"How is that possible?!" The middle-aged man's face was more of disbelief than fear, he didn't believe that he could overturn after learning so much information, "How is it possible, this The ghosts have already obeyed my orders, don't they say—"
Gu Wuji stepped forward to save people, but was grabbed by Rong Qingman, "Look at the speed at which the ghost devoured him, already far faster than others. After all, the relationship between him and the ghost was not as good as others. People are closely connected, but in fact they have been passively manipulated, even if the drawing board is broken, he will only die directly!"
When Rong Qingman said these words, he was still a little fortunate. If it wasn't for the careless relationship yesterday, he probably wouldn't be here now.
"The weakness of this dungeon ghost is actually very easy to find. There will be some information hints where the ghost is, such as being afraid of fire or something else... But this is a trap. In fact, these ghosts are just disguised obedience and will catch Take every opportunity to attack the player."
Even someone as powerful as Rong Qingman couldn't resist, let alone the middle-aged man.
"Impossible! I don't believe—"
In the wailing of the middle-aged man, everyone discovered that his body had long been closely connected with the existence in the canvas, but in the blink of an eye, the figure had disappeared from the canvas.
On the canvas, there is a scene of two twisted ghosts entangled with each other, and the screams of people can be heard faintly when approached.
The red-haired follower sighed and said, "Since last night, I have felt that eldest brother is not right. He suddenly woke up in the middle of the night and sleepwalked... But I told him in the morning that he felt that he was completely fine, and sure enough... "
The other two people present were shocked, and almost lost the drawing tools in their hands like touching a hot potato, but in fact, long ago when the drawing board in front of them was broken, they could no longer feel the existence of ghosts in their bodies. .
"There's no time now." Gu Wuji said, "Let's escape quickly. If I'm not mistaken, the ghosts in this dungeon will appear soon."
"They haven't disappeared yet?" The others took a deep breath, thinking that the ghosts had all dissipated as the drawing board was broken.
"They are the ghosts that have been in this room for so long, how can they dissipate so easily." Rong Qingman said, and looked at Gu Wuji again, his eyes seemed to be asking about the ghost on him.
Gu Wuji shook his head.
In the next moment, the male ghost attached to him suddenly appeared, with a painful expression on his face, but he said with a firm expression, "I finally remembered!"
The people around looked over in horror.
"What did you think of?" Gu Wuji looked over.
"I don't know if it's because of the loose bond in this room, I suddenly remembered the past..." The ghost murmured in a low voice, with a twist on his face from time to time, as if saying these words were right As far as he is concerned, it takes a lot of energy. "I used to be friends with the owner of this studio, so when I was in the studio, he also took care of me."
"When my painting skills improved, he also congratulated me very sincerely, and comforted me that the abnormality in painting before was just too much pressure. But I didn't expect that all this was just the beginning of the curse."
"If you want to escape, you can only go to the third floor! Only there is the key to unlocking the curse."
The ghost said, the figure has dimmed.
The others were stunned, but even if they suspected that what the ghost in front of them said was false, they could only do what the other said. After all, the truth of this copy is obviously hidden on the third floor.
[Main quest: Draw a million paintings, fail. ]
[Trigger new main quest: learn the truth about this cursed studio. ]
[Because the players did not follow the original rules in the studio, the ghosts in the studio have entered a manic state and will do everything possible to kill the player. ]
The system has released tasks, and everyone is ready to run in a hurry.
And although this new quest still seems to be difficult to complete, no matter how you look at it, it is a quest that will appear in ordinary dungeons. The task of painting before is that if you continue to paint, there will only be an ending to death.
Gu Wuji pondered, "It seems that the real mainline can only be triggered by the failure of the mission. The fate of the failed mission in the system prompt is a hint to the real approach."
But no one dared to take the risk of not completing the main quest.
Originally, Gu Wuji told Rong Qingman yesterday that he planned not to finish the painting today and see what would happen if the mission failed.
xiaoshuting.la
Rong Qingman originally just thought that Gu Wuji was too holy, and he was the first to come out and willing to do such a thing... But after what happened last night, he simply admired Gu Wuji's behavior to the extreme. , even today I don't even draw at all.
But I didn't expect that the limit of the main quest of this system was already today, and it didn't even give players a chance to take a day off.
The group immediately left this weird basement in a hurry, and when they walked on the road, they felt that the aura of the outside world was extremely cold.
When everyone came out of the basement, they immediately showed a terrifying look, and the hall that seemed to be covering up something had already revealed its true face.
