[Are players sure you want to enter the dungeon in advance? ]
"That's right." Gu Wuji nodded.
[Because the player enters the dungeon more than ten days in advance, more detailed clues will be provided. ]
[After entering the studio, all the things on the surface are not necessarily real, and the most important things will only be discovered if you look for them patiently.
… It's not until you see that painting that you finally realize what you've come to do in this place. ]
[Warning: Basic drawing knowledge is required in this instance. ]
Afterwards, a glowing object appeared in Gu Wuji's hand. He opened his hand and saw that it was a brush that looked torn apart.
"Is this the key item for this copy?" Gu Wuji immediately put it away and waited to see when it would be useful.
The last prompt from the system made him guess something, and he was a little confused about the development of this dungeon. As for the others, we will definitely know after entering the copy.
Gu Wuji didn't buy the materials sold by the so-called high-level players, and he didn't spend thousands of points to buy fake materials. But other players in this dungeon may buy it... He will just ask the other party when the time comes.
This time, when he entered the dungeon, Gu Wuji didn't find any acquaintances to go in with him. After all, he didn't want other people to lose their lives because of it. He was enough alone.
What's more... There is a very high possibility that there are two ghost bosses involved with him in this dungeon.
In fact, this is what Gu Wuji thinks is the most dangerous part of this dungeon.
-------
When Gu Wuji woke up, he found himself standing at the door of a villa.
The time is day, but the surrounding tones look grey and give a gloomy feel. In front of him was a three-storey villa. The style looked familiar. The surroundings were surrounded by mist, and the shadows of other villas could be vaguely seen.
It seems that this villa is not in the wilderness with no one around, but in this dungeon it is impossible to get out. In fact, it is no different from the ruins in the wilderness.
It was just at this moment that Gu Wuji's mind couldn't help but see what he saw from the painting when he was in the dungeon of the abandoned hospital... I couldn't help but feel a little uneasy in my heart, there's no way this is Jin Yu's home, right? .
"It shouldn't be possible."
Seven players walked beside him, all dressed in similar clothes as Gu Wuji, looking at the buildings next to him with vigilant expressions, they all seemed prepared.
Gu Wuji really wanted to see who might have purchased information from advanced players, but no matter how he looked at it, he felt that it was quite possible for everyone.
[You are a group of reporters who want to make big news, so you quietly came to this studio in an abandoned villa. ]
[All the painters who came out of this studio kept silent about what happened to them, as if it was a very terrifying experience, and after that, everyone died unexpectedly, and no one was spared. As for the owner of the studio, he has disappeared mysteriously, and the police can't find any trace of him.
It makes you wonder what actually happened inside. ]
[Trigger the main mission: enter the studio to explore. ]
Gu Wuji felt that if this was not the introduction of the system, the horror movie where the protagonist dies again and again must be such a bad movie! If he hadn't tried hard enough he would have died a few times.
After the system beep ended, everyone introduced themselves in a friendly manner before entering the door.
Among this group of people is a player who is said to be about to enter the advanced dungeon. He looks very handsome, and his name is Rong Qingman. He looked extremely proud, and after coldly spit out his name, he ignored the others, and no one dared to go up and talk.
The name of Rong Qingman always feels a little familiar. When did he hear it
Gu Wuji was a little puzzled and didn't think much about it. After all, the other party is someone who wants to enter the advanced dungeon. He may have seen it on the leaderboard in some system space.
Others have noticed at this time that in addition to that Rong Qingman, there is a handsome guy with amazing appearance here, and he immediately came up to chat.
Although it was said before that everyone thought that appearance had no effect in the dungeon, but after experiencing a video that exploded before, their mentality has changed slightly... I think as long as you are strong enough, even non-human NPCs can get it .
Besides, it is a pleasure to be with someone who is good-looking and has a good personality. These players have not spoken to Gu Wuji, but they already have a good impression of him. Of course, it is mainly due to the comparison of Rong Qingman over there. .
Gu Wuji also chose to fine-tune his appearance this time, using the same value as the previous few times, and introduced himself as Sun Shi.
Someone already exclaimed in a low voice: "I remembered! You are the man who was favored by the mountain god!"
Gu Wuji: "?" Why, wait, what is this name!
After the previous copy of the ghost marriage, because of the explosion of the video uploaded by Gu Wuji, he has obviously become a celebrity... And because the video is too gay, as long as you talk about the man who was attracted by the mountain god, everyone will be in the heart. Understand.
It was rare to see such a powerful person, and the rest of the people looked over with a look of amazement at the boss. Of course, in such a difficult dungeon, everyone has some trump cards, so no one knows if it is fake or not.
