This was the most amazing ability in an apocalyptic world.
Lin Sanjiu rushed over and grabbed the ex-guard's arm. When she pulled him out from under the table, the latter squawked in fear. Lin Sanjiu did not explain but pushed him toward Bohemia and yelled, "Take him with you. I'm going to find Puppeteer!"
As soon as Lin Sanjiu said the word "Puppeteer", Bohemia's heart sank like a balloon that had been pricked. "Is Lord Puppeteer here as well?"
"Didn't you throw the dress on his head?"
Bohemia looked even more confused than Lin Sanjiu. Amidst the tremors, Lin Sanjiu still managed to think for a few seconds, "N-no … I wouldn't dare to …"
Now was not the time for them to sit down and talk. Lin Sanjiu scanned the area with her eyes and finally spotted Puppeteer amidst the swaying, collapsing, and mending environment. Magus had temporarily taken over Puppeteer's body, so it was obvious that Puppeteer was not used to the rapid changes in his surroundings. His steps were clumsy, and he was still clutching the book in his arms. If it weren't for Hei Zeji, who was standing firmly on the spot, pushing Puppeteer away and pulling him closer to avoid danger, Puppeteer would have been swallowed by the ever-changing pocket dimension.
"Wait for me," Lin Sanjiu ordered. She leaped onto the table that the ex-guard was hiding under. Using it as a springboard, Lin Sanjiu leaped toward Puppeteer and yelled, "Grab my hand!"
At the very least, Magus was capable of doing this.
As soon as the skinny hand tightened its grip on Lin Sanjiu, Lin Sanjiu pulled it back and wrapped her arm around Puppeteer's chest. Hugging him, Lin Sanjiu dashed toward Bohemia. The latter's pale face was especially eye-catching. Instinctively, she shielded the ex-guard from Lin Sanjiu and stammered, "Don't just stand there. Let's go!" Lin Sanjiu patted Bohemia with her left arm and said, "Don't just stand there. Let's go!"
It was only when her robe fell off Magus' "head" that Bohemia realized what was wrong with Puppeteer. As soon as she regained her senses, she ran after Lin Sanjiu. As she ran, she yelled, "I know what happened!"
"What happened?"
"After we parted, before I even reached the tool room, that red-faced fly took the opportunity to ambush me. How could I let him catch me?" "After I ran away, the paint can kept chasing after me … When I was running, I saw a strange man covered in a bed sheet. He was walking with one hand and one foot. He looked so clumsy, so I … I … I …" Gu Jun did not know how to respond to Gu Jun's question, but she did not know how to respond to Gu Jun.
Her voice trailed off at this point. Lin Sanjiu was worried that Bohemia might be pinched by a crack, so she quickly turned around and saw that Bohemia's mouth was pouting. She looked like she was going to cry at any moment. "I … I kicked him down and put my robe on him."
'Okay, this is another thing that Puppeteer doesn't need to know. '
Just as Lin Sanjiu sighed inwardly, she heard the NPC shouting from between the white trees not far away, "I'm here!"
The two of them carried their human luggage and hurriedly jumped into the thicket of white trees. This place was much more stable than the place where the pocket dimension was invaded. At least, they didn't have to pay attention to the deep hole under their feet. The NPC who had lost both his legs was sitting next to a white tree. His face was covered with sweat, but Wei Xing was nowhere to be seen. "I didn't expect such a big reaction … What? Did he come back to life? That's great! It's not too late to carry on with our plan! "
Bohemia threw the ex-guard in front of Fatty while he was still in a daze. It took him a few seconds to realize what he was going to do, but he did not forget to turn around and ask for Lin Sanjiu's assurance, "You guys … You guys will get me out of here, right?"
"Of course," Lin Sanjiu said with all her sincerity. She still had some sympathy for him.
The ex-guard was still worried even after he got the assurance from Lin Sanjiu. He said in a low voice, "Well … I think the hidden passage might be the pass. This is the only item in the hospital that can be bought at the same price as the selling price. It's not like the organs, which are sold at double the selling price … "
His voice was very soft. It was intermittent in the rumbling and trembling room, so it was hard for anyone to hear him clearly. However, the NPC seemed to know what he was going to say after he heard the first part of his sentence. He waved his hand and said, "Yes, yes! I'm going to get the points. You can continue! "
The NPC reached out his hand to the branch of the white tree and looked at Lin Sanjiu, "Who should I give the points to?"
