Cai Lu pushed open the door, revealing a small room with bedding and quilt covers piled on the floor and a cabinet door against the wall tightly closed.
She looked around and although there was no sign at the door, she guessed that this was the linen room.
I looked towards the door, but Xiaoxiao didn't follow me. I didn't know where this tongue ghost came from, and why Xiaoxiao was so scared.
I could only continue walking inside, stepping on the bedding, my feet feeling light and having no place to rest.
The copied tongue ghost data is nearby and is still actively running, which shows that the tongue ghost did not cut off the infected tongue.
The room was silent. She walked across the bedding, onto the smooth, clean tile floor, without noticing any movement. But the data was indeed in this room...
His eyes swept across the cabinet door and his steps stopped.
If he wasn't mistaken, what he saw from the bottom edge of the half-open cabinet door just now was... a tongue?
She had originally thought that such a large tongue would be very conspicuous, so she hadn't paid much attention to it. But what she saw was a normal tongue, except that the tip was broken off.
Walking over lightly, Lu Cai used a dagger to push open the half-closed cabinet door.
A "creaking" sound was heard in the silent room. A head was stuffed in the compartment of the cabinet, and black and red blood soaked the white pillowcase.
This is a man's head, he looks to be in his thirties, with three-dimensional features, deep eye sockets, and a somewhat European and American facial contour.
Lu Cai frowned as he looked. His long, protruding tongue dangled from the edge of the cabinet door, a strikingly bright color. The red color, which had stagnated, began to spread again, crawling over his entire head, like blood oozing from the skin. His head turned a bloody crimson before disintegrating into a fine powder.
She stood there, not expecting this to happen, and was ready to fight hard, but her opponent died on the spot.
It's just... quite a surprise.
After walking around the room and finding nothing, Lu Cai left. She first went to the mirror fragments in the hallway and observed them. Except for the intact mirror fragment containing the voodoo doll, the other fragments were still in their original state.
But the tongue ghost is dead—
Could it be that the head just now was fake? Even if a ghost could impersonate someone, her data couldn't be faked.
Speaking of which, after the long-haired ghost died, he didn't leave behind a complete mirror. So, is there another mystery behind this, or has Xiao Xiao been lying from the beginning?
Just as he was feeling annoyed, Lu Cai raised his head and saw a crayon drawing hanging on the wall at the corner of the corridor.
Black lines outline the scene, while bright crayons fill in the blank spaces. The entire painting is a mixture of innocence and weirdness.
The content on the drawing paper was disturbing. It was a girl of seven or eight years old, holding the doll with black hair and pink skirt that Lu Cai had met before. The girl was holding a pair of large black scissors and cutting the doll's face and legs, but the child was completely unaware. Blood was flowing from her back and onto the ground.
The ground was covered with broken mirrors, and Lu Cai could only watch from afar. Gazing at the picture frames on the wall, she guessed that they were stories about ghosts.
So the person possessed in the voodoo doll is a little girl of seven or eight years old?
Lu Cai raised her hand and rubbed her head. She couldn't go off topic anymore. What she really wanted to think about now was how to find the "Eye of the Ghost Mirror".
So is killing ghosts the way to piece together the lenses? This dungeon is too difficult. There's no rules for fighting ghosts, and there's no rules for judging them.
Looking up at the picture frame again, Lu Cai hesitated for a moment, then leaped up, stepping on the foothold between the lenses and leaping to the wall. She raised her hand and gently touched the picture frame, and a scream rang out in Lu Cai's ears.
It was a child's scream, the kind of cry and tantrum that occurs when a demand is not met.
Black and white shadows flashed before her eyes, and she was suddenly plunged into darkness. After two or three seconds, the surroundings became bright again.
Lu Cai stood still, as if she had fallen into a pure white world. Just as she was clenching her fists, ready to strike out, a black and white image appeared before her eyes.
It was a hotel room. A little girl of seven or eight years old was holding a doll, but her face was full of anger and dissatisfaction. Not only that, if you looked closely, you could see a deep hatred in her eyes.
The scene flashed by, and it was still the same girl, she was sitting on the ground, starting to poke the doll's head with scissors. The child's expression was crazy and focused, with an innocent smile on her face.
