Three grey icons appeared in front of each player.
They were icons of a bear, a fish, and a nail respectively.
As the Light Orb’s voice fell, Shen Mo’s fish icon got illuminated, and Bai Youwei’s bear and nail icons got illuminated as well.
This was consistent with the guests they had invited.
The Light Orb reluctantly shifted toward Bai Youwei, its voice icy: “Congrats, you are now the master of the Dollhouse.
Ding!
The icons vanished, and a golden key materialized out of thin air and fell into Bai Youwei’s palm.
The moment she touched the key, relevant information abruptly appeared in her mind:
[Dollhouse Key: Turn the key clockwise half a turn to open the Dollhouse in any space.]
Bai Youwei gripped tightly onto the golden key, an idea popping up in her mind.
The scene in front of her began to warp, becoming detached and illusory, eventually transforming into a vast white light.
As the light faded, they were back at the corner where it had all started.
Upon seeing the familiar streets which they had been away from for several days, they all appeared stunned.
Shen Mo picked up the gold coin by the roadside. It was the very same coin that had brought them into the game.
The gold coin was still a gold coin, but it was now dull and its words faded. Holding it produced no reaction.
“The game is shut down. This gold coin is probably completely out of commission now,” Yan Qingwen walked over and said.
“Let’s keep it as a souvenir.” Shen Mo turned around, came to the still unconscious Tan Xiao, bent down, and placed the gold coin in his pocket.
Looking at Tan Xiao, Yan Qingwen reassured Shen Mo, “Don’t worry, we have sustained worse injuries before. After leaving the Maze, the self-healing ability is very strong. It just takes time. You guys just need to take good care of him for the next few days.”
Shen Mo asked him, “How is Su Man’s injuries recovery going?”
Yan Qingwen frowned slightly and looked at Su Man who was not far away, ” It’s not very promising. Her hand bones are almost pulverized. Even if we used tools to reconnect them, I’m afraid she won’t be able to use her whip in the future.”
Not only could she not use her whip, the right hand likely wouldn’t be able to exert any strength for a long time.
“Being alive is enough.” Yan Qingwen murmured under his breath.
With a game instance exceeding normal difficulty, ten people entered, and ten people exited, this alone was enough for them to be grateful.
“What are your plans now?” Yan Qingwen asked.
Shen Mo looked around, finally resting his eyes on Bai Youwei.
She sat on the side of the road, sans her wheelchair, looking rather rough. At the moment she was glaring at him unhappily.
Shen Mo chuckled, “Next I need to find a wheelchair.”
On the first day they exited the Dollhouse, the two teams camped and rested together.
On Yan Qingwen’s side, most of the players were injured and needed rest.
On Shen Mo’s side, since Tan Xiao was unconscious and Bai Youwei without her wheelchair was immobile, their team also needed to regain their strength.
A bonfire blazed brightly in the night, under a sky filled with twinkling stars.
They all gathered around the bonfire, engaging in leisurely conversation, discussing both their gains and losses.
“They say the rewards would be great, but all we got was a snowflake ” Li Li said sullenly while holding the icily cold snowflake, reading out its effect. ” only the snowflake can invite the guests of winter, and the guest of winter leaves when the snowflake dissolves. What kind of guests are the winter guests? Are they more brutal than the Nail Tooth Monster?”
“That should be enough. Didn’t we also eat the fish and pick up the beads?” Lun Ang consoled, “Plus, we are lucky to be alive. Who cares about the rewards ”
Li Li frowned, “It’s not the same, wasn’t it so difficult for us to make it out! You hurt your leg, Su Man hurt her hand, Zhu Shu and I both nearly lost our lives! If it wasn’t for the tools ”
“The loss this time was indeed significant.” Yan Qingwen lifted his gaze towards Shen Mo’s side, “If it wasn’t for the tools, some of us might have been dead already.”
