Chapter 112: Game 26 [Sun]
"Hello, have you ever heard of the [Deformed Species]?"
"What?"
"I'm gathering the crowd. We'll be at the large statue in the center of the city soon to judge the Deformed for their past evil deeds. I wonder if you..."
“Bang!”
…
"Hello?"
“Bang!”
…
"Hello."
“Bang!”
…
"Um, I am..."
“Bang!”
…
"What are you doing? You're a Magician, right? Stop spreading this kind of news here. Just give up. No one will go with you!"
"We still have to rely on these wealthy and powerful [freaks] to give us food!"
"Besides, you [magicians] all live in the [college] and have never worked. You definitely don't know that the monthly [salary] that [humans] get nowadays is not even one percent of what it was seven years ago!"
"Also, not everyone can participate in this kind of thing!"
"If we were discovered, all nine of us in our family would be beheaded!"
"So, hurry up and leave!"
"Wait, I can give you money."
"No, no, hurry up and leave! The patrol will be here soon. If you waste any more time talking here, you'll get caught!"
"Bang!--"
…
Yu Yuanxiang walked from the back of the city to the front. The first few families would listen to her, but the further she walked, the less they wanted to pay attention to her.
It was like...seeing some [demon].
[Seventh] [Witch] has already flown into the air, and there is no way to ask for help from her now.
"Oh." Yu Yuanxiang walked alone in the small garden next to the sculpture and sighed, "If no one else comes, I can do it alone..."
"Yu Yuanxiang!? Is that you?" The girl's excited voice suddenly interrupted Yu Yuanxiang's muttering, "I'm Zhang Chanyi! Shan Rendong's roommate!!"
"Hey hey hey, look over here!! I'm here!!!"
"Senior Zhang Chanyi?"
Yu Yuanxiang looked up and saw a girl in tattered clothes washing clothes with her sleeves rolled up by the stream.
Crystal clear water droplets flowed down his somewhat dry skin, and Zhang Chanyi frowned slightly.
"Senior, are you washing clothes?" Yu Yuanxiang didn't know what the frown meant, so she walked over, squatted down, and asked Zhang Chanyi, "Is the water cold?"
"Oh, ah, water? It's not cold. I'm just curious, why did you come all the way to the city alone?"
Zhang Chanyi smiled and said, "I heard that you guys are planning to use the [Dance] incident to expose the true identity of the [Deformed Species]. Do you need my help? I'm good at gathering intelligence!"
"No need, senior sister, let me help you wash it." Yu Yuanxiang simply refused.
Because she still remembered what Tang Xiqin had told her before leaving the [College]: "Never trust the [College]." She thought that probably included her [classmates] as well.
"It doesn't matter. I'm used to it. You might as well tell me about your plan! I'm very interested in this, but Shan Honeysuckle just doesn't want to tell me." Zhang Chanyi paused for a moment and said.
"Sorry, senior sister, this is confidential," Yu Yuanxiang always felt that Zhang Chanyi was weird, "I can't tell anyone."
"Secret, huh... Ah, it's always the same reason."
"Yuan Xiang, do you still remember? In the war seven years ago, all of you, except me, participated in our freshman class."
"But why? Why do you always reject me...?!"
"In the seven years since I came to [College], I haven't been able to go anywhere except my dorm. I can't even attend the classes I so excitedly got. Why?"
"But why?! Yuanxiang, I really can't figure it out!!"
Yu Yuanxiang saw tears sliding down Zhang Chanyi's face. She reached out to wipe them away, but the raging fire hidden in the tears burned her.
"Senior..." Yu Yuanxiang looked at the water droplets burning fiercely on her knuckles and said, "But at least you are still alive."
"Look, how many people survived that war?"
"Maybe it's because you're a [genius], senior, that she locked you up in the dorm?"
Zhang Chanyi's tears flowed more and more, but she did not stop him.
The flames instantly ignited the clothes on her body and the clothes in her hands. The dazzling light made her look like a ball of light, brighter than the entire [world].
Yu Yuanxiang's academic performance was average, so she didn't quite understand why there was fire in the water.
"Senior, are you okay?" she asked.
“…”
"Senior?"
"Yuan Xiang, I'm here."
"Senior, are you in pain? The fire is so big, how can I save you?"
"...Yuanxiang, do you remember the first time we met?"
"Senior, I remember it was at the entrance to the entrance exam. You said you were a senior and that you were here to pick me up and take me to the auditorium."
"Then Yuanxiang, when will our last meeting be?"
"Senior...will you die?"
"Yuan Xiang, this isn't death. If this could be considered death, I would have been killed countless times by that group of people."
"But Senior, you are all on fire."
"Yuan Xiang, this is because I am [devouring] them."
"[Devouring]? Senior, are you also a [Deformed Alien]?"
"Ah, Yuanxiang, Mingjiao told you everything? Does this mean...she's dying?"
"Well, Senior Sister, Ming Jiao told me that Principal Zhang has trapped a lot of [Deformed Aliens] in the [Academy]."
"It seems... it's really time."
"Senior sister! Where are you going?!" Yu Yuanxiang stood up and grabbed the hand of Zhang Chanyi who turned and left.
"I'm going...haha, to use Ming Jiao's words, I'm going to 'show off my heroine'!"
"Senior!!!——"
“…”
“…”
“…”
…
…
…
“…!!! She’s awake!!!”
"Really?! Woke up so soon?!!"
"You..." Yu Yuanxiang felt as if something was ripped from her eyes. She opened her eyes and asked in confusion, "Who are you?"
Wasn't I just talking with Senior Zhang Chanyi in the small garden? How did I end up here in the blink of an eye?
"Oh, little girl, you have such a bad memory. Didn't you just tell us to gather the crowd and go together to expose the true identity of the [Deformed Species]?"
