Chapter 38
Xu Zhen thought she didn't understand what Pei Zhao said, so she subconsciously asked again: "What did you say?"
The first time you say it, it won’t be that difficult to repeat it the second time.
Pei Zhao said: "I want you to be my puppet."
Xu Zhen looked confused, and the fake loli Lan Ji kindly explained: "We are not from this world. To leave this world, we must get a puppet. Maybe you don't know that people can become puppets."
Can people become puppets? In all his life, Xu Zhen never knew that people could turn into puppets!
She was confused, but she subconsciously followed their thoughts and asked, "If I become a puppet, does that mean I'm dead?"
Pei Zhao frowned: "It will be a short period of time." He didn't want to deceive Xu Zhen, so he just said: "I just want to ask your willingness. If you don't want to, we will send you out and think of other ways."
Pei Zhao also felt that his question was abrupt. He was overwhelmed by the thought of leaving. How was asking someone directly like this any different from asking them to die?
Pei Zhao stood up and wanted to discuss with Zhou Yuli whether they could use vines to send Xu Zhen out first, but was suddenly stopped by Xu Zhen.
"I do."
Pei Zhao frowned and turned back, "Are you willing?"
Xu Zhen gritted her teeth, "But I have one condition."
Pei Zhao took a deep breath: "Okay, you go ahead."
·
The sky gradually brightened, but there was no sign of the amusement park opening. The ground was still pitch black. Looking up, there was only a Ferris wheel blocking out the sun.
Many people in black robes were lying on the surface of the Ferris wheel like aphids. From a distance, they looked so densely packed and disgusting.
And on the way to the highest point of the Ferris wheel, even at the position of a steel bar, there were many people in black robes intertwining with each other.
Pei Zhao removed a vine from the glass cover and looked outside with a frown.
"Just burn it down."
Behind him, Bai Zhou had a grim look on his face, and the sparks in his hand were getting brighter and brighter.
"I think so too. It looks disgusting." Lan Ji huddled in the corner, looking very anxious.
They sat in this glass chamber all night, and their breathing became difficult, so their mood was naturally not good.
Only Zhou Yuli, who had been silent the whole time, looked okay, but the vines in his hands had already wrapped around his arms, and he was just waiting for Pei Zhao's order, and those vines would fly out in an instant.
But Pei Zhao stopped them, "No, we have to find a way to catch one."
Just now, Xu Zhen promised him that she would become a puppet as long as they helped find her sister and help her leave here.
Xu Zhen told them that her sister's situation was special. Although she was an adult, her intelligence was only that of a child.
After hearing this, Pei Zhao was shocked. It turned out to be such a special situation.
In the few classes he participated in, he knew that this condition could generally be divided into two types, some were congenital and some were childhood illnesses. Pei Zhao asked Xu Zhen what kind of condition her sister had. Xu Zhen only said that her sister had been like that since she could remember, and she didn't know when she got the disease.
Of course, this was just Pei Zhao's unnecessary question. Their main task at the moment was to find Xu Zhen's sister.
"Are you sure your sister is in the park? Could she have already gone out?" Before taking action, Bai Zhou confirmed with Xu Zhen again.
"No." Xu Zhen shook her head and said, "My sister's bracelet is still with me."
She shook her wrist, and sure enough, there were two paper bracelets placed one above the other.
Pei Zhao narrowed his eyes and paid special attention. On the bracelet was written: Funeral Amusement Park. He remembered that when they came, the amusement park was not called this name.
Pei Zhao didn't think too much about it. The glass warehouse under his feet had begun to shake as the cloaked men climbed up.
"Use fire to burn them directly. Zhou Yuli, catch one and bring him back." Pei Zhao thought for a while and said to the others.
"Catch a useful one, don't bring back one that can't tell anything." Bai Zhou frowned. He saw a few that were closer, with half of their faces exposed under hoods, their mouths slightly open, looking stupid and silly.
Bai Zhou pulled off a vine with disdain, and drew a ball of fire out of the skylight. The flames caught the cloak on fire, but strangely, the men were completely unaware.
Pei Zhao frowned: "What's going on, aren't they human?"
Zhou Yuli was silent for a long time, and suddenly a vine stretched out from the skylight. The vines quickly grew thicker and swelled the moment they came into contact with the air, like the roots of a towering tree, twisting around the top of the glass warehouse. Vines extending from the treetops reached out and struck down the cloaked men like whips.
But throughout, those cloaked men who were shot down immediately climbed back up again.
It looks like...
"It really looks like a robot." Pei Zhao exclaimed.
"Maybe they are machines. Their movements are... too strange."
"If you are sure it is a robot, just go for it." Compared with Pei Zhao's caution, Pei Zhao only felt his scalp tingling at this time, and wanted to eliminate these disgusting cloaked men immediately. He turned around and checked with Pei Zhao. Seeing that Pei Zhao had no intention of objecting, he said to Lan Ji beside him, "Together?"
