The author's diary of ghost stories

[You have triggered the root mission: Source Ghost]

[Note: He was sleeping and someone was making a noise. You can kill the noisy person, or you can kill Him who is sleeping, but... you must never let Him wake up. 】

Yu Liang looked at the prompt box that suddenly popped up and was stunned.

He looked at the floor tiles under his feet and the architect walking beside him, and was very surprised.

What's the meaning?

I just saved the architect and shared the information that both parties had. How could he trigger the source of the ghost story?

Yu Liang frowned and observed the surrounding situation more carefully. He and the architect had walked to the street outside the machine shop. It was already dark at the moment, but the streets were brightly lit, as bright as day.

In Area C, there is no difference between night and day.

The discarded metal materials were piled haphazardly on both sides of the street. They were rusty and looked a bit old.

He had already walked this road when he came here. If it was this road that led him to receive the mission of the root ghost talk, then it should have been triggered long ago.

"Do you have the main mission to trigger the source of ghost stories?" Yu Liang raised his head and asked the architect in front of him.

The current architect is wearing the bee and lamb costume, while Yu Liang is wearing the melancholy frog costume.

"No, have you triggered it?" Yang Mi turned her head and looked at Yu Liang.

"I'm just asking." Yu Liang did not answer directly because he didn't understand what was going on.

Since the architect did not trigger it, it means that the emergence of this root ghost story has nothing to do with the architect, and it has nothing to do with the current Machinery Street.

so……

He thought to himself and had something on his mind.

The reasons for this situation may be as follows:

1. The source of the ghost story itself is targeting him.

2. Some kind of hallucination created by ghosts enveloped him.

3. A created character triggers the root ghost story, and this mission is inherited to him.

He had encountered a situation similar to the first conjecture in the zoo. At that time, "Zhi" paid great attention to him, provided him with some conveniences, and also caused a lot of trouble.

No, no, "Zhi" was actually paying attention to Lao Du at first. After all, it was Lao Du who had been trying his best to find the character "xiao". Later, he was intercepted by Yu Liang, and "Zhi" turned to pay attention to Yu Liang. .

However, Yu Liang didn't feel that faint sense of gaze now. If the source ghost talk was staring at him, there should be something strange.

Except for accepting the mission, there were no kaidan scenes around him, which was not in line with the strong character of the root kaidan.

The second possibility is hallucination. This situation cannot be ruled out for the time being, and more time is needed to judge and screen.

And the third possibility...

If it was the creative characters who did it, it wouldn't be surprising at all.

Whether it is the reckless Li Huachao or the unlucky Lu Baoshen, they are likely to provoke the source of ghost talk. As for An Buchen, he probably doesn't know where he is hiding in his nest.

But if you think about it carefully, the most unlikely candidate is quite possible. After all, An Buchen is also a fierce general in the writer's universe. No one knows what she will do just to survive.

Yu Liang thought about it carefully, and for the time being he stopped thinking about which created character was responsible for the incident, and instead focused on the task itself.

Source ghost.

Very simple name.

Probably to find the root ghost.

And the remark is equally easy to understand, the source of ghost stories is still dormant, but some people are making noise.

There are two ways to solve the problem of the source monster. One is to kill the noisy person and let the source monster continue to sleep peacefully. The other is to kill the person while he is sleeping.

Yu Liang touched his chin and suddenly had an interesting association in his mind.

Azathoth.

The blind and foolish god in the Cthulhu mythology. The entire universe is a dream for him. When he wakes up from his dream, everything will be annihilated.

The Great Alarm Clock Gherroth possesses the noisy ability to "wake up" Azathoth, so he was driven away by all the gods.

That time and that moment, exactly this moment.

In order to prevent the destruction of the universe, those gods want to prevent Azathoth from awakening, and they also have two methods.

Drive away the big alarm clock and kill Azathoth.

The former can be done, the latter cannot.

Azathoth cannot be killed, and the current source of ghost talk cannot be killed either, so the choice left to Yu Liang is obvious.

Find these noisy and restless things, expel them from Cyber ​​City, and ensure that the source ghost story sleeps peacefully. This is the solution to the root ghost story.

This is probably the idea of ​​​​the root ghost talk, a very clear idea.

"Going to Area F?" When the two came to the intersection, the architect turned to ask Yu Liang.

"Yes, save some time and go now." Yu Liang just nodded and looked at the picture in his eyes.

