The full harem escape game

Chapter 572
Xia Qingyang stared blankly at Haocheng Tiandi who was calmly pouring a new cup of tea at the table.

Emperor Haocheng smiled slightly, and shook his head to signal her to keep quiet.

When the outside completely stopped, Emperor Haocheng signaled her to come over and sit opposite him.

"How do you feel about this duel? Have you adjusted your sword skills?"

Emperor Haocheng was still the Emperor Haocheng that Xia Qingyang was familiar with.

gentle, calm.

His calmness made Xia Qingyang not know how to speak, what to say.

Emperor Haocheng didn't mind her silence. After putting the tea in her hand, he filled the cup for himself: "This kind of thing, as long as you stay in this magic tower, it will happen sooner or later. Whether you are alone or a demon , are already prepared.”

"Can I just accept it? Is there no way to change it?"

"Well, there's no way."

Emperor Haocheng glanced at Xia Qingyang's tightly clenched fists, "Don't be so angry. I have been fighting with monsters for half my life. If it wasn't for the magic tower to lock us in, this victory or defeat would not have been delayed until now... Go all out That is, as for who can survive, it all depends on their own abilities."

"..."

"Looking at your expression, it seems that you have thought of something." Emperor Haocheng caught a glimpse of Xia Qingyang's expression change from the corner of his eye, "Why, is Gu's words wrong?"

"Go all out, each according to his ability." Xia Qingyang closed his eyes and let go of his fist, "Although we say so, the one who survived will still feel remorse and pain, how can this be avoided..."

At the end of Xia Qingyang's words, he had already pronounced his words very lightly, as if he was talking to himself.

Emperor Haocheng looked at her for a few breaths, then sighed softly: "It seems that you have also experienced some similar things."

"Girl." Daojun called Xia Qingyang worriedly, "That's not your fault."

Xia Qingyang couldn't hear anything at this time, her eyes were full of scenes like a movie replay——

The blood-stained tip pierced into the chest of the opposite person trembling slightly.The warm blood splashed all over her clothes, sleeves, and onto her face, and it couldn't be washed off.

There were dead bodies lying all around.

They were all facing in her direction.

And what kind of expression is that person on the other side?

……

Xia Qingyang opened his eyes suddenly, his palms were covered with cold sweat.

Suddenly, she felt something touch her finger.Looking down, it was the cup handed over by Emperor Haocheng.

She thought it was tea, so she took it up and drank it, but it turned out to be wine.

"Cough cough cough..."

"Drink slowly." Emperor Haocheng couldn't bear to say, "This is the only bottle left, and it will hurt to waste a little."

"sorry."

Xia Qingyang coughed up some tears, covered his mouth and asked, "But, is this the same bottle as last time?"

"Yes."

"Then why does it taste different..."

She remembered that when she drank it last time, she only felt that it was refreshing and delicious, and there was also an unstoppable fragrance.

And Emperor Haocheng seemed to have expected this, and asked her what it tasted like this time.

"Spicy." It was so hot that she wanted to cry even now, "There is also bitterness and astringency."

"Well, that's it." Haocheng Tiandi smiled, "The characteristic of this kind of wine is that it can taste people's hearts. How do you feel in your heart at the moment, the taste of this wine will be in your mouth."

Xia Qingyang was stunned.

So the previous time, it was because she created the first knife technique and felt at ease. When drinking this wine, she felt that it had a pleasant fragrance. Is it the best wine in the world?

"Then what does Senior Haocheng taste like when he drinks it?"

"..."

Emperor Haocheng did not answer this question.

He poured himself another cup and asked her what she had experienced before.

Xia Qingyang fell silent, holding his small wine glass in both hands, and said after a while:
"I killed my friend."
-
This is Xia Qingyang's experience in a previous SSS level dungeon.

Regarding the background factors of the game, it is inconvenient for Emperor Haocheng to explain too clearly.

But the situation at that time was actually no different from what it is now.So she only needs to describe it in a slightly different way, and it is not difficult for Emperor Haocheng to understand what happened.

In that copy, players temporarily formed teams according to the rules and started battles with other teams.

During the long and difficult mission, Xia Qingyang's team went from being suspicious of each other, to knowing the truth, to trusting each other, and gradually established a friendship that entrusted their backs to each other.

They even agreed to drink together after leaving the dungeon, and introduce each other to good friends.

However, at the end of the copy, the game released the last task.

Let them kill each other.

In the end only one survived.

"So, you have to kill your companions in exchange for your own life."

Xia Qingyang couldn't tell the ending, Emperor Haocheng told it for her.

Xia Qingyang didn't make a sound.

At this time, it was rare for her to sit or not, her whole body was almost slumped on her legs, holding her forehead.

She knows, it's live now.I know that in order to be that spiritual pillar, I shouldn't be like this.

But when almost the same scene appeared in front of her again, she really couldn't remain indifferent.

Two years ago, she heard Emperor Haocheng tell the story of Kevin and the knight.

She knew Kevin's grief hidden under his calm.Because she also walked exactly the same way.That sense of powerlessness and guilt cannot be resolved by saying "it's not your fault".

She is not a god, and it is impossible for her to deftly resolve the deadlock forever, so that everyone can have a happy ending and live happily.

The living will be tortured by guilt, and will wake up in tears when they dream back in the middle of the night.

That's because they all remember.

Now she can fully understand why Gu Sinan said that he has changed a lot.I also understand why Meng Xing wants to cut off all human relations and make himself an isolated island.

It is not the years that weigh on them.

is a painful memory.

Now, here we go again.

Although she was not the one who experienced it personally this time, both the Heavenly Emperor and the Demon Lord were her teachers and friends, but she couldn't do anything and could only helplessly accept the coming reality.

This lingering pain is exactly the same as before.

But she also knew that she couldn't express these emotions.

At least not in front of Emperor Haocheng.

"Heh... Speaking of this, sometimes I envy you all."

Hearing the laughter, Xia Qingyang's shoulders moved slightly, and he slowly raised his head, looking at Emperor Haocheng who said this.

envious?

"Because you can taste the bitterness of this wine." Emperor Haocheng smiled at her.The sun has completely set, and the world has returned to silence and darkness without knowing when.

There was no light in the room.Only the quiet moonlight spilled into the window lattice, illuminating the profiles of the two of them.

"Didn't you just ask Gu, how does Gu taste this wine? In fact, there has always been only one taste."

The real name of Emperor Haocheng is Emperor Jinque Wuwu Mila Wuyou.

Being free from arrogance and worry-free is the blessing he has brought with him since he was born.

Therefore, he was born unable to feel pain and obsession.

So back then in Lingxiao Palace, Ying Luo Mozun killed him and asked him with blood and tears why he killed his parents and teachers.He was also able to calm down, and even told Demon King Yingluo with a slight smile on his face, because you are the way of the devil, which is inherently opposed to the way of righteousness.

So even at this moment, when he tastes this wine, it is as sweet as it is pleasant.
