Chapter Twenty-Three: Escaping the Dilemma

Now, a serious question is in front of us.

If we continue to stay here, not only will all the residents of the happy community be left without bones, but even our own lives will be in danger.

Expansion of the field will not be able to protect these people. The realm only allowed me and my sister and the monsters to enter the virtual space, and yet the inhabitants were still inside the gourd. (If everyone is outside the gourd at this time, I can use the domain to protect them from being sucked into the gourd.) )

There is only one way. That is, no matter what, you have to break this gourd.

But is that okay?" Xiao Lan looked around at everyone.

What does it matter? I asked Xiaolan. If we don't, we're all going to die.

But if this gourd is really destroyed, Xiao Zi will lose all her strength. She is different from us, she has no special abilities of her own, and she completely depends on this gourd. If she loses it, she's just an ordinary girl with more strength than the average person.

Can I say that even if Xiao Zi doesn't have a gourd, if she fights me, it's enough to flatten me badly......

But now here are many lives and our own lives.

Xiao Zi, please forgive us all. Xiaohong said to the vast orange-red space. It's we who have caused you to lose your power. In the future, when we rescue you, let us use our own strength to protect you.

You lost the gourd, we make your gourd. You have six gourds. Xiao Huang also said.

No, it's seven. I spoke. And I'm here. As long as I'm alive for a second, I'm not going to let anyone hurt my sister.

Having said that, I have to complain to myself, in fact, my sister has always been protecting me......

Brother, that's a good point! Then let's all work together!

My motivation is up! Xiao Huang clenched his little fists. Golden light converged on the fist from the rest of its body.

Smash it!

She sped forward and punched the purple gourd's shell.

Did it work?

The answer is no. Because there was not even a trace left in the place where it was hit.

How could this be? Xiao Huang stood there dumbfounded.

Let's get on it together.

My sisters were ping-pong in the gourd, but none of them had the desired good results. On the shell of the gourd, not even the slightest trace appeared.

I'm sorry, but is there anything hard that I can borrow?" asked the people who were still awake.

How's this going? Someone handed her a sledgehammer.

Xiaohong picked up the hammer and smashed it against the shell of the gourd with all her might.

In a few clicks, the hammer shattered.

Give it back to you...... Red returned the shattered hammer to the man.

Alas, I knew it would be like this.

Is there anything more sturdy?

Everyone shook their heads.

Please, please. If this continues, we will all die!

We don't want that. Someone smiled wryly.

Little Orange, do you have any good ideas?

Well......

Little Orange, she began to scan the inside of the gourd with clairvoyance. Her gaze could penetrate the husk of the gourd.

How's it going, have you found anything?

Those two monsters...... It seems that I am planning to travel to the next city.

In that case, wouldn't it cause a new chaos in that city?

The thickness of the shell of the hoist is also not uniform. Some places are thicker, while others are weaker. If we can all concentrate all our forces to attack the weakest position, we may be able to break the gourd. Here, it should be the thinnest position. She gestured to a spot on the shell.

Then she picked up a piece of chalk and drew a circle there.

Everyone, please concentrate your strength to attack the place in the circle!

But I remember, in the animation, weren't you just sucked in by Xiao Zi all with a gourd?

Because of that time, we were also affected by the destruction of the light, and we were no longer united. This time is different, we are united.

That's great. It's up to me now!

Xiaohong lifted a large rock with a proud face and smashed it towards the position of the circle with all her might.

The stone shattered. But there is still no trace. Although Xiaohong used enough strength.

It's useless, you can't find anything harder here than this gourd material.

Then use my fists!

Xiaohong punched hard in the position of the circle.

Ahh

She let out a high-pitched scream.

What happened to you?

My hand......

It seems that it is the hard shell of the gourd, which hurts Xiaohong's hand.

In fact, the more force she used, the more she hurt herself with the backlash.

Let me!

Yellow also used all her strength, but was unable to do enough damage.

Red had enough strength, but hitting something harder than her own body with her fist would only make her hurt her hand. Xiao Huang is just the opposite, her body is hard enough, but her strength is not enough. If only the two of them could come together.

