Welcome to the Nightmare Live

Chapter 63

Su Cheng waited anxiously in the corridor.

Not far away, the door of Room 1316 was closed.

The patent leather on the door panel was mottled and peeled, and the numbers on the brass door number stood out in the dark.

Too quiet.

It's too quiet.

The icy air was filled with a strong smell of blood, and the rust-like smell lingered on the nose, bringing a strong sense of unease. The heart was pounding in the chest, as if it could shatter the ribs.

What's going on inside?

Su Cheng didn't know.

He only knew that the moment Wen Jianyan opened the door, his figure was swept away by some invisible force, and disappeared from his sight in the blink of an eye, and the next second, the door slammed shut, slamming everything The sound and movement were all hidden behind it.

A second before the door closed, the last thing he heard was the sound of flesh being penetrated.

Next, he can only fall into a long wait.

Su Cheng stood in the corridor not far away, his brows furrowed and he was upset, turning his head from time to time to look at the closed door of 1316.

From the beginning until now, nothing has happened.

No sound was heard, and no signal was heard. Except for the thick smell of blood in the air, there was no movement at all.

The young man who was dragged into the room was like a stone sinking into the sea and disappeared without a trace.

Is the liar still alive?

do not know.

Su Cheng still remembered that before entering 1316, Wen Jianyan told him that if he went in for more than five minutes, he didn't need to wait any longer and just left.

Although he did not state the reason, Su Cheng knew that this meant that the other party should have died.

Su Cheng couldn't help lowering his head again and glanced at the phone.

Four minutes have passed.

However, there was still a dead silence in 1316, as if a stone was pressing on his chest, making him almost breathless.

In the live broadcast hall of [Antai Community], the blood-red twenty-minute countdown suspended at the top is beating, and the number above is steadily decreasing over time.

Every now and then, all the audience looked up, anticipating what might happen to the copy after the countdown was over.

Finally, the countdown reaches zero.

Ding!

At that moment, the mechanical sound of the system sounded in the ears of all the anchors:

[Antai Community] The dungeon has been alienated successfully! The difficulty has increased! The new team mode will be unlocked soon: non-confrontational faction battle.

???

Su Cheng narrowed his eyes slightly.

Isn't the pursuit mission that Wen Po released to everyone not alienated content? How come there!

And what the hell is a non-confrontation faction war!

He kind of broke down.

The other streamers who were still fighting stopped involuntarily.

They were also stunned.

Wait a minute, does that mean they're just starting the faction battle now? ... Then what happened to the melee they just had with the Dark Fire Guild's evil spirit believer camp?

[The anchor can spend points to seek help from the designated object outside the copy, and the system will take a 20% commission]

[The supporters and the supporters have the same camp]

[When all the staff arrive, the upgraded map will be opened, and all the anchors will be issued with new ID card content, and random camp allocation will be carried out]

[Faction-based Victory Rules: The first to complete the faction's main quest is the victory]

[All winners survive, all losers are obliterated]

After listening to all the rules, Su Cheng couldn't help his heart skip a beat.

Killed all? !

This is completely different from the last hunting battle. Under such cruel system rules, fighting with one's life has become the only option. As long as the camp fails, all the anchors in the camp will be joined...

Winners live, losers die.

Even just listening to it is heart-wrenching.

Su Cheng lowered his head and opened the Nightmare background on his phone.

A new faction selection screen appears.

The red side is the bodhisattva camp, and the black side is the evil spirit camp.

However, this time the number of red and black squares is all 0. The anchor himself cannot choose a camp actively, and can only wait for the system to randomly assign it.

boom--

There was a faint roar from the depths of the wall, the scarlet lights above the head flickered slightly, and the ground seemed to be shaking invisibly.

Su Cheng was a little dizzy and had to hold on to the wall to stabilize his body.

The brief vibration disappeared, Su Cheng raised his head and looked in the direction of 1316 subconsciously.

The next second, he couldn't help but take a deep breath.

The door panel was covered with spells in red letters on a yellow background, cold and thick chains hung down on both sides of the door panel, and the lock was slanted aside, as if someone had pried it open.

This is clearly... what the outside world looks like!

However, the overhead lights were still a terrifying scarlet color, and the walls were still twisted and weird, and they were clearly what they looked like in the gossip mirror.

Is this... an upgraded new map?

The world outside the mirror is basically completely controlled by Wen Po and her paper figurines. They entered the world inside the mirror to escape the pursuit. If the mirror and the mirror really merge into the same world, then...

Su Cheng shivered, lowered his head and opened the help interface.

