Chapter 566

But Kaguya was obviously serious. She took a step forward and stared at Tangyuan closely, with no intention of giving in.

These days, people who like to die are really stronger than the previous generation, although I am not much better.

Seeing that the two girls had no intention of retreating, Tangyuan thought for a moment, then nodded, and then took out a blood-stained mobile phone to dial a number.

"Hello, Xiao Li, are you there?"

As the power of the ghost story spread, Tangyuan spoke slowly, and heavy breathing came from the other side of the phone.

{Found the location, the situation on the other side is not right, get ready for battle, I will start to teleport now}

After leaving such a sentence in the mental link, Tangyuan snapped his fingers casually, and a black ring on his middle finger flashed, and then Kaguya and Qianhua felt that the surrounding space suddenly changed, as if they were being pulled in a certain direction, or the surrounding space was actively creeping to send them somewhere.

{After this use, this obsession object will be temporarily unusable, so either we solve the problem and survive successfully, or we can only find a way to walk out on our own two feet. Oh no, I heard from Mr. Gao that you two and he established a special transmission blessing mechanism. So if something really happens, it seems that only I will die...}

During the transmission, Tangyuan had time to complain casually, while Kaguya and Chika could only stand in place and support their bodies as much as possible because they could not adapt to the distortion and change of this space.

I can feel that the surrounding space is constantly distorting and alienating.

And this moving direction seems to be somewhat familiar, and it is somewhat similar to the place I saw in my perception just now. Could it be...

Squeak——

A door slowly opened.

What Kaguya saw at this moment was the ancestral hall that existed in the perception before, the mountain god of Xiaoheishan, the fox goddess, and the third god.

This Zhang family built it under the instigation of Mr. Du. It was originally intended to kill the Li family and the Liu family, but in the end it ruined their own plan. As a result, the Zhang family was destroyed, their souls could not rest and turned into strange creatures and were torn into different fragments. The bodies were also used by the Li family to become the "funeral" part of the Li family's manipulation of strange creatures. It can be said that this plan now seems to be completely self-inflicted. Although considering the situation at the time, it is not difficult to understand why the Zhang family would make such an extreme choice.

Li Xiaoxiao is in this ancestral hall.

In the brightly lit ancestral hall with candlelight, Li Xiaoxiao, who looked drowsy, sat on the empty third altar.

[Is this plan really reliable? Is there any other way? ]

It seems that such voices can be heard in the candlelight, and faces can be seen reflected in the flames.

[It is because of the belief in the mountain god and the fox goddess that we can no longer leave here. Even if we try to walk out of the forest, we will return inexplicably. We have been cursed. If we don't do something, the Li family and the Liu family will get rid of us sooner or later. Mr. Du... Mr. Du is an outsider, to be honest, we can't trust him completely, we have to think of other ways]

It's like there were several people standing here, plotting something together, discussing with a serious look.

[Anyway, at least now through a small-scale sacrifice, the mountain god and the fox goddess can respond to us to a certain extent. Although this power is not strong, it may be useful if used properly... Let me think about it, didn't someone leave the Li family recently? Those people were forced to bring the mountain god statue, I'm afraid they have been chosen as sacrifices. Let's think of a way to negotiate with those people and see if we can use them]

[This is indeed an idea, the question is how do you use them? Others are not fools. If you want them to help you do things, you have to come up with something convincing, right? ]

[This is not a way, we destroy the statues in their hands, and let the power of the mountain god be transferred from them to us. Anyway, there are many young people in the village, so it's okay to let them suffer, just don't let them know. With the second faith of the Fox Lady, it is difficult for the mountain god to sacrifice our people directly, and the balance can be maintained temporarily for a period of time. Then we can use this to deceive those people. As long as we use a little trick, maybe we can use their bodies to revive and leave.]

[If it works, it’s not impossible, but are you sure that this method is really useful? And how did you master such a skill? The Li family and the Liu family can’t leak this skill to you, right?]

[They can’t, but Mr. Du doesn’t have their consciousness. I learned these things from the secret book I stole from Mr. Du’s house. Didn’t Mr. Du say that everything is up to you? I guess he wouldn’t mind us stealing some of his skills, right? Hahaha——]

[There is such a thing, is that Du so stupid? This secret technique is not carefully observed, it seems that God is protecting our Zhang family, haha. By the way, what kind of secret techniques are they? Can I take a look? 】

【No problem, no problem, you can read it. To be honest, there are many words in it that I still don’t understand. It’s good for everyone to read it together】

Amidst the chuckles, several people who reached a consensus in the discussion turned around and left.

