Pumpkin Route had been completely destroyed by the series of battles. Even though it had been a few hours, there were still mountains of rocks and thick soil. From time to time, there would be a few deep cracks that tore through the ground. The houses and shops along the way rolled down the cracks.
Not only were the pocket dimension creatures nowhere to be found, even the merchandise was gone. Lin Sanjiu was a little disappointed. Her clothes were so tattered that they were almost unrecognizable. Initially, she wanted to search through the ruins to find some clothes, but now, she had no choice but to give up.
"How nice would it be if you had a hoodie? I wouldn't have to go through so much trouble," Lin Sanjiu grumbled softly from the hot ironing on her head.
As his legs were too short, it was inconvenient for him to walk. The cat doctor lay on Lin Sanjiu's head. His body swayed from side to side as Lin Sanjiu crossed the cracks and climbed the rocks. Sometimes, he even had to use his claws to grab Lin Sanjiu's hair to maintain his balance.
On the other hand, AYU, whose body had obviously grown in size, was struggling to keep up with Lin Sanjiu. Compared to her queen, this Soul was much less talkative. She would occasionally cast a gloomy glance at Lin Sanjiu, but she wasn't a travel companion that Lin Sanjiu had to worry about.
Usually, they would only need ten to twenty minutes to cover the distance. However, since there was no more road, it took them almost half an hour to cover the distance. Finally, they saw the roof of the next arena in the distance.
"I wonder what kind of attraction it will be …"
Lin Sanjiu, who was standing on top of a rock, looked away and sighed. Then, she leaped forward and landed on top of another rock in front of her. She used her hands to hold onto the rock and quickly climbed down through the potholes on the rock. She landed on the ground with a soft thud.
As they were further away from the battleground, the road ahead looked much smoother. There were only some rocks that had been thrown over from afar. They had smashed into the road. Lin Sanjiu quickened her pace and quickly passed through them. However, when she was about to reach the arena, she suddenly stopped.
It was already late at night. The darkness of the night had dyed the sky a dull, inky blue. The moon had long since disappeared behind the thick clouds. Only a few stars and the signboard of the amusement park in the distance still shone faintly in the night.
There seemed to be a blurry figure under the glittering words "Cartoon World Experience". He was lying motionless in the middle of the entrance of the stadium.
When it came to night vision, even a posthuman was no match for the cat doctor. Meowie Hu stood up on Lin Sanjiu's head. He craned his neck and looked into the distance. Then, he patted Lin Sanjiu's forehead, a little surprised, "Why do I feel that the person on the ground looks a little familiar? He seems to be the person who chased after you to return your things."
Puppeteer?
Lin Sanjiu was stunned. She quickly called out to AYU, who was behind her. Then, he strode forward.
After returning the four Special Items to Puppeteer, Lin Sanjiu suggested that the cat doctor take a good look at Puppeteer's injuries. However, since he was no longer under Meowie Hu's influence, Puppeteer would never allow a cat to treat his injuries. He snorted sarcastically and left without saying goodbye to Lin Sanjiu.
Before the fight with Lin Sanjiu, Puppeteer had already exited the "Cartoon World Experience". Lin Sanjiu figured that it would be easy for him to clear the stage again, so she didn't worry about him. However, she didn't expect to find an unconscious Puppeteer at the entrance of the stadium.
If it weren't for the slight rise and fall of his chest, Lin Sanjiu would have thought that the person in front of her, who was as white as a sheet of paper, was already dead.
"This … seems like his injuries are really serious." Lin Sanjiu was a little cautious and curious. She squatted down beside Puppeteer. The cat and the Soul also came up to her. "Fortunately, we discovered him. Otherwise, if it was someone else, he would have been stabbed."
"Is his popularity that bad?" the cat asked, his eyes sparkling. The cat was the happiest person when he found the unconscious Puppeteer. He had already taken off his backpack, and there were all kinds of small props scattered all over the ground. From the size of the props, it was obvious that they were specially made for the cat doctor. Lin Sanjiu could recognize some of them, but she didn't know what they were for.
