Immortal in Horror Game: She is the Fortune Teller!-Chapter 305 - 299: Nightingale and Rose 1
After Joyce realized, he couldn’t help but feel a chill down his spine: "What... is going on?"
Ma Qi looked at him: "Have you forgotten what kind of game this is? As the name suggests, this is a God Creation Game, where by having players experience different instances in a short time, under specific circumstances, they hone their mind and abilities. In the end, the one who survives through all the trials will have the chance to become a new god."
"Don’t you think that the path Josh is on is exactly one that leads to becoming a god?
She passively experiences the world’s suffering, the suffering empathetically felt for animals, the oppression of women by feudal concepts, the suffering created by her original family and violent society, the suffering from cyberbullying in school, and the suffering from the pressure of study and exams.
As more and more suffering finds her, her heart will be polished to become more tenacious, powerful, able to perceive all things, understand all things, and protect all things, which is the essence of the Guardian God’s existence."
Joyce was somewhat confused: "Isn’t this exactly what we wanted to see?"
Ma Qi looked at him expressionlessly: "But the Guardian God has already chosen his successor."
Back when Yuze awakened to beastification at eighteen, Chenyu, the leader of the Seven Gods, had already brought down the Divine Light, proclaiming Yuze his appointed successor.
Joyce’s pupils suddenly contracted.
Yes, the god has already chosen his successor, so what about this Josh who emerged halfway?
Competing for the god’s position with the god-appointed successor?
In the Federation World, no one would question the Guardian God’s choice.
But the God Creation Game seems more inclined to nurture Josh into the new Guardian God.
No wonder as Josh enters the instances, more and more bugs appear, especially the latter two instances, which seem to intentionally prevent her from properly concluding, understanding the underlying story settings, or experiencing the sorrows and lives behind those instances.
The Bloody Castle was supposed to be about a father’s excessive control over a child, imprisoning the Prince for life to prevent him from being with the Fisherman’s Daughter, turning him from the most outstanding prince into a mad idiot.
The story’s core is about a father’s control over his child, so strict it’s almost perverse, and even Jiang Can was affected by the instance, unable to untie his heart’s knot.
And the Strange Divine Academy, the story background was supposed to be students driven insane by school pressures and entrance exams, pulling the entire school into a suicide pact.
But in the end, Josh couldn’t fully understand the story behind it, as she was hurriedly interrupted for various reasons and left the instance.
It was as if some force was manipulating things, intentionally preventing Josh from deeply engaging with the instances.
Joyce’s face changed drastically: "Could it be... could it be that you’re overthinking? Maybe Josh just happened to draw these identities; she’s only gone through four or five instances, it’s too early to make conclusions, isn’t it?"
Ma Qi pressed his lips together: "I also thought it might be my misperception. But look, after Josh has experienced the series of instances involving family, friendship, and love for animals, what’s next?"
Both looked at the monitor, where a screenshot of the instance cover, Nightingale and Rose, was prominently displayed.
The nightingale was pierced through the chest by the rose, its blood dyeing the vine red, turning the white rose into a dazzling crimson.
The nightingale’s corpse was stiff beneath the vine, while the rose bloomed radiantly in the first ray of sunlight.
It is a poignant fairy tale passed down from the Ancient Blue Star, telling a profound love story.
Josh’s Identity Card appeared.
The camera on the monitor zoomed in on the card, which depicted a beautiful nightingale.
Ma Qi looked at Joyce: "I hope I’m overthinking."
[In the sunlit town, an affectionate butcher and his wife ran a small shop, the artist was infatuated with his wife, and the innkeeper awaited his wife’s return with hope...
The nightingale sang on the branch, praising love and extolling virtue.
The flower girl shouted, trying to sell the flowers in her basket.
The flowers in the courtyard gradually withered as the cold winter approached.
As dusk fell, the red moon rose.
The butcher repeatedly abused his wife, the artist carefully maintained his wife who had been turned into a living sculpture, and the innkeeper maliciously cursed the wife running a tavern on the corner to die soon...
The nightingale’s ankle was pricked by the thorn of the rose, letting out a painful cry,
The flower girl nourished the flowers with blood and remnants,
Cold winter is approaching, and those unfaithful to love will always face punishment from the rose.]
[Players, please prepare to start the game, countdown one minute, 59, 58, 57... ]
[Ding! Countdown ended, the game officially begins, please take it seriously, and play civilly.]
[Your identity is the cursed nightingale, and every night under the blood moon, you will transform into a maiden, endlessly using songs to water the rose.]
[Your main quest is to break the witch’s curse on the town and restore it to normal.]
Josh obtained the nightingale’s identity card, with Yuze and Yushi also present.
The three were dressed in medieval attire, wearing simple clothes like travelers from a long journey.
She furrowed her brows slightly, wasn’t she supposed to have drawn the nightingale, only transforming into the maiden under the blood moon at night?
What was her current human form about?
Besides the three, there were dozens of other players, all dressed in various outfits, carrying luggage.
It was clear that they were travelers from afar, hoping to settle in the town.
At the town’s entrance, two large mushrooms were on guard.
Yes, two large mushrooms.
The large mushrooms looked at them expressionlessly: "In Rose Town, only lovers are allowed entry."
Yuze hooked his arm around Josh and pulled her into his embrace, lazily lifting his eyes to look at the two mushrooms: "What a coincidence, we happen to be lovers."
Josh smiled gently, her expression very sweet.
Never mind the identity issue, at least let’s get in first.
Beside them, Yushi: "..."
The large mushrooms suspiciously scanned them up and down, "Not sweet enough, you’re lying!"
Yuze: "..."
Josh tugged on his collar, pulling him down to plant a quick kiss on his cheek, looking at the large mushrooms: "Sweet enough now?"
A stiff Yuze: "..."
Yushi, desperately trying to reduce his presence: "0.0"
The frenzied comments: [¥#@...#...#&! @#@!]
[%...#¥! *...%@##!] 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮
The two large mushrooms exchanged a glance and withdrew their weapons: "Confirming a couple, you may proceed!"
The two entered the town, with Yushi quietly following behind, keeping a low profile.
The players behind them, seeing this, also started pretending to be couples, moving forward in groups of two or three.
The large mushrooms: "You’re not a couple, you cannot pass!"
"What do you mean we’re not? Didn’t you see us kissing?"
"You two are both male, it’s impossible to confirm you as a couple!"
"What do you mean both male! In the human world, this is called being gay! Go back to being a mushroom if you don’t understand, country bumpkin!"
The large mushrooms were silent for a moment before silently letting them pass.
Josh looked back curiously, only to meet the eyes of Xue Guo and Turbo who were entering the city gate.
The Turbo trio was present, but Xue Guo’s side had only four people, and Susanna was nowhere to be seen.
When Xue Guo saw her, a strange look flashed in their eyes, and they even gave her a smile.
Josh: "..."
Yuze silently turned her head back: "Why are you looking if you think it’s bad luck, are you an idiot?"
Josh’s face twisted: "Why did he smile at me? I feel traumatized."
Yuze chuckled: "Alright, go back and ask Ma Qi to calculate your work injury compensation."
Yushi appeared beside them, speaking faintly: "Can I claim compensation too? I saw it too."
Yuze’s mouth twitched: "Fine, file everything, satisfied?"
Yushi was satisfied: "Mm~"
