Welcome to the Nightmare Live

Chapter 257

Wen Jianyan suddenly realized that something was wrong.

With the faint light from the candlestick in his hand, he saw the "customer" standing still not far away.

It stood upright on the spot, its body was upright, and the old cloth on its body was dirty and rotten. Obviously... I don't know when it turned into a posture facing itself.

He couldn't see anything clearly in the darkness, but he somehow felt that he was being "watched".

"!"

Wen Jianyan's hair stood on end.

not good!

The image of the candle burning just now flashed in my mind.

At that moment, I am afraid that I am too close to the "customer"...

The reason why "customers" did not attack humans after entering the store was because all the anchors would gather near the counter at that time, and the light of the oil lamps not only attracted customers to enter the store, but also made them temporarily invisible to the existence of human beings. To be safe, "customers" will come in to buy items and leave, and only when there is nothing in the store will they ignore the rules and attack humans - like the first customer on the fourth floor.

The second customer came from another shop, and it was guided here under the rules of the spell, and its purpose was only to "eat".

Wen Jianyan clenched the candlestick tightly, and under the weak candlelight, he saw that blue-black corpse spots appeared on the back of his hand, as if it was gradually decaying at a fast speed.

A cold, death-like feeling quickly rose from the soles of my feet.

He knew that he was being "attacked" right now.

Wen Jianyan's forehead oozes cold sweat, and a strong sense of ominous rises from the bottom of her heart.

shit.

If he doesn't leave soon, he might really die here——

Wen Jianyan was about to step back when suddenly, he was startled.

He noticed that his current state seems to be different from the teammate who was targeted just now.

Moreover, more importantly, the rotting corpse spots did not start near the neck, that is to say...

In this way, Wen Jianyan quickly cast a glance at the incense burner not far away.

The position of the burning red dot has not changed.

really.

Wen Jianyan narrowed her eyes.

Looking at it like this, he is not a "tribute" for the time being.

After dripping blood into the incense burner, the "customer"'s attention was diverted from the first victim and walked towards the incense burner, but before it could continue to eat, it was too close because of its own distance. The protective effect of candles is far less than that of oil lamps, so this time the attack is not "eating", but pure killing without any hidden chill.

At the moment of realizing this, Wen Jianyan felt a layer of cold sweat seeping out of her back.

Not out of fear, but out of excitement.

According to his previous thinking, this terrible surrogacy state is unsolvable, because now the "customer" is still judged to be in other stores, so, whether it is the props in the dungeon or the props outside the dungeon, all It can't work on it. Even if it is successfully sent away, their side will uselessly consume precious resources, and finally watch it leave for nothing.

Those sacrifices that can share the damage are useless, and the red light that can attract the attention of the "customer" cannot touch it, because the actual attack location of the "customer" is now determined in other stores, not here.

And this seemingly incomprehensible state has changed now, because Wen Jianyan found that being too close to him can stimulate the "customer"'s desire to kill.

Wen Jianyan stared at the customer not far away, her breathing became slightly rapid.

...This also means that as long as he gets close enough, he can be judged to be within the attack distance.

make an impact on it!

His eyes fell on the crooked pitch-black spell, he took a deep breath, gritted his teeth, made up his mind, instead of retreating, he advanced, and slowly took a step forward.

Within the line of sight, the figure of the "customer" became clearer. The dark and dirty cloth, the rotten blue-black palms hanging on the sides, did not reveal a terrifying aura.

After calming down, Wen Jianyan quickly realized that although it "notice" its existence and launched an attack, this attack was much slower than the previous customers.

It seems that this means that the mechanism of the spell is also a double-edged sword.

Although it prevents them from interfering with customers who are judged to be [in another space], in the same way, customers who are [in another space] will be at a greater risk of attacking them. Decline.

In a sense, it is also protection.

Although the way the spell transfers the risk is very sinister, in the same way, for them in a different dimension, revealing the spell will be less difficult than sticking the spell.

This is good news.

