There is One New Rule Every Month Globally

Li Yide was not at all a stranger to them.

By a twist of fate, they had quite a few interactions with Li Yide.

Moreover, the last time they went to that race outside of the timeline, they even took Li Yide with them, so they had a bit of rapport.

Especially that conspicuous Fox Tail, it was just too easy to recognize.

The identification was indeed too high.

"Tsk..."

Tuberculosis Rabbit crouched down, picked up a small twig from the side, looked at Li Yide lying on the ground, and prodded his Fox Tail with the twig, a touch of emotion in his voice, "It's clear that you must have endured some inhuman torture."

At that moment, Li Yide lay on the ground, convulsing violently as if he would take his last breath the next second.

Of course, he was definitely not going to die.

It just looked a bit creepy.

At Chen Yi's signal, Tuberculosis Rabbit pulled out a tube of painkillers from his bosom and jabbed it into Li Yide's buttocks.

"Pzzt!"

Soon after the injection was finished, the previously convulsing Li Yide visibly calmed down, and after a while, he rolled over and sat up, looking up at Chen Yi and others standing to the side.

He was taken aback for a moment before his hoarse voice, somewhat unrecognizable, said, "Yi?"

"How come you're here?"

Then he remembered what had just happened, felt the faint pain in his buttocks, glanced at the fallen syringe on the ground, and hoarsely said, "Thanks Yi, I feel much better now."

"Mm..."

Tuberculosis Rabbit rummaged through the backpack for a moment, then excitedly pulled out a Prop from his bosom with a flourish, "Ta-da!!! Outdoor Bath Spray, let's give you a wash."

Tuberculosis Rabbit held the sprayer above Li Yide's head, and soon a large amount of clear spring water gushed out.

...

Five minutes later.

The sticky substance on Li Yide's body was basically washed away.

And Li Yide's condition seemed much better, he looked a lot more normal, completely lacking the vacant stupor he had when he had just fallen to the ground.

"Feeling better?"

Seeing Li Yide feeling better, Tuberculosis Rabbit crouched down, lit a cigarette and put it to his lips, looking at Li Yide curiously, "If you're feeling better, tell us about what it felt like just now, you seemed quite comfortable squirming in that stomach."

"Like the head-banging youth in nightclubs."

"..."

A single sentence immediately dragged the recovering Li Yide back to the haunting memories that had just passed, as he looked pale and with bruised lips towards that huge monster not far away and whispered.

"I had a mission to enter a map, and the entrance to that map was in this city, so I came."

"I didn't expect that after I arrived, I encountered that monster emerging from the sea and coming ashore."

"At that time, everyone who saw this scene was excited; the monster looked like a hidden boss, and defeating this boss would surely bring rewards too large to fit in a backpack, right?"

"Besides, with no death this month, hardly any players were afraid!"

"At the moment the monster came ashore, we, the players who received the news first and were the fastest, had already rushed over, aiming to claim the rewards before other players could arrive."

"However, we had just approached the pink magnetic field around the monster when suddenly we heard numerous promotions in our ears, alerting us that we were affected by dozens of bizarre rules, and then we lost consciousness."

"When we came to again, we found ourselves in the midst of a fleshy wall, looking through the semi-transparent wall at the vague, illusory city outside, and we realized instantly that we had been swallowed into the monster's belly."

"Nearly all players immediately attacked the surrounding esophageal walls, trying to break through the monster's body to escape!"

"However—"

"It was no use."

"The defensive strength of the monster's esophageal wall was shockingly high; no one, including me, could break it, and other players could only be helplessly pushed into the stomach by the movement of the esophageal muscles."

"I was different; I had a Fox Tail, I had a Flight Prop, and I started flying up through the esophagus, planning to fly out of the monster's mouth and then make other plans. But at the very upper end of the monster's esophagus, there was something like a manhole cover."

"It only opened when eating and was otherwise closed."

"Extremely hard, utterly indestructible, not that it was hard per se—it felt like a flesh cap that was sticky to the touch, and when pressed with a finger, it felt like pressing waterlogged pork."

"It didn't look sturdy, but no matter how much force I exerted, I couldn't inflict any damage at all on that flesh cap!"

"Then the monster suddenly stuck its tongue out from its mouth down into the esophagus for a poke, for fuck's sake, how can a creature do that, using its own tongue for an endoscopy?"

"And just like that, I was poked down into the stomach."

"The monster's stomach was full of gastric acid, let alone the smell, the acidity was so strong that in an instant my limbs and belly were corroded to the point of seeing bones."

"That was a pain I had never experienced in my life."

Saying so, Li Yide, hugging his knees sitting on the ground, couldn't help shivering, swallowed, then looked again at the monster not far away, his voice hoarse and eyes filled with fear, whispering.
