Chapter 24 Desperate

Ghost: Who set off these fireworks?

Cursed Spirit: Are you following your previous approach and deliberately attracting evil spirits?

Ghost: Isn’t this battle too big?

Fierce Nightmare: This is too reckless! You will die if you are not careful!

Ghost: No one admits to setting off fireworks? It doesn’t matter if you admit it, right?

Skeleton Demon: The person setting off the fireworks may have some special agenda.

Blood Shadow: I said, Ghost, did you do it? Did you bring fireworks in?

Ghost: I’m totally confused now!

Cursed Spirit: Maybe there is a plan? However, even if there is a plan, the evil spirit will probably go there and take a look. Anyway, it is impossible to set any trap there to deal with the evil spirit.

Ghost: But is there really a plan so that after the evil spirit has passed, its identity will be revealed?

Cursed Spirit: Ghost, are you stupid? If this is not better? You said so, what if the evil spirit sees it and doesn't go?

(The ghost immediately retracted what he just sent, and the curse spirit also withdrew its reply)

Blood Shadow: Well, I bet the evil spirit will definitely look in the direction of the fireworks! If you don’t even have the courage to do so, then it’s just a turtle! No, saying it’s a turtle is an insult!

Ghost: I see, that’s not necessarily the case. Maybe the evil spirit really doesn’t have the guts! Maybe they really arranged some black dog blood, peach wood sword, black donkey hooves, etc. there!



Dai Xiyan was watching the fireworks gradually dissipating in the sky.

"You're still singing in harmony, using such a clumsy way to provoke the enemy." Dai Xiyan had to say, such stupid words might actually stop the evil spirit from leaving.

Of course, everyone knows that this is not the world of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp", and it is definitely impossible to use black donkey hooves to deal with evil spirits. This is just a temporary measure to distract evil spirits to fight for survival time.

Of course, evil spirits will probably go there as well. After all, evil spirits will know the locations of all residents from 5 a.m. anyway, so it doesn't matter whether it's a waste of time.

But after all, expedient measures are only expedient measures, and the time that can be bought is limited. If the person setting off the fireworks really squats there, he is really looking for death.

At this time, she ran to a place that looked like a staff dormitory in the north of a park and hid behind it.

There are many recreational facilities near the dormitory, such as rocking horses, swings, slides, etc.

She continued to pick up her phone and started typing.

The discussion in the group is still very intense.

Curse Spirit: Now, let’s not discuss the fireworks.

Nightmare: Okay.

Ghost: Anyway, let’s try to hide it first, so we don’t get found.

Skeleton Demon: Wait, I suddenly have an idea! Why don't you all send a photo to the group? It must clearly show your location, and you must make a gesture designated by me in front of the camera!

Ghost: Is everyone crazy? Why do you do this?

Skeleton Demon: The evil spirit must have arrived at the place where the fireworks are set off, which is located on the southwest side of the park.

Blood Shadow: Do you mean that if the photo taken is located in the southwest of the park, it means it is an evil spirit?

Skeleton Demon: Yes! The gesture is to ensure that the photo was taken just now!

Ghost: But is this risky? The evil spirits will know our location!

Nightmare: The biggest problem is that we can’t determine the pace of the evil spirit. Is it really at the southwest position now? What if it can forge photos through its thoughts? What about using the P gesture on PS?

Skeleton Demon: I will announce what the gesture is later. Take a photo within ten seconds after the announcement and post it in the WeChat group! Hurry! Otherwise the evil spirit may escape from the fireworks immediately! At worst, leave the place quickly after taking the photo!

Ghost: I won’t do it! It’s too dangerous! What if the evil spirit refuses to take pictures?

Nightmare: Unless everyone can be persuaded to take photos, the evil spirit will not be exposed without taking photos.

Skeleton Demon: While you are talking nonsense, the evil spirits can already escape!

Cursed Spirit: Sorry, I won’t do it, the risk is too great. Even if you only give the evil spirit ten seconds, I think it is enough to photoshop photos with your thoughts.

