Chapter 273 Weird World, Mysterious Villa! (Please Subscribe, Please Vote)
At Su Muyu's urging, Zhang Yangqing opened the personal reward.
[Congratulations on clearing the ghost story "Plague Town"]
[Normal reward: All attributes are increased by 10 points. 】
[Special reward 1: Dragon Yushu (one tree). 】
[Special reward 2: props ‘gloves’ (one pair). 】
Dragon Yushu: An ancient treasure tree. Legend has it that it originated from the ancient dragon clan. It was once the treasure tree where the dragon god sat and realized the world. Meditating under the tree can refresh the mind and increase the ability to understand the world and all things.
Gloves: Once worn, they will protect your hands from contamination and viruses, as long as they are not scratched.
Zhang Yangqing checked his gloves. This kind of thing should help him pass the world of ghost stories.
For example, there may be pollution in some places, but the customs clearance props happen to be hidden in them.
He can obtain these props without being contaminated.
But there is another thing to note here, that is, this glove is not an invincible prop. If it is scratched, then the glove will be of little use.
If a prop is damaged, it can basically be thrown away.
But now there are very few props that can be spawned, so everyone keeps them with them in case they can be repaired in the future.
After all, Blue Star's props cannot be brought in. If you have these props, your survival rate will be slightly improved.
As for the dragon jade tree, Zhang Yangqing placed it in the backyard. The leaves of this tree are shaped like dragon scales, with overlapping dragon scales and glowing brightly, as if there is a real dragon hovering on the trunk.
When the breeze blows, the leaves sway, like the soul of a dragon dancing, majestic and mysterious.
Just standing under the tree, Zhang Yangqing felt that his sleepy mind was constantly waking up.
Zhang Yangqing does not have to worry about how to allocate the use time of this tree, and it is not something he needs to be responsible for.
The next day, the world of ghost stories arrived as scheduled.
But this time the start time is 8pm.
They are selected by expert groups from each country, and the expert groups are also selected from those who signed up.
Hu Liuqi and the others are having a huge headache on the Dragon Kingdom's expert team.
Because there were so many people who signed up at the beginning, a total of 320 people, all of whom were strong men from various sects.
Moreover, many people came over to ‘say hello’ through connections.
Anyway, they use various channels to put pressure on the expert group and let the expert group select them.
In particular, the presidents of the six major associations also mobilized their own efforts.
This left the expert group wondering who to choose. After all, Zhang Yangqing hadn’t signed up yet.
In a place like the Dragon Kingdom, if the elected person cannot convince the public, wouldn't that mean that he has eaten up other people?
Just when the expert group was a little undecided, Zhang Tianshi suddenly signed up without saying a word.
This reduces a certain amount of pressure on the expert group. After all, no one else is convinced, but this one is really capable.
They don't value the resources of the cultivation world very much. What they want is to get rid of the ghost stories and return to a stable life.
This is also the wish of ordinary people, and public opinion will support Zhang Yangqing's participation.
But it was at this time that some ‘rumors’ spread.
It started spreading in the Daomen chat group, and then someone posted it on WeChat Moments, and the incident spread.
This is the scene of Zhang Yangqing showing his divine power in Tianyong Mountain.
The Internet is like this. Different people get this video and have different captions below it.
Anyway, it’s just a video at the beginning. The specific content is completely made up. The more exciting it is, the more eye-catching it will be.
It was outrageous later on, and I don’t know who said it. The rumor was: Zhang Tianshi heard that the presidents of the six major associations were trying to compete for places to enter the world of ghost stories, so he went directly to teach the presidents of the six major associations a lesson, and also The Tianyong sect was dismantled.
Regardless of whether this is the case or not, the video of Zhang Yangqing punishing the presidents of the six major associations has been circulated.
Zhang Yangqing has indeed shown unparalleled strength, and his ability is recognized as number one in the Dragon Kingdom cultivation world.
