Chapter 250: White Orchid Rain Festival (Thirty-two)
"President, is this really possible?"
Doll looked at her own president uncertainly, half doubting what she had just said, but also felt relieved for a moment because this just happened to explain the other party's strange behavior throughout the day.
Miao Jiang did not answer immediately, but looked at the other party with a gloomy look, which made the other party feel uneasy, and then he slowly said, "The system gives you the right to choose, which means that this path is feasible. Or do you think that at our current level, there is any advantage in competing with the eldest lady and the guild alliance?"
"If the path we have chosen is successful, it will be a win-win situation."
In fact, Miao Jiang was a little hesitant at first, but when he saw that the gambler president also failed, and the eldest lady and the president came out of the pawnshop unharmed, he made up his mind the moment he got the clue.
The doll instantly understood the meaning of killing two birds with one stone. The temptation was indeed great. In addition, now that the Gambler's Guild President had already obtained a piece of the Faith Totem fragment, there were indeed not many opportunities left for them.
"So what are we going to do?"
Miao Jiang's words were ambiguous, and Wawa was still unclear about the specific operation process. There were only two of them in the room, and even the remaining two players from their guild were not allowed in for the time being. Wawa thought that Miao Jiang was on guard.
"Just wait and see, tonight...hiss..."
Miao Jiang was not in a hurry, but before he could finish his words, he felt a discomfort in his arm.
The itching on her skin had been tormenting her the entire day, but the feeling didn't seem to really exist. Every time she scratched it with her hands, wanting to tear her skin apart, it would return to normal as if nothing had happened.
And this feeling seemed to have stopped since the young lady's players came out of the pawn shop, until this moment.
"President... President... are you... are you okay?"
The doll looked at Miao Jiang's arm. The blood vessels on it went from blurry to gradually clear, and then popped up little by little on the outermost layer of skin. The purple-blue color looked very scary.
When it reaches a certain critical point, a blue flame pattern appears on the skin, from blurry to clear.
Miao Jiang could feel more than just pain. It seemed that the moment she made up her mind, something invaded her body. It seemed that that thing had always been in her body and was awakened only because of her choice.
This process was repeated several times before it died down.
It's like a warning and also like a reminder.
"It gave me the right to choose, so I have to ask for the result. Wait, there should be something exciting to watch tonight..."
Inside the room, the voices of the two people could not be heard in the yard at all because of the shielding settings.
But the Gambler's Guild President, who was standing in the shadow of the window behind him, still saw the familiar blue flame in the room.
His guess was confirmed to some extent, and he did not stay in Miaojiang's yard for too long and returned to his own yard.
As midnight approached, the flowers grew noticeably larger and, at the exact same time as the night before, they turned into gigantic blood-sucking monsters.
With the experience of last night, everyone was able to handle it with ease this time, except that the players found that the amount of blood required to enlarge the flowers was significantly higher than last night.
Of course, this obvious step-by-step increase is only limited to those players who drank the black-smelling water sent by the butler for two consecutive nights.
On the Anti-One Guild Alliance side, only the players in the courtyards of Guild President Gambler and Guild President Miao Jiang did not drink the water placed in the room by the butler. The former was because he had to confirm something and had not taken time to do so, while the latter was because he had finally made his choice and no longer cared.
On the guild alliance side, thanks to the eldest lady, although the players' flowers have grown up, they are not very aggressive.
"Miss, did you vomit this tonight?"
After the flower finished sucking blood, except for Bei Xi who had not arrived yet, the rest of the players temporarily gathered in the eldest lady's room.
The place had been cleaned up by Lingyue who arrived the fastest, but the pile of human bones in the corner of the room was still shocking. President Alice came closer to study it, "How do you think it swallowed such a big thing? And it looks like it hasn't digested it yet, and it vomited it out again. Using this thing as a sacrifice for the rain sacrifice, I'm afraid even the Dragon God would find it disgusting?"
She twisted her fingers and showed a look of disgust.
"I don't think it's right either," President Barbie was obviously thinking about the same question, "and the colors of our flowers are not right. At present, it seems that only the color of the eldest lady's flower is closest to the white orchid."
