[Martial Arts] Infinite Chamber Game

Chapter 57 Darkness and Zombies 4

Lin Xian'er sat on the steps at the entrance of the palace, straightening her neck to swallow the biscuit in her mouth. She almost choked and rolled her eyes. Lei Chun patted her on the back: "Eat slowly and drink some water."

"So, they took our bodies directly to the shelter? They didn't even mind the trouble?" Lin Xian'er pounded her chest hard and finally swallowed the last bite of biscuit. She gulped down a big mouthful of water and immediately stuffed another big bite of biscuit into her mouth.

On the other side of the live broadcast, Linghu Chong was lying on a hospital bed, his head and hands wrapped in bandages with blood seeping out of the bandages. It was obvious that he was seriously injured, but he looked in good spirits and his smile was still as carefree as ever.

"So they found a place that looked clean and safe and put you and Ximen Chuixue down. They planned to kill the monsters first and then bring you out."

Lin Xian'er wiped her mouth and smiled: "Thank you very much."

She was the best at smiling, and was very good at finding the angle that made her look the most beautiful. This had become her instinct. Just like at this moment, with the sun shining down from above her head, she turned slightly to the side and lowered her head. A layer of holy and warm halo appeared on her cold jade-like skin, and she was as beautiful as a goddess descending to the earth.

Linghu Chong blushed, and glanced away unnaturally: "I suddenly remembered that I have something else to do..." He just said half of the sentence when he remembered that he was seriously injured and could not do anything. He had to pretend to be relaxed and smiled. Lin Xian'er also smiled knowingly and said softly: "Then I won't disturb Young Master Linghu to rest. I hope you will recover soon and don't be too tired."

"Easy to say, easy to say."

The connection was disconnected, and Lin Xian'er's gentle smile suddenly became flamboyant. She took a big bite of the biscuit. Although she tried her best to purse her lips and not get too carried away, her shoulders shrugged and she finally couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Of course I was choked.

Lei Chun sighed: "I really can't figure it out."

"Oh?"

Lei Chun said: "What are you laughing at?"

Lin Xian'er was a little surprised: "You can't figure it out?"

She stood up, looked at the beautiful palace, and said with a smile: "My two teammates claimed to be smart and powerful in martial arts, but now they are looking for their own bodies everywhere like headless flies. Isn't it funny?"

"They seem to have forgotten that the clearance process is being broadcast live. Although we can't see what our teammates are doing, there are always people who can see it. If we just ask anyone who is watching, won't we know everything? Isn't it funny that they can't even think of this?" Lin Xian'er smiled more proudly: "Sometimes even I can't help but admire myself for coming up with such a brilliant idea."

Lei Chun laughed dryly twice.

As she was talking, Lei Chun suddenly received a call request. As soon as she answered, Shi Potian's face hadn't popped up yet, but his anxious voice came out first: "Call them back quickly! Something big happened over at Wen Xue'an's place!"

……

Behind the portal, Warlock Canyon.

The yellow sand spreads and the valley is deep and dark.

Thousands of thumb-sized mosquitoes formed a black wind that swooped down, blocking out the sky and the sun.

Mosquitoes only look scary but are not threatening. They just always fly around people, making buzzing sounds as they flap their wings. I don’t know if it’s a psychological effect, but after being entangled by them, I always feel inexplicably anxious and short of breath.

The real threat is the bugs blocking the only entrance to the canyon.

They look a lot like cockroaches, with faces on six legs. Their pitch-black shells shine brightly in the sun. They are bigger than horses, with antennae alone being seven or eight feet long. Their fangs grow outside their mouths, and a slight scratch on the ground can create a trench.

There are six such monsters.

Ye Gucheng just escaped from here.

He once used a picked-up bow and arrow to shoot these mutated cockroaches, but although the cockroaches moved slowly, they were incredibly strong. A gust of wind raised by the waving of their antennae blew up the arrows, which were blown away like willow branches and fell to the ground.

"I died in front." Shi Guanyin dodged the insects' attacks while looking at Ximen Chuixue and said slowly, "I died because of you."

Ximen Chuxue said nothing. He had lost his nimbleness and was surrounded by two insects, one in front and one behind. His dodging steps were hurried and he looked quite embarrassed. He was so ashamed that he wished he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

Shi Guanyin panted and said, "I think Shangguan Jinhong and the others are also in front. If I'm not mistaken, your bodies were most likely taken away by them."

It's hard to infer what the purpose is. It's unlikely that they're helping to collect corpses out of kindness, but it's more likely that they're making full use of it. For example, if you encounter a monster that throws fireballs or lightning, you can hold it up and use it as a human shield. If you're surrounded by monsters, you can throw it out to lure them away. Or if you're tired, you can use it as a butt cushion when you rest. It's soft and comfortable... In short, it has many uses.

Thinking of such a horrible scene, Ye Gucheng's face suddenly darkened. In order to retrieve the body as soon as possible, it was not unacceptable to use his skills as planned.

Veins were popping out of his forehead, he gritted his teeth, as if making up his mind, and sang: "She~"

He had just sung one syllable when Ximen Chuixue shouted at him, "Sing something else!"

It's not his fault that he reacted so violently. It was really this song that caused Ximen Chuxue a serious psychological trauma! Even if he couldn't dance, he could at least dance in a masculine way, right?

Ye Gucheng's mental preparation, which he had worked so hard to prepare, was interrupted just like that. He glared at Ximen Chuxue angrily and was about to say some harsh words, but unexpectedly the big cockroach in front of him swung its tail, forcing him to roll several times. As he watched the sickle-like claws about to chop down on him, in a flash, the song that had flooded into his mind on countless nights and kept him awake appeared again.

He sang it out.