Only Rong Qingman turned his head and glanced coldly. There seemed to be a bit of sarcasm in his eyes. He felt that these people were very boring, and went straight to the steps of the villa, reaching out and pushing the door open.
"If you have time to talk nonsense there, why don't you hurry in. Time is precious." The handsome man said this coldly, turned around and entered the room.
The expressions of everyone changed slightly. One of the middle-aged men, who looked very ordinary and unimpressive, gestured to the person behind him with his eyes, and then the young man with a few tufts of red hair on his head immediately said deliberately: "It's just a bit powerful, I thought I am amazing, others are not as powerful as Sun Shi and not as arrogant as him."
Gu Wuji didn't expect the matter to be brought to his head at all, and quickly said: "Others are just like this, and they have nothing to do with me, everyone, let's go in."
Seeing that he failed to provoke the relationship between Gu Wuji and Rong Qingman, the middle-aged man couldn't help but change his expression slightly. , there must be a grudge in my heart.
Although the house has been abandoned, it is still energized, as long as the switch is turned on, the light turns on. The layout inside is very strange. After a few people entered the door, they faced a wall with a huge painting hanging on it, and there were even blood-red lights around.
This painting is very strange, it is a woman without a face, and the house has been abandoned for a long time and it is extremely gloomy.
Even these few players had to take a deep breath at this time.
"What kind of taste does the owner have." "It almost scared me to death."
Looking at the scene in front of him, Gu Wuji felt relieved.
This villa is obviously completely different from Jin Yu's home. It seems that the boss he is going to face is not that Jin Yu. Although Gu Wuji didn't dare, but that Jin Yu was really a tricky man who was difficult to deal with, it would be best if he didn't meet.
"But if things go bad to a certain extent, maybe this villa is also a painting of Jin Yu... Then things will be troublesome."
Gu Wuji was glad that he brought a lot of matches in this time, and he could use it however he wanted.
As for Rong Qingman, who was at the advanced gate, he was standing in front of the portrait quietly looking at something, and his expression was still very dignified.
"The rest of this portrait is very delicately painted, and it's clear that the blank space was deliberately set aside." Gu Wuji also stepped forward to look at it and said, "Maybe the author of this portrait wants to express something. ."
Speaking of which, Gu Wuji worked hard for several days to draw for this copy. But he obviously doesn't have the talent in this area, and he doesn't have any particularly strong artistic cells, so he doesn't understand those art paintings at all...
Cheng Jia couldn't help but sigh after knowing it, maybe this is because no one is perfect. If Master Gu, who is good-looking and strong, has artistic talent, how can a person like him have the face to live in the world!
"What do you know?" Rong Qingman didn't look at it without thinking, but said coldly, "The owner of this portrait is not to express anything. It's that the person he wanted to paint hasn't appeared yet, maybe, There's the one he's looking for among us."
Others were horrified when they heard what he said. What is the person who the owner of the portrait is looking for? If it's like what he said, it can't be an ordinary painting after finding someone! Maybe the soul is bound in this painting.
Everyone immediately subconsciously moved away from the painting, for fear of an accident.
Rong Qingman sneered when he saw this, "Do you think others have such low demands?"
Everyone else couldn't hold back their anger. It was nothing to be ignored before, but it's too much to start mocking! But considering the opponent's strength and the terrifying degree of this dungeon, everyone still held back their anger.
Gu Wuji, who had personally experienced the tragic event that almost turned into a painting, did not show any fear, but only glanced at the portrait in front of him and muttered, "If you destroy this portrait, I don't know what's going to happen."
At this time, a capable woman named Sister Yan with a low ponytail in the crowd walked out immediately, with a somewhat anxious expression, "You can't do this. The prompt I purchased said, unless it is a special situation, I will not accept If the painting does destructive behavior, it will provoke the ghost of this copy, which is a very dangerous behavior."
Gu Wuji had just said it casually, of course he wouldn't do such a deadly act, but he didn't expect that there would be a kind-hearted person who would come up to persuade him, and he immediately thanked the other party.
Seeing this, Rong Qingman just showed an indifferent expression, and went directly into the interior of the villa from the corridor on the side.
Everyone didn't want to stay in this weird place, and they all walked over together.
What everyone didn't notice was that after they left, the content on the faceless portrait changed a bit, it seemed to have a little more traces, but nothing could be clearly seen.
------
Behind the wall, there is a corridor. After coming out, there is a hall in front of you, and at the end are the stairs leading to the second floor and the basement.
