After that, the five little friends didn't eat again. Ren Western Restaurant came up with all kinds of fragrant soups and desserts, and the five of them didn't move. Even the sweet-loving Chi Yingxue resisted the temptation of cakes for the first time in the world. She could only watch it and couldn't eat it. She was itchy.

The members of the tour group should eat and drink, and they are very comfortable.

This is a group of emotionless NPCs - five people have accepted this setting.

At the end of lunch, there were almost no people outside the tour group in the restaurant. The leader of the tour group was full, wiped his mouth with a napkin, got up and said, "Friends of the tour group, everyone is tired from walking in the morning. What's next? , I will take everyone to the leisure bath center to take a rest to relieve fatigue, and then we will go to the holiday resort on the outskirts of the city to experience the green mountains and green waters of our beautiful city... ”

"Okay!" Somebody in the tour group took the lead, and everyone responded accordingly.

The five friends exchanged glances, their fighting spirit was almost destroyed by all kinds of deaths, struggling to ignite a few sparks.

Bath center, Finnish bath, badge.

This dead level from the beginning to the end finally seeps in a light that can capture the direction.

As the army left the western restaurant, Xu Wang subconsciously glanced at the badge manual again, and the reminder was still "Finnish bath".

Wu Sheng understood what he was worried about at a glance, so he gave his captain reassurance: "There are indications that only our team will pass the barrier tonight. If the prompt really changes, there is only one reason, that is, we found the badge."

"There are no absolutes in everything," Xu Wang shook his head, carefully following the footsteps of the ALICE in front of him, and there was not the slightest bit of hesitation on weekdays, "It's always good to be cautious."

Seeing him like this, Wu Sheng was delighted: "A flowerpot and a fork scared you?"

Xu Wang rolled his eyes angrily, reluctantly, but he had to admit: "Without you, a flowerpot and a fork would have killed me twice."

Wu Sheng said, "But you have me."

Xu Wang turned to look at him.

Wu Sheng tilted his head slightly, gave the other party the most handsome angle, and smiled casually in the wind.

Xu Wang wanted to complain and kiss him again, but in the end he neither complained nor kissed, only the corners of his mouth curved.

What is love is that you want to write this person's "One Hundred Examples of Mistakes and Play Handsome Demonstrations" and let him recite it day and night, but at the same time you think his serious pretending is very cute.

"Aren't you afraid?" Xu Wang asked seriously.

From the first person who died, even Chi Yingxue, who had always been calm and indifferent, showed a desire to survive, but Wu Sheng was still as calm, calm, and methodical as usual.

"As long as you can see through the connection between the things around you and accidental death, all the so-called emergencies have become a fixed link in the death calculation chain," Wu Sheng looked up and looked forward, calmly, "When accidents are no longer accidents , suddenly no longer suddenly, there is nothing to fear."

Xu Wang: "..."

Wu Sheng suddenly turned his head and raised his eyebrows: "Do you regret it?"

Xu Wang didn't understand: "What do you regret?"

Wu Sheng said, "I regret not making up those thriller, suspense, and horror detective movies with me."

Xu Wang: "I can't make up for your level even if I make it eight times..."

What is there to see through the connection between things around you and accidental death... Is this a normal person's aftermath of a movie!

"It's okay," Wu Sheng shrugged, "I saw it as if you saw it."

The slur came to an abrupt end. Xu Wang stared blankly at Wu Sheng's profile, the afternoon sunlight reflected his clear outlines.

"What's the matter?" Wu Sheng was a little confused by the stare.

Xu Wang smiled softly at him, and rarely said the truth: "Suddenly I think you are quite handsome."

Wu Sheng frowned slowly: "Suddenly this word is used strangely."

Xu Wang: "..."

Wu Sheng looked at him persistently, full of anticipation.

Xu Wang surrendered: "Always, you've always been handsome—"

Wu Junshi was satisfied.

Captain Xu looked at the sky speechless. Of course, after looking at it for a second, it immediately retracted, and continued to set up the alert radar, looking straight ahead, taking into account the left and right sides.

The three buddies who followed closely behind the leader, while being apprehensive, were forced to eat dog food for three minutes.

Kuang Jinxin enjoyed it very much. Although he didn't know much about love, he could clearly feel the harmony and intimacy between the leaders, and even felt a little happiness with himself.

