Daring! She cheated in the thriller game
Chapter 201 Sudden Changes
The two players quickly burned the cocoon fragments, and when the villagers saw the familiar people standing in front of them alive, they were speechless and looked at Yu Lan and Li Shixi in silence.
"Those of you who have found your family should go back and take care of them. Don't get in the way here." A Qiao said coldly. Although he didn't know why Yu Lan still wanted to save such a person, he didn't look very happy at this time.
The villagers were silent. Those who found their families cried quietly, while those who did not find their families stood there with red eyes, but said nothing more.
Seeing that they would not come to cause trouble, A Qiao did not say anything more and stood aside waiting for Yu Lan's instructions.
They kept repeating the same movements. Li Shixi was fine, after all, he didn't have to exert much effort. But Yu Lan was exhausted. After all, she absorbed a lot of the surrounding spiritual energy and converted it into her own mana, which was then absorbed away in large quantities. She was always tense, which was more tiring than fighting.
"Ms. Yu, are you okay?"
Alvin also knew how hard Yulan was working, so he took every opportunity to feed her water mixed with holy spring water to make her feel less uncomfortable.
"Not bad." Yu Lan sat on the ground and took a breath. "Next is the last batch, and it's also the most difficult one."
The people in this batch of cocoons are successfully transformed puppets, and they are more difficult to deal with than those failed puppets, and there is also a...
"It's hard to say about the pregnant one." Li Shixi walked over to Yu Lan and sat down, saying in a muffled voice, "Although she was a puppet that failed to transform, the baby in her belly was completely turned into a pool of blood."
When this topic was mentioned, Yu Lan was also a little unhappy. The pregnant woman was Victoria. She was obviously looking forward to the birth of the baby in her belly, but now...
"Try your best and save the person first. You can get pregnant anytime."
Li Shixi nodded silently. Even he would not harm a pregnant woman. He did not expect that Prince Linton would not care about these.
"By the way." Li Shixi took the water handed over by A Qiao and said casually: "I also saw some interesting things, do you want to know?"
This was said to the players present. Yu Lan noticed something was wrong: "Is it related to the plot?"
"Yeah." Li Shixi nodded: "Do you want to listen?"
Yu Lan looked at A Qiao and Arthur, both of them looked expectant. It was one thing to defeat the boss, but the more they knew about the story line, the more points they would get. Of course, they would not miss this opportunity.
Seeing this, Li Shixi did not keep the person in suspense, and slowly told the story of many years ago in a gloomy and low voice.
Several decades ago, there were two princes in the Kingdom of Kane. The eldest prince was lively by nature and did not like to study, but was very curious about magic.
Although magic exists in this world, the king at that time was very resistant to it because the magician's beliefs conflicted with the king's beliefs. From then on, magic was regarded as witchcraft.
In this situation, the eldest prince still went his own way and secretly studied magic. He even went to extremes and became fascinated with the black magic that even magicians avoided. His personality changed drastically from then on.
A few years later, the second prince's wife gave birth to a child. At that time, the eldest prince was traveling all day, and the king felt that the second prince, who had an heir, was more suitable to be the king, so the position of the king's heir was determined. The eldest prince was not convinced when he heard the news. Although he liked to study magic, it did not mean that he could tolerate his throne being handed over to his younger brother.
He returned to the imperial city angrily, but changed his mind when he saw the second prince's child.
He calmed down and began to fulfill his duties as a prince, no longer leaving the imperial city all day. At the same time, the king's health gradually deteriorated, and the second prince's child gradually grew up.
The eldest prince thought that he had acted well enough in the past few years and that when the old king died, he should leave the throne to him as the eldest prince. However, he did not expect that the old king would still give the throne to his younger brother.
This made the eldest prince very angry, and after the second prince ascended the throne, he stopped pretending. He began to roam the black market, secretly buying things that could satisfy his desires. For some reason, many of the things he bought were for very young children.
He used those children as materials for practicing black magic, and wanted to make them into living, obedient puppets. But things went against his wishes, and the puppets he made did not meet his requirements.
