Chapter 202 The Omen of the End

 "No?"

Anvis frowned and looked at the thin bartender in front of him.

"Mr. Bartender, this joke is not funny."

As he spoke, he raised his hand and placed the black copper key with the number plate on the surface of the solid wood bar. Qiao Mu beside him made the same action as him.

"That's good, as long as you are willing to tell us the specific voyage of the black galley that brought me and other travelers here. Then we don't have to refund the remaining room fee-"

On one side of the bar, a fish oil candle on a wooden support column lit up the flickering candle flame. The candlelight shone obliquely on the two keys on the table, casting a dark shadow, which was somewhat eerie.

"Black galley?"

He lowered his head and glanced at the two keys. The bartender's eyes were dead, and his strangely pale face showed no change in expression.

"Sorry, you three, there were never any black galleys or travelers from the mainland."

"Perhaps you just had a dream, and you might not know what you saw in the dream."

Dream?

Anvis suddenly understood where the source of the vague sense of disharmony he had felt before came from.

The surrounding environment seems to be vaguely similar to the dream world.

Moreover, listening to the bartender's words, he suddenly felt a little chilly and remembered a detail that he had never paid much attention to before.

A few days after landing on the island, except for the bishop, he indeed never saw the other people who came with him by boat——

Staring at the deserted and deep tavern hall under the dim candlelight, and the abominable bartender with a weird shadowy silhouette on his face that made people feel inexplicably disgusted, Anvis suddenly didn't want to wait here any longer.

Quickly leaving the sleeping sea monster, the three of them disappeared into the stormy night again.

Just now, under Anvis's hint, Qiao Mu extended his mental power and explored the guests in the entire tavern.

All are natives of the island, not a single outsider exists!

At the same time, as time went by, Qiaomu also sensed other things that were wrong.

On the surface of the island, there is a dull and depressing atmosphere that is gradually rising.

.….….

Rumble, rumble——

Accompanied by the endless thunder, the violent wind and rain continued to beat against the transparent crystal plate of the window, making loud crackling sounds.

In the luxurious building in the center of the abnormal area, Xia Ye Yinghuo was wearing old leather armor and a rusty iron sword hanging from his waist. He was curled up beside a stone fireplace that was glowing with orange-red fire, as if he were an alert hamster.

On the way here, she noticed that strange changes had taken place in the town tonight.

It's not that she saw anything, but that there was an additional negative status on the panel: [Suppressed Breath]

Since her level is less than ten, the negative effect is to reduce all attributes by 5%, and the description is also very strange and only has a short paragraph: The end is coming.

Beside the window, the little girl with black hair and eyes, Lona, was still sitting on the large chair, her face facing the summer night fireflies, like an exquisite doll whose posture never changes.

After several days of communication, Xia Ye Yinghuo learned that unlike her who could run around freely during the day, Lona could not leave the confines of this house.

After learning this, Xia Yeyinghuo burst out with great sympathy for the seemingly small Lona. Feeling sympathy for the same illness, she would tell Lona what she saw during the day when she went back every night.

"...So, today I found two more cats and killed five, six, or seven big crabs! I learned a new skill, and I also found this defensive armor! I must be awesome!"

Although she was sitting in a timid posture, Xia Ye Yinghuo kept chattering without giving up.

Click--

At this time, a huge thunder sounded. The girl trembled instinctively, and her body curled up on the sofa couldn't help but shrink again.

"……sharp."

Lorna nodded silently, looking at the half-elf girl who was about to shrink into a ball, and nodded in praise a little against her will.

After the relationship between the two gradually became familiar, Lorna was not as cold as she was at the beginning, but would occasionally respond.

"Speaking of which, it's so dark in here. There are obviously such big crystal chandeliers here! Since we are all tied to this hateful house, there is no need to help it save electricity... What are we saving?"

She seemed to feel that her behavior was a bit embarrassing. Xia Yeyinghuo couldn't help but blame it on the darkness of the room. In the end, she even made a face.

"...No, magic crystal."

Looking at the half-elf girl with a calm expression, Lorna spoke concisely.

"Well……"

Xia Ye Yinghuo suddenly choked and didn't know how to answer the question.

For a moment, silence returned to the room. There was only the faint crackling sound of the fire, the roaring thunder outside the window and the sound of heavy rain hitting the crystal on the window.

In this strange atmosphere of silence, Lorna looked at the painting on the wall again.

At some point, the location of the two people in the painting has quietly changed, from a gentle beach to a dangerous sea cliff.

The orange-red of the setting sun is replaced by the blue of dusk, and the purple moon is faintly revealed in the sky, making the color of the picture slightly colder.

The outlines of the two people's bodies became slightly blurred, while the obscure shadow in the dark blue sea became clearer and clearer, as if it was about to break out at any time.

"..."

Looking again at Xia Ye Yingying's light green eyes reflecting the firelight, Lona's lips opened slightly, with some hesitation.

After a moment of silence, the little girl spoke softly.

"Vivian, you are going to die."

Although she still looked calm, there was an almost undetectable sadness in the girl's gentle tone.

"You have persisted for a long time, but tonight, you have truly reached your limit..."

"……yes."

Looking at [Dream Eclipse III] in the negative list on the panel, Xia Ye Yinghuo nodded depressedly.

She has just reached level four, but after tonight, the amount of blood that will be deducted has already exceeded her maximum life.

Fortunately, she currently only has a little more experience bar, so her experience loss after death is not significant.

In a game with a limited number of resurrections, if you just wander around the novice area, you can encounter a certain death copy?

She has decided that after she logs off, she must give a good greeting to these unscrupulous dog planners who designed the plot of the game in order to sell resurrection stones!

Seeing that the girl seemed to remain calm as usual after hearing the news, Lorna tilted her head in confusion.

"Aren't you afraid?"

"I'm afraid there's nothing I can do about it. Just die once."

Hearing Luo Na's question, Xia Ye Yinghuo didn't think much and explained casually.

"...You are so brave."

Hearing Xia Ye Yinghuo's stress-free speech, Lorna's lusterless dark eyes widened slightly. Although she was depressed, she still couldn't help but admire the half-elf girl's open-mindedness.

"Lona, do you know."

"Actually, my biggest dream when I came to this world is to be able to fly freely in the sky——"

After a moment of silence, Xia Ye Yinghuo suddenly spoke to herself.
