CH 78

"Dad" felt a little bad about the situation, these lucky kids seemed a little different from the previous ones. It's like the difference between a normal high school student and a teenage manga hero. ......

Unfortunately, it was too late to retreat.

Before "Papa" can think of a solution, Xiao Lan is already charging at him with a dagger.

The shiny blade slid past, its sharp edge sending a shuddering wind through the air, and "Papa" hastily reached out with his paws to block it.

"Clang--"

After a sharp chirp, he barely blocked the slash, but he was also left with deep slash marks on his sharp claws.

"His claws were able to dig through the stone slab without any damage, but this guy's dagger was made of some kind of material, why was it so hard?

And isn't ...... this kid a little too strong, like an angry bull, not at all the same way as those soft and soft and juicy cuties.

Which one of us is the real non-human?

Without waiting for further thought, Xiao Lan's attack came again, a succession of blades flashing in front of him, forcing "Papa" to retreat, his hands out in unison, barely able to cope with the attack in front of him.

"Ka-ching-"

A new slash fell and the claw, which had endured several attacks, finally snapped under the weight.

The next moment, Xiao Lan's dagger in his hand stabbed hard into "Papa's" arm.

"[It's a dagger tainted with poison] deals damage to Dad with additional toxicity: sodium chloride"

Xiao Lan: "......"

So this guy's name is Dad, what a random name, it seems that "Grandma" might actually be called Grandma, what a desperate level of naming.

"Ow..."

The sodium chloride, or salt, entered "Dad's" wound with the dagger, giving him the pleasure of salting it, and he screamed in agony.

While he was too busy screaming to defend himself, Xiao Lan struck out with another dagger. This time, the dagger sliced through "Papa's" thick, fat neck, but unfortunately the skin was too thick and the flesh too fleshy, so it missed the bone.

"[This is a dagger tainted with poison] Damage to Dad, additional toxicity: 84 disinfectant - high concentration"

"Ow ow ow-"

The screams of "Dad" got louder, and in the silence of the night, there was a sense of the killing of a pig before the New Year's Eve dinner.

Although 84 disinfectant has the word disinfectant in it, it is usually used on clothes, floors and things like that, and not for human wounds as it is corrosive and irritating and can produce a burning sensation.

Simply put, it gives you the pleasure of putting a fire in your wounds.

Under the weight of double happiness, "Papa" felt that his soul had been uplifted. It seemed as if his "grandma" was waving at him from far away in heaven, and look how lovingly she smiled.

He was bleeding from his neck and although he hadn't been hurt to the point, the bad boy didn't know what he had put on the dagger and it really hurt too much to take a cut.

"Daddy" gasped Xiao Lan: "Ho ...... you ...... are such a... ...vicious bad boy!

Xiao Lan looked at him with an innocent expression, "It's not really my fault."

You can only blame your bad luck, it's the first time I've seen someone so miserable, experiencing salt in the wound and fire in the wound in quick succession.

Xiao Lan knew the principle of taking advantage of your illness, and as he spoke, he attacked Papa again. "Dad, who had already broken several nails, was extremely tired and after a few rounds, another slash was thrust deep into his body.

"[It's a dagger tainted with poison] deals damage to Dad with additional toxicity: poison fly gooseberry"

In an instant, "Papa's" eyes, which had been slightly fierce, became misty.

He looked at Xiao Lan and surveyed the air around Xiao Lan: "So many people ...... so many people are beating me up, you, you can actually split!"

The light of Xiao Lan's blade was now a blanket of snow in his eyes. One Xiao Lan was terrifying enough; a blanket of Xiao Lan was a scene out of a nightmare, a scene that terrified him from the bottom of his heart.

"Help me!!!" "Daddy" screamed so loudly that Xiao Lan's ears hurt and his hands slowed for a moment.

"Dad" seized the opportunity to scramble out from under Xiao Lan's blade, unconcerned that his clothes had been cut off, and screaming at the top of his lungs, "Come on! Come and help Daddy!!!"

Then, the big rattle-heads that had chased Xiao Lan arrived and attacked them from different directions, as if the buffet had finally started.

At this moment, the rocket launcher that Wang Taidi had been keeping on hand came into play.

