Tower Defense Game: My Eternal Kingdom

Chapter 388 A Victory That Doesn't Exist
"Since you chose to play games with me, it means that you don't really want to hurt me, but why do you have to set up many obstacles to prevent me from finding everyone?
Don't you just want to enjoy the fun of winning? "

Cheng Shen suddenly thought.

He loosened the rags that had blocked the boy's mouth, looked over with bloodshot eyes, maybe he was intimidated by his previous actions, the boy was about to speak immediately, but at this moment the girl shook him and hit him hard.

"Well!"

She whimpered with a warning in her eyes, and the boy immediately shut his mouth and dared not speak.

Cheng Shen raised his fingers lightly, and the soul silk that bound the girl immediately swayed up and down, throwing all kinds of meat and eight elements into the girl's throat, "Although I can't force you to question, it's okay to give a small punishment."

His slightly threatening tone and the actions he had taken made the girl dare not say any more. She just lowered her head and stared at the boy sideways.

"not enough……"

Cheng Shen lightly raised his finger and waved it up and down.

The girl immediately experienced what is called an unprotected death whirlwind, and when Cheng Shen stopped, her eyes were circling.

"What's your name."

Cheng Shen asked the boy in a soft tone.

"Ika..."

The boy said timidly.

"Ika, very good, tell me everything you know, under my protection no one can threaten you or hurt you."

Cheng Shen said sincerely.

"If I speak out, they will lock me in a small dark room..." Ika's eyes filled with tears in fear.

Cheng Shen didn't have that much patience to spend with him, "Then do you want to enter the little black room, or play a game with me?" The soul thread entangled with Ika began to swing up and down, which immediately caused him to scream again and again.

"I say!" Ika surrendered, ignoring the girl's threatening eyes and said: "We are all forced by Whately! He must win the game, or he will punish us severely!"

"Whatley?"

Cheng Shen repeated.

"He is the oldest among us and our 'captain'."

Ika whispered.

"Sister Martha doesn't care if it bullies you like this?" Cheng Shen wondered.

Previously, when he was looking for the relics of the high priest, he had encountered a child who had been transformed into a weird child by the church. From that child, he learned that the children in the asylum had a unified fear.

Martha.

Cheng Shen guessed that this person should be Orphan Ren who was sleeping deep in the asylum, but from 059's tone at the time, it sounded like Martha and them were not like companions, but more like a friendly instructor.

"because……"

Ika stopped talking again, and his eyes rolled around with some guilt.

Cheng Shen raised his finger, and a strand of soul thread lifted it, but Yika would rather turn pale with fear than tell the truth.

"Strange."

Cheng Shen looked at the girl's stubborn expression and gave up the idea of ​​asking it.

but.

At least one doubt in his heart can be dispelled.

There are no hidden conditions for the hide-and-seek task, as long as all the children are found, the difficulty is only that the children will win by any means under the force of Whateley's despotic power.

So to speak.

He was right to worry about them cheating at first.

The location of the third child is also in the backyard according to his field of perception, walking through the woods that have been leveled, but are reuniting under the quality of the nightmare.Cheng Shen came to the edge of a pond with floating green moss.

In the dark night, the dark green pond looks like a monster's mouth wide open, and the entangled water plants look like jet-black hair, and the swollen and pale human limbs stacked underneath can be faintly seen.

"Pfft!"

Suddenly there was the sound of falling into the water, but it was in the middle of the pond, a black shadow plunged into the pond and struggled constantly, stirring the water surface into ripples.

"Help... cough cough... help...!"

A faint cry for help came.

This is another multiple choice question.

To find the third child, he had to take the initiative to enter the trap it set up using itself as bait.These unlucky children can play four levels of strength in the place where they died, as if they were at home.

It's not easy for others to handle them.

No matter what.

This time they met Cheng Shen, a guy who didn't like to play cards according to routine.

Pump!It must be pumped, it cannot be used to!
Woo!
The wind blows.

In an instant.

