Comic: Becoming a Phantom Thief to Steal Hearts

As Lucas goes deeper, the surrounding environment becomes more and more absurd, with pillars often growing horizontally from the walls and windows in strange styles on tables.

He is often in a modern, technological corridor one second, and then steps into a grocery room full of old items the next.

"Why is this guy's palace like this?" Hope was very confused. It wasn't until he came here that he realized something was wrong.

Would a palace that is an ideal place really have such inconsistent styles? It's like cutting out two different places and roughly splicing them together.

This is equivalent to Wilson having two completely different twisted desires, but this is impossible unless he has a split personality.

Hope's face became more serious as he got to the back, "Lucas, do you remember what I said about Thompson's palace not being formed naturally, but by artificial intervention."

Lucas frowned slightly, "You mean, Wilson is in the same case?"

"Although I can't confirm it yet...but this feeling of separation..." Hope said hesitantly, "I can only say it is very possible."

Lucas' face darkened. If this was the case, it meant that someone was using the inner world to arbitrarily change human personality, whether it was Thompson or Wilson.

Lucas, who was thinking a lot, stepped into a new area. The wooden floor made a slight creaking sound when he stepped on it. On the wall were photos of the Wilson family smiling.

"This is the deepest part." Lucas said to himself.

"Ah...finally," Hope said.

However, the exploration here is still very unsatisfactory. The early journey is okay, it looks like an ordinary corridor, but the further you go, the more broken it becomes.

Looking at the cross section in front of him, Lucas estimated the distance, took off, and landed steadily.

Looking back at the bizarre and twisted chaos below, Lucas couldn't help but be speechless. Although people who owned the palace had twisted desires, the scene in front of him was no longer what normal people would think of.

"You are……"

Just when Lucas wanted to go deeper, a female voice startled him. He looked closely and saw that it was Wilson's wife who had been killed by his own hands. She was wearing a red dress and her face was full of doubts.

"This is not..." Hope also recognized the woman's identity, and all his feathers stood up.

According to Wilson's memory, this woman should have been strangled to death by himself a long time ago. The only thing that appears here now may be a doll imagined by Wilson, but such a being must listen to Wilson unconditionally. Now being If discovered, all previous efforts will be wasted.

Hope was ready to fight, but Lucas just stood there and frowned, seemingly not intending to kill the woman.

"Lucas, what are you doing?!" Hope was very confused.

Lucas did not answer Hope's question, but looked at the woman in front of him quietly. He didn't know why he always felt that she was not malicious, nor was she as empty as the doll Gwen in Thompson Hall.

The light shining in the woman's eyes was so vivid, as if she was a real human being living in the world, but...how could that be possible?

"My name is Self." Lucas said cautiously, trying to communicate with the woman, "What about you?"

"I'm Vanessa." Vanessa blinked and hesitated, "Your name is so strange. Are you from outside?"

"That's right." Lucas asked, "Have you always lived here?"

"Yes." Vanessa nodded, "It's very dangerous outside. If you go out, you will die. In that case, Will will be very sad."

"That's weird." Hope also realized something was wrong.

Lucas looked at Vanessa, and Vanessa looked at him, only Lucas in her beautiful brown eyes. Wait, it was just him? Vanessa couldn't even hear Hope talking...

Within just a few minutes of getting along with Vanessa, Lucas felt that he was full of doubts. The biggest problem now was Vanessa. She looked no different from an ordinary person living in the real world, except that her life Just in the twisted palace.

"I'm here to see Wilson Fisk." Lucas planned to state his attitude straight to the point, just in time to see Vanessa's reaction.

"Huh? Looking for Will?" Vanessa was a little confused, "Are you Will's friend?"

There was finally a hint of suspicion in her eyes, but there was still no malice.

Lucas frowned, "No, I...just have something very important to see him for."

"Is this really okay?" Hope couldn't help but ask.

Lucas shook his head slightly, signaling Hope to be silent yet.

"This... is a very important thing..." Vanessa hesitated and said, "I can tell you where Will is, but before that, I want to tell you something."

"Please say."

"It was Will who locked himself up. He said he would become very dangerous and wouldn't let me get close to him." Vanessa lowered her head, her expression gloomy.

"Ok?"

This unexpected development made Lucas widen his eyes slightly. In any case, Vanessa's description was already very different from the memory they obtained. In that memory, Wilson directly strangled Vanessa to death. of.

Lucas hesitated for a moment, and finally asked: "Then do you still remember your son?"

"Son?" Vanessa's eyes widened a little, and her face showed complete confusion. She murmured: "Son, son, my... son?"

"Miss Vanessa?"

Vanessa came back to her senses and smiled reluctantly, "Self, did you make a mistake? Will and I didn't...ah..." She touched her face, which was filled with tears without knowing it. , "But why...am I crying?"

Looking at Vanessa with a painful expression, Lucas' lips trembled. He regretted using this matter to test, but... it was precisely because of this that he could get closer to the truth.

"It's incredible that Wilson's imaginary doll has such rich emotions." Hope was also very unbelievable.

It’s not surprising to see someone in the hall who is exactly the same as in reality, but their exaggerated performance and empty eyes will make people see through their true nature very quickly, but Vanessa is completely different.

"Jane...just looks like a real person..." Hope exclaimed, "But how is that possible!"

"I'm sorry, Ms. Vanessa," Lucas whispered.

Vanessa looked at Lucas, a strong light suddenly bursting out of her eyes. She took a step forward, grabbed Lucas' clothes, and begged: "You must know, my son...what happened to him! What's wrong with him?" …Also, his name…why can’t I remember it at all? Tell me more!”

