Raise evil spirits in an infinite game

The streetlight above her head flickered, Lin Du blocked the light, stood up from the bench, and found that she was in the playground of a strange school at the moment, surrounded by cicadas' tireless shouts.

Not only that, but Lin Du found that the clothes he was wearing had also changed into the school uniforms he had seen in the video before, white shirt with plaid tie and short skirt, and he was holding a graduation photo in his hand.

In the graduation group photo, there are herself, Tang Xian, and some familiar taskers and unfamiliar faces, probably for plot tasks. The whole class only stood in two rows, with a total of about sixteen or seventeen. At the bottom of the photo, There is a line of black words printed on it.

Three-year Group F graduation group photo.

Maybe the person in this photo is the one who is going to take part in the mission this time.

In addition to the photo, there is also a child's painting on the bench. In the painting with a weird style, it is a tree that has turned into a monster, a black sky and ground, a little girl without legs, and she is spitting Bloody hands tied with colorful balloons.

System prompt: Obtain an item related to the identity plot, please hide the item, otherwise your identity may be exposed.

It was the first time Lin Du received such a weird prompt, and she had no choice but to put this painting in the storage compartment.

Probably the only thing that hasn't changed is the mobile phone, which still stays on the interface of checking text messages.

Because Colin had said beforehand that the teleportation would start within three days, Lin Du didn't panic. She reached out and stroked the tattoo on the back of her hand.

Second, find the king hidden among the players, and successfully kill the king to end the game early.

Game reminder: No matter in any state, anyone who actively reveals his identity will be wiped out immediately. It should be noted that at any time after the start of the game, any special props brought in, except for the original props in the current world, will be locked as unavailable state.

Lin Du had heard of King Game, which is a kind of poker game, usually used to play in party interaction, the person who draws the king status can order any number of other players to do anything, the king has the highest power, the order cannot Rebellion, generally speaking, the identity of the king is randomly selected after each order ends, but in the current situation, it is very likely that the same king will always issue orders that must be executed for everyone.

Tian Ran didn't know whether he was alive or dead. If he was a ghost, what would happen if he obeyed the command of a ghost?

It's useless to think about it now, since Lin Du has received the order, he already intends to act according to the order.

The school is very large, and there are even artificial lakes and stone bridges that are not commonly seen in middle school campuses on the inside. Although it is difficult to distinguish directions in the unfamiliar and dark campus, Lin Du quickly found the signpost, and the No. [-] teaching building is close in front of him. Lin Du saw that a group of students had gathered in the open space ahead.

The scene of this dungeon is a school, so all the taskers are assigned as students, but some of them are already middle-aged, and some of them have strengthened their muscle strength, and their strong bodies like King Kong are stuffed in small school uniforms , The appearance of wearing a uniform is really not flattering.

It seemed that the contrast was too strong, Lin Du saw Tang Xian who was handsome and outstanding at a glance, but his complexion was not very good, maybe he was scared.

Tang Xian turned his head, just in time to see Lin Du who was rushing over, he took two quick steps to meet him: "Have you received any strange text messages?"

"Yes, I received a text message from the dead Tian Ran." Lin Du added, "Just after you called me, I read the news and was sent here."

"How is this possible? I never called you." Tang Xian said in surprise. "I also received a text message from a dead person, the one I've always wanted to resurrect..."

Only then did Lin Du realize that something was wrong. There could only be one king, not more than one, so these people who sent text messages must be the same person, or a ghost, who disguised himself as various people and sent messages to all taskers text message.

"Why don't you go in?" Lin Du continued to ask.

"Didn't you notice that this is not the teaching building in the video tape." Tang Xian raised his arm and looked at the time. "It's 7:45, and we still have to wait 15 minutes before entering."

Tang Xian was right. Although the teaching building in front of him was also very dilapidated, it was slightly better than in the video.

At this moment, more and more people gathered in the open space, and the actual number has exceeded ten. Lin Du guessed that they were probably cannon fodder NPCs assigned by the system

At the same time, Lin Du also saw the blond Colin among these people. His expression was calm and calm, and he didn't feel nervous because of the abnormal situation. It seemed that he didn't wear the pair of black gloves on his hands because he had known the instruction on item restrictions for a long time. .