Those extraordinary forces who had signed up for the expert group suddenly withdrew their names because they were too afraid that Zhang Yangqing would come and destroy their homes.
Even the presidents of the six major associations were unable to resist, and even after being beaten, they did not dare to sanction Zhang Yangqing. How could those small forces dare to wade into troubled waters.
Ordinary people would not compete with Zhang Yangqing. A large list of more than 300 people had just signed up, and now only Zhang Yangqing was on the list.
There was no need for Zhang Yangqing to greet the expert team, no one dared to compete with him.
The same goes for other countries. After bloody battles, suppressions and discussions, they finally selected their quotas.
But early in the morning, the world of ghost stories seemed to give everyone in Blue Star a provocation.
[The World of Strange Tales will start at 20:00 today. The current difficulty is six and a half stars. Please be prepared for the chosen ones from all countries. 】
This does not seem to have any hints, but it is indeed a warning to all the extraordinary forces of Blue Star.
You know, the last Ghost Story Plague Town was also six and a half stars.
In theory, it should be upgraded to seven stars, but it is still there.
Weird World seems to be saying that your level is only six and a half stars.
After all, there are only three Chosen Ones who have obtained resources above SSSS. One has obtained extraordinary resources, one has obtained normal resources, and one of them has not yet awakened.
There were too many extraordinary beings killed and injured, and the world of ghost talk may have concluded that this level of difficulty has become unmanageable for the people of Blue Star.
Therefore, this difficult world of ghost stories will continue to appear.
The last time Guitaan World didn't get a star was when it first came out.
Before Kaitan World reached two stars, it had gone through dozens of games.
Sometimes it only takes ten games to get half a star. It was only after Zhang Yangqing reversed the difficulty of the game that the game was made more difficult, so the star rating of the game continued to soar.
The people participating in the Kaitan this time have completely changed. Many of the extraordinary forces that previously participated in the Kaidan were unable to suppress other forces in the country, so the contestants were replaced by different people.
Longhu Mountain in the Dragon Kingdom has qualified for the competition. The only one similar to Longhu Mountain is the Holy See, which is a frequent visitor to the world of ghost stories.
This time El Greco was unconscious, and the Pope asked Sidney, the paladin with the ghost back, to come up.
He had just made this decision and no one dared to object, but many people questioned Sidney's ability.
Sidney cleared the level last time, but his performance was so rubbish.
It was an embarrassment to the Holy See, so other cardinals and paladins volunteered.
After all, Greco has shared a lot of experience internally, and they also have some understanding of the world of ghost stories.
Combined with the experience of the last ghost talk, force is not necessarily the key, but a smart mind is necessary to pass the level.
However, the Pope also had his own plans. He felt that Sidney must have been favored by the Lord because he behaved so badly and did not die.
Commonly known as good luck.
And no matter how bad he is, he is still a real passer, and he still has a certain awareness of the dangers hidden in the world of ghost stories.
So this time, it was the best choice for him to go to the strange world.
Since the Pope has said so, other clergymen do not have much objection.
Sidney doesn't believe it anymore. It's impossible to deprive him of his physical abilities every time he talks about ghosts, right?
As long as he has muscles, he can still have confidence.
Most of the extraordinary forces in Blue Star selected former "passers" to enter the world of ghost stories this time.
These passers received the blessing of resources in a short period of time and gained certain abilities.
Although it has not yet reached the extraordinary realm, it is much stronger than ordinary people and is infinitely close to the limit of human beings.
The most unexpected thing is that this time Britain went in the opposite direction and sent a powerful transcendent, a count with vampire blood.
That was a nobleman of the British Kingdom, and he was also an old man. If he died in battle, it would cause a certain degree of shock to the British Kingdom.
At noon, expert groups from various countries submitted their lists.
At this time, Zhang Yangqing was ready to go back to sleep.
Su Muyu saw Zhang Yangqing leaving and asked where he was going.
"Based on my understanding of the strange world of ghost stories, if he opens it at eight o'clock, there will probably be activities at night. I will sleep first to recuperate."
