Day of Imprisonment

The curse was like a swarm of flies, invisible and fast. You knew it was there, but it was hard to grasp. Fortunately, because of the advance warning, the spell was immediately bounced back by some force.

But it didn't attack its master; it seemed to fly into a black hole.

Then, there was no more movement.

However, that curse still had an effect on one person present.

Cinderella.

This beautiful young girl tilted her head and fell asleep on the table.

The Mad Lion immediately jumped up, alert. He turned his head to look at the fireplace, and at the same time, took out a knife and threw it over there.

But just as the knife was thrown, a strange, blue electricity-like thing hit the Mad Lion.

Instantly, the Mad Lion's body was like a steamer that had been suddenly opened, emitting a large amount of steam-like substance. Immediately after, he disappeared, and in his place on the ground, there was a mouse.

The hand holding the strange branch still wanted to point at Luo Xi, but this time Luo Xi took the initiative.

[Maze]!

This card, obtained from the First Hospital, was now put to use.

The surrounding environment immediately changed.

Except for Luo Xi, who used the card, everyone else's vision and perception would be affected by [Maze].

The 'guest' in the fireplace finally revealed his true form.

A woman with a very long neck and very long limbs.

Wearing a worn robe, the branch in her hand was actually a meticulously crafted small cane, like a work of art.

"A magic wand?"

Luo Xi could naturally guess the origin of this thing.

In her eyes, the environment here had changed, and moreover, she couldn't see Luo Xi.

But interestingly, the woman's eyes were fixed on Luo Xi's position from beginning to end.

"[Maze] is ineffective, or is she just bluffing?" Luo Xi remained calm. His expression was solemn, as if he didn't believe this judgment. However, this didn't prevent him from walking over and picking up the squeaking mouse on the ground.

When the mouse saw Luo Xi, it became even more agitated. Not only did it squeak, but it also pointed with its little claws, as if gesturing something.

Luo Xi's expression quickly changed from surprise to joy, like a child seeing an interesting toy.

Over there, the woman's neck and limbs began to return to their original shape, eventually turning into a normal-proportioned human. Moreover, her originally pale and bloodless, corpse-like skin became ruddy. In addition, her hair, which was like withered seaweed, visibly became shiny. It was not only full, but also turned golden.

This directly changed the woman's temperament from negative to positive, and her temperament and appearance were maxed out.

When the woman walked towards the sleeping Cinderella and then bent down to touch the young girl's golden wavy hair, Luo Xi once again felt that the way she was acting seemed to indicate that [Maze] was indeed ineffective against this woman.

She might be seeing him as a monkey trainer.

And why didn't she attack him, but only used a [Transfiguration] spell to turn the Mad Lion into a mouse? Was it because she thought the Mad Lion was a bigger threat in her eyes?

Luo Xi smiled.

Whether this woman had really seen through [Maze] or was just bluffing, the fact that she hadn't attacked him so far was a good thing.

And next, there were still great dangers and various variables.

He could feel that 'Gray Robe' had already left the room before this woman appeared, reaching a safe distance where she wouldn't be discovered by the other party.

'Gray Robe' was seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages.

This indirectly showed that the next thing would be difficult to reconcile.

However, the 'Fairy Godmother' couldn't detect people outside a certain distance, which meant that her strength wasn't particularly outrageous, but she only had advantages in certain aspects.

Curses, spells...

Luo Xi looked at the squeaking mouse in his hand, and then touched the mouse's head with his finger.

Whether it looked like it or felt like it, this was a mouse.

In terms of methods alone, it was indeed powerful.

"Relax, hide first."

After saying that, he put the mouse on the table next to him.

Meow~

From the woman's skirt, a cat emerged at this time.

Luo Xi remembered that someone had once said that looking at a cat from a mouse's perspective was very terrifying. Some people said it was similar to a person looking at a tiger, but in reality, it was far from it.

There was simply no comparison.

If you had to compare, you would have to magnify the tiger ten times, which would be about the same.

An absolute behemoth, and the mice that die in the cat's mouth can be said to be quite miserable and quite desperate. It is a very terrifying experience.

Although Luo Xi was curious, he didn't want to experience it.

The cat ran over, and the mouse that the Mad Lion had turned into climbed back onto Luo Xi, trembling in fear.

"He shouldn't talk nonsense, sacredness cannot be defiled." The woman said something at this time, as if talking to herself, but Luo Xi knew that these words were addressed to him.

Moreover, he knew what she meant.

This woman was testing him.

It had been confirmed that [Maze] was not ineffective. She was just acting before, pretending to be calm.

"In this world, where is there absolute sacredness?" However, Luo Xi still asked in his heart.

At the same time, he activated another card.

[Paralysis].

However, the attack target was not the woman, but the cat.

The other party planned to sneak in and use the cat to find his position, so he had to control the cat first.

Now, it was like playing chess. Each had their own concerns, but they kept making moves to test each other. Once they found an opportunity, it would be a thunderous blow, fast and deadly.

Luo Xi still had a [See Ghost] in his hand.

Originally, this card had to be used in a scene that matched the Yin-Yang attributes, but if the card 【Ghost Wall】 was used in advance, then it could be used in any scene.

The combination of the two cards can maximize their effectiveness.

