Chapter 43 The Essentials of Escaping: Outrunning Others

Lin Sui'an crouched behind the bushes, his eyes fixed on the prop that had rolled into the grass.

It is a black sphere.

It's not far, only five or six meters.

The ice tree retracted the branch that had been stuck to the yellow-skinned man's back, shook off the bloodstains, and its roots crawled forward along the ground.

Instead of killing the remaining two survivors, he rushed straight towards the scorching hot wooden crate.

The box was the biggest heat source in the entire venue, with a temperature much higher than that of a human body.

The branches of the ice tree shot high, whipping wildly against the box lid, sending wood chips flying everywhere.

The two players were terrified and scrambled to escape eastward for their lives.

No one is taking care of the props.

Lin Sui'an moved. She lowered her body, silently slipped out of the bushes, and quickly walked to the edge of the grass.

He reached out and grabbed the round ball in his hand; it felt icy cold. He then stuffed it into a hidden pocket on his waist.

succeed.

She looked up and glanced at it.

The ice tree continued its relentless smashing of the box, the barbs on its branches scraping against the box walls, the harsh friction echoing through the forest.

This monster's brain is entirely powered by heat.

Lin Sui'an turned around, preparing to retreat in another direction.

[The three-minute countdown has ended.]

The system's voice suddenly sounded.

[The retention period has expired; unclaimed treasure chests have been retrieved.]

Just as Lin Sui'an stepped out with his right foot, the box behind him that was being frantically whipped by the ice tree, along with the pillar of light in the sky, disappeared.

With a "whoosh," it disappeared.

The high temperature in the air suddenly subsided.

Without thinking, Lin Sui'an pushed off the ground with his toes and shot out like an arrow.

With the largest heat source gone, the remaining heat source became the most conspicuous target.

The ice tree's thick trunk spun halfway around, locking onto three living people running ahead.

The fallen leaves underfoot rustled underfoot, and the rustling sound behind me grew louder and louder.

The two players had just finished fighting and were exhausted, so they were staggering as they ran.

Lin Sui'an's breathing was steady, and her pace was not disordered. Soon, she squeezed through the gap on the left, passed the two people, and ran to the front.

"Help!"

"Get out of here!"

The curses behind him turned into screams.

Ice Tree caught up.

A branch covered in thorns slashed down diagonally and pierced straight into the thigh of the last man running.

"ah--!"

The man fell to the ground, his hands gripping the soil tightly.

The branch was pulled back, tearing a large gash through the skin and flesh.

The second branch followed closely behind, piercing his back and exiting through his chest.

The man convulsed twice, then became still.

The ice tree did not stop, stringing the still-warm corpses onto its branches, its roots continuing to tumble about.

Lin Sui'an's brain was working at lightning speed.

The tinderbox was given to Lina.

It can't be lit.

There is no pool in this area.

Two legs can't outrun tree roots that are like wheels.

The ice tree targets heat sources; as long as it has warmth, the monster will relentlessly bite down on it.

Can't run away.

Lin Sui'an's fingers reached for another hidden pocket on his waist.

There was a card there.

Transformation Card

Transform into an ice tree, and your body temperature disappears, making your heat source invisible, but you cannot transform in front of an ice tree.

Although this monster has no eyes, if a moving heat source suddenly disappears in front of it and is replaced by an ice tree, this brainless thing might just recognize its identity!

She couldn't take that risk. She needed cover, a blind spot, to temporarily block the ice tree's heat perception, even if it was just for a few seconds.

Directly ahead, a large brown tree, as thick as three people could hug, stands tall in the forest.

The location is perfect.

"Help!"

The screams behind me rang out again.

The second player was caught up.

The branches of the ice tree hooked around his ankles, suspending him upside down in mid-air.

The man frantically scratched, trying to untie the branches from his feet.

A splinter got stuck in a blood vessel.

He struggled incessantly, and two more branches simultaneously pierced through his abdomen and shoulder.

Blood fell like rain.

good chance!

Lin Sui'an turned around and changed his route, heading straight for the thick, brown tree.

Five steps.

Three steps.

She went around to the back of the tree trunk and leaned against the rough bark.

The screams from behind had already faded away.

Lin Sui'an's fingers picked up the card.

"use."

The card transformed into a black and white streak of light, enveloping the entire body.

A strange pulling sensation appeared. Lin Sui'an looked down and saw that his legs began to harden, and his skin turned into a layer of gray tree bark.

Horizontal lines spread across it.

Its feet sank into the soil, becoming a thick root system.

The torso lengthened and became more upright.

With arms outstretched, they become twisted branches, and leaves grow rapidly from the fingertips, their edges studded with sharp thorns.

Transformation complete.

A standard, chilly gray-barked ice tree stood behind the large brown tree.

"Clatter—"

On the other side, the ice tree had just killed the second player, linked them together, and was about to continue chasing the last prey when it discovered that the prey had disappeared.

Ok?

It turned the tree trunk, looking around and searching, but the prey was indeed gone.

After Lin Sui'an transformed into an ice tree, her vision changed. She no longer had eyes, but she could still see everything around her clearly.

A heat-based holographic sensing method.

She sensed the real ice tree approaching.

The rustling sound of footsteps echoed as they trod on the fallen leaves.

It threw down the two corpses and climbed towards the big tree.

Lin Sui'an took a deep breath, walked around from behind the tree, and came face to face with the ice tree.

The True Ice Tree looked at the Ice Tree that had suddenly appeared, somewhat puzzled. Had the last prey been intercepted?

The branches of the real ice tree waved twice in the air, the leaves rubbing against each other, as if it were a kind of probing or a kind of communication.

Lin Sui'an couldn't understand it, but it wasn't a big problem!

Because she could still sense that the two corpses were warm, Lin Sui'an ignored the ice tree and went straight for the corpses.

Upon seeing this, Zhenbingshu rushed over even faster without saying a word, strung the two corpses together, and hid behind him as if on guard.

Then it turned its massive root system, carrying the corpse, and crawled away to the west.

The rustling sound gradually subsided.

Lin Sui'an breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems there are KPIs among the Ice Trees too! Otherwise, why would they be so nervous about the corpses?

Oh dear, she should also string together a corpse to make it look more real.

hee hee~

The chat in the Dragon Kingdom's live stream room surged again.

momo: I was so scared! I didn't even dare to breathe!

Never eaten vegetables: Who can argue with that? I haven't even typed anything yet, and when I touched my hands just now, they were all sweaty!

An Shen yyds: Phew~ I was terrified when I saw the ice tree chasing me, and I breathed a sigh of relief when I saw An Shen transform. I was terrified again when I saw the ice tree still trying to test An Shen, and I breathed a sigh of relief when I saw An Shen cleverly resolve the situation. My God, even a roller coaster isn't this exciting!

Don't Talk to Me: An Shen is so amazing, starry-eyed jpg. ✧٩(ˊωˋ*)و✧

An Shen, my idol: Ahhhhh, my idol is so amazing! Awwwww~

I Love America: Pshaw! Didn't you guys see that she chose the same direction as the other two players? If she had changed direction, maybe the other two players wouldn't have died!

Ancestor from Zu'an: ? Where did this idiot come from? Go to hell! Oh, from America? What, your dad died again? So you're here looking for attention?

An Shen's Little Fan: The person upstairs is so mean! Also, sob sob sob, An Shen, I love you!

Go China! Transformation is good, transformation is good! Less than an hour left, keep going!
