Tang Ning's brain went blank for two seconds.
During these two seconds of dead silence, that thing did not move.
This multiple copy training allowed Tang Ning to hold a candle in one hand and frantically take out a bunch of things from the space ring with the other hand.
Many of these things were props from the Eastern system. Tang Ning did not use them at first because he was worried that Eastern props could not defeat Western monsters. But now Tang Ning could not care about anything else. Just when his other hand was about to be unable to hold so many props, Tang Ning suddenly found something unusual.
His face was pale, and he bravely walked a little closer, only to find that the pale figure was just a plaster sculpture.
The sculpture is of a well-built man holding a removable shield.
Tang Ning couldn't stand the excitement of such ups and downs. He felt his hands were a little weak. Tang Ning held up the candle and looked around the other corners of the room, but found nothing.
But when he walked, Tang Ning always felt that something was watching him.
Is it on top
Tang Ning raised his head. He held up the candle and shone it upwards. The only shadow on the ceiling was Tang Ning's.
Maybe he was just overthinking it.
Tang Ning walked out holding a candle. The feeling of being watched from behind never left. He could not help but turn around and look at the sculpture in the room.
This sculpture must be the work of a master. Both the lines of the body and the expressions on the faces are extremely vivid.
Alive in the dim light, it seemed to give Tang Ning a strange smile.
Tang Ning held his breath and stared at the sculpture as he slowly backed away. By the time he reached the check-out door, cold sweat had already crept up his back.
The sculpture remained quietly in its original position, as if all this was just Tang Ning's illusion.
"What's going on?" asked the teammates outside the room. Just now, when Tang Ning was choosing a room by herself, she behaved very strangely, as if she was possessed for a moment. Her face was pale, her eyes were evasive, and her steps were disorderly. Now that she had entered the room, she had not made any movement for a long time. Everyone was worried about Tang Ning's behavior.
Tangning walked within the visible range of the sculpture and looked at his teammates one by one. He felt his tension ease a little. "There is a sculpture holding a shield."
"Holding a shield?" Si Tai suddenly repeated, he seemed very interested in this shield.
Tangning nodded, "I saw the statue glanced at me. I don't know if it was my imagination."
Si Tai hesitated for a moment, then he also took down a wall lamp and slowly walked towards Tang Ning. When the two of them were very close, Si Tai carefully walked around Tang Ning and walked into the house holding a candle.
Tang Ning stood outside the house, somewhat curious about what Si Tai was going to do.
He watched Stein walk towards the sculpture holding a candle, then he squatted down extremely cautiously and drew a circle around the sculpture on the dusty ground with his finger.
Then Stein carefully took the shield from the sculpture's hand.
After doing all this, Si Tai looked a little more relaxed, and he walked over with a shield.
Tang Ning stared at the shield in Si Tai's hand with a thoughtful look. Did Si Tai draw some special skill card like him? Just like he needed a mirror, Si Tai needed a shield to act as a medium.
If this is the case, then Steiner's skill card should be defensive. Can it be used to resist attacks from ghosts and monsters
Tang Ning was not the only one who had such a guess. Many other players also noticed something.
Si Tai is a very new rookie. He entered the A-level dungeon only because of a team formed by a bunch of big guys. It is reasonable for him to draw the special skill card.
In this copy, there is another newcomer, Li Haoyuan. Did he also draw a special card
Tang Ning looked at Li Haoyuan. He remembered that when Kristen proposed to vote on whether to open the room to look for the mirror, both Stein and Li Haoyuan raised their hands in favor without hesitation. At that time, Tang Ning thought that these two newcomers were supporting him.
Now it seems that maybe all members or some players have drawn the special skill card in this copy, but in any case it should be more than just Tang Ning and Si Tai.
"Opening a room can get props?" Zhou Kang looked at the shield in Si Tai's hand. "If that's the case, I doubt the NPCs in the castle will tell us which room the real props are in."
Jiang Mianmian came to the open door and said, "I don't see any danger from this room. Maybe we can rest in this room tonight."
