Release that Witch - Chapter 1246
[Chapter 1114 Part 2 Specter]
Two days later, the moment Victor was looking forward to the most finally arrived.
The premiere of “Dust of Annihilation” was scheduled to start at 3:00 p.m., and he arrived at the entrance of the theater early, waiting for the ticket check to enter.
I haven’t seen it for a year, and the theater specially built for the ghosts has expanded a lot. Not only have several new viewing rooms been added, but also a waiting hall and courtyard have been added outside.
Although he arrived half an hour earlier, many people still gathered in the hall.
“This is Mr. Jia Moore from the Crescent Bay Chamber of Commerce. It’s a pleasure to meet you.”
“Where is it, I didn’t expect to see Chen Xi’s big businessman here, please take care of me for business in the future.”
“Isn’t that standing there the pillar of the Kajin Troupe? I don’t know if I can see the master himself.”
“If you know him, please introduce me.”
“No problem at all.”
The crowd gathered together in twos and threes, chatting with each other.
Just as he expected, those who can afford dozens of Golden Dragon tickets are basically upper-class celebrities, and this is also one of the hidden values of the premiere ticket.
“Hey, isn’t this Mr. Victor? I heard that you have changed careers and are no longer in the jewelry business?” Occasionally, someone in the crowd would recognize him.
“We’re still doing it, it’s just that the economy hasn’t been good recently.”
“I like the new bed from your chamber of commerce. After the hotel changed it, there are many repeat customers. I want to order another 100 sets.”
“Thank you for your affirmation. After watching the specter, we can make an appointment to talk in detail.”
“Okay, then it’s settled.”
Linglong on the side was stunned, probably for her, it was really unimaginable for her to reach a deal of dozens or even hundreds of golden dragons casually.
After finally waiting for no one to talk to him, he quietly pulled the corner of LaVictor’s clothes, “Sir, are these people here to see the phantom or to discuss business? And I saw that many people didn’t know you before , are you not afraid that they will lie to you?”
“Don’t worry, it’s just a common thing for businessmen, just get used to it.” Victor smiled. After all, businessmen who are willing to buy premiere tickets are a kind of strength in themselves. largely recognized by others.
The phantom is not a real thing, and there will be nothing left after watching it, so in a sense, it is more convincing than a full body of jewelry necklaces.
Just as he was explaining while walking, he suddenly collided with someone passing by.
“Ah… sorry,” Victor noticed that the other party was a woman, and expressed his apology first, but when he saw the appearance of being hit, he couldn’t help but froze.
It was a lifeless face, not bad in terms of facial features alone, if it was dressed up a bit, it should be above Linglong.
But the pale complexion and empty eyes almost ruined all of this, and one could not help feeling disgusted and far away—such a gloomy expression was really incompatible with the atmosphere in the hall.
The woman didn’t say anything, just glanced at him, and continued to walk forward expressionlessly.
What a weirdo… Victor muttered to himself.
“Sir!” Linglong, who hadn’t noticed this scene at all, grabbed his hand and yelled, “The phantom is about to start, let’s go in!”
“Ah… um.” Victor shook his head, put this unhappiness behind him, and followed Linglong to the viewing room.
…
“What happened just now?” Joe looked at Farina worriedly.
“It’s nothing,” Farina said in a low voice, “It’s just that someone didn’t pay attention to the road. Let’s go, since you brought me here, don’t just stand there in a daze.”
“That’s true.” Joe hesitated to take her hand, but in the end he couldn’t reach out. “Don’t forget that I’m always by your side.”
Farina didn’t answer, and following him here was the biggest reward she could give.
It has been nearly half a year since I came to Neverwinter, and those ancient witches who claimed to be from more than 400 years ago did not lie. Her injuries were healed little by little, and she was completely unable to move to now able to walk independently.
Although the whips and burns on her body still exist, Farina has no complaints. If she is a witch who falls into the hands of the church, her fate will only be tens of millions of times worse than this – she can do this for the enemy, she What else is there to say?
However, the expected trial never came. Even the King of Graycastle didn’t meet her. Instead, he sent someone to ask her dozens of questions, but nothing came up.
She deliberately lied about some questions, trying to arouse the other party’s anger, but in exchange for that, she laughed indistinctly.
After being released from prison, Joe bought a house to settle her in.
Unlike her, Joe, who used to be a nobleman, quickly got a job in the administrative department and quickly adapted to his new identity—in other words, he shouldn’t have been a church member in the first place.
But this did not bring Farina a chance, on the contrary it was still a kind of torture.
Because the longer she stayed in Neverwinter and the deeper she got to know the city, the more she realized the mistakes of the church.
Witches have nothing to do with hell devils. Except for their magical powers, they are usually no different from ordinary people.
And Roland Wimbledon, who used the power of a witch, did not turn his city into a magic cave. Even a blind man could not deny the prosperity here.
