Chapter 376 Chapter 59 Why doesn't she scream?
Alice stood there in a daze, announcing the end of the farce. Cattleya took the opportunity to point at the rusty thing in Nina's hand that was hard to tell as a metal bar and asked:
"Is this part of the steel buildings?"
"Yes, Captain, you know, I don't know much about history and mysticism, so I can only bring some back for you to study. You are an expert in this field." Nina said as she handed over the "metal bar".
Alice was also not good at history and mysticism, but she had other ways to solve the problem. She looked at Cattleya:
"Can I try?"
Cattleya handed it over without hesitation.
Alice took the "metal bar" and tried to find its source. A chaotic picture flashed by, and the last picture that was frozen was a collapsed and decayed steel building and a well.
The well mouth was not big, but it was very deep. The deep black seemed to have a strong attraction, leading people to fall. When the faint whispers sounded from a place that seemed far away and close to the ears, the pictures shattered.
"Bang!"
The "metal bar" fell on the deck, but Alice had no time to pay attention to it. She subconsciously reached out to cover her ears.
This was actually ineffective and could not stop the transmission of whispers at all, but Alice was not worried. When the light she had hidden reappeared, she knew she was safe.
After calming down, Alice looked up and found that the people present were normal and seemed not to notice what had happened. Even Cattleya, who was most likely to be affected, just frowned and looked at her with worry in her eyes.
As for whether she was worried about Alice or the "Future", it was hard to say - after all, the loss of control of an angel was not a trivial matter no matter where it was placed.
Hey, she should not have shown any signs of losing control just now...?
Alice recalled the ugly flesh buds in her memory, frowned in disgust, and felt very resistant to becoming like that.
However, how come they are fine...
Alice blinked, and the doubts flashed through her mind. She didn't dwell on it.
After all, this is too normal. Maybe everyone felt uncomfortable in their eyes and rubbed their eyes at the same time, and just missed that period of time.
What's strange? For fate, nothing is strange.
Alice is more concerned about other issues, such as - where did the collapsed steel building come from?
For this question, the spirit world has never given any feedback. She now knows as much about the building as Nina - no, maybe not as much as Nina.
This cognition made Alice unhappy. She glanced at Nina calmly and decided to find an opportunity to scare her.
"...As expected," Alice picked up the "metal bar" and returned it to Cattleya, "For similar questions... divination really won't give any feedback."
This is Alice's guess based on the fact that Roselle's diary has not been cracked - divination probably won't give any feedback about the civilization that existed before the First Epoch.
The essence of divination is to obtain information through the spirit world, that is, the spirit world has no information from earlier times...
Alice's eyes flickered, and then she said to Nina without any emotion:
"Continue."
This gesture finally made Alice get rid of the image of an underage girl. Nina instantly became much more nervous than when she was asked by Cattleya. In the following answer, she lost the intention to joke.
She pointed to the remaining black soil with honeycombs on the surface and said:
"Not far from the steel ruins, I found the well. It's really not big. Even if you go to Nas to find a child, you can't get in.
"This is the soil in the inner layer of the deep well. It's very deep. I even feel that it has no bottom. In the environment there, its interior was dark, as if something was slowly calling me, yes, slowly.
"I found a few stones nearby and threw them in, but there was no response. In short, it was full of water."
"Calling..." Alice frowned and repeated the word.
She remembered many things in an instant, such as the extraordinary characteristics of "Lucky" that she had no impression of, such as the bottle of tempting "Disaster Priest" potion, such as the dazzling "Winner" extraordinary characteristics...
These are all temptations.
So, what is calling?
Alice frowned and looked in a certain direction, the direction she thought belonged to the West Continent.
There is something calling her there.
Alice closed her eyes, waved those things away, and shifted her attention to the present.
In fact, this is a good opportunity to scare Nina... Alice turned to Nina, and suddenly realized this. She said in a soft but emotionless voice:
"You should be thankful.
"Your sequence is not high enough, and you don't stay there long enough. "
"What will happen otherwise? "Alice's rare reliable state attracted Cattleya's attention.
Well done, Ms. "Hermit"!
"Otherwise?" Alice excitedly praised Cattleya in her heart, but glanced at Cattleya lightly, and her voice was vague, "Otherwise, it would probably melt in it, right?"
Well, that's it, add some more ingredients...
After a slight pause, Alice turned to Nina again, curled up the corners of her lips, showed a soft smile and said:
"It's just like the potion you drank~"
Nina's face turned pale in an instant, her legs softened and she fell to the ground, opened her mouth, and didn't make a sound for a long time.
…Why didn’t she scream?
Alice frowned and looked at her for a while, then turned to ask Klein: “Will people not scream when they are too scared?”
…She was really scaring people on purpose again.
Klein did not doubt the truth of Alice’s words. He was familiar enough with Alice, so he could tell the difference between Alice’s lies and serious words.
She was definitely telling the truth—but she was definitely scaring people on purpose.
But this was mild enough compared to Alice’s past jokes, so he just glared at Alice before saying to Cattleya:
“It seems that going down the well to explore is not a good idea.”
As for comforting Nina—that was not his responsibility.
Cattleya obviously agreed with this.
She nodded, as a response to Gehrman Sparrow’s words, and the next question was how to comfort Nina.
For a pirate with Feysac blood, this matter was both simple and difficult.
——Under the influence of alcohol, Nina successfully forgot her fear and even invited Alice to drink with her when she passed by.
…What an amazing self-regulation ability.
Alice was once again shocked by human feelings. She left the scene with mixed feelings and decided to eat an ice cream to calm down.
