The frog’s golden ball—
Find the golden ball within 20 seconds, or else the frog hiding in the mud will emerge, eating the bugs that disturb its peaceful dreams.
As for where the frog will pop out from, it can’t be estimated, because stepping on its squishy skin feels no different than stepping on wet mud.
But this isn’t right.
Bai Youwei stared unblinkingly at the enormously giant frog with a whirlwind of thoughts in her mind.
This isn’t right.
The difficulty level of this stage is too high!
First, one has to evade the trajectory of the golden ball, then overcome the difficulty of walking through the mud soup, and the time to find the golden ball is only a mere 20 seconds!
In the end, they still have to face this frog, as huge as a skyscraper!
A game wouldn’t be possible without giving players any chances to survive.
Even in the last brutal race, as long as you ran fast enough, had abundant physical strength, or had rich knowledge, or answered each question correctly, or were heartless enough to use others as stepping stones — no matter what sort of advantage, you could win the game!
But in this game, Bai Youwei couldn’t see any hope of survival.
How many more people will the frog eat?
When will the game end?
The golden ball has already appeared, who can get the golden ball under the frog’s nose?
Each seemingly simple question is so deadly!
At this moment, the screams in the cave gradually subsided, no figures could be seen at a glance. Only by careful observation, would you find people huddled behind snail shells, shivering in terror.
No one dared to move, even their breaths were lost in the air.
Bai Youwei was unable to move a hair.
She sat in the muddy ground, blending almost perfectly with her surroundings, her shimmering eyes quietly searching for Shen Mo. When she found Shen MO and Tan Xiao hiding in a blind spot behind the frog, she relaxed slightly.
Shen MO is fine.
He is just temporarily safe. No matter how brave he is, he would not be able to face this frog.
The frog, after consuming all the people in front of it, crouched motionless in the mud. Due to its gigantic body or perhaps due to the game design, it didn’t move a muscle.
The situation turned into a stalemate.
Everyone was waiting, waiting for a turn of events.
Time ticked away, as if not much time has passed but also as if every second was agonizing. Finally, the frog showed signs of movement—
It straightened its two fat front flippers, dug through the mud before it, and burrowed.
After pedaling twice with its rear legs, the entire body disappeared into the mud!
The soup of mud rippled for a few seconds and then everything reverted to its initial state.
Bai Youwei closed her eyes, opened them again, and the frog and the golden ball were both out of her sight, leaving only a crowd of traumatized people in the deadly silent surroundings.
After a silent wait, people began to emerge from behind the snail’s shells one by one. They wiped off the mudwater on their faces, their expressions frozen from fear and disbelief.
Shen MO came back to find Bai Youwei, examined her from top to bottom, and asked her, “Are you hurt?”
Bai Youwei shook her head gently.
Shen MO bent down to pick her up and put her on a snail next to them, then turned his head to look at the other people. The crease on his forehead was obvious, hinting at a sense of helplessness.
“The 20 seconds have passed and the golden ball hasn’t been found. I don’t know what this stage of the game could mean.” he said in a low voice.
It certainly does not count as clearing the stage.
But they didn’t turn into puppets either, because they were still alive.contemporary romance
Crying could be heard in the cave.
The survivors were calling out the names of their family members, parents, spouse, classmates, friends… some found bodies with bones smashed by the golden ball; some couldn’t find bodies at all, presumably swallowed by the frog.
Just as the grief was about to overflow, the golden ball appeared again.
“The current game has failed, there are 19 surviving players, now entering the second round of ‘The Frog’s Golden Ball’, please prepare yourselves—”
