Who invited the witch into the eerie game?

Chapter 174 Your Highness, He's Still a Child

After reading the rules, Su Xiaoshuang blinked.

She discovered a serious problem: it didn't say how long the banquet at Saferon Castle would last, nor did it mention how long she needed to AFK here to complete the game.

After all, she joined the game as a strange NPC guest.

Does this mean she needs to help some players complete the bizarre game, just like before, and then complete it herself?

However, Su Xiaoshuang must state one thing: she really doesn't want to face dangerous things like the Fallen Sea God and the Evil God Sosem again.

It's true that she won these few battles against the gods.

But what about next time, and the time after that?

If you walk by the river often enough, you're bound to get your shoes wet.

If one day they were to encounter a strange god like Winnie, things would be terrible.

Thinking of Winnie, Su Xiaoshuang suddenly noticed a familiar figure in the banquet hall.

The other person was wearing a bright red long dress and looked elegant and proper.

Lacquer leaves.

The bizarre NPC judges encountered at the bloody comic convention.

Su Xiaoshuang didn't expect that she would also attend the dinner at Safiron Castle.

Noticing Su Xiaoshuang's gaze.

Qi Ye turned around, glanced at Su Xiaoshuang, and felt that she was somewhat familiar, but he couldn't remember who she was at all.

She simply raised her glass in a polite gesture before leaving Su Xiaoshuang's sight.

no way.

Newbies face a lot of pressure.

She had only recently ascended to the position of God of the Uncanny, and her foundation was unstable.

This time, many unknown and eerie gods will be present at the banquet at Saferon Castle.

The gazes of other eerie gods may not necessarily signify friendliness; they might simply be there to remember her and find an opportunity to devour her.

In addition, Qi Ye sensed an extremely dangerous aura emanating from Su Xiaoshuang.

She was certain that Su Xiaoshuang was someone she couldn't even imagine.

Su Xiaoshuang made no move to greet them.

Her gaze shifted to the food on the table.

The plates used to serve various delicacies are made of silver, gold, and crystal.

It is known that food served in gold or silver containers will have varying degrees of corruption effects, while the effects of crystal containers are unknown.

However, no matter what kind of food it is, it all looks polluted in Su Xiaoshuang's eyes.

can not eat.

None of these are as bizarre as the Fox Demon Town or the underwater city of Vashj.

These places offer pollution-free food.

If you don't want to eat, then don't eat.

She looked at the drink, which appeared to be made purely from blood plasma, with an even stronger contamination.

Su Xiaoshuang was very disappointed with the dinner at Safiron Castle.

How about using light magic to purify it?

Having already witnessed the pollution, she wouldn't want to eat it even if it were purified.

Su Xiaoshuang looked at Bloody Mary, the bartender, who was busy mixing drinks for the guests at the bar not far away.

Mary would occasionally chuckle, covering her mouth, as the guests shared their stories; she seemed quite charming.

However, these guests did not seem to know Mary's name.

If they had known that this was Bloody Mary, and a bizarre Sequence 1 boss at that, I wonder if they would still have remained calm.

"Beautiful lady, may I have the honor of inviting you for a drink?"

A young man in a suit handed me a glass of mixed cocktail. "Let me introduce myself. I am Corbin Safiron."

According to the rules, one cannot refuse an invitation to dance or converse with their master, who is a member of the Saphiron family.

However, it doesn't say that you can't refuse to drink.

"roll."

Su Xiaoshuang glanced at the wine, which was filled with strong pollution, and said calmly.

The fact that the food served at the castle dinner was all contaminated garbage already put Su Xiaoshuang in a bad mood.

Now, there are still members of the Safilon family who are using the castle's rules to cause her trouble.

This made Su Xiaoshuang feel increasingly worse.

Normally, Su Xiaoshuang would remain cautious when she entered the eerie game.

She's afraid of powerful and eerie things that might appear, afraid of strangers getting close, doesn't want to attract attention, and just wants to leave the game running until it ends.

However, after arriving at Safiron Castle, Su Xiaoshuang's agitated mood never calmed down.

It felt as if countless turbulent waves were surging within my heart.

"Madam, that's very rude of you."

Corbin looked at the tall knight in gleaming armor not far away, and the metal ceremonial hounds behind him seemed somewhat restless.

"Impolite language can put you in danger."

