Chapter 59: A Huge Cake
A group of partygoers carried Pike in a strange state in one direction, and Andy and the girl cautiously followed not far behind.
"Even if you get to that place in a moment, how are you going to find that box? How do you get the box out? ”
The more Andy thought about it, the more he felt that it was unscored.
Both Pip-Boy and Hull are telling him something new.
"Five wounds on your body appear to be bleeding poorly, and further analysis is ongoing."
The girl didn't answer, but just followed the partygoers, and as soon as the other partygoers appeared or the music stopped, the two of them could only quickly flee to a nearby place where they could hide, and after about ten minutes of following, the partygoers walked into a door, which was very large, a rare double door, and had a lot of party-style accessories on it.
"Ready?"
The girl asked, then tilted her head to the side and pushed the door straight in.
Behind the door was a very large enclosed space, and a huge table was placed inside, almost like a building, and it was impossible to see what was on the table when standing underneath, and at this moment the partygoers had sent Pike to the position below the side of the table.
In all corners of this enclosed space, there are countless gift boxes, ranging from small ones that can fit a teddy bear to large ones that can fit a car, and these gift boxes come in a variety of colors and styles.
The two of them crouched behind some gift boxes and hid, and Andy saw the girl take out the notebook and write and draw on it, as if she was recording the route she had just taken, and it seemed that she was not going to come here only once.
"How are you going to find that box? Here..."
Andy casually took a small gift box and opened it, and inside was something that resembled an egg, but it was not of the kind he could distinguish.
"That thing is extraordinary, it doesn't just sit here randomly, it must be in some dangerous position, like that table or something..."
The girl also opened a box, and the contents looked like a moldy rag.
"Anyway, you have to try, you don't want to stay in this place anymore, do you?"
With that, she pointed to the partygoers outside, and Andy saw a few streamers hanging down from the table at some point, and the partygoers grabbed Pike and slowly moved upwards while clinging to it.
"Hold on!"
The girl saw that the partygoers were going up and immediately ran out of the gift box, grabbed the rising streamers, and Andy next to her also grabbed one after a full high jump, and the two were quickly taken off the ground by the two streamers and dragged towards the table, and soon, they reached the top of the table, and when they looked down, the height was about ten meters.
They stood on the edge of the table and saw the partygoers put Pike on the floor, and not far in front of them, there was a huge cake, the width of a small house, two or three meters high, the cake was covered with colorful cream, frosting everywhere, and many candles were stuck on top of the cake, which seemed to be divided into two layers, and there was a clear dividing line between the two layers.
"Do you see what's on top of that big cake?"
The girl held out her finger and pointed at the surface of the cake.
"Right between the candles."
Andy took a closer look in the direction she indicated, and it turned out that those were not nuts, but all kinds of miscellaneous items, some like transparent jelly blocks, some like red jam, in short, if you don't look closely, you will think that these are the ingredients on the surface of the cake, but they are too abrupt, the shape and color are the same.
"What's that?"
The girl opened her notebook and checked them one by one.
"It's all special items, but many of them are harmful, and they actually use these treasures to decorate their cakes.... Wait, do you see that little box that glows blue? ”
As soon as she said this, Andy did see that in the corner of the cake, there was indeed a box the size of a Mantater box, which seemed to be made of metal, and there was a small lamp on it that was shining blue, making it a little eye-catching.
The music suddenly stopped, and the partygoers looked back at the two of them, and there was no shelter here, and they were immediately exposed.
Some of the partygoers ran straight towards the two, while others seemed to "slide" over.
"Buy me some time!"
The girl took out her water gun and pulled out the hose on it, and reached into her backpack to rummage for something.
There was no way, Andy could only harden it, since the power of the fist would be absorbed, he simply didn't need to attack in a normal way, after dodging the arm full of teeth waving over, Andy grabbed the party guest who came over, turned his head and threw it off the table, the party guest fell helplessly, fell to the ground and smashed a bunch of gift boxes.
The others who came later were also concocted by Andy in the same way, and one by one they fell off the table and smashed them down.
