A slime came out of the pillar

Winter nights are always extremely cold. Even if the doors and windows are closed, the biting cold wind still cannot be stopped. Emma walked through the corridor alone in thin pajamas, leaning on crutches, as if she didn't feel the cold at all.

The hands on the clock slowly pointed to [-]:[-], she opened the door of the restaurant, and saw Lei sitting alone in the dark, he seemed to have expected who was coming, and he didn't even turn his head , just sitting there quietly, with a lonely back.

"It's already this time, what are you still doing here?" The restriction of activities for nearly two consecutive months made Emma haggard. She seemed to have not slept well for several days, and her eye sockets were black.

Lei Man stared aimlessly at the pitch-black ceiling, raised his head and let out a breath of air: "I'm saying goodbye to this house."

"That's right...tomorrow is your birthday."

"So it's my last night here and I'm going to be shipped out tomorrow."

After saying this sentence, the atmosphere froze in an instant, no one spoke for a while, and only the ticking of the second hand could be heard in the ear.

"Hello, Emma."

"Ok?"

"You guy, did you really just give up like that?" Lei looked back, lowered his head and sneered, and turned to look at Emma: "Actually, you didn't give up at all, did you?"

……

It was nearly twelve o'clock, and the children who should have gone to sleep at this time were all full of energy. They carried a small bag on their backs, which bulged their own things, and sat on their beds and waited quietly with their eyes open.

"Uh... I think this should be fine, what do you think?" Dong, who was stared at by everyone, stood by the table, leaning over to do something, after a while, he raised his head as if he was done, and looked at the other people around him. people.

When the other children heard it, they gathered together, and there was an ordinary and simple round cake on the table, with the words 'Happy Birthday Lei' crookedly written on it with cream.

"Very good! It looks delicious!"

"Dong, you are too powerful!"

Hearing the children's surprise and praise, Dong breathed a sigh of relief, and Chloe, who was hugged by Gilda beside him, had the same reaction as him.

This idea was conceived by Emma and Gilda a few weeks ago, and Chloe was forced to devour a lot of raw materials such as flour and eggs.

The final finished cake was carefully placed on the dining car by the children. Gilda placed the props needed for tonight's plan on the lower floor of the dining car, while Thomas and Lani were about to push the dining car out of the room.

"But the candles haven't been lit yet." Anna, who had recombed her hair, looked at the cake worriedly. Her two long braids had just been cut off a second ago.

"Uh...the matches are with Lei and Emmanuel, they should light them by themselves later."

"Let them remember to make a wish!"

"It's a pity we can't eat..."

Hearing the children sigh in frustration, Chloe on the side said kindly, "Actually, I can make another one for you, anyway, the taste and texture are the same."

"No need." What I got was a straightforward rejection. After all, whoever saw the cake making process would no longer want to eat it.

Chloe, who was disliked, said that she was wronged: the stomach was originally the place where he used to analyze and reconstruct!When the cake is ready, where can it be taken out without spitting it out of the mouth!

"Oh, it's a good thing Ray doesn't know how to make this cake." The little angel Anna on the side made up the knife again.

"Hey, you guys are going too far!" Chloe pretended to be fierce and warned, he felt that he had to re-establish his majesty in front of these children.

Seeing a group of children playing again, Dong and Gilda, who watched Thomas and Lani leave, looked at each other, nodded affirmatively, turned around and said, "Okay everyone, everything will be implemented according to plan."

……

A rapid scream pierced the silence, and the sudden fire lit up the night sky. Watching Gilda wake up all the children in the orphanage, and leading them to escape outside, Chloe, standing at the door, seemed to get Hearing some kind of signal, he turned and ran towards Phil.

At this time, Phil was in a hurry to comfort the crying children around him, and Chloe jumped to his feet: "Phil, let them hide under the tree over there first, it's too dangerous here .”

Gilda and Dong were responsible for leading the older children to escape, while he and Phil stayed behind to take care of the rest of the children until they were safe before joining Gilda and the others.

A few days ago, he had already drawn a basic map of the forest outside the farm based on his previous memory, and also specially marked several dangerous trap areas. If you act according to that map, there is a high probability that you will not encounter anything. dangerous.

The children who had just woken up from their dreams were cold and frightened. With Phil's encouragement, they slowly gathered under a big tree not far away, forming a group in panic and clinging to each other.

Not long after, Isabella rushed out quickly, holding a radio, staring sharply at the orphanage engulfed in flames, as if she wanted to contact the headquarters.

Phil rushed up suddenly and grabbed the corner of her clothes.

At this moment, Chloe, who had shrunk in size, jumped off Phil and rushed to the radio while Isabella was distracted.

Thanks to his cramped knowledge of physics, how to influence magnetic fields and shield signals, it's no problem to fiddle with this radio.

As long as they delay the arrival of support, Emma and the others can escape successfully.

