Deep in the Living-Chapter 464 - 452 Plan Change

"Squad Leader, should we abandon the vehicle and walk back, or..."

Luo Di looked at the living vehicle head now replaced by a balloon and turned to ask Wu Wen still sitting in the carriage. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓

"The vehicle’s been affected since Luo Di started checking the data, which was just after our departure.

The route’s already veered off course, so walking back might take an unknown amount of time with no clear direction.

We might as well wake Lebeite, and based on his family’s intuition, seek refuge at Invisible Manor first.

If we’re lucky, we might find a ride in Corner City along the way.

Once we rest at the manor for a while and Hua Yuan wakes up, we can return to the Sisterhood."

"Walking would take at least three days, it’s far... crossing such a distance on foot in the corners could be extremely dangerous, even several times more so than killing clowns."

Lebeite also sensed the anomaly and woke up at this moment.

Though he and Wu Wen are monsters living in the Middle Area, they merely reside there; the corners are unknown territory for them.

The Middle Area, currently the largest Corner Area,

is full of unknowns, dangers, and even zones certain to result in death. Any active creatures here must meticulously plan their routes before heading out.

"Let’s get off the vehicle and discuss."

Unable to determine where the vehicle was heading, Luo Di prepared to jump off when the smiling balloon made a harsh noise through friction.

"The amusement park will be reached in twenty minutes, please don’t hurry to get off, passengers."

Just as the words fell,

everyone in the carriage had already jumped off.

The living vehicle abruptly turned its head, and the smiling balloon transformed into an angry face.

"Didn’t I tell you not to get off? You’re making me so annoyed!"

The vehicle began accelerating, maximizing its speed and continually expanding its body, threatening to explode upon impact.

If attacked, it might also explode.

Lebeite frowned; his ability should handle such sudden incidents, and in a defensive stance with arms poised ahead.

He saw someone not retreating but instead walking towards the balloon-controlled living vehicle.

Smack!

A violent sound of blood and flesh collision echoed.

There was no explosion, no blood splatter.

The vehicle, now nearly tripled in size, was forcibly halted.

Blocking it was the Squad Leader in an extreme lunge, feet firmly planted, arms stretched to stop the vehicle.

Layers of visible blood-red ripples released from her palms acted on the vehicle’s body, suppressing the blood and flesh to prevent an explosion.

Following this, another figure flashed by.

The left arm entwined with wire plunged into the vehicle’s tip, finding the end of the balloon string and pulling it out.

The moment the balloon separated, the vehicle immediately deflated, danger eliminated.

Luo Di did not destroy the balloon but tied it to a beast trap separate from himself.

Since the balloon could talk, maybe they could have a conversation.

"Oh dear, oh dear~ I’m really sorry, I didn’t mean to crash into you, the car suddenly lost control. Would you believe this reason?"

The balloon kept apologizing, with a fawning expression.

"Are you the clown?"

"Huh? I’m not the great Uncle Joke, I’m just the 1,000,000th balloon he made... I’m kidding~ I don’t know which number, anyway, there are many balloons, and I’m one of them.

My task is only one, to take you to the amusement park.

If I fail, I will Boom!

So please give me this chance, tie me to your hand, I will lead you to the amusement park! Uncle Joke will be there to welcome you.

Of course, I absolutely won’t take the opportunity to invade your body, invade your skin, penetrate your brains.

Oops~ Did I say something wrong?"

Just when Luo Di was about to destroy the balloon before him,

"Let me try." Lebeite stepped forward, manually opened the Hell Beast Catcher, and tied the balloon string to his hand.

Upon contact, the balloon’s expression immediately turned vicious, the string wrapped around the arm piercing the skin like a needle.

The balloon itself deflated into a red substance, flowing into Lebeite’s body along the string.

The whole process completed in one second.

Next, Lebeite’s arm and abdomen began inflating like balloons, seemingly being assimilated to cause a human explosion.

Burp~

A slight belch emitted from his mouth.

A rubber scent was expelled,

The swollen body returned to normal as though the balloon was digested.

Lebeite pointed ahead,

"This guy didn’t lie to us, the remaining balloon scent points roughly ten kilometers away, that should be where the amusement park is... Why don’t we skip returning to the Sisterhood and go directly there? Last night’s sleep was completely sufficient.

I happened to eat meat at the supermarket, deal with this before getting hungry, that’d be ideal."

Although Luo Di was surprised by Lebeite’s ability, the situation required more consideration, especially since Hua Yuan hadn’t truly awakened.

The other party is part of the Eight Evil People, this matter must be handled cautiously.

Just as Luo Di was about to propose a safer option,

the Squad Leader unexpectedly walked over from afar, even though she was just standing by his side.

"This area... has undergone a complete lockdown, forming a complex and enclosed ’Regional Space’ similar to the Shallow Area.

To get out, we must find the ’exit.’

The opponent probably anticipated this step, so even if we jumped the vehicle early, we couldn’t escape, we can only continue moving forward.

Aside from Hua Yuan who is still asleep, we’re prepared, going directly isn’t a bad choice, what do you say Luo Di?"

Luo Di sat directly on the coffin, his mind racing.

Suddenly he figured something out, and his gaze turned to Wu Wen,

"Squad Leader... you did this deliberately."

"Oh?"

"Your abilities couldn’t miss such an anomalous blood-flesh vehicle, you intentionally didn’t warn us until we reached the closed-off area to play as if discovering the vehicle head’s issue.

Right?"

Wu Wen revealed her professional smile, "Hua Yuan can’t go back, can she? What happened to her in the supermarket is unique, even hiding it from me, probably to hide from Grandma too, clearly going back is inadequate.

Better to head over now, don’t you agree?

Furthermore, don’t misunderstand. I’m not deceiving you, sometimes strategic deception is a great choice.

At least from my view, now is the best time for action."

Luo Di looked at the coffin beneath him, "What about Hua Yuan? Do I drag the coffin to the amusement park, or wait here for her to wake up?"

"Didn’t you talk last night?

Roughly how long till she wakes, you have some idea, right? Waiting here would waste an unknown amount of time, moreover, that clown will certainly exploit this time to target us.

I suggest going directly,

The coffin serves as a hidden trump card,

Even if Hua Yuan is still asleep, she can defensively react instinctively, plus ordinary people can’t open this coffin."

Wu Wen kicked the coffin over ten meters away, then jogged to drag it back.

The coffin lid didn’t budge, the coffin itself was undamaged.

"Supermarket production, quality assured... without Hua Yuan’s permission, the coffin lid is difficult to open."

"Okay, let’s go."

Luo Di chose to trust the Squad Leader’s judgment,

While Lebeite seemed to notice something, he distanced himself deliberately and walked ahead, hands in pockets, whistling.

Beneath his seemingly casual expression lay a hint of excitement.

He smelled something,

A scent that filled him with exhilarating danger.