Beside him is the doctor of the black-clothed organization that he had seen on the screen before. His school uniform was covered with a layer of protective clothing. The style was exactly the mecha power suit that had created the highest amount of money at the auction a few days ago. I don't know how many talents were squeezed in exchange for such a set of clothes.

The doctor was a little forgetful and didn't recognize her and Tang Xian.

"Okay, everyone is here, students." A small boy with long hair seemed to be the leader here, he stood on the steps and said loudly, "Tonight's spirit exploration adventure has begun, now please accept Invitation, I will pull everyone into a group, and the king will issue new orders after each task is completed, and we will definitely survive."

As soon as he finished speaking, the phone in Lin Du's pocket vibrated immediately, and when he opened it again, a chat group interface appeared inside.

Each classmate has a corresponding serial number in front of the name, and her serial number is exactly the fifth when she received the text message before. The profile picture of the group leader is that long-haired boy, and his name is Ishida Ryo.

About fifteen or six high school students walked into the teaching building in a bustling manner.

-

old school building.

In the candlelit classroom, four "students" were writing hard.

It seemed that they heard the movement outside, and one of them carefully opened the gap in the curtain.He just happened to see a group of people humbling into the No. [-] teaching building from far away.

"It's the tasker, princess. The rescue sent by the association has arrived." He deliberately lowered his voice, and his trembling voice revealed joy.

"Close the curtains and sit back quickly. Do you want to die?" The blond boy sitting on the chair had a gloomy face, his golden eyebrows furrowed fiercely, and he reached out and broke the pencil in his hand.

"Yes yes yes," he said, closing the gap in the curtains.

The faint light was immediately blocked, but it seemed a bit late. There was the sound of metal rubbing against the ground in the corridor, as if someone was dragging a heavy chain.

Not long after, bloody handprints appeared on the glass outside the classroom door, or white or rotten faces were stuck to the glass. The originally hard glass seemed to suddenly turn into cloth, with strange shapes constantly protruding. To rush into the classroom.

-

The moment he stepped into the gate, Lin Du finally heard a system prompt, and the game officially started.

As soon as they entered the door, everyone saw a red film covering the wooden stairs leading to the second floor.When one of the high school students wanted to pass the exam and touch it, he was grabbed by a tall tasker behind him.

Although these plot characters probably cannot escape death, they must die in a useful place, not sacrificed at the beginning.

Not long after, a message popped up in the chat group where all members were muted.

The game of kings is underway.

Order [-] has been completed, confirmed by all staff, and no one has been punished.

Order [-]: Please find a candle in the first-year group A~F classrooms within one hour, hold the candle, keep the candle alive and reach the sixth floor during the process, and successfully place the candle in the third-year group K Tasks are considered completed in the classroom.

It doesn't sound like a difficult task, and all the plot tasks have been activated one after another. Perhaps in their eyes, this is just a simple test of courage.

The tall and powerful missionaries did not stop them this time, their eyes were cold, as if they were looking at a group of dead people.

"Shall we go find candles too?" one of the thin women asked Colin.

"No, just wait."

All the questers stayed where they were, and most of the people who could be invited by Colin were senior questers who had experience in ghost dungeons several times. They knew that a disagreement in this difficulty would trigger a dead end, and the only way not to trigger a dead end , is to use people to try.

Until you try to figure it out, no one knows whether finding the candle will trigger the dead end, or extinguishing the candle will kill you.

The doors of each classroom were not locked, and the excited voices of the characters in the plot kept coming from inside.

"Let's look for it too. If it's too abnormal, the characters in the plot will notice it, causing distrust, and the next task will become troublesome." After Colin finished speaking, he turned and walked into one of the classrooms.

Lin Du watched this scene quietly until Tang Xian patted her on the shoulder beside him.

"Are you okay? If you are afraid, follow me." Tang Xian comforted.

"It's okay, it's just a little strange..." Lin Du followed Tang Xian into a classroom at the end of the corridor.

