Chapter 128 Chapter 128 The Werewolf Game Begins!
128
Above the temple, smoke curled up.
The burning incense on the incense burner turned into ashes and fell down. The moment it fell, the whole hall was filled with the sound of burning incense hitting the ground.
A faint white light overflowed from the incense ashes and quickly disappeared.
Douma accidentally caught a glimpse of this and tilted his head in confusion.
Soon his attention was diverted. He looked at the injured Li Xiaoqi and felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
Tong Mo's brows were filled with confusion. The more he stared at Li Xiaoqi, the more he felt that she was shrouded in a hazy light, as if she was there and not there, within reach yet out of reach. This made his heart fluctuate, and he felt that something was wrong.
Li Xiaoqi fell to the ground, gasping for breath as she looked at the dim eaves above.
Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Rengoku Kyojuro standing beside her with his head lowered, the veins on his hands visibly bulging.
Li Xiaoqi became nervous again, fearing that Rengoku Kyojuro would suddenly attack.
The strongest ghosts are all here, he has no chance of winning alone.
Unexpectedly, Rengoku Kyojuro looked over and met Li Xiaoqi's eyes.
He seemed to be trying hard to suppress the murderous aura in his body, and he didn't let Muzan Kibutsuji notice it.
Perhaps Muzan and the others did not take Rengoku Kyojuro, who had lost his memory, seriously at all, so they did not care whether he existed or not.
Rengoku Kyojuro slowly loosened his clenched fists and said silently, "Don't worry."
Li Xiaoqi curled the corners of his lips slightly and felt relieved.
The sensible teenager quickly understood the situation and chose to deal with it calmly.
Rengoku Kyojuro did not say a word and stood quietly behind Muzan Kibutsuji.
These most powerful ghosts really did not take Rengoku Kyojuro seriously and did not even look at him once.
[Wait, this development is so sudden]
[Ahhh, my Qiqi is injured]
[I just went to the toilet, why did Xiaoqi fall down? ]
[Luckily, I have a ghost's physique and can regenerate, but this must be painful.]
[Fuck, looking at Big Brother's expression, has his memory recovered?]
[Oh my god, he's recovered. Big brother told Xiaoqi not to worry. He's so reliable.]
On the live broadcast interface, the audience was shocked by this sudden development, and the screen was almost full of question marks.
The lights from the festival outside shone through the crack in the door, brushing against the pieces of wood.
My heart was burning, and suddenly my throat felt like it was being strangled, and I couldn't speak.
Li Xiaoqi's eyes were blurred, and he raised his hands to cover his neck with a look of pain and suffocation.
In a trance, it seemed as if a dark shadow was pressing down on her, grabbing her neck tightly.
The knife flashed, and tiny fragments of light and shadow fell into the eyes.
Li Xiaoqi saw that the black shadow was still holding a knife, and the knife fell on his body again and again, poking countless holes in it.
"Ms. Nana!"
The shout of Muzan Kibutsuji reached my ears.
Li Xiaoqi suddenly came back to his senses, his red eyes fixed on the wood on the eaves, there was no black shadow.
She rolled her eyes and saw the panicked eyes of Muzan Kibutsuji.
Li Xiaoqi was surprised. It was the first time he saw the Ghost King so nervous around a member of the opposite sex.
The thing that makes her feel uncomfortable is herself.
Muzan Kibutsuji held her upper body and let her lean on his chest.
The ghost's chest was solid and hard, but without any warmth.
Li Xiaoqi lowered her eyes slightly, and suddenly remembered the day before she left the world of curse. Dazai Osamu suddenly went crazy and imprisoned her on the sofa, and his entire breath enveloped her.
That person's eyes are often unpredictable, and he may inadvertently reveal a cold expression that seems to indicate that nothing matters.
But his chest and arms were warm.
She opened her lips, and his name almost slipped out in confusion, but fortunately, Kokushibo's voice brought her back to her senses.
"Ms. Nana, please bear with it for a moment."
