The moment the mission prompt popped up, Spade swung the whip without hesitation, with the sharp tip of the whip pointing directly at Tavel's heart as he hung in the water!
Bai Liu turned in the water, stood in front of Tavel with a sharp gaze, and raised his whip to block Hei Tao's attacking whip.
Hei Tao's whip hit Bai Liu's whip body. Bai Liu was pushed back a little by the huge force of the whip and leaned into Tavel's arms behind her. Fine bubbles emerged between her clenched teeth and floated up from her long hair.
Tawil's body was pushed, and his long silver hair became entangled with the white willow's black hair. Tawil, who had been motionless, slowly raised his drooping head.
His silver-blue eyes were covered by layers of silk threads, but he still stretched out his arms and hugged Bai Liu who fell into his arms.
The light from the inverted cross pendant at the entrance of Tavel suddenly became brighter. In this dazzling white light, a water-patterned air barrier formed around Bai Liu, allowing him to breathe smoothly underwater.
"Bai Liu?" He whispered in Bai Liu's ear, "Is that you?"
Bai Liu said softly, "It's me."
"I'm coming to see you."
Bai Liu heard Tavel chuckle lightly and said, "Every time you come to see me, you are always so fierce."
Spade's whip came at him unexpectedly. Bai Liu just raised his hand to block it, but Tavel pulled him behind him to block it. With a calm expression, he stretched out his right hand in front of him and spread out his five fingers. Water patterns mixed with white halos spread out from the front of his palm layer by layer, forming a milky white hazy water barrier, blocking the whip swung by Spade.
The glittering water ripples expanded in circles, as if there was a gust of wind coming from nowhere in the sea, blowing away the short hair of Spade and the long hair of Tavel who were facing each other on both sides of the barrier. The two people's identical faces looked at each other across the barrier, and their expressions were exactly the same and calm.
"Don't you want to admit defeat?" Tawil, with his eyes blindfolded, asked softly.
Spade's face was emotionless: "No."
He raised his whip and swung it down fiercely, hitting the water barrier with a force that almost broke through space and time. His force was directed at Tavel on the other side of the water-patterned wall, but his eyes were fixed on Bai Liu's face, who was pulled behind him by Tavel.
"I don't admit it." Spade said word by word, "I want to win against Bai Liu."
"I want to sacrifice you and become his most suitable souvenir."
Cracks appear in the watermarked wall.
Tawil did not move his eyebrows, and asked calmly: "Do you know whose souvenir you are?"
Spade looked at the dull-faced Tavel through the cracked water-rippled wall. At the moment when Tavel's water-rippled wall shattered, he saw Bai Liu pulling Tavel behind him without hesitation, and the whip in his hand turned into a dagger, which he turned and stabbed at him behind the water-rippled wall.
The dagger slashed across Hei Tao's face, and blood oozed out from the linear wound and splashed into the sea water.
A rare blank expression appeared on Hei Tao's face.
He could have dodged at that moment, but for some reason, when he saw Bai Liu's gaze on him, the bullet wound on Hei Tao's waist suddenly hurt, and he could not dodge Bai Liu's knife that was stabbing at him.
When protecting Tavier, Bai Liu's dark eyes stared at him, empty, as if he did not exist in his eyes.
The moment Bai Liu swung the knife, the silk thread wrapped around Tavel's right wrist disappeared. At the same time, a silk thread was tied around Hei Tao's right wrist.
"The pain between you and me is constant." Tavel's voice was vague and ethereal in the water, and only rang in Heitao's ears through the water-patterned wall. "When I feel happiness because of Bai Liu's love for me, you will feel the same amount of pain."
"As much as you feel happy because of Bai Liu's love for you, I will also feel as much pain as a result."
"One of us will surely be the sacrifice to God, the anchor of Bai Liu, the sacrificed one."
White Willow pressed forward step by step, Spade kept retreating, and blood kept spreading in the water. Every time White Willow took a step forward in front of Tavel, one silk thread was lost on Tavel's body, and one silk thread was entangled around Spade's body.
The more these threads of pain entangled Kuroo, the slower Kuroo's movements became, and the more vulnerable Kuroo was to Shiraki's attacks. In the end, Kuroo was almost completely tied up by the threads into a cocoon, and was suspended under the Sea Shrine, becoming a new anchor.
The other end of these threads was connected to the ship-shaped shrine, which made Spade bear the weight of both these heavy "pain" and the huge sea shrine at the same time.
Spade raised his head underwater with all his strength and stared through the silk threads at Tavel, who was completely untied in front of him, hugging Bai Liu and smiling at him.
