Kuaiwen: I earn a pension by breaking through the game

Chapter 177 Escape from the Horror Game (21)

As she muttered dissatisfiedly, a touch of sadness appeared on her face, like a little girl who really longed for praise from others. Sensing her dissatisfaction, the members of the expedition team immediately spoke tremblingly.

"The painting is very good. Although I can't see it, I know without thinking that this will be the greatest picture in the world!"

After hearing this answer, Elena did not immediately express her position, and the atmosphere fell into a brief silence, making it impossible to guess her happiness and anger.

Others may not want to give up this good opportunity to express themselves, so they quickly climbed a few steps forward and echoed flatteringly.

"This great painting is simply a culmination of classical art and modern art! There is no one before or since, and no contemporary painter can compare with you."

The hollowed eye sockets were filled with thick blood, like a shaking red wine glass, which would spill over accidentally. These people raised their heads, hoping to please Elena.

Obviously, their speculation failed.

What Elena hates deeply is the hypocrisy and affectation on the surface, how she can say those words without any burden even though she can't see anything. These people are not only blind in their eyes, but also blind in their hearts. It seems that this is often the case in the real world, saying one thing with their mouths and thinking another in their hearts.

What's more, Elina knew very well that the compliments these people gave her would turn into curses on her in their hearts.

"Oh? Is that really what you think?"

The few people who spoke immediately nodded like garlic, and any delay would be a sign of disrespect for themselves.

"Then let me hear your true words."

As soon as Elena finished speaking, the man started talking to himself uncontrollably.

"Haha, ask a blind man to evaluate a painting. A person with no faults can't do this. How can a person with a black heart and lungs paint a beautiful picture?"

"Madman, a complete madman. He doesn't have a good time here, and he drags us into the water together."

“Poor bitch%￥&&(@%*)……)”

After a few words of rant, what followed was a long string of swear words that would not pass muster.

There was no unhappy expression on Elina's face. On the contrary, her smile became bigger and bigger.

The man obviously did not expect that his true feelings would be exposed in this way. He instinctively wanted to reach out and cover his mouth, trying to contain the situation that was out of control like a wild horse running loose. However, the situation has evolved to this point, how can he be allowed to reverse it easily?

Elena was keenly aware of his intentions. With a quick movement, there was a crisp sound. His hands had been cleverly twisted and lost their support. They hung weakly on both sides of his body and could no longer move.

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha--"

"I'm so sorry. I accidentally heard your true words."

"You are right. I am indeed a complete lunatic. Let me think about how to reward you?" Elina sat on the main seat, her hands elegantly crossed on her chest, her eyes as sharp as ice knives, revealing The air seems to pierce a person's heart. She looked down condescendingly at the man who collapsed on the ground. The other man shrank, his clothes soaked with sweat, like a dead leaf beaten by frost, and he did not dare to make any more movement.

The entire hall fell into deathly silence, with only Elena's cold eyes intertwined with the faint breathing of the person who collapsed on the ground. The air seemed to be frozen, full of tension and oppression. There was no trace of pity in Elena's eyes, only endless indifference.

"Since you think my painting is good, then do your best to add more color to it."

Under Elina's control, the people who had collapsed on the ground were slowly floated up by the invisible pull. Then, they were pushed to the wall by a powerful force and embedded in it. Their original living flesh turned into lifelike portraits like oil paintings, and their expressions still retained the fear of life.

These portraits are very different from the classical style of the castle, adding an eerie and eerie atmosphere to the castle. Elena seemed quite satisfied with this, walking leisurely in front of the mural, admiring her masterpiece. As the sounds of wailing and moaning gradually disappeared, silence returned to the interior of the castle.

Apart from her, the only person left in the hall now was Jiang Qiucheng. Elina turned around and slowly approached Jiang Qiucheng's direction.

"It's finally quiet. I've driven away all the annoying bugs. There are no more people to disturb us. We can have a good chat."

"By the way, I haven't had time to ask your name yet. Exchanging names is a basic courtesy. It's not a good idea to neglect it."

Jiang Qiucheng's eyes always glanced at the ruby ​​necklace around Elina's neck unconsciously. Because he was afraid that the other party would find out the clues, he quickly looked away, lowered his head and whispered.

"My name is Jiang Qiucheng."

Elena called out several times in a low voice, as if to remember the name firmly.

"You are very smart. I know that you have been secretly observing me and guessing my thoughts based on my attitude towards those bed bugs."

"I have to say that this has some effect. You don't look as annoying as they do."

"You must be feeling very anxious now, right? You're afraid that I'll attack you the next second and make you end up like them."

Jiang Qiucheng didn't speak, because she knew that as long as Elina wanted, she could probe into her inner thoughts at any time. No matter how much she disguised and concealed, she would become vulnerable in front of the other party's ability.

Elena seemed a little thirsty. She walked to the table and poured herself a glass of red wine gracefully. The deep red liquid flowed on the tip of her tongue, bringing a strong sense of satisfaction. She couldn't help but sigh softly and spoke slowly.

"The long years have caused a lot of lapses in my memory. In my impression, I have always lived in this manor."

"At first, my life track was very simple. I always said something and did something repeatedly. Different people came and went, and I was tired of it."

"Until one day, I gained the ability to control this space, and life became a lot more interesting."

Elina seemed to have fallen into some kind of meditation, and her vague memory made her feel even more painful. When Jiang Qiucheng saw this scene, he did not act rashly or speak.

It seems that this should be an ordinary game world, and Elina, as an important character in this game, runs through the entire main plot. But later, for some unknown reason, it took on a dark undertone and turned into a horror game.

Seeing Elina's focused expression as she was lost in memories, Jiang Qiucheng suddenly felt an impulse in his heart. He might as well take advantage of it now...
