As Zheng Wanqing said, the three of them brought two unconscious people with them, which undoubtedly greatly increased the difficulty of their actions.
Fortunately, Guo Guo has already got his arms back, so the three of them can still make up two healthy limbs, two with no injuries, and two with strong mobility... through a long corridor and transferred to another In a safe room, the ghost's angry roar when it realized that it had lost its prey sounded from the other side of the wall.
"The question now is, how to wake him up?"
Although the illusion was over, Bai Zhi did not wake up immediately like Tang Xinjue, but was still in a coma.
The most difficult thing is that there are too many unknown factors here, and they can't bring people back to the ground rashly—what if they can't leave in a conscious state, and their consciousness will be detained here forever? What's more, the opponent is missing two arms.
During the brief repair time, Zheng Wanqing and Guo Guo simply made a simple construction roadmap on the clothes based on their exploration experience.
From the picture, it can be clearly seen that starting from the entrance of the underground shaft they came in, and going deeper, the corridors are like continuous spreading lines, making the space bigger and bigger, and then narrowing back slowly , and finally converge on the staircase at the end that cannot go down, but can only go up.
Tang Xinjue looked at these routes: "If we assume that it has two exits, one is the direction we came from, leading to the food court in the casino; the other is the stairs at the end of this floor, which may lead to the inside of the transformation community .”
Judging from their positions, they should be closer to the latter now.
"But Zhang You is still waiting for us in the food street, so we have to go back the same way when we leave."
Tang Xinjue drew a longer route.
"And to return, there is a high probability that you will have to face the human splicing monster."
Guo Guo took a breath: "Student Bai has the limbs it wants, and you have the head it wants, so aren't we equivalent to walking laser lights?"
This will undoubtedly directly increase the sense of presence in front of ghosts and monsters, and a tough battle is inevitable.
Before Tang Xinjue could answer, he suddenly heard two weak coughs. The room suddenly became quiet, and everyone looked at the same place:
On the ground, Bai Zhi's eyelashes fluttered twice, and he opened his eyes.
He opened his mouth, but there was no sound. At first, his eyes just looked at the outside world emptyly. After a few seconds, the focus of the pupils gradually recovered from laxity:
"Who are you?... I remembered."
The boy wanted to get up, but found that he had no arms, and his body lost his balance and fell down. His chin happened to hit several ID cards, and a bloodstain was drawn on the jaw line.
Seeing the name on the identity card, the blood on Bai Zhi's face seemed to have lost another layer, and the corners of his mouth were pursed into a tight straight line.
606: "..."
If this continued, they were all worried that Bai Zhi would vomit a mouthful of blood and faint again. Fortunately, the opponent's ability to accept the status quo is also very fast. Before being pulled up, he has found a fulcrum and sat up again.
His gaze swept across the room, and he paused for a moment on the unconscious Awan's face. Only then did Bai Zhi speak slowly: "You guys saved me."
Tang Xinjue: "You also helped me in the illusion."
Bai Zhi shook his head: "No, it's not equal. After we were trapped and fell in, Awan followed with the only purpose of killing weeds and roots, and would never let us go. On the other side, my two arms disappeared, indicating that I was hiding The place where I have been found has been discovered by the ghost that specializes in harvesting human bodies—but all of these combined, I am still alive now."
—And Awan was lying here. Needless to say who rescued people in the dangerous building.
He didn't spend too long on the same topic, but calmed down almost as if nothing had happened, and turned directly back to the present:
"You should be in a hurry too, is there anything I can do to help?"
"The truth." Tang Xinjue said.
What they want to know is what happened between A Wan and the previous batch of candidates, and more about the truth about this dungeon.
"Okay." Bai Zhi didn't hesitate at all. "But it may take you some time, I think we should move to a safer place first."
As the victim candidate who was trapped into this building earlier, Bai Zhi knew a little more about the environment here. When they returned to a place, 606 recognized at a glance that this was the place where Guo Guo was imprisoned in the first place, and where Tang Xinjue was tricked by the mirage.
Those are two downward stairs separated on both sides of the corridor intersection, and there is a narrow stairwell hidden under each staircase.
"Every ghost usually stays in its own room. This is the territory of the monster that can control illusions, and ghosts weaker than it will not come in." Bai Zhi explained.
In terms of individual ability alone, the mirage monster can be regarded as the most powerful ghost on this layer. If it wasn't for Li Xiaoyu and his party's plans, Zheng Wanqing and Zheng Wanqing wouldn't have found a chance to kill them.
Bai Zhi suddenly asked: "By the way, when and where did you finish off the illusion monster?"