Until now, she has not been prompted by her bloodline to materialize ghost-hunting props. Could it be that there are no ghosts here at all?Or is the bloodline affected by the dungeon rules and cannot be used temporarily?After the item grid was locked, Lin Du didn't panic too much, but now the bloodline can't be used, which makes her a little uneasy.

The blackboard in the classroom has not been wiped off. There are some simple math problems on it, which seem to be homework left by the teacher. The lower right corner of the blackboard is marked with today's class list, and there are colored chalks next to the class list. There are a few little monsters, there are awards hanging on one side of the wall, and a water dispenser is placed on the ground near the window. It doesn't look strange. The only strange thing is that the on-duty students didn't wipe the blackboard or clean up.

Tang Xian found a lighter and a candle from a student's desk drawer, and handed one to Lin Du.

"We'll go out and light it up."

When there are too many people, there will always be troubles. The girl holding a candle outside and walking up the stairs accidentally tripped over the person behind her and fell down the stairs. She didn't know what she saw. In the candlelight, she was extremely frightened. Climbed back, but the next moment the whole body was cut into several pieces, and the body disappeared into the hollow of the vortex.

All this was too fast. At the moment when the vortex appeared, all the taskers were under strong coercion, and they were firmly nailed to the spot and could not move. After a few seconds, only blood spatters remained on the stairs, from the beginning to the end, As if someone had pressed the mute button, the dead classmate disappeared, although he opened his mouth to show a screaming expression, but did not make any sound.

And the classmate who tripped him backed up in fright, and was about to fall to the ground.

Suddenly a black shadow wrapped around his body, making the student stand on the ground at an angle of 45 degrees. The shadow slowly pushed him back to the normal standing posture, and he stood there in horror Panting, the candle in his hand was swaying by his breath, and he quickly turned his head away in fright.

"Thank you for saving me, Yushan."

"You're welcome." The tasker who just rescued him was an ordinary young man with a crew cut, and the system seemed to have some kind of ability to turn the lineage of the tasker into an "ordinary event" so that the plot staff didn't doubt it, so even though the shadow Entangling, the tasker didn't have any more fright and suspicion.

Ishida Ryo had already walked up to the second floor. He turned his head to see the situation behind, and said seriously: "Nakamura, be careful. Once this game starts, you must not disobey the order."

"Yes, I know."

But at the same time, Lin Du also got a useful piece of information, the bloodline can be used, so why, she didn't have the ability to activate the bloodline even though there were ghosts just now?

"Be careful on the steps, it seems that extinguishing the candle is a dead end." Tang Xian looked pale, and after lighting the lighter several times, the white candle glowed faintly.He wiped the sweat from his forehead, his eyelashes kept trembling, and cautiously warned: "When holding it, use this rag to drag it, be careful that the wax oil will burn your hands, and don't fall down."

Lin Du chuckled.

Tang Xian seemed terribly frightened, and even came to tell her not to be afraid. This place is the least courageous, and Tang Xian is probably the only quester who doesn't have the ability to catch ghosts.

Even if she couldn't use props, Lin Du could still summon ghosts from the evil spirit library to protect herself. Although she didn't see what happened just now, she wouldn't make such low-level mistakes.

Due to a delay, Tang Xian and Lin Du walked last. On the stairs in front of them, they could see all the students holding candles carefully.

There is no light in the entire classroom, so it can only be illuminated by a weak candle. It is dark all around, and the speed of progress is not fast. When the wooden stairs are stepped on, they make creaking sounds.

Suddenly, Ryo Ishida, who was at the front, stopped.

"Have you ever heard the legend about No. [-] teaching building? I heard that after dark, there will be eighteen steps on a certain floor here. For some reason, the steps in the school are all seventeen, but if If you accidentally step on the eighteenth floor, you will be pulled into that world, and you will never be able to get out again."

"Wuuu, stop talking." The female classmate behind him couldn't help but screamed and reached out to hit him on the back.

"Hahaha, I won't say it anymore. Isn't this to tell a story to ease the atmosphere? Why are you angry? Girls are really cheapskate." Ishida Liang laughed and continued to walk upstairs.

He didn't expect that he could still laugh when his classmate died just now.Lin Du felt a little weird, as if he expected something, he took out the graduation photo from his pocket.

