This is not a weird story

When they were about to arrive at their destination, Pei Na reminded Wei An: "You have only mastered part of the skills of fighting with a hammer, but if you make good use of it, you won't have much problem subduing your opponent."

Wei An recalled what Pei Na had taught her these past few days.

When Pei Na was teaching, she disassembled the short stick fighting method and incorporated the hammer tapping action into it, forming a unique hammer attack method here in Wei'an.

If it hits the opponent in a fight, it will definitely be much more powerful than a short stick.

"In fact, sometimes it is better to practice it once after teaching it ten times. In this way, you will master it faster and have your own understanding." Pei Na continued.

"My hands have been itchy these days and I want to give it a try," Wei An said.

At this time, the car had stopped. In front of it was a cordon that had just been pulled up, and behind the cordon was the entrance to a large shopping mall.

The two got out of the car.

Pei Na said: "You have just mastered the basic movements. If you really want to fight, don't show off. You must pay full attention to your opponent and don't have any mentality of underestimating the enemy."

"Yeah." Wei An nodded and looked at the two management staff who came up.

One of them asked: "Are these two Wei An and Pei Na?"

Pei Na replied: "It's us. The place where the strange story happened is in the mall?"

"No, it's right at the entrance of the mall." The man pointed at the gate of the mall, which was about thirty meters away.

The door was half open at the moment. Apparently the mall was preparing to open for business when the strange story occurred, so there was almost no one at the door at that time.

"Okay, let us handle it now. Don't follow us."

Wei An said something and walked towards the mall entrance with Pei Na.

The man who greeted them said nothing and stood watching the backs of Wei An and Pei Na approaching the mall gate.

After they walked away, the guy said in a very low voice: "Can these two people catch Zhang Zuxia?"

After approaching the entrance of the mall, Wei An suddenly felt that the sky above his head seemed to be darkening, and it was still morning.

He thought it was going to rain, so he looked up at the sky and found that no dark clouds appeared, but that the sky was darkening overall.

"Perhaps this is a precursor to a strange story." Wei An turned to Pei Na and said.

Then he found that Pei Na beside him had disappeared. He turned around and looked behind him, and found that the yellow warning tapes that had been pulled up just now were gone. There was no administration car parked nearby, and there was not even a single person on the street. Gone.

Looking at it this way, it seems that he was the one who entered the ghost story, not Pei Na.

Of course, Wei An, who had previous experience, did not make an immediate judgment. Instead, he looked around carefully and carefully looked inside the mall.

The interior of the mall entrance was now dark, and nothing could be seen.

The sky above the head was still darkening until it was completely dark. A half-moon hung in the sky, a faint moonlight shone down, and the surroundings were silent. The strange atmosphere in this strange story suddenly came up.

After a moment, Wei An shrugged and had to admit, "It is indeed me. I have never made a mistake in this kind of thing!"

At this moment, a piece of text from a strange story appeared in front of my eyes.

【Welcome,……! You have entered the C-level ghost story - escape for your life. 】

[Ghost Story: Escape]

[Grade: C]

[Type: Multiplayer (occasional)]

[Description of the event: The shopping mall in front of you was still open yesterday, but now it seems that there is no one left, or to be precise, there is no one alive. Please go in and find out what happened here, investigate the cause of their death if you can, and try to survive. This mall is very big, and your range of activities is also very large. You can even leave the mall directly, if you don't care about the consequences. 】

[Main mission: 1. Make sure you can escape first, and then determine the cause of death of the dead people in the mall; 2. Find the source of death that caused them to die without destroying the mall, and then try your best to stay away from it. ; 3. If possible, destroy it (this task is optional, there will be no impact if it cannot be completed). 】

[Main mission reward: 500 energy points]

[Hidden tasks: Yes]

After quickly reading the text introduction, Wei An knew that the meaning of the third item in the main task was very obvious, that is, it is okay not to destroy the source of death. At most, it can be regarded as completing the strange story normally, but if the source of death is destroyed, it may be It will be rated as "super first-class completion" and the reward will be doubled.

Moreover, there are hidden tasks in this ghost story. According to the introduction, the coverage area of ​​the ghost story is not limited to the mall in front of you, but also covers the nearby areas outside the mall, so the text reminds participants that they can leave the mall.

However, Wei An also noticed that the source of death should be in the mall, because the second main task has stated that finding the source of death without destroying the mall means that the source of death is in the mall. Rather than anywhere else outside.

At this time, the streets were deserted, and at first glance it seemed like a dead city.

Wei An immediately stepped into the half-open door of the mall.

It's a bit darker inside the mall, but once your eyes adjust, you'll probably be able to see clearly without affecting your movements.

The first floor is very large. There is an escalator in the middle and an elevator on the opposite side. However, because there is no electricity, they are all closed.

Wei An looked at the businesses on the first floor and found that they were all closed.

The shop doors of most merchants are transparent glass doors, so if he gets close, he can see clearly what is going on inside.

Soon, scenes of extremely horrifying scenes came into Wei An's eyes. Inside the closed glass door closest to him, dead people, including men and women, old and young, were lying everywhere.

Some of the dead people were not lying down, but some were curled up in the corner, with their heads buried, but their bodies were already stiff. Some were lying inside the glass door, with their mouths open and their eyes wide open, and they died in this posture. .

Some people press their bodies against the lock of a glass door before they die, as if they don't want the door to be opened, and then their bodies never move again.

Wei An took a quick look around and found that almost all of the shops on the first floor were dead! Even some shops were obviously crowded with tourists in the mall, and corpses were piled up on two floors. In one of the small stores selling clothes, shoes and hats, there were thirty or forty corpses alone, piled up into a hill, as if they were Before dying, they desperately hugged each other for warmth, and ended their lives in this posture.

Wei An let out a heavy breath. With so many dead people surrounding him, it was impossible not to feel a shiver down his spine.

He now knows that the current C-level ghost story should be part of the ghost story city, so the things presented here are real and belong to what happened in this city.

In other words, there are indeed so many people dead in the city of this ghost story world.

Now it's worth noting that only the storefront is littered with dead people, while there isn't a single body outside the store where Wei An is now standing.

After careful observation, I found that if the store was locked, it was locked from the inside, not the outside. That is, these people locked the door after running into the store, as if to prevent something from entering.

The outside is clean, but the inside of the store is like hell!

"So what are they hiding from?"

After this thought came up, there was a sudden click behind Wei An, and there was an unusual sound.
