Something's wrong with my roommate

Hearing Qiu Gongyue's words, the expressions of the other three suddenly became solemn.

They have heard Qiu Gongyue mention the dangers in the dream world many times. If the real moon god sacrifice is held here, the degree of danger can be imagined.

Dangdang Dangdang!
The bell outside rang again, breaking the silent night. This was the bell urging everyone to participate in the sacrifice.

"Can we not go?"

Dinah said with some fear that she couldn't stand the eerie atmosphere: "Horror movies don't always warn the audience that it's best to stay where you are when you encounter danger and don't run around."

The three of them were noncommittal to her words. If they didn't want to find out the truth about this place, then staying in the room was indeed a good choice.

But obviously this place didn't give them a chance to make a choice. Suddenly, there was a hasty knock on the door, which startled all four of them.

Qiu Gongyue explored this dream world for 20 days, and never met anyone knocking on the door.

Ito Rika was the closest to the door, so she walked over immediately and looked out through the peephole.

The next second, she turned her head in shock, and said to the three people in a silent tone, "There is no one outside."

bang bang bang.

But the knocking on the door continued, and the speed was getting faster and faster.

Evelyn whispered, "Is this urging us to attend the Moon God Sacrifice?"

The four of them looked at each other in blank dismay. If they let it go and did not participate in the Moon God Sacrifice, what would be the consequences?
In the real world, both Nina and Ellie have reminded them tirelessly that they must not miss the Moon God Sacrifice, otherwise the consequences will be serious.

Qiu Gongyue was contemplating, listening to the more and more urgent knocking on the door, suddenly made up her mind, and told Ito Rika and Dinah: "You two stay in the room, and I will go out with Evelyn."

Although under normal circumstances, it is taboo to act separately, Qiu Gongyue also has difficulties.

Because Ito Rika's strength is really a little weak, and it's hard for Qiu Gongyue to take care of her in real danger. Although Dinah's strength is strong enough, she doesn't have much experience to deal with this complicated environment, and she herself Also very resistant to going out.

During Qiu Gongyue's 20-day exploration, the room was considered the safest place. It was far safer for them to stay here than to rush out together.

The knocking on the door outside became more and more urgent, and even made the entire door vibrate violently.

"Well, no matter what happens to you, you must come back early."

Ito Rika and her sister could only agree to Qiu Gongyue's proposal.

Qiu Gongyue and Evelyn put on their pointed hats again, and then they were mentally prepared to open the door in front of them.

The knock on the door stopped abruptly, and the room was empty, not to mention people, not even a ghost.

Dinah was so frightened that she hid behind Ito Rika, Akimiya Tsuki and Evelyn walked out of the room together and came to the empty gloomy corridor.

The two looked at each other, and Evelyn closed the door smoothly, and left along the corridor with Qiu Gongyue.

A few minutes later, the two turned back again, and Evelyn knocked lightly on the door.

"Are you guys okay?"

They walked back mainly to see if there would be a knock on the door if Ito Rika and Dinah were left in the room.

The room opened quietly, and Ito Rika and Dinah put their heads together and said nervously, "Fortunately, there was no knock on the door after you left."

"That's fine. You all hide in the room honestly and don't run around."

After closing the door, Evelyn and Qiu Gongyue turned and left tacitly, and walked out of the garden.

The two walked in the dark corridor, and Evelyn looked up at the oil paintings hanging in the corridor. She had heard Qiu Gongyue mention these paintings many times.

The oil painting depicts the waxing and waning of the moon, which is said to change every night.

"Well, this is?!"

Evelyn suddenly made a surprised sound, and stared at one of the oil paintings.

A full moon is drawn on this painting, and a clear figure appears on the moon mountain.

The figure on the moon made her feel a sense of fear from nowhere.

Qiu Gongyue also noticed this, with a solemn expression: "When I observed it last night, the black spot was still very blurry."

It finally turned into a clear human form today, and tonight happened to be the sacrifice to the moon by the believers of the Moon God, so it was hard not to think of it together.

Evelyn suppressed the palpitations in her heart and asked, "Is this the god on the moon?"

Qiu Gongyue was about to answer when she suddenly felt something, raised her finger at Evelyn, and made a booing gesture.

At the corner of the corridor in the distance, two pointed hats slowly passed by.

Qiu Gongyue and Evelyn held their breath and watched them disappear into the darkness. Before they could breathe a sigh of relief, they saw the two pointed hats turned back.

