The werewolf, clutching the heart, eagerly returned to the tree hollow. Finding it empty and catching a faint, familiar human scent, he crushed the heart in his hand, his roar echoing through the heavens, "My wife!!!"
In the darkness, the minibus's blurry outline resembled a giant beast lying on the ground.
"Be careful, there might be something hidden inside," Xia Linyin whispered in Li Luo's ear. In the movie, a character was driving away when a zombie that had somehow appeared in the car stabbed him in the throat with a scythe.
Li Luo put Xia Linyin down, and his gleaming, sharp long knife appeared in his hand. Instead of carefully opening the door and going in, Li Luo kicked the car door open.
With a loud "clang," a long scythe slashed down from above.
Sure enough, the monstrous zombie wielding a long scythe was hidden inside.
If Xia Linyin and Li Luo had rushed in rashly, one of them would have been pierced through the top of their head by the scythe. But now, the zombie's scythe and Li Luo's longsword collided heavily, creating a series of intense sparks.
Li Luo's sword strikes were incredibly fast. His crescent blade slashed across the zombie's body several times before the zombie's scythe even made its second swipe through the air.
But when its scythe was halfway through its swing, its body, which had been sliced by the falling blade, began to separate, and a pile of fragments fell off with a crackling sound.
Xia Linyin kicked all the still-moving fragments out of the minibus.
Li Luo sat in the driver's seat, the car key still in the ignition. Just as he was about to turn the key and start the car, Xia Linyin suddenly asked him, "Can we wait a bit? If not, let's go."
She simply put herself in the player's shoes. If she had finally reached the location where the minibus was parked after a lot of hardship, only to find that the minibus had been driven away, leaving only two tire tracks, she would have been extremely devastated and desperate, wishing she could curse the player who drove the minibus and their ancestors for eighteen generations.
Of course, she wouldn't say that she would risk Li Luo's life and her own just to wait for someone else. She had thought it through. Li Luo's speed was very fast, exceeding the normal level of players. Under such circumstances, neither players nor monsters could reach the minibus so quickly.
After glancing in the direction of the depths of the forest, Li Luo said, "Five minutes, five minutes at most."
"Okay." Xia Linyin nodded. The rest was up to the other players. She and Li Luo had done their best.
Time ticked by, and Xia Linyin nervously clasped her hands together, her palms sweating, her heart filled with torment.
She was afraid that the monsters would arrive at the minibus first, and if she and Li Luo couldn't leave, she would regret her decision. At other times, she worried that if she asked Li Luo to drive, players would arrive shortly after they left, and she would feel guilty.
Then she thought she should learn to adapt to this game. It's a horror game where you only have one life. Her current thoughts are dangerous. Perhaps only those who are ruthless to themselves and even more ruthless to others can survive in this game.
But would she still be herself after that?
About three minutes later, though those three minutes felt like an eternity to Xia Linyin, a burly man in a black vest ran toward the minibus.
The man's square face, which should have given him an honest and kind appearance, was given a fierce look by a centipede-like scar that ran across his brow bone.
The scarred man held an AK47 in his right hand, his left hand was severed. When he ran to the car door, the door suddenly opened, and he immediately pointed the gun at the inside of the car, his muscles tensing up in an instant.
"We're on the same side!" Xia Linyin shouted from inside the car.
A look of surprise flashed across the scarred man's face. He was clearly surprised that someone had arrived at the minibus before him and hadn't even driven it away yet.
Normally, people don't start the car immediately after getting in, driving away without daring to stop for a moment.
A bad thought flashed through his mind, and the scarred man stepped onto the minibus, asking, "Can't this bus drive?"
"Yes!" Xia Linyin replied. Li Luo had already started the minibus, and the headlights shone two beams of light, illuminating the rugged road ahead.
Through the light from the taillights, Xia Linyin saw a thick, giant python swimming towards the minibus, followed by a scarecrow and a robot.
"Go!" the scarred man roared, opening the car window and firing a burst of bullets at the monster chasing after them.
Without the scarred man's reminder, Li Luo revved the engine, and the minibus shot off like a tiger breaking free of its chains.
He glanced at the scene behind the car through the rearview mirror, his handsome face expressionless, but he drove the minibus at its fastest speed.
"Have you seen a woman in red?" Xia Linyin thought for a moment and decided to ask about Bai Xue'er's situation. Although she knew that the other party was probably in grave danger and often dragged her down with her when she was courting death, the two still had some revolutionary friendship.
It turned out the two hadn't driven off immediately because they were waiting for their companion. A knowing glint flashed in the scarred man's eyes as he shook his head. "No! Anyone who hasn't gotten in a car by now is basically dead!"
Several monsters have already caught up with us here. Those players still in the forest must have already become corpses or food for the monsters.
Li Luo drove very fast and was very skilled. In order to shake off the monsters that were chasing him, he drove the minibus like a race car.
Xia Linyin gripped the handle tightly; she was certain that if she loosened her grip even for a second, she would be thrown out of the car.
My whole body was being jolted and swayed by the minibus.
The mountain road is winding and steep, with a sheer cliff on one side and a bottomless abyss on the other.
Li Luo turned the steering wheel, and after a sharp turn, the rear of the car drifted on the ground, making a screeching sound, and narrowly missed the edge of the mountain road.
Xia Linyin stared at the bottomless abyss outside the window, feeling as if she had just been pushed to the edge of a cliff and then immediately pulled back.
The scarred man stiffened slightly, cursing inwardly, "Damn it, this kid drives like he's crazy!"
However, the effect was obvious; the minibus had already left several monsters far behind.
A loud thud suddenly came from the roof of the car, as if something heavy had fallen on it.
With a tearing sound, the roof of the carriage was violently ripped open by external force, and a pair of sharp claws reached in.
"My wife—" The werewolf's eyes, filled with rage and violence, were fixed on Xia Linyin.
