One is Alvia. After all, her lover was teased. Even though she knew that this was a plot setting and the other party was just an NPC without life or emotions, she was still unhappy. Alvia, who was originally unusually cold, was full of aura. Even though the ghosts had been captured, the players present did not dare to move.
It was only when Zhou Zhou leaned over to his ear and said something that his expression finally relaxed.
The other one is Shirley, whose face is two feet long and exudes strong resentment, which is scarier than a ghost.
Keli sighed, "Before Zhou Zhou stood behind you, I guessed that the ghost was going for Zhou Zhou, and it was probably a coincidence that it ran into you. You didn't even think about your appearance...Ah!!!"
Shirley twisted Keli's arm with an expressionless face. Keli's painful scream frightened everyone so much that they trembled and retreated one after another.
After "executing" the chattering Keli, Shirley slowly raised her head and threatened: "Nothing happened just now, there was no pervert, and I didn't say anything. Do you understand?"
The players nodded quickly, fearing that if they were slow they would be "executed" like Keli.
After that, Shirley and Elvia were killing people everywhere. The three ghosts they met one after another, the shaggy ghost, the Rakshasa ghost and the big-headed ghost were subdued very easily.
Everyone knows that Elvia is very powerful, but no one expected that Shirley, who is full of anger, is also not to be underestimated. She grabbed the shaggy-haired ghost's hair and swung him around several times.
Even Keli, who was covering his arm, was stunned.
They have killed six ghosts so far, and only four are left to complete the mission.
As the sky gradually brightened, they searched the temple for a long time but could not find the remaining ghosts.
"There is still one place we haven't searched." Zhou Zhou looked at the tall tower not far from the temple. He had thought of this tower last night, but it was too dark and they had discovered several ghosts in the temple, so they had no time to go there.
It's daybreak now. Since we can't find it here, we might as well go to the tower and have a look.
The temple has a back door. After going out of the back door and walking up the winding path, you will reach the foot of the tower in ten minutes.
The tower has nine floors and is built with blue bricks. It looks like it has not been completed yet. There is nothing inside the tower, even the ceiling and beams are not painted, and are completely bare.
The tower was not very tall, and the first floor could barely accommodate nine of them. The blue brick steps on the side were even smaller and more crowded, and it was estimated that the higher one went, the fewer people it could accommodate.
Originally, Zhou Zhou was going to be the first to go up. After all, he had the most ghost-catching talismans in his hands, and as long as they could stick them on the ghost, they would be successful.
But Zhou Zhou was stopped by someone, and the trio wanted to go up and explore the way first.
"We haven't done anything since we entered the dungeon. Although we have a high probability of clearing the dungeon by following you, we do feel bad about it. Let's go up and test the waters this time."
Seeing that the three of them had the same attitude, Zhou Zhou's favorable impression of them increased a bit: "But if you go up, it might be dangerous."
There is even a possibility of being eliminated.
The three players were very relaxed: "If it's dangerous, it would be just as dangerous if you went up first. Besides, even if we are really eliminated, it only means that our strength is not enough."
Zhou Zhou has met all kinds of people in the game. He likes making friends and is very friendly to players with good personalities.
The other party was very persistent, so Zhou Zhou gave them a piece of talisman paper and told them to stick it on if they encountered a ghost.
There are only four pieces of these talismans left, and only Zhou Zhou and Shirley have them. They can be said to be two completely unrelated teams in the dungeon. After all, the mission does not require them to form a team.
Currently, the credit for obtaining props and catching ghosts all goes to the opposing team. In fact, after working with them, the mission progress of the three people is gradually increasing, which means that as long as they keep going like this, they will be able to pass the level.
However, these people play games not to gain points or improve their levels, but to enhance their mental strength, so facing difficulties head-on is their style.
They originally thought that being cannon fodder was no big deal, but they didn't expect Zhou Zhou to actually give them talisman paper. Naturally, they would accept this favor.
After expressing their thanks, the three players walked up the stairs one by one, and the others followed closely behind them. The higher they went, the fewer players could be accommodated, and everyone gradually stayed in the middle and lower levels of the tower.
