The world is broken, the cubs mend it

Chapter 147 Mermaid Boss: Card

The three continued to move towards the next target. After entering the room, each person was responsible for an area, leaving no blind spots untouched.

Chi Xia was the most experienced in thorough searching. He looked under the bed, under the cabinets, and even on the carpet, leaving nothing out.

"It's a shame you don't become a private investigator, Xiaochi."

Lin Che, who was standing in front of the bookcase and carefully flipping through the books inside, couldn't help but sigh when the carpet under his feet was suddenly lifted up by someone.

Fortunately, he reacted quickly and grabbed the wooden partition of the bookcase, so his head did not hit the ground.

"Are you going to kill me, friend?"

"Sorry, I was so focused on looking that I didn't see you standing there."

Chi Xia touched the back of his head awkwardly. A card had fallen from somewhere. There was only a number seven on the card with a gold-plated pattern.

“You really have endless energy. Let me see what this is.” Lin Che also leaned over to look at the card in his hand: “This should be the clue, right?”

Chi Xia: "A number, what does it mean?"

"Will it be the seventh day? The highest record of the dungeon is the sixth day. Without the protection of the BOSS, we won't be able to make it past the seventh day."

Lin Che had been observing this dungeon in the player area, and found that a group of players died collectively on the night of the sixth day.

"What have you experienced in this instance before?"

Bai Qi felt that it shouldn't be that simple, and there might be more than one clue.

Lin Che recounted the nights he had spent here: “If the spine is really on the seventh night, it will be difficult for us to get it, and this number is not necessarily a clue related to the spine.”

"You're not wrong."

Chi Xia rubbed his temples. Listening to his description, he could feel the danger of the night in the dungeon.

Most of the clues in the dungeon are to tell players how to avoid the BOSS. It is not yet known to which side this number is for.

"Isn't it about Dad?"

Yuanyuan took the card from his hand, held it up and looked at it carefully, sounding very disappointed.

"Just not sure, maybe it's related."

Bai Qi put the card away and took her to the next room.

Everyone said that it might not be the case, as it also includes the escape from the seventh night, which doesn’t sound very easy to clear.

This clue gave us a start, and the rest seemed much easier to find.

Chi Xia found the remaining three cards in the remaining rooms, in the space between the album and the photos, on top of the ceiling chandelier, and under the flower pot on the balcony.

No one here is better suited to finding things than him.

"Zero, nine, two, could this be some kind of code?"

"It could also be a code, or something we need to calculate."

Lin Che sorted the four cards, trying to figure out the pattern.

But the positioning of this copy is obviously not logical, it is more horror-oriented, and there are not many rules to follow.

Except for the bedrooms where the players lived, all the rooms in the castle were checked carefully.

It was almost dark when the three of them prepared to leave, and the players gathered in the lobby again.

This time, Chen Feng and Chen Qi blocked the way out and asked them to bring everyone to the island.

"You're just leaving like that? We're a whole, shouldn't you take us to the other side together?"

"Sorry, this is not for us to decide."

Lin Che never liked conflicts with others and was always polite in his speech.

He was only able to go to the island thanks to the other two people, and this matter was really not something he could decide.

"You can't come to my house. My dad doesn't like people."

Yuanyuan was not frightened by the two men's strong attitude. She had seen too many people like them here.

"You can either stay here and share the hardship with us, or take us with you. It's your choice!"

Chen Feng's eyes deliberately avoided the BOSS. He didn't want to conflict with the BOSS unless necessary.

I don’t know what abilities they have that could make the boss look at them differently.

"I have difficulty making choices. What do you think I should do?"

Chi Xia was least afraid of people who used moral blackmail, and he quietly clenched his hands in his pockets.

Wang Yu and Qiao Qiao on the side just glanced over here, knowing very well that they would not bring other players to the island.

Moral blackmail doesn't work in a dungeon. People will only be willing to cooperate if there is value.

"You want us to help you choose?"

Chen Feng understood what he meant. He meant that if he didn't accept the toast, he would have to drink a forfeit.

He raised his hand and was about to rub his fist when Chi Xia swung his fist at his face, knocking him to the ground headfirst.

"You just came out of the low-level dungeon not long ago? Do you really think you are a piece of cake?"

"you……"

When Chen Qi saw him knock the man down with one punch, his arrogance instantly died down by half, and he didn't dare to step forward to provoke him again.

"let's go!"

Chi Xia was too lazy to look at them anymore. He didn't know how many nights they could survive like this.

When the three returned to the island, the moon was already hanging in the night sky with only a few scattered stars.

"Do you remember these numbers?" Bai Qi placed the cards in front of Vitalia one by one.

"No…"

Vitalia shook her head, but she felt vaguely that something important had been forgotten.

"You have some time to think about it. We'll go look outside the castle tomorrow."

Bai Qi was not in a hurry, as they still had five days to look for it.

I hope I can find it before the copy ends, otherwise after they leave, I don’t know how long it will take for the little guy to find it alone.

"Why do you want to help me?"

Vitalia thought they were just joking about helping yesterday and didn't think they were serious.

"It's not a pleasant feeling to be trapped here. Didn't you help us? Without you, we wouldn't be able to leave alive."

Bai Qi had never thought that he would develop feelings for his boss. He just helped in any way he could and didn't always think about taking advantage of him.

"Yes, you guys helped us, too. If Yuanyuan hadn't shown mercy last time, we would have died long ago."

Chi Xia also remembered this kindness in his heart and hoped to leave with them this time.

"Thank...thank you..."

It was difficult for Vitalia to say thank you to humans, but his thanks were only for the two people in front of him.

This was one of the rare times he felt kindness from a human being.

"Dad, are we going to be able to leave here soon?"

Yuanyuan was tired after rolling around in the castle all day, so he lay limply on his father's tail, happily looking at the moon in the sky.

"perhaps…"

Vitalia gently poked the child's cheek and looked at the ghosts on the island. They seemed to have noticed something and slowly approached the father and daughter.

"..."

Lin Che glanced at them as they lowered their heads and pulled at the grass on the ground. He was actually quite cowardly and afraid of trouble.

But considering the last copy, the BOSS did help him a lot.

If Vitalia's spine was really related to the Seventh Night, he didn't know if he had the courage to repay the favor.
