Chapter 31 Harmony Cinema 4
"Ling Changye... do you know him?" Seeing him so incredible, Guo Yang was surprised and asked, "Does he know how powerful he is?"
After Guo Yang saw Ling Changye on the screen, his brain went into a state of panic.
He is a die-hard fan of the assault team. He regards every member of the assault team as his idol. His biggest wish in life is to join the assault team and become one of them.
Therefore, he would look up the information and whereabouts of the assault team almost every day. He was a combination of a traffic-seeking crazy fan and a station girl, so he knew Ling Changye, even though he was very low-key.
But he died in this game.
He is dead.
Dead.
The shock was so great, so overwhelming, that he could hardly think.
Gu Quankun gritted his teeth and said, "Of course I know him."
Who is Ling Changye?
To the outside world, he is the most low-key captain of the assault team, so low-key that some people think that the captain of the assault team is an administrative position that can be held by an ordinary person without having to play the assault game.
The Tourism Administration has four departments, two institutes and one station, among which the Operations Department is the most concerned. The original prototype of the Operations Department was the Crisis Management Department.
At that time, the game had just been discovered and strange deaths occurred one after another in the same place. In order to prevent the deaths from happening again, special investigators were hired, and then the Game Management Bureau and players who specialized in completing difficult games appeared. These players were the emergency response team.
Later, the Tourism Management Bureau became increasingly powerful, the Crisis Management Department was expanded and improved to become the Operations Department, and the original crisis management team became an assault team.
"If we block this place every time a game appears, it will be safe in the short term. However, as the number of games increases, the number of people needed will increase to a terrifying number, and the living space of humans will be compressed step by step. This is a form of escape and also a form of chronic suicide. We need a team to tackle the problem, the assault team."
These are the words of the Director of the Tourism Administration.
For those games that have not been completed by several waves of players, the members of the assault team will take over.
The assault team is the most core and most watched team in the entire Tourism Administration. They must be very powerful players, and they are indeed great. At the same time, they have special high-level powers and enjoy special care and services.
All members of the assault team have bad reputations, except for the team leader.
Many players thought that the captain was just a manager. As the biggest member of the Holy Game Guild that was against the Game Management Bureau, Gu Quankun certainly knew that it was not that simple.
They knew that Ling Changye was there every time they cleared two of the three large maps. When he was there, all the maps were cleared, and he came out alive. How could he be just an administrative staff member?
What's even more frightening is that they still haven't figured out Ling Changye's gaming identity and skills, and they can't find the correct rankings after searching through the points rankings for the past year or so.
Later they guessed that he was not on the leaderboard, and that he or the Game Management Bureau had deliberately hidden him. He rarely played the game, so his score would not be very high, so he was not on the list and was not being paid attention to. They must have some conspiracy to do this.
The Holy Tour Guild was considering Ling Changye as their most terrifying target for defense, but he actually died in the game? Died in the game he was in?
If the man No. 8 who has been hanging his head and playing with his fingers is Ling Changye, then the child who has been hunching over his head is... Erwa?
He had suspected this child before, but he didn't expect that he was really the second child.
Gu Quankun immediately turned around and saw Erwa being held in a boy's arms, staring blankly at the screen. The boy also stared blankly at the screen, looking stupid and weak, but his other white hand was pressing down on a scarlet and terrifying ghost hand.
"……?"
Guo Yang also immediately thought that child No. 9 might be the star of the attack team, and immediately looked over, "......?"
What exactly happened when he didn't know?
Who is this skinny boy who can suppress such a sharp and terrifying ghost hand?
So, are there so many players here?
So, he is the only ordinary player here?
So, what's the point of him coming out to organize everyone?
While they were confused, the ghost hand broke through Xia Bai's suppression and turned around to catch people again.
The other two people didn't have time to react, or someone just wanted to stand by and watch. Looking at the child cowering in fear, Xia Bai had no choice but to stick another corpse-suppressing talisman on him and ran with the child in his arms, "Help! Guo Yang! Gu Quankun!"