There are two options for asking for help. One is to ask for help from the designated object, and the other is to ask for help from idle anchors indiscriminately. Su Cheng gritted his teeth and issued a detailed request for help.

Are you asking for help from the designated target?

Yes.

The balance of 10,000 points was quickly deducted from his account.

Su Cheng waited anxiously, and soon, the cold voice of the system sounded from his ears: Ding! The person who asked for help has accepted your invitation!

In the open space on the side, a familiar figure appeared out of thin air.

Ji Guan's butt fell on the cold and hard ground, his expression twisted slightly, and he grinned and scolded, Grass, it hurts!

Su Cheng was surprised and delighted: You agree to my invitation!

Ji Guan patted the dust on his buttocks and stood up: Of course! You have asked for help, isn't that what I need for help!

He didn't join Wen Jianyan and the others this time, mainly because the number of people who can form a team is limited in different anchor levels. A free D-level anchor without a guild can only form a team of two at most. The same guild can Forming a team of three, Su Cheng, as an anchor who is likely to be targeted by the oracle, is too dangerous to enter the book alone, so this time Ji Guan entered the book alone, while Wen Jianyan and Su Cheng teamed up to enter the book.

I got a C-level book this time. Compared with the previous Fukang Hospital, the difficulty is not a little bit worse... In short, I survived and earned a lot of points. It should be upgraded soon.

Ji Guan sighed and said naggingly: I didn't expect to receive your request for help as soon as I came out, I knew that Wen Jianyan must not be safe, he must have changed the difficulty of the copy again, right? ?

Speaking of...

He turned his head and looked around, but he didn't see the familiar figure, so he couldn't help showing a puzzled look:

What about that one?

Su Cheng pointed to 1316 whose door was closed: Inside.

Ji Guan looked in the direction Su Cheng pointed, and after seeing the room covered with spells, he couldn't help but take a deep breath: Damn, so fierce?

He rolled up his sleeves: that's why you called me! Wen Jianyan is in danger? Let's go—

Su Cheng held Ji Guan: Wait, wait...

Next, Su Cheng briefly explained what happened before. Although his description was very concise, Ji Guan was still heartbroken: Wait, why does your book sound so difficult? What is the level?

Su Cheng was also taken aback: Did you not prompt when you came in?

Ji Guan looked blank: ...No.

Su Cheng blinked and slowly spit out two words: B-

Ji Guan: ...

After a few seconds of silence, he said in a trance: ...Huh?

what…

Which level? !

At this moment, the mechanical system sound sounded again:

[Ding, the number of people in the copy has been reached, and the content of the ID card is being distributed...]

[Member camps have been allocated]

Hearing this, Su Cheng lowered his head and opened the background of his Nightmare APP. The moment he saw the faction he was randomly assigned to, his pupils shrank.

【Congratulations on entering the Red Square camp】

[The main quest has been refreshed: make the tenth soul lock altar and completely suppress the evil spirits]

Red square? !

That is, the camp of Wen Po's side? What, how could this happen? !

Su Cheng opened the system store in a panic, but did not find any props that would allow him to switch camps.

Ji Guan, who is a supporter, is also assigned to the red team as he is.

Although he hadn't recovered from the explosive news just now, he still noticed the overly dignified look on Su Cheng's face, and subconsciously asked, What's wrong?

Su Cheng slowly raised his head: We... were assigned to the red side, not the black side.

Ji Guan didn't know much about the forces in the current dungeon, and his face showed a blank look:

Then what happened?

Su Cheng took a deep breath, raised his hand and wiped his face, gritted his teeth and said, Wen Jianyan's identity card is a believer of evil spirits.

A proper iron-blooded black square! ! !

*

On the other hand, the other anchors in the dungeon spread out cautiously to avoid getting too close to people who are not from their own faction.

The prompt that the faction battle was started sounded in everyone's ears.

They opened the Nightmare backstage one after another, quickly glanced at their new ID cards, and then finally turned their attention to the faction number map.

All the presenters were startled.

[Number of people on the red side: 23]

【Number of Blacks: 1】

If the number of people in the evil spirit camp is only one, then their previous guesses are completely wrong... In other words, there is only one evil spirit believer from beginning to end? !

After a brief stunned moment, Wang Hanyu's expression instantly darkened:

Fuck, I understand what's going on.

He looked at the other Hongfang anchors beside him, and gritted his teeth viciously: That dark fire anchor has tricked us all!

[Antai Community] In the live broadcast hall.

Good guy, this is the first time I've seen a faction book with only one person!

