Chapter 18: The Turning Wheel of Fortune

I don't know if it was an illusion or what, Shirley, who was sitting on the ground panting, only felt as if the light around her had dimmed. A strange sense of distortion appeared beside her, and at this time, Shirley reacted, not that the light was dimmed, but that Qiē had actually lost its color at this moment, including Siluvia, who was comforting her beside her.

"What's going on?"

Shirley looked around for some reason, as if time had stood still, and everyone's movements were frozen on the spot, and only she was able to move her body freely. This strange sense of distortion was always there, and she didn't know what was going on, what she was up against.

At this moment, Shirley only felt that a black light suddenly appeared in front of her, and the black light slowly condensed into a figure wearing a black cloak. The figure was hiding its whole body in the shadows, and his appearance made Shirley subconsciously alert, and it was interesting that the black figure did not walk towards Shirley.

"Congratulations, newbie, you're lucky you've been chosen."

The black figure said this lightly, and Shirley still couldn't see the expression on his face, only sure that it was a male voice.

"Selected? Greenhorn? What do you mean? ”

Shirley looked puzzled, she didn't understand what the dark shadow meant. This was also a little inexplicable, but she suddenly felt that she understood something, especially the continuous misfortunes and strange events encountered in the past few days, as if there was a huge hand manipulating, which was weird and outrageous.

"Do you think this qiē is all accidental? From a space teleportation accident to your being attacked by a demonic mech? ”

The dark shadow continued to speak lightly, and Shirley confirmed her thoughts even more. Shirley shook her head cooperatively, wanting to hear what the shadow would say next.

"There's something precious about you, and I think someone will take it from you. If you destroy all these enemies, then congratulations, you will have a promising life. If they kill you, I think you'll know the outcome. Be careful, you could lose your life at any time. ”

The black shadow seemed to smile slightly strangely, and then Shirley saw him turn around and disappear into a black light again. The surrounding space also returned to normal. Siluvia continued to comfort Shirley, who was still thinking about what had just happened, which was simply too weird.

"Siluvia, me." Shirley was about to say what she had encountered but found that she couldn't say anything after opening her mouth for a long time, a strong sense of distortion made her feel like a fish in her throat, Siluvia thought Shirley was choking, and quickly patted her body to try to calm her down.

"Shirley, are you alright?" There was a worried look on Siluvia's little face, and Shirley just shook her head, trying to shake off the strange twist. It took a while for Shirley's expression to return to normal, and the strange sense of distortion gradually disappeared.

"It's okay, I'm just a little uncomfortable, let's go back."

"Uh-huh."

Shirley and Siluvia said goodbye to Gudri and then went back, and on this day Shirley felt physically and mentally exhausted, and she lay in bed weakly thinking about the events of the day. Obviously, based on what the dark shadow said, Shirley felt that someone was secretly harming her, and this person was in the shadows, which made Shirley feel very uncomfortable

Lying on the bed, Shirley only felt that her eyelids were getting heavier and heavier, and before she knew it, she had slowly fallen asleep. When she regained consciousness, she found herself on a huge platform. The platform has twelve scales like a clock, each of which appears to have a vague figure standing.

Standing in the middle of the platform was the black shadow in a black robe, Shirley looked around a little nervously, this feeling was like the scene of the protagonist in an anime being watched by a group of murderers, at this moment she is especially like the main character, this blurred figure is also like the god in that anime.

"Good, everybody's here. Good news for everyone, the blood of the god-king has been found. It's currently with our No. 12 newbie, reiterating our rules of the game. As long as you have the blood of the god-king and kill 11 other people, then you will be able to win, and the outcome of the loss is very simple, death! ”

The black shadow's simple words made all the figures seem to look at Shirley sitting on the ground on twelve scales, and this murderous gaze made Shirley feel a little creepy. The black shadow smiled, and he continued as if he had achieved his goal as if the murderous gazes of the crowd had been achieved.

"Don't let me down~~ Great traversers. I think you'll give me a perfect answer. Also, announce a rule, if on this day next year, this qiē is not over, then I'm sorry, all of you, you have to die! Hahaha! ”

The shadow seemed to be a little crazy, and when he said the last word, the slightest hint of trying to escape disappeared from everyone's minds. The eyes they looked at Shirley once again revealed a strong killing intent, but fortunately, they looked at Shirley the same as Shirley looked at them, and could only see a vague figure

When she woke up, it was dawn, and Shirley echoed the words of the black shadow in her mind. Especially those few words, great traversers, these words made her feel an invisible pressure. Obviously, the other 11 people also crossed over, but she didn't know which world they originally belonged to.

When Shirley contacted the Black Shadow, she thought of the mysterious red liquid she had obtained in the Graveyard earlier, and it was clear that this was the blood of the God King that the Black Shadow was talking about. And a series of things that happened before and after were also explained under the explanation of the black shadow, she was first brought into this world, and then she experienced this qiē.

(Have I been found by someone else?) )

When Shirley thought of this, she was shocked, and the cold sweat on her head kept pouring out. After thinking about it, Shirley felt that the mecha attack that happened yesterday was quite strange, and what she wanted to do now was to find the person who was hurting her in the shadows and get rid of him. But after thinking about it, Shirley still has no bottom in her heart.

"What's wrong, Shirley?"

"yes, are you feeling unwell?"

Siluvia and Vivien's voices came to Shirley's ears, and their words of concern woke Shirley from her musings. Shirley also buried these thoughts in her heart for the time being, and then shook her head and said with a smile.

"It's okay, I just miss my mother back home."

As she spoke, she got up from the bed and began to dress, and Shirley, who had been free from these for a while, briefly returned to her proper appearance.
