Excessive ferocity due to caution

590

"Holy crap..."

Qin Bai was stunned.

The consequences of not knowing where one will go are far more terrifying than death itself!

The teammates of the trial participant who had been strangely modified were not in much better shape.

His teammate was nearby and kept staring at him, which eventually led to him being infected by the strange phenomenon and dragged into the abyss along with him!

Both of them turned into black shadows, and in a daze, they headed towards the tower, eventually disappearing into the eerie green light...

Similar to red light, green light also did not last very long.

Soon the green light began to flash rapidly.

Then it turned red.

The trainees on the four roads leading to the town center immediately found themselves able to move again!

"Ichiko-kun...that's awesome!"

Qin Bai's eyes revealed an expression of admiration.

"How did you find out?"

Zhao Yi shook his head.

"I haven't actually noticed... it's just a guess."

"These shadowy figures are so stingy, they won't even let you look at them, so you definitely can't touch them."

"Then, combined with the effect of the red lighting, I suddenly had this idea."

"So based on their frozen behavior, I deduced their general next move and then chose a relatively safe location."

"Looking back now, we were actually pretty lucky; we just stumbled upon the right answer."

Qin Bai was also secretly afraid.

If Zhao Yi hadn't suddenly realized what was happening and guessed correctly, their fate would have been extremely dangerous!

"So, next, we need to guess what the shadowy figures will do next based on their previous behavior, in order to determine our hiding place?"

Zhao Yi stroked his chin, looking at the location of the dark figure, and said:

"Yes."

"We don't have much time left."

Qin Bai frowned slightly:

"But Brother Yizi, we can't just keep hiding like this..."

Zhao Yi has a keen eye for detail:

"Yes."

"It's not difficult to predict their future actions based solely on what has happened so far. The real problem is that their behavior may not follow a completely logical path..."

"For example, a child might be helping his mother buy soy sauce. He might see a grasshopper on the way and suddenly deviate from his original path to catch it..."

"And we don't have many chances left."

Zhao Yi pointed to the top of the lighthouse.

That number has changed from 3 to 2.

"We have two chances left. We need to get to the base of the lighthouse quickly. There's no light there, which means the other shadowy figures can't get past that spot."

Without further hesitation, the two hurried towards the foot of the lighthouse.

But the trial participants soon discovered that no matter what method they used, their movement speed was the same!

The red light emanating from the lighthouse... was limiting their speed!

"Oh shit!"

"This phenomenon is truly bizarre!"

As Qin Bai followed behind Zhao Yi, trying to get closer to the lighthouse under the red light, he clicked his tongue in amazement.

For a moment, he didn't know whether he was lucky or unlucky.

Upon entering the Abyss for the first time, I encountered strange and bizarre phenomena within it.

There are at least a hundred trainees on the four paths.

There were already many people in the town before Zhao Yi entered the cursed world.

They stayed in the cursed world for almost a day, and the time ratio between the cursed world and the outside world is one to one.

Qin Bai had already cursed a few times in his heart.

These unlucky creatures must have touched something they shouldn't have, causing this strange phenomenon to occur...

If I had known, I would have preferred to stay in Thomson's cursed world.

Let Brother Yi fool him for a couple more days.

Once the strange phenomenon ends, they will be much safer to come out!

Most of the trial participants were quite astute. Although they hadn't understood what had happened and had only survived by luck, they roughly understood the opportunity to survive after the lighthouse's light changed color.

You must determine your location in advance, then avoid the shadows and reach the foot of the lighthouse!

On the four paths, the trial participants headed towards the lighthouse as far as possible!

Of course, in addition to their speed being restricted, their final landing point was also restricted.

soon.

The red light on the lighthouse began to flash rapidly!

"Brother Yizi, it's time!"

Qin Bai was extremely nervous!

Zhao glanced at the red light:

"Get in place!"

Qin Bai tightened his gluteal muscles and scrambled up the nearest lamppost.

Zhao Yi, on the other hand, stood on another street corner.

Ahead on this street, a panicked trial participant had no idea where he should stand.

There were many dark figures around him, some tall and some short.

Upon seeing Qin Bai climb onto the streetlight, he immediately realized what was happening and climbed onto the nearest streetlight as well!

Now he felt much safer.

Even looking at Zhao Yi, who was standing some distance away on the ground, there was a hint of kicking him when he was down.

In his eyes, the streetlights were an absolutely safe place.

After all, who would climb up a street lamp for no reason?

But the position Zhao Yi is standing in is hard to say.

There were dark shadows all around.

When the red light turned green again, the surrounding shadows began to move.

The three short, dark figures, resembling children, walked hand in hand to Zhao Yi.

Just as they were about to pass by, they suddenly stopped.

Qin Bai, perched on a lamppost, watched Zhao Yi nervously, fearing that the children might suddenly take a few steps back.

However, these small dark figures did not retreat; instead, they turned around and pointed at the streetlight where Qin Bai was.

Qin Bai suddenly felt a tightening in his anus...

These little things...

What do they want to do?

"They wouldn't want to climb up here, would they...?"

"Damn it, what kind of brat are you? Why are you climbing on that lamppost?!"

Qin Bai panicked.

He kept cursing the child's parents in his mind for not educating their child properly.

By the time the three children reached the streetlight, Qin Bai was so nervous he felt like his soul was leaving his body!

Don't climb...

Don't climb!

He roared inwardly, his eyes blazing with fury.

Under the streetlights, the three little creatures were furtively discussing something, glancing around furtively.

Soon, under Qin Bai's bloodshot eyes, the three brats took a few steps back.

Immediately, one of the mischievous kids reached into his crotch and pulled out... a slingshot!

"Grass!"

Qin Bai's fair face turned green with fright.

The boy with the slingshot aimed at the streetlight and put a small pebble into the rubber band.

The pebble was also a shadow.

But the mischievous child's target wasn't the cypress tree on the pole, but rather a street lamp that was some distance away from it.

call out!

The pebble flew out, almost grazing Qin Bai's hair!

Qin Bai froze completely!

Almost there!

So close!

Qin Bai cursed inwardly as he came to his senses!

Squeeze it!

Even slaughtering a pig shouldn't be this torturous!

Give me a quick death, you bastard!

The mischievous child once again pulled pebbles from his pocket and aimed them at the streetlight.

At this moment, Qin Bai stopped scolding the child's parents; he only prayed that the child's technique would be more accurate!

The slingshot pulled by that small black shadow was just like Qin Bai's already taut heartstring, which could snap at any moment!

Whoosh—Bang!

This time, the pebble hit the streetlight above Qin Bai's head accurately!

The light bulb shattered, and shards grazed Qin Bai's cheek, causing some pain, but fortunately, the shards were not fatal!

The mischievous child jumped up happily!

Some adult figures nearby hurriedly came over and chased away the unruly child.

The group of mischievous kids hurriedly ran towards the center of town.

Another trial participant, who was perched on a lamppost, breathed a long sigh of relief, thinking he had escaped unscathed...

Oh shit.

I never imagined that streetlights could be so dangerous!

He secretly rejoiced.

But obviously...

He underestimated the unruly nature of the brat wielding the slingshot.

In the instant he passed by, he saw the running kid aiming at him... and suddenly pulled back the slingshot!

Whoosh—Bang!

Goodnight, my darlings!