Blood was splattered everywhere, and the surrounding furniture was all covered with weird graffiti, and the walls facing the players were painted with bloody huge eyeballs.
Rong Qingman frowned when he saw the graffiti, as if he remembered something, but he couldn't.
When everyone passed through the storage room, the male ghost on Gu Wuji suddenly said, "Be careful!"
The next moment, the female ghost suddenly became manic, looking like she was about to break free from Gu Wuji, her face was extremely ferocious, and she kept roaring, scaring the people around her.
Gu Wuji sighed, "I really can't control it anymore..."
In the shocked eyes of the others, Gu Wuji stretched out a confinement magic, and temporarily suppressed the female ghost on his body.
This is also because Gu Wuji used the charcoal pen he brought with him yesterday, and did not allow these ghosts to possess himself and successfully contact the paintings, making them less powerful than other ghosts, or just relying on Gu Wuji Probably not yet.
But even so, the female ghost continued to struggle, as if she would break free from her confinement and attack everyone in the next moment.
Everyone is still in a daze, when have they seen such a powerful scene? ! How did you just stretch out your hand to suppress the ghost!
Although they knew that Sun Shi was powerful, they had previously thought that the other party was powerful in terms of gays.
The bound ghost that Rong Qingman was carrying was equally mad, and their current situation was as if they had been untied of some kind and lost their minds.
"What are you doing, keep walking, and go to the third floor." Rong Qingman urged everyone through gritted teeth. In fact, he didn't bother to care about the lives of these ordinary players.
The others came back to their senses and ran towards the upstairs position as if flying immediately. In fact, they all wanted to escape the dungeon directly from the gate, but before they knew the truth of this dungeon, they knew about such behavior. It is no different from death.
Gu Wuji, who followed behind, looked at the position of the door, then turned to look at Rong Qingman, who nodded solemnly.
When everyone rushed to the second floor, they immediately saw an extremely terrifying scene.
The paintings on the walls seemed to come alive, and the pair of icy eyes stared at everyone gloomily, and the blood on the paintings continued to flow to the ground.
The window at the end was even more open, revealing a strange red light outside.
"What the hell... What's going on outside this villa?"
"Fortunately, we didn't go out from the first floor just now."
Everyone can't help but have lingering fears, but it is conceivable that if they enter the bloody world, the ending will be self-evident.
But these portraits are definitely not easy to deal with. Everyone had to take out all the props on their bodies and bravely pass through them. When they entered the range in front of the portraits, they were just ghosts looking at the outside world gloomily, and their faces immediately grinned. , the body suddenly pierced out of the picture, and grabbed at the crowd.
The players opened the props on their bodies one after another, so that they could barely resist the attack of the ghost and continue to walk.
But even so, it is difficult for these props to last too long under the attack of ghosts, not to mention that the blood on the ground will block the way at some point, and their faces are extremely ugly.
Gu Wuji walked over and stopped directly in front of a portrait. The latter sneered and attacked Gu Wuji, but Gu Wuji directly pressed his shoulders when he protruded out.
Ghost in the portrait: "???"
"I'm sorry, although you seem very enthusiastic, and I want to communicate with you more, but I don't have time now." Gu Wuji said this, but he forced the ghost back into the portrait.
other people:"… "
Rong Qingman looked like a proud man, as if he didn't care about his own family.
When Gu Wuji continued to walk forward, the ghosts in the portrait actually shrank, and their eyes looked in other directions, trying to pretend that they didn't see anything.
Others: "??!" Are you still the scary ghost in this dungeon? !
Under the leadership of Gu Wuji, everyone no longer had the nervousness before, and the walk went extremely smoothly, making them all wonder what they thought they were going to die for.
Is this what it feels like to be able to hug the big guy's thigh! It was so touching that they all began to regret that they had not been more attentive in the first place.
As for Rong Qingman, he walked at the end, ready to see what happened to these portraits.
The last portrait was not so simple. The one that appeared on it was the middle-aged man and another ghost. The two of them seemed to be fused together, and they looked extremely strange, making people feel uncomfortable.
After seeing Gu Wuji, the ghost's eyes showed resentment, but he didn't care about the ghosts in front of him at all, but directly attacked Gu Wuji, with an unpleasant hoarse sneer in his mouth.
"Even if I die, I will drag you to bury!!"
What is even more frightening is that the ghost is still dripping blood like melting, and it feels that it will be corroded when touched by hand. Maybe this is the relationship that it can be so unscrupulous.