Together?

Little red, little yellow. If you two can strike together, you might be able to.

They both looked at me with some confusion.

To put it bluntly, let Xiaohong use Xiaohuang as a weapon.

yes, I didn't think of that!

It's still my brother's best.

But...... I regret that I said that sentence again. Or wait for now......

Xiaohong, I will do my best, and now I am your most powerful weapon.

As the user of this most powerful weapon, I will use her power to the fullest.

Come on!

Xiao Huang raised his arms above his head, and his two fists were brought together. A golden light gathered from all over the body to the top of the two fists.

Xiaohong's body swelled rapidly, reaching a height of more than ten meters in the blink of an eye. She gently grabbed Xiao Huang up. It was like holding a humanoid dagger.

But it's getting too big...... It's a little hard to align.

At this moment, two blue rays of light shot out of the little orange eyes on the side, shining on the circle drawn.

Just go to that point, use all your strength, and stab down!

Okay, I'm coming.

At this point, I can't stop it. The huge little red vigorously poked the little yellow in his hand towards the circle and the clairvoyance marked by the little orange, and the weakest part of the gourd. The elongated arm brought a strong gust of wind pressure. Everyone watched with bated breath.

She stabbed.

A loud and piercing noise was heard. I can't tell what it looks like, but it's very sharp and harsh. Two objects, both very hard, collided violently. It was like a sharp spear piercing a strong shield. There will be one wound to both. Either the spear pierced the shield, or the shield broke the spear.

The place where the two collided burst out with dazzling light, and suddenly there was only a dazzling white left in front of people's eyes.

The light was gone. My vision has also regained its original appearance.

Who won?

Click. Click.

I see it. Where Xiao Huang hit, a crack appeared. Then there was the second, the third. Eventually, multiple rifts surfaced there.

You, you succeeded!

But Xiao Huang's arm suddenly hung down softly. The bones in it appear to have been injured by Yan zhòng.

Next, it's yours......

She said weakly.

I know. You have a good rest. Brother, help take care of her.

Red shrunk again. I took Xiao Huang from Xiao Hong's arms.

Let me open this place!

Red went to the location where the rift had come and used all her strength, hoping to break a hole in it with both hands. In this way, it will be easy to solve the problem. Hope is also burning in our hearts.

After a few minutes, however, hope turned to disappointment. She couldn't make a hole no matter what.

This time, let's try it for the two of us, Xiaohong, you're good enough.

Midori and Aoi gently pulled Red aside.

Let this gourd see my awesomeness all of a sudden!

Xiaoqing's mouth squirted out a monstrous jet of water, hitting the place where the crack appeared. The water was rolling in a turbulent stream, constantly pounding at the cracked spots.

However, the impact of the water did not allow us to break a hole in it and let us out.

I'll burn it.

The fire erupted towards the cracks again. But it still didn't work. The rifts show no signs of further widening.

Then let's blow this place up with lightning together!

The two of them shot lightning together. Bright, blinding lightning crackled, hitting the place where the crack had appeared. And yet it was useless.

How so.

Obviously, Xiao Huang's blow with all his strength had already cracked here, but he didn't expect that he would no longer be able to move forward when he was still one step away from the outside. There was already a crack, but there was no way to make a hole.

Keep it up!

Come on, come on!

The residents of the happy community couldn't help but shout in unison.

I'm also very anxious. But I just can't think of a way.

Is it going to fall short?

Little Red angrily pounded the ground with her fist.

Xiaolu, Xiaoqing, maybe there is another way to do it. Xiaolan said to the two of them.

What's the solution?

If you know, just say it.

Here's how to do it...... First let Xiaolu heat the shell of the gourd with a flame, and then let Xiaoqing spray water to cool it down quickly. Finally, it was broken with lightning.

Is this any different from what you just had?

That's it.

Xiaolan, although I don't want to complain, what you said is basically nonsense.

Definitely not. Attention, what I want is for Midori to let its temperature rise quickly, and then let Teo drop it down quickly. And it had to be repeated many times, and finally broken with lightning.

