Chapter 23: The Burn
In front of Han Dong's room.
Chen Li was guarding the door, and after seeing that Edward had started a search on the first floor of the bungalow, she turned her head and asked:
"Do you need me to do it?"
"There are nearly four hours left until the end of the incident, and Edward must not be allowed to divulge the information that I am alive when the [evil spirit] has determined that I am dead, but we must not kill him directly.
Miss Chen Li, let's do this later......"
Han Dong informs him of his tentative plan to deal with Edward.
After the latter heard about the plan, Chen Li was a little worried about Han Dong, "Your body ...... It doesn't matter, right? What if the other party detects the trap? ”
"It's just simple thinness and poor physical strength, and there are still some means of self-defense...... Rest assured, now that Edward was badly wounded and wounded, he realized that the probability of a trap was slim.
On the contrary, if he sees you in advance, he will be wary. ”
"Okay."
Chen Li found a corner on the second floor and hid it...... As for his younger brother Daqing, he hid quietly in a certain area of the bungalow as originally planned.
…………
"Hiding on the second floor?"
Edward. Murray completed the search on the first floor of the bungalow as quickly as possible.
Just as he walked out of the firewood room and headed for the stairwell......
In a highly tense situation, I heard a murmur mixed with the sound of the rainstorm,
Suddenly turned his head and looked at the wooded area outside the bungalow.
A 'crawling' life flashed quickly in the night.
This made Edward's heart tremble.
Ming Ming cut her mouth with a steel knife and sprayed high-temperature flames directly into her mouth...... Judging from the screams and injuries at the time, it was obvious that it was a 'fire-phobic' constitution.
How long has it been? Why did you chase after you?
My cousin is right, in the rookie-level fate event, in addition to the simple task of opening a star...... In high-star events, all kinds of monsters, even if they are well aware of their weaknesses, are extremely difficult to kill.
Even if you are seriously injured, you will recover in a short time.
I've got to get Nicholas out of the way and buy me time.
Otherwise...... Really going to die!
I must be a returnee, I must join the Knights, I must see the outside world! ”
Scold!
Hydraulically pushed.
A burst of hot steam spilled through the gap between the prosthetic arm, and an assassination blade about thirty centimeters long ejected from his palm.
At the same time, on his left arm, he also holds a wood-splitting axe found in the firewood room.
Edward's killing intent has been fully revealed, even if he encounters the [Evil Evil Chen Li] with a kitchen knife in his hand, he will slash head-on without fear...... In order to survive, Edward has suppressed his 'fear' to the lowest level.
Rush up to the second floor.
Go directly to the 'No. 1 room' where Han Dong lives.
However.
Click!
When the sword pierced the lock and kicked the door open.
Han Dong, who was thin and weak, really sat on the edge of the bed...... It's just so easy to find, it's a little weird.
At this time, the sound of torrential rain continued.
Edward could faintly hear eerie cries coming from the woods.
It is this invisible sense of oppression from the 'evil spirit' that makes it difficult for Edward to think completely calmly and comprehensively.
At the last moment, Han Dong did not hide, but took the initiative to stay in room No. 1...... As long as you use your brain, you can guess that there must be fraud in this.
But under the pressure given by the evil spirits, coupled with the eagerness to kill Han Dong.
Let Edward ignore this.
After all, in the face of a guy who is not even as strong as a woman, with his prosthetic strengthening, he can easily pinch the other party to death with one hand.
Edward said with a fierce expression, "I'd like to know how you escaped when you were in a group with 'Akkman'...... But now time is running out of time to decrypt it. ”
Glancing around the room, after making sure there weren't any traps set on the surface.
Edward's killing intent was revealed, and he headed straight for Han Dong......
Click!
As soon as he took three steps, Edward smashed the ground with one foot and his body fell violently.
Because his upper body is slightly wider than his lower body, his waist is just stuck when he falls halfway.
A simple and hidden trap.
Edward, who was stuck in his lower back and abdomen, struggled frantically in a panic, causing the steel bars between the floors to penetrate his flesh...... There is no possibility of breaking free at all.
Deadend.
Edward stared at Nicholas, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, looking at him struggling, and realized that he had made a stupid low-level mistake.
Meanwhile.
There was a click, and the door behind him closed.
A woman in red with messy black hair joins in.
Instead of killing Edward directly, Chen Li found a hemp rope to tie Edward's two hands, and then used a kitchen knife to destroy the key gears on the prosthetic.
In this way, Edward became a lamb to be slaughtered.
At this juncture, Edward was relieved.
"Valen. Nicholas...... You're not an ordinary civilian, are you?
You are not at all on the same level as these people who died.
Originally, I was going to keep a frail civilian like you as a last resort. Unexpectedly, there was a mouse left, and it was still a despicable mouse who could think.
Are you a member of the church? Or a newcomer secretly cultivated by the Knights? ”
Han Dong just looked at him and didn't make any answer.
Actually, Han Dong still wanted to get more information from him...... It's hard to ask anything just by looking at him like this.
That's just at this time.
The sound of a bell on the first floor was a signal from Daqing, which meant that the evil spirit had appeared and entered the bungalow.
"Let's go!"
A staircase leading from the window to the first floor has been prepared.
Calculate the time, Han Dong and Chen Li left through the window.
After meeting with the little brother Daqing, several matches were thrown into the ...... through the windows of each room on the first floor Firewood, which had been soaked in gasoline beforehand, was quickly ignited.
"Go to the cellar."
After Han Dong and his siblings lit the fire, they abandoned the bungalow building and went to the brick farmhouse where the 'Hidden Event' had been activated.
…………
Crunch!
The door to the second floor of the bungalow was pushed open.
Akaman, whose mouth was cracked and blackened, quickly crawled into the room.
She kept turning her head to stare at Edward, who was tied to the bed, his tongue cut out and unable to speak.
Akaman still has some thinking skills, and he doesn't quite understand how Edward ended up like this.
Bursts of heat rose from the soles of his feet, and the flames had spread completely throughout the bungalow.
Akaman is indeed afraid of natural fire, and to make sure nothing goes wrong, she takes matters into her own hands.
When ten fingers were placed on Edward's face, the young-born man did not show much fear, and only hatred for Nicholas could be seen in his eyes.
There's no room for manoeuvre.
He lost.
"When a survivor dies, the cooldown is reset to 2 hours...... The current number of survivors is [1]. The restriction will be completely lifted in the last hour.'"
When the evil spirit received the message was about to climb out of the building, it must have been broken due to the fact that the bungalow had long been abandoned, and the pillar collapsed when the flames spread completely on the first floor.
The entire bungalow collapsed in an instant, and it was submerged in the flames.
