Chapter 230 The Scheming Little Chou
"What is it doing?" Chu Xichi asked loudly.
Chu Xihen and Bai Jinli quickly returned to the team. They stood together and looked warily at the ugly little feet that kept falling in the distance.
"It looks like running?" Xiao Yan answered Chu Xixi's question.
Lou Su watched for a moment, and his expression suddenly changed, "It's killing people. It's trampling people all over the world to death!"
It's just that they could see Xiao Chou's feet falling from the sky, but they couldn't stop it because the distance was too far, even Ling Yaofei couldn't fly over.
Xiao Chou would circle around where they were and trample people from other areas to death.
"But it's only morning now. The copy won't open until midnight. How come it started attacking humans in advance? And its legs are out. Does that mean it can completely escape from that time gap and come out to kill us?" Gao Lin said in a serious tone.
"While we are making preparations, it naturally has to make preparations as well. Seeing it so anxious to kill people means that our speculation is correct. It just wants to fight us to the death when the copy opens tonight." Chu Xihen looked up at the sky, watching Xiao Chou stomping down one step at a time, and felt very uncomfortable.
Even from such a distance, they could clearly feel the ground shaking. Those who were under the little ugly man's feet would not be able to survive.
Xiao Chou's simple and direct way of killing also denied Chu Xihen's other guess.
They said before that Xiao Chou couldn't kill people directly, but now it seems that is not true.
It can kill people directly, but it didn't do so before, either because it was not despair enough, and most of its body was trapped in the stone egg, so it didn't have the conditions to kill. Or it was despairing and had the conditions to kill, but it didn't. It had only been using a small part of its despair, making people think that its despair was not enough, but in fact it had been holding on to most of its despair.
"Only one of its legs is free now. The other leg is probably still stuck in the stone egg. It's in such a hurry to kill. I guess it's just one step away from success." Chu Xihen analyzed with a bad look on his face.
Xiao Chou has been enduring during this period of time just to be able to completely walk out of the time rift tonight!
The little clown, who originally had power but was stupid, started to play tricks, which made everyone present feel a chill down their spine.
At this time, Lingyao came back with Xie Ling.
"What's the situation?" Chu Xihen asked.
Xie Ling sighed softly. Originally everyone was calm, and he came to encourage them. They felt that they could hold on until the dungeon was opened. But Xiao Chou suddenly started to use their real world to wash his feet. Now, except for each team leader and some people who were mentally strong, the situation was very bleak.
Fortunately, Xiao Chou's speed was gradually decreasing, and he stopped completely after two hours.
"What's wrong? Are you tired?" Ling Yao said.
Xie Ling started to calculate when Xiao Chou took his first step. A very clear picture appeared in his mind. The direction where Xiao Chou stepped was slowly shrinking towards their position.
"It's not that it's tired, but it can no longer see any living people. If it lands any further, it might be attacked by our supernatural powers. It's not completely free yet, so it probably doesn't want to confront us head-on." Xie Ling said.
"It's so strong. It can completely cover our area with one step. What does it have to worry about?" Chu Xixi's face was full of confusion.
Xie Ling looked at Chu Xihen and said, "It might be Mr. Chu that it is concerned about."
But Chu Xihen knew that Xiao Chou still cared about Lou Su and Bai Jinli.
It can kill people at will now, but it cannot pull the two people into the time gap, so it is not easy to attack here.
"Brother Lou, doesn't he have [Time Freeze] that allows him to enter the time gap? Can we sneak in and take a look to understand Xiao Chou's current situation?" Gao Lin asked Lou Su.
As the saying goes, know yourself and know your enemy. They will be fighting Xiao Chou tonight, so they should at least know how strong it is now, right?
Sometimes the fear brought by ignorance can drive a person crazy.
Chu Xihen and Xie Ling objected, "No."
Gao Lin and the others looked at them in confusion.
Xie Ling said: "Now we know that Xiao Chou could attack us at any time. Because it is afraid of Mr. Chu, it has not attacked us yet. But if Mr. Lou uses his skills to stop time, we will be unable to resist. It will only take one second for Xiao Chou to kill us all."
Lou Su also agrees with Xie Ling's concern.
When he saw Xiao Chou killing someone just now, he also wanted to go to the time gap to stop it, but when he used his skills, the real world would pause.
"Chu Xihen, don't you have that stone? I remember last time in the laboratory, after you used the stone bubble to cover the building, his use of [Time Freeze] had no effect on us." Bai Jinli said.
"If I cover him with a stone bubble, he will enter the time gap with the stone, and then my stone will be sucked away by the ugly black stone. It is only this big and can't get any smaller." Chu Xichen took out the stone. It was the size of a ping-pong ball and looked really pitiful.
This method didn't work, and Bai Jinli was at a loss, so he shut up and stopped talking.
However, Lou Su discovered a message in his words, "When I use [Time Freeze] in reality, I will be blocked by this stone, but when I go to Xiao Chou's time gap, it won't happen. Why is this so?"
Chu Xihen shook his head, he couldn't figure it out either.
Then Lou Su took Chu Xihen to do another experiment. After he was covered by the stone bubble, he used [Time Rewind]. He only used the first stage, which was to rewind events instead of time. But the result was the same as [Time Freeze]. In reality, his skills would be blocked by bubbles.
Chu Xixi watched them struggle and finally asked, "Will this help us in our final battle with Xiao Chou?"
Lou Su's answer was, "It really doesn't help, so we just give it a try."
After Xiao Chou no longer appeared, everyone's emotions gradually stabilized. As the sky gradually darkened, everyone felt hungry, so Ling Yao went out to find something to eat. It was then that everyone realized that they didn't seem to have encountered any alien species since leaving the Superpower Bureau, and the snow monster that had been rampant a few days ago was also gone.
Lingyao was gone for a long time before he finally caught two mutant pheasants. They made a fire and roasted them, but each of them ate a few bites and couldn't eat any more.
Come to think of it, they had not suffered any grievances in terms of food after the apocalypse, because of the dungeon mall. In addition, they had been well fed and well housed in the Superpower Bureau during this period. Now it was really hard for them to swallow the very tough mutant animal meat.
"It will soon be twelve o'clock. No matter how good the meal is, you may not see the sun tomorrow. Why bother? Just deal with it casually." Chu Xixi said.
Chu Xihen rubbed her head and said, "Don't say such sad words. It's still uncertain who will win or lose!"
"That's right, everyone cheer up. The more determined we are to win, the greater our chances of winning. Xiao Chou is the embodiment of despair. As long as we are not despairing, it will be powerless." Xie Ling also encouraged everyone.
He is really suitable for giving everyone spiritual chicken soup.
Upon hearing this, Chu Xihen suggested that Ling Yao take him to cheer up the others.
"That's exactly what I was thinking. After Xiao Chou shows up, I may need Ling Yao to carry me in the air to command the battle. This won't affect your team's battle arrangements, right?" Xie Ling asked Chu Xihen.
"It has no impact. Lingyao, your duty tonight is to protect Dr. Xie." Chu Xihen said to Lingyao.
"Okay, Brother Chu!" Ling Yao shouted and took on this difficult task.