Hahahahahahahahahahaha now other anchors finally reacted, all members besieged, well!

But isn't that the black anchor who is finished! Under the current rules, unless he completes Black's main mission ahead of schedule, it is completely impossible to win, and even if he does complete it ahead of time, his two teammates will also They will all die here with the red team... This is simply no solution.

Woooo, don't, my dog ​​liar! I'm still waiting to see him form a scam gang!

*

While Su Cheng and Ji Guan were exchanging information with each other, there were messy footsteps at the end of the corridor not far away.

……not good!

Su Cheng's heart tightened.

The next second, a gnashing voice came from that direction: Quick! It's him! He is the only accomplice of that liar!

Su Cheng opened his backpack reflexively—no, the concealment robes are all used up!

Immediately afterwards, he was knocked down by an invisible force, and he fell heavily on the wall, his shoulder blades hit the hard wall, causing a dull dull pain.

Su Cheng clenched his teeth subconsciously, and a bloody smell floated in his mouth.

Although Ji Guan didn't know what happened to them before, he jumped out in a hurry: Wait wait! We are also the red team! Aren't we teammates!

Since there is only one black side, Wen Jianyan, the rest of the anchors should all be the red side.

They're outnumbered now, it's best to let the other party think they're the same faction first...

However, before Ji Guan had time to say anything, his body was firmly bound by some invisible rope, he was punched hard in the abdomen, and fell to the ground with a twisted expression.

Of course I know you are the red side.

Wang Hanyu shook his hand, turned around, and kicked Su Cheng's stomach hard.

Su Cheng's face wrinkled in pain, and the whole person curled up like shrimp.

Seeing this, a particularly happy smile appeared on Wang Hanyu's face: After all, there is only one person in Black, right?

He raised his foot, and ruthlessly crushed Su Cheng's phalanx with the hard sole, and the phalanx made a rattling sound under the vicious crushing.

Ah ah ah ah ah!

Su Cheng screamed and his face turned pale.

But, as former teammates, you must know where that guy is, right?

Wang Hanyu leaned down, grabbed Su Cheng's hair, and grabbed his upper body abruptly: If you tell me where he is, I will spare your life, how about that?

Ji Guan on the side noticed something was wrong.

He coughed twice while covering his stomach, and said with some difficulty to stop: Wait...you know it, right? This is a non-confrontational faction. If you want to win, you only need to complete the main quest—

Complete the main quest?

Gao Chengxin, who was beside him, suddenly spoke.

He sneered, and under the dark red light, the already fierce eyebrows looked even more terrifying at the moment: Of course, this is also a way, but under the current situation, it is a bit too far away, isn't it?

Gao Chengxin stepped forward and said unhurriedly: Even if it is a non-confrontational faction, it can be solved in the way of a confrontational faction -- if the Black team is wiped out, the Red team can also win.

After all, Black is only one person now, isn't it? It's much easier than completing the main quest.

Wang Hanyu raised his hand and shoved the back of Su Cheng's head against the wall:

Tell me, where is that liar?

……do not know.

Su Cheng gritted his teeth, and his voice was squeezed out between his teeth with difficulty.

His forehead was broken and bleeding, and the warm and viscous scarlet liquid slowly dripped down, completely sticking the eyelashes of his right eye together: We separated a long time ago.

You are loyal.

Wang Hanyu pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose: I have already talked with several other teams, the reason why that guy can turn us around is because of your help.

They are already C-level anchors, don't you understand? In the nightmare, loyalty is worthless...

Wang Hanyu let go of his hand and let the opponent's body fall softly under his feet. He opened the mall and said condescendingly:

It's okay, you'll be telling the truth soon anyway.

An anchor not far away had a hesitant expression on his face:

Wait, I don't think he's necessarily lying? After all, he's also a member of the Red Party. If we lose, he'll die too...

so what?

Wang Hanyu said: He always has to pay for playing with us.

There was a sinister smile on the corner of his mouth, and in the palm of the other hand, a dagger flashing with cold light appeared. The edge of the dagger was covered with barbs and looked extremely sharp.

He weighed the dagger in his hand, then leaned down and pressed the dagger against the opponent's side face.

The flat skin opened a little bit, and scarlet blood seeped out.

Su Cheng raised his eyes, looked at him steadily, opened and closed his lips, and spit out two short words;

The tower.

...What? Wang Hanyu was startled, frowning slightly.

Positive.

One of Su Cheng's eyes was covered with blood, and he said slowly: Destruction, destruction, and crisis is about to happen, a huge disaster is approaching, and the irreversible is coming, your everything will start to collapse from the deep, disintegrate, you All the bad things you've done will be punished by you.

