Who invited the witch into the eerie game?

Chapter 166 Thorsem is watching you!

"Tan Qi, you're the captain now!"

Alice patted Tan Qi on the shoulder: "Everyone has high hopes for you!"

Tan Qi blinked a few times, looked at Alice, then at Sui Yi and Su Xiaoshuang, and nodded solemnly.

With so many big shots around, she was going all out.

There's nothing to be afraid of anymore.

But how do we get across?

"Should I go prepare the aircraft?"

Tan Qi asked tentatively.

Don't let her status as captain fool you; she's nothing special.

"Too slow."

Sakura said, "I'll do it."

She opened her hand, and five transparent cards appeared in her palm. The images on the cards were a pair of wings, and the cards flew to each person.

"These are flight wings specially designed for novice magical girls. You can use them simply by injecting your power into them."

"Magical girls have this kind of equipment?"

Wizard Warren stared at the cards in front of him, utterly astonished.

Without a second thought, he used the transparent card, and a pair of gray wings immediately appeared behind him.

Although it's not very pretty, it flies extremely fast.

"What amazing wings."

Warren praised it, saying, "Not only is it fast, but it also consumes very little energy."

The Light Swordswoman Gina Viv immediately used a transparent card, and a pair of orange wings appeared behind her.

She took a test flight, appeared in the distance in the blink of an eye, slayed a large number of bizarre monsters with a single sword strike, and then returned in an instant, her face beaming with excitement: "I feel like I've become an angel."

"Thank you, but I don't need it."

Sui Yi said lazily.

She pulled the wand in her hand left and right like a slender stalk, and the wand instantly turned into a magic staff.

It's very stable when you sit on one side.

Alice glanced at the transparent card, then at her other teammates, and immediately took flight: "Thank you, I can fly."

ha?

Is it reasonable for brave warriors to be able to fly?

Tan Qi was shocked as she watched Alice fly away.

However, considering that bizarre games have already appeared, there's nothing unreasonable about it.

Now, only she and Su Xiaoshuang haven't used the transparent cards.

Others may not know Sakura's identity.

But she knew.

A gift from a mysterious god; if you use it, you won't even know how you died.

Sometimes death is nothing; what's truly terrifying is when someone is controlled and doesn't even realize it—that's the worst thing ever.

Because this could very likely harm your family, friends, and colleagues.

A similar strange occurrence happened in a certain neighborhood in Japan.

Those infected are completely unaware that they have been infected until they wake up and find themselves surrounded by the remains of their wives, children, and parents.

I can't even imagine the terrifying hellish scene.

Even more terrifying.

Even if they commit suicide, it won't make a difference.

Because after committing suicide, the bizarre monster that was the source will continue to parasitize nearby people and continue to slaughter them.

The destruction caused by ordinary, bizarre parasitic control is this terrifying.

How terrifying must a mysterious god be?

Tan Qi looked helplessly at the transparent card in front of her and could only look to Su Xiaoshuang for help.

Su Xiaoshuang didn't have many taboos.

She took all the transparent cards, including her own and Tan Qi's.

A barely perceptible purifying light flashed across the two transparent cards, which did not spontaneously combust.

"The cards are fine."

Su Xiaoshuang handed one of the cards to Tan Qi.

The other one was used directly, and it transformed into pale golden wings of light behind her, shining brilliantly.

Upon seeing the pale golden wings, Yingke's expression changed slightly.

She remembered Su Feng's golden wings.

They truly are sisters.

Furthermore, Su Xiaoshuang could clearly transform into a magical girl, and even if she didn't transform, she could still fly, so she insisted on using the Wing Card, which Yingke couldn't quite understand.

However, recalling the fleeting aura of light magic that had just passed by, Yingke guessed what Su Xiaoshuang had just done.

It's highly likely that a light-based magic purification card was used.

It's so heartbreaking that they don't trust her like this.

Sakura has already made up her mind. She will enter the other world later, and run away as soon as she achieves her goal.

Based on her understanding of Su Xiaoshuang and Su Feng, she knew that the two sisters were the same kind of people and would definitely attack her without any scruples.

Unfortunately, she couldn't beat any of them.

So annoying~

Tan Qi took the transparent card from Su Xiaoshuang and used it immediately.

