221: Chapter 108: Don’t Move 221: Chapter 108: Don’t Move “Help…
help!
Don’t co any closer…
help!!”
When Zhang Xiaoman arrived above the desolate field, the first thing he heard was a scream filled with fear.
The voice ca from a woman, who seed to be just a short distance ahead.
He imdiately lowered his altitude and headed over.
Guided by the dim light of a flashlight, there appeared to be a figure standing rigidly.
No, to be precise, there were two figures.
Zhang Xiaoman’s brow furrowed slightly, because in his Spirit Detection Technique, he sensed an unusual aura below, only that this aura was a bit strange.
The reason it was strange was that the shape of this thing was actually a small ball.
“A small ball?
Could this possibly be a monster like a Wandering Spirit?
But why do I feel like the shadow on the ground isn’t like that…”
Zhang Xiaoman was quite puzzled.
Based on past experience in the Dark World, the monsters he usually saw there looked the sa as in the real world, only made of Dark Energy and with indistinct appearances.
However, the situation before him didn’t seem to fit this pattern.
“Never mind, I’ll go down and check.
Saving people is what’s important.”
Zhang Xiaoman shook his head, deciding not to dwell on the issue, and then landed the car a little behind the person below.
The woman standing in place was naturally Song Shuting, who had co here for a creepy live exploration broadcast.
Song Shuting had beco frightened since she discovered the anomaly with the Scarecrow.
At first, she was slowly backing away, and the Scarecrow had not reacted, but just as she turned around, she again heard that terrifying, strange noise from behind.
“Creak, creak…”
At that mont, her mind buzzed, and she felt as if she had been struck by thunder, with intense fear spreading instantly throughout her body, making her legs feel as if they were filled with lead, unable to move.
Then, as the sound grew closer, Song Shuting felt her scalp tingle.
Summoning up the courage to look back again, she was horrified to find that the Scarecrow was now less than 5 ters away from her.
The Scarecrow was holding a rusty sickle in its hand, its arms open at an angle, facing her, with a red glow previously seen in its eyes reerging like two embedded rubies.
It was then that Song Shuting realized that these weren’t rubies at all, nor so reflection of light; these were clearly the eyes of the monster in front of her!
The phone she was holding subconsciously was aid in the direction of the Scarecrow, recording everything happening in front of her clearly into the live broadcast room.
In the live room, the barrage of ssages surged endlessly like a tide, and more and more people joined in after their friends’ calls, witnessing this terrifying scene.
“Oh my God, the host actually encountered a monster!
Run!”
“So terrifying!
Is this real?
Where is the host now?
Anyone who knows the location should call the police to help her; she must be safe!”
“Barrage Shield, Barrage Shield…”
“I have to say, that was a top-notch performance.
Give the person playing the Scarecrow an extra chicken leg.”
“Strear, whatever you do, don’t turn around and run!
Every ti you turn around, it moves, just like the ‘one step, one look back’ ga we played as kids!
Face it and try walking backwards out of there!
Just don’t turn around and run away!”
“…”
The barrage of comnts in the live broadcast ford a continuous stream, and the popularity continued to soar, quickly reaching the top of the hopage.
However, at this mont, Song Shuting had completely lost interest in the content of the live stream.
She also thought about not turning around, desperately suppressing her fear, and slowly retreated backward.
For an ordinary woman in her twenties, to be able to calm down and proactively analyze the situation in such a scene was already a testant to her strong ntal fortitude.
But what happened next was even more horrifying.
As Song Shuting took steps backward, the Scarecrow also lifted its long wooden legs and took a step forward, and due to its height, each of its steps was much bigger than the girl’s.
By that ti, Song Shuting had been so frightened that she had forgotten to cry, and the comnts were filled with anxious voices.
Her legs stiff, she stood frozen in place, daring not to move again.
The Scarecrow also stopped, but now the distance between them had gotten even closer, only less than 3 ters apart.
Song Shuting just felt weak all over.
The horror monster’s slanting body seed about to press onto her face.
She now felt extrely regretful.
Why did she have to do a horror adventure live stream?
Why not just work a regular job and earn money?
Did she have to risk her life like this?
“Strear, don’t move!
And don’t turn around.
We’ve already called the police for you, just wait there for the police to arrive!
At this distance, moving even a bit could be dangerous!”
“Right, strear, you definitely can’t shift your gaze!
Hang in there, just keep it up!
We’re with you all the way!”
“Are so people stupid?
If the strear can’t shift her gaze, what’s the point of sending these kinds of ssages?
Can she even see them?”
“This is so scary, this scene just inexplicably reminds of a ga we played as kids.
We were all scarecrows… no one was allowed to move, and whoever moved first would… be dead!”
“No, this monster must have so kind of chanism.
If you step back and it follows, then what if you step forward?
Would it step back?”
“…”
In the live room, many people were giving suggestions, but as one of the comnts ntioned, Song Shuting dared not shift her gaze to look elsewhere at that mont, wishing she could stare unblinkingly at the monster in front of her.
“What to do, what to do…”
Inwardly, she repeated this question desperately.
Tears finally fell at this mont, but already terrified by the Scarecrow, she now didn’t even have the courage to wipe them away.
“Am I just going to stand here forever?
Will this monster disappear when it gets light?
Has anyone in the live room called the police for ?
Ah…
I can’t do this, it’s too tiring to keep my feet still in one position for so long, I’m afraid I can’t hold on much longer…”
Thinking this, she beca overwheld with grief, and the tears kept falling freely.
“Help…
help…”
Song Shuting, full of despair, called out twice more, hoping for a miracle to happen.
However, just as her words fell, she suddenly heard a rustling sound behind her.
The noise wasn’t very loud, but in the silent wasteland, it was extraordinarily clear.
