From Prisoner to Si Chen

The misty sky turned dark without knowing when, and a pale yellow hung on the horizon. The entire dead old city was shrouded in an atmosphere of unspeakable sadness.

White mist mixed with smoke billows in the streets.

Abandoned carriages, bloodstains, filth and fallen trash cans abound.

Gilan was walking alone on the street. The doors and glass of many shops on both sides were broken, and even large holes were exposed in the walls. Bricks and gravel were scattered on the ground.

This scene couldn't help but remind him of the scene when Brak City encountered war... and this city was also experiencing war.

And is suffering from some terrible mysterious violation.

Along the way, he could tell from the newspapers flying on the ground and the posters posted on the walls that the Munich Empire was at war with the Toulouse Federation, and for some unknown reason, the city of Peel had become a key city that the two sides were competing for.

Crack!

Just as Gillan passed the door of a hotel, a police officer wearing a blue uniform and an iron helmet with a dome and a short brim rushed out and waved a metal baton at him.

Bang!

Ji Lan retreated and stepped out of the way.

The baton was swung empty.

The police officer had suddenly changed, his facial features were frozen in horror, and his head was twitching and shaking, which was very strange.

"It's this monster again."

Jilan looked coldly and threw out the ax.

The demon-hunting ax passed through the cold light, and with just one blow, the policeman's head was cut off.

His head fell to the ground, but it was still twitching!

Upon seeing this, Ji Lan immediately reached out and touched the other person's body. The colorful light flashed away, and the points jumped from "215" to "218".

Mutant police officer, 3 points of mysterious energy.

On the road, he met several residents or police officers who had undergone strange changes, and they all looked like this. His expression was horrifying, and his head was twitching and shaking.

And very difficult to kill...

Even if the head is cut off, they can quickly grow a new one. This immortality is even greater than that of Orlando, the mad exorcist.

But when he met Jilan, he was firmly restrained.

Because as long as they reach out and become corrupted, they will have no time to be "resurrected" and have no choice but to turn into points.

At this time.

Gilan glanced up at the sky and realized that night was coming. And the dim sunset was already glowing with red light.

"Master, Weiwei feels in danger."

At this time, the little familiar said nervously.

"It seems like something is coming from the sky. If you don't hide, something bad will happen..."

"Yeah." Jilan frowned and looked away.

He looked around and simply took Weiwei into a hotel on one side.

It was very dark inside, and Gillan found a few candles in the utility room behind the front desk.

Then, go straight upstairs.

There was no one in the hotel, it was empty.

He found a random room, went in, locked the door behind his back, and moved a counter to block the door.

After a while.

The sky was getting dark, and a blood moon was rising slowly.

The street outside the window seemed to be soaked in blood, turning into a scarlet world.

Wow!

Ji Lan's face changed slightly and he immediately closed the curtains.

The blood-colored moonlight gave him an extremely dangerous feeling, as if as long as he was illuminated, he would be polluted by strong miasma and have some unknown influence.

Even if he is a level 1 spiritual mystic and is protected by the kingdom's brand, he will not be able to hold on for long.

"You can't go out at night in Old Pier. Once you are burned by the blood moon, the consequences will be disastrous."

Gilan murmured, lit the candle, and simply sat in the dark hotel room all night.

When the sun rose the next day and the blood moon set, he left the hotel and continued his action.

However, Gillan had no idea where the other contestants were. After several fruitless searches, he simply gave up and focused on hunting monsters.

Anyway, the movie can be watched over and over again, and he plans to start with the other two groups of contestants the next time he watches the movie.

Next, he wandered around during the day, hunting down mutated residents or police officers, and hid in buildings at night to avoid the blood moon.

Another day and a half passed.

It was the evening of the third day.

Gillan arrived in the heart of the old city.

After this period of hunting, the color number in the corner of his sight has reached "261", which can be said to be a fruitful harvest.

Next, he wanted to see the end of the movie.

Directly in front is a 100-meter tall spiral tower, made entirely of gray and white stone, with a strong classical charm.

Its existence is incompatible with the surrounding urban buildings and quite abrupt. It was as if it was forcibly moved here from other places by some force.

Steps lead to five-meter-tall double doors. There are exquisite patterns and reliefs carved on the stone door. It shows countless stars surrounding a full moon, and countless little people dancing around.

"God's Choice Tower..."

Gillan murmured the name of this spiral tower.

He waited for a moment in the square, and as the sun set, a figure in a white dress walked from the street.

The girl with twin ponytails is holding the boning knife carefully.

As she approached, the gate of the tower slowly opened, making a loud rumble.

"Huh?" Ji Lan was a little surprised. "She is the only contestant left?"

Recalling the scene in Apocalypse's dream, there should be a fight in front of the tower at the end.

Although the liar Iman and the traveler are both dead, what about the actress?

‘It seems that my intervention caused the plot to change. ’

Jilan watched Maiev walking into the God's Choice Tower with a look of surprise and uncertainty, and thought to himself.

Not long after.

Wait until the door of God's Choice Tower slowly closes again.

Woo——

Woo——

Woo——

The air raid sirens suddenly sounded throughout the sky.

Noise and vertical spots began to appear in the surrounding field of view.

Gillan let out a long sigh and automatically left the movie.

After he recovered from watching the movie, he looked at the picture on the curtain, which was fixed on the spiral tower under the blood-like dusk.

On one side, white subtitles such as a list of actors and acknowledgments of behind-the-scenes staff began to scroll.