Chi Yingxue's heart was not disturbed, but she looked at the team leader's little flag, and wondered if it would trigger any interesting branch lines if she grabbed it.

Qian Ai, as an older young man who always wanted to get rid of the single and never got married, was heartbroken every step of the way, and every step of his life was a drop of blood. The sense of horror and terror that was about to drive people crazy was scattered and eased a bit.

The tour group entered a boulevard on an asphalt road, and there was the sound of machinery working in front of it.

Looking up, four workers were excavating the road with hand-held drilling machines within the drawn area. Usually there are some problems such as potholes in the road surface, so the old surface road surface will be dug out and then paved with new materials.

The tree-lined path is about six meters wide, the tour group walks on the right side, and the workers work in the front left, a long strip about seven meters long and three meters wide. The broken pavement with a certain thickness has not been cleaned and transported away, but it still remains in the state of being pried open and remains in place.

The four workers bowed their heads and concentrated on their work, and did not even look at the tour group that came by.

Xu Wang and Wu Sheng looked at each other, and then Wu Jun turned around and reminded his friends: "No matter what happens, don't listen, don't watch, don't be curious, don't watch."

Chi Yingxue looked back, expressing receipt.

Kuang Jinxin nodded vigorously.

Qian Ai said, "Understood, just follow the leader in a heartbeat."

If there is a so-called safe zone in this level, it must be centered on the "undead leader".

After unifying their thoughts, Xu Wang and Wu Sheng quickly walked two steps, followed closely behind the leader, and the other three partners immediately followed the leader's pace.

In an instant, the five people became the first phalanx of the large army, no more than one and a half meters away from the leader.

Soon, the large army and the workers brushed shoulders across the middle of the road.

Xu Wang tensed all his nerves, and looked at the team leader's flag, one step at a time, and walked steadily forward.

The seven-meter-long working range does not take many steps from the beginning to the end, but for those who are on high alert, every second is very long.

Finally, they followed the leader and crossed the construction area, seeing that the road ahead was wide and flat again.

"what!"

"ah!"

"what-"

Suddenly there was a series of exclamations from behind, very close, at most two meters away from them!

The leader didn't turn his head, as if he hadn't heard.

Xu Wang was mentally prepared, and knew that there must be a problem with the appearance of a work team on the alley. So there is no mess at this time. But Yu Guangli found that Wu Sheng's figure swayed the moment he screamed.

Xu Wang wasn't prepared for this, he was stunned and just wanted to ask aloud, but Wu Sheng steadied again, his pace was firm again, the flash just now was like an illusion.

Putting down his doubts temporarily, Xu Wang continued to follow the leader closely.

There are only the leader and two ALICE in front, and the rest are behind them.

What happened behind him, he really wanted to know, but in order to live, he would never look back.

After ten seconds, they reached the end of the tree-lined path. The leader suddenly stopped and turned around, as if he had finally remembered that he was still with the team, and looked past them with concern and looked to the rear.

Seeing the leader turn back, Xu Wang dared to turn his neck to check the scene behind him.

The originally compact large force has been divided into three parts.

Part of it is the first phalanx they follow the leader of the team; part of it is the people who walk forward while watching the excitement, because the onlookers have slowed down, so they are sparsely out of formation; there are six people who are at the end, they should be screaming. The few of them stayed beside the workers' work area. Some were sitting on the ground and gasping for air, while others were still crying. They were all busy holding their feet anyway, like something stuck to the soles of their shoes.

At this moment, the ground suddenly trembled slightly.

Then there was a huge "bang", and the entire section of the operation area collapsed!

Xu Wang watched helplessly as the four workers and the six friends who were stranded nearby were instantly engulfed in a deep pit, and he didn't even have time to call for help!

The collapsed road was only a dozen meters away from where he was standing at the moment!

And the vibration of the ground did not stop with the collapse of the work area, but became more and more intense!

"No, the whole road is going to collapse—" A donkey who was closest to the collapsed area let out a sigh, spread his legs and ran forward!

Seeing this, other ALICE friends also started to run.

The leader is faster because at the front of the team, a sprint has completely left the tree-lined path and ran onto the wider pedestrian street.

Wu Sheng wanted to remind his little friends not to move, but when he turned his head, he found that he didn't need to remind him at all, and all his teammates didn't move, obviously "experienced".

At the same time, I heard a prompt in my ear—

[Owl: Someone used the on you~~]

This is Xu Wang's stationery.

