"Surprised that I have cards myself? As I said, I can satisfy all your desires, including playing cards of course."

The woman with her head sticking out of the water said with a smile, still pushing the deck of cards to Xia De with one hand, but Xia De still didn't see her shoulder.

"Come over and check? I don't have any special cards."

"No, I don't think so, but I have special cards."

Xia De shook his head, before he won the game, he would never take the initiative to approach that pool.

"It's okay, let's add your Vientiane Impermanence card, it will be more interesting."

The woman chuckled, Xia De gave her a surprised look, reached into his pocket, and put [Origin·Balance] and [Origin·Silver Moon] into the card pile. In this way, in Shade's 54-card deck, there are eight special rules cards.

This woman actually knew about the [Vientiane Impermanence Card], and even knew that he had the Myriad Impermanence Card on him. Her danger level was higher than Xia De thought.

Even now, outsiders still don't know what they are facing. The only thing that is certain is that the other party is a relic, but he doesn't know the danger level, characteristics or even the most basic appearance.

There is no record in the book snatched from the murloc, Xia De can only vaguely guess that the other party has something to do with desire. Wealth, power, body, this woman can stir up the most primitive desires and emotions in people's hearts, but fortunately, Xia De's goal is very clear, and the other party can't satisfy his desire to become a god.

The woman asked:

"So, how do you play cards?"

Finger pads gently stroked the top of the deck, and then, because only one hand stretched out of the pool, she simply pulled out the cards in the middle of the deck and put them on the top, and stopped shuffling the cards after going back and forth a few times .

Xia De also stopped shuffling the cards with both hands. After thinking for a while, he sat down with his hands on the door frame, put his stack of cards in front of him, and then looked at the beautiful woman's head:

"We play the most basic rules, play three sets, best of three sets. If there is a tie, then the tie doesn't count."

"OK."

The woman laughed, she took the lead in drawing cards, but instead of drawing cards with her sleeveless arm, she bit the first card from the top of the pile with her mouth. Shaking her head lightly, as her wet long hair splashed a little water out of the pool, the cards in her mouth flew in front of Xia De.

Moon three, of course, the card surface is not a pattern representing a number, but a special pattern. It was a gorgeous lady's gown worn by a puppet, and even though Shad was a man, he would have appreciated the design, the color scheme, and the little trimmings on the cuffs and skirt.

Shad also draws a card, Moon 5.

The two sides continued to draw cards, and the woman's second card was 13 of the Stars, which was a ruby ​​placed on a velvet pad in a wooden box. Xia De is the flower 7, which is 【Creation·Balance】. Holding this card, if the round is busted, then he can discard all cards and start over.

"Oh, everything is impermanent."

The woman sighed softly, and the smile on her face became more obvious:

"Your current burst of emotion is very interesting. This card is related to your ultimate desire. I can feel it. This desire is really wonderful."

Xia De didn't talk, and then the two drew cards again. The woman was Sun 6, and unfortunately, the card busted. Xia De is the flower 5, and the total of three cards is 17 points. He won the first round.

Neither side cheated, it was pure luck. Xia De didn't understand why the opponent could still smile so happily when he won. It was not a fake smile, but a smile from the heart.

"Play cards with me, what can you get?"

He couldn't help asking.

"I can see through your heart and see your desire."

This answer was as expected, Xia De did not directly start the second round, but asked again:

"So what do you think of my desire?"

"You are the greediest person I have ever met."

Because it was two out of three games, if Xia De won again, he would really have won. When drawing cards, he felt that even if he didn't have the good luck brought by the two founding cards, a woman still couldn't beat him this time.

As expected, the first card Shade drew turned out to be the king.

The woman smiled at the result, although she could try to draw blackjack to beat the king, but she just gave up:

"You won, you can leave."

The iron door on the opposite side of the pool creaked and opened automatically, allowing more sea breeze to flow in. The sound of waves could be heard vaguely, and it was obvious that the door was very close to the exit.

"Can you open the door yourself? Are you really imprisoned here? What do you want to do?"

Xia De put away his playing cards, and asked with a puzzled frown.

"I originally wanted to lure you to get a new soul and get myself out of here. But it's enough, I tasted your desire, it's enough for me."

"You... can leave too?"