Lin Sanjiu was a wanted criminal, so it was pointless for her to take the points. Her identity as Bohemia was in danger, so naturally, she could only give the points to one person. Lin Sanjiu pushed Puppeteer forward and said, "Give it to him!"
The NPC didn't care who the points were given to. He seemed to want to complete the "handover" process as soon as possible so that he could form a connection with the room in the hospital. "Puppeteer?" Lin Sanjiu tried to identify the NPC. Strangely enough, regardless of whether he had a head or not, or how well he covered his face, the NPC could still recognize him. "Here you go!"
Lin Sanjiu was afraid that the points from a dead man would not be enough. Lin Sanjiu took a step forward and was about to urge the NPC to give her more points when she noticed that the notebook that Magus was holding in her arms had fallen to the ground. Lin Sanjiu picked it up and glanced at it subconsciously. The words that she wanted to say to the NPC were now stuck in her throat.
Her handwriting was crooked and disjointed, just like a child learning how to write for the first time. It occupied a large piece of white paper. Magus had spent a lot of effort just now, but she didn't write much. There were only seven words, "Someone is running away … Don't trust him."
The first three words were probably written by Magus not long after she sat down to tell Lin Sanjiu what had happened. Magus wrote the last three words to warn Lin Sanjiu about what had happened when Bohemia ran past Puppeteer. Magus wrote the last three words to warn Lin Sanjiu.
The person that she warned Lin Sanjiu not to trust could only be one person.
Lin Sanjiu tossed the notebook aside and stretched her right hand forward as fast as lightning. At that moment, the NPC was muttering, "I'll give you a few more points." Just as her right hand was about to reach Puppeteer's collar, the NPC grabbed Puppeteer's robe and flung him toward the branches of the white tree. Countless twigs that looked like sharp antlers of a deer stood erect in the air, waiting for the right moment to pierce through Magus' body. Magus did not have the time to react. Puppeteer's body tilted and fell toward the twigs.
Lin Sanjiu's fingertip brushed past Puppeteer's shirt. Bohemia was further away from him, so it was even more impossible for her to catch him in time. Just as Puppeteer was about to fall into the branches, an idea came to her mind. A long shadow of a whip appeared in her palm. The [Tornado Whip]'s effect had already been taken away by the hospital as collateral, but the whip itself was still there. Like a rope, it coiled around Puppeteer's waist and pulled him back to Lin Sanjiu's side.
Before Lin Sanjiu could catch him, Bohemia had already leaped out from the side. She lifted her hand and tore off a string of beads. Then, she threw the beads at the NPC. When Lin Sanjiu turned around, she realized that the NPC had also grabbed the former guard by the collar and pushed him toward a few sharp white branches. Fatty raised his hand and released the former guard. Seizing the opportunity, the latter fell to the ground and crawled back to Lin Sanjiu's side.
After pulling the two of them back by a hair's breadth, when they looked up again, the NPC had already retreated far behind the white thicket. Even though he had lost both his legs, it did not affect his movement at all. With both of his hands on the ground, he raised his upper body and nimbly retreated about ten meters away in just a few seconds.
"What are you doing?" Lin Sanjiu yelled, "Have you been lying to us? Do you want to kill us? "
"I didn't lie to you," the NPC laughed as he huffed and huffed. He stuck himself to the side of a white tree, and the sharp branches even dug into his flesh. "Everything I've told you is true. I just left out a part of it … "
Magus struggled to stand on her feet and pointed to where the NPC was. Lin Sanjiu had no idea what he meant.
"This hospital can no longer withstand the two invading dungeons." The NPC gestured behind them with his thick chin. "Once I consume some of its power and take control of it, it will inevitably become weaker … How can it still resist the two dungeons? Don't you want your friend to escape? "
Lin Sanjiu stared at him blankly.
"If you want your friend to escape, you have to give me, the hospital, enough power to devour the two Pocket Dimensions." The NPC licked his lips. When he opened his mouth, his tiny teeth flashed. "If you want power, you need nutrients. If you don't want to sacrifice the headless man, it's fine. Isn't this the first time you met that Gamer? Give him to me, and you and your friend can leave this place. "
