Chapter 90: The Colorful City 19 Death is imminent...

The bells in the bell tower of the Holy Light Castle have stopped ringing, and the time for morning prayers has passed, but the beloved Papa has still not appeared on the familiar white platform. The citizens of the colorful city gathered on the lawn, ranging from expectation to restlessness to whispering, and now to violent anger.

"Where's Papa?!"

"It's past morning prayer time and Papa hasn't shown up yet. This is a dereliction of duty!"

"If Papa doesn't show up, we're going to rush in!"

"Oh, my Lord God! If Papa doesn't show up, we will all die tonight!"

Even the usually quiet Monday to Saturday days were beginning to feel uneasy.

"Sister Yirou, where do you think my boss and Boss Bai have gone..." Su Ming couldn't help but quietly approached Shi Yirou and asked.

"I believe they are fine. When I passed the hall just now, their hourglasses were not full yet. They must be fine!" Although she said so, Shi Yirou was still unsure. After all, a whole night had passed and no one had seen them.

"That couple may be hiding somewhere now and don't want to be disturbed by everyone." Li Ke put his hands in his trouser pockets, leisurely enjoying the chaos downstairs.

Shi Yirou glanced at him and didn't say anything. This man was too scary. Among the entire row of hourglasses, only his hourglass had less than half of the sand in it. Even his hair was still black. Li Ke seemed to see Shi Yirou's caution, so he smoothed his hair and gave Shi Yirou a wicked smile: "I hate gray hair."

Shi Yirou: ...

Suddenly, a loud and melodious organ music came from the Holy Light Castle, instantly attracting everyone's attention. The melody of this organ music was very strange, sometimes holy and bright, sometimes terrifying and gloomy. All the citizens of the Colorful City were nailed to the spot by the music of either angels or devils. The hair made of thick black wool on the heads of the soothing dolls that were originally held in the palms of the citizens' hands began to grow along with the music, like black snakes raising their eager heads. Thin black snakes climbed up along the bodies of the citizens who could not move, and then dived into the heads of the citizens holding the dolls in front of the horrified gazes of the citizens!

The citizens of the colorful city standing on the lawn were like fresh and juicy plants that were being sucked of nutrients by the black snakes that were wrapped around them, and their bright colorful hair quickly faded and turned pale...

An Rao and Bai Chuan ran to the door of the hall and saw that the ugly giant lizard was playing on the gorgeous and complex organ keyboard area on the second floor. Until this moment, they finally knew the function of the magnificent organs on the wall of the hall. They are the devil's trumpets, ready to make the whole city possessed and become the devil's followers at will.

"I can't kill you, but you definitely won't be able to walk out of the Colorful City alive. There are many hungry citizens outside now," the monster said slowly amid the deafening music. "They have been drained of their emotions and are now starving to death. What do you think they will do with you, the fresh, juicy and emotional humans?"

"Ding!" The last note was struck out by the monster with a loud bang.

"Go, my people! Go and devour the emotions that were taken from you!"

The lady standing in the front row, with black snakes crawling all over her body and the doll in her hand, suddenly turned into dust and disappeared. Soon, the black snakes and dolls wrapped around everyone's body disappeared one after another, and the lawn was now densely populated with citizens of the Colorful City with white hair.

Obviously, they heard the charge horn issued by Papa. They opened their drooping eyes wide, and their originally black or brown pupils were covered with a layer of white film. They stared eagerly at the three apprentices standing on the platform.

The whole city was dead silent, the air seemed frozen, and there seemed to be a string stretched to the extreme between the upstairs and downstairs. The slightest movement would bring about a devastating disaster.

Su Ming and Shi Yirou looked at the crowd of urban residents downstairs who were like zombies and whose minds had gone crazy. Their backs were already covered with cold sweat. Even Li Ke, who always looked nonchalant, put away all his playful smiles and looked at the people downstairs with a serious face.

Three people are fighting against 300,000 NPCs in the Colorful City. Even a bite from one NPC is not enough for everyone to share.

Death is imminent.

