Welcome to the Nightmare Live

Chapter 168

"..."

Seeing the familiar face, Wen Jianyan's body froze.

He stood there, his already pale complexion becoming even more ugly.

Although I'm used to the fact that the house leaks and it rains overnight, it's a bit too much to do this every time!

This is simply not giving anyone any chance to breathe, and even he can't bear it.

The light in the corridor is dim, and it is almost indistinguishable from the fantasy. The tall No. 02 is standing not far away, wearing neat and dry medical clothes, which makes him look out of tune with everything around him.

Between the two of them lay a wriggling corpse.

The "creature" with a human face fell on the ground motionless, the translucent mucous membrane had completely lost its support, and became dry and soft, wrinkled and crooked in the mucus, lying in the mucus Countless pale limbs lie down, and human bodies and faces overlap each other, making meaningless subtle sounds.

In the narrow corridor, the air was stagnant and oppressive.

"I've been thinking, when will I see you again,"

No. 02 laughed, a pair of dark brown eyes flickered with a happy look, and the voice had an exotic and strange tone, which was endowed with a natural hearty charm, "I just didn't expect it to be so fast."

"Thank goodness you escaped."

He took a step forward, lowered his eyes and looked at the insect body on the ground, with a sigh-like smile on his face, "Otherwise I will be very sad."

No. 02 has a sincere expression and seems to be really worried about Wen Jianyan from the bottom of his heart.

"..."

Keenly capturing some of the information in the other party's words, Wen Jianyan's eyes flashed slightly, watching the other party's every move firmly, and slowly asked:

"So, this thing wasn't made by you?"

Perhaps it was because he had just broken free from the illusion, and his voice was still hoarse, as if it had been polished with sandpaper. His voice was interrupted, mixed with unstable breath sounds.

"I?"

No. 02 raised his eyebrows in surprise, "Of course not, why do you think so."

Wen Jianyan's back was still tense, and she didn't react to his answer.

"Well, maybe there's a little bit of my work in it, but trust me, I don't do most of the work,"

No. 02 smiled and raised his hands innocently, showing a look that had nothing to do with it.

"...?"

Wen Jianyan was stunned for a moment, and she didn't react for a while.

No. 02 lowered his head again, and slowly stirred the thin mucous membrane with the tip of his shoe:

"If the 04 guy sees this kind of creature, I'm afraid it will be disgusting and unable to eat for three days... It's so pitiful."

He said words of pity, but the smile on his lips became more conspicuous, as if he was looking forward to that scene.

"What do you mean you don't do most of the work?"

Wen Jianyan asked.

"Literally." No. 02 tilted his head, his eyes were like half-melted chocolate in the dim light, with a little innocent look.

"Speaking of which, your friends seem to be awake."

Saying that, he raised his chin towards the corpse lying between the two.

The thin, sticky rubbing sound became clearer than before, Wen Jianyan was startled, and looked in the direction from which the sound came.

Although the light was weak, he immediately recognized his teammates from the overlapping limbs, Huang Mao, Su Cheng, and Lu Si, who were scattered among the corpses on the ground.

Obviously, they were also swallowed into "it"'s stomach and fell into a deep fantasy.

Compared with before, the volume of these mucus has shrunk by more than half, losing the outer layer of mucous wrapping, it is evaporating at an extremely fast speed and becoming dry.

It was only a few minutes after Wen Jianyan climbed out of its stomach, and the clothes on her body were already half dry.

Perhaps because of this, several other anchors are also getting out of the control of the hallucination little by little.

"Well……"

Su Cheng closed his eyes tightly, groaned in pain, his eyelids twitched, as if he was trying to wake up from a nightmare.

Suddenly, a fierce scream burst out from his yellow hairy throat:

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!!!"

The sharp, piercing voice suddenly cut through the dead silence, and even Wen Jianyan was taken aback.

I don't know what I saw, Huang Mao screamed and waved his arms around randomly. Su Cheng, who was closest to him, was beaten several times, frowning and opening his eyes.

Su Cheng looked around blankly, and after noticing where he was, his face gradually became ugly, and he squeezed a curse from his throat dryly:

"Grass……"

"..."

Although Su Cheng woke up, Wen Jianyan didn't move.

His body tensed slightly in reflex, and his exploratory eyes fell on 02 who was not far away.

The other party seemed to step forward unintentionally, still standing in the same place, standing relaxed, and paying attention to the sound here with great interest.