Only after using two 【Grievance】 cards to activate 【See Ghost】 does 【Ghost Wall】 truly begin to exert its power.

Terrifying ghosts began to appear.

Blood began to seep from the cracks in the walls, and the environment here had already turned into a gloomy and terrifying haunted house. There were no windows around, but there was always a cold wind blowing. Then, creaking noises came from all directions. A normal person would already be panicking in this situation.

But the Fairy Godmother was clearly not a normal person.

She had a sneer on her face, and strangely, her eyes seemed to be fixed on Luo Xi.

It was as if she knew Luo Xi's location from the very beginning.

This was an interesting game. The constant gaze clearly indicated that 【Ghost Wall】 had failed. It seemed that this Fairy Godmother knew Luo Xi's location.

But it was also possible that she didn't know, and was just using a method similar to illusion to confuse Luo Xi, so that the latter would actively reveal his location and then attack.

As for whether or not that was the case, the answer would be revealed soon.

The blood seeping from the walls began to gather, and then a ghost crawled out from inside.

The latest novels are first published on 69shu.com!

The 【See Ghost】 card began to take effect. As for the source of the ghosts, they are generally generated based on the current scene. That is to say, if there is resentment and evil spirits here, then 【See Ghost】 can almost 100% summon this resentment and evil spirits, and give them a certain degree of strengthening.

The ghost that crawled out of the blood looked like a middle-aged man.

One could vaguely recognize that he was a local.

And from the clothes and appearance of this vengeful ghost, Luo Xi actually had a very bold guess.

"This ghost, why does he look a bit like Cinderella? Is he her father?"

This guess was not unfounded.

In addition to the similarities in their eyebrows, Cinderella's father did die in the story (some versions do not have him dying, this book uses the death version).

However, the story did not explain how he died.

Currently, if it was a normal death, it would be impossible for him to leave behind resentment, let alone be condensed into a vengeful ghost by 【See Ghost】.

Therefore, there was something fishy about the death of Cinderella's father.

That's right, fairy tales only show all the good things, and all the dark and terrifying truths are hidden under the beauty, constantly rotting, slowly taking root and sprouting, and then silently growing into a terrifying monster.

Now, this monster, with the help of 【See Ghost】, was able to see the light of day again.

With the appearance of the vengeful ghost, the Fairy Godmother was obviously unable to maintain her composure and calmness.

Her eyes looked at the vengeful ghost, and she clearly recognized him at first glance.

Then she had a look of shock and disbelief.

"You, how could you..."

The evil ghost pounced on the Fairy Godmother, and Luo Xi also launched an attack at this time.

【Fracture】, plus a biological card 【Battlefield Infantry】.

Admittedly, attacking might expose his location, but Luo Xi didn't want to give up this rare opportunity to attack.

Fracture directly caused the Fairy Godmother to scream. She was clearly still a mortal and could not be immune to this attack.

And the sudden entry of the Battlefield Infantry further transitioned the scene into a face-to-face fight.

It seemed that everything was under control.

But as soon as Luo Xi made his move, he knew something was wrong.

The Fairy Godmother waved the magic wand in her hand, and a ripple rippled out. The Battlefield Infantry, bearing the brunt of the attack, immediately screamed. The armor on his body was actually burned red by some kind of force.

As a result, the infantry inside instantly turned into grilled iron.

In addition, the vengeful ghost was also knocked down by a force. The Fairy Godmother transformed back into the monster with a long neck and long limbs.

This 'form' seemed to greatly increase her power.

The next moment, she reached out and grabbed Luo Xi.

With a bang, Luo Xi was slammed hard on the ground. The other party's pale and withered hands were as cold as ice.

"Caught you, little mouse!" The Fairy Godmother sneered at this moment, with a playful look on her pale face.

Luo Xi expressionlessly shook the Soul-Seizing Bell that he had been holding in his hand.

The sound of the bell was like a heavy punch, hitting the other party's face hard.

Scream, let go.

Luo Xi stared, pounced on her and stabbed three times in a row with the dagger in his hand.

Neck, chest, neck.

The other party shook his hand fiercely, knocking Luo Xi aside.

Blood spurted out, soaking the ground. It was unclear whether it was Luo Xi's blood or her blood.

This Fairy Godmother's combat power was extremely strong, no different from a monster.

"You will be consumed by pain and fire!" She screamed, waving her magic wand at Luo Xi.

The spell took effect.

A ball of flames ignited on Luo Xi's body.

But Luo Xi did not react at all. He quickly got up from the ground, and pounced on her again like a ball of flames. This time, he stabbed the Fairy Godmother in the chest with a knife, and at the same time bit her neck, pressing his body tightly against the Fairy Godmother's.

That kind of ruthlessness without a trace of fear, timidity, or hesitation, facing the Fairy Godmother's evil and cold eyes, actually completely suppressed the other party in terms of momentum.

Perhaps the actual combat power was not as good as the other party, but in the spiritual realm and belief, ten Fairy Godmothers could not be compared with Luo Xi.

The flames burned, doubling the pain.

Some people couldn't bear it and weakly chanted a spell.

The next moment, the flames disappeared.

But Luo Xi was still attacking, he slashed the hand holding the magic wand fiercely.

Then he continued to stab.

Puchi, puchi, slowly, the woman's body slumped in his arms.
