The door opened.

Andy rushed in, and there was a yellow color symbolizing safety everywhere, but referring to the previous trap, this yellow was probably also deliberately disguised, even if it wasn't wallpapered, it was probably dyed.

The monsters swarmed in, but once inside, their speed slowed down.

"Pike!"

Andy shouted, there were tables and balloons everywhere, and I don't know where the music came from, or the abcd.

A group of monsters suddenly rushed over from the side, Andy fixed his eyes, they gathered in a circle to celebrate, the guy in the middle slowly walked over with a plate of cakes, the two monsters carried a table and put it not far away, the cake was soon placed on the table, this cake was coated with purple cream, it looked very delicious and attractive.

"You guys.... What is this for? ”

Andy, who had already drawn his weapon, looked at the scene in front of him suspiciously, and the monsters seemed to be motioning for him to come over and eat the cake.

Andy slowly leaned over and took a piece of cake and put it in the Pip-Boy.

“.....”

Andy glanced at the beep-beep boy and immediately didn't plan to give these monsters any more face.

Several bullets knocked down several of them and took the opportunity to get out.

There were some blood stains on the ground, which was a clue that could be followed, and Andy took a step to shake off the monsters that were one step behind him, and followed these along the way, which was almost certainly the blood left by Pike.

"Whew-"

Andy ran all the way out of the distance, and when he saw several monsters standing not far in front of him, he stopped to check the remaining bullets of the pistol in his hand, and probably could fire four or five shots.

"Ah——!h

The sound of Pike's loud screams kept coming, and Andy had to rush over and shoot several of them down, seeing that Pike was now placed on a table, surrounded by monsters, as if he was a cake to be shared.

It was at this moment that the music stopped instantly, and was replaced by a violent noise.

There were no more bullets in the gun, and after trying to take out the Hercules Power Gauntlet, Andy had no choice but to start waving his fists after watching the monsters that quickly surrounded him.

There was a dull sound, and the body of the monster that was hit by the heavy punch dented and flew out, Andy only felt that his fist was not hitting any creature, but more like hitting a large piece of rubber, and after the force was hit, it was immediately absorbed as much as seventy or eighty, and the effect was not as obvious as the bullet shooting, although the blow could still make the monster unable to move for a while, but it was impossible to kill with one punch.

After five or six consecutive blows, a monster took advantage of Andy's flaws and stretched out his arm and bit his arm with its end teeth, but those teeth were blocked by the armor and could not really hurt him for a while.

"Boom-"

After a step, the monster that tried to bite him was knocked over.

More monsters gathered, they stretched out their arms and tore at Andy, in this saturated siege, Andy had no way to dodge, he was bitten I don't know how many times, and there were many weak points in the armor on his body that were bitten through by the sharp teeth at the end of those monsters' arms, because of the secretion of huge adrenaline, Andy couldn't feel anything at the moment.

Hull's voice came from the back of his neck, but Andy didn't have the heart to listen carefully, his fists were already sore and weak.

Three steps and two steps, Andy dragged Pike away from the table.

They fled for their lives in pursuit of the rest of the monsters, when suddenly, shouts were heard from under a table.

"Hurry up and hide under something, they can't bow their heads and won't squat! If there's something in the way, you won't be able to see you. ”

Hearing this, Andy saw that a wanderer was crouching under a table and shouting at them, so he immediately ran to the table and squatted down.

The monsters chasing from behind circled around the table, but none of them lifted the table or put their fanged arms under the table, perhaps in their senses, Andy and the others suddenly disappeared out of thin air.

The radio noise slowly stopped, replaced by the previous tune-changing children's song, the lyrics were blurry and inaudible, only a rough melody was playing back and forth, and the monsters scattered from the table, slowly walking in all directions, picking up the balloons and party hats again, as if they were about to return to their never-ending party.

