Chapter 118: Mysterious Faceless Man

The video continued, and when the scene shifted to the interior of the forest in some abrupt way, something unexpected and unexpected happened next.

Due to the nature of the forest absorbing light, in the lens, the forest environment is not bright, and the overall environment tends to be dark. It is the kind of unclear picture that is dark but can barely see a certain range. The lens first stays still in the forest for a moment,

Soon, the camera moved, and now it moved forward and extended as it did at the beginning, undulating between tall trees, stretching forward among patches of dense vegetation, and finally locked the target after passing more than a dozen trees, locking on four people.

On children.

Yes, there are indeed 4 humans and 4 young children. They are all white children, 3 boys and 1 girl. They are all about seven or eight years old, and all of them are wearing thick and warm clothes, such as

As expected, the current season should be early winter. At this moment, four children were playing happily in the forest, playing the most classic hide-and-seek game.

Why can we be sure it’s hide and seek?

The reason is too simple, because four children are gathering together to guess each other, and the losing one directly faces the big tree and shouts the timer.

The hide-and-seek game started. As far as the eye could see, I saw a little boy facing a big tree and shouting for the timer. The other three took advantage of this gap to run away and dodge. It didn't take long before the count reached 10.

, the little boy turned around and started looking, but...

At this moment, or just when the little boy turned around and was about to search, a sudden change occurred. A shadow appeared under a big tree more than ten meters behind the boy, inexplicably in a completely unnoticeable way.

There’s an extra humanoid shadow!

To be honest, it is extremely difficult to spot people in this dim forest with limited vision, but please don’t forget that the executor is currently observing carefully. Yes, it is precisely because everyone is observing carefully and meticulously,

But it also succeeded in making most people discover the black shadow immediately.

A strange figure.

A human-shaped black shadow that never moved like a plant from beginning to end.

Seeing this, He Fei, who had been watching the scene closely, was suddenly startled. In shock, he leaned forward with his heart high in the sky. His already wide-open eyes further opened to their maximum size. There was no doubt that,

Due to the dimness of the video, he wanted to see the black shadow clearly and observe the appearance of the black shadow as much as possible, but he was disappointed. Due to the long distance and the dark screen, under the influence of the environment, no matter how he leaned forward and stared, what he could see in his field of vision was

Finally black.

Not only did He Fei's attempt fail, but all the executioners present were unable to clearly see the appearance of the human-shaped black shadow that appeared inexplicably behind the boy. They could only confirm that it was a human-shaped black shadow.

only……

Even if the image is only a black shadow, even if the picture is dim and blurry, as a senior executive who pays attention to details, during the observation period, He Fei still vaguely discovered some details from a moment of observation of the black shadow, a trace of abnormality that is difficult to catch with the naked eye.

detail.

………

With his excellent ability to observe details, He Fei discovered an astonishing detail about the black shadow.

That humanoid shadow is very tall!

The overall height is almost half the height of the trees next to it, and it is estimated to be close to 3 meters. Such a height seems to be beyond the scope of human beings.

The video is still going on. The boy in charge of arresting the person in the picture is at a loss as to what is happening behind him. When he turns around, he looks around for a while, and then runs in a certain direction. Everyone thought that the camera would move with the boy, but still.

Before the camera moves, something unexpected happens again...

Bah, bah, bah.

The strange sound echoed and resounded endlessly, and a series of sudden harsh noises sounded inexplicably. The sound was very similar to the snowflake noise when the video was switched before, but if you listen carefully, it is slightly different. In other words, the sound that surfaced in your eardrums this time did not come from the screen.

device, but from the video scene, from the currently browsing

The scene itself, as for the specific sound, how should I describe it? Let’s put it this way, if you are a person who often listens to the radio, then you will undoubtedly be very familiar with the sound that echoes in your eardrums at this moment. Yes, this is exactly what a string of radios emit when they are modulated.

Signal noise, a series of signal interference that is more severe than TV noise!

No one knows what is going on. The only thing that is clear is that the video continues. As the video continues, the weirdness continues. Perhaps the signal interference is too great. As soon as the noise appears, the footage that was stable and clear before appears inexplicably.

Shaking, large snowflakes appeared on the screen, and the snow

The flowers appear intermittently and disappear, and they appear together with the noise. It feels like the camera is suddenly malfunctioning due to constant shaking. It is true that the noise is harsh and the picture is unclear, but if you stare carefully with your eyes wide open, you can still see through the snowflakes.

I could barely see the video scene during the gap, and then...

Everyone discovered something. They discovered that the dark shadow that was originally dozens of meters away had greatly reduced its distance in just a few seconds, and moved directly from the distance of the woods to the center of the camera!!!