Then, a young woman ran into the house screaming. Outside the window, the sound of an ambulance siren was heard. The crowd outside could be vaguely heard talking. They said that a young girl suddenly felt dizzy and fainted. She hit her head when she fell and was bleeding a lot.
The woman grabbed the doll and scissors and threw them into the corner. Then she hugged the girl and trembled and cried, muttering to herself, "Mom knows it's not your fault. You are still a child. Someone must have taught you bad things."
The doll leaning in the corner was facing the embracing mother and daughter, with a stereotyped smile on its face that held a hint of intriguing sarcasm. The girl in her mother's arms showed a pair of dark eyes from the woman's arms, staring at the doll.
A huge suction force pulled Lu Cai from behind, dragging her back a few steps to steady herself. When she looked up again, she was already back in the corridor.
The portrait was still hanging on the wall, but her fingertips had left the frame.
That was the origin of the voodoo doll... Did it all originate from a child's twisted mind?
And the words of the woman in the painting - you are still a child...
It can be said that Lu Cai was not surprised that this child became an evil ghost.
This is a story about a spoiled brat who gradually turns dark and vicious, and eventually turns into a ghost.
After summarizing his thoughts, Lu Cai prepared to enter another fragment to test how the fragments would react if the ghost died. Turning around, he saw a mirror fragment floating in the air in the middle of the corridor, while the intact mirror on the ground, symbolizing the voodoo doll, had vanished.
The complete mirror that appeared after the voodoo doll disappeared, the ghostly past seen through the picture frames on the wall, and then the mirror fragments hanging in the corridor...
Therefore, you must first kill the ghost, so that a complete mirror appears, then use the complete mirror to trigger the memory of the portrait on the wall, and finally the complete mirror disappears, becoming a suspended fragment...
Can you get a mirror by piecing together the suspended mirrors?
Could this mirror be a ghost mirror?
......
No matter what, Chief Lu stepped on a piece of broken glass and jumped down.
The scene changed, and she fell from the ceiling. She squatted down when she stepped on the ground, steadied herself, and looked up to observe the situation around her.
There was no smoke in this corridor, no flickering lights, and no broken mirrors blocking the way. She looked up. The broken mirrors were stuck to the ceiling, and the suspended mirrors were still half-floating in the corridor.
After making sure there were no ghosts, she turned her head and looked at the wall at the corner, where there was also a painting hanging.
It is an ink painting, with thick ink and fine outlines. It shows a hunchbacked man holding an axe, and there seems to be a person lying at his feet, with only a shoulder and an arm exposed.
Cai Lu raised his hand and touched the picture frame, but nothing happened.
Sure enough, you have to get rid of the ghosts first and get a complete mirror before you can trigger this picture frame.
If you want to know what the headless ghost and the long-haired ghost are, you can first find the corresponding paintings and figure out their origins.
Boom boom boom——
Lu Cai heard the sound and turned towards the source of the sound. The knock on the door came from another corner.
She put away the dagger and took the pistol in her hand. Slowly she walked past the suspended mirror. She paused, listening to the footsteps approaching around the corner.
——
Xiaoxiao squatted in the corridor and looked at the lens on the ground, pointing her fingers at the ground at her feet. The sound of high heels gradually approached behind her.
"Xiaoxiao, do you think you can leave here with her help?" The woman behind him asked harshly, her tone filled with deep disappointment. "Even if you kill us, you can't get out—"
"Sister Chunling, we won't know whether we can get out until we try." Xiaoxiao said with a smile without standing up, "Did you see the ghost mirror fragment? We only need three more pieces to awaken the ghost mirror."
Chunling stood in the dim light, the apricot blossom branches swaying slightly on the hem of her cheongsam. She looked at the girl squatting not far away, her eyes slightly dark, her emotions difficult to discern.
"You have already decided to use our souls to pave a way out—" Finally, Chunling spoke slowly.
Xiaoxiao chuckled: "These years I've been here, every day has been torture." She gradually stopped laughing, "Don't act like I'm ungrateful. You killed me, and even after I die I have to meet you murderers every day..."
