MTL - Age of Mysticism-Chapter 472 give me time for another song
The Kestrel in the cab of the front of the car uttered the secret language, and the secret technique that Luke arranged here in advance was activated. The door leading to the driver's cab is opened and stretched, and the light curtain is blurred and transparent during the stretch, showing a stage behind.
The lights shine from above, and several puppets appear in the middle of the stage.
Looking at the stage setting is a secret room, one of the puppet figures fell on his back to the ground, with a blood-dripping dagger stuck in his chest, and the other puppet figures wore different clothes to represent their different identities.
The puppet show in black and white was also started at the same time.
Luke patted the empty space beside him, and said to the sandpaper: "Sit next to me. This secret technique is very dangerous. I must always remind Kestrel what to do. If she makes a wrong move, she and Boiling will die."
Sandpaper sat down beside Luke obediently immediately, and asked, "My lord governor, is the secret technique you arranged not activated?"
"Started, listen!"
A musical prelude sounded at this time.
Then Kestrel and Boiling walked onto the stage from the backstage, and the puppet show began to recite the narration, introducing the process of the murder. The combination of the tune of the music and the narration of the puppet show turned out to be like the BGM specially added for the plot, which can really bring out the artistic conception of the plot.
Sandpaper was a little surprised and asked: "Could it be that the two secret arts are mixed together?"
"It should be..." While the narration of the puppet show was not over, Luke quickly said to the sandpaper: "Now Kestrel and Boiling are detectives and detective assistants in the puppet show. They can't leave the stage range, and they can't cast magic and war. He can only infer the murderer's guilt based on the clues found in the plot.
As for the secret technique I arranged... After the prelude to the song, everyone in the secret technique must sing along with the lyrics. Those who can’t sing will be punished and mentally attacked for 30 seconds. During this period, the body will dance to the music.
After a song ends, the person who has been mentally attacked for the longest time will be severely weakened. "
Sandpaper said with a strange expression: "How can there be such a strange secret technique?"
"Secret techniques are inherently weird, and the people who developed this technique like to compete with others." Luke said with a smile, "I originally wanted you to activate this secret technique, but I didn't expect it to be Kestrel. Listen Listening to Kestrel sing is also good, this kid is usually too serious."
Sandpaper didn't expect that she was almost tricked by Luke, but she could hear the kestrel singing, and she immediately forgave Luke.
But after thinking about it, she couldn't help worrying and said: "If the kestrel can't sing, won't it be troublesome?"
"What's the trouble with this? If you can't sing, you can dance. After a song is over, your strength will be weakened. Isn't there us outside? What I'm worried about is..."
"What are you afraid of?"
"My secret technique and Belgar's secret technique have merged. I'm afraid we are going to watch a musical."
"ah!"
Facts have proved that Luke's concern was correct. The prelude to the music ended with the narration of the puppet show, the singing part was interrupted, and the plot began.
Because the dialogue between Luke and the puppet waiter was not connected, the puppet show was randomly assigned to "Kob Toast's Secret Chamber".
The plot is a serial murder case in a manor. In the whole case, seven people were killed successively, the manor owner, the second son of the manor owner, the cook, the groom, the guard, the maid, and the gardener. All the dead died in the secret room. Although the murder methods in the secret room were all deciphered after investigation and reasoning, the murderer was still not found.
Now the stage is the first act of the puppet show. The manor owner died in the closed cellar, and the detective came on stage to investigate the case.
People trapped in the secret arts should not think about how to find out the murderer first, but how to avoid being killed. Although this secret technique has never been cracked by players, it is also a popular competition among players to see who can live the longest.
The puppet show started, and Luke said to the sandpaper: "Let the kestrel talk to the cook first, go to the kitchen to check today's dinner, and you can find a table knife in the kitchen."
Sandpaper told Kestrel about Luke's strategy through the telepathy between the sisters.
Kestrel immediately approached the cook with a boil, asking to check today's dinner.
The cook agreed, and the scenery on the stage became a kitchen.
Kestrel obtained a table knife according to Luke's instructions.
Then Kestrel brought the cook and Boiling back to the scene of the crime.
At this time, the music suddenly sounded, and after a brief intro, it came to the lyrics.
