It's not too much to say that a beauty is a little bit stronger

【Main quest announced】

Mission Name: Fate-Defying Person

[Mission Description: Three people who defy fate are hiding in this world. Your mission is to find and execute these three.]

[Friendly reminder: When those who defy fate are executed, the system will issue a reminder! ]

[Don't forget you still have four days to complete the side quests. Good luck!]

The side quest is to find out the existence of the Mirror God. If the quest fails, a penalty will be triggered.

Xiao Huai didn't know what the punishment would be.

Maybe it was physical and mental torture, or maybe it was…death.

After Lu Yuanshi rubbed Xiao Huai's cheek, his eyes suddenly fell on a corner of the room.

Xiao Huai looked in the direction he was going.

There, there was an old clock hanging. The dial of the clock had a pale yellow old texture and was covered with fine cracks on the surface.

The edge of the clock face was inlaid with dull gold decorations, but the luster of the metal had long since faded, leaving only mottled marks.

But what really caught Xiao Huai's attention was the strange pointer.

The hour and minute hands do not move forward clockwise, but slowly move backward counterclockwise.

The hour hand on the clock points to 12 o'clock, but it keeps moving towards 11 o'clock, as if silently counting down something.

He frowned slightly, realizing that this was no ordinary clock and was most likely a hidden condition or clue for the first level.

At the moment when the atmosphere was tense, the yellow-haired man suddenly attacked. His pupils flashed with a cold light. Before everyone could react, he pushed the man who proposed to abstain hard into the lava.

"See you never again." The yellow-haired man smiled lightly.

The man screamed, lost his balance, and waved his hands wildly in the air, trying to grab something to stop himself from falling.

But his fingers only grasped at nothing, and his eyes were filled with despair and fear.

At that moment, gravity pulled him towards the hot magma, and his screams echoed in the air, piercing and desperate.

As soon as his body touched the magma, his skin was swallowed by the hot liquid, making a "hissing" sound.

The fiery red magma rolled and quickly corroded his limbs and torso.

The man's face was twisted in pain, his mouth opened wide as he let out a final, shrill scream, but the hot lava engulfed his figure.

The raging fire devoured everything of his body, his flesh turned to ashes, and even his bones quickly evaporated in the high temperature, leaving only a few wisps of black smoke that disappeared on the surface of the scorching magma.

The air was filled with a burnt smell that made people feel stuffy in their chests.

Everything happened so quickly that no one stepped forward to stop it, and no one raised any objections.

Instead, the corners of a few people's mouths unconsciously rose slightly, as if a dark corner that had been suppressed for a long time in their hearts was finally released.

At this moment, a cold female voice rang out in the room: "Congratulations, you have been granted a two-hour extension."

"We're saved. At least the collapse has stopped now." Someone began to murmur.

The yellow-haired man stood there, a gleam of victory in his eyes. The killing just now made him the dominant player in this game.

He knew that as long as he continued like this, he would survive, and others would inevitably be forced to participate in this cruel survival game.

Five more people are missing... The yellow-haired man muttered to himself, making his next plan.

His eyes moved quickly around the room, carefully measuring everyone's expression and state.

Those standing in the corner trembling had fear in their eyes, while some of the calmer contestants were obviously thinking about how to protect themselves.

Just then, the atmosphere in the room began to change.

Someone moved.

A tall and thin man approached the yellow-haired man and quietly walked behind him, with a calculating gleam in his eyes.

A slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said softly, "Brother, you are very courageous. I am the most straightforward person. How about we cooperate?"

The yellow-haired man didn't look back, but just glanced at her lightly out of the corner of his eye, and a subtle tacit understanding was formed in an instant.

The smile on the yellow-haired man's lips deepened slightly, and he was obviously not surprised by this sudden solicitation.

"Cooperation? Haha, of course." He sneered and slowly turned his head. "But you have to understand that cooperation also has a price."

The tall and thin man didn't care about the yellow-haired man's subtext.

He nodded gently and whispered, "Don't worry, I know what I should do. As long as we can survive together, you can ask me to do anything."

In the tense atmosphere, several other people also began to act quickly. Several contestants looked at each other and began to realize that only by forming gangs could they have a chance of survival in the upcoming killing.

There was anxiety and determination in their eyes as they gradually approached the yellow-haired man and formed a small alliance.

"Count us in," one of the women stepped forward, unabashedly trying to hide her desire to survive. "Everyone knows someone has to die. If that's the case, we might as well choose our targets ahead of time and not waste any time."

As soon as these words were spoken, the few people who were originally hesitant began to make decisions quickly.

They instinctively moved closer to the yellow-haired man, hoping to ensure their own safety by joining his camp.

The yellow-haired man slowly scanned these eyes that were eager to survive, and his inner pride became more and more obvious.

Fear and death make people lose their rationality, and he can use this chaos to establish his own power system.

"Very good." There was a hint of amusement in the yellow-haired man's voice. "Since you all understand the rules of this game, let's choose our targets. A few of the remaining people will definitely die."

The air in the room suddenly turned icy cold.

Those who stood in the corner thinking alone had already felt the approaching danger.

Xiao Huai stood aside. He didn't move, but suddenly said, "Do you want to die so badly?"

The voice echoed in the room, and when it fell, everyone's attention was subconsciously drawn to it.

The yellow-haired man narrowed his eyes slightly, and the smug smile on his face suddenly disappeared a little, replaced by a gloomy sneer.

He looked at Xiao Huai, with a hint of sarcasm on his lips, and said in a cold tone: "What are you talking about? Or do you want to join us and deliberately say this to attract attention?"

The red eyes appeared even colder under the dim light, carrying an indescribable sense of mystery and oppression.

He ignored the yellow-haired man's provocation, but instead slowly glanced at everyone in the room and chuckled.

"Do you really think you can survive by killing people?"

No one understood what Xiao Huai meant at first, but when they followed his gaze, they also noticed the clock moving backwards.

"Look... the needle is moving counterclockwise?!"