After realizing that this guy doesn't seem to have any plans to take action for the time being, even with a hint of connivance, Wen Jianyan withdrew his gaze, stepped forward quickly, and dragged Huang Mao who was pressing on Su Cheng and screaming frantically with his eyes closed. down.

The weight that was madly attacking him was finally pulled away, and Su Cheng gasped in shock:

"thanks……"

He stood up with Wen Jianyan's outstretched hand, then stumbled a few steps away from the corpse and mucus as if fleeing, and hurriedly took his eyes back from the hellish disgusting picture in front of him. There was a hideous expression on his face.

Wen Jianyan leaned down and patted Huang Mao's cheek rudely:

"Hey."

"Hey! Wake up!"

He didn't intend to hold back his strength, and red marks quickly appeared on Huang Mao's cheeks.

Huang Mao's eyelids blinked twice and opened blankly.

His eyes looked extraordinarily slack, and the expression on his face was fixed on the extreme panic and panic. It seemed that he had not fully struggled out of the illusion. scream.

Wen Jianyan also broke free from the illusion, so he understood Huang Mao's current state very well.

The illusion was not built on purpose, but was completely based on the ideas and predictions in their minds. If Wen Jianyan hadn't recognized its essence early, I'm afraid the illusion would evolve in a worse and worse direction. After all , in that case, no one can control his prediction of danger.

Especially Huang Mao was the timid and more fragile one among them, and the illusion he encountered would probably be the most terrifying among them.

Wen Jianyan dragged Huang Mao out: "You wake up."

He looked at Su Cheng: "Drag a few others out with me."

Although Su Cheng's face was still pale, he still nodded vigorously, staggered over, and together with Wen Jianyan, turned the three of Luce out of the pile of corpses and dragged them to the dry ground.

The three of Luce on the side are also slowly waking up.

As the illusion dissipated, the fearful expressions on their faces gradually disappeared, turning into a daze of not knowing where they were.

Seeing that everyone had woken up, Wen Jianyan explained what had just happened and his own speculation as quickly as possible.

"You mean... we've been in a fantasy world since we just got off the elevator?"

Luce pressed his forehead with a splitting headache and asked with difficulty.

"Then...then why did we enter the belly of that...thing?" Huang Mao asked stutteringly, his face pale and his expression slightly distorted.

"Because it's lonely."

Not far away, the man's slightly exotic voice sounded.

"!"

Everyone was startled, turned their heads suddenly, and looked in the direction from which the voice came.

02, who was wearing a hospital suit, stood not far away, staring at this side with ease.

The atmosphere suddenly became tense.

Each anchor took a step back subconsciously, watching the familiar face not far away vigilantly - they remembered this person, this guy appeared on the second basement floor and was sent back by the guards later, the patient in ward 02 , if the "worm" on the ground is very dangerous, then the degree of danger of this person can be said to be even worse.

"It needs more people to accompany it."

No. 02 smiled and stepped forward, stepping on the mucous membrane with his toes, squeezing out the sticky sound of water.

"It will only feel safe if you put people in the stomach."

"It's pathetic, isn't it?"

[Integrity First] In the live broadcast room:

"Ah... I just said on the 02nd that there is a little bit of his writing in it. Is that what he said?"

"Day, it's possible!"

"I remember that in his spiritual world, he seems to be the kind of player who is very good at digging out the inner desires and defects of human beings. In short, he is a mental attack type, so you can see that his relationship with the nurse is also the best, compared to 01. This kind of attacker, he and 04 are actually a bit more like a manipulator."

"That is to say, although this worm was not created by him, was he instigated by the worm to eat people?"

"I think it is……!"

"But I'm still shocked. He can actually use his abilities in the surface world. What about the others? No way, right?"

Wen Jianyan watched the other party vigilantly, nodded calmly, and replied:

"really."

"There's no need to be so wary of me." No. 02 smiled slightly.

His smiling face is harmless and refreshing, paired with a light brown complexion and soft curly hair, it's easy to give the illusion of sunshine, "Relax, I'm not like everyone else, I'm not that dangerous."

Wen Jianyan: "..."

Ghosts believe you.

"At least for now," No. 02 smiled deeper, his dark eyes fell on Wen Jianyan's body, and his voice was soft, more like coquettish than negotiating, "So, do you want to take me on the next journey? I am very useful."

...

Several people gathered together and kept a short distance from No. 02, which was not far away.

