Lin Sanjiu turned the pedals into a card and stored them into her body. Then, she gripped the pillar tightly with both of her hands. The pain from her fingertips to the muscles of her chest was getting more and more intense as she fought against the strong suction force. As the artist added a few strokes to the canvas, the suction force became stronger and stronger. In just five to six seconds, Lin Sanjiu felt her strength draining away.
If this continued, she would definitely be sucked into the painting.
Lin Sanjiu calmed her racing heart. For a moment, she couldn't think of a solution. She recalled all the Special Items and abilities she had, but none of them could help her. Just as she was getting more and more anxious, she looked behind her and saw the artist standing under another pillar.
The guests and the other artists kept their distance from the two of them. Even though they were surprised, they didn't react that way. It was as if they were just quarreling with each other. Lin Sanjiu wondered how this situation would be explained in the story. Lin Sanjiu squinted her eyes and took another look at the wind caused by the suction force. Then, she gritted her teeth, pulled out her wings, and released her hands.
In the blink of an eye, Lin Sanjiu and her skeletal wings flew backward like a withered leaf. In the blink of an eye, Lin Sanjiu's body had already touched the edge of the painting. The painter stared at her intently, and a hint of a smile finally appeared on his face.
However, in the next second, the smile froze on his face along with Lin Sanjiu's body.
Lin Sanjiu's skeletal wings brushed past the pillar by a hair's breadth. She managed to grab the pillar by a hair's breadth and engraved her wings deeply into the surface of the pillar. Even though her body was still floating in the air, Lin Sanjiu was able to stabilize herself with her wings. She heaved a sigh of relief, and her heart almost leaped out of her chest.
"It's my turn now, isn't it?" she said softly. Then, she kicked the easel.
She dodged the canvas. Just as the tip of her foot was about to touch the easel, she suddenly hooked it, and the entire easel fell forward. Lin Sanjiu quickly pulled her leg back before the canvas touched her leg. Her abdominal muscles curled up, and she bent forward. She stretched out her arm and slapped the easel.
Nothing happened.
Her [Planar World] was not activated at all, and nothing was turned into a card. Just as the painting was about to fall to the ground. The painter at the side quickly grabbed it. Then, the suction force came back again.
Lin Sanjiu was dumbfounded.
After the last upgrade of the [Planar World], the upper limit of the object it could convert was one and a half tons. Other than that, living creatures could not be converted into cards. However, this easel was not one of them. She couldn't figure out why her ability would fail.
When Lin Sanjiu saw that the artist was about to retreat with the things in his arms, she immediately became anxious. She tossed her doubts to the back of her mind, twisted her body, and threw a heavy kick at him. Now that she was tall and had long legs, the distance of her kick would definitely knock the artist to the ground. However, just as the tip of her foot was about to touch the top of his head, Lin Sanjiu's thigh muscles constricted. She was so nervous that she felt as if she was about to cramp. She pulled her leg back, brushing against his side.
She took a deep breath and narrowed her eyes. Then, she pulled her wings out from the pillar.
Lin Sanjiu's body shot forward like an arrow. A second before she was about to be sucked into the painting, Lin Sanjiu's hand struck the artist's chest with a smack.
The air moved, and both the artist and the painting disappeared. Lin Sanjiu fell to the ground with a thud. There was a card in her hand: [Unfinished Painting].
If it wasn't for the fact that she couldn't feel the man's body temperature in her hypersensory state, she probably wouldn't have realized that the artist was not a living person.
From the beginning to the end. The Special Item was not the painting, but the person who painted it.
No wonder Hei Zeji said that she was blind.
When he stood up from the ground again, the broadcast also sounded at the same time.
"Gabriel and Joseph's dispute attracted the attention of many guests. As one of Queen Margalo's lovers, As one of Queen Margalo's lovers, Joseph has always been willing to stand up for the queen … "
Following the announcement, Lin Sanjiu looked up and found Baron Joseph. It seemed that he was the one who brought the artists here. So, he was one of Queen Margalo's men.
Separated by layers of guests, Marguerite's face returned to being as cold and indifferent as if it had been sealed in ice. However, this did not diminish her beauty in the slightest. Lin Sanjiu looked at Margaret's blue, cold eyes for a few seconds. She made a decision.
"Time Travel" only stated that players had to survive until the end of the game, but it did not state that she couldn't kill.
Although she had dodged the attack just now, no one knew what the next attack would be, when it would come, or if she could dodge it again. Instead of waiting for others to attack her, it was better to strike first and gain the upper hand.
Lin Sanjiu called out the pedals. One minute before she left the pedals, she stood back on the track.
This movement seemed to be a signal for people to let down their guard. Queen Marguerite glanced at her and slowly turned her head. It was no wonder that she did so. There was a long distance between the track and the throne. As long as "Gabriel" stayed on the pedals, she wouldn't be able to get close to Queen Margaret.
Of course, Lin Sanjiu didn't intend to follow the rules.
When she was brought into a story setting, and the scene had not yet been completed and she could not leave for the time being, she could step on the board and move around freely in a small area. While Lin Sanjiu observed Margaret's every move, she inadvertently slid the pedals to the end of the track, the place closest to the throne.
