Saving the World in an Apocalypse-Style Text Game-Chapter 685 - 342: Shadowdancer, Test Subject_1
[’Flandre’ is smiling at you, her young and pure voice resonating in the air...]
[You did well, alerting her the moment you found out ’Nightmare Yuri’ wanted to secretly receive her grace...]
[’Flandre’ extends her slender and fair hand, prompting you to hand over the grace.]
[Would you like to hand over the ’Broken Mask of the Divine Kingdom’s Guardian’ (Legend+ level equipment)?]
Lin Xun was taken aback.
Could it be that the caretaker he was possessing was Flandre’s spy placed around Nightmare Yuri?
Without time to think more, the text in front of his eyes turned bright red and started shaking.
He gritted his teeth, looking towards the ’Belatu’s Sting’ in his inventory.
After hesitating for a moment, he chose ’Yes’, suppressing his impulse to fight back.
The ’Belatu’s Sting’ could only instantly kill enemies below the Demigod level. Even though the one-time attack item has way beyond its tier killing prowess, it probably wouldn’t cause much damage to Flandre.
Lin Xun was worried not about failing to confront her directly, but about the fact that after dying and reviving, he would have to face Flandre as if she was a super boss in the Ancient Nest.
Under the current circumstances, he had no choice but to surrender. He hadn’t even had time to warm up his new Legend+ level equipment or even look at its description before being forced to give it up.
[’Flandre’ took the broken mask, then turned to look at ’Nightmare Yuri’, who was still kneeling on one knee...]
[You could clearly see that the formerly all-important ’Nightmare Yuri’ could not lift his head. He watched the ground, drops of cold sweat falling from his forehead, his body trembling slightly.]
[’Flandre’ took light steps forward, lifting her bare foot and brutally crushing the kneeling figure’s head on the fungal carpet.]
[Purple sticky liquid was squeezed out of the fungal carpet, ’Nightmare Yuri’ was covered in blood, breathing heavily, but did not dare to resist even a bit, allowing the girl to trample on his dignity...]
[Her pure voice resonated once again...]
[’Nightmare Yuri’s’ act of betrayal is unforgivable, it should have been severely punished. But Mother taught her to be kind and generous to children.]
[She always kept her mother’s teachings in mind and maintained a loving heart.]
[’Nightmare Yuri’ seemed to be relieved, but saw ’Flandre’ continue to say...]
[But what she hates the most are traitors, it’s very hard for her to pardon traitors so easily.]
[How about this... The storm of Zhongsi City is also a grace given by Mother. Since traitors love grace so much, let them enjoy it in the storm!]
[’Nightmare Yuri’ was terrified and wanted to say something. But before he could open his mouth, you heard the sound of twisted and broken bones.]
[’Flandre’ giving a light kick, ’Nightmare Yuri’s’ head rotated several times on his neck.]
[The formidable vitality of the insect people allowed ’Nightmare Yuri’ to stay alive in such a serious condition.]
[But undoubtedly, it had lost control of its body, the limbs and body were twitching unconsciously, like a struggling maggot.]
[Flandre smiled satisfactorily and turned away, leaving a sentence behind as she left...]
[Throw the traitor into the storm, from now on you will be the administrator of Zhongsi City. After rebuilding the city, she will come to inspect your efforts.]
[’Nightmare Yuri’ was still twitching on the ground. There were two items shimmering with light on the desk.]
[A glass bottle filled with a grey and sticky liquid, and a shiny golden wax seal.]
[You obtained the ’Shadowdancer’s Blending liquid’ (Epic+ Level Item)!] 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖
[You obtained the ’Belatu Mansion’s Wax Seal’ (Special Item)!]
[You hurriedly left the living room and went to the window side in the corridor...]
[In the courtyard of the Inner Castle, the girl was walking lightly, weaving her way through several patrolling guards.]
[The guards seemed to not notice her at all. They were alertly scanning their surroundings during their patrol, and when their eyes swept over the girl, there was no reaction.]
[’Flandre’ suddenly turned her head and looked at you standing by the window. She smiled softly, her figure gradually faded, and she disappeared...]
At this moment, Lin Xun finally relaxed.
Looking back at the plot he just experienced, he felt that this ’Flandre’ seemed to be different from the Flandre in the Ancient Nest.
It was not only a difference in appearance but also a difference in behavior and speech style.
In his opinion, the Flandre of the Ancient Nest was a lonely patient who had been imprisoned for a long time. She could be happy for a long time if someone was there to chat with her.
This fully matched the image of a defeated dog being imprisoned after going against her vows.
But the Flandre that just appeared was like the youngest and most favored daughter of the wet nurse.
Even when ’Nightmare Yuri’ just received the grace given by the wet nurse, Flandre executed him without any hesitation.
"Could it be that the two Flandres are not the same person, are there two Flandres in this world?"
Lin Xun thought about it and finally decided to go to the Ancient Nest to confront the people involved.
But before that, he had to complete Flandre’s task and send Nightmare Yuri to his death.
This way, even if his guess was wrong, Flandre would not execute him who had just completed the task and had proven his loyalty.
[You returned to the living room, and saw ’Nightmare Yuri’ still twitching. He couldn’t speak, but his gaze was full of longing.]
