Chapter 1866: Chapter 1711: Escape Game 63
Something burst through Miao Shuangshuang’s clothing from under her ribs, emerging through the hole in her clothes.
Miao Shuangshuang stared in shock at the four extra arms that had suddenly grown from under her ribs, almost unable to comprehend that such things were growing from her body!
In addition to this, Miao Shuangshuang noticed changes in her eyes. While their shape hadn’t altered, she could now see everything around her in a full 360 degrees.
This perspective was truly stunning, as even the space behind her was clearly visible, including the pair of huge, transparent wings growing from her back.
The wings, eyes, and extra arms made Miao Shuangshuang feel like she’d suddenly turned into a superhero—capable of flying, seeing without blind spots, and having extra arms to use.
However, these newly sprouted four arms weren’t very agile, but not to the point of being uncontrollable. Miao Shuangshuang tried moving her newly grown arms.
They moved, they could form a fist, and their strength was no less than her original arms. Although initially surprised, Miao Shuangshuang quickly calmed down and began to explore controlling the extra four arms.
Meanwhile, Lin Yu and Chi Qing, upon suddenly discovering they had four extra arms and had turned into a monstrous form, were at first slightly panicked.
But seeing Miao Shuangshuang’s calm demeanor, both of them also felt at ease. Unconsciously, they had already started to see Miao Shuangshuang as their backbone.
No matter the scenario they faced, as long as they saw Miao Shuangshuang’s ever-calm demeanor, they felt there was no need to panic in any circumstance.
Miao Shuangshuang discovered that with practice, these newly grown four arms became more agile. At first, she had some trouble commanding them, but things improved quickly.
Miao Shuangshuang told Chi Qing and Lin Yu, "Before the game starts, you two should practice using these new arms. These arms must have grown because of the game.
Since the game let us grow these four arms, they must be useful. It would be problematic if, when we needed them, the arms wouldn’t obey.
The wings too, must be learned to be used skillfully. The game wouldn’t let us grow useless things. Perhaps the wings have an even greater use, so you must learn how to utilize them."
Upon hearing Miao Shuangshuang’s words, Chi Qing and Lin Yu immediately began to practice using the newly grown four arms, occasionally moving their wings as well.
Compared to using arms, mastering the wings was undoubtedly more challenging. Humans have long used their arms and know how to command them.
Thus, it didn’t take Miao Shuangshuang long to use the newly grown four arms skillfully. Once she mastered their use, she realized how convenient an extra four arms were.
For instance, previously, if she held things with both hands, there’d be no other hands left to work with. But now, with four arms grown out of thin air, it might not look elegant, but it’s so much more convenient, making fights even better.
The arms were relatively easy to use, and after Miao Shuangshuang mastered them, it didn’t take long for Lin Yu and Chi Qing to also use their four extra arms skillfully.
However, when it came to the wings, using them wasn’t as easy to get accustomed to as the arms. Humanity has never had wings; wings belong to the sky, an area where humans lack experience and skill.
So even Miao Shuangshuang was initially clueless about how to use the wings. She could only imitate birds, flapping her wings continuously, trying to fly.
Unfortunately, each time she managed only a little lift before falling back down, and when the wings flapped, if they accidentally rubbed together, they produced a loud, piercing noise.
In a survival horror game, noise often represents danger luring nearby. If the wings kept making noise, it would be like constantly signaling to the enemy, "I’m here."
Therefore, while continuously experimenting with how to fly using her wings, Miao Shuangshuang also tried hard not to let her wings rub together and create noise.
Other players around also had situations similar to Miao Shuangshuang’s. Upon discovering wings and arms grew on them, they began to cautiously study controlling the new arms and use the wings to fly.
After a moment of panic, the other players, seeing their peers learning to use their arms and wings, immediately started to follow suit.
No matter how they used their wings, flying was impossible, only managing a bit of ground drag, which made Miao Shuangshuang slightly anxious.
Although games usually allow a period for players to adjust and observe before starting, no one knows how much time the game will allocate.
This time, the game might grant a bit more time for players to get used to controlling the extra wings, arms, and eye vision, but it surely wouldn’t be too long.
If they couldn’t master the wings by the time the game started, who knew what dangers they might face, greatly reducing their survival odds.
Miao Shuangshuang looked up at the wardrobe that seemed like a skyscraper and recalled how eagles’ young are kicked off cliffs to learn to fly between life and death.
Of course, Miao Shuangshuang wouldn’t use life-threatening tactics to learn to use her wings. With her Inner Strength being very rich now, Miao Shuangshuang was confident that jumping from the wardrobe wouldn’t kill her.
Therefore, why not try the way eagles learn to fly, jumping from a height to master controlling her wings in the face of crisis.
With that thought in mind, Miao Shuangshuang grabbed the wardrobe frame with all six of her hands and kicked off, trying to climb up. But before she could ascend, Chi Qing and Lin Yu grabbed her hands and feet from either side.
Chi Qing’s eyes were filled with fear as he said, "Sister Shuangshuang, what are you doing? You’re not trying to climb up there to jump and learn to fly, right? This wardrobe is so high, aren’t you afraid of falling to your death!"
Lin Yu was equally anxious, "Shuangshuang, I know you’re eager to learn to fly, but you can’t be so reckless. Even if we can’t fly, we might still pass the game."
Miao Shuangshuang was somewhat at a loss to whether to laugh or cry as she was held by both Chi Qing and Lin Yu, unable to continue climbing. "Do I look like someone who acts rashly without regard for life and death?"
Uh...
Chi Qing and Lin Yu exchanged a glance, realizing that since they’d known Miao Shuangshuang, they’d never seen her act impulsively—she’d always been very calm.
The two released her, and Chi Qing asked puzzled, "Then, Sister Shuangshuang, why are you climbing the wardrobe? It’s so high, you could end up a splat on the ground."
Miao Shuangshuang confidently stated, "Rest assured, my Inner Strength has achieved Great Success. I’m confident that even if I jump from this wardrobe, nothing will happen to me. I wouldn’t gamble my life like that."
