Welcome to the Nightmare Live

Just like last time, the hotel manager walked slowly forward with a lightly lit lamp in his hand. The corridor was dark, with no end or end in sight. The only thing that could be seen was the wallpaper next to him that was illuminated by the faint light.

The atmosphere was depressing, and it was eerily quiet.

Several people silently followed behind the hotel manager, following him in the boundless darkness.

Everything was the same as last time, but due to the hotel manager's remarks just now, there was a strange tension in the air.

"The banquet is about to start."

This is undoubtedly telling them in disguise that the final moment of the entire copy is coming soon.

Wen Jianyan tightened his fingers, and he held the hard-covered book in his hand, which seemed to have a damp and sticky touch. He sorted out his thoughts little by little in his mind.

At this moment, the context of the entire dungeon has been sorted out.

That vaguely-faced woman in white was the host chosen by some kind of "high-dimensional existence", or rather, a puppet, she was manipulated to kill all the children in the elementary school and make their souls into "food for ghosts" ". And at this moment, the most crucial, in the original dungeon, the key mission item that Hugo had to spend a lot of time getting, was honestly staying in his pocket at this moment.

but……

Wen Jianyan lowered her eyes, her eyes fell on her toes, and her brows involuntarily frowned slightly. I always felt that there was something that I didn't fully see.

While he was thinking, the hotel manager had already led them to the elevator.

The elevator seemed to have been waiting for a long time, and it opened with a "ding" sound.

The scarlet blood-like light flowed down, like some kind of viscous liquid, overflowing outside the elevator.

The hotel manager stepped in first.

Several others followed.

The elevator moved slowly again.

The atmosphere was so tense that it was almost impossible to breathe.

As the long silence passed, the elevator made a "ding" sound again and slowly opened to both sides.

Unlike last time, this time, the corridor of the hotel was no longer pitch-dark, but a slightly dim ceiling light illuminated everything clearly.

Reddish lights, neat wallpaper, dull, dusty carpet. And the rooms with the [Do Not Disturb] lights that are closed on both sides.

"..."

The few people who followed the hotel manager were startled and exchanged a quick glance with each other.

You know, the hotel they were in before has changed beyond recognition.

The wall carpet is covered with cracks like a butterfly net, and the rain is pouring in endlessly through the cracks. The equipment is aging, the lights are flickering, and it can even be extinguished due to the effect of the props. It is almost like it is going to collapse. However, in the hotel Under the leadership of the manager, they now... come to the hotel at the beginning

How is this going

Everyone had a confused look on their faces.

Wen Jianyan was startled for a while, then quickly calmed down.

As the only one of all who had access to the original copy, he knew the situation best.

He originally thought that the mirrored Xingwang Hotel was destroyed at the beginning because it was invaded by the original sub-body, so it was gradually showing its original state of superiority, but as he entered Hako Garden, he saw the real "Xingwang Hotel". , I realized how far I was wrong. There is no rain in a truly prosperous hotel, so naturally there is no "invasion" or "invasion".

So, there is only one possibility.

The collapse of the mirror world is only because the dungeon has come to an end, and the nightmare has no need to maintain it, so it will appear that way at the end. And what they are now in is the real [Xingwang Hotel].

When he went to them to talk about it here, he was the one who cultivated it without taking it from his hands, because at that time, the Xingwang Hotel was still a teacher, all kinds of suffering could happen, and there was a silent box lotus buried in it. It is a node that has been bent, a node that has fallen from the sky

With the entry of Wen Jianyan, the entire node began to be re-observed, and the little garden disappeared, and it could no longer be called a "black box".

So, this time, what they entered was a complete, illuminated copy of the real thing. 【Xingwang Hotel】.

Soon, the hotel manager stopped in front of a corridor.

Although the lamp in the corridor was already on, he still held the lamp in his hand, and the yellowish light fell on his pale and stiff face, illuminating the corner of his raised mouth: "This is it. ."

Wen Jianyan looked behind him.

Although the lights were on, he could still tell that this was the corridor they came from last night. Official staff dormitory.

It is also a temporary "safe zone" for copies.

——At least that was the case last night.

"Please go back to your room to rest for a while and get dressed," the hotel manager said with an unchanging smile on his face, "I will inform you when the banquet is ready." After speaking, he turned around , Like when he came, Shi Shiran left.