They just stood quietly in the darkness, staring at Qiu Gongyue and Evelyn, their eyes scanning their hands.

Qiu Gongyue noticed that the eyes of the two pointed hats began to become bloodshot, and gradually became blood red, and began to walk towards the two of them.

After many explorations, she knew that this was a sign that the pointed hat was going crazy.

But Qiu Gongyue really doesn't want to do anything, because the strength of these pointed hats is increasing every day, and now just any pointed hat has the strength of a fourth-level ability user.

Not to mention the time-consuming and labor-intensive fight, there is nothing to gain, and these pointed hats can't kill them at all, and they will be resurrected in a blink of an eye.

As the atmosphere became more and more solemn, Evelyn on the side suddenly took out the idol that represented the symbol of the moon, which was what Ellie had given them before.

Qiu Gongyue realized something, and immediately took out this thing.

Seeing this scene, the two pointed hats stopped, and their bloodshot eyes gradually returned to normal.

They quickly turned away and disappeared into the darkness.

Qiu Gongyue secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Evelyn: "How did you think of it?"

Evelyn looked down at the moon symbol in her hand: "I found that their eyes have been observing our hands, so I decided to give it a try."

Dangdang Dangdang!
The bell that resounded throughout the castle rang again, Qiu Gongyue and Evelyn could only go on the road silently, and soon they found many pointed hats in the dark corridor, moving towards the garden.

Different from the relaxed and cheerful atmosphere in reality, these pointed hats took heavy steps, no one communicated, no one said anything, just like this silently moved forward in the corridor, gradually gathering crowds.

Qiu Gongyue and Evelyn mixed in, and with the crowd came to the garden outside, where thousands of pointed hats had already gathered, which meant that there were at least a thousand fourth-level ability users.

There was no noise or whispering, and all the pointed hats were arranged silently. Qiu Gongyue and Evelyn hid among them, looked up at the altar, and found that Mia was on the altar.

And the huge moon that seems to be within reach hangs in the night sky, setting off her as if she is standing on the moon.

The atmosphere was so dignified that it seemed to be turned into substance, the cold air had dropped below zero, and white mist would be brought out by breathing.

Both Qiu Gongyue and Evelyn held back and dared not breathe, because only two of them were spitting out white mist, while the other Luna believers stood quietly, motionless, like puppets that didn't need to breathe.

After a long time, Nina appeared, followed by a line of pointed hats carrying stretchers with struggling male sacrifices strapped to them.

"Praise the moon, great Luna, Lord of the Silver Moon..."

Amid Mia's pious prayers, these struggling sacrifices were cut open alive, and the bloody hearts were put on trays and sent to the altar.

Although Evelyn had already heard Qiu Gongyue describe it, but seeing this bloody scene for the first time, she still frowned subconsciously.

Seeing the rest of the moon god believers kneeling on the ground fanatically, the two of them could only follow suit.

Soon, just like what Qiu Gongyue saw last time, as the ceremony progressed, the moonlight in the sky condensed a faint figure, "walking" down from the moon, touching the ground with Mia's raised hand. Together, the two melt into one in an instant.

Qiu Gongyue's eyes were fixed on this scene. She was interrupted unexpectedly last time, but this time she wanted to see what would happen in the end of this sacrifice.

After merging with the mysterious figure coming down from the moon, Mia turned around and faced thousands of Luna believers below.

Her face was expressionless, her eyes radiated bright moonlight, and her whole temperament changed drastically, as high as a god.

The believers of the Moon God knelt on the ground frantically, with crazy expressions, praising and pleading to Mia non-stop.

In this atmosphere, Qiu Gongyue and Evelyn both felt shuddering.

The moonlight in the sky is getting stronger and brighter, and finally it is like the sun at noon, covering the whole world in it.

In the endless glare, Qiu Gongyue's consciousness gradually blurred.

When she came back to her senses, she found that she was standing on the balcony of a villa on an island, with the continuous coast below, and the setting sun that was about to fall into the horizon dyed the sky blood red.

The sound of the waves, the gentle breeze, is an excellent picture of the sunset by the sea.

"here it is……"

Qiu Gongyue frowned slightly, feeling that her thoughts were a little confused, and she couldn't figure out where she was for a while.

"Don't catch a cold."

A dreamy voice came from behind, she looked back and saw Xu Cheng walking in from the bedroom.