Although this alleviated the immediate problem, Andy also saw that because of this movement, more and more partygoers came over, gathered under the huge table and looked up, the streamer that had brought them up before was now gone, thanks to this, Andy didn't need to kick the partygoers who climbed up.
"That's it!"
The girl raised her water gun and spewed a stream of red viscous liquid at the partygoers not far away, and as soon as the liquid fell on the partygoers, it instantly exploded into a violent flash, followed by an explosion and a raging fire, and all the partygoers fell to the ground in an instant.
"What are you?"
Andy looked at the water gun in the girl's hand in surprise, the red viscous liquid in the water gun was so terrifying, although it was not as powerful as grenades and bombs, but it was almost the same.
"Fire oil, it's liquid fire salt, don't you know this? Looks like you're a newcomer. ”
The girl joked and walked leisurely towards the big cake.
"Finally found..."
She looked at the box, which was still glowing blue, and was thinking about how to climb on top of the cake to pick it up, when the cake in front of her suddenly moved.
Under her horrified gaze, a spherical piece of cream on the cake suddenly appeared a black cross, and then the cream piece began to turn from side to side as flexibly as an eye, and the gap between the top and bottom layers of the cake suddenly parted up and down, like a mouth, and there were even many candles in it, some of which were inserted in the upper layer and some in the lower layer, like teeth.
The strange giant one-eyed first looked at the girl in front of him, and then at Andy, I don't know if it was an illusion, Andy only felt that this funny cream eye revealed a wickedness deep into the bone marrow.
A voice suddenly appeared in Andy's brain, the sound came from a strange symbol, all of which is difficult to describe, but it was so, and the sound and symbol appeared in his mind without warning.
"Are you here for my party? In that case, I'm happy. +)”
Looking at this incomprehensible scene in front of him, Andy retreated again and again, not knowing what was going on, this huge cake suddenly "lived".
The girl trembled because she stood too close, and she asked with difficulty.
"You.... Who are you? What are you? ”
The rumbling sound came straight to my head.
"In the world I live in, everything is a party that never ends, and I am its master. +)”
The huge black cross eye suddenly noticed the wreckage of the partygoers next to it that had been destroyed by the girl using fire oil.
"Are my friends upsetting you? It's a shame that I ask them to make everyone feel welcome. +)”
The giant cake that claimed to be the master of the party smiled, and the mouth of the huge cake was as dark as an abyss, the teeth of the huge candles were intertwined up and down, and a large amount of icing sugar flowed from the mouth, like the saliva of the giant monster.
The girl clenched the water gun in her hand.
"I'm sorry.... I'm here for one purpose, can you give me that blue glowing box from you? ”
The party lord let out a weird laugh, like a large amount of cream squeezing against each other.
"So you're here for this, but your parents didn't teach you the rules, little girl of the New Sun Dynasty, the lost of the Lost Clan, you recklessly killed my friends, and you broke into my party without any gifts to ask me for my treasures, none of this made my party any more enjoyable.... On the contrary, you are acting like one of those blue spoilers who I have ordered to be exterminated, how are you going to explain that to me? +)”
The girl slowly lifted her backpack.
"I know you can be destroyed, the people of mEG have killed you and forced you to quit their territory, do you think this can do what they did? You don't really like the feeling of your party being over, right? ”
The party master's huge eyes stared at the backpack and a moment later made a noisy grunt.
"Okay, come closer, I'll give it to you. +)”
The girl cautiously walked over with her backpack, but suddenly the huge cake opened its mouth and spewed out a large number of colorful ribbons, which instantly completely wrapped the girl, and when the ribbons were released, only a gift box was left in place.
"Hahaha....+)"
A terrible laugh came out of the big cake, and the crossed eyes turned to look at Andy.
"You smell strange, like the three people who broke into here before, but unfortunately they left.... You're not leaving, are you? You can never get too many guests at a party. Oh wait, you've accepted your ticket, great. +)”
Before Andy could say anything, the streamers moved towards him, and just as he was in a hurry, the gift box next to him suddenly burst into a blinding light, and then disintegrated from the inside out.
The girl broke away from it, holding a strange thing suspended in mid-air, which appeared to be a beetle carved out of cyan stone, but at the moment the beetle was flapping its wings and flying through the air, emitting a strong blue light.
