Global Collapse

Chapter 736 Gugu is here with an update!

"It hurts so much, it hurts so much, it hurts so much..." The fat man's cries echoed from the seventh and eighth floors, along with an indescribable smell of barbecue.

The meaty smell was strongest in room 708.

At this moment, the corpse in room 708 had already covered its face with satisfaction, and not far away was the fat man lying on the ground, constantly groaning in pain.

The wound on his back was carefully grilled by 007 and Coco, and some parts were even charred. Fortunately, this was not a barbecue restaurant, so the charring didn't matter.

"The bleeding has almost stopped." 007 shook her hand, which was scalded red. When the red-hot axe was branding the fat man, it was inevitable that her hands would come into contact with it, and her hands were burned with several blisters from the scorching axe.

Coco next to her wasn't much better off; her hand was also badly burned.

At this moment, Coco was holding a dagger and cutting the fat man's clothes into strips to tie around his body: "There is still some bleeding, but not much, so there is no danger to his life. Just wrap it up."

The blisters on his hands were quite a nuisance, so 007 reached out and popped them. Then he looked at the fat man lying on the ground groaning and said, "Stopping the bleeding like this might carry the risk of infection and death, but we'll be out of the dungeon in a few hours, so even if we get infected, we won't die so quickly."

A large piece of skin was torn off the fat man's back, and then the exposed flesh was roasted, causing him excruciating pain. He felt that he would rather be dead.

Just as he was groaning, the screen next to him showed that the players on the fifth and sixth floors had completed another task.

The gentleman in room 504 warmly welcomed the player on that floor and challenged him. During the challenge, the gentleman in room 504 was deeply impressed by the player's courage, wisdom, and strength, and unlocked the locations of four corpses for all players on the floor.

"Another task has been completed on the floor below. This is the third task completed on the fifth and sixth floors." 007 covered his palms with his clothes.

The locations of the four newly unlocked corpses also appeared after the subtitles disappeared.

It's the drowned little man in 605, the headless little man in 804, the stuffed little man in 408... and the dismembered little man in 604.

"It's here!" The fat man also saw the dismembered body in room 604, which was exactly what their floor needed.

He excitedly tried to lift his body to take a closer look, but the movement pulled at his wound, causing him to scream in pain.

“The dismembered bodies from the lower floors have already appeared. We need to make sure the people downstairs understand that we need this type of body.” Coco finished bandaging the fat man’s wounds and tied a tight knot to prevent it from coming undone.

The bandage was wrapped quite tightly, and the fat man took a deep breath: "But the dismembered body on our floor hasn't unlocked on the screen yet. If it's unlocked, we can just carry the body around and signal to those downstairs. If it's not unlocked, it'll be a bit tricky..."

He immediately came up with a crude idea: "We already have four bodies in our floor. Let's put those four bodies next to the dismembered body on the sixth floor and sway them around above room 604. Maybe the people downstairs will understand."

"Move the body out of room 704, put the dismembered body from our floor into 704, first aligning it with the dismembered body from room 604 below to form two vertical rows, then..."

"No way." 007 interrupted the fat man before he could finish speaking.

The fat man looked up at her in confusion.

007认真看着大屏幕上已经解锁的尸体位置：“我们只知道楼下604房间中有一具分尸尸体，但不知道604下方的504房间中的尸体类型，万一504中也正好是一具分尸尸体呢？”

The fat man paused for half a second: "Then if we drag the dismembered bodies to 704, they will form a vertical triplet, and the three bodies will be eliminated together."

“But there might be more than two dismembered bodies downstairs, maybe three or four. If we eliminate two of them directly, there will be extra bodies downstairs that we can’t eliminate on our own. We can’t be 100% sure that the person downstairs is Gu Mian. If it’s someone else, then they are in danger.”

007盯了屏幕一会儿：“我们把分尸尸体放到和604相隔一个房间的804，然后把楼层里四个已经解锁位置的尸体全部放到704，四具尸体在704和703之间不断移动，等待楼下人回应。”

Of course, the response shouldn't be shouting.

In fact, at the beginning of the instance, the fat man lay on the ground and called downstairs, trying to see if his voice could penetrate the floor that even ghosts couldn't penetrate. He called for several minutes but didn't hear any sound from downstairs, so he gave up.

