The abandoned broadcast system in the cinema began to emit a mechanical countdown sound.
Cen Yu is now quite certain that the Oasis Cinema has been modified—probably after the mutated zone expanded, the group knew that the Oasis Cinema was a frequent rest stop for hunters and a necessary route to shorten their journey, so they specially installed some facilities here.
To enjoy their panicked expressions.
Hide-and-seek is definitely not a good game for people to gather together.
Once everyone realized they were caught up in another terrible game, almost the entire team left the screening room and began looking for a place to hide.
Soon only Cen Yu, He Yuxing, and a few others remained in the screening room.
Jiang Min glanced at Cen Yu, and finally decided to leave Screening Room 5 first.
Perhaps to help them hide better, the countdown on the loudspeaker lasted a full five minutes... Cen Yu had no idea what there was to hide in the movie theater.
The hallway, the screening room, and the area at the entrance where snacks and movie tickets are sold, plus maybe a restroom and an office for the staff.
The screening room and corridors were almost completely uncovered, something the rest of the team must have expected.
Cen Yu eventually sat down in the last row of the movie theater.
This is a very small screening room, so the entrance is in the last row. There is also an emergency exit, but it looks like that door hasn't been opened for many years, and it's possible that it's still closed.
He Yuxing listened to the continuously shortening time on the radio, "Aren't you going to hide?"
“There aren’t many places to play hide-and-seek in a movie theater,” Cen Yu said. “You can see right under the seats.”
"Unless you go to the toilet or the office, where there might be a cabinet or something else."
To put it bluntly, the people looking down at them from above didn't want to watch hide-and-seek; they wanted to see how pitiful they looked, struggling so much yet still being caught by the monster.
Cen Yu sat on the outermost chair in the last row, while He Yuxing stood in the corridor beside him. The two looked at the damaged curtain in the hall, with a countdown timer constantly decreasing above their heads.
Finally, with only one second left on the countdown.
The entire movie theater fell silent, and then a rustling sound accompanied by a light singing voice appeared in all directions of the theater.
Then he heard some subtle hissing sounds.
Screening Room 5 was located at the back of the cinema. Cen Yu heard countless footsteps, accompanied by light singing—
"Bang!"
The tightly closed door was slammed shut.
“Step back,” Cen Yu said immediately.
He pulled out a prop from his pocket—
The door was smashed down the next second.
A humanoid monster with long arms and legs appeared at the doorway.
Cen Yu took out the [Stupidity Spray] and sprayed it on all the monsters that had appeared.
[Stupidity Spray: After spraying, the target will become stupid within 10 minutes, with confused thinking, flailing arms and legs, and tripping over their own feet. It's vicious but effective.]
Soon, the monsters started dancing and gesturing wildly in Cen Yu's sight. The creatures that originally intended to attack Cen Yu ended up tripping over each other and falling down in Cen Yu's view.
Cen Yu tossed the empty spray can aside.
He pulled out his long sword and slashed them one by one, separating the heads and bodies of the monsters that were writhing on the ground, their limbs out of control.
Cen Yu turned to look at He Yuxing, "What are you standing there for? Come and help."
