The Nightingale in the Golden Cage (3)
Hong Zicheng was deeply moved, but he didn't have time to talk to Du Jiaojiao and could only fight as hard as he could.
Others who witnessed this scene were also somewhat shocked.
In everyone's eyes, Du Jiaojiao is a spoiled, unthinking person who likes to rely on others for everything.
I never expected her to have such a brave side.
It seems that she truly loves Hong Zicheng.
Jian Tanxi decided that she would never laugh at Du Jiaojiao again.
Professor Pan activated his superpower—to transform into four versions of himself.
Now there are four Professor Pans on the field.
His superpower has been upgraded several times. At first, he could only create one clone, but now he can create three.
The four Professors Pan, each wielding a knife, fought against the four vicious dogs.
However, the knife was too small, so Professor Pan could only fight the vicious dog at close range and soon suffered several injuries.
Jian Tanxi tossed her interstellar triangular pyramid to one of the Professors Pan, saying, "Professor Pan, use this, it's sharp!"
Professor Pan happened to be the real one. He took the interstellar triangular pyramid and continued fighting the vicious dog.
The interstellar triangular pyramid was far more powerful than a knife, and soon he had drilled several holes in the vicious dog.
The injured dog, enraged, launched an even more ferocious attack on Professor Pan.
At this moment, Hong Zicheng said to Professor Pan, "Professor Pan, I have a special ability that can increase the enemy's rage value. The angrier the enemy is, the faster their strength is consumed, and the lower their judgment will be. Do you need it? The premise is that you can hold on."
Professor Pan said, "Okay."
Hong Zicheng used his supernatural ability on the vicious dogs in front of Professor Pan—"Are you angry?"
This ability only works on enemies who are already angry, increasing their rage level several times over.
This would certainly make the enemy's attacks more intense, but getting angry also consumes a lot of energy, which would accelerate the enemy's fatigue.
Sure enough, the vicious dogs became enraged, and their attack speed and power increased significantly.
Professor Pan was like a veteran general on the battlefield, becoming more and more courageous with each battle. Seeing the enraged dog only fueled his indomitable spirit.
He and his clones fought bravely against the vicious dogs, ignoring the multiple injuries they sustained.
Soon, several Professor Pans gained the upper hand.
The situation on Jian Tanxi's side was even more dangerous.
Hong Zicheng entangled two vicious dogs, Professor Pan entangled four of them, and the remaining four were fighting with Jian Tanxi.
Jian Tanxi couldn't fight off four vicious dogs by herself and gradually became overwhelmed.
Qin Man watched the battle from a distance, holding Qu Chen in her arms. She noticed that among the vicious dogs fighting Jian Tanxi, two had blue eyes and the other two had black eyes.
Qin Man quickly said, "Activate your ability—Sentence Recombination. 'The blue-eyed vicious dog and the black-eyed vicious dog attacked Jian Tanxi together.' Recombined into: 'The blue-eyed vicious dog and Jian Tanxi attacked the black-eyed vicious dog together.'"
As soon as she finished speaking, the two blue-eyed vicious dogs actually stood on Jian Tanxi's side and attacked the other two vicious dogs with her.
Jian Tanxi was pleasantly surprised. It seemed that Qin Man's ability was similar to her own "script modification". The difference was that Jian Tanxi's "script modification" ability was to change a single word, while Qin Man's ability was to split and recombine sentences to achieve a different effect.
With the blue-eyed vicious dog turning against her, Jian Tanxi felt much more at ease.
Qin Man said to her, "Tanxi, keep going! My ability can only last for ten minutes!"
Jian Tanxi didn't turn around, but simply said, "I understand!"
At this moment, Qu Chen suddenly broke free from Qin Man and took out a toy car from his bag.
The toy car was originally very small, but it grew bigger as soon as Qu Chen touched it, just big enough to fit Qu Chen inside.
Qu Chen climbed into the toy car, and the door closed automatically.
Then, the toy car drove forward and into the encirclement of the vicious dogs.
The vicious dogs, distracted by a toy car approaching, tried to attack it.
Qin Man was very worried and kept calling out, "Xiao Chen! Xiao Chen! Come back quickly!"
However, Qu Chen simply sat inside the toy car, curiously looking out. He wasn't driving the car; it moved forward automatically.
Jian Tanxi was closer to the toy car and could see it more clearly. She shouted to Qin Man, "Sister Qin Man, don't worry, those vicious dogs can't open this car. Xiao Chen is safe for now!"
With Qu Chen's toy car distracting the vicious dog, Jian Tanxi and Professor Pan's battle became much easier.
Soon, two vicious dogs on both Jian Tanxi's and Professor Pan's sides were beaten down and rendered unable to fight.
One of Professor Pan's clones was also killed, so there are now only 3 Professor Pans left on the field.
The battle on Hong Zicheng's side was still very close, with neither he nor the two vicious dogs gaining the upper hand.
Du Jiaojiao's wounds multiplied, but she quietly walked away, gritting her teeth and not making a sound so as not to disturb Hong Zicheng.
Suddenly, the toy car door was flung open by the vicious dog, and Qin Man nearly fainted. The dog only needed to stick its paw into the toy car to grab Qu Chen.
And the vicious dog did indeed stick its paw inside.
Jian Tanxi quickly fought with the vicious dog to distract it.
Qu Chen, unaware of how terrifying vicious dogs can be, showed no fear upon seeing their paws. Instead, he took out something resembling a razor from his bag and placed it on the dog's paws.
