Chapter 50: Witchcraft Sacrifice (XIX)
Isabel’s task was obviously more difficult than Ellie’s task of finding her sister . According to the hint of the system, this is probably a hidden story related to the main story of the Witchcraft Sacrifice . He even suspected that this was probably a necessary condition for playing the true ending . Isabel’s lost memory must have key elements related to this task, and they must find ways to let her uncover that memory .
Qi Leren wondered how to start, so he simply discussed with Ning Zhou to take Isabel back to the temple first . Ning Zhou had no opinion, so the three people quickly returned to the temple .
As soon as they entered the hall, Qi Leren saw Ellie and Aisha looking at the rock wall in panic . Lu Youxin, Xie Wanwan, and Ye Xia were not there .
“What’s the matter?” Qi Leren came forward and asked .
Aisha pointed to the stone wall and said, “Just now, new words suddenly appeared on the stone wall…”
When Qi Leren looked intently, there were only two lines on the wall, one at the top and in the middle, telling them that the living witches had gathered and the dead witches were about to wake up . Then at the bottom of this line, near the left side, is the tip of the first witch, that is, the witch candidate whom Qi Leren just went to great lengths to kill . At this time, there is a new line on the right and bottom of this line .
The sentence on the right is like a clue to solve the puzzle: [Kill us all and the altar will appear . ]
However, the following sentence is similar to the prompt of the last witch candidate: [I have been awakened, wandering around, and those who kill me will get my wealth . ]
After a little thinking, Qi Leren felt that he understood the routine of this task .
Every time a witch is killed, the tip about the new witch will appear below the tip in the previous sentence, and at the same time, a clue related to completing the task will appear . When they kill all the seven witches, there will be seven clues in total, which may be the final altar location or sacrifice method .
“The second witch is not the same as the last one . She should be a random BOSS . ” Qi Leren said .
Ning Zhou nodded .
Because of the cooling of skills, Qi Leren didn’t want to take risks now, so he inquired about Ning Zhou, who looked at his injuries and shook her head .
“Wait for my skills to cool down and then go . It will take another half an hour . ” Qi Leren whispered close to Ning Zhou’s ear, and his warm breath touched her ear . Ning Zhou quickly jumped two meters away .
Qi Leren looked at the goddess whose face was reddish but still pretending to be cold, and felt that he was attacked by cuteness . It was so fun to flirt with the goddess!
Do it again next time! He secretly said to himself .
“There are two more words!” Isabel’s yell made Qi Leren wake up and hurry up to check .
Behind the second witch’s tip, there appeared a corresponding clue sentence, which said that someone had killed the second witch, and Qi Leren looked at it carefully .
[We used to serve the Old Devil, but now we serve the devil who is in charge of deception . ]

Qi Leren suddenly remembered that there seemed to be two players who had signed a demon contract with the Devil of Fraud on the airship heading for the Village of Twilight, which could plunder other people’s survival days . Power, Killing, and Fraud; in the background of the Nightmare Game, these three demons replaced the Old Devil and ruled the underworld . So, did the witch who won this mission serve the Lord of Fraud? Maybe the player who finished the final sacrifice in this task will turn into the devil’s servant?
Because at that time he couldn’t understand it, Qi Leren quietly read out the hint of the third witch .
[Are you willing to sacrifice, have you ever been betrayed, and have you seen the distortion and beauty of love when it’s sprouted into despair? The fire of love, which I wanted but could never have, burned to the end of my life . ]
Bloody words are engraved in the stone, flowing with dark red luster, and the twisted love seemed to penetrate into people’s hearts through the words . Qi Leren suddenly remembered the resentful words of the witch who was killed with molten iron in the courtyard . She said: “I didn’t hurt her… she lied to you…”
She… deceived?
At that time, the situation had been too tense, and Qi Leren hadn’t taken the witch’s crazy words to heart . But now, looking back, why was she locked in a coffin and burned alive with hot metal? Who carried out this cruel torture and what was the reason? When Qi Leren was in this task, it was difficult for him to regard these details as ordinary coincidences, and he believed there must be a reason .
What happened in this underground palace when the witch was sacrificed last time? What does this have to do with Isabel’s lost memory? Amid all the confusion, Qi Leren couldn’t find a clue .
Footsteps came from outside the temple, and all the people on the stone steps looked at the gate . Lu Youxin walked towards them with a straight face . The original neat sacrificial clothes were covered in blood and looked shocking .
Lu Youxin, who had not been killed, seems to have another kind of coldness, like her right hand soaked in blood, and at that time he couldn’t tell if it was her own .
“Don’t worry . ” Lu Youxin was glad to see several NPCs retreat again and again, looking frightened . She laughed brightly . “It’s not my blood, it’s dead meat that has been rotten for three years . In fact, it looks good . I didn’t even get a hot shot . It must be because I accidentally broke it too much . ”

