Chapter 742: A sudden change for the worse!
Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations
Ever since she began playing World of Warcraft, Helen had felt a nightmarish power growing inside of her. She was troubled by nightmares every night, and those weird and creepy scenes in her dreams woke her up, making her too afraid to sleep.
However, after Sala recommended Outlast to her, Helen began to change…
Previously, it had been hard to sleep, and now she just didn’t dare to close her eyes. Whenever she remembered that the fat demon-like man who chased her around throughout the game was finally turned into meat paste by the supernatural existence that worked above the laws of nature, she would shiver involuntarily.
The scarier thing was that the supernatural existence had crawled into her body!
As for the previous nightmares…
For some reason, Helen felt that the power which caused nightmares seemed to be stirring in her body again, but…
She felt like the supernatural existence inside her could instantly slam the creepy things in her nightmares into meat pies, and she thought, Are those things really scary?
While shaking her head, Helen murmured, “Forget it… I still feel like Outlast is more frightening…”
Now, she felt that she could punch any horrifying monster which had scared her senseless before; she was now very tough.
“I feel like I’m becoming a tomboy?” Helen patted her cheeks and followed the others to continue the rescue mission.
…
Although the Symbol of Life in the game could only be used once, the items re-created by the System were all top-quality. Obviously, the items that Mr. Fang gave these players were truly top-level objects.
The tremendous life energy contained in these Symbols of Life could be used more than once.
After the paladins and priests resurrected many people, the energy in these items still hadn’t run out.
The people who could use the Symbols of Life must have the talent to learn Redemption or Resurrection, and there weren’t many people who could do that. Otherwise, there wouldn’t be so many people who couldn’t be resurrected in the later story of World of Warcraft.
The rescue team walked through the desolate ruins and searched for orcs and humans whom they could resurrect.
During the process, these people received blessings and gratitude from countless people and witnessed the joy of coming back to life after death.
Usually, the corpses of masters were relatively intact while the civilians, farmers, and other ordinary people couldn’t be resurrected even with the godly items such as these Symbols of Life.
At such moments, these people would be struck by deep sorrow and could do nothing but give their sincere blessings.
“May the Holy Light be with you.” Helen prayed for them, wishing more than ever that such catastrophes wouldn’t come again.
Luckily, this horrifying legion didn’t have the time to go to each city and village in the Orc Kingdom, so the rescue team only needed to follow the Shadow Legion’s footprints and search city by city.
“Rheinster… My friends from the Independent People’s Inn Guild asked me to find an orc named Rheinster…” Sala searched around anxiously.
“Do they know what happened here?” Helen asked.
“No… I haven’t had the heart to tell them the truth…”
“Many people have asked me to figure out the situation with these orcs,” Commander Elven said, “Don’t tell them yet.”
More than anyone else, Elven knew how it felt to have a good friend die. While they searched around anxiously, he knew how impatient and anxious that the players in the distant ‘East Continent’ were feeling right now.
“Wait until we resurrect them all.” Today, everyone got so busy that they wished they could split themselves into groups of ten so that they could do more work.
Even Mr. Fang closed his new shop when he came out.
Mr. Fang’s shop was located in the busy zone of the city, and many people passed it each day. Glass, the knight captain and the senior priest of the Canglan City branch of Judgment Godly Palace suddenly saw a group of people pointing in the direction of Origins Internet Club.
[What’s happening?]
[The Origins Internet Club is closed?]
Glass casually posted the news on the magic forum. [Origins Internet Club seems to have shut down. It’s closed for the whole day.]
[It’s shut down?!]
[It’s the end of the ‘Blizzard Braggers’. Hahaha!]
Countless Blizzard haters spread the news and rejoiced the downfall of the shop.
In the Radiant Light Godly Nation, Master Lywood, Master Auth, and even Peable laughed when they saw this news.
“An achievement! This time, we’ve obtained a great achievement!” Peable’s voice shook in excitement. “Go check and see if the news is true.”
…
Meanwhile, at the border of Lianshan Principality.
The battle between human elites and the soldiers of the Shadow Legion was a conflict of blood and fire. Large groups of soldiers of the Shadow Legion and human soldiers fell, and then more swarmed up.
Even the ultimate saint-level masters, the strongest beings on the continent, could find enemies who matched their strength among the enemies. The horrifying energy releasing from the battleground exploded in the sky again and again, even piercing and shattering the thick clouds and leaving shocking marks in the sky.
None of these masters noticed, or perhaps didn’t have time to notice, that an invisible fear silently spread across the battleground.
It seemed that the seeds that were once planted in the depths of people’s hearts had rooted and began to sprout.
Like a plague, the fear spread in everyone’s mind as if an extremely horrifying thing tried to crawl out from the bottom of their hearts.
Darkness. These people seemed to see endless darkness in which the countless creepy things that had once appeared in their nightmares now took shape before their eyes.
“No…”
While shouts of fear sounded, one of the humans suddenly dropped his weapon and fled.
After the first deserter, there were the second and the third.
In fact, while some were still hesitating and struggling, they were executed by the enemies.
“What’s happening?!” Grand Mage Adolf was casting spells when he noticed the weird state of a mage beside hm.
Then, as if he had turned crazy, this mage shot out a heaven-burning fire cloud. Caught off guard, his comrades were caught in the fire and fell from the sky while screaming.
“How can it be?!” In the Nations Summit, the projected images all stood up and watched the scene incredulously.
The invisible fear was still spreading. The situation made a sudden change for the worse.
Gradually, the sky above the city was engulfed by this horrifying fear which spread among the crowds in silence, turning fighters to crazy people one after another.
The city that was full of lively people was instantly turned into a ghost realm!
