Under the time limit, Feng Bujue must make a decision whether to believe in his teammates' abilities or his own judgment. This inner struggle is another kind of pressure exerted by the system in addition to fear. Let's not talk about Feng Bujue for now.
Regardless of the outcome of his choice, he has already lost in this game between the system and the players. Now that he is distracted and considering something that cannot be accurately concluded, it will only bring danger to himself.
At this moment, a baby's cry suddenly sounded and reached Feng Bujue's ears. He turned his head following the sound and saw a dark and empty corridor in front of him. The sound came from the corner at the end of this corridor.
.
He did not rush over, but looked down at his phone. The time was 40:27, and in eighteen seconds, he would miss the opportunity to dial.
In the end, he pressed the speed dial button. Although they had only experienced a script together, he was still willing to believe in Xiyu's strength. In addition, he felt that if he did not make this call, then in the next fifteen minutes
Here, the other party will also be under similar psychological pressure as yourself.
At this point, he has fully understood that as long as he can do it, he must dial. No matter whether the two people can connect smoothly, dialing can at least prove the safety of one of them in disguise. Mathematically speaking, as long as the call is initiated, there are 50
There is a % chance that neither party will be chased by ghosts; but if you don't dial, one party will be chased 100% of the time.
beep--
After only one ring, Siyu answered the phone: "I'm fine, don't worry."
"Well..." Feng Bujue was indeed happy to hear her voice, but then he said: "Didn't you say... don't ask the other person if they are okay?"
About two seconds of silence…
Then, there was a beep from the phone, and the next second, the call was interrupted.
There is only one explanation for this situation... Xiyu said a silencing word to Feng Bujue very unhappily without any insult, and then hung up the phone on his own initiative.
Listening to the busy tone of beep, beep, Feng Bujue stood there blankly, holding the phone in front of his eyes: "Hey! What is this? Throw my phone! It was you who said not to ask each other if we were okay before.
Oh! Now you are actually swearing! And being able to curse successfully shows that you are justified!" He yelled at the phone with his eyes wide open, but the call had been interrupted and Shiyu couldn't hear him. He was just venting one-sidedly.
: "Idiot? Idiot? Fool? Those are the only words! What did I do? You don't have to hang up the phone after scolding me! If I had known better, I wouldn't have called you!"
In front of him, the baby's cry became louder and louder, constantly penetrating into his ears, just like the song sang: "Woo wow, woo wow... the baby's cry is in his ears."
Feng Bujue closed the flip of the phone, held it in the palm of his left hand, passed the flashlight to this hand, and then took out the kitchen knife from his bag, holding it behind his right hand, and walked forward quickly.
Turning the corner of the corridor, he immediately saw a basket on the ground, which looked like a shoe-shaped bamboo basket used for picnics. There was a baby lying in the basket, and the baby's body was wrapped in a white towel, with only a baby exposed.
There is nothing unusual about the head and face, like that of a newborn child with its eyes closed and its facial features not yet developed.
Feng Bujue let out a long breath of bad breath, then squatted down, looked at the baby, and said calmly: "What do you want, say it. If you can't say it within thirty seconds, your head will move."
The baby was still crying, and it was crying harder: "Aww..." The cry became extremely sharp, just like the sound made by fingernails scratching the glass, which is as heart-breaking as the sound it makes.
"Cry!" Feng Bujue raised his voice and said, "Crying counts as time!"
His gangster-style questioning method brought about very bad consequences. The baby slowly opened his eyes. The eyes under his eyelids were like blood-colored amber, and the facial features squeezed together showed a ferocious smile.
meaning.
According to legend, babies who first come into the world have yin and yang eyes with three souls and seven souls that have not yet gathered together. If such a baby dies, he will be extremely resentful and more ferocious than ordinary earthbound spirits.
In front of Feng Bujue, the cradle containing the baby turned into a human trunk in the blink of an eye. The face of the deceased was full of horror, all his limbs were missing, and the internal organs in the chest and abdomen were taken out and scattered around.