A violent hurricane connecting heaven and earth formed above the pond.One end of the hurricane was connected to the water surface, and immediately swept the dirty water in the pond together with the corpses hidden under the aquatic plants into the sky, tearing them into pieces!

The pond was not that big, but it bottomed out in just a short while, and a fat kid with wet and swollen skin was stuck in the mud in a daze.

Somewhat at a loss.

Whoosh!
When the soul silk was tied to it, it still tried to struggle to escape, but the soul silk tightened and pulled it up from the bottom of the muddy pool, hanging behind Cheng Shen together, becoming brothers and sisters with Yika and the girl .

"If anyone can provide Whateley's position, I will give you a chance to hide again.

And I won't go to you guys until I get the others. "

Cheng Shen said.

"Wow……"

The drowned little fat boy spit out a large amount of mud, sand and sewage, as well as half of his pale arm.

Cheng Shen immediately gagged its mouth and tucked back the arm tenderly, then gave Ika an encouraging look.There are only zero or countless times of betrayal, and once you are familiar with it, you will gradually get used to it.

"It's always been the best hider among us, and I don't know where it is."

Ika's confession this time was indeed more enjoyable than before, but unfortunately he didn't give a useful answer.

Cheng Shen stuffed its mouth again with a cloth strip.

"There are still six children left." He looked at the blurred shadows that appeared in the field of perception. "As long as Wetley is found, the game can probably end early, but I only have a one-sixth chance now."

He guessed where Whateley was most likely hiding.

continue searching.

In an abandoned music room, Cheng Shen found the fourth child who was hanged in the piano room;
In the bell tower of the asylum, he found the fifth child whose body was made into a pointer;
The sixth child was found in a saucepan in the cafeteria; the seventh in the infirmary...  

"Is my luck really that bad?"

Cheng Shen turned his head suspiciously, looking at a group of ghosts and ghosts hanging behind him,
He looked for Whateley from a one-in-six chance all the way down to a one-in-half now.

They all failed.

and.

Cheng Shen had a premonition.

It was probably not Whateley he had found this time.

when!
Push open the church door.

This is a side room built next to the collapsed main church. The layout inside is no different from that of ordinary churches. There are benches sitting side by side at the bottom. The only strange thing is that there are no god statues on the high platform.

This is where the pastors used to teach orphans, but don't think that the church has good intentions.

Most of the knowledge they teach is brainwashing arguments about beliefs. The church needs to ensure that the weirdness they create can be used by itself. This brainwashing begins when the orphans are very young.

Snapped!
No sooner had he entered the church than the empty room erupted with whippings.

"Why didn't you listen! Why didn't you listen to what I taught you!" The angry man's voice came, and a scene of gray and white images emerged. In the picture, a trainer in old-fashioned clothes swung a cane and severely beat a child.

A streak of blood seeped out from under his thin clothes, which not only did not stop the instructor from inflicting violence, but made him inexplicably excited.

suddenly.

The instructor turned his head to look in his direction.

As if shouting at him, "You are also a disobedient child and need to be taught a lesson!"

Not like.

The cruel instructor in the memory screen raised his leg and walked out of the gray area, holding a thorny whip in his hand, and violently beat Cheng Shen.

Snapped! !

The invisible whip tore a dark crack in the air, and the strength of this instructor has even reached the peak level of the fourth order!
to have such a powerful image.

The strength of this eighth child should be very strong among all orphans.

Cheng Shen suddenly rejoiced that he didn't try to complete the game the day before yesterday, otherwise, he wouldn't know how he would die.No wonder this asylum was abandoned by the church, the freaks inside became more and more perverted!
He raised his hand, the shattered ripples rippled, and the dense creases of space immediately spread forward, offsetting the instructor's attack.

Then continue to spread.

The puppet's promotion is imminent, and his avatar will also be affected. The attacks released are easier to touch the threshold. Even the way the soul silk controls the marionette can easily release the power close to the limit.

The instructor was smashed before he could whip the second whip.

Cheng Shen looked at the boy who was still hiding in the gray, and said in a cold tone, "Are you coming out by yourself, or do you want me to do it?"

