Chapter 265 Black Rose's Dilemma
When Wei Yang and Chen Feng entered the study.
Chen Feng subconsciously stopped in his tracks, his gaze fixed on the puppet woman on his left.
She stood tall and straight, wearing a long velvet dress embroidered with dark rose patterns, the hem of which fell to her ankles and swayed gently in the faint airflow in the study.
Wei Yang, however, seemed to have known the layout of the place all along. She walked directly to the puppet woman on the left, handed over the letter she had obtained from the servant of the No. 5 white porcelain puppet, and bowed in greeting.
"Black Rose is the chief of life and death in Dark City, while Red Rose and White Rose are the chiefs of treasure and technology, respectively."
"There are only three people here, shouldn't there be four tasks?" Chen Feng asked.
"The last one isn't here."
Just then, the perfect doll named Black Rose in front of Wei Yang opened its eyes, shattering the deathly silence of the entire study.
Black Rose's warm eyes were like two pools of ink submerged in a cold abyss, with very faint dark rose-colored patterns at the corners of her eyes.
The way he looked at Weiyang, however, carried the aloofness of someone in a superior position.
As Black Rose Manager awoke, the stagnant candlelight in the two fireplaces in the study suddenly burst into golden flames, and dense rose patterns began to appear on the four walls, filling the air with a cool rose fragrance.
The ancient books on the bookshelf moved even without wind, their pages rustling and turning.
At this moment, Chen Feng could clearly sense that the Red Rose supervisor in front of him possessed a terrifying pressure that was enough to defeat him. Her calm expression was more like that of a powerful figure in the Dark City who held the power of life and death, an indifference etched into his very bones.
Just then, Wei Yang bowed even lower and became even more respectful.
Hei Mei lowered her eyes, her pale, almost transparent fingertips gently lifting.
Her fingertips seemed devoid of the texture of a living person's skin, yet the moment they lightly touched the letter, it floated up automatically, the seal silently dissolving, and the letter paper slowly unfurling.
Without turning the page or pausing to read, Hei Mei merely glanced at the open letter, and lines of fine, dark gold patterns lit up on the paper before returning to silence.
"I understand the message from the fifth."
Black Rose's voice was clear and crisp, like ice beads falling on cold jade.
However, at this moment, her gaze passed over Wei Yang and landed on Chen Feng, who remained standing in the same spot.
Chen Feng frowned. Just one glance from Hei Mei made him feel as if all his past, hidden schemes, and even the secrets deep within his soul were laid bare before him, from his flesh to his soul.
"Is this your friend?" Black Rose's lips curled into a faint smile.
However, the expression that appeared on the doll's face was even more terrifying to Chen Feng than the complete stillness.
Wei Yang immediately met that gaze and said, "Respected Black Rose Manager, that is my contractor."
"Interesting. A peak Earth Rank expert is only qualified to guard the main city gate in Dark City." Black Rose smiled faintly.
Dark City?
Hearing Black Rose's words, Chen Feng felt even more strongly that the Black Rose in front of him was fundamentally different from the dolls he had seen before, and that Dark City seemed to have something else in mind!
......
Soon, the emblems representing the four Rose Messengers appeared out of thin air before Chen Feng and Wei Yang...
They were four badges that were entirely black, with black roses engraved in the center or along the edges. The edges of the badges were shimmering with different colors of light, some as red as burning flames, some as white as jade, and some as blue as flowing water.
Above the three badges.
The fourth badge, however, was made of almost transparent glass, with only a faint, almost invisible red rose phantom in the center. It didn't even have half the pressure or aura of the badge below it, like a product of a stream of consciousness.
However, that glass badge somehow overshadowed the other three badges, making even the occasional sound of turning pages in the study instantly quiet down.
"Black Rose Supervisor, I'll choose Red Rose's task first."
Did I ask you?
Black Rose's voice remained cold, yet carried an undeniable air of authority.
The moment the words fell, Wei Yang felt as if a thousand-pound boulder had been placed on her shoulders, and cold sweat instantly seeped from her forehead, but she gritted her teeth and refused to straighten up even an inch.
Her gaze fell on Chen Feng again, and the dark rose pattern at the corner of her eye shone with a faint light as she looked at him.
"Number Five said in the letter that you are a once-in-a-century genius of the Dark God Clan... but now that I've met you, I find your contractor more interesting..."
Seeing that Hei Mei had already said all that,
Chen Feng gave a cold laugh and decisively stated his judgment.
"If I'm not mistaken, you're not a puppet of the manor either."
The moment the words left his mouth, the entire study fell into a deathly silence.
The once vibrant golden candle flame suddenly shrank inward, shrinking into two tiny sparks the size of pinheads, completely extinguishing its light.
The swirling rose motifs on the four walls froze instantly, and the originally crisp, cool rose scent in the air suddenly became piercing, like countless fine needles stabbing into the lungs with each breath. Even the pages of a book swirling in mid-air stopped abruptly, hanging there motionless.
Wei Yang's face turned pale instantly, and cold sweat slid down her jawline, as if someone had held her life in someone else's grasp.
Black Rose kept her eyes downcast, her pale, translucent fingertips still resting on the letter, but the dark rose-colored lines at the corners of her eyes gradually brightened, as if dark flames were slowly flowing within them.
The faint smile on her face did not fade; instead, it deepened little by little.
A bottomless chill surged within his once gentle, dark eyes.
"Oh?"
As the last note rose slightly, countless ancient books placed on the bookshelf snapped shut with a "snap," falling neatly back onto the shelf without even the slightest tilt.
Hei Mei raised her hand, but not towards Wei Yang. Instead, she gestured for Chen Feng, who was standing still, to come over.
The next moment, Chen Feng felt an overwhelming pressure instantly take control of his body, pulling him step by step toward Manager Hei Mei, but he was powerless to resist!
"Originally, I didn't need to be here in person, but someone told me you guys are interesting, so I came to check it out," Hei Mei said calmly, her fair hand brushing against Chen Feng's cheek.
The situation before them seemed to be beyond their expectations...
Wei Yang gritted her teeth and immediately released the peak Earth Rank pressure contained within her body, instantly breaking free from the mountain-like control force exerted by Hei Mei.
However, just as Wei Yang was about to speak...
Hei Mei's left hand suddenly opened, instantly regaining control of Wei Yang and pressing her hard against the study wall. Countless rose vines instantly enveloped Wei Yang completely.
"Wei Yang!!" Chen Feng was shocked and was about to use his power to help Wei Yang.
However, before Chen Feng could take any action...
The things before my eyes suddenly distorted and blurred; the Black Rose Supervisor, the swirling pages of the book, and the rose totem covering the wall all turned into swaying phantoms.
The physical body returns, but the soul remains.
The moment the cold voice fell, a piercing tearing sensation suddenly exploded from Chen Feng's sea of consciousness, leaving only Hei Mei's lingering words echoing in Chen Feng's ears.
......
The feeling of weightlessness was fleeting.
Chen Feng suddenly opened his eyes, his back already soaked with cold sweat.
And right in front of them were the Red Fox members, still fast asleep!