At this point, Li Shixi paused and said, "At this time, he met a magician. The magician handed him a scroll that recorded how to turn people into obedient puppets."
The formation recorded on the scroll was self-explanatory. Yu Lan nodded secretly in understanding.
The eldest prince was overjoyed when he got the scroll, but the failure rate of making the puppet was too high, and the children he bought were not enough, so he ordered to kidnap them. The large number of children kidnapped in the city attracted the attention of the king, and he soon found out that it was his brother.
The king was furious and ordered the arrest of the eldest prince. The eldest prince used black magic to escape and even kidnapped the king's only child while escaping.
At this point, Li Shixi took a breath and looked at Yu Lan meaningfully: "Do you know what happened to the child next?"
"I was captured, poisoned and silenced, and after escaping, I was picked up by someone. After living for a few years, I killed the eldest prince." Yu Lan stretched out her fingers to count, and said boredly: "I knew it, that Prince Linton seemed to have known me for a long time."
From what he said, it can be seen that Prince Linton knew her parents and seemed to hate them very much. In addition to his identity as a "prince", there is no need to guess Yu Lan's identity.
"Oh my god." Arthur took a breath and looked at Yu Lan in disbelief: "So you are the princess of this country?"
"Is that so?" Yu Lan held her chin in her hand in boredom. What did it have to do with her whether it was or not? Anyway, this unit story was about to end.
"Haha." Li Shixi laughed coldly twice and continued, "Now few of the king's children can survive because Prince Linton cursed them. He hates his brother's first child and thinks that he couldn't inherit the throne because he had no children. That's why he wants to make that child into his own doll and then show it off in front of the king."
Li Shixi didn't quite understand Prince Linton's way of thinking. Even if he had no children, the throne would still not be his.
"Maybe he thought that if he had that child, his brother would give him the throne."
Yu Lan stood up and clapped her hands, ending the topic: "Okay, time is running out, let's finish this batch quickly and leave."
It was already night, the sky was as black as ink, and dark clouds covered the moon, which made Yu Lan feel a little uneasy.
Soon, this uneasiness became a reality.
When Li Shixi was halfway through casting the spell, the cocoon wrapped around Victoria was suddenly torn open from the inside, and a huge spider with more than a dozen legs, a huge abdomen, and sixteen pairs of compound eyes rushed out of the cocoon and ran towards Yulan at an extremely fast speed.
Yu Lan cannot easily leave the formation under her feet at this time, otherwise Li Shixi will be implicated. Not only will the two of them be injured, but even the people in the cocoons will die.
"Stop it!" Yu Lan shouted angrily, and countless hair flew up from behind Yu Lan and tightly wrapped around the legs of the strange spider.
Mei Qimeng cannot show up now, so the only thing she can do is to release her hair from the mirror and use it to corrode the spider's legs.
But unexpectedly, the spider was not afraid of Mei Qimeng's hair. It even roared and started eating Mei Qimeng's hair.
[Hmm.] Mei Qimeng cried out in pain. Her hair was made of her Yin energy, and it couldn't be replaced after it was eaten: [Xiao Yu, how long will it take you?]
[Wait for my order, then you can let go of your hair.] Yu Lan frowned and ordered, and Mei Qimeng responded in a low voice.
"Ms. Yu, do you need help?" Erwin asked nervously, holding a cane in his hand.
When the giant spider came out, A'jo and Arthur began to take the villagers away from here and protect them. Li Shixi couldn't leave for the time being, and Erwin was the only one free.
"Don't make any move yet." Yu Lan said with a frown. If Erwin made a move, it would definitely attract the attention of the person behind the scenes. In order not to expose him, Erwin could not make any move unless it was absolutely necessary.
Li Shixi and Yu Lan recognized the spider as soon as it came out. It was a poisonous insect created by evil magic, born from the resentment of a pregnant woman and the child in her arms. After breaking out of the cocoon, it would eat all living things and negative energy around it, and it especially liked to eat children.
So among so many people present, the spider's primary target was Yu Lan.
