Chapter 55: Sacrifice to the Witch (24)

Views:

Qi Leren returned to the hall again and walked up the stone steps. He suddenly found that Sister Ellie, who had been in the hall, was gone.

"Ai Li, Aisha? Are you there?" Qi Leren called out strangely, his echo echoed in the empty hall, but no one responded.

There is a faint chill in the air, and the chill and anxiety are intertwined, catalyzing fear.

The Qi Le people walked forward until they came to the stone wall, where there were two more prompts, which meant that another witch was killed.

[We were like you, and you will be like us.]

[They chased me and killed me here. Now I'm going to chase them and kill them here.]

Qi Leren read out the reminder that appeared after the death of the last witch, and chewed it carefully.

Is this just a curse? Should be more than that.

There were hurried footsteps outside the hall, and Qi Leren turned nervously to look at the door. A big black bird flew in first and landed on his shoulder. Ning Zhou and Isabel appeared at the door and saw At Qi Leren's moment, Ning Zhou's icy eyes softened slightly, and she seemed to be relieved.

"Are you all right?" Qi Leren hurried over, and when he got closer, he realized that Ning Zhou's arm was wrapped in a bandage, and Yin Hong's blood was vaguely visible on it, "Are you injured?"

Isabelle said nervously: "It's that woman... the woman who brought me to the palace at that time."

"Xie Wanwan?" Qi Leren asked.

Isabelle nodded, with a look of fear on her face: "Ning Zhou fought with her, she was so strong and fast, she almost killed me, and then Ning Zhou shouted to get down, I... I I fell down and was almost slashed by her knife, so scary! Fortunately, we happened to meet a witch who chased after her, and we finally escaped."

Saying that, she covered her forehead and groaned in pain: "My head hurts, I seem to remember something, but I don't know..."

"Don't think about it yet, don't worry." Qi Leren reassured and looked at Ning Zhou again.

Ning Zhou shook his head slightly, as if to say don't worry.

Even the goddess suffered, is this Xie Wanwan so powerful? Qi Leren recalled Xie Wanwan she saw in the Swamp Tower. She could control bugs and plants, but she seemed to be far inferior to Ye Xia in melee combat, let alone Ning Zhou who was very skilled. Isabelle also said she was strong and fast

"Where are Ellie and Elsa?" Isabelle asked softly.

Qi Leren shook his head: "I went out just now, and when I came back, I found that they were gone. Besides, Ye Xia is dead. The murderer is probably Xie Wanwan."

Qi Leren recounted what he saw and heard after leaving the illusion, and whispered: "It seems that Lu Youxin has to be notified to let her be careful. There are also Ellie and Aisha, I don't know if they are okay. "

"Scarlet! Scarlet appeared again!" Isabel pointed at the stone wall and exclaimed.

Qi Leren looked back and saw another clue and a hint.

[Kill each other in anger and fear, and you will gain strength from it.]

"So it is..." The moment he saw the prompt, Qi Leren suddenly realized that it was so. If killing other witches can gain power, this can explain why Xie Wanwan's strength suddenly increased greatly, and why she attacked Isabel and Ning Zhou. She should have found this out after killing Ye Xia, but if so...

"Oops, Ali Aisha and Lu Youxin are in danger!" Qi Leren said anxiously.

"Are you going to find them?" Isabelle asked anxiously.

"Wait first, don't be impulsive, let me think about it." Qi Leren walked around holding his forehead, sorted out all the clues, and finally stood in front of the stone wall unknowingly.

[They guard the underground palace and are meticulous. I will give them life and let them walk freely.]

Is this a hint for the next witch? There are only two witches left now. If we can solve the witches as soon as possible and complete the task directly and return to the Land of Twilight, maybe we don't have to confront Xie Wanwan head-on

"What we have to do now are two things, one is to find all the people who are still alive, otherwise Xie Wanwan will continue to kill, so that her power will also increase, and in the end, I am afraid we will not be able to deal with her; the other is to hurry up Solve the remaining two witches, complete the sacrifice according to the clues given on the stone wall, and end the task directly. These two things do not conflict and can be done together. In short, we have to get ahead of Xie Wanwan, and there is not much time left for us. ." Qi Leren said, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw two more prompts appear on the stone wall.