He added the adventurer as a friend. It has been so long, but the adventurer still has not escaped from the "back room" and cannot even send a message.

No news came out at all.

It seems that the origin of this ghost man is not easy to deal with. Yu Liang just hopes that he will not be pulled into the back room inexplicably. Repeated ghost stories will also be triggered by the player, but it will not allow the player to gain tasks, but it will be in vain. It only causes players to lose viewing time.

Yu Liang looked at his page and saw that there were still 180 hours of movie viewing time left. He needed to save some time because this was a remaining time worth being nervous about.

"That may have to wait a little longer. It's only around four in the morning. The passage to Area F is blocked and won't be reopened until about seven in the morning." The architect continued, and after speaking, he brought He looked at Yu Liang a little strangely, "Why, don't you know? Didn't you say before that your rebirth point is in Area F..."

"I don't know." Yu Liang just shook his head, "I crossed directly from the river on the boundary between the two CF districts in the early morning."

"Isn't the river..." The architect blinked dully. He was shocked by the news and took a moment to react. "Isn't the river absolutely closed to traffic? And it's an explicit rule written on the bridge. "

Generally speaking, the rules in the Kaitan World dungeon require players to judge whether to abide by them. In most cases, there will be no problem if they follow them without thinking. In a small number of cases, deceptive rules will appear.

No one will violate the rules written on the bridge, because the aboriginal people in this city also abide by them. This shows that there will be no danger if you abide by the rules. This has been a long-term consensus.

"Well, so you just saw that I have white hair." Yu Liang pointed to his frog head, "There was an eye in the river, and I was just glanced at by it, and then I was frightened and turned into white hair. "

"Scared?" The architect was still a little surprised. He originally thought it was Yu Liang who dyed his hair in pursuit of the cyberpunk trend, but this frightened his white hair...

It's really surprising.

So how scary is the giant eye in the river?

Just looking at someone can scare them to death?

Is this the level of powerful monsters in this instance?

How does this Cyber ​​City coexist peacefully with such a monster?

"How many hours are left before we can go to Area F." Yu Liang took up what the architect just said and asked, "Can we check the situation in Area C now?"

"In that case..." the architect began to think, and then looked up at the frog head in front of him, "Are you interested in going to the Arasaka branch? They have a branch in Area C. It's four o'clock in the morning, night The exhibition is almost over, and I should close my stall and go back to the company now."

"What a coincidence?" Yu Liang felt that the timing arrangement was somewhat of a coincidence.

"Cyber ​​people in Area C also need to sleep. Some people stay up until two or three o'clock and then go to bed. They have to work the day shift the next day, so the exhibition time is usually held in the evening until two or three o'clock in the morning. During this time, the flow of people is relatively large." The architect explained, "I escaped briefly when I was arrested into the company branch, but I couldn't escape the company for a while, so I found some information about it in the company. The documents of the "Ghost Man's" plan were available for sale, but in the end I couldn't escape and was captured by them again."

"Yes." Yu Liang nodded, "Let's go to the Golden Colosseum on the way. Maybe we can find a helper."

He originally planned to go to Area F to find a ghost origin, but he didn't plan to take Li Huachao with him. After all, Li Huachao could only choose one to complete the mission or do the mission seriously.

But it's different now. If you want to go to that Arasaka company, it's better to take Li Huachao with you. Li Huachao's unique ability as a hunter can still come in handy.

Both brain radar and invisible forced confinement traps are very useful.

"Colosseum? Looking for help?" The architect looked like he didn't understand, but after hearing that Yu Liang said he was a helper, he could naturally look forward to it.

Of course, it is impossible to understand it under normal circumstances. Who would have thought that there would be players who would go to the Colosseum to fight beasts in just a few days of viewing time.

Yu Liang stared at him with a frog-faced smile, and saw the expectation in the other person's eyes.

Well, look forward to it, the original Chief Lee may be your teammate.

But you may not know this guy, after all, you were standing at the trade show when he was in the news.

"There are self-service unmanned vehicles nearby. After deducting the fee, you can go directly to the location you need." The architect is more familiar with this cyber city than Yu Liang, and he also knows some of the infrastructure very well.

The two got on the unmanned vehicle and chose the Golden Colosseum as their destination. The unmanned vehicle drove in Area C of Cyber ​​City at a constant speed of 60 yards and arrived at Golden in twenty minutes. Near the Colosseum.