Tawil looked down at him like a god, his eyes full of pity: "Do you understand now?"
"You'll never beat me."
"I... don't understand." Trapped in [pain], Spade said hoarsely, "But I must beat you!"
He opened his arms violently, and the extremely tight silk thread tightened his flesh and bones. Blood gushed out from the wounds. Spade looked into Tavel's silver-blue eyes, his consciousness was a little blurred, and he couldn't stop falling down.
It's so heavy.
He had never carried something so heavy before. He didn't even bring props to competitions because he thought it was too heavy and uncomfortable to move.
Is pain such a heavy thing?
Spade has never experienced anything like pain since birth.
He lacks the ability to empathize with people's joys, sorrows, anger and happiness. He doesn't understand the tears and hugs after victory, the painful howls of losing a loved one, or the joy and happiness of being understood.
Even though he had once been at the center of victory, pain, and desire, he was like a monster isolated from these emotions, and it always felt strange and weird when he reached out to touch these emotions.
His only obsession was when he was born in Siren Town, a strange man with a long ponytail and a white shirt smiled at him with his back to the light, his facial features blurred, and handed him a black bone whip.
"This is a relic of your previous life. I am returning it to you in its original form."
Spade looked up at the strange man and opened his mouth. He couldn't speak at that time, so he just uttered some incoherent syllables.
The man smiled, squatted down and looked down at Heitao lying on the ground: "The only reason I allowed you to be born is..."
"——You will use your victory and existence to make others suffer."
"The heart of pain is black." The man chuckled and placed the black bone whip on the side of his head. "I'll call you Spade."
So this is what the man wanted him to do.
So this is pain.
Spade's eyelids slowly drooped, and his body was tied up and fell down. He loosened his mouth, and countless bubbles surged across his face.
...Does Bai Liu also feel so uncomfortable when he is in pain?
"Spades."
"Wake up."
"Don't dwell on the illusion of pain."
The white bone whip pierced through the sea water like a bolt of lightning, breaking the water-patterned wall in front of Hei Tao. He suddenly came back to his senses. The person in front of him was no longer the smiling god Tavel holding Bai Liu. Instead, the person behind the water-patterned wall was Tavel who was staring at him without any joy or sadness.
Tavel's silver-blue eyes looked at Spade calmly.
"Your desire for Bai Liu is so strong that you will be affected by the [door] on my eyes."
"You've never had your spirit value drop before, right?"
[System warning: Player Spade's mental value has dropped by 20! Please be careful not to be fooled by the illusions generated in your subconscious! ]
Spade did not answer Tavel. Instead, he raised his hand without any emotion on his face and smashed it hard at the water-patterned wall. His voice was hoarse with stubbornness: "I want to win!!"
Bai Liu transformed his whip into a knife and stabbed out from behind the water-patterned wall. Just like in Hei Tao's illusion just now, he rushed straight to Hei Tao's face without hesitation!
The silk thread instantly hung on Hei Tao's right hand, and his whip and Bai Liu's dagger collided with Tavel's water-patterned wall, causing a huge burst of light and wind and waves. Neither of them retreated, but instead rushed forward relentlessly at this moment, their weapons were pressed against each other, and the expressions on their faces were almost like roaring evil.
“Lose to me!!”
"I want to win!!"
Outside the big screen.
The host slowly put down the microphone and opened his mouth. He was so stunned that he didn't even care about the commentary.
The audience was in total silence, making it hard to imagine that this was the most watched game since the mid-season tournament.
Mu Sicheng looked at Bai Liu on the big screen in a trance, almost doubting himself.
This person who is shouting at the top of his lungs...is he Bai Liu?
Bai Yi was completely stunned.
He had never seen Spade fight so hard and pursue victory so fiercely.
These two people who were calm and composed on the outside, at the end of the game, fought each other desperately for a victory that they didn't know where it would lead to. Even the fighting didn't look good. They punched, kicked, bit each other's arms, kicked each other's knees, and hit each other's necks. They had completely lost their order.
——It's like two children trying to beat each other in a game.
During the struggle, threads continuously appeared on Bai Liu and Hei Tao's bodies, connecting to the shrine. They were pulled by these threads, as if they were puppets controlled by the gods. However, they ignored the threads and struggled to attack each other savagely, as if they were two puppets that had developed their own minds and wanted to escape from control.
The two men hit each other again and then stepped back.
Bai Liu's body was covered with a layer of air film, his chest was heaving violently, and his face was covered with various wounds from the left eyebrow to the right corner of his lip. Some of the wounds were deep enough to reveal the bones and were oozing blood. His shoulders, neck, and back were all connected by silk threads.
