Chapter 67
In the shopping mall, the riots and unrest are still spreading.
The uniformed security guards quickly stepped forward to maintain order, but it lasted less than a minute before a voice of disarray suddenly rang out from the crowd:
"What's going on?! Why is there no signal on my phone?!"
"It's the same with me. I can't even make an emergency call!"
"That's impossible. Isn't this a shopping mall? How could the signal suddenly disappear?!"
The sounds came out in twos and threes, attracting other people who had not noticed the problem with their cell phone signals. Everyone lowered their heads and took out their cell phones to check what was going on.
Chen Yan held Xing Nuo and stood on the fourth floor not far from the stairs. He also took out his cell phone and glanced at the phone whose signal had been blocked long ago.
There were small exclamations and curses from the side, but Shen Yan didn't even raise his eyelids, obviously not caring much.
He took out another mobile phone from his pocket and saw that the signal was indeed full.
After clicking on it a few times, Chen Yan put the phone back and rubbed Xingnuo's little head to calm his anxiety.
"It's okay, we'll be able to go back soon."
Xingnuo hummed twice and rested his little head in his brother's arms. In his ears were all kinds of noisy shouts. For a moment, he felt that his thin eardrums were vibrating wildly.
Seeing this, Shen Yan reached out to cover the little guy's ears, and a complex look flashed across his eyes.
Why is it that wherever the little guy appears, there are always abnormalities?
Is it really a coincidence?
First floor lobby.
The crowd had already dispersed in panic, leaving a large empty space in the middle where two or three people were lying, their lives or deaths unknown.
There was an enthusiastic nurse who wanted to go over to see what was going on. She took a step toward that direction and was shot at her feet the next second.
"ah!"
The nurse covered her legs, raised her head and looked around, but did not see who was opening the wooden warehouse.
"Who is it? Why are you playing tricks on me?!"
"Did you see who opened the wooden warehouse just now? I didn't think I saw anyone!"
"I was watching, but the bullets were coming out of nowhere! No one was firing the cannon!"
As soon as this sentence came out, goose bumps began to quickly appear on many people's arms.
The shopping mall has been in turmoil until now, but no troublemakers have shown up?
Just as everyone was wondering if this was a prank, a cold and piercing laugh suddenly came from mid-air.
"Good afternoon everyone, hahaha!"
Immediately, a female voice sounded:
"It's been a while since I've seen so many living humans! This dungeon is quite interesting!"
"I found this copy specially for you. How is it? Not bad, isn't it?"
The teasing and sarcastic laughter in the air disappeared, and then several figures carrying heavy machine guns appeared.
There was nothing under their feet, just floating in the air on the third floor.
Amid the screams of the crowd, their bodies landed rapidly on the ground in the first floor lobby with a thud.
In the middle of the first floor of the shopping mall is a hollow hall with a small activity booth in the middle, which is where many children came to get free cars.
At this time, there were a few people standing on the booth, laughing loudly. They were not afraid of the gazes of people in the mall, and they were showing off their weapons to everyone.
"Hahahaha! A bunch of weakling humans!"
"Wow, I miss it so much, I used to be one of these people!"
"Now I don't need to take weapons, I can knock down everyone here with just one stick, haha!"
"This is so interesting. This dungeon is actually connected to the real world! Why didn't I find such an interesting dungeon before?!"
A few grinning players raised their heads and looked at the frightened and panicked gazes of the ordinary humans around them, feeling an inexplicable sense of pride in their hearts.
They are different from these humans now. They have participated in dungeons, awakened their special powers, and have long since left the scope of ordinary people.
As the players were feeling smug, a broadcast was heard from the mall that was accidentally dragged into the dungeon world:
【bite! The level of the dungeon has been upgraded. Players are requested to actively look for clues and clear the dungeon as soon as possible! 】
Hearing this voice, the man with a piece of floral cloth wrapped around his forehead hissed softly and whispered:
"Brother Dao, why did the level of this dungeon increase? Did something unexpected happen?"
A girl in high boots next to her shook her long red hair and looked at the man in floral cloth with disdain.
"Do you have to be so cowardly? This copy that is connected to the real world must be different from the previous ones. It's just an upgrade of one level. Look how scared you are."
The man named Brother Dao should be the leader. He raised his hand with a nonchalant look on his face.
"Okay, we came to this dungeon just to get more points, right? But I remember coming to this mall before I entered the dungeon."
