I'm on the Ark, and I started as a succubus.

What is most eye-catching is a purplish-pink pattern on Xueying's skin, which looks like a calyx or a vase. The pattern is extremely intricate and delicate, and it seems to be drawn according to the meridians to create the decorative patterns inside.

Her sweaty, radiant skin, illuminated by the crystal chandelier above, rose and fell slightly with each breath, the purplish-pink mark subtly trembling, emanating a faint, alluring purplish-pink fluorescence.

It seems that the decadent and depraved nature of the deity is even more intense.

It gives the impression that the situation is completely hopeless; she is now an unknown evil god in this place.

Whether it be the body, the mind, or the soul, everything that is empty has already become an indescribable toy of the evil god.

"Sora, Sora?!"

Chen Huijie knelt down and reached out to pinch Kong's face, trying to wake Kong, whose eyes were blank, white, and utterly lifeless.

Kong looked truly wretched and pitiful.

It's like adding too much cream, causing it to boil and burst through the thin crust during baking, resulting in a cream puff that overflows and spills everywhere.

"Kong, Kong... wake up!"

"Waaah~"

Her delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly, and a hint of brilliance appeared in her empty eyes, but a pinkish-purple heart-shaped pattern appeared in her pupils.

After she slowly regained consciousness, she began to sob and cry, "No more, really no more... Sora knows she was wrong, Sora is willing to do anything, anything... Let Sora rest for a while, just for a moment..."

“Kong, don’t be afraid, Kong! It’s me, do you still think of me? I’m Inspector Chen from the Lungmen Guard Bureau…”

No matter how Chen Huijie tried to wake Kong, Kong just kept pleading in a tearful voice.

"Kong! It's me, don't be afraid anymore! I'll save you right now..."

Chen Huijie pulled out Chixiao, intending to sever the leather clasps binding Kong's wrists and ankles, but Kong seemed to be startled awake by her actions, almost shouting, "No! Don't untie... Zaolu, Master... they're just leaving Kong here."

"What? Kong, don't be afraid, I'm here!"

Chen Huijie spoke with absolute certainty, but when she made a move, Kong struggled and refused to let her unfasten the leather clasp.

"It's me! Chen sir. Your Penguin Logistics team often comes to my place to take statements, don't you remember?"

Chen Huijie reached out and hugged Kong's face. "With me here, there's nothing to be afraid of."

Kong bit her lip, tears streaming down her face, but she still shook her head vigorously, "Don't worry about me, I... I can never go back. Waaah, Inspector Chen, Inspector Chen... you should leave now, leave now, maybe it's not too late to run."

"Hey! What nonsense are you talking about..."

Chen Huijie was stunned for a moment.

In the instant she looked up, she saw Hoshiguma's figure on another jade platform.

246 Hoshiguma: Let's go, hurry up and go!

The moment Chen Huijie realized that Hoshiguma was also there, she no longer had time to think about what had happened.

She jumped off the altar, ran to the other side of the altar, and climbed up.

"Hoshiguma, Hoshiguma?!"

Chen Huijie knelt on one knee, calling out to Hoshiguma, whose face seemed to be covered in cream.

"Hoshiguma!"

Chen Huijie breathed a slight sigh of relief when she noticed that Hoshiguma's chest was rising and falling slowly, indicating that she was still breathing, but had fainted like Sora.

Ye Mei winced in pain. Hoshiguma seemed to sense that someone was blocking the light, once again shrouding herself in a terrifying shadow. Before she had fully opened her eyes, she said in a trembling voice, choked with sobs:

"No more... Please, please let me rest for a little while, just a little while..."

A look of astonishment, even horror, appeared on Chen Huijie's face.

"Hoshiguma?"

She stared blankly at Hoshiguma for a while, then suddenly remembered the voice she had heard in the corridor earlier.

Now it's confirmed that the voice was indeed Hoshiguma's.

In that torrential rain, which was almost violent, Hoshiguma cried and begged incessantly, and an extremely tragic fate befell her.

She was completely unaware of this and even found it somewhat amusing.

“Hoshiguma, Hoshiguma. It’s me, Chen Huijie, I’m here. You…”

Chen Huijie wanted to say, "Don't be afraid anymore," but she was afraid that if she said it, she would hurt Hoshiguma further.

Actually, she, that char siu cat, and Hoshiguma all say they have the same personality: they are stubbornly strong-willed and always want to shoulder everything themselves, unable to bear others seeing that they actually have a very vulnerable side.

If people find out, they'll probably want to silence me.

Chen Huijie noticed that Hoshiguma suddenly stopped pleading in that begging voice, most likely because she had realized that it was actually her standing in front of her at that moment.

Chen Huijie suppressed her emotions and asked softly, "Hoshiguma, what happened? Please tell me what happened."

Hoshiguma's breathing seemed to pause for a moment.

Immediately, a struggling expression appeared on her face, tears welled up in her eyes again, and her voice was weak and exhausted.

"Ah Jie, Ah Jie... Run! Get out of here quickly!"

"What are you talking about? How could I leave you behind? Hey, those guys from Penguin Logistics are here too."