He raised his hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth and looked straight at Spade opposite him.
Hei Tao's breathing was rapid. He held the bone whip in his hand with his backhand, still with an expressionless look on his face. However, his face was bruised and swollen from being beaten by Bai Liu, and his right and left wrists were tied with silk threads.
Tawil was suspended between the two men.
The two men looked at each other, turned around at the same time, raised their bone whips, and rushed towards Tavel in the middle again with great ferocity!
"I want to sacrifice him!" Heitao shouted hoarsely. He raised the whip high and swung it at Bai Liu's shoulder. His eyes showed a determination to fight to the death. "Get out of the way!"
Bai Liu's shoulder was directly broken by Hei Tao's whip. The whip in his hand fell to the bottom of the sea. He bit Hei Tao's wrist tightly with anger, his teeth digging into his skin. He screamed in a bloody voice: "I won't allow it!!!"
Hei Tao gritted his teeth, let go of the whip, raised his fist and hit Bai Liu's right eye. Bai Liu loosened his teeth, dodged to the side, and kicked Hei Tao on the knee at the same time.
The two men fell down while struggling.
Hei Tao bared his teeth and bit Bai Liu's shoulder hard.
He felt Bai Liu's shoulder tremble with pain, and he felt the pain from the wound on the back of his waist was so severe that his head felt like it was about to explode.
He felt that in this cold sea water, his eyes were burning for some reason.
The reason he won so many games was probably because Bai Liuyi had decided his fate, which made him subconsciously pursue victory and choose the ending that brought pain to everyone.
Only this one, only this one——
He was the one who endured the pain, and he was the one who wanted to win!!
Hei Tao bit down hard with a vicious expression, causing Bai Liu's shoulder to become deformed and bleed. Bai Liu groaned, and he heard the sound of his shoulder blade being crushed.
Without giving Bai Liu a moment to recover, Spade punched Bai Liu in the stomach with his right hand, and almost viciously knocked Bai Liu into the seabed. A transparent silk thread quickly grew out of his right hand that had hit Bai Liu. Spade did not stop, he quickly turned around and swam up to catch Tavier.
[System prompt: Player Bai Liu used the personal skill (Flash Attack) of player Mu Ke.]
Bai Liu, who had lost one hand, suddenly appeared and stood in front of Tavel. He lifted up his long hair soaked in blood and looked at Hei Tao who swam in front of him with a vicious look.
Time and again, over and over again, I lose to this man in this horror game.
——And then lose the most important thing in your life.
[Will you always play games with me in the future? ]
【Um.】
Xie Ta's serious answer still echoed in Bai Liu's ears.
Liar, liar, that's not the case at all.
If I had beaten you at least once between then and now, would this not have happened?
——Will the person who becomes the evil god become myself?
Bai Liu simply raised his hand and thrust the knife into Heitao's heart with great force. He placed the knife against Heitao's heart, grasped the handle, turned it around and pulled it out.
A burst of blood mist instantly burst out from Hei Tao's heart, and a transparent silk thread was instantly tied to Bai Liu's left hand that had stabbed the knife.
The two men retreated half a step with wounds all over their bodies, but without waiting for the other to catch his breath, they quickly approached each other and fought each other in close combat with whips like wild beasts.
The rain on the sea gradually stopped.
Yusen, who was sitting on a small boat, saw the shrine calm down and couldn't help showing joy on his face: "Let's go over and take a look. Maybe the offerings have been successfully made and we can make a wish."
"Yes." The boatman bowed and began to row the boat.
The boatman reached the shrine and jumped on board steadily. A huge firework suddenly exploded behind him, shining brightly in the night sky like a starry sky firework.
The servant beside him explained softly: "Master Yuchuan, now that the rain has stopped, the delayed fireworks display should start now."
"It's the perfect time." Yu Chuan shook his clothes and walked towards the messy shrine with an unconcealed sense of pride on his face. "This is the kind of lively background I should have when I make a wish."
They had only taken two steps when the entire shrine began to shake violently as if something was pulling it from below.
The servant screamed in fear, and Yusen held onto the stone lantern in front of the shrine in shock: "What's going on?! The evil god in my dream clearly told me that I could make a wish safely soon..."
Before he could finish, the ship-shaped shrine on the sea flipped over!
The boat fell directly into the sea!
His limbs twitched in panic, and large bubbles of air came out of his mouth which was open in fear.