In this hall, except for the toilet that seems to be usable, everything else is very broken, there are debris everywhere, and there is a thick layer of dust on the seat sofa. There are several locked rooms next to it, don't know what they are for.
And all the windows that can see the outside world are nailed down with wooden boards, giving people a sense of oppression.
There is still a lot of graffiti on the wall, but it just looks uncomfortable, and it feels like it was drawn by some mentally abnormal people.
"Sword Comes"
"This place is really broken."
"The people who would come to this place to paint in the first place are simply mentally ill!"
Gu Wuji found a dusty flyer on the table next to it, which was once used to promote this studio. Below is a torn piece of paper with some notes on the house.
It seems that the owner of the house is a painter, and the place where the studio is located is the basement. Those who come to study can even live on the second floor and eat and drink on the first floor. But the only thing you can't go to is the third floor, the reason given here is that the third floor is the painter's private space.
"It seems that this studio was quite normal when it was still open. The photos on the flyers also look normal, not like they are now..." Gu Wuji looked around, "After all, it has been abandoned for a long time."
Gu Wuji's behavior attracted the attention of others, and everyone came to see what he found.
"In this way, there must be some secrets hidden on the third floor. Maybe those who went out of this studio before will die because of what the owner did." Sister Yan said thoughtfully.
"The reason why this place is ruined is probably because the people who went out are dead, so it can't go on. Even because of the so-called curse, no one is willing to take over this villa." The middle-aged man also pondered.
The person next to him with highlighted red hair is obviously his younger brother. Hearing this, he immediately showed excitement, "Big brother is right."
"Speaking of which, it says that there are eight students to be recruited, and we have eight people here..."
Gu Wuji's words were only half said—
"Have you said enough there?" Rong Qingman had already walked to the entrance of the basement, turned his head and said coldly, "Don't forget what the main quest is. If you don't trigger it in time, do you still want to wait until it's completely dark. Come to this studio again?"
Although the rest of the people felt that his attitude was really unpleasant, but what he said made sense, they immediately walked towards the location of the basement.
The middle-aged man seemed to be unintentionally speaking ill of Rong Qingman beside Gu Wuji, and he felt that Gu Wuji would definitely be unhappy because of this...
However, the real situation is that Gu Wuji has been looking around, not listening to the middle-aged man's words. Besides, even if he listened in, he probably wouldn't understand what the other party was implying.
As soon as the door of the basement was pushed open by Rong Qingman, a gloomy and cold air hit everyone. Fortunately, the lights inside are still on.
When they all entered the basement, they were stunned to see the scene in front of them.
This basement is completely different from the top, it doesn't look worn out at all, but it is as clean as new, as if someone has been using it for such a long time.
The most conspicuous inside is the eight drawing boards placed in the middle of the basement, and even snow-white canvases have been pasted on them, as if waiting for others to paint later.
When everyone saw the scene in front of them, they couldn't help but take a deep breath.
Combined with what they had inquired about before entering the dungeon, an idea had already emerged in everyone's mind.
[After you entered the basement, the coldness seemed to seep into the soles of your feet from the ground. This is the true face of the cursed studio, and you, those who enter the studio, are also cursed! You can't leave this room without cracking the owner's resentment. ]
[Main quest: Enter the studio to explore and complete. ]
[Trigger the new main quest: Before zero, draw a painting worth 100 yuan.
Note that drawing tools other than drawing paper are only available today, and players will need to explore all parts of the house by themselves after that.
Those who fail to complete the main quest will not be obliterated, but will be affected by the curse in this villa, resulting in some fatal crises. Those who find a way to survive can also continue to participate in the second day's mission. ]
Everyone was stunned for a while, do you really want them to paint? !
And listening to the system, they would have to find the painting tools or something by themselves. Even such a task has to be done once a day, and the value of the requested painting does not know how much it will increase!
Could it be that you really have to force yourself to be some kind of painting master to leave this copy? Is this copy actually so inspirational? It reminded them of their tragic college entrance examination.
But everyone also knows that those who once left this studio to become famous will all die shortly after, and it is absolutely impossible to just keep their heads down and paint.
What’s more surprising is that the system actually provides a chance for those who haven’t completed the main storyline. It is conceivable how difficult this task will be afterward.
No matter how they thought about it, the person who faced the villa's curse must have died that night!
"Fortunately, I bought painting skills earlier."
This is the idea that emerges in everyone's mind. At this time, it is completely no problem to rely on their painting level to reach the value of 100 yuan.
