Arknights, are you a good person?

Soon, the turbulent lake surface began to slowly condense, and transparent ice spread out.

It was a bridge made of ice, with a width of two lanes in both directions. Compared with the shaky suspension bridge, it was obviously much more solid and could carry more and heavier objects.

Instead of stopping, they quickly regrouped and made a comeback on an unparalleled scale. The mafia family is so terrifying.

Qi Yuan couldn't help but sigh: "Maybe this is Syracuse."

The ice spread wildly on the lake, and in just a few minutes it even reached the island in the middle of the lake.

The magician group slowly retreated, the bright lights of their cars piercing the night sky. The convoys behind them drove onto the ice one after another, surrounded by a Cadillac stretched sedan, and drove towards the haunted house with great momentum.

In an instant, the convoy stopped downstairs.

In the back seat of the stretched sedan, the curtain slowly opened, and Alberto's icy blue eyes looked at the haunted house for a while, and then a look of confusion appeared on his face.

"The young lady is in here, absolutely true!"

The family lawyer wiped his sweat and said, "Only a family jewel like Miss Laplande can be regarded as a treasure by such a monster and guarded so closely."

Alberto Saluzzo's eyes narrowed, but he did not react much to the obvious flattery.

"She should have resisted."

Alberto said calmly, "If she was the daughter of the Saluzzo family, she should fight until her last drop of blood was shed. Even if she only had a set of teeth left, she should leave wounds on that guy's body."

"Maybe the young lady has something to hide..."

The family lawyer answered while wiping his sweat.

The master said that he would question Miss Lappland as soon as they arrived at the place, so the family members stationed there immediately began to send their troops one after another... The result was naturally as expected, they did not achieve any results until Master Alberto arrived.

It's even more of a shame that no one was injured.

Fortunately, Master Alberto did not say anything and he brought the best of the family.

Destroy the traces!

A powerful killer loyal to his family, he moves in the shadows, leaving only death in his wake. Everyone knows his title, but no one ever talks about him.

At Alberto's command, the masked killer carrying a giant crossbow got out of the car and walked into the haunted house. The powerful aura was inspiring.

"An ace killer can kill people without making a sound even if someone carves words on his skin with a knife."

The younger brother at the bottom of the family said excitedly, looking at the back of the exterminator with shining eyes, as if he had finally waited for his savior.

That's a family legend!

Even if the monster rushed towards him, the barcode mask of the destroyer would not show any change in expression.

five minutes later--

"what!!!"

A scream of fear shot out like an arrow, and a ragged, ordinary-looking middle-aged man fled out, like a headless fly, and hit the hood of a Cadillac and fainted.

"Who is this?"

"Wasn't it the ace killer who just went in?"

Alberto: “…”

Surprise and confusion flashed across his icy blue pupils.

The driver panicked and made minor adjustments to straighten the crooked stretch limousine, fearing that he would be blamed by the owner of the house.

Alberto said nothing, just lowered his head and thought.

"I'll go myself."

He didn't see any wounds on the body of the family exterminator who was fleeing. It was really hard to imagine what kind of mental torture could turn a gold medal killer into this.

He opened the car door and got out.

A cold wind blew, and Alberto subconsciously tightened his cloak.

352: Farewell, Father, and My Cowardice

Deep and dark.

Alberto walked into the haunted house, his pupils shrank slightly to adapt to the dark environment, and he started hunting mode. After he came in, other family members immediately followed, timidly following behind the head of the family.

Although they were afraid, if they let the head of the family go into danger alone, he would probably be expelled from the Saluzzo family overnight.

It is hard to imagine the tragic fate of a gang member who loses his family.

However, as soon as the family members who had experienced the power came in, they immediately occupied their seats at the door, showing that they were of one mind with the family and that the most important thing was to participate.

There were fewer and fewer people around Alberto.

After walking for a long time, he slowly stopped and looked at the dark and deep corridor in front of him. Black fog was spreading under his feet and the flickering lights made it impossible to see the specific scene clearly.

"who are you?"

Alberto raised his eyebrows, his whole body tensed, ready to pounce at any time.

However, he did not see any monsters, any indescribable distortions, or any unspeakable black fog. Alberto saw nothing at all.

He only saw a young boy, very quiet, without any racial characteristics, but with eyes and brows that seemed to have the power to calm people's hearts.

The warning stars in Alberto's heart flickered wildly.

"Hello."

A polite greeting broke the silence, and Alberto's figure disappeared without a trace, leaving only a flash of silver afterimage in the air.

He drew his sword in the middle of the fight. It was a shiny silver sword that was usually hidden in a heavy gold cane. It was extremely thin and sharp.

Qi Yuan nodded, not surprised at all.

