Chapter 303 The ghosts in this room are the noisiest
Jian Yue and Li Lele looked at each other.
They all saw a bit of despair in each other's eyes. It seems that this five-star building is really not simple.
Jian Yue said: "If you go down through the mirrored glass here, I don't think the chances of you surviving are very high."
Li Lele was still a bit naive. He said with a little hope: "The probability is not high?"
"Basically zero." Jian Yue said.
Li Lele: “…”
There was silence.
"The fire outside was coming over here." Li Lele said, "I felt the door was deformed."
Anything that has been burned in a fire will easily deform. Obviously, since the door outside has deformed, it means that the fire outside is getting bigger and bigger.
Li Lele immediately went to the bathroom and turned on all the taps. He pressed the mouth of the water raft and the water poured out. Then he dragged all the quilts in the room under the water and said, "Maybe this will help us hold out for a while."
Jian Yue didn't move. During the time that Li Lele was busy, he had been observing the room, looking at the walls, then at the cabinets. In short, he was looking for something to do when he was free, as if he was here for a trip.
There were mottled black burn marks on the wall. He wiped it with his hand, and after wiping off the black ash, he saw bright red bloodstains on the wall. Forensic doctors always habitually survey the environment and try their best to search for clues at the scene.
Bloodstains.
Jian Yue continued to look. He took out a small knife from his pocket and continued to use the knife to lift the dust on the wall. After a while, he saw that the bottom of the wall was covered with bloodstains and splattered blood.
Not far away, Li Lele said, "Housekeeper Wang, aren't you hot? Come to the bathroom quickly. There's water here, and it's about to get hot over there!"
Jian Yue put away the knife and said, "It's useless. You may have forgotten one thing. In fact, not all people in fires are burned to death. A large number of them are suffocated. Fire can suffocate people when it burns. Although you can delay for a while by staying in the bathroom, the whole floor is burning. You are trapped inside and cannot leave. Then this place will only become your burial place."
Li Lele was stunned after hearing this. He turned around in surprise and saw that the bathroom behind him had no windows. So the people on this floor must have subconsciously run to the bathroom after the fire broke in, and then...
Looking back like this.
Li Lele became even more frozen because the person in the mirror moved. He stood there without moving, but the person in the mirror moved. Blood flowed out of the faucet, and the person who slowly crawled out was a young child.
The child was covered in black, and the whole room seemed to be filled with the child's low cries.
"Mom..." the child's voice murmured, "Mom, where are you?"
The temperature inside the room was extremely high, and real fire started where the child crawled! Although the blood in the bathroom could not temporarily ignite the fire, the outside could be burned!
Jian Yue and Li Lele's safety values began to drop sharply the moment this child appeared.
The system's voice said in red: "The current safety value is 15%, the current safety value is 10%! Please note that when the safety value is lower than 1%, you may be eliminated from the dungeon. Please increase the safety value immediately!!"
"Mom, is that you, Mom?" The dark-skinned child crawled towards Li Lele who was nearest to him.
Li Lele was completely terrified. After all, who wouldn't be scared when a monster that would catch fire and burn everything rushes towards you? He subconsciously stepped back: "I'm not, I'm not your mother, don't come over here!"
He subconsciously ran backwards, but the child ran faster and faster.
That’s not all.
When he ran, there were actually children crawling out of the mirror. Not just one! There were two or three!
Those kids were muttering different words, and flames started to burn wherever they crawled. They quickly crawled outside and ran straight towards people without paying any attention to Li Lele's shouts. Anyone who was entangled by them would definitely catch fire and be eliminated on the spot!
Li Lele shouted: "Butler Wang, help!"
The audience in the live broadcast room were also somewhat excited:
"This really doesn't give people any time to react!"
"The key is that neither of them has attacking cards!"
"The system's incredible matching mechanism!"
"So now they can only wait to die?"
Just when Li Lele was feeling a little desperate, suddenly——
Then Jian Yue coughed lightly, and his tone was calm and a little majestic: "Let me see which class is making noise?"
As soon as the words were spoken, the room suddenly became eerily quiet.
Li Lele:?
no?
He just begged these little devils to stop chasing him, but no one listened to him. What's going on now? !
Next second.
Jian Yue said: "In the entire corridor, your room is the noisiest. It's simply the worst class I've ever encountered!"
Li Lele:?
Audience:?
Ghosts on the ground:?
However, this method was surprisingly effective. These little ghosts covered in fire stopped shouting and crawling around, but the thick black aura on their bodies became thicker and thicker.
