Chapter 3999 The Song of the Purple Moon (50) — And so, the witch played a Dream Card!
Without warning, a sphere of light, condensing a large amount of what the [Labyrinth Will] craved, slowly fell to the ground!
In an instant, nightmare energy far exceeding what the Gorge of Freedom and Wildness could provide surged wildly through the entire Golden Nightmare Labyrinth!
And this was only the moment the light sphere had just begun to be released!

It felt like it was about to burst, with large amounts of fluid being secreted from every part of its "body"... referring to fresh blood!

The heart of the maze was also beating rapidly. If it had a maximum heart rate, it should have already exceeded that limit!

"Oh, ah..."

Thump thump thump thump thump thump thump thump—!
Seeing the little-eyed, fleshy ball twitching all over, Boss Luo closed his eyes again and entered a state of self-restraint.

For him, constantly resisting the instinctive self-protection of the "shop manager" was not an easy task... It was even a little more tiring than fighting Miss Long.

Evolving the Golden Nightmare Maze now is a last resort; if it still doesn't succeed, Boss Luo won't consider continuing to evolve the maze.

After the [Super Artifact] comes the [Artifact of the Other Shore]... The cost-effectiveness is really too low - and, the [Root] will probably be really dissatisfied, since it's going to be a loss.

……

……

……

……

boom--! ! ! !

Faced with the onslaught of the Radiant King, Lady Shinone didn't have a good solution—she disdained to dodge; everyone is a projection of creation, so who does she look down on?

Creating a hammer out of thin air... Lady Xinone actually created a hammer, and a very large one at that—a precision strike!
In addition to the ability to create things out of thin air, magic creators can even endow their creations with different attribute characteristics!
Precision strikes are not only guaranteed to hit and knock the target away, but they also have a 20% chance of stunning the target!
"you……"

[Radiant King] felt a tremendous force slam into him, followed by an intense dizziness—even he couldn't help but see stars!
With this hammer blow, the [Radiant King] was sent flying, crashing heavily into the wall... but he was still manageable to be pried out, after all, as one of the three kings under the emperor of the [Holy Demon] Empire, his base stats were frighteningly high.

"Ha, [Radiant King], don't you remember me?"

"You are... Madame Sinon?!"

"It's been a long time, [Radiant King]!" Lady [Shinone] sneered. "I told you, didn't I? Anyone from the [Holy Demon] Empire, I'll kill them all!"

The King of Glory instantly pulled himself out of the wall, his face terribly grim... Testarossa's power far exceeded his expectations; even the Temple of Glory was almost destroyed, and now the extremely troublesome Lady Shinone had appeared!
As one of the top magic creators of his era, Lady Shinone has always been known for being vengeful and ruthless!

Right now, "I" am surrounded by formidable enemies!

Of course, as one of the three kings of the Holy Demon Empire, the Radiant King has encountered far more dangerous predicaments than this one... and he is not afraid at all!

The Great Temple of Glory will re-form – as long as it is not truly destroyed, it can be manifested countless times!

But the Radiant King did not immediately resume the battle... because there were too many uncertainties in this place!

Besides the abnormally powerful Testarossa and the troublesome Lady Shinone, there are also some other unidentified individuals here!

The air became quiet!

Testarossa looked around the space with slight surprise—besides Long Xiruo and [Xiang Feihu], whom she had already met, the two restless [Black Cat] sisters were also there…

Madame Xinonne... that name also left a deep impression on my memory.

And there is...

Her gaze automatically fell on the last maid... She instinctively felt a sense of avoidance, which stirred up quite a few waves in the heart of Princess Testarossa, who was usually calm!

Testarossa hesitated for a moment, then looked at the witch in the arena with a half-smile, "Ms. [Black Cat], so you're here... What, don't you want to team up with me anymore?"

—I f***ing…

Is it really true that bad luck can make you trip and fall even when walking on flat ground?

The witch never expected to run into him again so soon—what had she just said to [Shohiko]...? She was forced into it!

A choice... no, it seems the time for a gamble has come!
Should you choose "Your Highness," or the more familiar [Shoshitora] and [King of Pirates] side?
Judging from the situation, Zhang Bolu, the "King of Pirates," seems to be in a precarious position... As for "Your Highness," he clearly has the upper hand!

However, there were simply too many unstable factors on site...

That eight-foot-tall lady named [Shinone], with an amazing figure, seems to have a grudge against [King Glorious]? The enemy of my enemy is often not the enemy at all. Could Lady [Shinone] choose to join forces with "His Highness"?
However, the [Xiang Fei Hu] team also has a violent maniac who almost smashed the cockpit, which cannot be ignored.

"Ms. Black Cat, why are you so quiet?" Testarossa said with a smile. "I remember you kept saying you wanted to join our team. What, are you going to change your mind so soon?"

—Shut up!

The witch remained silent, her expression unchanged.

[Xiang Feihu], who was actually quite intolerant of any falsehood or deception, frowned immediately. "[Black Cat], what's going on? Didn't you say you were kidnapped and forced?"

