"Looping Flight" Itanu: A Heaven-Sent Opportunity
"Ladies and gentlemen, due to unstable airflow ahead, the aircraft is experiencing some turbulence. Please remain seated and fasten your seatbelts. Thank you for your cooperation."
The sudden broadcast made everyone's expressions change instantly.
From the time they entered the second loop until the broadcast sounded again, the time between them was far less than half an hour.
Does this mean that with each cycle, the time left for them will become shorter and shorter?
Yansheng's expression was not good. His plans had been interrupted time and time again, which would make anyone feel annoyed.
Feeling the slight vibration from the minor bumps under his feet, he had no choice but to let the others return to their seats.
Having learned from the previous cycle, this time everyone stayed obediently in their seats.
"Sizzle--"
The overhead lights flickered on and off, and each time they came back on, the light appeared increasingly murky and dim.
What were once just mottled rust marks have now become even more grotesque, and the faint smell of rust in the air has gradually been replaced by a strong stench of decay.
Xu Xi gripped the seatbelt around her waist, her eyes fixed straight ahead.
Although these passengers had bluish skin before, they still looked human, unlike now, where they were just swollen figures.
Not daring to even turn her head, Xu Xi used the faint light that barely outlined the cabin's interior to focus her attention on other changes.
... Um?
The next second, his eyes widened slightly.
The corpse, which had been motionless since the Bangs Man broke its neck, twitched slightly on the ground, then suddenly jolted and staggered to its feet.
The other person's head was teetering on the edge, and blood kept gushing from its severed wound.
Holy crap?
"Pfft!"
Xu Xi clutched her bleeding neck and turned her head with difficulty.
The Blonde Woman, who should have gone to the Cockpit, appeared behind him at some point, her face contorted in a ferocious grimace, her eyes filled with malice. She plunged the cutlery in her hand straight into his neck, repeatedly muttering, "Die! All of you die!!"
Holy crap!
--
"Ladies and gentlemen..."
Once she regained her senses, Xu Xi made a quick decision and got up to leave her original spot.
He never expected the Blonde Woman to suddenly appear behind him, and she seemed to have lost her mind.
Where did they come from?
Itanu was sitting obediently in his seat when he suddenly felt two taps on his shoulder.
It's no exaggeration to say that at that moment, Itanu felt the hairs on the back of his neck stand on end.
Xu Xi looked at the Tattooed Man in front of him, who was wary and seemed ready to unleash Item at the slightest provocation. "..."
Okay, I accidentally scared my teammate.
Meanwhile, Itanu, sitting opposite, felt his bottom get a little hot when he saw that the Huaguo man not only wasn't sitting down but had unexpectedly come over to gesture to him.
He jumped to his feet.
Xu Xi, who had intended to explain but was startled herself upon seeing the explanation, was speechless.
Immediately afterwards, he heard the other person ask in a low voice without hesitation, "Has something changed?"
Itanu's thinking was very simple.
The young man, who had been sitting steadily in his position, suddenly made an unexpected move; it must mean that a new calamity was about to occur in the Dungeon.
As for why the other party only contacted him individually...
Is there even a question? The other party must have seen some value in him, such as... some kind of Item that can deal with the upcoming crisis.
So far, he has only shown one Item: his "Hard as Iron."
Itanu, who was worried about not finding an opportunity to cooperate, felt that this was a godsend.
The facts were as Itanu had predicted, though with slight deviations.
With "Manya" turning into a zombie again in front of him and the Blonde Woman who had lost her mind behind him, Xu Xi never even considered the possibility of fighting alone.
As for why they approached this Tattooed Man first...
Not only did the other party notice the bloody footprints on the ground beforehand, but they also remained calm and simply watched the Bangs Man make a scene during the first zombie transformation.
It's obvious they had a plan in mind.
Not to mention, the other party seems to possess an "Vajra Shield," making them the perfect savior.
To his surprise, before he could even formulate his words, the Tattooed Man spoke first.
Xu Xi subconsciously glanced at the corpse not far away that was about to rise again.
Following the young man's gaze, Itanu looked over as well, and his heart skipped a beat.
As the plane began to shake, amidst the flickering light and shadows, the bloodied figure lying silently on the ground twitched slightly once more, perhaps soon to get up again.
Before Itanu could react, his shoulder was patted again.
This time it's the direction of the Restroom.
Under his gaze, a pale hand suddenly reached out from the Restroom and gripped the door frame tightly.
Then, a familiar yet stiff figure staggered out.
It was that Blonde Woman who went to the Cockpit's seat!
Ita looked stunned.
Xu Xi was slightly taken aback, clearly surprised that the Blonde Woman had emerged from the Restroom.
Just then, "Manya" on the other side had completed her zombie transformation again, lunging at Flight Attendant Percy with a large gash in her neck.
Amidst the jolting and screams, the Blonde Woman slowly raised her head, her gaze icy as she looked at the two people closest to her.
When Itanu saw the young man take two steps back after reminding him, he immediately understood.
It's time for him to show his worth.
Without hesitation, he activated the Item and faced the Blonde Woman holding up her cutlery.
"Sizzle--"
The sharp tip of the cutlery drew a spark across the golden barrier.
Upon their initial exchange, Itanu frowned slightly.
The Blonde Woman was stronger than he had anticipated. He could suppress her for the time being, but it would be difficult to defeat her in a short period of time.
However, his Item have a limited usage period.
The utensil came down again, Itanu raised his left arm to block it, while his right hand slashed in from the side and grabbed the other man's wrist.
He turned his head to dodge the other hand that was grabbing at his face, and twisted the other person's arms tightly together behind his back.
But the Blonde Woman seemed oblivious to the pain, twisting her body in an extremely contorted position and opening her mouth to bite Itanu's wrist.
Just as Itanu was about to loosen his grip and raise his knee to push the man away, a fruit knife suddenly appeared from the side and plunged into the man's neck at a tricky angle.
The Blonde Woman's body suddenly stiffened, and her limbs twitched violently a few times.
"Hehe..."
As Itanu released her grip, the Blonde Woman slowly slumped to the ground, her grey-blue eyes, which had been filled with madness, gradually losing their luster.
Itanu turned his head and saw the black-haired youth casually pull out a fruit knife, swiftly and neatly.
... So, they just wanted him to be a shield.
