This scene was indeed a bit terrifying.
"Hiss, rule pollution?"
Xia Hongyao was all too familiar with this situation.
"Little Linzi, we must find the Taboo things as soon as possible."
Xia Hongyao turned her head and looked at Lin Baici. Her body had gone numb; it wasn’t the rule pollution that scared her, but the concern for how many people would die if the God’s Taboo Game erupted in this residential area?
Lin Baici looked around.
On the lawn, many stray dogs were frolicking and barking joyfully.
It was almost like the venue for an international dog expo, with many breeds Lin Baici had never seen before.
In the stairwell, two bold men peeked out, looking up the stairs.
"What’s up with these damn dogs?"
"Fuck, it stinks so bad, can people still live here?"
"Honey, come back quickly and lock the door!"
A girl, worried about her boyfriend’s safety, hid at the door and urged him.
The boy intended to return but had only taken a few steps when the scene in front of him changed.
The room was gone, replaced by a place that resembled a park, with grass under his feet.
A gentle breeze blew, feeling exceptionally refreshing.
One girl saw him and immediately ran over.
People began to appear on the lawn one after another, and even the little boats on the lake had figures in them, looking over in this direction.
But soon, some dogs began to target these people.
The stray dogs barked loudly, and like shepherds herding sheep, they drove the people toward the Ferris wheel.
Xia Hongyao watched as five dogs bared their teeth at her and Lin Baici, ready to pounce and kill at any moment.
Lin Baici prepared to see what the rule pollution was about. With at least a thousand dogs seen so far, there was no way to kill them all.
[Yeehaw, delivery to your door, start receiving your meal!]
The Eater God was excited: [Let’s eat! Let’s eat!]
The dogs seemed to have a sense of spirit; as long as everyone ran towards the Ferris wheel, they wouldn’t attack, but if anyone tried to leave or ran to the wrong place, they would immediately be herded back.
"Run towards the base of the Ferris wheel, and you won’t get bitten!"
Xia Hongyao shouted, and similar voices began to rise up around them.
Five minutes later, more than three hundred people had gathered under the Ferris wheel.
"What... what place is this?"
The old security guard pulled out a pack of cigarettes and saw that it was the expensive kind he had saved for the evening. Not willing to smoke it, he put it back in his pocket, took out his White Sand brand, lit one, and held it in his mouth.
After taking a puff, the old security guard calmed down.
"I was clearly playing a game; why did I end up here?"
"Fuck, did we time travel?"
Everyone was clamoring, as the events unfolding before them were too preposterous.
"The current situation is that we’ve encountered rule pollution. Please stay calm; that will increase our chances of survival," Xia Hongyao shouted, reminding everyone.
"Rule pollution, what’s that?"
"OMG, I’ve seen a post about this before, but by the time I finished reading it and wanted to save it, the post had already been deleted."
"How can we get out of here? I still have deliveries to make!"
The crowd surrounded Xia Hongyao, bombarding her with questions.
Lin Baici counted; more than three hundred people, most of whom were couples, seemed to be college students from Haijing Polytechnic.
There were about a dozen older couples, who looked like they had bought new homes for their children and stayed in the old ones.
Lin Baici guessed that this rule pollution was probably covering half of the Boxue Community.
"Hey, I’m talking to you, say something!"
Feng Qin bellowed, seeing that Xia Hongyao was ignoring him and talking to others, he got angry, and he reached out to grab Xia Hongyao’s hair.
Today was Xia Xiaoying’s birthday. He had specially taken a day off, bought groceries, cooked, prepared a birthday cake, and even meticulously selected a gift to surprise Xia Xiaoying.
The whole birthday celebration had gone smoothly, and Xia Xiaoying was touched, saying she would agree to be his girlfriend.
Feng Qin was excited, opened another bottle of red wine, and suggested they celebrate.
If Xia Xiaoying drank too much, it would be only natural for something not suitable for those under 18 to happen, but who the hell knew they would suddenly end up in this godforsaken place.
Lin Baici grabbed Feng Qin’s wrist in an instant: "What are you doing?"
Feng Qin was startled when he saw Lin Baici.
Little Tiger Tooth pulled Feng Qin back, then apologized to Lin Baici and Xia Hongyao: "I’m sorry!"
Apart from these two, Lin Baici also spotted some familiar faces.
There was Lemon from yesterday’s dinner at the cafeteria, who had given up her seat for him, and her four companions were there as well.
"Junior, you’re here too?"
The long-haired girl from the arts society saw Lin Baici and immediately brought Lemon over.
"Do you live in a rented house outside?"
Lin Baici sighed internally, if only they had been in the school, they would not have run into this situation.
"Shan Shan just rented the house today, and we came to help her clean. We were planning to stay a little longer before returning to the dormitory..."
Ning Lemon cried and sobbed continuously.
A group of people came over, calling out to Lin Baici.
Lin Baici turned his head and saw it was the tall guy he had beaten up at the barbecue stand a few days ago.
"Are you friends with her?"
The tall guy asked with a very pleasant attitude: "Then do you know the way out?"
"Completing the God’s Taboo Game should let us out!"
