Chapter 89: The Colorful City 18 You are always so eloquent,...

The originally luxurious hall of the Holy Light Castle was now in a mess.

It was not until this moment that the players understood the purpose of their clothes. The boy player dressed as a boy scout who always liked to tease An Rao was being chased by a tattered and rotten velociraptor doll, which was almost only a skeleton. Su Ming, who was wearing a white robe and blue pants, was staring at the skeletonized Yubaba and the giant baby in front of him.

"Sister Yirou, so these puppets are all crazy, right?" Su Ming said in a trembling voice as he looked at the terrifying puppets slowly walking towards him.

"Don't be afraid! Don't be afraid no matter what happens!" Shi Yirou had no time to look back and could only yell to remind Su Ming. Shi Yirou, who was wearing a sexy suspender skirt and high heels, was now surrounded by zombies and had no time to take care of anything else.

Li Ke, who was dressed in a suit, looked at the little boy in front of him who was wearing glasses, a blue elementary school uniform and a red bow tie, and whose face was half human and half skull. He was speechless: "So, why should I be afraid of a little brat?"

Before he finished speaking, the half-human child puppet raised its hand and started shooting arrows at Li Ke with the watch on its wrist.

Li Ke:……!

Someone broke two of the beautiful crystal hourglasses, and the green, sparkling sand scattered all over the floor, as if the luxurious hall carpet had been covered with a new layer of fine emeralds.

Papa stood outside the gorgeous carved door of the hall and did not stop what was happening. He was not even angry when he saw the broken crystal hourglass. He even squinted his eyes and took a deep breath in ecstasy, as if the air in the entire castle was filled with refreshing floral fragrance.

"Dang!" A player was waving the axe in his hand desperately, looking at the dense army of insects approaching him in despair. The sharp axe posed no threat to insects and arthropods, and soon he was overwhelmed by countless spiders, centipedes, cockroaches, scorpions, ants and poisonous snakes. His tightly closed mouth finally opened with a scream after being stung in the eye by a poisonous scorpion, and the moment he opened his mouth, his entire oral cavity was filled with the fastest centipedes and cockroaches. In the dense mountain of insects, a dazzling white light appeared, and another crystal hourglass was filled with green sand.

The players who can persist until this point are not simple players. Not to mention whether they have the ability to break out of the game, but after seeing so many different kinds of deaths, at least their psychological endurance has been trained to be very strong. It's a pity that the Colorful City is a weird world that preys on human emotions. It knows what the players fear the most, and then breaks through them one by one.

unless--

Shi Yirou kicked with a flying kick, and the stiletto heel of her high-heeled shoe poked straight into a zombie's rotten eye socket with a "pop", and when it was pulled out, it brought out a disgusting stream of pus, blood and black juice.

“What I was most afraid of before was zombies, but after going through the Rubik’s Cube, I became desensitized!” Shi Yirou swept her leg, and several zombies’ heads fell to the ground.

"Interesting," Papa admired the scene with interest, "Where are my princess and knight? Where are my two preziosos hiding in such a big event?"

An Rao and Baichuan didn't know how long the ugly monster would be gone. The only thing they could do now was to destroy all the rainbow wigs.

The people of the Colorful City trust Papa so much. If during the grand full moon morning prayer tomorrow morning, they see that Papa not only has no rainbow hair, but is also a monster in human skin, I wonder what the scene will be like!

Even if the angry people whose faith has collapsed cannot kill Papa, they will at least create chaos. As long as there is chaos, they will have a chance to escape!

An Rao and Bai Chuan tore off all the rainbow wigs and destroyed other human skins they found in the cloakroom, then returned to the forest of players' corpses, apologizing while using An Rao's dagger to cut off and destroy all the white hair on the players' corpses.

When everything was done, the sky had begun to turn white, and the castle was still in chaos. All the puppets were besieging the remaining three players, namely Su Ming, Shi Yirou and Li Ke.

