Start a core cabin

The crew quickly sent the staff member to the hospital. After the doctor's examination, it was found that he was just knocked unconscious and just needed to rest. He himself did not remember what happened. According to the staff, he was just checking the equipment, and then he seemed to hear some sound, and then he lost consciousness.

The doctor's explanation for this was that he might have been hit on the head by something, and the crew also recognized this. Even if filming was allowed here, it was a place that had been in disrepair for a long time. Even if most of the structures were intact, it was not ruled out that something would fall, right?

After that, the group returned to the hotel to rest, and Duanmu Huai called Kurokawa Akane to his room.

"Did anything strange happen on the set today?"

Hearing Duanmu Huai's question, Kurokawa Akane tilted his head in confusion.

"Wow... It seems that nothing strange happened. What happened?"

"Today, when I was filming at the institute, I encountered a strange thing."

"Strange thing? Ah, I heard that a staff member had an accident?"

"It was indeed quite unexpected, but it was not an ordinary accident."

Duanmu Huai waved his hand.

"Something attacked him."

"Huh?"

"It looks weird, like some kind of ghost... a bunch of wriggling meat, but only I can see it, no one else can. It seems that the thing wants to eat the staff member when he is alone, at least that's what happened when I found him."

"Could it be an evil ghost?"

Hearing Duanmu Huai's words, Kurokawa Akane's face changed slightly. She still remembered the situation when she and Duanmu Huai accidentally entered the past era.

"Not quite the same..."

Duanmu Huai frowned slightly. Although evil ghosts are ghosts, strictly speaking, they are actually similar to vampires or ghouls, and belong to physical creatures. But the thing I saw before was not like that. It was obviously something like a ghost.

I haven't seen this thing before. Is this the update that the GM said?

What exactly was updated?

But at least it's much better than the destruction of the wasteland apocalypse world.

"In short, be careful."

As he spoke, Duanmu Huai reached out and took out two mobile phone pendants from his pocket.

"What is this?"

"It's a talisman. You and Kana each have one. If you are attacked by that thing, this thing can protect you."

"Thank you...but..."

Kurokawa Akane took the mobile phone pendant handed by Duanmu Huai with a complicated expression. Well, it's no wonder that her expression is strange, because these two mobile phone pendants are two skulls.

And there are also hammer and gear marks.

This thing may be cool for high school boys, but for girls... and it has to be hung on the phone, which is very...

"Is there no other shape?"

"No."

Duanmu Huai shook his head silently. This is the symbol of the Tribunal. What can he do? Can he change it to Peppa Pig for you?

"Then...I'll think of a way. Can I sew them into the doll?"

"It should be possible."

Duanmu Huai nodded.

"By the way, I'm going out for a while, please cover for me."

"Hey?"

"I'm going to the shooting site to see if those guys are there."

Duanmu Huai picked up the guitar case beside him.

"Is it okay?"

"Don't worry, they are just some trash. It won't work if they interfere with the shooting."

Speaking of this, Duanmu Huai's tone was slightly depressed.

"Once an accident happens, the shooting will stop, but the daily salary for the staff is indispensable. Where do they think the money comes from? These damn bastards! I also invested money, can such waste be allowed?"

"Uh............"

Hearing Duanmu Huai's complaint, Kurokawa Akane was speechless, but she had to admit that what Duanmu Huai said made sense. This is how the crew is. Once it is set up and running, it will burn money every day.

"Then... ...Have a good trip?"

"Oh, if anyone asks, just say I went to bed."

Duanmu Huai waved his hand, turned around and walked out of the balcony with the guitar case, then jumped down and disappeared into the night.

Although this is the 20th floor... But since it's Xiao Ai, it shouldn't matter.

Kurokawa Akane walked to the balcony and looked around, but couldn't see anything.

"At least say I'm going out..."

Looking at the dark night, Kurokawa Akane sighed silently.

The shooting site at night seemed like a ghost town.

This is natural, after all, this place was originally a ruin, and the staff had gone back to rest. Only some large equipment that couldn't be taken away was still placed here, which looked particularly weird. Of course, if it wasn't like this, then this place would not have been chosen as a filming location by Director Shimizu.

There was indeed no abnormal feeling at the gathering place of the survivors.

But the research institute was different.

Duanmu Huai could feel that with the arrival of night, a strange atmosphere emerged again somewhere inside the research institute.

