Welcome to the Nightmare Live

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

I grass, I grass, I grass!

Wen Jianyan's expression froze slightly, and she couldn't help screaming in her heart.

The half sentence that hadn't been blurted out was swallowed back into his throat, he turned his head sharply, and began to run wildly along the runway.

Behind him, the footsteps of the "teammates" followed like a shadow, as if they also quickened their pace.

"What's wrong?"

From behind came the usual voices of his teammates, as if they were really surprised by Wen Jianyan's behavior.

Su Cheng's voice also came from behind:

"Why are you running so fast?"

Wen Jianyan: "..."

In this situation, can I still live if I run slower!

The sky was dark, and except for the blood-red runway under the feet, everything else was soaked in bottomless darkness. Crunch, crunch.

The soles of the shoes crushed the rubber particles on the runway, and there was a regular friction sound in the dead silence.

Wen Jianyan accelerated and ran forward while looking down at the phone in his hand.

There are still seven minutes left before the end of twenty minutes.

Chengran said that he is in a crisis now, but the rules of the dungeon will not change, that is to say, as long as he runs for another 20 minutes, the crisis in the physical education class will be resolved, and he will be able to leave here.

Wen Jianyan secretly turned her head and glanced behind her.

Just one glance sent a chill down his back.

The "teammates" with a strange smile on their faces were rushing towards him. Those pale faces looked even more frightening against the black sky and the red runway.

"Hey!"

"Don't run so fast, wait for us!"

I'm waiting for you big head ghost.

Wen Jianyan quickly looked away and continued to run at full speed.

The blood-red runway looks more bright red and dazzling in the darkness, but as Wen Jianyan speeds up, the rubber particles that were originally recommended under his feet seem to have changed the touch, becoming a little sticky, and every time he lifts his feet, he will It brought a sense of sluggishness like being stuck, and greatly consumed his physical strength.

After the sixth lap, Wen Jianyan was no longer as relaxed as before. He was panting slightly, his cheekbones were flushed, and hot sweat was dripping from his forehead.

I don't know if he ran too fast just now, his head seems a little dizzy. Wen Jianyan lowered his eyes and looked at the time.

There are three minutes left before the end.

In other words, as long as the last lap is completed, the physical education class will be over. With his remaining physical strength, it is not difficult to run the rest of the distance at full speed.

It was because of Wen Jianyan's slight pause that the "teammates" behind him had already caught up. The sound of footsteps knocked on the back of his head, which made his scalp tingle. "!"

Wen Jianyan's heart tightened.

I rely on!

He hurriedly quickened his pace again.

However, at this moment, several figures gradually appeared in the darkness at the end of the runway ahead.

Standing straight not far away, with bloodless, pale faces facing this direction, Wen Jianyan vaguely saw that their arms were wearing familiar red armbands, which were shining brightly and were very dazzling

Wen Jianyan was taken aback, his brain, which was hazy due to physical exertion, seemed to be sounded as an alarm.

Someone from the student council? Why are they in-

Just when he was deep in thought, suddenly, "Orange Candy" voice came from behind: "Hey, did you see something strange?"

Wen Jianyan was startled.

Because... the other party's tone was too real.

He couldn't hold back, turned his head subconsciously, and looked at the place where the sound came from.

"In your eyes, are we not the same as before?" 'Fuzi Tang' stopped his pace a little, stopped chasing forward, and asked. The weird smile on her face didn't disappear, but her voice and tone were completely the same as those in her memory.

"Just now you ran so fast suddenly, we almost missed you," 'Su Cheng' followed pantingly, and also stopped.

His tone was also very familiar, with concern in his reason, which was in sharp contrast to the weirdly distorted expression on his face with a piercing smile,

"It's just now that Tangerine Tang realized that your san value has become too low, so you may see pictures that are different from reality, and you will become paranoid and suspicious. Even familiar people look different from usual It's the same."'Su Cheng' raised his hands and made a gesture of surrender:

"I know, we may look like monsters in your eyes now, but we won't get close to you now, so listen to me..."