The system panel refreshed at this moment: "
Trigger the limited-time mission: [The lost child in the room]"
Mission details: Please help the children find their mothers.
Mission Reward: Travel Manual
Mission time limit: 1 hour"
The time was so short that it didn't leave people much opportunity at all.
Li Lele was a little desperate when he saw this task, because no one knew better than him how difficult these kids were. How could they possibly cooperate in answering questions? !
But the next second.
Then Jian Yue pushed up his glasses and said, "I need to find your parents. Come on, tell me their phone number."
Li Lele: “…”
The child who could call "Mom" must be able to speak and have a normal IQ. Just when Jian Yue was shocked, one of the little black balls began to recite in a somewhat intermittent voice: "0, 9..."
Jian Yue said to Li Lele, "Bring me some paper and pen."
There was paper and pen next to the cabinet in the room. Although Li Lele complained in his heart, he still hurried to find paper and pen.
The child spoke very slowly, and Jian Yue did not rush him. He just stood quietly beside him and remembered all this. Then he said, "I'm going to call your mother now, but before that, you have to tell me why you and your mother were separated, so that I can ask her to come over."
The three children seemed to be stuck suddenly.
Jian Yue's voice became a little stern: "You don't listen to the teacher? If you don't speak honestly, you won't get a red flower today."
Li Lele thought to herself, how can you do this? Who would want a red flower?
result.
The next second, the child cried and said, "I want a little red flower, I say!"
Li Lele: “…”
Jian Yue said: "Okay, tell us one by one, don't be anxious, just tell us."
The child choked up and said, "There are a lot of bad guys at home. Dad was arrested. Mom said she would take us out to play. There are a lot of uncles and aunts here. Mom said there are bad guys and told us not to come out. She will be back soon..."
Jian Yue grasped the key point: "Bad guy?"
The child nodded and said, "Big bad guy!"
Jian Yue said: "Have you ever seen a bad guy?"
The child shook his head and said, "No, but my mother and aunt said that there are... there are big bad guys."
Li Lele quickly asked: "Where is your aunt?"
The child pointed to the next room: "Auntie..."
Jian Yue and Li Lele looked at each other, and Jian Yue said, "Wait here, go back to the bathroom and hide, the teacher will go find your mother for you."
The children hesitated, and Jian Yue said, "Don't you want to listen to the teacher?"
The children went back quickly.
Li Lele was stunned. He asked, "How can he be so obedient?"
Jian Yue said: "They have a purpose, and that is to find my mother. If you agree to their request, they will naturally not kill you. The ghosts in the dungeon world have rules for killing people. If the rules are not triggered, they will not kill people unconditionally."
Li Lele looked at the burnt and deformed door outside and said, "Are we really going to go out? Won't we die?"
Jian Yue said: "Since you promised, you must do it. This is not the first day you have known me."
Li Lele looked at Jian Yue and suddenly recalled that he first met Jian Yue in the Puppet Man's copy. At that time, they cooperated for the first time to heal the crew member who was locked in the warehouse under the bed. The crew member's mother died, and he always wanted to save his mother, so he stole the book and later became stupid.
Jian Yue promised the crew member that he would help him find his mother, and only then did the crew member tell them the clues.
Li Lele thought that this was Jian Yue's delaying tactic at the time, but he never expected that after Jian Yue arrived at the island, he searched among the countless puppets on the island and on the ship one by one, and finally found the puppet of the crew member's mother, and then returned to the ship personally and handed it to the little crew member.
Such behavior.
A seed was planted in Li Lele's heart when he just entered the nightmare world.
NPCs are not data that can be fooled or deceived at will. They are also human beings, not machines. You have to do what you promised them. This is why Li Lele has stayed in the Moon Realm even though many people want to recruit him despite having a gold card. He likes places with human touch, which makes him feel that he is still alive, not a walking corpse.
Jian Yue said: "If you are scared, you can stay here."
Li Lele immediately said: "I'll go with you."
Jian Yue directly picked up the blood-soaked bed sheet from the bathroom and wrapped it around himself, then said to Li Lele, "Let's go."
Li Lele also wrapped herself up. The moment the two of them went out, the heat wave outside hit them in the face, almost suffocating them. Jian Yue kicked open the door next door.
During the day, every room is empty, but at this moment the lights are on.
There is no one in the house.
The bathroom door was closed, and the sound of water splashing could be heard from inside.
Before Li Lele had time to open the bathroom door, the phone in the room rang instantly. The sound made both of them pause because they had not received any calls since they entered the building.
Jian Yue said: "I'll go pick it up."
He walked over and picked up the phone without hesitation.
