Chapter 142 My Dear Brother
The man lying on the chair had turned into a dried skeleton with only skin but no flesh and blood.
The skull was beheaded and the clothes hanging on its body were torn into pieces by its sharp claws, making it impossible to tell its specific identity.
The child stepped on the man's calves, knees, thighs, and then on his empty belly.
He drank too much blood and grew to the size of a ten-year-old. His kick actually caused the man's body to cave inward.
The child grew sharp teeth and bit hard into the skin of the dead man's neck.
He sucked with his mouth for a long time but couldn't draw out any blood, so he tore off the piece of skin in frustration.
The bones couldn't withstand such an impact and immediately broke into pieces.
The child stood on the ground and patted his belly to remind him to let the contents of his stomach come out.
"elder brother."
The child called softly, "It's time to eat, brother."
A gap as wide as two hands was cut open in his stomach. A sharp claw stretched out from the gap, grabbed a human bone from the chair, and countless small mouths instantly grew on it, devouring the bone.
In the end, only half a piece of torn human skin was left.
The child clings to the chair leg obsessively, rubbing his little face against it, and says in a sweet voice: "Mom."
His eyes gradually turned red.
"Thank you mom, it's delicious mom."
He shook his swollen belly, stood up from the ground with difficulty, and walked out the door swaying from side to side.
"Mom, I'm going to find the next good mom."
…
There is no mandatory gathering in this dungeon. Everyone has their own ideas and they are too scattered, so even though the venue is not large, players rarely meet each other.
Having said that, Li Ziyue still felt strange.
He vaguely felt that the whole scene was more or less affected by his consciousness. When he needed clues, the NPC residents who stayed at home would come out. When he was immersed in other problems, these NPCs seemed not to exist in the copy.
However, considering that he was mentally polluted, Li Ziyue did not dare to assert whether this was true or a coincidence.
He rarely hesitates like this. The most difficult part of this copy is not to identify fake people, but to find something or someone that he can completely believe is real.
Thinking about the end, he even doubted himself.
Li Ziyue shook his head and focused on choosing a room.
The room conditions on the second night were much worse than Li Ziyue had imagined.
According to his inference, at most 8 players would survive after the second night. He thought that with the fake people mixed in the crowd, there would be a room rush tonight. However, now it is less than 5 minutes to 12 o'clock, and only 6 people have chosen their rooms.
Is it that everyone hasn’t figured out the room selection rules yet, or... the actual number of survivors has dropped drastically?
Li Ziyue stared at Room 9 opposite him, biting his lower lip, with a bad expression on his face.
At the last minute, room 9 showed 1 person staying.
[Congratulations on choosing the right room and surviving successfully. I wish you a pleasant second day in the Mirror Community~]
Li Ziyue just breathed a sigh of relief, but he felt the room shaking twice again. When he opened his eyes, Li Ziyue was stunned.
[Zhang Lian] stood opposite him and winked at him.
"Zhang Lian?" Li Ziyue looked up. "Where have you been?"
[Zhang Lian] raised one eyebrow: "I was assigned a difficult task."
He walked over and rubbed one of Li Ziyue's ears: "But in this situation, I would rather the first thing you say when you see me is that you miss me."
Zhang Lian is not usually like this. Knowing that the person in front of him is a fake, Li Ziyue's movements froze for a moment and he said intermittently: "Oh."
But he didn't push it away.
[Zhang Lian] It seems like he laughed.
There was another rumble of thunder outside. Huge raindrops hit the window. The sound of water hit Li Ziyue's ears. His heartbeat quickened uncontrollably and his brain felt dizzy.
The strands of hair lurking underground seemed to stretch out again, grabbing his ankles and pulling him desperately into the deeper part of the pool.
The cold water seemed to be a thousand-pound iron block pressing down on Li Ziyue. His lips trembled until they lost color, and he felt weak.
[Zhang Lian] glanced out the window and frowned.
He covered Li Ziyue's ears and put noise-canceling earplugs on him.
Li Ziyue leaned to the side and retched.
He coughed a few times, and the water in his body gradually receded, and then he managed to get up.
Mental pollution has seriously affected his actions. Now, not only his imagination, but also the sound of water will make him feel powerless.
To make matters worse, the wound on the inside of his wrist seemed to have split open, and blood was leaking out and dripping along his fingertips.
The pain coming from there seemed to be warning Li Ziyue.
Time is running out.
[Zhang Lian] was bandaging Li Ziyue's hand but was stopped by Li Ziyue.
He shook his head: "No."
Having said that, the wound on his arm became more serious, and even the white bones could be vaguely seen.
[Zhang Lian] looked gloomy towards Li Ziyue for the first time. He picked up Li Ziyue without saying a word and pushed him towards the bed.
Before Li Ziyue could struggle, the next moment the window behind him was kicked into pieces by someone from outside.
[Li Ziyue] came in through the window with a gloomy face.
[It is detected that the number of people in the room violates the rules. Please make adjustments within one minute. Please do not ignore this warning because you cannot bear the consequences.]
"Why are you here again?" Li Ziyue looked over.
"You'd be surprised if I didn't come," Li Ziyue grabbed his hand and said, "Come with me."
"Where to go?"
[Li Ziyue] said angrily: "You forced me to come here, and now you ask me where I'm going."
"When did I force you?"
[Li Ziyue] looked at him coldly: "You are not worried at all that you will lose in the 24-hour gambling with me, because you know best that if I want to torture you, I will not let you die because of such a lame excuse as 'not found within the time limit'."
"So from the moment we made the bet, you never thought about actually going to the place I mentioned. You knew I would come to you in the end."
Li Ziyue laughed: "Really? I can't guess you."
[Li Ziyue] said in a cold voice: "You can see through my thoughts in an instant, and I can also tell that you are lying."
"My dear brother, if you want to use me, just say so. Stop pretending."
