Chapter 16: Five People Remaining!

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

“How many people are still alive?”

Julie thought about it.

There were a total of eight people at the party that day. Three of them had died, and there were five left.

In other words, apart from her and her brother, there were three other people alive.

Chu He considered for a moment.

There were a total of five people.

That was 5,000 mutated cells, it was not a small sum.

“That creature let you run around without saying anything else?”

“She did.” Julie nodded fearfully.

“She set up a new rule for the game, which is that the remaining five of us will escape separately. As long as one of us finds the others, one of the two will definitely die.”

“Bloody Mary said that she would let the last survivor go.”

“So…” Chu He frowned.

“The purpose of you finding the student who suggested the psychic game is to fight him to the death. After all, once you meet him, one of you will definitely die.”

“Contact all of them. When all of you gather, if Bloody Mary shows up, I’ll exterminate her.”

After Chu He said that, Julie fell silent.

The reason was simple.

Those people would not believe her.

Under Bloody Mary’s scheme, she and her friends no longer had any trust among them.

Even her own brother might not believe her.

This was the Bloody Mary’s scheme, and it caused great internal conflict.

“Those must be your brother’s friends, right?”

Julie nodded. Clearly, the ones who came to her brother’s birthday party were her brother’s friends.

“Get your brother to contact them. Tell them that you’ve found an Advanced Mage from the Andrich Magic Academy. If everyone comes out and gathers, I can help you all get out of this predicament. Whether they believe me or not is up to them.”

After Chu He said that, Julie called her brother.

She repeated everything Chu He said.

Due to Bloody Mary, she could not meet her brother now.

Once they met, one of them would definitely die.

Of course, Julie did not want to see such a scene.

“Take a rest,” Chu He said as he glanced at Julie.

Julie’s dark circles were ridiculously deep. They were the deepest dark circles Chu He had ever seen. It was like someone had drawn them with a marker pen.

Julie had not slept in two days. Once she did, she would have nightmares, it was too terrifying.

“Okay.”

Although Julie had never seen Chu He’s abilities, she was already trusting Chu He fully because he was able to notice her problem.

Julie leaned over the coffee table and soon fell asleep.

After she fell asleep, Chu He watched her quietly.

Chu He wanted to see what would happen after Julie fell asleep.

About four to five minutes later.

A faint trace of black magic emerged from Julie’s body and gradually formed a connection with the paper on the table.

Oh?

Chu He was curious.

Even when she was asleep, there was a reaction to the black magic power?

[Devouring Black Magic Power. Mutated Cells +20]

[Devouring Black Magic Power. Mutated Cells +20]

[Devouring Black Magic Power. Mutated Cells +20]

….

Three notifications appeared in Chu He’s mind.

His mutated cells increased by another 60.

Then, Julie’s body began to tremble slightly as if she had been stimulated by something, and her expression became anguished.

Seeing Julie in such pain, Chu He reached out a hand and gently placed it on her shoulder.

The fire cells in his body instantly began to operate. A pure fire energy entered Julie’s body through Chu He’s hand.

It was not burning hot. Instead, it was warm.

The power of fire turned into a stream of heat that quickly washed away the black magic power in Julie’s body.

Julie woke up in a daze as she slowly opened her eyes.

She had a nightmare just now.

In this nightmare, she dreamed that she had entered a huge villa.

The owner of this villa was Queen Mary I, in other words, Bloody Mary.

In this empty villa, Bloody Mary began to hunt her down. Under the endless fear and cold, Julie felt a deadly threat.

She had not slept for so many days because once she fell asleep, she would have such nightmares.

Bloody Mary’s purpose was to torture them.

When they could not take it anymore, they would search for each other and willingly hand their lives over to Bloody Mary.

Just now, when Julie was about to collapse, a warm current flowed into her body.

She felt a wave of relief wash over her, and the cold feeling disappeared.

“Thank you!” Julie knew that it was Chu He who had helped her by dealing with the black magic curse, so she thanked him sincerely.

Although she had not slept for two days, the power of the flames just now had allowed her to recover some of her strength, and her dark circles were not as deep anymore.

Julie looked at Chu He with admiration.

From her point of view, Chu He was the only person she could rely on now.

Chu He’s action earlier also proved that he truly had the strength to resist Bloody Mary.