All the way up to the ninth floor, there is only room for one player to go up.
One of the three players went up, but there was still nothing there.
The tower has not been repaired yet and is completely empty. You don't even need to look hard to find it; the layout of each floor is clearly visible.
Everyone was a little disappointed. After all, they had been too successful in finding ghosts before, but now they couldn't find any.
I walked down the stairs carefully. Not only were the stairs steep and narrow, but there were no handrails on either side, so I could only walk down slowly one by one.
"It seems that the remaining ghosts are still in the temple. Let's go back and look for them carefully."
"Could it be that the remaining ghosts only appear at night? Think about it, most of the ghosts we caught before appeared at night."
“That’s possible.”
The players walked down the stairs while discussing. The last player was the only one who entered the ninth floor. He held the talisman paper tightly in his hand, originally thinking that he could contribute, but in the end, he got nothing.
He looked back unwillingly, only to be met with a pair of cold and ferocious yellow pupils.
The player was instantly horrified. When did this appear? Why is there no movement at all?
Before the player could even exclaim, he suddenly disappeared from the spot before his eyes.
The player walking in front did not notice anything unusual and was still listening to others discussing where to look.
A piece of yellow talisman paper fell lightly to the ground and was picked up by a white hand.
Zhou Zhou looked at the familiar talisman paper, then at the people coming down the stairs, with a puzzled look on his face: "Why is the talisman paper on the ground?"
Because of the previous conversation between the trio, Keli and others decided to let Zhou Zhou and Elvia stay downstairs to rest, and they followed them up to find out what was going on. When Zhou Zhou asked, he pointed behind him and said, "Isn't the talisman paper that... that person?"
The player at the end disappeared.
But they didn't hear any movement.
The group of three became a group of two, and these two people also used special methods to determine that their missing companions were also eliminated.
There is indeed a ghost hiding in this tower, but no one has seen what the ghost looks like. They were too careless. Because things had been going so smoothly before, they let their guard down and gave the ghost an opportunity to take advantage of them.
Shirley looked at the task panel: "The task panel shows the ghosts we have encountered. The one in the tower is a hanged ghost."
After losing two companions in a row, the remaining two players wanted to go up and subdue the ghost, but were stopped by others.
Qian Le patted his chest and said, "Leave the rest to us. I'll go up and take a look at the situation."
"You're so brave. I'll go." Eddie had already taken a few steps forward.
Now everyone is concentrated on the first floor, and they saw the last player on the third floor, which means that the other party disappeared on the second floor.
Eddie stepped onto the stairs, stuck his head out from the stairs to observe the environment on the second floor, but found nothing.
"There's nothing on the second floor. I'll continue going up."
Following closely behind was Qian Le, holding a talisman in his hand, alert to his surroundings while also paying attention to Eddie's movements.
They reached the eighth floor but still found nothing.
Eddie walked up the steps to the ninth floor carefully. The higher he went, the smaller the area of the tower became, and even the steps became much smaller.
He looked up at the ninth floor and was shocked to find a person hanging on the beam on the ninth floor.
And this person was none other than the player who had just disappeared. He was hung on a beam by a white silk thread, with his neck tilted and a look of fear on his face. His eyes were wide open and bulged out from his eye sockets. At the moment when Eddie tilted his head back and looked up, his eyes met with the other player's.
"Ouch." Eddie lost his balance and almost fell down the stairs. Qian Le quickly supported his back to avoid an accident.
"What's going on? What did you see?" The entrance to the ninth floor was blocked by Eddie, and Qian Le could not see anything from behind.
Eddie closed his eyes and said, "The player was hanged on it."
"Ah? Did you see the hanged man?"
Eddie paused. He had just made eye contact with the player's corpse and didn't see anything else.
"Let me take another look."
Eddie stuck his head out again, this time deliberately avoiding the corpse and searching around. The ninth floor was very small, and there was nothing on the ground at a glance. Eddie prepared himself mentally and looked upwards.