Fast, very fast, so fast that it can be reached in an instant. Although it cannot reach the level of teleportation, absolutely no one in the world can move so far in such a short time, at least it is difficult for humans to do it, but then again

, although the black shadow shortened the distance without warning, it was precisely this shortening of the distance that gave everyone in front of the screen an opportunity to observe the picture at close range. Even if the camera was shaking, even if it was blocked by snowflakes, they would take this opportunity to execute

The reader can still clearly see the appearance of the black shadow to a certain extent...

Tall and thin, wearing a black suit, a flawless tie around his neck, hands, feet and limbs that are so long that they seriously violate the normal proportions, and that white head with no hair or facial features!

The figure only stayed in the picture for a moment, and then disappeared without a trace, appearing and disappearing as suddenly as it came.

Despite the lengthy description above, the process is actually very short. From the moment the black shadow reaches the camera and pauses for a moment until the mixed noise disappears again, the entire process only takes 3 seconds.

Next…

"ah!"

Due to the suddenness of the scary scene and the fact that it came and went so quickly, the newcomers could not recover until the faceless man disappeared from the camera. Then his expression suddenly changed and he screamed loudly. Both men and women were frightened and were frightened by the preview of the video for the first time.

Half dead, in fact, not only the newcomers reacted violently, but even Chen Shuihong, who had experienced a mission before, was so frightened that his whole body shook wildly and his fat body trembled. Maybe he was shaking so hard that his center of gravity was unstable and his fat body tilted, almost

He almost fell to the ground. If Chen Xiaoyao, who was beside him, didn't have quick eyesight and quick hands to help him, the middle-aged fat man would have rolled over and fell. As for Li Tianheng, as the second person with the fewest missions after Chen Shuihong, the young man was also frightened.

The specific reaction was not much better than that of Chen Shuihong. Although he was not shaking all over, his forehead was covered with cold sweat, which still revealed his inner thoughts, revealing the young man's uncontrollable panic and restlessness.

Fortunately, the rest of the people were relatively calm. The typical representative was undoubtedly the senior person, among whom He Fei was the calmest. Having experienced countless narrow escapes, not only was he not frightened by the scene, but he opened his eyes even more when something unusual happened.

Staring at the screen, a premonition came to mind...

He had a premonition that the matter was not over yet, and the result would soon unfold before his eyes!

He Fei guessed correctly.

I don’t know whether it was a malfunction of the camera or the signal interference capability of the Faceless Man himself. As the Faceless Man in the video suddenly disappeared and moved away from the camera, the noise disappeared and the snowflakes disappeared. Just like this, the Faceless Man miraculously returned to normal after he disappeared.

, however, as soon as the lens was restored, the lens that had been stationary just now also suddenly turned around, suddenly changing direction and turning around in an untimely manner.

That's right, it's not a change of scene, but a reversal of direction. The camera changes direction 180 degrees at a very fast speed, turning to the rear in a completely unexpected way. However, it's okay if it doesn't move. As the camera rotates, the scene changes, including He Fei.

Without exception, the expressions of all the senior people changed suddenly, and they all showed expressions of disbelief and shock!

And the shock was also accompanied by strong fear.

because……

They saw a horrifying picture. At this moment, in this latest sudden picture, everyone discovered children. The four children who were playing happily half a minute ago now all fell to the ground, lying motionless on the forest floor together!

They are all dead, all dead.

The evidence lies in the fact that the lens gave a close-up view and deliberately stayed close to the ground after turning the direction.

On the ground, the children were lying on their backs with their eyes wide open. In addition to their dull pupils and faces as gray as dead, the desperate expressions in their eyes clearly showed that the children had experienced pain before they died, and the pain came from the cause of death. At this moment, through the lens,

Everyone can clearly see 4

Three of the corpses had obvious strangulation marks on their necks, which was undoubtedly homicide. The only strange thing was that the boy who was responsible for arresting the people before was lying under the tree with his head covered in blood. Judging from the blood stains remaining on the tree trunks, this boy

The little boy apparently committed suicide by hitting a tree!?

4 people, 3 committed suicide and 1 committed suicide.

What's going on?

In just half a minute, all the children playing died like this? What happened during this period? And...

What is the connection between the death of the child and the faceless man from earlier?

With many mysteries in his mind, He Fei tried to find the answer. He wanted to discover the progress through the video and understand the follow-up process. Unfortunately, he was disappointed because the corpses of the four children who died tragically in the woods were the last scene of the entire video. The scene was frozen here and the video ended here.

Finish.

As the video ends and the screen turns black, several lines of blood-red text appear on the screen:

Mission name: Hessian Ghost.

Mission location: Dallowam area, California, United States.

Mission goal: The executor needs to survive in the mission world for 7 days to be considered as completing the mission.

