Chapter 546
"After exchanging their understanding of the hospital, the five people's adventure officially began. The hospital is very large, and they have to choose a building to start their initial journey, so please choose."
There is no need to roll dice here, so Jenkins and his friends discussed and decided to start from the main building facing the gate. This time, Mr. Corpse did not embarrass them, and directly explained that the gate was open and everyone could enter directly, but as soon as they entered, they were given a "surprise":
"Your arrival disturbed the resentment sleeping in the hospital. When the five people stepped into the room, wailing came from the top of the stairs, and then the evil spirit appeared."
The buildings on the table are all made of wooden frames, and there are no walls, so the players at the table can see what is happening inside. The white metal evil spirit wood carving has appeared, confronting the five adventurers who have just entered.
"Can you escape?"
Mr. Hood asked.
"Yes, but the evil spirit will chase you."
Mr. Corpse replied.
Mr. Hood shook his head to express his opinion, and then looked at the other four people:
"Friends, this game is indeed unexpected. But things have come to this point, we have to tell the truth. The five adventurers in the game probably have a deep relationship with you, so we can't let them die in the game. Now everyone, please tell the truth to a certain extent-"
He paused, and then asked in a low voice, as if he was plotting something:
"Who are the gifters?"
This question seriously involves privacy, especially when a person's name and appearance are known, knowing whether he is a gifter will pose a great threat to this person.
But what Mr. Hood said makes sense. The current situation is that everyone has to cooperate and trust each other. Finally, after everyone swore to God that they would keep today's secrets strictly, Hathaway admitted that Mr. Writer was a gifter, and it was shown as level 4 in the data card; Miss Magic also admitted that the foreign female Countess was a gifter, but only level 2.
"Are they the only ones?"
Mr. Hood asked in despair, but it was really just like that.
The order of the battle is determined by the position of the adventurers in the story at this time. Since only the sailor and the writer are men among the adventurers, they are at the front and back respectively, so the first to attack is Mr. White Cat's sailor.
And it is well known that physical means cannot cause any harm to spirits.
"The sailor is a devout believer in the righteous god [Storm Lord], and he prays for the god to protect him."
Mr. White Cat can only do this. After the throw is successful, Mr. Corpse announces that the evil spirit will not attack the sailor first.
Jenkins also noticed that the sailor's [Prayer] ability value reached an astonishing 87 points. He suspected that his character card did not have such a high [Prayer], so he suspected that the sailor Mr. White Cat knew was probably a high-level clergyman of the [Storm Lord] Church.
"The foreign female baron uses [Exorcism], which can make the spirit push away."
Miss Magic said, and then took the dice from Mr. White Cat. She threw 99 points. Fortunately, this is not the "COC" running group in Jenkins' memory, otherwise it would not be as simple as failure.
Section 1330 Chapter 1307 Curse of the Evil Spirit
"The next ones to act are the merchant's daughter and the noble girl. Because they are not benefactors, nor are they sailors who have seen all kinds of cruel scenes, their spirits are greatly stimulated. In this battle, any value rolled out will be increased by 10."
Mr. Corpse spoke before Jenkins and Mr. Hood. Jenkins was too lazy to calculate how many values were added to the characters he and Mr. Hood controlled.
He glanced at the two parties still confronting each other on the table setting and said:
"The noble girl was frightened, so she retreated and hid behind the writer William."
"The merchant's daughter is the same."
Mr. Hood understood Jenkins' intention and said immediately.
"No problem, but in this case, there is no need to roll the dice. Note that because of this dodge action, your characters cannot make any actions, including saving friends, before being actively attacked."
Mr. Corpse nodded and looked at Hathaway:
"It's your turn."
"I want to know, who decides the action of the evil spirit?"
"I."
Mr. Corpse answered simply.
"So if I respond first, will you target me?"
Hathaway discovered the blind spot.
"But the character you control reacts first, which means he attacks first, not after being attacked. This is in the rule book, but you probably didn't see it."
He said this, and then motioned Hathaway to touch the dice.
Hathaway's eyes were fixed on the small metal piece in his hand, and it took a long time before he said:
"Jenkins Williamson is ready to fight, he uses..."
