Hero Appears: Eternal Day!
Meanwhile, on the other side...
After everyone was drawn into Golis's resentment, their faces turned gloomy and serious.
This is clearly a terrifying control-type [Birth] artifact, capable of controlling so many people simultaneously, demonstrating its power. Based on this, it must at least be a Discarded Divine Artifact!
Fortunately, this Discarded Divine Artifact only controlled the player and did not cause any harm, so these Peak Player did not panic to the point of sweating profusely.
This situation might be terrifying for ordinary people, but for these elites, solving problems is commonplace.
Right now, every Peak Player trapped is cautiously searching for a way to escape.
This predicament is simply tainted by the unpleasant atmosphere of "Birth," but for survival, nothing is unbearable.
Moreover, during their breaks, each of them would ponder where Zhen Yi had found such a high-level Discarded Divine Artifact, and whether the relationship between [Deception] and [Birth] had Change again.
But...
Whether Zhen Yi possesses Discarded Divine Artifact of this caliber might be unknown to others, but Zhen Xin certainly does.
She hadn't expected Cheng Shi to have such strength, capable of wiping out all the players present.
To be honest, Peak Player do have wide-range control items, but few dare to directly attack others with them, since these items can easily attract a group attack if not handled properly.
On the contrary, Zhen Xin Zhen Yi deliberately looked for props that could provoke a group of people at once in order to keep her younger sister from causing trouble. But she never expected that "Zhen Yi" would find them on her own!
But this "Zhen Yi" is not the same as that Zhen Yi!
This Cheng Shi, using his sister's name, has gotten himself into a huge mess!
She felt she had already taken this Deception colleague seriously enough, but he still gave her such a big "surprise".
Of course, the real "surprise" didn't come from Cheng Shi, but from her own sister Zhen Yi!
Because of a brief emotional turmoil while being dragged into Golis's resentment, Zhen Yi, whom Golis had personally sent back to sleep, suddenly seized a window of opportunity to retaliate against her sister. So, just as Zhen Xin sank into this dark quagmire, Zhen Yi...
I'm awake.
She laughed and sent her sister back, then began to tackle the problem that Cheng Xiaoshi had presented to her.
The riddle of "Birth" naturally requires the key of "Birth," and the extremely clever Zhen Yi immediately thought of the whistle that Cheng Xiaoshi had "returned" to her.
Nightfall Spring Whistle.
She had seen this whistle before. From its appearance, it was just an ordinary Nightfall Spring Whistle, and the shapes of these whistles were all very similar, so it was hard to say whether this was the one Hu Xuan had given to Cheng Shi.
Zhen Yi was a clever little devil. She never thought that Cheng Shi would be willing to give her a real whistle. Of course, she also didn't think that Cheng Xiaoshi was a fool who would use Sacrifice to the Void to casually make up a whistle to appease her.
Therefore, she thought it was just an ordinary whistle, which Cheng Shi had prepared to deal with this kind of situation.
After all, there were far too many of these things in the Clown's Memory; almost every prop had a useless replica in his personal space.
The Clown's backup plan was very well prepared, which Zhen Yi praised highly.
She chuckled and took out the ordinary Nightfall Spring Whistle from her personal storage space, stroking the whistle casing repeatedly, and couldn't help but laugh:
"That little liar is so dishonest! Why didn't he tell me about this fun thing sooner?"
You've wanted to arrest us for a long time, haven't you? That's why you gave me this fake whistle to annoy me, so that I know the answer to escape, but I have no way to do anything about it.
Oh dear, the little liar has gone bad.
But...
Since you enjoy my exasperated state so much, of course I'll indulge you.
Yes, I'll satisfy you thoroughly!
Hehe~
Just then, Zhen Yi laboriously and slowly brought the whistle to his lips, then mustered all his strength and blew it with great joy.
She hoped the whistle would pierce the thick darkness and reach Cheng Shi, so that perhaps the Clown would be very happy that her plan had worked. And when she heard Cheng Shi Zhen Yi's happiness would begin.
When the Clown plays the Clown again, the audience bursts into laughter.
This is the true essence of circus performance!
Zhen Yi had already begun to pray. She had never been so devout before. What she prayed for was that Cheng Shi would hear the planned whistle and that she would hear Cheng Shi's laughter. In this way, she could stand on the high ground of logic and laugh at the Clown below the stage to her heart's content.
This is hilarious! God of Merriment, please help me!
As it turned out, sincere prayers were often very effective, because Cheng Shi did indeed hear the whistle.
Not only Cheng Shi, but everyone heard the extremely penetrating whistle, which meant that although everyone was imprisoned individually, they were not far apart in Golis's resentment!
Your teammates are right here!
This undoubtedly brought some "comfort" to the trapped Peak Player, but since they did not know the meaning of the whistle, everyone remained silent, with different expressions.
On the Cheng Shi, when Cheng Shi heard that familiar whistle, he had not yet completely shaken off Golis's resentment.
But he froze for a moment, and then the corners of his mouth turned up to the widest extent!
Zhen Xin actually blew that whistle?
This isn't something she would do!
But whether it looks like her or not, she blew the whistle anyway, and as long as she blew the whistle, it means that her calculations were correct, Zhen Xin has now replaced her and become the Clown!
Because of that whistle...
It's absolutely true!
Regardless of her motives, in the end, the one who benefits from blowing this whistle will be herself, because Hu Xuan recognizes Cheng Shi as a person, not some Nightfall Spring Whistle!
She also said that the duration of Nightfall Spring Whistle was too short, and she was going to change the medium of its arrival. It was this sentence that gave Cheng Shi a bold idea during the standoff.
He wanted to use this real Nightfall Spring Whistle to set a trap, so that Zhen Yi would suffer in silence again!
And this unspoken secret is the "fake" whistle she blew herself, which will become the real key to saving Cheng Shi!
Summoned by the whistle, Hu Xuan will descend to rescue the swindler who stole her identity!
Moreover, the moment Cheng Shi saw Hu Xuan again was the moment the whistle lost its effectiveness.
Furthermore, in order to increase the margin for error and in case Hu Xuan fails to respond to the call, Cheng Shi has already transformed himself into a Progeny Priest to extricate himself from the situation.
In this way, even if Zhen Yi's whistle fails to truly save Cheng Shi, Cheng Shi will still accept this fact and then use it to ridicule the Master of Trickery who was outmaneuvered!
Perhaps this operation will not have much impact on Zhen Yi, but based on Cheng Shi's understanding of her, being able to make her suffer a setback is already the most profound damage to this Master of Trickery!
But Cheng Shi never expected that the role-playing game would change midway through, with Zhen Yi being replaced by Zhen Xin.
He wasn't quite sure if Zhen Xin would blow the whistle as he expected, but it seemed the sisters were quite united...
The Nightfall Spring Whistle.
Then...
The moment the whistle blew, in the endless Void, amidst Golis's resentment, a giant, blazing sun slowly rose.
The Eternal Day, Hu Xuan, has descended once more.
As the radiance of the giant sun pierced through the thick darkness, illuminating the eyes of the players trapped in their resentment, everyone was bewildered and confused, except for Zhen Yi's smile...
His face froze.
She felt the whistle near her lips and suddenly realized she'd been tricked...
Standing on the second floor, I was tricked by a Clown performing on the third floor.
But she wasn't discouraged; instead, she gradually rubbed her stiff face into a happier smile.
Hehe~
The Clown seems to have become smarter.
This is really... so interesting.