The two of them still didn't seem to understand.

Let me give you an analogy. Do you know about deserts?

I know. Midori said.

Do you know why there is so much sand in the desert?

It was formed by the rock breaking due to the drastic change in temperature.

Exactly, as long as the temperature of the place where the crack has already appeared can change rapidly, it may be possible to further expand the crack. At that point we can break it and escape!

I see!

Green, it's up to us next.

Okay, look at mine.

Midori opened her mouth again, spitting out a large amount of blazing flames, which began to continuously and rapidly scorch the location where the crack had appeared.

No, you have to add a little more strength!

Midori's flames were even more intense than before. But beads of sweat began to appear on her forehead. Actually, we're starting to sweat too.

Stop!

Midori immediately suppressed the flames. Instead, Xiaoqing sprayed the water stream with all her strength at the place where it had been burned by the flames just now, so as to quickly cool down. A large amount of white water vapor was scattered in this space, and it was impossible to see anything clearly.

When the temperature drops completely, it is replaced with a light green to heat and burn. And so on and so forth, and so on, and so on. Xiaolu and Xiaoqing don't have much strength.

Come on!

Come on!

I'm shouting and cheering. The same goes for the other sisters. Residents of the community have joined the bandwagon. The shouts echoed through the gourd's space.

Almost, right?

yes, let's blow this place up with the last of our strength!

Almost identical, two dazzling bolts of lightning erupted from Xiao Lu and Xiao Qing's mouths at the same moment, hitting the place where Xiao Huang had made a rift and was attacked by flames and water currents in turn.

It worked.

A hole was finally broken there. The size is large enough for several people to pass through guò.

But there are still a lot of people here.

I'm going to make it bigger!

Xiaohong came to the place where the hole appeared, grabbed the edge of the hole with her own hands, and forcibly broke off a large piece there, and then another piece was broken off in another place. After a while, the diameter of the hole was more than doubled.

I can't.

Little Red lay on the ground. She doesn't have any power anymore.

Get out of here, everybody!

Wait, I'll go out first. The monster is still out there.

After Xiaolan finished speaking, he stealthily drilled out of the hole.

After a while, her voice came from outside.

Well, those two monsters are sleeping. I stole the gourd, and now I've left the tunnel with everyone. Hurry up, everyone!

The residents cheered with joy. They were almost crazy, and they poured out like a tidal wave. A few of us went out with us.

The place where we came out was the vacant land left behind after the disappearance of the happy community.

Come out!

Xiaolan held the gourd that had been broken and pointed forward.

A large pile of collapsed buildings erupted from inside.

Great, thank you for saving us!

If it weren't for you, we'd be dead!

Thanks to you!

The residents held our hands and couldn't stop thanking us.

But...... I don't know who said it. Our home is gone.

Well, this one. I slipped to the side.

Jade Emperor, Jade Emperor!

What's wrong?

This time he was quick to respond.

Can you think of a way to restore these people's homes to normal?

Okay, no problem.

A bottle of elixir appeared in my hand.

This time, the elixir was refined by the Golden Furnace Boy.

Is it also used to eat?

Please, do you really think that the pills are just to be eaten? There are a lot of pills that you can't eat at all. You can't eat this one, otherwise you'll have diarrhea. Hydrate it, pour it on the ground, and everything that has been damaged within a kilometer radius will return to normal. All the buildings you destroyed before were repaired with this thing.

So I did as he was told.

In an instant, all the destroyed buildings were restored. The happy community has become intact again.

A miracle, a miracle.

Someone exclaimed.

It should have been.

But what else? And the people who get hit by the rays and go crazy?

You can rest assured, this brother. Those people will be back to normal after a while. Little Blue said to me.

That's it.

But that's not the end of the story, the two monsters are still alive.

That's right. I forgot about this.

However, Xiao Hong, Xiao Huang, Xiao Lu and Xiao Qing, their four main combat strengths, are no longer able to fight.

You forgot you still have me, brother. Little Blue said to me. I'm also very powerful. Don't underestimate me.