Watching the back of the hotel manager disappear from sight, Yun Bilan turned her head and looked straight at Wen Jianyan: "Are you serious?" She took a deep breath and lowered her voice:

"Which children's souls do you have?"

Wen Jianyan nodded.

Obviously, that's what's inside the black box.

"Let's go, say while walking," Yun Bilan made a gesture and took a step.

Chen Mo, who was beside him, seemed to have finally recovered from the shocking news. He turned his head to look at Wen Jianyan, with a rare serious expression on his face:

"Captain, do you know what this thing means?"

Wen Jianyan nodded again.

In this dungeon, I am afraid no one knows better than him what this item means.

--victory.

The black box was lying in the pocket, heavy, and it looked particularly awkward through the half-wet cloth.

The advantage that Black occupies is almost meaningless in front of the sacrificial props that existed in the original copy.

After all, it was created in the first place to feed some Specter, so even if the number of interns used by Black to sacrifice is more, it is definitely not as good as these ready-made bait that have been prepared. Jian Yan even witnessed "how the dungeon should end with the trend" in the original dungeon's [Box Garden].

According to the guidance of the woman in white in the painting, Hugo entered the painting shop to get the props by himself, and then opened the prison. Since they have succeeded once, then there is no reason for them to fail this time.

In a sense, the props in this box can be said to be the direct ticket for them to win the confrontation this time and obtain the platinum achievement.

In the team, even though everyone tried their best to suppress it, they couldn't help showing a trace of excitement. It is really hard to find a place to break through the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it.

Just now they were still under the shadow of the captain's absence, dealing with Black and fighting hard, but with the appearance of Wen Jianyan with key props, the situation turned around. Simply a victory delivered to the hand.

""

Wen Jianyan glanced at everyone, hesitated for a while, but still didn't speak.

Although the entire dungeon is as invisible as a house with lights on, there are still a few points left in places far from the "truth of the dungeon" and the "match victory or defeat". Silent and irrelevant. but……

For some reason, Wen Jianyan just couldn't ignore them completely.

"Don't be too happy yet," Chen Mo calmed down quickly, he warned, "Since we know its importance, then Black also knows it." There was a dignified expression on his face:

"This is the prop for the decisive victory. Black will never give up and give up the victory."

"Next, from now to the banquet, we must be extra cautious." Chen Mo said.

Listening to his words, everyone's expressions gradually became solemn.

"What about the other red teams?" Huang Mao asked in a low voice.

When they were coagulating in the corridor and Heifang before, they scattered and blocked in different directions of the corridor. After encountering Wen Jianji, the hotel turned off the lights and the hotel manager appeared. That is to say, since the coagulation just now, they I haven't had time to meet the other red teams.

Everyone looked at each other.

Although, no matter which team of the red team activates the props and completes the dinner, it can be regarded as a victory for the red team, but for different teams, the difference is much bigger. After all, [Platinum Achievement] rewards are given out on a single team basis. No one can guarantee that other red teams will have two hearts because of this.

"The props don't have to be shared in advance, and everything will be discussed after the banquet starts." Chen Mo thought for a while and replied.

Wen Jianyan never said a word. He lowered his eyes, seemingly absent-minded.

Huang Mao walked at the forefront, he raised his hand and pressed it on the doorknob in front of him, and was about to press it down. At this moment, a hoarse voice came from behind: "It will die."

"?!"

Huang Mao's heart throbbed, and he subconsciously turned his head to look in the direction from which the voice came.

The boy with pale hair and complexion raised his head and stared at him with his bottomless, black eyes, and said expressionlessly.

Wen Jianyan was startled and pulled out of his own thoughts.

What?

The expression on Yun Bilan's face condensed, "What do you mean the current staff rest area is no longer safe?"

"..."

Bai Xue remained expressionless and did not answer.

Wen Jianyan knew the reason.

Due to the special nature of his talent, although Bai Xue can accurately know the probability of something happening, he has no idea what the reason is and how such an outcome happened.

"Retreat one after another." Wen Jianyan said immediately.

Everyone moved away from the door, standing back to back, paying attention to their surroundings with extreme caution.