Suddenly, a pair of red wings appeared behind her.

Faint flashes of electricity flickered between the wings.

"Are these wings from a legend, or a gift from Feng hope?" Alice suddenly asked.

The space fell silent instantly.

"This is boring. Don't you guys play games or watch anime?" Alice said. "Never mind, let's go."

"Okay, let's go."

Tan Qi said.

After reporting to Bureau 725, the group flew towards the World Passage.

Su Xiaoshuang flapped her light wings and flew at a moderate speed.

The strange monsters blocking the way were mostly taken down by other people.

Occasionally, she would make a move, throwing a few ordinary red fireballs to smash the strange monster to the ground, whether it was dead or alive was unknown.

However, Sakura seemed a little anxious. As she scattered a few cherry blossom petals, the strange monsters in front of her exploded one after another.

This scene surprised Alice, Warren, and Gina Viv.

Sakura's strength seems a bit too great.

Three minutes later, the team arrived at the World Passage.

From a distance, the World Passage appears very small, probably only the size of a cave.

However, it wasn't until we flew to the World Passage that we realized just how vast it truly was.

From their perspective, it is at least several hundred meters high and over a hundred meters wide.

Standing in front of the passageway, they felt very small.

"Since we're already here, let's come in!"

Tan Qi looked at the world passage in front of her, took a deep breath, and said.

They flew into the World Passage, as if entering an extremely wondrous space.

This place was neither like a passageway nor like a starry sky, and the team moved quickly forward inside.

During this time, some strange monsters tried to approach, but they were all instantly killed by Sakura.

Given Yingke's performance, Su Xiaoshuang even wanted to applaud.

Suddenly, the scenery changed.

They have crossed the world's passage.

At the same time, Su Xiaoshuang noticed that her gaming terminal had lit up.

?

No, she didn't enter the eerie game this time.

Looking at the content displayed on the game terminal, Su Xiaoshuang breathed a sigh of relief.

The above doesn't mean she entered the eerie game; it's just that it has a built-in function to detect eerie games.

"Welcome to the infested area: Solstheim Abyss Outpost, Skinning Sanctuary."

"The Skinning Sanctuary was the first outpost and testing ground established by the Eye of the Veil on the side of the Thorsham Abyss."

"This is where the abyssal energy most violently erodes the rules of reality, filled with distorted physical laws, conceptual pollution, and loyal guardians."

[General Rules for the Solstice Outpost]

Regional characteristics:

Erosion of rules: The stable laws of the present world, such as fixed gravity, linear time, and conservation of energy, are extremely fragile here.

Conceptual pollution: Specific thoughts, emotions, and knowledge can manifest as environmental hazards or physical entities. Please think carefully.

Flesh and Blood Workshop: Large amounts of biomass are transformed by abyssal energy to form living structures, traps, and servants.

1. A disordered gravity field exists within the area: the direction and magnitude of gravity change randomly, and the area resets every 10-30 minutes. Please note that walls and ceilings may become the new floor surface.

2. Fragmented time flow within the area: The time flow rate is inconsistent in different small areas. One hour may pass in one room, but only one minute may pass in an adjacent corridor, which may cause teammates to get separated, skill cooldowns to be disordered, and the effects of medicine to be disordered.

3. Cognition is reality pollution. Intense and persistent fear attracts fear demons, which are invisible and feed on and amplify fear.

4. Excessive attempts at rational analysis can create logically paradoxical entities in the surrounding environment, such as a perpetual motion machine gear set.

Indescribable geometric shapes, etc., will indiscriminately attack thinkers once they appear.

5. A firm faith and conviction will be as conspicuous as a lighthouse, attracting doctrinal erasers to come and correct their doctrines. Doctrinal erasers are extremely dangerous.

6. Rationality Erosion: Looking directly at the creations of the abyss or being in a distorted environment for a long time will continuously reduce sanity.

7. If one's rationality is too low, one will begin to passively accept the whispers of Sothem, experience hallucinations that are beneficial to the evil god organization, and even temporarily gain the power of the abyss but accelerate the mutation.

