Welcome to the Nightmare Live Chapter 260

Chapter 260

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

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

Qi Qian narrowed his eyes and asked.

"Yes," Zhang Yu nodded, "I saw it with my own eyes. After the orange candy took off the blue and black charm on the customer, it began to disappear gradually, and it didn't reappear until I found a chance to paste the yellow charm. .”

Qi Qian nodded with a sullen face: "I see."

Although he didn't experience it personally, he can basically guess some dungeon mechanisms based on his teammates' narration about what happened just now.

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

Qi Qian: "After you put the yellow talisman on the customer, what happened?"

Zhang Yu smiled wryly and shook his head: "After pasting the yellow talisman, the customer walked towards the incense burner, but I lost the ability to move, so I didn't follow, and I don't know what happened after that."

Wait, that turnover—

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

The incense in the censer has been extinguished, and only the last half of the stick is left. It can be seen from the faint light emitted by the oil lamp, but the red table beside it is empty, and there is no ghost coin left.

His expression suddenly became ugly, and his eyes flickered.

In this attack, the strength of Zhang Yu and Juzitang's two main forces was compromised. Wen Wenwen and another teammate under Juzitang also lost part of their vitality, and half of the incense was burned. Could it be that... After paying such a high price, hasn't the ownership of the turnover been snatched from them in the end?

If this is the case, they are probably at a loss.

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

"Don't worry, we've got the turnover."

Qi Qian turned his head and looked in the direction of the voice.

Wen Jianyan stood up with Su Cheng's hand, and said, "If I'm not wrong, the Mingbi this time should be in the dark room."

Everyone was startled.

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

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

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

After seeing this red Ming coin, everyone couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief, showing a relaxed expression.

Wen Jianyan's gaze stayed on the Ming coin for a moment, and he left it as soon as he touched it.

really.

The ghost coins were placed on the table before, because under the action of the sacrifice, the "customers" entered the tomb through the red wooden furniture, so their ghost coins were left near the incense burner, and The last "customer" did not finish eating the offering, but stepped on the path led by the yellow talisman, and walked in under the lure of the red candle, so its ghost coin did not stay near the incense burner, but Near the spiritual position.

This also shows that the series of purchasing behaviors of "customers" are most likely the product of the dungeon rules of [Prosperity Building], rather than their active choice.

After confirming that the turnover had not disappeared, the atmosphere relaxed a little.

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

"Although we did get this ghost coin, the loss we suffered is still real." Qi Qian frowned, with a serious expression on his face, "the most important thing is that our incense is 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 sticks out.

If it wasn't for the "customer" disrupting the situation this time, the resources in their hands would be just enough to receive two customers, one stick of incense and one yellow talisman. However, since the second customer was driven by the anchor in another store 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 Candy said, "A charm? I still have one here."

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

yes!

The yellow talisman was obtained by Qi Qian's team from the second floor to the third floor, so, logically speaking, the orange candy team should also have a talisman!

"As long as you stick it on the customer's body, it will enter the store of other anchors, and then we just need to wait?" Orange Tang said.

This is indeed an excellent method, and they can completely reap the benefits, but surprisingly, Wen Jianyan shook his head and raised an objection: "I don't recommend doing this."

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

"No."

Wen Jianyan still had that calm and gentle expression on his face, as if he was not irritated by Orange Tang's tone at all.

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

"No matter whether the 'customer' is dealt with in another store or sent back to our store, we will continue to use the original resources to contact the 'customer' directly on the premise of losing a very important spell. Therefore, using this spell now, no matter from which angle you look at it, is a loss."

Wen Jianyan said rationally.

Of course, this is an excuse on the surface.

For Wen Jianyan, there is another reason that cannot be announced to the public for the time being, which makes him even more unable to let go.

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

"So, I wouldn't recommend pinning your hopes for this last coin on other teams' mistakes—especially if there are other ways," he added.

"Oh?" Qi Qian cheered up and became interested, "Other methods?"

"Don't worry, in this dungeon, as long as you figure out the path of the rules, you can get countless solutions to the problem..." Wen Jianyan smiled, and in the dim light of the oil lamp, the pale face showed a smile. A trace of strangeness inconsistent with temperament: "Even in the case of insufficient resources."

Inside the Changsheng Building, darkness enveloped the fourth floor.