A mechanical voice came from the other end of the phone, very clearly: "The 15-day period has come, and we must change floors. Bring your people to change floors immediately, otherwise..."
The voice broke off in the middle of the sentence.
Jian Yue frowned, and Li Lele ran over and said, "Why is there no sound? Do you want to call back?"
The phone was hung up.
Jian Yue looked to the side, then quietly put down the phone and said, "No, this phone line is not connected, you can't call back."
Li Lele's voice suddenly froze.
despair.
There was a fire burning outside not far away. Jian Yue said, "Did you check the bathroom? Did you find anyone?"
Li Lele's face turned pale. He nodded and said, "I found it, but..."
Jian Yue picked up his words and said, "They are all dead, right?"
Li Lele nodded and said, "They are both dead."
Jian Yue turned around and walked towards the bathroom. When he came over, he saw two black bodies on the ground. He then said to Li Lele, "Ruling out the possibility of homicide, these two people were trapped in the bathroom and burned to death."
Li Lele said: "Since she is here, why doesn't she go back to look after the child?"
Jian Yue looked towards the cabinet not far away. He walked over, opened the cabinet, and saw a booklet placed on the cabinet. He opened the booklet and flipped through the contents.
This is a travel brochure.
The manual was filled with superimposed black and red handwriting, which was even a little shocking at first glance. What I wrote on it was very clear.
[Five-star survival building, after entering the building, challengers need to survive in the building for more than fifteen days. Please find a way to leave the building within fifteen days, otherwise the building will force open the intercommunication button of all floors! ]
After reading it, Jian Yue frowned slightly and handed the manual to Li Lele.
After reading it, Li Lele said, "What does this mean? If the intercommunication buttons of all floors are turned on after fifteen days, shouldn't it be easier to escape? Why are all these people hiding in the house?"
Jian Yue said, "Perhaps it's because there is something more terrifying in this building than escaping and finding a way out, so the people here would rather hide in the house and wait for death than go out. And did you notice that the child said that their father left and their mother brought them here to make a living. In other words, the building must have offered generous rewards to challengers, so they came here."
Li Lele was silent: "Why does such a crazy building still exist?"
Jian Yue put the manual away and said, "The composition of the nightmare world copy must have its reasons. This building is the nightmare of this copyist. We are here to solve this nightmare. Instead of worrying about these, we should care about more important things."
Li Lele unconsciously became serious and asked, "What?"
Jian Yue looked at him seriously. Under Li Lele's gaze, he wiped the sweat from his head and said, "It's too hot. If we don't leave now, the sheets will be dried out. Let's run!"
Li Lele: “…”
Jian Yue walked directly to the door and opened it. He rushed back to the next room and said to the three children in the bathroom, "Go ahead. Your mother is waiting for you. Just go over there."
The three children seemed afraid of what was outside the door.
Jian Yue simply picked him up, and Li Lele said in shock: "Butler Wang, fire!"
The fire would burn people. Jian Yue couldn't hold three children by himself. He looked at Li Lele. Li Lele gritted his teeth and picked up the last child. The two of them went to the next room and put the child next to the mother.
The children stopped crying and just looked at Jian Yue. When they approached their mother, the dark shadow of their mother, who had been unresponsive, seemed to move. The woman raised her head and looked at Jian Yue and the other person.
Fire also broke out on Jian Yue and Li Lele's bodies.
In the fire, Jian Yue saw her mother's shadow pointing at the mirror. The fire was very hot, and in the direction she pointed, Jian Yue took out a knife from her back despite the pain and smashed it at the mirror! !
"Bang!"
There was a loud noise and the mirror shattered into pieces.
Almost instantaneous.
Jian Yue and Li Lele, who were immersed in the reflection in the mirror, woke up.
When the two opened their eyes, they were still standing outside the bathroom. It was still bright outside. If it weren't for the fact that their clothes had some holes burned on them, one would have thought it was just a dream.
Li Lele came back to his senses from the illusion. He gasped and said, "What happened just now?"
"I went to the world inside the mirror." Jian Yue said, "This mirror will repeat what happened on this floor last time. You can only get out if you break the mirror."
Li Lele asked: "Were we just hallucinating?"
Jian Yue said: "I guess so."
Li Lele wiped the sweat off his head and said, "Then didn't we enter the illusion for nothing?"
Jian Yue said thoughtfully: "That's not the case."
Li Lele looked at him curiously.
Jian Yue took out a travel brochure from his pocket, flipped to the back of the brochure and said, "Here is a map of this floor. In addition to an emergency passage, there is also an exit hidden in the mezzanine."
