There is a long and narrow beach here, and there are many black rocks at the connection between the beach and the sea. The most conspicuous reef is more than five meters high, in the shape of a human skull, standing "facing" towards the sea.
This skull-shaped reef is the "Wanghai Reef", from which this place got its name.
Outside the crystal realm, you can see the "real sky". Therefore, people at Wanghai Reef at this time can just see a red sun setting in the west.
Creaking——
The sound of the metal shaft turning started again, announcing that a small tricycle was approaching.
"Long time no see..." Billy quickly parked the car next to the big rock and said.
On Wanghai Reef, a lonely figure stood alone, admiring the afterglow of the setting sun.
He didn't look back, but simply responded: "What a rare visitor...are you here to save your brother on the island?"
"He's been rescued." Billy said, raising his little arm and pointing in the direction he came from, "Look, he's waiting for me over there."
The man on the rock turned his head and glanced at Bill, who was a few hundred meters away. Bill was looking around with an expression like @_@ at the moment...
"Heh... what's that next to him? Zongzi made by Fanye?" the man asked with a chuckle.
"Yes, and the stuffing is the meat of silkworm mothers." Billy replied.
"Whatever..." The man shrugged, responded in an indifferent tone, and then said, "Let's tell you why you're here."
"Sigh... the clothes are not as good as new, and the people are not as good as old..." Billy said in a sad tone, "I just came to visit an old friend whom I haven't seen for a long time. Is there any other reason?" He paused and continued,
"Master Xing, after all, we studied under the same teacher, so we can be considered brothers and sisters... Why should you..."
"Don't do this." The torturer interrupted Billy angrily, turned around, and glared at Billy.
"I get angry when I see you..." the torturer said coldly, "I will always remember what 'that old guy' said before he drove me away... 'You are just a sadist. And Billy is the artist.
.You can only give people pain, but he can give people salvation'...Humph...This is really a great insult."
As he spoke, he raised his legs and took a quick step, jumped off Wanghai Reef, and stood in front of the tricycle.
When viewed up close, the appearance of this punishment god is almost the same as that of a human being. He is about 1.9 meters tall, has a medium build, and has a white complexion. His long gray hair is draped over his shoulders; he has a very serious face.
His face has a broad forehead, narrow eyebrows and cold eyes, a bulbous nose, thick lips, and a wide chin... He also has two curly beards full of Mexican flavor.
"How could that old guy have thought..." Master Xing continued what he just said, "A few years later, I became one of the gods in the multiverse, the most capable assistant of the Lord of Time, and the chief designer of Jui Demon Island.
; And you... are just a bastard who fell into chaos, a fugitive. Even before you became a fugitive, you were just a juror in the Court of Truth." He sneered, "Huh... this is really a great irony.
"
"I... indeed just came to visit you..." Billy continued. "Why do you need to say that..."
"Ha!" the torturer interrupted, "Really... I really didn't see that there is such a relationship between you and me that we can visit each other..." He touched his beard and looked down at Billy,
He snorted coldly. "Although we are 'teachers from the same school', you and I have never been on the same page, right? This... even a fool like your brother can see that."
"Watch your words." Billy's tone suddenly turned cold.
"Ah... I'm sorry." The torturer leaned down and put his face in front of Billy, "Your brother is not an idiot, he is a big idiot..."
"I haven't seen you for more than a hundred years. You are very good at annoying people..." Billy said solemnly, his eyeballs flashed with a strange light, as if he had murderous intentions.
However...he still held back.
"Hmph... forget it." Suddenly, Billy restrained his murderous intent and calmly continued, "Anyway, your time is running out..."
"Huh?" The torturer straightened up again and said suspiciously, "What did you say?"
"Haha..." Billy smiled, "It won't take long, you will know..." As he said that, he turned the front of the car and pedaled towards Bill.
"What the hell..." the torturer muttered thoughtfully, and then shouted to Billy loudly, "Are you here just to talk nonsense to me? What is this? What on earth are you?
What's the meaning?"
Billy still did not answer the other party's question, he just continued without looking back: "Whether you appreciate it or not... Out of friendship, I will give you two more pieces of advice... First, don't believe in superficial appearances;
Secondly, don’t underestimate that guy who is better at annoying people than you..."
…………
Having said that, let’s return to the players.
After leaving the resting place, Brother Jue and the others walked unhurriedly for another hour.
During this period of time, the light on the surrounding crystals naturally became darker and darker, and finally... finally turned into a completely non-luminous state. And the sky above them, showing the "reflection" of Jui Demon Island, also changed.
It became pitch black.
Of course, this is nothing. From the perspective of Brother Jue, who prepares for the worst in everything, it is all expected.
But the problem is... after "darkness", something even weirder happened...
I don't know when... an eye actually appeared in the dark sky.
Yes, it's one, not a pair...
It was a giant white eye, with its eye sockets and whites floating faintly like burning white flames, and its pupil was an amber vertical line.
All creatures (including players) in the crystal realm will feel that this eye is staring at them no matter when, where, or at what angle they look at the sky...
When they first discovered this thing, the four players were on guard for a while, fearing that something like rays would be sprayed from the sky... But after observing for a few minutes, they found that there was nothing unusual about this eye. Maybe it was just used by the system to create
A means of pressure…
"I said...it's a little too quiet around here..." Brother Ma, who was walking in the middle of the team, thought.
"Actually, it's so quiet during the day," Honghu, who was in charge of the post-interruption, continued, "It's just that when the light is sufficient, people rely more on vision, so you didn't notice it."
