꧁ Let the game begin. ꧂
"I don't know, everything is strange and we can't understand it and if we don't do something we will die" exclaimed a young man from the Wen clan.
"Mm... that bastard didn't explain the game to you" Wei Ying said scratching his head.
"Shit! If we don't do something those damn statues will move" a man shouted.
"And who are you?" Wen Chao asked.
"I'm no one important, someone who is here for the same reasons as you, just like those ten men," said the man, pointing to ten other men who were crouching in the distance.
"How did they get here?" Wei Ying asked.
"Ah, well... we are mercenaries who were on a trip and we were passing near here. Since we were hungry, we camped but we didn't know that it was demon territory and well, how can I say it, they caught us and put us here, my men and I didn't know anything or nor where we were until you showed up..." said the man, lowering his head.
"I see," Wei Ying exclaimed, thinking about the situation.
"But everything here are statues, I have never heard of monsters like these," commented Jiang Cheng, gaining the attention of everyone who was there.
"What do you mean?" said one of the men.
"If all the statues here can move...don't tell me that even the one that is sitting can too" Wei Ying exclaimed, scaring everyone since the one that was sitting was the largest statue in the place and if that one moved they would be lost later. They would die easily anyway since their powers did not return.
Everyone was silently looking at Wei Wuxian for what he had said except for one who was looking very carefully at the face of the largest statue but suddenly the eye of the statue moved looking at him and this scream alarmed everyone.
"Ah...the statue looked at me...it looked at me" the man shouted when he suddenly stopped and ran away Wei Wuxian shouted at him not to move but he didn't pay attention when suddenly the statue looked like it was going to do something. something and that was perceived by Wei Ying who immediately shouted "Everyone under cover" everyone did what he said except for the one who was still running when suddenly a golden ray came out of the statue's eyes, completely disintegrating the body of that man leaving everyone stunned.
eleven"Are you okay?" Wen Ruo Han asked.
"We're fine here!" said a group of men.
"Us too!" said others.
"Ah!!" shouted a woman who was holding onto her arm that did not completely disintegrate.
"He almost killed us," said one man. "I barely saw him. If it weren't for that young man who warned us, I would be dead," said the other young man.
"Don't move if we don't move they won't attack us, rest assured" Wen Ruo Han shouted.
"If you're right, leader Wen, don't move," Wen Wuxian exclaimed. Everyone sat on the floor, paying attention to what he said, while Wei Ying was trying to decipher the game with Lan Wangi and the two leaders, counting the four young people. .
"The game is strange but this here...doesn't seem like something basic" Wei Ying commented, looking at the large statue that was sitting without moving.
"What do you mean" Wen Chao said.
"Only those who move die. All people are alive because they listened to you," exclaimed Jiang Fengmian.
"Oh that's right" Wei Ying exclaimed.
"Wait a second, you shouted because you knew what was going to happen," the leader Wen shouted while everyone looked at him and Wei Wuxian didn't know what to do since everything was a confusion.
"If that is true, as I have known," said one man. "True, he is surely conspiring with Dilong," another man exclaimed.
"It's not because I sensed it, I saw the moment he moved," Wei Ying explained, although he knew that gaining her trust was going to be complicated.
"How do we know you're telling the truth?"
"I I..." but suddenly Lan Wangji spoke.
"These are commandments" exclaimed Lan Wangji.
"It's true," said Ji Zixuan.
"Why is there a commandment in a place like this?" asked Nie Huaisang.
"First worship the lord, second praise the lord, third test faith. Those who do not follow the commandments will not be able to live everything is written here" said Wei Wuxian touching a large rock that had the commandments written on it.
"I think...what does he mean, right?" Jin Zixuan said.
"Killing all of them would take us a long time, that would be impossible," exclaimed Jiang Cheng.
Everyone in the place looked at each other thinking about the situation they were in and the only ones they depended on were the leaders and that young man in black clothes since he seemed to know a lot, but that did not take away the fact that they distrusted him. After all, they witnessed the moment when he was talking to Dilong in the living room, although the situation between them seemed tense, it could just be a deception technique.
"I think the best thing at this time is to remain at your ease" said Jiang Fengmian.
"If you are right...when the situation calms down a bit we will try to run" exclaimed the leader Wen.
"It won't be easy anyway..." commented one of the mercenaries.
" As leader Wen said if we move we will be attacked even if we somehow manage to avoid them all, we still have to go for the guard statue. The man will probably never let us pass!... " Wei Ying thought.
"I'm not going to die like this," exclaimed one of the mercenaries when he suddenly stood up to run, going straight to the exit door. "I have a family to feed, I don't plan to die here," the man shouted.
"What are you doing? Don't move" Wen Chao shouted angrily.
" I can do it...I'll go through the door in a second" the man shouted when suddenly the giant statue moved and his eyes were filled with that light and "Bang" disintegrated that man before he reached the door.
"Shit" said jiang cheng while everyone was puzzled.
"It feels like these guys can kill us whenever they want, they can't..." said one of the mercenaries who hit the floor with his fists.
"It seems like it's easier than swatting a bug."
"He could annihilate all of us in an instant, so why don't you do it?" Nie Huaisang asked confused.
"I don't know," the Wen leader confessed, lowering his head.
"Even if it could, it doesn't kill us. The guard statue attacks us when we approach the door, The guard statue shoots us when we move. They attack in a pattern! A pattern? Could it be that..."
"What what?" Lan Wangji asked.
"There is a rule in this room" Wei Ying exclaimed, gaining everyone's attention.
"The commandments!....yes! that's it!!" Wei Wuxian said.
"What do you mean, come on, talk," Wen Chao shouted.
"Lan Zhan, what was the first commandment?" Wei Ying asked.
"The first was to worship the lord?" answered Lan Wangji.
"Listen, there is a rule in this game," Wei Wuxian explained, surprising everyone.
"What are you doing?" Leader Wen asked as Wei Wuxian was moving or rather standing up.
"If I'm right..." Wei Ying said alarming everyone.
"Are you crazy?" Jiang Cheng shouted.
"Those are the eyes of a man who seeks death or who has already experienced it," whispered leader Wen, surprising leader Jiang as he managed to hear what he said.
"He does not attack those who move." Wen Ying exclaimed.