To prevent Puppeteer from wearing any protective props, Lin Sanjiu stopped the cat doctor, who was eager to try. She found a branch nearby and poked him twice. His pale and bloodless skin immediately sank into the tip of the branch. His pale and bloodless skin immediately sank into the tip of the branch. Lin Sanjiu waited for a long time, but nothing happened. His breathing became even weaker and almost inaudible.
"Great." Lin Sanjiu squinted her eyes and examined his face. She noticed that the glitter powder on his face had dimmed. If she didn't look closely, it would have melted into his skin. After thinking for a while, she patted the cat doctor's head and said softly, "You do it."
The cat coughed. His paw glowed and one of his fingernails poked out. When Lin Sanjiu saw that the cat was disinfecting his fingernails with alcohol cotton, she was still a little worried, so she added, "I don't have any grudges with him anymore. Don't kill him."
Meowie Hu, whose dignity had been insulted, immediately glared at her unhappily.
"You stay here and look after Doctor Hu," Lin Sanjiu stood up and instructed AYU, "If any random person comes, don't hold back. Get your queen a new outfit … When I come back, it would be best if both of you are still in your current state. Don't let me see anything that shouldn't happen."
AYU rolled her eyes, revealing the whites of her eyes, "Where are you going?"
Lin Sanjiu stretched her body and limbs. Then, she turned around to look at the "Cartoon Museum".
"You and Doctor Hu can at most survive the first round. It would be good if you can earn enough Stamina Points to survive the night." On the way here, Lin Sanjiu had already made up her mind. It wasn't very likely for her to protect the two of them in the amusement park. "I don't have a choice. I have to get more Stamina Points just in case."
Meowie Hu and AYU had to have enough Stamina Points if they had to quit the game to save their lives. If one of them wanted to quit, it would cost 60 Stamina Points. If two of them wanted to quit, it would cost 120 Stamina Points.
"But even if we quit the game, we can only return to where we started. We can't go any further," AYU couldn't help blurting out.
"That's better than losing our lives," Lin Sanjiu replied without turning her head, "Besides, when that time comes, you guys should just leave the amusement park as soon as possible. If that happens, you guys should leave the amusement park as soon as possible. "
When Lin Sanjiu heard AYU behind her fall silent, she looked at Meowie Hu again and walked towards the "Cartoon World Experience".
What looked like a public toilet were two small rooms that looked exactly the same. Lin Sanjiu didn't know which room she should enter from. Lin Sanjiu looked around but she didn't see anyone who looked like a ticket seller. However, that was also the reason why the red riding hood doll that Puppeteer had placed at the entrance was so alluring.
"Is anyone there?"
Lin Sanjiu shouted at the room on the left.
The door was ajar. It wasn't completely closed. There was only a small gap between the door and the darkness behind it. She waited for a few seconds, but no one answered from behind the door.
Lin Sanjiu was cautious and didn't enter immediately. Instead, she turned around and walked to the other side. However, when she looked closer, she realized that the door of the room on the right was tightly shut. She tried to push the door, but it didn't budge.
It seemed that she had no choice but to enter the room on the left.
Lin Sanjiu stretched out her hand and pushed the door lightly. The door slid open soundlessly and melted into the darkness. Lin Sanjiu didn't know if it was because it was late at night or because the amusement park was like that. Behind the door was a mass of absolute darkness that could absorb any light. Lin Sanjiu blinked a few times, but she still couldn't see what was behind the door.
She entered her hypersensory state and activated her [Defense Forcefield]. She braced herself and walked into the mass of darkness.
The moment she stepped in, the door immediately slid shut behind her. When the door was locked with a soft click, Lin Sanjiu was certain that she didn't hear a click but a "Hahaha." Instead, she heard a "Haha."
