【Round Table Game:
There is a deck of cards on the table. Everyone takes turns to choose a card until the number on someone's card exceeds 24 points. Every time someone exceeds 24 points, a light in the room will go out. When someone's card is exactly 24 points, the game ends.
(Note: When all the lights in the room go out, something terrible will happen!)]
The ghost messenger and the female ghost in red also walked over and saw the words on the note.
After reading the rules of the round table game carefully and looking at the three cards that were completely identical, the air pressure around the ghost was so low that the red-clothed female ghost on the other side tightened her clothes in fear.
Seeing the ghost messenger who seemed to be angry because he was trapped in a secret room and had to play games, the red-clothed female ghost recalled the information she knew about the ghost messenger. After thinking for a while, she explained to the ghost messenger in a low voice: "This ghost messenger... Sir?"
"I have also heard of this kind of small game space. I heard that it cannot be broken through by force, and we can only act according to its rules. Please don't get angry. Our primary goal now is to get out."
The red-clothed female ghost now looks the same as she did before her death, a fair and clean girl, and she speaks clearly. From the outside, you can't tell that she is the culprit who caused so many people to jump off the building.
After hearing what the red-clothed female ghost said, the ghost just glanced at her indifferently, then sat down on a chair next to the round table and looked at the cards on the table, very calmly.
The ghost who appeared serious and calm on the surface was actually very flustered inside, especially when he saw the notes about the round table game.
[System!!! What’s going on? Why did I suddenly end up in a secret room? Am I not here to catch ghosts?] The ghost messenger was a little upset.
Originally, he came to the old campus to catch ghosts late at night out of passion and impulse, but now he actually wants to play a game with the female ghost, and it’s the kind of game where you will die if you fail???
[Dear, calm down.] The system's voice did not sound fearful, but rather had a strange sense of excitement, [Didn't I say this before? There is a horror game world integrated in, so sometimes you will encounter this kind of situation. And... wouldn't you be able to catch more ghosts this way?]
[More...ghosts!? ?] The ghost took a deep breath in his heart and frowned in annoyance.
Seeing the ghost catcher frowning as he sat there, Shen Bing pursed her lips coldly, then walked over and sat down.
Although this was the first time Shen Bing encountered this kind of game, she had encountered countless ghosts since she was a child. Compared with those evil ghosts that would start fighting at the slightest disagreement, this kind of horror game was not so bad.
And... Shen Bing secretly glanced at the ghost.
Although I have never seen them, I heard that these ghost catchers from hell are quite powerful and specialize in catching evil spirits. This time, with the ghost catchers and her, who is destined to be unlucky, there shouldn't be any trouble.
Watching the ghost messenger and Shen Bing sit down, the red-clothed female ghost thought for a moment, curled her lips slightly and smiled, then sat down as well.
She's already a ghost anyway, so it can't get any worse, right?
Ding Dong——
After the man, the ghost and the ghost messenger sat down, a ding-dong sound was heard in the room, and then the cards on the table automatically opened into a circle.
[Please draw a card!] A sinister and hoarse voice sounded, speaking to the ghost.
The ghost let out a breath, then reached out and randomly drew a card. It was...
[Seven o'clock.] The eerie, hoarse voice spoke out the cards directly.
It seemed that they didn't expect that the card drawn would be called out directly. The people and ghosts in the secret room were a little surprised, but the hoarse voice didn't give them time to continue to be surprised. [Continue, next one.]
In clockwise direction, next is Shen Bing.
Shen Bing looked at the cards on the table, reached out and pulled out the card closest to her, which was ten.
[Ten o'clock, continue.] The eerie and hoarse voice said in the same tone.
Then the female ghost in red also drew a card, which was three points.
Next, the three of them drew a few more cards. The ghost drew three and five, and the female ghost in red drew six and one, which meant there were still many numbers left before reaching twenty-four.
Shen Bing's situation was more dangerous, as she drew eight and four. Adding the ten points from before, she now had a total of twenty-two points, two points away from twenty-four.
In other words, the card she draws next time must be less than or equal to two, otherwise one of the lights in the secret room will have to go out, and there are only four lights in the secret room...
As the points on the cards in the hands of the people in the secret room got closer and closer to twenty-four, the eerie and hoarse voices of the people in charge of counting seemed to carry a hint of gloating.
[Hehe, eight o'clock.] The voice counting became more and more excited.
This time the ghost drew eight, which was almost twenty-four.
Next it was Shen Bing's turn. Shen Bing took a deep breath, raised her hand and picked up a card at random. It was...
[Three o'clock! !] The eerie and hoarse voice shouted excitedly.
As his voice fell, a lamp in the secret room exploded with a bang, and the light... went out.
After one of the lights went out, the room became darker, and there seemed to be some shadows wriggling near the broken lamp, like evil spirits about to break through the wall.
[Keep going.] The eerie and hoarse voice did not give the ghost messengers any extra time to think. He urged Shen Bing and the others to continue drawing cards.
[System, is there any way for us to win?] The ghost looked at the table with a serious face on the surface, but he was actually secretly wanting the system to help him cheat.
There was no other way. If he only relied on so-called luck, he was afraid that even after all four lights were turned off, they would not be able to gather 24 points.
At times like this, don't worry about cheating anymore, or you might even lose your life.
[Dear, there is a good luck halo here...]
【Lucky Halo: People who wear it will become extremely lucky.
Time limit: one hour.
Price: 200 energy points. 】
[…Can I buy on credit?] The ghost asked with a frustrated look at his remaining 10 energy points.
[……] The system was silent for a while, [Dear, after discussion with our superiors, we can give you credit.]
[Then buy it!] The ghost said hurriedly as he looked at the cards he had drawn.
The cards were drawn very quickly, and several rounds passed in a flash. Now the cards in the hands of several people were mostly around 20 points, and it was a dangerous moment again.
Looking at the equipped Good Luck Halo, the ghost caught a breath of relief and checked his own cards, which were nineteen points, which meant he still had five points left.
With the power of Good Luck Aura, he should be able to draw five points in the next draw, which is a sure thing.
only……
Just because the ghost messenger is lucky doesn’t mean that others are also lucky.
