"Wait!" The witch suddenly stopped Mo Xiaoyao, who was about to leave, "Can you do me a favor?" ”

Side quests?

Mo Xiaoyao turned around, of course she understood what this meant, but considering that this was a risk with her life, she didn't agree to it.

"What do you say first, whether there is any danger, what is the reward, and then I will decide whether to help or not."

The witch stopped pretending, and said sarcastically: "Aren't all human beings often boasting that they are philanthropist? It's really rare for you to do this. ”

Mo Xiaoyao didn't even bother to argue, turned around and left.

Seeing that Mo Xiaoyao didn't respond, the witch was also anxious, and said her needs in a hoarse voice: "Help me find the lost child, and the reward is my divination deck." Can't find you and there's nothing to lose. By the name of the Lord of Hades, what I say is true! ”

"Who is the Lord of Hades?"

"The supreme master who rules countless spaces." The witch's face flashed with reverence and fear for a moment, and then she said, "I can't say more, it's up to you to choose, little girl." ”

There was no loss of side quests, Mo Xiaoyao was still very willing to do them, so she nodded and took the witch's commission.

Then, a few lines popped up in front of her eyes, proving from the system's point of view that the witch was not lying.

Sideline: Witch's Mandate

Contents: Looking for the witch's missing child, who is in this circus and never returns.

Reward: Witch's Divination Card x1 set

Failure Penalty: None

Without waiting for Mo Xiaoyao to leave again, the witch's fingers swept across the table, put away the turntable, and left only the tarot deck: "The little game has been played, I'll help you divination." ”

Mo Xiaoyao thought back for a moment and remembered that before the game started, the witch did say something similar. It seems that this divination is also one of the spinning wheel rewards, and since so, she will see what flowers she can take.

A total of five tarot cards, which were placed on the table by the witch in turn, are:

- Orthostatic chariots

- The Righteous Fool

- The Queen

- Priestess on the throne

- Reverse Magician

The witch looked at the five cards in front of her, her face showed a strange look, and then she said something specious, how Mo Xiaoyao sounded like a familiar routine on the street.

"Keeping the order of these five cards in mind will help you in the future."

With this sentence as a conclusion, the witch neatly put away the deck as if she had completed the task, summoned the crystal ball to the square table again, and began to observe the table again, completely ignoring Mo Xiaoyao.

Mo Xiaoyao didn't mind, and after silently reciting the card in his heart, he left the tent, and subconsciously looked up at the sky and saw that the minute hand of the miserable white clock had already gone more than half a circle.

07：35:21

Unconsciously, Mo Xiaoyao spent more than 30 minutes in this tent, although it was nothing compared to the 15-hour time limit, but considering that she didn't have a badge now, she still couldn't waste it casually.

Walking out along the path he came from, Mo Xiaoyao felt that the things hanging in the forest seemed to be different from before, no longer some strange-shaped tarot characters, but instead of rusty and empty huge bird cages.

Each balustrade of the birdcage is the thickness of an adult's thumb, and every few centimeters, it is equipped with two short barbs, one inward and one outward. If you look closely, you can see that there is a dark brown stain on the tip of the barb, which is not recognizable, but it is easy to think of blood.

Now the cage doors are all open, but Mo Xiaoyao has no doubt that this was once closed, and there may be monsters, NPCs, or ...... The game failed and failed to leave the dungeon of the humans.

Mo Xiaoyao was sure that she didn't want to stay here, so she quickened her pace and walked out of the forest along the path, and then walked down the stone brick road diagonally down to the lively circus.

From the slope just now, the atmosphere of the circus is very lively, like any normal circus station. However, when she got closer, Mo Xiaoyao realized that it was not as lively as she thought, but it was weird everywhere.

Those tourist NPCs, when she looked at it from the slope, she could only see large and small shadows, thinking that it was because of the distance and light, and she didn't pay attention to it.

Now that she walked among these NPCs, she realized that they were really shadows, tall, short, fat and thin, men, women and children, and even their joys and sorrows - but they were still just shadows.

It's not the kind of black, it's a gray tone as the main body, a more illusory shadow. If I have to describe it, it's like the shadow customers who suddenly appear in each store when the lights are on in "Spirited Away".

The NPCs didn't care about Mo Xiaoyao, and Mo Xiaoyao also pretended not to care about them, following the guidance of the map in her hand, shuttling among the shadows, heading towards the next destination she was optimistic about.

"You! Yes, that's you! Hold it! ”

Mo Xiaoyao turned around vigilantly, and looked at a bloated young man running towards her panting, with a round face greasy and greasy, which made people uncomfortable to look at.

Seeing the fat man approaching, Mo Xiaoyao took two steps back, took out his high heels from his carry-on bag, and was ready to do it at any time.

