Chapter 329: Chapter 323: Nightingale and Rose 25

Josh looked at him calmly: "I came to find you, but it’s not to talk about love."

"Then what did you come for?" The man slowly retreated, his mist-like body creating a flow of cloud and mist, and roses appeared and disappeared under his ethereal feet: "Did you come to love me, little nightingale?"

Josh was momentarily dazed; this man was so beautiful he seemed like a rose spirit, and if one’s resolve was slightly weak, they’d instantly be intoxicated by his beauty, falling into his realm of illusions.

She looked at the man: "I am the nightingale, the one who once betrayed you. How can I make you lift the curse on the town?"

The man smiled slightly: "I’ve already told you how to lift the curse on the town, haven’t I?"

Upon hearing this, Josh quickly recalled his words from last night and tonight in detail: "You mean..."

The man returned to his throne, casting his eyes down from a commandingly high position, exuding a naturally divine aura that made people want to bow and submit under its majestic pressure.

"I said that once you walk down this path of roses and truly fall in love with me, the town’s curse will be lifted. However..."

Halfway through his speech, the man, with somewhat enchanting eyes, deeply observed Josh: "If you don’t fall in love with me within seven days, you will die on the night of the witch’s curse, your chest pierced by rose thorns, your flesh and blood becoming nourishment for me, driving away the cold of winter."

Josh’s heart suddenly throbbed with sharp pain, a tearing sensation spreading from her heart to her limbs and bones, merging with the pricking pain from the roses beneath her feet.

"Poor little nightingale." The man appreciated her painful expression, with a hint of obsession in his eyes.

It seemed that the more she suffered, the more he became infatuated and excited.

Josh clutched her chest, suppressing the tearing pain at her heart.

The man patted her head: "From the moment you stepped into the town, the gears of time began to turn. You only have four days left. I look forward to the day you fall in love with me, little nightingale~"

The mist dissipated, consciousness returned.

Josh opened her eyes and saw the surroundings clearly.

She was leaning against a fountain, with Yuze and Yushi wielding weapons, repelling waves of approaching monsters.

Nearby, Xue Guo and Turbo were already infinitely close to her side.

Josh’s pale complexion gave them confidence.

Xue Guo stared at Josh’s face, a hint of covetousness flashing in his eyes.

Seizing the moment when Yuze and Yushi hurled the monsters away, Xue Guo quickly approached, attempting to control Josh.

Josh was quicker than him; spider silk flicked through her fingers, instantly stretching into wire, as she charged forward, brushing past Xue Guo, and severing the rose vine behind him.

In that moment of brushing past, Xue Guo stared blankly at the person inches away, her eyebrows so cold they seemed like a flawless mountain of snow during a blizzard.

Josh withdrew her hand, crouching while clutching her chest, Yushi’s whip quickly wrapped around her waist, pulling her to his side.

That rose thorn earlier, if left uncut, would not only have pierced Xue Guo but would have pierced Yushi who stood perfectly aligned behind Xue Guo.

That’s why she took action.

Suddenly, a thick rose vine emerged from underground beside them, piercing straight through Xue Guo’s chest.

He let out a scream, collapsing to the ground, staring at his chest in disbelief: "How could this be..."

He was sure his speed had already been optimized to be faster than that of any S-rank player of the same level, so why was the rose vine faster than him?

He stared at the rose vine in disbelief. For some reason, he felt as though the vine grew eyes, a pair of majestic, terrifying eyes staring at him, like an enraged lion, looking down disdainfully upon the ant that invaded its territory.

But when had he provoked this monster?

He wasn’t coveting anything of it either.

Why was he suddenly targeted?

The rose vine entangled him, flinging him away fiercely.

Xue Guo stared in disbelief at the large hole in his chest, unable to control his body as it flew away.

"Captain!" Sun Qimeng and the others hurried after him.

Reluctantly, Xue Guo glanced in Josh’s direction, rare for him to find her weak and alone.

Is this what this woman looks like when she’s weak...

The frail eyebrows and defiant gaze were instantly etched into his heart.

Xue Guo clutched his chest, looking towards Josh.

Josh met his gaze, mouthed the words: "Are you sick?"

Fixing her with such a creepy gaze.

Josh rolled her eyes, moving closer to Yuze with Yushi.

The monster attacks were indeed increasingly aggressive; Yuze and Yushi both had wounds, as did other grouped players who were guarding them, with many injuries accumulating.

The aggressiveness of these monsters was much stronger than before.

Once Josh emerged, these monsters seemed to find their target, attacking Yuze more and more fiercely.

They finally weathered a wave of monster tide, and the Rose’s Judgment arrived as promised.

Players and residents stepped forward one by one to receive judgment, with quite a few even eagerly awaiting this particular judgment.

Yet, tonight’s judgment contained a small twist, as during Xue Guo’s judgment, the silhouette in the light orb changed from Sun Qimeng to Josh.

Yuze’s face turned grim, these roses were clearly stirring trouble.

Not just Xue Guo, even Li Yue, Ma Zixuan, and Qiong’s matches had all changed to Josh.

Yuze’s match transformed into a non-existent NPC.

Josh’s lips twitched minutely; they were indeed here to stir trouble.

Now that these people’s matches had changed to Josh, their gazes upon her gradually altered in flavor.

Yuze’s expression turned frigid as he stared at them, his gaze filled with chilling coldness.

Intimidated by his imposing presence, the others dared not approach, nor dared to glance in that direction.

A massive rose blossomed in the sky: "Among you, someone is unfaithful to love."

The residents’ faces shifted drastically, "Lord Rose! We haven’t!"

"I love my husband very much! There’s definitely no infidelity!"

"Me neither! My love for my wife is absolutely pure!"

"Who would be unfaithful to love! This is utterly impossible!"

The rose only looked at Josh and the players within the crowd: "Someone wants to escape this town, don’t they?"

Yuze, already in a foul mood, was infuriated further by the rose’s confusion: "So what if they do?"

The rose paused, with a tone carrying some bewitchment: "I can let you leave the town, but you need to fulfill my demands."

"What requirements?!" Xue Guo impatiently stepped forward: "If we meet your requirements, will you lift the town’s curse and let us go?"

This was clearly an opportunity to break through, and the other players looked eagerly at the rose, straining to listen.

The rose’s branches and petals swayed under the moonlight, mesmerizingly beautiful.

"In the town, there’s an art studio. You must take art materials from the studio and, without any reference, draw a portrait of your beloved person and present it to me for inspection. If any of you create something capable of moving me, I shall lift the curse."

This was the final challenge to break through!

Everyone’s eyes almost lit up, with eagerness evident in their gazes.

They had truly had enough of this ghostly place, and no one wished to remain here a moment longer!
