The Queen's Rise to the Top

Chapter 161

The lock on the chain is a password lock. [Nan XiangWan] searched around in the cramped space for a while and tried it over ten times, but still couldn't get it open!

More than twenty minutes had passed, and they were still stuck on the first level.

[Nan XiangWan] was anxious!

"Come help me, what's the password?"

"Help me find clues!"

She frantically called for her teammates to come help find clues!

The teammates were all curled up in the corner, not daring to come forward.

[Nan XiangWan]: "......"

Having no other choice, she reached out and grabbed both sides of the chain.

With a hard pull!

Snap!

Crash!

She broke it directly!

The teammates all looked over in shock, the cameramen kept filming with shaky hands.

The NPCs were scared silly!

How could they continue acting now?

Outside, the director [Hua Yuanwu]'s mouth twitched as he looked at the escape room owner sitting next to him.

The escape room owner's jaw dropped, still not having reacted!

[Hua Yuanwu]: "We'll have to pay for damages."

Escape room owner: "Will she hurt my staff?"

[Hua Yuanwu] paused and thought for a moment: "She shouldn't, she knows they're just actors."

Escape room owner, even more horrified: "Why did you hesitate when saying that?"

[Hua Yuanwu]: "Um..."

...

After breaking open the lock, [Nan XiangWan]'s impatience disappeared.

She turned back and waved happily at her teammates: "Quick, next level."

The teammates followed along, but they huddled together ostrich-like, especially [Ge Dongxuan], who wished she could just crawl on the ground!

Upon entering the next level, it was a bloody house!

As the camera panned across, even the livestream viewers were startled.

Surrounded by large swathes of blood stains, eerie music played all around that could drive one insane.

The dim lighting didn't reach the floor, only the few candlelights in people's hands emitted faint illumination.

[Ge Dongxuan] was almost in tears, clutching [Nan XiangWan]'s legs tightly!

The other teammates' faces were also pale, [Deng Si Nan] walked at the back, constantly looking around.

She kept feeling like something was following behind!

The cameramen had their equipment up, almost not daring to film.

[Nan XiangWan] was eager to look for clues to open the door for this level, but [Ge Dongxuan] kept hugging her legs, plus she still had 80kg of weighted bands on that she hadn't taken off.

A bit heavy!

Now [Nan XiangWan] wore weights daily, training non-stop!

80kg was already very heavy, plus [Ge Dongxuan]...

Equivalent to 120kg weighted?

So every step was extremely difficult!

[Nan XiangWan] panted from exhaustion!

[Ge Dongxuan], just how many pounds are you?

Did you lie about your weight?

[Nan XiangWan] huffed and puffed as she inched forward, [Ge Dongxuan] refused to let go, and was dragged by her for a stretch.

After looking around, she realized this was a restaurant!

There were three tables, and chairs, the tabletops were covered in bloody handprints.

As [Nan XiangWan] moved forward.

Suddenly!

A bloody hand reached out from under the table!

Grabbing her foot!

[Nan XiangWan] wasn't scared, and the other party didn't yank her either.

But [Ge Dongxuan]...

"Ah!!! Ahhh!! Mom!! Ahhh!! Help!!!"

She screamed, shrieked, vocal cords vibrating.

Soprano mode activated!

The screams made that NPC's scalp tingle, he reflexively retracted his hand to cover his ears.

[Ge Dongxuan] stood up!

And in one move, jumped onto [Nan XiangWan]'s back!

Really jumped, she was too frightened to let her feet touch the ground.

There were crawling zombies on the ground ahhh!

She was scared!

[Nan XiangWan] only felt as if she was hit by a pile driver!

Her knees suddenly bent downward a few centimeters.

Her neck was also being choked tightly by [Ge Dongxuan], if not for [Nan XiangWan] being used to hardcore training, she probably would've been strangled unconscious by [Ge Dongxuan]!

Too heavy!

[Nan XiangWan] couldn't carry her at all!

So she reached out and undid the weighted bands around her waist.

She also took off all the weights on her arms and wrists, placing them aside.

