"Gurgle—gurgle—"
After gulping down two mouthfuls of milk, Tong Tong looked in a certain direction. "It's here..."
Something seemed to writhe within the darkness of the hall. A completely transparent eerie hand flickered through the air, brushing past [Y] before passing over [R] and [B].
All three of them clearly sensed something was wrong.
The transparent eerie hand gradually became visible, pale and crystal-clear. It grabbed a ball of light from each of the three [White Chess Players].
At last, the eerie hand clutched the three light balls and descended onto Zuo Yang's head—
Once the three balls of light reached Zuo Yang's hands, they turned into three rice balls of different colors.
Supporting his aching waist with one hand, Zuo Yang held the three rice balls in the other and spoke to Hao Xiao and the others. "High-grade rice balls!"
"R: first grade."
"B: second grade."
"Y: third grade!"
Having received the information, Tong Tong took a blood-red jade bracelet from her little hand. "Alright, release it!"
The blood-red jade bracelet flashed, and a foul-smelling Eerie Weapon filled the air before her.
"Waaah—waaah—waaah—"
A piercing cry echoed through the hall.
A gigantic gray Eerie Infant appeared, standing as tall as a two-story building. Its eyes were severely ulcerated, and its mouth was horrifyingly grotesque. It had no upper or lower lips, its scarlet gums and flesh turned outward.
This was not a "Dream Core Ghoul," but the Grudge Eerie Tong Tong had contracted herself—[Curse Gu Eerie Infant].
"Something was taken from us..."
[R] checked his body, then opened the Tool Bar, but found nothing unusual.
"It's that [Z]'s 'exclusive talent.' That eerie hand must have done something to us..."
[R] checked the Game Panel again and again, finally discovering the clue... one of his "Authorities" was gone!
The Authority