Lan Ji nodded: "Yeah."
The two men kicked the door open, and two streams of light, one red and one blue, flew out in an instant. From top to bottom, two shock waves, one cold and one hot, collided with each other. The next moment, a loud "bang" was heard, and the Ferris wheel's mechanical arm made a sound of being unable to bear the weight. A huge cloud of dust exploded, and after it dissipated, only some black powder was left, which dissipated with the wind.
Pei Zhao's roar came from the glass chamber: "Didn't I tell you to keep one?"
Zhou Yuli suddenly said, "I'll keep it."
Pei Zhao turned his head: "What?"
Zhou Yuli's Adam's apple moved, and he repeated it again: "I kept it when you were arranging the task."
Pei Zhao looked at the vine extending from the door in his palm, spreading along the Ferris wheel to the ground, and slowly shrinking upwards, as if tying up something. He showed a happy expression: "Zhou Yuli, I knew you were reliable!"
Zhou Yuli showed a slight smile on his face, then he concentrated his attention and pulled the thing below up with force.
He was also a man in a cloak, but what made him different was that he had an exquisite badge on his chest. There was a huge bloody hole on his chest, from which blood was oozing out. The edges were black, and a lot of black foam was floating out of his body in the air.
Pei Zhao subconsciously covered his mouth and nose and asked, "Are you still conscious?"
Although the man was injured and his brows were slightly furrowed, his whole expression had an inexplicable sense of calmness, as if the one who was injured was not him, but someone else.
Hearing Pei Zhao's words, he suddenly smiled, revealing two sharp canine teeth.
"Are lawbreakers so rude? They are really not afraid of death." As he said this, he actually supported himself and stood up on the ground.
Even though he had seen many strange situations, the man in front of him made Pei Zhao's scalp tingle. There was a hole in his chest! According to his mind, this person was like a donut spirit, with his entire body in the shape of a ring.
Although shocked, Pei Zhao reacted quickly and immediately erected a mirror to protect Xu Zhen inside.
The man was stunned for a moment when he saw the lens, revealing a bit of surprise: "He is a man with special abilities. When did such a capable person appear in our garden?"
As he said this, he raised his hand and passed through the bloody hole in his body.
Pei Zhao felt sick at first, but then he saw that after his hand passed through the blood hole, his originally ordinary fingers became sharp and slender, and those black foams, some gust of wind sent them out of the skylight and landed on the Ferris wheel, and as soon as they landed they turned into the cloaked man from before.
"What kind of skill is this?" Pei Zhao only thought of the monkey in a mythological story who could pluck out his hair and turn into a younger brother. At the same time, he realized that the person in front of him was really different from those outside.
"Hand over the people who stayed in the park today, and we will leave." Pei Zhao's idea was very simple. He didn't want to fight, not to mention the chance of winning. But in a fight, someone would definitely get hurt. After all, he was born in a peaceful world and had a natural plan for war.
"You wish!" The man still sneered. As he took his hand out of his chest, the bloody hole slowly healed and soon returned to its original state.
Pei Zhao left a sentence: "Don't come out!" and flew out pulling Zhou Yuli.
The two of them stood suspended in the air with the help of Pei Zhao's mirror whip.
The cloaked men pounced on them like dumplings. Pei Zhao looked back worriedly. Fortunately, the person who had been in the warehouse with them did not make things difficult for Xu Zhen, but chose to chase them out.
"He is capable, don't confront him head-on," Zhou Yuli said to him.
Pei Zhao nodded, "Don't worry, do you have any way to find someone here?"
Zhou Yuli looked around. There were some green trees in the amusement park. Perhaps he could use their power to spread his roots and search the entire amusement park.
Zhou Yuli nodded: "I'll try."
Pei Zhao used his backhand to erect many tiny lenses around his body, which quickly rotated around Zhou Yuli.
Zhou Yuli looked at Pei Zhao's figure flying towards the man, his long whip shining in the skylight. His eyes darkened and he quickly calmed himself.
In an instant, about a dozen vines penetrated from top to bottom, deeply rooted into the ground of the playground, and extended in all directions at an extremely fast speed.
Zhou Yuli slowly closed his eyes, and just as he imagined, as the roots spread, a complete map of the amusement park gradually appeared in his mind.
Many things that cannot be seen from the outside are clearly laid out before your eyes.
But most of them were dead and lifeless. It was as if these places had been looted. There was not a trace of life at all.
But soon, there was something special that caught his attention.
In the map in his mind, that place was bright red, like the heart model he had seen in biology class, and it was still beating faintly, making powerful drum beats.
Zhou Yuli wondered, could it be that place was where there were still living people? Will Seo Jin's sister be there?
Zhou Yuli touched it with his tentacles.