Andy finally had time to catch his breath, he put the Pike on his back aside, and looked up at the opposite side, the person who had just called them and provided information and assistance was not far away, and on closer inspection, it was actually a young girl, she was wearing a black hooded sweatshirt, and many hairs of different lengths protruded from the hood, the longest part of which hung down to her waist.

"Thank you."

The girl under the opposite table stretched out a finger to make a silence motion, she looked left and right twice before running out from under the table where she was hiding, and after a nimbly roll, she quickly reached the table where Andy was hiding, which was barely large enough for three people to hide underneath.

"Be quiet when you speak, even if they can't see you, if they make a loud noise, they'll stay standing near the table and won't leave, and they'll be stuck here."

The clothes and pants that the girl was wearing were all dirty, and when she looked closely, she realized that the sweatshirt on her body was probably red, but now it was turned black by dirt, and there were long strips of items wrapped in rags hanging on the backpack behind her, I don't know if it was a knife or a firearm, it was difficult to judge just by looking at the general outline, or maybe it was a special part of the Backrooms that he didn't know yet.

Andy then switched to speaking to her in a lower volume.

"Thank you for telling me I can hide under here.... Call...... Were you tricked or forced into it by them? ”

The girl shook her head, and Andy noticed that her hands were covered in dirty bandages.

"It's not... I've come in on my own, and so many times I've lost count of them. ”

Seeing Andy's surprised expression, the girl smiled slightly.

"People like you who come in for the first time think it's weird and scary, but in fact... That's true, but it's a relatively easy and safe area to enter in the Backrooms, and mEG asks everyone to stay away from all partygoers and never enter a hedonistic party, but I'm going to do the opposite. ”

"Partygoers?"

Andy repeated the word.

"Are you talking about those square-headed monsters? Or do you call... Entity? ”

The girl nodded, then suddenly asked Andy to silence again.

A few partygoers passed by carrying an unrecognizable corpse, and if it weren't for the corpse's dead eyes that were too terrifying, just looking at the bodies of these guys swaying to the rhythm of the music would have made it feel a little more relaxed.

When the guys were gone, the girl breathed a sigh of relief.

"yes, we call these guys partygoers... Don't tell me you've eaten the cakes they gave you, they're made from the corpses they found, and once they've eaten they've become unconscious, they've been turned into something like them. ”

Andy shook his head as a matter of course.

"Of course I didn't, the cake looked weird... What do you always run to such a dangerous place for? ”

The girl took out a thermos cup.

"The more dangerous the place, the greater the chance, this thing is hard currency in the Backrooms, once other places appear, they will be picked up or adulterated, but no one here dares to touch it, and thanks to the fact that I accidentally discovered this secret, it turns out that as long as I hide under the table, I can stay safe, and then I often look for opportunities to come in here to pick up almond water.... You have to keep this a secret. Of course, in fact, I also have a purpose in saving you. ”

When Andy heard this, he suddenly realized that something was wrong.

"For what purpose?"

The girl was about to answer when Pike beside her let out a loud moan, and the two turned to see that Pike's hands had turned purple and his forehead was covered with sweat.

"He... It seems hopeless. ”

Rolling up Pike's sleeves and glancing at it, both arms were dark purple with obvious tooth marks.

The girl pointed to the bite marks.

"The partygoer has injected enough fluids into his body that his blood is no longer flowing to his arms, and it won't be long before both arms will die and fall off, and then the whole body will gradually become exactly like the partygoer."

Andy doesn't know if what the girl said is true, but Pike does seem to be out of breath and has hoped that this person will take him out of here, but now there is no hope.

"Can't you save him?"

The girl looked helpless.

"I advise you to dispel this thought, in less than half an hour his mind will change one step ahead of his physical body, and no one knows what he will do then.... Speaking of which, remember what I said earlier? I saw that you could punch a partygoer, what a terrible power, and I thought we could make a partnership. You must be asking me what I'm going to do after we work together, right? It's actually very simple, I heard about an incident not long ago, there was a man with a very precious item who ran into this place and never came out, and the thing he was carrying must still be here, and whether the partygoers made him into a cake or assimilated him, it would not disappear or be damaged. ”

Andy couldn't help but cover his face and sigh, why does this kind of thing always happen again and again? Is it because their teammates are more unlucky, or is it because they have influenced them? Since coming in, they have not been able to keep their companions at all, and they have either run or die.

