Chapter 176 Linked Together (16) - The Wind Keeps Blowing

Si Zhong thought she was sensible, but if she started yelling and screaming, he would have to teach her a lesson later.

They finally made it across, and as soon as Si Zhong put his feet down and put Ning Shu down, she couldn't help but vomit.

Emma, ​​this ride is much more exciting than the giant pendulum ride at Dark Night Amusement Park, she couldn't resist.

Si Zhong hadn't expected Ning Shulai to do this, and his nasal cavity was immediately filled with that sour, foul smell, causing his mood to plummet.

He was certain that all the embarrassing things that had happened to him in his life were because of this little potato in front of him.

Coincidentally, Ning Shu also believed that all the shameful things in her life were because of the strange man in front of her.

After vomiting, she instantly felt alive again.

Feeling like he was about to "die," Si Zhong walked forward quickly, as if he wanted nothing more than to shake off Ning Shu.

Unfortunately, as soon as the chain was straightened, Ning Shu was pulled over and followed him around happily.

Before me was an abandoned building, almost entirely resembling urban ruins.

There was a wall in front of them, and they had to climb up the stacked boxes into the abandoned building to find an exit.

From this point on, Si Zhong didn't pay much attention to Ning Shu. Ning Shu was still feeling unwell from vomiting earlier and didn't want Si Zhong's help, worried that it would happen again.

The two climbed up the abandoned building one after the other, only to find it was a maze-like structure.

After walking for a while, Si Zhong stopped and took out the dice again, rolling them at each fork in the road.

Ning Shu noticed that the numbers facing up on the dice were all different, and she didn't know how the prop was used. Anyway, Si Zhong glanced at it, picked it up, and walked down one of the paths.

She didn't say anything, but obediently followed behind. Today was the last day of the dungeon, and she was worried that she wouldn't be able to clear it.

At this moment, all she could think about was Cheng Chuan and Wu Yi; she wondered how they were doing.

She felt that the traps she had overcome were quite difficult, and she might not have been able to get through them without Si Zhong. She began to worry about Cheng Chuan and the others.

What if they can't get through? Where will she find someone?

As she was thinking this, she realized that she had actually left the maze. She had no recollection of it at all; she had just followed along, as everything inside looked the same.

But then another rotating cube appeared in front of me, though this one was only rotating in different directions and showed no signs of moving.

Upon seeing this thing, not only did Si Zhong's face darken, but Ning Shu's stomach also felt even worse.

Si Zhong seemed to have thought of something; he jumped onto the cube and then quickly jumped back.

Ning Shu looked at him, puzzled, then at the cube, which was still rotating in place, unchanged.

Suddenly it dawned on him that Si Zhong was probably worried that the cube would only start moving after they jumped on it, so he tried it out.

She looked up at the place they were going to reach through the cube and found it was a moving platform.

The platform moves in a circle around a certain center, with the diameter connecting the cube and another ground.

If Ning Shu and the others want to get to another area, they have to jump onto the cube first, and then jump onto the platform to get there.

Si Zhong looked at Ning Shu. Although he was disgusted, this time he didn't carry her on his shoulders, but just held her in his hands.

Ning Shu felt much more comfortable the moment she was lifted up, much more comfortable than being carried on someone's shoulder.

The two made it across without incident, and then Ning Shu felt like dying. What was all this? The space underfoot was so small, with about eight 600*600 bricks.

I feel like if the wind were stronger, I could be blown away.

She stood close to Si Zhong in fear. Si Zhong felt disgusted by her constant clinging to him; if the space hadn't been so small, he would have pushed her off.

There's nothing around to use for jumping. Is this the end of the game?

Ning Shu felt that it probably wasn't true; it didn't look like she had reached the top, and she hadn't received any system notifications.

Suddenly, she saw several bricks appearing in mid-air very close to where they were standing. The bricks were the same size as the ones under her feet.

The resulting shape is very irregular, resembling an "L" in Tetris. Originally, there was a path, but it just hadn't appeared yet.

Ning Shu was secretly delighted.

However, the shape and distance are a bit unfriendly; if they jump too hard, they might slip off the paving stones and fall down.

Si Zhong wasn't worried about this at all. As long as there was a road, he could walk. He was worried that Ning Shu would implicate him, so he carried Ning Shu with him.

