Chapter 312 Going there would be suicide
The flames lasted a long time.
They burned all the members' clothes, scorched everyone's bodies, and burned away the last bit of their faith.
When the flames disappeared, the crack in the sky was restored to its original state, as if it had never existed.
The tiny hope for survival that everyone worked together to create seemed to be nothing but an illusion.
"Pfft."
Someone laughed self-deprecatingly: "I was worried about not having any clothes to wear and feeling awkward, but now that everyone's burned, what's the difference between us and wearing black clothes covered in scales? It's not awkward anymore."
Lu Youyou raised her arm to look.
Like black coke.
No, it's not coke.
If a human body is burned to a crisp, can it only feel pain but still move freely and flexibly?
Shouldn't they lose their ability to act or even die?
Even if she can move such a dilapidated body because she drank human evolution fluid, how come ordinary members can also move?
In a flash of inspiration, she grasped the most crucial point.
"It's an illusion!" Lu Youyou shouted, "The idea that our bodies are burned is an illusion! If we were really burned, would we still be alive?"
"The Abyss is trying to corrupt our will to save ourselves through various means, and I suspect it can't just kill us directly! Otherwise, it would just kill us cleanly, so why keep us alive?"
Wang Qiao added from the side, "Youyou is right. If the initial reason for keeping us alive was to watch us kill each other, now that we know that we can break the cage together, isn't it a bit strange to still keep us alive?"
Zhang Weimin also said, "As you all know, I used to be a firefighter. I was burned by real fire, but the scars and pain don't match up!"
Lu Youyou shouted, "Stand up! If we're destined to die, we'd rather fight to the death than lie down and wait to die!"
With renewed confidence, everyone endured the pain and unleashed their skills towards the sky.
"Click~"
With a crisp crack, the sky split open once again.
As more and more people put in their full effort, the opening gets wider and wider.
Lu Youyou shouted, "Little Crow! Go up and take a look!"
The crow shrank its body, about to squeeze through the opening, but was bounced back by a transparent barrier and crashed heavily to the ground, scattering its feathers everywhere.
The gloating voice of the Black Abyss rang out again.
“You, you, I gave you a path to life, but you didn’t choose it. Instead, you chose the most difficult one.”
"Now look what's the use of your men working together? Your gang isn't all there! Just wait to die! This time it's really your time to die."
The breach that everyone had worked so hard to break open was thus closed.
Now, no one could say a word.
Zhang Weimin's voice trembled: "Is it because Xiaoyan and Xiaoning didn't come?"
Even though Lu Youyou didn't want to admit it, she still nodded.
Xiao Liu said casually, "Uncle Zhang, let Sister Yu Ning and Sister Yan come over. Anyway, we already know how to break free from the cage!"
Zhan Yu also said, "Yeah, anyway, we're only in pain, but we won't die. Now that the two older sisters are here, everyone in our gang can get out."
Zhang Weimin was in tears: "I know, but I can't send the message out."
Li Jinyue added, "Even if the news could be released, the two of them wouldn't be able to come; Sister Yan is unconscious."
Everyone exclaimed in surprise: "What?"
Wang Qiao and Lu Youyou looked at each other. Ever since Yang Yan came out, the two had stayed together and were sure that neither of them had told anyone about Yang Yan's coma.
How did Li Jinyue find out?
Li Jinyue endured the pain and forced a smile: "Youyou said before that Sister Yan has menstrual cramps, but I remember Yang Yan said before that she doesn't have menstrual cramps."
"Also, Yu Ning always stays with Uncle Zhang, afraid that he won't handle things well. Yu Ning didn't come this time, so she must have stayed in Yang Yan's car to take care of him."
Zhen Lu's voice trembled: "So... Sister Yan is unconscious and can't use the teleportation card? Perhaps Yu Ning will find out that we haven't returned for a long time and can't be contacted, so she will bring Sister Yan to the car and teleport here together?"
Wang Qiao shook his head: "There is only one situation in which the two can teleport together, and that is when Yang Yan shrinks his own car and sits in Yu Ning's car, so that Yu Ning can teleport Yang Yan together."