Unlike its overbearing appearance, this thing was actually a bubble barrel. From the mouth of the cannon, a huge amount of bubbles spewed out and flew towards the incoming giant rattle. The bubbles wrapped around the rats were as if they were trapped inside, and they were unable to scratch the fragile bubbles, which even rolled on the ground with a grunt as they exerted themselves.

The bubbles were wrapped around the rattle, rolling in a ball on the ground, and every now and then they would scream in disorientation.

It looks very funny and ridiculous.

As Wang Taidi waited for the bazooka to cool down, an even darker and leaner looking creature than the previous large rattleman leapt out from around the corner, and, with great speed, he precisely bypassed the bubbles flying through the air and burst through Wang Taidi's blockade.

Xiao Lan's claws are fiercely directed towards the back of Xiao Lan, who is attacking with all his might.

A smug smile flashed across the face of the big, skinny black rattletrap, as if he could foresee the sweet taste of blood spurting out.

A silent, black, sharp blade cuts through.

The next instant, the smile on the black thin face turned into dismay, how did it see the ceiling? The ceiling was clearly ...... so high ......

The body that had lost its head remained in a forward position and ran two steps before collapsing with a crash.

"You ...... killed the npc ......" Wang Taidi intoned with panic.

Players know that after killing an NPC, the NPC's corpse will automatically seek out a player to replace itself, and the first person to be sought out is the one who killed it.

Sure enough, the big, black, skinny, ratty corpse slowly turned into a jelly-like puddle of sticky liquid that flew in Luo's direction.

Luo simply stretched out his hand without panic, and a dark shadow, invisible to ordinary players, spread out, wrapping around the viscous liquid, then absorbing it like a sponge absorbs water, soaking up the very unsettling-looking liquid.

A few moments later, there was no trace of anything left on the ground.

Luo's lips hung in an elegant smile, "That level is not worthy to come after me."

The eyes of Wang Taidi, who could only see the corpse turn into liquid and try to swallow Fei Luo before disappearing into thin air, were filled with: "Damn, this is a descending blow from the big man.

Luo's image in his mind became more and more unfathomable, what skills this man ...... actually had that were so awesome.

Wang Taidi is saddened by the thought of having to rely on props.

On the other hand, "Papa", who had been beaten to death by Xiao Lan, was completely defeated.

The toxicity of the poison fly gooseberry exploded completely, sending him into an endless hallucination where he cowered nose-to-nose like a real rat, but his belly still wouldn't shrink.

He murmured, "Lots of people ...... hit me ...... eat gogo...don't talk ...... nest ...... hey ...... grandma on live ......"

It seems that the world of illusion is very rich.

Xiao Lan looked around, saw that all current danger had been removed, and put away [it was a dagger tainted with poison].

Wang Taidi also put away his bubble bazooka and felt a bit of pity for his "dad": "I feel a bit sorry for this guy."

Xiao Lan surveyed it, "If you give it a match, doesn't it look like the little girl who sells matches?"

Luo: "...... What really happened to your childhood?"

Thanks to the children's drawing tutorials, he has some knowledge of human fairy tales, which definitely do not include this spicy image in front of his eyes.

Wang Taidi said with a grimace, "You're an insult to childhood, what little girl goes bald and has a big belly!"

Seeing that no one was supporting him, Xiao Lan scratched his head and changed the subject, "So ...... let's leave first."

--

The trio continued in the direction of the gate, perhaps because the process seemed much quieter after a wave had settled a large number of pursuers.

--

Arriving in the foyer.

A strong smell of blood fills the room and Xiao Lan looks in the direction where it is coming from.

It's Hu Yue.

More precisely, his corpse.

Hu Yue had been pulled into a gap in the cupboard from the waist down, a gap so small and narrow that apparently no human being in his normal state could get into it, so there was plenty of blood all around, with strong signs of struggle.

It is clear that before his death he had also tried hard to survive.

Hu Yue's eyes were wide open and his boyish face was filled with disbelief, as if he had seen something completely unexpected. One of his hands was stretched outwards, clutching a little scrap of fabric, as if he had been tugging at someone to call for help.

"That's Gu Jiangke's dress." Luo's superb memory allowed him to recognise the source of the fabric scraps in an instant.