At this moment, everyone's flowers were placed in the eldest lady's room. Everyone had to admit that they didn't seem to notice when the flowers were small, but they grew up all of a sudden and came in various different colors. They looked strange no matter how you looked at them. Except for the eldest lady's pot, the others had no aesthetic appeal at all.
"So there must be something wrong with this high priest's mansion and the high priest who has not yet shown up, but we can't be distracted tonight," Nan Huan had obviously realized this since last night, but she had something more important to do tonight, so after saying this, her eyes kept looking towards the door.
"Did the president say anything to do?"
Normally, without waiting for Nan Huan to urge her, Bei Xi would appear in Hua Hua's room immediately after she finished sucking blood. But tonight, Bei Xi sent Ling Yue over first and told her that he would come later. There has been no news since then, and even Nineteen has not shown up.
Lingyue shook her head and was about to go to the president's room to check when there was finally movement at the door.
"President Yi, you are finally here?" President Hongfen was the closest. "Did something happen?"
She was a little curious. After all, it was the first time she saw a president making the young lady wait for so long.
Bei Xi did not answer immediately, but walked into the house with a blank expression. However, considering that she was not usually a gentle person, no one found it strange and just thought something had happened.
However, the moment Nan Huan emerged from Bei Xi, his brows knitted together, and he stood up with a fierce look on his face. Before anyone else could react, he had already pulled out a sword from the control panel and pointed it at the opponent's throat, blocking her progress. "Who are you? Where is the real president?"
"Hey hey... Miss, be careful..." Nineteen, who was outside the door and was about to wait a little longer to come in, saw this and hurriedly pushed the real Bei Xi in. But he immediately rushed to the side of the Miss and carefully moved away the other's sword, "This... President Yi is a treasure now, you must not touch it..."
Everyone was stunned for a moment, not understanding what the director was doing and why he suddenly created someone exactly like him.
Only Nan Huan seemed to have guessed what the other party was going to do, and his face looked very bad.
President Barbie didn't understand how President Yi did it at first, but after hearing what Nineteen said, she seemed to have thought of something and suddenly raised her voice, "Is this the cursed doll in the mall?"
The originally awkward atmosphere was diverted because of her words.
"What is a spell doll? How come I have never heard of it?"
President Alice approached the identical fake President Yi with some curiosity, trying to tell the difference between her and the real President Yi, but she couldn't find any difference no matter which angle she looked at. Even the cold aura on the other person was similar to that of the President Yi.
President Barbie couldn't stand it anymore, and in Nineteen's frightened eyes, she pulled the other person back and said, "Be careful..."
After saying this, she seemed to be worried, and turned to the Pink President and the Worker President and warned them, "You should be careful too. This is a magic doll made from the blood and hair of the First President. It is exactly the same as the First President, except that it cannot think and has no consciousness of its own. You can even say that the whole magic doll has now become the First President's body."
Alice was so shocked when she said this that she wanted to jump three feet away.
"Is there such a thing in the mall? How come I don't know anything about it?" She turned around and looked at the real Bei Xi after she was shocked. "Chairman, what are you going to do with this thing?"
Nan Huan seemed to have finally lost her patience. Before Bei Xi could answer, she spoke first, "I don't agree. I can do it alone. It's too dangerous for you to do this. I don't agree."
Perhaps it was because Nan Huan had always been gentle to others, so everyone was a little surprised when she suddenly expressed her opinion so firmly and with such a righteous attitude.
President Barbie also thought of the intention of the president at this time. Although the quarrel between the eldest lady and the president was a private matter, this matter was related to the comfort of the president and their copy after all, so she stood on the side of the eldest lady this time, "I think what the eldest lady said is right, it is too dangerous for you to do this, especially since the curse doll has no defense ability at all. Once the curse doll itself is damaged, you will also be injured."
Bei Xi hadn't had time to say a word since she entered the room when she was criticized. "It's not as exaggerated as you say. Besides, I brought this thing here so that you can keep an eye on it tonight."
Bei Xi felt a little regretful. She had originally wanted to let Nan Hu'an see that there were other presidents here watching over the cursed doll and she would not be in any danger. But now seeing that President Barbie also objected, she thought it would be better for her to discuss it with Nan Huan alone.
"Is there any other use for this tool?"
President Alice saw that the young lady's face was getting worse and worse, and because of the request of the president, she could not leave directly, so she had to communicate with the president of the worker who also had a very serious expression.
