Another dark space crack gradually opened.

In the pitch-black space crack, six figures slowly walked out one after another.

These six people were led by Tang Guang, who were ready to enter the horror world and get rid of the six red-clothed players on bus No. 444.

At this moment, we have just entered the world of horror.

Among the players, Ma Yuan, who was entering the horror world for the first time, immediately showed a nervous look on his face.

Before I entered the horror world, I had already heard other experienced players talk about how scary the horror world was.

Now that he had actually entered it and felt the strong atmosphere of danger all around him, Ma Yuan finally understood that the descriptions of the horror world by those experienced old players were not exaggerated at all.

In other words, in order to prevent players like Ma Yuan who are entering the horror world for the first time from being too nervous, they have actually weakened the horror level of the horror world a bit.

Except for Ma Yuan, who entered the horror world for the first time, the other players had experience entering the horror world before.

But when he entered again, the nervous expression on his face did not diminish in the slightest.

Among them, including the team leader, the senior red-clothed player Tang Guang, he also had a solemn look on his face.

The six players in red who entered the horror world even subconsciously softened their breathing.

Every time players enter the horror world, their landing point is almost random.

Before, a group of people could only land in one place if they entered through the same space channel.

Entering the horror world at this moment, Tang Guang's sight immediately fell on the surrounding environment and buildings, wanting to know where in the horror world he was currently.

At the same time, Tang Guang took out an old animal skin map that looked very old and even had a ghostly aura.

Xia Jie and the others standing by did not say anything at this moment, and they all looked at the map in Tang Guang's hand.

Even though Ma Yuan, who entered for the first time, understood that this was most likely a detailed map of the known areas currently explored by players in the horror world.

What is not yet certain is where they are now.

Soon after comparing the animal skin map in his hand, Tang Guang seemed to have finally determined where he was.

Tang Guang immediately felt relieved. He turned around and looked at Xia Jie and the others. A relaxed smile appeared on his face.

"There is no problem with our landing point. It is still within the known area."

Hearing this, Xia Jie and his companions immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

No matter where they are now, as long as the place they land this time is still within the known area, it will be fine.

After all, with the existence of maps, the dangers in known areas are obviously much less than those in unknown areas.

At the same time, a player in red in the team looked at Tang Guang and suddenly asked.

"There was no accident at our landing point this time. According to the known information, how far is the location of bus No. 444 from here?"

The known areas currently explored by players may be less than one-tenth or even one-hundredth of the entire horror world.

One tenth, one percent, seems very small.

But that is also relative.

For this vast and endless world of horror, less than one percent of the space is also extremely large.

If you want to walk from one side to the other in the known areas that have been explored so far, it may take a long time if nothing unexpected happens along the way.

It would be fine if the No. 444 bus was not too far from where they were, but if it was on the other side of the known area on the map, the level of trouble would be greatly increased.

But soon, Tang Guang's answer made everyone in front of him breathe a sigh of relief.

"Don't worry about that."

Tang Guang showed the animal skin map in his hand in front of Xia Jie and others.

Then he pointed to a direction in the lower left corner of the map.

“This is roughly where we are now.”

Then, Tang Guang moved his fingers down a little further.

The place where Tang Guang's finger rested at this moment was the outermost known area on the map.

Outside, the map is marked with black graffiti to indicate an unknown area.

Tang Guang's finger also stayed on the intersection line of the unknown area and the known area.

"We have received information before that bus No. 444 has appeared at this location many times. If nothing goes wrong this time, it won't take too much time to get to the place where bus No. 444 appears according to where we are now."

Hearing this, Xia Jie and his men all nodded slightly to show that they understood.

"Then let's go without further delay. If we can get rid of the No. 444 bus sooner, we can also go back earlier."

Ma Yuan on the side couldn't help but speak up. Although it was his first time entering the horror world, after a period of time, the tension on Ma Yuan's face had mostly disappeared.

But after hearing this, Tang Guang shook his head.

"Don't worry, take your time."

"Why?"

Ma Yuan asked doubtfully.

Tang Guang first glanced at Ma Yuan, and then his eyes slowly looked around.

Seeing this, Ma Yuan couldn't help but follow Tang Guang's gaze.

What caught my eye was the terrifying and eerie atmosphere that could be clearly sensed inside many of the surrounding buildings.

These strange auras, even the weakest ones, made Ma Yuan a little frightened.

The sources of those strange auras were all red-clothed ghosts who were no weaker than Ma Yuan.

At the same time, Tang Guang's voice also rang out at this moment.

"Have you forgotten that this is a horror world, not a single game instance! And do you really think that there is only one instance like Bus No. 444?"

Hearing this, Ma Yuan's heart tightened and he immediately understood what Tang Guang meant.

If they are facing a single copy, just like the resurrection projection in reality, then Ma Yuan and the others can naturally use any means to solve it.

But in the horror world, that is the home of evil spirits.

In the horror world, they need to face not only the target copy, but also other copies that are not the target and they need to be vigilant at all times.

If there is any major disturbance, it is very likely to cause a chain reaction.

After all, the horror world is no longer the home ground for human players.

They are more like intruders into the world of horror.

If they really make too much noise.

The second half of Tang Guang's sentence was also very clear.

Some copies in the horror world may be fixed. As long as you don't enter the copy or make too much noise nearby, you will be fine.

But there are also some copies like Bus No. 444, which have no fixed location in the horror world.