The fat man didn't seem to see Mo Xiaoyao's vigilance, and still rushed forward vigorously, with an eager expression like a person who had been hungry for three days saw a piece of human-shaped barbecue.

Seeing that the fat man was getting closer and closer, Mo Xiaoyao estimated in his heart that after he almost entered the attack range, his left leg supported his toes and crushed the ground, his waist sideways, and his right leg drew a semicircle in the air, which happened to kick the fat man's cheekbones.

Since that incident, Mo Xiaoyao has gone to learn taekwondo, fantasizing that one day in the future, when the pair of scumbags and are released from prison, they will be sent to the hospital.

Seeing Mo Xiaoyao kicking over, the fat man was not angry but happy, but stretched out his thick hand and touched the other party's ankle, and then fell to the ground with a successful smile.

"Hey...... Touched, touched...... Hey...... Hey hey ......"

Mo Xiaoyao's heart was tired for a while, and after the familiar vertigo, the killing intent that had been well controlled was completely stimulated. She walked over with a gloomy face, looked at the fat man condescendingly, and was about to kick it again between his two strands, but suddenly found that she couldn't do it at all.

"Don't bother, you can't hurt me until it's over." The fat man gasped and sat up, raised his arm and wiped the oil and sweat on his face with his sleeve, and then showed an almost shy smile to Mo Xiaoyao, "If you fall under my contract curse, you have to listen to me." ”

Mo Xiaoyao looked at the fat man with empty eyes, and seeing that he couldn't kick him, he tilted his head and thought about it, squatted down and raised the high heels in his hand, and smashed them down according to the man's unique organs.

Even though he knew that the other party couldn't hurt him, the fat man still flinched, and the murderous aura on this girl's body was too strong, and he began to doubt whether he could survive after the contract ended.

"You, don't look at me like that, I can't help it." The fat man squirmed and stood up, with a flattering smile on his round face, "Don't worry, there will be nothing, and there are benefits to completing the contract." ”

Mo Xiaoyao still tilted her head to look at him, her empty eyes gradually regained a little vitality, she didn't speak, just squatted there quietly, still holding the pair of goblin repaired high heels in her hands.

The fat man felt that the pressure on his body was suddenly much less, and he looked at the time in the sky anxiously, and pointed to the road on Mo Xiaoyao's left: "Big sister, I know I'm not doing it right, but I can't help it—let's talk about it while walking?" If the contract fails, you won't be good. ”

Mo Xiaoyao stood up, his face gloomy, and walked side by side with the fat man.

"It's 7:42 now, and at 8 o'clock you join a game with me, as long as you lose, the system will pay you when it's over, and the contract will be over, and then you can beat me as much as you want."

The fat man quickly said his appeal, and then handed Mo Xiaoyao a rolled up piece of parchment with a bow tied with a red ribbon.

Mo Xiaoyao opened the contract and read the content word by word, to the effect that she was asked to participate in a confrontation game with Zhou Jun as an employee, and asked her to lose.

The price of losing, as it is also written in the contract, is harmless to her, only the loss of 3 tokens. But the price of breaking the contract is life.

As long as Mo Xiaoyao fulfills the contract, makes the game he participated in end normally, and Zhou Jun does not die, he can get 7 tokens as a reward.

From Mo Xiaoyao's unprofessional point of view, there are no linguistic traps in this contract, and what has been certified by the system is naturally guaranteed in the dark, which is far more effective than the contract on the earth.

The fat man, that is, Zhou Jun, took Mo Xiaoyao to the game project he had already explored, chattering and complaining, his tone was full of grievances and dissatisfaction: "I can't help it, who knew that everyone's refresh point would be so far away, this circus is very big, seeing that the time is coming, I really can't find anyone else, otherwise I wouldn't rashly make a move on such a beautiful girl as you, this will eliminate the possibility of continued development in the future, right?" Pity me for being 28 years old and not having a girlfriend yet......"

Mo Xiaoyao ignored his nonsense, endured the discomfort in his heart, and forced himself to speak: "Show me your contract curse skill." ”

Zhou Jun twisted his hands, reluctant to speak: "...... Skills, how can I show you, or I'll read it to you word by word? ”

Mo Xiaoyao stopped, her own skills had the option of "visible to people", so she naturally didn't believe the fat man's words.

"You can bet that I have the skills to break your contract curse." After thinking about it, Mo Xiaoyao added, "You can also bet on whether I will kill you after the game is over." ”

Mo Xiaoyao asked the fat man to gamble, she was actually gambling herself, betting on whether the fat man would regard the confidentiality of his skills as more important than his life.

She felt that she had a good chance of winning. Tomb Hunter East White