He breathed a sigh of relief, although you are still like Bai Xiangqu, with a real smile, Ji Yinru is calm and familiar, to the point of being pleasing..."Don't do it again Moving forward."

Wen Jianyan stood on the spot, took a fixed look at them, then turned to stand on the spot and looked towards the end of the runway. The few members of the student union in student uniforms and armbands were still standing there, watching him from afar.

Indeed, before the physical education class started, the orange essence had reminded him of the risk of lowering the san value. These include hallucinations, paranoia, and madness.

In other words, the possibility that "the strange appearance of his teammates is just his fantasy" does exist, just to drive him in a dangerous direction, just like what happened in the swimming pool of the gymnasium before. If you wake up, you will be led into the most dangerous place, and you will never be able to recover.

But... At the same time, "they" may also be lying. These remarks about "san value" and "illusion" are all made to prevent him from crossing the finish line and leaving the danger zone. A flat lie.

Who do you trust? Who is lying?

Wen Jianyan stood where he was, his chest heaved violently from the rapid running just now, his black hair was wet with sweat, and stuck tightly to his pale forehead.

[Integrity First] Live Room:

"Day, the anchor is shaken."

"Nonsense, whoever wins will not be swayed!! To be honest, I am also confused, which side should I believe." "I don't know..."

"Ahhh", has anyone seen this dungeon come out and said, this feeling of not being able to believe anything is really weird, let alone the host, I can't bear it through the screen! "

"Aren't you annoying? Since the gymnasium just now, there have always been people who have seen it on the bullet screen and called out to those who have seen it to come out and talk about it. Are they sick? People who have seen this dungeon don't know the answer to this sentence. Do you want to say it a few more times?"

"To be honest... Logically speaking, choosing track and field is the safest part of physical education. As for why this happens... I don't know either!"

"???"

"No, it's hard for me to say whether the anchor is lucky or not. Why did he open a new line that hasn't been opened before?"

"It's normal. After all, the characteristic of open dungeons is that there are many branch thieves. No matter how many times you open it, there will always be a branch that has not appeared before. However, this time the opening seems to be a bit different from before. .Suddenly feel that this dungeon is not as boring as before."

"Thanks to the anchor, for saving this low-risk, low-mortality, and low-viewing value dungeon. It's only been a while, and it's almost a danger that ordinary anchors can't encounter in a whole dungeon!"

Wen Jianyan stood where he was.

He heard the "dong dong" sound of his heartbeat, which was gradually amplified and amplified, becoming the most noisy sound source in the whole world.

For some reason, he felt a strange sense of dissociation.

It's like... There seemed to be a bad signal between the body and the soul, and there was a subtle out-of-sync, which gave him an inexplicable illusion as if he was floating in the air. Weird blotches and flashes of color started to appear around the edges of vision as well.

Tick, tick.

He seemed to hear the passage of time, urging him across the finish line.

In the distance, the faces of Su Cheng and Orange Tang alternated. Their voices seemed to be close at hand, but also seemed to come from far away, calling for him.

... "don't go forward" ... "come back quickly" ...

""

Wen Jianyan raised his eyes, as if he wanted to see something, but he couldn't find the target, so he could only lower his eyes again.

Within sight, the blood-red runway turned bright red, and every grain of rubber became very strange. Wen Jianyan couldn't see things far away, but he could see things under his feet clearly.

Each rubber particle turned into a red eyeball the size of a needle, densely distributed under the feet, each screaming silently, making a voice that overlapped his buttocks, and questioned him:

How to choose?

What to choose?

Hurry up hurry up hurry up! If you don't hurry up, you will die soon, you will die soon, you will die soon, you will die soon——

The voice grew louder and more chaotic.

"Uh."

Wen Jianyan frowned, with a thin murmur coming from his throat, beads of sweat were densely covered on his pale face, and there was a somewhat unclear halo in his light-colored eyes.

Seeing this scene, the quarrel in the [Integrity First] live broadcast room suddenly stopped:

"Wait a minute, isn't there something wrong with the anchor's status?"