Thinking of something, Brother Dao sneered.
"At that time, these shop assistants were very snobbish. Seeing that I was poor, they looked at me as if they wanted to stab me to death."
Then he threw his head back and laughed out loud again.
"I didn't expect that I would come back to kill you again! Where are the shop assistants?! Tie them up for me later and kill them one by one!"
His men echoed.
Only the man in flowered cloth was a little worried at the beginning, but he had little influence and opened his mouth but finally did not dare to say anything.
After a few arrogant players finished their performances, the crowd started to talk noisily, with waves of voices coming one after another.
"Who are they?"
"Superman? Or does he have super powers? How can he jump from such a high place without dying?"
"Shit, everyone really evolved behind my back, didn't they? How come they left me behind?"
Ordinary people were still a little confused about the situation, and some elderly uncles and aunts, relying on their age, stood in front of these gangster-looking players and refused to leave.
"What kind of robbery are you doing?! Let us out right now, or I will lie here and blackmail you to death!"
Some players didn't buy it. They raised their guns and pressed the latch without hesitation.
With a bang, another corpse appeared lying in the hall on the first floor.
Now, those who were still hoping for a lucky break felt their scalps go numb and they all stepped back in agitation.
"Ahhh! They really can kill people!"
“Run!”
A few gangster players seemed to enjoy watching this kind of scene. The feeling of being feared by everyone made them feel like they were floating in the clouds, and they all laughed out loud.
"Brother Dao, this dungeon is so fun!"
A man with inverted triangle eyes touched his chin, looked at the beautiful girls in the crowd, and hissed softly.
"Previous copies only had some NPC monsters, unlike this real copy, which has so many real people. It's so exciting!"
"I told you, this kind of copy should have appeared a long time ago. Why are we the only unlucky ones dragged into this horror world? Everyone should be allowed to come in together! Let them experience what excitement is!"
The players were originally a few troublemakers, but after entering the dungeon, they obtained some special items and superpowers. When they faced ordinary humans again, they actually began to look condescending.
Several players seemed to be in no hurry to complete the mission.
They were originally just completing tasks in the dungeon, but who knew that the interior of the mall would suddenly change and swallow up a normal mall in the real world.
The gloomy and dilapidated shopping mall where the players were originally located was gradually covered with brand new tile floors like a tide, and the walls became as smooth as new.
The lights above our heads also began to become brighter and brighter, and everything seemed to have returned to normal.
The players, who have experienced many horror dungeon worlds and have long had their minds distorted, now look mad and insane when they see the humans from the normal world suddenly appearing in the dungeon.
That’s great!
They thought they would never come into contact with real humans again in their lifetime!
There's no need to rush about tasks.
Let’s just have some fun with real humans first!
A game of pursuit began so unexpectedly.
The crowd was noisy. The fourth floor was farthest from the battlefield on the first floor. Some people hurriedly hid in the nearest shops and closed the glass doors.
Chen Yan held Xing Nuo and returned to the toy city where they had just ridden the rocking car.
The crowd around them kept making uneasy noises. Xingnuo was placed on the rocking car. He stretched out his little hand to grab the tiger head of the rocking car by the ear, turned his little face and asked:
"Brother, are there any very bad people coming?"
The scene of several players floating in the air just now was so shocking that almost everyone in the mall saw it.
Shen Yan nodded and rubbed the little guy’s furry head.
"It's okay. The owner of the mall will be here soon, and then these bad guys will be kicked out."
Xingnuo nodded his head, clenched his little fist in indignation, and waved it in the air a few times.
"These people are so bad! Let the owner of the mall kick them all out! Lock them up!"
Shen Yan's lead-gray eyes revealed a hint of tenderness, and he pinched the face of the little guy who was full of justice.
"It's like this. If you don't follow the rules, you will be punished no matter what."
Chen Yan is a monster who likes to create various rule copies.
Most of the copies of various sizes under his command are rule-based, and players need to get specific things or escape specific scenes without breaking the rules.
The meticulous, rigorous and serious style of work can show Chen Yan's personal characteristics, whether in a real company or in a copy of the horror world.
As the players were recklessly opening their warehouses towards the humans, the system prompt that had just been online came back to remind them:
[After testing, the core rules of the copy have been changed:]
[Players please check in time and do not harm normal humans wantonly! 】