8. Flesh and blood assimilation: After being injured, if the wound comes into contact with the air or objects in the area, it may begin to become abyssal, such as growing alien tissues or undergoing sensory mutations.

If this occurs, please use methods such as Order Potion, high temperature, and Holy Light to purify and suppress it in a timely manner.

9. Energy Disorder: The flow of conventional energy, such as magic, internal energy, and psychic energy, is unstable. Spellcasting may fail, backfire, or produce unpredictable distorted effects.

For example, a fireball spell might turn into a slowly spreading cloud of putrefactive spores.

10. Taboo Trigger: Any action that unintentionally violates the taboo of the evil god will immediately attract the corresponding cleaner or strengthen all the strange monsters in the area.

[Introduction to the Mysterious Boss]

First layer: The Corridor of Flesh and Blood.

Guardian BOSS: High Priest - Humus Cultivator Boris Rootvine.

Battlefield characteristics: The entire area is his giant living greenhouse, with a creeping fungal carpet on the ground and walls covered with pulsating vines and giant flowers that emit hallucinogenic spores.

Special rules:

Symbiotic Ecosystem: Boris shares a portion of his health with greenhouse lifeforms.

Sufficient damage must be inflicted on both Boris and key symbiotic plants such as the Heart Giant Ficus and the Neurospora fungus to effectively reduce its lifespan.

Spore Infection: Releases various spores during combat: Hallucinogenic (confuses the target), Parasitic (deals continuous damage and spawns minions), and Enhancement (strengthens Boris and plants).

Forbidden Tumor of Compassion: If a player attempts to heal a teammate severely infected by spores, or shows compassion for the mutated plants, Boris will gain the Bleeding Heart effect, greatly restoring his health and summoning stronger guardians.

Defeating the enemy rewards you with [Purified Nucleus], ​​which can temporarily suppress flesh assimilation in a small area.

Second Floor: Shadow Archives Guardian BOSS: High Priest - Silent Librarian Oliver Bookmark, High Priest - Shadow Weaver Vera Shadowveil.

Battlefield characteristics: An endlessly expanding library where bookshelves move and reorganize on their own, books emit whispers of interference, and shadows possess independent life.

Special rules:

Curse of Knowledge: Oliver periodically reads aloud fragments of forbidden knowledge. Players must make a sanity check; those who fail will suffer a mental shock and be afflicted with a cognitive load, such as increased spellcasting and skill failure rates.

Memory Steal: Vera lurks in the shadows, and a successful ambush can temporarily steal a player's skill or key memory, which can then be used by the enemy for a short period of time.

Forbidden Cage of Reason: If a player attempts to figure out the movement pattern of the bookshelves or overanalyzes the BOSS's skill mechanics, Oliver will release a logic virus, causing the player's skills to descend into unpredictable chaos.

-

Forbidden Light and Shadow Game: Vera is only fully formed in the shadows. Players need to destroy light sources to create shadows to attack her, or light up areas to restrict her movement, but this will also expand the range of Oliver's Curse of Knowledge.

Defeating her will reward you with a [Forbidden Book Fragment], which may contain clues or weaknesses for future areas; Vera may drop a [Shadow Fragment], which can be used for short-term invisibility or to see through invisibility.

Third Layer: Heart of the Flesh Caster BOSS: High Priest - Fleshcrafter Gruhis Farn Battlefield Characteristics: A massive biological furnace and stitching workshop, filled with assembling Abyssal Familiars, living machines, and agonizing howls.

Special rules:

Mass Production and Evolution: Gruxus will continue to produce various Abyss Familiars to participate in the war.

Each time he loses a certain amount of health, he absorbs the flesh and bones on the battlefield, enters an evolutionary stage, transforms his own form, and gains new abilities, such as long-range acid spraying and melee limb reconstruction.

Painful Resonance: The wails within the arena will generate mental fluctuations, stacking layers of pain. If the layers are too high, players will suffer continuous mental damage and may be briefly controlled.

Taboo - Sin of Solidification: If a player attempts to use the same tactics or skills in a prolonged cycle, Grouchys will quickly "adaptively mutate," developing extremely high resistance to that type of damage and growing targeted counter-attack organs.

Destructible environment: Players can destroy flesh cultivation tanks to slow down monster production or blow up pain resonators to reduce mental stress, but this may trigger explosions or release more unstable mutants.