If they are unlucky, they may just stand there doing nothing, and those free-moving copy ghosts may happen to bump into them.

Just when Ma Yuan was stunned, Tang Guang's voice rang out again.

"Let's leave here first. We players have an aura that doesn't belong to this world. We can't stay in one place for too long. Otherwise, there will be a greater chance of attracting evil spirits from the horror world."

Hearing this, Ma Yuan felt even colder in his heart.

He had actually planned to find a safe place to hide and wait until the twelve hours were up before taking action.

In that case, even if players really encounter some difficult-to-deal-with evil spirits, they can simply exit the horror world.

But the rule that Tang Guang mentioned immediately dispelled Ma Yuan's idea.

There were no bugs in the game copy, but I didn’t expect that in the horror world, there were bugs that could prevent their players from existing.

"Okay, don't think too much. Just follow me first. Remember to be careful on the road. If you provoke a powerful red-clothed ghost, even with my strength as a high-level red-clothed ghost, I may not be able to take you away safely."

Tang Guang said that as the leader of this team, he had already started to act as he recalled the contents on the map.

When the other players saw Tang Guang start to move, they no longer stood there in a daze and quickly followed Tang Guang's pace.

But because of Tang Guang's words, it can be clearly seen that the other players in red have become more cautious.

Among these players, Ma Yuan was the most cautious.

Xia Jie, who was following the team, seemed to have noticed Ma Yuan's overly cautious attitude.

At this time, he slowly approached Ma Yuan and comforted him with a smile.

"You don't have to worry so much. Although the horror world is dangerous, as long as we are not too unlucky, nothing will go wrong."

After hearing Xia Jie's consolation, and considering that the other players in the team were all experienced veteran players, Ma Yuan's expression finally looked much better.

Ma Yuan said, showing a grateful expression to Xia Jie.

"Thank you. I'm much better now."

Xia Jie nodded slightly, and then suddenly laughed.

"That's good. Actually, when I first entered the horror world, I was in a similar situation as you."

The voice paused, but Xia Jie's expression suddenly became mysterious, and he continued to speak.

“But if we can really solve the problem of bus No. 444 this time, maybe there will be some surprises.”

"surprise?"

Looking at Xia Jie's mysterious face, Ma Yuan's face suddenly showed a look of curiosity.

Hearing Ma Yuan's serious questioning, Xia Jie's mysterious face continued to show a little more smile.

"Believe me, you will definitely like the surprise. Those things are far from comparable to those in the game dungeon. They are... real good stuff."

Hearing this, Ma Yuan seemed to understand something. His eyes suddenly flashed and even his eyes lit up.

And the other side.

The place where Li Yinchuan was located was in a strange square that had become ruins.

At this moment, Li Yinchuan set his sights on the ruins.

Previously, because the copy was shattered, many props and places inside the copy that contained a strange aura disappeared along with the collapse of the copy.

But at this moment, after everything in the copy completely collapsed, Li Yinchuan keenly discovered that in the ruins of the strange square, there were still some props with a strange aura that had not collapsed and disappeared along with the copy.

He raised the axe in his hand, and the axe ghosts surged.

A piece of ruins containing a strange prop was blown away, and under the control of the Lumberjack Axe Ghost, the strange prop was sent directly to Li Yinchuan.

But when Li Yinchuan saw the strange props in front of him, his eyes suddenly flashed.

The thing in front of him was nothing else but the thing that had existed in the strange square before.

It was a bright red balloon with a weird, twisted smiley face painted on it.

If Li Yinchuan remembered correctly, the strange square had not yet collapsed.

There were many balloons hanging with ropes on an unmanned toy stall in the square.

However, Li Yinchuan had ignored these things before.

Now that the entire strange square has been destroyed, the remaining few strange props that have not disappeared with the collapse of the copy have naturally been noticed by Li Yinchuan.

He took the bright red balloon with a twisted and weird smile on it in his hand.

A blue-red light appeared above the smiley face balloon, and it turned out to be a top-level third-level ghost item.

Seeing this scene, a strange expression suddenly appeared on Li Yinchuan's face.

"This is... the equipment exploded after completing the dungeon?"

Li Yinchuan was not unfamiliar with monster-killing games, and had even played games that were more advanced than those on Blue Star.

But at this moment, after he had just finished destroying the strange square dungeon, these few ghost props were suddenly left, making it difficult for Li Yinchuan not to think of this as equipment explosion after completing the dungeon.

Controlling the Ghostly Lumberjack Axe, Li Yinchuan took the remaining props with a strange aura from the ruins.

Sure enough, the remaining few items were also ghost props in the strange square.

But when he knew that Li Yinchuan's eyes were looking at the last prop with a strange aura, his eyes suddenly froze.

Because this thing is not any of the things in the strange square before.

This is a black sphere about the size of a fist, dark all over, like a huge water droplet.

The black sphere is not solid.

The surface of the black sphere was constantly trembling with ripple-like marks.

But when Li Yinchuan felt what this black sphere was made of, he suddenly fell silent.

If the former ghost props were the equipment that dropped after Li Yinchuan completed the dungeon.

Then the black sphere in front of him was the experience pack that Li Yinchuan got after he finished the dungeon! This black sphere was composed of rich ghost energy.

And the ghost energy in it is not the ghost energy in the horror world that contains strong negative emotions.

The black sphere contains the pure ghost energy that players receive when they receive ghost energy infusion at the end of a game instance. (End of this chapter)
