Chapter 274: White Orchid Rain Festival (Fifty-Seven)
The moment the door was opened, Nan Huan felt that some invisible barrier in the room was broken, and the originally silent space seemed to be torn apart, revealing its original appearance.
In several corners of the house, the people who had disappeared reappeared. Everyone woke up because the door was opened, including President Alice who was bewitched to open the door.
She didn't know when her tightly closed eyes had opened, but it was obvious that she didn't understand what had happened. However, those things at the door, they had finally tricked someone into opening the door, so how could they let go of such an opportunity?
President Alice instinctively felt the murderous intent. The moment she raised her eyes, she caught a glimpse of a skeleton attacking her without any explanation. She instinctively wanted to raise her arms to resist, but the next second, Bei Xi took out a whip from somewhere, wrapped her arms around her, and pulled her directly into the house.
Because of the hurry, Bei Xi failed to control the strength well, causing President Alice to hit the table.
"Ouch," she cried out in pain, but when she looked up and saw the skeleton smashing the door frame with one palm, and more skeletons followed behind and rushed into the house, she consciously swallowed the last sentence of "I'm dying of falling" and replaced it with "What is this? She was the one who asked me to open the door just now? Not the president of Hongfen?"
Her tone was full of surprise, and she looked pitiful as if she had been deceived.
The Red Pink Club President who was named came out from the corner, quickly helped the person up, and patted the back of the person's head. "I also heard you knocking on the door, but it was obviously fake. I haven't exposed you yet, and suddenly I saw you open the door directly. Look at her, how does she look like me?"
The president of Hongfen Club was almost laughing because of her anger. She didn't notice anything wrong, and she made the mistake but then pulled herself out of it.
But the current situation did not allow them to bicker, because after successfully opening the door, those dried bones were ready to feast.
"Be careful," the worker's guild president pushed the two men and looked at the crumbling bones with a long sword he took out from the control panel.
But surprisingly, the seemingly fragile bones were actually extremely hard. Instead, the long sword of the Workers' Union President was broken into two pieces and turned into powder with a casual pinch of the opponent.
"Everyone, step back,"
Bei Xi observed the number of people outside the door, but due to limited vision, she could only see densely packed white bones that stretched as far as the eye could see, especially since only a few of them had squeezed in. The house was already in a mess, and wherever they went, there was only ashes.
Bei Xi embraced Nan Huan and retreated to the bedside. After shouting loudly, he pulled the air arrow and shot it at the dead bones attacking from the door.
After a few arrows were fired, an explosion was heard.
The dry bones shattered and scattered all over the ground. But before Nan Huan and the others could breathe a sigh of relief, they saw that after the dust settled, the dry bones scattered on the ground seemed to sense the existence of other parts, regrouped together, and continued to attack everyone.
The compressed space was getting smaller and smaller. President Alice tried to use her own rabbit hole to drag everyone out of this small space temporarily. However, no matter whether she set the exit on the other side of the rabbit hole to the courtyard, outside the high priest's mansion, or even to the street farther away, she failed without exception. They seemed to be trapped in this room, even though the door was open.
At the moment when she was trying her personal skills, a skeleton approached her. Before President Alice could react and before others were busy with their own affairs, it opened its ugly hand and grabbed President Alice's wrist.
An icy cold feeling passed through President Alice's entire body along her wrist bones. She suddenly felt unable to move. The flesh and bones of her body seemed to be reshaped in an instant, and then slowly separated with a strange feeling.
Then she watched helplessly as the flesh on her wrist, which was being held, gradually moved to the dry bones, revealing the sharp wrist bones.
They wanted her skin. President Alice understood it instantly, but she could no longer move or even make a sound. She could only feel that her whole body seemed to be slowly withering.
With a click.
Just when President Alice felt her consciousness slowly drifting away, she suddenly heard a loud noise. When she came to her senses, she found that the dry bones in her arm were directly cut off by the president's iron pick. The dry bones were scattered all over the ground, but that hand was still tightly grasping her wrist to absorb strength, and as a result, it was hit by the president's iron pick again at close range.
It might not die, but it could still feel pain, and it also realized that Beixi was not very sensitive to heat. It was too painful to be hit by this thing, so it had to temporarily give up the meat that was already at its mouth, let go of President Alice's hand, and looked for other parts of its body in a cricket-like state.
President Alice breathed a sigh of relief. She was finally able to make a sound and move again. However, there was another circle of scars on her wrists, and the white bones could be seen directly. It looked very scary.
"This thing can't be touched, and it can't be killed," President Alice dared not take it lightly again, "I can't use my personal skills. I can't locate any place other than this room. It seems that we are restricted here."