Everything seems to be the same as before.

Calm hallways, dim lights, closed doors.

There is no difference at all with the memory, and there is no sign of fatal danger. However, no one could ignore Snow White's warning.

In the entire previous dungeon, they had personally experienced his near-terrifying "prophecy".

Several people stood tensely on the spot, looking around.

There was still no difference in the hallway.

"Captain, try this," said Chen Mo, opened his backpack and took out a small, very old-looking Chinese-style porcelain bottle with faint cracks on it. He handed the porcelain bottle to Wen Jian Word.

"This is a prop I got in a Chinese copy, cow tears, smear two drops on the eyelids, you can see the dangers lurking around."

This is a consumption type, not an activation item. There are not many Peng Lei in a bottle, not to mention that Chen Mo has used it several times in other countries, so now there are only four left. Five drops, it is absolutely impossible to use it for everyone in the full recognition. In this situation, it is natural to give the number of times to the person with the strongest ability, the highest judgment and execution ability in the team.

Wen Jianyan did not refuse.

He took the porcelain bottle, and according to Chen Mo's suggestion, he put two drops of cold liquid on his fingertips and gently wiped it on his eyelids.

Wen Jianyan opened her eyes.

The corridor in front of him is still the same as before, but it seems to have undergone earth-shaking changes. Air is red.

As in the previous elevators, the cold scarlet light was like flowing blood, shrouding the surroundings so tightly that it was almost breathless.

In this rich red, in front of the closed door, the "Do Not Disturb" light was slightly on, which was particularly dazzling in the dim light. The viscous, blood-like light flowed out from under the crack of the door, just looking at it, it made one's back feel cold, and the hair on the back stood upright.

"..."

Wen Jianyan was stunned for a moment, and his eyes stayed on the "Do Not Disturb" light.

――This is not a "staff rest area", but a bedroom for the residents!

But the problem is that they did indeed go to the staff rest area just now.

In an instant, a coolness hit and climbed up his back.

It seems that they have gone down the wrong path under some invisible inducement.

According to Wen Jianyan's understanding of the copy, there is no similar mechanism in either the original copy or the mirror copy, so there is only one possibility.

Black.

Moreover, I am afraid that they were recruited the moment the hotel manager left.

Wen Jianyan turned his head sharply, looked at his teammates beside him, lowered his voice, and said hurriedly, "When we came, Black was already waiting here, hurry up—"

However, just as he turned around, the rest of the words were stuck in his throat.

"..."

Wen Jianyan's face turned pale, showing a tongue-tied look.

The others watched him nervously "What's the matter?"

They didn't know that under the blood-colored light, their eyes were covered with a faint layer of black mist, which looked like... a hand.

As time passed, the shape of that hand gradually became solid, and it was firmly covering their eyes.

Is this... a ghost covering its eyes?

Da da da,"

There were regular footsteps from behind.

Wen Jianyan's eyes narrowed.

He lowered his voice and said to his teammates: "Hold your hand and listen to my orders later."

Immediately afterwards, Wen Jianyan stuffed the cow's tears into Huang Mao's hands and whispered:

"Go to the back of the line and find your way back to the staff rest area."

After speaking, without waiting for a response, Wen Jianyan turned around and looked in the direction of the voice. The figures of the gentleman and Anis appeared not far away.

The expression on Anis' face was extremely cold. A hazy phantom surrounded his shoulders. He stared at Wen Jianyan with his slightly protruding eyes, as if he was looking at a dead man. Obviously, he is still haunted by what Wen Jianyan has just done.

On the side, although the gentleman still maintains the politeness on the surface, Wen Jianyan still sees the coldness beneath his calm appearance on that dignified face. Obviously, it's not that he doesn't hold a grudge against Wen Jianyan's actions just now.

"Good evening," he said, touching the brim of his hat.

The gentleman's indifferent gaze moved to the silent Bai Xue, and the corner of his mouth raised: "It seems that our old acquaintances prevented you from directly exposing the corpse in the corridor." There was a bit of regret in his voice.

"I didn't expect you to still act together."

The gentleman raised his eyes to look at Wen Jianyan, and there was a bit of playfulness in his voice: "It seems that no one has really started to die in your team."

