In addition to everyone getting an S-level strength card in this secret room, before entering the secret room, the four gatekeepers promised that as long as they can clear the four-in-one secret room, they will be rewarded with a card.
Team resurrection card.
Xiao Lou remembered this clearly. After his teammates finished drawing the cards, he immediately stepped forward and asked the four gatekeepers: "Where is the team resurrection card that we agreed on before?"
Sister Hongtao raised her finger slightly, and a card appeared in front of Xiao Lou.
The teammates came over to take a closer look. This card was obviously different from the cards everyone drew. The cards they usually drew had four colors of hearts, spades, clubs and diamonds painted on the back. But on the back of this card,
But it has the same carved pattern as the cover of the contract, as if it were a smaller version of the contract.
There are a few lines of blood-red small letters written on the front of the card——
[Team Card: Nirvana]
Rarity:s
Description: A fixed reward for perfectly clearing the four-in-one hidden room.
Effect of use: Everyone in the contract shares this team card. When everyone dies in the normal chamber or is eliminated in the nightmare chamber, they can choose to use or not use this card. If you use the card, you can immediately
Resurrection and return to teammates. If not used, they will continue to enter the nightmare chamber. Those eliminated in the nightmare chamber will disappear completely.
Limited cards are destroyed after being used once.
As soon as everyone read the description of this card, they saw the card suddenly disappear in front of everyone. Xiao Lou's contract lit up with a soft red light. He opened the book and found that this card appeared at the bottom of the contract.
Last page.
It is not in anyone's card bag, but in the contract. This is also in line with the setting of "Team Shared Card". In future secret rooms, as long as a team member dies, it should be able to be activated immediately.
Unfortunately it can only be used once.
Although the existence of this card has given everyone an extra life, Xiao Lou hopes that this card will never be used.
He put away the contract, looked at Sister Hongtao and said, "I remember, we finally arrested Zhao Sen and triggered the hidden ending. It was prompted that there were additional rewards? Is there a reward card?"
Sister Hongtao smiled slightly and said, "Indeed, you can check the contract."
Catching Zhao Sen was not the mission of this secret room. Yu Hanjiang just didn’t want Zhao Sen to go unpunished, so he dealt with the murderer of the 2 Hearts. After hearing the words of the heart gatekeeper, Xiao Lou opened the contract and saw the contract
A brand new card appears on the last page of the book.
[Team Card: Voice Headset]
Rarity:s
Description: A fixed reward for triggering the hidden mission in the linked secret room.
Effect of use: After use, you can get a pocket wireless voice headset equal to the number of people in the contract. Wear it in your ears and press it to start a voice call. Teammates on the contract can maintain communication at any time within a distance of 10 kilometers.
Note: Thunderstorm weather, underwater, underground and other environments will not affect the signal of the headset.
But as long as the distance exceeds 10 kilometers, the signal will disappear.
After seeing the card, Ye Qi said excitedly: "Is this an upgraded version of my bug? The range of my bug is only 500 meters, and the bugs can only be separated into 3 pieces, and they can be used to communicate by wearing each other.
The number of voice headsets is equal to the number of people in the contract. In other words, our entire group can wear pocket-sized headsets at the same time and establish a team voice channel at any time?"
Xiao Lou likes this card very much. In a secret room with a modern background, everyone can use the mobile phone WeChat group to solve communication problems. However, once the mobile phone is confiscated, or encounters a secret room background where mobile phones cannot be used, this is not limited by environmental conditions.
"Team Voice Headset" can help them a lot.
So far, all the rewards for the tenth level have been obtained.
Everyone got a card, some were very practical, some were very strange, but they were always S-level cards that were worthy of their frightening experiences these days.
Xiao Lou put away the card package and said: "All the A-level secret rooms have been cleared. Next, can we challenge the S-level secret rooms?"
The four gatekeepers looked at each other.
Ace of Spades said calmly: "The difficulty of the S-level secret room is a step higher than that of the A-level secret room. I suggest you not to challenge it easily. Now that you have so many powerful cards, you can rest assured to stay here."
Is this world a bad place?”
The plum blossom boy also nodded in agreement, looked at Shao Qingge and said: "Especially Mr. Shao, I remember that you still have billions of gold coins left in your card, plus this time you got a priceless sapphire necklace as a reward.
With your ability, you can live a comfortable life in this world. Wouldn't it be nice to have your own villa, buy a few sports cars you like, and sleep until you wake up naturally without having to go to work every day?"
