“I saw it…human experimentation… Winter Capital is a wasteland.” Columbina’s clear, cool voice, like moonlight, resonated distinctly in the conference room.
As she finished speaking, a barely perceptible blush crept onto her fair cheeks.
Pierro was stunned upon hearing this.
He knew that the reason she kept her eyes closed was because she didn’t want to see a world shrouded in “lies”.
In that case, what the other party “sees” must be a future that will actually happen in Makoto.
With this in mind, Pierro no longer hesitated and made a decisive decision: “From this day forward, all human experimentation shall be completely banned, and all those responsible shall be executed.” Of course, Dottore is not included among the “relevant responsible persons” mentioned here.
The situation suddenly reversed 180 degrees, catching everyone present off guard.
A gentle smile appeared in Arlecchino’s eyes.
That shameless guy actually had this trick up his sleeve.
Rosalyne, sitting at the end of the table, breathed a long sigh of relief, finally at ease.
But then, she kept cursing “that idiot” in her heart for making her so worried.
At this moment, Dottore was still unwilling.
” Lord Jester, I can personally seize Gnosis.
Please reconsider and appoint Makoto.” Pierro glanced at him indifferently, his tone cold and unyielding: “This matter is settled, there is no need for further discussion.” After hearing this, Dottore had no choice but to give up.
In this round, he ultimately lost!
interesting.
Someone actually managed to outmaneuver me.
So, what interesting ways can we properly torture this guy?
Pierro ignored him and turned his gaze to Pulcinella: ” Pulcinella, you’re in charge of cleaning up this mess.” Pulcinella replied respectfully, “Please rest assured, I will ensure this matter is resolved gracefully.” “Mr.
Mayor,” Dottore said calmly, “please allow me to move the facilities out before you deal with this matter.” Upon hearing this, Pulcinella’s wrinkled face showed a troubled expression.
“If we delay too long, it might lead to serious consequences…like with the Knights of Favonius expedition…” “One day,” Dottore interrupted him, his tone firm.
Pulcinella hesitated for a moment, then finally nodded: “Okay.” He didn’t want to offend this insidious and despicable Harbinger too much.
Dottore’s expression softened slightly.
As long as these facilities remain, his human experiments can continue.
However, at this moment, a Fatui Messenger hurried into the meeting room, quickly walked up to Pierro, and whispered a few words in his ear.
Despite the extremely soft voice, Dottore still heard what was said, and his face instantly turned ashen.
He suddenly looked up at Arlecchino across from him, his eyes filled with resentment and rage.
Arlecchino met his gaze without flinching.
If this place weren’t the Zapolyarny Palace, the two would probably have already drawn their swords and fought to the death.
Pierro sensed the tense hostility between them, frowned slightly, but said nothing.
Both Dottore and Arlecchino are indispensable pillars of Fatui.
He then said to Pulcinella, “There’s no need to wait any longer.
Tartaglia has already destroyed that Medical Experimental Center.” Pulcinella was taken aback by his words, and then a hint of undisguised admiration flashed across her shrewd eyes.
Since he became mayor of Winter Capital, he has seen countless geniuses, but none have been as cunning and scheming as Alex.
The sinister and treacherous Dottore was completely manipulated by his opponent.
If he can grow up, he will become an extraordinary figure.
Unfortunately…
Dottore would never give such an opportunity.
Soon, the meeting came to an end, and many Harbingers dispersed.
Not far from where Columbina left the meeting room, a pretty-faced Damselette hurriedly followed.
” Columbina.” Damselette walked to her side, her tone tinged with suspicion.
“You’re acting a little strange today.” Columbina turned to look at her, her expression normal.
” Sandrane, what’s wrong with me?” Sandrone raised her chin slightly and scoffed, “After spending so much time with you, you think I haven’t noticed?” “Are you concerned about me?” Columbina asked softly.
Wife “Huh?” Sandrone’s eyes widened in astonishment.
“I would care about a down-on-his-luck god like you?” Upon hearing this, Columbina readily corrected Makoto: “I am no longer a fallen god…
I still receive offerings from people.” “To offer you tribute?” Sandrone instantly understood, and her dislike for a certain person deepened even further.
…..
” Teucer!” ” Teucer!” “Tok!” Inside the dilapidated Medical Experimental Center, Tartaglia, now dressed in Foul Legacy attire, frantically searches for her brother’s body.
He searched almost the entire ruins from top to bottom, but still could n’t find Teucer.
Does this mean that Teucer has been murdered and turned into a pile of discarded flesh and blood?
Tartaglia’s eyes were bloodshot, and grief and anger surged into her heart like a tidal wave, which she could no longer suppress.
He furiously destroyed everything in his path—walls, instruments, files…
everything he could smash was pulverized.
And those experimental subjects were executed by his own hands one by one.
Screams and wails rose and fell, but soon silence descended.
A thick stench of blood permeated the Aether atmosphere, and severed limbs and remains were scattered everywhere, making the entire laboratory resemble a living hell.
After a long while, Tartaglia, covered in blood, staggered out of the ruins.
The sky was overcast, and a light drizzle fell.
The cold raindrops landed on his burning face and also on his wounded heart.
Overwhelmed by extreme exhaustion, he collapsed to his knees upon touching Foul Legacy.
Just when all hope seemed lost, a very familiar voice came from not far away: “Brother!” He turned around in surprise and saw Teucer holding a one-eyed toy and running quickly toward him.
Before long, Teucer threw herself into his arms, her voice trembling with tears: “Brother, I should have told you first!” In the rain, Tartaglia hugged Teucer tightly, her heart filled with the joy of having him back.
Arlecchino, who had just arrived, watched this touching scene from a short distance away.
Despite her usual aloof and icy demeanor, a faint yet genuine smile appeared on her lips.