Gu Wuji didn't know where this person had such a big hatred of himself, and when the other party appeared, he directly took out the female ghost who was still in a state of madness.
The ghost who was still very proud on the original portrait suddenly froze, and his face was faintly frightened.
After all, he felt that he was not afraid of doing nothing, but this female ghost... After merging the memories of this dungeon ghost, he knew that this female ghost was so crazy that he couldn't even beg the opponent to fight against him.
"That, in fact, I... You see that everyone was a player before, so... "
In the next moment, Gu Wuji took advantage of the situation to send the female ghost directly into it, and untied the bondage on the other party's body, "I'm sorry, I'm on my way, I'll go first. If you want to chat, you can talk to this lady. say."
Everyone seemed to be able to hear the mourning sound coming from the portrait. But they didn't care so much, so the red-haired follower took a last peek, and then sighed.
His previous admiration for this middle-aged man came from the heart, but who would have thought that the other party was actually such a person.
And Rong Qingman also stuffed the bound ghost on his side into this portrait with an indifferent expression, and didn't care at all whether the people inside would be crowded.
The ghosts in the portrait: "… "
When Gu Wuji came to the corner of the third floor, he turned his head to look at the outside window.
This window did not become a picture frame at this time, which means that the scene it revealed was not a painting, but the real appearance of the outside world.
I saw that the fog from the outside world had dissipated, and a whole villa area appeared in front of him. Everything seemed to be covered with a blood-colored gauze, revealing a strange red.
And these villas don't seem to be real... In fact, it's like a painting, and the buildings in the distance can even see traces of brushstrokes.
"Sure enough, this place is the world in the painting. But if it is Jin Yu's painting, it must be so real that people can't recognize it." Gu Wuji thought so, and hurried up the stairs.
But obviously, before the group could go up, the road was blocked by black mist. The road to the third floor was not opened due to the change of the main quest.
Everyone's faces turned pale, "What should I do, those portraits will follow after this..."
"According to the rules of previous dungeons, as time goes by, the ghost of this dungeon will definitely become stronger and stronger, and even Big Brother Sun Shi may not be able to do it..."
"How can I get up?"
The male ghost on Gu Wuji appeared again. He didn't seem to be in good condition. He seemed to be trying his best to resist the erosion of this copy. At the same time, he looked at Gu Wuji, "I know how to get up!"
Even if they knew that there might be a problem, everyone could only look at them one after another, trying to seize this last hope.
"Generally, the road on the third floor opens only when the portrait on the first floor is complete."
And other people who come to this dungeon usually just depends on luck. If the players who just died meet the requirements, they can enter the third floor and run away.
But if the portrait can't be completed, everyone else will be almost dead.
"You may have noticed that this world is actually just a painting. So its space is different from the outside world." The male ghost gritted his teeth: "As long as we draw the road to the third floor on the wall, we can directly into it."
"But, how can we do such a thing." Gu Wuji looked over curiously.
"After all, you are all outsiders, and you don't understand this place." The male ghost said: "I am the only one who has been to the third floor. I can draw it... However, I need a person to be possessed by me."
Everyone immediately showed their intention to retreat. They had experienced those things before, how could they dare to stand up at this time.
What's more, this male ghost doesn't seem to have any problems, but who knows what actually happened. It's too hard for them to believe in a ghost.
Gu Wuji said, "Just let me come."
Rong Qingman's face showed disapproval, "No, you can't have any problems! Can't you let this garbage go?"
The players who were humiliated by him couldn't get angry, they could only show shame. After all, they were really useless at this time, but they couldn't stand up and risk their lives.
Only the red-haired follower took a deep breath and stepped forward with a trembling body, "Let, let me come."
"No need." Gu Wuji was a little surprised, then patted the servant on the shoulder, "It's okay, I'll just come. You've all been possessed by ghosts once before, and you don't know what will happen again, but I I've never been possessed before, so it shouldn't be a problem now."
In fact, other people thought the same, but when Gu Wuji said it out, they felt more and more shameless.
Rong Qingman gritted his teeth, coldly swept over the people around him, and finally could only say, "That's it." Then he looked at the others, "If something happens to him, you people. Don't even think about it!"
Gu Wuji had already picked up the paintbrush from his arms and stood by the wall looking ready.
The ghost's face seemed to show joy, but after a short while, almost no one else could react, and he had already got into the pen held in Gu Wuji's hand.
