Chapter 675: Sealing

~10 min read 1,916 words

Seeing his worry confirmed, Lu Mian took out the key and opened the suite door almost silently.

Now he could confirm that Ludwig, the terrifying monster who had been sealed, would also fully display his appetite and impulses during the "Dream Festival"!

Under the crimson moonlight shining in from the living room window, Lu Jianuo was frantically moving his arms, moving backward, his face completely distorted by extreme pain.

At the end of his arm was Ludwig, wearing a child's nightcap and sky-blue pajamas with yellow stars. The sound of cracking and chewing flesh was coming from there without interruption.

Amidst other movements covered by this, drops of blood fell onto the floor.

Suddenly, Ludwig jumped up a bit like a frog, his mouth almost reaching the crook of Lu Jianuo's arm, and the sound of cracking became abnormally loud for a short time.

"Ah!"

Lu Jianuo screamed again, the sound wave almost able to flip the roof.

While instinctively wanting to retract the arm bitten by Ludwig and push the other party away with his other hand, his eyes rolled back, and he was about to faint because the pain was about to exceed his endurance.

Lu Mian glanced at it, ran two steps to Ludwig's back, and made a "hum" sound.

Two rays of white light sprayed out from his nose and fell onto Ludwig. Ludwig stopped and closed his eyes.

But before Lu Mian could make a follow-up action, the little boy's mouth moved again on its own, continuing to gnaw on Lu Jianuo's arm, biting through bones and rotting flesh.

His eyes opened accordingly.

"Hum-Ha Technique" can only make Ludwig dazed for a second, and this is under the premise that he is sealed... Lu Mian took a breath secretly and didn't make any more blind attempts.

He looked at Lu Jianuo, who had discovered him but was in too much pain to speak, raised his right hand, pressed it down, and signaled the other party to be patient.

Lu Jianuo was immediately full of dirty words and emotions, but couldn't pour them out.

As thoughts flashed, Lu Mian nodded imperceptibly.

He changed his target, walked past Ludwig, who was focused on eating Lu Jianuo, and grabbed Lu Jianuo's shoulder.

Immediately after, Lu Mian took out a sharp straight sword he had bought in Port Santa from his "Traveler's Bag."

What is he doing? Amidst the severe pain, a thought just arose in Lu Jianuo's mind, only to be quickly scattered.

Lu Mian swung the straight sword, and the blade ignited with scorching white flames.

The straight sword slashed heavily onto the arm Lu Jianuo was having Ludwig devour, slashing at the crook of the arm.

With a "pu" sound, the remaining short section of the forearm separated from Lu Jianuo and remained outside Ludwig's mouth, as if a bloody, thick, and short tail had grown in front of the little boy's head.

At the same time, Lu Mian's figure began to fade, and Lu Jianuo, whom he was holding, also disappeared from the spot.

"Teleportation"!

But Lu Mian didn't "teleport" very far; he and Lu Jianuo's figures were outlined at the suite door.

The pain was just as severe, but Lu Jianuo, whose pain had eased slightly compared to just now, saw Ludwig's figure again, saw the little boy's face with a bloody mess around it, biting his own missing forearm.

He was so scared that he forgot the pain, and only similar thoughts echoed in his heart:

Why not "teleport" out of Tizamo Town?

Why not "teleport" to Port Pylos?

Why still hang around in front of Ludwig?

Ludwig didn't know when he had turned his face, looking toward the door. His yellow short hair was stained with blood, and his brown eyes were filled with undisguised hunger and desire to eat.

He moved his legs, which belonged to a seven or eight-year-old child, and ran toward Lu Mian and Lu Jianuo. His speed was also about the same as a seven or eight-year-old child.

During this process, he chewed and swallowed the short section of Lu Jianuo's forearm that remained, without stopping for a moment.

Lu Mian put the straight sword back into the "Traveler's Bag" unhurriedly.

In Lu Jianuo's terrified eyes, he took out a whole almond pistachio cream mille-feuille cake and threw it onto the floor beside Ludwig.

Ludwig's running action slowed down, as if he were hesitating about which one to eat first.

In the end, he still looked toward Lu Jianuo.

That blood, flesh, and bone marrow full of spirituality made him even more intoxicated!

During Ludwig's short hesitation, Lu Mian's right hand reached into the "Traveler's Bag" again and dragged out one of the corpse pieces of "Ciss," throwing it to the other side.

Ludwig's gaze followed, unable to help licking his lips, but still didn't change direction.

He seemed to think that it was too dirty and not the top choice.

Lu Mian threw out one kind of material rich in spirituality after another, threw out cream small donuts, cream fruit tarts, sandwich frosting, queen pastries, liquor chocolates, cookies, candied fruits, lightning puffs, Charlotte cakes, and other foods.

These things piled up around Ludwig, "seriously" hindering his attempt to run toward Lu Jianuo.

"What are you stunned for? Stop the bleeding first!" Lu Mian turned his head to look at the silly Lu Jianuo and ordered in a deep voice.

Lu Jianuo shivered, instinctively letting his left palm flash with a faint light, and pressed it onto the stump of his right arm.

