Chapter 207: Chapter 202 Fear

"Anna, are you there?"

Xiao Yi directly pushed open the door to Liliana’s room.

"Wait! How can you just barge into a lady’s room? That’s incredibly rude!" Nania complained with annoyance.

However, the three of them saw the situation inside Liliana’s room as a result.

Liliana was in her room at the moment, apparently doing something.

She seemed startled when the door was suddenly flung open, even falling off her chair and landing on the floor with a thud.

"Ouch..."

Immediately afterward, the items she had placed beside her were also implicated, falling to the ground and scattering everywhere.

"Anna, are you okay... What is that!"

Clements and Nania had initially felt sorry and concerned after startling Liliana.

But when they saw the things that had fallen on the floor, they were both stunned into silence.

Their pupils dilated in shock.

Because what had fallen to the floor was a bag, and that bag was filled with a white powdery substance.

At the sight of it, a thought unbidden appeared in their minds.

Everyone had gathered here because of some peculiar experiences which left them each with their own set of problems, and Liliana was no exception.

So, what that substance was, they believed they had the answer.

"What is this!?" Nania no longer inquired about Liliana’s condition but asked urgently, "Anna, could you possibly be...!?"

"...No, it’s not what you think!" Liliana was also very nervous, "I... I..."

She looked at the person who had once treated her kindly, now showing such an expression, and fear swelled within her heart.

Because Liliana couldn’t help but remember, those horrifying expressions from people in the past, instilling in her a deep, soul-tugging terror.

At that moment, the scenery around everyone began to twist.

Nania suddenly realized that the distance between her and Liliana had become immensely vast!

To be more precise, Liliana was moving further away from them!

But Liliana had not moved; it was the space between them and Liliana that was stretching, making Liliana seem farther and farther away.

In just the blink of an eye, Liliana appeared infinitely distant.

Immediately after, the distorted world abruptly returned to normal, their vision restoring to the original room.

However, Liliana was no longer there.

"This is..." Nania was dumbfounded; she was confused, "What just happened?"

"This is bad," Clements’s expression also grew pensive, "It seems we’ve frightened Anna, triggering a sense of fear in her heart. Then, this hotel responded to that fear in her heart, distorting reality, which caused her to grow further from us, and eventually disappear. That ever-increasing distance might accurately represent an emotional distance."

"Can you simplify that for me? I don’t understand!" Nania appeared very anxious.

Clements paused for a moment before continuing, "Simply put, we seem to have scared Anna, making her afraid of us. She started to reject us emotionally, and then, this hotel, able to visualize mental images, made her reject us in a very real sense."

"Uh..." Nania still didn’t quite grasp it, her mind preoccupied with one thing, "So where exactly did Anna go? And... why did she have that substance? She’s just a child!"

Clements didn’t have an answer to this either.

At this moment, Clements saw Xiao Yi approaching the white powdery substance that was scattered on the floor.

This wouldn’t have been an issue, but Xiao Yi actually put some of the white powder into his mouth.

Clements was immediately scared, "What are you doing!?"

"You shouldn’t just eat anything!" Nania also noticed Xiao Yi’s action.

But Xiao Yi did not tense up in the intense reaction they expected; instead, he stuck out his tongue.

"Pah! Pah pah! So dry..."

Clements and Nania, upon seeing this, couldn’t help but feel puzzled.

What’s going on?

Then they heard Xiao Yi say, "Isn’t this just flour? What are you all nervous about?"

"...Flour!?"

Clements and Nania were taken aback, and then they decided to try it themselves!

"This... indeed feels like flour," Clements’s eyes widened slightly, "Did we misunderstand? Could it be that child has been eating this thing all along? How could..."

"So that’s how it is!" Nania suddenly felt regret, "Damn it! I actually doubted her without even asking!"

Because they often saw that kind of thing, they had unconsciously jumped to that conclusion.

But Xiao Yi was different; he could not see that kind of thing at all, so naturally, he did not think in that direction.

Watching the two’s remorseful expressions, Xiao Yi said, "I don’t know what you misunderstood, but indeed, it was aunty’s overreaction that frightened her. The child is timid and cannot withstand your threatening questioning."

"Stop, stop," Nania fell to her knees, covering her face with her hands, almost in utter distress.

"Alright, get up," Xiao Yi said, "It was just a misunderstanding, after all. Just explain things clearly. So, for now, we need to find Anna first."

Both nodded and followed Xiao Yi out of the room, in search of Liliana’s whereabouts.

"But where would she go?" Nania asked.

"If the Visualization of Mental Images is caused by this hotel, then she’s probably still inside the hotel," Clements said.

However, Xiao Yi said, "No, I think she must have gone outside the hotel by now."

"Why?" both asked at the same time.

"Haven’t you seen?" Xiao Yi countered, "I saw her run that far away, she must have gone outside the hotel, don’t you have even that basic sense of space?"

"..." Both were silent.

In any case, they decided to first follow Xiao Yi’s suggestion and went to the entrance of the hotel lobby to check the situation.

Clements and Nania were not hopeful; they didn’t think Liliana could be found so easily.

But upon opening the doors of the lobby, they were all stunned.

Outside the hotel, the world had become incredibly distorted!

The sky was no longer blue but split in half by a black line.

Beside the black line, crimson light flowed like water; the rest of the sky was enveloped in darkness.

Not just that, the desolate mountain that was once only occupied by a few of them now swarmed with all sorts of abnormal monsters roaming about.

These creatures... from the lower body to the neck were indistinguishable from normal humans, but where the head should have been was a black dog, still with its forelimbs.

It was as if someone had chopped off a person’s head, cut off the back half of a dog, and then forcibly stitched the two together.

The monsters all looked at Xiao Yi and the others, and then, the black dogs on their heads began emitting a piercing bark!

At the same time, the monsters slowly approached Xiao Yi and the rest, and... in their hands, they each held a cross-shaped long staff.

At the tip of the cross, there were human heads impaled... those heads with expressions of fierce fear might have once been part of the same body as the one carrying them.

Staring at this abnormal world, Clements and Nania stood frozen in place.

"What’s... what’s happening here?"