This was a psychological warfare method he had developed. When the enemy relaxed their vigilance and responded to the communication, he would immediately use the Nightmare Shadow to deprive them of their vision. When their vision was restored, the enemy would find that they were surrounded by indescribable monsters, and the fear in their hearts would become even greater.

It’s okay to resist.

Anyway, I can't beat him no matter what.

There was a burst of thunder and lightning, and Alberto, who was charging, was paralyzed and forced to stop in place, unable to move.

It's now!

Qi Yuan stretched out his hand, and a dark shadow flowed along the ground, and the night completely covered Alberto.

Nightmare Shadow!

When his vision returned, Qi Yuan was still standing there, and there was someone next to him, someone Alberto was very familiar with.

"Lapland."

Alberto was so paralyzed that he uttered his daughter's name through his teeth.

"Hi, my father who values ​​family honor."

Lappland saluted with a smile, stood beside Qi Yuan, proudly puffed out her chest, and showed the collar around her neck to her father.

She laughed wildly: "My father, how do you feel now? How do you feel?"

"When I expelled you from the family a few years ago, I never thought that you would fall to this level and become someone else's...slave!"

That year, Lady Sicily launched a purge against the Texas family. Laplander, who was responsible for the siege and killing of Cellinina Texas, not only chose to let her go, but also turned his butcher knife on his teammates, killing them so that rivers of blood flowed, and became a sinner who disobeyed Syracuse.

Qi Yuan: “…”

Public morality +1.

He shook his head, and suddenly felt that this messy family drama was not unacceptable.

Compared to this added bit of public morality, Qi Yuan cared more about another thing, which was the brilliance radiating from Lappland from the inside out.

He looked at Lappland seriously, and the Eye of Tag was activated again.

【The self-destructive white wolf.】

Following that is her wish, a long string, like the confession of a mental patient.

[The life of the white wolf Lapland is shaped by her family. She is the most outstanding eldest daughter of the family and a qualified heir, but she deeply feels the corruption of Syracuse and tries every means to get rid of control. She tries every means, even at the cost of self-destruction...]

[Please help her realize her wish and obtain the operator characteristics of Lapland. ]

【The wish has been fulfilled. 】

Qi Yuan looked at the approval of noble morality, and the characteristics of the Lappland operator lying quietly inside - a silver-gray ball of light, with a burst of sword energy bursting out with his breathing - and suddenly felt a little sad.

Self-destruction, it seems, has another name.

Social death.

La Gouzi was badly beaten to death, but her reaction clearly showed that she had returned home in glory.

Lappland was laughing wildly, her father's face was as gloomy as water, and a wolf's howl was brewing deep in his throat, then suppressed by the surging thunder and lightning.

Fortunately, they are not my family members, otherwise it would be so unlucky.

Qi Yuan looked at it and shook his head, determined not to get involved in the chaotic life.

But Alberto looked at him: "Who are you? Who sent you here?"

Qi Yuan suddenly became spirited:

"It's life!"

"It was an unfair fate that sent me here!"

Qi Yuan waved his red pen heavily, and surging thunder and lightning emerged again, continuing to paralyze Alberto in place, his muscles trembling and unable to move.

Lappland turned around and looked at him in surprise, then nodded in understanding, turned around and continued to speak frantically to his father.

Public morality +1.

The huge haunted house was immediately filled with the suppressed wolf howls of the head of the Saluzzo family.

The family member who was standing hesitant at the door trembled uncontrollably when he heard the voice, with a mixture of fear and relief.

The haunted house is really scary.

Even the head of the Saluzzo family could not escape the atmosphere of fear here. He screamed loudly as if no one was around, completely losing face.

Family members didn't even dare to go up.

"Do you feel anything strange?"

A family member suddenly covered his chest, his breathing became heavy, and his legs became weak: "I felt dizzy, nauseous, and unable to move... It was like every move was controlled by someone."

"..."

No one responded to him.

As if responding to the head of Alberto's family, a wolf howl from the wilderness broke the silence.

It also contains great anger.

-------------------------------------

"I see."

Alberto had given up struggling and sat on the ground, his elegant silver-gray hair all spread out, listening to Lappland's words with a complicated expression.

"Your understanding of the family is so rebellious, but I don't understand. Lady Sicily has recruited you as a guard several times. You had the opportunity to transcend the family, but you threw it away. What kind of magic does this man have that makes you wear a collar and be loyal to him?"

"He's younger than you!"

"Is he more worthy of loyalty in your eyes than Lady Sicily?"

When it came to anger, Alberto broke away from the influence of hard control and forcibly clenched his fists.

"Father, you will never know what kind of magical and powerful existence and the picture of true freedom I saw in the prison carefully constructed by Qi Yuan."

Laplande shook his head:

"He has Texas in his hands, how did your daughter escape?"

He almost spit out a mouthful of blood.

Fortunately, a voice broke the embarrassment of being a father.