It seems that the golden lap that Hu Yue tried so desperately to cling to has abandoned him at the last minute.

The incredulous look on his face probably came from the same source.

Xiao Lan did not say anything as Wang Taidi pulled the blanket from the sofa next to him and handed it to him. Xiao Lan tossed the blanket farther towards Hu Yue's body. The blanket covered the body and buried Hu Yue's expression, no matter what the past, at this moment they were just wretches caught by the descending world and forced to struggle between life and death.

Covering up the bodies for each other was a last bit of fellowship.

Perhaps Hu Yue could not have imagined that the person who pushed him into the abyss of death was the one he had gone to so much trouble to find, and that the person who finally helped him to clean up his body was the one he had never liked in life.

The impermanence of life is probably just that.

"Keep going." Xiao Lan didn't look at Hu Yue's blanket-covered body again, "The door is just ahead."

Standing in front of the door, the wooden gate stands peacefully and quietly, without looking the least bit dangerous.

Xiao Lan instructed Luo to take Wang Taidi back and he stepped forward vigilantly to put the key into the lock hole.

Just as the key touches the lock, a large hand slaps down from above towards Xiao Lan, who rolls to the ground to avoid the attack.

The ground shattered instantly and if that had been a person standing there, they would have been mud by now.

He looked back in the direction of the attack and saw a huge arm sticking out of the window by the door, the slap just now being caused by the palm of his hand.

The arm is withdrawn from the window and Xiao Lan sees the face of his "grandmother" through the broken window.

Her face had become incredibly large and was cradling the entire cabin in her arms like a giant, so you can imagine that if anyone tried to leave the house by climbing through the window, they would be directly attacked by her.

"Granny" casually rubbed her hands together, the hard wood like it was made of paper, and she looked around the room with an eerie smile.

This size, this combat power, is clearly not meant for a player to go head to head with her.

Xiao Lan remembered that the prompt specifically mentioned "keys".

I'm afraid that the only access to the outside world in the whole house is through the door opened by the key, and after making a smart move to get out from somewhere else, one would probably just wander around the world.

There was a "grandmother" watching and occasionally groping at the door with her hand, making it difficult for Xiao Lan to open the door.

He takes a few steps back and gestures for Wang Taidi to take out his small board.

Xiao Lan: Do you have a stealth prop?

Wang Taidi nods his head.

Xiao Lan turns the board towards Luo: Can you temporarily distract her? Five seconds will do.

Luo nodded slightly before retreating towards the darkness behind him.

Xiao Lan and Wang Taidi also pretended to step back, and in the dead center of "Grandma's" vision, Xiao Lan used the invisibility prop [You Can't See Me] and then stood quietly in place, waiting for Luo to make his move.

Grandma, who already had poor eyesight, didn't notice the difference and was still excitedly waiting for the next person to appear.

A few moments later, the sound of a window being broken suddenly came from the other side of the corridor.

"Grandma" frowned, these stupid children, why do they always try to run the window? She reached out and slapped her hand towards the window where the noise was coming from.

It was at this point that Xiao Lan quickly rushed forward and opened the door with the key.

Behind the door there was no path they had come from, only an endless darkness, yet it was a clear indication that this was the true way through.

After opening the door, he stood by it and waited for Wang Taidi's code word.

The next second, a small red ball appeared on the ground, their agreed code for Wang Taidi's exit.

" Luo ." Xiao Lan called out in a low voice, then the black figure appeared behind him and he grabbed Luo's hand and quickly stepped through the door.

"Sneaky bad boy!!!"

There was also the faint sound of "Grandma's" angry growl behind her.

The system prompt representing the clearance rings out.

"Ding dong--"

"Congratulations to Xiao Lan for clearing the game 'Grandma's Bedtime Story'"

"Obtained [Grandma's Random Gift Box], do you want to open it (Yes/No)"

In the darkness, Xiao Lan looks at the box that he couldn't understand before, but it's really a gift, so it seems that "Grandma" is very generous as a boss.

He chose to open it.

[Name: It's a Brick].

[Ability: None]

[Description: Hey! Sun Tzu, is this the brick you dropped?]

Xiao Lan: "......"

He decided to retract the remark he had just made.

The author has something to say.

Grandma: It's impossible to be generous, not in this lifetime.
