Chapter 52 4.8 Act One

The curtain on the stage was very tall, as if it was covering some kind of building.

"Hello, audience friends!" The pink clown said while spinning on the stage, "Welcome everyone to come to our circus performance again today. Please invite today's distinguished guests——

"Today there are still two groups of guests, a total of four people. One group is selected by voting, and the other group is the lucky ones randomly selected by the circus.

"Mr. Opfon and Ms. Zwitter are the partners of Opfon & Co perfume factory. Because your perfume smells bad and expensive, you have been voted gold card winners. Congratulations. I wish you a good time. "

The spotlight shone on the two pale-faced figures, both of whom seemed to be trembling slightly.

"Mr. Yeager and Miss Linton, it's the first time for the two to come to the circus. The original lucky couple, Mr. and Mrs. Grouse, couldn't attend due to some reasons, and transferred them to their friends, so that the two can become our lucky ones. guest.

"What a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, what a touching friendship!"

The spotlight was on Mr. Yeager and Miss Linton.

Mr. Yeager squinted his eyes and looked towards the auditorium. After entering the arena, the audience held up half masks, gracefully blocking the upper half of their faces, but the whole picture looked very gloomy.

"Then the game has officially started!" The spotlight returned to the pink clown, and he spun around happily.

"The game is divided into three parts. As long as someone wins the game, everyone will automatically enter the next game. If no one wins, then all the audience will enter the banquet. Do the guests have any questions about the rules?"

"Ahem... What are the conditions for winning the game?" Mr. Yeager coughed twice, and asked slowly in an old voice.

"The conditions for winning the game? Every level is different~" The clown blinked, "But there are two situations of failure. One is death, and the other is losing the game. Of course, the final outcome is still the same. "

The pink clown waved his hand towards the backstage, only to see a crying clown covered in blue came out, the corners of his mouth were curled downward fiercely, drooping corners of the eyes and exaggerated big teardrops were painted on his face with oil paint, He held a huge scythe in his hand. The black scythe looked very old, and it seemed to be stained with blood that had turned black.

The pink clown said: "Blue clown, I will help you losers to do all this~"

Mr. Yeager glanced at the audience, and the corners of most people's mouths were raised, obviously very satisfied with this arrangement.

"Then if there are no more questions, let's enter our official performance!" The pink clown bounced back to the side.

The curtain slowly opened, and a huge stage was displayed in front of everyone.

The entire stage is at least the size of two football fields, but the stage is actually a lush jungle.

At the same time as the curtain was opened, the auditorium was slowly raised, tilted 30 degrees, and then each row was separated to form a whole row of wrap-around aerial auditorium, which can have a glimpse of the internal scene.

The audience still held up various masks and looked at everything with a smile.

Miss Linton, who kept her head up and defiant, looked at these masks, and saw that they reflected all kinds of refracted light under the light, which made her feel a little glaring.

She lowered her head slightly and looked towards the jungle.

The trees in the jungle grow very strangely, with short trunks and long twisted branches. When you look closely, the branches are twisting softly, rolling up and stretching out, like a python, waiting ready to go. Wants to scoop up prey that is about to fall into its mouth.

At first glance, the leaves are colorful and beautiful, but when you look closely, they are full of scary eyes patterns.

In the depths of the forest, there seemed to be many red spots of light, as if terrifying beasts were dormant in them.

In front of the forest on the stage, there is a path in front of the four, which seems to be the entrance.

"We... are we going in?" Mr. Opfon's voice trembled, "Can't we not go?"

"I... clown, can I quit this company? Or can our company go bankrupt directly?" Ms. Zweit's voice was full of tears.

"Hee hee, of course!" The clown laughed, paused, and continued, "But you are still the protagonists today!"

When they heard "Of course it's ok", the eyes of the two of them instantly burst into bright light, but when they heard "today's protagonist", the light suddenly went out again, as if the ending had been decided, the eyes No more life.

"Joker, the rules of the first game." Miss Linton asked coldly without even looking at the clown, "Say it or not?"

"Oh, I almost forgot." The clown said unhurriedly, "I'll just say it. Don't worry about the guests~"

What the people on the stage didn't know was that there were whispers and laughter one after another in the circular auditorium at this time.

"This woman dares to order the pink clown. Is she the first?"

"Are you used to arrogance? After all, the old man looks rich, but he didn't receive a formal invitation like us. He should be an upstart."

"The newcomers are really newborn calves who are not afraid of tigers. Let them know the dangers of the circus later."

"Isn't it? No one who got the gold card survived."

The pink clown took out a crumpled piece of paper and read:
[First level, monster forest.Please find the exit of the forest within 1 hour. 】

[This is a monster forest with many forked roads and full of carnivorous birds. There are hundreds of birds of different sizes in it. 】

[If you are unfortunate enough to run into a branch blocking the way, it will reach out to you, tie you up, and enshrine it to its resident carnivorous birds. 】

[These very hungry birds will not stop eating until there are only bones left. Can you fill their stomachs? 】

[Reminder, it's hard to walk in the dark in the forest, but don't get hurt!Birds will flock to you as soon as they smell your blood in any corner of the forest. 】

[Just like there are aquatic plants and piranhas at the bottom of the river, just like there are seaweeds and sharks in the sea, there are also trees and predatory birds in the monster forest. 】

[Now, please enter the forest~ The countdown has begun! 】

The audience held up their masks and leaned forward.

Mr. Opfon and Ms. Zwitter were already weak in their legs, staggering and trying to turn around and run away in despair.I saw the blue clown on the side stepping forward with a knife, staring at them, as if they were taking a step outside, and the sickle would mercilessly pierce their bodies.

"It might be happier this way..." Ms. Zwitt murmured, staring at the blue clown.

Mr. Opfon was already trembling and speechless.

On the other hand, the new couple with a large age gap is very calm.

The young woman raised her chin proudly and helped the old man move forward with one hand.

I just don’t know whether it’s because the woman didn’t hold her steady, or the old man was too old—this old Mr. Yeager fell at the gate of the forest with Miss Linton’s support in one hand and a cane in the other. There was a big fall.

The appearance of the old man falling was very funny, the crutch slipped out, the woman was also pulled to a stagger, and the auditorium erupted into loud laughter.

The pink clown interjected at the right time: "This old gentleman, please slow down. The little bird inside can still endure hunger for a while!"

The audience roared with laughter again.

But the laughter quickly died down, followed by a burst of exclamation.

They first heard the hoarse chirping of birds, and then saw a strange sight.

——The forest on the stage ignited a raging fire.