Amidst the laughter, someone who had been watching all this in the dark showed a mocking expression, then shook his head slightly and walked away.

[A bunch of stupid, pitiful fools, do they really think there is such a good thing? Haha, human greed is indeed the biggest sin. The ugly and pitiful Zhang family, I really want to thank you for helping me solve these troublesome things. Next, the disaster belongs to you, and these bodies contaminated by God belong to me]

While sighing, the figure had disappeared into the darkness.

And Kaguya's consciousness returned to reality in this instant.

Is this what it turned out to be like?

At that moment when the candles were extinguished, she understood what had happened here.

From the beginning to the end, the Zhang family were just used props, using their desire to survive and their greed to complete someone's plan.

{Miss Li did not come back to fulfill the promise between her ancestors and the Zhang family. She was actually summoned back as a container for Mr. Du. The Zhang family is just a superficial disguise, just a target to be used. That Mr. Du may have already prepared some kind of back-up plan, planning to use people like Miss Li to do something}

Kaguya said seriously in the temporary mental link, but the expression on her face couldn't help but become confused.

{If this is the case, then we should not wait until at least several hundred years later, until Xiao Li's generation comes back. You must know that Xiao Li returned here because the blood curse in his body was activated by a specific power of ghost talk. The probability of this is simply pitifully small. It is impossible for Mr. Du to plan hundreds of years in the future, right? And now it is certain that Mr. Du himself is one of the core obsessions, right? After becoming a monster, it is impossible to change back into a human being. Even an individual who is freed from obsession can only find rest. So what is the use of this container? }

Before Kaguya could figure out the problem, Tangyuan had already spoken out the problem in the temporary mental link.

Mr. Du is dead.

There is no future for a dead person who has turned into a ghost story or a monster. Even a guy like Fulneng in the Red Nut Ash Cave who pretends to be alive is destined to be unable to break away from the cycle created by his own ghost story rules. As for existences like Alice and [Teacher], they are things that have not been human since their birth, and cannot be confused with the weird things that humans have become. In other words, from the moment Mr. Du turned into a monster, he could never come back to life as a human being.

Because of this, the three players present could all sense that Li Xiaoxiao sitting on the altar was still herself, and her body had not been taken over by anyone.

The Mr. Du who was supposed to come and take over her body was already dead.

If this guy who is almost the mastermind behind the scenes really has any plans, then he shouldn't be in this state. In other words, before Mr. Du's plan was realized, were there any unexpected variables that killed him?

While thinking, the three of them had already entered the ancestral hall.

All the candles in the ancestral hall were extinguished at this moment, and then a strong coldness spread in the house.

A highly decomposed corpse, with only one pale hand still intact, appeared out of thin air in a dark ancestral hall. Under the player's lighting equipment, the rotten flesh of the body was constantly squirming like a living thing.

And Kaguya's eyes were locked on the opponent's neck the moment this thing appeared, and locked on the 38-hedron pendant hanging on its neck.

The core obsession appears.

He appeared in this ancestral hall together with [Mr. Du] who had turned into a strange thing, and appeared in front of the three people.

Whoosh——

[Teacher], who had been following the action silently, took the initiative to come forward at this moment and grabbed the rotting corpse in an instant, and the two figures hit the side of the house together.

Chika, who also discovered the pendant, wanted to rush forward, but Kaguya and Tangyuan reached out to stop her, and took a sharp step back.

Snap!

The blood-red dice fell on the ground, and faint blood stains appeared where the three of them had been standing, and then disappeared because they failed to reach the target.

There are other people in this cabin!

Chapter 135 Players’ fighting and the first appearance of [Wangsheng Hotel]

This blood-red dice...is the [Treasure Digger]! ?

Almost as soon as she saw the dice appear, Kaguya realized who was here.

After all, because Kaguya has had two deep integrations with Gao Hai, she no longer needs Gao Hai to use the power of a black watch to retain the memory of the last week to a certain extent. And regarding the abnormal player organization [Treasure Diggers], Gao Hai has carefully analyzed and explained their intelligence and possible situations to everyone. Therefore, from the moment she left the hidden village, Kaguya had been wary of encountering these people. This was also the reason why she used her auditory blessing to investigate behind her in the forest.

However, it would be too outrageous to show up just after arriving at this place, right?

You must know that this is a quite hidden area. How did this guy appear here? It stands to reason that as long as Li Xiaoxiao does not come back, this abandoned village will be in a twisted and chaotic state, making it impossible to enter safely, right? Could it be that he followed us in?

