She can’t use the rabbit!
The rabbit’s battery power is low, making it hard for it to harm the Duke, let alone its current grasp on Zhu Shu. If the electrical current were to run into Zhu Shu, she will die even before the Duke is harmed!
So, she tossed out four beads.
In the dollhouse, she obtained twelve beads, eight of which she’d used, leaving her with four. These were the last beads she had!
And the only offensive tool that could be immediately effective!
The beads hit the Duke. With wide eyes, she finally saw the explosive blast she had been hoping for!
But the Duke’s body merely swayed, without letting go of Zhu Shu.
The charred skin on his back had a glaring red wound caused by the explosion of the beads. The Duke briefly looked back at Bai Youwei, his eyes were extremely venomous.
Bai Youwei bit her lip tightly and pushed herself forward with her cane.
The Duke glanced at her leg, sneered, then turned his gaze away, continuing to drag the struggling Zhu Shu towards the torture chamber.
Bai Youwei’s face turned pale and her steps were more frantic. She couldn’t keep up with him!
Suddenly, two figures charged out from behind her, heading straight for the Duke and Zhu Shu!
It was Su Man and Yu Yaqing!
They charged at the Duke, swords in hand, slashing at him ferociously! They were well aware that their weapons couldn’t harm him and that he was Immortal; but even if they could make him loosen his grip just a bit and save Zhu Shu, their efforts would not be in vain!
They stabbed at his back and his ankles.
They chopped at his wrist and his head.
No matter how they attacked, the Duke seemed fully aware of their intentions, his grip on Zhu Shu never loosened.
With one hand, he sent Yu Yaqing crashing into the wall, then brought his hand down to slap away the ever pestering Su Man. With this force, Su Man was knocked back, falling and twisting the hand she had previously injured. A soft grunt of pain escaping her.
Finally, the Duke arrived outside the torture chamber!
The parallel walls of the chamber flipped open, revealing a passageway. Just as the Duke was about to drag Zhu Shu inside, the struggling Zhu Shu suddenly threw out an object!
[Snowflake: Only a snowflake can invite guests from winter. Guests will leave when the snowflake melts.]
No one clearly understood the tool’s capabilities, so no one had ever used it after leaving the dollhouse. But now, Zhu Shu was hanging by a thread and was unwilling to risk her last life-saving tool!
The Duke paused, stopping in his tracks.
Within a second, a snowstorm suddenly broke out within the room and the temperature plummeted!
From the gathered snow emerged a giant snowman almost three meters tall. White all over with sharp claws and red eyes. When it roared, it echoed like the chilling howl of the northerly wind.
The snowman roared and charged straight at the Duke, throwing him forcefully into the torture chamber!
Yu Yaqing and Su Man hurriedly pulled Zhu Shu out of there!
One of them carried Zhu Shu and the other carried Bai Youwei, running for their lives.
But unexpectedly, as they passed by a room at the stairs, Hu Ya rushed out frantically, knocking into them!
This time, it wasn’t Hu Ya’s intention to do so. Originally, she intended to hide until everyone was dead before trying the keys, but when the temperature suddenly dropped and she heard the snowman’s roar, she got anxious and decided to leave the third floor for a safer hiding place.
Zhu Shu and Bai Youwei were well-aware of what Hu Ya had done, but this wasn’t time for personal revenge. The beast behind them could catch up at any moment!
Everyone hurriedly ran downstairs.
Seeing the chaos at the end of the hallway, Hu Ya, overwhelmed with panic, also ran downstairs.
Gasping for breath, Su Man asked, “How long can the snowman hold on?”
“Not long,” Zhu Shu replied in despair. “The snowflake melts when guests leave. If it were winter now, the effect of this tool could last for a while. But in the torture chamber… there’s a fire basin…”
The snowman would melt soon.
And they had no place to hide…
