A retired swordsman who opened a shop in the end [Quick Transmigration]
Chapter 83 Who is the Lord of Nightmare City?The movements of the settlers...
The commotion in the auditorium has never stopped, and even began to intensify.
The emotions released by Bai Qingxian in a single thought triggered a natural disaster that had not occurred in Nightmare City for decades.
In the auditorium is the routine "fun" every once in a while, and outside the auditorium is the "natural disaster" that no soul has ever seen. At this time, how will the souls of the evil ghost alliance choose?
The answer to the question seems obvious.
All the souls began to rush out of the auditorium desperately!
heavy rain,
It's pouring rain!
The sound of rain they felt in the auditorium just now was not their illusion, it was really raining heavily in Nightmare City!I don't know if it's the color of the rain itself, or because of the influence of the blood moon in the sky, the rain falling from the sky has a light red color, like diluted blood.
But what's really scary is that the rain is getting heavier and heavier.
The accompanying wind became more and more violent, sweeping all the unfixed things around, and some debris and stones from the dilapidated playground even flew to the face of the soul in front of the auditorium, causing severe pain.
When all the souls in the auditorium rushed out, the rain in Nightmare City had turned into an unimaginable torrential rain. The rain hit the Nightmare City buildings and all kinds of glass and awnings. You can feel the pain of this time just by sound. Stormy!
"It's really raining..."
The rain was so heavy that all the ghosts were drenched as soon as they left the auditorium, but none of the souls thought of taking shelter from the rain.
Instead, more and more souls joined the rain-drenched team, raising their heads to look up at the sky where the red rain was crazily falling.
Even the crimson moon that occupies half of the field of vision looks a little foggy at the moment.
Of course, it may also be that the rain has already dazzled the souls looking up at the sky.
"What's going on here?" The leader of the Evil Ghost Alliance also stood among the evil ghosts.
If it was on other occasions, other members of the Evil Ghost League must not dare to approach the leader, and would stand a few meters away from the leader with respect and fear.
But now everyone's attention was attracted by the torrential rain. Standing among the crowd of evil spirits, the leader's coat with luxurious fur was completely soaked, and he looked a bit embarrassed.
Qin Yan, who was standing next to the lord, just looked at all this with cold eyes. He knew how much this person hated unexpected things, and how unbearable it was for things to go beyond his control, so when he asked, "What's the matter?" "What's going on", he should even have the desire to kill ghosts.
"Maybe the city lord is finally tired of you deliberately tossing newcomers over and over again." When Qin Yan said this, he looked at Brother Qi at the side, and then made a gesture behind him that the other party could see.
After seeing Deputy City Lord Qin's instructions, Brother Qi took advantage of the chaos to escape from the crowd and went back to the auditorium, although his expression was a little hesitant.
When everyone was feeling the torrential rain and the misty red moon, Qi Ge went back to the backstage of the auditorium, and went back to the preparation room where he and Bai Qingxian first met. In the preparation room were eight beautiful makeup artists. There are five dressing tables with lights on, and five different bloody handprints on the mirror.
These dressing tables are the props for Bai Qingxian and other participating souls to register their identities.
And in another corner of the preparation room, there are two things that look like old computers. One of the lit screens shows the modeling of a house. This kind of thing appears here strangely and inexplicably. There is really a sense of disobedience in the world.
But this should be the root of the newcomer level.
On the other screen that was lit was the same real-time picture as the auditorium outside.
"Why don't you go to see the rain?" A voice appeared outside the preparation room.
Brother Qi turned around and saw Daegu standing there with a hideous wound on his neck.
"This level is unsolvable." Chigo looked back to the screen, "The fifth task is to let them find the ghost in the team, and the tenth task will require them to take out their hearts, even if they If they are fragmented until No. 20 missions, that mother-in-law will kill them one by one with the bone tools in her hand."
"There is no chance of survival?"
"No." Chico shook his head.
"That's too cruel." Daegu said, then looked at Brother Qi who started to operate the computer, "What are you going to do now?"
"Let them out. If you do this kind of thing secretly at this time, the probability of being discovered should be much smaller." Qi Ge said without turning his head.
"Indeed, the plot development of Nightmare City today is much more interesting than your plot setting." Daegu said, shaking his head. I took action and started to come to the school, saying that I want to negotiate with the leader."
"Immigrants? They can't help it?" Chi Ge also looked back in surprise.
"Is it that surprising? Ever since the group of settlers occupied the hospital, they were destined to provoke us." Daegu said, scratching the wound on his thick neck, "Compared to this, I am more surprised that you would want to Taking advantage of the chaos to release the newcomer, are you such a kind person?"
"There is no kindness or malice, I am just an ordinary programmer who obeys orders and completes the work." Qi Ge's fingers danced on the keyboard, "I have no feelings for the newcomers, I only care about whether my plot can attract those guys in the auditorium. interests. But sometimes, in order to live more comfortably, I will fall to the more favorable side like a weed.”
"How to say?"
"I listened to the lord's words before because he had the unique right to speak in Nightmare City, and even the mysterious lord of the city never objected to his opinion." Chigo continued, "But you also saw the torrential rain outside. , the city lord is not a puppet, the core of controlling this nightmare city is still the city lord after all, and the deputy city lord Qin was the deputy city lord personally selected by the city lord back then."
"Just now Deputy City Lord Qin made a gesture to let me release the newcomer, so I followed the trend." Brother Qi frowned as he said, "I hope I didn't choose the wrong direction for this weed."
"What you said makes sense." Daqiu actually began to ponder, "This torrential rain means... the city lord who has been hiding in the woods has finally started to take over the affairs of Nightmare City?"
