The Trial Game of Life

It was almost dawn, and Tang Cuo followed the patrol back to the dormitory.He didn't deliberately challenge the dungeon setting, because he felt that the dungeon gave too few clues, and it was weird and absurd from the beginning to the end, and many things had nothing to do with each other.

For example, the peach tree and the school signboard that made him feel strange, and the photo of the school belle, the ceremony for the retreat of the social animals, too scattered.

After returning to the dormitory, he put the peach blossom branches in a vase and placed them on the table by the window.His bed is by the window, as long as he lies on the bed, the vase and the signboard of "Meng Gui Academy" outside the window are all in sight.

The patrol captain did not disappoint him, and soon sent him the information of those "dead ghosts". "Dead ghost", dead ghost, just like the word "ghost talent", is too apt to describe.

This copy inspired Tang Cuo's unprecedented sense of humor.

According to the data, these people are all of pure Yin horoscopes, born in cloudy years and moons and moons.Tang Cuo looked at it for a while, and suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and found out Li Haoshuai's birthday, and found that he turned out to be a pure yin character.

Is it such a coincidence?

Tang Cuo squinted his eyes. The sky was bright at this time, and the ghost friends who were still clamoring for fear just now were lying on the bed and ready to fall asleep, and the will-o’-the-wisps that were rising everywhere on the campus were gradually extinguished, only the signboard of "Meng Ghost Academy" was still lit with.

The combing ghost came out of the bathroom after applying the mask, and closed the curtains with a swish, and the dormitory was dark again.

"Sleep, I'm asleep, we've already performed rituals, that person will definitely not come to us, it's more important to sleep, I won't be afraid of anything when I fall asleep, and my skin needs to rest..." the hair-comb ghost muttered, also Back to his bed.

Tang Cuo didn't speak, just lay down on the bed with the crowd, but his eyes were still staring at the peach blossoms on the table, thoughtful.

The dormitory was quiet, and soon there were only the breathing of the ghost friends and the sound of the faucet dripping from the bathroom.

"Tick."

"Tick."

The head of the faucet is broken.

The footsteps in the corridor seem to be nothing, and the ghostly dream language seems to be a baby crying, echoing infinitely in the empty corridor.Tang Cuo waited and waited, waiting for someone under the bed to appear. At first his consciousness was still clear, but then gradually blurred until he fell asleep.

Falling asleep seemed to only happen for a moment, but when he opened his eyes again, Tang Cuo found that it was already dark outside.He jerked open the curtains, looked at the college's signboard that was still lit outside the window, raised his hand and rubbed the center of his brows, and began to wonder if he had fallen asleep, and whether everything in front of him was an illusion.

But the peach blossom branches on the table are still there, which seems to be true again.

Hair-combing ghosts, drowning ghosts, etc. also woke up one after another. Tang Cuo didn't hesitate, opened the door and walked out.As soon as he arrived in the corridor, a familiar scream sounded.

There are no exceptions for male and female dormitories.

The most recent screams were in the dormitory next door. Tang Cuo rushed in and found that there was one dead inside, still in the same death shape, with the same peach blossom branch.

Several other roommates said that they fell asleep and found nothing.

This is not right.

It's not right.

So far, no ghost has seen the murderer. He came and went without a trace, leaving almost no trace except the first half footprint.

Tang Cuo looked at the female ghost dormitory opposite through the window again. Seeing the ghostly shadows, he turned and ran downstairs.

He ran into yesterday's patrol captain downstairs again.

The two looked at each other, and without saying much, the patrol captain was about to run upstairs again.Tang Cuo suddenly grabbed him and asked an irrelevant question, "The school's signboard is broken, why don't you fix it?"

Patrol Captain: "Huh?"

He scratched his head again, wondering why Tang Cuo asked this question, but he couldn't answer it himself, as if this was an unsolvable answer.

Tang Cuo stopped asking, turned and ran towards the teaching building with the signboard.

But that teaching building is obviously very close, yet very far away.Tang Cuo ran for several minutes. He should have arrived early tomorrow. When he looked up, the signboard seemed to be still in its original position, untouched.

The so-called Wangshan ran dead horse.

If this continues, no matter how long he runs, he will never reach the position where the signboard is.

This copy is really weird.

Tang Cuo quickly called up the system panel and glanced at it.Regardless of whether he really slept all day, the time has passed, and all his ultimate moves have finally been cooled down.

This is easy to do.

Tang Cuo took out the ivy badge without thinking.