Defeating Rewards: Obtain [Stable Flesh Samples], which can be used to craft potent healing or anti-mutation potions; significantly weakens the strength and number of Abyss Familiars in subsequent areas.

Fourth Layer: Echoing Altar Guardian BOSS: High Priestess Eloisa the Silent One; High Priestess Serendra Mor, Wisdom of the Abyss Battlefield Characteristics: The circular altar located at the core of the outpost is directly connected to the energy that sustains the World Passage.

Abyssal runes floated in the air, constantly shifting, while liquid shadows and whispers flowed across the ground.

Special rules:

-

Ritual Maintenance: Located at the center of the altar, Serendra maintains a ritual that strengthens the entire battlefield and connects to the abyss. She periodically releases fragments of rules, randomly altering a fundamental rule of the battlefield, such as turning your attacks into healing, your healing into damage, or fixing the direction of gravity towards Serendra.

Prayer Impact: Eloisa walks along the edge of the altar, chanting prayers, generating a wide-ranging and inescapable conceptual shockwave.

Players with certain skills will forget their skills; disintegration will occur, causing continuous percentage-based health loss; reshaping will occur, randomly altering the player's physical condition, etc.

Energy Resonance: Runes on the altar can be activated or suppressed by specific attacks.

Activating the wrong rune will strengthen the boss, while activating the correct sequence may interrupt the ritual, weaken the boss, or provide a temporary buff to the player.

Forbidden Wall of Isolation; Forbidden Call of the True Name:

If a player attempts to completely block all damage with an Absolute Protection skill, Eloisa's Prayer will transform into Barrier Assimilation, turning the shield into a cage or an explosive source.

If a player accidentally utters or triggers the concept of Solstheim's true name during combat, it will cause the evil god to gaze excessively, temporarily opening a tiny rift in the center of the altar, releasing indiscriminate high damage and summoning even more terrifying Scavengers.

The key to breaking the deadlock: We must prioritize disrupting or defeating Serendra to destroy the core of the ritual, thus weakening Eloisa's prayers and making them interruptible. Otherwise, the ritual will continue to strengthen until it becomes unstoppable.

Defeating the boss will reward you with a [Abyss Core Fragment]; the stability of the World Passage will temporarily decrease, creating conditions for the final challenge.

Fifth Floor: Throne of Dark Scars Guardian BOSS: High Priest - Silent Blade Kain Knox Battlefield Characteristics: This is a desolate area composed of solidified shadows and broken weapons. Gravity is relatively stable here, but light is extremely absorbed, resulting in very poor visibility.

Special rules:

Dark Lord: Kain merges with the shadows of the entire area. He can appear or disappear instantly in any shadow, and conventional lock-on skills are extremely ineffective against him.

Art of Slaughter: His attacks are focused and deadly, with the characteristics of armor penetration, ignoring some damage reduction, and inflicting corrosive effects. He will prioritize attacking the players who pose the greatest threat to him, especially light-type targets.

Blade Hell: As the battle progresses, afterimages of his attacks will remain on the field, and touching them will cause damage and slow you down.

These blades will gradually increase in number, reducing the player's movement space.

Taboo: Rescue and Execution

If a player is in critical condition and the other players abandon their attacks to save them, Kain will receive an execution mark. His next attack on the dying player will be a critical hit and may even kill them instantly.

Light vs. Darkness: Creating strong light, such as holy light, flashbangs, or flames, can temporarily dispel small areas of shadow, forcing Cain to become visible. However, strong light sources will also become his priority targets for destruction.

Defeating the enemy will reward you with [Silent Blade].

Looking at this information, Su Xiaoshuang was speechless.

No, what are these high priests and chief priests of the Eye of the Veil, the organization of evil gods, doing when they enter the world portal?

Aren't they trying to find and serve an evil god?

How did he become a bizarre BOSS?

-

Perhaps it was a coincidence, or perhaps it was in response to what Su Xiaoshuang was thinking, a few more lines of text appeared on the game terminal: "Defeating these ordinary BOSSes is merely proof that you have the strength to meet the evil god."

"Solsom is watching you—"

"Sha Yan■"