Qiu Gongyue replied subconsciously: "It's a bit hot in the room, come out and blow some air."

She remembered that this was a famous resort, and she and Xu Cheng had just arrived here a few days ago.

Xu Cheng walked over, hugged Qiu Gongyue from behind, put her cheek against her, and looked at the sea view below: "Do you like this place?"

"like."

"Then let's stay longer."

"Ask me now, have you already made your own decision?"

"Oh, don't tell me if you see through."

The hands of the two were entangled, and a pair of wedding rings were impressively worn on their fingers.

Memories emerged in her mind, Qiu Gongyue remembered that after she took revenge on the Senate, she unloaded all burdens and had been married to Xu Cheng for several years.

The two live in Japan, but they go out every year and travel around the world.

Xu Cheng's hand gradually descended, stroking Qiu Gongyue's slightly protruding abdomen, where a new little life was being conceived.

Qiu Gongyue pressed her hand, her heart was full of happiness: "Have you thought about the name yet?"

"I haven't thought about it yet, let's think about it together."

As Xu Cheng said, he continued to reach down.

"Stop it."

Qiu Gongyue let out a soft snort, wanting to stop Xu Cheng, fearing that it would be bad for the child in her stomach, but her attitude was not firm.

Xu Cheng naturally understood what his wife meant. Her hand went down firmly, and when she touched her belly, she touched the mysterious rune.

"what!"

Qiu Gongyue trembled all over, and felt like an electric shock for a moment, and her body and head ached violently.

Countless pictures flashed through her mind, that was her and Xu Cheng's happy and sweet married life, all the pictures were like paintings thrown into a shredder, torn apart cruelly and ruthlessly, and finally completely turned into darkness.

In the endless darkness, for an unknown amount of time, Qiu Gongyue slowly opened her eyes and found herself covered in sweat, lying on the grass.

She struggled to get up, panting and looking around.

Bolt Castle, outside the gardens.

Thousands of Luna believers knelt on the ground. Although they couldn't see the expressions on their faces clearly wearing pointed hats, they could feel the aura of extreme joy and happiness from them.

Qiu Gongyue thought of everything she had just experienced, and suddenly realized what the situation of these moon god believers was now.

That kind of extreme happiness makes people unwilling to wake up at all.

If it weren't for the mysterious runes on her body, Qiu Gongyue would not even be able to find herself in the falsehood of happiness.

Evelyn, who was on the side, knelt on the ground and remained motionless, obviously also hit.

Qiu Gongyue was about to check her situation when she suddenly trembled and looked up at the altar.

Mia standing on the altar is like a god on high, with moonlight shining from her eyes, just like this, quietly, condescendingly looking down at Qiu Gongyue.

Qiu Gongyue reached out and grabbed Evelyn, stood up suddenly from the ground, turned around and fled.

A terrifying spiritual power burst through the air in an instant, blasting heavily into Qiu Gongyue's brain, and the wave of killing intent automatically counterattacked, but it was torn apart in an instant like paper.

Qiu Gongyue groaned in pain, and her brain felt like it was being torn apart.

"heresy!!"

Suddenly there were roars from the left and right sides, and dozens of moon god believers woke up, roaring and rushing towards Qiu Gongyue.

Their strength has reached the peak of the fourth level, and their speed is even faster than lightning.

Qiu Gongyue endured the severe pain in her brain and resorted to breathing techniques. Ferocious qi erupted from her body, trying to blow all the believers of the moon god away.

But the originally fierce gang wind seemed weak at this moment, and it was easily broken through by the believers of the moon god. Not only was their strength enhanced, but Qiu Gongyue's own strength was obviously restricted by the environment.

Seeing that dozens of them were about to be killed, Qiu Gongyue, who had a severe head pain, suddenly opened her eyes, and the mysterious runes under her belly were slightly warm.

puff!puff!puff!
All the believers of the moon god who rushed up suddenly fell apart, like torn dolls, a lot of blood spilled on the ground along with the broken limbs.

Qiu Gongyue didn't care about figuring out what was going on in front of her, gritted her teeth and performed a shadow attack, leading Evelyn to escape from the garden, towards the castle, and came to the window in a blink of an eye.

Mia standing on the altar silently watched Qiu Gongyue fleeing, the moonlight all over the earth suddenly condensed into a few ribbons, instantly penetrated a long distance, tightly bound Qiu Gongyue's hands and feet, dragged her return.