"mom!"

Following Phil and running under the tree, seeing the children rushing towards them, Isabella quickly stretched out her arms to hug them, completely unaware that her radio could no longer contact the headquarters.

After learning that the younger children hadn't escaped, Isabella, who still had a grasp of the situation, didn't hesitate, even ignoring the frightened children, and rushed straight into the woods.

If they rushed over now, Emma and the others might have already climbed the wall, and it would be too late to stop them...? !

The sudden sound of the alarm made Chloe's eyes widen. How could it be possible? He had already cut off Isabella's radio. It stands to reason that the headquarters should not know so soon.

Realizing that something was wrong, Chloe quickly made two quilts from her body and handed them to Phil: "Phil, you take care of the other children here, and I will help Emma and the others."

"Okay." Phil reacted quickly, nodded and took the quilt. Realizing that he might not be able to see him after today, he looked at Chloe seriously and reluctantly: "Be sure to pay attention to safety."

"Well, I will." Chloe was stunned for a moment, then transformed into a human form in the next second, rubbed his head with a smile, and comforted: "Don't be afraid, we will definitely meet again in the future."

After speaking, he turned around and quickly ran towards the woods.

Chloe quickly caught up with Isabella due to the use of the "Dash" skill, but what he did not expect was that Isabella did not chase after the wall, but stood in the empty space in the woods. on the ground.

Chloe stopped vigilantly, and couldn't help being taken aback after seeing the scene in front of her clearly.

...is a ghost.

只见伊莎贝拉严肃地抬着头，毫不畏惧地看向面前站着的鬼，沉着冷静地汇报：“2名下等、2名中等、3名优等、4名上等、以及2名特上等，参与逃脱计划的一共是15名孩子。”

The leader of the ghost was wrapped in a black cloak, and the mask he was wearing made it impossible to see his expression clearly. Only a few trembling eyes revealed his anger: "A few days ago, a subordinate reported that the forest in the north outside the farm I found the remaining footprints of human children in the farm, and it seems that some edible children escaped. I sent my subordinates to patrol nearby, but I didn't expect it to be your farm..."

Chloe couldn't help but be surprised when she heard his words. It seems that he didn't cover up his footprints to let these ghosts notice it. No wonder they arrived before Isabella notified the headquarters, but they were able to stand still so many days...

"I admit that it was my negligence this time, but the children who escaped before could never come from my farm." Isabella lowered her head, making her expression unclear.

The ghost didn't have time to pay attention to her rebuttal, and he unhurriedly took out a walkie-talkie from behind, "Notify the headquarters immediately, a fire broke out in the third breeding farm and 15 escapees appeared, immediately activate the highest alert and completely blockade the farm Don't let any one of the cargo escape. It doesn't matter if you kill other escapees except special accidents, but remember not to hurt the head."

"Please wait a moment! There is room for children other than the special class to continue to develop their brains, so it's better to capture them all alive..." Isabella raised her head in panic when she heard the other party's order, and wanted to persuade her, but she was caught in the next second. Restraining her mouth, she saw a sharp knife pointing straight at her neck.

"Do your part well, 73584." The leading ghost said indifferently, "Now go and monitor the remaining edible children in the farm immediately, so as not to produce escapees again, do you think you are qualified to dictate here? "

Isabella's eyes widened in horror. She seemed to want to say something more, but finally gritted her teeth and said no more: "...Yes."

Isabella, who had to obey the ghost, silently walked back in the direction of the orphanage, and the ghost on the other side immediately prepared to go in the direction of the fence after giving the order, and Chloe's heart was full of alarms.

What to do, if this continues, Emma and the others will be in danger...

Chloe suddenly had an idea, stopped, took a deep breath, and shouted: "Hey! Those in front!"

"Huh?" The ghosts didn't seem to expect that there would be someone still in the forest, and they turned their heads one after another. The next second, they only heard the sound of the wind whizzing by, and a heavy slash was aimed at the ghost on the far right. Going towards the door, it directly hit his eyeball.

No dodging or defense...

Chloe, who hadn't expected to hit him with one blow at all, was a little stunned, and then immediately figured out that this is a farm, and these ghosts would never have thought that they would be attacked by a child with no power to restrain the chicken, or even killed in one blow Life.

Chloe was not stupid enough to confront several ghosts single-handedly. He quickly turned around and ran away after attacking one of the ghosts. He only needs to delay these ghosts and allow Emma and the others to escape successfully. Since Emma and the others are escape from the north wall, then he lures these ghosts to the west wall.

The leading ghost found that his subordinate was killed by a child in the blink of an eye. He froze for a few seconds and looked up and down vigilantly at Chloe. Judging from his clothes, he might also be one of the escaped edible children, and immediately issued an order. : "Catch him quickly, don't let him run away."