After hearing Zhang Yangqing's explanation, Su Muyu nodded and told him not to oversleep and get up around 7:30 to move around and eat something.
Zhang Yangqing also agreed wholeheartedly.
The time soon came to eight o'clock in the evening, and a screen of light appeared in front of the chosen ones, which seemed to indicate the danger of the next strange world.
[This Rules Monster Talk has started, and each country will select a chosen person to enter the game world of Rules Monster Tales. 】
[If the chosen one dies, strange stories will randomly appear in a city in the country. 】
[If the country fails ten times in a row, strange stories will cover the entire country. 】
[The world of ghost stories is opening, the current copy of 'Mysterious Villa'! 】
[Current difficulty level of ghost stories: six and a half stars. 】
[In the world of Kaitan, you will play a blind man. Please keep a clear mind to find the rules in the copy and use the rules to survive. 】
Seeing this, the chosen ones were dumbfounded!
etc! What? blind! ?
Before they could react, after a burst of white light, the chosen ones came to the world of ghost stories.
The moment they appeared in the world of Kaidan, they instantly lost their vision.
There was pitch black in front of him, not that he could not see his fingers, but that he was immersed in endless darkness.
As a completely blind man, he cannot even feel the light, which makes the Chosen Ones feel fearful and uneasy in their hearts.
Even though they were prepared, the vision they had always relied on for survival was deprived of them. The chosen ones were caught off guard. For a moment, they didn't know what to do. The fear in their hearts was constantly sprouting.
At this time, the chosen ones could only feel their own accelerating heartbeats and breathing.
A depressing atmosphere has always filled the surroundings.
Most of the chosen ones stood dumbly, not knowing what to do.
Because before coming, the chosen ones had certain preset playing styles in their minds, which is the so-called experience.
That is to quickly find the rules after coming in, but now that I am blind, how can I find the rules?
The Chosen Ones don’t even know where they are and whether there is any danger nearby. What if they go to the wrong place and knock over something they shouldn’t?
If you make one wrong move, you may die at the beginning.
Thinking of this, the Chosen Ones became even more uneasy, and their heartbeats also accelerated.
Let alone exploring this area, many of the chosen ones do not even dare to take the first step.
Jin Zhengqi, the Chosen One of Bangzi Kingdom, began to hear tiny strange noises coming from around him, as if something was moving in the darkness.
He felt an unpredictable sense of oppression, as if something was staring at him in the darkness, and his whole body was like a wax figure, frozen in place.
How much he expected the eyes around him to move away from him, but he didn't know if it was his illusion or if there were real eyes.
Many of the chosen ones began to calm down after being frightened for a while.
Staying in a daze was not an option, so they mustered up the courage and slowly began to feel everything around them.
Since vision cannot be used, there are also smell, hearing, touch, etc.
The bedroom was filled with dampness and a sickening stench.
Sidney, the Chosen One of Ramen Country, touched his muscles, and he felt a sense of security.
Ever since, he started shouting for help, but the sound seemed to echo in a 'small room'.
Recalling the prompt I saw before I was blind, the current copy is called Mysterious Villa.
So from here it can be inferred that he should be in a certain room in the villa.
In order to understand the situation, he began to explore the surrounding situation.
Sidney did not dare to take too big steps. In such a strange place, if he wanted to make sure that his footing was safe, he had to put his weight behind him and keep rubbing one foot on the ground.
Soon, his feet touched a hard object, and he touched it. It should be a bed.
Sidney could tell that he should be beside the bed in a certain bedroom now.
After all, beds don’t normally appear in places like living rooms and kitchens.
He felt around on the bed and felt something wasn't right.
Because he touched a spherical and somewhat cold thing with convex and concave areas, long hairs on it, and some viscous liquid around it.
"Damn it, it can't be that one, right?"
Sidney swallowed and put the round, hairy thing down.
