The Shelter Game: Me, Starting with a Tenfold Drop Rate

Accompanied by the eerie music emitted by the world connector, Anna, Benjamin, and Vicky each experienced three different visions simultaneously. The three of them were continuously recalling everything related to Aron in their minds.

As time passed, the world connector finally locked onto Aron's location. Subsequently, the world connector transported Anna and the others directly to Aron's side.

Before Anna and the others could shake off the negative effects of the world connector, they heard Shadow Celestial's astonished voice. "Who are you? Why are you here?!"

Anna and her companions had been transported directly to the headquarters of the Night Blades. They found themselves in the deepest part of the headquarters, which served as Shadow Celestial's secret base.

Shadow Celestial did not recognize Anna and Vicky, so he did not react immediately. It was only when he saw Benjamin that he finally realized that the three individuals before him were his enemies.

Without hesitation, Shadow Celestial launched an attack on Anna and the others. Powerful chaotic energy formed shadowy figures that charged toward Anna and her companions with wild abandon. Shadow Celestial used his strongest attack right from the start. Even Irving would have to be extremely cautious when facing such an assault.

In Shadow Celestial's view, Benjamin and the others would surely be severely injured by his attack. Although he was unaware of how they had suddenly appeared before him, he was certain that Benjamin and his companions were in a poor state.

Benjamin and Vicky were struggling to cope with the negative effects of the world connector, and as a result, they could hardly see their surroundings. Anna's situation was somewhat better; however, she still had not reacted in time and didn't even manage to activate the spellbook she was holding.

The shadowy figures composed of chaotic energy surged forward, closing the distance to less than a meter from Anna and her companions in an instant. A smile crept across Shadow Celestial's face. He believed his attack was bound to succeed, thinking that the three unexpected enemies would be easily eliminated.

However, what happened next left Shadow Celestial utterly astonished. As the shadowy figures approached a strangely shaped gramophone, they suddenly twisted into an odd form. The chaotic energy possessed by these figures inexplicably vanished.

"What is going on? They clearly haven't reacted yet! How could my attack suddenly fail?" Shadow Celestial was filled with confusion.

However, he also knew that he could not afford to stop his attack. He had to defeat the enemy completely before they could react. Shadow Celestial quickly drew a long sword and slammed it heavily into the ground. The part of the sword that touched the ground erupted with black light, which shot toward Anna and her companions at high speed.

Despite the rapid flight of the black light, as it neared the world connector, it was ultimately twisted into a significantly weaker attack spell. Upon seeing this, Shadow Celestial confirmed that the oddly shaped gramophone in Anna's hands was his greatest threat. "That gramophone can somehow distort my attack spells in an unknown way. I must find a way to seize it!"

Shadow Celestial made a swift decision. He concealed himself in the shadows and quickly approached Anna's direction, moving stealthily through the darkness. As he got within a meter of Anna, he too was affected by the negative effects of the world connector. Suddenly, he began to see images from the past. "What is happening?! Why am I seeing people who are already dead?!"

Shadow Celestial was deeply shocked. Unable to comprehend the formidable power of the strange gramophone in Anna's hands, he opted for a more cautious approach. He chose to flee. "Once I am prepared for battle, I will come back and eliminate all of you!" With that, Shadow Celestial transformed into a shadow and vanished.

At the same moment, he also took Aron with him. Just as Shadow Celestial and Aron disappeared, Anna finally managed to shake off the negative effects of the world connector. She hurried to turn off the world connector and covered it with a red cloth. The negative effects of the world connector were completely blocked, and Vicky and Benjamin's vision returned to normal.

The three of them were aware that they had just endured an attack, but they could not ascertain who had struck them. "We must have just been attacked, right? Who was it that attacked us? And where exactly are we now?" Benjamin asked Anna with confusion while cautiously scanning their surroundings.

He felt the powerful forces of darkness and chaos. Normally, the dark power was associated with the Night Blades and Shadow Celestial, while the chaotic power was solely linked to Shadow Celestial. Therefore, Benjamin concluded that the attack they had just endured must have been initiated by Shadow Celestial. However, he could not be certain, which was why he asked Anna.

