Chapter 150

If you keep walking like this, you will probably die of exhaustion.

You will definitely not be able to leave here if you die of exhaustion.

His eyes fell on the candle in his hand.

The boss would not give them things for no reason. If he did, it must be useful.

Since it is useful, it cannot be left unused.

Green found that the flame was very stable.

He tried to move the candle in his hand left and right, and found that the flame would jump depending on the position.

He was sure that it was not because of the wind, because before he moved, there was no wind on this road, and it was extremely quiet, as if he was actually moving under the soil of a cemetery.

He suddenly thought that his previous rush was like a ghost wall. He thought he had walked out, but in fact he was just going around in circles.

He hesitated for a moment, and used the person next to him to extinguish the candle in his hand.

Then he covered his mouth and nose.

He blinked, and the situation in front of him was completely different from before.

The people around him who seemed normal had turned into a pile of miscellaneous things.

One part was green, like souls that could not touch the ground, and the other part was corpses with different states of death. They looked a bit like zombies, not half on one side.

It looked like a ball of chewing gum and a pile of garbage were kneaded together by a hand. It looked disgusting and dirty, without any beauty, and it would only make people want to stay away from it from the bottom of their hearts.

He almost gasped when he saw these situations.

But he still remembered what the little boy said before, so he tried to hold his breath.

The boss was waving at him from the front.

He walked out, and Craigie stood next to the boss.

The boss led them one step forward, and the crowd around them suddenly disappeared, and they appeared in the middle of a huge square.

This square looked familiar, and because of what happened before, Green almost suspected that the boss wanted to bring them here to roast them, maybe fresh food would taste better when roasted.

"Why did you bring us here?"

Green asked.

"What you just did was the first activity, parading. Now I bring you to this square for the second activity, hide-and-seek.

Ghosts like to play hide-and-seek with people the most, so you must not be found, otherwise living people will become ghosts."

said the boss.

"What's so special about parading?"

Green asked.

"When you can walk out, it's over, and when you go back, this won't happen again."

said the boss.

"What I'm asking is what we need to pay attention to?"

Green said.

"When the candles are lit, it's okay as long as you don't make any noise. When the candles are extinguished, you can't make any noise or breathe, otherwise you will be torn into pieces by the crowd."

The boss replied.

"What about hide-and-seek?"

Green asked.

"That depends on you. I can't say more."

The boss said.

"Then when can we end this section?"

Green asked.

"When you find someone, hide-and-seek ends."

The boss replied with a smile.

"If I find you, does that mean hide-and-seek ends?"

Green asked.

"I don't know, but if hide-and-seek has two identities, human and ghost, and a person who is caught will become a ghost, then can't the ghost catch the person instantly and change his identity again?"

Craig asked.

"If a ghost catches a person, the person will die. If a person catches a ghost, the ghost will disguise himself as a person. If hide-and-seek is based on this logic, then aren't we doomed?"

Green answered.

"Indeed."

Craig nodded.

"The activity will start in three seconds. Are you sure you want to stand in the center?"

The boss waved at them.

They hid separately.

It was always quiet around them, as if there was no one there. Even Craig, who had just walked out, was silent.

Green felt that hiding like this was meaningless.

He thought of a way and lit the candle in his hand.

He began to look around for possible people.

But he really didn't find anyone, as if he had been alone in a world since the beginning of the game.

At first he was quite patient, but then he felt his strength was restored and started running. The sound of his running could be heard on the street, but even so no one came near him.

It was as if there was really no one here.

His strength was quickly consumed.

His speed slowed down.

He felt something was wrong, but he didn't know what was wrong, so he found a place to rest.

He even began to think about simply going back and entering the seemingly endless street just now, so that he could find people anywhere.

But he quickly gave up the idea, because these two places did not operate according to the same rules at all. If he really went there, he would probably die soon.

And he would not be able to figure out whether he died because he violated the rules or committed suicide because he was already insane. It

would be too tragic not to even know how he died.

Green was in a daze, and after a long time, he finally came to his senses, but it was still pitch black around him, with only the distant street lights dimly lit.