Li Lele followed him to look, and sure enough, there was an elevator hidden in a very hidden place on the stairs!
Look at the sky outside.
Jian Yue said directly: "Let's go."
They went straight out from here and found a hidden elevator according to the instructions in the travel guide. The light in this elevator was on, and the floor they were on was also displayed on the elevator door: it was the 143rd floor.
Jian Yue pressed the button to open the door, and the elevator began to rise. Li Lele said happily, "We've found the elevator. If we enter the elevator and choose the first floor, won't we be able to get out directly?"
As the elevator got closer to the 143rd floor, both men's gazes became more focused.
Ding Dong
With a crisp sound, the elevator stopped on the 143rd floor.
The next second, the elevator door opened, and about five or six people appeared inside. They were also stunned when they saw Jian Yue and the other person. The only difference between them and Jian Yue and the other person was that these people were pale and thin, and it seemed as if their eyes were glowing green.
"Is there any water?" The leader asked softly, "Is there any water on this floor?"
Li Lele nodded gently and said, "Yes."
As soon as these words fell, everyone in the elevator seemed to become very excited!
“There’s water!”
"There's water on this floor!"
"Great! We are saved!"
“There’s water here!”
Jian Yue realized that there was not water on every floor. It could even be said that some floors might not even have food. This was not good news.
"Let's go, sister." The boy behind said, "Let's go down this floor. We haven't had water for a long time. I'm so thirsty..."
The girl in the lead was about to get off the elevator.
Jian Yue continued, "Sometimes the more you drink the water on this floor, the more thirsty you become. Also, it seems that there was a fire on this floor. If you come in, it will be very dangerous here."
The girl in the lead said to Jian Yue, "No matter how scary it is, it can't be as scary as our floor. Not only is there no water or food on our floor, but there is also no light at all. We can't see anything. Staying there is worse than death."
Jian Yue and Li Lele were both silent. It seemed that there were different tortures on every floor here.
Li Lele said: "Then why don't you go to the first floor, but come to our floor instead?"
The girl said, "This elevator does not allow you to choose the floor you want to take. People who find the elevator and enter will be randomly sent to a floor every day. That is to say, if you are lucky, you may be able to go to a floor with food and water. If you are unlucky..."
No more words were said.
Jian Yue and Li Lele both knew that if they were unlucky, they might be able to hide on this floor for a few days, but if they were teleported to another more hopeless floor, they might die faster.
The girl wanted to say something, but the boy behind her couldn’t wait any longer. He looked very young and said, “Sister, I’m so thirsty and hungry… I can’t make it to tomorrow…”
A few people stopped listening to Jian Yue and went straight down the elevator to the guest rooms outside. The room here was very clean and brightly lit during the day. It was definitely much better than the dark and empty floor they were on before, so they didn't hesitate at all.
Li Lele wanted to stop them: "Hey you guys..."
Jian Yue said: "Forget it, let's go."
Li Lele has a kind personality and sometimes seems indecisive, but after Jian Yue entered the elevator, he followed her in. After the two of them entered the elevator, they found that there was only a button to close the door and nothing else.
"Want to take a gamble?" Jian Yue said.
Li Lele took a deep breath and said, "We don't know where Mengmeng and Tiantian are now. We must find them. Mengmeng gave me a talisman. This talisman will glow when it is close to her position, which means she is alive. We must go. And don't you, Wang, also want to pass the level to get the Heart of Truth? Let's take a gamble. Maybe we can reach the first floor, or even a floor with a full banquet?"
Jian Yue smiled and said, "Let's take a gamble."
He pressed the button to close the door.
The elevator door closed. The moment it closed, countless numbers began to flash across the screen and finally stopped at 99. And for some reason, all the other numbers were white, only the floor number for the 99th floor was blood red.
"bite"
The crisp sound of the elevator came down, and the next second, the elevator door opened.
When the scene outside the elevator appeared in front of Jian Yue and the others, they both fell silent. They saw broken walls and even fallen flesh and body parts outside the elevator. The walls were covered in blood, which spread out from the elevator corridor.
Li Lele was silent for a moment and then said, "Why do I feel like something is wrong with this level?"
Jian Yue said: "Maybe we should stay here and wait for the random number change tomorrow."
Li Lele was about to nod.
Suddenly, a shrill scream was heard not far away.
The next second, the talisman paper in Li Lele's hand lit up, and the talisman paper emitted light and flew outside. Jian Yue and Li Lele looked at each other. Li Meng and the others were on this floor.
Jian Yue said: "It seems that we have to go out now."