Ludwig ate the food Lu Mian threw while walking. Although he was still worried about Lu Jianuo, he was no longer so urgent.

In the end, Lu Mian threw out boxes and boxes of biscuits, candies, beef jerky, and other things, letting them surround Ludwig, building a messy and low "wall."

He had prepared seven days' worth of dry rations for Ludwig in the "Traveler's Bag," and at this moment, he threw almost all of them out.

"What are you doing?" Lu Jianuo, who had timely completed the rescue, finally stopped the bleeding, let the wound initially heal, and was no longer in so much pain. He looked at Lu Mian's actions suspiciously, not understanding why his employer was still obsessed with feeding Ludwig at this time.

"Sealing that guy up." Lu Mian answered calmly, his hands never stopping for a moment.

"Sealing?" Lu Jianuo almost doubted his hearing.

This is too absurd and ridiculous, right?

Is there such a thing as sealing a monster with food?

Not to mention that I have never seen or heard of similar things before, even in the popular novels on the market, no writer would dare to imagine this!

Shouldn't normal sealing be done by drawing occult symbols and patterns with materials rich in spirituality, and then completing it with the help of ritual magic or some magical artifact?

What is throwing food to a monster?

Lu Mian smiled and sighed:

"If he's full, he won't want to eat you, and he won't want to eat others here.

"And so much food is enough for him to eat until dawn, until tomorrow or the day after."

The reason Lu Mian thought of doing this was that he just discovered Ludwig only wanted to eat, and combined with the characteristics currently displayed by the "Dream Festival," he could almost be certain that Ludwig was very pure now, pure to the point of only having appetite. This was a special point that others in Tizamo Town didn't possess.

Since that was the case, as long as he could satisfy Ludwig's appetite, he could let him stay in the suite, keep eating, keep eating, until the "Dream Festival" ended, without bringing danger to others during the whole process.

What is the difference between this and sealing him here?

Of course, the premise is that the "Dream Festival" won't last until Ludwig finishes this seven-day portion of food.

Otherwise, Lu Mian's speed of hunting in the jungle might not keep up with his appetite.

After listening, Lu Jianuo suddenly realized.

This is really a good way to briefly restrict Ludwig.

Who said this can't be called sealing?

As long as you understand the target well enough, know his hobbies and weaknesses, sometimes even without occult means, you can complete a "sealing"!

Lu Mian saw Ludwig eating while still trying to walk toward the door, obviously a bit reluctant to part with Lu Jianuo, so he grabbed his private doctor's shoulder and directly "teleported" to the corner of the stairs on the second floor of the Police Headquarters.

Ludwig looked at the empty door, withdrew his gaze, and began to fight with a room full of food.

"Is it really okay?" Just after breaking away from the Spirit World, Lu Jianuo asked somewhat uneasily.

Lu Mian smiled:

"As long as no Beyonder happens to pass by the door, he won't leave his food."

Lu Jianuo let out a breath, looked at his right arm that only had half left, and thought somewhat sadly:

"At least I'm still alive, being alive is enough...

"Later, see if I can save money to install a mechanical arm at the Church of Steam; that might effectively improve my combat ability."

The injury of missing limbs is not something a "Physician" can solve; after all, there's no way to transplant someone else's arm over.

Camus and Ruya on the stairs both looked at Lu Jianuo's half-bloody arm.

They associated it with the bigger trouble Louis Berry mentioned before, and both couldn't help but frown.

"What happened?" Camus asked.

Lu Mian smiled:

"Caused by that big trouble, but I have temporarily sealed the big trouble. Hmm, you must not go to the Buriu Hotel, and even more so, you must not pass by the suite door on the second floor."

Hearing that the big trouble had been temporarily sealed by Louis Berry, Camus let out a breath quietly and said to Lu Jianuo:

"It's good that it's just a dream; it'll be fine when you wake up."

"Dream?" Lu Jianuo looked blank.

Lu Mian didn't explain, just reminded:

"It is indeed a dream, but if you die in the dream, you will also die in reality."

While Lu Jianuo was suspicious and uncertain, Lu Mian turned to Camus and Ruya:

"We are going to that house in Tewanaco now."

His main purpose in investigating the "Dream Festival" was to pursue that batch of gold from "Ciss" and something the other party obtained from the devil of the North family, so naturally, he had to go and see if there were any changes in the corresponding location after the "Dream Festival" officially began, and what changes there were.

If there was no harvest, Lu Mian's next destination was Saint Cien Church, to find that Father Cali.

This was because the priest's strange state of "weakness in the depths of the spirit body" in reality was not possessed by anyone else in Tizamo Town, which indicated that the priest absolutely had special points, and it was also the priest who announced the start of the "Dream Festival" just now!

Camus hesitated and didn't answer, as if there were other urgent things he wanted to do at the moment.

At this time, Ruya looked at Lu Mian and pointed at Lu Jianuo with great suspicion:

"Why does he also maintain consciousness?"

ps: There will be a Golden Alliance addition tomorrow~
