CHAPTER 20 (2/2)

After players entered the quasi-world, the time flow would follow the quasi-world. If trapped here for a lifetime, it would really feel like a lifetime. This type of thing wasn’t uncommon. There were many players trapped in the quasi-world because they couldn’t complete the task. This lasted until they died.

Xie Xi wasn’t very emotional. He looked at the environment, his brow deeply furrowed.

“Where have all the people gone?” He talked to himself.

Song Qi recovered his spirit and became alert.

Both of them were collectors and their night vision was good. They could see slightly in the darkness.

This was clearly a residential area but it was dead silent. The beautiful two-storey buildings were gloomy and cold, while weeds covered the delicate flowers. Clearly it had been left unattended for a long time.

Song Qi whispered, “The description has a problem. How is this a good fairytale town? Why is it so depressing?” He was a bit terrified and didn’t dare say it was like a haunted house.

Xie Xi whispered, “Follow me.”

Song Qi felt a strong sense of security. “Okay!” He felt that although Xie Xi was smaller than him with a face as tender as a flower, the atmosphere around him made him seem 2.8 metres tall. He was really reliable!

They walked for 10 minutes and saw a brightly lit square.

The two of them stopped at the same time. Song Qi’s eyesight was stronger than Xie Xi and he was shocked by the sight. “There is a person tied up!”

Xie Xi saw many people who should be residents of the town. Most of them were yellow and thin, the hands holding the torches were like yellow-brown branches. They were densely gathered together, giving off a sense of horror.

Xie Xi squinted and barely saw it. “They’re going to burn him?”

Song Qi’s heart sank. “…Burn him to death.” The flames burned and the man’s screams made their scalps numb.

Xie Xi frowned.

At this time, cheers were heard from the crowd. Xie Xi and Song Qi were far away and could only vaguely see, but they could hear it clearly. It was because the villagers shouted too loudly and clearly, as if they had done this countless times.

“Burn him! Burn him!”

“Give him to the dragon!”

“Only he can calm the wrath of the dragon!”

The shouts were like the tide, bringing with it a suffocating sense of oppression.

Song Qi whispered, “They…”

Xie Xi told him, “Go to the rear mountainto see.”

Their task was to collect a dragon heart. There would definitely be a dragon in the rare mountain. Perhaps this dragon brought such disaster to the original fairytale town.

A voice couldn’t help floating in Xie Xi’s heart, ‘Will it be this simple?’

Song Qi exclaimed, “Go, let’s kill the dragon!” This town was too strange and he wanted to finish the task quickly.

The two of them were just about to leave when a sweet laugh was heard behind them.

“Brother Bai Xia.” The 15 or 16 year old girl was thin but had amazing beauty. This made the purple whip mark exposed on her skin even more shocking.

Song Qi was startled by the sight of her.

Xie Xi remembered that the name of his body was Bai Xia.

The girl was so thin she looked like she would be blown away by the wind. She whispered softly, “Brother Bai Xia, I have been waiting for you for a long time. You are finally back… Yunren missed you.”