The boy looked at the seven orphans who were hung behind him like bacon, hesitated, and then gave up resistance.

"You're not Whatley either."

Cheng Shen said in a serious tone.

He didn't have to open his mouth to verify.

If Whateley, who often bullies other children, is caught, he will definitely be furious at the first time. From the reaction of the eighth child, it can be seen that it is just a victim who in turn helps the abuser.

"Looks like I'm really going to be unlucky here."

Cheng Shen murmured.

The decision to choose one out of nine can be wrong eight times, which can no longer be explained by pure luck.He prefers that the child named Whateley in the end has a special ability that can subtly influence him.

interfere with the choices he makes.

"All of you are refusing to reveal Whateley's identity. It shouldn't be as simple as being afraid of it."

Cheng Shen turned around.

These guys, despite their appearance as just children, actually lived longer than the eighteen generations of his ancestors combined.Instead of being a place to preserve their innocence, the asylum turned them into demons.

"Looks like I guessed right."

Cheng Shen sneered.

The eight children all pretended to be like old fried dough sticks on the surface, showing no flaws.

But don't forget.

Cheng Shen's eyes allow him to see directly into a person's heart!
There is fear, tension, or strong uneasiness in their hearts, but more of it is a mix of negative expectations.

What are they expecting?
Expect yourself to find the last child to be the winner.

Or is Whateley about to show up, kill him, and hold on to the final victory?

"Could it be that there will be two first-order weirdos in the asylum?"

Cheng Shen had a delicate mind.

In the information he had access to within the night watchman, it was indeed recorded that there was only one orphan in the asylum.But because it strongly hates church personnel, that material has not been updated for hundreds of years.

If it weren't for the fact that he had a good relationship with the orphan before.

When he came for the second time, he had already been killed by him because of his status as a hunter.And the restrictions on his playing the game are so harsh, maybe it's because of the influence of his identity, which caused their resentment to increase...

The last child was actually very close to his position.

Get out of the church.

Cheng Shen stood on the flat ground outside the house and looked at the top of the towering tower.

A figure was trembling up to the roof at this moment, with despair and determination on its tense little face.

"You won't win."

It looked at Cheng Shen's direction, and its lips squirmed slightly. With omnipresent perception, it immediately transmitted the information it wanted to express to Cheng Shen's ears.

What do you mean?
When Cheng Shen had already seen it, the game should have ended, but it didn't.

The result of such a rambling did not exceed his expectations.

He didn't know what the child was going to do now, but an intuition told him that he had to stop what it was going to do next.

"Trying to stop me by committing suicide?"

Cheng was puzzled.

suddenly.

He thought of a possibility.

The basic completion condition of the game of hide and seek is just to find the child.And before he didn't break the contract for the first time, and didn't get the status of the church, the difficulty was only the lowest level of the second level.

At that time.

In fact, it is really possible for him to complete this task.

He doesn't need to find all the nine children, as long as he can redeem one of them, he can enter the next link.And now, what he is doing is undoubtedly the highest difficulty that this mission can trigger!
highest difficulty,
Not capped.

It is very likely to lead to an extraordinary level of threat!
Cheng Shen couldn't help but ponder, what is the reason for him to play hide-and-seek, which would lead to the most terrifying orphan grievance in the asylum?

now.

The answer seemed to be right in front of his eyes.

It is the death of a child!

Orphan's Complaint attaches the most importance to these children who have suffered so much. Once a child is injured or dies in the game.

No matter what the reason is, it will immediately burst into a rage!

Cheng Shen never imagined that these unlucky kids would commit suicide in order to prevent him from winning the game!

"There is only one life, you have to think about it!"

Cheng Shen said coldly.

Nonsense, it was always just a way for him to delay time. An invisible soul thread condensed into a thread had already circled around. While the child was not paying attention, he tied his ankles and hoisted him directly into the air!

"Whatley, you lost."

Cheng Shen said calmly.

Unexpectedly, child No. 9 suddenly grinned a weird smile on his tense pale face.

"I'm not Whateley... The man you're looking for never existed."