The sound gradually subsided, and it was so quiet that one could only hear the sound of the wind.
Chunling frowned, and by the time he understood what she said, his body had frozen in place, unable to move.
Soul Capture! Xiao Xiao actually used Soul Capture against her!
She opened her eyes wide, and a gust of cold wind blew, and Xiaoxiao's swollen face appeared before her.
"Sister Chunling, you said you would take care of me." The girl smiled and raised her hands to cover Chunling's eyes. "Why should I stay with the murderer who killed me? Sister Chunling, please take care of me one last time. I want to be the 'Eye of the Ghost Mirror'——"
Chunling watched the light in front of him gradually being blocked, and a small voice slowly sounded in his ears.
"It was Sister Chunling who taught me how to capture souls. I will always remember Sister Chunling's kindness." Xiaoxiao seemed to be sighing, "So, I plan to put an end to Sister Chunling with my own hands--" The voice gradually faded away.
——
Bang--
The moment the footsteps turned the corner, Lu Cai pressed the button. She saw a tall, straight figure in a black suit. Without thinking too much, she guessed his identity.
A headless ghost.
Headless ghost!
The man, shot in the chest, rushed towards her. Lu Cai aimed directly at his knees and hit him furiously. Seeing the headless ghost falling in front of him, Lu Cai easily jumped away and the man fell to the ground.
She was also surprised that this operation could be used to break the knee and leg.
The headless ghost had a broken leg, and his skinny and slender hands were crawling on the ground, his ten fingers digging into the ground, motionless.
Lu Cai couldn't understand what he was doing. Just as he was about to observe it for a while, he found that the broken leg was getting closer and closer to his body.
Actually playing this trick...
Aiming at his other leg, he pressed the trigger. Another burst of intense gunfire erupted, and the headless ghost shuddered. Suddenly, he curled his fingers, grasping the ground and quickly crawling towards Lu Cai. His violent twisting of his body revealed his fury.
The body crawling on the ground was extremely agile, which also caught her off guard.
Lu Cai jumped to avoid it, but the headless ghost was able to quickly sense her direction, and did not seem like a headless ghost.
Head? She paused, almost being pounced upon by the headless ghost.
She jumped to the side and looked at the headless ghost on the ground. This ghost had no head, but just now, she happened to see a head.
Why did the tongue ghost disappear but the complete mirror was not pieced together?
Because this ghost is not dead, the tongue ghost is not a "complete" ghost.
Lu Cai probed the ball of reverse data in his digital field and confirmed that the energy was still stable and sufficient before he stood firm facing the headless ghost that was still crawling madly on the ground.
Seeing the headless ghost crawling quickly, suddenly, the headless ghost's body shook, and the girl not far in front of him also relaxed her shoulders.
If we just want to control these ghosts, we can suppress them with pure force, but now we have to use supernatural energy to eliminate and liberate them.
This is so infuriating! Does this dungeon just want every player who enters to die?
Fortunately, she is not a player!
The headless ghost gradually twisted, his arms and broken legs twitching, and his dry fingers dug into the floor as if they were broken.
The red body gradually dissipated and finally turned into ashes.
Lu Cai leaned against the wall, watching the headless ghost grind to dust before her eyes. She breathed a sigh of relief and looked up at the hanging mirror. A red eye stared at her through the mirror.
My heart skipped a beat, and the mirror was empty again.
In a supernatural dungeon, these kinds of scares are inevitable. Lu Cai consoled himself, thinking that perhaps the red-eyed creature was the ultimate boss of the dungeon.
Putting the suspended mirror aside for the moment, Lu Cai turned to look at the broken mirror on the ground. A square complete mirror was surrounded by fragments.
The second mirror was complete, and Lu Cai withdrew his hand and stood firm. Very good, the next one is the Axe Ghost! After all, besides the Axe Ghost, there are only Xiao Xiao and that Chunling sister left.
Perhaps everyone still has a distinction between close and distant people in their hearts. Chunling was pressed on the head by her, and Xiaoxiao was threatened by her. Neither of them was scary. Only an axe ghost once tried to pull her into the fragments.
Axe Ghost, an absolute enemy, must be killed——
Looking at the remaining fragments, which one should she choose now?
