Chapter 54: Witchcraft Sacrifice (XXIII)

Ye Xia was dead? How could that be?

“Just now, I met Ye Xia in the dreamworld. She, Ning Zhou and I were pulled into the witch’s dreamworld together, and possessed the witches from three years ago. All items and skills couldn’t be used…” Qi Leren said, interrupted by Lu Youxin.

“Possessed? So what you saw was just someone who called herself Ye Xia? As for whether she was telling the truth or not, how can you be sure? “ Lu Youxin cocked her head a little and looked at him with some sarcasm.

Qi Leren swallowed saliva, and a chill rose on his back.

Yes, how did he know that the person he met was really Ye Xia? What he saw and talked to was just a person who claimed to be Ye Xia possessing an NPC from beginning to end. With his shallow understanding of Ye Xia, he couldn’t distinguish clearly.

”…Why do you have such doubts?“ Qi Leren felt something was wrong. Why did Lu Youxin suspect that the "Ye Xia” he met was not herself?

“Of course, because Ye Xia’s body doesn’t look like it just died.” Lu Youxin says, before with a confused and irritated look, she frowned and looked at the new tips on the wall.

“I’ll go and have a look,” Qi Leren said.

“What’s there to see on a corpse,” Lu Youxin said coldly as she concentrated on studying the words on the wall. You couldn’t tell that she was still pursuing Ye Xia not long ago.

“At least to know who killed her!”

Lu Youxin turned and looked at him with a smile: “Oh, maybe it’s me?”

Qi Leren groaned: “No, it wouldn’t be you. If it was you, why did you tell me about her death?”

Lu Youxin clicked her tongue: “Then go and see it, and you’ll understand. However, I advise you not to take it too seriously. It’s common for people to die in quests. There’s no foolproof quest, and there’s no player who can only win or only lose. One day I will die, you will die, Ning Zhou will die, and everyone will die. This is the doomed ending for us. ”

Although Lu Youxin spoke in a relaxed tone, Qi Leren’s mood was extremely heavy. He entered the world not long ago, but he had already vaguely felt the despair and fear of being precarious: “Is there really no way to leave this game?”

“Who knows, maybe when you die, you’ll find that you’ve opened your eyes in your bed. Everything here is just a nightmare.” Lu Youxin shrugged her shoulders. “Maybe, after you jump out of the player’s identity and enter another level, you can become a chess player, which must be wonderful.”

“Jump out of the player’s identity?” Qi Leren asked curiously.

“Uh-huh, so after completing this task, I’ll probably try the task of opening the Village of Dawn, hoping that everything will be different after arriving there.” Lu Youxin finished that and finally glanced at the rock and left the hall.

Qi Leren hesitated for a moment, but still couldn’t help worrying. He decided to go there first. Before leaving, he explained to Ellie’s sister that if she saw Isabel and Ning Zhou coming back, to ask them to wait for him here.

Outside the hall, the corridor was still cold, and Qi Leren took a deep breath of cool dirty air and headed for the corridor on the right.

He couldn’t judge whether the Ye Xia met in the dreamland was true or not now, but he remembered that Ye Xia said that her original body was slightly injured. At that time, he asked her if she had met Xie Wanwan, and she nodded her head.

If it was really Ye Xia, then she should’ve met Xie Wanwan again after leaving the dreamworld, and then she was killed. If it was a fake Ye Xia, then who impersonated Ye Xia and why did she do it? Was it Xie Wanwan? But there was no evidence…

His thinking was becoming increasingly disordered. Qi Leren had to put aside his questions first, and continue to the right corridor.

There is a faint smell of mud and blood intertwined in the air. Qi Leren touched his nose and walked softly around a corner with a dagger in hand. Deep in the front corridor, countless plants emerged from the cracks in the wall, hanging around like a green spider web. In the middle of this verdant place, Ye Xia, who was covered in blood, was covered with branches through the abdominal cavity, and countless vines and branches hung her in mid-air, like a hanged body!

With a buzz in Qi Leren’s brain, he stood transfixed and saw the dead body of a person he knew, which was far more shocking than seeing a dead stranger. Especially as, not long ago, they had chatted and talked about the private topic of love. Now, seeing her dead beyond recognition, the incredible shock lingered in his heart.

It turned out that she was really dead.

When listening to Lu Youxin, he still didn’t associate this fact with Ye Xia. It wasn’t until he really saw Ye Xia’s body that he realized that Ye Xia, who was in the same carriage with him at the beginning of the mission, was dead.

Unconsciously, his hands and feet became cold, and Qi Leren took a deep breath several times to calm his mood slightly. Only then did he climb the branches growing out of the cracks, cut the vines and branches, and put down Ye Xia’s body.

Her body was cold and stiff, lying on the ground lifelessly, staring ahead wide eyed in empty horror, and her incredible expression was frozen by death at this moment.

Qi Leren glanced at her waist, her belt and other items had disappeared with her death. Like an ordinary person, she bid farewell to the world in this dangerous underground palace, even knowing who the murderer was.

He couldn’t say he didn’t know who it was either. Although iu Youxin didn’t say who killed Ye Xia, as long as she saw Ye Xia’s body, Qi Leren knew it.

It was Xie Wanwan, the player who could control bugs and plants.

Qi Leren sat beside Ye Xia and thought about it. Ye Xia’s body really didn’t look like she’d just died. The blood had dried and the body was stiff. Even if he doesn’t know anything about autopsies, he also knew that this was by no means the appearance of a newly dead person. However, from leaving the dreamworld just now to discovering Ye Xia’s body, it had taken only half an hour at most. That is to say, the person he met in the instance world was probably not Ye Xia herself. So, who could it be?

It is neither Ye Xia nor Lu Youxin. It is even more impossible for the several NPCs. The only option is Xie Wanwan. Although she had a feud with Ye Xia, she should know something about Ye Xia. It wasn’t a problem to pretend to be Ye Xia for a short time.

What was her motive for doing this? At that time, she could have killed him with one slash of her knife.

Oh, no, at that time, she was also trapped in the dreamworld, and urgently needed to find a way to leave, and he quickly said that he knew the clue, and it was possible that he saved his life. After that, although he had no value, they soon met Ning Zhou…

A feeling of escaping death entered Qi Leren’s heart. If Ning Zhou hadn’t appeared at that time, would he have died?

Recalling how when Ning Zhou went to lure witches, Ye Xia, who wiped the long knife, spoke to him softly and slowly, Qi Leren shuddered. At that time, did “Ye Xia” hold a murderous intent for him who was unarmed and defenseless? If Ning Zhou hadn’t just led the witch back to end the dreamworld, would he have become a cold corpse like Ye Xia?

When he chewed every frame of memory carefully, he whose mind was full of Ning Zhou finally realized this belated fear. Her clasping the handle of the knife, the action of wiping the knife, her strange smile, inexplicable questions, and the murderer that almost pierced his skull under the bed. Everything became eerie and chilling.

It turned out that without realizing it, he had already brushed shoulders with death.