"Huh?" Testarossa's gaze sharpened slightly. "Ms. [Black Cat], tell me, was I forcing you?"

The death stare...

Miss Witch was instantly at a loss. She looked at Testarossa, then at [Xiang Feihu], and finally at Ah Xiruo with her unfriendly gaze, before revealing a sheepish expression.

Her body trembled slightly, looking like a cowardly, timid, and playful good girl. "I...I just wanted to survive in this dangerous place with my sister...What did I do wrong...Why, why are you forcing me like this...Xiao Meng!"

After saying that, the witch opened her arms wide and hugged Xiaomeng tightly. "Little sister!! Why is our life so miserable?! We ran into a scumbag, got swindled out of all our savings, and now we have to go through this... My poor little sister, I'm so sorry, I couldn't give you a happy life!"

At this moment, Xiaomeng was speechless... Humans cannot, at least not?

She felt she could barely continue acting—it was just too embarrassing!
The main thing is, if there were no other people in this scene, it would be fine, but at this moment... Xiaomeng's gaze swept almost imperceptibly over the maid.

"It's alright, sister." Xiaomeng sighed, gently patted the witch's shoulder, and whispered, "No matter what, we'll be together! After all, we're best friends bound by a [contract]! As long as you don't abandon me, I'll never leave you, my dearest 'sister'!"

This shows how deep their sisterly bond is.

Upon hearing this, the maid couldn't help but show a thoughtful expression... then she seemed to understand something, and then showed a slightly strange expression.

"Hey! My dear sister!"

"elder sister!!"

"...Enough already!" Ah Xiruo couldn't stand it anymore and snapped impatiently, "Who are you pretending to be? You just spout nonsense without telling the truth!"

This situation truly requires the iron-willed and unyielding true dragon of China to quell it!

Ah Xiruo snorted coldly, "Ms. [Black Cat], is it? I don't care if you're willing or forced, I'm giving you another chance! With Hua Mei, or with her!"

Ah Xi Ruo pointed directly at Testarossa and sneered, "If you choose to be with her, I won't be so polite to you!"

Looking at the dented cockpit, Miss Witch's heart skipped a beat... What if that fist had hit her instead?

Honestly, she's just a soft, water-based mage, okay? She's really not durable...

She could only look at [Xiang Feihu] pitifully.

But Li Huamei clearly acquiesced to Ah Xiruo's statement and cast a sharp glance at her—if you are on the pirate side, then I will protect you; if you betray me, then I will eliminate you.

"Dream..."

The witch's urgent voice suddenly rang in Xiaomeng's ears.

Xiao Meng simply blinked.

"You said before that you could use the 'guaranteed win' buff in advance, right?"

Xiao Meng nodded gently.

"Dream, actually I feel that money isn't that important, right? The key is people. You have to be alive before you can spend money, right?"

Xiao Meng smiled and asked, "Big sister, what are you going to 'bet' on?"

The witch's eyes immediately revealed a thoughtful expression.

What to bet on...

Betting on whether you can survive.
No, no, no, gambling like that is too risky... and there are many ways to survive, too many uncertainties—we need something more targeted!

Since we're going to gamble, and it's a life-or-death situation like this, shouldn't we go all out?!

As a regular at the Void Casino, the witch, who could even pawn off something as cheap as original flavor when she got ruthless, gritted her teeth and said, "You bet I can be the ultimate winner this time!"

Xiao Meng blinked again.

The witch asked anxiously, "So, can we gamble on this?"

"It should... be possible, right?"

"What the hell should it be?" The witch's heart skipped a beat. The Golden Egg Princess's tone was filled with strong uncertainty.

"Because my abilities also have a limit..." Xiaomeng said helplessly, "Under normal circumstances, there is no problem, but if there are too many interfering factors, or if the level that needs to affect the win rate is too high... deviations will still occur!"

...Does it mean there are too many powerful people here?

The witch's heart skipped a beat... In her understanding, figures like "His Highness" and the [Radiant King] were practically the top tier of [Radiant Moon]... perhaps even stronger? She wasn't sure!
Regardless, they clearly possess the ability to influence fate to some extent.

After all, someone who has risen to such a level must have an extremely high level of legendary status... having integrated countless destinies, they must possess inherent resistance.

Xiaomeng's "Inevitable Victory in Gambling" is essentially an extremely rare "fate" type of ability?

"...Never mind, just gamble!" The witch took a deep breath. "Even just increasing my odds a little bit more will do!"

"Then I'll take the 'gamble'?" Xiaomeng nodded. "But, big sister, I feel that this gamble will be very taxing, and I won't be able to use this ability for a very, very long time!"

"How long?"

"Several hundred ordinary years, I guess? I can't say for sure!"

Developed...do we still have to wait so long?
Never mind, survival comes first—what's so scary about being poor?!
……

"Hey! What are you two sisters whispering about?" Ah Xiruo's impatient voice rang out again.

Miss Witch glanced quickly at Xiaomeng—having received confirmation from the other's eyes, she had already made up her mind.