After getting the answer, he looked relieved: "That's okay. You may not understand that this is equivalent to its [roosting point], the farther the death position is from the [roosting point], the slower the resurrection speed will be..."
"... Resurrection?"
606's expression changed when he caught this keyword.
Will the ghosts who died in this building be resurrected automatically
Bai Zhi smiled wryly: "Otherwise, why would so many candidates fail here... Of course, its resurrection feature is not only applicable to ghosts, even humans, as long as they don't care about the cost, they also have the chance to be resurrected."
He looked at the two staircases, the winding steps were hidden in the opaque darkness.
"... It's just that, at that time, everyone will no longer have the possibility to fight side by side."
Tang Xinjue realized something: "Here, the downward stairs don't lead to the University City, nor to the Changing Community, do they?"
Bai Zhi shook his head, and said cryptically, "You can't talk about it while you're in it."
On the basis of Zheng Wanqing and Guo Guo, he added the patterns of frequent patrolling ghosts. Several people quickly summed up the most suitable time to escape:
"Ten minutes later, there will be a spider monster crawling through this corridor. Immediately afterwards, the human splicing monster will come from the other end. It will choose a corridor at the head of the stairs to enter."
Tang Xinjue came to a conclusion: "As long as it doesn't go through the corridor leading to the underground well, it can set off when the distance between us is almost at its furthest."
Unless the ghosts can come back directly through the wall to catch people, it is impossible to catch up with them.
"But your arm..."
Guo Guo turned his gaze around Bai Zhikong's empty cuff hesitantly. It is uncertain whether a person can climb down the well without losing both arms.
"It doesn't matter, if you leave that gate, the abilities of all candidates will recover naturally." Bai Zhi said calmly, "I will find my own way then."
When reviewing his own experience in the ten-minute gap, Bai Zhi's tone was as calm as a third-person perspective, picking out information that was useful to several people as much as possible.
Basically the same as Tang Xinjue's previous deduction, Bai Zhi's dormitory also received the [Change Community Invitation Letter]. The only difference is that they didn't wait for a copy to open, but used it immediately.
"We got a message before, which reminded us that we were about to face the entrance exam, so we chose to enter the reward copy first."
It's just that they didn't expect that the transitional dungeon, which was used to accumulate strength, turned into a life-threatening pit full of murderous threats.
Bai Zhi: "Our initial landing point is in a place called Block 1. Before we figured out the situation of the dungeon, we met a few students who were seriously injured. They said that they were the last batch of candidates who came in."
Dorm 303 immediately started treating them, but these candidates were seriously injured, and only a handful of skinny bones remained in their bodies. Even if they used Bai Zhi's healing ability to hang their breath forcibly, their hearts couldn't bear the load.
In the end, only one survived.
A person he would never save if time could come back again.
Bai Zhi was silent for two seconds, and continued speaking in chronological order. Later, following Xiaowan's guidance, they went to the office and got their ID cards. After hearing the prompt from the casino, he went straight there, and the time was staggered with Tang Xinjue and his party.
It was from here that the sudden change in the situation began. At that time, Baizhi and the others had already noticed that the real situation of the dungeon was different from the propaganda, so they raised their vigilance to the highest level, and activated all the protective abilities and props as soon as they entered the casino.
Then it happened to block an attack.
The attack did not come from the casino or the residents of the dungeon, but from the examinee A Wan who had just been "rescued".
Bai Zhi: "She has a special ability called [Deception]."
This ability is tricky because when it's cast, the target doesn't know they're being attacked.
—But more precisely, there is a protective item in their dormitory called [University City Anti-Fraud Center].
Bai Zhi felt a little regretful: "It's a prop displayed in the form of an app. Unfortunately, I don't have hands and can't open the phone. Otherwise, you only need to go back to the case and you can see the specific information."
In short, Awan has traveled too much this night and encountered ghosts, and he did not expect the attack to be discovered so quickly. After she was astonished, she immediately turned her head and ran away. The four of them chased and shot, and were led into an unfamiliar alley.
Seeing that he could catch people soon, but he didn't know what A Wan had done, a group of ghosts were suddenly summoned in the alley, and Bai Zhi and his party were surrounded.
Hearing this, Guo Guo suddenly opened his eyes wide:
"She can summon ghosts? Isn't she a candidate?"
Bai Zhi: "We didn't think about this clearly at the time."
But what is even more puzzling is that the candidate who obviously has no opposing position, what is the reason that makes Awan want to kill him by any means
It wasn't until the phantom monsters also emerged from the summons that the reason was finally revealed to them.
