Chapter 171: Spirit Exploration Live Room

Xu Zhiyan was sitting on a small electric scooter, swaying back and forth like a small boat.

Under the dim light of the parking lot, they could vaguely see a silhouette with twisting limbs, just like the fusion monster that had come to hunt 'them' before.

Could it be that after swallowing the mixed monster, the little transparent creature evolved and split?

But before Xu Zhiyan could get confused, he discovered the direction of movement.

"This is Area A! Don't go through the exit of Area A!" he shouted, pointing in another direction.

Different from just now.

The originally white letters on the underground parking lot suddenly changed color at some point.

The blood-red letters had an eerie luster under the dim light, and some of them flowed down from time to time, making people inexplicably think of the blood and tears of a human head.

However, after Xu Zhiyan pointed out the direction, the electric scooter did not change direction, but continued to move towards area A.

Then, in the entire underground parking lot, all the cars with closed windows and doors started up as if they had been summoned.

Wu Chao was almost scared to tears.

He held on tightly to the iron handle of the back seat of the car, fearing that he would be thrown out.

He knew that it would be more stable to hold the waist of the person in front of him, but Wu Chao realized later that the young man in the front seat had just calmly held a human head to talk to him...

Help! How dare he sit up there?

Xu Zhiyan, who was sitting in the front seat, also gripped the handlebars tightly, frowned, and looked around.

He didn't know that Wu Chao was already scared to death of him in his heart. Of course, the situation was urgent now, so he wouldn't do anything even if he knew.

"Bang!"

A car with a black figure sitting inside it suddenly crashed towards the direction of the electric scooter, then passed through the body of the black figure and crashed into the body of a parked car inside.

Looking at the grooves on the car body, Xu Zhiyan was not happy at all that the vehicle passed through the small transparent body.

The smell of ashes is fading.

After turning into this state, the power that the little transparent creature gained from devouring the transparent monster is weakening.

It seems that the other party sensed the abnormality here before him, so he rushed to the exit in other directions with his electric scooter, but the rules stated that only Exit C could be used to leave...

Xu Zhiyan frowned, unsure whether the direction they were leaving in was correct.

More and more vehicles started up and kept crashing into the electric bikes in the air. Even though the small electric scooters moved very fast, the invisible little transparent ones were often hit by cars that appeared out of nowhere.

The change started with the color change of the letters on the underground parking lot sign.

Xu Zhiyan suddenly turned around and asked Wu Chao: "Which entrance did you enter from?"

"I...I entered from Exit B. The last time I left, I went out from Exit C. But when I came back this time, Exit C was being repaired and the wall was being painted, so I entered from Exit B."

Wu Chao had been frightened by the sudden change, and he told everything he knew. For every question Xu Zhiyan asked, he wished he could answer ten times.

"Oh, by the way! When I came here, I saw a note at the door saying that if you enter from Exit B, you must leave on foot..."

His voice became smaller and smaller, and finally disappeared.

This question actually found the problem.

“…”

Xu Zhiyan took a deep breath and didn't say much.

He was just wondering, this shouldn't happen. Theoretically, he was following the rules, so how could it suddenly seem like a mechanism was triggered?

It turns out that there are different rules for entering the underground parking lot from different entrances.

This car thief, who had relied entirely on luck before, is now so scared that he has completely forgotten that there are rules, let alone the desire to follow them.

Damn it, what should I do now?

The suspended electric scooter was moving quickly in the underground parking lot. Xu Zhiyan stared at Wu Chao, his mind racing.

In the live broadcast room, the audience broke into a cold sweat for him.

[Fuck, these cars are scary.]

[Ahhhh the people in there don’t have faces, ahhhhh]

[How disgusting! Although there will be a car accident scene after these cars collide, it will recover quickly.]

【It really never ends. 】

【Ahhhhhhhh Little Millionaire, run! 】

[Hiss——There are so many cars. No wonder there are so many cars in the parking lot. I was wondering why there were so many cars in this scene.]

[I think the most important thing is that these cars can recover themselves. ]

[+1 I am not afraid of a strong enemy, I am afraid of an enemy that cannot be killed. These cars can recover infinitely, so Xiao Baiwan can't run away no matter how hard he tries.]

