Welcome to the Nightmare Live

Chapter 282

The gentleman had an impeccable smile on his face like a plane model, and his movements were elegant and polite, and he naturally made an invitation to the young man in front of him. The feeling of incongruity still existed, giving people an inexplicable sense of unease.

Wen Jianyan's eyes flashed.

Even if the other party is not in the top ten, just as an invitation as the vice president of the Oracle, Wen Jianyan will definitely not refuse.

However, before he was about to raise his hand to take the other party's business card, he heard a loose voice from behind:

"... I will naturally tell him the rules, and do I need your intervention?"

The gentleman's eyes moved, and those dead gray withered eyes looked behind Wen Jianyan.

Tangerine Candy sat in the chair, her already slender figure was made even more petite, she supported her chin lazily, tilted her head and looked over, the look in her eyes was a little unpredictable.

The smile on the gentleman's face remains impeccable:

"I just want to make friends. After all, if he really succeeds, he will be one of us in the future, and we have to get along well in the future."

"…"

Tangerine Candy narrowed his eyes slowly.

At that moment, the irrelevant look on her face disappeared as if it had faded away, and there was only a strong impatience left. Suddenly, she smiled and jumped off the chair lightly. After coming down, he walked over step by step with a smile on his face, and his whole body revealed an unstable and crazy temperament.

The smile on the gentleman's face subsided slightly, but he still did not make any movement.

Tangerine Candy stretched out two fingers, pinched the corner of the business card in the gentleman's hand in disgust, pulled it out lightly, and then——"Thorn." The shrill sound of paper being torn to pieces resounded in the huge hall.

Another sound.

Tangerine Candy unhurriedly shredded the business card one after another, and finally sprinkled the snow-like confetti on the ground. She had a big smile on her face the whole time:

"Who wants to be friends with you, idiot."

"…"

The gentleman still had a graceful smile on his face, and he didn't seem to be irritated by Tangerine Candy's behavior, but his temperament was obviously gloomy, showing a sense of depression before the storm.

The mason's voice came from behind:

"Tangerine Candy, what are you doing? People are just expressing their friendliness. Your reaction is too big."

Wen Jianyan looked sideways slightly, just in line with the mason's gaze.

The other party's gaze was like a sticky snake, winding up along his skin: "Or... do you want to monopolize our lovely newcomer?"

The moment his voice fell, the air instantly became tense.

Not far away, Bai Xue still lowered her head expressionlessly, stacking cards one by one on the table, her entire figure seemed to be enclosed in a world that no one could enter, and seemed to be indifferent to everything outside. care.

Unconsciously, the atmosphere in the hall was extremely tense, and the air was pressed down like a solid semi-fluid, making it almost impossible to breathe. -"Ding!"

Without warning, a crisp metal bell rang, breaking the too dangerous atmosphere at the moment.

Several people were stunned, and turned their heads to look in the direction from which the voice came.

In the center of the red round wooden table, there is a small copper clock. The dial is empty, with only a few pointers of different lengths, some of which are still, and some are rotating at different speeds.

However, unlike just now, a pointer that is neither long nor short suddenly appeared on the dial.

The Roman numeral "4" is marked on it.

The hands rotate at an exceptionally fast speed, approaching the top of the dial one by one, giving a sense of imminent urgency.

- There is only one possibility.

Although Wen Jianyan is not yet an official member of the secret council, even so, he can guess the current situation based on previous information.

No. 4, who was in the dungeon before, has returned.

And according to the rules of the secret council, except for the first three, as long as all the other members must be present... Obviously

Soon, footsteps came from outside the closed door.

The footsteps stopped at the gate.

In the sac time, the air was dead silent, and in the huge conference hall, only the mechanical rustling of the cards being turned over could be heard.

"Squeak-"

The heavy rust-red door was slowly pushed open from the outside, and a strange figure appeared outside the door.

It was a man who was at least 1.9 meters tall. His face was very handsome, his eyebrows and eyes were tired, and his tall stature gave people a strong sense of oppression. Breathless, unbelievable.

"…"

Wen Jianyan was startled.

This person... is clearly the appearance chosen by Tangerine Candy just now.

At that moment, Wen Jianyan immediately understood the answers to many questions.

Since the top ten anchors basically don't need to use the appearance in the secret council, when he sees Tangerine Candy, the mason is very likely to behave like that-he thought that the other party knew the Tangerine Candy under the appearance, but now he sees it. Come on, the mason is most likely to know the appearance of Tangerine Candy first, so after the door was opened, when he saw Wen Jianyan and Tangerine Tang who had returned to normal walking in, a gloomy look appeared on his face.

And... the status of this No. 04 must not be low, otherwise the mason would not choose to give in so easily in the corridor.

