Escape from Paradise (VI)
Under the dim moonlight, the blood-soaked woman cut off the giant python's head with a sword and then stabbed it in the vital part.
The python's thick body shook violently, blowing away street lamps, smashing store billboards, and causing cardboard to flutter all over the sky, as if it were falling all over again.
Inside the store, there was a petite woman with her hands on her knees, screaming and looking at the man with the sword.
The hot blood flowed from the ends of my hair and rubbed against the wound on my cheek, causing a sticky and painful sensation.
Xu Wei raised his eyes and looked at the woman, causing her to scream even louder.
It seems that I look no different from a ghost.
The giant python was already dying. She stabbed it with one last blow, put away her sword, and was about to open her mouth.
The woman's eyes lit up, as if she had seen a savior. She desperately pushed open the door and ran in the opposite direction.
Xu Wei turned around, and blood began to drip from the sword, gathering into a small pool of blood on the spot.
She and Lu Fanye looked at each other.
The woman grabbed the corner of his clothes, hid behind him, and trembled slightly: "Don't go over there, let's run..."
Xu Wei was stunned for a moment, then he took a few steps back, fearing that he would think he was a murderous demon.
Lu Fanye broke free from the woman's hand and walked quickly forward.
"Don't go! She's going to kill you!" the woman shouted behind him.
Xu Wei quickly took a few steps back, and seeing him running towards him, he turned around and tried to run away.
Don't really think she is a monster. When a fight breaks out, it'll be one group of people fighting each other.
Seeing that she was about to leave, Lu Fanye hurriedly quickened his pace, took a big step, and anxiously grabbed her.
Her palm was still wet, and the coagulated blood covered his hand.
"Xu Wei."
After grabbing the person, he breathed a sigh of relief, looked straight at her, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his lips.
Xu Wei's hands trembled, and he turned to look at him: "Did you recognize him?"
I wouldn't even recognize myself in this look.
"Yeah," he nodded, not letting go of my hand, "I have an anchor."
Xu Wei was surprised: "You figured out the anchor point so quickly? You can recognize me from such a distance? How did you get here?"
"puff."
The sudden three questions made him laugh happily, with a gentle and soothing voice.
Xu Wei glared at him in annoyance.
He laughed enough and looked at her steadily: "You asked so many questions, which one do you want me to answer first?"
Xu Wei moved his fingers, felt the stickiness between the two people's palms, and wanted to pull his hand out: "Whatever, I have killed everyone here anyway, there won't be any problems for the time being."
Lu Fanye smiled without comment, let go of her hand, and told her what happened twenty minutes ago.
As Xu Wei listened, his eyes remained fixed on the woman behind him.
Why aren’t you leaving yet?
After staring at him for too long, the other person suddenly shook and fell to the ground.
Xu Wei: ???
"...So the places where monsters appear should be random, and have little to do with the red dots. The closer to the second ring, the more there are."
"Well, it seems that I guessed wrong." She raised her hand to wipe the blood off her face, and when it rubbed against the wound, she hissed.
Lu Fanye wiped her with his clean sleeve and said, "Go to the store and see if there are any towels."
Next to the two men, the "Red Pepper Happy Lunch" sign was smashed in half and the door frame fell off, but fortunately most of the equipment inside was intact and unaffected.
"Yeah." Xu Wei nodded, but walked around him and walked towards the woman.
She walked up to her, squatted down, and poked the woman's arm.
"Don't pretend, we are all veteran players of both games."
The people on the ground don't move.
Xu Wei had no choice but to stand up, take out his sword, and said expressionlessly: "Are you scared to death? Then I'll give you another blow."
The "corpse" suddenly jumped up and rushed towards Lu Fanye with soft steps: "Don't come over!"
Xu Wei put down his sword speechlessly, feeling a little unhappy.
"At least I saved you."
Lu Fanye dodged the woman's attack and moved away without making a sound. After she calmed down, he lowered his voice and said, "I am the monster."
"Ahhhhh!" The woman got up and rushed towards Xu Wei again.
Xu Wei quickly stepped aside, and when she rushed out, he added: "Actually, you guessed right, I am also a fierce ghost."
This time the man's legs were so frightened that they went limp. He fell to the ground with a thud, and burst into tears.
"I was wrong, I was wrong, please forgive me, wuwuwu..."