The first thing you see is the wooden beam with white silk hanging on it swaying slowly in the wind outside the window.
There was no ghost, and Eddie felt slightly relieved.
Just when he wanted to turn around and tell the people behind him that no ghost was found up there, he happened to make eye contact with the corpse.
The player's bulging eyeballs were staring at him, not in a distracted and aimless gaze. Eddie clearly saw the pupils of the bulging eyes moving downwards, looking in his direction, staring at him intently.
Everything around seemed to go into slow motion. Eddie couldn't hear what Qian Le was saying behind him. It seemed that all his attention was focused on the facial expression of the corpse.
The other party's originally frightened expression gradually eased, and the player with his neck tilted even gave him a faint smile, which, coupled with his pale skin and bulging eyeballs, was indescribably weird and terrifying.
For the first time, Eddie felt creepy and his brain went blank.
"Hey! Hey, hey, hey!" Qian Le saw that Eddie seemed to be frozen in time, not speaking or moving, and patted his back in confusion.
After being slapped continuously by Qian Le, Eddie finally came back to his senses. He didn't dare to look at the corpse again. He turned around and shoved Qian Le roughly: "Hurry, hurry, get off!"
"What's wrong? Did you see a ghost?" Qian Le was pushed downstairs. He originally wanted to see what was up there, but under Eddie's pushing, he had to pay attention to the steps under his feet.
"The player's body is very strange. I suspect the ghost is on the ninth floor."
Qian Le raised the yellow talisman paper in his hand and said, "Then let's go and catch it."
The ghost is clearly on top, why is it running down?
Eddie felt terrified whenever he thought of the scene just now, but if he didn't go up now, would he have to wait for Zhou Zhou and Elvia to take action themselves?
After hesitating for a while, while others were asking what happened, Eddie finally made up his mind: "Give me the talisman paper, I'll go catch the ghost."
Qian Le always thought that Eddie looked very strange. After spending some time together, the two of them became more familiar with each other. He stared at him suspiciously, and suddenly realized: "Are you afraid?"
The voice was so loud that I guess the whole tower could hear it.
Eddie really wanted to beat him up, but when he saw everyone else looking at him curiously, he immediately said, "No."
By the time Eddie had prepared himself mentally and went up again, the corpse on the ninth floor had disappeared.
Together with the white silk.
Zhou Zhou and Elvia were waiting on the first floor of the tower. He also wanted to go up and take a look, but the stairs were too narrow. Even if he went up, he could only follow at the end and could not see anything.
After the pervert disappeared, Elvia has been staying by Zhou Zhou's side all the time, with an expression that was difficult to discern.
Zhou Zhou simply took Alvia's hand and held his fingers together: "Don't be unhappy, I like you the most."
Zhou Zhou spoke very naturally, and Alvia held Zhou Zhou's hand tightly. He was indeed very dissatisfied with the previous NPC, but the real reason for his unhappiness was that he found that his possessiveness towards Zhou Zhou was too strong. Before they were together, he could convince himself that these people were his friends and he was just a friend.
Now that her identity has changed, she always hopes that Zhou Zhou will focus all his attention on her and doesn't want him to pay attention to others.
This copy brought together many friends Zhou Zhou met in the game, so most of Zhou Zhou's attention was given to these people, leaving too little for himself.
Just look at me, I only have you, and you only have me.
This was a bad idea. Elvia didn't want to become as greedy and selfish as most members of the royal family.
So, be restrained.
Suppressing the greed in his heart, Elvia looked at Zhou Zhou's still clear and clean eyes and touched his head.
Suddenly, a strange feeling came to her heart. Alvia hugged Zhou Zhou in her arms protectively, her eyes constantly scanning the surroundings.
Something is approaching.
Zhou Zhou didn't know what was going on. He raised his head from Elvia's arms and his eyes fell on the beam not far away.
A woman in white was hanging there, her eyes closed, her face purple, and her long tongue sticking out of her mouth, hanging in front of her body.
Zhou Zhou felt nothing in his heart and blinked in Elvia's arms. This was the hanged ghost.
