Welcome to Nightmare Game III

Deep in the dark and damp sewer, this place that was supposed to hold the sewage was transformed into a crude medical care area. Patients infected with the plague lay on makeshift hospital beds, dying to wait for death to come.

Or, wait for the last ray of life left.

Coughing, moaning, dying murmurs, these are the only sounds here.

In the darkness, there were footsteps, and the exhausted nurse barely opened his eyes and looked into the depths of the dark corridor, where there was a faint light that was getting closer.

Daisy in a black robe was walking towards here with a basket of flowers and an oil lamp.

The old beggar who was in charge of guarding the ward stood up and reported the situation to Daisy: "A total of 63 patients were cured in each ward yesterday, but [-] people died of illness that could not be saved. Now the medicinal materials hoarded in the city are getting more and more expensive , can only be obtained from the black market at a high price..."

After listening, Daisy said: "Urge the fox to exchange the batch of gems into cash."

Old beggar: "Okay."

Daisy began to patrol the ward, and under the guidance of the nurses, she used flowers to absorb the plague in the dying patients one by one, helping them stabilize their condition.

After completing the routine process, she retreated to the corner of the sewer and began to vomit, as if she wanted to vomit all the internal organs.

The curse in the blood became more and more insane, and the black spot crawled on her skin like a living thing, making her look terrifying like a ghost in the mud, and she became weaker every day.

If it weren't for the deep-rooted hatred, she would not have persisted until today.

"Mephisto." Daisy fell to her knees on the dirty ground, cursing the gods with hatred, over and over again.

The old beggar handed her a clean cloth, and she slumped on the ground, wiping the corners of her mouth with the rough cloth indifferently.

"Don't bury yourself in hatred, think about something happy." The old beggar said, "If revenge succeeds, what do you want to do?"

For a while, Daisy couldn't figure out what she would look like after the hatred was over.

Since the sinking of the Thousand Rivers Basin, all that remained in her life was boundless hatred, pointing at Mephisto, the culprit.

The last time I saw Master Sumer, the weak Primordial God was on the verge of death, and Daisy knelt at his feet, begging him to hold on for the Thousand Rivers Basin.

"It's too late. Mephisto, the root of all evil, is the one who ignites the greed in everyone's heart. Greed can make gods fall and destroy gods." The white-haired Sumer said regretfully.

After that, Sumer fell, and the Thousand River Basin began to sink slowly. Among the hundreds of millions of living beings, none of them could escape by boarding a boat.

The original continent of mankind has finally returned to the sea.

sea...

In Daisy's mind filled with hatred, a ray of light suddenly burst out.

She clung to that ray of light like it was the last straw.

It was a man, or rather, a mermaid.

"Caleb..." The weak Daisy murmured the name, and she suddenly gained some strength, "If I survived, I would probably think..."

Return to the sea with him.

There was gradually tenderness in Daisy's hateful eyes.Caleb was not a very intelligent man, but his sincere disposition made him more lovable than all the masked people in the court.

The first time I saw Caleb was on a stormy night, a large hole was viciously dug into the boat she was on, and she almost died in the sea.

At that time, she had not yet received the favor of Master Sumer, and she was not yet the plague princess who would make her father, mother, queen, brothers and sisters feel like a thorn in her throat, but her initiative to ask to go to the epidemic area to treat the epidemic had already aroused the dissatisfaction of the prince.

On her way back to the capital after quelling the border epidemic, the news that Master Sumer had asked to summon her spread like wildfire in the court.Everyone said that she was about to win the favor of Lord Sumer, and might surpass her brother as the heir to the kingdom.

At the moment when the ship sank, what she felt was not the fear of death, but a deep sorrow.

What I want is never power, I just want to save some people from dying, even if it's just one, but who can come and save me?she thought desperately.

The moment she fell into the sea, she was disheartened, and even thought it would be good to just sink into the bottom of the sea. Anyway, human beings originally came from the sea.

But in the cold sea, someone hugged her.She opened her eyes in the darkness, and amidst the thunder and lightning of the storm, she saw a figure swimming forward with her on his back, his figure was as nimble and flexible as a mermaid.

"It'll be all right, I'll take you home, I swear on my life," he said.