Finally, as the picture fell into darkness, the words of thanks left by the "director" slowly emerged:

"You won this game. My friend, William Gerrard..."

Gillan frowned as he looked at the words of thanks.

For the next week, he lived in seclusion, either watching movies in the master bedroom, or taking notes, studying the details and character plot lines in "Old Peel 2".

During the second viewing of the movie, Gillan tried not to get involved in the plot and stood aside the whole time.

This time, the five-person team did not conflict with the old beggar. Instead, the other party kindly reminded them not to wander outside at night to avoid being exposed to the moonlight.

Therefore, the veteran Kulin did not die under the mysterious power of the old beggar. Instead, he and the reporter Olin were shot to death with a crossbow by the traveler Eamon River in the air raid bunker.

After Kulinyi turned into a bandage gun monster, he chased the boxer Junior to death.

The liar Iman and the red-haired female student Lilia escaped separately, and the traveler also survived.

Watching the movie for the third time.

Gillan chose to join the first team. That is, the team of the old man in black, the actress in red and the fat businessman in red suit.

As the plot develops, they will arrive at an abandoned clothing store. Actress Jen Sean was attracted by those beautiful dresses, but she was attacked by four model dummy monsters.

The fat businessman Satuk Kabo was the first to escape.

In order to survive, the old man in black clothes, Luchi Feo, pushed the actress towards the monster, turned around and ran away. The traveler then shows up and rescues the actress from the mannequin monster.

Only then did Gillan know that when he first watched the movie, he killed the traveler, so the actress was not saved and died here.

What follows is as predicted in Gillan's "Apocalypse Dream".

The fat businessman felt tired and hungry after running for his life. He stopped in a restaurant and looked for food. However, he was chopped to death by the monster pig-headed chef in the restaurant with a kitchen knife and stewed into broth.

After the pig-headed chef ate the broth, an even more terrifying change occurred. He directly grew to a height of 2.56 meters, holding a ferocious bone chopping knife that was one meter long and half a meter wide.

Ji Lan tried to fight with him, but found that he couldn't beat him at all, so he had to retreat.

The old man in black clothes fled to the sewer and was eaten by the newt monster in the sewage. This monster also undergoes a second mutation, seemingly because the contestant's corpse possesses some kind of energy.

The mutated salamander monster is as scary as the pig-headed chef, and Gilan also dares not to provoke it.

"Sewer Salamander, pig-headed chef, whose strength exceeds the 'exceeding limit' level, is tentatively classified as 'unknown'."

In Gillan's "Research Notes on Film Viewing of "Old Peel # 2"", he wrote this sentence with a fat belly pen in a notebook full of handwriting.

There are brackets at the end to add: "Maybe equivalent to a third-level spiritual mystic. Just speculation."

Fourth time watching the movie.

Guillen joined the second team.

That is, the familiar duo, the team of folklorist Maiev and doctor Brennan. These two people were his "old acquaintances" when he first watched the movie "Yuezhuo Village # 1".

Gillan follows the two as they travel through the old city of Peel and explore an abandoned orphanage.

Doctor Brennan accidentally touched a Ouija board placed on a desk in a classroom, which triggered some mysterious power and disappeared instantly.

When Gilan and Maiev found him, they found that he had been hanged on the flag-raising platform in the open space behind the orphanage.

The doctor then mutated and turned into a headless white-robed monster, armed with a needle whip and a bone saw, and attacked.

Also consistent with the revelation of the "Apocalypse Dream", Sanna Arzu, a goth girl with smoky makeup, jumped out and blocked the fatal blow for Maiev, thus dying on the spot.

It was also through this plot that Gillan learned that this Goth girl was Maiev's classmate at the southern college. Because she had a crush on Maiev to the point of madness, she followed her all the way and even boarded the mountain together. Got on the train.

Gillan had never intervened in the plot before. Only then did he propose that Maiev should leave first and he should stay behind.

Soon after he and the doctor mutated into a headless white-robed monster, the Goth girl began to mutate and turned into a skinless monster lying on the ground like a spider.

Seeing this, Jilan directly activated the secret skill "Bathing in Blood", and then used the Justice Cane to use the "Pisces" sword on himself, hitting his legs to stimulate his potential.

Then, he ran away in a flash.

Two monsters were left fighting in the open space on the side of the orphanage.

After waiting for more than ten or twenty minutes, Gilan returned and dealt with the seriously injured headless white-robed monster.

This way you can easily get points from these two monsters.

Coupled with the four mannequin monsters he killed during his third viewing of the movie, the color number in the corner of Gillan's sight reached an astonishing "341" point!

Afterwards, Gillan returned to the classroom in the orphanage and found the Ouija board that led to the mysterious death of Dr. Brennan.

As soon as I picked it up, beautiful entries appeared:

"Lotherthugh Ouija Board. Originated from an ancient medium named Lorthew Horne, the Ouija Board is made up of the skulls, sternums and finger bones of twelve magicians who channeled the gods. It has mysterious powers. The power of divination.”

"Divination is affected by specific things, and the success or failure is unknown. If the divination fails, it will lead to terrible disaster."

"Sprinkling occult dust on the Ouija board before divination will exempt you from the cost of a failed divination."

After Gilan got this mysterious item, he was very happy and put it directly into the dimensional space.

With the reminder of colorful entries, he knew the correct way to use it, and naturally he would not be in trouble because of it.

As I continued to watch and study movies, time soon came to the last day of September.

The day of long shots.
