The entire building was trembling!

Whether the ground or the walls, every piece of flesh shuddered and quivered in the vibration!

Bai Youwei huddled under the table, watching the meat tumors hanging from the table edge shake incessantly. The nausea in her stomach was overwhelming—she truly wished she could just die on the spot!

Fortunately, heaven hadn’t pushed her to the brink of despair. At least there was still one refuge—

She buried her face in Shen Mo’s embrace, pressing tightly against him, breathing deeply. The man’s crisp scent mixed with his sweat could soothe her heart, alleviating the extreme discomfort caused by the chunks of flesh.

Shen Mo was completely unaware.

He had no time to notice how intimate their current position was.

He held Bai Youwei in his arms, his eyes peering through the gap between the tables and chairs at the restaurant entrance, witnessing a giant beast crawling past the door and windows!

Ten minutes ago when he saw it, its body had clearly been as thick as a road, but now its body was so bloated it had filled both sidewalks as well!

Like a rumbling train passing rapidly in front of the door, shaking all nearby buildings!

The shaking lasted a full seven or eight seconds before its body completely passed the entrance!

The vibrations weakened.

Gradually disappearing as the distance increased.

The surroundings finally returned to calm…

…

Shen Mo held Bai Youwei as he stood up, placing her back in the wheelchair. Cheng Weicai, Tan Xiao, and Pan Xiaoxin also emerged from the back kitchen, looking at the two of them with lingering fear.

“Brother Mo…” Tan Xiao glanced back at the kitchen, saying with difficulty, “That guy inside says this is the Snake Maze, and only when the gluttonous snake reaches its longest and largest state will the exit to clear the level open. All his companions who entered with him were eaten by the gluttonous snake, and he was injured while fleeing, trapped here unable to get out.”

Snake Maze?

Shen Mo frowned and said, “That big guy outside does indeed fit the characteristics of a gluttonous snake—after eating, its body grew longer and larger.”

“Is it fast?” Teacher Cheng focused on safety issues. “With our current physical capabilities, if we encounter it, can we escape?”

Shen Mo thought for a moment and slowly shook his head. “The speed change isn’t obvious. In gluttonous snake game mode, speeding up is to increase difficulty—once the snake hits a wall, it’s game-over. But from what I just saw, even if this snake hits a wall it won’t be affected, so increasing speed has no meaning.”

Pan Xiaoxin said with a pale face, “Then… doesn’t that mean this snake will never die?”

“The most important thing about navigating mazes is finding the exit—it was never about fighting and killing monsters.” Bai Youwei said, suppressing her nausea. “But the problem now is… most gluttonous snake games are in infinite mode—there’s no such thing as clearing levels. Although some modes have set levels, they also establish corresponding scoring systems. Only by reaching a certain score does the entrance to the next level open. Could there be a scoring system we don’t know about in this maze?”

After pausing for two seconds, she continued while covering her nose and mouth, “Also… if we keep hiding indoors, how can we judge when it has achieved this condition of longest and largest? Can we really trust what that man said?”

Although thoroughly disgusted, her thinking was still relatively clear.

Shen Mo thought for a moment and said, “Then let’s go in and question him further.”

The group returned to the back kitchen.

The man slumped on the ground saw them return, his expression panicked. “You all saw it, right? That snake… has that snake gotten even longer?”

Shen Mo looked at the other’s fearful appearance, studying the expression on his face, and slowly said, “It did get longer, but because of its size, it seems it can only move outside and cannot enter indoors. We should be relatively safe staying here.”

The man relaxed slightly, then looked outside with trepidation. “When it’s at its maximum and minimum size, those are relatively safe times, but when it’s in the intermediate process, you absolutely cannot let it discover you! That snake eats everything! Besides the flesh here, anything it discovers will be devoured!”