"But Yang Yan is unconscious and cannot shrink the vehicle, and Yu Ning cannot shrink other people's vehicles. It is not possible to forcibly put Yang Yan in your own vehicle for teleportation, because a person cannot be too far away from their own vehicle."
Upon hearing this, everyone felt utterly despondent.
The situation was equally critical in Yang Yan's car.
She struggled harder and harder, almost breaking free of the iron handcuffs.
Zhang Yuning used an enhanced version of the paralysis bullet to immobilize Yang Yan and replaced her handcuffs with a new pair.
"Yan Yan, what's wrong with you... Don't be like this, I'm so scared."
For some reason, Zhang Yuning felt uneasy, her eyelids twitched involuntarily, and her heart was beating faster and faster.
All the gang members left to attack the Black Abyss and earn human evolution fluid. Why hasn't anyone come back?
And what about Youyou and Qiaoqiao? They're both so strong, why haven't we heard anything from them when they went to find the Centipede Dream Envoy?
She knew she was prone to anxiety, so she refrained from sending messages to everyone, afraid of delaying their plans.
But she had been holding back for four hours, and the gang group and private chat pages were completely silent. If it weren't for everyone's avatars still being lit up, she would have thought that the entire gang had been wiped out.
Not anymore!
She had to send a message to ask.
Zhang Yuning first sent a message in the group.
[Zhang Yuning: How is everyone?]
Then he tagged Wang Qiao and Lu Youyou in the small group chat.
[Zhang Yuning: @Lu Youyou @Wang Qiao, have you defeated the Centipede Dream Messenger, you guys with the strongest fighting power?]
A long time passed, and no one replied.
Zhang Yuning's unease grew, and she couldn't help but seek out Lu Youyou for a private chat.
[Zhang Yuning: Youyou, are you alright?]
hum-
Your message was not sent successfully. Please try again later.
Zhang Yuning's heart skipped a beat, and she muttered to herself in disbelief, "How could this be?"
She then sent a private message to Wang Qiao, and received the same notification that the message had not been successfully sent.
Zhang Yuning panicked. She naturally didn't think that Wang Qiao and Lu Youyou had blocked her; they must have entered some separate space.
Could it be that I was also drawn into a dream by a centipede?
That's why the communication channels were cut off?
As if verifying something, Zhang Yuning clicked into the gang group and randomly found a gang member's profile picture to send a private message, but still received the same notification.
Youyou and the other members went to find different monster NPCs, but why couldn't they contact any of them and kept getting the same message?
Could the centipede dreamer's name be Hei Yuan?
That's right! That must be it!
One is a name, and the other is a title.
Whether it's the Centipede Dream Messenger or the Black Abyss, they both represent the same monster.
"Yan Yan, Youyou and the others are in trouble! I have to go save them. Are you okay staying in the car by yourself?"
Zhang Yuning's question was destined to go unanswered.
"It's on my arm! The centipede is on my arm!!! Cut open my arm and take the centipede out!"
Zhang Yuning was both anxious and heartbroken. Yang Yan was completely unable to be alone in the car in this state.
If any outsiders come, they don't even have a chance to resist.
"Yu Ning, please, cut open my arm!"
Zhang Yuning raised his eyelids, shocked that Yang Yan had actually called out his name.
Does this prove that Yang Yan is sober?
Could it be... that Yang Yan really has a centipede in his arm?
Even if we take a step back and cut it with a knife, it shouldn't kill him, right...?
Zhang Yuning threw a fruit knife and made a small cut on Yang Yan's arm.
Yang Yan suddenly opened his eyes, staring wide-eyed, wanting to say something, but then closed them weakly.
thump.
The huge car was transformed into a keychain. Zhang Yuning was already standing, but felt a sense of downward pressure, so she put her feet on the ground.
Yang Yan was in a terrible situation; his hands and feet were tied up, and without the car and bed, he fell directly to the ground.
The insects, attracted by the smell, swarmed onto Yang Yan.
Zhang Yuning roared as he sprayed the insect-killing elixir, finally killing the insects.
"Yan Yan, before you lost consciousness, you used the vehicle to shrink the bubble. Was it because you wanted to help me save them?"
“But you… you’re unconscious. I can’t let you risk your life in this state. If you go, you’ll just be sending yourself to your death.”
