Chapter 401 - Death Game?



Chapter 401 – Death Game?

Everyone who qualified to enter this place was naturally talented. After the initial confusion, their minds turned quickly and gradually figured out what Hongyue said. 

The first stage she mentioned should be the earlier battle with a profound beast. They had defeated their opponents and arrived here. As for those who were missing, they were likely to be dead by now.

Wang Jue looked at Hongyue for a while and took a step forward, clasping his fists and said politely. "May I ask a question, Senior?" 

Hongyue turned to Wang Jue, and a dissatisfied expression appeared on her face. She pouted angrily. "Senior? Do I look that old?"

Wang Jue was startled for a moment and hurriedly shook his head. "No, no. Senior…erm…" He was at a loss as he didn't know how to call her. Little Sister? He didn't dare to call her that.

"Princess. Call me Princess." Hongyue said while crossing her arms before her chest. Her body exuded a lofty aura, making people feel inferior when looking at her.

Wang Jue quickly corrected his word. "Princess Hongyue, may I know what's the reward if we pass all the stages?"

Hongyue squinted her eyes, and a playful smile appeared on her lips. "You seem confident?"

Wang Jue replied confidently. "Among everyone here, I am certainly the best." 

As he spoke, he glanced at Yun Lintian provocatively. He believed he did a better job than Yun Lintian as the latter had suffered an injury while he didn't.

Although Wang Jue's arrogant words made everyone dissatisfied, they didn't utter a sound. After all, no one was stupid enough to offend a young master of the Wang clan.

Hearing this, Hongyue curled her lips and said disdainfully. "You? The best? Do you know that the strength of the profound beast you had encountered earlier was adjusted according to your strength? If you are good, the profound beast would be slightly better than you. But if you are extremely powerful, your opponent would even be two or three times more powerful than you."

Hongyue sneered and continued. "You are the third to arrive here yet still have the audacity to say you are the best? How arrogant."

Wang Jue's face instantly flushed red in shame. He said that to provoke Yun Lintian and attract Hongyue's attention. He didn't expect Hongyue to state out mercilessly like this.

Though he was furious, he didn't dare to refute Hongyue in the slightest. He hurriedly bowed his head and said. "This junior has been taught."

Hongyue let out a contemptuous chuckle and turned her head toward Yun Lintian. "Since you are the first one to pass the first stage, I shall grant you a reward. Tell me, what do you want?"

Yun Lintian, who had been observing Hongyue for all this time, thought for a moment and asked. "What kind of a reward can you give me?" His voice was calm, neither polite nor disrespectful, as if he talked with a person in the same generation.

As if the entire world had completely solidified, absolute silence reigned. Everyone on the scene looked at Yun Lintian in astonishment. They didn't know if there was a hole in his brain or he was simply ignorant. The person in front of you was clearly the creator of this mythical realm, yet what was that tone? 

Surprisingly, Hongyue didn't mind at all. She replied with a smile. "I can give you anything… Of course, including myself."

This time everyone turned to look at Hongyue in shock, and the men glared enviously at Yun Lintian. Hongyue might look young, but her beauty wasn't less at all. In terms of her face alone, she would become the center of attention wherever she went.

These pedophiles. Can you stop looking like that? The author still wants to write further, alright? Yun Lintian glanced at these men and shook his head slightly.

Yun Lintian's complexion did not change in the slightest while facing Hongyue's tease. He responded. "I want a high-quality lifeforce treasure."

Yun Lintian's answer was out of everyone's expectation. They thought he would either ask for the supreme treasure in this place or leave him out of the competition.

Hongyue's brows raised slightly. She stared at Yun Lintian for a while and said. "Very well. Take this." 

As she flicked her wrist, a strange green leaf immediately shot toward Yun Lintian, making him urgently catch it.

The moment his hand touched the green leaf, Yun Lintian could feel a tremendous lifeforce flow into his body, causing him to startle for a moment before quickly putting it away. He would take a good look at it later.

Everything happened too fast. The crowd hadn't yet taken a clear picture of the object, but Yun Lintian had already put it away. They were curious what was the treasure he got.

"It's time now. Since no one wants to leave your last word, I shall take all of you to the next stage." Hongyue suddenly said. 

Her voice immediately brought everyone's attention back to her. Their expression gradually turned serious, waiting for Hongyue's following words.

"The second stage is simple. Twenty people among you will be assigned as werewolves, ten people as a doctor, and the rest will be a villager. The werewolf will have to kill everyone without getting caught. Meanwhile, the doctor can save anyone once a day. As for the villager, well, all of you can only run and wait until the morning comes." Hongyue explained playfully.

As her voice fell, everyone immediately looked at each other solemnly. What kind of this death game were they about to face? Would they really be dead if they got killed by the werewolf?

Hongyue continued. "Every night, the werewolf's strength will increase tremendously. You can choose to hunt people at that time or do nothing until dawn. You only need to remember that you can't expose your identity to anyone, even if the other party is a werewolf like you. Hehe, don't blame me for not reminding you this later."

"Every morning, everyone will be summoned to this place. At that time, all of you can discuss who you think are the werewolves. Suppose someone is accused, and the accusation is supported by a second person.. In that case, the accused person will get a full minute to defend yourself, and then it's put up to a vote to decide the accused person's fate."