"I also think, what's the matter?"

"Is the san value too low? But the judgment of the san value in this dungeon seems to be not very strict. It has dropped so much before and there is no response. Why is it suddenly happening now?"

"I couldn't hold back just now, and exchanged points for an audience-limited spoiler tip. Look, how can I say... the current situation of the anchor, I would say that it is the most dangerous in the entire dungeon so far. It is not an exaggeration."

Wen Jianyan's eyes drooped, and his somewhat dazed gaze fell on the blood-red runway. He raised his hand slowly.

As if his fingers were frozen, he began to unbutton the button numbly and unfamiliarly.

[Integrity First] Live Room:

"?"

"??!!"

The thin buttons were undone one by one, exposing the chest and abdomen, and the blood-stained bandage was tightly wrapped around it.

Who should I trust?

With trembling fingers, Wen Jianyan began to tear off the bandage.

In the half-open shirt, the bandages were spread out, revealing the fair skin. The scars on it were about to heal, and the edges of the blood scabs turned a tight and translucent pink.

Where is the letter?

Wen Jianyan's fingers landed on the wound.

……Do not.

He doesn't believe anyone.

No one believes it.

There seemed to be something sharp buzzing and screaming deep in my heart: no one can believe it, no one should believe it.

Wen Jianyan's movements were a little dull and slow, and his neatly trimmed nails sank deeply into the blood scab on the wound, tearing open the tender flesh that had just grown. Blood oozes drop by drop, slides down the chest, wets the bandage in the blink of an eye, even the corner of the white shirt is stained with red blood.

Pain grew out of the numbness, and in that chaotic sense of dissociation spawned subtle and intermittent lucidities.

His legs started to move, his body swayed slightly, and he took a slow step back.

[Integrity First] Live Room:

"?"

"?! What is the anchor planning to do?"

"Retreat? Where can he retreat..."

Wen Jianyan took another step back.

He was running along the inner circle of the runway. Although he only took two short steps back, he was already close to the edge of the runway. Taking another step back, Wen Jianyan was about to leave the track and enter the dusty football field.

Suddenly, all the voices in the ear became sharp, hitting the eardrum heavily.

Su Cheng screamed: "Don't go there!"

Tangerine Candy's voice was mixed in: "Come back soon!"

The sound of messy footsteps sounded again, but this time, they approached from both sides at the same time.

In the distance, the members of the student union on the finish line were not waiting, and began to walk quickly in this direction, and the pale faces were getting closer and closer.

……not enough.

Wen Jianyan wanted to increase the strength in his hands, but he could mobilize too few muscles. On the pale face, the eyelashes drooped and trembled slightly.

He curled up his fingers and began to press the edge of the Ouroboros ring into the wound. The next second, the skin that was only slightly damaged just now opened up along the texture of the skin, as if cut by a sharp knife, and the ring began Swallowing blood, the snake's eyes shone red in the darkness.

Before being touched by countless palms, he staggered and slowly took another step back.

This time, Wen Jianyan completely left the runway.

The moment Wen Jianyan left the track with his last foot, it was as if his whole body was pulled out of a dissociated state. He took a deep breath, his face turned pale, and he yanked his finger out of the wound. Withdrawing from his chest, the unprecedented numb expression on his face disappeared, and he stared at the runway in front of him with a face of shock, panting rapidly.

In the distance, a student council member with an armband on his arm ran over.

The faces of "Su Cheng" and "Chair Sugar" began to distort, and they were replaced by pale, stiff faces with gloomy expressions. They also wore blood red armbands on their arms.

The members of the student union stood on the scarlet runway that was exactly the same color as their armbands, and looked over coldly-

Each one is fake.

They stood on the runway, only one step away from Wen Jianyan, but they seemed to be separated from the sky, standing firmly in place, watching him closely with clear, dead-like eyes.

Wen Jianyan's forehead was covered with cold sweat.