Shao Qingge chuckled lightly and said, "It sounds like a dream life."
The plum blossom boy was about to speak, but Shao Qingge changed the topic and said calmly: "Unfortunately, they are all fake. My identity is fake, and the parents you arranged for me are also fake. Today I am still a rich man, who knows
If you are unhappy tomorrow, will you suddenly make me bankrupt and become a beggar? The card world is a world controlled by you, and I don’t like to be a pawn on the chessboard."
Shao Qingge's words frightened his teammates, but he did tell the truth.
Staying in this world, with so many cards and so much money, their team's life will definitely not be too bad, but no one knows what will be waiting for them next second? Every week's weekly secret room,
What kind of challenges will be arranged for them?
In the final analysis, the rules of this world are decided by the gatekeepers, and they are just pawns in the game.
The rules of the game are to let them go after clearing all the secret rooms. Naturally, they have to work hard to return to the normal world. What's more, many of them have relatives they can't let go and wishes they don't understand in the real world, so they can't stay here and have fun.
comfortable.
Little Loli Fang Pian smiled coldly and said: "Since you are so persistent, as gatekeepers, we have no obligation to continue to persuade you to give up. We will respect the choice of every challenger."
Sister Hongtao smiled and said: "As a friendly reminder, in the previous Chamber of Hearts, you solved the case so smoothly. The key point is that the identities assigned to you every time are helpful in solving the case. For example, Yu Hanjiang, the 4 of Hearts is the conductor,
The 8 of Hearts is the prefect, and the ninth and tenth levels are the police. You can use your identity and position to collect clues and even arrest the murderer."
She paused and looked at Yu Hanjiang. The smile on her face was still gentle, but her eyes instantly turned cold: "But what if I no longer arrange a favorable identity for you, but instead use my identity to hinder you?"
Ask yourself, had Yu Hanjiang not been a policeman in the tenth level, would they have been able to successfully solve the case and carry out the huge organ transplant tissue in one pot? I'm afraid it would have been difficult. The words of the heart gatekeeper are not wrong. In the ninth level, the
During the ten rounds, the cases were all relatively complicated. Yu Hanjiang's identity as a police officer helped him a lot. He could check the information of each suspect at any time and compare fingerprints and genes...
This not only saves everyone a lot of time, but also provides great convenience for everyone in the process of collecting clues.
If he is just an ordinary person, then he can only break into the criminal police team at night to look for information, and he will be arrested if he is not careful.
Thinking of this, Xiao Lou hurriedly said to the Ace of Hearts: "You mean, the S-class secret room will no longer set us up as criminal police officers and forensic doctors to facilitate the investigation of cases?"
The heart guardian raised the corners of his lips slightly and said: "Otherwise, how can it be worthy of the S-level difficulty?"
The teammates looked at each other.
Ace of Spades said coldly: "Since you are not afraid of death and want to continue to the S-level secret room later, please draw the card."
Yu Hanjiang said calmly: "Wait a moment, let us go back and discuss it carefully before making a decision."
Xiao Lou nodded tacitly and said: "Yes, we have to think carefully about matters of life and death and return to the main city first."
The four gatekeepers looked at each other and disappeared in front of everyone in an instant.
Just a moment ago, there was a thick fog in the personal space, and the walls were covered with cards. But in the blink of an eye, everyone returned to the villa in Moon City, and all eight of them came to the familiar living room.
It was already dark by now, and warm lights shone in the distance.
After coming out of the personal space, everyone returned to their original state. Lao Mo was no longer a gray-haired 66-year-old man, and Ye Qi was no longer a 7-year-old child. Qu Wanyue was pregnant inexplicably, and now, the unformed baby in her belly
The baby was also cleared.
All this seemed like a world away, and everyone fell silent for a while.
After a moment, Yu Hanjiang whispered: "Everyone tells us their opinions. Do you still want to continue to pass the level?"
Lao Mo scratched his hair that turned back to black, and said with a wry smile: "I know that it is impossible for me to pass the S-level level based on my personal ability. Thank you for your care during this period. However, my daughter is still waiting in the real world.
Her mother passed away a long time ago, and if I don’t go back, there will be no one to take care of my daughter... So, I will risk my life to go back."
Lao Mo's words made the atmosphere in the entire living room become extremely heavy.
After so long, everyone has become accustomed to the intense and exciting rhythm of the card world, and thought that some things would gradually fade away, but it turns out that those family ties that are thicker than water are rooted in the bone marrow and will never be forgotten.
dropped.
