Twenty minutes until the end of the game.

At this time, no sound of fighting could be heard. The entire orphanage was extremely silent, as if shrouded in a thick aura of death. No one dared to guess how many people were still alive here.

Fifteen minutes until the end of the game.

Two people walked out of the building, breaking the silence that lasted for five minutes. They came to the statue of the dean in the center and stopped moving. Wan Yexi raised her head expressionlessly, as if she was looking at the statue of the dean, or at the countdown on the clock tower; Ying Youyou was next to Wan Yexi, looking around nervously, her face pale with nervousness.

Ten minutes until the end of the game.

Chu Yu came to the statue, kept a polite and safe distance from the two people, then closed her eyes and rested, looking extremely elegant.

Eight minutes left in the game.

Codenamed "Passerby" walked out of the bushes and came to the statue. He was covered in wounds and looked very weak.

Wan Yexi looked at him, then looked down at the half piece of white paper in his hand, then raised his eyebrows in surprise.

Six minutes left to the end of the game.

Another 'passerby' also walked out slowly and came in front of the crowd.

At this time, five people.

The numbers were all there, but they were not right.

Five minutes until the end of the game.

A breeze blew by, and in the blink of an eye, Ye Jiyan leaned under the statue with a contemptuous smile, as if he was the initiator of a new game.

At this time, there are six people.

"Why, why are there six people?" A passerby who originally thought he had won the game suddenly looked unhappy.

"Haha, that's naturally because the beacon someone got hold of... is fake." Even though his clothes were stained red in large areas, it did not affect Ye Jiyan's relaxed aura. He looked at the man playfully and successfully aroused his panic.

Wan Yexi stared at Ye Jiyan coldly from the side without making any move.

He actually let the fake beacon fall into the hands of a sixth person. Now there are two guys codenamed "passerby" at the scene. Who is the real one?

At this time, Chu Yu also opened her eyes and silently sensed the energy fluctuations of each beacon. After a moment, she frowned slightly and looked at Ye Jiyan with scrutiny.

That’s right, the magical fluctuations at the scene... were all mixed together by illusion magic. At this moment, they were like being in a shielded signal field, unable to make correct perception.

The guy who was provoked to panic naturally couldn't judge anything, but he successfully lost his confidence under the indifferent and watching gazes of several people. He was convinced that he had obtained the fake beacon. His eyes kept switching between the other "passerby" and Ying Youyou, as if he was deciding which one to attack.

Ying also felt a strong murderous intent. She was so scared that she hid behind Wan Yexi and prayed in a low voice.

……

As time passed, it seemed as if the bell would ring at any moment, and everyone became increasingly tense.

The other 'passerby' sensed the other party's intention to attack, he gripped his two swords again, and a sharp wind field spread out around his body, as if he was ready to counterattack at any time.

Wan Yexi took one last look at the time on the clock tower and began to count down silently in his heart.

The time is almost up. If it doesn't work, she will do it...

Wan Ye Xi clenched his hands hanging at his sides suddenly, and a flaming sword appeared in his hand.

Her cold eyes surveyed the two of them. To others, her actions seemed like she was protecting Ying Youyou, but in fact, she was just thinking about the order in which the two would die.

……

Time has reached its limit, and the panicked man can no longer bear it. He suddenly rushes towards another person, and when the other person is about to fight back, he suddenly disappears -

Then he instantly appeared behind Ying Youyou!

With everything at stake, the cold blade swung down mercilessly at Hotaru again——!!

"Alas……!"

The next moment, there was the sound of a knife stabbing.

Blood flew everywhere.

Everything returned to silence.

Ying collapsed to the ground again, still a little frightened.

Ivy stepped on the fallen body, pulled out the dagger that was stuck in his neck, and took out the real beacon from his pocket.

No one noticed when she hid and when she appeared. Perhaps she had been waiting on the statue for a long time.

“Sizzle—” The flaming sword pierced another man’s chest. He just tried to take a step towards Ivy, but his life came to an end.

-

"Ding-ding-" The fourth bell rang, announcing the end of the game. It echoed in the silent orphanage for a long time.

The guy pierced by the flaming sword didn't realize until the last moment that he had obtained a fake beacon. The beacon also spontaneously combusted when the bell rang, instantly burning the corpse to ashes.

ended.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Wan Yexi rushed over and hugged Ivy tightly: "It's too late! You showed up too late and made me so worried."

Ying, who was sitting on the ground, couldn't help crying again: "Wow - you saved me again -"

Ivy reached out to comfort Wan Yexi, then stared at Ye Jiyan with resentment: "I want to hurry up, but there's a pervert interfering with my judgment."

It did take a little time to identify the true beacon holder between the two.

"Pervert, are you talking about me?" Ye Jiyan looked like he was watching a show. "Shouldn't you thank me for helping you hide better?"

But the illusion that disrupted the energy fluctuations did make it more difficult to detect Ivy's presence.

"Hehe." Ye Jiyan sneered, and finally couldn't stand the dizziness from excessive blood loss, and lay flat on the ground.

Everyone else was injured to varying degrees, but Chu Yu was the only one who was almost unscathed, with even her hair not messed up. At this moment, she sighed lightly and showed a helpless smile.

……

……

That night, a fire broke out in the orphanage, burning all traces. The five of them were secretly transferred out and received highly effective treatment.

After a good night's rest, they all came to a conference room the next morning.

The healing magic mostly healed their external injuries, but the fight with their companions was still a heavy memory. The room was silent until the door was gently pushed open.

The dean walked in accompanied by two high-level magicians.

"Congratulations on being alive, my children. I'm so happy for you." The dean smiled emotionlessly and clapped his hands gently.

One of the magicians placed a tray on the table with five light blue pills on it.

"This is a poison called Blue Flower. The poisoned person must take the antidote at least once every two months, otherwise the poison will kill him."

poison……

Hearing the words "Blue Flower", Ivy felt her nerves suddenly tense. She was very familiar with this feeling. It was a warning from the future.

The dean glanced at them one by one, and then smiled with satisfaction.

"Eat it, and we will all be companions."
