This time the noise was not as loud as the previous times, but very slight. If Ruan Jiyan was not a full-time water player, he might not have heard anything at all.
A biting coldness suddenly spread throughout Ruan Jiyan's body, bringing with it an ignorant fear.
"Wait a moment." Ruan Jiyan said to Li Mingyue in a low voice.
"What's wrong?" Ruan Jiyan suddenly interrupted her, then spoke to her carefully in a low voice, and she also became nervous.
[What's wrong? What did our newbie find?]
[Still calling her Xiao Mengxin, I'm going to change my words and call her sister.]
[I hope she was just frightened. I also said that I really wanted them to come back safely, which means that the copy after the bug occurred is not unsolvable by death.]
[You’re right, I hope so too!]
After that slight movement, there was no sound for a moment. Then a few minutes later, the sound started again, like a broadcast that was about to start.
I was walking alone on a path in the suburbs...
The fog was so thick that I couldn't see the direction...
The lyrics have changed. Before I couldn't see the moon, now I can't see the direction.
Not sure what this was hinting at, but the two girls sat up from the bed, their faces filled with tension.
The sound became louder and louder, and the footsteps gradually moved up from the first floor and got closer and closer.
Then there were the sounds of a little girl running, accompanied by giggles.
Ruan Jiyan called out the system: [I want to redeem the props, hurry up. ]
[The system store has been opened for the host to choose from. ]
Ruan Jiyan used 100 life points to exchange for a protective shield, an attack power-enhancing spell and a bottle of healing potion.
[When the player's health points are less than 60, their mental strength will be continuously polluted. When the health points are less than 50, the damage from attacks will be greatly increased. Do you want to continue redeeming? ]
[Exchange.] Ruan Jiyan did not hesitate at all. She exchanged 100 life points, which left her with 74. The item she exchanged could at least protect her from some damage, otherwise she would not have exchanged it.
She had 174 life points in her body, and she could just redeem 100 points, the system kindly reminded her.
Then, a talisman and a bottle of potion emitting green light appeared in Ruan Jiyan's hand.
[The shield will automatically open when the player takes damage. ]
The prompt tone and the knock on the door rang at the same time. Li Mingyue trembled in fear and grasped a long dagger in her hand. Ruan Jiyan became alert instantly.
Although this copy no longer has any missions, the number of deaths has not decreased at all, and danger always comes quietly.
She had a feeling that something was going to happen this time.
There was a sudden loud bang outside the door. Ruan Jiyan quickly got up and opened the door. After opening the door a crack, he saw the little girl giggling.
It's Little Red Riding Hood!
Ruan Jiyan frowned, very puzzled.
Little Red Riding Hood disappeared inexplicably when they went to her house. She didn't even go with them to her grandmother's house. Why is she here now?
She is still the girl who has been making eerie laughs in the Werewolf Castle, which means she is in cahoots with the werewolves.
Or...she is a werewolf!
[Ding——A werewolf has been detected. Players can do whatever they can to fight the werewolf until it disappears. After completing the task, players will leave the "Horror Werewolf Killing" dungeon. I wish all players good luck. ]
The system task reminder sounded, completely waking Ruan Jiyan up. It turned out that the reason they had no tasks here later was not because there was a bug in the game, but because they had not killed the werewolf yet, so they could not leave the game.
The task of destroying the werewolf is much simpler than destroying Zhang Jing who has turned into a fierce ghost. After all, this copy is just a novice copy.
But there is no guarantee that the difficulty will become higher due to the emergence of unknown bugs.
Bang—bang—
Two more dull noises brought Ruan Jiyan back to her senses. She had just opened the door and saw Little Red Riding Hood seemed to be knocking on Yin An and the others' door.
The final mission of the dungeon appeared. As long as they killed the werewolf, they could leave the dungeon. Choosing to protect themselves now would only delay their death.
Only by taking the initiative can we have a chance of survival. After all, Zhang Jing was killed, so there is always a way to kill Little Red Riding Hood.
After Li Mingyue gave herself some psychological comfort, she stood up and followed Ruan Jiyan and asked her, "What should we do?"
"Let's rescue Yin An and the others, and then work together to kill Little Red Riding Hood." Ruan Ji Yan said to her in a low voice.
"Little Red Riding Hood, why do we have to kill Little Red Riding Hood? Shouldn't we kill the werewolf?" Isn't Little Red Riding Hood the NPC who assigned them the task? Why do we have to kill her?
"Because she is most likely a werewolf." Or maybe Little Red Riding Hood...is long gone, and the werewolf is now dressed like her.
"Little brother, open the door and play a game with me. Hehehehe..." Little Red Riding Hood outside the corridor was still pretending to be a little white rabbit.
The two boys hiding in the room were so nervous that they were afraid that the little girl outside the door would break in at the next second.