On one side is the church she has devoted to for half her life, and on the other side is the denial of everything she has done. The two conflicting thoughts alternately make Farina extremely painful.
Maybe this is a kind of trial in itself, and sometimes it is even more tormented than torture.
If it wasn’t for Joe still needing her, she might have chosen to kill herself.
Even so, Farina didn’t know how long she could last, and she faintly felt that the two tickets sent by the Star Flower Troupe might be the last straw that overwhelmed her.
Kakin Firth must have been entrusted by Roland to write this script. The purpose is undoubtedly to completely reverse the world’s view of the church and further consolidate the Wimbledon family’s throne.
She could already imagine that from now on, the church would become the object of everyone’s disdain, Lord Tucker Thor’s last effort… and the countless Judgment Army who sacrificed on the city wall like him, are just a joke.
Farina didn’t want to see this moment come, but she agreed to Joe’s invitation anyway.
Just like she despised those high-level church leaders who had fled, but still accepted their entrustment and stood up to stabilize the order of Hermes.
Just because she was needed by Joe.
But… this is probably the last thing she can do in return.
The lights dimmed.
When darkness enveloped the entire viewing room, the specter began.
…
The beginning of the story took place on the Hermes Plateau more than 300 years ago. The new holy city is still a block of stones. The picture flies over the steep mountain wall, and after leaping over a vast snow field, you can have a panoramic view of the big gap in the Impassable Mountains. .
Although he has had the experience of watching the phantom several times, when this scene overlooking the earth appeared in his eyes, Victor still felt the trembling directly to his heart.
On the other side of the big gap, he saw many believers busy building their new city, as if this was really the world three hundred years ago.
After a while, the screen was drawn to the ground again, and fell vertically into a huge pit——under the introduction of the narration, Victor heard the name of the church’s core institution “Privy Council” for the first time.
From the whispers around him, it was clear that other people felt similarly to him.
Starting from the unknown secrets is the most attractive topic, and the promotion of “the history that only the royal family is qualified to know in the past” has greatly boosted the interest of the audience.
Soon, Victor’s attention was completely absorbed by the story.
According to legend, every four hundred years, the world will usher in a disaster. At that time, a huge red moon will hang high in the sky, and countless enemies pouring out of hell will devour the human kingdom.
In order to survive, the witch pinned her hope on a kind of extraordinary power, which needs to fuse the blood of the witch and the soul of the warrior to form a steel body that does not fear magic power or pain – God’s Punishment Warrior.
In order to ensure the implementation of the plan, the witch established a church and began to screen and train qualified candidates.
The protagonist of the story is a witch and the next pope of the church.
Another important role is the guardian of the Pope and the head of the Judgment Legion.
Just like most dramas, after a period of time, the two have been together, from contempt for each other, to recognition of each other, to love each other, and gradually become a pair of inseparable lovers.
The witch and the guardian even made a promise that when a new pope successor is found, the two will undergo the transformation ceremony of the God’s Punishment Army together and become an inseparable symbiosis.
This relationship was mellowly described by Kajin Firth. Whether it is the way of expression or the actor’s lines, it can be said that it is the culmination of decades of skill.
Coupled with the excellent performance of the Star Flower Troupe, all the audience were immersed in a touching atmosphere, and Linglong even cried softly for the promise of the two.

However, the plot took a sharp turn so far. The guardian’s father, tempted by power, designed to frame the current pope and put the crown on his head.
As the successor, the witch naturally became his next thorn in the eye. He ordered his son to hand over the other’s head, but was flatly refused by the guardian.
This rebellion has been planned for a long time, and when the rebels raised the curtain, everything was irreparable.
In desperation, the two chose to escape from Hermes, trying to bring the news to the king under the plateau.
And the guardian’s father also tore away the last trace of worry, and sent his own soldiers to intercept the two of them halfway, obviously no longer intending to give them a way out.
The final climax was staged in Coldwind Ridge, Greycastle.
A team of judges quickly caught up with the witch and the guardian. Given the large gap in numbers, the death of both of them seemed to be a foregone conclusion.
Just when Victor could hardly bear to watch any more, something incredible happened——
“Please help us, please!” The panting guardian suddenly turned around and reached out to grab his arm. The hardness and coldness of the gauntlets clearly passed to Victor through his clothes.
At that moment, an indescribable tremor rose from under his feet, and instantly flooded his whole body!
He couldn’t help screaming out!
“There, take them down!”
“The rebels are all regarded as fellow party members, and they will be shot to death!” The pursuers shouted one after another while raising their crossbows.
“I, I’m not…” Victor felt his throat dry, and he couldn’t complete the sentence for a long time, but the trial warrior opposite had already pulled the trigger.
A crossbow arrow almost flew past his cheek!
At the same time, there was a slight stabbing pain.
Victor touched his cheek tremblingly, and put his fingers in front of his eyes.
I saw a faint scarlet streak left on it.