Kaguya's heart was full of doubts. She really couldn't believe that other players could get here without Li Xiaoxiao's help. And the current situation did not allow her to think too much, because the monster with a corpse full of ulcers had already thrown [Teacher] away, and then a twisted wave came from its body, and a blood-red color began to appear around it. .

Buzz——

This time, it was Tang Yuan who resisted the attack of the core obsession, but directly faced the attack of the red moon level monster, which undoubtedly brought a great burden to her, and her entire face turned pale in an instant. . Obviously the next move will cause him to be defeated on the spot.

Bang! Bang!

The next moment, two suppressive bombs appeared out of thin air in the ancestral hall and bombarded the strange thing.

[Mr. Du], who was hit in the body, almost immediately became sluggish and could not continue to attack. Gao Hai, who used Kaguya's perception to confirm the identity of this core obsession, continued to resist the front line on the frontal battlefield after remotely supporting two suppressive bombs.

The most important threat has been eliminated by Gao Jun, so what happens next...

Before Kaguya could breathe a sigh of relief, she noticed the appearance of another aura. This time the aura is not a strange thing, it seems to be human, but it seems to be mixed with something else, showing a very distorted situation.

"Oh...help me..."

The sound of gasping was intermittent, full of unbearable pain.

"Help me...please...oh oh...save me..."

The one who appeared in front of the three players at this time was the player named [Chen Qiucai] who claimed to like gambling.

His face emerged from the wall, and his body also followed through the wall, as if emerging from the mud little by little, with a strong sticky feeling and a weird chill.

The face was covered with blood, the skin was torn, and some kind of black dust particles could be seen mixed in the skin.

Kaguya remembered this person.

Moreover, she had a very deep impression of this person, even though she had not seen him very much. She only heard descriptions of him from Gao Hai and Hayasaka last week.

The reason why he will remember the other party is also very simple, that is because the other party attacked and dismembered Hayasaka when he was three years old, and almost killed his little maid. So even though she had never seen the other party, Kaguya firmly remembered the name and the other party's appearance, and vaguely hoped that the other party would not be captured by [that thing] and unable to go back as Gao Hai guessed. Looking forward to the opportunity to find the other party and kill the other party personally.

It seems that this opportunity is still there, which is quite good.

"It's you."

From the dark wall, more things are gradually emerging.

The elbows, knees, ankles, wrists, and torso gradually took on the appearance of a complete human being.

However, on this man's body, you can clearly see that the flesh and blood at his joints have been dug out and stuffed with dark yellow paper balls. As the man completely walked out of the wall and bent down slightly, you could even see part of the dug-out spine from his back, as well as the yellow paper used to replace the filling.

At this moment, Chen Qiucai looked like he had just been fished out of a pool of blood. His clothes were soaked in blood, and the exposed flesh was bloody. There were cuts and wounds everywhere. The black debris densely distributed in the flesh and blood looked quite miserable. And his body was constantly trembling, as if there was some kind of force controlling him, making him unable to act independently, like a controlled puppet.

Speaking of which, Gao Jun did say that [Treasure Digger] may have some kind of cooperation with Lijiacun, and its exploration of the dungeon is likely to be deeper than other players from the beginning. In other words, these players who thought they could cooperate with the residents in the dungeon were actually treated as usable props and turned into consumables once the situation changed?

It really suits this kind of garbage.

"Please... help me... I am also a player... I know... the information here..."

Chen Qiucai, who was not as free and easy as Zhou Muli before, reluctantly opened his mouth and continued to ask for help from the players present, but he had already pinched a red dice in his hand.

It can be seen from the expression on the other party's face that he really did not expect that he would become like this. The confusion in his expression is like that of every player who has ever been an enemy of Gao Hai. The changes have made me increasingly confused about where I am and what is happening, which makes people want to laugh when I watch it.

{Don't hold back, deal with him directly, he is one of the members of [Treasure Diggers]! }

During the temporary spiritual link, Kaguya quickly reminded Tang Yuan and Qianhua beside her.

In action, she immediately summoned the soul-stealing bow, and a blood arrow pierced Chen Qiucai's forehead, knocking him away as his body gradually transformed into a strange object, and nailed him to the side wall of the ancestral hall.

"Ahem..."

Chen Qiucai, who spat out a mouthful of blood, opened his eyes wide and looked in shock at Kaguya, who was not far away and was the first to attack.

No, you little girl, who are you?

I didn't feel the existence of any obsession that could change my appearance. The other party should be the real face, right? But I have no impression of this face. I have never seen you before, right? Why didn't you even communicate with me and just kill me? This is not right. We have no grudges against each other, right? Who is the evil player between you and me? Players who can go all the way with the [Historian] can't be so fierce, right?

