90. Dense Forest Frontier

Chapter 301

With the help of Spades' whip, Bai Liu made it through the fog without encountering any monsters.

The rainforest, which had been filled with trees, was filled with a grey mist, trees were burning on a large scale, the air was filled with ashes from the burning flames, and the sky was so grey that only a faint light came through, making it difficult to distinguish between night and day.

A strong, pungent smell of exploding gunpowder hits you, and the moment you open your mouth you can taste the bitterness of carbon.

Tang Erda choked and coughed twice, covering his mouth and nose, "What has happened to this war world in the hour or so we've been out?"

"The war world doesn't flow at the same rate as time outside." Bai Liu glanced around the room. "The timeline here fast-forwarded to the end of the Great War after we left."

Liu Jiayi waved her hand at the tip of her nose as she tilted her head towards Bai Liu: "- is that the node Elena was talking about, the one where the whole crew died after the explosion?"

"Usually, at these points, a good horror game will have some really exciting climaxes." Bai Liu looks out into the mist-filled rainforest, "like a big chase."

Tang Erda was stunned: "How can there be a chase? Isn't everyone at this node dead and about to enter the next seven-day cycle?"

Liu Jiayi took the poison from the back of her waist and took two guarded steps back, her eyes narrowing slightly: "It is because all these people are dead that this is the most dangerous place to be before entering the next seven-day cycle."

Bai Liu looked straight into the rainforest as if something was about to emerge: "Because it means that, apart from us players, this war replica map is full of monsters, the living dead."

Tang Erda was also alert, pausing before drawing his gun and glancing back at Spades, who had been silent the whole way next to him.

Spades looks at Tang Erda silently, his hand on the whip handle at the back of his waist, his fingers seemingly twitching a little, as if he is still trying to stop Tang Erda from drawing his gun.

Tang Erda: "......"

As if sensing the silent exchange behind him, Bai Liu glances back at Spades with a flippant glance.

Spades stiffened inexplicably and silently turned the whip handle in the direction of Tang Erda.

Tang Erda breathed a sigh of relief before he dared to pull his gun out and aim it at the grey mist rainforest that kept shaking as if something was about to emerge.

But the rainforest just shuddered and nothing ever emerged, and all that could be heard was the crackling of burning leaves and branches.

As Tang Erda looked suspiciously at Bai Liu, Spades suddenly threw a whip from Bai Liu's side and slammed it into the ground, denting it and splitting it open.

The dirt splattered to either side of the ground along the blossoming pattern, spilling not only dirt but a few fingertips as Tang Erda looked from the Spades' smashed pattern to the ground and stared.

Buried in the grain beneath the ground were countless blown apart, white and bloodstained and gunpowder-stained shattered limbs - half heads, hands with wrist bones exposed, writhing waists, all with their own severed mouths aimed, like eyes, at Bai Liu them.

The pieces, which could not be pieced together into humanoid limbs at all, squirmed densely in the mud and came closer as if they had sniffed out prey, hiding underground.
