"If it were a tranquil mountain retreat, drinking and singing, I would never resort to such a low-level trick as feigning unconsciousness."
The sound of cicadas chirping at dawn echoed through the room.
Does this person only speak when they're putting others down?!
Yu Xunge stopped pretending to be dead and raised her head to look at Fuxiao Xianchan.
That was all she could do; her wrists were secured to the ends of a strange object resembling a cross by two metal rings.
She checked her condition immediately upon waking up.
There was a lot of bad news. The thing that bound her must be a special artifact. Her four attributes were sealed, and now her strength, agility, physique, and intelligence were all down to 10 points. All her SSS-level and lower skills were grayed out, and even her accompanying lightning magic element had quieted down. All the equipment she carried to disguise herself had been taken away.
But there's good news too: the gashapon machine stuck in the tooth socket is still there, and the two divine skills, [Mysterious Power] and [Story Ending], are still usable. These two divine skills are still free to use.
However, when bound, even using these two skills won't change anything.
Yu Xunge scanned the cell, which could be seen at a glance, but did not see Tu Lan and B80. She had called for them through the pet contract but received no response.
With her hands behind her back, Fu Xiaoxianchan slowly walked up to her, her eyes slightly lowered, looking at Zaijiu Xun Ge, who was half a head shorter than her, and asked, "Are you done with the checkup?"
Yu Xunge's gaze fell on Fuxiao Xianchan, who was tied to a cross. The position was not very comfortable, but she still smiled and imitated the other's tone, saying, "Fuxiao Xianchan of Xinghai is not as impatient as you."
Fu Zhi frowned deeply and repeated a phrase from her words: "At dawn, cicadas are catching their cicadas?"
Ah, I forgot, the person in front of me should be called Lighthouse Cicada... A hint of annoyance flashed across Yu Xunge's face, but the next second, a hand reached out and grabbed her neck, slamming her hard against the cross behind her.
Fu Zhi said, her expression grim, "Don't try any of these little tricks on me. You've already mastered these tricks in the Tranquil Mountains! Why is the cicada in Xinghai called the Dawn Cicada?"
Yu Xunge was being choked and couldn't breathe, but she still managed to say what she had wanted to say for a long time: "Can't you live without putting others down?"
But his mind was filled with surprise at the question of the lighthouse cicada; did the other party know that there was also a cicada in the starry sea?
Xian Chan tightened her grip, but the person in front of her remained silent, showing no intention of crying out in pain or begging for mercy. Even the flower branch composed of countless flower crowns on the other person's body did not move at all.
Those eyes, flashing with golden lightning, were quietly watching him. She was carefully memorizing him, memorizing this moment, waiting for the day of revenge.
During this eye contact, Lighthouse Cicada heard Wine-Seeking Song ask, "Do you know Smoke-Smoker and Spring Guest?"
Two unfamiliar names startled Lighthouse Cicada, but it quickly realized that the other party was still trying to extract information even in such a vulnerable situation!
How annoying! Just like the tranquil mountains where people drink and sing!
Lighthouse Cicada revealed a malicious smile, and the next second, the hand gripping Zaijiu Xunge's neck emitted a skill-like glow.
She asked again, "Why is the cicada in Xinghai called the Dawn Cicada?"
This is clearly some kind of skill.
Before Yu Xunge could react, she had already answered, "Because the lighthouse was destroyed, she is now the ruler of dawn, so she is called Dawn Cicada."
Lighthouse Cicada instinctively exclaimed, "How could a lighthouse be destroyed?!"
