Chapter 406: Chapter 406: Dealing with the Person in the Painting
This feeling was subtle.
Xu Huo approached Madame Butterfly with an ulterior motive to spar, setting aside his own doors to create frames was just a trial, yet he hadn’t expected it to succeed so easily, much simpler than the first time he opened a door in the mental hospital.
That’s why he fully materialized the Spiritual World.
Unless it was a special environment, he couldn’t enter his own Spiritual World; Madame Butterfly, however, had ways to enter the Spiritual World anytime and anywhere. Such trials and training opportunities were rare, so he also took the experience and hid the symbol of his spirit while materializing the Spiritual World.
In fact, when he materialized the frames and doors extensively, he never entered through that door; he hid within the painting, and entering the door to lure Madame Butterfly into the library was another personality.
He was still outside right now.
Although Madame Butterfly could split into multiple selves in the Spiritual World, it seemed to be different from his distinct personalities.
After hesitating briefly, he entered the frames five times before finally plunging the World in the Painting into darkness, then he took out "World in the Painting."
In the darkness, footsteps added to the silence; Brother Tu had been running for his life in the world of the painting for who knows how long.
When he first came in, he searched everywhere for an exit, but it was dark in the frames, with roads everywhere, yet no way out, everywhere was the same. Props, tickets, none could be used; there was simply no way to escape from the painting, only when Xu Huo took out the painting, a frame would appear before him, and through that frame, he could communicate with the outside.
Having spent a long time in the painting, he had resigned himself to his fate. After all, he wouldn’t starve or die here, it was quite nice to stay put, and he could not be bothered to look for a way out. But this brief peace was shattered within days when a second player entered the painting.
This guy entered and immediately tried to kill him; had Brother Tu not been so fast, he would have died long ago, and right now, he was still on the run.
"No idea where he gets the will to fight, we’re trapped in the painting, unable to leave, what use is there in killing me?" Brother Tu stopped to rest for a while, listened carefully to the surrounding movements, and made sure the other hadn’t found him before he sat down to check his legs.
In this place, he couldn’t see things, but he could still feel the changes in his legs. He felt upwards along his calf, rough skin had spread up to his knees.
"Some luck, thought I could hide here for a lifetime." A few days ago, his feet suddenly became weak, and then he found that the skin of his entire sole was coated with a layer, feeling a bit like the rough surface of an oil painting. In just a few days, this thing had grown up to his knees, he understood that in a few days, he might turn into a real painting, but to live another day is to live.
The painting frame that had disappeared for a while suddenly appeared in front of him again, but there was no light outside, Brother Tu was stunned for a moment, the next second, he saw the frame flying towards him, he immediately protected his head, then raised his head after a few seconds to see, the frame still squarely floated in its original place.
The only thing visible in the darkness was the painting frame, its appearance signified that Xu Huo had taken the prop out of the prop bar; it was probably dark outside because it was nighttime.
"I’m almost assimilated with the painting, or else you find a random copy to let me out, as long as you don’t kill me, I promise to give you everything I have, and the reserve supplies I’ve hidden in other partitions..."
However, before he could finish, his head flew off from his neck.
[Congratulations, Player Passerby A on killing a Black Player.]
Receiving the game notification, Xu Huo stepped out of the darkness, kicked the corpse to the side, and stepped into the bright frame in front of him.
On the other side of the frame, the Wooden Sword Player standing there, who had intended to assassinate Xu Huo, looked dubiously at the two frames that had appeared on his left and right.
The frame appeared in front of Brother Tu at the same time it appeared in front of him, but after passing through his body, it stopped behind him, while the frame in front didn’t disappear.
"Is it you? I’ve said it already, I won’t reveal any information to you, so stop dreaming!"
No one replied, and a row of painting frames appeared around him again, squeezing in towards him.
Seeing a bright light emerge from one of the paintings, he twisted his head and fiercely slammed into that painting!
Every time before, he had failed, but this time he passed through effortlessly!
"I’m out..." His ecstatic expression froze on his face. Instead of the outside world, it was Xu Huo holding a Sword, looking down at the Sword piercing his heart, the player looked up in shock, "How is that possible..."
Xu Huo pulled out the Sword and pushed the man down, "I didn’t enter the painting. You know well that props can’t be used inside the painting. You came out just now."
"Ugh..." The Wooden Sword Player coughed up blood, dying with regret.
When the painting frames first appeared, both of them were let out, but he had made a small trick outside so that neither realized they had been freed from the prop.
If Brother Tu had been a bit smarter, he should have immediately noticed that his legs had returned to normal.
The situation with the Wooden Sword Player was a little trickier, so he made some extra preparations. Although the outside was covered by Madame Butterfly’s Spiritual World, it wasn’t guaranteed that he had no awareness... To dispose of him so easily was completely unexpected.
Xu Huo put away the Crimson Sword and turned to look at Madame Butterfly, who appeared a few meters away, smiling, "You found out so quickly."
Madame Butterfly’s expression was gloomy, "Well done, using my Spiritual World to kill."
"These two have been trapped in the prop for a long time, I was afraid they might die on their own," Xu Huo said with a thick smile, "It was a rare opportunity."
Madame Butterfly laughed angrily, "Fine then, if you’re so clever, figure your own way out."
As soon as she finished speaking, a zipper opened up at her feet and swallowed him in, afterwards the space returned to its previous void, even the two bodies on the ground disappeared.
Xu Huo knew that she was more angry about being manipulated than being used, especially by a personality that had split off from her own. The decoy personality had already been found; there were slight differences in their appearances, Madame Butterfly understood what happened as soon as she found the person.
However, he had already taken care of his side, and now he could explore her Spiritual World.
This time, Madame Butterfly was seriously angry. He opened dozens of doors before he found a black zipper. After walking through it, he found himself in a quiet space where four silver zippers hung suspended, each placed in a different direction.
He casually picked one and went through, but behind the door was yet another empty space.
Xu Huo had no choice but to go back and choose again, but even returning was not easy, taking a long time to traverse the remaining three doors, yet still without any new progress.
There was no exit, and he couldn’t get in touch with the true Spiritual World of Madame Butterfly.
He understood that this was the difference in strength within the Spiritual World, like how after learning multiplication and division, addition and subtraction come naturally. He had only learned addition and subtraction; trying to comprehend multiplication and division, he had no idea where to begin.