"You didn't hit your head, little girl, don't pretend to have amnesia! We won't buy it!!"
"That's right! We don't buy it!"
"By the way, little girl, let's set off quickly. From what you said before, time waits for no one!" The woman stretched out her hand and tilted her head to say to Yu Yuanxiang.
Yu Yuanxiang was stunned for a moment, then reached out and placed her hand on the woman's.
"well!!"
As the cheers of the surrounding crowd rang out, the whole [world] suddenly turned upside down!
Yu Yuanxiang's hands were being pulled by countless people, and she was falling to the bottom of the bottomless world!
Behind me, there was a fire.
Yu Yuanxiang turned around and saw Zhang Chanyi floating in the air, getting farther and farther away from her!
“Learn—Mmmmmm!!!!” Before she could even shout, her mouth was covered by a group of hands!
Yu Yuanxiang watched helplessly as everything in the [world] faded away, but was unable to move at all because of the restraints of the [crowd]!
The pitch-black [matter] enveloped her, and her thoughts were constantly magnified.
Yu Yuanxiang then discovered that it seemed like every [Magician] she knew had a symptom called [night blindness].
Moreover, in history, there has never been a [magician] who lived past the age of forty.
But they are clearly so powerful, how come no one has achieved [Immortality]!?
...Why is this happening?
…
…
…
“…”
“…”
“…”
"Little girl, are you back?"
When Yu Yuanxiang regained her hearing, she discovered that she could hear the voice of the [Seventh] [Witch] again.
"...Is it you?" She reached out and pulled off the blindfold and asked the person in front of her, "What's wrong with me?"
"Oh, it's okay. I just created a dream for you," the old woman took the cloth and patted Yu Yuanxiang on the shoulder. "Although it's more closely related to reality, little girl, you're really bad at communicating with humans."
"I had no choice but to slightly modify the content of the dream and then project it into reality."
"So, little girl, you don't have to doubt the authenticity of what you just experienced."
"Because they will be experiences unique to you and your classmate Xiao Zhang."
"Dream?" Yu Yuanxiang was shocked. "Can dreams be projected into reality?"
"Of course." The old woman raised an eyebrow and replied, "As long as I give enough, this world will give me the same amount of wishes in return."
"Okay, little girl, you should go to the sculpture now."
"Turn around."
“Wait, wait!”
Yu Yuanxiang was pushed by the old woman and turned around, and her legs began to run uncontrollably.
Unable to look back, she could only stare at the crowd gathering in the distance, and the two almost identical wheels in the sky—
【sun】.

"Ahem, everyone, just pretend you didn't see what happened just now!"
Shan Lao San stepped his left foot on his right foot, close to the ground, did a gorgeous spin on the ground, and stood up again.
"Hey!! This suicide note has a very impressive origin. It was written in blood by [that person] in prison before his execution!"
"[That person]?" He Yuezhe was curious. "Who is it?"
"Oh, [that person], of course, is one of the people who founded the [Academy] back then, known as a [genius]—uh, I forgot his name."
"Zhang Wanbai, Gao Weiyan, Zhao Lingqi, Sun Chaojianxi, Tang Faping, Guan Lian... who else is there?"
"Oh, anyway, all you need to know is that [that person] is very powerful—"
"Bang!"
"【Precognition】【Witch】Wang Jianying! Get to the point! What exactly is written on this scroll?" Tang Xiqin clenched her fists and hit Shan Laosan hard on the head.
"Well, it sounds good, so it's a good start."
"Host??"
"Oh oh oh oh oh! It hurts so much..." Shan Laosan fell to the ground, holding his head and crying, "I'll tell you, I'll tell you, I'll tell you now!"
"This scroll roughly records the [crimes] committed by those [deformed species] seven years ago, as well as some [truths]. You should all know them. There are also some... uh, some that I don't understand..."
"My goodness, no one here participated in that war except you. How could anyone know what the [crime] or [truth] was?" Tang Xiqin said, "Also, I don't understand what it means!?"
“Uh ah ah ah ah!!! Ouch, it’s like something about [Predation] [Magician], something about [Magic] [consuming] [Magician] [existence], or [Higher Level] being [Deformed Species], fish—that kind of thing… Other things, you don’t understand, so I, I can’t tell you! This Ouch, ...
"Please."
"It's okay, Captain. He's my adoptive father after all. It's been a while since we last met, so it's normal to catch up."
…
"Huh, it's finally quiet."
"Now it's your turn, Minglin," Tang Xiqin asked, "As a senior executive, a family member, and a partner of a magician, what do you think?"
Since Minglin's condition was really abnormal, He Yuezhe had no choice but to let her stay and recuperate.
"Can't it be [neutral]?" He Yuezhe asked back with a pout, somewhat unhappy.
Having to choose a camp or something...it's really boring.
"I knew it." Tang Xiqin held her forehead with her hand. "But if you remain [Neutral], then you really won't be able to participate in the rest of my life."
"Also, I need to tell you in advance that I will only consider you my friend if [you] kill [me] with your own hands."
Huh? What a weird setting.
"Wow, host! You absolutely cannot do that! Look, everyone around the mission target is 100% loyal and trusting of her. If you become a [Neutral] again—"
"Wouldn't that mean we couldn't complete the crucial plot point in the original storyline where the target of the mission was backstabbed to death by a villain?!!!"
“…”
Could it be that I am this “villain”? ? !
"Okay, I'll go with you." He Yuezhe lowered his head and said even more unhappily, "But, can you restore me to my previous state?"
"Are you a transvestite?" Tang Xiqin asked without hesitation.
He Yuezhe pulled out a dagger and stabbed it into the wall next to Tang Xiqin without any hesitation. He explained with a fierce expression, "No!"
"I just don't want others to know my existence!"