At this point, I still remembered my grandfather's teachings and told myself to point out specific people when asking for help.
The ghost hand was not as easy to deal with as the previous ghost eye. It was strong and fast, and it broke free from the suppression of the corpse-suppressing talisman at a speed even faster than the previous one. It stretched out its nails covered with mucus and attacked Xia Bai at a rapid speed.
When the nails were about to scratch Xia Bai's clothes, Xia Bai crouched down, his body incredibly flexible, and he did a sideways somersault while holding the child at a tricky angle. He supported himself on the back of the chair in front of him with one hand and jumped forward. He stepped on the two thin tops of the chair backs, jumped into the corridor and ran forward rapidly.
Xia Bai didn't expect that he would be so agile in danger. He just thought that the danger had stimulated his hidden potential, and ran towards the two people in front with an emotionless face.
The ghost hand behind him was chasing closely, almost stabbing into Xia Bai's back.
The child in Xia Bai's arms focused all his attention on him again, staring at his shaking hair and beautiful eyes in his arms, just like the wind blowing across the stars he saw in the wheat field when he was very young.
The ghost hand was much faster than Xia Bai had expected. He could already feel the cold breath spreading to the back of his neck. A black blade came towards him and pierced into the ghost hand, briefly slowing it down for a few seconds.
Xia Bai took the opportunity to say: "I know the rules of death!"
As soon as Xia Bai finished speaking, a very long brown and sticky thing flew out from Gu Quankun's hand. When it passed in front of him, Xia Bai saw the transparent bristles on it. He originally thought it was a giant python, but then he realized it was a giant earthworm.
A giant earthworm, which was tens of millions times larger than a normal earthworm, quickly grew out of Gu Quankun's hand and crashed into the ghost hand. The ghost hand's sharp nails dug into the earthworm. Gu Quankun didn't expect it to be so powerful. His face turned pale and he took a step back. When he wanted to retract it, the ghost hand had already torn off a piece of the earthworm.
Gu Quankun was in so much pain that beads of sweat immediately appeared on his face. Fortunately, the ghost hand disappeared immediately after grabbing something.
Xia Bai breathed a sigh of relief. At least ten corpse-suppressing talismans were saved.
Then, seeing the fierce look in Gu Quankun's eyes, Xia Bai's heart began to lift again.
The giant earthworm grew out of Gu Quankun's hand. To be more precise, Gu Quankun's right arm turned into a giant brown-red earthworm. After the earthworm was grabbed by the ghost hand for a while, his hand also became bloody, and the longest index finger, middle finger and ring finger were all missing a part.
Xia Bai took a half step back with the child in his arms, feeling guilty, "Thank you, thank you for saving me, big boss."
Guo Yang also took a step back, "Earthworm man?"
This person is actually one of the earthworms in the top 30 of the points ranking?
Sure enough, there is no ordinary one!
Gu Quankun glanced at the little man in Xia Bai's arms, trying hard to suppress his urge to kill Xia Bai, but his words were still full of anger, "You said you know the rules of death, tell me!"
"I need to confirm first." Xia Bai said, "Does your companion have any skills?"
There was no need for Gu Quankun to cover up for someone who was already dead, so he just said, "Yes."
Xia Bai asked: "Is his skill related to eating?"
Gu Quankun was stunned for a moment, then he looked up and looked at him seriously, "Yes, Xu Yue's skill is the physical skill Taotie, is the rule of death related to this?"
Xia Bai nodded: "I roughly know the rules of death."

Dong Chao is a fitness coach.
Being a fitness coach is a profession he likes very much. The gym he works in is one of the best in Quanguang City and is very high-end. Here he can meet many women of all kinds with good financial conditions.
In the circle around him, it is tacitly accepted that fitness trainers and members have a close relationship.
