Chapter 86: The Colorful City 15 "Tell me, I'll give you everything...
Fourteen crystal hourglasses are located in the most conspicuous place in the magnificent hall. The colorful sand is shining brightly under the refraction of the crystal. Seven crystal hourglasses are already full of sand, and the other seven hourglasses are also filled with sand to a certain extent. The first one is filled with pure pink sand, and the last one is filled with almost the same amount of pure blue sand. The second one is more special as it is almost empty. The third one has more blue and green sand. The fourth one is more special as it has collected almost all the colors on the hair of the citizens of the Colorful City, but each layer of color is very rare. At first glance, you might think it is an M&M bean vending machine.
The remaining two are mostly green, purple and red, and are already more than half.
"So, red represents anger..." An Rao looked at the red layer on the top of the crystal hourglass of the player who was so angry that he jumped up and down and pointed at him and cursed, and muttered to himself, "Brother Shi didn't forget to leave us clues when he was so angry that he lost his mind. Brother Shi is really... amazing!"
At this point in the Colorful City, there are only seven players left alive. Apart from the four of them, there is only Li Ke, a player with terrifying strength, and two players who are furious because they are obviously at a disadvantage.
"So what are the rules of death?" asked the player who had a bad temper and looked fierce.
"It's very simple. Your hourglass is collecting your emotions. People have joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness. The more your emotions are mobilized, the more sand your hourglass loses. When the hourglass is full, you will die." Li Ke had no intention of hiding anything. This was the whole truth.
"That's it?" The player said in disbelief. "If I remain calm, won't I be able to survive until the end of the game?"
"No, how could the boss in the game be so stupid? May I ask to what extent has your body become a puppet?" Li Ke always had a slight smile on his face and his emotions were very stable.
The player's face was extremely ugly. The scene of his arm being crushed was seen by everyone. He couldn't hide it even if he wanted to. Since he couldn't hide it, he simply gave up. The player stiffened his neck and said, "I am indeed becoming a puppet. Aren't everyone else becoming a puppet? What am I afraid of!"
"Oh, I don't mean anything else. I just want to remind you. Although I think the puppet state will recover after leaving the Colorful City, but..." Li Ke raised his hand and tapped his forehead with his index finger, "If even the head is puppet-like, I'm not sure if it can be restored after returning."
So there is no point in surviving, you must escape as soon as possible.
"I have a feeling that the longer Papa keeps us trapped in the castle, the less likely it is that the exit will be in the castle," An Rao said.
"I agree, but how to get out is a problem." Li Ke walked to An Rao and took over the conversation without knowing when.
An Rao:?
"It's getting late, let's go back to the room." Bai Chuan walked to An Rao's side without knowing when. His silver armor made a solemn sound of metal and stone. Bai Chuan stretched out his long and powerful arms and grabbed the thin shoulders of the cute Lolita youth, and took him away without saying a word.
"Sister Yirou, don't you think Brother Bai is very fierce? I'm worried that they will fight soon..." Su Ming looked worriedly at the back of Baichuan, whose black cloak fluttered and who looked like a supermodel. He was extremely worried that his boss would suffer.
"Silly child," Shi Yirou looked at Su Ming lovingly, "You have to call him brother-in-law."
Su Ming: ???
Su Ming:!!!
The view from the rooms on the first floor is not as good as that on the third floor. You can't see the strange-shaped trees in the grove, only layers of thick or light green. After dark, the color turns to dark or light black, which makes people feel a little depressed.
"Have you ever thought about climbing out?" An Rao drew the curtains and staggered to sit on the small sofa in the living room.
"Do you remember the patrol mechanism I mentioned before?" Bai Chuan leaned against the wall covered with exquisite embroidered wall cloth, the white feathers by his ears sparkling in the warm light of the room, "From Monday to Saturday, these six priests are responsible for patrolling the castle. Although each person's route is different, the patrol distance and time difference are always fixed. If you go out rashly, there is a high probability that any of them will directly trigger the patrol defense mechanism and be killed."
"This is very intriguing," An Rao shook his head vigorously, trying to keep himself awake, but he felt his body getting hotter and hotter, and his mind getting more and more dizzy, "Hey, is the aftereffect of tonight's drinking so strong..."
Baichuan stood in the dim light. The floor lamp next to the sofa added a layer of moving golden light to the person on the sofa. The young man's exposed skin began to turn pink in large areas. His straight collarbone seemed to be splashed with a layer of pink like an oil painting, and then gradually deepened in the golden oil light, and then spread upwards along the neck, until the young man's delicate cheekbones were also stained with a cloud of cloud.