Although he was far away from the runway, his brain still hadn't fully become clear, and hallucinatory light spots still appeared at the edge of his vision from time to time, and his thinking became intermittent because of this, but at least he could barely organize his thinking.

He struggled, raised his eyes with difficulty, and forced a glance at the upper right corner.

The originally clear numbers were very blurred, and even began to have double images.

HP: ■■

San value: 27

Under his gaze, the number behind the san value jumped slightly, and slowly changed to 26.

It's a... runway... problem.

Just staying on the runway...will...reduce the san.

Wen Jianyan shook his head and poked the wound on his chest with all his strength: "——————————————————————" The pain woke him up slightly.

The san value in this dungeon is different from the ones he has been exposed to in the previous dungeons. Although its early drop will bring about temperature differences and make the anchor enter a vulnerable state, the anchor himself is not How strong the superposition of negative states will be felt-this is naturally conducive to action on the one hand, but on the other hand, it will also aggravate people's numbness, causing the san value to continue to decline.

Although pain is frightening, it is also a time of warning and self-protection.

Once this early warning system fails, the human body will lose its ability to defend itself, just like a frog boiled in warm water, allowing itself to be exposed to danger.

Moreover, it now appears that this numb state will subtly affect people's thinking ability.

Wen Jianyan increased the strength in his hand, scratched the wound dripping with blood, on the edge of hallucinations and clarity, forced himself to recall in a masochistic way——

Since entering the gymnasium, he seldom [actively] looked at his san value, for no other reason, but simply... being forgotten. Even after leaving the gymnasium, it was Tangerine Candy who asked about his stats that he remembered to check it.

After setting foot on the runway, Wen Jianyan completely [forgot] the existence of the san value, even though he had seen the vision, he was not prepared to check it at all.

And when the san value is reduced to a certain level, after breaking through a certain threshold, a qualitative change will occur. The false calm numbness was gone, replaced by hallucinations of chaotic mania.

While Wen Jianyan was forcing himself to think, some viewers in the [Integrity First] live broadcast room suddenly noticed the fluctuation of his san value. The slightly shaking number stayed on 26 for more than ten seconds without changing, and then slowly, little by little, it jumped up one space.

27.

"?"

"??"

"I'll go, san value has increased?"

"Wait a minute, the anchor didn't use any props just now, did he?"

"He can't use it either!"

"Is it an error in Nightmare's system display? I remember that in this case, the san value will only continue to fall, right? How could it not only not fall, but also rise a little bit, and it may be repaired later."

As her spirit stabilized, Wen Jianyan remembered more fragments.

And just now, when he was standing on the runway, he was trying to do something.

Thinking about it now... Wen Jianyan seemed to have vaguely sensed that something was wrong, so he wanted to take a look at his San value. But, under the constant influence of runway and low-san, he failed.

As soon as he raised his eyes, he immediately forgot what he was going to do, as if the matter of "checking the san value" itself had been quietly erased from his mind.

Wen Jianyan's fingers sank deeply into the wound, he touched the edge of his bloody flesh, and pressed against his fingers warmly and swollen.

The feeling of pain is a little far away.

His breath was hot, and his eyes seemed to be beating.

It seems that as the san value decreases, the anchor seems to gradually forget the setting itself.

[Integrity First] Live Room:

"!!"

"I'm going, san's value is 28! 28 friends!"

"I'm stupid, it's awesome. It's the first time I've seen someone directly use willpower to stop the decline of the San value and let the number go up!"

Suddenly, Wen Jianyan heard a sigh in his ear. Very far, very light.

"?!"

Wen Jianyan froze for a moment, then raised her eyes slowly.

The few members of the student union who had a cold breath were still standing a few steps away, watching him expressionlessly. The sigh just now did not seem to come from their mouths anyway.

"Here." A familiar, deep voice sounded.

Wen Jianyan looked over in a daze, and met a pair of golden eyes looming in the darkness. His lips moved.

……witch?

[Integrity First] Live Room:

"?"

"? The anchor is looking at the air and saying what?"

"I don't know, I can't hear you clearly."