Xia De took a step back subconsciously:

"It will take a little time, but the seals of those stinky murlocs are no longer effective. Speaking of which, even they don't know what I am."

"Then what are you?"

"You can come and see for yourself."

The woman's deck turned into a pool of water, and that hand was withdrawn into the pool, leaving only the head looking at Xia De by the pool.

"No, sorry, my curiosity is not that serious."

The length of the pool is about six or seven meters, and the limit distance of [Ragley's Jump] is ten meters. As long as the distance is calculated, he can move directly to the other side of the pool and then rush out the door, trying to avoid getting too close to the woman.

"I feel that you are regretting and you are afraid. No, even if you don't show up, the seal will be invalid. They don't know my power, they just happen to use the power of God to imprison me. If that thing stays here , I definitely can't leave, but that golden pearl has returned to the old temple in the abyss of the sea......"

The woman said softly, looking at Xia De's face with her beautiful eyes:

"You, want to know how to get it?"

Xia De's entire face was trembling, he tried his best not to say "want", the woman accurately discovered his desire this time.

"I still want to be one with you, but it's interesting to let you walk towards the end of your desire step by step, and watch your desire become stronger. Promise me a request, and I'll tell you how to get that pearl method, but also give you a gift. Of course, you can also leave directly. "

"any request?"

Xia De asked in a low voice, he knew he shouldn't ask at all, he should just leave right now.

"Come closer to the pool, look at me carefully, and tell me what you see."

Xia De is fully aware that now is not the time to let the greedy darkness occupy his heart, it is better to just leave the woman's words as air. But when it was really his turn to face the situation, his feet didn't move at all.

"Look~"

The head that looks like a work of art is chuckling:

"No one has no desire. And I am [desire]."

The voice next to her ear said nothing, and she would not interfere with Xia De's own thoughts. And Xia De also repeatedly weighed the status quo in his heart. In the end, he did not leave, but took a step forward.

There is still a drop of divinity on his body, this opportunity should be gambled no matter what. A few weeks ago, he even dared to face the gods in the blood feast for a drop of divinity. At this time, it was just a relic. He didn't lack the courage to face it, but he was just thinking about whether it was necessary.

"Courage, arrogance, caution, greed, desire, fear, hesitation, and determination. Your current emotions are really too rich."

The thing in the pool laughed, ducking its head back below the surface. There was no voice of the alluring woman, and a moment of silence was restored in the dark room again.

The water gurgles, and blue and white light shines from the bottom of the pool.

Amidst the sirens and bells, the life ring behind Xia De slowly emerged. In his heart, "she" was ready to ignite the divinity at any time, and the outsider took another step forward.

At this moment, he actually heard the sound of his own heartbeat. You know, even when he rushed to the charity dinner in the blood mist after meeting Miss Fei Lianna for the first time, he was not so nervous.

"So, what is that woman?"

The answer was revealed immediately, because Xia De took another step, and he clearly saw the appearance of the entire pool.

Unlike the pool leading to the bottomless abyss in the illusion, the depth and length of the pool are about the same. The water quality is quite clear, allowing Xia De to directly see the flat ground at the bottom of the water.

He saw the beautiful woman's head, saw the hands, saw the feet. But what he saw was not a person, what he saw was a mass of meat, a huge mass of flesh made up of a head, dozens of hands and dozens of feet.

It completely violates human aesthetics, the laws of nature, and the most basic rules.

In terms of what it looks like, it's barely a mermaid. The upper body of a human, the lower body of a fish. It's just that the upper body is made up of constantly shaking hands, and the lower body is made up of densely packed legs.

Just looking at it, the strong dizziness almost caused Xia De to fall into the water.

He clutched his forehead and shook his body a few times. Even with his eyes closed, the image of the "mermaid" that can induce the most primitive fear is still swaying in front of his eyes.

There are no springs under the pool at all, and the sound of gurgling is the head exhaling upward.

The pretty face looked at Xia De from the bottom of the water, and the weird hands and feet slapped the water body, not regretting that he didn't fall:

"Please look at me carefully, what did you see?"

There was no need to leave at this point, and after stabilizing his mind, Xia De opened his eyes and looked at the thing again. He didn't realize that [Gluttony] and [Greed] were shining at the same time on the life ring behind him.