[Teleportation], the engraved skill of Qingteng Badge, allows the player to instantly transfer to any place within 24 meters around him, without any skill restrictions, and the cooling time is [-] hours.

Not subject to any skill restrictions, and it turned out that he was not restricted by dungeons either. Tang Cuo found himself downstairs in that building.

Looking up, the signboard stands on the edge of the roof.

Three minutes later, Tang Cuo finally arrived at the signboard.That is the LED light tube welded on the steel frame, and the switch is just under the steel frame. The anti-dog next to the word "Meng" is not lit, and it is not broken, but the first switch in the row is off.

In a campus full of metaphysics, the only thing that follows scientific principles appears, so this must be the key.

Tang Cuo turned on the switch without hesitation, and the side of the dog was lit up. The dazzling white light instantly blurred Tang Cuo's eyes, making him close them subconsciously.

When he opened his eyes again, he was lying on the bed again.

where is this?

The lights in the room were not turned on, but there was a faint blue light coming from the front, which was the light of the TV.The hostess was speaking fluently, broadcasting the latest news heavily: "Recently, a new victim has been added to the serial murder case in our city..."

Tang Cuo sat up suddenly, staring at the TV screen in front of him, and saw familiar faces.Although the program mosaiced the victim, it can be judged from the general facial outline and figure that the chief security officer and the seven dead female ghosts were among them.

what happened?

Tang Cuo immediately turned on the light. Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the photo frame on the bedside table, took it over and saw several familiar figures.The hair-combing ghost, the drowning ghost and other ghost friends in the dormitory hooked up with him, so close.

In the room, the stinky socks that hadn't been washed in time, and the photos of actresses hanging on the wall seemed to correspond to the things in the dormitory of the Ghost Academy.On the small square table in front of the TV, there are even white candles and Buddhist beads similar to the ceremony of "community animal retreat".

Tang Cuo frowned, got out of bed with bare feet, walked to the only window in the room, opened the curtain with a "shua", and saw the neon sign on the roof of a building not far away at first sight.

Sentence dog paradise.

If you guessed correctly, it should be Dog Paradise, and the first word "Anti-dog" is not lit.

Could it be that everything in Ghost Academy is a dream?

Is this copy satirizing the routine of domestic horror movies? When everything is unexplainable, the protagonist is either crazy or dreaming.

Tang Cuo turned around again, and found Li Haoshuai's ID card after rummaging through boxes and cabinets. The birthday was also the same.Looking down, there is a shadow under his feet, he is not dead yet.

If dreams are a reflection of reality, then Tangcuo, like other victims of serial murders, is a potential target for the killer.There are candles, prayer beads and other items in the room, which are simple exorcism rituals he performed out of fear.

Is there a ghost in this dungeon?

Tang Cuo fell into contemplation for a moment, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that this dungeon was a bit weird, but despite the weird coat, just judging from the title of the mission——

There is someone under the bed!

The moment the alarm bell rang, a cold hand suddenly grabbed Tang Cuo's ankle from behind.The chill ran up from the ankle along the skin, instantly making the scalp numb.

Tang Cuo's reaction was not unpleasant. He drew out the sword of judgment and stabbed back, but he couldn't break free with his ankle.That hand pulled hard, and Tang Cuo fell to the ground, and only then did he see the face of the "comer".

It's a ghost!

more than one!

The drowned ghost with dripping water, the hanged ghost with a rope around his neck, the ghost with a big hole in his stomach leaking out his intestines, the starving ghost with a sallow face and a pair of eyes staring at Tang Cuo with his mouth open, countless ghosts have come from Crawling out from under the bed, he rushed towards Tang Cuo with bared teeth and claws.

"Crack!" The lights above his head flickered a few times, and he simply stopped working.

On the TV, the serious news broadcast has turned into anecdotal gossip, "Because the murderer has not been arrested so far, and the victim died in a strange way, many netizens have opened their minds, speculating that this serial murder case is related to ghosts. This reminds everyone, don’t be feudal and superstitious..."

Fucking feudal superstition.

Tang Cuo hastily summoned the Holy Light Shield, barely blocking the hala from the starving ghost, but his ankle was still scratched by the ghost's claws with several bloodstains.

But ghosts are omnipotent through walls and into the ground, and the holy light shield can only protect one side, but not the surroundings.The black ghost figure was like a tide, and soon filled most of the room, constantly squeezed, and kept rushing towards Tang Cuo, baring its teeth and claws.

Wails, whispers, and strange laughter, like waves hitting the shore, hit his eardrums, depriving him of the air he needed to live.

