Welcome to the Nightmare Live

Chapter 260

During this time, Zhang Yu and Qi Qian briefly exchanged their experiences with each other.

"So, the last customer was a problem, right?"

Qi Qian narrowed his eyes and asked.

"Yes," Zhang Yu nodded, "I saw it with my own eyes, after Tang Tang removed the blue-black charm on the customer's body, it began to disappear gradually, and it didn't reappear until I found a chance to put on the yellow charm. ."

Qi Qian nodded solemnly: "So it is."

Although he hasn't experienced it himself, he can basically guess some dungeon mechanisms with the help of his teammates' narration about the time that just happened.

I am afraid that the second person entering the store is not the "customer" they normally receive, but other stores. The function of the blue-black charm is to transfer its hatred and let it enter other stores. The role of the yellow charm should also be is the opposite of this.

Qi Qian: "What happened after you put the yellow sign on the customer?"

Zhang Yu shook his head with a wry smile: "After sticking the yellow talisman, the customer walked in the direction of the incense burner, but I lost the ability to move, so I didn't keep up, and I don't know what happened after that."

Wait, that turnover—

Qi Qian seemed to suddenly think of something, he raised his head suddenly and looked towards the position of the incense burner.

The incense in the incense burner has been extinguished, and only the last half of the cone is left. Through the faint light from the oil lamp, it can be seen that the red table on the side is empty, and there are no ghost coins left.

His expression was suddenly difficult to look at, and his eyes flickered.

During this attack, the strength of Zhang Yu and Orange Candy was compromised, Wen Wen and another Orange Candy's teammates also lost some of their vitality, and the incense burned half of it. Could it be that... …After paying such a high price, has the ownership of the turnover not been robbed of them in the end?

If this is the case, they will probably lose a lot.

At this moment, a weak but determined voice came from behind:

"Don't worry, we grabbed the turnover."

Qi Qian turned his head and looked in the direction where the voice came from.

I saw Wen Jianyan stood up with Su Cheng's hand and said, "If I guessed correctly, this time the coin should be in the dark room."

Everyone was startled.

Under Wen Jianyan's prompt, An Xin entered the dark room with a candle, and sure enough, on the wooden table with the spiritual seat and the portrait, a red coin was placed upright.

"Wen Wen is right!" An Xin returned to the counter, his excitement beyond words.

He handed the coin to Qi Qian, "The turnover is indeed there!"

After seeing this red coin, everyone could not help but let out a long sigh of relief, showing a relaxed expression.

Wen Jianyan's gaze stayed on the coin for a moment, and it left with a touch.

really.

The previous coin was placed on the table, because under the action of the sacrifice, the "customer" entered the tomb through the red wooden furniture, so their coin was left near the incense burner, and The last "customer" did not finish the offering, but set foot on the path led by the yellow talisman and walked in under the temptation of red candles. Therefore, its ghost coins would not stay near the incense burner, but near the spirit position.

This also shows that the series of purchase behaviors of "customers" are most likely the products of the [Prosperity Building] copy rules, rather than their active choices.

After confirming that the turnover did not disappear, the atmosphere relaxed a little.

However, the relaxed atmosphere of this moment did not last long.

"Although we did get this coin, the losses we suffered are still real," Qi Qian frowned, with a solemn expression on his face, "The most important thing is that our incense only The last half is left."

After listening to Qi Qian's words, everyone subconsciously looked in the direction of the incense burner.

In the incense burner, the bare half of the incense was particularly abrupt.

If it wasn't for this "customer" spoiler, the resources in their hands would be just enough to receive two customers, a stick of incense, and a yellow talisman. However, because the second customer was driven by the anchors in other stores Yes, they had to use the yellow talisman on the premise of consuming half a stick of incense.

And if they want to leave the fourth floor, they have to receive another customer.

At this moment, Tangerine Tang said, "A spell? I still have one here."