She passed out, and when she woke up, she was saved. The one who saved her was the young lord of the nearby city-state—yes, it was such a "coincidence"—he admired her beauty and talent, and proposed to her.

She pretended not to know the lord's ambitions, made false claims with him, used his power to return to the capital, and then looked for a chance to dispel his thoughts decently.

On the way back, she met a dark-skinned boy with big eyes who volunteered to be her bodyguard.

"I'm going to take you home!" he said.

The moment he opened his mouth, she recognized his voice. It was the mermaid who saved her on the night of the shipwreck, but his tail had turned into two legs.

The stupid mermaid didn't know how presumptuous such words were, and was almost interrupted by someone who had managed to grow his legs, and it was all thanks to her efforts to save him.

Since then, this long-legged mermaid has been following her, and followed her to all the epidemic areas in the Qianhe River Basin, witnessing her transformation from the most popular Princess Daisy at the court ball to being stalked by malicious rumors and The plague princess of stigma.

He felt wronged for her, and tearfully begged her to abandon everything and go to the sea with him:

"The high priest told me that only 1% of the world is land, and the remaining 99% is ocean. We are free in the sea. You see, even a prince like me can go to land to find you. You You don't need to endure any grievances anymore, just follow me to be a free mermaid. In the arms of Mother Sea, I can protect you."

For a moment, she, who was physically and mentally exhausted, was moved.

However, the changes came too fast. Master Sumer was dying, the domain solidified and collapsed, and the Qianhe River Basin sank... She was pushed by fate to a road of no return for revenge.Revenge became the meaning of her life.

"Ahem, Caleb..."

Daisy, who fell down deep in the sewer, coughed softly and closed her eyes tiredly.

There was the sound of panicked running in the depths of the tunnel, and the guard in charge of delivering the message ran all the way and shouted, "Lord Daisy, where are you!"

Daisy raised her eyelids and tried to adjust herself to a decent sitting posture: "I'm here."

The guard was sweating profusely, and said in horror: "The big thing is not good. The guard army in the city suddenly surrounded all the exits of the sewer, and is now attacking inward. It won't last long here, please give me instructions!"

Daisy was shocked: "How is this possible?"

This group of drunken nobles don't care about the life and death of the lower city at all, let alone spend great efforts to encircle the refugees and the infected.

The old beggar immediately said: "Mistress Daisy, please leave the hidden exit immediately - there is a passage in the sewer that leads directly to the sea outside the city. Your water skills are good, and you can jump into the sea to escape."

Daisy stood up against the wall and staggered a few times, but she still stood firm.

She asked: "If I leave, there will be no way to organize resistance here. All the refugees living here, as well as the infected people who are being treated, will all die."

Sadness appeared in the eyes of the guard and the old beggar.

"I'll stay." Daisy took a deep breath, her expression resolute and determined, "Now listen to my instructions, collect information, determine the number of guards at each exit, find weak exits and concentrate on breakthroughs, and take all A patient who can still walk. Leave the members of the Death Squad and lead the army of guards who have entered the sewer to...my underground garden, and I will buy you time."

"Master Daisy, this is too dangerous!"

"We can't put you at risk like that."

Daisy's face covered with patterns like black roses showed a calm smile: "Don't worry about me, the sewer garden is my territory, unless Mephisto comes in person, no one is my opponent!"

………………

In the underground garden deep in the sewer, a bloody massacre is going on.

Above the high dome, a huge crystal is exuding gentle and warm light, like the dawn in the morning, illuminating everything and nourishing the flowers that should not grow here.

But now, these carefully reared flowers were trampled by the guards who came forward and turned into a red carpet.

With the death of the flowers, countless pipes buried in the soil turned into vicious hidden weapons, shooting arrows contaminated with poisonous blood - those who were hit by the arrows all died of poisonous pain.

In an instant, hundreds of guards who poured into the underground garden died.

"Burn all these flowers, see where the pipes are, avoid those poisonous arrows, and capture the Plague Princess alive!" shouted the leader of the guard army.

The guards rallied and started setting fires everywhere.

The fire broke out, and the raging fire engulfed the swaying sea of ​​roses. In the flames, Daisy, who stood far away, looked at them with pity.