At this moment, the players at the table became nervous. From the current situation, this combat power is the most important.
"He uses the special ability [Prayer]."
Hathaway said this, and except for Jenkins, the other three were confused, because prayer itself has no lethality.
But Hathaway, who had read all the ability descriptions, had made a decision and rolled [33] points, while Jenkins' prayer had [72] points.
Mr. Corpse took the two dice on the table and announced:
"Evil spirits use [Fear Aura]."
The statues facing each other on the table immediately started to move. The sailor knelt down on one knee to pray. The viscount held up his skirt and sprinkled something shiny like grains of salt at the evil spirit at the front stairwell. The two young men The girl stepped back in panic, while the writer held his cane and walked forward while waving his right hand.
A miserable green light appeared next to the evil spirit, and it also moved towards the crowd. Ignoring the sailor who was praying in place, he then escaped the Viscount's exorcism, and finally ran into Jenkins head on.
A faint golden light flashed past, and the evil spirit disappeared on the spot. The woodcarvings gathered around Jenkins as if celebrating.
"How is this going?"
Mr. Hood asked in surprise.
"I don't know. The ability description just says that Jan...Williamt's prayer has special power."
Hathaway shook her head slightly, then looked at Mr. Corpse:
"Maybe you can explain."
"I don't know the characters you control. It seems like your friends have a lot of secrets."
Jenkins was overjoyed when he heard this, knowing that it was impossible to write all the secrets of his past densely on that piece of metal.
"Although they encountered an evil spirit, because there were users of supernatural powers in the team, the group did not suffer much loss. They followed the stairs and found the location where the evil spirit appeared in the broom room on the second floor. There is a female skeleton. So what are you going to do now?"
Mr. Corpse asked as the wood carvings moved to the second floor. The writer and the sailor blocked the door of the broom closet, and the three ladies behind looked at the dilapidated corridor with interest.
"Examine the bones."
Mr. White Cat said.
"The sailor's special past experience allowed him to master the means of examining corpses, but you still have to roll the dice... OK, luck is quite good. After observation, the sailor concluded that this woman died thirteen years ago. However, due to the severe damage to the body, the specific cause of death could not be discovered, but the sailors concluded that the dark bones were definitely not natural. "
“Writers use [the occult].”
Hathaway then said, I don’t know what the basis of the judgment was, but Jenkins’ [Occultism] was actually as high as 92 points.
"The writer examines the remains from an occult perspective and determines that the skeleton contains a very powerful curse. Since you have killed the evil spirit, the curse is now about to escape from the remains, and you must make a choice: What Don't do anything, wait for the curse to return to the hospital and contaminate the five adventurers; use the fire in the lamp you carry with you to burn the corpses to prevent the curse from being released on the adventurers. "
"Fortunately, the writer has superb occult skills. If it cannot be tested, we may be in trouble."
Mr. White Cat praised.
Not surprisingly, everyone supported burning the remains. Because there are combustible materials such as old sheets in the hospital, the lanterns used by the adventurers can be used as fire sources, so there is no need to roll dice to summon flames.
In the scene of the wooden table, the beautiful red color quickly reflected on the wooden carvings of five people and one cat. The people at the table seemed to hear a cry, and then the skeleton that looked like it was made of black iron disappeared.
"The adventurers decisively burned the evil spirit's bones and expelled the curse from the hospital. Then they..."
"Sorry, what does that mean? Expelled from the hospital?"
Jenkins, who was sitting at the table, frowned and asked, interrupting Mr. Corpse's words very rudely.
"You made the decision to immediately release the body-burning curse, so the curse is expelled, that's it."
Mr. Corpse answered looking Jenkins in the eyes.
"So what does being kicked out of the hospital mean?"
Mr. Hood also realized the problem with this sentence.
"Literally, that is..."
Mr. Corpse stood up, walked around the round table to the wall beside the fireplace, and then completely opened the curtains that had only a gap.
It was only ten o'clock in the morning, but the thick black clouds made the Nolan City outside the window as scary as night. Strong winds howled through every street, black lightning struck from high in the sky, and women's wails could be faintly heard coming from the sky.