At the same time, all the small partners will be lighter, and their feet will slowly leave the ground.

Just seconds after they vacated the air, the entire boulevard collapsed.

Except for them, all the surviving ALICE comrades have already run off the path and merged into the walking trail.

Xu Wang manipulated the armor and led his teammates to float the last part of the road. Just as he caught up with the tail of the large group, a strong wind suddenly blew!

The large advertising light box hanging outside the building in front was knocked down by the strong wind and was smashed in front of the team!

The five people in the first phalanx, except for the leader at the front, were all pressed under the light box!

The wind stopped without warning, as suddenly as it had come.

The noise is gone, and the world is quiet again.

Blood is slowly flowing out from under the light box...

The five partners floated in the air about 20 centimeters above the ground. Although they expected it, they were still afraid.

If they ran after the leader just now, it is themselves who are now lying under the light box.

In less than five minutes, ten people died. The death toll rose to sixteen.

After drifting along the walking path for about ten minutes, the five partners and the remaining ALICE friends, led by the team leader, arrived at the bathing center.

As soon as he entered the lobby of the bathing center, Xu Wang was ready to disarm his armor. But as soon as he closed his eyes, before he could concentrate on contemplation, Wu Sheng stopped him: "Don't lift it yet."

Xu Wang was surprised, but he knew that Wu Sheng must have his own reasons, so he didn't ask more, just lowered the floating height a little, let five people float close to the ground, and looked like they were following the big army.

Just like this, he followed the leader all the way into the elevator, until he reached the fifth floor where the men's bath was located, and entered the locker room. With the permission of Wu Sheng's eyes, Xu Wang removed his armor.

The five partners finally landed.

Several male ALICE around, including the leader, have begun to undress.

Xu Wang took a slow breath, thinking that he could finally ask Wu Sheng why he had to float. Unexpectedly, Qian Ai and Kuang Jinxin were both faster than him, and the two partners who had endured all the way, spoke out almost at the same time—

Kuang Jinxin: "Brother Sheng, do you know what happened before the road collapsed?"

Qian Ai: "What the hell did those guys step on when they were walking along the tree-lined road, and they stopped there and didn't leave when they shouted?"

Xu Wang supported his forehead, thinking that when something happened later, Wu Sheng didn't look back. No matter how smart he was, he couldn't have eyes on the back of his head.

Just as he was muttering, he heard Wu Sheng say, "They stepped on a nail."

Xu Wang looked at his military advisor unexpectedly: "Did you see nails on the ground when you were passing that section?"

"I didn't see it." Wu Sheng found the nearest bench and sat down.

Xu Wang didn't understand: "Then how do you know?"

Wu Sheng raised Erlang's legs, bent down and took off one of his shoes, showing the stud cap with a cold light on the sole of the shoe: "Because I stepped on it too."

Chi Yingxue, Kuang Jinxin, Qian Ai: "..."

Xu Wang widened his eyes: "Didn't it stick to the soles of your feet at all?"

Wu Sheng thought about it for a moment, and said, "Take a little bit."

"Then don't you take off your shoes immediately?!" Xu Wang was extremely skeptical about this "one point"!

Wu Sheng shook his head: "Any unnecessary action may distract people and lead to unexpected risks."

Xu Wang wanted to beat him!

But what he did was to take off the other party's backpack and rummage through the medical box.

Qian Ai took two steps closer and looked at the shoes that were thrown on the ground. The spikes in the shoes were definitely not "a little bit". Just looking at them made his feet feel distressed.

Chi Yingxue looked at the nails in the shoes, and then looked at Wu Sheng, whose face remained unchanged, a little surprised.

Kuang Jinxin was a little worried: "Brother Sheng, you will find a plastic bag or something to wrap it in a while, and don't touch the water. When you leave the owl, you can quickly get a tetanus shot."

"Okay." According to scientific advice, Wu Sheng was happy to accept it.

"It would be nice to have a healing stationery." Qian Ai scratched his head irritably. There were a lot of stationery in the team, but none of the healing class was left. It's not that they were wasted, it's just that injuries are too frequent.

"It's alright," Wu Sheng didn't care, "It hurts better, especially this one, the pain can make people more alert."

Qian Ai: "… "

He finally understood why people could be leaders, find a partner, and show affection.

If a man wants to be successful, he has to be tough on himself.
