I Play the Horror World as a Simulation Game-Chapter 237: Truly play the role, you must recognize reality!

Gulp!

As the sound of swallowing echoed, Xiao Liu's expression of satisfaction appeared on the back of his head: "Can I digest it?"

"This isn't for you to eat." Xiao Liu put away his panic and said with a faint smile.

Qin Nuo collapsed to the ground, somewhat unresponsive.

The scene fell silent for a moment, and Evil Dream suddenly vanished from where it stood, reappearing beside Qin Nuo, placing a pale little hand on the chest where red veins spread.

A layer of blood-colored runes rippled, and with a slight lift of the hand, a mass of sinister black blood was extracted.

With a gentle pinch, the black blood exploded into a cloud of blood mist, and a blood paper figure appeared in the palm.

The blood paper figure did not flee in panic but stood quietly in the palm.

Evil Dream gazed at it, smiling slightly: "It's a good thing."

"Now I am your master, any objections? If you do, I'll crush you and discard you."

The blood paper figure glowed with a bloody light, conveying some message.

Evil Dream's eyes showed satisfaction, clearly indicating the blood paper figure had submitted, but then she seemed to discover something, and her delicate face turned a bit strange...

Glancing at his restored chest, Qin Nuo pondered and looked at Xiao Liu.

Xiao Liu got up, and as his clothes shifted, the paper figure slipped out, falling to the ground and turning to ashes.

Seeing Qin Nuo's gaze, Xiao Liu scratched his head and laughed dryly: "That was really thrilling just now, I almost thought I was done for!"

"Yeah, it was indeed very thrilling."

Qin Nuo removed his already torn clothes and looked at Xiao Liu: "After all, Atu would never have thought that a security guard who seemed cowardly from start to finish was the biggest threat."

Atu's defenses were mostly focused on Evil Dream, and Qin Nuo also kept some defenses, while Xiao Liu, in his eyes, was just a tool.

In the end, Xiao Liu's superb acting fooled everyone.

"Playing the fool to catch the tiger, that's not popular anymore, Mr. Shi Yu." Qin Nuo's eyes flickered.

Xiao Liu spread his hands: "How can you be sure I'm that person?"

"Besides him, I can't think of anyone else."

Qin Nuo's expression was a bit helpless: "The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind; your move is quite impressive."

"You let me tackle the main storyline, complete three role plays on your own, then as a free agent, play a role that could interact with me and connect to the main storyline, fooling everyone, and finally stage a counter-kill."

"Both the strategy and acting are top-notch."

Qin Nuo felt mentally and physically exhausted; he never expected to end up as a mere worker.

Thinking back, Shi Yu's repeated help on the main storyline might have been brewing this long-term plan.

Helping others climb the tree, letting them pick the fruit, and then snatching it away when they come down!

Cunning?

Not really, because his mind was indeed superior!

So, Qin Nuo accepted it, after all, without Shi Yu, he might have been in danger too!

On the side, Evil Dream put away the blood paper figure, understanding the situation from the conversation, and looked at Xiao Liu with cold eyes: "Just snatch it back."

Sensing Evil Dream's hostility, the ghost on Shi Yu's back also emitted ghost aura, speaking from behind: "A deadly ghost... not easy to mess with."

"Though not exactly afraid, you should weigh your options!"

Shi Yu, however, showed great apprehension towards Evil Dream, smiling nervously: "Little sister, calm down, we're on the same side."

Then, Shi Yu said to his contract ghost: "Spit it out."

The ghost on the back of his head was somewhat displeased: "I don't have to return it; I could still handle this little girl a bit."

"Return what belongs to others." Shi Yu said again, his smile widening.

The ghost on the back of his head paused, opened its blood-red mouth, and spat out a mass of black blood.

Atu lay in the pool of blood, getting up, and although his face was already pale, the terror and confusion were clear to see.

Even now, he still hadn't figured out the situation or what had happened.

Shi Yu, with his hands in the security guard's pockets, looked at Qin Nuo: "Returned it to you. This instance has been played long enough; it's time to end it."

Qin Nuo looked at him: "I don't quite understand."

Shi Yu's series of actions left people unable to comprehend what he was thinking.

Clearly, he could have eliminated Atu, ended this instance, and claimed the MVP of the entire game!

Yet he returned the fruits of victory to Qin Nuo?

"You can consider me here for fun."

"No matter what, a horror game is just a game. I came in with a small goal, but it's already accomplished."

"I don't care much about rewards or ratings. After completing the three roles, I thought of exiting, but staying as a free agent to seek some thrill."

Shi Yu pulled out a pair of glasses from somewhere, put them on, and said: "As expected, being around the Phantom Master is indeed thrilling."

"This instance's core is acting. After experiencing three roles, I'm curious if my acting has improved. Using Xiao Liu's role, how about the Phantom gives a rating?"

Though Shi Yu wore a playful smile, in Qin Nuo's eyes, it was like sinking into an abyss, completely unreadable.

Who knows if this face of his now is also an act?

"Perfect."

"Such a rating is quite flattering." Shi Yu laughed.

On the ground, Atu finally came to his senses, suddenly touching himself as if he had lost something important, his face full of panic: "Where, where is it?"

Then, he saw the blood paper figure on Evil Dream's shoulder and hurriedly ordered: "Kill them, then imprison their souls, I want to torment them slowly!"

The blood paper figure moved slightly.

Atu's face showed a hint of daze: "Are you joking? I am your master! You won't listen to me?"

"Should I say you're naive or just too stupid?"

"Master? That's just what you think. You've been led by the nose all along. Now that your value is gone, you still want to command it?"

Evil Dream looked at Atu indifferently: "This cursed ghost creature is far more intelligent than you. It only valued your bit of resentment."

Her purple eyes glanced at the blood paper figure on her shoulder: "Only a stronger existence can control such a cursed ghost creature, like me."

The blood paper figure waved its hands as if expressing loyalty.

Atu's face turned ashen, shaking his head.

"No, I am the principal of Black Crow Ghost School. Everyone here must listen to me. Only I have the right to dictate your fates..."

Shi Yu looked at his state, mocking: "Why do villains always end up acting crazy? Can't they just accept reality?"

Atu glared at Shi Yu, his eyes bloodshot: "What, you think I'm the bad guy?"

"Clearly, I'm the victim! Cold stares, mockery, exclusion, ridicule, are those people who treated me like that innocent?"

"In this world, many things aren't about right or wrong. They're not good people, and you're not a bad person, but everything needs a balance and order."

"Your actions have long worn away your hatred. Now, you just enjoy being a king, thinking everyone is your toy to play with."

Qin Nuo looked at Atu expressionlessly, his right hand open, revealing a golden mark in his palm!

Atu looked at the mark, suddenly gritting his teeth, eyes fierce: "Bullshit philosophy, I refuse to accept fate..."

Before he could finish, Qin Nuo suddenly appeared in front of him, pressing the Overturning Curse Seal on Atu's forehead, calmly saying: "Refusing fate is right, but you must accept reality."

"This game, you lost!"

As the words fell, the Overturning Curse Seal burst into a brilliant golden light, golden threads swirling out, densely wrapping around Atu's body...
