Energy Storm Incoming: Survive or Transcend

Chapter 5

At the same time, an image of several cards lined up appeared in Lorna's mind.

This sudden reminder and change made the hairs on Lorna's back stand up. Her senses and defenses were heightened to the extreme. She heard the terrified screams of the girls in the same team, proving that she was not the only one who received the reminder.

"Stop screaming!" the short and fat middle-aged man shouted viciously. In a place like this, who knows what kind of unknown danger is hidden. The surroundings are so quiet that it is a little weird. The girl's scream is a little shrill and creepy in such an environment.

The short and fat middle-aged man was in a disguised way being disliked by the others. He was already quite dissatisfied with being arranged in the same group with Lorna and the girl. The sudden change at this moment made him even more irritable.

"I'm scared and I want to go home..."

The girl's sobbing voice sounded creepy at this time. The middle-aged man was obviously frightened and cursed at her:

"Who the hell doesn't want to go home? We haven't figured out what's going on here, and we don't know what dangers there are. You're making such a fuss. Are you thinking you're not dying fast enough?"

Speaking of the word "death" in a place like this, not only the girl, but even the middle-aged man himself shuddered.

Lorna didn't bother to listen to the conversation between the two, her attention was already attracted by the cards in her mind.

Each of these parallel cards is a picture of a black background with red stripes. Three cards are arranged in a row, with a total of three rows. Just looking at the pattern, you can feel a sense of oppression.

Lorna Xiaoqiang suppressed the feeling of shuddering as she "observed" the patterns on the cards. After pondering for a while, she still couldn't figure out what these patterns represented, but she noticed that there were a total of nine cards.

There are nine people in total who have entered the 'God's Trial Space', a number that corresponds to the number of cards. I don't know if there is any connection between them.

The ominous feeling became stronger. The middle-aged man was still cursing in his ears. He didn't know what the number of these cards meant. Lorna didn't know how to leave this trial space. A lot of cold sweat welled up in his palms, which were slippery and wet. The blood stains remaining in his palms seemed a little sticky under the flushing of sweat.

This easily brought back the memory of being killed to Lorna's mind, especially in such an environment, which made her even more uneasy.

She subconsciously reached out to touch the neck that had been stabbed before, and the next moment a reminder sounded in her mind:

"Object selected."

Lorna was startled by this sudden change. When she came to her senses, she was already holding something in her hand. She instinctively clenched it and felt a tingling pain in the palm of her hand.

She licked her dry lips and looked down. It was a dagger about the length of a palm, with a blade as thin as a silkworm's wing. In the faint light in the thick fog, she turned her palm slightly, and one side of the dagger reflected silver light.

The short and fat middle-aged man did not notice her abnormality and was still scolding the sobbing girl. Although Lorna did not understand where the dagger came from at this time, in this situation, having a dagger to defend herself was already a great thing for her.

Although she was not sure how much effect the dagger could have in such a mysterious space, she still quietly stuffed the dagger into her sleeves and hid the dagger by folding her sleeves.

Lorna had just finished all this when the thick fog around him began to dissipate at a speed visible to the n***d eye. The space began to brighten, and the figures of the middle-aged short and fat man and the girl were clearly visible.

"I am so unlucky to be with you two useless guys."

The man seemed to be venting his fear by cursing. The girl was angry but dared not speak. After the middle-aged man cursed for a while, he seemed to be tired and stopped:

"This damn place is very evil."

He shook his head and was about to speak again when the girl suddenly cried out "Ah" again.

"Do you want to die?"

The middle-aged man's tense emotions reached a critical point. He clenched his fist and pretended to hit the girl. The girl instinctively shrank her shoulders, but the middle-aged man did not punch her in the end. It was not because he finally regained his sanity at the critical moment, but the moment he clenched his fist and was about to hit the girl, Lorna saw a mouse connected to a wire appear out of thin air in his clenched fist!

"What the hell is going on?"

The black mouse cable was still swinging, and the short and fat man looked devastated, as if he had touched the most terrifying monster in the world. He threw the mouse in his palm away with a trembling hand and hugged his head with both hands.

"I…"

The girl stretched out her hand, holding a mobile phone wrapped in a pink rabbit shell, with a horrified expression:

"This is my phone, but, but I clearly put it in my pocket before."

She stared at Lorna with a pair of tear-soaked eyes, "I don't know how it appeared in my hands again."

Seeing the poor girl being frightened out of her wits, Lorna took a few deep breaths and managed to calm himself down:

"Did you take it in your hand when you came in?"

The girl looked as if she had seen a ghost, and wanted to imitate the middle-aged short and fat man and throw the phone in her hand away. When she heard Lorna's words, she hurriedly shook her head:

"No." Her teeth chattered together as she spoke, making a 'clack' sound. In the dim light after the thick fog dissipated, Lorna noticed that her cheek muscles were twitching abnormally, and she was obviously extremely frightened.

"When the doctor mentioned that my phone had lost signal, I took it out and looked at it. I'm pretty sure I put it in my pocket."

The girl added, "No, but before entering this space, I was playing with my phone..." Her words reminded Lorna of the dagger hidden in her sleeve, and the short and fat middle-aged man beside her seemed to remember something as well:

"Yes, yes, I was holding the mouse when I entered here."

What the two said proved that the things chosen by the people here might be the things that their hands or bodies had touched at the last moment of entering the space.

Lorna's pupils shrank, and she immediately covered the dagger on her left arm with her right hand. If her guess was true, then the dagger she had in her hand now was most likely the weapon that the strange man had used to kill her before!

After figuring out the source of these things, the middle-aged man seemed to feel a little relieved:

"You got the phone, I got the mouse, hey, what did you get?"

He turned to look at Lorna , who drooped his eyelids and shook his head:

"No."

She concealed the existence of the dagger.