Wen Jianyan plucked up his courage, took another step forward, reached out to the standing "customer", and approached the spell on it carefully.

[Integrity First] Live Room:

"Ah, ah, ah, I'm going, I'm going!"

"Woo, warm and awesome! I thought they would be pitted this time, but I didn't expect ..."

"So nervous!"

"Even this kind of invisible pit can be avoided... How much did the anchor know about this copy, this is too scary!"

"Well!"

As the distance got closer, Wen Jianyan's throat let out a painful groan.

An icy feeling rose from the soles of his feet and quickly spread all over his body, as if his entire body was immersed in the cold pool.

Life force quickly drains from the body.

His vision began to blur, and his legs gradually became unruly.

Closer indeed.

Wen Jianyan raised her hand, pale blood loss, fingers with rotting corpse spots gradually approached the "customer" exuding a horror atmosphere, the distance gradually narrowed, and shortened to a distance of centimeters.

Soon, soon!

He stared at the gradually decreasing distance, and as long as he moved his hand forward a little, he would be able to touch the blue-black terrifying spell!

"Cough, cough, cough!"

In the darkness, the "customer" who had been inactive until now slowly turned his head and "looked" at Wen Jianyan's hand stretched out in midair.

The sluggishness that had been there before was gone.

At this moment, Wen Jianyan felt as if he was facing the corpse in a state of no protection at all.

The protective layer created by the distance difference created by the spell is gone.

In an instant, a strong sense of panic swept through the body.

will be killed!

Must be killed!

However, dragging his weak body to this distance is already the limit of Wen Jianyan. His limbs have gradually lost consciousness, as if they do not belong to him, even though every cell in his body is screaming. Run away, but his body seems to be against him.

There is absolutely no way to move!

In an instant, a sense of powerlessness came over him.

Wen Jianyan gritted her teeth and was about to give it a try, and finally took a gamble - to see if she was the first to lift the spell, or if she would be killed by the curse on the "customer" first!

[Integrity First] The live broadcast room was also infected by such a tense atmosphere, and the barrage became rare, as if there was no time to distract.

A barrage suddenly jumped out:

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

"Huh? Wait? What do you mean?"

"You don't think that sticking spells and revealing spells have no price, right? Sticking spells needs to consume half of a living person's life force, and the same is true for revealing spells... If it's someone else, it's fine, but the anchor has sacrificed three times before. One-half of the life force has gone out, and now that he is being targeted, his body is still being eaten away and become rotten, if he comes to expose it, then he will definitely die!"

"!!Grass!"

"Ah, ah, is that so! No wonder the current state of the anchor looks so bad!"

"Grass, it's over!"

At this moment, a voice came from behind Wen Jianyan without warning, breaking the silence:

"Hey!"

In Wen Jianyan's buzzing ears, the sound seemed extraordinarily unfamiliar and distant, and it took him two seconds to realize the source of the sound—

"...?"

The next second, before he could react, a strong force came from behind, pulling him and flying backwards.

Wen Jianyan felt dizzy for a while, and the world turned upside down before his eyes. His body had already reached the limit. Under this pull, he lost his balance and fell straight back, and the candlestick came out of his hand.

"Are you still alive?"

A grumpy-sounding voice came from overhead.

Wen Jianyan raised her heavy eyelids with difficulty and looked in the direction from which the voice came.

Under the faint candlelight, Orange Candy's impatient face looked very close: "Didn't you be a sacrifice once? Why is it you again? Do you really want to die?"

"... orange candy?"

Wen Jianyan was startled.

"It's me." Orange Candy lowered her head, glanced at the other party in disgust, then released her hand hastily, and rubbed the palm of her hand that had touched Wen Jianyan's arm on her body, "I noticed that the customer didn't follow, Something wasn't right, so I chased after you, but I didn't expect to witness the scene of your suicide."

"And are you too heavy?"

A burst of hurried footsteps sounded, and Zhang Yu and Acropolis quickly ran from the darkness behind them.

The two squatted down and helped Wen Jianyan up.