The four shops are located in the southeast, northwest, respectively, and there are two lit lanterns hanging on both sides of the door, like two eyes shining in the dark.

Inside the transparent glass door, there was a little 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 ring ring!"

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

A pitch-black figure slowly walked in from the outside, the cold and rotten air engulfed in from the outside, and the temperature in the room dropped rapidly.

If nothing else, this should be the last customer.

Zhang Yu, Orange Tang, Su Cheng and other anchors whose vitality had been eroded stayed behind the counter, waiting in the safe area covered by oil lamps.

Hearing the stiff footsteps gradually approaching, Su Cheng couldn't help showing an anxious expression 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 said with even more worry on his face, "but his condition shouldn't be involved in this operation..."

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

"But don't worry, after all, with the captain and the others around, everything will be fine."

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

"If things go well, this should be the last customer we have on this floor."

While the two were talking in low voices, the footsteps of customers got 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 stopped talking, and began to nervously wait for that moment to come.

The footsteps continued to approach.

It kept jumping over the red tables and chairs, walked towards the counter, and then passed the counter without any delay, and walked straight towards the inside.

In the direction the footsteps were heading for, there was a dark room with the door open.

In the depths of the dark room are Qi Qian, Wen Jianyan, Wei Cheng, and An Xin.

Qi Qian held a red candle in his hand, and the wick was quietly burning, emitting an ominous red gleam, attracting the terrifying existence around him.

They cautiously kept a little distance from the table where the coffins and portraits were placed not far away.

There were no sacrifices on the table, only an incense burner was placed alone.

In the incense burner, half of the incense was burning quietly, and the green smoke exuding a rotten sweet smell rose slowly, echoing in the semi-closed chamber.

Darkness came, and footsteps approached.

After the previous two attacks, Wen Jianyan's condition 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.

Hearing the approaching footsteps, he took a deep breath slowly and closed his eyes.

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

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

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

It's just that the road made by Xiang is safer and the conditions are more stringent.

During a complete sacrifice, the "customer" eats the "sacrifice" and enters the grave bag by consuming incense.

However, Huang Fu directly opened the road without distinction. Although "customers" can enter it, other corpses that have been introduced into the grave can also come back through this road.

"Da da da."

Footsteps were approaching.

Echoing in the semi-enclosed room, it looks more and more stiff 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 tributes and open a complete road. However, they can make a compromise.

The footsteps came closer.

Wen Jianyan opened his eyes and looked in the direction of the voice.

Due to the effect of the red candle, the three of Weicheng An Xin and Qi Qian had already been attacked. However, the three of them were able to attack and defend, so it was not too embarrassing to deal with them.

At the same time, the "customer" continued to walk towards the incense burner.

The darkness has completely covered the field of vision, and it can be regarded as almost invisible. Wen Jianyan can't see what's going on in front of him clearly, so he can only identify it by hearing.

The footsteps stopped.

He stopped in front of the spiritual tablet where the incense burner was placed.

But back then, when the yellow talisman was in effect, the winding muddy path led towards the dark room.

That is to say...

The coffins and portraits in the dark room, and the tombs filled with coffins and portraits at the end of the path, are actually coordinates that overlap between the two worlds.

They perform sacrifices in the dark room, which 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 muffled hum escaped from Wen Jianyan's throat.

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

That's right.

The "customer" is eating!

"It's now!" Wen Jianyan snapped.

"good!"

As if he had practiced millions of times, Qi Qian immediately left the battle without hesitation. He raised the lit red candle in his hand, then swung his arms round, and threw it towards the front of the customer, which is the place deep in the ancestral hall. past!

That scarlet gleam was spinning in the air, moving away—it had reached the position where it should have hit something, but the strange thing was that it didn't stop, but continued to fall into the darkness without any delay .

just like…

There is something more distant and more terrifying space hidden in front of that darkness.

An ominous crimson gleam illuminated the dark depths.

Since he already had an experience, Acropolis did not stop this time, but quickly lit a second white candle.

An Xin bent down and was responsible for hugging the exhausted Wen Jianyan by the waist.

Since he was mentally prepared for his weight this time, he only staggered a bit this time, and quickly straightened up firmly.

The three of them cooperated tacitly, almost seamlessly, without wasting a single minute.

"Now—run!"