In the next moment, the pen in Gu Wuji's hand moved by himself, and quickly drew a door on the wall. The door was almost real, and no one could see any traces of the drawing.
After the door was painted, everyone was stunned to find that there was a black mist coming from behind them, "Damn it! Let's go in quickly."
Gu Wuji nodded and pushed the door open. What appeared in front of everyone was a hall filled with various statues and portraits hanging on the walls. It is more like an art exhibition than a private residence.
Just considering that the owner himself is a painter, it is normal to decorate it like this.
Everyone entered, Rong Qingman walked in and checked around, then nodded to Gu Wuji, "No problem, this is indeed the real third floor."
At this time, the black fog was already approaching behind him, and Gu Wuji stepped forward and walked in.
At the moment when the door behind Gu Wuji closed, the room suddenly lit up, but red light was emitted around it, and the artwork suddenly became very strange under the light, making other players take a deep breath.
But the ghost in the pen in Gu Wuji's hand suddenly appeared. At this time, its image has become extremely distorted, and its face is full of ferocious colors. It is completely different from the harmless image of humans and animals before.
"You... Damn, there really is a problem!" Rong Qingman's face changed, and he gritted his teeth, "Lost that pen!"
Gu Wuji didn't move, because he knew it was impossible for him to throw away the pen. But he still looked at the ghost calmly, "You finally showed your true colors."
"Oh? You've already seen it?" The ghost seemed to be certain that he would be able to successfully possess himself right away, not in a hurry, and even communicated with Gu Wuji.
The other people's expressions changed, and Rong Qingman wanted to come forward to help, but the surrounding statues and paintings began to change, making them unable to come here at all.
"After all, no matter how you think about it, you are very strange, whether it's suddenly remembering the previous memory, or keeping calm when other ghosts are frantic." Gu Wuji said: "If I didn't guess. If it's wrong, you're the ghost of the owner..."
After all, the news I heard before was that there were eight painters who died tragically, and whether it was the number of meals or the number corresponding to the players, it was eight. At first glance, there was no problem, but when you think about it, you can feel it. Wrong place.
Logically speaking, the owner of this house should have been here all the time, and would eat and live with other people in the studio. Could it be that the owner of the house would go out to eat by himself when other people were eating
Gu Wuji had already begun to suspect that one of these dead people was the mysterious owner of this house.
"That's right." The ghost looked at Gu Wuji with a very satisfied expression, "Early when you came in, I realized that my most perfect painting can finally be completed!"
Gu Wuji was silent for a moment. Was it really aimed at him from the beginning
"Even if you sacrifice yourself, you have to open this door to let others in. I really admire you. You are indeed the most perfect model in my opinion." The ghost's words were already a bit fanatical, "As long as I If you can integrate your soul into that painting, even that person's painting can't compare to mine!"
When he heard that person, Gu Wuji immediately understood who he was talking about. It seemed that this copy was indeed related to Jin Yu.
"The trouble is, I didn't expect you to bring other painting tools from outside, so that I couldn't be possessed at that time..." The ghost said with dissatisfaction, "But it doesn't matter even if it's a little late, everything will end in the end. Still the same, now your soul is mine—"
The ghost's face suddenly changed, it seemed to realize something, and looked at Gu Wuji in amazement, "How is that possible?! Why can't I feel the connection with your soul?"
Gu Wuji said: "After all, you were too impatient before, and you haven't confirmed at all what the brush in my hand is."
What Gu Wuji took out before was not the pencil possessed by the ghost at all, but the broken paintbrush given by the system when he was outside.
Before that, he had been thinking about the use of the pen given by the system. But later, I found out that the broken brush was very similar to other painting tools in this studio, and it came from the same place.
Even... the broken paintbrush is most likely owned by the ghost of the homeowner before.
It is precisely because of this that Gu Wuji moved his hands and feet when he took out the pen. And because the other party was too urgent, he didn't confirm it at all. He just felt the familiar aura and hurriedly attached himself to it.
The ghost's face became extremely ugly, and there was already killing intent in his eyes. After all, there is not much time left for him now. That person has already discovered the existence of this place. If it is delayed...
"You still have this trick, I underestimate you." The ghost sneered, "But even if the contract between souls is not reached, of course I can do it by my own strength. This is my territory, you don't care. It's because his strength is stronger than ordinary people, but it's still wishful thinking to resist me!"
Then, the ghost suddenly rushed towards Gu Wuji's body.
The author has something to say: Shura Field Countdown (?)
