Whether it was slashing, chopping, or piercing, all were useless!
The Duke was just like an iron wall! Regardless of where they attacked his body, he seemed to be immune to pain! Even if a small injury was inflicted, it would heal quickly!
Not to mention hurting him, they couldn’t even stop him now!
In just two or three seconds after Yu Yaqing and Su Man stopped, the Duke had already dragged Cheng Xi to the third floor—
Upon reaching the third floor, the barely alive Cheng Xi suddenly let out a cry that sounded like both crying and roaring!
As if in a final act of resistance, she opened her eyes wide, twisted her body, and used all her strength to throw two beads at the Duke!
Of the two beads, the Duke dodged one, and the other hit his shoulder.
The Duke’s body trembled twice due to the pain, and a low growl came from his throat, then he continued to drag her forward!
“Why…” Cheng Xi couldn’t accept this outcome, “why didn’t it explode…why didn’t it explode?! Why aargh!!!”
Zhu Shu, who had rushed over, couldn’t accept it either and threw out three beads at once!
But the God of Luck no longer favored her.
The beads without explosive effects only made the Duke feel pain and couldn’t cause substantial damage.
He dragged Cheng Xi more and more quickly.
The bride on the ground was screaming, clawing, desperately struggling!
She even wished she could bite off her own bloody arm that was being dragged!
But she couldn’t escape in the end!
Cheng Xi was dragged by the Duke to the execution room.
The stone wall turned quickly, the Duke dragged Cheng Xi in, and then the stone wall closed a second before Su Man and Yu Yaqing could reach—
Yu Yaqing’s fist pounded on the wall.
The wall was unmoved.
Since closing, this wall looked no different from the other walls.
Yu Yaqing did not want to give up, and tried to push the wall again. Su Man and Zhu Shu also joined her, but it was useless.
“It shouldn’t be …” Yu Yaqing again attempted to push the wall, “why can he go in, but we can’t?!”
Su Man, who had been pushing for a while, ran out of strength, stopped to catch her breath.
Cheng Xi’s painful screams came from inside.
As eerie and chilling as yesterday’s Zhao Lanfen, echoing throughout the entire mansion, lingering endlessly…
The three women looked at each other in silence.
Their eyes were filled with helplessness, defeat, indignation, and the pain of shared hardships.
They couldn’t save Cheng Xi, and they were desperate because they had no solution for that man-shaped beast!
“The game rules are constraining us, so we can’t enter…” Zhu Shu looked at the wall and guessed, “maybe, we can only enter this room during the day.”
Yu Yaqing pondered for a moment, nodding, “It’s very likely. The night is the Duke’s time, the day is the player’s time.”
“Let’s go, to find Bai Youwei.” Su Man sighed and walked downstairs, “she might have a way.”
She had never been good at thinking, and before she relied on Yan Qingwen, and now she could only rely on Bai Youwei.
When they went downstairs, they saw Bai Youwei waiting for them at the staircase.
Su Man shook her head at her: “We couldn’t save her.”
Bai Youwei, as if she had expected the result, asked calmly: “Did you see it clearly?”
“Yes.” Su Man nodded, “I tore open his suit, and indeed, one button was missing from the inside shirt collar.”
Yu Yaqing was confused, asking, “What button?”
Bai Youwei took out a button and threw it over gently. Yu Yaqing caught it, and saw that the button in her hand had a gold rim around it, and it looked somewhat familiar.
“This is the button from the Gardener’s clothes, it seems it is indeed the same person.” Bai Youwei said flatly, “Since we can’t kill him at night, we’ll try during the day. The game always provides a way out.”
“Kill him?!” Hu Ya, who had been silent, suddenly yelled, “Are you so certain that killing the Gardener can bring us through the game? What if it’s wrong?!!”
