The Abyssal Garden: No Room for the Idle-Chapter 278 - 201: The Wooden Man Game!

"Ding ding ding..."

That voice's chuckle came again from inside the pillar.

"Let me explain the rules."

"We are about to enter the Death Woodman game. Survive for twenty minutes, and you can start descending. If no one manages to do that when the time is up... everyone will be eaten."

"Boom!"

A ripping sound followed by the Lucky Cat's head rumblingly turned away, its back to the people, but the Bell on its chest still remained in everyone's line of sight.

Then, with emotionless mechanical eerie music,

"When the woodman turns its back, you can move; once it turns its head back, you must remain still... It sounds easy to survive, but... I always feel it's not that simple," Fang Li said in a grave voice.

The others were also calm and solemn at this moment; they weren't fools. To have come from the ninth layer until now, the dangers they faced became more and more lethal. How could it be so easy to survive?

Then that voice continued.

"Of course, there's another little surprise. On top of survival, if someone can ring the Bell on its chest, I can double your points. However, there's only one slot available, first-come-first-served."

It echoed slowly with a light chuckle throughout the entire area, then disappeared.

At this moment,

many hesitated for an instant, then started to charge forward. They knew that if their points could be doubled, they became somewhat eager.

The Tool exchange window showed that only one item could be exchanged, but a greyed-out section hadn't opened up yet, the points must have some other use.

In any case,

increasing one's points was the unanimous judgment of many.

"With insufficient information for judgment, they just charged forward." But many people calmly watched the scene, "Not rational enough."

"But it's good, at least it can help us get more information."

Ye Shou looked at Su Qi, "What do you say, Brother Su?"

Su Qi looked at the gigantic Lucky Cat,

"There's nothing to say, haven't you noticed that the walls around us have already changed?"

Fang Li and Ye Shou both turned their eyes toward the distant walls.

The enclosed area was huge, and since the pillars were all off to one side, the Lucky Cat's back was against the furthest wall.

Now, they could vaguely make out ghostly faces appearing in the tall walls and dark red blood flowing out.

The next moment!

"Snap!"

The Lucky Cat suddenly turned its head, its eyes shining red, and the entire area's alarm sounded vigorously!

Everyone quickly froze, those in the forefront, greedy yet extremely cautious, always watched the movements!

But there's always someone who couldn't react in time, considering the Lucky Cat's speed of turning its head was too swift and abrupt.

Five people stumbled and couldn't stabilize their stance!

The Lucky Cat's body didn't move, but it slowly opened its mouth; the darkness inside sent a chill down everyone's spine, especially those five, with their hair standing on end.

And in an instant!

A multitude of tentacles burst forth! A dense mass directly grabbed the five and swallowed them in a blink, not even giving them a chance to scream or beg for mercy.

That was it...

The crowd was startled, sweat-soaked.

However, Su Qi paused for a moment, "It seems it's Brother Cat indeed... Even if it isn't, it belongs to the same species as Brother Cat."

At this time, the Lucky Cat didn't turn its head back, its deadpan eyes as if watching each individual, every silent and not daring to move.

But things were indeed not that simple.

The walls burst forth with a great surge of blood, and the ghostly faces with roaring screams, violently attacked.

"Is that it?"

It wasn't enough to startle the crowd or make them tremble, after all, they were not ordinary people. Knowing that they absolutely must not move, they would naturally do everything possible to prevent any and all means.

The torrent of blood and Ghost Face rushed toward them.

But it caused no harm; the crowd suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, "Just an illusion indeed..."

And the very next second,

someone screamed in agony, "Aaah!"

A knife suddenly Penetrated his stomach, cutting open a huge gash, with blood and entrails spilling out!

The sound didn't make the Lucky Cat move; as long as the body's movement wasn't too big, it wouldn't be a problem.

But it didn't relax the crowd one bit; more screams followed, bloody and bone-scraping, intense pain caused many to collapse, their pale faces any movement!