And it seemed... fighting?

When Duanmu Huai came to the basement, he soon heard the sound coming from it, including collisions and shouting.

"Why is this happening? I heard it was a second-level cursed spirit, but it's actually a quasi-first-level one!"

The one who shouted was a girl who looked about 16 or 17 years old. She had long blue hair, a characteristic face, and strange side bangs, holding a Japanese sword. Opposite this girl stood a mutant spider monster with a body as huge as a bus. At this moment, this spider monster was waving its claws to attack the blue-haired girl, and the blue-haired girl looked a little embarrassed. It was obvious that her current situation was quite bad.

That was…………

Duanmu Huai narrowed his eyes and looked carefully at the huge spider fighting with the girl. This thing looked very much like a strange creature he had seen in the other world. In other words, this thing would not only appear in the other world, but also in reality? Sure enough, as he imagined, the subspace began to erode the real world?

"Hey!"

The girl swung her knife again to block a spider leg that was stabbing at her, but she herself retreated due to the reaction force, and then directly hit the spider web behind her.

A perfect version in the 16-9 book forum!

"Oops!"

The girl also realized that the situation was not good and tried to break free, but her body was firmly stuck in the spider web and there was no way to get rid of it. At the same time, the huge spider monster also rushed in front of the girl, opened its bloody mouth... and then was directly split in half from the middle.

"Huh?"

The girl widened her eyes in surprise, looking at the spider that was split in half and gradually disappeared in front of her, and didn't know what happened for a while.

Then, she saw a figure coming from behind the spider.

"Hello, young lady."

Duanmu Huai stared at the pale girl in front of him and showed a hideous smile.

"It was really close just now. As a life-saving grace, don't mind me asking you something."

"Hey---you, what do you want to ask?"

"First tell me, who are you and what are you doing here?"

Duanmu Huai held the knife in his hand, pressed it against the neck of the girl who was standing still, and then slowly slid down.

"And what was the thing you were fighting?"

"I, I say........."

Faced with Duanmu Huai's question, the girl looked pale, but she still tried her best to stay calm and nodded vigorously. Then, she quickly explained to Duanmu Huai.

According to the girl, her name is Sanlunxia, ​​and she is a sorcerer who specializes in removing cursed spirits - that is, the mutated big spider that Duanmu Huai saw before. According to Sanlunxia, ​​cursed spirits are supernatural beings generated by the power of negative emotions from humans, but where these curses and cursed spirits come from, no one knows.

But cursed spirits will attack humans and kill them, and sorcerers are professionals who protect humans and eliminate cursed spirits.

Supernatural beings born from human negative emotions...

Hearing this, Duanmu Huai's face sank slightly.

"For example?"

"Mostly fear, jealousy, anger, in short, all kinds of emotions. Some cursed spirits come from human fear of certain things, and some cursed spirits were originally human souls, but because they were bound by the thoughts of the living, they turned into dangerous cursed spirits..."

"Oh, I have heard of this."

Duanmu Huai remembered that there was indeed a legend that said that the vengeful spirits were forced to stay because the thoughts of the living could not ascend to heaven.

But... Cursed spirits... Monsters born from human negative emotions... The other world... Strange stories caused by the condensation of human emotions... The alien life that Professor Ueno once met, which communicated with humans through fear...

Very good, now everything is connected. If Duanmu Huai guessed correctly, the other world they went to before should be the place where those monsters were bred. Well, but this is really annoying, subspace monsters born from human negative emotions--ah, Duanmu Huai's Judge PTSD is about to break out again.

After all, this setting sounds like a pure subspace creature. Forget it, whether it is a cursed spirit or a subspace creature, it is still the same thing in the end, just kill it when you see it.

"Thank you for your cooperation."

Duanmu Huai put the sword back into the sheath and nodded to the girl.

"If there is nothing else, then I will take my leave."

"Ah, please, please wait a moment!"

Seeing Duanmu Huai turning around to leave, the girl hurriedly called him.

"Then, that..."

"Hmm?"

"Excuse me, are you Miss Duanmu Ai?"

"Yes, it's me..."

Duanmu Huai stared at the blue-haired girl, who lowered her head, hesitated for a moment, then took out a notebook from her arms and handed it to Duanmu Huai with both hands.

"I am your fan, can you give me an autograph? If possible, and take a photo together......!"

"............ Of course no problem."
