Infinite Doomsday Escape

Chapter 434 Seven Days Limit

Once someone realizes something is wrong, they won't be able to observe for too long because the lights will quickly turn on, and the extreme contrast between light and dark will completely hide everything around them.

After realizing this, Lan Xiaye patiently waited for the lights to turn off after each performance.

She used this time to observe the shadows around her and found that they were like puppets and stones. They would only applaud after the performance and would sit upright and motionless at other times.

Lan Xiaye's voice transmission could not reach them, just like touching a dead object without consciousness.

What exactly are they?

Lan Xiaye took advantage of the lights out time, plucked up her courage, reached out and touched it.

Although the rules seem to warn the actors in the audience not to move, if they behave inconsistently with theatrical etiquette, they will explode and die.

But during the brief period of blackout after the performance, Lan Xiaye thought that all the original rules would be invalid.

Theater etiquette, literally, is only used during performances.

So now it's lights out time, no matter what Lan Xiaye does, it will be safe.

Fortunately, she won the bet.

Lan Xiaye's hand crossed over her seat and reached the seat of the person next to her. She did not die in the explosion.

When doing this, Lan Xiaye held his breath, fearing that he had made a wrong bet and died so casually.

Seeing that he was safe and sound, Lan Xiaye breathed a sigh of relief and focused on observing the fake audience in the black shadow, even reaching out to touch it.

The touch of the fake audience is different from that of the normal actor's transformed shadow. Lan Xiaye touched her own body after turning into a shadow, and it felt like jelly with a slightly cool touch.

The fake audience felt cold and hard, like a rock. It did not react at all when Lan Xiaye touched it.

Something is definitely wrong.

Lan Xiaye was about to take her hand away when suddenly a reflection flashed from the fake audience.

I saw the lights on the beams start to turn around and were about to turn on.

Lan Xiaye's heart was beating like thunder. She didn't want to let go of this clue! What if the clue disappeared after the lights were turned off next time?

Don't waste this opportunity!

Lan Xiaye raced against time and quickly felt for the reflective parts on the fake audience.

While she was groping with her hands, she was also paying attention to the movement of the light on the beam.

brush--

The light gradually brightened, Lan Xiaye decisively withdrew his hand and sat up straight.

In less than a second, the lights came on again and the show continued.

Lan Xiaye's intense heartbeat gradually calmed down. She felt the rustling touch of the sand in her hand and slowly smiled.

got it.

Lan Xiaye took a look in the dim light and found that it was a piece of rough cloth.

There were a few large words written on it in blood.

——Seven days of signs.

The three big characters were crooked and it was obvious that they were written quickly in a hurry.

There is a hint of blue in the blood, probably due to the peculiar nature of the bloodline, which causes it to reflect light in the dark.

Lan Xiaye looked at the three big words and made a bold guess.

The meaning of "seven days" is very simple, it is a time limit.

Could "兆" mean to escape? Because time is tight and there is no time to finish writing it.

So what these three words mean is that you must escape from the Dusk Theater within seven days?

As a battlefield, the Dusk Theater actually has a time limit?

This is too wrong.

Also, what will happen if you don’t escape from the Twilight Theater within seven days?

Lan Xiaye looked at the motionless shadows of the audience beside her, and suddenly a terrible idea came to her mind.

——Perhaps if you don’t escape from the Dusk Theater within seven days, you will become a real audience, a fake audience without thoughts, soul, and only able to applaud.

The shadow disguise will be completely integrated into the actor's bones and blood until the two can no longer be separated.

Lan Xiaye felt uneasy about her own guess. If this was true, then everyone would be in danger. Such a huge and terrifying power of rules could not be defied by ordinary people.

Now no one knows how long everyone stayed in the Twilight Theater.

There are no natural celestial phenomena such as the sun and the moon for the actors to guess the time, and there is no timer.

The uninterrupted stage performances of varying durations further blur the actors' concept of time.

A lot of time may have passed, or not.

Lan Xiaye calculated the length of time and roughly estimated that they stayed in the Dusk Theater for at least two full days.

I must escape within seven days, but how?

The sense of urgency and powerlessness made Lan Xiaye feel a long-lost impatience.

She realized that this strange theater could not be escaped from by one person alone.

We must unite everyone's strength, find more clues together, pool everyone's strengths, and break the rules together!

So now, Lan Xiaye needs to find his teammates.

First, gather the strength that you trust in yourself, and then expand other allies.

Lan Xiaye had been watching the performance attentively, and she had some guesses about the positions of Cai Cai, Qiu Yulong and Xie Yuanan.

The trio appeared in three separate performances.

Among them, Xie Yuanan killed the whole audience in seconds and returned to his seat, so Lan Xiaye had already decided on his seat.

But Cai Cai and Qiu Yulong were not the only ones who survived the performance, many shadows returned to their seats together.

Lan Xia Ye arranged the combinations in her mind and eliminated the wrong ones, just like doing a test, further narrowing down the range of guesses about Qiu Yulong and Cai Cai's seats.

In the end, since she couldn't be sure, Lan Xiaye decided to try and error by sending a message.

【Xie Yuanan, I am Lan Xiaye. 】

Xie Yuanan was very surprised when he received Lan Xiaye's voice transmission: [Commander Lan, what do you need me to do? ]

Lan Xiaye told Xie Yuanan her guess and asked him to look in the seat next to him when the lights were turned off to see if he could find any different clues.

Xie Yuanan agreed immediately.

Then Lan Xiaye sent a message to the seat she guessed and started trial and error.

[Is it Caicai? ]

[Who are you?] The strange voice came over quickly, and the other party was very perceptive and immediately asked: [Are you looking for your companions? Have you found any clues?]

Lan Xiaye: [Yes.]

She replied cautiously and stopped paying attention to the person who kept sending messages.

Next, Lan Xiaye successfully found Cai Cai and Qiu Yulong, and after sharing the clues, she responded to the unfamiliar actors.

The voice was a female one. She sent several messages in succession, using threats and inducements, trying to get Lan Xiaye to share the clues.

Seeing that Lan Xiaye had been ignoring her, the actress immediately changed her words.

[We exchange clues. As long as you are willing to share the clues with me, I will tell you a piece of news I discovered. ]

Lan Xiaye then became interested.

【Is it authentic? 】

[Of course!] Finally getting a reply from Lan Xiaye, the actress was very excited and replied immediately.

Lan Xiaye agreed. Exchanging clues could at least reduce the risk of the actress suddenly backstabbing and reporting to the director.
