《Game, Live Stream》Chapter 53.3

The three of them immediately froze at once, and so did the other four players. The clown had clearly said that only one entrance was correct. Choose the wrong entrance and they would never be able to leave the maze… Then why did the seven of them meet here again? Were all of them wrong?
Xiao Tangqiu instantly remembered the trap of the seven black balls just now. Did the clown do the same thing again? No matter which entrance they chose, they could only die in the maze eventually?
“No! This is impossible!” The geek obviously had a psychological shadow from earlier. He immediately fell apart, shouting, “I clearly chose right! This is impossible! This is impossible!”
Xiao Tangqiu frowned deeply. Did they really choose wrongly from the start?
At this time, he suddenly remembered what the clown said at the beginning of the instance.
“Never believe what the clown says.”
Were both the maze entrances wrong?
No matter which one they chose, they could only get lost in this maze and never leave.
While Xiao Tangqiu was still confused over the matter, something suddenly happened.
One of the four players opposite, that is, the handsome boy they met in the haunted house at the beginning, seemed to suddenly see something that made him extremely frightened. He turned and ran back with a frightened face.
However, there was no path behind him. There was only an endless fence. He ran madly into it as if he hadn’t seen it. In the next second, his body began to melt into the fence!
At first it was his head, then his body. He screamed and struggled desperately, but he couldn’t stop the fence that seemed to be made out of mud.
In the short span of two or three seconds, he completely melted into the fence.
Finally, the screams stopped.
A delicate and charming flower was added to the fence that was covered in lush greenery.
Xiao Tangqiu was shocked. What did the boy see?
Tang Mianmian obviously wondered the same thing as he did. He subconsciously turned to look back.
Xiao Tangqiu suddenly remembered something and shouted. “Don’t look back!”
Tang Mianmian got a fright, but immediately stopped turning back and froze halfway.
The geek, who also wanted to look back, also stopped abruptly, not daring to move.
At the same time, those flowers also grew a big mouth. And when their mouths opened, rows of dense, serrated teeth and bright red, long barbed tongue were exposed.

“Ahhh!”
The three men cried out from fear at once and turned to Xiao Tangqiu and his team, running to their side at the same time.
Xiao Tangqiu and the others were also shocked. If they had just turned around, would they have seen such a scene?
But when he saw the three men running across, Xiao Tangqiu was extremely alert. He was constantly pondering about the identities of the three men. He knew that their task was not only to live to leave the playground, but also to kill them and seize their identities. He didn’t know if it was a coincidence. There were only three players left and they just so happened to have three people on this side. As long as the three from the other side killed them, the other side wouldn’t even have to fight over their “prey” to get out alive!
The players on the other side were the last group of players who died in this instance. Xiao Tangqiu didn’t know whether there were any other old players besides the female player in the escape room. Although he tried to test the female player by taunting her, she didn’t disclose anything.
Maybe she really was the only old player or perhaps she intentionally dug a pit and waited for him to jump in!
In the last game, did those people live to the last event? Or did it all end in the third event? If they lived to the last event last time, shouldn’t they know the correct maze entrance and the rule that they couldn’t turn around?
Xiao Tangqiu thought a lot during his lightbulb moment. He also subconsciously and held the crossbow in his hand to guard against the three from suddenly attacking.
However, before the players could run over, they were caught up by the long tongue from the gaping mouth of the giant flowers!
The long barbed tongue instantly coiled around the bodies of the three players and dragged them back.
“Ahhh! Nooo! Help!”
As the three players screamed in despair, the long tongue swept up their bodies and sent them into the gaping mouth of giant flowers. Although they fought desperately, their struggle was still in vain. In an instant, they seemed to disappear between the bloody, jagged teeth.
The giant flowers slowly closed their ferocious mouths. Then, hysterical screams and the blood-curdling sound of chewing rang.

After a few seconds, the chewing sound went away.
In the dead silence, the giant flowers slowly shrank and returned to their original size.
Everything looked the same as before, but there were three more small buds on the vine.
Xiao Tangqiu looked at all of this in silence. He couldn’t imagine and didn’t dare to imagine what would happen if they had turned around just now… Will this exact scene happen to them?
Tang Mianmian and the geek were too shocked to say anything. Even if they were slow, they weren’t too stupid to understand why Xiao Tangqiu told them not to turn around just now.
Amongst the silence, the opposite green hedge suddenly split in half from the middle and slowly opened, revealing a path behind.
Xiao Tangqiu and Tang Mianmian looked at each other, nodding at the same time. Then, they walked towards the path.
The geek was still in shock. “Hey! Wait a minute! You’re going over just like that?”
Xiao Tangqiu asked the geek, “Or else?”
“What if there’s danger? You also saw the scene just now… “
“But now there isn’t any other way, so we can only go this way,” Xiao Tangqiu said quietly despite the turmoil in his heart. “Or do you want to stay here?”
Besides the road ahead, they had no other way to go and couldn’t turn back either.
“No, no, no! Don’t leave me alone! “
The geek gritted his teeth. Although he was afraid of the danger ahead, it was obviously more dangerous to stay here alone. At last, he made up his mind. “I’ll go with you!”
Xiao Tangqiu also secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Although they weren’t friends with the geek and were making use of each other at most, if this geek helped them along the way, they would obviously have a much easier time… At least from the current results, they should’ve chosen the right entrance to the maze at the beginning.
The three men set foot on the road again, but this time the maze was calmer. Not only did they not encounter any danger along the way, they didn’t even come across any forks that required a decision. They came to the end of the maze smoothly, their journey without any hiccups at all.
Finally, they see the exit!
They were instantly excited. As long as they escape from this maze, they could survive! As long as they passed the last game, they could leave the amusement park!
At the same time, the three accelerated their pace and trotted towards the exit of the maze.
They got closer and closer to the exit of the maze.
Then, they suddenly found that the exit of the amusement park wasn’t far from the exit of the maze!
Looking at the word “exit” on the signboard not far off, Xiao Tangqiu’s heartbeat sped up at once… At the same time, a bad feeling spread through his chest.
Xiao Tangqiu suddenly stopped, as did Tang Mianmian and the geek behind him.
Xiao Tangqiu glanced at Tang Mianmian and said, “I have a…”
A bad feeling…
Tang Mianmian quickly interrupted Xiao Tangqiu’s sentence. “Mmm, you don’t have to say anymore!”
The geek was very impatient. “Hey! Why did you suddenly stop? The exit is just in front! Let’s hurry up!”
Xiao Tangqiu smiled bitterly. “I’m afraid it won’t be so smooth…”
As soon as he uttered those words, the clown’s familiar and flamboyant voice rang out.
“Welcome to the exit of our lucky maze, you last three lucky players. In order to congratulate the three lucky players on their lucky exit from the maze, I will give you a small gift…”
The clown had appeared quietly at the exit of the maze God knows when. Half of his face that was exposed to the light while the other half was hidden in the shadow, which made him look very creepy.
The geek subconsciously burst out, “What gift? We don’t need it! Let’s get out of here!”
“You can’t reject the gift. You have no choice but to accept it,” the clown said smilingly. “Welcome to the lucky egg claw machine, the final hidden event in this amusement park!”
Xiao Tangqiu, “……”
Sure enough! He knew things weren’t going so smoothly!
He wasn’t surprised at all that there was a hidden event. He even saw it coming.
However, from the name itself, he knew that this event would be decided by luck.
Unlucky players say no!