Little Red Riding Hood was in high spirits, saying some pernicious words, and knocking on the door harder and harder.
Finally, she saw that the person inside the door ignored her, so she started banging on the door.
Snap—Snap—Bang—
The little man took the axe from somewhere, raised it up and started chopping at the door.
That voice made the four people's hearts drop heavily. Ruan Jiyan and Li Mingyue did not wait any longer and prepared to open the door and go out to confront her face to face.
However, just as they took a step forward, the sound of the door being hacked disappeared instantly.
Both girls felt very uneasy and were eager to help them. The damage would always be greater if four people were involved than if only two.
But as soon as Ruan Jiyan opened the door, he met the eyes of Little Red Riding Hood who was holding the axe outside. There were still some sawdust on the axe. She was stunned for a second, then grinned at Ruan Jiyan.
"Hehehe..." Although her smile was very small, Little Red Riding Hood's mouth stretched to her ears, revealing all her teeth without exaggeration, looking very eerie.
"Hehehe... Sister is very good. She didn't let me knock on the door. Hehehe..." Her eyes looked innocent, but her actions were completely the opposite. If Ruan Ji Yan didn't open this door, then their door would have rung the next second.
"Is there anything I can do for you?" Ruan Jiyan asked her in a cold tone.
"Play a game with me, hehehehe..." Little Red Riding Hood's big eyes were sparkling and full of anticipation.
The moment he looked into her eyes, Ruan Jiyan felt as if he had seen a ghost.
[Ahhhhhh, these eyes are so scary.]
[I remember that the night before was also full of singing and dancing. Pah! When I heard the singing and footsteps, the anchor leaned out to check and I saw two red dots on the wall. They looked like eyes glowing red.]
[Is it this little brat? I thought it was a ghost!]
[Have you ever encountered this situation while playing this instance? Now this little brat is no longer Little Red Riding Hood, but a werewolf.]
[When I played the Werewolf dungeon before, the task I left was not like this. I was indeed ignorant.]
[If a bug causes a butterfly effect, the NPCs may not be as powerful as before and they won't be as easy to kill. So, here comes the classic repertoire. Guess whether these players can leave the dungeon alive?]
[I guess so! I will open up Sister Ruan’s cloud streaming room in the future, and then I won’t have to download dungeons for the rest of my life!]
[Haha, a newbie, isn't it just luckier? This game never depends on luck, only strength.]
[I believed that she would be able to leave alive, because I had a feeling that she was not a simple person.]
"Play Werewolf with me...! Hehehehehe."
“…”
"We don't..." Ruan Jiyan agreed before Li Mingyue could finish her words.
"How do you play? We can play with you." Ruan Jiyan looked down at her and said coldly.
This is just fine.
There are three camps in Werewolf: the good camp, the werewolf camp and the third party camp.
The good guys include civilians, prophets, witches...
There are werewolves in the bad guy camp.
The third camp has hunters. When a hunter dies, he can shoot and kill another person, but the player who chooses him is uncertain, so she prefers to assign the hunter to the third camp.
And she is that hunter.
The werewolf has already self-destructed, so the current situation is completely beneficial to her.
"Ji Yan..." Li Mingyue wanted to persuade her again.
"It's okay. The four of us can't beat her alone." Ruan Jiyan patted her hand and comforted her.
Even if Little Red Riding Hood stabbed someone, three people could still vote her out.
Besides, there is no such possibility, they will definitely kill her.
“Hahahahahahaha!”
All of a sudden, the two people followed Little Red Riding Hood out of the room and walked to the door of Yin An and the others' room, wanting to invite them in, but looking inside the broken door with only a frame left, they could not see the two people.
Ruan Jiyan even put the gun into the system mailbox, ready to take it out at any time.
Yin An and the other person were called out of the bathroom by them, with two knives in their hands trembling.
"Hehehe, brothers and sisters, please play games with me!" Little Red Riding Hood looked at the four people and smiled charmingly.
Finally, five people sat at a long table and began to follow the system prompts.
[It’s dark, please close your eyes——]
In an instant, everyone's vision went dark. It wasn't that their vision became dark, but it was as if everyone was forced into a completely dark and enclosed space, unable to see anyone or hear any sound.
They actually separated the people and then attacked them with swords. Ruan Jiyan, who was very confident of victory before, now seemed a little uncertain.
If she was the first person Little Red Riding Hood prepared the knife for, then she would be confident that she could kill Little Red Riding Hood.
But if Little Red Riding Hood chooses to kill the other three first, she cannot guarantee their safety and can only pray that they can cope with it.