"It's so hot," the young man pulled at his collar, which was restrained by his vest, "Why is your room so hot?"
Something was wrong, Baichuan stood up and walked over, but he didn't have time to stop the young man.
"It's too hot!" The young man's cheeks, nose and chest were already burned red, and his half-open eyes were filled with a misty light. He kept pulling at his clothes with shaking hands. It's too hot! The lace sleeves slipped off, revealing his smooth and round shoulders.
"Calm down." It was about the glass of champagne. Baichuan strode over and tried to hold down An Rao's hand that was untying the ribbon, but he was still not as quick as the young man. The white lace stockings fell down, and the beautiful long legs were exposed under the light. The pale skin was glowing pink and the golden light of the floor lamp. It was really too tempting. Baichuan didn't understand why his body would react before his brain, and... it was such a direct reaction.
"Ah! It smells so good!" An Rao, who was unconscious and trapped in the hot hell, suddenly smelled a cool scent like ice and snow. He instinctively moved towards the ice and snow. The cold armor made him feel cool, but it also stimulated his desire, just like feeding a starving person a small piece of bread which will only make him feel hungrier.
Baichuan's cold big hand touched the young man's burning skin. He was burned and subconsciously pulled his hand back, but the young man held it tightly, as if a thirsty person had finally found a source of water.
"Oh, so comfortable." The disheveled young man came up intoxicatedly, and then began to grope Baichuan's body very unsatisfiedly. His puppet-like fingers did not know how to control the strength. At this moment, the young man was like a wild little animal, declaring his desires to the person in front of him.
The puppet-like cold fingertips touched the throat, and before Kashiwachuan could react, the buckles of the armor were randomly opened by the young man, and the black cloak had fallen to the ground at some point. While trying to stop the young man, both of them were tripped by the black cloak on the ground and fell onto the sofa together.
The young man took advantage of the situation and hooked Baichuan's neck, and his hot tongue barged in violently. This scene seemed familiar, Baichuan pressed the young man's smooth and thin shoulders with both hands, but the young man took the opportunity to untie the waist belt of the armor.
The cold and hard armor suddenly relaxed, and Baichuan felt that a string that had been taut in his mind suddenly broke with a "snap".
The kiss of the person in the arms is so eager and painful, it is as if using his soul to grab another soul. The person who is thirsty for water holds up the precious water that he has finally obtained and drinks it. The water that he cannot swallow in time overflows from the corners of his mouth and slowly flows down the steep and graceful jawline over the side of his neck.
Those who finally got the water sighed with satisfaction.
In the midst of passion, An Rao's hair turned white in clumps, shining like pearls under the dim light. Bai Chuan was unable to stop the young man from going crazy because of the drugs that were tightly tied to him, and he was at a loss as to what to do as he watched his hair turning white.
For the first time, Baichuan felt the pain of being unable to keep a girl. He hugged the young man tightly, who was immersed in lust. His hair kept turning white in his uncontrollable pity. In the empty castle hall, pink and blue snowflakes fell silently in two crystal hourglasses, one at the head and the other at the tail.
"Give it to me, Baichuan." The young man, whose body was as red as a ripe peach, begged.
"Okay." Baichuan answered decisively. He picked up An Rao with both hands and threw him onto the bed in the bedroom, then closed the bedroom door neatly.
"Tell me, where is the princess's dagger?" Bai Chuan kissed An Rao's hot face, and his rough fingertips stroked the young man's red eyes. He comforted him, bewitched him, and whispered seductively, "Tell me, and I'll give you everything."
"Clang." A dagger glittering with jewels soon fell out of the young man's wristband. Bai Chuan picked up the dagger and cut his wrist without hesitation. Blood immediately gushed out. Bai Chuan held down the young man who was still struggling with one hand, and then forcefully put his wrist to the young man's mouth, forcing him to swallow the gushing blood. They didn't have an antidote, but the blood and pain could at least calm both sides down.
Bright red blood dripped onto the young man's white hair. The heavy snow in the hall stopped suddenly. An Rao woke up and looked at Bai Chuan in a daze. He reached out and touched Bai Chuan's hair, which was almost completely silver-white, in disbelief.
"So blue represents pity, sadness, and sorrow, right?" An Rao asked softly.
Baichuan did not answer, but his silence said it all. He was a man who never lied, and this would never change.
"I'm sorry..." An Rao tremblingly touched the knife wound on Baichuan's wrist that was still bleeding.
"It's not your fault," Baichuan bit a piece of cloth to bandage himself, "We must leave as soon as possible."
