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

As Sophia stared at the dimly lit corridor before her, a wave of intense fear washed over her. Ever since she had gained the power of the Blood Moon, she had never experienced such a profound sense of dread. For a moment, she was at a loss for what action to take.

One by one, werewolves driven by the Blood Moon power had entered the dark corridor, yet none of them provided Sophia with any useful information. Soon after they stepped into the gloomy passage, they lost contact with her. Continue your journey on empire

"Why are you still standing outside? Do you really think you can eliminate me from there?" Jony's voice echoed from within the dark corridor.

Sophia glanced expressionlessly at the shadowy passage and then took a step back. She had no intention of entering the dark corridor. Instead, she decided to head towards the city center of Starling City. She was determined to use the lives of everyone in Starling City to unleash a powerful spell.

With the help of the Blood Moon's power and enough human blood, Sophia was confident that she could cast a spell capable of destroying the entire city.

Not long after Sophia left, Jony emerged from the dark corridor. He looked toward the direction of Starling City's city center, a faint smile creeping onto his lips.

"Everything is going according to plan! Both you and Irving are playing right into my hands," Jony murmured to himself, clearly pleased with the current situation.

He knew that Sophia was about to launch an attack on the city center of Starling City, but he had no intention of informing anyone else about it. After all, within that city center were the other families that Jony had long wanted to eliminate.

Turning to the guards of the Green family surrounding him, Jony casually remarked, "You don't need to stay here any longer. You can move to a safer location now."

With that, he quickly disappeared into the shadows.

At the same time, deep within the Angel Guild's Starling City branch, a member of the guild was using a prophetic artifact to foresee an impending disaster. However, he was baffled by what he saw. The disaster foretold was linked to the moon.

"What does this even mean? How can the moon bring about such a great calamity? Should I report this to my superiors?" he pondered, uncertainty clouding his mind.

Just as he was hesitating, a blood-curdling scream suddenly pierced the air from outside. He hurriedly set down the prophetic artifact and rushed out.

After pushing through one security door after another, he finally reached the outer area of the Angel Guild's Starling City branch, only to be met with a scene of utter horror.

Members of the Angel Guild were gradually being transformed into werewolves. Each member let out anguished cries of pain. Witnessing this, he immediately decided to report everything that was happening to his superiors. However, he was too late; before he could send out the information, he felt his vision narrowing to a shade of pink. In the end, he too was slowly converted into a werewolf.

The Angel Guild's branch in Starling City had proven utterly ineffective, as all the weaker members were turned into werewolves. The same fate befell every corner of Starling City.

Sophia floated in the air, looking down upon it all. The pink moonlight illuminated every part of the city. Soon, a large number of werewolves would emerge into the real world. Sophia was determined to use these werewolves, along with the powerful spell she was about to unleash, to make her enemies in the real world pay a heavy price.

"Anyone who tries to stop me will lose their life! The power of the Blood Moon is undeniable!" Sophia murmured, her eyes glowing red as she gazed at the enormous moon in the sky.

While Sophia's actions were achieving great success, there were still some powerful individuals in Starling City. Among them were the heads of various families and members of the Night Blades. The family leaders couldn't save their own members, but they could escape from Starling City.

The first group of family leaders to escape sought refuge with the members of the Angel Guild. About half an hour later, Anna and Nick, stationed at the Angel Guild headquarters, were informed of all that had transpired.

Normally, this situation would have been handed over to Aron to handle. But Aron had already entered the Shelter Game world with Irving. Therefore, Anna and Nick had no choice but to face the crisis brought by Sophia themselves.

"We need to take action immediately. If all the ordinary people in Starling City become werewolves, they'll form an unstoppable werewolf army," Nick said, urgency evident in his voice.

Although Nick had a reputation for being unreliable, he understood that a gathering of werewolves was incredibly difficult to deal with. Anna agreed with his perspective but felt that their current strength was insufficient to defeat Sophia, who had already mastered the Blood Moon power.

"We can't defeat Sophia by ourselves, especially now that she possesses the Blood Moon's power. I think we should seek help from others. We should call Aron back directly," Anna suggested, still hoping to hand the situation over to Aron for resolution.

After hearing Anna's words, Nick bluntly asked her, "If Aron truly falls in battle, are we just going to disband the Angel Guild? Even without Aron's help, we need to play our part. If you don't plan on going to Starling City, I can go alone."

With that, Nick grabbed two powerful weapons and set off. Anna chose not to stop him, knowing that even if she tried, he might not listen.

Instead, Anna turned to the members of the Angel Guild around her and ordered, "None of you can act recklessly. Contact Aron as quickly as possible. I believe he will be able to return in time."

In addition to instructing the Angel Guild members to reach out to Aron, Anna was also trying to contact Irving and Aron herself. However, she was consistently unsuccessful. At that moment, Irving and the others were trapped in the marshes of the Desolate Canyon ruins. The marsh not only confused them but also blocked communication with anyone outside.

Irving was currently leading Aron and James as they searched for a way out of the marsh. They had been lost there for two hours.

At first glance, the marsh didn't seem very large, but after wandering for so long, they still hadn't found an exit.

"I think we must be trapped by some sort of force; we can't just wander aimlessly looking for a way out," James remarked, sensing that their situation was becoming dire. He believed that under normal circumstances, they should have found a way out by now. After all, the three of them possessed considerable strength.

Moreover, they were also equipped with some tools that could help with spatial navigation.

Both Aron and Irving didn't disagree. They also felt they were ensnared by some unseen force. However, neither of them could think of a way to break free.

"Let's take a break here for a moment! We need to conserve our strength. If we exhaust ourselves and encounter a powerful monster, we could end up getting killed," Irving suggested, noticing that his stamina was nearing depletion.

James and Aron naturally had no objections to this.

During the three's break, Irving kept feeling a faint voice swirling around him. Each time he tried to discern the source of the sound, it would suddenly vanish. Irving chose not to share this with Aron and James, not wanting to increase their anxiety.

However, as time passed, the elusive voice became clearer. During their rest, Irving felt he was on the verge of understanding what the voice was saying. Just then, he suddenly sensed a powerful chaotic energy.

At the same moment, two darts made entirely of chaotic energy shot rapidly toward Irving. Since Irving and his companions were on high alert, they detected the danger immediately. The three of them easily dodged the incoming darts.

When they looked toward the direction of the darts, they saw the Chaos Entity. In that instant, Irving realized that his disorientation was undoubtedly connected to this entity. Without hesitation, he took off in pursuit of the Chaos Entity.

James and Aron followed closely behind, but their speed couldn't match Irving's, and soon he disappeared from their sight. James and Aron felt an overwhelming pressure, sensing that they had fallen into a trap.

"What should we do now? Irving suddenly vanished, and we can only figure this out on our own," James said, his tone tinged with tension.

Although Aron wasn't as anxious as James, he also felt that the situation was dire. "Let's not panic! Irving might not have gone far. If we wait here, he should return soon. He may have noticed that we couldn't keep up with him."

Aron spoke with a lack of confidence. No sooner had he finished speaking than a swarm of monsters appeared around him and James. These monsters were generally much stronger than the ones they had encountered before.

In that moment, Aron and James realized they had indeed fallen into an enemy's trap. However, they still didn't know who had set it. After all, the Chaos Entity didn't seem particularly intelligent, so it likely wasn't responsible for the trap.

Regardless, Aron and James knew they had to quickly eliminate the monsters surrounding them.