Even though it was "closest", there was still a distance of a few hundred meters between them.
When Lin Sanjiu looked closer, Queen Margaret, who was as graceful as a swan, looked even more graceful and delicate. She had a slender body, and her blonde hair was tied into an intricate bun at the back of her head. When Lin Sanjiu stopped, she turned her head and said something to the servant beside her. As she moved, the jewels sparkled under the candlelight, making her look like a statue carved out of pure diamond.
Even though Queen Margaret was beautiful, Lin Sanjiu couldn't bring herself to sympathize with her.
As a matter of fact, the weaker Queen Margaret was, the better. As Lin Sanjiu was worried that Queen Margaret had more Special Items and so-called "secret skills", she decided to end her life by force.
Before Margaret could finish her words to the servant, Lin Sanjiu had already made her move.
Lin Sanjiu, who had been hiding in the crowd for some time, was prepared for this attack.
Her upper body was shrouded in the [Defense Forcefield]. Lin Sanjiu's skeletal wings were fully extended, revealing her ferocious nature. With a push of her feet, she pounced at Queen Margo at her fastest speed. Her body was so fast that it was like a shadow in the air.
If this was a reenactment of a story from France's history, the characters in the story shouldn't have the ability to fight, just in case. Lin Sanjiu opened her mouth when she was about to touch the hem of Queen Margaret's skirt.
"Have you heard of the No. 300 bus?" Before Lin Sanjiu could say a word, Margaret turned her head slightly. The next second, Lin Sanjiu didn't even know what happened. She was sent flying by a sudden force.
The moment she hit the ceiling, Lin Sanjiu saw a small whirlpool. The moment she hit the ceiling, she finally saw a small whirlpool in front of Queen Margaret.
Her hypersensory state did not allow her to catch a single trace. The air surrounding her was still the same as before. However, Queen Marguerite merely stretched out her fair hand, and the air current was caught in her hand like soft mud. She easily stirred up a whirlpool of rapid movement.

The whirlpool wasn't big, but all of Lin Sanjiu's force was diluted by the whirlpool. When the whirlpool turned back, Lin Sanjiu's own force and Queen Margaret's powerful force struck her in the chest.
Even with the [Defense Forcefield], Lin Sanjiu could still clearly hear the cracking sound of her ribs. In an instant, her organs felt like they were about to explode. Blood suddenly flowed back into her brain, and her face suddenly turned red.
Lin Sanjiu lost control of her body and fell heavily to the ground. She didn't expect that she couldn't even block a single attack from Queen Margaret.
When Margaret stood up from her seat and walked towards Lin Sanjiu, the best Lin Sanjiu could do was to prop herself up from the ground.
"Enough!"
An angry roar from King Henry stopped Queen Margaret in her tracks.
"What dispute do you have that you have to make it so ugly?" King Henry's tone was full of anger, but his accusation was obviously directed at his wife. He strode towards' Gabriel ', suppressed his anger, and said, "Come with me."
It was clearly in the story. The queen and Gabriel merely had a verbal argument.
Lin Sanjiu couldn't even stand up right now. When she heard the announcement that she had left the pedal for 27 seconds, she clutched her stomach and crawled back to the metal board.
As soon as he sat down, the metal plate immediately followed the tracks that were laid out. He followed behind King Henry.
The blood that dripped from the corner of his mouth passed through the hole in the metal plate and left a long trail behind him. Queen Margaret chased after him for a few steps, but for some reason, she stopped and walked back to the hall.
"It seems that we are safe now."
Lin Sanjiu felt her head spinning and her heart palpitating. She couldn't help heaving a sigh of relief.
"Thank goodness King Henry stood up for his lover … Margaret is too strong."
The man in front of Lin Sanjiu walked very fast. Lin Sanjiu could only see his back. He seemed very unhappy. The two of them walked in the dim side chamber for a few minutes, but they didn't say a word.
Away from the lights and the guests, the side chamber was strangely quiet. The sound of King Henry's clothes rubbing against each other was especially clear.
As Lin Sanjiu's blood flowed through her veins, she heard the conversation of two maids from the other corner of the side chamber.
"Yeah, I heard that on the day of the wedding, the queen and His Majesty didn't look at each other. They just looked straight ahead and completed the ceremony …"
"Yes, yes. I heard that King Charlie pressed her head down and forced her to agree to the wedding …"
Lin Sanjiu raised her eyes blankly.
"Huh?
Does that mean that Queen Margaret and King Henry have no feelings for each other? "
Lin Sanjiu couldn't help thinking about the baron named Joseph. Yes, he was one of Margaret's lovers …
At first, Lin Sanjiu thought that even if Margaret had a lover, she would still be jealous of Gabriel because of her husband. However, if what the two maids said was true, Margaret wouldn't care about Gabriel at all …
"Then why —"
"… That painter just now, he was actually kept away by you."
King Henry turned half of his face in the shadows. The corners of his mouth curled up into a feminine smile as he spoke softly. (To be continued.)
