Chapter 19 The cake shop on West Street

Chen Ye quickened his pace, taking one step as four steps.

His pace didn't look very fast, but his figure was like a ghost, and he quickly arrived at the entrance of Xining's alley.

Follow the sidewalk under Longhua Avenue, all the way to the west, cross a pedestrian street, and cross the road to Xijiang.

In the early morning, there was very little traffic, and only a few nearby residents were walking here.

Chen Ye opened the Eyes of Luck, and the halo of luck for most residents was surrounded by a white mist, symbolizing ordinary numbers.

A few people will have different halos of luck flowing around them, either black or bloody... When encountering such a halo, you should generally stay farther away.

He found that most of the aborigines with white, black, and blood luck auras had dull eyes and actions as stiff as puppets.

It seems that it does not have life.

It's like they are just replicating the behavior of normal people.

However, the old man with the erhu and the old woman selling chestnuts behave completely like a living person.

Chen Ye couldn't help but frowned.

Various strange phenomena... made him feel that the setting of this city was not that simple, and it was probably an extremely difficult copy.

Therefore, some of the rules I learned during the internal beta may not apply here.

"We need to get more information."

Chen Ye turned on the halo of luck and always kept a distance from the residents whose colors were black and blood.

Although the gaze no longer attracts ridicule from others, but instead attracts hatred. If you don't take the initiative to cause death, you generally won't cause too much trouble to yourself. But you still have to be careful. If you meet an old woman selling chestnuts again, she will be really unbearable.

Soon after, Chen Ye came to West Street.

The main thoroughfare of this pedestrian street is paved with marble, and the shops on both sides are brightly decorated, all using high-end materials.

Before the bloody countdown, this was the most prosperous pedestrian street in Linjiang City, with a high flow of people.

Even in the early morning when the flow of people is at its lowest, you can still see some scattered figures.

At this moment, Chen Ye saw several figures sneaking along the greenway on the left side of the street, slowly crawling...

He narrowed his eyes slightly and discovered that the halo of luck above these people's heads was filled with darkness.

There was nothingness in the center of the halo, and the whirlpool wrapped in pitch black collapsed and fell, as if it was about to fall into an endless abyss, from which it would never be possible to escape.

Chen Ye observed carefully and found that these people were crawling towards a cake shop a hundred meters away.

The cake shop is located at the corner of the pedestrian street, with stained glass windows on both sides. Pieces of exquisite and delicious cakes are displayed next to the window, looking very tempting.

However, there seemed to be no employees in the store, only warm lighting and cozy decoration.

It seemed unattended.

The figures quietly came to the door of the store, glanced at each other, and immediately pushed the door open and entered.

They are well-trained and agile, and their hands quickly reach for the nearest piece of cake at the door of the store. One of them stood guard at the door and opened it to allow his teammates to pass quickly. The other two people quickly hugged the cake closest to the door with both hands. As soon as they picked it up, they ran away as fast as possible...

Suddenly, the lights on the top of the cake shop suddenly went out, and the painted glass windows on both sides were suddenly enveloped in a thick black fog!

It was obviously early in the morning, but the inside of the cake shop seemed to suddenly become dark. Looking from the outside, it was impossible to see clearly what was going on inside.

The face of the young man standing at the door changed, and his facial features suddenly became distorted, as if he had seen some extremely frightening and crazy scene. His feet gave way and he collapsed on the ground. The next second, he was rolling and trying to crawl out of the shop. The corners of his mouth were half-opened, and he let out a strange scream of terror!

However, just halfway through the cry, a tentacle composed of black mist suddenly extended from the shop and covered the young man's body.

The strange black lines covered the young man's entire face, his frightened pupils reflected a look of despair, and his mouth was still trying hard to grow, making a cry for help.

But unfortunately, the sound suddenly stopped halfway out, and the tentacles of black mist had tightly wrapped his whole body, and he quickly entered the store like a dead dog.

boom!

The door of the cake shop was closed tightly, and there seemed to be a faint sound of chewing coming from the shop.

Click! Click!

After a minute or so...

The glass paintings covering both sides slowly faded away, and the warm light enveloped the cake shop again.

However, the cake shop was no longer empty at this time.

Three young men with stiff faces and empty eyes stood at the door.

It was the three people who tried to steal the cake just now!

However, their clothes were uniformly changed into employee uniforms of white shirts and black ties.

The halo above their heads no longer has any color, but is nothingness.

Then, the darkness flowing like ink slowly replaced the nothingness. In the dark center, a bloody strange eye suddenly protruded, as if it had gained life, as if some new monster was born inside!

…………

"This cake shop should be a copy of the game..."

Chen Ye observed with the Eye of Luck and found that the cake shop was shrouded in thick blood.

Although there are similar shops on both sides of the pedestrian street, only the cake shop is surrounded by such a rich blood light.

Considering the current situation...

Obviously, the three people who went in and tried to steal the cake were most likely new players.

They probably got to know each other on the forum, met each other offline, and formed a small team, planning to stay together and look for resources to survive.

Seeing that the cake shop was empty, I thought that if I moved quickly enough, I could steal the cake.

However, these stores are actually the most dangerous.

Only powerful Gui can own real estate, that is their domain!

Aboriginal people who own real estate in "Strange Era" can write the rules in their own territory. The more powerful the scheming, the more complicated the rules written down.

As long as the rules are violated in the field, even the weird ones with stronger weird values ​​will suffer.

Not to mention these three cute new players who have nothing.

Chen Ye shook his head, opened the Eyes of Luck, always pay attention to the dangers around him, and always keep a certain distance from other ghosts surrounded by black and blood-colored auras.

Along the way, along the road shrouded in light white mist, I found no danger and did not encounter anything special.

Although he didn't have the ability to draw hatred with his eyes, Chen Ye tried to walk with his head lowered, limiting his field of vision, and trying not to look at things he shouldn't look at.

Sometimes, even if there is no [poverty-stricken look], if there is something nearby that you shouldn't look at, if you accidentally look at it one more time, it will really explode!

From time to time, he would open his bloody phone and obtain information from the public screens and forums on it.

Unknowingly, Xijiang appeared in front of Chen Ye.

At the entrance of Xijiang Park, two men in security uniforms stood on both sides of the entrance.

Their faces have strange fish scale patterns, golden vertical pupils, and their expressions are solemn and serious.

When Chen Ye walked over, a man with fish scales turned his head and slowly stretched out a finger.

"Pass..."

"One coin!"
