The soles of Tao Nai's feet were itchy, and more vines came out of them.

She couldn't speak. It seemed like something was stuck in her throat. A feeling of being choked kept lingering in her throat. She couldn't go up or come down. It was very suffocating.

[Ding - It is detected that the player is suffering from mental pollution, the mental value is -3]

"Uh-!" Tao Nai moved his throat and finally opened his mouth that seemed to be stuck, but spit out a root.

The rhizome was like a tentacle only as thick as a chopstick, coming out of Tao Nai's throat. Thin tentacles extended from it and stuck in her mouth, making it impossible to swallow or spit it out.

Tao Nai looked at the statues around him with difficulty, and suddenly felt that his own was very similar to these statues.

Not just her, other players also had the same situation as her.

They are being assimilated by these statues.

Tao Nai couldn't move, but the distance between these statues and them was getting closer and closer.

The statues struggled to get out of the soil. They stretched out their hands, touched the vines under Tao Nai's feet, and then detached themselves from the wall.

The moment the statue fell off, it turned into a ball of soft mud. A vague human figure emerged from it. After standing in front of Tao Nai, a face very similar to hers was revealed.

But then, the statue's face was gradually entangled with more roots, and its facial features seemed to be out of order, turning into a mess on the face.

But this couldn't stop the statue from getting closer to Tao Nai. It almost completely stuck to Tao Nai's face.

As the statue's eyeballs turned, Tao Nai's left eye immediately fell into darkness.

She blinked subconsciously, but her left eye lost all feeling.

In contrast, the statue's left eye moved to where it should be. It blinked, and its clear eyes reflected Tao Nai's current appearance.

Tao Nai's left eye actually turned into wood.

The rest of her face was obviously still flesh, but her left eyeball and eyelid had turned into wood. No matter how she moved, the eye was hollow and unable to move according to her thoughts.

Tao Nai wanted to scream, feeling terrified that his body was about to be taken away by the sculpture.

She wanted to ask for help and reached out to pull Ji Xiaoyue in front of her.

She was finally able to move, but the moment she touched Ji Xiaoyue, she forcefully pulled off Ji Xiaoyue's left arm.

The crisp sound of wood breaking is not something a normal person should make.

The connection between Ji Xiaoyue's shoulder and arm was broken, and Tao Nai was completely stunned by the irregular saw teeth on the wood.

At this time, the statue standing in front of Ji Xiaoyue suddenly looked at Tao Nai.

The statue is made of a mixture of soil and roots, and some soil and roots fall from its body when it moves.

However, its left hand turned into a human one, with snow-white skin and a small red mole on its slender wrist.

That is the small red mole on Sister Xiaoyue's hand. This statue with the same body shape as Sister Xiaoyue is slowly taking away Sister Xiaoyue's body.

No, it’s not just the statue in front of Sister Xiaoyue.

The statue in front of them is also trying to take away their bodies.

This is how her eyes were taken away, and if this continues, their body parts will be completely taken away by the statue.

At that time, they will become new sculptures, and the statues currently appearing will most likely become the new 'Squad 7', following the waiter out of the cellar.

A biting chill spread throughout his limbs and bones, and Tao Nai had never been so frightened. The sculpture in front of her blinked her left eye, and the palm of her left hand immediately lost feeling.

Raising his arm and seeing that his palm had turned into wood, Tao Nai took a step back, and two of the roots growing under his feet were torn off.

These roots grew out from under her feet. They were more than just roots, they were more like nerves connected to her senses.

Whenever she tries to struggle, these roots break, giving her a certain amount of pain warning.

At the same time, it will also pollute her mental value.

[Ding - It is detected that the player is suffering from mental pollution, the mental value is -3]

There was a strong pain in the back of her mind, and Tao Nai wanted to retreat, but the statue in front of her suddenly opened its arms and hugged her.

The moist smell emanating from the soil enveloped her. Tao Nai struggled and accidentally knocked off the layer of soil covering the statue's face.

A wooden doll appeared under the soil, and its skin showed signs of decay due to accumulation over time.

And when Tao Nai took one look, the intense pollution hit him again.

[Ding - It is detected that the player is suffering from mental pollution, the mental value is -3]

With his head buzzing, Tao Nai couldn't think of a way to get rid of the sculptured doll.

If the other party wants to replace them, then they need a medium to seize their bodies.

But how exactly is it done?

Tao Nai was thinking about it when he suddenly raised his eyes and met the waiter's gaze.

The waiter's eyes narrowed strangely, and his eyes were dull, as if there were two wooden beads embedded in the eye sockets.

The wooden eyeballs rotated in it, and the dry friction between the eye sockets made a creaking sound.

[Ding - It is detected that the player is suffering from mental pollution, the mental value is -5]

There was a roar in Tao Nai's mind, and her teeth crushed the root sticking out of her mouth: "The source of the pollution is the waiter in the shop, find a way to stop him, otherwise we will all become puppets!"

The smile on the waiter's face disappeared. He shook the oil lamp in his hand, and then looked at everyone again.

This time, an ear was taken away by the puppet. Tao Nai tried to move her stiff palm. Only if her hand could move could she hold the scalpel.

But her blood vessels seemed to have turned into rhizomes, causing her body to become completely stiff and immobile.

If this continues, she won't be able to stop the waiter's gaze from contaminating them.

Strong helplessness emerged in his heart, and Tao Nai could not think of any solution for a while.

[Ding - It is detected that the player is suffering from mental pollution, the mental value is -5]

"Damn it, we'll all be doomed if this continues... What's going on with these rhizomes? Why are they so clingy?!" Jie Yu freed up a hand and randomly broke all three rhizomes sticking out of his mouth.

"No!" Tao Nai tried to stop Jie Yu's crazy movements, but she still reminded him a step too late.

Jieyu grabbed the two-meter-long roots from his mouth. He almost vomited, and finally bit off the roots with his teeth.

Blood spurted out of his mouth, causing him to scream in pain.

"Idiot, these rhizomes have become part of our bodies. If you destroy them with brute force, it is equivalent to harming your body!" Luo Mianmian said this and suddenly froze: "Wait a minute, these rhizomes are It grows from our bodies!"