Qiu Gongyue's outstretched hand was less than ten centimeters away from the window.

At this critical moment, a hand suddenly protruded from the window, grabbed Qiu Gongyue's wrist tightly, and dragged her and Evelyn into the window, and several ribbons formed by moonlight were directly torn off.

"Finally Ken came out!"

Mia's eyes suddenly enlarged, and her whole body turned into a pale moonlight. She flew into the castle in an instant, and quickly wandered around in the corridor hall to search.

Qiu Gongyue felt that her wrist was tightly grasped, and she kept running fast in the castle.

She raised her head and saw a petite figure from behind.

Kelly!

After a lapse of 20 days, she finally reappeared, and she saved Qiu Gongyue again at the Luna Sacrifice.

Kelly looks like an ordinary person, but her running speed is extremely fast, and she even has the effect of shrinking into inches, leading Qiu Gongyue to keep running around in the maze-like castle.

There was a clear whistling sound from behind, like a gust of wind blowing, it was Mia's movement when chasing them,

Her whole body turned into countless beams of moonlight, which almost illuminated the entire dark castle. Every corridor and every room was filled with bright light.

Kelly took Qiu Gongyue to escape through the cracks in Mia's hunt, and every time she escaped dangerously and dangerously.

When the distance was the closest, the two sides were even only separated by a corner.

In the end, Kelly relied on her familiarity with the environment and better positioning to successfully escape Mia's pursuit and escape back into the room.

"Bang!"

Kelly closed the door heavily, then sat down on the chair, put her hands on her knees, and gasped for breath.

The severe pain in Qiu Gongyue's brain has been relieved a little. She resisted the discomfort and lowered her head to check Evelyn's condition.

After taking off the pointed hat, Evelyn closed her eyes tightly and smiled slightly at the corner of her mouth, obviously looking happy.

Obviously, she fell into some kind of false illusion of happiness just like Qiu Gongyue had encountered before.

Qiu Gongyue began to try to wake up Evelyn, but no matter what she did, Evelyn was still in a deep sleep and had no reaction at all.

"It's useless."

Kelly suddenly spoke. She poured herself a glass of water on the table, and after pouring it down, she breathed a sigh of relief: "People who enter this state cannot be awakened from the outside world."

Qiu Gongyue looked back at her: "Then is there any way to wake her up?"

"Unless you can enter her spiritual world and uncover the false veil for her, she won't be able to wake up on her own."

Kelly shrugged: "Don't look at me, I don't know how to help you enter her spiritual world."

Qiu Gongyue touched Evelyn's forehead and asked, "What will happen to her if she continues like this?"

"Don't worry, she will wake up after the Moon God sacrifice is over."

Kelly glanced at Evelyn and chuckled: "But by then, she will become a devout follower of the Moon God. If you don't want to turn against your companions, you should kill her now."

Qiu Gongyue thought of those crazy Luna believers outside, if Evelyn also became like that, how could she do it?

At this time, Kelly complained in a dissatisfied tone: "Didn't I tell you to leave the castle quickly? Why are you back again?"

"Sorry, we have reasons to stay."

Whether Qiu Gongyue resurrected her parents in order to regain the power of the shadow goddess, or sister Evelyn followed the ancestor's last wish to find the heir of the goddess, they must stay to find the truth.

Only Ito Rika was really innocent and involved.

Qiu Gongyue said gratefully to Katie: "Thank you for saving me twice."

Kelly waved her hand indifferently: "You're welcome, I have nothing to do anyway."

"Miss Kelly."

Qiu Gongyue looked into her eyes: "What is going on with this place? What exactly is the Moon God Priest? Can you tell me?"

Kelly was silent for a while, and then said: "Just treat this place as a very special place. People here can't leave, but people outside can come in. As for the sacrifice of the moon god, of course they believe in the moon, and the moon gives Rewards, but such rewards come at a price, and you've seen it all."

Qiu Gongyue vaguely understood what she meant, the moon's return probably refers to those intoxicating false happiness, and the price may be insanity.

She wondered, "Why are you willing to tell me this now?"

Last time, Kelly refused to say anything and kept urging her to leave.

Hearing Qiu Gongyue's doubts, Kelly spread her hands: "Because you have been completely trapped here and can no longer leave. As an unlucky person like you, of course I am happy to tell you the situation."