Skeleton Demon: If you want to find a way out, you must take risks!

Blood Shadow: To put it bluntly, everyone now knows that the evil spirit is in the southwest, so we can avoid it without taking the risk of exposing our location. Let’s forget it.



Xia Li had expected this result.

Not everyone is willing to take risks. Even if you post a photo on Moments, the rule that it must be taken within two minutes can only restrain evil spirits. Photos of evil spirits can even be taken several days ago, which is completely meaningless.

.As for the possibility of changing photos through thoughts, it cannot be ruled out.

If the enemy is not an evil spirit, but a human being, it may be a good countermeasure. But there is no way, their enemy is too powerful.

He took another look at the location where the fireworks dissipated. There were many places to hide and cover where the fireworks were set off, and the evil spirits could find them for a while.

But the time that can be gained is still limited.

At the same time, he paid attention to his cell phone.

The battery has dropped to 40%.

A cruel problem must be faced...the battery may not last until the end of the Scarlet Letter mission. The Scarlet Letter clearly stipulates that charging mobile phones is strictly prohibited.

If the phone cannot be charged, the phone may only be used until about three in the morning. Once the phone shuts down due to exhaustion of power, residents will have no way to deal with the evil spirits.

Judging from everyone's rejection of the proposal just now... we currently have enough power. However, as the power is consumed, everyone will eventually have to make a choice.



Tens of minutes later...

Another timed fireworks arranged by Xia Li were set off into the sky.

Xia Li looked at the fireworks blooming in the sky and smiled bitterly. Now, his actions seemed like a death struggle.

"Perhaps absolute rationality actually brings more pain to people."

He sat there, admiring the fireworks in the sky.

Although he inherited some of his father's rigidity and rigor, he also had a trace of his mother's romantic feelings. Perhaps for this reason, he wanted to become a game programmer since he was a child.

It was his biggest dream to create a game that truly intoxicates countless people.

But now he is beginning to feel confused. Is this really his dream? Or is this just a random character setting for him by the cartoonist?

The scene he saw that day will never be forgotten.

It was on a rainy day.

Qiao Chuyi, the author of the comic "Kingdom of Evil" who almost never appears in the media, held a small book signing in her hometown to give back to her hometown.

Xia Li also went there at that time.

At that time, for him, that trip was simply more dangerous than breaking into Baator's stronghold.

He queued for two hours and finally came to Qiao Chuyi.

In front of the Creator who created himself.

She is a girl in her twenties who is not very good-looking, has heavy dark circles under her eyes, wears glasses as thick as the bottom of a beer bottle, and is somewhat hunched over.

But the moment Xia Li handed the comic to her and she signed it...

Xia Li saw an extremely terrifying scene.



Skeleton Demon: Everyone, please send photos! Your battery should be running low, right? If you don’t find the evil spirit, it will be over!

Ghost: Come again?

Skeleton Demon: Let’s post it in the circle of friends this time!

Fierce Nightmare: Is this useful? Skeleton Demon? Evil spirits don’t have to take photos and post them on Moments within two minutes.

Skeleton Demon: As long as I specify a specific pose! I'll be the first to do it! Okay?

Curse Spirit: Why don't you give it a try? My mobile phone's battery is already less than 20%.

Blood Shadow: But you still have to use a flash to take it!

Skeleton Demon: Now, everyone, tilt your phone at about 45 degrees and take a photo! This ensures that even the evil spirit has just taken the photo!



The battery of Zhu Yuyan's mobile phone held by Dai Xiyan was only 15%.

When it cannot be charged, the phone may only be used for less than an hour. It may even shut down automatically at any time when the battery is less than 5%.

Once the phone is turned off, that's it.

She picked up her phone and tilted it, aiming it at the swing and slide next to it, and took a photo.

In the circle of friends, everyone finally sent photos one after another.

This is our biggest adventure yet.

After all, the consumption of mobile phone battery made them choose to make a desperate move.

However……

Everyone’s circle of friends is not where the fireworks are!

Yes, everyone!

And in this way, the locations of the residents were collectively exposed!
