Based on previous experience, the "loops" and "secret rooms" of this game are mostly related to NPCs.
There must be an NPC hiding in the darkness before us, causing chaos in secret. However, an NPC with such exaggerated influence must be very powerful, so using blood to lure out the NPC is very reckless, dangerous, and exciting.
"Tick...tick..." Yueya's blood dripped on the stairs, making a crisp sound.
They held their breath and looked around intently, guarding against monsters that might pop up at any time.
The silent darkness was unbearable. Twelve squeezed the juice bottle, his finger bones turning white from exerting too much force. He exhaled and murmured in a low voice, "Why is there no movement? Isn't this a ghost wall?"
"Maybe my blood isn't fragrant enough, how about changing it..."
Before Yue Ya could finish his words, something suddenly emerged from the darkness and swept away the blood on the ground with a "swish" sound.
The sound made their hair stand on end, even Fei Fei got angry.
Yue Ya looked down and saw that the bloodstains on the ground were gone, but there were some mucus and rough scratches instead.
Twelve whispered, "What was that just now?"
Ke Ke said in a deep voice: "It was too fast, I couldn't see clearly, but this mark looks a bit like being licked by something."
Yue Ya recalled the dark red afterimage that flashed before his eyes and said calmly, "Maybe it was a thick tongue covered with barbs."
Twelve: "Whatever it is, it is now certain that there is a 'ghost' here, and your blood smells pretty good. It almost ate the stairs together."
"I'll be generous and feed it some more blood." Yue Ya shook his hand, and drops of blood fell down.
At this moment, a gust of cold wind blew from behind, lifting their hair and clothes, and also bringing the smell of blood to a farther place.
"The wind is blowing, and it's stirring." Twelve squeezed the juice bottle in his hand hard, and it made a crackling sound.
"Gudong." A clear swallowing sound was heard behind Yue Ya.
A chill rose from his spine, making the back of his head numb. He turned around quickly - a fat tongue swung out from the darkness, coming at him with great force, and it seemed that it wanted to directly swallow his head!
"Get out of the way!" When Yue Ya and Fei Fei flashed to the upper level of stairs, Ke Ke also used spider silk to bring herself and Twelve to the upper level.
The tongue licked nothing, and the barbs left several grooves on the stairs.
The tongue retracted into the darkness, and with two "pah" sounds, several sharp wooden spikes flew out from the darkness and shot towards the three people.
Yue Ya used a vine to hit the wooden thorn back. A sharp "ying ying" sound came out in the darkness, and several thick tongues flew out at the same time, breaking the entire staircase! Several chairs fell into the abyss along with the wooden debris and disappeared in an instant.
This break meant that their way back was blocked, and their fate if they went back would be the same as those chairs.
"I'm hungry." A sharp voice sounded in the darkness.
"I'm hungry. I'm hungry. I'm hungry." The voice kept repeating.
Yueya said, "Then come out."
"I'm hungry." A huge pale human face emerged from the darkness, two pupil-less eyes staring straight at them.
The distance was too close, and the visual impact made their hearts beat faster.
Twelve felt his mind go blank for a moment, with only one thought remaining in his mind: "Wow...what a big head."
Yueya nodded: "It's enough for my cat to have a meal."
Ke Ke: “?”
[What a big head!]
[Fei Fei: What a coincidence, I’m hungry too]
[Fei Fei: This ghost has a very strong yin energy, and it looks delicious at first glance]
"I'm hungry. I'm hungry." The giant ghost seemed to only be able to say this sentence. Its eyes rolled around and it looked at the three people one by one, as if considering who to eat first.
As it watched, saliva began to flow from the corners of its mouth.
"Slurp." The giant ghost approached the stairs again, and its sharp fingers turned into claws and grabbed Yue Ya.
"It looks like it plans to eat you first," Twelve took out the ghost-catching notebook and asked Yue Ya, "If you want to feed the cat, should I not interfere?"
"Yes." Yue Ya used vines to tie up the giant ghost's palms and tied it to the stairs: "After getting rid of this ghost, the exit should appear."