Because they are watching a live broadcast, the audience has a wider field of vision than Xu Zhiyan and has the opportunity to find more clues.

[Ohh! I just paused while taking the screenshot and saw that the rule has changed! It has changed!]

[What? The rules will change? ]

[What the hell? I'll go back and take a look.]

[Xiao Baiwan is really a lucky guy chosen by God. Now he can't even throw passers-by into the mouth and tell them to get lost. ]

At this time, Xu Zhiyan was almost at Exit B.

What he thought and did was similar to what the comments had guessed. Since his rules were different from Wu Chao's, as long as he left the person behind, the taboo should not be triggered.

But before he reached Exit B, he noticed that there seemed to be an extra piece of paper on the corner pillar.

"Little transparent, let's go around here and come back."

Fearing that the other party would not understand, he pointed to the paper in front of him and said, "I need to see the paper on the wall."

“Bang! Bang!”

Cars keep crashing into this place.

An invisible hand passed by a pillar, tore off the rule paper that was being revised on the wall, and stuffed it into Xu Zhiyan's arms.

The moment the note was received, the game panel lit up.

[Congratulations to the player for triggering the special scene - the Void Parking Lot]

[Difficulty: A]

[Note: Wow! You are really the chosen one! The void parking lot under the abandoned cinema only appears after multiple rules are hedged. Once triggered, various strange phenomena will appear, but they may not be so friendly to humans. ]

[Mission: Leave the Void Parking Lot alive. ]

[Tip: The parking lot area signs are painted white, and must be painted white. Please protect yourself as much as possible. You can leave safely only when you see the signs turn into white fonts.]

[Reward: Exclusive advanced mobile vehicle (two-person)]

Compared to the rich content on the panel, there is only one sentence on the note.

【You can leave only after the sign spray paint turns white.】

Xu Zhiyan’s eyes went dark and he almost fainted.

At this time, Xiao Tou Ming had brought him to Exit B. Cars kept crashing into him. Wu Chao was crying and the scene was very chaotic.

After taking a walk through Exit B, Xu Zhiyan did not call for a stop.

Outside Exit B, like the first floor of the cinema, the road is blocked by a brick wall and there is a sign in front saying "No Road Allowed".

There was no way to go, and many vehicles full of non-existent passengers were rushing towards him from behind.

The exit passage is narrow and it is difficult to avoid crazy vehicles.

Smelling the increasingly faint smell of ashes, Xu Zhiyan could only direct Xiao Tomoyu to return to the parking lot first. At least there was a large area inside and it would not be easy to get hit.

“Bang! Bang!”

“Ss ...

In the parking lot, chaos was still going on.

Vehicles were constantly being smashed and scrapped, and the people inside were covered in blood, but they returned to normal in the next second.

“Squeaky, squeaky, squeaky—”

“Ding ding ding ding…”

Various vehicle alarms also sounded one after another, constantly eroding everyone's brains.

Xu Zhiyan was fine, but Wu Chao was completely confused.

"How could this happen... How did this place change... These cars, and the people in them, is this, is this, is this hell? Am I going to die, or am I already dead..."

He instinctively grabbed the edge of the seat to prevent himself from falling, but his eyes were dull and he seemed unable to accept the situation.

This was not the first time Xu Zhiyan entered a special scene. When a special scene was triggered on the Leviathan before, he had seen other NPCs being involved.

But no one is like Wu Chao in front of him, who seems to have been infected with some virus and is not in good condition.

In just a few minutes, the 19-year-old Wu Chao looked twice as old as before. His skin began to sag, making people think of the person on the screen in Screening Room No. 1.

Listening to the other person's mumbling, Xu Zhiyan turned around and shouted, "You are not dead, you are still alive, but we have to find a way to get out."

Wu Chao opened his mouth with saliva flowing out, looking completely idiotic.

"Wow, wow, wow, I can't see my hands anymore..." He kept saying these discouraging words in a terrified tone.

Xu Zhiyan was stunned and quickly looked at the other person's hand.

It's okay, just the skin is a little wrinkled.

It wasn't like Wu Chao said, that he disappeared or something.

But the other party's current state is very strange, no one can guarantee whether he will turn into a strange monster next...