"I didn't expect you to be back so early, Hugo."

The gentleman turned his head, still with the same dripping smile on his face.

The tall man raised his eyes and swept across the hall in front of him, his eyes stayed on Wen Jianyan's body for a moment.

"Newbie?"

"Yes." The gentleman said with a smile, "Isn't it hard to think that the current newcomer is really not to be underestimated, and actually replaced No. 08... It's really potential."

"Well.

The other party responded without emotion.

"Has it been said?"

Gentleman: "Yes."

"Hey." Tangerine Tang smiled yin and yang, "All?"

"Not quite."

Unexpectedly, with a regretful smile on his face, the gentleman admitted generously, "After all, I am also a little selfish."

His eyes wandered on Tangerine Candy and Wen Jianyan, the smile on his lips deepened slightly, and he seemed very surprised:

"I just didn't expect that you would be interested in this kind of activity... It's not quite like you."

"So what?" Tangerine Candy said with a smile, "None of your business."

"OK then.

The gentleman sighed, turned to look at Wen Jianyan, and said helplessly, "I was going to discuss it with you in private, but now it seems that I have no other choice."

"Your next dungeon will be a match against the original No. 008. However, as a rookie, your advantage is obviously smaller, so, firstly, to improve the challenger's winning rate, and secondly, to improve the viewing of the dungeon Sex, you are eligible to apply for help from any member of the top ten, of course, No. 008 also has the same qualification, but the membership qualification he applied for will definitely be lower than you."

If the member agrees to your invitation to go to the next instance to help you successfully win the game, he will receive half of your reward. "

The gentleman shook his head gracefully:

"I wanted to recommend myself to you at dinner tonight, but unfortunately..."

He pointedly glanced at the orange candy:

"Looks like you're more attractive than I thought."

"Wait a minute," Wen Jianyan narrowed her eyes and caught the point of what the other party just said: "In other words, the helper that the last 008 looked for can't have a better overall ranking in the standings than the one I found. higher?"

"That's right," the gentleman nodded with a smile and picked out the words lightly, "This means that if you invite me, No. 008 will not be able to invite any member in the top ten."

From any angle, this is a sure-fire business.

Tangerine Candy's expression darkened:

"you--"

"..." Hugo raised his hand and stopped Tangerine Candy's speech.

Unexpectedly, although Tangerine Candy was dissatisfied, it really quieted down.

He turned his head to look at Wen Jianyan, his voice was deep, and there was no emotion at all:

"Apart from the top three, no other member of your invitation can refuse - of course, including me."

"Remember to submit your application before moving on to the next copy after you've decided."

After speaking, Hugo raised his hand, pinched the bridge of his nose, and his face became even more tired: "Okay, everything should be fine now, the meeting is over."

After speaking, the tall man turned around and left the parliament hall without looking back.

As soon as he left, the breathless oppression disappeared.

"If that's the case, it's time for me to take my leave." The mason stood up, straightened his clothes, and walked towards the door.

When he was about to pass Wen Jianyan's shoulders, he paused, and his sticky eyes fell on Wen Tongyan's face. There was a trace of unremarkable expression on the plain and unremembered face. Uncomfortable smile "Of course, if you're willing to invite me... I'm also willing to join."

After dropping a specious sentence, the mason nodded at the others:

"Goodbye."

The door of the parliament hall opened again, and his mid-sized back disappeared behind the door.

The gentleman on the side stepped forward again.

He took out a business card from his pocket again, handed it to Wen Jianyan, and smiled decently:

"My suggestion, you can consider it."

"..."

This time, although the expression on Tangerine Candy's face was still not good-looking, he did not intervene.

Wen Jian glanced at the orange candy beside him without a trace.

He looked at the gentleman, and there was a polite smile on his lips:

"No need."

Tangzi Tang was startled, tilted his head slightly, and looked in Wen Jianyan's direction in surprise, obviously not expecting that the other party would reject the gentleman's invitation.

"OK then."

The gentleman sighed regretfully and tucked the business card back into his jacket pocket.

He picked up the top hat from the table, put it back on his head, and nodded at Wen Jianyan: "if you change your mind, you can contact me from the leaderboard at any time."

After speaking, the gentleman turned around and disappeared at the door as well.

In the huge parliamentary hall, only Wen Jianyan, Tangerine Candy, and Bai Xue were left.

Bai Xue was still immersed in her own world, one by one at the speed of the paper, the rustling sound of the cards swayed in the ears of everyone, which seemed monotonous and treacherous.

"Why did you reject him?"

Tangerine Candy tilted his head and frowned at Wen Jianyan.

After all, anyone of normal intelligence would realize how alluring a gentleman's invitation can be.

