Lilith tilted her head slightly and discovered that her hair had formed a hand that easily caught the bullet.
Not far away, a fully armed security guard's eyes widened, and an incredulous look of horror appeared on his face.
Lilith smiled slightly, and with a burst of strength, she leaped across twenty meters, arriving in front of the security personnel.
"How could you possibly be out here!" This security guard was an informant planted here by the Hand of Chaos, so he naturally knew what Lilith looked like.
Her jet-black hair, like countless steel wires, tightened around his struggling body. Lilith spoke in her mature, elegant, and intellectual voice: "My child, what makes you so afraid? Don't be afraid, Mommy is here."
These words possessed an indescribable demonic quality. After a brief moment of blank stare, the security guard obediently said, "Great Holy Mother, the Hand of Chaos tells me that if it discovers you have left the dungeon, it will kill you immediately."
"I actually attacked the great Virgin Mary! I have committed an unforgivable sin!" With that, the security guard tried to shoot himself.
For the first time, Lilith, who had never paid attention to this action, stopped it: "My child, there are many paths to salvation. Now I will give you a better path to salvation. Come, bring everyone else to me."
The security guard was immediately moved to tears and said, "Thank you! Thank you, Your Majesty."
Then, he ran away quickly.
A few minutes later, his accomplices were all called over.
And then, that was it.
Using her unique magical powers, Lilith took control of all the staff and problematic patients in the entire sanatorium in less than an hour.
If these people had been here before, they would probably have already suffered a mental breakdown due to Lilith's demonic influence, which is how she used to kill people.
But she is completely different now than before.
Because of the blood of the ancient god, she can control her abilities more freely. Although she can only control ordinary people at present, that is enough.
She did not corrupt their spirits or wills, but merely planted a mental suggestion that would not have any adverse effects, making them believe that they were the great mayor and loyal subordinates of Los Arkham.
in the dining hall.
Under Kur's astonished gaze, Los ate the food meant for forty people by himself before letting out a soft burp.
"The food is good. If you keep this up, three meals a day are very important," Los said, wiping his mouth.
Kur nodded as if waking from a dream: "Yes!"
Just then, the sound of Lilith's bare feet stepping on the floor came from behind.
Behind her followed a total of thirty-four people, all of whom were spies belonging to various organizations.
Seeing this, Kur sighed, "I had no idea there were so many people."
Currently, the sanatorium has only 46 patients and medical staff in total.
There are thirty-four of them here; they're all traitors, every single one of them is a double agent.
Chapter 0021 The Visit to the Rhodes Chamber of Commerce
Having taken back control of the entire sanatorium, Los did not linger there, for he had many other things to do.
Just as he was about to leave, another attending physician, Dr. Ashley, respectfully reminded him, "Young master, if you are going to leave with Miss Lilith, you'd better make some preparations."
“There are many other gangs with sentries around the nursing home, such as the Danny gang I belong to. They send at least two sentries around the area every day to keep an eye on the situation at the nursing home, and also to keep an eye on Innsmouth Station and your home.”
Hearing this, Lilith said softly, "Danny has improved a lot in the past ten years, he's even managed to get his hands on things here."
Danny Aubanion, the leader of the Danny gang, is the head of the gang that controls the business district. He is a burly man who appears cheerful and enthusiastic but is actually ruthless and vicious.
Although his influence was considerable, it was still in the commercial district, the central area, the territory of the Rhodes Chamber of Commerce.
"There are actually Danny's gang sentries all around?" The speaker was another attending physician, Dr. Pochi.
The two men exchanged a glance, and Ross clearly saw a hint of embarrassment and understanding in their eyes, as if to say, "Oh! So you're a traitor too!"
Dr. Pochi is an undercover agent of the Rhodes Merchant Guild. The two have a good relationship and often chat, each believing that only their own identity is special.
“I’m not just part of Danny’s gang, I’m also a member of the Redemption Society.”
“I am a member of the Clark family.”
"I am from Miskatonic University."
These guys confided in each other, only to discover that none of them—whether they were the flamboyant mental patients, the overbearing security guards, or the busy medical staff—had clean backgrounds.
However, these people all have one thing in common: they are all peripheral members of these organizations, unaware of any core content, and are only responsible for monitoring the situation here. Moreover, their families are all under the control of various gangs.
Kur looked at the disclosure meeting in front of him with some confusion, feeling that he had been too naive before.
After exchanging information, they all naturally became Los's loyal subordinates.
After handing over the remaining information to Kur, Los led Lilith to the clothes of a tall female medical worker.
When getting dressed, Lilith covered her body with her striking hair, as if she were wearing a shiny black bodysuit.
