Chapter 151 Bizarre Disappearance

The fatty led the way, the others followed, tiptoeing towards the skyscraper.

The fatty felt strange. Such a large space with a tall building rising from the ground, and people living here. It was unbelievable that their team of six had been here for so long without anyone noticing.

Could it be that the people here were so certain that no one would break in, that they didn't even bother setting up guards?

That idea wasn't wrong. If the glowing dot matrix outside hadn't had that unexpected event, they would have been blocked outside and wouldn't have been able to enter.

The skyscraper only had one main door on the front, which was wide open. It was bright inside and didn't seem dangerous.

The fatty peeked inside and, after confirming that no one was there, led them into the skyscraper one by one.

The space inside the skyscraper was completely different from the outside. From the outside, the skyscraper only covered a few thousand square meters.

But when everyone came inside, they found that the area covered at least 250,000 square meters (500 meters by 500 meters), which was larger than four football fields.

No one knew how this worked, but the fatty was certain that if Han Yu was here, she could explain the principle behind it.

The first floor of the skyscraper looked like a large square. The square was empty, with only some strange black pillars. The surface of the pillars had a lead-black metallic luster, and no one knew what they were for.

The fatty recalled the way the people of the A Yi tribe looked when they first saw the team. The way they looked at the skyscraper now was no different from the way the A Yi tribe people looked at them. They were full of curiosity and fear about these new things.

Compared to the people who lived here, the fatty and his team were more like primitive people.

The team searched the square for traces of the two people carrying the bazookas. The square was empty and unobstructed, with only a few black pillars scattered randomly across it.

The team searched the square for clues about the bazookas, but to no avail.

Rou Yi suddenly froze in place. She looked around and said uneasily, "Hey, have you guys noticed? The door we came in through is gone."

After Rou Yi asked the question, the others also started looking around, searching for the door in the direction they had come from.

But the square was vast and empty, and at first glance, it was a completely enclosed environment with no exit at all.

"The entrance we came in through disappeared?" Dodge asked subconsciously.

Dodge's words caused panic among the others, and they didn't know what to do for a while.

Combining the strange events that had happened before their eyes, Rou Yi boldly put forward her own unique insight: "Could it be that we're all having a mass hallucination?"

Mass hallucination—

Using hallucination to explain everything that was happening seemed to make sense. Maybe they had been hallucinating since they saw the green glow.

So, everyone started to associate it with hallucinations.

But how did everyone fall into the hallucination?

Could it be that there was something wrong with the food?

The fatty and his team had been eating dried meat for dinner these past few days, and the water source was the water and milk tree sap they had brought from the tribe.

It was impossible to explain it from the perspective of food causing hallucinations.

So, could it be that everyone was hypnotized?

Did the green glowing dot matrix hypnotize everyone in some way?

However, the terrifying state of the three people who died because of the glowing dot matrix, with their distorted faces and bodies before they died, didn't seem like something produced by hallucinations.

The team had witnessed the whole process of the glowing dot matrix, from nothing to something and back to nothing. If the glowing dot matrix really had hypnotic abilities, they couldn't have observed it as bystanders.

So, the theory that the glowing dot matrix hypnotized them was easily rejected.

Just as the few of them were thinking about the various possibilities of "hallucination," suddenly, "slap"—a sound came from Dodge's face.

Dodge's face instantly turned red and swollen, almost crooked from the blow. He angrily yelled at Jennifer, "You bitch, why did you hit me!"

Jennifer asked Dodge in a strange tone, "Does it hurt?"

"Of course it hurts!" Dodge said angrily, covering his face. "It's bleeding."

Jennifer then put on an indifferent look, shrugged, and said, "Looks like it's not a hallucination."

Jennifer bullied Dodge, who had a fractured bone. This act seemed to be revenge on Dodge. Their roles were completely reversed from what they were at the farm.

When Dodge heard that Jennifer was experimenting on him, he was furious. He waved his fractured arm with the splint and threatened to retaliate.

Jennifer didn't indulge Dodge. She vividly remembered Dodge's petty behavior when she was helpless.

Jennifer seized the opportunity and slammed the splint. Dodge was immediately in so much pain that he couldn't speak. He clutched his fractured hand, his face pale with pain, and squatted on the ground for a long time before he recovered.

"If it were mental hypnosis, a slap wouldn't wake you up," Rou Yi explained.

A slap wouldn't wake you up...

Jennifer raised her hand and prepared to slap Dodge a second time, but the fatty stopped her.

The fatty reminded everyone, "Even if everything in front of us is a hallucination, we still have to quickly find the 'bazooka.' The bazooka can control the glowing dot matrix, maybe that's the key to breaking the hallucination."

With that, the fatty led everyone to search the square several more times, but they didn't find any trace of the 'bazooka.'

Not only the bazooka, but in fact, they found nothing at all.

The fatty thought, "Damn, are we going to be trapped here?" Then he felt a burst of annoyance.

The fatty's brow was clouded with worry.

Suddenly, the fatty heard a chaotic sound of footsteps coming from the other side of the square. He quickly had everyone hide behind the black pillars.

The fatty poked half of his head out from the side of the black pillar, staring straight at the direction of the footsteps.

He vaguely saw three figures walking towards them in the distance, all shrouded in their respective white robes, their shapes and faces unclear.

"Hiss, who are they? Where did they suddenly come from?"

The fatty was puzzled. He looked back at Rou Yi and Jennifer, wanting to get an answer from the others.

In that moment of turning his head, the fatty's heart sank—Rou Yi, Jennifer, and the others, who had been right behind him, were all gone.

They had disappeared so silently.

At this time, besides the three people walking towards him, only the fatty was left on the square.

The fatty was anxious.

"Where are they?"