When Dong Chao first came in, he was a little restrained, but later such things happened more and more frequently, and his stimulation threshold increased.
At first, he didn't like things that were consensual, and he just liked to force those clean and cold women. Seeing them struggle hard but then become obedient and submit to him gave him a great sense of accomplishment, which stimulated his primitive desire to conquer.
Slowly, he felt more and more the deep desire for excitement in his bones, and normal things could no longer satisfy him.
Recently, Quanguang City has been in a semi-closed state, and fewer and fewer beauties come to the gym. He feels uncomfortable all over and urgently needs stimulation.
Of course, watching horror movies at night is for excitement. Of course, the movies in theaters now have to go through layers of censorship, and it is impossible for them to have the content that he wants to see the most, but horror is also a kind of excitement. In this environment, it is better than nothing.
But he didn't expect that he would be drawn into a weird game just by watching a movie.
Before he entered the cinema, he had actually sensed something weird and tense from his surroundings and the internet. Many people around him were becoming increasingly anxious and tense. He always believed that this was the reason why many people let themselves go, and he was just like that.
So, when Guo Yang told them that they were involved in a strange game, he believed it in his heart.
Having a premonition and believing it doesn't mean he panics. Panic is useless. His strong body, which can be used to threaten and force others on a normal day, is like a joke here.
The seemingly light and thin boy easily threw away the 1.9-meter-tall and 180-pound man with just a few fingers, which was completely beyond the power of an ordinary person.
Dong Chao recalled a post he had seen on the Weird Records website that was quickly deleted. The poster saw a team entering and leaving the next village late at night. Someone used his hands to suck a truck over, and several monsters that were neither human nor ghost were imprisoned in the truck.
There is indeed something wrong with this world. Without their knowledge, not only have strange games arrived, but some people have also evolved abilities beyond their cognition.
He felt extremely aggrieved, but he dared not speak, and could only simmer with anger inside.
When he saw the child, he cursed at him, but no one paid any attention to him, which made him even more ashamed and angry.
The only thing that made him feel comfortable watching this movie was that the movie in the weird game was much better than the movie he originally planned to watch, and he couldn't find a movie that suited his taste on any small website.
If he were to say, none of the movies in recent years could compare to this one. The director was so good at filming, the pictures were realistic and had an atmosphere. He seemed to be in the movie, experiencing the excitement with several actors.
The most exciting plot is when two savage islanders drag the school beauty into a damp and dark cave.
As soon as the school belle came out, he couldn't stand her aloof look. Seeing the high and mighty pure school belle being pressed into the dirty mud, his blood boiled, and the simmering fire in his chest changed its nature and burned fiercely.
When he saw the school beauty cursing and struggling, he gasped and raised his hand, wanting to slap her in the face like the people in the movie and beat her into submission.
Dong Chao could understand why the male classmate who saw the school belle not only did not save her, but also swallowed his saliva and walked in as he watched this dirty scene.
The aloof school beauty who I could only fantasize about behind her back on weekdays can now be bullied at will. This is more exciting than anything else. How could I possibly resist?
It’s just like the rich women and young ladies who he could never marry are being pinned down by him.
Those scenes reappeared in his mind, one scene after another, shocking his already boiling blood.
Watching the two people walk in, Dong Chao's legs shook more and more violently, and his hands rubbed on the armrests impatiently.
He also wanted to follow them in.
I miss you very much.
Just when his heart was burning with anger, a gentle and cold breath brushed his ears.
Dong Chao suddenly shuddered and his whole body shook.
Before he could look back, he felt a cold and soft touch on his legs. The wet school beauty in the movie supported her hands on his legs and looked up at him.
Drops of water dripped down her long, curly hair onto her neck and onto his legs.
Her lips were revealed between her long hair, perhaps purple from the cold.
This school belle was much prettier than the ones he saw on the Internet. She was cold and pure, wet, cold and sad, yet charming to the core.
Purple lips parted slightly, "Do you want to join in?"
