Sizzle!
The pipes were also damaged, and water sprayed out.
How sharp Lin Baici’s senses were; he imdiately noticed that the bedsheet ghost, wet from the water, wasn’t as tightly bound.
He imdiately shook his head, used sound to locate, and moved towards the source of the water.
Splash! Splash!
The bedsheet ghost got drenched.
Indeed, water seed to be its nesis.
Lin Baici was no longer as suffocated, as if a killer trying to strangle him suddenly lost strength.
"Can I pull it off now?"
Lin Baici urgently asked in his heart.
The Eater God didn’t reply.
Lin Baici figured it was about ti, couldn’t just keep deadlocked like this.
With his left hand, he lifted it with all his might, grabbed the sheet, trying to exert so force.
Huh?
Not painful?
The next instant, Lin Baici exerted a large force.
Swish!
The sheet was pulled off from his head by Lin Baici, and light reappeared.
The toilet was mostly shattered, with clean water spraying out from the broken pipes.
A few tentacles not only wrapped around his hands but also began to entwine his ankles.
After a stalemate of over ten seconds, Lin Baici finally reached the hand axe, picked it up, and started chopping vigorously.
Sizzle! Sizzle!
The severed tentacles bled and released Lin Baici, retreating like an injured squid into the cave.
Lin Baici stood up, picked up the candlestick, and went after the bedsheet ghost.
After getting soaked, the guy started to run, but much slower.
Once Lin Baici exited the bathroom, he threw the candlestick at it.
Go!
Lin Baici’s aim was decent; the candlestick hit the ghost, bringing it down to the ground and catching fire.
Boom!
"Ah!"
The ghost let out a ghastly scream and rolled around like soone unfortunate being set on fire by a flathrower.
After more than a minute, the ghost stopped moving and was reduced to a pile of black ash.
Lin Baici spat, going back to the bathroom.
The water was still spraying.
Lin Baici didn’t repair the thing; instead, he rummaged through the toilet fragnts and the accumulated water.
"Got it!"
Lin Baici found a brass key.
Having just suffered a sneak attack, nearly strangled, or dragged into the toilet to drown, Lin Baici’s mind was still unflappable. Holding the key, he prepared to go to the basent.
Just then, the phone rang.
Checking the ti, it wasn’t the ti for Gu Qingqiu’s report, so who was it?
Red dicine?
Lin Baici went to answer the phone, picking it up, and before he even had a chance to say "hello," a cold voice erged from the receiver.
"You will die when the midnight bell tolls!"
"No need to wait for midnight, co over now, and I guarantee you’ll know why the flowers are so red!"
Lin Baici retorted with harsh words.
He waited for the other side to curse back, testing for information, but they stayed silent.
"Damn it!"
Lin Baici hung up the phone and headed to the basent entrance.
Knock knock! Knock knock!
The knocking resud.
Lin Baici was lazy to bother, squatting halfway on the ground, unlocked the padlock, lifted the iron plate, but just as he was about to step in, he stopped.
What if he went down and soone re-locked the iron door?
Better deal with that knocking first!
Lin Baici went back upstairs, entered the room with the wedding photo, bent over, and looked under the bed.
The pair of female slippers was gone.
Sure enough!
Lin Baici earlier thought that the knocking might have been caused by these slippers, and with the slippers now missing, it just confird it.
"Co out, I know it was you!"
Lin Baici shouted, holding the hand axe, wandering around the small house looking for those slippers.
[A very foresighted judgnt, if you hadn’t destroyed those slippers and entered the basent directly, you would have been trapped in there forever!]
The Eater God praised.
"Why didn’t you tell where that thing went?"
Lin Baici rolled his eyes.
The more scared he was, the more intense his emotional fluctuations, allowing a powerful evil ghost to quickly be born from those slippers, but now there was no chance.
Lin Baici spent half an hour and finally found the pair of female slippers in the storage room.
Since Lin Baici hadn’t been scared since entering this forest cottage, the slippers remained in their original state, having never grown.
Lin Baici got them effortlessly.
"How should they be destroyed?"
Lin Baici first thought of the candlestick, then shook his head.