'

""

This might sound like concern for Su Xiaoshuang, but it's hard to say for sure.

Su Xiaoshuang remained silent.

She looked at Corbin with a strange expression.

Just as she was about to do something, the butler appeared at the right moment and pulled Corbin backward like a puppy.

"Distinguished guest, I apologize for Corbyn's rudeness."

The butler bowed deeply at a 90-degree angle. "He is a distant nephew of the Prince, still a child, and has only recently arrived at the castle. He hasn't yet learned many of the proper etiquette. To express our apologies, the castle will prepare a special meal for you. We hope you will enjoy this dinner."

He gracefully stepped back a few paces and clapped his hands.

Soon, a waiter came forward and removed all the contaminated food from Su Xiaoshuang's table.

Soon, a group of pretty and lovely maids brought all sorts of delicious food to the table.

None of the dishes served this time were contaminated.

Moreover, its condition is quite good.

Su Xiaoshuang felt a little better.

However, the young man named Corbin Safiron seemed quite dissatisfied with the butler's arrangement, and even somewhat unable to understand it.

Just as he was about to have an outburst, the butler slapped him, knocking Corbin unconscious.

"Please rest assured, esteemed guest, I guarantee that he will never appear in your sight again."

The butler bowed again. "I wonder if you are satisfied with this arrangement?"

"Um."

Su Xiaoshuang nodded, indicating her approval of the housekeeper's decision.

Honestly, she had no desire to use light magic to deal with this banquet filled with eerie, godlike guests.

If you actually do that, you might become the target of public criticism.

It could even lead to unnecessary danger.

After all, in the world of bizarre games, no one wants to have a natural enemy who wields the power of light.

Put yourself in Su Xiaoshuang's shoes. If she knew that a certain strange god was her nemesis, she might encounter him one day and he would take her life.

Then, Su Xiaoshuang will definitely try every possible way to kill this strange god.

The butler took the unconscious Corbin away.

Su Xiaoshuang began to enjoy the food on the table.

There was fruit wine, various small cakes, and some special monster meat on the table, and everything tasted quite good.

Meanwhile, to prevent similar incidents from happening again, every member of the Safilon family in the castle was warned that they were absolutely not allowed to disturb Princess Celia Xavier's meal, or they would be expelled.

"Butler, Corbin is still a child, you can't do this!"

In the castle's kitchen, a noblewoman in a blue dress rushed in, weeping and pleading.

"Oh, Mrs. Fisher," the butler bowed and said, "I know you are very sad, but this is the Prince's will, and I hope you can understand."

"Why?!" Mrs. Fisher roared. "He's a guest. Shouldn't guests be our food?"

""

Mrs. Fisher.

The butler straightened up, his expression serious. "I need to correct your thinking. Many times, the guests who come to the dinner party are indeed our food, but tonight's dinner party is different."

"Her Highness Celia Xavier, who is visiting today, is the most distinguished guest at this dinner party. She is a being who transcends the strange rules."

"If He is displeased, Saphiron Castle will cease to exist."

"We are not even qualified to be His food."

?

Mrs. Fisher stared at the butler, her eyes wide. "Butler, you're lying to me, aren't you?"

The butler raised his hand and threw the unconscious Corbin Safiron into the meat grinder in front of him, then activated the mechanism.

The machines roared to life.

In the blink of an eye, Corbin Safiron was churned into a mass of dark green, viscous blood plasma.

"Mrs. Fisher, the Prince likes you very much. I hope you won't make things difficult for him."

The butler stepped aside. "Now, you can use Corbin's flesh and blood to recreate a younger brother, but don't use his original appearance, and don't give him any extra memories."

Mrs. Fisher looked at the thick blood plasma in the machine and burst into tears.

"I still need to take charge of the banquet, please forgive me for not being able to stay here with you any longer."

The butler did not interfere further, but bowed and turned to leave. "Mrs. Fisher, if it were any other family member, they would have been at the table long ago. I hope you will not make a mistake. There are many gods who have come to the castle tonight."

On the other side, the players gathered together to discuss electing a team leader.

-

"Now that we've been assigned to the same team, I think it's absolutely necessary to elect a captain in this perilous and bizarre game," Yuta Imai said. "Everyone, I'm sure you've all seen various isekai anime. A Japanese person like me is the chosen captain."

"To be honest, I have fought against more than 20 strange demigods, and even encountered two terrifying strange gods."