He saw no one, and no one came to look for him. He almost began to suspect that those people had left him here to die.

He felt that if he stayed like this any longer he would go crazy, so he wanted to do something.

He walked towards the streetlight and climbed up. Looking down, he saw that the road was full of people, looking up at him.

He almost fell off the streetlight, but he steadied himself and just hung under the streetlight, swaying back and forth, and the shadow of the streetlight followed him, swaying back and forth.

People on the road tried to climb up the streetlight pole to his side.

He tried hard to climb onto the top of the streetlight, but the cover rang twice, and the bulb shook and fell down a little, looking like it couldn't hold up.

He had to get out of here as soon as possible.

He tried to turn off the street light temporarily so that he could escape from here, but there was no switch on the street light, so he took off his clothes to block the bulb, but the bulb was too bright.

His clothes were too thin and could not block such light.

In desperation, he punched the bulb through his clothes.

There was a bang, and the bulb broke.

The bulb was originally on, but the broken bulb was hit somewhere and went out, and it never lit up again.

Green breathed a sigh of relief and quickly climbed down from the pole.

Because there were many other things on the pole, they were crowded together, and they did not find him in the dark.

It is also possible that they knew he was here but pretended not to see him on purpose to tease him.

After all, cats are among the many creatures in the world who want to tease their prey until it dies, but not just to fill their stomachs.

He started running with the white candle in his hand.

It seemed as if those creatures suddenly could not see him.

He hesitated for a moment and grabbed the nearest one. That creature had a bit of a human shape, but was sticky, green, smelled bad, and had very thin skin.

When Green touched the creature's skin, the skin broke and began to bleed. The blood inside could not be distinguished in color, but was black and smelled bad. The bloody smell was suppressed underneath.

It was like a bag of blood that had begun to rot, wrapped in a plastic bag and placed at the bottom of a trash can, emitting a foul smell.

"I caught it,"

Green said to the creature.

Everything around him rushed over like sharks smelling blood.

Green let go of his hands and hid, but a huge beam of light like a street lamp hit him.

The light was not strong and did not hurt, but it was so bright that he could not see anything at all.

He saw a very dark place and felt that his vision would return to normal there, so he ran. There was nothing on the road and he did not hit anything.

But when he approached the dark place, he suddenly stopped and backed away until he felt safe, because he thought of the things before.

He could only see those things when he appeared under the street lamp, so if he appeared under the street lamp again, would those things be able to see him again?

Before, he saw that the street lights were very bright and the surroundings were very dark. Now, his surroundings are very bright, but the street lights he saw are very dark. Does this mean that the two are almost the same?

Or that the functions are the same.

But if he keeps avoiding the street lights like this, he is afraid that he will not be able to finish this game.

He should get closer to the street lights, but he must consider what will happen after getting closer to the street lights.

Who knows what will happen after getting close to the street lights?

It is better to get closer directly.

Green took a deep breath and appeared under the very dark circle.

His vision suddenly returned to normal.

The surroundings were as dark as before, and he was under the street lights, with eyes staring at him from all directions. Among these eyes, there was a pair of very large, black and white eyes that rushed out.

He immediately ran to the side and hid.

The thing followed him, and he had to crawl on the ground.

Because it didn't make a loud noise, the thing chased into the bushes with confused eyes, looked around, but couldn't catch Green all at once.

When Green was about to leave the bushes, the thing suddenly raised its head and made a sharp sound, shouted, and rushed over.

It was discovered.

Green ran for a while, couldn't run anymore, fell to the ground, and thought he might as well try to kill the thing.

If he could kill it, he would kill it. If not, he would wait to die.

He struggled with the thing and killed it. After it died, it fell to the ground and turned into two.

Green jumped up and ran under the street light, breaking the street light bulb. The man chased after him, but didn't find him.

He grabbed the man and said, "I caught him."

The surrounding environment suddenly became normal.

It was no longer the situation before where he couldn't see anything, but just like when he first entered the square, he found the place where he stood when he first came.

The boss was waiting there.

Craigie was also there.

"The game is over, let's go."
