Suddenly turning his head to look, the clown statue on the stage moved, and a beating heart appeared in its hand.
In front of him, a middle-aged man’s expression turned fearful, and he stepped back two steps, collapsing instantly, no longer moving.
At that mont, the clown suddenly teleported in front of a girl, his right hand conjuring a red cloth over the beating heart, suddenly pulling away the cloth to reveal a blood-colored flower in his left hand.
In the girl’s terrified expression, the clown elegantly presented the flower before her.
The girl took two steps back in fear, while the clown’s eyes also glowed red.
Recalling the hint on the note, Bai Miao decisively called out a reminder:
"Applaud, quickly."
The girl turned her head to look, her expression bewildered, clearly not understanding what was going on.
"Applaud!"
Bai Miao was instantly infuriated, what a useless teammate.
The girl still made no move, her expression fearful as she continued retreating.
Just then, the clown moved again.
Squelch.
The clown’s right arm pierced directly through the girl’s chest, extracting a beating heart.
After killing the girl, the clown flickered and appeared in front of a man with glasses, the heart turning into a deck of playing cards, from which he drew one, suddenly transforming into a venomous snake.
"Applaud, quickly," Bai Miao reminded again.
This ti, the young man’s response was quick; he decisively applauded.
The clown heard the applause, removed his hat, bowed to the man and nodded in thanks.
The bespectacled man, having narrowly escaped danger, looked at Bai Miao with gratitude.
"Hey, what exactly did you discover?" Yellow Hair raised the folding knife, his voice carrying a threat.
Facing the inquiry, Bai Miao did not hide anything, detailing the two clues he had just discovered.
Upon understanding the reason, Yellow Hair decided to continue searching for clues in the tent, then head to the rry-go-round area to search for dolls, which might yield an item for combating monsters.
The main mission requires survival until dawn.
But to survive, it is clearly impossible to achieve by hiding.
The "item" ntioned in the task is crucial.
After searching around, the team with no other clues followed Yellow Hair out of the tent to the carousel area outside.
Here, surrounded by rusted iron fences, a slanted sign was hanging, reading "Happy rry-Go-Round," but "Happy" had been eroded by the elents, leaving only "rry-Go-Round" barely legible.
In the center stood a vintage carousel platform, the horses long lost their vibrant colors, paint peeling to reveal mottled wood grain.
As they approached, the old speakers suddenly began playing eerie music, the tone stretching like a warped music box lody, fluctuating in pitch, making Bai Miao and others feel a chill.
Amidst the music, the carousel platform slowly began to move, the horses starting to rise and fall as if coming to life.
"You, go pick a horse to sit on."
At this mont, Yellow Hair raised the folding knife, directing it at Bai Miao.
"Why... why always ?" Bai Miao couldn’t hold it anymore.
"I told you to go, so go, don’t argue with ." Yellow Hair grinned, revealing yellowed teeth, his expression unfriendly.
"Can’t you bully soone else, what have I done to you, do I look easy to bully?" As he spoke, Bai Miao’s gaze swept over the remaining 10 people in the team, then pointed at a fair-skinned, nervous-looking young man:
"Look, this one clearly looks easier to bully than , right?"
Yellow Hair, however, did not follow Bai Miao’s gaze, instead, he grinned nacingly:
"You pathetic wretch who cries at the start, better you die early than be a burden."
Bai Miao: ...
Hearing this, the players in the live-stream laughed crazily.
The evidence showed that, sotis, a starting strategy of crying could instead make you a target of bullying.
In the comnts section, everyone thanked the seasoned veterans for correcting the strategy.
This shattered Bai Miao’s mindset, realizing he had beco a stepping stone for forum players’ strategies.
Thinking he had persevered until now, to react now would be to waste previous efforts... endure!
He decided to simply play the bullied role earnestly, if necessary, he would willingly act like a sycophant, aiming to get rewards and then consider revenge.
Understanding his position, Bai Miao plastered a smile on his face:
"Brother, I’ll listen to you."
Saying this, Bai Miao willingly stepped onto the carousel platform.
Hearing Bai Miao’s submission, Yellow Hair was briefly stunned, his expression revealing a gleeful satisfaction.
When Bai Miao stepped onto the carousel, it automatically stopped, after a mont’s selection, he chose a white horse and mounted it.
The carousel started again, its speed increasing.
During this process, Bai Miao seed to hear countless laughter ringing in his ears, for a mont seeing the figures of many tourists, riding on the carousel, smiles on their faces.
As the carousel stopped, nothing happened.
Bai Miao scratched his head in confusion, then jumped off the horse and walked off the carousel.
"Did you find anything?" Yellow Hair imdiately asked.
"No, nothing happened."
Seeing Bai Miao cooperate like this, Yellow Hair nodded, then looked at soone in the team:
"Next, you go."
Saying this, Yellow Hair aid the folding knife at the fair-skinned young man.
"I... I won’t go."
The young man’s expression instantly turned pale.
"I told you to go, so go." Saying this, Yellow Hair kicked the young man in the abdon, knocking him to the ground.
Then Yellow Hair stepped forward, crouched, and pressed the folding knife against the young man’s neck.
Under the threat of death, the young man had no choice but to nod fearfully.
This ti, the young man picked a red horse, mounted it, and the carousel platform started spinning.