Instead of blaming the other party, Xu Zhiyan vaguely grasped some patterns.

Although Wu Chao violated the rules and triggered a special scene when he got on the electric car, there was nothing wrong with his mental state. He only became so strange after seeing these incomprehensible things later.

Transparency? Will you become transparent if you break the rules?

So, could it be that the countless invisible people in this city became like this because they accidentally violated certain rules?

In the live broadcast room, some people began to dislike Wu Chao for being a drag, but many people also began to speculate on the inside story of the city based on Wu Chao's reaction.

[Ah——Xiao Baiwan, can you please throw away this piece of junk on the car seat? ]

[This guy is a bit pitiful. He said he was going to die, but his hands didn't loosen. He probably didn't want to die.]

[So can we now conclude that these invisible people are the fate of ordinary residents who violated the rules? ]

[There is a probability, but it is not certain. His skin has become wrinkled, not really transparent.]

[Will he be caught and put into a movie in the end? I remember that bloody and lousy movie just aired, and the actors in it were all in this state at the end, all wrinkled.]

Xu Zhiyan was also very curious, but time was running out.

He thought of the note on the bathroom door. The last person who left repeated it three times: "Remember this is an abandoned cinema." The other party emphasized the abandoned cinema so much, so he must have encountered something that subverted his cognition.

Subvert your cognition...

The Wu Dynasty’s cognition is also being overturned.

As if he had thought of something, Xu Zhiyan grasped the handle with one hand, turned around and slapped the dazed Wu Chao with his backhand. Although it was loud, it was nothing compared to the chaotic noise in the underground parking lot.

“Pah—”

"Can you still understand me?"

He stared into Wu Chao's eyes and spoke in a very firm tone.

"This is an underground parking lot, not hell. You're still alive and your hand is still there. Don't worry, we'll be out soon."

Now that things have come to this, he needs to test it.

By injecting firm belief, can the NPC that is becoming weird recover?

Pain stimulation plus language stimulation.

After Wu Chao heard this, his eyes gradually became clearer.

Seeing that the car thief wanted to say something, Xu Zhiyan shouted, "Close your eyes, we are about to get to Exit C."

In addition to telling Wu Chao, he also had to tell Xiao Mingtou that he was going to exit C.

Sure enough, the electric bike under me stopped for a moment.

"Bang!"

“Bang!”

At this moment of pause, several more cars crashed into the car, making loud collision noises.

Xu Zhiyan knew that Xiao Tou Ming must have sensed that he couldn't leave from the exit of Area C, so he paused, but he had other plans.

"It's okay. We won't leave now. We'll just take a walk around the entrance of Area C..."

After hearing this, Xiao Tou Ming hesitated for a moment, but time waits for no one, and its not-so-high IQ made it choose to obey Xu Zhiyan's command.

In the live broadcast room, some viewers didn’t understand why Xu Zhiyan did this.

[Don't go to Exit C. Aren't these exits closed? ]

[I think we should all find a vent and hang it there until the red words change color.]

[It’s so funny, it’s a ring, right? ]

[The vent is a bit difficult. I just looked around and there is no vent here. But the transparent monster is very hesitant. Exit C is indeed not an option. ]

[While this monster still has strength, I think I should open the car door, that is, open all the car doors, so that the car will not move. ]

[This is too difficult. If you make a mistake once, you will be killed. But it seems that this is the only way. ]

[Eh——Fuck, what is Xiao Baiwan doing? ]

Looking at the vehicles moving backwards on both sides, Xu Zhiyan calmed down.

Although he was not trapped for too long, the high-frequency attacks around him seemed to be constantly consuming Xiao Touzi's strength.

Based on his current understanding of the little transparent creature, although the other party swallowed the mixed transparent monster, this swallowing seemed to be unable to be used for no reason. It should be used under certain conditions, otherwise the other party could have eaten up the "them" that was mistakenly caught.

A lot of power was consumed, and the height of the electric car had dropped a lot. It was no longer moved by the huge body of the fusion monster as before.

Must leave quickly!

When they arrived near Exit C which was under renovation, Xu Zhiyan stood up shakily by the handlebars and gave instructions to the unknown person.