Xu Wei looked at her without saying anything.
She was not a kind person. She was the one who saved the man just now and did not touch the man after killing the snake. But as soon as Lu Fanye appeared, she pretended to have seen a monster.
I also deliberately reminded him not to go over there.
Now, she pretended to be weak and helpless because she was frightened by two people.
They are all veteran players who have completed more than two games. To do this is either stupid or evil.
Xu Wei ignored her and turned around and followed Lu Fanye into the store.
The tables and chairs were all over the floor, and the two found three spare flashlights at the bar where they took their orders.
In addition, there are several table knives in the kitchen.
After searching the first floor, the screaming girl also groped her way in. She deliberately avoided the two of them, but Xu Wei ignored her and went straight to the second floor.
The tables and chairs here are very complete, there is also a small sofa, napkins and tablecloths can be used to wipe blood stains, and there is water in the bathroom for cleaning.
With his last breath, Xu Wei managed to clean himself up. Finally, he was exhausted and lay down on the small sofa, breathing silently.
The martial arts master's nameplate became ineffective, and all the blessings on her body were removed. Her sword turned into stars and disappeared. Her muscles were sore from forcing herself to do all kinds of flexible movements, and her whole body was in pain.
It smells and hurts.
It will take another half an hour for the ordinary person's nameplate to expire. During this time, if any monster comes, she will be completely powerless to fight back.
Destroy it all.
Lu Fanye found a chair and sat down next to him.
"Are you hungry?"
"A little bit," Xu Wei turned over and lay on his side, looking at his silhouette in the dark, "but I don't have the strength anymore."
He leaned over and rummaged in his waist bag for a long time, then handed over a pile of bulged things.
Several bags of freshly baked bread had to be squeezed out of the air in the middle so that they could be stacked together and put into a small waist bag.
"Where did you find it?" Xu Wei didn't answer. In fact, she was so hungry that she didn't feel any stomachache, but she didn't have the strength to move.
I'm too lazy to even raise my hands.
Lu Fanye tore open the package and handed it to her: "Eat it, you still have a mission tomorrow."
"And you?"
"I'll eat too."
*
Xu Wei was sleeping in a daze, and in the second half of the night he heard a rustling sound from downstairs.
When I first heard it, I thought a monster was coming, but after listening for a while, it didn't seem like it.
It's the sound of people's clothes rubbing against each other.
More than one.
She woke up instantly and sat up quietly.
Lu Fanye had already taken out the dinner knife and held one in each of their hands.
At the corner of the stairs, a head popped out stealthily, followed by the shadows of two or three people.
The one who came in first whispered, "Boss, it looks like there's no one inside?"
A female voice replied: "Look carefully."
"Really not..."
"Shut up."
She turned on the power on the second floor directly.
In an instant, the whole room was bright, and the sudden light stimulated all eyes in the dark. It was still night outside, and the second floor glowed dimly in the thick night, like an attractive little lighthouse, attracting the ferocious beasts lurking in the darkness to attack.
Xu Wei resisted the urge to use his skills immediately.
They came up in a swaggering manner, even revealing their position by making noises, they didn't seem like they were here to cause trouble.
She and Lu Fanye were standing in the blind spot of the corner, and she put the dinner knife back into her arms.
There were five people coming, two women and three men, one of whom was the screaming girl that Xu Wei rescued on the first floor half of the night.
The woman in the lead had big wavy hair, a great figure, a tight vest and hot pants, honey-colored skin, and thick eyebrows and big eyes.
She stared at Xu Wei for a long time, then turned off the light.
The room fell into darkness.
"Sorry to bother you." Her voice was a little hoarse, and she remained where she was, not coming closer.
Xu Wei took out the knife again: "Is there anything you must tell me at night?"
"I want to apologize to you. My sister must have done something very offensive."
Xu Wei didn't respond.
She continued, "My name is Shaya, and I apologize to you two for my sister Shali's behavior. Because of her abilities, her personality is not very stable. I usually keep an eye on her. This time she was teleported away and it took her a while to come back... So I'm sorry."
"I hope that meeting in the future will not affect our cooperation."
Her attendant muttered quietly beside her: "It didn't just take some effort, it took a lot of effort."
"Corey, shut up. No one will take you for a fool if you don't speak."
The voice of the follower came from her left. He was a thin man who looked young.