"Why, our cute little Baixue has actually changed her character this time," the gentleman said with a smile, "Can't you bear to start?"

- Start?

Everyone couldn't help but startled, and subconsciously turned their heads to look at Bai Xue on the side.

"...

Bai Xue stood on the spot with no expression on her face, and did not seem to be touched by the gentleman's words.

"It's enough to be soft-hearted once or twice," the gentleman sighed vaguely, as if he was very concerned, "You won't forget the price of your soft-heartedness in the past, right?"

"..."

Like an emotionless wooden clay puppet, Bai Xue said nothing and did not respond.

However, whether it was an illusion or not, his snow-white, spotless eyelashes seemed to move slightly.

"cost?"

Wen Jianyan took a step forward.

He turned his head and glanced at Bai Xue, and suddenly realized:

"Ah, could it be that you are talking about the rumored "curse"? "

The slender young man squinted his eyes, his light-colored eyeballs gleamed between the gaps of his eyelashes, and there was a casual smile on his lips. He raised his hand and put his arm lazily on Snow White's shoulder.

Bai Xue's body trembled, and reflexively wanted to step back, but was pulled back by Wen Jianyan forcefully.

"If you can't even bear this rumored curse, then you'll die somewhere else in the nightmare anyway, won't you?"

The young man leaned on the boy who was half his head smaller than himself. He yawned a little. In addition to his cynical laziness, there seemed to be some unquestionable, powerful and transcendent arrogance.

The gentleman's eyes fell on Wen Jianyan again.

"My life is hard and it's hard to die."

Wen Jianyan tilted her head and smiled: "what a curse is not a curse... just try it."

""

Bai Xue seemed to be stunned for a moment, he raised his eyes silently, and his eyes stayed on Wen Jianyan's face for a moment.

"at this point,"

Wen Jianyan looked at the Black team not far away, with a hint of sarcasm in her voice:

"I thought you found it in this copy."

The gentleman's expression darkened slightly.

His always polite, unwavering outer shell seemed to crack a thin crack, and a corner of his smiling face peeled off.

"Okay, don't say more if it's useless." Unlike a gentleman, Anis doesn't seem to be prepared for these twists and turns. He took a step forward and fell on Wen Jianyan with murderous cold eyes: "I think, you took something that belonged to me."

"yes"

Wen Jianyan shrugged and said casually, "Then you may have to watch a little more." "And, what did I take?" Wen Jianyan smiled slightly, looking innocent and beating: "The key is better left in in your pockets?"

"I advise you not to talk big in this situation."

Anis' face twitched for a moment, the corners of his mouth slowly raised, revealing an angry smile.

He said grimly:

"This time we caught you."

As his voice fell, the two slowly walked out from behind him with stiff steps.

Although Wen Jianyan's face was still calm, she couldn't help but be surprised.

He recognized the faces of the two men.

There are three teams in the red team that have become regular employees, and the one who appears behind Anis is the captain of the other two teams. The two of them had their eyes wide open, their expressions sullen, and they stood firmly behind Anis in a rigid posture as if they were being manipulated.

"..."

Wen Jianyan's heart trembled slightly.

He knew that the Black team was very strong, but this was the first time he had seen the strength of the opponent with his own eyes.

In such a short period of time after he became ill, the Black side could not only find out the hands and feet he had done, but also instantly understood the context of the matter, and then launched a countermeasure to control the other two small-like recognitions of the Red side. Long, and laying traps before the arrival of Hong Fang Xiaoyi, no matter which point, it is terrifying when you think about it.

It seems that Black is really serious.

In a reckless fight, the strength of the red team is far inferior to that of the black team, which both sides are well aware of. Therefore, no matter which time it was before, Wen Jianyan deliberately avoided confrontation with the other side.

The many previous "victories" were all achieved when he cheated, concealed his eyes, and made use of the asymmetry between information.

If it is strictly true, Black is actually cautious in the entire copy, and is in a state of closing his hands.

In the first half of the national sports, so even if they met Wen Jianyan on the road, they were even pitted and almost entered the road, they did not take "killing Wen Jianyan's team" as their first goal, Because, their main purpose is to "find their own portraits in the home", to save the other copies in the nightmare, rather than to kill the red party.

