Chapter 132: The ghost city
In the next few days, Zhang Wang practiced swordsmanship in the yard equipped with his newly purchased double-storey building during the day. When he was tired, he went back to the house to watch a movie with Liu Yun.
Of course, I won’t watch any art films or romance films. I watch every day science fiction, horror or magic movies.
From many new blockbusters that are currently popular to old movies ten or twenty years ago, they have all been involved. They have enriched their knowledge of the mission world that may appear in the future.
Warm time always passes quickly, and a new task will soon come.
As the last two tasks that are about to enter the next level of space, Zhang Wang attaches much importance to this task than before. He made up his mind and hoped to get a lot of benefits from it in preparation for the challenges he would face after entering the second level of space in the future.
...
The hazy rain clouds enveloped the city.
The gray walls and the narrow design of the building spacing make the city look old and small. Coupled with the stuffy summer weather and lingering haze, it makes people feel that the chest cavity is compressed and breathing is not smooth.
In this city, in a narrow and dark alley, a transparent shield was quietly covering the ground above the people lying all over the ground.
If someone counts here, they will be surprised to find that there are as many as hundreds of people in this alley!
Even though the alley itself is not short, it is still full of these inexplicable visitors!
Everyone woke up one after another.
From the perspective of performance, these people were quickly divided into two categories.
A type of people, with panic, confused, fearful, suspicious...
Another type of people have a little less, but their expressions are much calmer. Some people even take it as usual and are very relaxed.
"Ding-! The world's "Ghost City" has entered! A total of 100 participants have all been teleported... The mission is being released..."
"Main Mission 1: Survive for 30 days - Survive for 30 days in the ghost city and do not leave. Complete the reward of 3,000 god coins!".
"Main Mission 2: Ghost Illustration - Investigate the real situation of ghosts in a city full of ghosts. You can get corresponding rewards for every ghost information collected."
"Note: After being killed, ghosts in this world have a chance to drop 'ghost fragments', which can strengthen the corresponding ghost skills."
The task is released.
The isolation between the alley and the outside world opens instantly.
As for most seniors, they are not willing to stay with newcomers or other seniors who may kill and rob at any time.
So, the seniors left the alley one after another.
Several seniors' high-profile ways of leaving the wall and flying, which immediately aroused the screams of many newcomers.
In a short while, there were not many seniors left in the entire alley.
Zhang Wang glanced at the seniors who had not left yet and directly lifted his legs and left the alley.
After leaving the alley, the light around it became much brighter.
However, that dark and obscure feeling still enveloped the surroundings. The whole city looked a bit dark and obscure.
After leaving the alley, Zhang Wang wandered on the street while buying a copy of today's city morning newspaper and a map from a newsstand.
After randomly digging into a cafe, Zhang Wang roughly read the morning newspaper and map in his hand.
The Morning News has nothing new, it is nothing more than some trivial matters in the city. Most of them are new policy trends of the municipal government and various departments.
The others are nothing more than where roads are built and where a new store is opened to promote it.
The only thing that Zhang Wang cares a little about is the two pages of the city's curiosity story attached to the back of this morning newspaper. Judging from the submission mailbox below, these stories are obviously written by contributors in this city.
After submitting the article to the newspaper, he was selected to serialize it in the newspaper.
I took a random look at Zhang Wang and found something interesting - most of these stories are ghost stories. As for normal, there are very few urban stories that are very popular.
When Zhang Wang read a few boring short stories and spread out the map, he soon found that many of the location information mentioned in the story were exactly consistent with the map.
The origin of the story is the citizens of the city, and it is not strange that the location overlaps.
But for Zhang Wang, who knows that there are a lot of "ghosts" in this city, although these information may be fabricated, it is always much better than looking for it randomly in this huge city!
He spent some money to ask the coffee shop owner to find some old newspapers. He also learned a lot of interesting stories about the city from him.
Of course, the owner of this coffee shop did not know that there was a "ghost".
But in his opinion, there are many ghost stories in this city.
There are also many gloomy places.
In the evening, Zhang Wang walked out of the coffee shop with a few newspapers and an inauthentic chicken sandwich. He took a taxi to head towards the only hospital in the city...
What Zhang Wang, who was sitting in the car, didn't know was that when he followed the clues to the hospital with a lot of ghost stories, many god-selected people like him also began their own activities.
Although most of the newcomers are just looking for shelter and food and have no intention of performing tasks, the actions of a large number of veterans still add a hint of restlessness to this twilight city...
North of the city.
This has always been an area where ghost stories and legends are extremely popular.
Whether it is the abandoned old town located here or the large cemetery on the barren mountain not far away, it adds a bit of terrifying color to this place.
In the past, except for the occasional burning paper in the grave during the day, this place is almost synonymous with desertedness. Especially at night, it is impossible for someone to stay here.
And today, when the last ray of sunlight at dusk fades, there are still several young people staying here.
Judging from the large number of weapons carried by these people, these young people did not come here for an adventure without any purpose.
Hutong No. 92, east of the city.
In this complex and narrow alley like a spider web, several young and strong men were shuttled through the alley with flashlights.
The residents here can tell at a glance that this is an outsider attracted by the long-standing "missing" news of Hutong No. 92. Although they all know that these people are wandering around on the road of Hutong, they will definitely not encounter any good things once they enter late at night. However, in fear of the mysterious ghost, no one is willing to remind these outsiders.
Every household has closed its doors and windows, just like the rules that have always been followed - never wander around in the alley after nightfall.
School……
Bus No. 1 that will operate until late at night...
Several underground parking lots in this city...
