Chapter 53: Witchcraft Sacrifice (XXII)
Looking at Ning Zhou walking briskly, Qi Leren felt that the world was dark . Goddess, his goddess really liked him, but she was a lesbian! Lesbian! It’s worse than the goddess having a boyfriend!
No, don’t think too much, maybe the conditions of being selected are not what he thinks, and even if it is related to love, maybe the goddess loves her boyfriend, bah, I don’t know, don’t think blindly, how can the goddess have a boyfriend! Goddess is still waiting for him to pursue her! Let’s concentrate on this dream world first . As for the goddess … Make a good relationship with the goddess first . As for the pursuit of something, let’s wait for him to get out of the instance world to change his body back and then slowly figure it out .
Ning Zhou’s consciousness was also attached to a strange NPC . Although it was a completely different face, when she looked at him, the silence in her eyes was exactly the same .
Qi Leren was convinced that even if the goddess changed her body, he would still be attracted to her . This attraction came not from her appearance, but from her own irresistible attraction .
“Ning Zhou, are you all right?” Qi Leren asked with concern .
“Nothing . ” Ning Zhou shook her head and looked at Ye Xia .
Suddenly hearing Ning Zhou’s voice, Qi Leren still became somewhat speechless . Thinking that now that they’re not in their own bodies, without any skill cards or whatnot, Ning Zhou could naturally speak .
“She’s Ye Xia, we met just now . ” Qi Leren didn’t admit that he had just been scared half to death by Ye Xia . He probably felt a little embarrassed in his heart, so he simply changed the subject and talked about this dreamworld’s witch .
Ning Zhou listened to him quietly . This time, there was no big black bird making noises around her, and Qi Leren wasn’t used to it .
“So Ye Xia and I are going to find some oil and find a way to burn this witch . Ye Xia said that she’d seen the warehouse where oil is stored before . Let’s go together . ” Qi Leren said .
So the three acted together .
The ubiquitous ghosts in the underground palace had disappeared . From another angle, it showed that the world they were in wasn’t a real underground palace, but a dreamworld constructed by a dead witch . As long as the witch was completely killed, they could get out of the dreamworld .
The next thing was simple, Qi Leren didn’t find the opportunity to step in . Ye Xia took the two people to the warehouse where the oil was stored, and three people found flint again . Ye Xia and Ning Zhou discussed how to attract witches . Even without the limitation of skill cards, Ning Zhou still cherished words like gold . Qi Leren gawked at the tacit understanding between them, feeling that he was excluded .
“Can I help you?” Qi Leren interposed .
“Ning Zhou and I can do it . ” Ye Xia smiled politely, and then continued to use a stone to draw a simple map on the ground to explain the route to lead the witches .
“Want me to lure the monster? I’m still very experienced in this respect . ” As someone with E-ranked luck who was chased by a killer to run all over the hospital in the Novice Village, Qi Leren has accumulated sufficient experience in this respect .
“You can’t use skill cards and props now . I’d rather be on the safe side . “ Ye Xia declined Qi Leren’s proposal .
Qi Leren wanted to say more . Ning Zhou’s blue eyes had already looked up . Although she was still silent, the eyes clearly told Qi Leren that she didn’t need his help .
Qi Leren gave up somewhat sullenly, and sat on the oil drum to watch them continue to discuss . Finally, the plan was finalized and implemented .
Ye Xia set up the trap, and Ning Zhou went to attract the witches . While waiting, Qi Leren couldn’t help thinking deeply about Ning Zhou’s attitude towards him . He also discovered that although Ning Zhou was a girl, she was very protective of him . She always watched over and took care of him completely as a weak person . When encountering dangerous things, she would rather discuss with the strange Ye Xia than put him in danger .
It’s a bit bad, Qi Leren thought, is it better for him to confess to Ning Zhou earlier? It feels strange to be taken care of as a girl . But if he says it now, what will Ning Zhou think?