Kokushibo half-knelt on the ground, staying beside Li Xiaoqi. He grasped the dagger and pulled it out suddenly. With a "puff" sound, blood splattered everywhere.
Soon, the blood-stained dagger was taken away by Douma. He looked through it and told Douma what he had discovered.
"It seems like a lot of wisteria poison has been applied."
As Douma finished speaking, a look of surprise appeared between his brows.
The dagger in his hand turned into a white spot of light, and his palm was empty.
"Disappeared?"
Muzan Kibutsuji frowned slightly, with doubt flashing in his eyes and a look of vigilance passing across his face for a moment.
Kokushibo's eyes were fixed on Li Xiaoqi. His hands moved slightly, and then put back in place the next moment.
The white light spot that was thought to have disappeared reappeared, dancing in the air like a stream of water, and finally landed beside Li Xiaoqi to form a treasure chest inlaid with gold edges.
Li Xiaoqi blinked slowly and subconsciously reached out to touch the treasure chest.
"wait……"
Before Muzan Kibutsuji could say anything about the organization, Li Xiaoqi's fingertips touched the lid of the treasure chest.
"It's okay. This box contains the energy that the monsters stole from the Space-Time Administration. They will steal this energy to strengthen themselves..."
"Once we destroy the space they created, a treasure chest will form. Inside the treasure chest is the energy stored by the Space-Time Administration. This energy is the life force that maintains the dimension where the Space-Time Administration is located."
"It hurts... I don't know if what I said is logical..."
Seven-colored light flowed out of the treasure chest and flowed into Li Xiaoqi's body.
The treasure chest disappeared, and it seemed as if there had never been any chest on the floor.
So, a treasure chest exploded from her???
Li Xiaoqi was secretly complaining in her heart, and the pain in her heart made her whole body numb.
Muzan Kibutsuji, Douma, and Kokushibo were stunned and looked at her without saying a word.
Li Xiaoqi coughed lightly a few times, then sat up while holding onto Muzan Kibutsuji's shoulders.
She lowered her head and stared at the blood on her chest.
Li Xiaoqi curled the corners of his mouth and felt very impressed with himself. Even in this situation, he could still make up stories and complete the settings.
The silver-white hair tips were dyed red and fluttered with the movement of the body.
Li Xiaoqi refused the hand extended by Muzan Kibutsuji and stood up with difficulty to steady his body.
She looked towards the anchor point inside the temple and walked towards it step by step.
Tong Ma looked at Li Xiaoqi's back. The thin figure stood straight, as if there was a core inserted from head to toe, preventing her from bending over.
Suddenly, the strange beating sound was heard again in the chest.
He touched his chest and murmured silently.
“This feeling is incredible.”
"Women like this are always so dazzling that I can't help myself."
"The purchase period for the CG 'I'll Give You My Heart' has ended. According to statistics, a total of 121 tickets have been sold, and the streamer has earned 3630 gold coins."
"Tick-tick! Douma's favorability increased by 5 points."
"As of now, Muzan Kibutsuji's favorability is 75, Kokushibo's favorability is 80, Douma's favorability is 70, and Akaza's favorability is 0."
June's voice rang in his mind. When June finished reading these words, Li Xiaoqi stood in front of the anchor point.
As they said, the dagger was coated with a considerable amount of wisteria poison, so that the wound on the chest showed no signs of healing.
...That's right, she is actually still a weak newborn ghost who has never eaten a human.
She didn't understand why the dagger ended up stabbing her, and with confusion she reached out and pressed on the anchor device.
In an instant, the temple was enveloped in a blue light.
The strong light made Muzan Kibutsuji squint his eyes, and an unknown power filled the temple.
Suddenly, the door of the temple was broken open.
"Purgatory!"
The white haori fluttered, and Uzui Uzui rushed in holding the Nichirin Sword, followed by Tomioka Giyu.
When Li Xiaoqi looked over, his eyes almost turned black and he almost fell down.
What are you two doing here?
When Fushigawa Shigeya and Tomioka Giyu saw the scene inside the temple, their eyes widened in disbelief.
An unknown force stirred up air currents, forming one shackle after another that drew everyone in.