As for the hair, only about 30 centimeters of the twin ponytails were visible.
After changing into ordinary clothes, Lilith also slightly adjusted her appearance to make herself look relatively ordinary.
"Not bad!" Seeing this, Los nodded in satisfaction.
Lilith is now her trump card, and she can't let anyone else know that she has left the sanatorium.
After the two left the sanatorium, the sentries quickly notified their leaders that Los had left with a tall woman.
So, less than half an hour later, Arkham Sanatorium suddenly welcomed a group of more than 20 relatives and friends who came to visit. The most crucial thing was that they didn't know each other!
Inside the sanatorium, Kur had already made all the arrangements.
The relevant personnel also provided a perfectly reassuring answer: a female patient who was proficient in mathematics.
Even the medical records were prepared.
These people were focused on Lilith, and once they were sure that the witch was alright, they felt relieved.
After all, in their eyes, this young man who rose to power through bloodline posed no threat whatsoever.
Lilith followed Los home, and as soon as she entered, she saw the butler Carrington standing guard at the door.
"Young Master, Mr. Restarik, the municipal councilor of the central district, has come to visit you."
Upon hearing this, Los's lips curled up slightly. He knew that the Hand of Chaos had noticed something was wrong and was preparing to test the waters.
"Okay, I understand. This is Vivian, the accountant I just hired who is good at math. She'll be living here from now on and will help us with those messy financial accounts."
“This is Carrington, my personal butler.”
Los casually picked out a name and said.
Carrington could naturally sense that familiar feeling from Lilith, and knew that she had also received the young master's blood.
"Hello, Ms. Vivian, I'll go arrange accommodations for you."
Lilith smiled and nodded: "Thank you, kind housekeeper."
Los, who had taken off his coat and was wearing a white shirt, walked into the living room and found a middle-aged man with a big beard and a rugged appearance sitting on the sofa with a young man in his thirties.
This rugged, bearded man is none other than the former sheriff, now a city councilor, Rystarik.
"Mr. Mayor!" The two men stood up and greeted Los with smiles as he approached.
Los smiled and said, "Don't be so polite, Reis, sit down and let's talk."
After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Reese cut straight to the point: "Mayor, have you heard about the recent, extremely serious case?"
"Oh? What case?" Los asked, somewhat surprised.
Reis squinted and said, "A kind priest named Heim was brutally murdered and his head was cut off. He suffered inhuman torture before his death, which aroused the anger of the people in the central district. So they hope that the mayor can uphold justice for them and find the murderer as soon as possible."
“This is truly a sad thing. I had long heard of Father Heim’s kindness, and his death is a great loss to Arkham,” Los said with a sorrowful expression.
Suddenly, a young man standing nearby asked, "Mayor, who do you think is the murderer?"
The question was asked very suddenly and abruptly, but it had a special power that made people instinctively want to tell the truth.
Los turned to look at the young man and smiled slightly: "You should ask the police about this."
“We asked the police, and they said that Heim had contact with you before he died,” the young man said, his eyes gradually sharpening.
Los leaned back slightly on the sofa: "You can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want."
"However, if you are eager to know who the murderer is, your mayor will not refuse, but of course, you will need to pay a certain price."
The young man's eyes gleamed: "Oh? What kind of price?"
Los smiled and said, "Give me control of the central area, and all of you from the Rhodes Merchant Guild can get out of here, how about it?"
call!
The two men suddenly stood up, looking at Los with grim expressions.
“Mayor, this is a provocation,” Reis said in his deep, powerful voice.
Los looked up at the two of them, his smile gradually fading, and said, "This is not a provocation, but a suggestion that will be useful to you."
"Otherwise, if in the future some people die and things escalate to the point where neither side can back down, that would be bad."
The young man, enraged, let out a mocking laugh: "Mayor, your idea is extremely dangerous."
Los stood up and said, "Is it dangerous? I don't feel any danger."
The young man said in a low voice, "Then I will try my best to make the mayor feel it."
After saying that, he turned and left with Reis.
Chapter 0022 Willing to Take the Bait
After the two left, Carrington and Lilith, who had returned to normal, quietly appeared.
"Young master, should we kill them both?" Carrington asked tentatively.
Los laughed and said, "While there are many problems that can be solved by killing, they don't apply here."
"Our goal is to control them, not to kill them all."
Lilith looked at the two people outside the window: "It's been ten years, these little guys have grown quite a bit."
Los laughed and said, "You too."
He then said to Carrington, "You're too busy with the work at home all by yourself."
Carrington did not deny it: "Although it's not a big burden for me, it is indeed less efficient to work alone."
"Then I'll find you a few maids! Pretty maids are pleasing to the eye." Los made the decision readily.