The ones on her legs she didn't remove, because [Ge Dongxuan] was clinging onto her and she couldn't reach.

At last, she could breathe!

So heavy she felt stifled!

The livestream viewers laughed while typing 'so scary', also bursting into laughter watching [Nan XiangWan] undo her weighted bands with a 'clank'.

Comments:

- OMG! Even [Nan XiangWan] took off her weights! How heavy is [Ge Dongxuan]?

- Laughing to death! [Ge Dongxuan] is like chewing gum, hates to not sit on [Nan XiangWan]'s shoulders!

- That soprano just now, I really...

- Feel bad for the NPC covering his ears haha!

- Watched with my own eyes as [Nan XiangWan]'s face turned red, neck thick, taking off the weights, then breathing deeply a few times.

- What is this posture???

- Hahahahahahahahahaha

- Laughing while lying down haha!

- I'm laughing to death! [Nan XiangWan] babysitting live!

- Expected it from [Ge Dongxuan], but even [Sha Ling] climbed on too!

- Feel [Nan XiangWan] is so helpless haha!

- [Nan XiangWan] honestly speaks the truth!

...

The door was at the end, this time it was a passcode lock.

[Nan XiangWan] was annoyed again, and wanted to pry it open directly!

"Nan XiangWan!"

Just then, director [Hua Yuanwu]'s voice came from the speakers.

"Don't damage the props! You'll have to pay for it!"

[Nan XiangWan] put her hand down awkwardly, oh well, then I won't pry it.

So, look for clues, decipher the password.

[Nan XiangWan] carried [Ge Dongxuan] and shuffled back to where the teammates were huddled together.

[Deng Si Nan] swallowed and said: "Usually, there are hints for the password, we should look around carefully for clues."

[Nan XiangWan] waved her hand: "You go, I'm exhausted."

Then she pointed at [Ge Dongxuan] on her back, her head buried in [Nan XiangWan]'s shoulder nook and not lifting up!

[Yun Qian]: "Pfft—"

[Zhou Wenxia]: "Ge Dongxuan you're overreacting!"

[Sha Ling]: "Nan XiangWan, can I hug you from the front? Carry me too?"

As she spoke, [Sha Ling] prepared to climb on, wanting to wrap around [Nan XiangWan]'s waist.

[Nan XiangWan]: "!!!"

Before she could refuse, [Sha Ling] and [Ge Dongxuan] had already sandwiched her in the middle.

Her waist was wrapped by four legs, both of them like octopuses!

[Nan XiangWan]: "......"

Comments:

- What kind of posture is this???

- Hahahahahahahahaha

- Laughing while lying down hahaha!

- Cracking up! [Nan XiangWan] babysitting live!

- [Ge Dongxuan] is understandable, but [Sha Ling] actually climbed on too!

- Feel like [Nan XiangWan] is so helpless haha!

- [Nan XiangWan] speaks blunt truth!

...

[Zhu Sha] took a deep breath: "Alright, let's search together in a group."

At this critical moment, as team leader she had to step up.

So the group shuffled along, sticking to the walls as they walked.

Inch by inch looking for clues!

[Nan XiangWan] only felt she couldn't even shuffle her feet, too heavy!

The weights on her legs hadn't been removed, and she had two people hanging on!

And...

[Sha Ling], you must've lied about your weight too!

[Nan XiangWan]: "Whew! Um, someone help me take off the weights on my legs, too heavy I can't walk."

[Deng Si Nan] happened to be nearby, and reached to touch.

[Ge Dongxuan] suddenly let out a sharp shriek: "Ahh—"

[Deng Si Nan]: "Ah! What happened! What's wrong!"

[Ge Dongxuan]: "Don't touch my thighs!"

[Deng Si Nan]: "Gosh, scared me to death, thought it was something!"

Then she continued feeling around.

[Deng Si Nan]: "Can't see clearly, exactly where is it?"

[Nan XiangWan]: "Lower, below the knees, and around the ankles."

[Deng Si Nan]: "Oh ok."