"Okay..."
After listening to their internal communication, Xu Wei played with the dinner knife in his hand that shone in the moonlight: "Okay, I accept it. Can you guys leave now?"
"Of course, we'll go now." The sound of rustling clothes came from her side again, and the people standing in the back row had already walked to the first floor.
But there was another sound in the air, like the footsteps of small leather shoes, or like someone running wildly on tiptoe in the dark.
Shaya was panicking on the first floor: "Shali, come back! What are you doing!"
Xu Wei only felt a gust of wind blowing past the corner of the stairs and approaching rapidly.
"Haha..." A weird snicker.
Xu Wei reflexively assumed an attacking stance.
"Please don't hurt her!" Shaya chased to the stairs and shouted loudly.
The gust of wind passed her and headed straight for Lu Fanye.
"elder brother!"
She fell to the ground and missed.
Lu Fanye stepped aside, hesitated for a moment, and moved towards Shaya, but did not get too close to them.
After missing the target, Shali quickly got up and continued to grope for it.
"Brother, you are so handsome."
"Brother, I like you so much, can you marry me?"
"Where are you, brother?"
The deliberately coquettish tone and obviously abnormal state made the two people who were groping in the dark feel their scalps tingling.
Like a female ghost in an old horror movie.
Lu Fanye retreated deeper into the room, his outline hidden in the darkness, and refused silently.
"Brother, where are you? You were here just now?"
Shaya grabbed her while she passed by and held her in her arms: "Sister is here, don't look for brother."
Shali struggled hard and even started screaming, like a mad kid who didn't get his candy: "I don't want it, I don't want it!!"
"I want my brother! Brother! Let me go!"
"You all go to hell—"
The screaming stopped suddenly, and Sali fell into her sister's arms with her head tilted.
There was silence in the room for a moment.
After a while, Xu Wei said calmly: "Can you explain it?"
Her sleep was interrupted by a sudden apology in the middle of the night, and the haunted scene made the people she brought with her uncontrollable, which made her very annoyed.
"Sorry," the other end was silent for a while, and could only repeat the previous words, "My sister's ability is a bit special, and the impact is quite serious, resulting in..."
"She has split personality? Is it caused by her ability?" Xu Wei interrupted her.
He doesn't look like his previous personality.
Under normal circumstances, Xu Wei would not ask questions if the other party obviously did not want to talk about it, but in this situation, Shali obviously seemed to be relying on Lu Fanye, so in order to avoid unnecessary trouble in the future, it would be better to ask clearly.
The other party hesitated for a while, perhaps considering that they had disturbed him first, and did not hide it.
"Shali has 24 personalities, which change randomly every four hours. The prerequisite for her ability to take effect is that her personality load value reaches the maximum, which is what we call being crazy to a certain extent... But we usually only let her act willfully inside, this time it was an accident."
Corey added quietly: "Fortunately, he is not a violent person."
Xu Wei raised her eyebrows: "Does she have a very destructive personality?"
Corey seemed to be hit by an elbow and he whimpered and stopped talking.
Shaya sighed: "Yes, there is a violent maniac, and another is a snake demon."
Xu Wei seemed to understand and did not continue to ask: "What is she like now?"
"The current personality is what we call a little girl. She is quite lively and active, and likes, uh, good-looking people of the opposite sex."
"But don't worry, the little girl is not dangerous. She is the easiest personality to deal with."
Lu Fanye coughed for no apparent reason.
Xu Wei glanced in his direction.
"Of course, we'll handle it ourselves and won't bother you any more."
Xu Wei breathed a sigh of relief: "Okay, if that's the case, I don't have anything else to ask, let's not bother each other?"
"Again, I apologize to both of you."
There was the sound of footsteps again. Five people carried Sali to the first floor, and from the noise it seemed that they went out.
Lu Fanye let out a long sigh in the darkness and lay down on the sofa.
Xu Wei was amused by his reaction. He sat next to him and patted his head: "Are you frightened?"
"A little bit."
Xu Wei had to change the subject: "I think Shali's ability is very strong. From Shaya's description, every personality she imagined should have a concrete form."
Otherwise, if a normal person fantasizes about being a snake demon, at most he will crawl on the ground or bite people, but he cannot be compared with a violent maniac.
What's more, it was the "destructive" personality that Shaya mentioned.