Since the top ten are not completely ranked by strength, compared with 008, who has been in the top ten for a long time, Wen Jianyan has an advantage in selecting candidates. In this case, the best way is to choose the anchor with the lowest ranking. , stuck the opponent's invitation limit...

But what I didn't expect was that Wen Jianyan refused now without hesitation.

"It's very simple."

Wen Jianyan's eyebrows and eyes are curved, and there is a soft light in the bottom of the amber eyes:

"You don't want me to go, do you?"

"...?!"

The other party jumped up irritably as if his feet were suddenly poked: "Ha? Don't think too much, I just hate that idiot."

"really."

Wen Jianyan didn't expose it, nodded in agreement, and followed the other party's words: "I hate him too."

Tangerine Candy: "..."

She made a low "cut" and looked away awkwardly.

Wen Jianyan's smile deepened.

Of course, according to the original plan, he was very willing to have private contact with the gentleman, but the abnormality of Tangerine Candy made him change his mind.

Years of his career taught him how to stabilize his partner—especially in the midst of nightmares.

The environment in this article is too extreme, which leads to the same for the anchors in it. The people who are not extreme are in the minority. It is not worth it to throw away all the foundation he has laid before just for one encounter with a gentleman.

more importantly……

Wen Jianyan felt that Juzitanggang's behavior was not that simple. After all, if he just didn't want him to agree to make a copy with the gentleman, it would be enough to remind him after the meeting. However, Juzitang chose to use the most extreme method. The way to provoke contradictions, in addition to her own personality, there may be deeper, but unable to mention reasons.

After all, Wen Jianyan is not yet an official member, and is not qualified to touch the essence of the secret council. Even if Tangerine Tang really knows something, I am afraid that he will not be able to tell him. Plus……

The anchor hall is not completely safe.

You know, the last time Su Cheng made a move in the anchor hall, he was trapped in the copy of [Peace Nursing Home], and the person who started it was one of the oracles.

And the gentleman is the vice president of the Oracle Guild, which makes Wen Jianyan not cautious.

Therefore, for various reasons, Wen Jianyan finally chose to refuse the gentleman's invitation and not meet with the other party in private.

"Crack."

The last screech of cards fell.

It's over.

The expressionless white-haired boy slowly put the stacks of cards on the table back into his palm, then pushed away the chair, stood up, and walked towards the door.

When he was about to pass Wen Jianyan, he suddenly raised his eyes and looked over.

The strange thing is that, contrary to his pigmented skin and hair, Bai Xue's eyes are so dark that it is unimaginable, like two bottomless black holes that can swallow all light and shadow, thus appearing strange and empty. The gloomy atmosphere always makes people shudder when they are stared at by these eyes.

Even Wen Jianyan couldn't help but feel a little shocked.

"Watch out for shadows."

Bai Xue's voice was green and hoarse, like a teenager who hasn't completed his voice-changing period.

After he threw the word thoughtlessly, the other party withdrew his gaze again, lowered his head expressionlessly, and walked out of the door slowly.

"It's rare, he rarely gives advice."

Tangerine Candy tilted his head, widened his eyes in surprise, and murmured, "It seems that the gentleman is right, you are indeed quite charming."

"Suggestion? Is he a prophet?" Wen Jianyan asked, looking at Bai Xue's back.

"No." Tangerine Candy shrugged. "He's a psychic."

She thought for a while and added, "I think it's the strongest among the dream demons."

Tangtang Tang seemed to think of something, and turned to look at Wen Jianyan: "However, I don't really suggest you invite him."

Wen Jianyan: "Why?"

"The survival rate of Bai Xuexia is 100%, but, do you know what the survival rate of his teammates is?

"Tangerine Candy grinned gloomily, and slowly said the result:

"0%."

"That is to say, every team he joins will end up with the same result... Except for him, no one survives."

It's almost like being cursed.

"Anyway, you'd better think carefully about who you choose to be your teammates...it's critical."

Tangerine Candy jumped back on the chair, put his legs on the table lazily, and swayed one after another.

"Because your decision will also interfere with the decision of the other side.

"That is to say...

If Wen Jianyan can choose the right teammate, it may even affect the overall situation of the next dungeon.

"As a member of the secret council, according to the rules, I can't tell you any key information," Orange Candy tilted her head and looked at Wen Jianyan who was standing aside. "The only ones I can get through are some impressions that Hugo is very strong, maybe the strongest among us - you know, I don't often praise people like this, but Hugo is really not suitable for teamfights, and No. 5 is not bad, He should be back soon, but he's a bit evil, and I don't know him very well, but you can chat with him if you're interested, of course..."

Tangerine candy eyes - floating, said:

"If you want to invite me, it's not impossible...!"