On the ground. And the baby was lying in the hollowed-out body of the corpse, smiling ferociously at Feng Bujue.
"The bones serve as the cradle and the skin serves as the bag, right?" Feng Bujue also smiled at the other party. Not only was he not afraid, but he was still a little angry.
While he was talking, he caught a glimpse of something out of the corner of his eye. When he looked up, he saw that the corridor was filled with similar corpses. All of them had their internal organs ripped out and all their limbs missing. Their death conditions were extremely miserable.
"You are reincarnated as a hermit crab." Feng Bujue said: "Let me guess...well...your mother is a student here. She was played with her feelings by a teacher or a boy, and she was nearly ten months pregnant.
Later, she came to the school to beg for him, but was still ruthlessly rejected. In the end, she could only commit suicide in this corridor, and before she died, she dug you out with her own hands out of resentment? "
A novelist is a novelist, and his ability to brainstorm plots and translate them into language is strong.
After hearing the words, the ghost baby's laughter suddenly stopped. The next second, it turned into a heart-rending scream. The sound was so terrifying that it shattered all the window glass on one side of the corridor. Feng Bujue's survival value
It also fell downwards.
It seemed that this monster could not be dealt with peacefully. Feng Bujue quickly raised his knife and stabbed the ghost baby. Unexpectedly, the tip of the knife failed to land successfully, and his wrist was suddenly caught by something.
He turned around and saw that there was an arm stretching out from the wall out of thin air, blocking his attack. It seemed that the limbs of these corpses were still nearby...
Fortunately, the ghost baby's high-pitched voice was limited in time and it stopped after seven or eight seconds. Otherwise, Feng Bujue's survival points would have been drained. But the situation was still not good, but on both walls of the corridor,
Many hands and feet stretched out one after another, each of them can move...
Feng Bujue knew that procrastination was not good for him, so he decisively slashed the arm with his backhand and used a kitchen knife. Unfortunately, human arms are not so easy to cut off, and the same goes for the arms of dead bodies.
The blade of the kitchen knife was embedded in the flesh of the ghost arm, and a large amount of blood flowed down, into the torso of the corpse, and poured on the body of the ghost baby. The baby actually laughed again, and the sound it made was incandescent.
When it enters the ears, it makes people feel heartbroken. If the game had not limited the pain, Feng Bujue might have fainted.
Seeing that he could not escape from the clamp, Feng Bujue quickly put down the flashlight and mobile phone in his other hand, took out Mario's pipe wrench from his bag, swung it down with lightning speed, and hit the ghost baby directly on the head.
This time he succeeded, and was very lucky to trigger the [Concussion] effect.
After the monster's body was affected by the skill, all the moving severed limbs stopped. Feng Bujue took advantage of the situation and let his right hand break free from the restraint. He used both hands to beat the ghost baby in the "Corpse Cradle" hard. That scene
It can be said that flesh and blood are everywhere, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it has a bit of anti-human tendency.
Soon, all the limbs protruding from the walls disappeared. It seemed that the monster was no longer able to survive. I thought this was a sign that the ghost baby was about to be eliminated. Unexpectedly, a new vision appeared immediately.
Feng Bujue discovered that the face of the dead body containing the ghost baby suddenly became blurry. Gradually, the image of the face changed into his own. Moreover, he began to speak, and even his voice sounded harmonious.
He said the same: "It hurts... stop... stop!" The corpse's voice changed from a groan to a roar, and it twisted its back and struggled to move its torso.
Just when Feng Bujue hesitated for a moment, the ghost baby disappeared under his nose, leaving only an empty abdominal cavity and some internal organs in the corpse's torso.
Feng Bujue knew that he had been deceived. The monster had undoubtedly used a blind trick to get a chance to breathe, and took advantage of the situation to escape elsewhere. He immediately put away the kitchen knife, picked up the flashlight on the ground, stood up, and swept it with the aperture.
