Chapter 2566: Chapter 1164: Fairytale Beach, Dark Ending!
In Disneyland, monsters were rampant, scurrying across the streets, hunting humans!
Lin Baici and his group, because they were wearing costume skins, were spared by those monsters.
Even so, everyone still felt exhilarated.
"When will this celebration end?"
Liu Zilu, frightened, kept wanting to stay close to Lin Baici.
"I guess it’ll last a few hours!"
Lin Baici was not sure either.
"Will the costume skin we have on stop working?"
Tao Nai clutched the skin on his body. Though it was dirty and smelly, and wearing it was unbearably hot, Tao Nai would never take it off.
"..."
Lin Baici remained silent.
Should he tell his classmates that this skin not only doesn’t lose effectiveness, but if they can’t kill the god, it will grow onto them permanently?
"If it weren’t for the risk of dying, this celebration would actually be quite interesting!"
Ji Xinyan found some joy amidst the hardship.
The characters she’d read about in various fairy tales since childhood were now all appearing in this park.
A pirate ship appeared from the northwest corner of the sky, slicing through the air, occasionally shoving someone off.
Laughter echoed, but it was the monsters who were happy.
The group followed Lin Baici, like a group of children being cared for by their mother duck.
Lin Baici followed his hunger radar and ran all the way.
In fact, the opening of the fairy tale celebration had an advantage: other amusement projects were temporarily closed.
For most visitors, the fairy tale celebration was scarier, as getting caught by monsters meant certain death, but if they managed to get costume skins, it actually became safer.
At least Lin Baici didn’t have to worry about being caught up in an amusement project while looking for the god, which would waste his time.
As they say, surprises await those who are strong!
Following Lin Baici, they exited the ’bustling’ park area, crossed a path through the woods, climbed a small hill, then rode a raft along the stream, finally ending up on a stretch of shoal.
The shoal was rugged with strangely shaped rocks and no trace of birds, exuding an eerie atmosphere everywhere.
"Where do we go now?"
Qian Jiahui looked around the endless stretch of white sand in confusion.
His physical fitness wasn’t great to begin with, and after all the turmoil with Lin Baici, he was exhausted. Now, seeing this beach, he felt a sense of despair.
Were it not for the fear of losing face, he actually wanted to just lie down and give up.
He had no choice,
too tired!
Now he was panting like a dead dog.
Lin Baici didn’t answer because he didn’t know either.
"Shh!"
Hua Yue Yu saw Lin Baici in thought and quickly placed her index finger on her lips, gesturing for everyone to be silent.
"What’s that?"
Lin Baici looked up, frowning, gazing at the sky.
The hunger radar pointed upward,
to the sky.
However, the sky was empty, not even a cloud in sight.
"Everyone, look around for clues!"
Lin Baici instructed.
He walked over to a strange rock, the sand beneath his feet soft, feeling wonderfully tactile to tread upon.
These strange rocks were the type of reefs commonly seen by the sea, bearing marks of wind and sun, and words besides!
Lin Baici took a glance; it was a fairy tale.
He checked several more reefs and found that each contained different fairy tale fragments.
"Bai Ci, should we find the reefs with the same fairy tale fragment and piece them together into a complete one?"
Ji Xinyan analyzed.
"There’s no other plan right now, might as well give it a shot!"
Hua Yue Yu also noticed the detail: "But when choosing a fairy tale, I suggest picking one with a beautiful, sunny, and positive theme."
Picking a dark fairy tale might lead to death.
[The night is the cradle of fairy tales!]
[Starlight hangs low, moonlight spills, the tender and gentle words of a mother resonate in the ear, congealing into tiny stars!]
[They will transform into a flatboat, carrying you towards a magical fairytale dreamland!]
"Can you say it more plainly?"
Lin Baici didn’t want to think too hard.
Why use flowery words when plain language would suffice?
The Eater God remained silent.
Clap!
Lin Baici clapped his hands loudly to get everyone’s attention: "Everyone, come here for a moment!"
Liu Zilu immediately darted over like an arrow-struck rabbit: "Class leader, did you find a clue?"
"Find anything?"
Bai Jiao wanted to show her worth by finding clues but was too late.
"Everyone, read the fairy tale fragments on the reefs, summarize and compile them. If they’re from the same story, mark them with small stones in order of the story’s sequence!"
Lin Baici directed.
Ji Xinyan’s group immediately began to act.
They were all top students from Haijing Polytechnic, and in the city-wide rankings during their college entrance exams, each of their scores was among the top.
Logically piecing together a complete story was one of the simplest task types on language tests.
Soon, the group gathered and summarized all fragments.
Fifteen minutes later, the first story emerged!
It told of a small village attacked by a fierce dragon, and the villagers were helpless. A young boy, for the village’s peace, voluntarily served the dragon, and through his wisdom, he slew the beast, returning with its head and treasure, hailed as a hero.
To an adult, this plot was quite clichéd, but children would likely love it.
"What should we do next?"
Bai Jiao wanted to know what would happen after finding a complete story.
"Read it out loud!"
Lin Baici looked at the reefs marked with story sequence numbers and, based on his past purification experiences, felt something was missing.