If it is said that when entering the dark room, Xia De was only affected by the desire to induce darkness in his heart, then seeing that strange flesh and blood creature directly affected his body. No matter who created this horrible thing, the combination of strange beauty and utter chaos, the balance of the body will be affected by the mere gaze of mortals.

Even if the soul remains sane, a common body is a common body.

"What did you see?"

The head asked as if humming.

Xia De noticed that the back of his bare hand had already shown signs of skin dissolution and blood was about to ooze out. He also realized that looking at it from a close distance, the dark phantom in his heart began to emerge again.

The stranger stood there gritted teeth, bleeding from eyes, nose, mouth and ears at the same time:

"I saw......"

He wanted to describe the monster's appearance, but when the halo of the pool shook, the scene he saw actually changed. The monster disappeared in the pool, and the water in the pool became more and more turbid, and then another picture was shown like an oil painting.

"What do you see?"

The voice was still asking, but it seemed that it was no longer in the pool, but in all directions. Xia De looked at the picture displayed in the pool in shock, even the physical and mental pain were ignored at this moment:

"Is this... my desire?"

"What did you see?"

The voice was still asking questions, this time the voice came from behind Xia De:

"Seeing me, if mortals don't collapse, then you can see your truest desires, which will let you fully understand what you want. The most true..."

A pair of women's hands with dripping water and red nails climbed onto the life ring spinning behind Xia De, and [Gluttony] and [Greed] exuded the ultimate aura.

What Xia De saw was not becoming a god, not having endless wealth, not being surrounded by girls, not being Rhodes cards and cats, not even the idea of ​​returning to his hometown that was gradually abandoned.

What he saw was that he was standing in the bathroom on the second floor of the Place Saint Teresa, facing the mirror. Outside the mirror is Shade Hamilton, but in the mirror, there is actually a woman with long silver hair that is looming.

He held his breath:

"I see... another me?"

The outsider froze there as if struck by lightning, never expecting such a scene.

"Interesting, the truth corresponding to your endless desire is actually the desire for yourself. Your desire is yourself?"

That charming voice sounded in Xia De's ear. But different from usual, this time there was really something behind him, and he could even feel the sweet breath blowing against his ears.

"What I want to get is myself?"

Xia De's eyes widened, staring at the picture in the pool, trying to see clearly what the woman reflected in the mirror looked like.

After the outsider came to this world, the first question was "Who is she?" At this moment, he vaguely understood that perhaps his greatest desire was to become a god, but the deepest desire in his heart was actually...he felt extremely ridiculous.

"I know the ring magician system of the sixth era. Although your 'other me' is a bit strange, but she is you, you are her, and you actually have desires for yourself?"

The woman's voice was still whispering, with a smile in her tone:

"So that's why there is that terrible intensity of desire. I and ego and superego, me and another me, the front of the soul and the back of the soul. Narcissism and self-love, crazy and pathological pursuit, desire for oneself, Desire for one's own desire, and desire for desire's desire..."

Xia De's ears were itchy because of the woman's breathing.

The outsider was standing by the pool, but at some point, the "Mermaid" had left the pool~lightnovelpub.net~ That horrible fleshy body wrapped around him like a boa constrictor. Those pairs of legs were clasped tightly together, those hands grabbed his life ring, and that beautiful head was right behind him, and the slender eyes were extremely strange at this moment.

The "mermaid" is hunting, but the prey by the pool is motionless.

In the dark room, only the bottom of the pool has blue light. It clung to Xia De's body, sighed softly, and seemed to be singing in a low voice:

"[Gluttony], indulging in oneself, unable to extricate oneself.

【Greed】, never satisfied, longing for oneself.

If you can be born in the first era, you are eligible to compete for the Great Sin Brand;

If you can be born in the second era, you may...

If you can be born in the third era, you will definitely become an evil spirit after death;

If you can be born in the Quaternary, the chaotic dark age will be more interesting;

If you can be born in the Fifth Epoch, even witches will lament how terrifying you are.

It's so funny, but you were born in the Sixth Epoch. "

Dangerous and slender arms wrapped around his neck:

"Man, please tell me, why are you included in the story of the sixth century?"
