Chapter 622
Unfortunately, his entire body had stiffened from fear and refused to obey.
"I can't move, damn it!"
The arrows were close in the blink of an eye.
The Jie Xu Chu player could only shut his eyes tightly in terror.
Even though he knew the things in the game space wouldn't hurt him, only striking the General's phantom and deducting "320".
Yet the oppressive sensation of the entire sky filled with a rain of arrows and meteors.
Was truly terrifying.
No one could possibly remain completely unafraid.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!"
The arrows fell.
The Jie Xu Chu player in Seat Six, who had no cards left in hand.
Was the first to bear the brunt.
Losing one point of health.
Combined with the one point of health lost in the previous round during Jie Dian Wei's Southern Barbarian Invasion, leaving only two points of health remaining.
"Click! Click!"
Accompanied by a series of flashes of blood.
The sound of stamina deduction echoed through the competition venue.
Starting from the Jie Xu Chu player in Seat Six and ending with the Jie Dian Wei player in Seat Four.
Except for the Jie Guan Yu player in Seat Eight, the Lord player in Seat One, and the Jie Guo Jia player in Seat Two, who all played a Dodge.
All other players had their stamina reduced to two points!
The players present.
Were mostly aggressive Generals.
With high damage output, but their defense outside of their turn was basically zero.
However.
After one round of arrows was fired.
The sharp arrows flashing with cold light across the sky, making one shiver just by looking at them.
Showed no sign of diminishing at all.
The players present.
Except for Gu Xuan, the instigator who played Ten Thousand Arrows, who felt nothing.
The rest of them.
Without a single exception, had trembling calves.
They had to remember that thousands upon thousands of sharp arrows were above their heads.
Who could not be afraid?
Even if they lowered their heads.
The back of their necks felt ice-cold.
The phrase "like a thorn in the back" applied here.
Was by no means an exaggeration.
If not for the many players watching at the competition venue.
They would have wished to hide under the card table immediately.
Let the Generals lose health if they must.
But at least don't make them face such terrifying mental oppression!
"Whoosh, whoosh!"
The sharp sound of breaking the air came from overhead.
The arrows approached again.
The seven players could not help but feel their hair stand on end.
Trembling as they looked down.
Only the Liu Qi player, after hearing the response prompt sound from the game space.
Forced himself to endure the fear, rallied his spirit, and bit his tongue.
Persisted in throwing the last Dodge from his hand area to dodge the damage.
"Crack, crack, crack!!"
A sound like beans bursting.
Continuously rang out across the venue.
The stamina of the players present kept shattering.
The Jie Guo Jia player in Seat Two had no Dodge; his last point of stamina flowed away.
Entering the near-death state.
A rescue progress bar appeared.
He was just about to use a Peach to pull his stamina back.
But, in the next moment.
He shifted his gaze.
Because...
His gaze was drawn to a wisp of golden light behind Gu Xuan.
It was a massive golden coffin, entirely golden in hue.
Adorned on the coffin were countless exquisite gems and pearls of jade.
Golden and silver treasure lights intertwined, shining across the competition arena obscured by myriad arrows.
Exuding an infinite sense of luxury.
Zhang Xuan and the phantom of her twin sister beside her bowed to all players present.
Then, with hands pressed to their navels and smiling faces, the two leaned backward, lying down inside the coffin.
"Your Majesty adorns my thoughts with gold and jade; why not share eternal slumber with me..."
"Share eternal slumber with me~"
The desolate lingering echo reverberated through the competition arena.
Sending shivers of goosebumps over every player present.
A player near death triggered the skill 【Lavish Burial】!
The coffin's treasure light shone upon the deck of cards.
In an instant, cards of four different suits from the deck
entered Gu Xuan's hand area.
At the same time,
the Jie Guo Jia player snapped back to awareness amidst the game space's prompt sound.
The blood on his face seemed sucked away by Zhang Xuan, leaving him utterly pale.
He mechanically shifted his gaze away from Zhang Xuan's figure entering the coffin.
The Jie Guo Jia player was thoroughly terrified by this eerie scene.
Under the game space's prompt sound, he finally tremblingly discarded a Peach.
"Peach!"
Emerald green light flickered over the Jie Guo Jia phantom.
Slowly sealing the large hole pierced by the sharp arrows.
"Proceeding in order, Liaodong can be secured..."
The Jie Guo Jia player recovered a bit of vitality from his near-death state.
Then, he drew two more cards from the deck.
"That scared me to death! I thought I was watching a horror movie!"
"It's truly a ghostly thing, damn it. I'm sitting on the sofa, yet I feel someone clawing at my feet."