Chen Qiucai, who couldn't keep the memory of the replay, was full of confusion. He didn't understand why Kaguya killed me right away.

Of course, although he didn't understand why he had full hatred right away, he was besieged and killed by other players more than once, so he knew what he should do now. As the blood-red dice fell again, Kaguya and the others immediately felt that there was some abnormal change in the room, as if something was being guided and began to transform from the probability to the bad side.

Was the sudden appearance of blood on the ground caused by the power of this dice?

Snap!

The golden dice was thrown from Kaguya's hand, fell to the ground with a crisp sound, and stopped steadily at the position of [20].

The next moment, the abnormal changes brought about by the blood dice were instantly stopped, and even in this instant, the spiritual erosion effect shrouded in the ancestral hall began to weaken, making the three people on Kaguya's side feel that the physical and mental burden was much better.

How could this really work?

Although she did speculate whether it would work at the beginning, when she found that this trick really worked, Kaguya couldn't help but blush a little.

[20-sided golden dice] This obsession object originated from [market]. When the dice result is [20], it means that the inner judgment of the dice user is completely consistent with reality, without any difference, which is the so-called "great success" state. In this case, the dice itself will produce an unusual effect, allowing the user to obtain a certain kind of luck blessing, so that the development of the next thing can change in a direction that is beneficial to the user.

When Gao Hai usually uses this obsession, he usually uses it to judge information, so as to determine whether the current investigation ideas and deduction conclusions are correct. But from another perspective, the effect of this obsession can actually be used in reverse, that is, by letting the dice judge the conclusion that is already certain to force the dice point to be locked at [20], thereby activating the lucky effect of this obsession.

It is precisely because of this that Kaguya used the golden dice at the moment when Chen Qiucai threw the bloody dice, and used this dice to judge the conclusion that [Gao Jun has improper thoughts about Shigong Kaguya], thereby locking the dice point result at [20].

Although the specific way of taking effect is still uncertain, the blood dice obviously brought some kind of bad luck, and as the power of the golden dice took effect, the power of the two obsessions reached a state of mutual cancellation, and the effect of the golden dice was even stronger, and it could continue to provide Kaguya and others with a certain degree of protection after canceling the effect of the other party.

"This... this is impossible... actually..."

Chen Qiucai's eyes were bloodshot, and he roared unwillingly even though he was being controlled.

A candle had already appeared in Tangyuan's hand at this time, and the candle flame suddenly spread and burned fiercely, turning into a bloody flame skull that bit Chen Qiucai. When Kaguya saw that Chen Qiucai was not dead after being shot in the head by an arrow, she prepared to shoot a second arrow, not intending to give the other party a chance to breathe and recover.

However, Chen Qiucai did not sit still and wait for death. In the blink of an eye, several black dogs covered in blood appeared out of thin air and rushed towards Kaguya Tangyuan. But before these black dogs came over, Tangyuan suddenly hummed a tune, and something spread from her throat, causing the black dogs to fluctuate and unable to move. Immediately afterwards, the arrows shot by Kaguya and the flame skulls created by Tangyuan were also reduced by unknown forces.

There is an interesting saying about the confrontation between players: "Rock, Paper, Scissors". Especially for players who have reached the Red Moon level, because they have a large number of props and their comprehensive strength is relatively comprehensive, every confrontation between Red Moon players is a game of rock-paper-scissors. No one can be sure whether the obsessions and blessing power used by each other in the next second can just restrain the opponent's means and eliminate them. Everyone can only keep making moves, constantly dissolving the opponent's moves, and looking for the opponent's weaknesses in the continuous mutual testing.

In an instant, various flashes, skulls, bloody and twisted things appeared and disappeared in the small ancestral hall. The power of curses and erosion repeatedly impacted back and forth. The ancestral hall, which had become dark due to the loss of light source, was even a little light polluted for a while. Obviously, although he was already in a controlled state, Chen Qiucai was still able to respond actively to a certain extent. Therefore, after Tangyuan and Kaguya showed signs of wanting to kill him, he began to fight desperately, and desperately took out all the means he could take out.

10 seconds, 20 seconds, 30 seconds...

This extremely strange confrontation on the screen soon lasted for more than a minute. With the use of various obsessions, both sides had a lot of consumption, but the victory and defeat, life and death, were not decided. Neither Tangyuan Huiye nor Chen Qiucai suffered fatal injuries.

Tsk, can't two people attack together and replace each other immediately?