"It's raining." She raised her head and said, looking at the crystal above her head.

The light of the crystal gradually dimmed, and the pipes densely covered the dome began to rain.

It was a rain of sorrow and resentment, tainted with cursed blood.

It is full of the resentment of hundreds of millions of people in the Qianhe River Basin, and the painful curse of the refugees who were abandoned in the sewer.

The rain of blood was more unpredictable than poisonous arrows. The leader of the guard army realized that everything was irreversible and shouted "retreat", but he was soaked by the rain, his skin and five sense organs were corroded and blackened, and he fell to the ground in pain .

In the underground garden, all the flowers that competed in splendor have died, and the guards of Noah City were buried with them.

In the horrific scene of death, only Daisy was still standing there, looking sadly at the destroyed flower sea. It would take too much time to re-cultivate, but without these flowers, she would not be able to help people absorb the plague.

If... those infected can survive this siege.

Daisy sighed, turned around and walked towards the exit of the sewer. The large force of the guard army has been buried here, and the pressure on the assault team has been relieved. I don't know if they have successfully broken through...

"Crack, crack, crack." Several perfunctory applause sounded.

Daisy stopped in astonishment, and looked back——

In the flower field destroyed by fire and blood rain, a man dressed as a magician appeared behind her at some point, and his facial features, which were sculpted by exaggerated makeup, squeezed out a ferocious smile.

"Oh, you are the descendant of Sumer, the legendary plague princess. Fortunately, I am the magician Mephisto who is here to perform a special show for you." Mephisto tilted his head and opened his mouth exaggeratedly. Raised his arms, "The name of the show is——Death of the Plague Princess."

The gravity of the domain increased sharply, the crystal on the garden dome shattered, and the fragments fell towards Daisy.

Daisy backed away in a hurry, but the body hollowed out by the disease and the curse had already been exhausted.She fell into the ashes of Huahai and was pierced by several crystal fragments.

She spat out a mouthful of blood, and wherever the blood passed, the soil was emitting resentment.

Mephisto came to her, stepping on the corpses all over the floor, grabbed her neck with his hands in white gloves, and lifted the dying Daisy up.

"What an ugly face, it looks like murder if you look at it more." Mephisto chanted exaggeratedly.

Daisy couldn't breathe anymore, and with the last of her strength, she spat on Mephisto forcefully.

The saliva full of cursed blood fell to the ground in the mutated gravitational field before it touched Mephisto.

Only then did Daisy realize how insurmountable the distance between her and the "god" was.As long as Mephisto is on guard, she can't possibly hurt him.

In the deep despair and sorrow, she stared at the culprit with bitter eyes, and with a hoarse voice, squeezed out the last curse from her soul:

"Your plot will fail! You will die tragically, because the plot is revealed!"

The magician sneered, holding Daisy's neck tightly with one hand, and pressing the other on the top of her head, pushing her head back——

Thirty degrees, sixty degrees, ninety degrees... until it bends to an angle that is impossible for a living person.

There was a dull cracking sound in the flesh and blood, it was the sound of the cervical vertebra breaking.

He let go, took off his spotless white gloves, and threw them on the ugly and twisted corpse without taking a second look.

"Hang her and her remnants on the stake for everyone to see. This is the fate of disobeying the gods!"

………………

The sunset was over, and the people of Qi Le who rushed back to the lower city saw the fire soaring into the sky.

The flames came from the square, and countless people gathered around the square, watching the ceremony silently under the persecution of the guards.

It was row after row of fire racks, where the captured and killed people were hung and burned during the siege, the most famous of which was...

"Plague Princess Daisy, spread the plague everywhere, bought people's hearts with magical treatments, and secretly formed a rebel army with the intention of rebelling against the divine right. Now the sinner has been personally killed by Lord Mephisto, and her body will be burned here for three days and three nights Be alert, and fear your God forever."

Qi Leren stared blankly at the unrecognizable corpse on the stake.

He recalled that when he left the sewer disguised as Curt and Daisy sent him out, she showed a rare smile and said something to him: "I am very lucky to have such a reliable companion like you. Now I don't feel so confused and at a loss, it seems that if I work hard with you, even Mephisto can win."

Qi Leren slowly clenched his fists.