"A little to the right, a little higher!"

This time, the electric car was lifted to a high place on the right without hesitation.

The mobile transparent object didn't know why it did this, but since Xu Zhiyan asked it to, it did it.

The young man raised his slender arms high, and when he passed the scaffolding on the wall under repair at Exit C, he reached out and grabbed a bucket of white paint from it.

"Come on! Let's go back and change the color of the words on the wall!"

Xu Zhiyan said viciously while holding the paint bucket.

When the special scene is triggered, the rules have changed. The words on the wall are all red. I don’t know when I will be able to change back to red. The cars here have unlimited lifespans...

He didn't think that passively waiting was a good choice.

Although opening the car doors should be able to successfully stop the cars from moving, the parking lot is packed with cars, and it is too difficult to open all the doors.

Instead of cracking the levels, crack the rules.

Holding the bucket, Xu Zhiyan looked at Wu Chao who had his eyes closed, and in desperation, slapped him again.

“Bang!”

"Listen, when you pass by the pipe, grab it and don't fall down. If you fall down, you will die."

He will have to cover up the words on the wall later, and will need the protection of Little Tone, so he won't have time to deal with the car thief.

“Eh? What—Ah!!”

Before Wu Chao could react and opened his eyes, a group of invisible hands lifted him up and pushed him to the pipes near the parking lot.

Feeling the hands retreating, Wu Chao subconsciously hugged the pipe tightly.

It was too late for him to cry. His mind was in a mess. He only remembered what Xu Zhiyan said at the end, that he would die if he didn't catch him.

On the other hand, Xu Zhiyan no longer cared about Wu Chao.

"The car is lost, let's change the color of the area coordinates!" he said to Xiao Tou Meng.

There are four area coordinates in the underground parking lot, and each of them is red now, which means he has to change the color of four letters before he can complete the rule modification.

Glancing at the brush in the paint bucket, Xu Zhiyan took a deep breath and said, "Start with area C."

The zoning here is divided into four areas, ABCD, in a clockwise direction. If the rewrite starts from area C, the rewrite will be completed by the time it reaches area B. The Wu Dynasty will be suspended above area B, and the people will be taken away directly after the rewrite is completed.

The electric bike was thrown away, and Xu Zhiyan could feel that he was stepping on a pile of soft, rotten, transparent flesh, and occasionally he could step on a few arms.

As he hesitated, two strong, cold, transparent arms hugged him from behind and lifted him up on the shoulders.

The two came to the pillar with letters on it in Area C.

The brush was dipped in white paint and was quickly writing and drawing on the wall.

Xu Zhiyan held the bucket in one hand and the brush in the other, and he acted quickly, accurately and ruthlessly, covering the red C that looked like it was bleeding in a few strokes.

A vehicle was coming towards him.

Perhaps because the height was just right, a small truck actually rushed here.

After Xu Zhiyan finished writing, he didn't even turn around to look.

"Bang--"

The vehicle crashed into an invisible wall of flesh.

"Quick, next location!"

Along with his urging, the small truck whose front end had just been hit and shattered began to recover slowly.

…

The little transparent person was resisting the attack, while Xu Zhiyan was responsible for using paint to modify the handwriting. The division of labor was clear.

Soon, the last area was written.

The moment the letter B was covered, the entire parking lot instantly returned to its original state.

"Bang-ah my ass!"

Wu Chao also fell off the pipe he was holding due to exhaustion.

Xu Zhiyan breathed a sigh of relief.

When he was put on the ground by Xiao Tou Ming, his legs went limp.

Xu Zhiyan sniffed and smelled the faint scent of ash in the air, his tone full of regret.

"Have your powers diminished?"

Because he couldn't see, he could only reach out and touch the little transparent person's chin. Feeling the other person nod, Xu Zhiyan felt even more uncomfortable.

Damn it, I finally got this obedient little brother, who swallowed a monster by accident and got a level up. But now I barely even have time to warm up to the power before it’s all used up!

After finding the electric bike thrown aside, Xu Zhiyan took out the head he had just forgotten and found Wu Chao.

"When you go to the police station to turn yourself in for the stolen car, remember to bring it with you. Maybe you can get leniency..."

