Immortal in Horror Game: She is the Fortune Teller!-Chapter 339 - 333: Nightingale and Rose 35
Yuze emerged from the Illusion Realm, looking as if he had just been pulled from the water, his clothes dripping wet.
Josh quickly stepped forward, "Captain, are you alright?"
Yuze suppressed his inner emotions and shook his head hard, flinging off the excess water droplets. "I’m fine."
One by one, the players received their judgments; some emerged joyful, others with faces full of worry.
Xue Guo exited the Illusion Realm, his gaze stuck on Josh, a fervor in his expression.
Sun Qimeng followed closely behind, her eyes falling on Xue Guo. Seeing that he wasn’t looking at her, she lowered her head in disappointment.
The judgment was concluded.
Rose stretched its branches, "I have already found my nightingale."
"Nightingale, oh nightingale, are you willing to use your heart’s blood to warm me, allowing me to bloom the flower of life for you one last time?"
"The day the rose blooms again on the branch will be the day the town’s curse is lifted."
"Nightingale, are you willing to sacrifice your life?"
"To forever stay here with me."
If it were before, Josh would naturally refuse.
But ever since she learned the Rose was replaced by the Mermaid King, she seemed to have nothing left to fear.
"I am willing!" Josh stepped forward.
Her identity was the Nightingale, the one who once betrayed Rose, whose change of heart caused the town to be cursed.
As soon as she stepped forward, the Rose instantly draped its vines, wrapping her entirely.
Josh was lifted, her heart pierced by the thorns of the rose.
A strong light flashed.
[Ding! The town’s curse has finally been lifted. Congratulations to the team Golden Shit Stirrer for completing the main quest!]
Josh saw her settlement screen.
[Ding! Main Quest: Lift the witch’s curse on the town and restore it to normal - completed!

So sudden?
As she exited the dungeon, she suddenly sensed overwhelming killing intent from behind.
She instantly tensed her back and instinctively turned around.
A blue light flashed past, and she couldn’t see anything clearly before being pushed out of the dungeon.
Game logout room.
Ma Qi was already waiting for them.
Josh frowned slightly, at that moment she was sure, there was something in the dungeon that wanted to kill her.
That thing was definitely not the Mermaid King.
So what was it?
A Rose monster?
The Mermaid King forcibly opened a back door for her to clear the dungeon, and the suppressed Rose fought back?
"Josh!" someone beside her raised their voice.
Josh snapped out of it and looked at Ma Qi. "What’s up, coach?"
"Meeting time, let’s go." Ma Qi gathered everyone into the conference room.
Josh nodded and followed the others out.
Upon coming out of the dungeon, Josh always felt a strange feeling when she looked at Yuze.
She wasn’t aware before, so she felt nothing, but after the Mermaid King showed her what Yuze was doing behind her back, her eyes couldn’t help but linger on Yuze, feeling a subtle and bizarre sensation.
It was as if she suddenly knew a hidden secret about Yuze, a secret that happened to be an important medium for drawing the two closer.
Yuze, unable to stand her gaze, his expression darkened. "Is it your first day realizing your captain is this handsome? You stared at me over 40 times in an hour-long meeting."
Yushi, standing beside him, nodded. "The captain said it, minors can’t fall in love, not even the captain!"
Yuze’s expression darkened even more, and he unceremoniously stomped on Yushi’s foot under the table.
Yushi looked at him with grievance, "Captain, why did you step on me?"
Yuze: "..."
Josh awkwardly cleared her throat and shifted her gaze.
Ma Qi, seeing both of them distracted, twitched his lips slightly, "Alright, dismissed, go take a break, it’s almost winter break, I’m not holding you back."
Josh’s eyes lit up, winter break already.
Doesn’t that mean she’ll have lots of time to practice!
She tried hard to suppress the upward curl of her lips.
Ma Qi then said to Yuze, "Since Josh killed some players in the Ancient Castle dungeon but didn’t use her skills and items, teach her. Meeting dismissed!"
Yushi, surprised by the quick meeting, bolted at the words "meeting dismissed."
Ma Qi left with a smile and a tablet.
Only Yuze and Josh were left in the conference room.
Josh blinked, "Captain, what does the coach mean? What skills and items?"
Yuze took her to the game login room, opening her attribute panel and warehouse.

Yuze pointed at her weapon and personal skills section, "Look, you have several weapons in your warehouse that you can equip and use."
Josh opened the warehouse and indeed saw a lot of weapons.
"What’s this?" she asked, bewildered.
Yuze explained, "These are the weapons you obtained after killing players. When they die, their weapons become yours, and their skills are also settled to you."
Josh looked at these dazzling weapons—musical instruments, flower vines, seeds, whips, and more. Clicking on a weapon would show the corresponding skill beside it.
Yuze continued, "As long as you switch to a weapon, you can use it directly, but you can only equip one weapon at a time, so you must be cautious when switching weapons.
Your weapon is of Divine Grade, better in quality than these. In battle, it’s definitely best to use your own weapon, but in other situations, you can occasionally use other types of weapons. Flexibly switching between them can improve efficiency.
The premise is that you can proficiently use all these weapons.
The skills they learned are also directly inherited by you, so you don’t need to study them separately."
Josh nodded in understanding, "I get it."
She thought for a moment, "If that’s the case, when the new year is over and the official competition starts, won’t many people want to kill me to steal my weapons?"
Yuze suddenly remembered what the Mermaid King said in the dungeon, a complicated look crossing his eyes.
What he mentioned was definitely not just that simple.
But Yuze still didn’t know what exactly he was talking about.
He nodded, "Yes, so you must continue to improve your strength."
Josh noticed her spiritual power section, surprised, "When did I become a D grade?"
Yuze: "When the dungeon settlement awarded experience, it also gives spiritual power rewards based on your performance in the dungeon. You were at E+ before, and you probably leveled up to D during the settlement. Clearing dungeons to increase spiritual power level is the best—it’s the least risky and the side effects and pain coefficient are the smallest."