The other party still maintained the original posture and stood on the spot, as if he didn't mind that the group of people were discussing in private in a place far away from him, with a relaxed expression.

"Isn't it? What's the situation?"

Huang Mao looked in a trance, lowered his voice, and asked almost incredulously, "A high-risk patient wants to work with us? Why?"

Honestly, no one thought things would turn out like this...

It was so unexpected that it was almost difficult to react to it in a timely manner.

First of all, this guy is indeed very dangerous. According to the previous experience in the negative second floor, it can be clearly judged that his degree of danger is not inferior to any other high-risk ones. What's worse, all of them do not know that this guy has joined What is the purpose of , although he looks friendly, it makes people more vigilant.

Bringing him into the team is tantamount to planting a bomb for yourself.

Walk with the wolf, seek skin with the tiger.

Luce looked at Wen Jianyan: "what do you think?"

Wen Jianyan: "..."

What do I think?

How can I see it? I just want to stay as far away from this group of neuroses as possible!

but……

He took a deep breath and said bravely, "I think we might have to agree to his request."

The next journey is full of crises. Although Wen Jianyan doesn't expect No. 02 to be of any help, they can't afford the consequences of feuding with him here now.

In case the hostility of the opponent is aroused after rejection, several blessings, and several enemies, there is a high probability that they will not be able to leave the lower layer alive.

"However, after leaving the basement level, we have to get rid of him as quickly as possible."

Wen Jianyan raised her eyes and quickly glanced at No. 02 not far away, her voice was lower and lighter, and only the people closest to him could hear the content of his words.

"Especially before the bell rings again."

"..."

Several people looked at each other and sighed.

Although they are also very unwilling to accept this result, they have to say that this is probably their only choice now.

In the current situation, the "goodwill" from a high-risk patient, even if one does not know where the goodwill comes from, is far better than hostility.

So, this matter is settled.

In the team of six people, a high-risk patient was inexplicably added.

The corridor was dark and dead, leading silently into the distance.

Everyone was on their backs and their expressions were stiff, but the culprit who caused all this seemed to have no idea, and kept up with the team with a look of comfort. From the beginning, it was the same as being in the team, with a kind of anti-customer-oriented meaning.

Wen Jianyan held the flashlight and walked at the forefront.

He deliberately ignored the sight of the other party falling on his back and walked forward cautiously.

The corridor was dark, and the lampposts overhead seemed to have long since been destroyed. Only a few emergency lights were still on, flickering faintly in the corners, barely illuminating the road ahead.

The iron gate was closed, and the guard station was empty.

Wen Jianyan took a deep breath and continued to walk forward.

He came to the front of the guard station and looked inward through the blurred glass. It was pitch black and could hardly be illuminated by a flashlight, giving an inexplicable feeling of eerie tranquility.

In the half-open window, a row of buttons in front of the stage can be seen, and the smooth surface of the buttons reflects a faint luster.

Wen Jianyan recognized that this should be the button to open the door.

But is it really that simple?

Wen Jianyan didn't think so.

Out of caution, he pondered for a while, then exchanged the props that could stretch, carefully maneuvered the tip forward, found the button, and pressed it hard.

Hearing the familiar "di" sound, the iron door in front of him slammed open.

Wen Jianyan breathed a sigh of relief, and pulled the prop out of the window, but just halfway through, a huge hand suddenly protruded out of the darkness and firmly grasped the tip of the pole.

"Crack!"

The pole is broken.

"!"

really!

Wen Jianyan had expected this for a long time, and reflexively let go of her hand and stepped back abruptly!

One hand, two hands, three hands, four hands—

Countless palms poked out from the darkness, they had no bodies, no heads, only pale, snake-like fingers, one after another, greedily poking towards them!

"Let's go!"

Wen Jianyan dropped the pole, took steps, and rushed towards the door. Several people followed him and rushed forward, trying to find a gap for survival and avoidance from the chasing and blocking of the group of palms.

Several people rushed forward, only No. 02 who followed at the end did not dodge or evade, and let those palms catch his arms and body, dragging him into the darkness.

In the next second, everything was quiet.

Those palms no longer chased them, but all retreated into the darkness, leaving only the empty corridor, a dead silence, extending silently into the distance.

"..."

Several people in the team looked at each other, showing shocked and dazed expressions.

"Exactly," Luce stepped forward quickly and said to Wen Jianyan, "We can just take the opportunity to get rid of him now, why don't we hurry up and move on—"

"..."