"It's time to go. Morning prayer is about to begin." Baichuan glanced in the direction of the large floor-to-ceiling window. Many citizens were already standing on the gray lawn under the dim sky. This was the most important and sacred prayer during the blood moon. Everyone wanted to grab the best position and get the best blessings to resist the nightmare that they had to face on the night of the full moon.

In their hands, every citizen holds a soothing and blessing doll distributed by the Vatican for the full moon night. They hold the doll devoutly, as if Papa is comforting them gently and making them feel at ease.

An Rao cut off the hair from the last corpse and neatly stuffed it into a large cloth bag that Bai Chuan found in the cloakroom: "Let's go."

The two froze in place as they walked out of the room. In the corridor, Papa, who was covered in human skin, was looking at them leisurely with his arms folded.

His hair was tied up sloppily, and although his clothes were neat, he left in a hurry and did not have time to use the ring to fix the human skin on his body. At this moment, Papa's human skin was loosely covered on his body, like a horrible pajamas, unwillingly tied by the coat.

Papa's distorted human features barely showed a cruel smile, and he said in a voice so gloomy that it was almost frozen: "Where is my presiozos going?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a dozen puppets strode forward and surrounded An Rao and Bai Chuan in an instant. An Rao and Bai Chuan did not say anything, but stood side by side at the same time, tightly covering the cloth bags hidden behind them.

"Let me see what goodies my two naughty apprentices have taken from my room," Papa said as he walked towards them. "Luckily for you, morning prayers are about to begin, and you can still live until after morning prayers."

As he spoke, he walked over with a pap step, his loose facial features slumping down little by little with each step, and the whole person looked like a wax figure whose facial features had been melted by fire. It was so scary that it was like a nightmare to look at it. An Rao took a deep breath and kept reminding himself that this was a horror game, everything was fake, don't be afraid, don't be afraid, don't be afraid...

The pocket hidden behind him was snatched away. Papa opened it and took a look inside. His drooping eyebrows immediately frowned, and his voice became sinister and sharp, like a ghost demanding his life: "You... ruined my hair?!"

Hair, he really cares about his hair!

Papa threw his pocket aside angrily and scratched at the two with his sharp nails: "You are very good at seeking death!"

"First, we didn't destroy the decorations in the castle. The corpse in the room is not a decoration. Second, we have been studying hard. Third, we didn't disobey you!" An Rao dodged nimbly while shouting breathlessly, "You can't break the rules and kill us directly!"

Baichuan kept interfering with Papa's steps, always trying to prevent Papa from hurting Anrao.

Hearing this, Papa suddenly stopped, and his half-broken features gave An Rao a mocking smile. When he spoke again, the voice of this monster changed completely, as if he was suddenly possessed by someone else. His voice became low, pleasant, and full of charm: "You are always so eloquent, lawyer An Rao."

An Rao was shocked, it’s over!

Sure enough, Bai Chuan, who had been standing in front of An Rao and protecting her tightly, had his back visibly stiffened. He looked back at An Rao in disbelief and asked in an unbelievable voice, "You are, An Rao?"

Looking at Baichuan's tightly furrowed brows, An Rao's scalp went numb. There was no point in denying it. Although monsters were bad, they would not lie because there was no need, just like humans had no need to lie to an ant. So he nodded reluctantly, trying hard to use his throat to squeeze out a humming "hmm" from his vocal cords.

Baichuan didn't say anything else, but turned around silently and continued to stand in front of the monster.

"Oh, you are quite affectionate. You make me wonder if I was wrong before. You are the prezioso who should be harvesting love."

An Rao's heart was beating like a drum. He felt panic for the first time in the amusement park. The white feathers that were swaying beside the ear of the man in front of him were so bright that they were dazzling. The more silent Bai Chuan was, the more panicked he became. He was worried about gains and losses and didn't know what to do. It was as if a ball of poison was condensed in his heart, constantly spreading in his body, then corroding it and burning his heart into holes.

At this moment, in the messy hall, heavy pink snow began to fall in the first hourglass.

"How does it feel to be betrayed?" Papa looked at Baichuan with interest. "Do you still pity him? He is a liar. He has only known how to deceive people since he was a child. He is only treating you well here because he thinks you can help him get through."

