Chapter 147 Can’t Leave!
Whoosh whoosh~
The wind was howling, the rain was pouring, and a strange, inhuman wailing sounded here...
All the flames on the ground, which had been given some strange new life, were extinguished by the violent storm.
This place suddenly became extremely dark...
The crimson light on the huge meat ball also became dim, and it seemed that it could be swallowed up by the sudden heavy rain at any time.
At this moment, a terrifying pressure suddenly descended on the dome.
A blurry "dark cloud" that vaguely resembled a human face hung down from the top, opened its "big mouth", and swallowed up the huge meat ball made up of the cultists who believed in the "Red Moon Mother" in one gulp.
When everything returned to normal, there was almost nothing left on the ground except for some bite marks.
…
On the other side, everyone didn't know what had just happened. After driving for a distance, they still kept their eyes on what was behind them. It was not until they didn't see that thing for almost ten minutes that they all breathed a sigh of relief.
That thing has such strong vitality, and seems to have mastered some strange and inexplicable tricks. It's better to run away if it can.
After all, it's not a game. Killing them doesn't gain any experience, so there's no need to waste time on it.
On the moving bus, some people skillfully found things like iron sheets and bubble glue to patch up some leaks on the bus to prevent rainwater from pouring in with the wind, or heads from flying out of the rain and fog from time to time into the car space and causing more trouble.
"How long will it take to get to your base? Can you confirm the route this time?"
Dog Brother and others were still wearing bright raincoats and sitting in the back half.
They wanted to take a break, but suddenly Colin's message came to their minds -
"Inquire... confirm whether the route and other information are accurate, and complete the task of investigating 'Rain City' as soon as possible."
"The route is fine. This route was scanned recently and its accuracy can be guaranteed."
Gao Haiwen, who was standing at the door of the car, took out a phone that was two or three times thicker than an ordinary phone and looked at it. Then he said, "If we don't encounter anything else on the way, it will take about an hour to get there. If we encounter other troubles, it will take about two or three hours to walk. It may be late, but don't worry, we will definitely arrive before twelve o'clock tonight."
"Before twelve?"
Dog noticed this key word and remembered some things from before, so he asked, "What will happen after twelve o'clock?"
I think I heard Gao Haiwen say before when I came up that "Yucheng" is now in a "safe time" and there won't be too much danger.
But I never saw him explain what was going on...
" Didn't ? 'Rain City' represents the stomach of some creature. Can you think about the function of a 'stomach'?"
Gao Haiwen pushed the broken black-framed glasses on his square face and continued without waiting for anyone to ask, "At twelve o'clock, 'Rain City' will enter the digestion period. By then, it will rain heavily, and the possibility of corrosion will increase. That kind of 'Flying Brain' will become more difficult to deal with...
“Besides that, there is a certain probability that something weird will happen.
"I can't really say what it is exactly. I remember experiencing it once or twice. Every time I opened my eyes after that experience, I was reborn back in 'Love Paradise', waiting to re-enter 'Rainy City' on Friday, so I don't know much."
"Okay... Oh, by the way, speaking of resurrection, could those cultists who died just now also be resurrected?" Dog Brother asked immediately, thinking of collecting more information so that he could complete the task of investigating "Rain City" faster.
Gao Haiwen gave an affirmative answer to this question.
"This isn't the first time we've run into them. Here, there's only one situation where one won't be resurrected, and that's being taken away by the 'Scarlet One'. In other situations, even if one is completely transformed into a puppet by the 'Narrator', one will be resurrected and start over..."
After a pause, Gao Haiwen added: "The price is that you may lose some of your memory, or something else, and the probability of being targeted by the 'narrator' will increase exponentially."
"Is that so..." Dog Brother and others nodded, and then checked the progress of the task.
47%.
There is still a lot of work to do and I can't rest yet.
After thinking for a while, Mo Yu Xian Ren changed the subject and said, "By the way, there is still an hour to go. Can you tell me what method you have prepared to escape from this place?"
"How to leave here? It's impossible..."
Gao Haiwen subconsciously wanted to say something, but at this moment, lines of "narration" appeared in his sight from top to bottom.
[In a sense, there is really no way to leave here. Once everyone enters, they either become puppets of the "script book", or can only be taken away by "...", or can only enter the "Rain City" and become mindless residue in the repeated "digestion". ]
[However, this situation only applies to those who have used the fragments of the "Book of Numerology" and those who have died in this place. Those who have not used the "Book of Numerology", have not died in the flesh, and belong to the "Bonfire Company" do have the possibility of leaving.]
[You recalled the knowledge you had gained from an accidental investigation, and with a wry smile, you told them that when you said it was impossible to leave, you were referring to yourselves. They still had a chance to leave...]
[And the way to leave is in the base. Once they get there, they will know how to leave...]
[You will do your best to help them leave, and all you need to do is inform the outside world of your information and tell them that your mission has been completed.]
It seemed that only he could see the "narration" on his retina, while no one else could. A barely perceptible struggle seemed to flash in the depths of Gao Haiwen's eyes.
"Wait, what do you mean? Not only is it impossible?" Dog Brother frowned. This was not what they had agreed.
The other party had clearly said before that once they arrived at the base, they would have the opportunity to leave, so why is that not possible all of a sudden?
As he spoke, he secretly prepared himself. He grasped the hilt of the knife with his right hand and reached for another unused prop with his left hand to prevent the other party from turning against him.
"hehe……"
Gao Haiwen smiled bitterly, and the struggle in his eyes disappeared, "That's not the case. I'm talking about how it can't be us anymore, and since you haven't used the 'Book of Numerology' and haven't died, you have a chance to leave.
"As for how to leave, I don't have a good way to tell you right now, so I can only wait until you get to the base...
"Our people will do everything they can to get you out. There is no need for me to lie to you about this..."
Really? I don't believe it...
Colin's colleagues showed no expression on their faces, but they didn't believe it in their hearts.
There is a lot of intrigue within the company, and they generally don't believe in "good things" that will fall from the sky.
But in the current situation, they really need to rely on Gao Haiwen to obtain information faster, so they can't do without him for the time being.
Moreover, with Brother Shunzi in charge, there shouldn’t be any major problems...right?
Several people thought at the same time that they couldn't control it, but that didn't mean Brother Shunzi couldn't control it...
Since Brother Shunzi didn't say there was a problem, there should be no problem.
"rest assured."
Gao Haiwen said sincerely: "All I need is for you to help me pass some information to the outside world..."