The pieces of debris on the ground were really hard to choose. Finally, Lu Cai closed his eyes, jumped blindly, and sank into another space.
——
The lights in the corridor grew dimmer and dimmer, and the ends of the corridor seemed to have fallen into an unknown black hole and melted into the black fog.
The door of the guest room slowly opened, and a round head poked out from the crack of the door.
Yue Xiaoyan looked around, making sure the hallway was safe before carefully moving out. When the door was fully opened, she was wearing a white quilt cover, like a long robe.
She slipped her entire body into the quilt through the zipper, cutting a large hole at the edge corresponding to the zipper for her head to stick out. Perhaps because the quilt cover was too long, she tied the two corners at her feet to prevent her from stepping on them and falling.
When she walked out of the room, you could see her holding a baseball bat through the quilt.
A short while later, another tall young man walked out. He was dressed the same as Yue Xiaoyan, wearing a quilt and carrying an old baseball bat. However, because he was taller, he didn't need to tie the corners of his quilt.
Shi Rukui looked at his own outfit and found it a little funny.
Since players and ghosts are at the opposite ends of the spectrum, players cannot attack ghosts directly, and their abilities become useless.
After being hunted by the headless ghost, the two also tried to drill through a few fragments. Luckily, they didn't encounter any ghosts, but apart from the picture frame on the wall, they didn't find any other clues.
Finally, I can only stop temporarily and analyze the solution carefully.
"Since in the negative supernatural book, ghosts can use props to harm us, can we also use props to harm ghosts?" Yue Xiaoyan was a little hesitant, but her thoughts were not blocked at all.
But Shi Rukui rejected her plan of "using tools".
"I've read other players' feedback. Not many players enter the Supernatural dungeon to begin with, and experience clearing the Negative Supernatural dungeon is even rarer." Compared to the Supernatural dungeons that dramatically reduce SAN values and lack attack guidance, players prefer straightforward physical dungeons like "Dead Rising" and "Alien Monsters." These aren't mind-numbing, and they can directly enhance physical performance and stimulate supernatural power. "And the news that's particularly valuable is that 'in the Negative Supernatural dungeon, items touched by the player become their own property and cannot be used as weapons against ghosts.'"
After hearing this, Yue Xiaoyan fell into deep thought. If this game doesn't want people to live, just say it directly...
"So why did you enter this copy?" Yue Xiaoyan looked up at the young man in the white coat in front of her.
Shi Rukui smiled bitterly: "I owed a debt and was being chased for it. I came in in a hurry."
Yue Xiaoyan's expression was solemn, and her gaze towards him was different. Being chased for debt? In the community, administrators didn't prohibit usury, as it could incentivize players to complete dungeons. Whether a player lived or died was none of the administrators' business.
When you enter the KB game, as long as you restrain yourself from buying props crazily, even if you slack off in the dungeon, you can still get by in the social field.
Being rushed into a dungeon by debt collectors? How much more should he build? Ugh—stay away from him, otherwise, when she returns to the community area, the debt collectors will mistake her for his friend and they might even chase her for debt together.
Seeing the girl's undisguised evasive movements, Shi Rukui's eyes twitched: "We can't hide forever. We can't rely on Lu Cai alone."
Yue Xiaoyan broke away from her speculation of "Is this person a gambler, a smoker, or a shopaholic?" and began to think carefully about his words.
After a long silence, she slowly spoke, "The dungeon items we touched...would it help if we put a layer of isolation?"
Shi Rukui certainly understood what she meant: "We don't know what the game's judging criteria are. If the isolation layer is infected by a player, will it also be considered a 'player'?"
"Then give it a try—" Yue Xiaoyan's tone was flat, but there was a faint light in her eyes.
Her eagerness to try made Shi Rukui feel a little uneasy.
As expected, Yue Xiaoyan stood up and walked to the bed, pointing at the sheets: "Let's put this on!"
Time is like deafness......
After she put on the quilt, she started searching the whole house, even under the bed. In the end, she was covered in dust, but she did pull out something from under the bed.
Shi Rukui walked over and saw her retreating. Just as he was about to help her, he saw Yue Xiaoyan, who had retreated from under the bed, holding two bloody baseball bats in her hands.