"There is a question. Is it unsafe for all of us to be in one small room? When we fall asleep, we are the most relaxed. The contaminated person may take the opportunity to contaminate us." Zhou Kang said: "It would be best if we open seven rooms."
Lin Yun frowned: "But it's hard for us to open seven safe rooms."
While everyone was discussing, Si Tai came to Tang Ning's side. He carefully led Tang Ning to a place away from everyone else, then whispered in Tang Ning's ear, "Dad, the skill I drew in this game is to protect a person from pollution at night. Even if I die or I get polluted that night, my protection will last for the whole night."
This skill requires Si Tai to find a special shield. At the beginning, Si Tai guessed that the shield could be hidden in one of the hundreds of rooms, but he was not sure to open the door. He never expected that Tang Ning would directly open the shield.
After Tang Ning discovered this shield, Si Tai chose to believe Tang Ning.
Since Tang Ning was a contaminated person, he could easily hide the shield in the space ring. Si Tai knew that Tang Ning had this space prop, but Tang Ning did not do so.
"Its disadvantage is that it cannot protect the same person for two consecutive nights, but I can protect you tonight." Si Tai used all the skills of his card.
Tang Ning didn't expect that Si Tai's skill was not to protect himself, but to protect others.
If Si Tai was protecting her tonight, Tang Ning's safety factor would be greatly improved.
The selfish but safer approach is for Tang Ning and Si Tai to stay in this room for one night. The next day, Tang Ning will use the power of this body priest to open a new room. If it can be a room with a mirror, that would be the best. In this way, Tang Ning can give one room to Si Tai and another room to himself, and find a way to spend the two nights safely.
After three days, he will use the mirror to test Si Tai's identity. If Si Tai is not contaminated, he can spend three days safely under Si Tai's protection.
As long as Si Tai doesn't die, Tang Ning can rest assured during the seven-day copy.
The others looked at Tang Ning Sitai who was whispering in the corner. The monk asked Tang Ning, "Tang Ning, how did you choose this room just now?"
Tang Ning said: "It should be the priest power of this body of mine, but I can't use it a second time in a short period of time."
Upon hearing this, the monk took out a string of Buddhist beads from his bosom, and kept muttering something in a low and mysterious voice. Under the gaze of everyone, the monk walked to a door, put down the Buddhist beads, pushed open the door, and walked in with a firm look in his eyes.
Perhaps because the monk's behavior had always been normal, both Kerstin and Zhou Kang followed him. However, they did not follow the monk into the room, but stood at the door and watched.
Tang Ning noticed that the monk did not take down the wall lamp, and it seemed that the darkness had little effect on him. However, if this was the case, the teammates who were watching would probably not be able to see what was happening in the room.
The room was silent.
After about two minutes, the monk came over and said to the others, "I will live in this room alone tonight."
He found this room himself and no one had any objections.
"What's in the room you booked?" Tang Ning asked curiously.
The monk clasped his hands together and said, "Nothing."
When it comes to this answer, everyone has different expressions. Some people believe it, and some people don't.
Jiang Mianmian also took action. She put on her glasses and began to look at each room one by one. This time, Jiang Mianmian looked particularly hard.
It was said that when Tang Ning wanted to open the door before, Jiang Mianmian used only 70% to 80% of her strength to help her check the door, but now Jiang Mianmian used 120% of her strength.
Her eyes became bloodshot as she looked at a door.
When she looked at the two doors, the scarlet color filled the entire white of her right eye. The glaring red blood looked like blood wrapped around agate. She suddenly closed her eyes, and thick blood flowed from her right eye.
Jiang Mianmian's whole body trembled slightly due to the pain. After losing an eye, she pushed open the door in front of her.
It seems that Jiang Mianmian could have helped Tang Ning to select the rooms at the beginning, but she did not do so.
Tang Ning walked near Jiang Mianmian. He watched Jiang Mianmian open her red left eye, take down a wall lamp, and walk into the room alone.
Tang Ning stood at the door and watched. He saw Jiang Mianmian holding a gun in one hand and using a candle in the other to illuminate every corner of the room. It was an empty room with nothing in it.
