Chapter Seventy-Seven: Time is Ticking
"Most of the prisoners here don't know what sin they've committed." Dream Shadow looked up at the glass ceiling dozens of meters high, "The portal will be opened once a day, and at the same time as it opens, there will be many spirit beasts to eat the prisoner spirits, unless they have a pass, as long as they stand at the corresponding ticket gate with the ticket, the spirit beasts will not eat them, and they will also be sent to the world engraved on the ticket." ”
Hearing this, Fang Xiaoling instantly connected to the video she had just seen, "Is this the world played in the advertisement?" ”
"Not necessarily, if the Infinite Coins don't draw a pass, [Hope] will randomly play some outside world to motivate the Prisoners to keep moving and go to another end to claim the Infinite Coins."
"Every day, the portal will be opened, and those terrible monsters will fall ......" Fang Xiaoling remembered that Jiang Tongtong had mentioned the spirit beast before, It seems that that weapon is also called the spirit pen, it seems that the meaning of the word "spirit love" is very simple, it means to devour souls and destroy souls, "In other words, the pass is the only hope to live." ”
Fang Xiaoling looked around, and the prisoners left [Hope] one by one, they all moved their slow steps in despair, without the slightest sense of urgency.
Fang Xiaoling asked, "How long does it take to get from here to the end of the other side, which is the place to receive unlimited coins?" ”
Dream Shadow thought for a moment and said, "If we run at the speed we just had, it would take about two days." ”
"Two days, four days back and forth, that is, even if you run, you will probably experience two or four attacks from spirit beasts in the middle, right?"
Fang Xiaoling saw that Mengying nodded, and immediately asked loudly in disbelief, "Then why don't people hurry up? Oh my God......" She asked, looking at the zombie-like spirits around her, "what are they doing?" Don't you know that there will be a spirit beast tomorrow? ”
Yumekage didn't speak this time, just looked at her with a smile still on her face.
Fang Xiaoling felt inexplicably irritable, she ran a few steps, blocked the path of a prisoner spirit, and asked, "Why are you walking so slowly?" There will be a spirit beast tomorrow, so go get the coins? ”
The prisoner spirit's originally listless face suddenly showed the same smile as Dream Shadow, a little relieved, but also a little helpless, he didn't refute Fang Xiaoling, but said, "Yes, newcomer...... You're right, run hard, and maybe you'll be the next lucky one to get out of prison. ”
Fang Xiaoling straightened up when she heard this, "Who said I was a newcomer?" I just threw a coin into Hope. ”
The prisoner shook his head and smiled, and walked away from her.
"Unreasonable......" Fang Xiaoling ran to another prisoner again, but the response she received was basically the same as the previous one, the other party gave her encouragement and told her not to give up, but she continued to move slowly, without speeding up her pace at all.
Fang Xiaoling returned to Dream Shadow, and seeing her look of "I had expected it a long time ago", she asked a little breathlessly, "Dream Shadow, is it difficult to get unlimited coins?" ”
Dream Shadow shook her head, "As long as you get to the place, you can get one, it's very simple." ”
"So what are you waiting for? Hurry up and get it? Fang Xiaoling said impatiently, "No matter what you guys think, I must leave here, now I'm going to pick up the coins, will you come along?" ”
"You go first, I'll follow you."
"Then you're going to have to run faster." Fang Xiaoling moved her muscles, "Time is pressing!" ”
After speaking, Fang Xiaoling ran at her fastest speed, halfway she was afraid that Dream Shadow would not be able to keep up, but every time she looked back, Dream Shadow kept a distance of a few meters from her.
She stopped, and so did Nightshadow.
She continued to run, and Nightmare followed.
There were two more apocalyptic catastrophes along the way, and Dream Shadow held her hand tightly each time as before.
Even Fang Xiaoling was amazed at the luck of herself and Dream Shadow, who were able to survive two predations by spirit beasts.
"Every day you have to go through this kind of thing, and the prisoners of this world have not all been eaten?" Fang Xiaoling gasped and stopped to rest, she could already vaguely see the infinity symbol floating in the air in the distance, emitting a blue light, she knew in her heart that it must be the place where the infinite coin was collected.
"The number of imprisoned spirits will also increase." Mengying ran her sweat-soaked hair through her hand and said half-jokingly, "There are so many customers in the fast food restaurant every day, isn't the chicken farm still running as usual?" ”
Fang Xiaoling carefully recalled what Mengying said, she always felt extremely frightened to think about it, she no longer thought about the profound meaning of that sentence, and continued to run.
When they finally arrived at the place where the infinite coins were collected, Fang Xiaoling found that there was not even a person here, there was an infinity symbol emitting blue light above their heads, and countless small black boxes were placed on the ground, with no end in sight, and there were infinite coins in the boxes.
She bent down, and the box seemed to grow with the ground, and she couldn't hold it. But when she took the coin directly from the box, she easily took out a coin in her hand, and miraculously, a brand new infinity coin immediately appeared in the box.
"You don't have to go through any formalities, it's too simple." After saying that, she tried to get another coin in the box, but she couldn't pick it out, "It's so stingy, sure enough, you can only get one, Dream Shadow, you can take one too, right?" ”
"I don't want it." Yumekage just stood by and watched, "If you don't have hope, you won't feel lost." ”
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Fang Xiaoling couldn't wait to grab the other party's arm and force her to take it, "You're all here, just stretching out your hand, why don't you take it?!" ”
Dream Shadow didn't have any extra explanations, just said calmly, "I don't want to take it." ”
"Are you pretending to be cool? Then you'll be in prison waiting to die! Fang Xiaoling angrily began to run, thinking that by doing so, Dream Shadow would secretly collect a coin after she left.
In the process of going back, Dream Shadow took the initiative to step forward and take her hand twice, which means that the spirit beast came from the portal twice, although every time it happened, it was thrilling, but Fang Xiaoling seemed to understand what Dream Shadow said, "everyday" feeling.
Fang Xiaoling stood in front of [Hope], with tears in her eyes, her hand holding the infinite coin slowly approached the coin drop, but she never put the coin in, after all, this is a coin that she has obtained after "a lot of hardship".
"Or ...... You come first? Fang Xiaoling looked at Mengying.
Dream Shadow pulled out the two empty pockets of her pajamas with both hands, grinning and revealing two small tiger teeth, "I really didn't take the coin, I said I didn't want to take it." ”
Fang Xiaoling suspected that Mengying's spirit might be a little abnormal at this time, so she gritted her teeth and threw the coin into it.
There wasn't even a sound of landing.
Instead, there are advertising images that appear on the screen.
The starry sky in the video reminded Fang Xiaoling of the starlight world, she missed those spirits who called her "Lord of Light", but after more than half a minute, the screen was closed.
Fang Xiaoling stood stiffly in front of [Hope], feeling unprecedented despair.
The fruits of all her previous efforts were swallowed up by [Hope] at this moment.
In exchange, it was only "keep up the good work" that was played for less than a minute.