The giant ghost did not struggle. He suddenly stared at Yue Ya and said quietly, "No."
Twelve looked at it curiously: "So you can say other words, I thought you could only say you were hungry."
The giant ghost said to himself: "I am not the only one here, you can't get out."
"What's the meaning……"
The giant ghost raised its head, revealing a strange smile on its swollen face. Then, a pair of scarlet eyes suddenly appeared behind it.
"There's another ghost?"
No one answered. Behind the giant ghost, there appeared another pair of red eyes, then two, three, four pairs... The evil ghosts hiding in the darkness appeared one by one. They had different appearances and their eyes were greedy, as if they were treating them as meals.
Twelve's scalp tingled, and he only had one thought left: "Wow... so many ghosts."
Yueya nodded: "There are so many ghosts, we can ask the other kids to come out and eat them together."
Ke Ke: “?”
Yue Ya summoned all of his cubs at once. The first echelon, which was the most gluttonous, included the white doves, the little puppet Pang Pang, and Feng Feng who possessed the art of disappearing souls. The second echelon included the little lion, the newly recruited NPC from the photo studio, and the fake red-clothed ghost king. The third echelon included Yue Ya's increasingly intelligent puppets and those corpse dolls.
The cubs packed the stairs full and looked at the evil spirits outside the stairs with greed, as if they were looking at a dish of food.
The evil spirits outside the stairs shuddered and stepped back.
Twelve and Keke were stunned, with a thousand mythical beasts running through their minds.
"Wow, so many pups..." Twelve hastily changed the subject: "So many NPCs. I've seen Yueya take NPCs away before, but I didn't expect that he would have so... many NPCs around him."
Ke Ke: "Is this some kind of firefight? I don't understand the food chain here anymore."
Twelve pointed at Yue Ya: "I understand, he is the top of the food chain."
Yue/Top of the food chain/Ya showed an innocent smile and said to the cubs, "Let's eat."
Feifei licked his paws, then couldn't wait to pounce on the giant ghost's head and took a bite.
The giant ghost screamed: "Where do you think this place is? Even if you eat us, you can't get out!"
Yue Ya tilted his head and said, "Tell me, where is this place?"
"This is a 'garbage dump', with a lot of things that need to be dealt with or can't be dealt with," the giant ghost said sadly, "Have you not discovered that the more noise you make, the more things will wake up. In the end, you will either be eaten by more powerful creatures, or blend into the darkness and gradually fall asleep, just like us who were abandoned before."
"So that's how it is," Yue Ya looked into its eyes and smiled, "So you explained so much to me just to buy time and wait for a stronger guy to wake up so he can save you, right?"
The giant ghost was exposed by him and roared in frustration: "I didn't!"
Yueya: "You are shouting so loudly to make more noise, right?"
“……”You guessed it again.
Although the giant ghost's approach is somewhat obvious, the effect is significant.
Several pairs of bloodshot eyes emerged from the darkness ahead, as if some powerful guys had been woken up again.
In this endless darkness, how many monsters have not yet awakened... If they continue to stay here, will they become one of them?
Ke Ke looked at those vicious eyes, and her heart grew colder. "We cleared the game, but were thrown into the game's trash can. The Lord God didn't intend to let us clear the game at all. He just wanted to get rid of us."
"No wonder this place doesn't look like a dungeon at all," Twelve looked at the lucky bracelet on his hand and sneered, "Even if I use this bracelet, I won't be able to find the exit, because there is no exit here at all."
[There is such a place in this game? You can really see everything by following the host]
[The Lord brought Yuezai here, didn't he want him to help you deal with the garbage?]
[Is it true that I can’t get out? Let’s try using a lucky bracelet first. Maybe it will work.]
[It’s so hopeless, I’m going to lose my mind just by staying in this place]
[There is one thing I don’t quite understand. The evil ghost said there are some things here that can’t be processed. Why can’t they be processed? Aren’t all the things in the game just a string of data? Can’t we just delete them? Have they mutated?]