In the photo, the seat of the female classmate who just died has been vacated...they have probably been erased by the copy of the memory of the classmate's death just now.

"Hey, you also have this graduation photo?" Tang Xian asked curiously when he saw what she was holding. "Don't we all have one?"

"Maybe." Lin Du looked at Tang Xian and changed the subject. "We are too far behind, let's go."

The identity item she got was a painting. Lin Du guessed that all the taskers here probably got the identity item. Although they don't know what it is for, it's better not to ask, in case Tang Xian's thing will It would not be good to expose Tang Xian's camp and make others want to kill him.

Although their voices were very low, it was difficult to guarantee that there would be strengthening directions such as monitoring in this group of taskers. We should try our best to be careful. Even if we wanted to exchange information with Tang Xian, this was definitely not a suitable place.

The faces of the taskers are not very good-looking. Since these words are spoken by the characters in the plot, they must be real. There is another dead end that needs to be paid attention to.

Originally, it was just to protect the candle carefully, but now every step I take, I have to count the steps under my feet.

After passing through the third floor, a gust of cool wind blew over slowly. The candles in everyone's hands dangled and were about to be extinguished. Everyone stopped again, and some people who were walking in front took a few steps back in panic.

Tang Xian and Lin Du were originally at the end, but now they are in the middle.

"The windows at both ends of the corridor on the fourth floor were open. The student on duty was too sloppy and forgot to close the windows when he left," said a character in the plot.

"No, we would have blown out the candles in the past, but we couldn't move forward without closing the windows." Ryo Ishida scratched his hair with a headache on his face.

Colin turned his head and said to the tasker who had just demonstrated his ability: "Can you close the far window?"

Yushan shook his head, and said in a deep voice, "No, the distance is too far, and it has exceeded the farthest range that the shadow can control."

"Let me try it." The one who spoke was a female tasker with a sexy figure. Even wearing a school uniform, she couldn't hide her mature and seductive charm. She grabbed a few snakes from the void, and then put the long snake Throw it on the stairs ahead.

Her studded mouth kept opening and closing, and the two snakes moved, swaying and sliding towards the distant window.

Lin Du judged: It seems to be a tasker with some kind of snake control ability. She should have a virtual space similar to the evil spirit library to store the creatures that need to be summoned.

The two snakes successfully completed the task of closing the window, but the moment the wind disappeared, it became a bit cold here.

"Great, fortunate to have you, Yang Jia." Shi Tianliang praised her and successfully let everyone know her name.

"Then keep going." Yang Jia smiled politely, suddenly her face became stiff, but soon returned to normal.

The snake she sent disappeared. Originally, the window had been closed, so there would be no more danger, but the two snakes disappeared so abruptly when she turned her head to talk to Ishida Ryo.

Yang Jia's suspicious eyes fell on Shi Tianliang, this character in the plot may be a bit weird.

The danger was lifted, and everyone continued to move forward, but when they reached the fifth floor, the staircase broke down in the middle.

"What's wrong here?" Ishida Liang was surprised, "No, we have to move on. I remember that a class in the second grade of the cultural festival last month used wooden boards in a performance. Let's go back to the fourth floor and look for it separately. If you can find the boards, you can build a path through the broken stairwell, and you will probably be able to pass..."

After Ishida Ryo finished speaking, the plot tasks have already started to take action.

In fact, the broken piece couldn't stop the taskers at all, they could go directly to the fifth floor.

A group of people looked at Ke Lin. He may not be the strongest here, but he is considered the financial boss. He should naturally ask what to do.

Colin said with a sullen face, "Go back, we can't leave the plot characters behind, without their reminders, we have no way of knowing what will happen next."

What Ke Lin said made sense, but because it was a little late, when he returned to the fourth floor, those plot characters had disappeared in each classroom.

The moment he stepped on the fourth floor, Lin Du finally received a long-lost reminder.

System prompt: The blood sucker sensed the source of yin energy, and randomly materialized the capture props.

Probably, something is coming.

Tang Xian grabbed Lin Du's arm and whispered in her ear, "I counted the stairs again when I went downstairs, this time it's the eighteenth floor."