The anchor floated up, and the administrator June was broadcasting the prompt that the anchor was successfully opened.
"Congratulations to the host for successfully opening the anchor point. The exploration level has increased by 20%."
"Congratulations to the host for obtaining a gorgeous treasure chest. You received 160 gold coins. The items you found are: Special Summon Ticket Fragment x1, Key to Somewhere x1, Wind God's Eye x1, and a Page from the 'Book' x1."
Li Xiaoqi was very surprised. He didn't expect that the treasure chest also contained the Eye of God and a page of the "book".
My body floated up, and suddenly my vision blurred, and the coldness of the air swept over my skin.
She stared blankly at the crescent moon in the sky, and the next moment her body was surrounded by a feeling of weightlessness.
Li Xiaoqi came to his senses and immediately looked for Rengoku Kyojuro, Tomioka Giyu and Busei Gawa Minoru. When he found out they were gone, he felt relieved.
"Hey, where are we now? The Demon Slayers are gone?"
Douma blinked, looked at the sky that was getting farther and farther away, and shouted excitedly.
"Wait... We haven't gotten out of the space created by the monster yet. There's another space hidden within that space!"
Li Xiaoqi shouted loudly.
"As soon as we emerge from the previous dimension, we are immediately pulled into the next dimension, and this dimension is likely to merge with reality."
According to previous experience, the basements and buildings that suddenly appeared were almost the result of the fusion of the system's creations with this world. After they opened the anchor point, these system creations would disappear.
When she saw the towering spire, she suddenly realized that the system had initially mentioned that they should rescue the princess who was imprisoned in the tower.
They had forgotten everything!
"We still have to rescue the princess—"
Li Xiaoqi's voice continued to echo in the air.
Muzan Kibutsuji and Kokushibo's expressions changed, and confusion appeared on their faces.
"How could I possibly forget...?"
Douma groaned, and even though he was falling, he calmly raised his hand and stroked his chin, with a look of sudden enlightenment.
"Could it be the incense from the temple?"
"The incense is covered in the monster's energy, creating a disorienting effect that makes us unintentionally forget our ultimate goal."
"Think back, the obstacles created by space have strange characteristics from beginning to end. They clearly want to save the princess, but they require a teammate to sacrifice a heart to complete the final level. Hmm, it's inconsistent."
Li Xiaoqi was shocked. It was the first time he encountered such a system setting.
Even though the anchor point has been unlocked, the challenge is not over yet.
Is there another anchor point next?
She didn't have time to think about what the system was doing. If she continued to fall, she would definitely turn into a meat patty.
Although the body can regenerate after becoming a ghost, I still don’t want to turn into a meat patty or something!
"Ms. Nana!"
Muzan Kibutsuji's shout was heard.
Li Xiaoqi looked over and saw that Muzan Kibutsuji, Douma and Kokushibo were actually wrapped in a beam of red light, and their bodies fell into a black vortex that suddenly appeared.
"Please note, an anchor point has been detected nearby. Please enable the anchor point as soon as possible."
"Please note that from now on, upon entering the area near the anchor point, the system will randomly use backpack props. The anchor must find the anchor point and successfully activate it before the props are exhausted. Otherwise, the mission will be considered failed and both anchors will be eliminated."
"Werewolf Killing Experience Coupon x1 has been used."
A series of system prompts gave Li Xiaoqi a headache. When he heard that the props were about to be consumed and the anchor point had to be opened before they were consumed, his face instantly became grim.
“Fuck ahh ...
[Welcome all adventurers to the Swordsmith Village! Due to the game settings, all adventurers need to separate temporarily. ]
What village?
Li Xiaoqi's brain froze, and he couldn't understand the twists and turns of the development.
[Werewolf game begins! There are 8 participants, divided into werewolves and civilians. The civilians include three clergymen...]
An emotionless mechanical female voice came from the sky. Li Xiaoqi opened his mouth wide and let the wind pour into his mouth.
What did she hear?
Werewolf?
Was the item just consumed a Werewolf experience voucher?