或者，會不會有之前的情況，狼人變成隊伍當中的一個玩家，利用僞裝身份刀人？
之前隊伍裏唯一一個攻擊位，就只是尤傑一個，而其他人等級又要更低一點，所以對上身為狼人的小紅帽可能不好應付。
她在黑暗中呆站很久，一直等待着狼人來找她。
整個空間裏，都是非常純粹的黑，像一個黑洞一般，貪婪的吞噬了所有的光芒和聲音。
周圍冰冷的氣息将人團團包住，順着身體表面鑽進心房。
時間越久，阮紀言越擔心。
她不知道其餘三個人現在還有幾個是安全的。
雲播間裏為她分析局勢的人越來越多，現在這個新手副本已經徹底刷新了其他玩家的世界觀。
［這環節從哪冒出來的，這是非死不可的節奏嗎？］
［不對啊，說是新手副本，但是他們這個除了在做小紅帽劇情任務之前和這個名字與新手狼人殺副本一樣，後面的越走越偏，這個副本會不會早就不是單純的新手副本了？］
［我想起了一個人，你們還記得那個“祂”嗎？他之前說過，這個游戲沒有絕對無解的劇情，一切bug的出現是為了增加游戲難度，也是為了給玩家們利用的。］
［那個以破壞游戲劇情，卡bug通關副本出名的封神榜第一的大佬嗎？］
［就是他!我還記得游戲剛開服不到三個月，他就直接屠榜封神榜新人榜風雲榜等所有榜上第一！］
［你們覺不覺得這個萌新有時候的風格還挺像他的，會不會這個萌新身後的大佬就是他啊？］
［樓上你不要搞笑，哪裏像了你說，不要往萌新臉上貼金，眼神不好就去看病去。還身後大佬呢，你怎麽不說她就是那個大佬啊？］
［不是，老鐵你別太荒謬，這個萌新和那個頂級大佬能有一毛錢關系嗎？八竿子打不着一分錢的關系好吧！］
［那個大佬之前不是說注銷賬號了嗎，怎麽可能還會收萌新呢？當時他的消息可是全服播報了呢！］
玩家們口中的大佬，在游戲宣布正式上線那一天就發過一個話題，問關于這個游戲的看法。
當時游戲僅僅是發出上線公告，就已經吸引了一大波躍躍欲試的玩家。在他發完這個話題之後，迅速就有玩家蓋起來話題樓。
“這個游戲和我以前玩過的端游不一樣哦，說實話還沒有嘗試過這種類型的游戲呢，期待！”
“恐怖副本游戲，巧了！我是恐怖游戲主播，已經把互聯網上的恐怖游戲盤包漿了，終于來新游戲試手了。”
“看着宣傳cg還挺簡單的，給我兩個月時間，我就能将它玩一遍。”
……
無數玩家都抱着好心态期待游戲上線，游戲上線之後不過一個月，玩家人數就已經破億，一切都超出玩家們的期待，所有人都盼着它越來越好。
畢竟從沒有一個游戲能夠如此包容且開放，恐怖元素之多，尺度之大還全程沒有馬賽克。
游戲上線兩個多月，全服第一個登榜新人榜、風雲榜榜首的人出現，緊接着又登上最強玩家榜、功勳獎勵榜和封神榜第一。
游戲公屏每天都在播報他的最新榮譽，而這人也一度成為玩家追捧的強者。
他每次下副本都是一個人，也沒有選擇匹配隊友。但是他沒有在鏡頭前露過一次臉，也沒有人在游戲裏碰到過他。只是他每次從副本回來，就在游戲讨論區發布游戲攻略。
直至游戲上線第三個月，這個大佬消失了，快有一個月。再出現，就是在游戲公屏上留了最後一次言：準備賬號注銷了，霸榜這麽久給各位添麻煩了，或許以後大家有需要我還會回來。再見了……
至此之後，再也沒有見到過那個叫“祂”的玩家。
這完全黑暗的空間讓阮紀言一下子回到剛進入副本的那個瞬間。
于是她在黑暗中摸索着走了兩步，第三步就怎麽也邁不出去。
前方好像有什麽東西擋住了她，但是她伸出一只手去碰時又什麽都碰不到。
很久很久之後，她也沒能再往前邁一步。
然後，砰的一聲，她又像睡着之後猛的從夢境裏驚醒。一睜開眼，大家都坐在桌前，臉上的表情都一樣的懵懂。
［天亮了，請睜眼。］系統聲音響起，将所有人的思緒拉回。
［昨夜……有玩家死亡，女巫未救人。死亡玩家已隐藏，請各位玩家開始投票。］
有玩家死亡？
“有人死了……”李明月顫顫出聲。
但是，現在坐在桌前的人，一個也沒少……
她這帶着哭聲的話像一個巨石，砸在了幾個人因系統的話語而緊繃的心，啪——一瞬間，心被砸的稀爛。
又是這個場景，又是要在他們當中找出那個狼人。
這不僅是對被投票玩家的折磨，也是投票玩家的折磨。
投票，也相當于一次殺人。他們無法知曉是對是錯，結果一旦出來，就無法再挽回。
人們都因為緊張而變得不自然，這種情況下根本無法準确判斷究竟誰會是那個狼人。
所有人都沒有動作，于是系統女音再次響起：［玩家可以開始發言。］
發言，發言來為自己證明，這是一局游戲唯一一次能夠幫助自己擺脫嫌疑的機會，但是沒有任何人說話。