Although An Rao and Bai Chuan were standing in the corridor of the castle hall, looking at the sea of ​​gray-haired people outside, they could still feel a kind of longing from their gray eyes. Those eager faces were telling everyone all the time that they were hungry, very, very hungry.

"What should I do?" An Rao had never been so confused.

What should I do? Since the monsters have already released the attack signal, why didn't these zombies rush in? It can't be that they are afraid to fight against the Holy Light Castle even in this situation! Baichuan always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't figure it out for a while.

Facts have proved that people will be stunned when they fall into huge, absolute and irresistible despair. Su Ming and the other two stood on the platform in a daze, staring blankly at the "person" on the third floor downstairs with their brains numb, forgetting to move.

"I, I'll go find Papa." It was Monday who reacted first. He backed away while speaking tremblingly, then turned around and ran downstairs.

His running was like a feather falling on a balance that had been kept balanced with great difficulty, or like a drop of blood falling into the sea filled with hungry sharks. The confused citizens downstairs woke up immediately, stared with gray eyes, and rushed towards the Holy Light Castle frantically.

"What should we do, Sister Yirou?" Su Ming asked loudly. There is no safe place in the fortress surrounded by zombies!

The platform on the third floor is very high, and there is a high wall outside the Holy Light Castle. After all, those zombie-like citizens were just ordinary humans before. Although it is a bit difficult to break through the Holy Light Castle in one fell swoop, they are numerous after all. Soon, the sharp metal thorns on the wall were hung with the bodies of citizens. Other citizens used the bodies of their compatriots as stepping stones, and the offensive became faster.

"Hurry up, don't be afraid, stay calm!" Shi Yirou took Su Ming's hand, turned around and ran towards the stairs. At this time, some fingers had already climbed onto the railing of the third-floor platform. A lot of bloodstains instantly appeared on the pure black railing of the Holy Light Castle. The first group of people came up stepping on the blood of their compatriots.

In six working days, all the priests had disappeared, and the puppet, which was not human to begin with, stared blankly at everything in front of it.

Suddenly, a soft and fluffy white figure and a neat black figure appeared together, and they quickly stuffed the things in their hands into the hands of the three people in front of them.

"Plug your ears and keep calm. They are similar to zombies, except that zombies eat people, while they eat emotions. As long as you don't show your emotions, you won't be eaten by them!" An Rao said anxiously, "Follow us!"

With earplugs in their ears, the horrifying howling sounds were blocked out. As long as they couldn't see them, the luxurious and exquisite Holy Light Castle was still in front of them. An Rao and Bai Chuan led everyone to run forward. Last night's exploration in the castle made them more familiar with the structure of the Holy Light Castle than the other three players. There was a low back door near the restaurant on the first floor of the Holy Light Castle, which was used to deliver food. From there, they could at least barely escape into the woods behind the Holy Light Castle.

Soon, the group of zombies with white hair were like a pure white river, submerging most of the pure black Holy Light Castle. Soon, the screams of the priests were heard in the castle. Priests are also human beings, with seven emotions and six desires, and they will feel panic and fear. These panic and fear that cannot be suppressed at all become the most powerful temptation for this group of hungry sharks.

The five people who were trying to get out paused for a moment, then got out even faster. Outside the back door of the Holy Light Castle was a lush grove that An Rao was familiar with. This had always seemed very strange to An Rao. It was not strange for a castle to have a grove, as most castle owners would open up a beautiful back garden for their own use. The strange thing was that the Holy Light Castle clearly had a back garden and the ability and financial resources to take care of it, but it still let it be left deserted, with dense trees growing wildly, like a small tropical rain forest.

Unless there is something hidden in this forest that the Holy Light Castle cannot and does not want to take care of, An Rao suddenly remembered the well they found in the first three copies.

The first well is in the center of the pirate ship, the second well is in the center of the villa, and the third well is the most important temple in the village. If the area outside the village wall is included, the temple is actually the center of the Happy Village. According to convention, the Colorful City must also have a well. Considering that the Holy Light Castle is in the center of the Colorful City, this well should be in the castle or in this dense forest.

