Sequence Beyond: My Wife is a Mysterious Boss

"Open the door!"

Xie Qingtang had no time for pleasantries; she roared in a hoarse voice.

The two men dared not delay and immediately turned around and worked together to pull open the heavy metal door.

Lin Bai led the group in.

The interior was bleak; it was probably a storage room.

Three seriously wounded men lay in the corner, some missing legs, others with their stomachs ripped open. They were biting on wooden sticks and groaning in pain, the air thick with the smell of blood and sweat.

"Quick! Close the door!"

As soon as Xie Qingtang entered the room, he leaned against the wall as if his bones had been removed, but he kept giving orders.

The two men guarding the gate were so skilled that it was heartbreaking.

boom!

The door slammed shut.

Immediately afterwards, the two used the shelves, tables and chairs they had prepared to block the door, and then used their shoulders to firmly hold the door shut!

"What are you standing there for! Come and help!!"

The three wounded men on the ground, even with their intestines almost spilling out, struggled to their feet and lunged at the door, grimacing in pain.

Use your back, your shoulders, and all your strength to hold the door shut.

"you......"

Buck was dumbfounded.

What's going on?

"Stop talking nonsense! Get to work!" the bearded man roared, veins bulging on his face, his eyes fixed on the second hand of his watch with terror.

"Ten seconds left! The bell is about to ring!"

Lin Bai's eyes flickered slightly, and he instantly understood the key point.

Wonderful.

These roughnecks actually came up with this method.

The rule for the bell is "no moving of any living being".

At the same time, the puppets are not restricted in their movement and will surround the living beings when the bell rings.

But if you enter a closed room without any dolls before the bell rings, and then resist by using an "immobile" posture—such as pressing firmly against the door—you can do so.

First, the action of pressing against the door is static and will not trigger the spatial threads.

Secondly, as long as the door is not opened, the dolls outside cannot come in.

"Buck, go up and help," Lin Bai ordered calmly.

"yes!!"

Buck and his two underlings hadn't fully grasped the principle yet.

But seeing everyone's tense demeanor, they dared not be negligent and immediately rushed forward, piling up like a human pyramid against the not-so-spacious metal door.

Lin Bai found a relatively clean box and sat down elegantly.

He stared intently at the doorway, deep in thought.

Since entering this strange realm, these peculiar rules... have given Lin Bai a strange sense of familiarity.

His expression suddenly changed, as if he had thought of something.

Yes... Cloud City!

When he first traveled through time, it was the city that had been in a cycle for a full 364 days.

It looks like this place!

They all possess certain special rules.

Could it be that the Cloud City where I was before was also a strange realm?

Who is the true form of the Mysterious Realm, or the Mysterious One?

Is it Su Wan? Or perhaps some other being I don't know about?

Lin Bai frowned, feeling that something was amiss.

At the very least, if that place really is a ghost realm, its level is frighteningly high.

It's far superior to the puppet theater we're in right now!

Before he could think it through.

Da, da, da.

The second hand returns to zero.

when--!!!

The dull tolling of the bell pierced through the thick walls, exploding in everyone's minds.

That instant.

Suddenly, a dense, chilling scratching sound filled the corridor outside the door.

Sizzle—sizzle—

It felt like countless sharp fingernails frantically scraping against a metal door panel.

Immediately following was a heavy impact.

Boom!Boom!Boom!

The gate shook violently, and dust fell in clumps.

The man with the thick beard at the front groaned, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth.

But he gritted his teeth, his eyes were bloodshot, and his body remained rooted to the spot, motionless.

......

Boom, boom, boom.

The bells stopped abruptly.

But everyone knew that this was far from the end; it was a signal that the battle was about to begin.

"Ready!"

With a low growl, the bearded man raised his submachine gun, pressing the butt firmly against his shoulder, his entire arm trembling slightly from the force.

The two henchmen next to him were trembling violently, and they gritted their teeth to barely pull back the bolt.

Buck glanced back at Lin Bai.

This gentleman was sitting on the box, resting with his eyes closed.

He looked so relaxed; you'd think he was sunbathing in the Maldives.

Seeing this "steady as a rock" demeanor, Buck's panic inexplicably dissipated by half.

What's there to be afraid of!

If the sky falls, the tall ones will hold it up; if the tall ones can't hold it up, then there's Advisor Bai!

"Open the door!"

Xie Qingtang gave a cold shout.

She straightened up again, her left arm hanging limply at her side, her right hand gripping the blunted dagger in reverse, her eyes fierce like a lone wolf cornered.

creak-

The shelves blocking the door were suddenly pulled open, and the metal door swung open with a bang.

Darkness surged in like a tidal wave, accompanied by countless pairs of scarlet electronic eyes that drew eerie streaks of light in the darkness, densely packed and sending chills down one's spine.

"beat!!!"

Rat-a-tat ...

The gunshots instantly illuminated the corridor as bright as day.

Shell casings clattered and splattered all over the ground like they were free, creating a death metal atmosphere.

However, this time, it wasn't that simple.

All those who poured in were uniform "tin soldiers".

These guys were covered in thick industrial sheet metal, with rough but sturdy rivets at their joints; they were practically a group of armored vehicles.

When the pistol bullets hit the metal, sparks flew, but they only left cracks in the sheet metal.

Only submachine guns could be of some use.

"roar--!!"

Braving a hail of bullets, the tin soldier roared like a wild beast, raising his rusty giant axe high and charging straight toward the doorway, bringing with him a stench of blood.

"Damn it!"

Xie Qingtang's pupils contracted.

This intensity is a whole level higher than the last wave!

If they were to rush into the storage room, everyone would be killed instantly!

"Get out of the way!"

Instead of retreating, Xie Qingtang advanced, his figure as fast as lightning, instantly passing through the gap between the two gunmen and leaping into the air.

The short knife in his hand precisely pierced the eye socket of the foremost tin soldier.

puff!

Black oil is surging.

The monster let out a mournful howl, but its giant axe swung out horizontally due to inertia.

Xie Qingtang twisted her waist forcefully in mid-air, barely avoiding the blow that could have severed her at the waist. When she landed, the blow aggravated her wound, causing her to turn pale with pain, and cold sweat instantly soaked her back.

It's too hard!

Given her current condition, dealing with even one would be difficult, let alone so many!

Seeing that the tin soldiers behind her were about to break through the defense line, a trace of despair flashed in Xie Qingtang's eyes.

Just then.

A lazy voice pierced through the noisy battlefield, sounding completely out of place.

"It's noisy."

Lin Bai sat on the box and picked at his ear with disgust.

"Ah-ya, go help them."

call--!

A gust of wind brushed past Xie Qingtang's face.

She only felt a blur before her eyes, and the towering black figure was already blocking her way.