It was not like this when the game just started. Outside the window at that time, it was still a peaceful and peaceful Friday morning.
The whole city seemed to have fallen asleep, and no pedestrians could be seen from the windows. The city is cursed, and the players around the round table know it.
Chapter 1331 Chapter 1308 Perfume
"May I remind you that you did not search the broom closet, but if you had, you would have found something."
When everyone stared out the window blankly, Mr. Corpse said,
"Search the broom closet."
Hathaway said this immediately, so the writer's wood sculpture stood there and watched for a moment, and then accurately took out a small book from the rotten wooden wall.
"After burning the remains, the adventurers found the notes written by the corpse before his death. In the notes, they learned that the curse on the hospital thirteen years ago had finally become completely out of control. When the church sealed the hospital, The curse clung to the last five living people, cursing those souls into evil spirits.
If new living people appear, the curse will cling to them, affecting them as they leave the hospital; if the curse is burned along with the remains, they will immediately be free to leave the hospital... "
"You just lied. You clearly said that everything that happened here was not true!"
Mr. Hood said harshly, standing up from his chair.
"I didn't lie. I just said it was untrue for the five adventurers, but I didn't say it was abnormal for the hospital and the city."
Mr. Corpse said calmly, still sitting.
"Is there any way to remedy this?"
Mr. Hood frowned and continued to ask. Among the five, only he and Jenkins did not cover their faces.
"Maybe there will be a method in the hospital, but this has to be explored by adventurers."
The scene outside the window does not look like an illusion. The atmosphere of dark clouds over the city can be felt even if several people are indoors. All five people stood up and looked at Mr. Corpse, but the latter showed no pressure at all. During the confrontation, Jenkins suddenly said:
"You are a demigod."
He used a statement tone, so his companions were startled.
"Mr. Corpse, you are really weird. I thought you were a member of the B-11-1-0299 [Story within a Story] event, but now it seems that you are similar in nature to us, both of us are proactive. Participated in the game. But we are adventurers, and you are the one who fights against us.”
This is the conclusion that Jenkins came to after observing, because even from the beginning of the story to now, Mr. Corpse's aura is still the aura of a normal gifter, but it is slightly biased toward alien species, but it is definitely not a derivative of a type B event.
"Sir, it would be better to say that you are also very strange. As the host of this story, I have the authority to know some basic information about you, but to me, you are like an unreal phantom that I cannot see. clear."
Mr. Corpse said, the corpse spots on his face shaking as he spoke.
"There are many things that you can't see clearly. For example, you shouldn't have come at all today, and you shouldn't have threatened Nolan."
Mr. Hood's tone was quite harsh, even though he knew that the other person was a demigod.
"I have my purpose, and you have yours. Since you have time to accuse me here, why not continue our story, maybe you can find a solution before the curse completely spreads to the entire city. Don't forget , The hospital’s curse has its roots, but the church didn’t discover it thirteen years ago.”
Mr. Corpse's threat made everyone angry, but the reality was that the other party was a demigod, and no one here was a demigod. Considering that Nolan was in a precarious situation outside the window, they could only sit back and continue to play the game. Jenkins looked at Brienne's character card in his hand, thinking about how he could have some positive effect without hurting the blonde.
"Because of the writer's reminder, the adventurers burned the bones before being cursed, found the notes left by the evil spirit during his lifetime, and learned that there were a total of five curses contained in this abandoned suburban hospital. They A decision must be made now, whether to continue exploring or to leave this dangerous place immediately.”
"We can't leave. We don't know what the actual situation is like in the abandoned hospital. Without the game, the curse may not be solved at all."
Mr. Hood spoke first, and the others also knew that their actions had released the curse, so they all agreed to continue. But Hathaway agreed reluctantly, and Jenkins knew what she was worried about.
"Your current location is on the third floor of the main building of the hospital, so where should you go next?"
Mr. Corpse asked again.
"It's better to keep going up. We always have to explore every corner anyway."
Miss Magic suggested.
"I think we should go directly to the administration building at the back. Maybe the past dean's office will have clues."
This is Mr. White Cat’s opinion.