Mei Qimeng's hair couldn't be delayed for long. The spider ate everything and was not afraid of Mei Qimeng's powerful resentment at all, which would even increase its strength.
Seeing this, Yu Lan had no time to think about it. She made a gesture with one hand and took out a talisman with the other, staring at the spider closely, trying to find its flaw.
She said that the talisman she used was extremely harmful to evil things, and was the most suitable for dealing with this spider. But unfortunately Li Shixi was also a ghost, and the cocoons next to him could also be considered evil things. If she hit the wrong place, she might hurt her own people.
[Xiao Yu, I can't hold on any longer.] Mei Qimeng said while gritting her teeth. She hadn't completely absorbed Yu Lan's blood yet, and her current strength was even weaker than before the upgrade. She wouldn't be able to hold on for much longer if this continued.
[Let go.] Yu Lan sighed softly, and threw a few talismans at the moment when Mei Qimeng pulled her hair back. The talisman paper instantly ignited when it touched the spider, and gradually spread into a line of fire, surrounding the spider layer by layer, not letting it move even a little bit.
"Can't it be killed?" Erwin asked doubtfully. With Yu Lan's strength, she should be able to kill the spider.
Yu Lan shook her head helplessly: "It can't be killed. If it dies, the resentment in its body will quickly possess everything around it, and then mutate those things. No matter whether it is a living thing or a dead thing, anyone who touches it will be cursed."
This kind of rogue method sounds familiar, right? Yes, it’s an old acquaintance - that damn unknown Huang family member seemed to have expected that someone would ruin his plan, and deliberately put such a disgusting thing here.
Although things possessed by resentment can be removed, it would be a big undertaking. Yu Lan cannot do this given her current physical condition. Now she can only fight with the spider for now.
The spider was surrounded by layers of fire and couldn't leave. Seeing this, it roared at Yu Lan, its abdomen began to wriggle, and then it opened its mouth wide.
"Hiss——" Yu Lan took a breath, and saw a hand suddenly stretched out from the spider's mouthparts. A long-haired woman crawled out slowly and stiffly, then raised her head and gave Yu Lan a weird smile.
That woman was Victoria.
"Victoria" smiled strangely, and then a painful expression appeared on her face. She wailed and reached out to Yu Lan, calling for help loudly: "Xiao Yu, help me."
"Xiao Yu, save me...save my child..."
"Xiao Yu..."
The woman's wails echoed in the night sky. Some curious villagers came out to take a look, and saw that their familiar relatives and friends were half stuck in the spider's mouth, while the mute Yu Lan stood aside, watching coldly, with no intention of helping.
Erwin frowned and asked quietly, "What's going on?"
He noticed that this woman no longer had the breath of a living person, but her voice and appearance were no different from the original person. Could it be that this spider could use mimicry to attract others?
"It's mimicry, don't worry about it." Yu Lan replied. It was the first time she encountered this kind of spider. She had only seen it in books before.
This kind of spider is afraid of the fire ignited by spiritual energy, but this fire will not last long, and the spider will quickly absorb the spiritual energy and then continue to eat people.
There is a way to deal with it, but she has to wait until Li Shixi is done. All her spiritual power is now used on him, and she is simply too busy to deal with this spider.
"Victoria" was still wailing in pain. She wanted to reach out and pull Yu Lan into her mouth, but her hand could not get past the circle of fire.
At this moment, a figure suddenly rushed over. The man held a hoe in his hand and smashed it on the spider through the gap in the fire circle: "Damn spider, let go!"
"Damn!" Yu Lan was unable to react for a moment. When she came to her senses, "Victoria" had already grinned grimly, and several pairs of arms appeared behind her, grabbing the hoe and dragging her into the circle of fire.
It can't get out of the fire circle, but that doesn't mean people can't come in.
When the villager saw Victoria's ferocious smile and the countless arms behind her, he knew he had been reckless. He screamed and struggled, looking at Yu Lan pleadingly, hoping that she could save him.
"Fuck." Yu Lan cursed inwardly. This guy was such a fool. If she had known earlier, she would have let those two players tie up all the people.
