362 Selected Emotion: Despair

"Stop!" Shen Nianzu hollered without thinking. At that moment, he only acted based on his instinct. "Stop fighting! Don't attack those creatures anymore!" 

His voice thundered across the space, causing the battlefield to come to a momentary halt.

"Alienation?" Ying read the words written on the sky out loud, her complexion paling. "Alienation of… the players? Does it mean we're going to turn into them— the more we attack and cause them despair?"

"Or…" Shen Nianzu pressed the tip of his tongue on his cheek as he thought of another possibility. "Our own despair. The more we feel this emotion, the more we will change."