007 withdrew his gaze: "Sound cannot be transmitted, and special items are also disabled. The only thing that can transmit information is this screen. We will use the location of the corpse to transmit information, and I think the people downstairs will too."
"If the people below also start moving the dismembered body in room 604 back and forth, I think they should understand what we mean and be ready to eliminate it. At that time, we will put the dismembered body in room 704 and remove the other bodies in the room."

"If there's no response downstairs, we'll stay put and wait until we've unlocked more body locations before assessing the situation."

“Then let’s go move the body…” The fat man struggled to get up. Coco held him down: “If you move, the wound on your back will reopen at any time. Just stay here for the next few hours. 007 and I will go.”

At this moment, Gu Mian was wandering from room to room waiting for the next task. Unexpectedly, the challenge mechanism in this dungeon was quite lenient. He had secretly thrown most of the food under the table. When he threw away the last roast goose, the dungeon immediately declared him the winner of the match—when he won, the ghost on the other side was still sucking on the goose skin.

As he waited for his next task, he suddenly noticed that the screen next to him was constantly changing.

He looked up.

There were originally four unlocked corpses on the seventh and eighth floors, located in different rooms.

But at this moment, all four corpses were dragged to room 704, and one of the corpses was still being dragged back and forth between rooms 704 and 705.

At first glance, it looked like the player upstairs had gone mad and was dragging a corpse around.

But Gu Mian quickly understood the intention of the person upstairs.

"The higher-ups piled all the corpses they could see on their floor into room 704, next to the dismembered corpse in my room 604. Are they implying that they lack dismembered corpses?"

That's a really wild method, as wild as a fat man.

Gu Mian remembered that 603 next to 604 was also a dismembered corpse. There were four dismembered corpses on his floor. He didn't know if the upstairs was missing one or two.

If only one body is missing, the two extra dismembered corpses could be placed in the room above 604, thus eliminating them directly from the body in room 604. However, the person upstairs might be a kind soul, worried that eliminating them directly would leave extra dismembered ghosts on the fifth and sixth floors, so they moved the corpses in advance to warn the person downstairs.

Let's first check how much is missing upstairs.

Of course, Gu Mian couldn't just shout at the people upstairs to ask, so she could only communicate with them by moving the corpses.

He thought about it carefully, then packed up the dismembered ghost from 604, carried the corpse back and forth between 604 and 605 several times, and then put the corpse back into 604, indicating to the people upstairs that he understood.

After Gu Mian moved the dismembered ghost, the corpse in the upstairs room stopped moving back and forth, seemingly understanding the message Gu Mian was conveying.

Soon, the people upstairs cleared out room 704, presumably to drag the dismembered corpse inside. However, the location of the dismembered corpse upstairs had not been unlocked, so even if the people upstairs dragged the corpse into the room upstairs, Gu Mian couldn't see it; he could only wait silently.

After waiting for about seven or eight minutes, the dismembered ghost in room 604 had still not been eliminated.

"If there were two dismembered corpses upstairs, I should have been able to move them into the two rooms upstairs by now. Since there's been no movement for so long, I guess there's only one dismembered corpse upstairs, and I need to move another one to help them eliminate it."

Gu Mian went directly to room 603 next door, where there was also a dismembered corpse.

他把603房间的尸体打包起来扔到504，这样504、604、704就形成了一个同类型的竖排三连，不过现在504里还有原本的撑死鬼，得把多余的尸体拖走。

Just as Gu Mian dragged the 200-pound ghost away from 504, the dismembered ghost in the room disappeared.

"It's gone!" The fat man, who had been watching the big screen intently, widened his eyes in excitement.

The extra dismembered corpse was their only threat, but it was eliminated just like that. Now they were completely safe, it felt like a dream.

"Now the remaining corpses on our floor are all in groups of three, and they can be eliminated on their own." With the dismembered corpses eliminated, the fat man felt that his back didn't hurt as much anymore.

However, they did not immediately dispose of the remaining bodies, but instead planned to wait and see if there would be any need downstairs.

But before there was any movement downstairs, the players on the third and fourth floors made a new move.