So fast, the witches are being eliminated faster and faster, is this one solved by Xie Wanwan or Lu Youxin

[One of you has been betrayed.]

Qi Leren smiled bitterly, this reminder came too late.

In a blink of an eye, there was only the last witch left, and he looked at the last witch's reminder: [Crawling like a gecko with a broken tail, crawling, smelling the living, eating the corpse of the dead, crawling, crawling.]

The hints written in blood were full of sticky nausea. Qi Leren frowned and read all the hints and clues again. The seven clues to the witch had all appeared, and there was still one quest clue after the witch was eliminated. We won't know until the witch is eliminated. According to common sense, this last tip is probably the key.

The big black bird cleared his throat and returned to Ning Zhou. Ning Zhou touched its head and nodded to Qi Leren.

"Your injury..." Qi Leren was still worried about Ning Zhou's injury, Ning Zhou came to him step by step and looked down at him.

The distance is too close, and the shimmering eyes are full of himself, and in the stunned state, Ning Zhou has already pulled his hand and wrote: [It doesn't matter. She didn't want to kill me.]

Qi Leren looked at her in amazement, Xie Wanwan didn't mean to kill Ning Zhou? So what exactly does she want to do

"Let's go then." Qi Leren groaned, and equipped with SL Dafa, primary fighting skills, and the raining clothing collection skill that had been cooled down, so the dagger had to use ordinary daggers.

Isabelle covered her forehead with a painful expression on her face: "My head still hurts..."

"Do you remember anything?" Qi Leren asked.

Isabelle shook her head: "I still can't remember."

Qi Leren didn't know what conditions needed to be met for her to restore her memory, so she had to shelve this issue first.

The three left the empty hall once again. The air is still filled with the stale smell. A little far from the hall, the half-human half-beast statues originally displayed on both sides of the corridor have been destroyed, and they fell to the ground in pieces. It can be seen that a fierce battle has passed. Qi Leren thought for a while, the last witch's reminder was "they guard the underground palace, be meticulous, I will give them life and let them walk freely", she should be able to resurrect these statues.

Was it Lu Youxin or Xie Wanwan who killed this witch

Qi Leren stopped and looked around, and soon found that there were burn marks on the surrounding walls and ground. It seems that Lu Youxin did it

"It should be Lu Youxin, I hope she's all right." Qi Leren breathed a sigh of relief and said to Ning Zhou.

Ning Zhou fixedly looked at the broken statue all over the ground, even picked up a piece and held it in his hand, then shook his head from Qi Leren.

"It's not Lu Youxin? Could it be Xie Wanwan? But there are no plants here." Qi Leren murmured.

Ning Zhouyi said, Qi Leren also noticed that many of these scattered statues were very neatly cut, not like they were broken, but they were cut off by sharp objects. He had never seen Lu Youxin use it. Weapons, when he was in the palace, he had seen her come back unarmed but her hands were full of blood, and she didn't seem like someone who was used to using weapons.

But Xie Wanwan doesn't seem to be a person who is used to using cold weapons. He has seen Xie Wanwan and Ye Xia's fight. At that time, she didn't use any weapons. Later, she saw with her own eyes that Ye Xia's body had no wounds caused by weapons, and she was fatally wounded. It was pierced through the abdominal cavity by the branches.

However, this is not necessarily the case. If the person who pretended to be Ye Xia in the fantasy realm was really her, then she should also be a master at using knives.

"Maybe it's really Xie Wanwan, be careful, maybe she didn't go far." Qi Leren said solemnly.

"Gah—" Ning Zhou's black bird suddenly made a strange cry, and pecked Ning Zhou's ear with its beak, "There, the smell of blood."

The three of them immediately walked forward, and after turning a corner, where the dimly lit corridor ahead was illuminated by candlelight, the long black hair was soaked in blood like a winding water plant, and the lifeless corpse was silent. Lying on the ground, she was no longer a living person, but a dead thing, a puzzle that came to an abrupt end.

Qi Leren stared blankly at the corpse in the distance, his mind blank.

It wasn't until Ning Zhou had walked past him that he regained his senses and muttered like a wandering soul, "Xie Wanwan? Is she dead?"