Dong Chao's blood was boiling. This was an excitement he had never experienced before. He swallowed three times before uttering two words, "Join?"

Ma Tongfeng asked He Jiaxiu why he liked watching horror movies.
He Jiaxiu said: "Humans are small and powerless. It is false that good is rewarded with good and evil is punished with evil. However, in ghost movies, there is karma, and revenge can be taken and grievances can be repaid."
So they went to the movies for the first time in their lives and chose a horror ghost movie when they were forty-three years old.
He Jiaxiu was born in a village that was not too remote. The village was very close to the county town. The villagers lived a decent life and often talked about what their life would be like after the house was demolished. They spent most of their lives relying on this fantasy.
The tragedy of her life began when her father became paralyzed, her mother left her and her brother and ran away, and she had to drop out of junior high school to earn money to support her family. She didn't feel sad at the time because she had a worse life in school.
She used to wash dishes in a restaurant, but the money she earned was too little to support her family. She also worked in KTVs and bars, where she was often harassed and insulted.
After spending what should have been her best ten years in a chaotic environment, she married a domestic violence and gambler because she was in urgent need of money.
One night five years after their marriage, the man brought his creditor to her room.
She had resisted violently. The humiliation and pain were so sharp, but all of it was pressed into a certain place deep in her heart by the heavy dust of life.
Later, the man left her with a lot of debts and ran away.
When she was beaten and driven out of her home by her creditors, it was raining heavily. Perhaps because she looked too pitiful, a lame security guard in the community took off his clothes and shielded her from the rain for a while.
The security guard is Ma Tongfeng.
That was the first time in decades that He Jiaxiu felt the tenderness of care, and she burst into tears in the heavy rain.
Ma Tongfeng was at a loss, and both of them were caught in the heavy rain for a long time.
He accompanied her to seek legal aid, being servile and careful to smile at every turn.
She helped him with the housework and helped him up the stairs every morning after he got off work.
They lived together like this, in the one-room house he rented with no living room.
One day, he nervously told her that he wanted to marry her, to take her away from this place that had only brought them humiliation and hurt, this place that was currently tense and could not provide them with a stable future, and to go back to his hometown together, build a tiled house, and live a good life.
She agreed.
It was the day before yesterday.
Before leaving this city that had left scars on both of them, he said he wanted to go on a date with her and end their life in this city with a happy day.
That night, the warm light from the bulb fell on his nervous yet happy face. He didn't know that his face was full of wrinkles when he smiled, like a man in his fifties, and his dark yellow skin couldn't hide his blushing.
I'm in my forties and still dating.
As she thought about this, she pursed her lips, smiled, and prepared to watch a movie.
They decided to go to the movies, and finally, with the help of a neighbor's student, they chose a horror ghost movie. She likes movies with ghosts, and she can't do anything about reality. The karma that can't be seen can be seen in ghost movies.
She went to buy drinks and popcorn. She heard that these were very expensive at the cinema, and she knew there was a vegetable market where they could buy a bag of popcorn for three yuan, which they couldn't finish after watching a movie.
One of them is lame, and even working as a security guard is frowned upon, with a salary of less than 2,000 yuan a month. One of them had a hand that was broken and never fully recovered, so he only makes a little over 2,000 yuan a month working in a supermarket, and he has to go back to build a house, so of course he has to save money.
They were ready to go to the cinema for the first time in their lives.
Unexpectedly, I encountered a weird game.
He held her hand tightly while watching the movie.
She was panicking at first. Living at the bottom of society, they had already done their best to survive, so how could they have the energy to notice anything unusual? They were drawn into a terrifying game without any psychological preparation.
But later on, she became more and more immersed in the movie and forgot to be afraid.
I wish she hadn't seen that plot.
She thought that the thing that had been dulled by the pressure of life, after seeing the school beauty being bullied, broke through the dust and became clear and sharp.