The monster's words became more and more harsh. Liar, scoundrel, cold-blooded, he had heard these words too many times since he was a child. Every word was like a sledgehammer, hitting An Rao's nerves hard. The monster began to attack himself.

"He lied to me, what does it have to do with you?" Bai Chuan calmed down. "Why, he started to act like a rogue because he couldn't kill us?"

An Rao looked up suddenly, and this time it was him who was looked at in disbelief. The figure in front of him was still tall, and he did not retreat at all in the face of the terrifying monster.

"Since you are willing to reveal Dr. Lin's real name, it seems that you don't want to harvest the special relationship between me and Dr. Lin."

"Indeed, I don't need it anymore. You've seen through my game, so you won't let me have my way." The hideous monster approached step by step, and said in a low and pleasant voice that was totally inconsistent with his image. "You destroyed my hair, and you want me to be unable to attend the morning prayer. You want to expose my true face in front of all the people of the Colorful City?"

"You are too naive." The monster tore off the human skin on his body that was already crumbling and unable to support itself, revealing his original dark and ugly true body that looked like a giant lizard.

The morning bell had begun to ring, and the only three remaining players stood on the third-floor platform on time in a miserable state. Monday to Saturday, like six rainbows, stood in a row on the third-floor platform, watching each other intently, not caring about the only three remaining apprentices who seemed to have lost half their lives. It was obvious that they were accustomed to the scene before them.

The lawn was already packed with people, so densely packed that not even a trace of green grass could be seen.

The bell rang melodiously, but Su Ming and Shi Yirou began to feel uneasy. Where were Dr. Lin and Bai Chuan? !

The tip of the black monitor lizard's forked tongue was dripping with sticky, smelly saliva, and its bumpy skin was covered with warts. It was so ugly that it was completely different from its previous elegant gentleman image. It slowly approached the two tiny humans in front of it until it forced them into a corner with no escape.

An Rao pulled out the jeweled dagger from his beautiful white lace stockings, and took advantage of Baichuan's momentary inattention to jump in front of Baichuan.

"I'm sorry, I've been lying to you before," An Rao stared at the ugly monster in front of the two of them with a dagger in his hand, "but I really don't know you, and I was afraid that you would be disappointed. I'm sorry."

"What's the point of saying this now?" Baichuan and Anrao stood back to back. "We'll settle the score after we kill it."

“Hahahaha,” the monster laughed as if it had heard some big joke, “It’s really funny to listen to two pieces of food discussing how to deal with their master.”

"Who are you?" An Rao asked sternly.

"Oh, who am I..." The monitor lizard paused, "That's a good question, but unfortunately I don't want to answer you."

"An Rao, do you know how your name came from?" the monster suddenly asked.

An Rao's blood was about to freeze. His name? He was an orphan without a father or a mother. How could he know where his name came from?

"You were thrown at the door of the orphanage when you were born. The blanket that wrapped you only had your name and birthday on it." The monitor lizard observed An Rao with interest. "Have you ever wondered what your parents look like?"

"A long night of peace and many benefits. Aren't you curious why I gave you such great wishes and expectations in my name, but in the end I still threw you away?"

"You?" An Rao's expression was so cold that it was about to freeze. "Who are you?!"

"Sorry, I told you I'm not interested in telling you." The giant lizard suddenly turned around and climbed up the beautiful walls of the castle, quickly crawling towards the hall of the Holy Light Castle.

"Don't ever think about leaving here!"

"Bang." The dagger fell to the ground, making a crisp sound of metal and stone.

Long night of peace, many benefits. He thought about the origin of his name a thousand times, thinking that his father's surname was An, and he abandoned his parents in the hope that he could forgive them, so he was called Anrao, but now he was told that his name actually came from the Buddhist scriptures?

During the long night, you will be fearless, your body and mind will be at peace, and you will gain infinite benefits.

If you love me so much, why do you want to abandon me?

An Rao slowly turned around and smiled sadly at Bai Chuan: "It seems that not only do I not know you, I also don't know myself."
