Chapter 191: 191: The Greedy Snake
Be it the ground or the walls, every piece of flesh was shivering and shuddering!
Bai Youwei crouched under the table, watching the lumps of flesh hanging from the table edge twitching incessantly. She felt so nauseous that she wished she could just drop dead!
Thankfully, fate hadn’t cornered her completely, at least she had a place to shelter –
She buried her face in Shen Mo’s chest, clinging to him and breathing deeply. The crisp scent and the smell of his sweat could soothe her heart and alleviate the extreme discomfort caused by the chunks of flesh.
Shen MO was completely oblivious.
He had no time to bother about how intimate they were at the moment.
Holding Bai Youwei, his eyes were staring through the gap between the tables at the restaurant entrance, watching a giant monster crawling past the door!
When he saw it ten minutes ago, its body was as thick as a road, but its body had now expanded, filling both pedestrian lanes!
Just like a rumbling train rushing past the door, causing the nearby buildings to tremble!
It took a good seven or eight seconds for its body to completely pass by the door!
The vibrations were receding.
Gradually disappearing with the increasing distance.
Finally, calm returned to the surroundings…
Shen MO rose, holding Bai Youwei and placed her back on the wheelchair. Chang Weicai, Tan Xiao, and Pan Xiaoxin, who were in the kitchen, also came out, looking at the duo with lingering fear.
“Brother Mo…” Tan Xiao glanced at the kitchen behind him, faltered, “The guy inside said this is the Snake Maze. Only when the snake reaches its maximum length and size, the exit will open. All the companions who came in with him were eaten by the snake. He was injured while escaping and has been trapped here.”
Snake Maze?
Shen MO frowned and said: “That big creature outside definitely fits the characteristics of the snake. After eating, its body became longer and bigger.”
“Is it fast?” Teacher Chang was concerned about safety, “Can we escape from it with our current physical fitness?”
Shen MO thought for a moment, and slowly shook his head: “Changes in speed are not significant. In the game mode of Snake, accelerating is to increase the game difficulty. Once the snake crashes into the wall, it’s zame-over. But from what I’ve just seen, this snake won’t be affected even if it hits the wall, so there’s no point in gaining speed.”
Pan Xiaoxin cast a pale face, “Then… does that mean… that the snake will never
“The most important thing in a maze is to find an exit, not to kill monsters.” Bai Youwei, suppressing her nausea, said, “But the problem now is… In most cases, the game of Snake has an infinite mode, there is no concept of level clearance. Although some modes have stages, they also have a corresponding points system and only open the entrance to the next level when a certain point is reached. Could this maze have a scoring system that we are unaware
Pausing for a moment, she covered her mouth and nose and continued, “Furthermore… If we keep hiding inside the house, how do we judge when it has achieved its maximum size? Can we really trust what that man said?” Despite her overwhelming nausea, her mind was relatively clear.
Shen MO pondered for a while and said, “Let’s go back and ask him.”
They all returned to the kitchen.
The man slumped on the ground. Seeing them come back, he looked panicked, “You all saw it, right? That snake… Has it gotten longer?”
Shen MO studied the frightened man and his expression, and slowly said, “Yes, it’s gotten longer. But due to its size, it seems that it can only move outside and cannot enter a room. We should be safe staying here.”
The man let out a sigh of relief, but still nervously looked outside, “When it’s at its smallest and largest states, it’s relatively safe.. But when it’s in between, you must not get found by it! That snake eats everything! Besides the flesh here, it will eat anything else it finds!”