The hollowed out corpses in the corridor are trying to find where the ghost baby has escaped.
"Hee hee hee..." Another burst of hair-raising laughter sounded. This time, the laughter didn't look like it was coming from a baby at all. The scariest part was that the sound came from the location...
…very close.
Feng Bujue realized something. He lowered his head and looked at his chest. What he saw was enough to make anyone's heart break... The ghost baby covered in blood was curled up and lying on his side.
In his abdomen, a small hand clung to one of his ribs, and waves of sinister laughter came from his body.
"Do you want me to commit suicide with this kind of hallucination?" Feng Bujue said calmly, completely ignoring the scene and reaching out to touch his luggage. He knew that what he saw in his eyes was just an hallucination, and his sense of touch was not affected.
I can still feel my clothes and the backpack I'm wearing.
He took out the Eye of Hatred and put it on himself while saying: "I almost forgot about this thing." At this time, he heard another usage of this equipment.
After Feng Bujue put on this equipment, he used the aperture of the flashlight to scan every corpse and every place in the corridor. As long as the ghost baby was still creating hallucinations, he would definitely be exposed.
Sure enough, when his eyes fell on a corpse that seemed to be hollowed out, the Eye of Hatred reacted. There was a monster here that was aiming its attack at the player.
Feng Bujue strode over and raised and lowered his hands without hesitation. This time, the monster, which had been severely injured, was really helpless.

Almost at the same time, two system prompts popped up, indicating that at the moment Feng Bujue finally lost the ghost baby, Xiyu also completed the task of the thirteenth step.
"Hmph..." Feng Bujue snorted coldly and laughed at himself: "It seems that I am worried in vain."
…………
In the main building, Xiyu sat on the ground with his back against the corridor wall.
Looking into the corridor beside her, there were countless corpses of ghosts and monsters along the way. There were rivers of blood on the floor. The strong smell of blood and the stench from the monsters were enough to make people avoid them.
But at this moment, she was unable to move anywhere else.
The lantern and sword were placed on the floor beside her. Her right hand was holding the mobile phone, and her left hand was covering the wound on her right waist. The blood from the wound had not stopped yet and was still seeping out from between her fingers.
This floor is led by thirteen steps. Once you step into it, you cannot escape and there is nowhere to hide. The space is filled with a large number of monsters, some of which can scare people so much just by their appearance.
Anyone who walks in will either be killed and become one of those evil spirits; or, like Xiyu, kill them all...
In fact, during the last phone call, Xiyu's condition was already very bad. She was lying to Feng Bujue when she said, "I'm fine, don't worry."
When it was close to 40:00, Xiyu happened to be in the middle of the battle. Although she was injured at the time, she still adjusted her breathing consciously and quickly answered the phone. She also knew very well that even if she showed any abnormality,
It will only become a mental burden for teammates.
Now, Xiyu has finally cleared away the monsters in this space, and she must rest for a while. Her survival value and physical fitness value have yet to be restored, and the bleeding state cannot be cured for the time being. Only by maintaining such a still state and pressing the wound can it stop.
Loss of survival value.
In a situation like this, the system will not judge it as a "passive game" because the player has to stop activities due to a specific situation. In the "normal" difficulty, the system will not force the player who is already on the verge of death to continue to act.
.As for the "Nightmare" difficulty, there are two theories...
Siyu paid attention to the time on her phone. There were still ten minutes until the next call. She didn't want to face any "ghost chase" in her current state, so she had to finish dialing the next time she called.
After the previous phone call, Feng Bujue felt annoyed, while Siyu felt aggrieved. Objectively speaking, both of them were responsible for this matter, but the main responsibility... still had to be placed on Feng Bujue. Who asked him to
He replied with an embarrassing remark without realizing it.
At any time, even if it is justified, it is best for a man not to correct a woman's inconsistency...
Tick tock...tick tock...
Just when Xiyu thought he could take a breath, in the darkness in the distance, the sound of water drops quietly sounded...