Jiang Mianmian walked through the door holding a candle. She looked at Tangning for a moment, "I'm only checking to see if there are any serious dangers in this room. I'm not checking to see if there are any special props in this room. And it would be very exhausting for me to check once..."
"I know." Tangning said.
Tang Ning did not blame Jiang Mianmian. Not to mention that this method was very exhausting for Jiang Mianmian, nor did he mention that at that time Jiang Mianmian was not sure whether Tang Ning was contaminated or not. Even if Jiang Mianmian knew for sure that Tang Ning was not contaminated, Tang Ning estimated that Jiang Mianmian would not help him find a prop at the cost of being seriously injured.
Because he was only a teammate that Jiang Mianmian had worked with twice, not Bai Wuliang.
Like that monk, he didn't even come to Tang Ning to explain anything.
Tangning took out a medical bandage from his space ring and handed it to Jiang Mianmian. Jiang Mianmian was stunned for a moment. She took the healing item from Tangning and showed an apologetic expression on her face which was half covered in blood.
After seeing Jiang Mianmian's attempts, Li Haoyuan searched for a while and suddenly let out a low growl.
With this sudden roar, Li Haoyuan's face was covered with dense hair, his dark pupils turned dark green at this moment, his teeth turned into sharp fangs, and sticky saliva dripped from his mouth. Li Haoyuan suddenly turned into a horrible monster!
"Don't do it!" Tangning saw Zhou's teammates were all on high alert, so he said hurriedly, "Li Haoyuan must be a werewolf."
After exchanging his werewolf bloodline in reality, Tang Ning watched Li Haoyuan's transformation process.
"I want to see if my intuition will be stronger in this form." Li Haoyuan said, his voice becoming much hoarser after turning into a werewolf.
"How do you feel now?" Tangning asked.
Li Haoyuan said uncertainly: "It's a bit stronger, but I still can't judge accurately, but I want to give it a try."
Three empty rooms have been opened now. The monk occupies one alone, and Jiang Mianmian also seems to want to occupy one. Although Tang Ning has not expressed his opinion, it is not possible for the remaining six people to all squeeze into the room opened by Tang Ning.
Li Haoyuan decided to give it a try.
The werewolf form could not be maintained for long. Li Haoyuan seized the precious opportunity to experience it. He quickly selected a door. A hint of ferocity flashed in his dark green eyes. Li Haoyuan let out a wolf howl as if to give himself courage, and then he rushed directly into the room.
The werewolf's night vision meant he didn't need any lighting, but Tang Ning, who was standing at the door, couldn't see anything.
He heard the powerful "roar" pause for a moment when it rushed into the room, as if Li Haoyuan encountered something. Then, the whole room was filled with Li Haoyuan's roar and the sound of Li Haoyuan running in the room.
Tang Ning's heart beat rapidly.
Not only did Tang Ning's expression change slightly, but the other players also looked towards the room that Li Haoyuan entered.
What happened here? Did Li Haoyuan encounter a monster
Tang Ning no longer stood in front of the door. He slowly took a few steps back, creating a safe distance between the two rooms.
Under everyone's vigilant gaze, the movement in the room suddenly stopped.
Tang Ning had already retreated to the side of the other teammates.
He listened to the footsteps coming from the room again. The steps were not as fast and powerful as when Li Haoyuan first rushed into the room. Instead, they were a bit slow.
A bloody hand reached out from the darkness.
Tang Ning held his breath.
He saw the hand tightly grasping the door, and the next moment, Li Haoyuan with blood on the corner of his lips stuck his head out. At this moment, Li Haoyuan had lost his wolf state. His face was pale and his eyes were filled with fear that had not yet faded.
He walked out of the room holding the door and quickly closed it.
At this moment, Li Haoyuan's teammates kept a distance of two meters, which was exactly the distance that the other teammates kept when Tang Ning just walked out of the room.
"What's wrong with the noodles?" Tang Ning asked Li Haoyuan.