Mission rules: The Dalosun area refers to the area within a radius of 20 square kilometers with Weir Farm as the center. During the mission, executors are strictly prohibited from leaving the area. Violators will be wiped out. At the same time, a certain dangerous entity will also target all activities in the mission area.

People carry out indiscriminate attacks.

Non-mandatory side task a: To protect Will from death, each executor can gain two survival points.

Non-mandatory side task b: Protect Tom from death, then each executor can gain two survival points.

Mission difficulty: Special level.

Note (1): After completing this mission, the reward is unknown.

Note (2): After completing the mission, the execution team will receive one of the exclusive keys to the Hell Reincarnation Station.

………

The text message stayed on the screen for about 1 minute and then disappeared. Then the screen turned black and there was no sound again. The originally dark carriage No. 1 also became bright again, but the scene was dead silent and silent.

If you zoom in and take a closer look, at this moment, under the light, you can see that most of the senior people present, especially the senior members headed by He Fei, have collectively solidified as agreed in advance, and have been in a state of silence from beginning to end.

In sluggish movement!

Why the weird reaction? Why the freeze?

The reason is too simple, or unless these people are blind, everyone will have noticed the end of the message and the note at the end, that is...

After completing the mission, the execution team will receive one of the exclusive keys to the Hell Reincarnation Station.

Golden Key!!!

So what is one of the so-called exclusive keys to Hell Reincarnation Station if it’s not a gold key? The bronze key and the silver key have already been obtained in previous missions, and now the keys are released, so there is no doubt that once this mission is completed, the team will

The key obtained will definitely be a golden key!

Until now, everyone still clearly remembers the explanation of the key when they cursed:

There are three keys of this type, namely the Bronze Key of Hell Reincarnation Station, the Silver Key of Hell Reincarnation Station, and the Gold Key of Hell Reincarnation Station. After collecting three of them, the Hell Train will drive towards the Hell Reincarnation Station on its own.

, and the door to the Hell Reincarnation Station can only be opened after collecting three keys. All three are indispensable. When the executor enters the Hell Reincarnation Station, the cursed space will open a new world to the executor.

Hell Reincarnation Station, these five words together may sound like a regional term at first, but then again, this is just a guess. After all, the cursed space is mysterious and no one is sure of the true meaning of this word.

No one can guess where it is, but there is a saying

Well said, it's natural to ask the boat to arrive at the bridge. Although I don't know what other people think about this matter, at least He Fei has already made up his mind, that is, he must collect the three exclusive keys no matter what, and then go to the Hell Reincarnation Station. This is not only

It is his personal goal and also the unanimous goal of everyone in the team.

"It seems that our previous guesses were basically correct, and the curse indeed believes that the time has come."

After a long silence, a sentence broke the silence of the carriage, and the voice came exactly from He Fei's mouth.

Obviously, as the captain of the team and the leader of everyone, the university knows what he has to say no matter what in this case, so as to break the deadlock and return to normal. Of course, even if he does not speak or point out, he is still a smart person.

The members present can still detect the key to the problem from the last message. Unfortunately, because everyone has never been to the Hell Reincarnation Station,

Regarding this issue, He Fei only mentioned it briefly and looked at the people in the back row. Then, without anyone reminding them, everyone had already refocused their attention on the direction of the task. After all,

Everyone knows clearly in their hearts that whether it is obtaining the golden key or entering the reincarnation station of hell, all goals have one basic premise, and that is to stay alive!

If you can't even survive and successfully survive this seven-day supernatural mission, then everything will be empty talk.

Then……

Maybe he discovered something from the previous video preview or noticed something from the image. Zhao Ping took the lead in talking about the key points. Yes, as soon as He Fei finished speaking, the man with glasses who had been frowning in thought immediately spoke.

He said an English word that made He Fei and some people present suddenly familiar:

"slenderman."

Maintaining a solemn expression, the moment the bespectacled man said that English word, He Fei, Cheng Ying and Qian Xueling, who are relatively exposed to the Internet in real life, nodded in agreement. Of course, some people understood.

There must be someone who doesn't understand. Strictly speaking, only a few people at the scene can understand that English vocabulary. As for other executors, including Peng Hu and Chen Xiaoyao, they really don't understand it. Although you can

Interpret it as only Zhao

The four equals understand English, but in fact, even if Zhao Ping speaks not English but Chinese, the others except Zhao Ping still cannot understand the meaning. As the saying goes, if you don’t understand, you should ask. In addition, he always talks a lot, and once he hears it,

Someone was speaking English furiously at the scene. Chen Xiaoyao was immediately unhappy. He left his seat and stood up, and then asked Zhao Ping in an impatient tone: "What? Senior Zhao, what are you talking about? Can you please stop speaking in foreign languages? And you?"