"I just can't fly out of this colorful world. It turns out I am just a drunken butterfly."

The control range of the peerless singer is not large, but the objects of control include all living things in the world.

The cockroach, which was so aggressive and murderous just now, paused and stood up in human form! Its antennae stood upright on its head like two antennae, and its two front claws were waving in the air, jumping around.

The key is that the cockroach's hind legs are too short to support its huge body to twist and turn. Before it could do this, it fell over, its six legs kicking and kicking in the air, but it couldn't turn over. The aftereffect of this song is no less than that of "Itchy". Ye Gucheng knocked over six big cockroaches after singing only two sentences. Of course, they themselves were not having a good time. Their dancing posture was really like a drunk butterfly, with their bodies uncontrollably banging and crashing straight into the cliff.

Without any interference from other things, once this crappy skill starts, you can't stop it even if you want to!
……

When Chu Liuxiang said that they wanted to separate, everyone understood what he meant.

Zombies have no thoughts, they only know how to chase the smell of blood and the living. The door to the rooftop is very strong, and before coming up, they also sealed the stairs to the thirteenth floor. As long as the smell of blood leaves and they are quiet, the zombies will never fight with an iron door.

Several people looked at each other and no one spoke.

Not saying anything means neither agreeing nor disagreeing.

Lin Shiyin has always been quiet. Since entering the game, she has hardly said anything because she has never had her own opinions. She usually waits for others to arrange what to do and what she can do.

Of course, she also knew that her current situation made her a burden to the team. Not only did she burden her teammates, but she also burdened the strangers in front of her. Chu Liuxiang's words undoubtedly pushed this burden to a dead end. She still didn't say anything, like an obedient and beautiful big puppet, quiet and calm.

But she is a human being after all, not a real puppet.

Lin Shiyin took a last look at the child, the child she had given birth to after risking her life, the child she and Long Xiaoyun had. Once upon a time, this child was her only support in this world. Now, this child had become her last concern in this world.

The child was sleeping soundly in Guan Minghui's arms.

Seeing Lin Shiyin looking at her, Guan Minghui hurried over, walked to her side, squatted down, and said hesitantly: "Sister Lin, you haven't named the child yet."

Lin Shiyin bit her lip, as if she wanted to touch the child, but was afraid of waking him up. She only lightly rubbed the child's cheek with her fingers, her eyes full of reluctance and love.

She turned her head, two lines of tears already shed.

"I've already thought of a name for him. It's called..."

"Wait a minute." Chu Liuxiang interrupted her and smiled, "How can you be so hasty about such an important matter as naming? At least we should wait until we are in a safe place, and you can lie comfortably in bed, and it's best to have another sleep and rest, so that you can give the child a nice name."

Chu Liuxiang's voice was very soft and gentle, as if it had some kind of strange magic. It seemed that as long as he was there, there was nothing to worry about and nothing to be afraid of.

Lin Shiyin looked at him, tears welling up in her eyes again, about to fall, her voice a little vague: "Will there be another chance like that?"

Chu Liuxiang squatted beside her and suddenly held her hand: "Do you believe me?"

Lin Shiyin seemed to be stunned for a while, then she held his hand and said, "I believe you."

She had no choice but to believe.

Chu Liuxiang patted her hands soothingly, then took a deep breath, put one arm around her shoulders, lifted her knees with the other, and actually picked her up!
Everyone's eyes widened at the sight, and even Lin Shiyin let out a brief exclamation.

"Brother Chu! You..." Guan Minghui rushed forward worriedly: "Your wound! If you do this, the wound will split open!"

Chu Liuxiang swayed and staggered, but still stood firm.

"I'm fine." He held Lin Shiyin and walked towards the closed door: "Please, help me open it."

"Don't!" Shen Bijun blocked the door, her face turning pale and blue, sweat oozing out of her forehead: "Where are you going? The three of us are together, you put her down, I'll hold her."

Chu Liuxiang said: "No, you have to stay. If zombies come in, you will be the only one who can fight here."

"But..." Shen Bijun stamped her feet and said anxiously, "How can I watch you two take such a big risk!"

The two brothers of the Dong family said in unison: "We are here. How can we, grown men, need the protection of a little girl?! Xiao Shen, just go with Brother Chu."

Guan Minghui rolled her eyes at them and shouted, "Shut up!" She pulled Shen Bijun's clothes and said, "Sister Jun, I think Brother Chu must have his own plans for doing this. You should stay! Even if others don't say anything, this child can't live without you!"

Chu Liuxiang said, "Listen to me, Miss Shen. You stay and provide support. I have my own way to lure the zombies away. It will be troublesome if you follow me. Open the door. If we linger here for a while longer, we will be in real danger."

Shen Bijun's eyes gradually flashed with light. She turned her head, closed her eyes, stepped aside, and opened the door.

Chu Liuxiang carried Lin Shiyin and walked out.

The door closed behind them with a bang and locked tightly.

Chu Liuxiang carried Lin Shiyin from the thirteenth floor to the twelfth floor, walking very fast. But when he walked from the twelfth floor to the eleventh floor, he walked very slowly, as if he was deliberately waiting for the zombies to find him. At this time, several zombies had already climbed to the tenth floor.

Chu Liuxiang was still walking down.

The faint smell of blood had caused a commotion among the zombies. Lin Shiyin leaned in his arms, trembling slightly. Later she closed her eyes, not daring to look anymore.

Finally, with a horrifying roar of beasts, the group of zombies lurking downstairs completely rioted and swarmed towards them!
Chu Liuxiang was still walking down. He reached the elevator entrance on the tenth floor and pressed the elevator button.

The elevator door slowly opened, and at this time, dozens of zombies had appeared behind Chu Liuxiang, grabbing at him with their hands!
