is..." At this point, Franca smiled, "Half-God."

Noel District, Holy Palace Hospital sixth floor.

When Jenna returned to the ward from Washroom, he saw his brother Julian helping his mother Elodie to tuck the corner of the quilt inside.

Elodie is still unconscious, but his complexion has improved a bit.

Julian stood up, pulled his sister aside, and whispered, "Celia, you don't have to worry about the subsequent treatment costs. I will find a way. You continue to learn your drama performance at Old Pigeon Cage."

Jenna felt warm in his heart and asked, "Doctor told you?"

"Well, that's what I just said." Julian nodded heavily.

Jenna pursed his lips and said, "Don't worry, my friends have agreed to lend me money, which can be repaid in three years with very low interest. It should be enough for me to Underground Singer and you to save a little on our income as workers, and it will not affect our respective duties as Apprentice."

Julian was silent for a few seconds and said, "That Charles?"

"Yes, he is one of them, but there are other friends, well, the 'Red Boots' Franca I mentioned last night." Jenna felt that she had to explain this matter clearly, otherwise she would worry that her brother would go to extremes.

She remembered that the year before last, Julian wanted to secretly sell himself to Beyran-Pass Import and Export Company behind his mother's back to work as a desperate mercenary in order to repay all the debts and send his sister to the theater as a performer Apprentice. Fortunately, he was stopped later.

Julian Just when he was about to say something, he saw a tall girl with a slender figure appearing at the door of the ward.

She was wearing Lady’s shirt, light-colored breeches, a black-and-white-checked tweed top and red boots. Her long hair, which was Linen-Colored, was simply tied into a ponytail, and her eyebrows flew into her temples. Eyes was bright and energetic, and she had a Charm look that people couldn't take their eyes off.

Jenna happily welcomed Past:

"Franca."

Within White Coat Street, Safe House.

Holy Star Lily has been purchased and Lumian, who is distilling and extracting Hydrosol, sat down and waited for the reply from "Magician" Lady.

Fire Salamander's blood, Magma Pyroxene powder, and Red-Crowned Impatiens powder were lined up on Desk in front of him.

When Holy Star Lily Hydrosol was about to be prepared, the "Puppet" wearing a light gold skirt, with delicate features but slightly weird forearm height appeared on the window sill.

It put down a metal biscuit box, sniffed and said, "I will use this Hydrosol next time you summon me."

"Okay." The other party's request was so weird that Lumian didn't react for a while and could only answer instinctively.

Soon, "Puppet"Messenger disappeared in front of his eyes. Lumian opened the lid of the bright silver biscuit box and saw the silent Burning small crimson "heart".

Without hesitation, he took the prepared beer glass and shook "Pyromaniac" Beyonder Characteristic into it.

Immediately afterwards, Lumian poured a little more than 50 ml of Fire Salamander's blood into the cup.

A sizzling sound suddenly sounded, and the red liquid evaporated a lot, turning into blood mist, lingering around the "heart".

"Pyromaniac" Beyonder Characteristic is much softer than before, and the surface is like lake water, with layers of ripples.

As Lumian put Magma Pyroxene powder, Red-Crowned Impatiens powder and Holy Star Lily Hydrosol into the beer cup according to Potion Formula's request, the blood mist lingering around the "heart" suddenly shrank inward, leaving a lot of yellowish liquid with red bubbles floating there.

This is "Pyromaniac" Potion, which reflects Eyes of Lumian.

Lumian did not rush to take it, but closed his eyes.

Madman appeared in his mind Flamang Corpse hanging on the window frame and White Paper who wrote each other's suicide notes, Mr. Roul who died of ulcers all over his body emerged, Mrs. Michel who drank heavily, sang songs loudly, and finally hung herself in the morning light, emerged, and the cries one after another on Siren Square emerged.

Then he saw himself who was stubborn and stubborn when he was wandering, saw himself who still didn't give up despite being hit again and again, saw another ending of himself, saw the sadness, unwillingness, powerlessness and depression of trying to pursue hope but being buried by darkness. hetushu·com·com.

Destiny's ridicule sounded in his ears, and the fire he tried to suppress in his heart surged up, becoming more intense:

If this is my inevitable end;

If this is Dust's Predestination's Destiny;

If efforts are not rewarded, if hope can never be reached;

Then I will use my life to fight and change everything!

Even if there is no light on the road ahead and hope is extremely slim, I will continue to fight until death!

Fuck you Member of Parliament!

Fuck you Guillaume·Béné!

Fuck your Evil God faith!

Fuck you Termiboros!

Fuck you Fate!

Lumian opened his eyes and summed up his last sentence "Provocateur" Acting Principle:

Provocation is a symbol of unyielding!

He didn't need this to help him digest. With the fire in his chest Burning, he picked up the beer glass and drank the liquid inside.

It was like a high-temperature flame, burning from his mouth to his esophagus, burning to his stomach, and burning to his heart.