Qi Leren was a little unsure of Ning Zhou’s character . He only knew that she was a cold-looking but shy person . Will she become angry from embarrassment if she suddenly learned the truth? If she got angry and misunderstood, how would it end then? Most importantly, Ning Zhou’s sexual orientation…
Oh, forget it . I’d better explain it to Ning Zhou slowly after leaving the instance world and returning to the Village of Dusk .
"Are you thinking about Ning Zhou?” Ye Xia’s voice suddenly sounded in his ear, and Qi Leren discovered that he was distracted in such a dangerous place .
“I, I guess…” Qi Leren answered honestly .
Ye Xia wiped the ordinary long knife in her hand with the corner of her clothes, and her smile was a bit inscrutable: “I can understand it a bit . ”
“Ah? Understand what?” Now it’s Qi Leren’s turn to fail to understand .
“Nothing, I just want to say that when people look at the person they like, that look is different . No matter how hesitant, concealed or embarrassed, your eyes are bright when you see her . ” Ye Xia stopped the wiping action, spoke softly and slowly, and smiled quite deeply . “She is the same . ”
Qi Leren, who was still embarrassed, was scared silly when he heard Ye Xia’s last half sentence: “Are you … are you sure?”
“Be careful, someone’s coming!” Ye Xia who was originally going to continue suddenly turned serious .
Qi Leren also immediately kept his thoughts, and watched Ning Zhou running towards this area . Three strange girls chased after her, and ran all the way into the room with the pre-set trap . The fire rose, and Qi Leren hiding outside the room was carrying a heart for Ning Zhou . Although he knew she wouldn’t have a problem, he couldn’t help worrying when she was in danger .
The witches’ piercing shrieks came from the firelight, and finally gradually disappeared in the fire .

The surrounding scene has become blurred and distorted, and Qi Leren’s vision blurred, and there is an ethereal voice in their ears .
“I love you so much, I tried so hard to protect you… Why… Why…”
“Because, it’s very interesting . It’s so interesting to watch you deceive and kill each other because of despair, fear, and jealousy . ”
The voice disappeared, and the scene before him was restored again . Qi Leren found himself standing in a strange corridor, surrounded by silence .
Whose were those voices? One was very similar to the witch who chased him in the dream world just now, while the other was a completely strange female voice, with full pleasure flowing in her beautiful voice . It seemed that playing and torturing others like this was her greatest pleasure .
It’s terrible . It’s terrible for people to treat such terrible things as fun .
Qi Leren couldn’t help becoming cold . He didn’t know who was the owner of this voice . No matter how he recalled it, he couldn’t remember where he had heard this voice, but it was subtle and he felt that the tone was a little familiar .
Who exactly was it?
No matter how hard he ransacked his mind, he couldn’t remember it . Qi Leren had to put this problem aside and check his own body . With all the skill cards in the card slot, he finally reassured and felt that his life was guaranteed .
He didn’t know where Ning Zhou was, and Ye Xia too .

Qi Leren searched around, but they were not found . Fortunately, the terrain became familiar, and he successfully found his way back to the temple .
Back at the temple, Ellie and Aisha were still inside, but Isabel hadn’t come back, and Ning Zhou hadn’t either . Qi Leren was a little worried, and asked the two sisters if they had seen them . After getting a negative answer, he became more and more uneasy .
After killing the witch, new information appeared again, which was still a clue and a hint .
[The Lord of Fraud likes to see human betrayal, depravity, and despair . ]
Qi Leren’s mind suddenly flashed a flash of light . The voice he heard when he was leaving the dreamworld seemed to be like this . What was the connection between the owner of the voice and the Devil of Fraud? That’s right, this group of witches serve the Devil of Fraud .
He looked at the clue to the next witch .
[I tore open my companion’s chest and ate her heart, but I was still unbearably hungry . Is your heart just as delicious?]
Before Qi Leren thought deeply, footsteps came from outside the temple . He turned around excitedly and looked forward to Ning Zhou’s return, but saw Lu Youxin come in with an indifferent face as she saw Qi Leren standing in front of the stone wall . She frowned and said, “Did you pass the corridor on the right when you came?”
“No, I came from the left . Why?” Qi Leren asked doubtfully .
Lu Youxin looked at him deeply and seemed to confirm whether he was telling the truth . After a long time, she said, “Ye Xia is dead . ”
“Ah?” Qi Leren gawked at her, thinking he had heard wrong .
Lu Youxin snorted and repeated impatiently: “Ye Xia is dead . ”