Those ghost figures even squeezed each other, and gradually the faces and limbs of all the ghosts began to distort and deform. The only thing that remained unchanged was the movement of jumping towards Tangcuo.

Tang Cuo used the holy light shield as a barrier, and used fireball and light spells with the sword of judgment, and the living space was still continuously compressed.Moreover, he saw ghosts constantly crawling out from under the bed, and the floor of the room was a mixture of blood and water, occasionally mixed with some unknown objects, which made people sick.

The gathering of too many ghosts also caused the temperature in the room to drop sharply. In just a short while, ice flowers had condensed on the glass, and Tang Cuo could even see the hot air exhaled from his mouth.

Can't stay here any longer.

Tang Cuo broke through the wall decisively and didn't even bother to walk through the door.As soon as he left, all the ghosts swarmed up, covering the corridor in darkness, chasing after him.

The corridor was wider, and the voices of countless ghosts gathered together, even forming an echo.That was the coldest mental attack.

Tang Cuo only felt that his celestial spiritual cover was opened, and countless ghosts were blowing cold wind on his brain, and those whispers that did not vibrate his vocal cords were like cold fingertips touching nerves, forcing him to go as fast as he could.

There is no elevator in this apartment building, and its height is about the same as the dormitory building of Ghost Academy.Tang Cuo turned a corner and went down the stairs. After going down the stairs, he didn't stop at the next floor and kept running down.

After running two floors, he stopped suddenly and looked at the corridor next to the stairs.

The corridor was empty, except for a voice-activated light near the corridor that was on.The corpses of several moths were lying in the lampshade, and the new flying insects bumped into the lampshade nervously. With the sound of "pop, pop", the voice-activated light went off and on again.

The ghost was chasing after him, Tang Cuo continued to run down, but—the ghost hit the wall.

The building was empty, without a single resident.

He came down from the fourth floor, and when he walked through the door of the room, he clearly saw 419, the same house number as his dormitory.But no matter how he walked, he couldn't reach the first floor.

Then jump out of the window.

Tang Cuo turned around and kicked open a door to break in, went straight to the window sill, opened the window and jumped down, all in one go.

As a result, the second floor became the fourth floor.

"Bang!" Tang Cuo slammed heavily on the roof of a car parked downstairs, smashing the car out of a big hole.But the height of the fourth floor is nothing to him now. He pulled back his strength and stood still, but suddenly felt that his eyes went dark.

Opening his eyes again, he woke up from the bed again.

Quickly got out of bed, went to the window and opened the curtains—a dog paradise.

Is he still in the dream?

Thinking of this, he suddenly turned around, his eyes staring at the bed.

At the same time, Crimson was tortured by Rong Yi for 3 minutes and completely lost the ability to resist. Jin Cheng asked Wen Xiaoming to tie her up with a prop rope and temporarily put her in custody.

The onlookers had seen the true power of the big names on the red list, so they didn't dare to talk nonsense and retreated one after another.

You guys finally have time to sit down and have a good chat.

But before everyone could turn the scene, Jin Cheng focused on Jiang He, "You hid the phylactery, right? What exactly is that dungeon about?"

Jiang He recovered after being seriously injured, and his mood fell to the bottom because of the crimson matter. Hearing Jin Cheng ask this question, he couldn't help asking, "Are you asking about the phylactery, or Tang Cuo?"

Jin Cheng raised his eyebrows, "What do you think?"

Jiang He couldn't help showing a wry smile, but quickly restrained himself, "Don't worry, if it's him, the dungeon won't be able to trap him. As for the specific content, it's a long explanation, and even if you know it, it won't be of much help. The phylactery is actually hidden in a conspicuous place, and if he can pass the level, he will definitely be able to see it."

At this time, Chi Yan finally arrived late.When Jin Cheng saw the signal flare just now, he was worried that Tang Cuo was in a hurry, so Chi Yan fell behind. Fortunately, everyone was attracted by the battle in the central area, and no one noticed him as a little guy.

When Leng Miao saw him, he remembered what he had heard from Yan Ye when he glanced at Area B in a hurry.He frowned and looked at Jin Cheng, "Have you found the second movement?"

Jin Cheng looked around, "This is not a place to talk."

The author has something to say:

Inspired by "Inception"

In the currently known plot, the academy's signboard is probably equivalent to the spinning top in the movie, the so-called anchor effect.If you are interested, you can watch Mingzhen's "Escape from the Nameless Island", it is very good.
