Chapter 239 Manipulation
"Ugh..." An unnatural blush appeared on baby Heilman's originally wrinkled face, and then he began to burp, and even faintly spit out a faint gray mist from his mouth.
The maid just now no longer trembled, but naturally began to pack up the dirty clothes in the cradle. Her eyes now turned gray-white, and as the gray-white air flow continued to dissipate, the maid's eyes Pupils also reappeared in the eyes, looking the same as before.
But if you look carefully, you can find that there is a slight change in the pupils of this maid. There seems to be something slowly moving in the black and gray pupils.
"Go to work."
"Yes, Madam." The maid saluted respectfully. When she took the first step, she felt a little confused and tilted her head, feeling that she seemed to have forgotten something, but soon the maid felt a familiar feeling. Memory, she blinked slightly, and quickly thought of many things.
"She is a maid within the Mondoc family. She is going to the laundry room now..." The maid thought of this. She quickly picked up the clothes and walked out of the door.
But she didn't even realize that when passing through the corridor, she chose a path slightly farther from the laundry room.
"Ouch..." When she walked to the door of a room, the maid was thinking about what she had just been stunned for, so she didn't look at the road and almost fell down.
Fortunately, she maintained her balance pretty well. Although her body was swaying, she was very lucky not to fall down.
"Thanks to the Mother Goddess, if Mrs. Cornmere sees me, I will definitely be punished, right?" The maid muttered happily in her heart. She quickened her pace with some guilt, but did not notice that her action just now caused A baby toy dropped.
A baby toy made of fabric lay quietly in the corner of the room, with eyes made of buttons looking straight to the side.
…
"It's so strange...it's so normal within the Mondoc family." Lucian continued to observe without giving up while dealing with the children beside him.
He has even determined through further [mind reading] that there are three players among this group of children, but these players are all guests who came to visit and are not members of the Mondoc family at all.
"Lula, you will play the countess later!" Daya stuffed a rag doll to Lucian, and then looked at Lucian with her black eyes, "You seem a little unhappy today?"
"No, no..." Lucian didn't know why, but when he was stared at by Daya's eyes, he suddenly felt a hairy feeling.
He tilted his head back subconsciously, but found nothing. The hairy feeling seemed to be just a misjudgment on his part.
"What's wrong?"
"No...it's okay." Lucian felt a little guilty. He glanced around, but he didn't know what to say. Even now, he wasn't sure how he should break the situation next.
While he was dealing with the group of children absentmindedly, he quickly recalled the information about Chaos Goblins and Goblin Sacrifice in his mind.
Among them, the information about the Chaos Goblins was relatively clear to Lucian, but the information about the Goblin Sacrifice was relatively vague even by Hercules.
After all, this is a special creature comparable to a god, and even the simplest information is not easy to obtain.
In the message Hercules gave Lucian, there was only one sentence about the ability of the goblin priest, that is, he has the special abilities of "distortion" and "control". "Distortion and control... this general term is not like an ability at all, but more like a concept..."
Lucian's understanding of powerful people at the divine level is really limited, and it is difficult for him to classify such powerful people in a clearer level, so his understanding of goblin sacrifice can only be gleaned from these few words.
In Lucian's understanding, control is relatively easy to understand. For example, in the wizarding world, there are some schools related to control. For example, the undead wizard can control some undead creatures to fight, and the "manipulator" in the mechanical wizard is another example. "The genre also has the ability to control various mechanical creations to fight.
However, the characteristic of distortion made Lucian feel a little confused. The last time he heard this word, it seemed to come from the Hell Blood Snake and Crimson Page.
The ability of the Crimson Page is more inclined to "pollution" and "assimilation", and can assimilate some flesh and blood creatures into some kind of hell product. Distortion is just a by-product of the process of pollution and assimilation.
But according to this logic, the "distortion" ability should refer to some kind of abnormal transformation of items or creatures?
Lu Xian was worried. He always felt that the unspeakable anomalies inside the Mondok family mansion must be indescribably related to the goblin sacrifice.
But perhaps it was the huge gap between levels that made him feel many abnormalities, but he could never detect any specific problems.
This feeling made him extremely irritable, as if he could hear the buzzing sound of mosquitoes flapping their wings in the dark. He could even feel the mosquitoes closing their wings, landing on him, and lying on his skin. But when he raised his hand, When we were about to move out, the mosquito fluttered its wings and flew away, and we couldn't even find any trace of it.
"You guys continue playing first, I...I'm going to the bathroom." Lucian covered his stomach and pretended to be in a hurry to urinate.
Without waiting for Daya to say anything, Lucian trotted out.
"Miss!" Behind him, the two maids responsible for taking care of them called him softly.
Lucian pretended not to hear and rushed forward. Although this move seemed a bit rude, it was an attempt to get rid of the "invisible arrangement".
After all, with the excuse of "urinary urgency" and being a child, he now had an excuse to rush into any room.
But the next moment, Lucian's eyes dimmed slightly, because the moment he rushed out the door, he happened to meet a maid who was carrying fruit.
"Miss, please slow down." The maid looked at Lucian. Before Lucian could react, she smiled and said in a gentle and polite voice, "The bathroom is at the back, just walk straight there. . How about... I take you there first?"
As she spoke, she put the fruit plate aside, bent slightly and stretched out a hand towards Lucian.
"Thank... thank you." Lu Xian sighed helplessly, but he could only stop honestly.
He raised his head and used his [Mind Reading] talent to look at the maid.
"It's normal." Lu Xian's heart was cold. At this moment, he felt like a puppet being played with.