Under the sea, Bai Liu and Hei Tao were almost beaten to the point where they could no longer be seen as human forms. Their bodies were covered with silk threads, and blood was constantly oozing out from various wounds of varying sizes on their bodies. They were pulling at each other, fighting for Tavel, who was in the middle and was once again sealed in silk threads and fell asleep.
The boat fell on top of Tawil, and he fearfully tried to reach the surface with his hands. He was well aware that if he was even touched by the fight between the two men, he would surely die.
But things did not go as planned. Bai Liu used a bone whip to accurately hit Youchuan's ankle, pulled him over like a water ball and threw him to Hei Tao's side, thereby blocking the opponent and delaying time.
And Spade did the same thing.
Tawil was tossed around by the two men like a sandbag and soon suffocated. With a purple face, he grabbed his own neck and kicked wildly, but his legs were entangled by the silk thread. The force of his kicking caused Tawil to sink a bit, and the sunken ship-shaped shrine turned over and was now completely submerged in the water, slowly sinking along with Tawil.
Bai Liu reached out to reach Tavel, but was rudely interrupted by Hei Tao. He could not reach Tavel, but only the silk thread on Tavel's body.
Hei Tao held Bai Liu's shoulders, blocked Bai Liu from behind, blocked Bai Liu's movement, and tried to snatch the silk thread from Bai Liu's hand.
Bai Liu suddenly took a deep breath, as if he had been waiting for a long time, finally waiting for the moment when Spade's back was close to him.
Before Hei Tao realized what was going to happen, Bai Liu turned his head suddenly and kissed Hei Tao with his eyes closed.
Spade's pupils shrank.
At the same time, Bai Liu pulled Tavel upwards. He held Tavel's hands and restricted Spade's movement in a cruel way, pushing Tavel into Spade's body from behind.
Hei Tao's pupils, who were being kissed by Bai Liu, dilated instantly. He felt his heart skip a beat and Bai Liu pushed something into his mouth.
It looks like a coin.
[System prompt: Player Spade Soul Fusion]
[System prompt: It is detected that the player Bai Liu has used the Soul Trading skill to trade with the soul of the player Hei Tao. Now the soul has returned, and the transaction voucher coin is on Hei Tao. The transaction is effective.]
[Player Bai Liu officially possesses the soul of Player Spade and has the authority to use Player Spade's system panel. ]
[Player Bai Liu uses Spade's Soul Coin to enter Player Spade's system panel and prepares to click the game exit button. ]
[System warning: Are you sure you want to click the Spade Game Exit button? Spade is currently in the game, and exiting the game will be considered as giving up the right to lose.]
【Player Bai Liu confirmed. 】
[System prompt: Player Spade has quit the game, the game is over. ]
The fireworks blossomed in large clusters on the sea, brilliant and colorful, making people dizzy. Under the sea, the boat bound by silk threads died with its eyes wide open and its mouth wide open, its expression twisted and painful, lying together with the sunken shrine on the seabed, as if it was the sacrifice being offered tonight.
Xiao Kui in the houseboat looked at the shrine disappearing in the distance, and she heard a voice in her ears.
The voice was peaceful, soft, and familiar, like the voice of the evil god named Tavel, or Bai Liu.
【God has fulfilled your wish. 】
【Someone is here to rescue you.】
Xiao Kui held onto the paper door of the boat house, looking at the dazzling fireworks in the sky, tears falling blankly.
This sacrificial game that tortured them is finally over?
viewing pool.
The moment the big screen went out, everyone in the wandering circus and the killer sequence who were sitting on the benches stood up at the same time and rushed to both sides of the big screen.
On both sides of the big screen are the exits for players. After the life-and-death fight just now, both Bai Liu and Hei Tao must be in bad condition when they come out and need help.
As expected, Bai Liu took one step forward and fell down on the second step. Hei Tao didn't even take a step forward, but fell straight down at the exit.
Bai Liu was caught by Tang Erda and Mu Sicheng.
He coughed several times with a pale face, his body and hair were covered with sea water, and he could smell a strong smell of blood.
Liao Ke and Bai Yi were about to reach out to take the spades, but Liao Ke quickly saw something and pulled Bai Yi back a few steps, shouting, "Wait, don't get close to the spades!!"
Spade, who was lying on the ground, coughed, staggered, and stood up on his elbows.
He slowly raised his head.
A huge alarm sounded throughout the viewing pool.
[System warning: Please quickly stay away from the pollution source and use mental bleach to maintain your mental value! ]
[A top-level contaminated NPC has escaped from the game! ! ]
Spade's face covered with wet hair was a pair of silver-blue eyes.
