Day of Imprisonment

“Big brother, are we going in?” Mad Lion asked.

Even in his opinion, this forest was too dangerous, with various poisonous insects, some poisonous plants, extremely concealed swamps that would spell doom if stepped on, wandering werewolves, and singing little girls – any one of these could be fatal.

So, Mad Lion felt that entering this hunter camp would definitely provide some respite.

However, Luo Xi shook his head.

“We’re not going in!”

“Big brother, I’ll listen to you, but why not go in?”

“Comfort is also a disease, a form of self-paralyzing mental illness. I can tell that the people inside are terminally ill, beyond cure. They’ve forgotten their initial purpose, and they’ve forgotten that this is just a checkpoint scene. They fear losing their memories and try everything to avoid death. For the sake of so-called safety, they choose to escape, and the result is that they’ll become useless if they hang out with a bunch of useless people.”

“Big brother, I don’t understand.”

“Then don’t ask, just follow me.”

Luo Xi had already noticed something was wrong when he encountered those two hunters earlier.

They were tainted with some kind of subtle mental illness.

And those two hunters weren’t lying, because Luo Xi could tell when someone was lying. So, this camp can indeed provide shelter and temporary safety, but there won’t be any clues about the ticket.

The key to clearing Fairy Tale Town is that colorful fish river, and the ticket.

“By the way, Mad Lion, after you died before and were reborn in the cemetery, did it consume any [Memory]?” Luo Xi asked, remembering something.

Mad Lion scratched his head, saying he didn’t remember how many [Memory] cards he had before.

“Big brother, I don’t seem to have ever kept track of that. How about I keep track this time, and when I die next time, I’ll tell you.” Mad Lion said with a sincere look.

“Forget it, this matter isn’t actually important. Death should definitely be avoided, regardless of whether it consumes [Memory] or not. It’s just that because a part of your memory will inevitably be lost, you must absolutely avoid death. If it were just according to my idea, dying in Fairy Tale Town wouldn’t consume [Memory], because only this rule would make the Memory Retrievers lower their guard and treat death as a ‘nothing’ thing. Besides, [Memory] itself is for preserving memories, so if memories can be lost here, it means it won’t be consumed.”

Luo Xi stared at Mad Lion, feeling like he’d found a treasure.

This guy is a natural tool. If we were to talk about chess pieces, Mad Lion definitely belongs to the ‘rook, knight, bishop’ level.

With Mad Lion around, my plans can indeed be a bit more wild.

“Big brother, I’ll do whatever you say anyway.”

“I do have a plan that requires your full effort, but it’s dangerous and you might die.”

“I’m not afraid of death, big brother, just give the order.”

“I plan to capture a Little Red Riding Hood alive.”

In the original Little Red Riding Hood story, the hunter's presence is actually very low. And this fairy tale has also undergone several revisions at the beginning. It is said that the original version was more bloody and desperate, that is, Little Red Riding Hood and Grandma were not saved from the Big Bad Wolf's belly by the hunter with scissors.

But were really eaten.

The taste of this plot is very right.

Also in line with reality.

But a fairy tale is a fairy tale. Although from the moment you step into 'Fairy Tale Town', everything here is just a framework and shell of the original fairy tale story, the core is a dark version of the horror story, but Luo Xi has always believed that the keyword 'fairy tale' is very important.

When Luo Xi was riding Dou Dou before, he recorded the terrain of a part of the forest, and he also encountered several 'Little Red Riding Hoods' along the way.

And capturing Little Red Riding Hood, who may turn into a wolf at any time, especially capturing her alive, is definitely not an easy task.

This matter must consider all aspects.

Own strength, timing, tactics and environment, none can be missing.

In terms of his own strength, Luo Xi alone was not enough, but now that he has Mad Lion, this close combat maniac, he has already met the standard; and in terms of timing, Luo Xi is actually always observing the movement of the dark clouds above his head.

This is a fake world.

Including the moon and dark clouds.

Luo Xi even learned one thing from the hunter before, that is, at least in this forest, there will never be a sunrise, forever, it is night.

This can be called the 'Eternal Night Forest'.

Dark clouds cover the moon, a natural phenomenon and random event that anyone can think of with their toes, unpredictable, but if applied to the premise of 'man-made scene', then the so-called natural phenomenon and random event are completely untenable.

That is to say, there must be a regularity in the dark clouds covering the moon.

Although Luo Xi has not yet figured out this regularity, it is only because he has just arrived for a short time. If he is given a little more time, the possibility of finding this regularity is almost inevitable.

Then there is the 'capture environment'.

Werewolves are extremely fast and powerful. Before, Dou Dou relied on her strong physical ability to shake off the werewolves, but it does not mean that she can gain an overwhelming advantage in a head-on battle against the werewolves.

Because werewolves have claws that can easily tear through bark, teeth and bite force enough to crush hard bones.