"Speaking of vision..." Jibu in front continued, "Do you think...that eye in the sky is the 'Gaze Eye'?" (Feng Bujue had previously learned about all four guards from Fuling.
name and have already told it to my teammates)
"Not necessarily." Brother Jue, who was walking at the front, turned back half-jokingly, "Maybe that is Sauron, a fictional character in Tolkien's novels who has cataracts. What Brother Jue is naturally referring to here is Sauron.
Sauron, the spiritual being in the third era. He often appears as an eye), or... it's just a set that looks like an eyeball."
"What are you doing... You've almost used the Journey to the West jokes, are you ready to do the Lord of the Rings jokes?" Atobe replied with blank eyes, "Countless gay jokes about Frodo and Sam are already on your lips.
right!"
"I'm just using jokes to lighten the atmosphere." Feng Bujue said, "We have been searching aimlessly for an hour and still have made no progress; coupled with this depressing atmosphere, it can easily lead to a loss of concentration.
"
"Your rambling like this will cause our attention to decrease..." Atobe continued.
"Ha..." Feng Bujue sneered. He turned around and glanced at his teammates, "Aren't you rambling before I spoke?" He paused, as if he wanted to leave them to think.
Time, "Maybe you haven't realized...the environment has already begun to affect you. From the time when the surroundings completely darkened, the longest silence between you only lasted three minutes. Recall it carefully...every three minutes
In less than a minute, you can't help but say a few words of useless nonsense to relieve the tension. This is because...if you remain silent, darkness and silence will begin to disturb your thoughts and make you
The fear gradually increased.”
"Listen to what you said...don't you feel anything about darkness and silence?" Atobe replied.
"Well...hey hey hey..." Feng Bujue used the hey hey hey method to avoid the question in a cowardly manner.
"Okay, I understand what you mean." Honghu interrupted. "In short...it's easy to think randomly if you don't say a word, and talking too much will distract you. And proper conversation...you can maintain a good spirit.
state."
"That's right." Feng Bujue nodded, "So we'd better do it every two minutes..."
Suddenly, his words stopped abruptly and his steps stopped.
"Hey." Brother Jue's tone suddenly changed. He undoubtedly saw something, "There seems to be something in front..."
Upon hearing this, the teammates took a few steps forward.
Everyone looked forward along the light of the [Composite Anti-gravity Ejector], and actually saw... a black shadow swaying in the wind.
The shadow was floating in the air, with a rope around its neck. Due to the distance, the players could only see the outline of a human figure, but they didn't know what it would look like up close. However... they all knew that according to the
This game has always been urinary, and if you get too close it will definitely trigger a frightening incident...
"This shouldn't be someone who committed suicide by hanging, right..." Brother Ma lowered his voice and muttered softly.
"How do you know?" Atobe also asked in a low voice.
"There is no stool at my feet." Xiao Ma replied.
"It's normal to not have a stool." Feng Bujue touched it and mused, "His feet were two meters away from the ground. Did he hang himself while standing on the coast lifeguard's observation chair? And...
...Look at the rope around his neck. The other end of the rope is tied directly to the crystal high up, instead of hanging around the crystal and then knotting...So, according to my guess, there are two
Possibly. The first one is suicide. The process is... He first climbed up the crystal pillar, put one end of the rope around his neck, tied the other end to the crystal pillar, and then jumped down from there. The second one was suicide...
…There are many ways to do it…”
"You guys should stop it!" Honghu lowered his voice and cut off their nonsense, "Is now the time to play reasoning? What kind of suicide? The method and form have nothing to do with it! This is obviously some kind of horrible thing.
Trigger the event! Be more serious!"
"Well, that makes sense." Feng Bujue's expression straightened and he nodded, "Let's do it... I'll go sweep the mines first and get a feel for it, and you guys wait for me here."
"Oh... I didn't expect that you would actually come forward to face such a shocking scene?" Atobe asked.
"Ha, what's this?" Feng Bujue smiled easily, "It's just a hanging corpse, how scary can it be?"
"Okay, I have the guts!" Tianma Xingkong turned around to the face with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and patted Brother Jue on the shoulder.
"Oh? You said 'you have the guts', right?" Feng Bujue turned around and looked at Brother Ma with a malicious look.
"Yeah, just pretend I didn't say it..." Tianma Xingkong instinctively smelled the smell of conspiracy.
But how could Brother Jue let him go...
Feng Bujue, in turn, put his hand on Tianma Xingkong's shoulder and pushed him forward a few steps: "Okay! As a hero who is better than me, I guess you can't hold it anymore! Just...
…You can just pick up any guy and attack him, and we’ll cover you from behind.”
"This line of yours sounds familiar...why did it change to me first...ah..." Brother Ma was pushed out before he could finish his words.
He didn't know why, but after a few conversations with no sense of contradiction, he became a pathfinder...
Furfur... furfur...
The dead body hanging in the air was still shaking and making some noise. It sounded like the sound of wind blowing through clothes, or it might be from the tight rope...
The closer to the dead body, the more obvious the sound became.
After walking about twenty steps, Tianma Xingkong could no longer hear the breathing and whispers of his teammates. He could only hear the strange noise coming from the corpse, and his own breathing...
"Huh...it's okay, it's just a dead person." Tianma Xingkong's footsteps gradually slowed down, and he muttered to himself, "There are not even a hundred but eighty dead people seen in the horror paradise. This kind of hanging corpse
I've seen the scene in the movie eighty times if not a hundred times...what else..." His words became more and more like self-consolation, "As a hero, how can you shrink here..."
After walking another twenty steps, Xiao Ma arrived less than five meters away from the target.
Although the corpse's face was always covered by hair and could not be seen clearly, as he approached, Tianma Xingkong always held up his flashlight and let the light shine on the corpse's head. Because Xiao Ma had a strange intuition, as if...
...As soon as he removes the light, the corpse will steal a glance at him.