The name of the song is "Moonlight Song under the Night Wind". It is a song written by Brutov, a well-known composer in Raging City. It tells the story of a pair of lovers walking in the night wind.
The tune of the song is extremely beautiful, and the singing degree is very high.
Kestrel learned the secret art rule of "Give me time for a song" in the announcement of the sandpaper, and immediately hummed along with the lyrics after the prelude ended.
What is unexpected is that Kestrel has an excellent voice, singing the artistic conception in the lyrics along with the melody, making people feel as if they can really see a couple in love walking under the moonlight.
As for the rest…
The puppet figures will definitely not be able to sing "Moonlight Song under the Night Wind", and dance to the singing of the kestrel one by one. Even the puppets acting as corpses on the ground danced along, and the soft dance steps seemed to be professional dancers.
Boiling can't sing, just dance along. He walked lightly, and he couldn't tell that it was a heavyweight war machine at all.
In addition to the puppets and boiling, there is an extra dancer on the stage.
He wore a black smock, his face hidden in the shadow of the hood. In the singing, his dance steps were very unnatural, as if he was being held by some kind of force and danced there in resistance. He escaped like turning into black mist several times, but every time he was pulled back and continued to jump, his movements were as stiff as a zombie.
Just like that, Luke and Kestrel in the auditorium were drinking tea while admiring the grotesque appearance on the stage.
Between black and white tones, horror comes with some comical touches.
A "Moonlight Song Under the Night Wind" ends, and the puppet show continues. In the strategy provided by Luke, Kestrel obtained another worn-out leather armor from the guards of the manor. With weapons and protective gear, the murderer dare not kill easily, and Kestrel and Boiling can survive until the next scene begins.
Then Luke directed the Kestrel to collect information, and before the end of the first act, he was locked up as the second son of the manor owner with the greatest suspicion.
The second deceased in the serial murder case of "Kob Toast's Secret Room" was the manor owner's second son, and the place of death was in the manor prison. Give the murderer a head, and he won't kill the detective.
The first act of the puppet show ended, and the music rang again during the cutscene.
"The Thousand Nights of Leaving Home" tells the story of a traveler's homesickness that suddenly arises in his heart when he is camping in the mountains.
This song is not as widely sung as "Moonlight under the Night Wind", and the continuous tone shift in the bass part makes it difficult for most people to sing it completely.
As a result, after the prelude ended, the kestrel sang along with the tune again.
The bass shift was so clear and smooth that Luke couldn't help applauding. He said to the sandpaper: "I didn't expect the kestrel to sing so well! If you follow my plan, singing on it will definitely not have such an effect."
Sandpaper's face was black: "I'll tell Miss Clear Sky what you want to play tricks on me, and she will definitely help me out."
"Don't be so narrow-minded." Luke said with a smile: "Actually, your voice is very distinctive and has a unique sense of metal. I think you five sisters can form a band...Think about it."
Regarding Luke's joke, Sandpaper actually considered it very seriously.
On the stage, puppets and boiling accompanied the singing of the kestrel, and the hidden third apostle, Belgar, was dragged out again, and danced along with him in an awkward dance.
At this moment, Belgar wanted to die.
He couldn't figure out how someone could develop such a perverted secret technique. Because I can't sing, my mind is constantly being attacked, and my body is out of control. I am dragged into various poses like a marionette.
This secret technique is placed in the cab of the front of the train.
This is a trap!
The assassination had long been expected by the opponent.
After the train was pulled into the space set up by the abyss mage, the person arranged by the other party in the cab at the front of the train immediately started the train, causing the abyss mage who hadn't entered the compartment in time to fall into the space turbulence. At the same time, the changing spatial coordinates of the train also prevent the joint secret technique from being developed in a compound way, greatly reducing the power of the secret technique.
The opponent guessed that he would come to the cab of the train first to stop the train, and arranged a secret technique here in advance.
Now my own secret technique is fused with the opponent's secret technique, and a stage of the puppet show will be forced to perform a song and dance.
After dancing, my body will become weak.
One more dance, weaker body.
It's like comparing who will die first in the opponent's secret technique.
The second song ended, and Belga retreated to the backstage of the stage. Another loss of strength made him worry that if he played a few more songs, he would die from exhaustion.
On the contrary, in his own puppet show, the other party looked confident and confident.
