Free Web NovelLittle Silver Flower never thought that her good luck would one day be disliked.
Although unwilling, it eventually switched places with Golden Yuanbao.
In fact, it was also impatient with this kind of comfort!
Really, this kind of luck was completely unnecessary.
As soon as Golden Yuanbao took the field, the effect was immediate!
After only a couple of steps, Mingxi suddenly stumbled, subconsciously reaching out to steady herself against the wall.
The moment her palm touched the wall, she felt something was off.
Her hand felt as if it was sinking into a quagmire, slowly descending.
And she couldn't pull it back.
“Giggle giggle...”
“Jie jie jie...”
In a flash, the originally gray stone wall transformed into a ghastly white wall made of human bones, with skull-shaped lamps hanging crisscrossed on the bone wall.
There were quite a few of them.
Those hollow eyes glowed with an eerie green light, extremely unsettling.
“Jie jie jie...”
The skull lamps began to sway from side to side, their uneven upper and lower jaws clattering together, emitting a harsh and unpleasant laughter.
A chilling wind swept through.
“Jie jie jie... Little brothers... We have guests...”
A skull hanging at the very top of the wall began to speak human language.
This sudden transformation.
Not to mention Mingxi, whose right hand was forced into the bone wall, even the viewers watching the live broadcast were startled by the sudden unfolding events.
“Scared this old man half to death!”
“What is this? A human bone wall?”
“Are they real human bones?”
“Obviously not possible! Either artificial bones or virtual imaging technology.”
“Whether it’s real or fake, a normal wall suddenly turning into a bone wall is extremely horrifying. It’s amazing that Mingxi can still keep a straight face at a time like this.”
“Her face is blurred, how can you tell she’s keeping a straight face?”
“Heh, a man’s sixth sense, is that not allowed?”
A man’s sixth sense was indeed quite accurate; although Mingxi was trapped, she wasn't panicking.
She calmly stood before the bone wall, looking up at the skull that was laughing eerily and could speak, and asked curiously, “Are you a Specter?”
Ye Linyu had not explained what a Specter truly was.
Mingxi initially thought they were NPCs played by humans or pet beasts, but upon seeing these skulls, her mind was suddenly opened.
Aside from utilizing spatial folding technology, this Dream City should also combine virtual games, pet beast skills, and high-level tools. The scenes and NPCs here could be physical entities, or very likely virtual existences formed by pet beasts, tools, and virtual technology.
In other words, the 'Specter' in Ye Linyu's words could be anything.
“Jie jie jie, I am Aota, the messenger of joy and courage.”
“So it’s Mr. Aota. Can you tell me any clues about the eight flavor fruit?” She seemed completely unconcerned about her trapped arm.
“Jie jie jie...” The skull lamp Aota chuckled slyly, then changed his tone: “No! You! Can’t! ~”
The next second.
White bone hands emerged from the wall, gripping Mingxi's arms like white snakes!
“Guest, please stay and keep us company!”
“We will surely entertain you well~”
“Hehe~”
Goodness, the entire wall seemed to have come alive, the white bones fiercely pulling at Mingxi, as if to drag her into the bone wall.
“Emerald Green, try using Absorption on them, can you?”
Emerald Green understood. Its grass-like hair on its head quickly grew, piercing into the bone wall like needles and thread.
The next second, the active bone wall seemed to freeze, no longer moving.
“Jin, Jinjin.”
It was effective, but somewhat different from a Transcendent creature.
Mingxi understood. If Emerald Green could absorb it, but it wasn't a Transcendent creature, then it was most likely some kind of tool.
It might also be combined with virtual game technology.
Mingxi thought for a moment, then carefully observed her surroundings.
A smile touched her lips.
“Golden Yuanbao, go attack Aota. Cripple, kill, or shatter it, as you please.”
Before she finished speaking, the bone wall facing her began to move again, and with increasing intensity, the pulling force on her hands also grew stronger.
However, for Mingxi, these forces were not enough to shake her.
After Golden Yuanbao began its attack, Mingxi continued:
“Emerald Green, try using Death Entanglement on all the skulls.”
Death Entanglement could control groups; Emerald Green had already tried it in the Time Realm, but releasing it on a group would consume a lot of energy.
However, Emerald Green had the All Things Grow characteristic.
They had already tested that when energy rapidly depleted, the probability of All Things Grow's first ability being triggered would increase, basically reaching 50%.
That is to say, if energy value rapidly depletes by less than 20%, there's a 50% chance to restore all energy.
Basically, releasing Death Entanglement on five or more targets, plus Living Extinction's first ability, would absolutely meet the trigger conditions for All Things Grow's first ability.
Unfortunately, these skulls were not Transcendent creatures, nor even living beings. Let alone Living Extinction, Death Entanglement couldn't even absorb life energy.
So Mingxi's goal was only to trigger Death Entanglement's slow state.
“Little Silver Flower, Lan Yue, both of you move to the fourth skull from my left and right sides, respectively.” She said, winking at the two beasts.
The four immediately acted on their own.
Black Pearl, who was obediently squatting in a bubble, waited for a long time without receiving her own command.
She tilted her small head, looking at her master, “As?”
What about me, baby?
Mingxi: “...”
She helplessly touched the tip of her nose: “Black Pearl, protect Lan Yue.”
“As.”
Black Pearl clenched her little fists, happily blowing out one bubble after another, controlling them to Float around Lan Yue, ready to envelop Lan Yue at any time.
Lan Yue: “...” Did it need a little baby beast to protect it?
Never mind, as long as its Beast Tamers and Black Pearl were happy.
“Jie jie!!”
The skull calling itself Aota paid no attention to Golden Yuanbao's attack, laughing more rampantly and unpleasantly.
But Golden Yuanbao was not angered by this; it was equally calm.
In sync with Mingxi, it clearly understood its Beast Tamers' objective.
Its Beast Tamers had said this was called—
Xiang Zhuang's sword dance, intended for Pei Gong.
Death Entanglement enveloped all the skulls, and their swaying motion visibly slowed down.
Mingxi's gaze quickly swept over them.
“Left one. Right seven.”
“Up three. Down six.” frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓
Little Silver Flower and Lan Yue, who were always ready, immediately shot towards their respective targets like arrows!
Teleportation! Dragon Tail!
Leg Whip! Ice Spike!
“Crack!”
“Crack!”
...
Four crisp bone-cracking sounds rang out almost simultaneously. freeωebnovēl.c૦m
Four skull bone lamps shattered at once.
“No——”
The arrogant Aota could no longer laugh. ➤ NоvеⅠight ➤ (Read more on our source) After a loud cry, it rolled down from the wall.
Grumble grumble.
It rolled to Mingxi's feet.
Mingxi pulled out her right hand, which was now free to move, and squatted down with a smile, facing Aota, who was rapidly changing shape.
“Hi~ o(*￣▽￣*)ブ Dear Mr. Aota, can you tell me about the eight flavor fruit now?”