Suddenly, the razor started shaving the vicious dog's fur by itself. Before long, all the dog's fur was gone.
The razor also fell to the ground.
Although the vicious dog is still very large without its fur, it exposes many weaknesses. Previously, its fur was fluffy and long, making it difficult for players to find its vital points.
But now, with its body completely exposed, it's much easier for players to attack it.
Professor Pan reacted quickly, picking up the razor from the ground and smashing it against another vicious dog. Soon, that dog's fur was also shaved off.
Jian Tanxi picked up the razor again and continued to smash the vicious dog.
Soon, all the vicious dogs on the field became hairless.
While fighting the hairless dog, Jian Tanxi took the opportunity to close the door of the toy car and then kicked the toy car towards Qin Man.
The toy car drove back to Qin Man's side, and Qin Man quickly opened the car door and took Qu Chen out.
After Qu Chen left the car, the toy car shrank again, becoming only the size of a palm. Qu Chen picked it up and put it back in his bag.
Qin Man felt a sense of relief and joy upon seeing that Qu Chen was unharmed.
At this point, only four vicious dogs remained on the field that hadn't been knocked down. The players were also completely exhausted.
Professor Pan has lost another clone, so now there are only two Professor Pans left on the field.
Hong Zicheng's red-tasseled spear was knocked away by the vicious dog. He didn't have time to pick it up, so he could only take out a rope and continue fighting the dog.
However, while the rope was fine for tying up people, it was too difficult for him to tie up the two vicious dogs, and he seemed to be struggling to manage it.
Du Jiaojiao wanted to pick up the red-tasseled spear and hand it to Hong Zicheng, but she was too badly injured and her arm was too weak to lift it.
Qin Man suddenly said, "Activate the superpower—Unyielding. I'll activate this superpower on Hong Zicheng's rope."
As soon as he finished speaking, Hong Zicheng's rope suddenly became straight and hard, like a stick.
Hong Zicheng tried to hit the two vicious dogs with a rope, and to his surprise, he actually hit them and made a sound.
This shows that he can now actually use the rope as a stick, and the rope will not bend for the time being.
The "unyielding" ability can make something that is normally bendable become inflexible, such as ropes, branches, ribbons, etc.
Qin Man said, "Hong Zicheng, this effect will only last for ten minutes. Good luck!"
Hong Zicheng said loudly, "Thank you!"
Before long, all the vicious dogs were beaten down.
Qin Man took out healing pills and gave one to the people who had just fought, and also gave one to Du Jiaojiao.
Although Hong Zicheng's injuries were transferred to Du Jiaojiao, Hong Zicheng had fought for a long time and was exhausted, so he also needed to take a healing pill.
After taking the healing pills, everyone's body and mind recovered, and they continued on their way.
They knew the next challenge was ten vicious wolves, but they had no time to hesitate and could only press on.
After walking for a while, the wall suddenly made a rumbling sound.
Then, ten wolves crawled out from the walls on both sides.
Only then did everyone realize that a large section of the walls on both sides had been hollowed out to make it easier to raise the ten wolves.
These wolves were each two or three meters tall, emitting deafening roars, and their eyes glowed green; they were truly terrifying.
Upon hearing the wolf's howl, the players seemed to have all their strength drained away, collapsing to the ground, unable to move.
Everyone tried desperately to stand up and fight, but they couldn't muster the strength.
The ten wolves continued to howl, and the more howls the players heard, the weaker their spirits became.
The youngest, Qu Chen, had already fainted, and Du Jiaojiao's eyelids were drooping; she was about to pass out as well. The others wouldn't be able to hold on much longer either.
That's when everyone realized why there were so many brooches in the guest rooms.
On the surface, it seems that as long as you pass the three levels, you can rescue the nightingale.
However, players will lose their fighting ability upon hearing the howl of the wolf and can only wait to die.
Many players probably failed on the second level.
Jian Tanxi and others felt hopeless.
At this moment, Qin Man suddenly used all her strength to say, "Ability activated—Successor of the Deaf."
After saying this, Qin Man immediately lost all hearing of the outside world. Of course, she couldn't hear the howling of the wolves either.
She regained her strength and reached out her hand to Jian Tanxi and the others.
She didn't speak, but the others knew she meant to give her the weapon.
The howls of the wolves continued one after another, and even if Qin Man spoke, the other players couldn't hear her, so she could only signal with her eyes.
Jian Tanxi took out his interstellar triangular pyramid and 40-meter-long sword. Qin Man took the 40-meter-long sword but hid the triangular pyramid.
Professor Pan took out seven small knives, which Qin Man put into her bag.
Hong Zicheng took out the red-tasseled spear, but Qin Man shook her head, meaning that she couldn't carry that many weapons and asked Hong Zicheng to put the red-tasseled spear away first.
Du Jiaojiao took out two height-increasing pills and gave them to Qin Man. After Qin Man took them, she grew to more than three meters tall, and her size was close to that of a wolf.
Then, Qin Man went up alone to fight against ten vicious wolves.
Qin Man looked frail and rarely fought. But now, she had to protect her teammates.
She wielded a 40-meter-long broadsword, swaying it precariously, but could never quite manage to cut the wolf.
But she did not back down; she exerted more effort and became more composed with each attempt.
During a lull in the fight, she took out the seven small knives that Professor Pan had given her and threw them at the wolves as hidden weapons.
Although most of the attacks missed, two knives managed to wound two wolves. However, these minor injuries meant little to the wolves and only enraged them. They attacked Qin Man even more fiercely, and she was quickly injured.