Wang Hanyu: ...

His expression turned gloomy a little.

Su Cheng smiled, showing his blood-stained teeth: It's just a free divination.

damn it.

Wang Hanyu's expression was gloomy and terrifying, he suddenly raised his legs and aimed at the other's stomach again——

Squeak.

A sharp and harsh hinge friction sounded in the dead corridor, like a harbinger of doom, everyone was startled, and subconsciously turned their heads to look in the direction of the sound.

The door panel covered with countless spells slid silently inward, revealing a dark interior, like a slowly opening abyss, waiting for the appearance of the next sacrifice.

A strong bloody smell dissipated.

There was a particularly ominous aura in the room.

The anchors couldn't help but take a step back instinctively.

Gurgling...

A strange sound of water sounded in the dark room, as if something slippery and sticky was wriggling, tentacles sticking out.

The faded wooden door frame was dyed red at a speed visible to the naked eye, into an eerie texture of soft scarlet, and then the walls—

Like some kind of infectious disease, the flesh-and-blood monster protruded its tentacles from the closed door, nibbling away at wood, stone and steel—

The anchors' pupils shrank.

This... what is this?!

Quick, get ready!

Who still has a hood! Quick, exchange it!

Wang Hanyu's face turned pale. I don't know if it was because of the free divination just now.

When the others were preparing to fight, he couldn't help taking a few steps back, almost as if he wanted to turn around and run away.

Giggle.

Giggle.

The harsh sound of bone friction sounded from the depths of the darkness, several pale arms protruded from the shadows, and the sharp nails sank deep into the wall. The strange sound that was almost joyful reverberated in the corridor, almost making people scalp tingling.

No, it's too much!

What's the matter! Why are there so many monsters in this 1316?!

The anchors were shocked. They instantly recognized the difference in strength. They no longer tried to resist, but turned around and ran without hesitation: Hurry up! Hurry up!

leave here!

One of the anchors turned to look at Su Cheng and Ji Guan who fell to the ground, and couldn't bear it: What about the two of them? Bring them?

Leave them alone!

Gao Chengxin's voice was sharp and cold: There are enough people in the red square, it doesn't matter if there are two!

Giggle.

Giggle.

The pale-white monsters sprang out from the darkness, and with the sound of twisting and rubbing bones, they rushed towards the human at a speed that was almost undetectable by the naked eye!

On the walls, the speed of blood and flesh spread several times faster. Under the flickering light of dark red, the walls quickly changed their texture. They were old and dirty. The walls covered with graffiti and small advertisements were swallowed by scarlet and sticky monsters. It was like being trapped in the center of the esophagus, waiting to be digested.

Everything looked so eerie and terrifying, like a scene that would only appear in the deepest nightmares.

Su Cheng and Ji Guan looked pale.

Although the two of them had just been blocked and beaten by the group of anchors, after all, they hadn't had time to be left with any substantial damage, at least they could still run, but...

It's not a matter of running or not running anymore.

Three monsters surrounded them, the pale faces without facial features slowly approached, and a strong rancid smell came from their bodies.

Su Cheng and Ji Guan had no color on their faces, and subconsciously stepped back slowly until their backs leaned against something soft and sticky, and then they suddenly realized what was behind them.

Weak screams flowed from their throats.

Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah, how can it be so strange! ! ! !

The three monsters stepped forward a few inches again, and slowly stretched out their pale arms towards the two humans, and the soft snake-like body made a clucking sound.

Su Cheng and Ji Guan closed their eyes in despair.

...It's alright.

The youth's familiar voice sounded from a distance.

This voice...? !

Su Cheng and Ji Guan opened their eyes in horror and turned to look in the direction from which the voice came.

Giggle.

The pale monsters withdrew their arms obediently, turned around, and chased again in the direction where the few anchors disappeared.

In the darkness, a slender young man limped out.

The clothes on his body were scattered, and the rest of the fabric was basically stained red with blood, revealing the bruised and sturdy body below, from the right chest to the right shoulder, to the entire arm, all covered by pitch-black spells Covering, white, scarlet, and thick black, three extremely contrasting colors are concentrated on the same body, bringing a strong visual impact.

you……

Su Cheng and Ji Guan widened their eyes, as if their eyeballs were about to fall out of their sockets, almost unbelieving their own eyes: You, you...

Looks like you've met my new friend.

Wen Jianyan raised the corners of her pale lips that had lost too much blood, and her amber eyes narrowed slightly:

How are you, are you still having a good time together?
