After walking to Xia Linyin's side and pausing for a moment, Arthur squatted down and picked up the clown doll from the ground.
Oh! So Arthur went there to pick up that doll!
Chad gave a helpless smile and said, "Arthur, we should go—"
Chad's words came to an abrupt halt as he saw Arthur make another incomprehensible move. This was the second time he had called out to him, and Arthur had ignored him. It should be noted that Arthur had never disobeyed his orders before.
The tall figure squatted down in front of Xia Linyin. Arthur stared blankly at Xia Linyin, then grabbed the doll in his hand and kissed the red mark on Xia Linyin's chin that Chad had pinched.
The clown doll with a sinister grin was held by the man, who gently touched Xia Linyin's face. The doll still had a ferocious and terrifying smile, while the man still had a blank expression.
Xia Linyin: "..."
Can anyone tell her what's going on?
Why did he take her doll and pat her face?
Even more perplexed than Xia Linyin was Chad. No one in the world knew his son better than him, but at this moment, he couldn't understand what his son was doing at all.
Chad's face darkened with displeasure, and he called out again, "Arthur—"
Fortunately, this time Arthur obediently came over, listened to Chad's words, grabbed the back of the iron chair and dragged Wu Yuan out, without doing anything strange again.
The chair legs scraped against the ground, making a piercing sound that seemed to puncture one's eardrums, sending chills down one's spine with each screech.
Even more chilling than the sound was Wu Yuan's desperate struggle, his roars with tape stuck in his throat, like an angry, trapped beast crying blood.
His eyes were bloodshot, and his gaze was filled with resentment and unwillingness, as if a raging fire was burning inside.
With a clang, the iron gate slammed shut again, cutting off Xia Linyin and the others' view. The sound of the iron chair scraping against the ground gradually faded into the distance until it could no longer be heard.
All that remained in my ears was a suffocating silence and quiet.
After an unknown amount of time, Chen Zhi's sobs broke the long silence.
Bai Xiaolin turned to look at Xia Linyin, his eyes filled with disbelief, as if asking, "Brother Wu, are we just going to be dragged along like this? Will he die? Will he really die? Is there some other trick he hasn't used yet?"
Brother Wu was the most experienced and capable among the five of them, but now he was being dragged down like a pig waiting to be slaughtered, and he might become the first one to fall. He thought the one most likely to survive was the first one to die. Bai Xiaolin couldn't believe this result for a moment.
Xia Linyin shook her head. She didn't know. Her gaze fell on the clown doll on her lap. Xia Linyin thought of the clown with exaggerated makeup, who acted strangely and eccentrically, but who smiled like a child when riding the Ferris wheel with her.
At that moment, the clown's eyes sparkled, no longer dark and gloomy.
They probably won't have a chance to meet again.
It turns out he wasn't the only NPC with a bug in the game; she encountered the same one. There's practically no chance of survival in a game like this. I wonder if he knew there was another cannibalistic demon who, like him, knew he was an NPC.
Wu Yuan never appeared again after leaving, shattering Bai Xiaolin's last illusion and making her realize that Wu Yuan was gone forever.
He couldn't even imagine what Wu Yuan would go through after being dragged away, or how that perverted cannibal would turn him into cured meat and eat him.
He dared not even think about who among the remaining people would be the next to die.
Is it Xia Linyin, Chen Zhi, Ying Meihui, or him?
A sense of fear constantly enveloped him. Whenever he heard footsteps outside the iron gate, his blood would run cold and his limbs would feel as if they had just been pulled out of ice water.
This feeling of tension, fear, and unease reached its peak when Chen Zhi became the next person to be killed off and was dragged away.
Chen Zhi's sobs lingered in his ears even after she was dragged away, like a demonic sound piercing his eardrums; he couldn't even cover his ears with his hands.
Another person has been dragged away. Who will be next? Will it be him?
He didn't want to die, he really didn't want to die!
Amen! God! Buddha! Guanyin Bodhisattva! Jade Emperor! Laozi! Save him! Someone please save him!
Can't a miracle happen?!
Is there any chance of a miracle?
The sound of the iron gate opening startled Xia Linyin, Bai Xiaolin, and Ying Meihui from their deep sleep. Their bodies, which had been starving for two days, were weak and powerless. None of the three were in good condition, and all of them had heavy dark circles under their eyes.
Compared to the three of them, who were in a daze, Chad was radiant, as if he had eaten divine flesh, exuding the message "I am fine, I am very good, I am great" from head to toe.
Arthur followed behind him, still looking completely wooden.
Chad's face revealed a cruel smile, and his words were like ice water poured over Xia Linyin and the others, "Your companions are extremely satisfying. I haven't eaten such tender meat in a long time. I can't bear to finish it all. I've decided to save the rest for later. So, who's next?"
Chad walked over to the three of them, pacing back and forth in front of them, his gaze sweeping over their faces. He said with some excitement, "You're all eager to be cooked into delicious food by me, aren't you?"
He suddenly stopped in front of Bai Xiaolin, staring at her without saying a word, his gaze terrifyingly deep. Just as Bai Xiaolin was about to faint from nervousness, Chad finally spoke.
"You're really too thin, and you'd be perfect for being kept indoors. Don't worry about what trouble you'll cause, although no matter what you do, you can't escape Arthur and me."
He patted Bai Xiaolin on the shoulder, "I'll enjoy you last after I've finished eating all the other meat."
Upon hearing Chad's words, Bai Xiaolin didn't know whether to be happy or sad. He didn't want to die, but the process of waiting to die was just as agonizing.
How can one avoid being eaten by cannibals?
God! Please save them!
“I’ve made up my mind…” Chad pointed a finger at Charlene, slowly raising the corners of his mouth, “You’re next.”
Although she had known this moment would eventually come, Xia Linyin's heart still skipped a beat when Chad pointed at her. She bit her lip and glared at Chad with hatred.
If she could become a vengeful ghost after she dies, she would never let Chad go, even as a ghost!
Chad had seen that cursed look in her eyes countless times. He just smiled coldly, put his hands behind his back, and ordered, "Drag her away, Arthur."
