Cataclysm: Precognition system vs. luck system

Si Tiantian and Rong Xiu looked gloomy. It seemed that as long as the black fog existed, the black snake converter would not disappear.

No wonder there is no defense here, they can sneak in easily.

"It seems that the breakthrough lies with the Sea Goddess."

Si Tiantian muttered in a low voice.

At this time, a breeze gently blew up the curtains outside.

"Si Tiantian, Si Tiantian..."

A cold whisper sounded behind her, as if it could bewitch people and drag them into the abyss. Si Tiantian could not resist being immersed in it and began to feel dazed. She subconsciously wanted to turn around and respond, but the contract with the Ecstasy Flower shook at this moment, pulling her back from the edge of the abyss.

"Ah——" She suddenly came back to her senses, then gasped for breath, her pupils dilated, with lingering fear in her heart, and a dense layer of cold sweat on her back.

Rong Xiu noticed something was wrong and looked over anxiously, "What's wrong?"

Si Tiantian pinched his sleeves hard with her fingers and opened her mouth to say something when she heard a roar from outside, "What are you doing? What a mess!"

"Village chief, the village chief is here..."

Si Tiantian and Rong Xiu looked at each other, suppressed their words, and quickly slipped out of the inner room.

A gloomy old man walked into the gate of the Temple of Poseidon. The villagers who were glanced at by him lowered their heads and shrank into quails in fear.

"Hmph." The old man snorted coldly, "Don't disturb the Sea Goddess's peace and quiet. Put your things down and leave."

"But Village Chief, the fish and shrimp are still on the ground..."

The old man glared at him with a gloomy look, "Useless idiot, you can't even handle such a small matter. Get out now, I'll clean it up."

"Yes Yes Yes."

The villagers responded quickly, not daring to stay any longer, and then walked out one after another.

Rong Xiu pursed his lips, holding Si Tiantian in his arms. He glanced towards the inner room with a gloomy and murderous look, then he raised his feet and followed the villagers out.

At the entrance of the Temple of Poseidon, the wind blew and a chill came over her back, and Si Tiantian was completely awake.

"What happened just now?" Rong Xiu lowered his eyes and looked at her, his eyes full of worry.

Si Tiantian swallowed, her mind soothed by his gaze. Then she spoke with a heavy face, "Just now, a voice called my name from behind me. That voice was very evil and carried a strong sense of bewitching power. Most people would find it difficult to withstand it."

Rong Xiu frowned, and the thought of the Sea Goddess, whose whereabouts were unknown, became more prominent in his mind, and he became even more alert.

At this time, the accident happened again.

"Oh no, oh no, someone's dead..."

The scream pierced her eardrums, and with obvious fear, Si Tiantian's heart suddenly tightened. Then her beautiful eyebrows and eyes frowned, and she exhaled slightly and said, "Let's go and take a look."

Rong Xiu was worried, a gloomy look flashed in his eyes. He looked in the direction of the voice, then retracted his gaze, lowered his eyes, grabbed Si Tiantian's hand, and wrapped her hand in his palm before he was willing to take a step forward.

Si Tiantian raised her eyes in surprise, and looked sideways at his delicate and indifferent profile. His face was pale and cold, as if frozen with ice, and he had an aloof and arrogant demeanor that kept strangers away. However, his palm was scorching hot, and this heat burned all the way to her heart, thump thump—

My heart couldn't help but beat violently, and my steps became a little erratic.

Isn't the villain a little too good-looking, and a little too hot...

On a small road in the village, there were many villagers and players surrounding it, and the male and female protagonists Bi Shang and Xu Miaoyi were also there.

Si Tiantian also saw her uncle and Fang Tianling peeking out from the crowd. She patted her slightly hot face, not daring to look in Rong Xiu's direction, and walked towards her uncle.

Rong Xiu held her hand and was naturally taken over.

"Uncle, what happened? Who died?"

When Li Huaijue heard the voice, he turned around and saw his niece. He did not hide it and told her what he knew in a heavy tone.

"The deceased was named Lin Guangsheng. I knew him before. He was a coal boss who made his fortune at the coal mines. He was very generous. Yesterday, when we were having dinner at a small restaurant, he ordered a whole table of dishes. He was the one who owed the most debt. After Bi Shang's debt was divided among us, he was ranked second."

Si Tiantian's eyes flashed, "Little uncle thinks he died because he owed too much debt?"

Li Huaijue nodded, then shook his head, "I'm not sure, I just think it might be related."

"His death was bizarre. Captain Qu from the Special Office for the Oddities examined him. Aside from the non-fatal bloody holes on his body caused by piranhas, he had no other external injuries. It didn't look like he was murdered. And if he was murdered, the last thing on his face wouldn't be a smile.

Furthermore, the old lady at the diner said that anyone who tries to dine and run away will be punished by the Sea Goddess. Lin Guangsheng earned even less money than I did after our trip to the sea. Knowing there's no hope of repaying his debt, he might have other ideas, and then be punished by the Sea Goddess, leading to this strange death."

After saying this, Li Huaijue scratched his head embarrassedly, "But this is just my guess."

Si Tiantian felt that what her uncle said made sense, especially after what happened in the inner chamber of the Temple of Poseidon. It was very likely that the Poseidon hiding behind the scenes would deceive the players and cause their deaths by unknown means.

"Were there any witnesses to his death?"

Li Huaijue shook his head. "The villagers said this is a small road and few people pass by. I asked around but no one said they had seen it."

Fang Tianling came over and said enthusiastically, "I asked the villagers. The stone house on the other side of the path belongs to Cui'er. Cui'er might have seen something, but Cui'er is usually a strong and fierce girl. The villagers don't dare to ask her about something as unlucky as a death, so we can only ask her ourselves."

Si Tiantian was surprised. "Cui'er, the Cui'er who was standing next to Bi Shang and crying? Bi Shang is her savior. If we ask Bi Shang, he will definitely be able to find out."

The players, who were already feeling gloomy because of the deaths around them, immediately seemed to have found a breakthrough when they heard this. They excitedly echoed, "Right, right, right. Let Bi Shang go ask."

"As long as we don't find out how Lin Guangsheng died, I'll be worried that he'll suffer the same fate."

Tong Lulu and Xu Miaoyi were unhappy when they heard this. They had just managed to drive Cui'er away from Bi Shang with great difficulty. Now Bi Shang went over to ask, wasn't that just sending a sheep into the tiger's mouth?

Bi Shang himself was not too happy about it. He found Cui'er, the village girl, too eye-catching to look at her for even a second.

Si Tiantian raised an eyebrow. "It's okay if Bi Shang doesn't go. Anyway, according to current speculation, if Lin Guangsheng's death is related to his debts, then Bi Shang, who has the second-highest debt, won't live long."
