Unusual call

The speed of turning the head didn't even exceed one second, but still no one could explain what happened just now, it was as if a transparent and powerful hand suddenly stretched out from the air, throwing the man from mid-air Go out in general.

The empty hall, the magnificent decoration, the rich light, in such an unbearably comfortable and reassuring environment, there is some unimaginable dangerous atmosphere creeping quietly.

Everyone realizes the same problem, there is something else there that they can't even see.

This kind of thinking made the golden crystal light a little lighter, and the aura of wealth and nobility that it revealed seemed to be distorted. It was not so much a dazzling lighting device as it was more like the trance of light and dark at dusk when day and night alternate. time.

And the weirdest thing was that the old man behind the service desk didn't move at all. Ji Chuan also found that he didn't even turn a page of the book in his hand.He seemed to be a wax sculpture, there was no life in his body, but every detail on his body was realistic and terrifying.

Facing the unknown situation and creatures, several people did not rush over recklessly, but moved cautiously towards the pillar, observing the surrounding situation while moving to avoid accidents.

Although the system prompts that this level does not involve escape content, it does not say that it does not involve other horror elements. Ji Chuan didn't think about it at first. It was not until this accident that he thought that it might be given by the system. language trap.

The player lay on the ground for a while before he staggered up. He seemed to have injured his spine. After a long delay, he sat down with his back against the pillar, and his brows furrowed deeply on his expressionless face just now.

"What did you do just now?" Holmes opened his mouth to ask what happened just now, as if he didn't see the other person's face livid with pain.

"Don't touch him." It may be that the real pain made the player realize how unreasonable this game is, and he is not as indifferent as before, but the information given is less and more intriguing.

The meanings of the words 'Don't touch him' are beyond the reach of other players who don't know what happened just now.

"Don't touch anyone? That old man?" Crystal Bao had always disliked this man, but now seeing him playing charades with them at this time, he couldn't help but get angry, "Can't you even deal with an old man? Strong, I didn't expect it to be a spicy chicken."

Crystal Bao's tone was very blunt, and Ji Chuan's expression darkened.

The most taboo thing about playing this type of game is that there are disputes within the team before the start. Although everyone has a competitive relationship, it is undoubtedly the most stupid behavior to cause internal strife at the beginning.In the end, Ji Chuan, who thought the other party would be angry, found that the man just sneered, stood up with the support of the pillar, patted the non-existent dirt on his pants, ignored the crystal bag, turned and left.

"What, what does he mean!" The ignored crystal bag seemed to be even more angry, and was about to rush to find that person to argue, but was grabbed by the steel shrimp.

Obviously, even if Steel Shrimp fell in love with Brain again, he knew that a conflict at this time would be of no benefit to anyone.

"Okay, don't be as knowledgeable as him." Steel Shrimp persuaded.

"What should we do now?" Yong Chuangtianya saw that the crystal bag was no longer emotional, and tactfully brought the question back, "Five people, divide into two groups?"

In view of what just happened, forming a team at this moment is undoubtedly the safest way.

But Ji Chuan didn't intend to act with them from the beginning, what a joke, he has detected real supernatural scenes several times by himself, would he still be afraid of a holographic game?

"Well, I'll do it by myself." Ji Chuan slowed down his voice, making himself sound sincere and harmless, winking at the direction where the person left just now amidst everyone's questioning eyes, and whispered, "I'll follow he."

"I can't see that you have a lot of heart~" Crystal Bao felt that this idea was good, mainly because it would cause some trouble for that person, and she was very happy, so she took the initiative to pat Ji Chuan on the shoulder, "I think this idea That's right, He Zichuan, it's up to you."

Holmes and Yongchuang Tianya couldn't help showing disapproval expressions after listening to Crystal Bao's words, but the expressions were fleeting, and no one saw them except Ji Chuan who was standing opposite them.

"I don't know what's going on here, so be careful." Holmes once again resumed his demeanor of pointing out Jiangshan just now, and smiled grandiosely at Ji Chuan, "The first floor will be handed over to you. Let's go to the second floor and monitor Be careful with that person, don't be discovered, okay?"

"No problem." Ji Chuan pretended to nod with a serious expression, turned around and walked lightly towards the direction where the person left just now.

Out of everyone's sight, Ji Chuan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Those players just now seemed to want to cooperate sincerely to clear the level together, but they actually had their own ideas.