"What the hell is this door?" Lin Sanjiu couldn't help grumbling. If she hadn't experienced the baptism of Kisaragi Station and the haunted house, she might have found this place a little creepy. "Isn't this Cartoon World?"
Lin Sanjiu felt as if she was completely blind. At this moment, she couldn't see anything. She could only see pure darkness. Even in her hypersensory state, she couldn't sense anything strange around her. Dust was still floating quietly in the air. There seemed to be no one or anything around her.
However, he had just taken a step forward in the dark. Lin Sanjiu suddenly realized that there was a person, or rather, a creature, standing right next to the tip of her nose. If she had taken a bigger step, she would have bumped into the creature's face.
In an inexplicable manner, two darker and denser shadows appeared in the darkness. Lin Sanjiu was shocked, but she quickly raised her skeletal wings. Countless sharp bone blades suddenly pointed at the thing in front of her face. A drop of cold sweat slid down her forehead.
This was just a subconscious defensive reaction. In fact, she knew in her heart that the thing in front of her should be a pocket dimension creature, and it probably had no hostility towards her. Otherwise, the way it appeared was enough to seriously injure her.
Since the thing was so close to her face, she couldn't see what it was. She took two steps back and tilted her head back. Only then did she get a good look at the creature in front of her in the fading darkness.
The two shadows, which were darker than the darkness, had now revealed their standard round shapes. As the light grew brighter, the creature's black, long, and vertical eyes stared at Lin Sanjiu. Beneath its prominent smiling muscles, the deep grin almost stretched across its entire face.
Even though Lin Sanjiu had seen that grin many times, she couldn't help shuddering when it gradually became clearer in the darkness.
Mickey Mouse was looking at her happily.
"Welcome, welcome!" As it spoke, its long mouth flashed with snow-white, square teeth that looked like human teeth. "We have a new visitor. I hope you like our Cartoon World."
Lin Sanjiu was very sure that she wouldn't like it.
"You need 5 Stamina Points to enter," the Mickey Mouse, who was at least 1.8 meters tall, was able to look Lin Sanjiu in the eye. His two large round ears disappeared into the darkness above them, "If you see something you like in Cartoon World, or if you want to keep a souvenir, you need to buy it with your Stamina Points."
Before Lin Sanjiu could ask, "What do you mean?", she cursed her bad luck inwardly.
Regardless of what Mickey Mouse was referring to, since he mentioned it, there must be something in the attraction that required Stamina Points. Putting aside the fact that she didn't have much Stamina Points left after helping Puppeteer, even if she did have enough Stamina Points, she would have to save them for Meowie Hu.
Lin Sanjiu adjusted her breathing and calmed herself down. She asked, "What kind of items would a normal player buy?"
"Oh, that's a lot," Mickey Mouse raised his hand, which was covered in a large white glove. He tilted his head and touched Lin Sanjiu's wrist as if he was cleaning a precious artifact. Lin Sanjiu immediately got goosebumps. The smile on Mickey Mouse's face froze. He looked at Lin Sanjiu affectionately and said, "Some of them buy three meals a day. Some of them buy clothes and beds … After all, all the items here are very cute. It's very easy for them to be tempted."
"Then, I guess you're not on the cute list," Lin Sanjiu added in her heart. She glanced at Mickey Mouse. Of course, she wouldn't say that out loud. At that moment, Mickey Mouse winked at her as if he was trying to act mischievous. He didn't close his eyelids from top to bottom. Instead, he closed his eyes from the sides to the center.
Lin Sanjiu was shocked by his behavior. Seeing that she couldn't get any more information from him, she didn't want to stay any longer and walked into the attraction.
Mickey Mouse immediately followed her like a shadow.
Lin Sanjiu turned her head. Under her bewildered gaze, Mickey Mouse's eyes shrunk to the center again. Then, he laughed and explained, "You are a new visitor. You don't know this yet. The first place you will experience is my and Minnie's home. Come, let me take you there. "(To be continued.)
