Deng deng deng—
The sounds from the kitchen continued.
Jiang Lin gently closed the bedroom door.
Blocking out the light from outside, and the scene from the kitchen.
At this moment, a guess had already formed in his mind.
…
Who is it?
Liao Kexin crouched beneath the bed, slowing her breathing.
She covered her mouth with her hands, her gaze following the movement of the feet in front of the bed.
From left to right, and then from right to left.
Seeing the feet open the door, her heart couldn't help but race.
—What is it looking at?
—Doesn't it know it's dangerous outside?
—Should I warn it? But what if it's a bad guy?
Liao Kexin was anxious, but she never made a sound.
Fortunately, the person quickly closed the door.
It seemed the person outside was not alerted either.
After a pause, the feet began to move again.
This time, it came to the front of the bed.
—What is it going to do?
Deng deng deng!
Deng deng deng!
In the silent night, the sounds from the kitchen were exceptionally noticeable.
So much so that the movements inside the room were almost completely masked.
Liao Kexin couldn't see what it was doing, nor could she hear any noise.
Only the sound of her own heartbeat, dong dong dong, echoed in her ears.
Rapid, and panicked.
Just like the emotions of the heart's owner at this moment.
It felt like a long time had passed, and yet it felt like only a short while.
Suddenly, small clusters of blue flames appeared before her eyes.
Forming strange characters.
【Do you believe in immortals in this world?】
Immortals?!
Liao Kexin's expression froze, immortals…
She believed, she wanted to believe.
How wonderful it would be if there really were immortals.
This, this is magic, isn't it?
After pausing for a few seconds, the clusters of ghostly fire changed again.
Forming a new line of text.
【Do you want to leave this place? I can take you wherever you want to go.】
Pat.
Tears fell onto the floor.
Liao Kexin bit her lip tightly, wanting to!
She wanted to get out!
But it was too dangerous outside.
There were so many terrifying things… If she were discovered, it would be terrible!
【Believe me, okay?】
【Believe in the power of immortals.】
As the ghostly fire transformed again, the sky-blue bed slowly lifted, and the moonlight outside gradually fell onto the bedroom floor.
Illuminating Jiang Lin, dressed in white, and also illuminating the small, tear-stained, dirty face beneath the bed.
Jiang Lin, lifting the bed with one hand, reached out to her with the other.
【I will protect you out.】
“...!”
Liao Kexin wiped her eyes and nodded vigorously without hesitation.
…
This time, Jiang Lin did not arrive so abruptly.
He had also previously instilled a sense of security and mystery in Liao Kexin's heart.
Therefore, when he held her and flew out the window, he maintained his original strength.
The blood moon hung high in the sky, and the residential complex was shrouded in darkness.
Building number nine, each one like a haunted house.
Liao Kexin was about to look when Jiang Lin covered her eyes.
"When I say it's okay, you can open your eyes again."
Liao Kexin pursed her lips tightly and nodded.
This time, although still afraid, there was more hope, more trust.
A possibility.
…
"Oh my god! The streamer is so kind! I want that too (✪w✪)"
"Okay, streamer, I won't open my eyes until you say it's okay."
"Are you guys showing off? Sit down quickly, don't block my view of the streamer!"
In the live stream room.
A group of viewers watched this scene and inexplicably became excited.
They felt that the whole picture was not as terrifying anymore.
"I also believe in immortals."
"Streamer is forever god! ヾ(゚∀゚ゞ) Go—"
…
After flying out from the 29th floor,
Jiang Lin did not stop and flew directly towards the community entrance.
Along the way, blood bats appeared again.
Swarming out of various windows, their eyes blood-red.
Like assassins in the night.
But this time, as soon as they flew in front of Jiang Lin, they were blocked by an invisible barrier.
—This was the power of the immortal she believed in.
Able to fly, able to cast spells, able to… fight monsters.
Pudada!
Pudada!
The blood bats continuously slammed against the barrier, trying to break through.
Liao Kexin nervously clutched the skirt she was wearing and buried her head in Jiang Lin's arms.
She remembered Jiang Lin's words, not to open her eyes, not to look.
Jiang Lin ignored the blood bats and flew forward.
As they approached the community entrance, a sudden change occurred.
The lights in all the dark buildings lit up simultaneously.
At this moment, every room became 2901.
From the windows of the rooms, tall men leaned out.
He looked like a butcher, holding a cleaver in his hand.
His face, his hair, his clothes were all covered in blood.
The man's expression was grim, and as he looked towards the community entrance, he roared:
"Liao Kexin, where are you running to?!"
"Liao Kexin, where are you running to?!"
"Liao Kexin, where are you running to?!"
The men in every room looked the same, with the same expression.
Holding cleavers, shouting the same words.
In the empty night, they formed a neat and eerie chorus.
In an instant, Liao Kexin's eyes snapped open.
Her pupils constricted, and her entire body tensed.
—Even though Jiang Lin had already blocked her hearing and sight before this.
But as long as she wanted to, she could hear and see.
"Don't be afraid."
Jiang Lin's voice came from above, still calm.
However, at this moment, no matter what he said, Liao Kexin couldn't hear.
She stared blankly at the sky, her eyes hollow and despairing.
The same sentence echoed repeatedly in her mind:
—We've been discovered, we can't escape!
—We've been discovered, we can't escape!
At the same time, the community gate began to rise, rise, and ascend into the sky.
Like a cage from which there was no escape.
Jiang Lin tried to attack several times, but indeed could not break through.
Dong! Dong! Dong!
The ground began to shake.
Jiang Lin turned around.
A giant had appeared in the community at some point—it was that man.
He was tall, wearing a dark apron.
Like a butcher, his whole body was stained with blood.
Holding a cleaver in his hand, he walked towards them step by step.
Opening his mouth, he sucked them into his giant maw.
Darkness enveloped everything.
The live stream room went black again.
…
"Damn it! We just can't get past, can we!"
"Looping again. If this were a nightmare, I'd be scared for a year!"
"Ahhh—let them out! Damn it (〃>皿<)!"
The viewers in the live stream room were anxious.
They wished they could step forward to break open the community gate and let the streamer and the girl leave easily.
Some even couldn't help but punch the air, "Ah, hit, hit, hit!"
"What's going on with this little girl? How do we pass this level! Should we call the police?!"
Because the key information was directly mosaicked, the viewers did not clearly hear Liao Kexin's name.
Nor did they clearly see the faces of anyone other than the streamer.
"If he just knocked her out, would that help?" a group of viewers began to discuss.
Wanting to help the streamer.
"With the streamer's ability, even if he didn't knock her out, he could still block her five senses."
"So the key should be how to break through the girl's fear."