"It's the glass of champagne."
"Giving you poisonous champagne means that it's starting to get anxious, but why is it anxious?" Baichuan was unable to tie his bandage properly.
An Rao climbed down from the bed and walked to Baichuan. His legs were still trembling slightly, and beautiful lace stockings and green ribbons were scattered around his ankles. Baichuan calmly looked away, and a layer of pink appeared in the pure blue crystal hourglass.
"Let me do it. I'm a doctor." The cold puppet fingers reached out and quickly and lightly tied the white bandage on Baichuan's wrist. Bright red blood immediately seeped out of the white bandage. One could imagine how deep and fierce the cut was before. Soon, the beautiful pink crystal hourglass was stained with a layer of blue snow.
“I’m sorry…” An Rao apologized softly, his voice was low and he seemed very obedient.
Baichuan's heart softened again, and he was startled by the white hair in front of him. He changed the subject and said, "Look, the moon will be full soon."
An Rao looked out the window. A heavy moon was hanging in the deep blue night sky. It was almost pure red and round, like a drop of blood that was about to fall.
"Since it is a monster that eats human emotions, and the full moon can harvest the emotions of the people in the city, it should be happy. Why did it give me drugs in advance?" An Rao paced in the room in confusion, his two white legs dangling in front of Bai Chuan, "Is it because the nightmare is full of negative emotions and he is afraid of indigestion?"
“No way…” The young man, who was as beautiful as a mountain elf because of his white hair, tilted his head.
"There are two possibilities. One possibility is that it really needs love and pity, two very unique and rare emotions. This is why he calls you and me prezioso. Another possibility is that it is not actually the boss of the Colorful City. Tomorrow's full moon night is the boss coming to harvest emotions, so it is very anxious and hopes to give itself some benefits before the boss comes."
An Rao pondered for a while, then said, "I lean towards the second possibility, otherwise it can't explain why it had to drug me before the full moon. And, according to the logic of the Colorful City and the process of my puppetization, when my puppetization is complete, it will naturally harvest all my emotions. But according to the law of puppetization, I completely turned into a puppet on the second day after the full moon."
"So, it's not the boss of the Colorful City," An Rao suddenly clapped his hands, "Ah! No wonder it won't let us go out. Because it's not the boss, the exit and the seal must not be in the castle. If we can't get out, won't we be at its mercy?!"
"We must leave the castle!" An Rao said in a loud voice.
"Well, you are not allowed to wear shorts when you go out." Baichuan seconded.
An Rao: ???
"But how do we get out, and how do we force out the boss of the Colorful City? If we can't find the boss, we can't find the exit and seal of the Colorful City." This is another difficult problem. The defense of the Holy Light Castle is very strict. Even if they escape from the Holy Light Castle by chance, they don't know who the boss is and where he is. Going out blindly will only increase the chance of death.
"I used the excuse that your medicine was taking effect to close the bedroom door. The sound was very loud and Papa should be able to hear it. Now is the best time for us to sneak out." Bai Chuan took An Rao's feelings into consideration and just described the previous situation objectively, but An Rao's ears under his white hair immediately turned red.
"Ahem," An Rao coughed weakly, "Well, does that mean we are now temporarily free of surveillance?"
"Well, and since it announced that there would be no classes, the butlers in front of the door have also withdrawn. Obviously, Papa now wants players to walk around and trigger the death rule of collecting emotions."
"Like killing each other."
"Yes, or being threatened by the puppets in the castle."
"I think," An Rao looked at the priests who had passed by the window, and counted them while talking to Bai Chuan. This was the third priest who passed by the window, but they were not patrolling close to the castle. Instead, they were patrolling on the gravel wasteland between the castle wall and the castle wall. "It should be no problem for us to walk close to the castle."
"Well, you can try. The worst that can happen is that you'll be discovered. I don't think it will be willing to kill you or me for the time being."
The window of a room on the first floor was silently opened, and a black figure leaned out of the window. After confirming that there was no danger, he gestured towards the window. Soon, a smaller figure wrapped in a black robe also appeared in front of the window. Both of them were dressed in the same black clothes, and only the white lace stockings that occasionally appeared under the black robes could be used to distinguish who was who.
According to the exploration in the past few days, the internal structure of the Holy Light Castle has become very clear. It can be divided into two wings with the hall as the center. The left wing is the dormitory for the apprentices, the first and second floors of the right wing are the restaurant and classroom respectively, and the third floor of the right wing is a restricted area that no one has ever been to, and that is the destination for tonight.
