Kawaharuko's heartbeat was thundering and her whole body was numb. The brain is like a ball of mush, unable to think at all.

"Shh, be quiet."

A somewhat familiar voice came from behind.

Kawaharuko 's voice suddenly returned from hell to heaven.

It’s the people inside the players.

The flashlight that fell to the ground shines straight ahead. Kawaharuko knelt on the ground, and Wei Chao covered his mouth from behind.

Where the light shines, a person can be vaguely seen standing on the stairs, facing them.

His location is at the junction of the stairs from the 2nd to 3rd floors.

It was an empty turn.

Wei Chao's mind moved, and the brain light screen appeared on his left side.

He adjusted the light screen of his smart brain to the darkest level, stared at the ghost on the floor, and typed quickly on the light screen with his left hand.

"Don't move if anything happens, let alone make a sound. Do you understand?"

Kawaharuko nodded.

Wei Chao slowly released his cover of Kawaharuko 's mouth and nose.

He looked at the distance of the fallen flashlight, which was one meter away from him.

step.

Wei Chao visually measured the distance and came to this conclusion.

He stood up, his clothes making a slight rustling sound. Then he took a step forward, cautiously and slowly.

The ghost on the stairs seemed to hear something and walked down.

Kawaharuko was scared to death. No matter who saw the ghost and thought you were gone, he couldn't remain unafraid.

Getting closer.

Kawaharuko 's heart that was hysterically shouting, run , run .

In just a few seconds, Kawaharuko thought about a century.

Do you want to believe Wei Chao?

While she was struggling with her thoughts, on the other side, Wei Chao stretched out his arm and touched the flashlight. When he picked it up, the flashlight was instantly turned off.

Wei Chao successfully turned off the light source and pressed the send button.

There was a loud bang.

It was like something collapsing, which made people's hearts skip a beat.

The ghost on the stairs stopped moving downstairs .

Kawaharuko bit her lip hard, trying her best to overcome her fear and not make a sound.

The ghost on the stairs moved slightly, seeming to be thinking.

There was a snap, and another loud bang.

The ghost finally moved, his head turned ninety degrees, and his exposed eyeballs turned. Then he raised his feet and walked towards the place where the big noise came from.

Huh, haha.

After waiting for a few minutes to confirm that the ghost had left this place, Kawaharuko gasped for air.

On the thin line between life and death, she was frightened.

Why does this damn game have to be so realistic?

After Kawaharuko completely regained her composure and looked at the young man in front of her, she intuitively believed that the sound had something to do with Wei Chao.

"Thank you for saving me."

Kawaharuko tried to stand up by holding on to the ground, but her legs were still a little weak.

"It's okay." Wei Chao stretched out his hand and pulled her up.

"what on earth is it?"

"You found a way out."

"How did you make that noise just now?"

Questions came one after another at Wei Chao .

After the words came out, Kawaharuko realized that it was not suitable to question Wei Chao face to face after being rescued .

Her face was slightly red, and she strategically smoothed her messy bangs.

Wei Chao didn't notice his embarrassment and just handed him the flashlight he dropped.

"I just got some clues when I went upstairs. Although it was a guess, I only learned the real evidence during the verification just now."

guess? !

Kawaharuko couldn't help but feel her heart skip a beat, at such a dangerous moment. Facing the evil ghost, he only relied on a guess?

She couldn't help but look a little subtle and said, "Have you ever thought about what you would do if you lose again?"

Wei Chao avoided the topic lightly and said, "We'd better get out of here first."

Although Wei Chao made sense and had to leave here first. In order to avoid the return of the ghosts, they needed to leave here as soon as possible, but why did he feel that Wei Chao had a guilty conscience?

If he knew the true thoughts deep inside his heart, he might not be able to help but call him crazy.

At that moment, Wei Chao really didn't think of the possibility of failure in his guess.

In fact, if there was no Wei Dynasty, Kawaharuko might not be able to escape the ghost's pursuit as safely as she is now.

In the empty corridor, two flashlight beams came one behind the other.

The circular light circle hit the smooth floor, and Kawaharuko followed Wei Chao closely .

"Where are we going?" she asked.

She followed Wei Chao up the stairs.