"So.... Anyway, I don't want to lie to you, I was bitten by those partygoers when I tried to save him before, aren't you afraid? ”

The girl smiled and pulled her hood.

Her hair was actually a wig, the wig itself was glued directly to the hood, she was bald, and her pale face was covered in metal ornaments, ears, nose, lips and even tongue.

"You don't have a lot of fluids injected into you, and you can see at first glance that the fluids secreted by those guys will act directly on the central nervous system and block blood flow, but you look like everything is normal. Of course, you can't let your guard down, even if the amount of body fluid injected is small, it will continue to affect your physical and psychological effects over time, this is not a cycle of grief, once the transformation process begins, Almond Water will not save you. ”

When Andy heard her say this, he suddenly felt a strange tingling sensation coming from all over his body.

"That.... What should I do? ”

The girl took out a notebook from her backpack and opened it to reveal a box with unevenly distributed buttons on it.

"This is something related to what I said, and it's called the 'Talking Box', and its role is to answer all the questions about the Backrooms, including how to reverse the fluid transformation of the party-goers, and.... You know what it takes to get out of here and return to the world we were in. ”

When Andy heard this, hope suddenly ignited in his heart, could the way to leave be hidden in this?

"So what do you do next to find that box?"

The girl tilted her head, and took off the cloth-wrapped thing hanging from the back of her backpack and untied it, it actually seemed to be a water gun, the front half looked like some kind of children's toy, and the back half was a hose, which was connected to a square plastic box, which was supposed to be a water storage box for a water gun.

"Everything they think is extraordinary here will be sent to one place, and what we are looking for will definitely be there, so we have to make something extraordinary first, no matter how you look at it, this friend of yours will become a new partygoer in a day or so, but if his conversion process doesn't go well, then what will the partygoers think of him?"

Andy frowned and looked at the girl in front of him, always feeling that something was wrong in her eyebrows.

"You didn't say.... Is the conversion of partygoers incurable? ”

The girl tugged on the pump handle of the water gun in her hand a few times, and pumped the liquid from the water storage box into the water gun.

"Yes, I said so, and I'm right, while the transformation can't be stopped, but with some other gadgets we can create a false ephemeral ailment, and if we can reach this state, the partygoers will be drawn to take it to one of their secret warehouses, and coincidentally, I have a few of them."

Andy watched as she squirted the unidentified white liquid from the water gun onto Pike, then took out another bottle and unscrewed it, pouring out something like a sludge that looked a lot like the secretions from the Pathetic Corpse she had encountered before.

"You.... What are you doing? That thing can't be a wretched..."

The girl immediately made a silencing gesture and asked Andy to whisper.

"Yes, you guessed it, you're so smart.... Now that I've complimented you, can you be quiet? ”

Andy looks at Pike, who is still motionless, and it is clear that the girl wants to "reuse waste".

"He's not dead yet."

The girl blinked.

"yes, what's the use of dying? I'm going to take advantage of this moment to use the Mourning Juice to get him to start the Mourning Cycle, which will seriously conflict with the bodily fluids that the partygoers inject into him, so that he can't complete the assimilation so easily, and the water I sprayed on him is called Cashew Water, which will attract entities to approach. When the partygoers come by, they will notice that the person has not been assimilated, which is an anomaly for them, I'm sure of that..... Do him a favor and get him out, and then we can follow the partygoers to our target. ”

Pike, who had been sprayed with liquid, had a bitter, musty smell that smelled a bit like rotting old tree roots.

Seeing that there was already a sound of movement in this direction, Andy could only push the half-dead Pike out of the table, and soon after, the partygoers surrounded him and lifted him up and walked in one direction.

The girl immediately dragged Andy out of the table and followed.