He went to the living room, used a few pieces of firewood, and lit the fireplace.
Watching the flas rise, Lin Baici threw the slippers in.
"Woo woo woo!"
The slippers imdiately struggled and cried.
But it was useless.
Being burned to ashes was their only fate.
"Quite resistant to burning!"
Lin Baici remarked sarcastically. He waited a full five minutes before seeing the pair of won’s slippers completely ruined, then he returned to the basent entrance.
After taking a breath, Lin Baici went in, but once he went down, he ca back up.
It was pitch black inside, nothing could be seen.
Lin Baici retrieved the small candlestick and returned to the basent. He descended the stairs, followed by a short corridor.
At the end of the corridor, there was an iron door.
It wasn’t locked.
Lin Baici pushed it open.
Creaaaak!
In the piercing sound of rust, Lin Baici stretched the candlestick inward, glanced around, and his eyelids jumped suddenly.
Luckily he was brave enough and his nerves strong enough, otherwise he would definitely be frightened.
This basent was neatly organized with flower beds, about a ter high and half a ter in diater, but the problem was, they weren’t planted with flowers, but people!
Yes, people after being severed at the waist.
Either the upper half or the lower half, just stuck in the flower beds.
The lower body’s two legs hung down, not too terrifying, but the key was those upper bodies.
After having their hands chopped off, their eyelids, mouth, and ears were all sewn shut, and these ’people’ were still moving, which was very frightening.
Lin Baici, who was used to big scenes, even felt a bit numb at this mont!
It wasn’t terror, but disgust and nausea!
If it were an ordinary person, they might have vomited.
Lin Baici estimated that these ’human plants’ would definitely cause trouble later. Could it be that when the midnight bell rings, they fully mature and then chase him down?
Just as Lin Baici was thinking about how to destroy these flower beds, a system voice suddenly rang.
"Congratulations to the player Dustin Hoffman, for killing the Midnight Monster and clearing the Forest Cottage!"
"All players, please go to the town square for assembly. Ten minutes later, the return teleport will be activated!"
"Latecors will be forever trapped in the ga and beco an NPC!"
It’s over already?
Lin Baici was surprised, but considering the the of this ga and the slave master’s prestige, he could handle these rule pollutions, surely others wouldn’t panic even a bit.
"Profited!"
Lin Baici smiled, went upstairs, and took out the burning firewood from the fireplace in the living room, throwing them on the flammable furniture.
He planned to burn down this cottage!
As Lin Baici ca out of the cottage, he saw Xia Hongyao already waiting.
"Little Linzi!"
Xia Hongyao anxiously looked at the cottage Gu Qingqiu had chosen: "Will Little Qiu Qiu be okay?"
"Don’t worry!"
Lin Baici reassured, after all it was the safe house chosen by the Eater God, bound to be fine, but the high ponytail: "How about you?"
Lin Baici saw Xia Hongyao was injured, with blood.
"Encountered a ghost that couldn’t be killed, got a bit careless!"
Xia Hongyao feigned calm.
In fact, she almost stumbled, if it weren’t for Gu Qingqiu’s tily phone call, asking casually, she wouldn’t have found a way to deal with that ghost.
"God Lin!"
Cowgirl sister ca out, shouted from afar.
Hoffman also arrived, and everyone imdiately showered him with flattery.
Hoffman didn’t respond, nor did he show the kind of pride ’you benefited from ’, only a disdainful arrogance.
Xia Hongyao was just about to see Gu Qingqiu when she ca out of the cottage.
"Alright, everyone’s here, let’s quickly head to the square!"
Goryeo sister urged.
"Not a single one missing?"
Cowgirl sister marveled.
"It’s all thanks to the boss!"
Jiang Ge praised Hoffman.
Soon, everyone arrived at the town square.
Actually, it was just a slightly larger, well-leveled playground.
"What should we choose for the next round?"
Liao Hongming asked softly.
No one answered him, everyone was silently observing each other, based on attire and physical condition, they could infer everyone’s strength.
The weaker the strength, surely the more miserable in the cabin.
Lin Baici was a bit embarrassed in this round, but the girl nad Gu Qingqiu was unscathed, looking cleaner than the slave master.