...But did Xiaomeng really activate her ability?

Why do I feel like I don't feel anything at all—why don't I have that feeling of divine assistance when I enter a casino and sit in front of the gambling table?

As a gambling addict, you've probably all had that feeling of divine intervention, right?
Then, the witch took a deep breath!

She suddenly looked up, glaring at Testarossa, "Hmph!! We sisters only pretended to cooperate because of your military coercion! I am a pirate, and a 'Great Pirate' of the Pirate Alliance, a pillar and cornerstone of the alliance! How could I possibly join a guy of unknown origin like you, doing something that would harm the Pirate Alliance or even betray my King Zhang Bolu!"

Regardless of how much of what she said was true, [Xiang Feihu]'s gaze softened a bit—she loved hearing this kind of talk!

Ah Xiruo rolled her eyes at him, saying, "You're smart enough to know what's good for you."

Testarossa smiled indifferently and said, "Is this your choice, Ms. Black Cat? ... However, personally, I also despise those who betray others."

The witch felt a sudden tightness in her chest, but since she had already wet her hair, she had no choice but to continue down this dark path!
"Bah! I, Lady Black Cat, was born a member of the Pirate Alliance, and even in death, I will raise the banner of the Alliance!!" The witch's magic erupted to a certain degree. "Pirates, only the will to freedom cannot be extinguished!!"

Testarossa chuckled noncommittally.

But at that moment, a series of rapid drumbeats suddenly rang out!
Golden Drum, [Dragon Sparrow Breaking the Formation]!
It wasn't just a blurry phantom of one or two large drums; in an instant, all nine golden drums materialized completely... and the golden drummer was now covered in a layer of golden armor!
"Boss—!" [Xiang Feihu] looked in Zhang Bolu's direction with a mixture of surprise and delight!
Suddenly, the Pirate King opened his eyes, and the Dragon Sparrow Ring stuck in the ground emitted a series of loud sword-like sounds, echoing the Dragon Sparrow Breaking Formation Melody!
"Hahahaha!!!" The Pirate King instantly soared into the sky, "What a fine line! 'Only the will to freedom is immortal'! I am indebted to you!"

Amidst the unrestrained laughter, the nine golden drums suddenly shattered, but immediately, as if reborn from a cocoon, brand new drums emerged from the old ones!

No longer dazzling with gold, it has become more restrained and ancient. The drum body is engraved with carvings of some kind of mythical beast, and on one of the drums, a huge beast shadow has been formed!

"That's... the mythical beast, the Kui Niu?"

Ah Xiruo's gaze narrowed slightly, as if she saw some kind of mythical beast from ancient Chinese legends.

"Boss's divine technique has evolved!" [Xiang Feihu] exclaimed in surprise, "I never expected that Boss would break through his limit under such circumstances!"

A beam of divine light instantly emanated from the large drum containing the divine beast Kui Niu and entered Xiang Fei Hu's body, bathing her in a golden robe!
"The effect of the [Dragon Sparrow Breaking Formation Melody] has increased by more than five times!"

Li Huamei exclaimed in surprise!
This is a qualitative leap for Zhang Bolu's [Eternal Divine Art]!
At the same time, a divine light shot out from the [Kui Niu] drum toward the witch... but the increase was obviously not as great as that of [Xiang Fei Hu]!
But even the witch couldn't help but shudder – she never imagined she would one day enjoy the treatment of the [Dragon Sparrow Breaking Formation Song]... However, she was probably just a temporary replacement.

Finally, the [Kui Niu] drum shot out an incredibly thick beam of divine light, which landed on Ah Xi Ruo!
Ah Xiruo and Zhang Bolu, who had just broken free from his inner demons, exchanged a quick glance... but neither of them said anything.

The true dragon of Shenzhou knew that this was the Pirate King's reward for his "dragon aura"... But what about this divine light?

Ah Xi Ruo took a deep breath.

—It's back, it's back... that feeling of the boundless blue of the Divine Dragon of China!

then……

[Stigmata], activate!

Ah Xiruo's gaze sharpened, and she instantly abandoned the +1 template of the God King [Odin] and made a copy of Testarossa!

roar--!!!!!
The shadow of the golden dragon instantly shot into the sky from Ah Xiruo's body!

"This is……"

Facing the golden dragon shadow that possessed an extremely ancient and desolate aura, Testarossa's expression darkened—Zhang Bolu's divine magic had indeed evolved, and it was a rare positive evolution.

Even so, Testarossa didn't seem to care too much.

only……

This golden dragon... seems to have reached a point where it can pose a significant threat to her.

—Excluding the category of [Eternal Divine Art].

……

The witch swallowed hard, then stiffly turned her neck to look at Xiaomeng, hesitant to speak.

Xiao Meng tilted her head...so cute!
No way, no way, no way!
Could this be the true power of "always winning at gambling"?!

However, to be fair, Xiaomeng's "Inevitable Victory in Gambling" is truly a phenomenal skill! She would call it the strongest!
This is way too effective!
"Your Highness," I'm asking you, how are you going to win?!
