Chapter 178 – The Game of Misfortune

　　A dark, gloomy atmosphere filled up the entire area. There was complete silence, with nothing greeting the party but empty s.p.a.ce. Stretching before everyone’s eyes was only a hazy gray sky.

　　“This is the Door of Misfortune?” After being swallowed in without warning, the group was greeted by this eerie place.

　　“Didn’t it say the Door of Misfortune led to the Paradise of Misfortune? Could this be it?”

　　The group was composed of experts. Despite this being the first time they cooperated, the members immediately spread out in a defensive formation the instant they entered this strange place.

　　“Everyone, check the map,” Purple Bell suddenly called out.

　　Everyone quickly opened their map system. Upon inspection, it showed only a pitch black patch, but there was a region where a lot of red spots were gathered. After counting, there were precisely 20.

　　“Could they be the 20 players who entered before us?” Han Shen remarked.

　　“That must be,” Fatty nodded. “Everyone, some of you may or may not be acquainted, so let’s get to know one another a little and save us any possible trouble with our cooperation to come.”

　　While these players were all friends of Fatty’s, not everyone was familiar with each other. Even though they were all experts, any single error in coordination could lead to unwanted consequences in the eerie environment of this place.

　　While the party got to know one another, Fatty rode Wheat to scout the vicinity. The area was terrifyingly vast and also empty. After running in one direction for over ten minutes, Fatty still couldn’t find any unique or noteworthy object.

　　There were no monsters, no trees, and no birds. It was thoroughly empty, except for white bones scattered everywhere on the ground.

　　“What kind of sh*tty place is this?” TheFugitive exclaimed.

　　“This is the Door of Misfortune,” a voice rang out. Then, a skull flipped a few times and landed before the group.

　　“Who!?” The sudden movement made the girls jump in fright. Qian Xiaoqian raised her hand, and a lightning bolt struck down right beside the skeleton.

　　“Young people, there is no need to make a fuss over nothing,” the skull quivered.

　　Appraisal. Fatty habitually tossed the skill on this skull.

　　Envoy of Misfortune – Kodeland

　　“I am the Envoy of Misfortune,” as soon as the skull finished this sentence, smoke rose up from its neck. The vicinity suddenly echoed with creaking noises. Countless white bones grew restless and flocked over to the skull.

　　“Young man, please make way,” the skull said to Fatty. The latter hastily urged Wheat to retreat several steps. Then, he saw a leg bone race past him toward the head.

　　Creak, creak… After a successive string of noises, a new, stark white skeleton took form aside from the skull. Then, the skeleton bent down, spreading its ten fingers wide to gently pick up the skull and placed it on its neck.

　　Kah. After being placed, the skull tried moving a little, emitting small grinding noises, as if finally fitting in the right place.

　　“Oh, let me introduce myself. I am the Envoy of Misfortune, Kodeland, and I welcome you to partake in the Game of Misfortune,” the skeleton made a gesture toward the players. Two flames slowly arose in its eye sockets.