Chen Huijie gave an ugly smile, "You mean I should abandon you? That char siu cat and Lin Yuxia are nowhere to be seen either. You mean I should just ignore everything and..."

"Correct."

Hoshiguma interrupted Chen Huijie's rambling in a weak voice, "What... don't worry about anything, just run... it's yours, even that older sister doesn't care..."

"elder sister?"

Chen Huijie's red eyes suddenly widened. "What do you mean? Hoshiguma? My sister—you saw Talulah, didn't you?"

Hoshiguma sighed helplessly. She realized she had said the wrong thing, and now it was even less likely that Chen Huijie would leave.

It's impossible no matter what.

"Hoshiguma, tell me what happened, or it's about Talulah."

Chen Huijie glanced at the leather buckle on Hoshiguma's wrist and easily untied it.

She reached out her hand to Hoshiguma, wanting to take it and help her up. "Hoshiguma, there's nothing we can't solve together. Can you walk? Let's go together..."

"Run, A-Jie... Run quickly! Don't worry about anyone or anything. If you can still leave, leave Longmen immediately and hide in the most remote place possible. No matter what happens, you have to help."

Chen Huijie's hand froze in mid-air.

Her red eyes were filled with astonishment and confusion as she slowly withdrew her hand. "Hey, Hoshiguma, what are you talking about? This isn't like you! Don't scare me! Get up! Even something like that wouldn't make you like this, would it?"

Hoshiguma opened her eyes, her gaze filled with tears and expressions of despair, helplessness, and pity meeting Chen Huijie's eyes.

She stared at Chen Huijie for a moment, tears slowly streaming down her face. She shook her head gently. "Run, Huijie. Listen to me this time. That's a god, a god in the truest sense. You can't do anything about it."

The image of that enormous, terrifying demonic figure flashed in my mind, incredibly powerful, exuding an aura as if it came from purgatory.

There was simply no way to resist.

The moment I saw it, I wanted to kneel down, press my head firmly to the ground, and show my submission.

Those beings of that level, no matter how many there are or how hard they try, will ultimately be defeated.

All the resistance, all the struggle, all the resistance, all the hardship will only become a prize for the evil god to enjoy.

That kind of existence is impossible to resist.

He is destiny, the future, and the ultimate fate of these beautiful girls.

It is destined to be an invincible force.

"God? Giant beast?"

Chen Huijie frowned. "I've heard Wei Yanwu mention it. That kind of thing is powerful, but it's not to the point where it's impossible to deal with."

She patted the hilt of Chixiao's sword. "Do you know the origin of this sword? It was forged from the corpse of a giant beast. Even giant beasts are not invincible."

Chen Huijie extended her hand to Hoshiguma again:

"Help me, Hoshiguma! Even if He is something we can't deal with, we have to get our people out of here now, tell that old guy Wei Yanwu what happened, and have the people from the Great Yan come over and clean up the things they let out."

Hoshiguma stared blankly at Chen Huijie for a while, still unchanged. No matter what happened, she remained the same, the same person who would never be afraid or back down.

That's why I became friends with her.

"Do not……"

Hoshiguma's face showed an expression of extreme struggle. She stood up and broke free of the leather handcuffs, which were almost purely decorative, and pushed Chen Huijie.

"This time is different, A-Jie. This time, the enemy is beyond your imagination. Let's go, let's go quickly!"

Hoshiguma burst into tears, “Don’t be like this, don’t ignore everyone and always think there’s a solution to everything. You can’t save anyone, not me, not Swire, not Lin Yuxia, not even your sister, you can’t save any of them. All you can do is try to leave here!”

"Hurry up, or I'll leave you here right now... Waaah, hurry up and go!"

Fear showed on her face, and then she bit her lip and sobbed, "Come on, don't let fear be punished in vain."

When the word 'punishment' was mentioned, Hoshiguma's shoulders trembled, and her face was almost entirely filled with fear.

There's another one here, number 247~

"Hoshiguma!"

Chen Huijie grabbed Hoshiguma's shoulders and shook her forcefully a few times. "Cheer up! Don't be like this..."

The sound of clapping abruptly echoed in the theater-like temple, interrupting Chen Huijie's words.

Hoshiguma's eyes widened instantly, and her body trembled. "No, no... don't do this..."

Chen Huijie gripped the hilt of Chixiao's sword, slowly stood up, her red eyes glaring at her surroundings, her voice cold and angry, "Come out."

The sound of the clapping was ethereal, as if it came from all directions, and she couldn't discern the source of the sound.

But one thing is certain: that voice is approaching here step by step, one step at a time.

With her red eyes scanning her surroundings, Chen Huijie silently tensed and relaxed her muscles, then adjusted her breathing to enter her optimal fighting state.

She was certain that if any enemy dared to show their face, Chixiao would immediately strike them down.

"Hoshiguma helped me hold her hand down."

A magnetic voice echoed within the theater temple.

Hoshiguma's shoulders trembled, a look of fear appeared on her face, and tears streamed down her face like a broken string.