"I am still alive and well to this day, which is enough to prove my strength."

?

Yuta Imai's opening remarks shocked everyone.

"You're not suitable."

Zhang Qingyu said, "My intuition tells me that if you become the captain, you will lead everyone to annihilation."

"you!"

Yuta Imai glared angrily at Zhang Qingyu, "I'm not qualified, and you, this weird envoy, are even less qualified."

"First of all, I am not a messenger of the supernatural," Zhang Qingyu said. "Secondly, I am not planning to compete for the captaincy, but I will vote for Zen Master Hen."

"Amitabha!"

Master Liaohen clasped his hands together and said nothing.

He seemed to have no obsession with becoming the captain; whether or not he became the captain was fine with him.

"Arthur is a good name. Why not choose Arthur? He is also a demigod of Sequence 2," Rinako Shimada asked.

"This bizarre game is essentially a noble banquet," Arthur Cresson said. "But what I hate most are noble banquets; I rarely attend them. Aren't you worried that making me captain will lead you to break the rules?"

Rinako Shimada felt like she was choking.

The person she wanted to support actually gave up the captain's election.

This is a bizarre game; whether you become the team leader or not will determine whether you survive.

"I chose Zen Master Hen."

Arthur smiled slightly and made his choice.

Seeing that the two had chosen Zen Master Liaohen, and no one else was willing to step forward to take on the role of captain.

Isabella, Tang Weixi, and Yu Mo all chose Zen Master Liaohen.

Especially Tang Weixi and Yu Mo.

A person with severe social anxiety.

One is autism.

Making them captains is more painful than killing them.

"Amitabha."

Master Liaohen said, "Since everyone has chosen me, I will fulfill my responsibilities as team leader. I also hope that everyone can cooperate in the following games and leave alive together."

"Zen Master!"

Rinako Shimada said, "Now that you're the captain, I hope you'll prioritize one thing: expelling this strange messenger from the team."

"As you should know, the Strange Messengers are the accomplices of the Strange God; they never act like humans in the game."

"They are like wolves hiding among the crowd."

"If she isn't removed from the team in time, I'm worried that everyone will be killed by her."

Oh, this.

Zhang Qingyu revealed a wise look in her eyes: "Why are you so insistent that I am the Envoy of the Mysterious Order and want to expel me? I've heard that some people like to cry wolf, are you perhaps the real Envoy of the Mysterious Order?"

"Oh, and you too, Yuta Imai, right?"

"You said you saw the God of the Uncanny twice and grew stronger with each encounter. Are you sure you didn't receive the God of the Uncanny's blessing?"

"What should someone who receives the blessing of a mysterious god be called? It's really hard to guess."

"I remember now, it's the Strange Messenger."

"...

'

That means Shen Yining isn't here.

Here, she would discover that Zhang Qingyu, with her bright eyes, is truly intelligent.

He silenced the two Japanese players with his first words.

"Amitabha!"

Master Liaohen spoke again.

His voice seemed to possess a special aura that silenced everyone.

"Gentlemen, I believe that Zhang Qingyu is not the envoy of the Mysterious Order, nor could she possibly become the envoy of the Mysterious Order. I am willing to guarantee this with my life."

"Master, don't be impulsive. Some things shouldn't be said carelessly, especially in a strange game."

Zhang Qingyu quickly stopped her.

She doesn't need any guarantees at all.

Considering that these two Japanese players had been targeting her, Zhang Qingyu had already made a plan.

We just need to find an opportunity to kill those two.

A Sequence 3 ninja.

An artist of Sequence 4.

Zhang Qingyu couldn't understand how these two dared to repeatedly provoke a Sequence 3 swordsman.

"Amitabha."

Master Liaohen said, "Everyone, let's first discuss which main quest we should choose, or a method to complete the game outside of the main quest."

"Main Quest One: The Prince's Farewell. We need to prepare three rare offerings to satisfy Prince Sapphiron."

"Main Quest Two: Mammon's Contract. It requires us to make a groundbreaking deal to obtain an interdimensional contract, but we will be permanently indebted."

"Main Quest Three: Speedrun the Castle. This requires us to destroy the core rules of Sapphiron Castle, and even after completing it, there's no guarantee we can escape the castle."

"In addition, we need to be constantly aware of our corruption level and etiquette score."

,

"Ladies and gentlemen, begin your selections!"