First of all, the purpose of Sherlock Holmes who proposed to form a team is to contain one person. Not only can he share information with him, but also in the case of two or two teams, both parties have to be wary of each other, and it is not so convenient to hide anything. .

It was even more ruthless to venture into the world, directly targeting Sherlock Holmes, who seemed to have a plan in his chest, in order to keep an eye on the person who seemed to be the strongest, and get first-hand information if possible.

Crystal Bao knew that he was not as good as Chuangtianya and Sherlock Holmes, so he chose Steel Shrimp, who seemed to have a crush on her. As for why he didn't choose Ji Chuan, it was probably because Ji Chuan had never seen her before she spoke. .

Fortunately, the lone male player disrupted Holmes' plan, and Ji Chuan was lucky enough to leave the team as an excuse to act. Otherwise, it is very likely that Holmes or Brave Crowd will be the one who clears the level the fastest.

Ji Chuan waited at the same spot for a while, then walked back, hid behind the wall and looked at the hall before coming out after finding no one there.He had to check the door again. The information Holmes gave just now was that the door was locked, but he refused to disclose the specific situation at all.

Coming to the door, Ji Chuan found a serious problem, the door didn't have a keyhole.

In other words, what they were looking for was not the key, or in other words, the exit to escape from this level was not the door at all.

Holmes gave everyone a misleading message at the beginning, but fortunately Ji Chuan came back to check again.

Then Ji Chuan turned his attention to the service desk. So far, he only found this one NPC-like creature in the entire library. It didn't make sense that his existence was just a display, so he decided to try it out and see what answers he could get.

However, in view of the experience that someone had warned them not to touch him just now, and someone even flew out, Ji Chuan decided to be [-] times more careful.

He cautiously approached the service counter. The black and white texture of the marble did not warm up under the rich light. The cold touch made Ji Chuan shiver uncontrollably, thinking that the stone must have been frozen in a freezer. Take it out and put it here.

Go around and come to the computer. This is a very old computer. There is even a socket for a 3.5-inch disk on the mainframe. The monitor is also a thick old style, and there are some dirty light brown marks on the edge of the screen.Ji Chuan boldly tried to touch it. Seeing that the old man didn't respond, he stretched out his hand to pick it, but it didn't come off.

Giving up on researching the monitor, Ji Chuan bent down and pressed the start button on the host computer, not surprisingly, he found that the computer couldn't be turned on at all.

He looked at the power plug and other connecting wires again, and found that there were no problems. After pondering for a while, Ji Chuan suddenly had a bold idea, but this idea required him to find that thing.

No other clues could be obtained from the service desk, so Ji Chuan turned around and was about to leave, when he accidentally found that the old man's sleeve was pressed against the book he was reading, and the corner of the book was folded up.

Ji Chuan, who was slightly obsessive-compulsive, stared at the creased corner of the book for a long time, and finally couldn't help it. He reached out and slowly pulled out the corner of the book from under the old man's sleeve to smooth it out.

The moment he raised his head, Ji Chuan seemed to feel that the old man was looking at him, but this feeling disappeared soon, and the old man's gaze seemed to return to the book.

Only then did Ji Chuan realize that the old man saw that there were no words in the book! !

Could the book without words be a clue?

Ji Chuan tried to pull the book out of the old man's hand, but it was of course in vain. The old man held the wordless book tightly with one hand, as if Ji Chuan was robbing him of some priceless treasure.

Thinking of the sincere advice just now, Ji Chuan gave up his plan to get that book.

Since that person refused to touch the old man, there must be some reason. Although no one knows what happened just now, it is obvious that it is obviously not a good idea to provoke a person, whether it is in the game or outside the game.

There was no value in continuing the investigation, so Ji Chuan went inside again, completely unaware that the shadow belonging to the old man's head reflected on the marble floor was slowly turning around as he watched him leave.

Since graduating from university, Ji Chuan has never been in the library again.So much so that he now has the illusion that he is about to be suffocated by the aroma of ink.

There are too many books here, Steel Shrimp is right, if you really want to find something from here, it is no different from finding a needle in a haystack.

He probably overlooked some details, or the key clue to clearing the dungeon had nothing to do with the book or the door at all.

Ji Chuan thought about the year that thing belonged to, and decided to go to the place where the old materials were stored first to search for some clues.

Ji Chuan, who decided to go to another place, just left the bookshelf he was leaning on, and when he looked up, he saw that there was a book missing on the opposite shelf that was full of books just now.

And in that gap, one eye was looking at him sullenly.