Although the Mad Lion is fierce, it cannot confront a werewolf head-on.

So, to defeat, or even capture a werewolf alive, besides a certain amount of combat power, you can only rely on the external terrain environment.

As for locations suitable for ambushes, or rather, areas where capture traps can be set, Luo Xi had already compared them when he rode Dou Dou to explore around.

Next, it is to set traps, think about tactics, and make all the advance preparations. If the pattern of dark clouds covering the moon can be found during this process, then the certainty of the plan's success can be directly raised to 90%.

This is already a conservative estimate for Luo Xi.

In the eyes of others, the forest is almost a maze, but at this moment, Luo Xi is like entering his own garden. He can even remember the characteristics of most of the trees encountered along the way, so as to quickly distinguish the location and route.

"We're here, it's here."

Luo Xi walked to a hillside at this time and looked around.

Not far from here, there was a faint singing voice.

A Little Red Riding Hood was wandering over there.

In addition, the terrain here can be said to be very suitable for setting traps. Below the hillside is a valley. Digging a pit in advance and covering it with branches and loose soil will make it difficult to detect, because there are dense bushes on both sides. If you lure Little Red Riding Hood here, enter from that opening, with one person acting as bait in front, and another taking the opportunity to block the retreat with some rocks and giant trees, it is equivalent to leading the werewolf into a 'long cage' that is narrow and inconvenient for it to move in.

Once this step is achieved, it is already considered one foot in the door to capture success.

Just as Luo Xi was about to take a look at this place and think about how to set up the trap, he found that the soil quality of the ground below was wrong.

He immediately stopped the Mad Lion.

Then he asked the other party to lift a large rock next to him and throw it towards an area where the soil quality was obviously different from the color of the surrounding ground.

As the stone fell, with a bang, that area collapsed directly.

It's a trap.

The latest novels are first published on 6_9_book_bar!

Below, you can see very sharp wooden cones, densely packed. If you fall down, you will be pierced through the body immediately, and you will be trapped inside.

Normal people will undoubtedly die if they fall down.

But the size of this trap, if it is prepared for an ordinary person, is obviously too huge.

Suddenly, the Mad Lion took a step forward and stood behind Luo Xi.

At the same time, an arrow also flew over and pierced the Mad Lion's arm.

Then came the second arrow, the third...

The Mad Lion had something wrapped around his hand. Although the flying arrows also pierced this layer of protection, this little injury was almost nothing to him.

"Brother, someone is attacking!"

"Capture them alive."

With an order, the Mad Lion had already pounced towards a place that was obviously most suitable for hiding people.

Then, there was the sound of fighting, the sound of branches breaking and screams.

When Luo Xi walked over, the battle was already over.

One person was lying on the ground, with blood on the corner of his mouth, and his arm was obviously broken. The bones were sticking out, which was terrible.

Next to him, a crossbow was scattered.

Another person was grabbed by the Mad Lion's neck and dragged over, jumping around.

"Be honest!" The Mad Lion used force with his fingers, and this person almost choked to death.

"Don't kill him."

"Brother, don't worry, I know what to do." The Mad Lion thought for a while, and punched down, breaking one of this person's legs.

"I'll let you struggle again, come on, struggle again and let me see!" The Mad Lion cursed in a rough voice.

Seeing all of this, Luo Xi had only four words in his heart.

Truly a fierce general!

At this time, the Mad Lion's forearm, which was as thick as an ordinary person's thigh, still had an arrow stuck in it.

This guy also pulled it out indifferently.

"Give me the arrow!"

Luo Xi took it and looked at it, wiping off the blood on it.

Silver arrowhead.

Now Luo Xi understood.

He glanced at the man with the broken leg on the ground.

"Sorry, neither of us knew that you also chose to hunt Little Red Riding Hood here. Originally, we had the same purpose, and maybe we could have become friends, but in this situation, I guess even if we agree to shake hands and make peace, you won't let it go."

Luo Xi's words were all based on reality. These two, the Mad Lion directly went up and killed one, and also broke the leg of the other.

It can be regarded as a feud.

In this case, even if they say they are willing to cooperate, Luo Xi's side cannot believe it.

Then we can only go all the way to the dark.

Interrogate first.

See what you can pry out of this person's mouth.

Luo Xi is very good at this. He always sets up questions with multiple traps, and judges the answers through the other party's answers, reactions, and micro-expressions.

Even if the other party deliberately lies, Luo Xi can guide this malicious lie to the results he needs.

More than ten minutes later.

After getting the answer he wanted, Luo Xi also sent this person back to the cemetery with a knife.

"It turns out that capturing 'Little Red Riding Hood', or any werewolf, can be exchanged for a No. 2 ticket from the 'Forest Merchant'. Sure enough, besides the timid cowards in the hunter camp, there are still some normal players in this place."