Everyone was startled, turned their heads to look in the direction of Tangerine Candy, and saw that the other party magically took out a blue-black spell from his pocket, and the scarlet and strange lines on it were particularly dazzling.

Yup!

The yellow talisman was obtained by Qi Qian's team from the second floor to the third floor, so it stands to reason that the Orange Candy Team should also have a talisman!

"As long as you stick it on the customer, it will enter the store of other anchors, and then we just need to wait, right?" Tangerine said.

This is indeed an excellent method. They can fully reap the benefits of the fisherman, but it is surprising that Wen Jianyan shook his head and raised an objection: "I don't recommend doing this."

"Why?" Orange Candy tilted her head, looked at Wen Jianyan, and asked with a smile, "No way? Are you the kind of person with a strong sense of morality?"

"Do not."

Wen Jianyan's face still had that calm and mild excessive expression, and it seemed that she was not at all irritated by Tangerine Candy's tone.

He shook his head and said, "It's not the fourth floor that has just started. The other teams should have dealt with 'customers' more or less, and maybe they have begun to gradually figure out how to use spells. Even if we send customers with blue-black talismans to other stores, there is a high possibility that they will be dismantled."

"Whether the 'customer' is resolved in another store or sent back to our store, we will continue to use the original resources to contact the 'customer' head-on on the premise of losing a very important charm. Therefore, using this spell now, no matter from which point of view, it is a loss."

Wen Jian said rationally.

Of course, this is an obvious excuse.

For Wen Jianyan, there was another reason why he couldn't announce it to the public for the time being, which made him even more unable to let go.

This also made Wen Jianyan act extremely cautiously and was unwilling to waste any resources that could be saved.

"So, I don't recommend pinning your hopes on the last coin on the mistakes of other teams -- especially if there are other ways," he added.

"Oh?" Qi Qian regained his energy and became interested, "Other methods?"

"Don't worry, in this dungeon, as long as you find out the path of the rules, you can find countless ways to solve the problem..." Wen Jianyan smiled, and in the dim light of the oil lamp, the pale face put on There is a hint of strangeness that does not match the temperament: "Even in the case of insufficient resources."

*

Inside the Prosperity Building, darkness enveloped the fourth floor.

The four shops are located at four locations in the south, east, and northwest, and two lanterns are hung on both sides of the door, like two eyeballs flashing in the dark.

Inside the transparent glass door, there was a dim yellow light.

Other than that, there is no light.

On the fourth floor, there seemed to be countless stiff and terrifying figures wandering in the boundless darkness, walking in different directions under the guidance of the lights.

"Ring bell bell!"

The door of the shop on the west side was pushed open from the outside.

A dark figure slowly walked in from the outside, and the cold and rancid air came in from the outside, and the temperature in the room dropped rapidly.

If nothing else, this should be the last customer.

Zhang Yu, Tangzi Tang, Su Cheng and several other streamers whose vitality had been eroded stayed behind the counter and waited in the safe area covered by oil lanterns.

Hearing the sound of the stiff footsteps approaching, Su Cheng couldn't help showing an anxious look on his face.

"Don't worry, Wen Wen's plan is very feasible, and I think it should be successful."

Zhang Yu on the side comforted in a low voice.

"I know," Su Cheng's face became even more worried: "But his state should not be involved in this operation..."

"There is no way, Wen Wen had already dripped blood into the incense burner when the last customer came," Zhang Yu sighed, "So, although she is not in a good state now, she has to participate in this operation. bingo."

"But don't worry, after all, there are captains around and they will be fine."

Zhang Yu took a deep breath and looked into the darkness.

"If it goes well, this should be the last customer we have on this floor."

While the two were talking in low voices, the footsteps of the customer were getting closer.

The sound of footsteps echoed in the dark and dead shop, no matter how many times I heard it, I couldn't help but feel nervous.

Zhang Yu and Su Cheng harvested and began to wait nervously for that moment to come.

The footsteps continued to approach.

It kept going over the red table and chairs and walked towards the counter, and then, without the slightest delay, passed the counter and walked straight towards the inner direction.