With the car thief, he doesn't have to go to the police station again.

But considering the possible bonus, Xu Zhiyan gave his contact information to Wu Chao and asked him to call him if there was any bonus so that he could claim it.

Before leaving, he shook the videotape in his hand.

Wu Chao was frightened by this silent warning, and dared not say no with a head in his hands.

After dealing with these troubles, Xu Zhiyan watched Wu Chao run away, put away the stern face he had just put on to scare people, and walked towards Exit B.

[Congratulations to the player for triggering the special scene - the Void Parking Lot]

[Reward: Exclusive advanced mobile vehicle (two-person)]

Exclusive advanced mobile vehicle?

That sounds amazing!

The rewards from the special scenes diluted the sadness Xu Zhiyan felt for consuming the power of the little transparent one.

After leaving the parking lot, time and space returned to normal.

Xu Zhiyan didn’t have time to check what was happening in his ghost-hunting live broadcast room, and quickly clicked to receive the reward.

The next second, a small pink electric scooter slowly drove out from the parking lot behind him. The body of the car was shiny and looked like a new car.

Xu Zhiyan froze in place, a look of disappointment in his eyes.

"That's it? There are so many four-wheeled vehicles in here and you only give me a two-wheeled one? Is that reasonable? If I had known, I would have let you pry open a vehicle and drive it away..."

However, his disdainful look changed the moment his fingers touched the pink electric car.

[Name: Xu Zhiyan's exclusive vehicle (electric car - pink)]

[Level: A]

[Type: Vehicle]

[Introduction: Props dropped in parking lot related scenes, no need to refuel or charge, daily speed can reach 100KM/h. ]

[Notes: When driving at night, the speed is doubled. ]

[Mental Threshold Limit: None]

[Special restrictions: Exclusive to player Xu Zhiyan]

In the live broadcast room, the audience who were laughing so hard when they saw the electric car just now felt like they were being strangled by the neck.

[…This vehicle is so fast. ]

[The main thing is that the Night Double BUFF and no consumption, this can be comparable to an S-level vehicle, right? ]

[Who is envious of me? I don’t say anything. S-class vehicles are all things that burn points. Although they are faster than this, they really hurt your wallet to use! ]

[Fuck, I wonder if Xiao Baiwan will sell it. This kind of non-consumable vehicle is really in great demand! ! ]

In the center of the screen, Xu Zhiyan had obviously thought of this as well.

Instead of putting away the vehicle, he sat on it with a smile, took out two helmets from the frame and threw one to the unknown person.

"Come on, Mr. Xu got a new car today, let me take you for a ride."

After saying that, he opened the live broadcast room on his mobile phone.

As expected, everything returned to normal. His live broadcast room was very popular and there was no interruption in the messages.

It turned out that after ten o'clock, when he entered the strange cinema space, what the audience in the ghost-hunting live broadcast room saw was different from what he saw, and the system would rearrange his picture.

So in the eyes of the audience, he is indeed constantly exploring, and he is exploring content that the audience likes, thus maintaining his popularity.

Xu Zhiyan casually switched into Feng Yanyan's live broadcast room and discovered something unusual.

The other party had obviously entered the abandoned mental hospital, but the player in the picture did not keep moving like his live broadcast room. Instead, the field of view of the mobile phone was fixed on a certain scene, and his popularity was greatly lost.

"So that's how it is."

Xu Zhiyan immediately figured out the key points.

If the players successfully find the rules and crack them after entering the weird time, then there will be no problem with the content in the live broadcast room and the audience will be able to see a normal live broadcast.

But if players don’t find the correct rules, the live broadcast perspective will switch, resulting in a drop in popularity.

But since the live broadcast is still on, Feng Yanyan should not be dead, but just encountered difficulties.

Xu Zhiyan jumped to a few live broadcast rooms and suddenly found a player who had not yet reached the ghost-hunting location. Because he had no money to take a taxi, he could only walk on his own two legs.

He tried his account and found that after completing a spirit search, he could leave a message.

Xu Zhiyan immediately ran to the other party’s live broadcast room, clicked on the host’s avatar to initiate a private chat, and typed a line of words.

[Friend, do you want to take the bus? 10,000 points for a round trip. ]