Wei Chao cautiously used a flashlight to look around, and answered Kawaharuko 's question at the same time, saying, "Let's go meet Cheng Yang."

Cheng Yang?

Kawaharuko recalled it and said, was it the green-haired kid who grabbed you before?

Wei Chao couldn't help but smile when he heard her description, "Yes, it's him."

"He was the one who made that noise just now."

Wei Chao took Chuan Qingzi to a door. There was a sign on the wall beside the door that said Archives Room.

"arrive."

Wei Chao opened the door .

"You're back."

Cheng Yang was like a puppy that saw its owner come home. Seeing Wei Chao come back, his tone couldn't help but rise. If he had a tail it would probably be wagging pretty hard right now.

He stepped forward and took Wei Chao 's hand, rubbing his head involuntarily.

His tone was complaining, "You don't know, you just scared me to death."

"Fortunately, I ran fast and memorized the route in advance."

After receiving the order from Wei Chao to get the last few large cabinets, he simply ran as fast as he could.

Wei Chao touched the tearful Cheng Yang's head soothingly.

With this strong sense of sight, Chuan Qingzi seemed to see a pair of furry ears growing on the top of Cheng Yang's head.

In fact, he didn't expect that Cheng Yang would really do what he did.

"Cough cough cough"

Although Kawaharuko didn't want to interrupt this scene, the situation was urgent now, and she also wanted to know what Wei Chao had discovered . Since the ghost can be made to leave.

Cheng Yang stood aside obediently. Wei Chao patted his wrinkled sleeves.

He took out a piece of paper from his pocket, "I found this in the archives."

Games generally don't give players dead ends, but leave clues. As for players discovering them this way, it depends on the player's ability.

There are still 20 minutes until the end of the game.

A piece of yellowed paper appeared in front of everyone's eyes under the light.

It was a piece of printed paper with small light yellow flowers printed on it.

Cheng Yang squinted his eyes , trying to see what was written on it.

The handwriting is scrawled, and it looks like a poem written crookedly on it? No, it’s more like a person’s inner monologue.

(My ears have heard your insults.

In the silent speculation, I was silent in the tide, and the people hiding in the dark laughed, and their footsteps got closer and closer.

Mine didn't want to pay attention to those voices. I hide in the dark and cannot see any light. I tried to argue, but no one believed me. If you can, please let their mouths rot, let them bear my pain, dig open their hearts and see what color their hearts are. To swallow my pain. )

Cheng Yang read it word by word, and felt more and more weird as he read to the end.

Kawaharuko also looked a little scared. She unconsciously touched the meaning on her arm and asked Wei Chao , "This is the clue you found."

"Um."

Wei Chao nodded and said, "Although I don't know who wrote it, at least it gave us a hint."

"Hint? Where is the hint?"

Chen Yang asked, a little confused.

Wei Chao pointed to the above keywords in turn.

Invective, footsteps, darkness.

Sound and light!

instantly thought of the time when Wei Chao saved her.

Wei Chao first turned off the flashlight, avoiding the light that was one of the conditions, which was in line with the darkness in the original text. Secondly, Chen Yang was asked to make a loud noise and there was no light, then he would abide by the second rule, so the ghost was attracted by the loud noise of the cabinet falling.

"But?"

Chen Yang asked, "Then don't we have voices when we speak?"

Wei Chao shook his head and had some doubts, "Maybe it doesn't fit the curse inside."

From a game design perspective, there may be no curses in the war, so the player's footsteps were added.

"But based on the angle we separated before going upstairs, I guess sound and light are two necessary conditions."

Wei Chao put away the paper and recalled his previous encounters.

In the case where the two conditions do not exist at the same time, it is estimated that the ghost will prefer the side with greater chances.

So after the lights went out, Wei Chao and Shigekawa Haruko actually made a sound, but Chen Yang made a louder sound when the cabinet fell down, so the ghost chose to go to Cheng Yang first.

After listening to Wei Chao's explanation , Chen Yang was a little excited and said, "Then we can stay until the end of the game, as long as we avoid these fatal conditions."

Kawaharuko couldn't help but feel a little happier.

But Wei Chao always felt that the game would not be that simple.

Just when Cheng Yang and Chuan Qingzi breathed a sigh of relief, a game announcement cast a shadow over their happy moods.

