Chapter 217 Touching the Box
Looting boxes is a common game.
Except for the front facing the audience, the other sides of the black box were covered by black cloth, so the players could not see the items inside the box at all.
What is unseen means unknown, and for humans, the unknown means fear.
The greatest fears in the world come from human imagination.
In dungeons, it's obviously even less likely that the game will put anything good in the chests.
Jiang Liyue couldn't see what was in the box, but from the surprise and pity of the crowd under the float, she could sense that it was not simple.
The headmaster seemed quite satisfied with everything. He looked at Jiang Liyue and snorted, "Madam, if you're willing to throw away the balloon in your hand, perhaps we can relax the game requirements for you."
His tone carried disgust for the little octopus balloon, and a hint of malice.
Jiang Liyue has a "strange encounter and strange love" aura, and in dungeons, the strange creatures usually treat her with kindness first.
The fact that the headmaster acted with such obvious malice only shows that his disgust for the little octopus balloon outweighed the goodwill brought by the "mysterious love" aura.
It seems they really hate it.
Jiang Liyue refused him again: "No need, Principal. I think I can complete the game on my own. After all, you said it was very simple, didn't you?"
The principal was rejected and glared at her angrily, her eyes, which took up most of her face, filled with even deeper malice.
He chuckled deliberately, "Of course, of course! Let's begin the game. After you guess what's inside all five black boxes, you'll receive a wonderful amusement park gift pack that I've prepared!"
The eerie NPC pushing the black box looked at Jiang Liyue with a hint of pity.
Their boss is an absolute jerk! How could he bully such a beautiful and lovely tourist!
When the box was placed in front of Jiang Liyue, the eerie voice softened a bit: "Please, Miss Tourist."
Jiang Liyue didn't notice the NPC's emotional change. She glanced at the box covered by a black cloth in front of her and reached down without hesitation.
From the perspective of the audience below the float, they could clearly see a red heart slowly beating inside the black box.
The heart was bright red, as if it had just been taken from the body and was still beating vividly.
Jiang Liyue's hands were soft and fair, but they seemed to lack any strength and were smaller than half a heart, making them a striking visual contrast in the black box.
Her hand continued to reach down, and the instant it touched her heart between her middle fingers, it seemed as if the heart had turned into flowing blood.
Following her fingertips, it seemed to want to envelop and devour her skin.
This is certainly not an ordinary heart, but a strange heart with bizarre powers. Its method of feeding is to wrap a person in its skin and gradually melt their flesh.
Finally, the prey will turn into a pool of blood.
The kindergarten director watched this scene with malice.
Let's keep going, let's just eat her up... Who told her to bring such an annoying thing with her!
Jiang Liyue also felt the slippery texture in her palm at this moment, and she frowned in disgust.
As blood gradually spread across her palms, she grabbed him with her backhand and then threw him away violently.
She actually managed to grab his heart and fling it out, where it slammed against the wall of the black box with a thud.
That wasn't enough. Jiang Liyue reached out and grabbed the slippery lump again, slapping it repeatedly like dough.
So the black box was filled with a series of slapping sounds.
Finally, the heart stopped moving. Jiang Liyue smiled and touched it, then tilted her head and said to the headmaster, "This is a heart, isn't it?"
The headmaster's expression froze after Jiang Liyue first flung her heart out.
I still haven't realized it.
How could that be!
The eerie cannot be grasped simply by physical force, let alone by a heart containing power.
But this female tourist is clearly an ordinary human being, so how could she possess such superhuman and incomprehensible power!
This is not an ordinary person at all!
Seeing that the headmistress didn't answer, Jiang Liyue blinked in confusion: "Did I guess wrong?"
Principal: "...You guessed right."
Maybe she's just lucky. There are still four boxes left. I don't believe she can stay this lucky forever.
Then Jiang Liyue showed just how good her "luck" really was.
She smashed the contents of the last four boxes around, especially the last one containing a human head.
As Jiang Liyue reached out, he opened his mouth wide, revealing a row of sharp teeth, waiting for her hand to fall into his trap.
The moment she closed her mouth even slightly, her hand would snap into food in his mouth...
Who knew that Jiang Liyue would grab the man's teeth and crush the head with one hand, causing blood and brain matter to explode, leaving a large bloodstain inside the black box.
The scene was extremely bloody.
The movement was so fast that no one had time to react.
After a moment of silence, a huge cheer erupted from the crowd.
【Ahhh, my wife is so handsome!】
I don't know why, but I feel a phantom headache in my head.
[The cowards in front, I'm different, my wife Yueyue pinches me ///]
To be honest, I'm also very curious about why my wife can directly attack the supernatural.
[Maybe this is Yueyue's initial item coming into play. After watching so many livestreams, have you ever seen your wife show off her items?]
That's true...
The comments started veering off-topic, focusing on analyzing Jiang Liyue's initial items.
Jiang Liyue, however, calmly took her hand out of the black box: "The last one is a complete human head, right? Oh, of course, it may be broken now."
"There's one more thing. My hands are a bit dirty. Could you get me some water to wash them?"
She revealed her hand, which was mixed with brain matter and blood, yet it still looked fair and delicate.
Yet it possesses such immense power.
Director Ren couldn't understand how such a small hand could crush the heads he had prepared.
Is this still a power that humans can possess?
While the headmaster was still confused, the clever and eccentric NPC next to her had already brought Jiang Liyue a basin of water.
In such an environment, she was still able to calmly and carefully wash her hands...
"You, you damaged the props!" the director angrily accused him. "Those are our employees."
Jiang Liyue blinked innocently: "But the rules didn't say we couldn't damage the props at the beginning."
Principal: ...He really didn't say that, because he never imagined that anyone could do that.
The game's premise is to destroy the participants, not the items.
The headmistress's eyes widened, almost bulging out, her back hunched, and her voice grew increasingly shrill and piercing: "No, this isn't right..."
He seemed to want to attack.
Just then, a gust of wind blew by, and the little octopus balloon in Jiang Liyue's hand swayed twice.
The headmaster was visibly angrier, but he stopped his attack: "Here you go!"
He pulled a box from his person and threw it to Jiang Liyue, then snorted and left unwillingly.
Jiang Liyue looked at his retreating figure and blinked in confusion.
Did she just see a long tail growing out from behind the headmaster?