In the direction of the footsteps, there was a dark room with the door open.

Deep in the darkroom were Qi Qian, Wen Jianyan, Acropolis, and An Xin.

Qi Qian held a red candle in his hand, the wick was burning quietly, emitting an ominous red shimmer, attracting the horrors around him.

They cautiously distanced themselves a little from the table where the spiritual seat and the statue were placed not far away.

There are no offerings on the table, only a censer stands alone.

In the incense burner, half of the incense burns quietly, and the green smoke that emits a rotten and sweet smell is rising, echoing in the semi-enclosed secret room.

Darkness came, and footsteps approached.

After the first two attacks, Wen Jianyan's state was not good, so as a necessary "sacrifice" this time, he was protected behind several people, and it was enough to wait for everything to end.

He listened to the approaching footsteps, slowly took a deep breath, and closed his eyes.

According to previous speculations, "incense" is the guide and the medium, responsible for connecting the blood dripping incense ash with the vitality of the sacrifice, and offering it to the "customer".

Therefore, in the worship in the stairwell, what was actually consumed was the incense ash that had already absorbed the vitality of human beings.

In a sense, incense is very similar to the yellow talisman.

However, the roads made by incense are safer and more demanding.

In a complete sacrifice, the "customer" eats the "sacrifice" and enters the tomb bag by consuming incense.

But Huang Fu opened the road directly and indiscriminately. Although "customers" can enter it, other corpses that have been introduced into the tomb can also come back through this road.

"Da da da."

Footsteps are approaching.

Echoing in the semi-enclosed room, it became more and more rigid and terrifying.

And this time...

They don't have yellow talismans, so they can't make roads, they have incense, but the amount of incense is not enough for customers to eat all the offerings and open the complete road, but they can make a compromise.

The footsteps got closer.

Wen Jianyan opened her eyes and looked in the direction from which the voice came.

Due to the effect of the red candles, An Xin and Qi Qian of the Acropolis had already begun to be attacked. However, the three of them were able to attack and defend, so they were not too embarrassed to deal with.

At the same time, the "customer" continued to walk in the direction of the incense burner.

The darkness had completely covered the field of vision, and it was almost impossible to reach out and see. Wen Jianyan couldn't see what was going on in front of him, and could only identify by hearing.

The footsteps stopped.

Stopped in front of the spiritual seat where the incense burner was placed.

At the beginning, when the yellow talisman took effect, the winding muddy road was leading in the direction of the dark room.

That is to say...

The spiritual seat and portrait in the dark room, and the tomb full of spiritual seats and portraits at the end of the path are actually the coordinates of the coincidence between the two worlds.

When they perform sacrifices in the dark room, it is equivalent to shortening the physical position between the customer and the tomb. Next, they only need to wait for the barrier between the two worlds to be weakened and broken.

"Well!"

Suddenly, a groan overflowed from Wen Jianyan's throat.

He felt that the vitality in his body was rapidly draining.

That's right.

"Customers" are eating!

"It's now!!" Wen Jianyan said sternly.

"it is good!"

As if he had practiced millions of times, Qi Qian immediately quit the battle without hesitation. He raised the lit red candle in his hand, then rounded his arms, and threw it in front of the customer, that is, in the depths of the ancestral hall. past!

That little scarlet shimmer was spinning in the air, away from it—it had reached the position where it should have hit something, but strangely, it did not stop, but continued to fall into the darkness without any delay. go.

just like……

There is a farther, more terrifying space hidden in front of that darkness.

The scarlet shimmer gave off an ominous aura, illuminating the dark depths.

Because of the previous experience, the Acropolis did not pause this time, but lit the second white candle quickly.

An Xin bent down and was responsible for picking up Wen Jianyan, who had lost her strength.

Since he was already mentally prepared for his weight this time, he just stumbled a bit this time, and quickly stood up strong.

The three of them cooperated tacitly, almost seamlessly, and not a minute was wasted.

"Now—run!"