"Due to an emergency on Golden Street, train C32325 has stopped moving. Passengers are asked to pay a fee of 34.3 cyber coins."

The unmanned car parked on the side of the street, and Yu Liang and the architect were "driven" out of the car by the artificial intelligence.

"Something happened?" The architect looked at the huge building in the middle of the street in the distance. It was the Cyber ​​Colosseum, a fun place where people spend money like water every night, and a place where Cybermen unscrupulously pursue the violence and desires in their hearts. At this moment This place was surrounded by a cordon.

"Something happened." Yu Liang nodded and said in a simple tone.

Unexpected and reasonable.

Not only that, but it is also very likely to be related to Li Huachao.

"Go in and take a look, follow me." Yu Liang said solemnly, and the Shadow Servers appeared under his feet. Four Shadow Servers actively dragged his body, making him rush towards the Colosseum at a speed far exceeding that of ordinary people. go.

Zhong Chen drove his body and followed Yu Liang. The architect was neither a physical warrior nor a strange creature, so it was a bit difficult to follow. However, after typing the "speed" character on his body, the architect could barely do it. Keep up with these two.

There were many policemen who looked like law enforcers at the cordon, almost surrounding the Colosseum from all sides. The fastest way to enter the Colosseum was to rush in.

"Go." Yu Liang released the huge human snake and the slender snake-eating snake, letting them rush towards the team of law enforcers, causing chaos.

"What?!"

"The snake appears again!"

"Be careful, there's a black snake!"

The team of law enforcers suddenly became confused. However, the human snakes and snake-eating snakes did not actively attack the law enforcers, but only consciously drove and attracted them to a location.

"Brother Zhong Chen, hold on to me!" The architect shouted, letting Zhong Chen move with his body, and he entered the state of [Eye of God], the colors in his eyes solidified, as if from a higher level looking at the world from different dimensions.

After three seconds of preparation time, the architect entered the creative mode. He quickly typed more than ten "wall" characters, forming a huge cage to wrap up and imprison the law enforcers who had just been gathered.

Taking advantage of the huge opening left in the encirclement of the law enforcers, Yu Liang and the other three rushed into the Colosseum almost effortlessly.

The law enforcers further away noticed the situation here and quickly issued instructions on the intercom: "Warning! The snake man appears! The ghost man appears! They rushed into the Colosseum wearing doll costumes! Call for help from the superior mecha for support, internal Law enforcement officers temporarily retreat to preserve their own safety."

After repeating it twice, the law enforcement officer who reported the news also raised his gun, but he did not approach the Colosseum. Instead, he followed more law enforcement officers and retreated, extending the cordon to the entire street.

As for the law enforcement officers who were imprisoned in earth and stone "cages", some people also rescued them.

Yu Liang took back the human snake and the biting snake, and rushed into the Colosseum in one breath.

The Colosseum is roughly composed of a three-story arena, audience area, underground player preparation area and office area.

The venue was large and the lights were dark, so Yu Liang didn't know where his target was for a while.

"Snake Eater." Yu Liang summoned Snake Eater again, "Smell it and see if there is any strange smell, such as blood, corpses, or the smell of ghosts and ghosts."

Now that Li Huachao is away, the most dog-like thing in his universe is this snake-eating snake, so he can only rely on this snake-eating dog's nose.

Snake Eater didn't feel angry at being treated as a dog. It swallowed two mouthfuls of the dream energy created by Yu Liang and began to carefully sniff the special smell in the air.

"Huh?!" Snake-eater seemed to have smelled something that made it extremely excited. It opened its eyes wide and moved its head left and right to observe, and found that it couldn't see what it was looking for, but it could smell it and it was nearby!

I don't know what Snake Snake smelled, but it swam quickly towards the office area and headed straight for its destination.

Along the way, Yu Liang met many law enforcers. However, with the help of Yu Liang's strange creatures, these law enforcers were often knocked down after two seconds, or they followed the instructions and prioritized protecting themselves, so when they saw the three dolls At the same time, people hurriedly hid.

Not long after, Yu Liang followed Snake Eater's guidance and found the location of the "accident."

This is the central office of the Colosseum and the scene of the murder.

The strong smell of blood lingered in his nose, causing Yu Liang to frown.

The corpse fell on the desk, but what first attracted the attention of Yu Liang and the others was not the corpse, but the bloody words beside the corpse:

A (loving) person (loving) lonely (loving) in (loving) home~

Steal (love) steal (love) and look~
