Time in a collapsing world

"She's in there."

Apponia took Destobia to the deepest place and showed her the cell where Nelle was imprisoned.

"Um……"

Destobia walked over silently, and Aponya followed her.

As Destobia got closer, she also saw that not only Nier was imprisoned in the cell, but also other members of the Fire Chaser Moth. They were all currently known to be controlled by the Eighth Herrscher.

It seemed that she heard the footsteps of the two of them. Nier, who was sitting on the ground with her head lowered, suddenly raised her head and stared at Destobia, who was looking at her silently outside the cell with blood-red eyes, and then she seemed to be going crazy. He stood up and hit the railing with a "bang". He grabbed the cell door with one hand and shook it wildly. The other hand stretched out as hard as possible through the gap in the cell door, as if he wanted to pinch the person who was close to him. Destobia's neck was close at hand.

Not only Nier, but also her other inmates were like this. They all crowded in front of the bars of the cell and screamed with unknown meaning, as if they had completely lost their minds.

"They already became like this when they were imprisoned here."

Apponia didn't show much emotion when looking at the crazy scene in front of her, and still explained to Destobia calmly.

"...Can they really all return to normal?"

Destobia looked at Aponia with hopeful eyes. Although they were all spiritual types, her own spiritual power was still too weak compared to Aponia. She wanted to offset the ability of the Eighth Herrscher. , only Aponya can do it now.

"Yes, but it will take some time."

Aponya gave an affirmative answer, "Don't worry, I can handle it if these are the only people."

"um. Thank you!"

Destobia thanked her partner. It was great that nothing would happen to Nier.

"Well, then I will first..."

Halfway through her words, Aponya suddenly frowned, which was a particularly rare expression on her face.

"What, what's wrong?"

Feeling the sudden change in the aura around Aponia, Destobia immediately realized that something unexpected had happened, so she suppressed her panic and asked.

Before Aponya could explain, she saw those who were going crazy beating the railings more violently, as if they were on stimulants, and a "dinging, clanking" sound resounded throughout the deepest place. .

Not only that, similar sounds came from other cells, and more and more prisoners joined the ranks of banging on the cell doors, becoming new crazy people.

"Thousands of calamities...!"

Apponia watched this scene and hurried to Qianjie's cell. Fortunately, he did not fall into madness like those people, but fell into a deep sleep, but Apponia could see that this was also [infected] One of the symptoms.

"The Eighth Herrscher takes action..."

Aponya touched her forehead. She could feel that her thoughts were affected to a certain extent. Fortunately, she had already used [Commandments] to protect herself, otherwise she might also suffer a hidden loss.

Thinking of this, Aponya looked for Destobia again, but found that she was not affected in any way. It seems that not everyone will be affected by this attack, but...

Aponia quickly passed through the middle passage of the cells on both sides and checked a little. There were only a few people who could still stay awake in this situation. In other words, most people could not escape this time. The Herrscher's Raid.

"Destobia, come here."

Apponia waved to Destobia and called the lucky girl over.

"how……"

As soon as Destobia came closer, she saw Aponia's eyes facing her, her mouth opening and closing as if she said something, and then Destobia felt that there seemed to be an invisible thing in her mind. of shackles.

"This [commandment] can temporarily keep you safe."

Aponya said this, and then came to Qianjie's cell and performed the same steps on him.

"Is it an attack from the Eighth Herrscher?"

Destobia's mind was spinning quickly and she guessed.

"Well, my workload has increased a lot."

Aponya listened to more and more noises in her ears, the expression on her face remained unchanged, and she ordered to Destobia: "Can you please gather Li and the others together? I need to give them one too." Insurance."

"it is good."

Destobia quickly walked out.

"Hope... the situation won't be too bad."

Aponya murmured, even if so many people are affected in the deepest place, then the current situation of the entire base may not be too good, right?

……

"what are you doing?!"

"Are you crazy?! You suddenly shot at us?!"

"Call for backup... Damn it! The communication is down!"

Just as Aponya thought, the Fire Chasing Moth base is now in chaos, going crazy and sleeping, with only a few people struggling to defend themselves from the attacks of their former companions.

And just when a temporary team was about to be unable to hold on, a cold air came over, and then they saw small icicles rising rapidly under the feet of each crazy person. Before those people could When the person reacted, they jammed their hands and feet, completely controlling their actions.

"Captain Kevin!"

Suddenly someone shouted in surprise.

"Um……"

Kevin, who was belatedly arriving with his traces and Kosmo, nodded to them, then looked at the people under his control and asked, "What's going on?"

"I don't know. We were fine at first, but suddenly they shot at us as if they were sick. If they hadn't reacted quickly, maybe they would have been shot to pieces by now, right?" One of the normal team members said in fear.

"Kevin, there is news from Li that similar incidents have occurred in most areas of the base." Hen passed the message received on his mobile phone to Kevin.

"...I'll go to other places to help."

Kosmo wanted to leave, but was stopped by Kevin, "No, Mei said that we can't be separated for the time being."

Kevin browsed through the photos Li sent over. They were full of unconscious members of the Fire Chasing Moth. They were piled together, and at first glance they looked like a pile of dead people.

Judging from some of the crystal residue on their bodies, Alicia and Li should have subdued them together.

"But……"

Kosmo wanted to refute. He believed that it would be most efficient to act separately now.

"Kosmo, please listen to the captain at this time. Dr. Mei is probably worried that we will be left alone and controlled by the Eighth Herrscher. By then, the casualties may not be even a few," Hen persuaded.

"……it is good."

After thinking for a moment, Kosmo calmed down.
