222: Chapter 222: Werewolf Game (Part 23)

"How is this possible!"

Little Witch just watched as the mist surrounding her disappeared at a rate visible to the naked eye.

What had happened?

In Little Witch's eyes, she saw a strange flower floating over, and the black mist vanished right beside it.

"You disrupted my plans!"

"My immortality!"

"Damn it."

"My time is almost up; since that's the case, then none of you shall live."

Following Little Witch's voice, the village behind her vanished.

What came into view once again was the half-ruined village they had encountered upon arrival.

Everywhere, there were charred, dilapidated houses.

Out of the ruins, werewolves emerged one after another.

Qianye was surrounded by them.

Those werewolves still had remnants of their pre-transformation clothing clinging to them.

Qianye scanned the scraps and could roughly tell that these clothes belonged to the players.

Oh well, they've all transformed again.

Truly, the things you fear most are exactly what will come to pass.

In this game, some dangers are self-inflicted.

Little Witch stood in the center, flanked by gathered werewolves; her white dress fluttered without a breeze, and the black threads around the teddy bear in her arms became increasingly distinct.

In Qianye's eyes, the werewolves on both sides had their ankles entangled in dense, black threads, their eyes scarlet and gleaming with a ferocious light.

"Time is almost up, heh heh heh..."

As Little Witch's voice trailed off, the werewolves raised their heads, locked eyes with their opponents, and opened their blood-stained maws, sharp fangs dripping with viscous fluid.

Each one wore a ferocious expression, eager to tear the other apart.

At the same time, the ground suddenly began to tremble.

Accompanied by the tremors, the werewolves on both sides were already restless.

Qianye gazed into the void; night was falling again, and in the distance, darkness was devouring the light bit by bit.

"Oh well, they were just innocently dragged into this," Qianye muttered to herself.

The little flower in her hand heard the Master's words and instantly stopped playing dead.

Great, great, this means we're leaving.

Finally, we don't have to stay in this godforsaken place anymore.

The little flower's leaves and branches began to sway with excitement.

Ling Ling, Ling Ling, did you hear that? We're going to leave, and you can finally leave the Floating Life Pagoda.

Upon hearing this, Ling Ling flew out happily from Qianye's chest, her tiny body landing on the little flower's branches, hugging it excitedly.

"That's wonderful! Ling Ling is really curious about the outside world."

Qianye looked at the black threads gathering around them, then looked down at the two excited creatures in her hand.

Had they missed the point?

"Big Boss, Big Boss!"

In the silence, Qianye heard a familiar voice again.

She looked up and saw Hu Yuan jumping up and down not far away.

The ground was shaking continuously, getting more and more violent, and Hu Yuan had to jump left and right to keep his balance.

Just a moment ago, he had been excited about finding the Big Boss, but when he looked around, he saw the Big Boss about to be surrounded by werewolves.

Seeing the Big Boss's calm and composed demeanor, Hu Yuan felt that being by the Big Boss's side was the safest place.

She looked as if she had everything under control.

Qianye had no idea that her image in Hu Yuan's heart was so towering; at this moment, she was staring intently at Little Witch's movements.

She saw Little Witch manipulating the teddy bear in her hands, and the black threads on both sides were tightening continuously.

Under the manipulation of the black threads, the werewolves could no longer restrain themselves.

Baring their sharp fangs, the red light in their eyes flared, and they charged at each other.

"B-Big Boss, what do we do?"

These were all players; in the end, wouldn't only he and the Big Boss be left alive?

Hu Yuan dared not be sure.

Once these players who had turned into werewolves were gone, would it be their turn next?

But...

Hu Yuan looked at the Big Boss's appearance and truly admired her; even at a time like this, she remained so calm.

However, looking at the torn flesh and blood everywhere, he couldn't bear to watch any longer.

Hu Yuan subconsciously held his breath; the stench of blood was mixed with a foul odor, extremely pungent.

He looked at Qianye again; what exactly did the Big Boss want to do?

She seemed to be waiting for something.

Was it his imagination?

Was she just going to watch these players kill each other?

He gritted his teeth and clenched his fists.

"It's almost time."

He turned his head and saw the excited and wild smile on Qianye's face.

At the same time as the werewolves were fighting fiercely, a rumbling sound suddenly appeared.

It was somewhat similar to the tremors he had seen before.

In Hu Yuan's wide eyes, cracks appeared one after another in the midst of the werewolves, and the werewolves fell into them one by one.

The next instant, before he could even react, Hu Yuan saw the cracks close rapidly, and those werewolves were swallowed up just like that.

"What is going on?"

The next moment, the earthquake that had stopped continued again, and even the spot where Qianye stood was shaking constantly.

Hu Yuan looked at the Big Boss, and seeing her staring at the sky, he subconsciously followed her gaze, only to see an endless expanse of darkness.

Had the Big Boss discovered something?

In Qianye's eyes, the blackness above was becoming increasingly thick, carrying an oppressive aura, mixed with a nauseating stench.

Those people, they really won't stop until they reach their goal.

Qianye stood in place, the surroundings shaking incessantly.

Suddenly, a huge black hole appeared beneath her feet, threatening to swallow her whole.

Countless black mists surged out, wrapping Qianye completely within them.

Within the black mist, scarlet eyes stared at Qianye.

"Hehehe~"

"Finally, you are still going to become my nourishment."

"Hehehe..."

In the black mist, a childish voice appeared one moment, and then switched to a rough voice the next, the two voices occasionally merging together.

Hu Yuan, standing by, watched helplessly as the Big Boss was swallowed by the black mist.

He himself was severely corroded just by touching the black mist.

"Damn it."

Hu Yuan gritted his teeth and prayed in his heart.

The Big Boss is the Big Boss.

She will definitely be fine.

For a long time, there was not a single movement from the black mist.

"Oh, to think there's actually one fish that slipped through the net."

"That shouldn't be."

"Come, join me, and you will be liberated immediately."

Hu Yuan wanted to flee, but after one look at that scarlet glow, he found himself unable to move.

His eyes were filled with terror and regret.

He had worked so hard to get this far.

Looking at the still-roiling black mist, what was happening? Could it be that the Big Boss had also been...

"Come quickly, become a part of me..."

"We will be liberated~"

"Heeheehee~"

"Ugh..." No, no, no.

Hu Yuan realized with horror that his body was stepping closer to it.

Even though he was unwilling, he had lost control of his body and could only watch helplessly as he got closer and closer to the black mist.

"Sigh..."

Suddenly, a faint sigh.

It successfully caused the black mist to stop roiling.

The scarlet eyes were spinning constantly, as if looking for the source of the sound, but no one could be seen.

Only Hu Yuan, the moment he heard this sound, his eyes lit up.

As expected...

"That really makes one feel sad!"

"I am willing to merge into one with you, but it seems your..."

"Body... is unwilling to accept me."

The black mist kept growing, filling this entire space.

Only then did Hu Yuan realize that there seemed to be a barrier around them, separating this black mist from the outside world.

Even though it grew larger, it was trapped in this one area.

"How is this possible!"

"You..."

The black mist's tone became sharp, filled with disbelief.