"I'm sorry." Lucas could only apologize and said, "I only know that you and Mr. Fisk have a son. As for the rest, I'm afraid only Mr. Fisk knows about it."

"Will..." Vanessa bit her lower lip and said, "I understand, I will take you to find Will."

"Thank you, Ms. Vanessa."

"It doesn't matter." Vanessa lowered her eyes, her reddish eyes looking sad and fragile. She said softly, "And I also want to understand my own questions."

Outside the mechanical behemoth, the remaining three people moved very smoothly. With a lot of fighting, they became more and more familiar with each other's attack habits, and their cooperation became more tacit. The shadows sent by Wilson were being eliminated bit by bit.

Not only that, Peter also fought back against this huge water monster, and the dancing tentacles were the best targets.

In terms of the ability to cooperate with his own persona, no one is better than Peter. He is flexible and elusive, like a ghostly assassin, and the sword in the hand of the knight Gawain is the sharpest weapon.

A flash of sword light flashed, and the movement of the tentacle paused. After a second, a smooth cross-section appeared on the tentacle, revealing the colorful wires underneath. The part of the tentacle that was dismembered by Peter fell heavily on the ice created by Gwen. On the ice, the ice was smashed to pieces, but soon it froze again under the influence of Gwen.

"Great job!" Mindy laughed excitedly, causing another explosion on the surface of the beast.

Gwen slid gracefully on the ice with her persona. As the main force in maintaining the field card, she also had the biggest job task, but she was also the person furthest away from the scene of the battle.

Gwen frowned. Peter and Mindy, who were involved in many things, might not be able to see it, but Gwen could see it clearly.

The shadows pouring out of Wilson's body became less and less, and a strange struggling expression appeared on the huge face.

Although their form is advantageous, Gwen, who has gradually gained more combat experience, does not think that such an advantage alone will cause such a big change in Wilson.

Sure enough... Lucas and Hope must have done something.

Although Lucas and Hope are now missing, none of the three people think that they will leave the palace and escape on their own, but must fight them somewhere. This is why the three of them have not left yet and have been fighting with Wilson. The reason is because they also believe in Lucas.

At this moment, Lucas is following Vanessa to the true deepest part of this palace.

Looking at the mechanical door in front of him, Lucas looked at Vanessa beside him, "Ms. Vanessa, are you sure you want to go in with me?"

Although Wilson seems to have deep feelings for Vanessa, Lucas cannot guarantee that he will not hurt Vanessa, and it will be difficult for him to ensure Vanessa's safety once a fight breaks out.

"Of course." Vanessa said firmly, clenching her fists, "I must know the truth."

Lucas looked at her deeply and said, "Okay."

He pushed open the door.

The scene before them made both Lucas and Vanessa speechless.

In this deepest room, there are screens flashing data from all directions. The big screen in front of you is showing the scene outside. The scene of Peter, Gwen, and Mindy fighting is clearly presented in front of you.

But the most ridiculous thing is that there is a pink brain soaked in a transparent cylinder in the center of the room. The brain is trembling slightly, as if it is still alive.

"Where's Will?" Vanessa said blankly.

"No way..." Hope opened his eyes wide, and he was speechless.

Is the real Wilson a brain? Lucas was also confused, how could this be possible!

A projection appeared next to his brain. It was Wilson. He smiled and clapped, "Congratulations, you have discovered the real secret of this palace."

Lucas suddenly darkened his face and said warily: "Who are you?"

Wilson smiled and said: "Isn't it me you are looking for? Then I will stand in front of you."

"No...no!" Vanessa stared at Wilson's projection, "You are not Will, absolutely not!"

"I'm not the real Will, so who is?" Wilson chanted, placing his hand on the cylinder containing the brain, curling his lips wickedly, "You don't think this is it, do you?"

He disappeared and then appeared next to Vanessa, "My dear Vanessa, didn't I say you don't have to come to me? You should really listen to me..."

The smile on Wilson's face became smaller and smaller, and finally became expressionless, just like the moment he killed Vanessa in his memory, "In this case, I will have to deal with you again..."

Vanessa's eyes widened as some terrible memories appeared in her mind, "You..."

"Be careful!" Lucas rushed over and knocked Vanessa away. A laser shot out of the muzzle that appeared on the wall, blasting a long scorch mark where Vanessa had been.

"Hey, mind your own business." Wilson showed a disgusted expression.

Lucas looked at him with a solemn expression and whispered to Vanessa: "Run quickly..."

But his intention has been noticed by Wilson, and the only entrance is closed heavily. At this moment, there is only fighting.

"What and what is this!" Hope was confused. He felt that the progress of the matter was like riding on a highway, heading towards a situation that he could not understand.

Wilson laughed and snapped his fingers, the floor opened, and tentacles composed of twisted wires wrapped around the central brain, finally turning into a monster whose face could not be seen clearly.

"Come, let's show off."

Lucas pursed his lips and took off his mask, and the persona appeared behind him.

He understands that this moment is the decisive battle, but...

Lucas said without looking back: "Hope, protect Ms. Vanessa."

Vanessa, a weird character who appears in the weird hall, is the only person Weird Wilson wants to get rid of. If you want to know what happened, she must be the key, so Lucas will never let Wilson kill Mortal. Nissa's.

"I understand!" Hope responded quickly, trusting Lucas's judgment.

Hope flapped her wings and came to Vanessa, "Ms. Vanessa, let's get away from here!"

However, he forgot that Vanessa couldn't hear what he said.

Vanessa stared blankly at the monster fighting with Lucas, "Will..."

She raised her hand and held the pendant hidden under her clothes with a firm expression.

Hope, who was still anxiously flying around Vanessa, suddenly became stupid.

Because, he actually detected the smell of treasure in Vanessa.