阮紀言低着頭，沒有看幾個人，也沒有說話。
她在回想，他們之前好像每一次都有進行投票，還沒有試過不投呢。
哦，不。
她剛進入副本的時候，那次投票就沒有投到最後，好像是因為鬼手被她拿下來了，所以到最後也沒有什麽懲罰。
對，鬼手在這個副本是除了狼人之外威懾力和傷害最高的npc，而鬼手現在在她手上。
那麽如果狼人在他們當中，那麽他們就算不投票，狼人也沒有辦法當衆選擇懲罰他們，因為他還要僞裝。
那除了狼人之外沒有能夠鎮壓鬼手傷害的npc，所以她也就不用害怕會因為拒絕投票而受到任何npc的懲罰。
“不用說了，我們都拒絕投票就好了。”她聲音很平靜。
“為什麽？”陳鑫不解的大聲問道。
她是想讓他們直接都被懲罰嗎？
“是……因為鬼手已經沒辦法在繼續懲罰任務嗎？”尹安問她。
“是。”
鬼手現在是她的游戲道具，當然不會再對他們進行懲罰任務。
“對呀！這個副本能殺人的除了狼人就是鬼手，但是現在鬼手死了，狼人又僞裝起來了，那我們就不用真的投出一個人去接受死亡了。”李明月有些激動，看了尹安和阮紀言兩眼，有些想要得到肯定的眼神。
“所以，我們只要一直沒有動作，投票就沒有辦法完成。而狼人急着殺人，不會在此浪費太多時間，距離下次開始殺人時間一定不會太長。”
“所以我們就等着第二次游戲開始就好。”阮紀言分析了很多，聲音冷淡神情自若。
而第二次狼人要殺誰，她大概是知道了。
不過幾分鐘之後，系統聲音果然再次響起：［第二輪游戲開始，天黑請閉眼。］
又一聲類似燈光熄滅的聲音之後，幾個人又回到第一輪的黑暗密閉的空間裏。
這次阮紀言明顯沒有那麽無措，她站在黑暗當中，很平靜。
仿佛在等待老友的到來。
而後，就有一束光從頭頂打下來，漸漸的，黑暗中走出一個人，和她一樣，平靜的走來。
“果然，我沒有猜錯。”阮紀言看着來人竟然笑了一下。
“尹安”也朝她笑了，“你真的很聰明，比其他人都聰明。”
他又冷笑一聲：“可惜，你不該那麽聰明，因為這樣或許就不會死了。”
很多次，他的計劃都被眼前這個看似人畜無害的萌新給打亂。
一開始準備在小紅帽家就将他們殺掉幾個的時候，就險些被阮紀言突然探頭觀察而發現，形态還沒改變只能匆匆躲進牆壁。
後來想要借助那個發瘋的怨魂厲鬼的手殺掉他們的時候，這個女人又用鬼手反殺掉了那瘋鬼。
他竟不知道鬼手已經被她不知何時收入囊中成為道具！
最後就是剛才，他本覺得一個不到五級的萌新根本不足為患，但是竟讓她鑽了空子沒有投票，最後人少死了一個，那就只能先将她殺掉，這樣就不會有人給他搞破壞了。
“我無話可說，你要殺就動手吧。”阮紀言沒有再和他多廢話，只是催着他殺掉自己。
她這個态度倒是讓他有些意外。
“還會有人着急着求死，那我就不多說了。”
只見“尹安”的臉慢慢變得扭曲，最後一整個面部擰成一團，然後就像一塊死肉一般掉到了地上。
他身上的皮肉一層一層的掉落，漸漸看到皮肉下面的灰黑色的長毛。
“留句遺言吧。”他聲音變得沙啞粗糙，嘴巴一張一合，露出長長的尖銳的獠牙。
阮紀言沒有說話，只是詭異的笑了一下。
In an instant, the werewolf slightly bent its body and rushed towards her, opening its terrifying mouth as if to swallow her.
…
[It's dawn, please open your eyes.]
[Last night, a player died. Players, please start voting.]
Once again, the four of them sat at the table. This time, the game was more silent than ever.
The expression on Li Mingyue's face was unexpected and a little panicked, and she looked at Ruan Jiyan for help.
Ruan Jiyan looked like he had lost his soul, his eyes were cloudy and unfocused, he just stared at the table without saying a word.
"This time...someone died again!"