Qu Wanyue looked sad. She lowered her head and gently folded her hands together, saying softly: "Long Sen and I had a car accident on the way to the wedding. My parents, friends, his parents and relatives were all in the hotel auditorium at the time.
I don’t want them to see the two corpses of the bride and groom while they wait for our wedding to be completed. They will definitely not be able to withstand such a blow."
Long Sen hugged Qu Wanyue's shoulders tightly and comforted her silently.
The wedding turned into a funeral, and the red word "happy" was stained with blood. Such a tragedy would be a heartache that the family could not resolve in their lifetime. How could they have the heart to abandon their family and enjoy life in this world?
Liu Qiao's expression was very serious. She said: "No matter what, I have to go back. I have to find a way to save my sister."
Ye Qi's eyes were firm: "I have to go back too. I am the only son of my parents. In order to train me to study music, they have been frugal over the years and spent almost all their money on me. Moreover, I have participated in singing competitions.
After reaching the finals, my parents bought plane tickets to watch me compete. I didn’t want them to go to the game happily and see a corpse!”
Thinking of the scene when he had an accident in reality, Ye Qi couldn't help but clenched his fists hard.
Shao Qingge gently shook his fist and joked: "If I go back with you, your dream will come true soon. The organizer of the singing competition and the boss of the record company are my good friends."
Ye Qi was stunned for a moment, and said with a mixture of laughter and tears: "Mr. Shao, we are discussing things seriously, please stop joking. It's boring to find your buddy through the back door. I have to win the championship based on my strength."
Shao Qingge smiled slightly, took back his hand and looked at Yu Hanjiang and Xiao Lou: "I'm just waiting for you two to express your stance."
The teammates all looked at the two of them.
Until today, everyone knows very well that Yu Hanjiang and Xiao Lou are the two strongest people in this team, especially in Hongtaoguan. Without these two people, it is impossible for them to resolve crisis after crisis. If Yu Hanjiang and Xiao Lou
If Lou is unwilling to go back, then the remaining six of them will not have the confidence to make it to the end.
There was a hint of expectation, even pleading, in the eyes of his teammates.
Xiao Lou's heart trembled slightly.
Everyone has a reason to go back, so why not him?
He has never been in love until now. His parents know his sexual orientation, but they are tolerant and understanding. They are the best parents in the world. He is less than thirty in the real world, and his parents are only in their fifties, so they are still young.
, how could he bear to let the two elders bear the pain of losing their son?
Xiao Lou turned around and met Yu Hanjiang's eyes.
Different from the expectant eyes of other teammates, Yu Hanjiang's eyes were always deep and calm, but when they met Xiao Lou's eyes, they melted slightly with a hint of softness. He whispered: "Going back, isn't it the original intention of us getting together?
?”
I recall that when I first came to Moon City, eight people who had never met before were able to sign a contract with Xiao Lou... just to go back.
Yu Hanjiang said: "So, no matter how difficult it is in the future, we must never forget the reason why we got together in the first place. Naturally, Xiao Lou and I have to go back. Either die or go back, these are the two choices. None of us can
There is no reason to live in this world.”
Yu Hanjiang's decisive words immediately put his teammates at ease.
In fact, what we fear most is not how strong the enemy is, but that our teammates are not mentally strong enough to give up at the critical moment.
Since everyone has the same goal, there is no need to be afraid.
Ye Qi's eyes lit up with excitement: "Great! Everyone is firm in their goals. No matter how difficult it is in the future, at least 7 people will be by their side to face it with everyone. There is nothing to be afraid of."
Yu Hanjiang and Xiao Lou looked at each other.
Xiao Lou noticed what he meant and said with a smile: "It's not just 7 people."
Ye Qi was startled: "Ah?"
Yu Hanjiang said: "It's time to join them. Everyone, get ready. I will take you to see Brother Ninth."
****
【Chapter 360, Ninth Brother】
Who is Brother Nine?
When they heard Yu Hanjiang's words, except for Xiao Lou and Shao Qingge who already knew about it, everyone else was very confused.
Yu Hanjiang explained to everyone: "Lu Jiuchuan is my cousin. In reality, he is Major Lu, the captain of the Navy's Arrow Commando. He died in a mission. I went to pay homage to his tombstone with my family at that time.
I thought I would meet him in the card world."
This explanation left everyone stunned.
People who have been buried in tombstones will actually appear in the card world?