"It has no other uses. Because of its high price, it was chosen as the least popular item. It needs the player's blood and hair to activate. After activation, the curse doll becomes the player's body. It has no attack ability, but can decide the player's life or death. So I have never seen a player use this useless disguise. I didn't expect that the president would actually dig out this thing in order to leave the High Priest's Mansion at night."
“President Alice and President Pink understood the shortcomings of this prop and finally understood President Barbie’s concerns.
"Okay, we don't have much time," Bei Xi sighed helplessly, walked to Nan Huan's side, and took his hand. "I'm not just worried about you, but I have a reason to go to the Dragon God Temple. When we first saw the saint in the pawn ticket of Yizhihua, I had a familiar feeling. She reminded me of you."
Bei Xi whispered the following words to Nan Huan, "Besides, you also saw a scent that looked like Man Wugui in Yizhihua's pawn ticket. Why would the evil god care about her? If she shows up at the Dragon God Temple again, how can I let you go alone?"
"Besides, you haven't used your soul-leaving ability yet, so who knows what will happen?" Seeing that she was still unwilling to give in, Bei Xi continued to add his own reasons, "I have to be where I can see you, so I will feel more at ease."
"With so many guild leaders here, it's safe to put the cursed doll here. We are now partners, Miss, you have to learn to trust your teammates?"
This was a complete substitution of concepts, and Nan Huan was so angry that he laughed. From the corner of his eye, he saw that the other presidents inadvertently straightened their chests when they heard this.
"Miss, you haven't seen my ability yet. If I can't protect this cursed doll, I will definitely die before the president."
The president of the workers' union made a solemn promise, and Nan Huan finally couldn't hold it anymore.
"The rule that you cannot leave the High Priest's Mansion at night was set by the housekeeper. Can this spell doll really be regarded as your still staying in the High Priest's Mansion?"
When everyone heard her agree, they knew that the eldest lady agreed to this matter.
Barbie came out to explain, "The cursed doll is essentially the player's real body, and the rules should not be triggered, but it is possible that the butler has confirmed that the cursed doll is not the real you. The butler did not come to check on the room last night, but it is possible that he will not show up tonight, so there is still a risk."
Nan Huan knew that President Barbie was a pragmatic person, so if she said it was okay, there should be no problem.
"The president is fine, but how are you going to get out, young lady? Are you going to get a cursed doll as well?"
President Alice saw that their eyes were all focused on the first president, so she was very curious about what secret weapon the eldest lady had.
A minute later, the eldest lady, who was originally participating in the discussion, seemed to be stuck for a moment, and then returned to normal.
Only Bei Xi noticed that there seemed to be an extra person next to him, but he could not see anything. And there was still only one living Nan Huan in the room, who could speak and move freely, and even his expression and intonation did not change.
"Did the young lady use her skills?" President Alice turned around, not quite understanding, "I didn't see anything... Huh? Who touched my hair?"
Before she could finish her words, she felt as if her hair was brushed by a hand, but there was no one behind her.
"She's right behind you."
Bei Xi kindly explained, "The skill has taken effect, but I didn't expect that this kind of 'soul leaving the body' can actually keep the body in its original state."
"Not only that," a familiar voice finally came from an empty location, "I can feel the connection between myself and my body. I seem to be able to remotely control her movements and speech. I can even hear your conversation."
She tried to control her body and bowed to everyone, "It's like this."
"Is this skill too amazing?"
The pink president wanted to bite her handkerchief, and envied her again and again, "It's simply a superb skill of lurking. You can do many things quietly without being noticed. Your disguise is much better than the president's spell doll."
President Barbie, President Alice and President Workers were all very envious, but the key point was that they all knew very well that this skill did not seem to be the eldest lady's real personal skill.
After the technical problems were solved, the guild alliance began to discuss corresponding defense countermeasures.
Compared to the bustling Guild Alliance, the yard of the Anti-Guild Alliance became much quieter after the flowers sucked all the blood. Soon there was no sound, and everyone seemed to be very tired from the high intensity of today.
It was not until the Gambler's Guild President, who was hiding in the darkness, finally heard the sound of a door opening in the yard of the Miao Jiang President next door.