Anna shook her head. "I don't know who just attacked us. All I know is that this person is extremely powerful! And we are currently in the headquarters of the Night Blades!"

Anna's words left Benjamin and Vicky in shock. "If we're in the Night Blades' headquarters, doesn't that mean we've walked into a den of wolves?" Vicky said, her voice tinged with panic.

"Regardless, we need to take action quickly! Now that we're here, we shouldn't hesitate any longer! Aron should be nearby, rightHe felt the powerful forces of darkness and chaos.

"Regardless, we need to take action quickly! Now that we're here, we shouldn't hesitate any longer! Aron should be nearby, right?" Benjamin asked Anna directly. In his view, since they had already made a move, they should not be overly concerned about encountering danger. They had prepared for the worst outcomes even before activating the world connector.

Anna nodded firmly. "The world connector is absolutely reliable; Aron must be around us. However, it's very likely that Shadow Celestial just took him away."

As Anna spoke, she took a compass out of her pocket. She began to examine the surroundings with the compass in hand. The compass spun rapidly before finally pointing deep into the Night Blades headquarters.

"Aron is in the direction the compass is pointing! If we head that way, we will definitely find Aron!" Anna exclaimed.

Benjamin, Anna, and Vicky immediately moved quickly toward the direction indicated by the compass. While that direction was indeed where Aron was located, it was also where Shadow Celestial usually resided.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

At that moment, Shadow Celestial had locked Aron in a secret chamber. "There's no way I will let you succeed! Your ability to find this place has indeed exceeded my expectations! But I will make you realize that coming here is nothing but a death sentence!" Shadow Celestial said fiercely.

He used his own power to seal all the exits of the Night Blades headquarters. He was determined to see Anna and her companions perish there. As Anna and the others advanced, they heard numerous doors slamming shut. They all understood that escaping from this place would not be easy anymore.

The three of them were resolute in their determination to achieve victory in the upcoming battle. They indeed had a chance to win, as they were equipped with a plethora of powerful items. Some of these items were so potent that even the users found them difficult to handle.

As Anna and her companions reached the entrance to Shadow Celestial's lair, he stepped out from behind the door. He held a dagger in his hand, which emitted a silvery glow. In that light, Anna could tell that the dagger possessed formidable chaotic power.

"You are truly overestimating yourselves! How dare you storm into the headquarters of the Night Blades! I will show you just how powerful I am!" Shadow Celestial declared.

As soon as his words fell, the paintings on the walls around Anna and her companions began to tremble violently. The figures depicted in the paintings took on physical forms, appearing utterly insane. These beings launched an immediate attack on Anna and her friends.

In response, Anna pulled out a clock. After pressing a button on the clock, she hurled it towards Shadow Celestial. The clock was one of the time-slowing devices possessed by the Angel Guild. Any enemy facing such a time-slowing device was bound to be affected, even if just slightly. Anna hoped to use the clock to slow down Shadow Celestial, allowing herself and her companions the time they needed to deal with the other enemies.

At the same time Anna threw the clock, Shadow Celestial charged toward her with supernatural speed, gripping the dagger that glowed with white light.

Vicky took out a green staff, and the moment the staff was drawn, a powerful life force surrounded her. The figures emerging from the paintings next to Vicky were entirely obliterated by this life energy.

Benjamin, meanwhile, drew a sword that radiated an orange-yellow light. He swung the sword to attack the surrounding enemies. Those struck by the orange-yellow blade dissolved into puddles of water. Benjamin had no intention of merely fighting the relatively weak enemies around him; his goal was to carve a path through them directly toward Shadow Celestial.

Due to the influence of the clock, Shadow Celestial's speed was reduced to less than 1% of its previous level. Seizing this opportunity, Anna used another item, pulling a mirror from her pocket. When the mirror reflected Shadow Celestial, his soul felt a tugging sensation, as if the mirror wanted to draw his soul inside.

Shadow Celestial sensed the immense threat and hurled the glowing dagger at the mirror. Upon impact, the mirror cracked with numerous fissures. At the same time, the evil spirits that had been contained within the mirror surged forth through the cracks.

The sudden appearance of these numerous evil spirits disrupted the battlefield, leaving everyone with no choice but to respond to the unexpected onslaught of malevolent entities.