He was relatively calm. After touching this thing, Jin Zhengqi, the Chosen One from the Bangzi Kingdom next door, retracted his arm as if he was electrocuted, screamed, and even hit the wall behind him, causing his head to buzz.
He began to understand the horror of this bedroom. These things were so creepy that he shuddered.
You can't blame the chosen ones for being timid. There are different situations between being able to see it and not being able to see it.
If you can see it, the brave chosen one will quickly adapt. After all, you have never seen anything in the world of ghost stories.
Just because I can't see it, I keep imagining some scary pictures, for fear that I will be like the things I touch.
The Chosen One of Sakura Kingdom groped on the wall and found a switch, which made him a little happy.
But after he pressed the switch, the house might light up, but he was still blind and couldn't see anything.
Those who dare to explore here are basically the brave chosen ones. After all, they feel that even if they are blind, so what, the world of ghost stories can't let me die here from the beginning, right?
There must be some clues, and we must find them.
Because as long as you calm down, you can judge that before the next 'event' occurs, the waiting time left for the chosen ones in the world of ghost stories is to let them continue to explore.
Only by finding the key things and obtaining more information can we survive in this strange world.
I have to say that this level is really difficult. Just exploring, the Chosen Ones are very slow.
After ten minutes of exploration, some of the chosen ones touched the cabinet, opened the drawer and continued to search for useful things.
Some touched the door handle, but were in no hurry to go out.
Others were smarter. They removed the solid wood hangers in the room and used a stick in their hand as a guide stick. They knocked around nearby, which was more convenient than touching it with their hands.
This is also a weapon when necessary.
At this moment, a burst of radio noise appeared, as if the old radio in the room was starting up, which scared many of the chosen ones to the point where their hearts beat wildly.
After the noise ended, a piece of content was played, which only the chosen ones could hear.
The chosen ones also quickly calmed down and listened to the rules carefully.
Now that I can't see, I can only rely on hearing. If I can't listen to the rules carefully, then it's no different from dying in the world of ghost stories.
Mystery Villa survival rules:
[Rule 1: Please always remember that apart from you, the only life form living here is human. 】
[Rule 2: Blind people don’t need to look in the mirror, but you can’t live without a mirror. 】
[Rule 3: A person who likes roses will not hurt you, but the premise is that you cannot destroy his roses. 】
[Rule 4: When you go to bed at night, please go back to your room. Only your own room is safe. 】
[Rule 5: If someone asks you the color of his clothes, please answer carefully. Wrong answers can be very dangerous. 】
[Rule 6: When you live here, if you hear shouting or knocking on the door between 12pm and 1pm, please ignore it. 】
[Rule 7: Find your other companion as soon as possible, he needs you now! 】
The rules were repeated several times before stopping.
But even after listening to it a few times, most of the chosen ones fell into a state of confusion.
Sidney was experienced in the world of ghost stories, and he always stood in the room with a confused look on his face.
What is this rule? This is just making things difficult, okay?
Especially this rule 5, it is obviously the so-called rule advent condition, which can also be said to be the attack condition.
But here’s the problem, I’m blind, how can I tell the color of other people’s clothes?
Color is visual, not smell, right?
If you answer incorrectly, you will be attacked. If you don’t answer, you don’t know what will happen. After all, the rules say ‘please answer seriously’, and it doesn’t say you can’t answer.
However, it can also be judged here. It may be beneficial to answer the question correctly, but it must not be answered incorrectly.
In the six-and-a-half-star ghost story world, the Chosen One is still blind, so it’s really hard to defend against being attacked.
If there are any instant-death props, if you smell poisonous gas, if you eat the wrong food, if you are exposed to a 'virus' or 'contamination', then it will be the same as death.
It can be said that before Sidney even knew how to pass the level, he knew that he might die in dozens of ways.
Just when the Chosen Ones were about to continue analyzing the rules, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door.
In this strange and depressing environment, these footsteps are like reminders.
All of a sudden, the hearts of the chosen ones were raised to their throats!