Ye Qi said with a confused face: "Captain Yu, since your cousin has been buried in the tombstone, the gatekeeper still said that we can go back? What will he do after he goes back? Is he pretending to be a corpse?"
Teammates: "..."
Xiaoye's words made everyone dumbfounded.
Xiao Lou Wen said: "Captain Yu also had this kind of doubt when he first met his brother. Later, after our analysis, I speculated that if we successfully passed all the levels and returned to reality, the gatekeepers would probably adjust
At this time point, let us go back to the past with our memories, so that we can avoid accidents and continue to live."
When Qu Wanyue heard this, a hint of excitement appeared on her face: "Professor Xiao means that if we collectively teleport back to the past and know which year and day we will encounter a car accident, we can avoid the accident in advance? For example?
, Ronson and I are getting married on Valentine’s Day, February 14th. If we go back in time, can we change the wedding date to avoid a car accident?”
Xiao Lou nodded: "Theoretically, this is true, otherwise Ninth Brother has been cremated and cannot be resurrected."
Ye Qi scratched his head in confusion and said: "If this is the case, we can survive in reality. But the problem is that if a person goes back to the past with his memories, wouldn't it be able to change other people's lives? For example, if I go back
, someone I know failed to pass the level and go back. If I know what day he will have an accident, can I save him in advance? Then he can survive without clearing the level?"
Xiao Loudao: "I don't understand this question either. Maybe only the gatekeeper can explain it."
Yu Hanjiang said: "The gatekeepers can control time at will, so that the time flow rate in each secret room world is different. That's why Xiao Lou speculates like this on how to let us go back. The final right of interpretation belongs to the gatekeepers. We
What we can do now is to first meet the condition of 'clearing all secret rooms' before we can go back."
The teammates nodded.
Only by clearing the level can you know how to go back. This is also the only solution at present.
Liu Qiao said calmly: "Captain Yu said he would take us to find Brother Ninth. Does that mean your cousin is also willing to join us?"
"Yes." Yu Hanjiang simply concluded, "He once formed a very good team. Unfortunately, they were wiped out in Plum Blossom J. Everyone was eliminated and entered the nightmare chamber. In the end, only four people survived."
"These four people are very strong and willing to cooperate with us." Xiao Lou continued, "If they join the team, the strength of our team will be greatly improved."
"That's great." Ye Qi didn't think much and said excitedly, "The partner that Professor Xiao is looking for is definitely not bad. If there are strong assistants joining us, the spades level will be easier to play in the future, right? Our battle card
It’s still too little.”
"Apart from Ninth Brother, are the other three people worthy of trust?" Liu Qiao asked calmly.
"We were skeptical about this at first, but after a period of investigation, I think it is credible. After all, the three of them are teammates who have lived and died with Brother Ninth. One of them even lost his life in the nightmare chamber.
legs."
Thinking of Tang Ci sitting in a wheelchair, Xiao Lou also had a hint of admiration in his eyes: "After losing his legs, he still survived the nightmare chamber. Such a will is not comparable to that of ordinary people."
"...That's really awesome. You can come out of the nightmare chamber even if you are disabled. If it were me, I wouldn't dare to think about it." Long Sen and Qu Wanyue looked at each other and decided to follow the organization. He smiled and said, "Let's listen
Arrangements made by Professor Xiao and Captain Yu."
"Okay, I'll go talk to Brother Jiu and find a way to meet everyone as soon as possible." After Yu Hanjiang said that, he took out the card [Absolute Domain] - as long as the Absolute Domain is turned on, he can enter the world created by Lu Jiuchuan.
Went to meet my brother.
At this time, the time is just past 24:00, and Absolute Domain will refresh its skills on time at 24:00 every night.
When Yu Hanjiang walked into the domain space, he was surrounded by a calm sea. The stars reflected on the sea were like diamonds that had been broken into pieces and thrown into the sea. The sea and sky were connected into one color, and the vast and magnificent scene made him
I couldn't help but think of the scene when I first met Lu Jiuchuan in Zhou Chang's secret room - it was also a sea like this, and he could stand on the sea as steadily as he stood on the ground.
Yu Hanjiang glanced around, but did not find Lu Jiuchuan. He called out in a low voice, "Brother Ninth?"
There was no sound around, and even his voice was scattered around without any echo, as if it was completely swallowed by the darkness.
Yu Hanjiang's heart tightened slightly and he continued to call: "Brother? Are you there?"