In the second half of the dungeon, Wen Jianyan was trapped in Little Garden, and Yun Bilan and Chen Mo were in charge of leading the team.

During this period, the red team organized more team members, but the black team, whose number was much smaller than its own, still did not cause any effective attrition. This actually explained the problem.

During this period of time, in the face of the provocation of the red side, although they fell behind many times, they did not move the truth.

Because, after thoroughly understanding the dungeon mechanism, Black has already secured the victory. They know that the red team that does not control the number of victims is not competitive at the dinner party.

But it's different now.

Because they knew that the other party used the key to open the box, and obtained the most crucial item in the entire dungeon, even the decisive item. For the first time, the Black team lost control of the victory. So, they finally started to get real.

The props, talents... and other resources at the bottom of the box began to be thrown out without money.

Wen Jianyan's time into the nightmare is still very short, and in this respect, compared with them, it can even be considered stretched. If it is foreseen elsewhere in the copy, he still has a chance of winning.

But the problem is that the last "banquet" completely cut off the mobility and flexibility that Wen Jianyan depended on for a living.

Each team must be led by the hotel manager in order to move from the mirror copy to the original copy, so this is the first time that Wen Jianyan's [location] and [identity] have been fixed. Cheating loses the environment.

Wen Jianyan was forced into a situation where she could compete with the opponent for strength. He's not a good material for fighting people.

However, the only good thing is that...

Before this conversation took place, Wen Jianyan had anticipated the possibility of such a situation and made corresponding preparations.

Anis reaches out:

"give me."

He smiled grimly, "Otherwise, you will all die."

Wen Jianyan blinked and smiled shyly at Anis who was not far away: "You don't really think that I'll be deceived by your words?"

"..." Anis frowned.

Wen Jianyan raised her eyes and said calmly with a slight smile on her lips.

"With your strength, there is really no need for ghosts to cover our eyes, let us take the initiative to come to the door of the guest's room and lure us in, right?"

Black has absolutely strong hard power, and for the first time, it has taken the lead in time and position. It not only locked the place where Wen Jianyan's team appeared, but also had the opportunity to set up an ambush. However, what they did was to use ghosts to cover their eyes and induce them to push the door in. Even after being exposed, they still "politely" asked Wen Jianyan to take the initiative to hand over the props, which was unreasonable.

"In this area before the banquet, regular employees can't kill each other, can they?" Wen Jianyan blinked slyly.

Being led to the hotel by the hotel manager and before the banquet starts, there will be uncontrollable melee, and, depending on the order of arrival, the anchors will get an absolute advantage, and it all depends on luck. This kind of thing does not happen in high-level copies. The only logical explanation, then, is...

In this area, only ghosts can kill people, and there can be no infighting between people.

The gentleman and Anis in the front had slightly sullen faces.

"However, it's not impossible for me to hand it over, unless..." Wen Jianyan extended her tone with a smile. In the next second, his expression turned positive and he whispered:

"run."

After speaking, he grabbed Bai Xue next to him with one hand, then turned around without warning, and rushed out like a rabbit.

With Wen Jianyan's previous tips, the others were already ready to run away.

Huang Mao was at the back of the team, using his extraordinary eyesight and Chen Mo's props to take advantage of Wen Jianyan's attention in front of the Black side, delaying the time, to find and confirm the way back to the staff rest area. With Jian Yan's order, the other people quickly and tacitly held their hands, and under the leadership of Huang Mao, they ran all the way down the corridor!

【Integrity First】Live Room:

"Grass."

"Grass."

"If you can't beat it, run away, as expected of you!"

"Laugh to death, I've forced the anchor's basic operations."

Behind him, the gentleman and Anis were stunned, and neither seemed to expect Wen Jianyan to apply oil to the soles of his feet and slip away so quickly. However, as the background of Wen Jianyan and his party gradually moved away, the two of them did not seem to have any plans to catch up immediately.

The gentleman shook his head with a smile on his face, "Let's run away again."

"Let him run."

Anis sneered, with a cold look in his eyes: "They won't be able to run for long."

Saying that, they looked at each other and smiled at the same time.

In the empty corridor, Gentleman Anis and his party stepped forward and walked unhurriedly towards the place where Wen Jianyan disappeared. Seems like a sure bet.