The shame, resentment, pain and despair of those years boiled over and roared against her sensitive and fragile nerves.
She began to tremble and gasp for breath.
She seemed to be back in that dark room where she felt helpless and desperate, and even her tears were stained by them. She wished she could kill that beast.
When she saw the school beauty turning into a ghost to take revenge, her dried blood began to surge and she was so excited that she wanted to cry.
"Want revenge?"
"Want to kill him?"
"The people who beat you again and again, the people who never treated you as a human being, the people who wantonly harassed you, they deserve to die! Like this..."
Big tears rolled down her pale face, and she seemed to be crying and laughing at the same time.
The terrified and helpless person at that time reached out and grabbed the knife that was handed to her.

No one in this world may know exactly when the horror game will come to the earth.
The earliest case with sufficient evidence was the Qili Village Primary School incident, which was definitely caused by a strange game, although it is not known how the Tourism Administration confirmed this.
When the case of missing students at Qili Village Primary School began to ferment on the Internet, Xu Yue began to suffer from bulimia.
For some reason, he was extremely anxious during that period and could only relieve it by overeating. The more he ate, the greater his appetite became, and the greater his appetite became, the more he ate, creating a vicious cycle.
One day, his stomach seemed to burst and the pain was unbearable. He realized that he would die if he continued like this. In order to prevent himself from having problems with eating, he had to go to the hospital and rely on drugs to suppress his appetite. From then on, he lived a dull and soulless life.
Later, he was drawn into the game and thought he would die in that terrible game. In the desperate situation of being on the verge of death, he let go of everything and ate desperately and frantically, even gnawing on the monster's legs.
Unexpectedly, he burst out with strength and killed the monster.
He and Gu Quankun, who was also in the game, finished the game with great difficulty and obtained the Taotie skill.
He then realized that a strange game had come to their world and killed many people, but it did not leave them with no chance of survival. A group of people awakened special powers to fight against the strange and unknown future.
His skill is to gain strength by swallowing, and as his ability upgrades, the more he can eat, the more strength he gains.
The advent of this strange game is hell for many people and heaven for some. Xu Yue belongs to the latter.
He immediately burst into laughter while holding the monster's legs. He no longer needed drugs to suppress his empty and hyperactive appetite. He could eat to his heart's content, eat, eat, and eat without any scruples... He could also gain strength through eating. Is there anything better than this in the world?
His special ability is very useful. He and Gu Quankun, who has rich gaming experience, form a two-person team and complete three games in a row until this one.
The three games that he completed in succession gave him great confidence. After realizing that he was drawn into the game while watching a movie, he was not nervous at all. He watched the movie with great relish and consciously looked for something that could fill his stomach.
He had just finished his meal and was feeling hungry again.
He admitted that the movie was cheesy, but it had a kind of magic, perhaps because the images were realistic, or perhaps because the atmosphere was well created, which made him completely immersed in the movie and forget about the game.
When it came to eating with the savage natives on the deserted island, he found it a little unbearable.
Late at night is the time when your appetite is most easily aroused. For a person with hyperphagia, it is particularly difficult to see them eating so happily at this time.
What's more fatal is that the islanders' barbaric eating habits just fit his dietary preferences. After devouring monsters in the game, he has lost his appetite for ordinary fruits and vegetables and can only eat meat. Common meat cannot really satisfy him, so the more exotic the better.
Watching them tearing into the flesh of various animals and chewing them wantonly, Xu Yue kept swallowing his saliva. There was an unbearable emptiness in his stomach that needed to be filled urgently, filled in large quantities, and stuffed his stomach with all kinds of meat.
When Xu Yue saw that the barbaric islanders were actually eating people, he felt dizzy and covered his stomach.
He has eaten many monsters, but never a human. What do humans taste like?
He didn't realize how hot his eyes were, and saliva was flowing out of the corners of his mouth.
"Do you want to eat?"
“So many kinds of meat.”
"Here, there are fresh fingers."