[Players please note that player Zhao Yun has been eliminated. ]

It's still fifteen minutes before the game ends.

Chen Yang smiled reluctantly and said, "It doesn't matter. We already know the conditions. As long as we stay here peacefully and don't trigger fatal conditions, we can survive these 15 minutes."

"We can also get a game reward prop."

Cheng Yang tried his best to describe things in a positive way.

"Except Zhao Yun." Cheng Yang said what he thought of, "You, me, and Chuan Qingzi will definitely survive."

As he was talking, Cheng Yang suddenly slapped his head and said, "By the way, there's Yi Fei too."

"But Yi Fei is here to arrest people." Thinking of this, Chen Yang couldn't help but weaken his tone and look a little unnatural.

After all, they are now in a hostile relationship. If Yi Fei cannot catch us, he will be considered a failure by the system.

Cheng Yang was a little soft-hearted, but there was nothing he could do.

Time passes minute by minute, and now there are still 12 minutes until the end of the game.

While the three of them were staying in the archives room, a person quietly walked up to the floor where they were.

closed doors are lined up one after another. The sky outside was still pitch black, without even a hint of starlight.

The person who came was all muscular, and there were blood stains on the shoes on the soles of his feet.

Every step he took left bloody marks on the ground.

Cheng Yang and the others were leaning against the wall, with a look of fatigue on their faces. Not long after they entered the game, they had basically not rested.

You Qi's nerves had been tense , and now that they had a moment of rest, they couldn't help but relax a little more vigilance.

Wei Chao leaned against the wall . He was also a little tired. This game came not long after the last one ended, and the burden on his mental strength was still a bit heavy.

He tilted his head, closed his eyes gently, and even his breathing slowed down a bit.

His hands were on his knees. Sit with one leg bent against the wall.

He still had the slightly damaged red bead on his wrist.

Kawaharuko's bored eyes wandered around. She accidentally saw this bead and couldn't help but be attracted by it.

A good bead, how could it be broken? Wei Chao continued to wear the broken beads on his hand.

These thoughts flashed through his mind, and just when she was thinking about asking after the game was over, he discovered that the bead actually gave off a faint red light.

Wei Chao suddenly opened his eyes and said, "Let's go."

"Walk."

Cheng Yang and Chuan Qingzi felt bad.

"coming."

Wei Chao stood up and opened the back door of the archives room.

"Go quickly."

There was no time to explain, and before they could react, they started running mechanically after Wei Chao .

They all agreed not to use flashlights, even though it was difficult to run in the dark. But for those who can enter the game, seeing in the dark is a bit difficult, but not difficult.

Although it is inevitable that there will be some bumps and bumps, everything is done to save life.

There was a bright light behind them, shining towards them.

Chen Yang turned his head inadvertently when he turned the corner and went upstairs.

Behind him was Zhao Fei, who had been eliminated.

What, what's going on?

Cheng Yang thought to himself, Zhao Fei was already dead and eliminated.

Could it be that the ghost turned into Zhao Fei?

They quickened their pace.

"Should we run separately? Isn't it too big to aim for together?"

Kawaharu gasped and spoke.

Cheng Yang nodded, "Let's separate."

So they separated at the next turn.

Wei Chao continued to go upstairs, and Kawaharuko chose to go downstairs. But Cheng Yang ran to the other side of the aisle, preparing to go upstairs on the other side.

There are still 10 minutes until the game.

As long as they survive 10 minutes, they can end the game.

The moment they separated, the dead Zhao Fei stopped. He tilted his head and held a huge ax in his other hand.

There was a little blood on his face, and the flashlight distributed by the system was stuffed in his mouth. After a moment's pause, he chose to go upstairs.

Kawaharuko went downstairs , she found that there was no sound coming from behind her. She couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. Although she felt a little guilty, she was more thankful.

Still, she didn't dare stop.

is on the second floor now .

In the dark night, his eyes suddenly became really big. The light from a flashlight around the corner illuminated the direction she was running towards.

Almost instantly, Kawaharuko turned around and ran towards the back.

what happened? who is it.

"Kawaharuko."

A voice came from behind.

Yi Fei suddenly appeared behind her, holding a flashlight.

Then the footsteps started running.

"Wait, don't run, I won't catch you."