A breeze blew from the sea. The originally calm sea surface was sparkling, and everything around was quiet. Such a closed space was even suffocating. Yu Hanjiang immediately terminated the card skills and left the absolute realm.
The teammates saw Yu Hanjiang suddenly disappearing and then reappearing in the same place, their expressions a little ugly.
Xiao Lou noticed something was wrong at a glance, walked over and asked with concern: "What's wrong?"
Yu Hanjiang frowned and said, "Brother Ninth is not here."
Xiao Lou was shocked - Lu Jiuchuan's "Absolute Domain" card was very special. As long as Lu Jiuchuan handed the card to the other party, the other party could enter the independent space he created at any time, and he would immediately know his territory.
Someone entered and came here to meet him. But now, he knew that Yu Hanjiang was coming, why didn't he show up to meet him?
Yu Hanjiang whispered: "Unless he is in danger, he will not be able to get away."
Xiao Lou couldn't help but become nervous: "What should we do?"
Yu Hanjiang said: "Go find Tang Bureau."
His brother was in danger. Even though it was already late at night, Yu Hanjiang couldn't sit still for a moment. Xiao Lou naturally wanted to follow him. Shao Qingge originally wanted to go, but Xiao Lou turned around and said: "Mr. Shao, you and everyone rest first, I
Let's go out with Captain Yu. This is the main city world now. Keep your mobile phone on at all times. If you need anything, call me."
Shao Qingge nodded: "Okay."
In the main city world, he couldn't use his insect ace, and it would be troublesome to follow him. Moreover, if something happened to Ninth Brother, only Tang Ci would know about the situation. After all, Tang Ci was the director of the Intelligence Bureau, and his sources of information were wider.
Thinking of this, Shao Qingge handed the keys of the car to Yu Hanjiang and said: "You two, be careful."
Yu Hanjiang took the key, drove the car shared by the team, took Xiao Lou and rushed to Tang Ci's underground base.
The Moon City at night is quiet and peaceful, with not many pedestrians on the streets. The entire city is located among mountains and forests, and seems to be filled with the fragrance of flowers and vegetation everywhere.
The vines on the roadside quickly slipped out of the car window. Yu Hanjiang's face was extremely serious. Seeing him like this, Xiao Lou couldn't help but gently squeezed his hand that was holding the steering wheel and said softly: "Don't worry too much, Ninth Brother
He's disguised so well that he shouldn't be spotted by hunters. Besides, Director Tang, Mr. Gui and Sister Huaying will also help him. Maybe it's just that it's not convenient for him to meet you for the time being."
The cool touch on the back of his hand made Yu Hanjiang feel calmer. He nodded and said, "Send Bureau Tang a message and ask."
Tang Ci is engaged in intelligence work, majoring in computer and software engineering. His counter-reconnaissance methods are more powerful than the high-level criminals Yu Hanjiang has seen. Every time Tang Ci sends them messages, he uses a virtual number.
Law tracking.
But Tang Ci had left a number for Xiao Lou and asked them to find it in case of emergency.
Xiao Lou sent a message: "Mr. Tang, what's going on with Brother Ninth? We went to the Absolute Realm and didn't see him."
The message quickly received a reply: "He tracked down some important clues about the Hunters and went to the City of Sun. Now he is inseparable. Why are you so anxious to find him?"
Xiao Lou replied: "We just came out of the tenth level, and we originally planned to bring our teammates over to get to know Brother Ninth."
Tang Ci thought for a while and said: "Take them with you and join me in Sun City as soon as possible. Mr. Gui, Chu Huaying and I are all in Sun City now. Brother Ninth only told me that within three days, the people here will
The hunters will make a big move, and the details are still being investigated."
Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang looked at each other.
Yu Hanjiang immediately turned the steering wheel and turned back to the villa. He woke up his teammates and said, "Pack your things immediately and go to Sun City!"
The teammates looked confused. Shao Qingge asked doubtfully: "Is it too late to buy tickets now?" He turned on his mobile phone to check and said: "The tickets for the latest train are all sold out."
Xiao Loudao: "When I passed the fourth level, I remember that each person was given a [universal ticket card]. There are no restrictions on transportation, including airplanes and trains. Just use this."
Everyone opened the card pack and saw that it indeed contained this card, which could be used in place of a ticket in an emergency.
Lao Mo asked: "Are you leaving now?"
Yu Hanjiang nodded: "The situation is urgent, let's set off immediately."