She jerked her backpack at the party master, and it flew straight into its massive mouth.
The streamers that tried to control Andy were instantly retracted, but it was too late.
With a muffled thud, like bubbles bursting in the mud, the huge cake that claimed to be the master of the party first swelled and then collapsed entirely, turning into a puddle of half-melted cream running around the table.
An extremely strong aroma began to spread, and there was a chaotic sound from under the table, and Andy looked down to see that the partygoers seemed to be in some kind of hysteria because of the death of the big cake, and some of them left the place and began to attack each other.
The girl said something that Andy didn't understand to the beetle flying in her hand, and the beetle slowly landed on her hand and became as motionless as a stone.
"It's over."
She looked tired, but she immediately rummaged through the cream and soon found the box that glowed with blue light.
"Can you hear me?"
The box flashed.
"This system can hear you, please continue, inquirer."
The girl let out a long breath and asked a question.
"I want to get out of here, get out of the Backrooms, go to the Frontrooms, what am I going to do?"
The box flashed again, and an answer was quickly given.
"The current consulter is covered by rule w, and the normal path to the antechamber is almost non-existent, if you force yourself to enter the exit to the antechamber under rule F, the contradiction of the rules will lead to the disappearance of the consulter itself, and the result calculated by the system according to the current consulter's conditions is: if the consulter wants to leave the backroom and go to the antechamber, he must first go to a door, which is located one hundred meters below the west side of the consulter, and is buried by a large number of gift boxes; The environment of the door is very similar to that of the building called the Chapel in the Frontrooms; Upon entering the area, the Counselor can proceed to the Sacrament Table to find a large white bone inscribed with words, known as the Leviathan Bone, which can be used to safely teleport the Frontrooms. ”
The girl had a happy expression on her face, but quickly regained her composure.
"What are the conditions for the use of this item?"
The box flickered a few times.
"The Leviathan's Bone is used under the condition that the user's name is written on top of it at the same time as the name of their loved one, and after 3-5 minutes, if the written name is 'real name', the item will begin to determine the user's love for each other, depending on the level of love, the item will activate at different powers, and ideally, the user will be safely transported to the Frontrooms."
The girl was stunned, and Andy felt strange when he heard the description of the use of the item.
"Love? How do you judge this? ”
The box did not answer Andy's words, and did not seem to recognize him as a consulter.
The girl was sweating as she clutched the box, and seemed to be in a state of extreme distress when she learned the news, and she looked at the box for a while and asked again.
"What happens to the other person who is written on it by the user? What are the consequences if it is not ideal? ”
The box flickered twice, giving a creepy answer.
"The loved one written by the user will be teleported to a random location in the Backrooms after the Leviathan Bone is activated, and if the degree of love is judged to be insufficient, the activation power of the Leviathan Bone will be drastically reduced, in this state, 5%-95% of the user's body tissue will be successfully teleported to the Frontrooms, and the rest will remain in place."
The girl was silent for a long time, and finally she threw the box to Andy, and she picked up a ribbon on the ground and tied it to a bulge to look like she was about to leave.
Andy stops her.
"What are you going to do after that? Go find that thing and try to get out of here? ”
The girl shook her head.
"I don't have a loved one at all, but I'll go find that thing, goodbye, stranger whose name I don't know yet."
She slid down the streamer, and Andy saw that the partygoers below were no longer trying to attack her, and she ran to the large pile of gift boxes and found the door.
Andy retracted his gaze and looked at the "talking box" in his hand, and the top priority was to figure out how to reverse his transformation.
"What can I do to keep myself from becoming a partygoer?"
The box flickered twice and began to answer his question.
"In order to reverse the assimilation caused by ptG-A secreted by the party subject, you will need to inject another substance secreted by the entity, called ptG-b, and the only way to obtain this substance is to go to the east, two hundred meters below, where there is a gap in the wall that a human body can barely pass through, and through this crack can reach a space called the Pure Land of Pleasure, where the entity is friendly and communicative, The client should go and inject ptG-b into the body within half an hour, if it is not done, the transformation of part of the body will be irreversible. ”