"So it must be a system bug just now! Right? Now the anchor has all kinds of hallucinations and auditory hallucinations. It can be seen that the san value is so low that it will be sent soon. How can it increase?"

Wen Jianyan raised his hand and scooped the air in front of him. His fingers passed through the phantom of the witch candle in the air.

Nothing came across.

It was indeed an illusion.

So, why is this guy lingering in hallucinations?

Wu Zhu: "You want to touch me?"

Wen Jianyan looked away.

"It's not impossible." Wu Zhu said.

Wen Jianyan ignored the hallucination.

Although his current san value is indeed a bit too low, it is not low enough to ask and answer his own hallucinations.

"Don't humans hurt?"

The other party's bony fingers touched the torn open, bloody wound on his chest. It didn't hurt, but it was a little cold.

The bandage was torn apart, one side was unraveled, while the other side was tightened, with a soft arc slightly bulging at the edge. Beneath the bright red blood was pale and moist skin.

"But it's pretty." Wu Zhu said.

Wen Jianyan: "..."

"Can I lick it?" Wu Zhu asked politely.

Wen Jianyan: "..."

Wu Zhu leaned over and approached.

"Well, how about you kiss me and I'll take you out?"

Wen Jianyan took a deep breath, he couldn't bear it anymore, turned his eyes to look at the other party, and finally broke his habit of not talking directly to the hallucination: "... Get out."*

Twenty minutes was up.

Su Cheng, Tangerine Tang, Weicheng and others crossed the finish line one after another.

After crossing the finish line, the numb look on their faces suddenly disappeared, revealing a sudden sober expression.

"What happened earlier?"

Tian Ye panted, and turned his head to look at the runway behind him in a daze.

He remembered that he started to run, and the more he ran, the more confused his mind became, his legs moved like a machine, and he continued to move forward and forward without listening to him... When he came back to his senses, he had already appeared on the runway It's over.

Although Gao Zitang is small, she has better physical strength than anyone else. She ran for a full twenty minutes without seeing her breathing disordered at all.

She glanced at the bracelet on her hand—it was redeemed and activated after she slept through the entire professional class, and it was a type of prop like Wen Jianyan's bone wind chime. It will break and fall to the ground. However, the bracelet is still well worn on her thin wrist, although the edges are a bit frayed, but it is far from broken.

Tangerine Candy pursed its lips in disappointment, "cut" and said with a bit of annoyance, "Nothing happened."

"really."

Acropolis breathed steadily and said affirmatively.

If anything was too dangerous on the runway, he would be the first to sense it.

It seems that physical education classes are similar to professional classes. They are semi-mandatory courses where props cannot be used during the course, but there will be no fatal threats during the course.

"Hey!" Suddenly, Tian Ye seemed to have discovered Shi Shi, and shouted in surprise, "Speaking of which, my San value has dropped a little, but my physical strength has also increased!"

The rest of the people were taken aback, checking their stamina one after another.

Sure enough, after running for 20 minutes, although their san values ​​had dropped by three to five points, their physical strength had been greatly restored.

"No way," Weicheng widened his eyes slightly in surprise, "the physical education class in this dungeon can really strengthen the body?" Tian Ye was also a little dazed: "Damn, this is the first time I have seen such an honest class. Introduction, awesome."

At the same time, their student cards have also received credits that can be consumed, which means that their courses can be regarded as temporarily over. From this point of view, the low viewing rating of this dungeon is understandable.

Although they have been here for two days, there are not many crises that can really determine life and death.

It even goes so far as to say that as long as one obeys the fixed class process of the entire university, is cautious, and adds a little bit of luck, most of the dangers can basically be avoided.

"Wait, something's not right."

Su Cheng's eyes fell on the runway behind him, and his brows were tightly frowned.

What about Wen Jianyan?

After they passed the finish line, people still appeared one after another. These anchors should have also chosen the track and field event. However, before they crossed the finish line, they were completely invisible. Only after crossing the finish line can we return to reality.

Although there are first and last, but it shouldn't be so long before they show up.