"I hope so." Chico finally pressed the Enter key.
That is, the moment Qige pressed the Enter key, Bai Qingxian and the other newcomers standing in the lobby on the first floor felt the changes around them. The lighted candles became weaker and dimmer.
Eventually all the candlelight disappeared, and the entire hall was plunged into complete darkness.
"What's going on?" Chen Heqing shouted, and asked the question Bai Qingxian wanted to ask.
Boss Bai didn't know what happened at this moment. His initial plan was to create chaos in the outside world, and then summon the sword directly on the spot, use the sword outside this space to directly break the closed space, and find a way to leave. here.
But I didn't expect that the whole level world suddenly turned dark as if the power was cut off, so dark that I couldn't see my fingers.
"Looks like it's over."
As an old voice sounded, a little candle light lit up in the darkness.
Everyone looked at the light in the darkness, and found that it was an old woman holding a white candle. Because half of her face was burned by the flames, she looked even more hideous against the candlelight.
"Every time the level ends, we will return to this dark room with the surviving newcomers." When the old woman said this, she kept looking at the newly joined Bai Qingxian.
The old woman raised the bone implement she was holding with her other hand like a crutch, and knocked it to the side, and sure enough, there was a sound of something hard hitting the wall.
Bai Qingxian also walked close to the old woman and pushed in a certain direction. They were indeed in a completely black room, but they didn't know where the exit was.
"This is not the end, it's not the official start at all!" The little girl in the candlelight pouted angrily, completely bid farewell to the weird image of the bent head in the previous level, and her speech was not as polite as before. He said, but a little irritable, "This is basically the level being interrupted, right? What's going on, do you know how long I practiced my lines for this script? How can I say that it's over when it's over?"
"I don't have any lines at all..." The female ghost in white pajamas standing aside also put down the plastic doll she was holding in her hand, and carried it directly as before entering the level, "Anyway, every time I come back here, it means I'm going to call it a day. Can I go back and rest?"
"Hey, why are you so irresponsible? Did the director say it's over?" A male voice came from the darkness, but he couldn't see who was speaking, so he could only judge the general direction.
Bai Qingxian had heard this voice before, and he also remembered that when he entered the checkpoint, besides the little girl, the female ghost and the old woman, there was also a hot-tempered male "actor", which gave people a feeling that they were not very easy to get along with.
"You've been dead for so many years, when will this actor's energy pass?" The little girl glared at the direction the "actor" spoke, "No one is more suitable for this job than you, it's a pity that even the actors who played this time None."
"..."
"Here, what's going on..." Chen Heqing couldn't react.
Yanzi and Xiang Jun were so puzzled that they didn't speak.
"This is a level to test newcomers, but whether it is the level itself or playing the 'enemy' we are all fake, just acting sets and actors."
"Actor?" Hope appeared in the eyes of both Chen Heqing and Yanzi.
"Is everything just a joke, aren't we dead yet?"
"Can we go back to the original world?"
"Are there no ghosts here at all?"
Facing all the questions from the newcomers, the little girl with the highest qualifications shouted, "Shut up!"
There was an instant silence in the room.
"There are no ghosts? Little ghost, open your eyes and take a good look. Both you and I are ghosts in this room, okay? Only people who died in the real world can appear here, understand? It's like the legendary hell! After the little girl finished speaking loudly, she saw the expressions on Chen Heqing and the others' faces clearly by the candlelight, "Although I don't know what happened outside, but..."
"Welcome to the world after death, this is Nightmare City." The little girl walked forward in the candlelight, gradually reached a dark corner, and then kicked open the door directly in front of her with a "bang", allowing the light outside to pass through. shine in.
"Is this hell?" It's impossible for a newcomer to react in a short time.
"Almost, you also know that if you continue to complete 24 missions, you will definitely die in the level again. But something seems to have happened outside that caused the interruption of the level. This is not a failure of our mission. It can only be said that you picked it up inexplicably. A ghostly life." The old lady blew out the white candle in her hand, and followed her out.
"The actors follow me back to the preparation room. If you are a newcomer, you should wait here." The little girl led everyone to a space with a red carpet outside the black room, and then opened the door of the preparation room opposite, talking to Bai Qing Xian also beckoned.
Those who follow the little girl are actors, and those who stay on the red carpet are newcomers...
"Brother Qi?" Chen Heqing looked at Bai Qingxian who was following the little girl in surprise.
"Don't make a fuss." Walking behind, the actor with rags on his body looked at Chen Heqing with smoked eyes, "Didn't you say that you have read a lot of novels? Ghost?"
"I don't know what happened outside?" When the ghosts returned to the preparation room, they found that all the handprints on the dressing table had been erased, whether it was the lamp of the dressing table or the two old computers in the corner. is closed.
Apart from them, there was no one in the preparation room.
Regardless of the newcomers following behind, they opened the doors and left the backstage of the auditorium.
When the ghosts passed through the doors, they found that the auditorium that could accommodate thousands of people had become empty, and when they looked up, there was only one person...without a soul.
"I'm waiting for you."
No, it's not that there is no one, at least Qi Ge, with a dead branch in his mouth, is still standing at the gate of the empty auditorium, watching the newcomers come out of the backstage mixed with Bai Qingxian and other actors.
"What's going on here..."
"It's time to go to a really good show." Chigo removed the dead branch from his mouth, "Those settlers asked to meet the city lord."
The emotions released by Bai Qingxian in a single thought triggered a natural disaster that had not occurred in Nightmare City for decades.
In the auditorium is the routine "fun" every once in a while, and outside the auditorium is the "natural disaster" that no soul has ever seen. At this time, how will the souls of the evil ghost alliance choose?