Thinking of the man in the auditorium being able to stop the puppet show from starting, Belgar lost his previous confidence in the secret technique he designed.
Can he crack this mortal secret?
Thinking of the death of the four abyssal apostles, thinking of the mysterious elf Qingkong, and looking at the man in the auditorium drinking tea and applauding.
Belgar feels that he is the buffoon in the whole show.
End the secret technique and escape from here before dying from exhaustion.
The second act of the puppet show was halfway through, and the moment the music sounded again, Belga immediately released the secret technique "Puppet show in black and white tones".
The black and white receded, and the carriage regained its color.
The puppets all turned into dust and disappeared, but the stage was still there. And the music stopped abruptly, making Kestrel, who was ready to sing, hold back his breath.
Two secret techniques are fused, one of which is released, and the other is also difficult to maintain.
Belga in a black robe appeared on the stage, and then turned into black smoke and flashed behind the kestrel. A black mist-like rope strangled the kestrel's neck.
Belga hid behind the kestrel, poked out half of his head and looked at Luke: "If I'm not wrong, you should be a meteor."
Luke pressed the sandpaper that wanted to fly, sat firmly and replied to Belga: "You guessed it, I am a meteor."
Red light flashed in Baikal's eyes: "Answer my question, and I will let her go."
"go ahead!"
"How do you know my secrets better than me?"
Luke smiled and replied: "Belga, you like reasoning very much, and you are also very smart. If he hadn't been transformed into an abyss apostle by the influence of the abyss, he would be a very famous detective.
Use your reasoning to analyze, is the life of my follower enough to exchange this secret? "
Belgar thought for a while.
This secret has already killed four abyss apostles, forced the first apostle to leave, and he himself was caught in an ambush. It is indeed not a follower's life that can be exchanged.
"Okay... Let me change the question. Is there anyone among the apostles who provides information for Clear Sky."
"No!" Luke said truthfully.
But Belga didn't believe it: "Don't lie to me! If there were no apostles to provide you with information, how could you know so many secrets of the Abyss Temple.
Tell me the truth, or I'll literally kill her! "
"Yes!" Since the other party didn't believe the truth, Luke had no choice but to lie: "But I won't say who he is, it's not you anyway."
"Sure enough, someone betrayed us." After getting the desired answer, Belga said: "Actually, when Victor left, I guessed who betrayed the temple, and now I'm even more sure it's him.
You said that the Tedgar Hills have officially started the process of being incorporated into the empire directly because you control the Abyss Temple, and the Celtic Duke thinks he controls the Abyss Temple.
You shouldn't be too complacent to tell your plan, let me see the face of a traitor.
Goodbye, Meteor, I will go find Victor, and we will retake the Abyss Temple. "
this…
It can only be said that reading comprehension is something that everyone has their own ideas. Moreover, abyssalization will completely change a person, not only the body, Belga also loses the spirituality in the previous reasoning, and the professional becomes an amateur.
Moreover, he himself does not have this awareness, and feels that his reasoning is still very good.
It is to let him go and let the Abyss Temple continue to fight. Or take this opportunity to kill Belgar and pick up another bead.
Behind the Kestrel, Belgar began to mist.
The stage also began to shrink.
The influence of the secret technique ended, giving Belgar a chance to escape.
The stage closed into a door.
Luke said to the sandpaper: "Let Kestrel say another secret phrase: 'Give me another song time'."
The connecting door that had just been closed suddenly reopened, the light curtain faded, and the cab at the front of the train changed back to the stage.
Lights come down from above.
This time there is no puppet show set, and no puppets.
On the stage, there are only kestrels standing side by side, Boiling, and the bewildered third apostle Baikal.
What's the situation, isn't the secret technique over?
How did it start again!
Music starts.
Kestrel cleared his throat and prepared to sing.
Boiling moves his legs and feet, his power comes from steam, and the weakening of energy does not affect his actions. He is going to dance a few more dances for Sister Kestrel.
Under the auditorium, Luke raised his legs and said to the sandpaper: "The new stage is set, go get the governor a new cup of tea."
Sandpaper saw that the kestrel was safe and sound, and immediately agreed to go find the teapot.
In the melody, Kestrel showed off its voice.
Boiling and Belgar swayed with the singing.