Their movements are far softer than orange candy: "How is it, are you okay? What happened?"

Wen Jianyan sat up with the strength of the two and looked in the direction of the "customer".

Sure enough, the insensitive power brought by the "spell" does exist.

After Wen Jianyan left its attack range, the "customer" turned around straightly, strode stiffly, and walked towards the incense burner step by step, ready to continue enjoying the tribute.

"Quick..." Wen Jianyan raised her hand with difficulty and grabbed Zhang Yu's sleeve, "Stop it! Never let it go near the incense burner and start eating!"

"It was driven by the anchors of other stores. Before the spell was lifted, all our efforts were in vain! We will make wedding clothes for others!"

Wen Jian spoke very fast, just a few words, other anchors understood the current situation, they couldn't help but take a breath, and their expressions became slightly solemn.

"So it's right to reveal the talisman, right?" Orange Candy narrowed her eyes and shoved the candlestick in her hand to the Acropolis beside her, "You two stay here."

"it is good."

Acropolis nodded.

He has confidence in the ability of his own captain. Although it is dangerous to reveal the charm from customers, it should not be a big problem for Tangerine Candy.

"..."

Wen Jianyan's eyes darkened, and he leaned on Zhang Yu's body in a daze, almost falling into a semi-conscious state.

Sure enough, although red candles are dangerous, they are far more healing than grey and white candles. Wen Jianyan gasped for a while, but gradually regained her strength.

"Where's the orange candy...?"

he asks.

"Captain has gone to reveal the spell," Acropolis replied.

"I know," Wen Jianyan propped herself on the ground and stood up with difficulty, her face as white as gold, "how long has she been gone?"

"Two or three minutes?"

"That shouldn't be over yet," Wen Jianyan turned to look at Zhang Yu, "Do you still have the charm you bought on the second floor on your body?"

Zhang Yu was startled and nodded: "Naturally."

When they were on the third floor, they didn't have much chance to use this spell, and they didn't know its specific effect, so everything has been preserved until now.

"Take it." Wen Jianyan shoved the candlestick to Zhang Yu, "Keep up with the orange candy."

He said succinctly;

"After the black spell is removed, put the yellow one on it."

Acropolis was startled: "Yellow? What's the use?"

"..." Zhang Yu fixedly glanced at Wen Jianyan, but didn't ask anything, just took a deep breath and answered decisively, "Okay."

In such a race against time, it is imperative to have complete trust in the decisions made by your teammates, or else you risk wasting extremely valuable time.

Zhang Yu stood up, took the candlestick, and walked in the direction of the customer.

With the support of the Acropolis, Wen Jianyan struggled to straighten her upper body, her eyes closely following the candlelight—

He is also gambling.

Since the black charm can make customers change their goals, removing the charm should allow customers to return to the original store.

But in this case, they are still blood loss.

The arrival of this customer has caused them to waste nearly half of the incense. If they just send it back like this, their precious resources will not come back, and they will not be able to get any compensation. .

For the team over there, although the customer was not completely sent away, it also consumed the strength of the hostile team and reduced the harm caused by the "customer".

Wen Jianyan was absolutely not prepared to do such a loss-making business.

It's okay to cheat someone yourself, but to be cheated by someone?

Impossible!

- So, since the customer has come in, don't even think about leaving.

The black spell and the yellow spell are a pair, and they were taken out by the hands in the donation box for them to choose, so their effects should also be paired.

Although the specific function of the yellow talisman is not completely clear, some vague directions can be inferred from the black talisman.

Wen Jianyan took a breath, raised her head, and faced.

A very beautiful face with soft lines turned pale due to weakness, his body was weak and weak, and he could only lean against his teammates limply. His long silver-white hair made him extraordinarily weak and deceiving, but those amber-colored In the depths of his eyes, there was a fox-like cunning and a snake-like cold expression.

Sending the meat to the mouth and sending it away without taking a bite is really not in line with his style of behavior.

Doing business is to buy and sell strongly!