They took a deep breath and came to the easel. After picking the position, they quietly began to draw on the drawing paper.
Even if the requirement was only 100 yuan, everyone dared not slack off and showed their best level. After all, who knows if this dungeon will have any hidden rules, such as the ugliest person painted will be the first to die.
Although Gu Wuji had two props that could come in handy at this time, charcoal and brush, he wanted to try it out on the first day, so he just used the painting tools provided here to paint.
After the painting, everyone left the studio with mixed feelings. At this time, it was still a while before it got dark, so they immediately grouped into the villa and began to explore carefully.
The stairs leading to the third floor were sealed, and as long as you put your hand on it, you will feel the feeling of being stared at by cold eyes. No one dares to open it directly.
As for the second floor, there are four rooms for people who come to paint to rest. Each room has a bunk bed, and there is a washroom at the end of the corridor, all of which can be used. Next to it is a utility room, and the door is also locked.
There were no problems with this exploration, and no one even hit the ghost. But no player was relieved because of this, but instead felt a sense of impending storm.
The most frightening thing might be the board hanging on the corridor on the second floor. It also said that the rule here is that you are not allowed to go out after ten o'clock, no matter what sound you hear.
Even if everyone doesn't know why, they don't dare to rashly violate the rules written here.
There are a lot of paintings hanging on the walls of the corridor, and students' works are written next to them.
The above content looks shocking. Many students who were only ordinary painting skills before have made great progress in a short period of time. Not only the painting skills, but also the content of the entire painting has been uplifted, it is simply reborn!
But this did not give everyone any inspirational feeling at all, but felt so strange that they dared not watch it again.
After all, this is no ordinary studio, but a place where you will die if you don't make progress.
Gu Wuji looked at it and felt that these people may not have been reborn, but achieved such progress in another way...
"Speaking of how to solve our food." One person couldn't help but said: "Although there are some compressed biscuits in the backpack, these biscuits will last up to three or four days. If you stay in this copy for more time..."
"Don't worry about this." Gu Wuji said: "If there is really no food for us, this dungeon should end within three days."
It is impossible to really starve players to death. Although many copies of the system are difficult, there is no way to make things difficult for players in this regard.
Only then did the man breathe a sigh of relief, and looked at Gu Wuji with grateful eyes.
Then it was divided into rooms. Among the group of people, a couple naturally lived in one room, and two women also lived together. The middle-aged man and his attendant were also in the same room... In the end, the rest was nothing to do. and Rong Qingman.
Facing the apologetic eyes of other people, it doesn't matter to Gu Wuji, it doesn't matter who he lives with.
Everyone took advantage of the hurried wash before midnight, and all entered the room to rest.
The room is not very big, except for the bunk and the bunk, there is only one cabinet and one desk. You can see that the window to the outside world is not blocked, but the scene seen from here is the outside world full of mist, which is even more disturbing, and wants to pull the curtains.
Rong Qingman walked to the bed and frowned, stretched out his hand to clean the dust on it, then sat down, looked at Gu Wuji coldly, "Do you think you have helped these people so much, what kind of gratitude do they have? ?"
Gu Wuji looked over in surprise and said, "Huh? Are you concerned about me?"
Although he is slow in other respects, at a time like this, he is so enigmatically sensitive that no one around him knows what to say.
"I just think your meddling is annoying. Of course, a good person like you is quite rare." Rong Qingman seemed to be too lazy to communicate with Gu Wuji, so he hurriedly went to bed and lay down.
"Oh, thank you for your reminder." Gu Wuji actually felt that this Rong Qingman was not someone who was difficult to get along with. Although his attitude was a bit bad, the other party was developing the main quest well, and he also carried on them from time to time. remind.
In short, the conclusion is that the quality of the players in this system is quite good.
"I'm not complimenting you!"
Gu Wuji also climbed to the second floor and fell asleep. As soon as he lay down, he fell asleep within a few breaths.
Rong Qingman, who was below, fell silent after discovering this. How can there be such a big-hearted person, and he is not afraid of what is wrong in this room, and he will not know when he dies! He was very angry for no reason.
-------
In a dark and dark place, a person stretched out his hand and was turning over a few paintings in front of him.
This hand can be said to be a very beautiful hand, but it is extremely pale, and it seems to emit a faint light in this dark night.
It was a painting that Gu Wuji and others drew in the basement today.
"There are no paintings that make people feel surprised at all. Except for this one..." The man shook his head, with a look of interest on his face again, "It really makes me wonder where these people can go in the future. "
The author has something to say: This copy will probably be very tragic (… the meaning of Shura Field)
