Chapter 1012: Chapter 1012: Medusa 2
Another pair of eyes?
Where is the other pair of eyes?
People subconsciously moved forward, wanting to get a closer look, but just as they took two steps, they heard the siren’s bell-like laughter:
"Looking for my eyes? I advise you not to do that, because if you find them, naturally, I will see you, and then... you will turn into stone."
Everyone froze, not daring to move.
The game hadn’t started yet, and they hadn’t gotten their swords; turning into stone at this point would be too much of a loss!
"Ah... but, if everyone is afraid to come forward, then the game cannot continue, so there are rewards as well." The siren said cheerfully, "When I use the other pair of eyes, the person closest to me can ask me a question."
"Is that also considered a reward?" someone questioned, "How does asking questions benefit us?"
"Ah..." the siren slowly twisted her slender waist, leisurely, "Isn’t this reward good? I thought you would be happy... Don’t you have any doubts about the game? Don’t you want to know the situation of your friends and family now?"
Hearing this, the expressions on everyone’s faces changed more or less.
Standing here now, it was almost impossible to say that they had no doubts about the game, including Shen Mo, who had always been skeptical about this so-called game and system.
The siren said, "If there are no issues, let us begin..."
Shen Mo asked aloud, "What counts as attacking? Does merely holding a sword count?"
A few people bending down to pick up swords paused mid-action, turning their gaze towards the distant siren.
—If holding a sword was also considered attacking, being caught would turn them into stone, but if they didn’t take the swords, how could they kill Medusa?
The rules were clear, to kill Medusa, they needed to use the swords; these swords would change into the King’s Sword! Hence, they couldn’t use other methods of attack; strangling, poisoning, beating, none of them were viable!
"If I see you moving, then... I will judge that as ’attacking’," the siren’s eyebrows slightly raised, her smile enchanting.
"What counts as ’moving’?" another person asked, "Does blinking count? Breathing? Speaking? Do those count?"
Their lives were at stake, so they had to ask as comprehensively as possible.
"How could that be? That would be too harsh..." The siren laughed, her voice rising playfully and provocatively, "Only obvious actions will turn you into stone."
Although she said this, they were still not at ease and guarded her vigilantly.
Her face was exceptionally beautiful, but it was covered with disgustingly tangled snake hair, the dense mass of grayish-green snakes contrasting her snow-white skin, presenting people with the extremes of beauty and ugliness, which caused great discomfort psychologically.
Fear, silently spreading...
Some braver ones picked up rusty swords from the ground and looked for suitable positions among the stalagmites, then set their gaze on the siren as if they were determined to win.
Shen Mo glanced to both sides, also picking up a rusty iron sword.
The rules of the game seemed like "Statues," he vaguely remembered some phrases from a nursery rhyme, one two three, statues, must not move, must not laugh, must not sing, must not yell, we are all statues...
So, before her second pair of eyes discovered him, he needed to rush to the front as quickly as possible to strike.
However...
Shen Mo squinted his eyes slightly, looking at the path ahead.
From his position to Medusa’s rock, it was about seventy to eighty meters, the ground covered with various sizes of stalagmites and slippery with moisture; progressing smoothly would be difficult, and furthermore... he still did not know where Medusa’s second pair of eyes were.
"Alright, we’ve talked a lot, can we start now?" the siren said with a smile, "I will perk up and play this round with you all, let’s start quickly, I still need to sleep afterward."
Everyone looked at each other.