"?!"

Everyone was shocked and immediately realized that something was wrong.

""

Gao Zitang frowned, and rarely restrained his nonchalant smile, and walked over with a rare seriousness:

"Step aside."

The rest of the people got out of the way one after another, and Tangerine Tang walked inward along the runway.

Although she crossed the finish line, the figure of Tangerine Candy did not disappear. On the contrary, behind her, more anchors gradually appeared from the empty runway, crossed the finish line, and came to In reality.

It seems that this is a road that can only go out and not enter.

"Try it with props." Weicheng said. "no."

Yun Bilan shook her head, her face was a little ugly.

Apparently, just when Chuozitang was trying to walk back, she was also trying, but the props showed that Wen Jianyan's position was beyond the range of use, and she couldn't pull him out.

"What's going on?" Tian Ye was a little at a loss, "Is it because the san value is too low?"

Could it be that after the san value is low to a certain extent, will the situation encountered have such a big deviation from other people?

"Maybe." Tangerine Tang narrowed his eyes and said slowly, "...but it shouldn't be."

Just at this time, suddenly, a tall man who looked so familiar came from a distance. It's Hugo.

He seems to have finally solved the mess in the previous gymnasium and came to the playground.

He walked over with one hand in his pocket, and quickly realized that something was wrong with the atmosphere. Hugo frowned slightly: "What happened?"

He looked around and quickly understood the situation: "Is someone missing?"

"Hey," Tangerine Candy looked at Hugo and asked seriously, "Have you ever provoked any difficult and dangerous things before?"

Although Hugo didn't know why Tangerine Candy asked such a question, he still answered very frankly: "Yes."

really.

Trough Sugar showed a grinning expression, then pushed down forcefully, landed on Hugo's feet fiercely, and twisted hard. ""

Hugo's brows twitched, but he forcibly endured the pain. "What's wrong?"

Orange Candy: "That guy just signed in for you."

She increased the strength of her feet, still with a smile on her face: "I didn't expect it, this time it's actually your fault!"

As soon as these words came out, Hugo seemed to realize something, he was slightly taken aback, and his expression immediately became dignified.

"Tell me, what's going on?"

"... Speaking of which, I didn't know that this kind of thing would happen." Hugo raised his hand, pinched the bridge of his nose, and sighed:

"In short, if my guess is correct, the source of his danger now should be the student union."

Su Cheng's voice raised a bit: "...what?"

Even Tangerine Candy was stunned: "What?"

"Remember the red cloth I used to block the windows of the gym?" Hugo said.

Acropolis: "... I remember." He had an ominous premonition.

Hugo: "That's the armband of a member of the student union. I can't wear it because I'm not a member of the student union. However, even so, it can still play a non-small island role."

Hugo: "In short, its origin is not very legitimate."

Su Cheng: "...What do you mean it's not proper?" Hugo: "Breaking school rules."

Everyone: "..."

Now, they also had an ominous premonition.

"That's why I don't take the required courses," Hugo said. "It's a lot of trouble to be found by them."

Everyone: …………………” Grass.

They finally understood now that Wen Jianyan was mistaken for Hugo who violated the school rules, so he was found by the student union and used as a scapegoat for the unlucky guy.

"It really is because of you!"

The smile on Tangerine's face also disappeared, she kicked Hugo's calf viciously, without stopping, even Hugo couldn't help twisting his thick head in pain. "You're in charge of cleaning up your mess!"

Hugo knew he was wrong: "...Okay."

The reason why he did not choose to solve the student union, but to settle for the next best thing, there must be a reason why he chose not to show up in class and quit the hunt, obviously, this thing is not a hero

Not only is Wen Jianyan in danger, but what's worse, his current san value is not high. This time it is likely to be a death crisis that even senior anchors can hardly escape.

"If that guy comes back in full this time, you really owe him a big debt," Tangerine Tang said, grinding his back molars. Instead of answering the small matter, he helped him solve the big problem of the student union.

"Give me a good thank you, you know!"

Hugo: "...I know."
