It's not too much to say that a beauty is a little bit stronger

"Bang bang bang!!"

The moment the hour hand moved to the number nine, there was a sudden knock on the door.

The quiet village of Aledi seemed to have been set on fire and became frenzied. Through the crack in the door, one could vaguely sense the light of fireworks outside.

The crackling sound of firecrackers filled the Aledi Village. Xiao Huai raised his eyes and just glanced outside the door.

The teacup was picked up and put down again, and he took a deep breath.

As if smelling something, he stood up and walked to the door.

A woman's voice began to be heard from outside the door: "Do you have any rooms left? Please take us in."

"Do you have any rooms left? Please, open the door and take us in!"

The voice gradually became frantic, with faint laughter in the pleading voice.

It seems like laughing and playing.

Xiao Huai stretched out his hand, and the moment he touched the door, a vigilant voice came from behind him.

"What do you want to do!" Sun Xingye stared at Xiao Huai with wide eyes. He just came out to check how the witches' night walk was going.

I had no idea that there was already someone in the hall.

I never expected that Xiao Huai...actually wanted to open the door.

"Azhuolang, are you crazy? You know it's witch night now, do you want to open the door and kill us?"

Xiao Huai lowered his head. After a moment, he said softly:

"No."

"Ah? What do you mean?" Sun Xingye frowned. After a long time, he got such an answer?

Some brave players opened the door one after another. After all, Sun Xingye's shout just now did arouse the curiosity of many people.

He turned around and looked at Sun Xingye. There were already five or six players who had just come out standing next to him.

There seemed to be an invisible boundary between them.

Xiao Huai is at one end and the players are at the other.

Xiao Huai: "It's not a witch walking at night."

The moment he finished speaking, he gently pushed the door open.

Everyone opened their eyes wide in an instant, fear surging into their hearts like a tide. They wanted to flee back to the room, but their legs trembled uncontrollably and they were unable to take a step. They were so nervous that they closed their eyes.

Can……

The imagined horror did not ensue.

Outside the door... is nothingness.

It is true nothingness.

They never imagined that they would see nothingness with their own eyes.

Everything outside the door is dark, and time seems to have stopped outside the door.

No wind, no shadow, no sand, no light.

There were no buildings or anything in sight.

But the sound came from all directions over and over again.

The women's laughter, cheers, sounds of running away, and sounds of begging for mercy.

"Ahhh! Damn, what the hell is this place!"

The players were so frightened that they started screaming, "Can you please close the door? Please close the door."

If Xiao Huai takes one more step forward, he will completely disappear in the void and darkness.

In the dim hall, the players shone their flashlights on him, but he was like a shadow, only staying there for a moment.

It can be seen but not touched.

Xiao Huai turned slightly, his eyes passing through the crowd and falling on the door of the room he and Lu Yuanshi were staying in.

Lu Yuanshi was not in the crowd.

Maybe he's asleep.

Why should I think about him?

Really boring.

Xiao Huai withdrew his gaze little by little, and the light fell into his eyes, turning into the afterglow of the setting sun.

He whispered, "Why should you be afraid? They're all gone now, aren't they?"

Those voices are all fake.

These illusory ghosts cannot cause any harm to them. What use are they other than scaring them mentally?

As Xiao Huai took a step towards the door, all the players' hearts jumped.

They saw Xiao Huai disappear into the darkness.

Sun Xingye's face looked extremely bad. He could vaguely feel that there must be important clues outside the door.

But his cautious instinct made him afraid to move forward. Facing the unknown darkness, he didn't even dare to move.

While everyone was still in a stalemate, a slender figure passed through the crowd. Before everyone could react, he had followed Xiao Huai's footsteps and disappeared from sight.

That person was Lu Yuanshi.

Lu Zhi, who was hiding nearby, could no longer bear it. He ran out of the door with a flushed face and disappeared into the endless void.

In just one minute, two players followed the NPC out the door.

Cheng Shan looked anxious. "I don't care. I have to go check it out. There are so few clues to the collective mission. Maybe we won't find it before all of us are punished... If people's hearts collapse, the real nightmare will begin."

He strode forward, and Sun Xingye frowned and cursed inwardly.

"Damn newcomer...ah! Never mind!" He sighed, but still followed forward.

Since he had promised the president what to do, Sun Xingye would always find a way to complete it.

No matter what the process will be.

Keeping one's word... is the only rule they follow when killing foxes.

---

In the void, every time Xiao Huai took a step, he could feel countless people passing by him, and some "people" even reached out and touched his skin.

It's just that their hands tend to pass through his body and they can't really touch him.

Xiao Huai walked forward aimlessly. He heard the sound of firecrackers getting louder and louder, and the crying getting louder and louder.

But in fact, he knew that it was not the sound of firecrackers.

The smell of gunpowder he smelled was a smell unique to the battlefield.

What they thought were fireworks and firecrackers were not fireworks and firecrackers at all, but the destruction before the war.

Why did the desert kingdom disappear?

Why did the soul worm say those words in the hallucination he saw - "Live, you must live..."

"What a nice view--"

"Here...we can't grow up."

"Here... they don't grow up."

He lowered his head and recited the words.

Why can't they grow up? Because of the war, they have no chance to survive and cannot live.

So beautiful? Why is it so beautiful?

Because the children had never seen war and did not understand what it meant for something to fall from the sky.

They didn't know that it was a weapon that could take their lives.

They don't know because they have only seen the good side of the world.

They don’t know... In fact, in this world, people can easily lose their humanity because of interests.

There are no windows in the bedrooms of the Aledi Hotel, all the beds are surrounded by rails, and a living space is built underground. Why?

Very simple.

The Aledi Hotel was not originally a hotel, but a refuge.

Children can sleep in beds with guardrails, and adults are willing to guard them outside. As long as the children are alive, there is hope.

But war is ruthless and it cruelly reaps the lives of everyone.

This place ultimately could not escape the fate of destruction; everything collapsed, leaving behind only ruins.

And those glowing soul bugs.

But why do soul worms appear?

He raised his eyes and looked into the distance.

I'm afraid all this has something to do with witches.
