Kuaiwen: I earn a pension by breaking through the game

Chapter 167 Escape from the Horror Game (11)

After thinking about it for a while, I couldn't solve the problem, so I had to give it up temporarily.

As the eyes move downward, the long table in the center of the hall gradually comes into view. There are fragrant flowers on the table, with different heights and staggered patterns. They are placed just right according to the depth of color and the combination of varieties, which shows that a lot of ingenuity has been spent.

This castle is not only simple luxury, but also embodies the design efforts of top craftsmen. The hall fell silent for a while, and everyone was immersed in the artistic charm of the building. The warmth and brightness of the banquet hall relieved everyone's inner tension to a certain extent, allowing them to get a temporary respite.

It's a pity that the good times didn't last long. After a burst of sound in the air, new changes occurred in the originally peaceful night.

The sky was low and covered with dark clouds, as if a huge gray curtain enveloped the whole world. The wind began to howl, with a bit of coolness, blowing the leaves and making a rustling sound, which was a sign before the storm.

A bolt of lightning pierced the sky, like a silver snake dancing in the darkness, instantly lighting up the entire sky. Then, thunder roared, deafening, and it looked like it was going to rain heavily.

Jiang Qiucheng frowned. He didn't need to think about who was responsible for this extreme change in weather.

Heavy rain followed, and the raindrops were dense and powerful, hitting the windows with a crisp sound. The rainwater flowed down the windows, blurring the world outside the windows.

The expedition team members were also shocked by the sudden heavy rain. In such a violent storm, this place was the only place that was peaceful. It was destined to be difficult to leave tonight.

The pizza crust is carefully baked, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The fresh beef is skillfully sliced ​​and sprinkled on the pizza with various seasonal vegetables, making it colorful; the foie gras is carefully cooked, with a rich and silky texture. It melts in your mouth, exuding a rich buttery aroma; the tender and juicy beef is perfectly blended under the influence of red wine.

The senses we usually rely on cannot be used as the basis for action here. Who knows what is hidden behind this?
The beautiful girl may be a pink skull, the gorgeous castle may be in ruins, the delicious food may be rotten vegetables and rotten meat... In short, you need to be careful in everything.

The fragrant Spanish paella, the fresh and tender Turkish barbecue, and the unique flavor of Iberian ham
The meals in front of you are all carefully prepared with high-quality raw materials. Both in appearance and taste, they are of chef-level quality.

The vigorous desire is like a wild beast that breaks out of the cage at any time, and everyone present has abnormal and strange expressions.

Suddenly, the aroma of food filled the bright banquet hall, and everyone followed the smell and turned to look.

Almost out of instinctive desire, Jiang Qiucheng unconsciously made a clear swallowing sound after seeing the rich food.

"Guests, hurry up and take your seats and enjoy the delicious food with me."

Precisely because she is a taskmaster, she knows more clearly that this is just a game world, and everything she sees, hears, and even touches here is fake and is just created by the controller. phantom.

After realizing something was wrong, Jiang Qiucheng pinched herself hard in secret. The strong pain helped her regain her consciousness to a certain extent.

But everything in front of me was too concrete and confusing, and it was not easy to get out of it soberly.

The disappeared girl reappeared, with a careless smile still on her face, as if nothing just happened had ever happened.

Jiang Qiucheng calmly distanced himself and retreated to the farthest corner.

After the girl noticed her actions, she did not immediately express her position. Instead, she walked to the innermost side of the long table, where the owner was, stretched out her hands to fit the curves of her body, and smoothed the folds of her skirt. Sit down. Then he picked up the knife and fork placed beside the dinner plate and began to eat elegantly.

Compared to her complacency, the expressions of the people around her were not very good-looking. The scarlet inside of the beef cut open by knives and forks reminded them of the killed team member involuntarily.

The fear and annoyance in their hearts made them regain some consciousness, and their eyes when looking at the girl were full of fear.

As if remembering something important, a young expedition member took two steps forward, pointed excitedly in the direction of Jiang Qiucheng and asked.

"You said that if you want to enter this castle and gain temporary shelter, you need to sacrifice a team member as a ticket. We have complied with your request."

"But why does this person get the same reward as us without paying any price? It's not fair!"

The expedition team member looked at Jiang Qiucheng with hatred. In his opinion, Jiang Qiucheng was able to get in because he took advantage of a loophole. He would not allow such a thing to happen. Why should they suffer hardship in the front while this person picks up the slack in the back?

Following his questioning, the rest of the people also looked over. Looking at the angry eyes of the other party, Jiang Qiucheng's originally relaxed body tensed up again, taking on a defensive posture.

Hearing this, the girl smiled coquettishly and held her chin with one hand as if watching the fun.

"She has paid the price."

The sentence without beginning or end left everyone scratching their heads. Only Jiang Qiucheng felt cold all over and understood the meaning behind the girl's words.

The expedition team members gained temporary safety by killing their companions in groups. Bloody hands and a precarious sense of trust were their tickets.

And Jiang Qiucheng, as a latecomer, seemed to have obtained the same fruits of victory as others effortlessly, but invisibly, he got the jealousy of others and stood on the opposite side of them.

The price Jiang Qiucheng paid was the loss of allies and the risk of being targeted. It can be said that now she not only has to face the dangers and troubles caused by girls from time to time, but also has to be careful of the exclusion and backstabbing of members of the expedition team.

The girl actually didn't do anything, but she had unknowingly pushed Jiang Qiucheng into a dilemma. The most important thing was that even if she tried to defend and make amends, the established facts were always naked in front of her. It makes people powerless to change.

Jiang Qiucheng knew that no matter what she said now, it would not have any substantive effect. People's hearts were always the most difficult to conquer. Once an idea was generated, it would be extremely difficult to change it later, so she simply stopped defending herself. .

"Pay? What did you pay?"

"I saw that she was standing exactly where she was, with neither arms nor legs missing, not even a hair missing. I didn't see that she had lost anything, unlike us, from the beginning to now, Two team members have died one after another."

"That's it, why can she be so relaxed? It's really speechless!"

……

The more dissatisfied they were, the more obvious the smile on the girl's face became.