After she finished speaking, she observed Qiu Gongyue's face, but she didn't see the expected panic or tension, Qiu Gongyue's expression remained calm all the time.

"You don't panic at all, don't you believe me?"

"No, I take your word for it."

Qiu Gongyue shook her head: "It's just that I've been mentally prepared for this situation, so I'm not surprised."

In her short life of more than [-] years, she has experienced countless times of life-threatening, and now this situation is just a small scene.

For this kind of psychological quality, Kelly can only give her a thumbs up to express her admiration.

"Miss Kelly."

Qiu Gongyue was still thinking about the other two people: "I have two other companions who are hiding in my room. Is it safe there?"

Since Kelly said that the group of them was trapped here and could never get out, then Ito Rika and Dinah would not be able to leave even if they hid in the room until the next day. If they were not notified in time, maybe they would leave the room.

Kelly didn't seem surprised that Qiu Gongyue had two other companions: "It's hard to say, you'd better stay with them and take care of each other."

Qiu Gongyue looked down at Evelyn and said, "I want to go back, can I put her here with you?"

"That won't do."

Kelly waved her hand quickly: "I'm not necessarily safe here."

Qiu Gongyue felt the difficulty of the situation for a while, and the evil consequences of being separated from Ito Rika and the others appeared.

But if they don't separate, if the four of them participate in the Moon God Sacrifice together, I'm afraid none of them will be able to escape now.

Kelly's words were immediately verified. Not long after she finished speaking, there was a fierce knock on the door outside.

Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang!

Kelly's face changed: "You came to the door so soon?"

She hurried to the window and pushed it open.

Qiu Gongyue also quickly carried the unconscious Evelyn on her back, and ran over.

The knocking on the door outside had turned into a banging on the door, and the entire door vibrated violently, as if it was about to be knocked open.

Qiu Gongyue and Kelly jumped out of the window together, and heard a loud bang in the room, and the door had been knocked open.

The two fell out of the window, and outside was a dark corridor.

Kelly reached out and grabbed Qiu Gongyue's arm, and said nervously: "Follow me closely, don't get lost."

Qiu Gongyue hugged Evelyn in one hand, followed Kelly closely, and began to run in the dark corridor.

There was the sound of howling wind from behind, and the moonlight kept flickering in the darkness, and Mia was catching up.

"Haven't you played enough hide and seek?"

Mia's angry voice came from behind: "Stop!"

Rumble!
With her voice, the entire castle began to distort, countless rooms and corridors turned like building blocks, the sky and the earth hung upside down, and the space was divided layer by layer.

A sudden suspension appeared under her feet, Qiu Gongyue suddenly lost her balance, and fell down with Evelyn.

Her reaction was extremely fast, and the soles of her feet shot out gang qi instantly, supporting her to fly into the air again.

But in the blink of an eye, Kelly had disappeared.

There was a whistling sound from behind, Qiu Gongyue could only hug Evelyn and continue to run forward.

In the past 20 days, she has completely memorized the environment and all the paths in the castle, but the entire space in front of her is changing violently, and her memory is useless at all.

Qiu Gongyue didn't know where to run, so she could only keep avoiding the pursuit from behind.

Fortunately, the target of Mia's pursuit seems to be Kelly instead of Qiu Gongyue. After running away for more than ten minutes, Qiu Gongyue finally escaped from Mia's hunting range.

Standing on a relatively flat open space, Qiu Gongyue got lost for a while.

The overhead becomes a row of doors, the ceiling on the left, and the intertwined corridors on the right.

Now she felt like she was not in a maze, but inside a Lego that had been smashed and jumbled together.

In desperation, Qiu Gongyue could only hug Evelyn, relying on her intuition to continue walking in the dark in this messy environment. After walking for an unknown amount of time, in the dead darkness, a slight panting sound attracted her attention. attention.

In this weird world, those Luna believers can't breathe, just like the dead, the only ones who can breathe are people like them who come in from the outside.

Qiu Gongyue fumbled along the subtle breathing sound, and in a blink of an eye, she came to a strange room, surrounded by various instruments of torture, it should be a torture room.

A naked woman was hung in this torture room, with countless hideous wounds all over her body, which was shocking.

The slight breathing sound is coming from her mouth and nose, she is not dead yet.

Looking at the tortured woman in front of her, Qiu Gongyue guessed her identity in an instant.