Wen Jianyan stared at the direction where No. 02 was dragged in, and shook her head silently: "No."

"Why?" Luce was startled.

Wen Jianyan didn't answer.

Of course, it's because he doesn't think this guy can be thrown away.

As a high-risk patient, No. 02 can't die so easily. More importantly, Wen Jianyan doesn't think this guy will be caught unprepared, especially considering what he said before...

"Maybe there's a little bit of my work in it, but trust me, I don't do most of the work."

No matter how true or false this sentence is, Wen Jianyan has a strong premonition in his heart that this guy will definitely let himself be caught.

For whatever reason, they cannot leave now.

More importantly, this "opportunity" is likely to be handed over by the other party, that is to say, this "abandonment" behavior is likely to be in the other party's arms.

Wen Jianyan turned her head and glanced at her teammates: "you stand there and wait for me."

He retracted his gaze and approached cautiously in the direction of the guard house.

The weak light of the flashlight cannot dispel the shadows and darkness in the narrow space. It can only barely illuminate a blurred outline. Further down, it is a place where light cannot reach.

I couldn't find those fingers, and I couldn't find the figure of No. 02.

Wen Jianyan frowned slightly.

Did he make a mistake in judgment? shouldn't be...

Before he could do anything, without warning, countless pairs of pale palms stretched out from the darkness again! Those hands firmly grasped Wen Jianyan's arms, calves, and body, and pulled him in with an unstoppable force!

Thick darkness came in.

Wen Jianyan heard Su Cheng's startled cry from behind, but before he could hear what the other party was shouting, he was completely engulfed by darkness.

The wrists, arms, torso, legs, and body were fixed by countless cold and pale palms, and they were still dragging him into the swampy shadows.

It was pitch black in front of him, and the fog representing the unknown and danger engulfed Wen Jianyan's whole body, like an endless fall, bringing a strong sense of unease and weightlessness.

However, after a brief panic, Wen Jianyan quickly calmed down.

"Have you had enough?"

He didn't move, he asked peacefully.

"..."

There was silence in the ears.

The heart was beating in the depths of the chest, but the young man's breathing rate was always regular and steady, and he didn't seem to be frightened at all, and his emotions did not ripple at all.

"what……"

A familiar voice with an exotic accent sounded from behind, with a slight smile, "It's a pity that you found out."

Something heavy hits his shoulders.

Pointy, like a chin.

Wen Jianyan's head couldn't move, but he could feel the weight of the other's head and the faint itchiness brought by his breathing, "I heard your conversation."

He seemed to tilt his head, because Wen Jianyan felt the other person's breath fall on his earlobe.

He resisted the urge to back off, but he still didn't say a word.

"Why, do you just believe that I won't be recruited?" No. 02's voice was smiling, and there was no clear change at all.

Wen Jianyan: "..."

The main thing I believe is how difficult it is for high-risk patients.

Most importantly, he hadn't figured out why this guy had to join their team.

"That's secondary," he said calmly. "The most important thing is that temporary teammates are also teammates, don't you think?"

"Of course." No. 02 smiled inexplicably and nodded.

He let go.

In the next second, all the darkness in front of him dissipated, and Wen Jianyan realized that he was standing in the guard room now, while his teammates surrounded the outside in surprise, with a worried look on his face.

02 stood not far behind him, the opponent was tall, almost no less than 01, the narrow space was filled up by him, with a strong sense of presence that could not be ignored.

Wen Jianyan took a deep breath slowly, pushed the door and walked out.

"You're all right—"

Su Cheng's face showed a look of surprise, but before he could finish speaking, his voice got stuck in his throat.

Because he saw 02 walking out behind Wen Jianyan.

And following them out, countless pale palms.

"!!"

Everyone's faces changed greatly and they quickly retreated, but it was strange that they didn't seem to have any intention of rushing forward. On the contrary, those palms lay on the ground, their fingers tapped the ground, and they moved forward Rush, like some kind of independent, intelligent creatures, like spiders, one after another, densely lined up on the ground, rushing forward at different speeds.

The contrast between pitch black and ghastly white is so strong, such a bizarre scene makes one's scalp tingle.

"They're off to find their way."

02 said lazily.

Several people were startled and turned to look over.

Under everyone's stupefied gazes, the brown-skinned, brown-eyed man smiled and said harmlessly: "I said, I'm very useful."