What do you mean by what you just said?"

Chen Xiaoyao's impatient and curious inquiry instantly resonated with the people around him. Yes, even if you, Zhao Jingyan, are well-educated and understand foreign languages, even if some people at the scene can understand English as well as you, most people will not understand it after all!

Sure enough, since he also couldn't understand English vocabulary, Taoist Chen trailed off. Peng Hu, who had been scratching his head, followed closely and urged: "Yes, yes, Chen Xiaoyao is right. Zhao Ping, please explain.

So what does sl mean?"

Faced with two senior people asking questions one after another, if nothing else happened, it stands to reason that Zhao Ping would publish the answers and translate them immediately after listening to the questions. However, who would have thought that facing two senior people asking questions one after another, the man with glasses chose to ignore it, and just like that

Chen Xiaoyao, Peng Hu, Li Tianheng and other people present who did not understand English looked expectantly and turned their heads and bowed their heads in silence, as if they had not heard the inquiry and were just thinking and ignoring others.

Grass!!!

Seeing that the well-dressed and elegant scum ignored him, Taoist Chen and the bald man were both furious for a moment! If Chen Xiaoyao didn't dare to attack Zhao Ping verbally, then Peng Hu, who had always had a bad temper and got angry, obviously didn't.

He had no scruples, and the bespectacled man’s indifference really made him quite angry, but just

When the bald man was about to stand up with a knot in his forehead, Qian Xueling made up for it in time. Realizing that Zhao Ping was now a sinner, the beautiful imperial sister hurriedly stood up and left her seat to explain. Instead of Zhao Ping, she explained to everyone including Peng Hu: "Wait a minute.

, everyone, listen to me, slenderman translated into Chinese means slender ghost."

Slender ghost?

"Hey, sister Xueling, what is the lanky ghost? Could it be the faceless man in the suit who appeared in the video before?"

As mentioned many times in the past, there are no fools who can survive in the cursed space until now. Not only are there no fools, on the contrary, they are all smart and have extraordinary understanding. As expected, Qian Xueling said this,

Peng Hu instantly connected this weird name with the faceless man in the video.

"Well, yes, Brother Peng, you are right. In fact, Zhao Ping is not the only one who thinks so. When I first saw the faceless man in a suit in the video, I also thought of the lanky ghost. As for the lanky ghost, what is the difference between the lanky ghost and the lanky ghost?

What is it? Well, to put it simply, it is an urban legend, an urban legend widely circulated in Europe and the United States.

There are many fictional existences with mysterious rumors in the real world. They may not be famous in the East, but they are quite famous in Europe and the United States. As for why I know, it mainly comes from the fact that I have been fortunate enough to see such things online.

Legend has it that I also learned the information about the Slender Ghost from online information."

Yes, in the face of Peng Hu's curious inquiry, Qian Xueling told the truth directly and truthfully. She said it was so, and it was actually the same. As she just explained in her answer, I believe that almost everyone who often browses the web or likes to follow supernatural columns

I have heard about the urban legend about the slender ghost. As early as Zhao Ping said the strange term "slender ghost", He Fei, Cheng Ying and Qian Xueling had a rough impression in their minds. The reason is very simple.

Zhao

Ping is an elite lawyer in the real world, and his work is inseparable from the computer network. He Fei is a college student who often goes online to post bars and read forums in his spare time. Cheng Ying is a professional killer who often travels around the world.

We have long been accustomed to it. This is indeed in line with Qian Xueling's explanation above. Only those who frequently access the Internet have the opportunity to come into contact with rumors. On the contrary, those who do not frequently access the Internet will have difficulty in knowing the urban legend of the Slender Ghost.

As the saying goes, different environments determine different experiences, and different experiences lead to more knowledge. If Zhao Ping, He Fei, Cheng Ying, and Qian Xueling were lucky enough to learn about this because they often contacted the Internet in real life, then Chen Xiaoyao and Peng

The two tigers have become

It’s a negative lesson. In the real world, Chen Xiaoyao lives in the mountains all year round, far away from society. In such a living environment, let alone the Internet, there may not even be an electric light. And Peng Hu is in the army, and he is restricted by the rules of the army.

I also rarely have access to the Internet.

The picture returns to reality...

The urban legend of the Slender Ghost?

A fictional being who is quite famous in reality?

The result was exactly as expected. When he heard that there were many legends about this thing in reality, Chen Xiaoyao immediately became energetic. Before anyone else could speak, Taoist Chen stretched his neck and asked curiously: "Eh? Sister Xueling, what are you doing?

Say you know the information about the faceless man? Then what are you waiting for? Come on, tell me everything you know!"
