"Looping Flight" Itanu: His Scalp Tingled

"... Hey friend, wanna hang out?"

Upon hearing the invitation from the Bangs Man, Xu Xi immediately understood his intentions.

Using someone else's strength against them?

What if there are no dangerous items?

Xu Xi swore he really just asked casually.

The other person's expression visibly froze for a moment, and they replied curtly, "How will you know if you have it if you don't check?" before leaving.

Unaware that her words were meant to be sarcastic, Xu Xi assumed the Bangs Man thought she was deliberately picking a fight.

Just as he was about to follow, he suddenly noticed that the Tattooed Man beside him was still standing in the same spot, not moving at all.

The next second, he saw the other person glance at him as well, then turn around and return to their seat.

"...?" Xu Xi was taken aback, but that didn't stop him from sitting back down steadily, even though he was about to lift his butt.

He was initially puzzled, but since the Bangs Man said "the two of us," he naturally assumed that the two had reached an agreement.

Instead of following the man with Bangs Man, the Tattooed Man turned around and went back.

His gaze fell, landing on the trail of broken, bloody footprints in the corridor.

--

Inside the first-class cabin.

Aleksye walked confidently to the Cockpit.

She had walked through this corridor once before. Unlike the previous luxurious and extravagant passageways, this place had also become rusty and mottled after going through cycles.

As she walked to the third row, she caught a glimpse of a figure standing abruptly at the end of the aisle on the left.

The dark blue uniform was soaked in blood; the head was bowed; and the other person's pale, deathly skin was visible.

Aleksye stopped abruptly.

Because she noticed the figure in front of her was slowly turning towards her.

Just then, she keenly sensed a chill pressing against the back of her neck. Without hesitation, she turned and lunged to the side, avoiding the bloody hand reaching out from behind.

The next instant, the figure in front of her also moved, rushing towards her at incredible speed.

Before Aleksye could think, the metal finger guard on her left ring finger suddenly unleashed an invisible force field, forcing the two approaching Flight Attendants back several steps.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, she rushed towards the Cockpit's side door.

He twisted the doorknob forcefully and managed to fall into the hatch before the attack from behind could reach him.

She breathed a sigh of relief after slamming the door shut behind her.

Through the door panel, Aleksye could feel the two Flight Attendants outside frantically pounding on the cabin door with tremendous force.

After catching her breath, she looked up and surveyed the Cockpit's cab; it was still empty.

The crashing sounds continued, showing no sign of stopping.

On the door, bloody handprints slowly seeped out, leaving several winding, wet streaks.

--

After walking to the next cabin, Yansheng noticed that the Tattooed Man hadn't followed, and couldn't help but sneer inwardly.

Looking ahead and behind.

When he saw the seemingly normal Flight Attendant still diligently inquiring about catering services, he simply walked over.

"Ma'am, there's something I might need to tell you."

--

When did these footprints appear?

Xu Xi was slightly taken aback.

On the ground, bright footprints of varying sizes stretched sparsely all the way to the next compartment.

He remembered that it hadn't happened before the two Bangs Man approached.

In other words... these footprints appeared after the Bangs Man left.

Suddenly, it dawned on him.

No wonder the two seemed to have reached an agreement, but the Tattooed Man changed his mind halfway through.

Meanwhile, on the other side...

Itanu, who was assumed to have missed the Bangs Man because he had spotted the bloody footprints earlier, stared at the haphazard footprints in the corridor and fell silent. "..."

If you were to ask him how he feels right now, he would probably say he's very glad he made the right choice.

As for the Bangs Man... I can only wish him good luck.

Xu Xi was secretly marveling at the insidious nature of the Dungeon when he suddenly paused a moment later.

Etc.

Regardless of which timeline these players are on, there's more than one Flight Attendant who was overlooked by the passengers.

... And then there's the guy who drew his blood and drank it the moment he opened his mouth.

The blond man and his group of passengers were from the second timeline, while the seemingly normal Flight Attendants were from the third timeline. So, what about that strange Flight Attendant from the very beginning...?

Looking at the slightly messy bloody footprints in the corridor, Xu Xi silently looked away.

He felt that the Bangs Man might be in some trouble.

That is indeed the case.

At this moment, Yansheng's body was stiff, his expression was tense, and cold sweat was dripping down his back.

Around him, a series of illusory figures, their bodies mangled with blood and flesh and their eyes vacant, stared intently at him... as well as the Flight Attendant beside him.

The clothes of the "person" closest to him were no longer recognizable; tattered strips of cloth mixed with sticky minced meat hung loosely on his torso.

Compared to these figures, the passengers sitting comfortably in their seats all seemed normal.

The Flight Attendant, on whom he had placed his hopes, was now covering her mouth, looking around at the figures with a horrified expression.

"What... what are these things...?"

Upon hearing this, Yansheng knew in his heart that something was wrong!

Sure enough, the figures seemed to have a target and began to surround them.

"Run!"

Glancing at the person who seemed still somewhat dazed, Yansheng grabbed their wrist and ran back down the corridor they had come from.

It wasn't that he was particularly kind; rather, the other party's seemingly reasonable reaction actually seemed extremely irrational.

His past experience led him to conclude that there must be other clues about this person.

So, Xu Xi and Itanu, who both regarded the other as a big shot, soon heard hurried footsteps behind them and immediately turned around.

The rather Bangs Man with bangs and the Flight Attendant, who was being dragged around and stumbling, appeared in their field of vision.

Behind the two, countless blood-red figures followed closely.

Itanu's eyes widened instantly, and his scalp tingled.

Having witnessed similar scenes before, Xu Xi was at least relatively calm, if not exceptionally so.

But in reality, he was already prepared for Rollback.
