Long Duo's expression changed drastically. He never expected that a young girl, after experiencing so many setbacks and dangers in such a short time, could still calmly focus on finding an exit, thus ruining his plan.
Now that we have no leverage, we are bound to be on the defensive!
He figured he had to try to fool these four people no matter what, since there were many of them and it would be better for anyone to explore than for him to risk it alone.
Unfortunately, before Long Duo could speak again, the cute little brown bear doll suddenly grew larger and swung him into the air with a fierce slap, which then pierced through the screen.
The screen was torn open like a black sheet of paper, revealing a pitch-black interior, accompanied by Long Duo's long, mournful screams that echoed continuously.
The call was long and drawn out without any sudden changes in tone, indicating that it was at least relatively safe inside. Even if there were any unknown dangers, retreating inside had become the only option left to avoid the situation.
Since even the seats were starting to sag, the teddy bear quickly shrunk in size to make room for the two of them. Du Lushui promptly tossed a card to the two below, who were barely sitting with one foot on each other, and reminded them, "Brother, jump!"
Du Lanshan knew exactly what cards his younger brother had. He scooped Cheng Shuang, who was holding a teddy bear, up from behind. At the same time, the card fell and transformed into a small round mound that hovered fifty centimeters above the ground, with a one-meter gap between the mound and the first row of seats.
The round stool has a limited area; it's just right for one person, but too much for two.
Du Lanshan jumped over with all his might, his big feet covering the entire impact surface. He was also holding Cheng Shuang, so his center of gravity was not easy to maintain.
He steadied himself, calmed his breath, and then looked at the newly appeared round mound in front of him...
All Cheng Shuang could do was remain motionless, controlling her body and pretending to be a dummy. But when her gaze fell on the large screen they thought hadn't been invaded by the two-dimensional space, her pupils suddenly contracted.
The dark screen was starting to pixelate from the edges. Because its overall color was indistinct, none of the other three noticed it for a moment.
Even if they discovered it, they dared not speak up to warn Du Lanshan, because if he lost his composure, both he and Cheng Shuang would lose their lives here.
Moreover, when those plastic figures saw the round block appear out of nowhere, they went crazy and desperately tried to jump over and knock Du Lanshan and Cheng Shuang aside, hoping to find a chance to escape.
The Zombie Monster and Dragon Flame in the air could not tolerate such a thing happening, so they set fires and fanned the wind, working together to force the plastic man back.
If they encounter someone who has already been assimilated by the mosaic and still tries to drag them down with them, they will show no mercy whatsoever.
Liu Juan and Du Lushui tried to curl themselves up as much as possible to avoid the plastic figures grabbing their feet and hindering the already heavy-loaded monster and dragon, thus affecting their performance.
The scene was somewhat chaotic until there was nowhere else to stand, and all the plastic figures turned into mosaics, at which point they finally escaped. Meanwhile, Du Lanshan and Cheng Shuang also encountered an accident.
He jumped one big leap after another, and the blocks behind him would automatically disappear when Du Lanshan jumped to the blocks in front of him. He never raised his head from beginning to end, concentrating on his work and not giving himself any chance to be distracted.
Anyone who has played Jump Jump probably knows that the further you go, the farther the distance between you becomes, and occasionally a round block that moves horizontally or vertically will appear, making it difficult to control the distance between you and the other player, thus increasing the difficulty of the game.
Obviously, the 'Jump Jump' card also has this unfortunate characteristic: the last step keeps swinging left and right.
Fortunately, Du Lanshan had a strong mentality. He took a deep breath and said to Cheng Shuang, "Open your eyes wide!"
The little girl's eyes widened instantly as she stared intently at the dynamically moving round pier in front of her, her mind quickly analyzing the worst possible outcome and how to handle failure.
At this distance, Luo An could teleport her, but with Du Lanshan involved, it would be somewhat impossible.
Luo An's skills are not yet capable of group teleportation.
If they really fail, the only option is for the bear cub to instantly stretch its body and act as a bridge pillar. Once they are safe, they can use the skill's special ability to summon it back.
However, even the little bear could hardly predict the round mound's movement; there were too many uncertainties.
Moreover, Cheng Shuang didn't want to interrupt Uncle Du, who was already on edge. The mosaic on the big screen was about to surround the dark hole, leaving them no time to discuss and change other escape plans.
Uncle Du's mental energy is highly concentrated right now. If he were to use the bear cubs as a bridge pillar and fail, he would probably never be able to return to his current peak condition.
The girl gritted her teeth and thought to herself, "I'll give it my all. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. I have to trust Uncle Du!"
Those peach blossom eyes, so obedient, were almost bloodshot from glaring.
She knew why Uncle Du had told her to open her eyes wide; if he missed a step, he might very well throw her out before she even hit the ground...
Moving to the left-hand block and slowly returning to its original position facing forward, Du Lanshan's brow was beaded with sweat. He steadied himself and softly counted, "One, two..."
Liu Juan and Du Lushui had more sweat on their foreheads than the two people involved. Their eyes were fixed on the ground below, and they even unconsciously read the number out loud, "Three!"
"Jump!"
With a large stride, Du Lanshan almost lost his balance as he landed on the round mound in front of him.
He succeeded!
Before we could even celebrate, the edges of the black hole on the screen gradually became grainy, and even showed a tendency to extend inward.
The most difficult round mound to cross happened to be the closest to the screen. Du Lanshan wiped away the sweat from his sore eyes and, without hesitation, led Cheng Shuang into the broken hole.
Sangsangguai and Long Zhiyan also threw Liu Juan and Du Lushui in, and followed closely behind.
After sliding down a dark staircase, the group landed in soft seats. When they opened their eyes, they found themselves back in the movie theater, with the end credits song of "Crazy Forest" playing on the screen.
The surrounding decorations were all normal, and the subwoofer was playing music with a booming sound, accompanied by cartoon clips, creating a warm and fun atmosphere.
If it weren't for the fact that only Long Duo was left in the back row, trembling and hugging his legs, and even the seats for the plastic figures were empty, they might have mistaken everything that had happened before for a terrifying nightmare.
As the final song ended and the lights came back on, the door to the screening room creaked open, and two plastic staff members walked in. "If you need to use the restroom, you have ten minutes. Please be quick. To avoid disturbing other viewers, the door will be locked after the third film's theme song!"
Cheng Shuang wanted to leave, but she definitely didn't want to leave halfway. If the door were locked, who knows what other unexpected dangers the person locked outside might encounter.
Not only did she have this consideration, but even Long Duo, who was already alone, dared not take the risk alone.
But he really didn't want to stay. Who wanted to be with someone who was being used as cannon fodder? The two sides were already at odds, and he didn't think the other side would be so magnanimous as to let him go.
