Nightmare Attack

Chapter 223 Conceit

Slightly stunned for a moment, Chen Ran raised his left arm, pointed his eyes at Jiang Cheng, and gestured with an exaggerated expression: "Brother Hao wouldn't say this, would he?"

At the lower part of Chen Ran's left forearm, there was a neat wound.

It's not serious, it's about 4 to 5 centimeters long, and blood oozes out from time to time. The bright blood runs across the dusty white skin, the contrast is extremely strong, and finally gathers at the fingertips and drips to the ground.

But the man in front of him had obviously lost the ability to resist and became a lamb waiting to be slaughtered, and he was only accidentally injured a little bit by the opponent's unreasonable hand.

How come he won?
Suddenly, Chen Ran's pupils shrank suddenly, and then immediately looked at the place where the flame was placed in the center of the room.

The flames were burning fiercely, and a faint, strange fragrance filled the air.

"Heh," Chen Ran slowly lowered his arm. He squinted his eyes and looked at Jiang Cheng, who was baring his white teeth at him, and his face was full of a strange smile after a successful trick, and he couldn't help sighing, "There is a poison on the dagger. .”

"Hmm," Jiang Cheng looked at Chen Ran, who was still able to maintain his sanity, but would let himself do whatever he wanted in a while, and laughed even more abnormally, "The dagger is poisonous, but I didn't make it."

"It's Su Xiaoxiao."

"Yes," Jiang Cheng shrugged, and continued, "She's not as stupid as you think. She has also seen the mystery in the flame. The fuel contains some hallucinogenic ingredients."

"The only mistake she made was that she was too weak and was distracted from taking care of her brother. If she could hurt you with a dagger, you would be the one who was thrown on the stone plate," Jiang Cheng said with a smile: "It's so dangerous." Ah, brother dust."

The flame in the lighthouse must have something to say, otherwise those "things" in Blackstone Town would not have repeatedly emphasized.

After Liang Long disappeared, Jiang Cheng wanted to understand the mystery.

At the scene of Liang Long's disappearance, Jiang Cheng smelled a familiar fragrance.

That's right, it is the aroma produced by the burning of the milky white grease in the flame vessel of the lighthouse.

They already know that this fragrance has the effect of greatly slowing people's reactions and suppressing emotions.

If she guessed right, Liang Long secretly dug some out of the container, probably to take advantage of no one to study it, but because she was waiting alone in the hall on the first floor at night and needed to light a fire, she took out some grease and used it as fuel.

Grease is extremely flame-resistant and also provides a lot of heat.

As a result, it was such a move that by chance, the monster sleeping in the stone wall was awakened.

resulting in his being killed.

From this point of view, the purpose of those guys from Blackstone Town inciting them to light the lighthouse is clear at a glance. It is to wake up the "kind" that has been turned into stone sculptures.

Jiangcheng guessed that Liang Long just unblocked some monsters ahead of time by mistake, and if they really waited for a few days or even longer to light the lighthouse, all the sleeping stone sculptures in the hall would be revived.

In that case they must be screwed.

The body began to be paralyzed. Even though his physical fitness was far superior to that of ordinary people, Chen Ran still felt dizzy now. He was carrying it with his will, unwilling to fall down.

Strange things in nightmares really are.
Chen Ran staggered back until he hit the wall behind him, then leaned his back against the wall, slowly slid his body down, and fell to the ground.

He seemed to want to struggle a few more times, but his body no longer allowed him to do so.

"cluck"

There was a strange tooth-piercing sound in his ear, he tried his best to turn his head, and vaguely saw an abnormally distorted but extremely excited face.

The old woman poked her head out of the gap, staring greedily at the immobile Chen Ran.

It seems to be accumulating energy, more like waiting.

Like a spider sizing up a moth that has crashed into its web, struggling desperately.

The moment it stops struggling is its time to die.

"cluck"

The old woman opened her mouth, her snake-like slender scarlet tongue swirled around her blue lips, and that strange and strange sound came from her throat.

Like a dying old man with phlegm in his throat.

Combined with this sound and the old woman's current expression, it is undoubtedly a horror movie.

Jiang Cheng agrees with Chen Ran's guess. This person is very smart and skilled, but he is too conceited. If he comes up and cuts his tendons with a knife, there will be no such troubles.

As he said, this old woman is not one of the players, but a very special NPC.

The crisis in this mission comes from two aspects.

On the one hand, it is external, that is, the ghosts in Heishi Town, but according to Jiang Cheng's speculation, those ghosts cannot enter this building, and even if they step into this building, they will petrify.

This is how the stone carvings in the lobby on the first floor came about.

The other side is internal.

That is, the old woman who appeared as a "teammate".

According to the fat man, they were old women "picked up" by the sea.

If the building is imagined as a safe house against the guys in Blackstone Town, then the old woman is a threat hiding in the safe house, otherwise the players who are matched this time will be timid and stay behind closed doors.

Then the task time will be lengthened.

If the nightmares were really being manipulated by someone, or something, the deal would be unreasonable.

so.
Chen Ran's sudden voice attracted Jiang Cheng's attention again.

"Brother Hao," his voice was weak, but the frivolous feeling remained the same, and he still looked calm and calm when he was about to die.

Chen Ran squinted his eyes, his chin could barely lift a little because of lack of strength, he smiled lightly and said, "How are you going to use me?"

Number
To other people, this might just be the ramblings of a lunatic, but Jiang Cheng didn't think so. He felt that this dusty man was quite unusual, a rare guy whose thinking mode was a little bit in sync with his own.

If it were Liang Long and the others, it is estimated that they would not beg for mercy at this moment, but they would definitely emphasize repeatedly that harming teammates in nightmares would result in retribution.

Yes, and Chen Xiaomeng.

"You want to borrow my hand to kill this damn old woman?" Chen Ran asked.

Jiang Cheng touched his chin. Although the injury on his body was not fatal, any movement would cause severe pain.

"No, I won't bother you with such cheap things as killing people. What if this is really the way to leave here." Jiang Cheng said, "Wouldn't it be better to let Brother Chen escape?"

"I'm going to keep you here." After thinking for a while, he added, "I'm going to keep you here. I need to verify some things."

Jiang Cheng had been observing the old woman. She seemed to be very interested in Chen Ran, who had lost her resistance, and her tongue almost touched the latter's face.

But she never made a move, instead she kept glancing at herself with impatient eyes.