She shook her wrist, creating a rabbit hole, and crawled in from one end with the Red Powder President who was almost entangled by the bones. She crawled out from a rabbit hole on the bed and played hide-and-seek with the bones in the narrow space.
But as more and more dry bones poured into the room, their space was compressed and this trick would no longer work.
On the other side, after helping President Alice solve the trouble, Bei Xi immediately returned to Nan Huan, hugged De Yao, and flew into the air with the help of Nan Huan's wings.
After all, they were inside the house, and Nanhuan's wings were affected, so he could only flap them with difficulty. Beixi was responsible for driving away the dry bones that were rushing up. The two tried to use this method to see if they could temporarily leave the house.
Unfortunately, before Nan Huan got close to the door, she felt as if there was a restriction blocking the door and preventing them from leaving.
"It doesn't seem to work," Nan Huan tried a few times, and took Bei Xifei back to the corner, "The space is getting smaller and smaller, and there are more and more dead bones. We can't kill them, and we can't touch them. This won't work."
"Since we can't get out, let's blow them up." Bei Xi had thought of a solution in an instant. She turned around and said, "President Barbie, can you lend me your personal skills? We need a shelter for now."
When President Barbie heard what President Yi said, she quickly understood what the other party wanted to do.
President Workers, President Alice, and President Pink also heard it, and the three of them began to attract firepower to leave space for themselves. Soon, President Barbie's personal skills were activated, and she turned into a King Kong with iron arms, blocking President Yi and the eldest lady behind her, and calling for several other people to come over.
At the same time, the president's air arrows shot in all directions without any explanation.
Huge roars and explosions were heard. Nan Huan was held in Bei Xi's arms and covered his mouth and nose, but he could still smell the huge smell of gunpowder.
They did not trigger any tasks, nor did they encounter any hidden rules of the game. No matter what they were facing now or what the effect would be after opening the door, Nan Huan felt that it was most likely the work of the evil god or Man Wugui. In other words, if the correct method was found, it could be solved.
For example, if you can't get out through the door now, the next best thing is to blow up the whole house.
In the narrow space, Bei Xi used a large number of air arrows. Even if those dry bones could not die at all, no dry bones would be willing to die directly in such a large explosion.
So at the moment of the explosion, the dry bones that were originally eager to rush into the house ran out of the house like crazy, not wanting to be affected, but many of them were still scattered by the explosion.
Unless there are special rules of the game, no house can withstand the power of Beixi's air arrows.
By the time Nan Huan reacted, the entire house, not to mention the walls, even the roof had been blown away. Nan Huan flapped his wings and leaped into the air with Bei Xi, but when she saw the scene below, she couldn't help but be surprised.
After all, when they were inside the house, Nan Huan couldn't see clearly how many enemies they had because of the limited vision. But now flying in the air, she could clearly see that the entire Bailan City had been occupied by white dry bones. The dry bones from all directions, like white waves, poured into the high priest's mansion, looking for their scent.
"Oh my god, I'm having a panic attack." After the room was blown up, everyone temporarily found a few flying props to avoid being caught by the skeletons. They barely hung in the air. But before President Alice could even appreciate the beautiful scenery, she was disgusted by the dense skeletons. She covered her nauseous stomach and said, "It seems that we can't leave. The map of this mission is limited to Bailan City. Even if we have flying props, we can't leave the scope of Bailan City. We can't just hide. We have to find a way to solve it. It seems that this thing is not afraid of fire."
The fire caused by the explosion was quickly extinguished by the dead bones and bodies that followed one after another.
"They have already started climbing the roof." The Workers' Guild President looked at the people beside him and saw that they were climbing the dry bones of the pillars in order to achieve their goal. He was a little amused and said, "It seems that they are very interested in our skins and will not retreat until they get them."
The situation was obviously critical, but this statement sounded a bit absurd.
President Pink and President Barbie on the side were more pragmatic. After temporarily escaping from danger, they searched the control panel for props that could be used to deal with these dry bones. They threw them down one by one and watched the reactions of the dry bones below.
Ku Gu, who was originally at ease, saw the duck that was right next to his mouth flying in mid-air. He became very angry because he couldn't get it into his mouth and let out a hissing roar.
In addition, although those props could not kill them, they kept interfering with them. Those dry bones hissed and no one knew what they were communicating.
Nanhuan and Beixi have also been observing the surrounding environment. Although Nanhuan's wings have no time limit, the flying props are time-limited. Besides, they still have tasks to complete and can't waste time here with these dead bones.
Moreover, Nanhuan always had a bad feeling that if they couldn't solve the problems in front of them, the day would never come.
If it doesn't get light, it means the next day will never come. They can do nothing but be trapped here.