Baichuan, who was walking in the front, suddenly made a gesture, indicating everyone to run into the woods. Then the neat black shadow was like a sharp sword, and without any hesitation, it directly chopped into the unknown dense green in front of them.

Baichuan took the lead and Anrao tacitly chose to be the last. It was just like when they first arrived at the Holy Light Castle to be examined by Papa, Anrao took the lead and Baichuan chose to be the last without thinking. The rustling sounds in the castle began to become smaller. After eating the six priests clean, the citizens who were still suffering from hunger lost their direction at this moment. They opened their gray eyes, trying to smell any emotion in the air to comfort themselves who were so thirsty that they almost wanted to eat themselves.

The forest is a very smart choice, not only can it make people invisible, but also facilitate quick response. Those citizens who have lost their ability to think for themselves are not unpredictable monsters, they are just zombies now, and once they enter the forest, they will definitely make a noise that can be discovered by the five-man team.

An Rao followed everyone's steps as they moved deeper into the woods, while carefully observing the movements around him. As his ears were blocked, the surroundings seemed almost eerie in silence. However, this forest revealed its eerie side after everyone broke through the outermost layer of ordinary jungle camouflage.

The further they walked, the more bizarre the trees became. Not only were their colors getting darker, but the strange vines they didn't recognize were getting more and more twisted. Even the ordinary trees seemed to have absorbed some kind of essence and were growing desperately, blocking out the sun and covering the sky. It was as if they were not walking in a forest, but in a bloody battlefield where plants were fighting desperately for the survival of the fittest. Vines strangled trees, fungi killed vines, big trees surrounded small trees, small trees swept away thin grass, and thin grass covered moss...

The rich plant juice dripped slowly down the leaves, using the dim skylight as cover, and fell silently onto the backs of tiny humans.

"Ah!" Su Ming, who was walking with his back bent and his nerves tense, was hit by an unexpected burning pain on his back and screamed subconsciously.

Those white-haired citizens who were randomly wandering around the Holy Light Castle seemed to have smelled a beast of blood. The moment the screams sounded, all of their eyes looked towards the woods.

Oh no!

Not only did the citizens flock to the scene, but the plants also seemed to have grown ears. The huge flowers silently opened their petals to reveal bottomless necks, and the vines quietly extended their slimy tentacles towards the source of the sound, and more juice began to drip.

A huge rustling sound like a siege began to be heard in the woods, sweeping towards An Rao and the others like a tide.

"Run forward!" An Rao roared.

There was no time to care about the pain of the dripping juice, and everyone ran away in panic. And in a place that no one, not even An Rao, noticed, the vines with sharp thorns like sharp teeth just touched An Rao's back and rolled back as if they were burned by fire and afraid of the pain. An Rao, who was running at the end, was still unharmed.

In the dim forest, under the white Lolita skirt, a gorgeous purple light shone at the lower back of An Rao, helping him to ward off all evil spirits.

Citizens continued to be eaten by plants, which gave the five people a little respite. An Rao finally remembered what story the reliefs and paintings on the Holy Light Castle and the Black Church were telling.

It was Papa who defeated these man-eating, monster-like plants that could cover the sky and the sun, and suppressed them all in the backyard of the Holy Light Castle. Only then did the Colorful City usher in a new life full of sunshine. That is why the citizens of the Colorful City are so grateful to Papa, naming him the Holy Father and obeying him alone!

And only when Papa, the god, has believers, can he successfully complete his plan of eating people's emotions and thrive in this city-state.

But did Papa plan all this alone? An Rao thought of the ugly, disgusting lizard covered with tumors, and felt that it didn't have such great ability.

Speaking of the lizard, An Rao suddenly realized a problem. The monster-like forest and the lost citizens, but where is Papa? The last five players have obviously been forced into a desperate situation. This is the best opportunity for it to annihilate the players in one fell swoop. Why doesn't it come?

Maybe... An Rao had a bold idea in his mind.

"There is a well ahead!" Shi Yirou shouted.

When An Rao heard this, he raised his head suddenly, and sure enough!