They jumped over many of these randomly combined bricks and came to a straight road, but above this road were many spheres that were swinging rhythmically.

Each of the large spheres in front of them was connected by a line, and all the lines converged on a floating square log above Ning Shu and the others.

It looks just like a bouncy collision ball, except the former swings from side to side, while the latter swings from front to back.

These large spheres are arranged side by side in a straight line, with the only gap being the space left when two spheres swing in opposite directions.

Looking at these spheres that were bigger than people, Ning Shu thought to himself that if they were a little slower, they would have been knocked away by the spheres.

The thought of being severely injured and then having to freefall from thousands of miles away made her want to die.

Whether Si Zhong was tired or not, this time he didn't carry her or lift her up, but just grabbed Ning Shu's wrist: "Stay close."

He doesn't even need to tell her; she definitely will.

Ning Shu inwardly grumbled, feeling a slight pain in her wrist, and mentally complained about Si Zhong's lack of gentleness.

She had no idea how much Si Zhong disliked the fact that he was holding her hand, feeling like he was leading a slovenly pig.

If he wasn't worried about falling, he wouldn't have wanted to hold her hand. After holding her hand, he worried that she wasn't holding on tight enough, so he pulled a little too hard.

As the first ball passed by, the two quickly stood where it had passed, anxiously waiting for the second ball to swing past, while also worrying that the first ball would swing back.

The second ball passed by, and the first ball was about to collide with it. Si Zhong pulled Ning Shu to the position of the second ball and waited for the third ball to pass.

They passed more than a dozen balls and finally arrived safely at the end of the avenue, where they saw a simple elevator.

Ning Shu considered it "simple" mainly because it was open on all four sides, with no walls, just four pillars and a hollowed-out base.

The openwork pattern on the bottom looks like a comb. When you stand on it, you can feel the wind blowing from the bottom up, as well as from all four sides.

Her hair was down, so the hairstyle started by standing upright, then swayed horizontally from side to side, and finally swayed haphazardly. She felt as if her own hair had slapped her face countless times.

Si Zhong looked down at the messy hair of Little Potato and clicked his tongue inwardly, thinking that long hair was just a hassle for girls.

Actually, Ning Shu's hair wasn't very long, only reaching her shoulders, but the strong wind kept blowing it, which is why it turned into this mess.

Si Zhong watched Ning Shu and couldn't help but press her hair down with her hands as much as possible. She looked flustered and couldn't help but slightly raise the corners of her mouth.

After the elevator ascended for a long time, they arrived at a new building. They went inside and walked around for a while, and what appeared before them were several super-large fans floating in the air.

Yes, they are fans. They lie flat and blow air upwards, with colorful ribbons tied to the covers fluttering vertically, clearly indicating strong airflow.

Looking at this scene, Ning Shu felt like she was having a run of bad luck with the wind today. She had already been blown around in the elevator and her head was spinning, and now this happened again.

She counted them; there were four large fans, irregularly distributed in mid-air, with two enormous tires at the ends of the fans, which were still rolling in place.

This dungeon is getting more and more fantastical.

"Let's go." Si Zhong left those words behind and jumped off the cliff.

Ning Shu was scared half to death. After she asked if she could have a few seconds to react, she was truly impressed.

At this moment, Ning Shu was pulled by Si Zhong and dropped into the air above the giant fan. The two of them were blown into the air, and Ning Shu felt that her face was distorted by the wind.

This fan doesn't look very harmful, but if you're inside it, you'll be blown out of shape.

Ning Shu realized she had been careless in jumping in; she was now completely immobilized, trapped here by the wind.

Si Zhong had obviously noticed the problem as well. He was also finding it difficult to withstand the wind force. He took out a climbing grappling hook from his spatial storage and a crossbow.

A crossbow is a tool; the bolts it fires will only hit the target it is aiming at, and their path will not be changed by external forces.

Si Zhong removed the crossbow bolts from the bow and arrow, attached a grappling hook, aimed at a rolling tire behind him, and fired the hook. The hook pierced the tire and embedded itself firmly inside.

As the tire rolled, it moved forward along with the rope. Si Zhong quickly grabbed the rope with one hand, put the crossbow back into his spatial storage, and waited for the tire to take them away from the area.

Their current position and the tires are separated by two large fans, which is an unavoidable issue due to the straight-line distance.