As she spoke, she walked slowly to the front of the stone wall, gently crossed the second witch’s prompt with her hand covered with half-dry blood, and read aloud: “Are you willing to sacrifice, have you ever been betrayed, and have you seen the distortion and beauty of love when it’s sprouted into despair? The fire of love, which I wanted but could never have, burned to the end of my life… This feeling of despair is really beautiful . ”
Lu Youxin seemed possessed and looked at the words on the wall and smiled until… She was pecked by a big blackbird .
“Oh, your bird is quite fierce!” Lu Youxin said angrily as she clutched at the pecked back of her head .
Ning Zhou whistled and called the bird back . With such an interruption, the atmosphere was much better, and the oppressive feeling of being pinched at the heart also dissipated . After a little thought, Qi Leren asked, “Are you alright?”
“I’m fine, I’m fine . I saw two beauties fighting on the road, and I went up to do a good deed . Gee, I’m really kind-hearted . ” Lu Youxin boasted shamelessly and looked up and down at Qi Leren and Ning Zhou . Her expression was a bit subtle . “Mind if I ask, how do you know each other?”
Shit, Lu Youxin knew he was a man! If this kind of thing was exposed by others instead of admitting it himself, it would be easy for the goddess to think that he had ulterior motives! He also wanted to make friends with the goddess with the convenience of being a girl first, and then give the goddess a surprise when they’re out of the instance world! With the foundation of experiencing tribulations together, the goddess should accept him better then! Even if he couldn’t be a couple, he can be a good spare tire . He will strive to be a spare tire that trains by himself!
Qi Leren, who was nervous, naturally didn’t find any unusual behaviour with Ning Zhou . He was busy trying to wink at Lu Youxin, and couldn’t wait to send his inner cry to Lu Youxin’s mind: My lord, please, don’t expose me!
“Well, we met in the woods, and Ning Zhou saved me several times…” Although Qi Leren actually heard Chen Baiqi mention Ning Zhou when he was in the Village of Dusk, Chen Baiqi didn’t tell him the name of Ning Zhou at that time, but only said that it was a cold beauty . This description is really accurate . It really was a cold and beautiful goddess!
Lu Youxin’s eyes crazily jumped, and she didn’t have to look to know that Ning Zhou was staring at her with murderous eyes – telling her to shut up and roll away . Thinking about it, Ning Zhou didn’t want to expose his gender at this time and be regarded as a guy with bad intentions by his favorite cute girl . And now, the quest environment was so dangerous, it would be bad if Qi Leren had ill feelings for him . Moreover, he is still equipped with the skill card “Silent Mediation” . Once he opens his mouth, he has to start from scratch . He’ll try to explain it slowly after the quest is over .

However, Lu Youxin, who has already seen through everything, can only respond with a smile to two people who believe that they are straight men, but in others’ eyes, they’re lesbians, but in reality, they’re actually being gay: You told me to shut up, so don’t blame me .
