95: Chapter 95 The Nun

"You are the one who truly represents evil, Sam Ricardo!"

"Death will come to claim your soul, and demons will devour your flesh!"

"I am the only one willing to accept you. Let's play a game, hehehe!"

A woman's voice suddenly appeared in Chen Mo's mind.

The voice sounded like that of a witch with a hooked nose who would converse with skulls.

His vision spun dizzily, and soon, the scent of lavender flooded his nostrils.

Chen Mo clutched his head, his body collapsing to the ground with a thud.

It plunged him into a deep sleep.

When he woke up again, he saw Anna Catherine appearing before him.

She was kneeling on the ground, covering her eyes, groaning softly.

Chen Mo pressed down on her shoulders and asked, "What's wrong?"

Anna Catherine looked up and said, "Sam, Pete and Alice have disappeared. They are the embryos of demons."

"They must be sacrificed to the demons, and only then can your sins be purged."

"You are Vincent, and you are also Amy Seeger. You killed us once before."

Upon hearing this, Chen Mo realized that Anna's memories had been tampered with.

NPCs could have their memories modified at will by the Thriller Game, but Chen Mo would not be affected.

"Did you see who took the children away?"

Anna Catherine shook her head, simply repeating one name.

"Mother Goddess of Night!"

[Mr. Rabbit: It's a bit strange. Suddenly falling into a situation without any objectives—how is a player supposed to act?]

[Sunny Turns Cloudy: The unlocking of the hidden worldview is related to the Mother Goddess of Night. Bah!]

[Sunny Turns Cloudy: Retracted a message.]

[Vice Group Leader: Sunny Turns Cloudy, it's a good thing you retracted that quickly. Otherwise, if you were glanced at by a Great One, you would have turned into a madman.]

[Vice Group Leader: Reminding the probationary Administrators again: discussing those mysterious Great Ones is prohibited in the group. In any case, do not mention names that sound high-status. If you actually get killed, you're on your own.]

[Disturbing the Moon: Many Children Many Blessings, you should exit the game early. There isn't much time left—only 30 minutes remaining. If you don't exit within 30 minutes, you will die!]

[Lao Ba: Many Children Many Blessings, hang in there! I really don't want to lose an arm!]

[Lao Liu: Hehehe! I've already started sharpening my blade, Lao Ba.]

"Only 30 minutes left, huh."

Seeing the messages in the Management Group, Chen Mo calmed his emotions.

It didn't matter; there were still 29 minutes and 59 seconds left. Before that, there was still a chance to obtain an S-rank rating.

If he still couldn't solve it by the last 10 seconds, he would voluntarily exit.

Opening the system, clicking the exit option, plus the game loading time, it would take about 8 seconds—he could definitely retreat safely.

Chen Mo first organized his plan for survival in his mind.

Then, he wandered around the courtyard, searching for clues.

Anna Catherine's Sanity Value began to drop again; she just knelt before the tombstones, groaning incessantly.

His wife had already begun to transform into a madwoman.

"This dungeon has a tried-and-true trope: the answer is right in front of you, yet you look far away."

Making the player fall into a state of panic so that even with a coin, they don't know how to use it.

Encountering the largest mirror, yet automatically ignoring it to go look for the 'real' mirror.

"Therefore, Pete and Alice must be in this Villa."

"Vincent's Rule-type item has already been destroyed by me, so it's impossible for them to be in the Mirror World."

10 minutes later, Chen Mo had circled the Villa several times.

Finally, he stopped at those tombstones in the pits.

"Underground? There is still one place in the Villa I haven't been to: the underground."

Chen Mo waved his hand, Threading the Needle wrapped around his little finger, and quickly pierced into the ground.

It penetrated through the loose soil layer until it poked through into a cave in some underground world.

At this point, the steel wire met no resistance, proving that the area was completely hollow.

"Found it!"

The underground world.

The hooked-nose figure held two bottles of green solution and placed them on the long table in front of it.

The solution seemed like a living organism, still bubbling continuously.

It chuckled deviously, looking at the steel wire that had appeared before its eyes.

"Hehehe, finally noticed, have you?"

"As expected of the talent favored by the Mother Goddess of Night."

The hooked-nose figure shifted its gaze to the wall on the side.

On the wall, Alice and Pete were being held in the embrace of two skulls, with sharp bone blades pressed against their necks.

They were not allowed to make a sound.

Chen Mo started running; there definitely wouldn't be enough time to dig it open with a shovel.

So he came to the crooked tree in the courtyard.

That was the source of the lavender scent.

Arriving at the back of the crooked tree, a tree hole only large enough for one person to pass through appeared before Chen Mo's eyes.

After poking his head in, following the depths of the endless tree hole space, Chen Mo saw a glowing point of light.

"Crawl in!"

Chen Mo gripped the edge of the tree hole, thrust his head into the darkness first, and then climbed his whole body inside.

The inside of the tree hole was as smooth as ice, just like riding a slide.

Chen Mo wrapped his arms around his head, his body traveling freely through the winding space.

A "hissing" friction sound came; the speed was too fast, causing his buttocks to almost spark from the friction.

His vision shifted from black to white; he had successfully entered the underground world.

Chen Mo balanced himself in the air and landed on the ground.

"You've finally arrived, Mr. Many Children Many Blessings."

That evil voice came from the opposite side, matching perfectly with what was in Chen Mo's mind.

Chen Mo raised his head and stared at the woman opposite him.

Standing opposite him was a nun draped in a black robe, wearing a white wimple.

The hem of the black robe was long, reaching all the way to her ankles.

However, her appearance didn't match at all with the films Chen Mo had seen.

In Chen Mo's impression, a nun should have a fair, pure face with pious, clear eyes.

Making one feel very holy upon seeing her.

The woman before him was more like a witch wearing a nun's habit.

The nun smiled, raised her arms, and clapped.

Two skeleton soldiers drilled out from the ground, clutching Alice and Pete in their arms, and let out a simultaneous devious chuckle.

They stared at Chen Mo with eyes full of mockery.

The two children dared not move at all, only looking at Chen Mo with teary eyes.

Revealing pitiful little expressions.

"Mr. Many Children Many Blessings, come play a game with me. I have two bottles of magic solution in my hands."

"After drinking one bottle, one will die instantly."

"The other bottle is a normal magic solution; after drinking it, one can replenish Sanity Value."

"You have three choices."

[1. You drink one bottle yourself, and give one to your son.]

[2. You drink one bottle yourself, and give one to your daughter.]

[3. Or, you can give both bottles to your son and daughter to drink.]

"This is a game of pure luck. You are a player from a high dimension; I believe you will definitely choose the third option."

"You are a rational person. These two children in front of you are just NPCs. As long as you give them both to drink, you won't bear any risk yourself."

"Don't expect to be able to kill me. I am an Elemental Mage, a Level 25 Elemental Mage!" the nun sneered.