Chloe, who had been chased by wild ghosts in succession, had top-notch escape skills. He dexterously shuttled through the woods, and his speed surprised the ghosts chasing after him.

"Is this really the edible children on our farm? At this speed, I'm afraid even we..."

"Don't talk nonsense, with such agility, he might be one of the top class, and his speed has gradually slowed down, catch up to him."

Chloe's speed was indeed not as fast as the beginning, because he was distracted at the moment, and while running, he used "spider silk" to lay traps on the ground.

He originally wanted to use the newly developed "steel wire", which can scratch, but those ghosts have the ability to regenerate quickly, and a small wound is nothing to them. It will get their attention and inadvertently glue their hands and feet to the ground.

The skill of "spider silk" was originally used to capture enemies, but in the current situation, he didn't have enough time to create a spider web that was used to capture wild ghosts as usual, so he could only release the spider silk to entangle him bit by bit. them.

He specially strengthened the stickiness of the spider silk, no matter how strong the ghost was, it would not be so easy to break free.

Sure enough, all the ghosts chasing behind stepped on the spider silk and stuck in place. He looked around and found that there were no other pursuers, so he ran forward with all his strength. The trees in front of him became more and more sparse , A high white wall can already be glimpsed from the gap between the trees.

Almost to the wall!

Just as he was about to rush to the woods, a tall, dark figure suddenly blocked in front of him.

It was the ghost who was the leader just now.Chloe had no choice but to stop and watch the other party vigilantly. This ghost was even faster than him, but it didn't stop him halfway. Instead, he let him run here, probably because he thought he would fight with other people. The children meet.

"You're not a kid from the Third Farm."

The ghost in front of him made a judgment based on Chloe's actions just now. Compared with the ghosts behind him who were entangled in place by spider silk, his aura was obviously different.

"Although I don't know how you got in, you must have encouraged those children to escape." Just listen to him speculate, "Catch them without a fight, even if the escapees have reached the bridge now, we have sealed off there. Let them escape."

Very well, the plan is still being implemented normally.

These ghosts would not have thought that Emma and the others would cross the cliff directly and stay on the other side of the bridge. Instead, they relaxed their vigilance on the edge of the wall.

"It's so sad." Chloe clenched her fists, taunting them on the surface, but she was quietly looking for a chance to escape, "You have eaten so many people, but you are still the same stupid in the end, just like the group of wild animals outside. Ghosts are no different."

"Since you are not a product of our farm, then there is no need to show mercy." The other party ignored his provocation, and directly extended his sharp claws to attack him.

Chloe looked up and watched the ghost rush towards him, but he didn't make any movement. He still stood where he was, without any intention of resisting.

Sure enough, human beings are so weak...huh?

Disappeared……?

The ghost's sharp claws were about to touch Chloe, but the person standing there disappeared out of thin air in the next second.

I saw that the ghost's movements couldn't help but stagnate, and then he felt a strong murderous aura coming from behind, followed by a fierce attack. He quickly avoided sideways, but it was still a step too late. Chloe's The wind blade slashed across his right side, cutting him in half abruptly.

The ghost, who hadn't expected that he would be attacked at all, widened his eyes and turned his head quickly, only to find that Chloe had already stood on the fence at some point.

Although the level of this ghost is not low, its speed is much lower than that of the Leuvis that he met in the hunting ground before. Chloe easily avoided his attack by using mimicry, very fast flew over the fence.

"Those children won't go to the other side of the bridge. No matter how many people you send to guard it, it's useless."

While talking, Chloe raised his head and looked north. With the good farsightedness combined by moonlight and mimicry, he could vaguely see a few white cloths floating on the edge of the cliff in the distance. There was no one else on the wall except him. any child anymore.

It seems that Emma and the others have escaped safely.

"Do you know why?" Chloe knew that the trauma he caused to the ghost in front of him would take a lot of time to regenerate, so he expected that he would not attack again, so he stretched out his arms with ease, facing the abyss, and stood upright. fell down.

"Because they'd rather die than be on your plate—"

This sentence is extremely misleading, but Chloe is not sure whether the ghost will believe it, but it has nothing to do with him.In the next step, he only needs to pretend to be a sparrow, and then fly to Emma and the others.

There was the whistling wind in my ears, and the weightlessness of the rapid fall was uncomfortable, and Chloe realized in a second that his body had not successfully mimicked it.

what happened……?

【answer.A strong fluctuation of magic essence was detected around, which may have an impact on the use of skills. 】

What? !Can't imitate? !

After hearing the answer from the great sage, Chloe's heart collapsed at that moment.

However, it is useless to do anything now, his body is constantly falling, and it is estimated that he will be smashed to pieces in the next second.

It's over so soon, his slime career.

The surroundings were pitch black, and Chloe made up her mind and closed her eyes in despair.

Surprisingly, however, the touchdown didn't come.
