Chapter 263 Puppet Castle (5) Don't let him die in vain



Su Deng herself hadn't expected that her three companions were Qin Xian, Su Muye, and Yan Sizhan...

Of the three companions, two are imposters.

In other words, only one of these three people is real.

How can we tell the difference?

Throughout the journey, Su Deng hadn't noticed anything amiss between Qin Xian and Su Muye.

As for Yan Sizhan in front of us...

The blood mole in her palm was burning hot. Su Deng looked at his tightly closed eyes and whispered, "Yan Sizhan, can you hear me?"

Yan Sizhan's eyelashes fluttered slightly as he slowly opened his eyes. His pupils and eyeballs were pitch black, like a stagnant pool of water. Only after a moment of confusion did his eyes light up when he saw Su Deng.

"You've come," he said, his voice a little hoarse.

Su Deng pursed her lips. "You knew I would come."

Yan Sizhan shook his head, then nodded, showing no surprise at his current situation. His words were astonishing: "I am now its heart."

He looked at Su Deng and said, “You are very smart. I believe you will guess that this castle is the puppet monster itself, and its heart is its weakness. And you will find this place.”

He said, "Kill me, and the game is over."

Su Deng paused slightly, "You know I can't kill you."

"You can do it." Yan Sizhan looked at her calmly, his voice much better than before. "You can break my seal, or you can kill me."

He said, word by word, "You are the weapon that will kill me."

I tried to kill him several times before, but he didn't die. Of course, an ordinary dagger wouldn't be able to kill him.

But things are different now; Su Deng has the weapon to kill him.

"Su Deng, kill me, and this game will be over." Yan Sizhan's voice kept echoing in her ears.

"Oh dear, my sister has discovered my secret and found my heart!" Xiao You's voice rang out. "Hehehe... Sister, hurry up and make your choice..."

"...What choice?" Qin Xian didn't quite understand.

Su Muye broke free from his embrace, ran to Su Deng's side, looked at Yan Sizhan in front of her, and hesitated to speak.

"There are three of your companions here, two of whom are fake..." Xiao You repeated this game prompt, her laughter piercing. "Sister, hurry up and make a choice to kill them, or you'll become a puppet forever, staying here to play with me~"

"What?!" Qin Xian's face immediately turned pale. "Su Deng..."

There's no need to guess anymore, all three of them are real!

Su Deng's fingertips trembled slightly as she looked at the three people in front of her, her expression momentarily blank.

Those who died because of her in the past, those who were her inner demons, were all dragged out by the God and simulated to appear in the game as beings that tormented her.

Those were all dead people. She broke through the barrier, slaying everything, no longer trapped by the dead.

Thus, living people appeared in this game.

Those who are alive, those with the deepest ties to her, those she cares about...

Let her go and kill.

Two more need to be killed.

Therefore, this game has always remained under the control of the God.

She thought that as long as she relied on her invincibility and didn't follow the rules of the game, she could break the deadlock.

In the end, everything remained within this game; she never truly escaped it.

Like a puppet, even if it develops its own consciousness and has its own actions, it is still tied to countless threads, the source of which is held in the hands of the manipulator.

"hehe……"

Su Deng stumbled, a cold, chilling laugh escaping her throat.

Qin Xian wanted to say something, but he withdrew his outstretched hand from her shoulder. "Su Deng..."

"Mom." Su Muyue walked over and hugged her, saying, "Kill me."

"Ono!" Qin Xian's expression changed slightly as he spoke in front of Su Deng, gritting his teeth, "No way!"

“Mom, Uncle Qin Xian.” Su Muye’s innocent eyes were full of seriousness. “I came from the future and don’t exist in this timeline. Even if I die, as long as Mom and Dad are alive, I will be reborn in the future.”

"Su Muye..." Qin Xian's throat felt a little dry.

Putting aside Qin Xian and Su Muye, Yan Sizhan is the heart of this ancient castle. To break the deadlock, it is necessary to kill him.

...there was simply no other way to go.

“Su Deng,” Yan Sizhan spoke again, his eyes dark, “As long as my heart is still here, I will not die completely. I will find my heart and figure out who you are. Until then, you must live, so kill me without hesitation.”

"No..." Su Deng seemed not to hear, staggering backward, "There must be other ways..."

There must be.

Liu Sangua said she was the chosen one, and she would definitely be able to break the deadlock!

Of course!

*Pfft*

Suddenly, I heard the sound of swords piercing flesh.

Su Deng suddenly looked up and saw Qin Xian holding a dagger and stabbing himself in the heart, the blood flowing out was bright red and glaring.

“Qin Xian…” Su Deng’s pupils dilated violently, “Qin Xian…”

“If you can’t make a decision, I’ll do it for you.” Qin Xian recoiled in pain, leaning against a pillar in the garden, his face weak and pale, yet he still smiled at her. “Su Deng, I know, I should have died long ago, or maybe I already am, just trapped in this game world…”

"Whether I can be resurrected or not, I'm doing this voluntarily! You must get out of here, complete this hellish game, find the God, and kill him!"

"Uncle Qin Xian!" Su Muye ran over in astonishment, "Uncle Qin Xian..."

"Good boy." Qin Xian laboriously raised his hand and patted his head. "Don't be sad..."

"Qin Xian..." Su Deng's face was pale. She never expected Qin Xian to make such a choice. She staggered over and exchanged the hemostatic medicine from the system store without asking for any points.
