"I'm sorry, Dabao, I can't die yet. Wait until I've avenged myself! After that, I will definitely come to find you and apologize. I know you're not willing to accept this either, right? You don't want those murderers to go unpunished, do you?" He sat on me, glaring at me with anger, and continued, "If you don't believe me, I can take you away from here right now. We can search for clues elsewhere. I refuse to believe we can't find those people!"
"Shut up! Don't think that just because you say it so nicely, I'll let you go!" Dabao looked at me coldly. His eyes no longer held the clarity and warmth they once did; all that remained was deep resentment and anger.
"What you're saying is too late. I know I can't get out of here, and don't think you can escape either! No one will come to save you, and no one will know you're here. Hahaha, just wait to die!"
"No matter what you say or how much you hate me, I've promised myself that I will not die here. Until I've avenged myself, I will absolutely not die!" After saying this, I ignored Dabao still sitting on me and walked through his body to stand up. I looked at him deeply for a moment before walking away.
Behind me was a maze; it seemed there was no way back. Otherwise, I'd either starve or exhaust myself halfway. The only way out was forward. Although I couldn't step over the bodies directly, if I walked left or right to the end, there should still be an exit. I refuse to believe this is a dead end!
"Feng Zi! Come back! Don't think I won't kill you!" Dabao's furious voice came from behind me. I kept walking without looking back and replied lightly, "If you want to kill me, then do it. I've made myself very clear. If I'm destined to die here, then I'll accept it. But even if there's only a slim chance of escaping, I'll hold onto it tightly!"
"You!!"
Hah, have we finally turned against each other? It would have been better if we had clarified things earlier. Are you happy now that you're in such a miserable state? What a fool!
Listening to the mocking laughter in my head, I sighed deeply without speaking. Indeed, I'm a fool, but I don't regret becoming who I am now. If given another chance to choose, I would still choose to trust Dabao! Even knowing it's a trap...
"You forced me! Go die!!" A sudden roar echoed in my ears. As soon as I turned my head, my shoulder was pushed hard. Already exhausted from dragging my weary body along, this powerful shove caused my balance to falter as I began to fall sideways.
No...!!
Before I could even resist, I felt myself plunge into the filthy depths of the Corpse! This Vast Space was not a flat surface; the bodies lay parallel to the ground, indicating that beneath them was a Trench. The platform I was on was small, barely enough for two people to walk side by side, so I was accidentally pushed down.
In close proximity, the stench of decay was even more intense. My face was covered in sticky filth, and although I couldn't see clearly, I felt nauseous and wanted to vomit. However, my stomach was empty, and after struggling to sit up with my hands, all I could manage was a dry heave. My body felt increasingly fatigued, both physically and mentally. My eyelids felt heavy as if weighed down by a thousand pounds, aching and swollen; all I wanted was to sleep soundly...
Just as I closed my eyes, a sudden chill shot through my Ankle, piercingly cold! It felt as if something had grabbed my foot... Was it a hand? A strong current surged from my feet to the top of my head, sending shivers down my spine. I looked down abruptly and saw, amidst the Green Dots of Fluorescence, a Withered, Blackened, Bony Hand firmly gripping my Ankle. The pant leg had been torn away earlier, leaving that ghastly hand in plain sight.
Looking to the side, I noticed a mass of Black Things moving; it slowly rose from within the corpse. It was a head! A Disheveled Person was crawling up from the ground in an eerie posture! Its movements were stiff and robotic!
At that moment, one thought consumed my mind: run! I had to leave immediately! As soon as that thought crossed my mind, I summoned all my strength to push myself up. But as soon as I took a step forward, I fell back into the Thick, Filthy Excrement. How could I forget that there was still a black hand gripping my foot? The chill from my foot pierced deeper into my heart. Desperately, I kicked at the hand that held me tightly. It looked shriveled and weak, but no matter how hard I kicked, it remained firmly attached to my Ankle; instead, my own foot throbbed in pain!
While trying to shake off that hand, I did not ignore the Disheveled Person crawling out from the Corpse Pile. As I glanced up again, that person's head had already lifted. Suddenly, a face that seemed unable to close its eyes emerged from the tangled mess of dirty hair. The first thing I saw were its Empty Black Eyes—cold and menacing with an unending void within them. Its already decaying face was crawling with various sizes of Corpse Cockroaches... In a panic, I desperately retreated while kicking at that shriveled yet surprisingly strong hand.
As the disheveled Corpse crawled closer and closer, an overwhelming sense of helplessness washed over me. My ankle was tightly gripped and unable to escape while another corpse suddenly rose towards me like a real-life Sadako. My heart trembled; yes! Once again, I experienced that deep sense of powerlessness and despair!
Supernatural Forces! Humanity is so weak and powerless in the face of such bizarre phenomena!
"Give up your futile struggle," turning around revealed Dabao sitting at the edge of the Trench, propping his chin on one hand while resting on the ground with the other. His smile was so sarcastic and sinister.
"No..." I couldn't believe that I would die here...
"Weren't you saying you wouldn't die until you avenged yourself? Why are you in such a sorry state now? Hehehe! I thought you were impressive; turns out you're just good at talking big. Hahaha... But don't worry; with so many people here to keep you company, you won't be lonely like me every day. Look how nice I'm being to you! Hahaha..."
Once he finished laughing, Dabao suddenly glared at me with a loathsome expression and coldly said: "I believe you'll have quite an audience here. But while you're happy about it, don't let your guard down; these people aren't as friendly as I am. Look!" He pointed ahead with his finger and pretended to be terrified as he said: "They're so eager to welcome you; they just don't look very friendly!"
Following his finger, I turned around and saw that, I don't know when, under the glow, countless dismembered corpses that should have been lying quietly had already risen from the ground. Not to mention those corpses with disheveled hair, even the ones that had rotted away to a large extent and were left with only bones had begun to move! Like a tidal wave, in the thousands of square meters illuminated by the glow, all the shadows were stirring restlessly, like waves on the sea, one after another, crawling this way. If one were to ignore the true nature of those "waves," how magnificent and beautiful it would be under this mysterious glow!
