Chapter 189: Chapter 189
The air within the Orphanage had turned exceedingly murky, with pus oozing from the cracks in the walls and partially peeled walls revealing squirming blood and flesh ensnared by the iron chains.
It even felt like in some of these gaps, Pang Guishan’s sleazy gaze was watching the outside.
having decided to start a battle, the two walking through the corridors stepped lightly, even joyfully,
Yi Chen, having found a portable audio player on one of the security guards, was now using it himself, headphones on, playing “Come And Get Your Love.”
The hand axe in his right hand swung up and down, following the rhythm of the song.
The left thumb rubbed against the surface of the gun, immersing him in a somewhat exhilarated state.
Lorrian, on the other hand, was the exact opposite; he clung to the last moments of his free time, one hand holding a novel, the other stuffed in his pocket, not even bothering to look at the path.
The elevator, previously empty, suddenly contained an elevator attendant in a red dress, her black hair covering her face, her pale hands ceremoniously clasped at her waist.
At the same time, the game’s notification chimed:
“Disaster Mode has been activated. In this mode, the setting will be exaggeratedly presented, and the internal chaos value will reach its maximum.
“The ‘Desperate Gamble’ mechanism is involuntarily engaged, and you cannot leave until you kill the person in charge of this area.
At that point, you will receive a massive amount of points and control over this area, which you can transform into your own paradise.”
The mailman disappeared, waves of intense unease spilling from the elevator.
Lorrian no longer indulged in his novels, but watched the mysterious elevator and its attendant intently. Just as he prepared to step forward and enter, Yi Chen suddenly grabbed his hand.
“Oh? You’re not in a hurry now?”
Yi Chen waved his hand,
“No~Of course, I am in a hurry, every cell in my body is urging me to act quickly.
But before we take the elevator down, there’s something I must make clear to you.
This time we’re facing the highest difficulty in the current game, and even in my memory, Director Cao is a terror existing ‘beyond humanity’.
Both Fang Qiong, with her art talent, and the muscular Pang Guishan are fundamentally afraid of her,
not just due to her position and status, but because Director Cao is a genuine ‘human-shaped demon.’
She controls a major project at Black Mountain Kindergarten and is the chief beneficiary of this project, already a non-human entity. Now, with the highest difficulty of the game accentuating her powers, her transformation into a more frightening entity is inevitable.
Together, our points add up to exactly one hundred, enough to exchange for a qualification to end the game.
If we find ourselves in a deadly trap below and judge that escape is impossible, certainly leading to death, I will transfer all the points to you, and you must immediately leave to return to the Original World.
This gamble is mine to bear, and I alone should suffer the punishment of death.
If my death in the game causes a strong effect, leaving me comatose and unable to fend for myself… Moon Scar, I need you to take me back to the Original World.”
Lorrian didn’t respond directly but stuck out his similarly silver tongue, scarred with a moon mark, and licked around his lips.
“I certainly don’t want your body to be severely damaged by the death penalty, for we are to merge in the future.
We’ll speak of fatal certainties when we truly encounter them, at least for now, I haven’t felt the real pressure of danger…”
He slapped Yi Chen heavily on the back, pushing him into the elevator with one hand.
When the two entered the elevator,
the elevator attendant turned around politely, nodding in greeting.
The thick black hair completely hid her face,
but this didn’t stop Yi Chen from observing, as the eyeballs on his shoulders emerged, concentrating to try to discern the true face beneath the black hair.
Below the black hair was still black hair,
A large hole had been gouged in the attendant’s face, filled with black hair, or rather, harboring a brain structure capable of infinitely growing black hair.