She turned around and was so scared that Shi Rukui almost stumbled.
I saw this fair little face covered in dust, and behind the big round glasses with black and red stripes, a pair of eyes were bright and sharp, as if they could jump out and fight at any time.
Time is like deafness......
He probably understood that after entering the branch quest, Yue Xiaoyan had been suppressed by ghosts and monsters, and she either exploded or went crazy.
......
Looking at the petite figure running out of the door with great interest, Shi Rukui sighed softly. People say that girls nowadays are very strong, and he finally believed it.
I thought Lu Cai's condition was a genetic mutation, but I didn't expect Yue Xiaoyan, the witch, to be so "brave"... The female players are all excited, so he can't fall behind!
Thinking of this, he clenched the baseball bat in his hand.
Yue Xiaoyan cautiously walked to the corridor and stopped. She looked for a moment and gestured to Shi Rukui behind her: "Safe."
"Next, let's go look at the fragments—" She shifted her gaze towards the fragments, "Pick one at random."
When Shi Rukui approached her, he discovered that the fragments had changed.
"Why is there a complete mirror here?" Yue Xiaoyan exclaimed.
Not only that, when Shi Rukui frowned, the number of mirror fragments decreased.
"Is it Lu Cai?" Yue Xiaoyan was a little surprised. "She found a way to clear the side story!"
Shi Rukui raised his hand and touched the intact mirror, but there was no response.
It seems that I can't get in...
"Let's just pick one at random." Yue Xiaoyan didn't care, "Let's see if the other corridors are the same."
Seeing Rukui nodded, she casually placed her hand on the mirror, and it was like a suction force that pulled her in.
When I stood firmly, there was a corridor in front of me.
Yue Xiaoyan's long experience in breaking through barriers had accustomed her to constant vigilance. She steadied herself and saw a woman lying not far away, bleeding profusely.
Yue Xiaoyan stepped back and bumped into Shi Rukui who was following her.
Shi Rukui was nearly knocked into the debris by her. He quickly steadied himself, looked up, and found a woman in a light red cheongsam lying on the ground.
Murderous intent came towards him, he frowned and raised the baseball bat in his hand to block it, and a swollen face appeared in front of him.
Small?
Then a trace of pain appeared on the face in front of him. Yue Xiaoyan, who was protected by Shi Rukui, also woke up and hit her small belly hard with a baseball bat.
It worked! Yue Xiaoyan was extremely excited. Once she cleared the level, she could post her experience on the forum!
This is a supernatural book! A hell-level negative supernatural book!
Forum posts help improve your personal points level. The higher the level, the more points you will get when you settle the copy!
Xiaoxiao hadn't expected to be hit, and she stumbled backwards, clutching her stomach. She took one last look at Chunling, who lay on the ground, and turned away, almost gritting her teeth.
Only after watching the small outline gradually fade did Yue Xiaoyan relax. She quickly lowered her head to look at the woman on the ground, and saw a fair, beautiful face with phoenix eyes and thin lips. A closer look at her features made her feel that this person was destined for a life of misfortune and adversity.
To die young, isn't that bad luck? To be left to harm others in this shabby hotel after death, isn't that desolate?
"Are they fighting among themselves?" Shi Rukui was still a little confused. "Or are there people from the player camp among the ghost NPCs?"
Yue Xiaoyan looked up at him with a look of pity, as if he had finally been shocked silly by the ghosts in the copy. Besides pity, there was also a hint of open-mindedness of "goodbye, I won't say goodbye".
Chunling, who was dying on the ground, suddenly grabbed Yue Xiaoyan's wrist as if he had a last burst of energy.
"Ah--" Yue Xiaoyan was startled. She stared at the slender white fingers covering her wrist. She felt dizzy and didn't even have the strength to shake off the female ghost's hand.
The wrist that was being pulled felt heavy, as if a thousand-pound iron block was pressing down on it.
Yue Xiaoyan collapsed forward, falling as if into a bottomless pit. Her voice was choked by her throat, and her vision was filled with a thick darkness.
It's over. I actually died at the hands of a female ghost who had a last burst of life!