Li Haoyuan said with some fear: "There was a monster like a vengeful spirit in front of me. Fortunately, I ran into it in wolf form. After I fought it once, it ran towards the door. It seemed to have encountered a ghost wall, but fortunately I ran away."
is that so
Tang Ning didn't know whether to believe Li Haoyuan's words.
However, Li Haoyuan's current experience has verified everyone's previous speculation. These rooms not only have props, but also scary ghosts.
Li Haoyuan's intuition was very accurate in ordinary dungeons. After he transformed into a werewolf, he had already strengthened his beast-like intuition. However, in this A-level dungeon, his intuition was still not strong enough.
Tangning thought about how Jiang Mianmian had lost an eye when he opened the door before, and the fact that he had just opened the door just now had actually only weakened his body a little. He could endure this kind of weakness once a day, which meant that he had at least seven chances to open the door safely in this dungeon...
Isn’t this golden finger too powerful
Tang Ning suddenly realized this. Without the comparison with his teammates, he couldn't intuitively feel the power of this force. Now, seeing the price paid by Jiang Mianmian and Li Haoyuan, he suspected that the power of this priest had seriously affected the fairness of the game.
Unless, at this moment, he who possesses this golden finger is facing a greater danger than others...
But apart from him, the monk seemed to have an easy time opening the door.
Tang Ning looked at the monk, who was holding Buddhist beads and turning them calmly.
"Does anyone else want to try to open the door?" Jiang Mianmian asked.
Before, there might have been players who wanted to try their luck to open the door, but now after seeing Li Haoyuan's miserable condition, no one took action for a while.
Tang Ning wanted to take healing items from the space ring for Li Haoyuan, but when he was looking for the items, he suddenly thought of something.
The pen of the Pen Fairy.
Although Tang Ning had never played the game of Pen Fairy, he had watched many movies about Pen Fairy and knew that he could ask the Pen Fairy the answers to some questions.
In this case, can he go and ask which room the Pen Fairy mirror is in
Tang Ning took out this seemingly ordinary pen from his space ring.
Everyone looked at Tangning, and she explained softly, "This is a prop I had before. I couldn't bear it not to work. It's the Pen Fairy's pen."
If you want to play the pen fairy game, you need a piece of paper in addition to a pen.
Tang Ning had no paper with him, so he simply squatted on the ground and used the clothes on his body, which looked to be made of very good material, as blank paper.
His teammates surrounded Tangning. Tangning took off the cap of this ordinary-looking pen. He recalled how to play with the Pen Fairy. Tangning held the pen in his right hand, with the tip of the pen vertically on his clothes. He began to chant the spell to summon the Pen Fairy, "Pen Fairy, Pen Fairy, I am your present life. If you want to continue your relationship with me, please draw a circle on the paper."
After he finished speaking, Tangning remained quiet. He could hear himself trying to maintain a slow breathing sound.
Everyone in the corridor remained silent.
Wall lamps burned in the darkness, casting shadows on the long wall.
Maybe it was ten seconds, maybe half a minute. When Tang Ning's hands felt a little sore, a light not far away suddenly went out.
Then there were two, three!
In the absence of the Yinfeng wind, the lights on both sides of Tang Ning kept going out from far to near. As the light continued to dim, the onlookers began to move away from Tang Ning who was holding the pen, because there was almost no light where Tang Ning was!
In card games, darkness means danger.
Tang Ning listened to the footsteps of his teammates retreating. His Adam's apple rolled, but he still tried to stay calm because there was a rule that Tang Ning knew very well: once the Pen Fairy game started, it could not be stopped at will.
The next moment, the long eyelashes suddenly opened.
Tangning saw that only the light above his head was on, but that was not the point. He felt...
A cold force covered his right hand.
And on the wall illuminated by the wall lamp, two figures were reflected.
Tang Ning's heartbeat suddenly skipped a beat and he blinked rapidly. The candlelight flickered and only Tang Ning's shadow was left on the wall. It seemed that everything that happened just now was just Tang Ning's illusion.
But he knew it was not an illusion, because his palms were extremely cold, the coldness penetrated through the skin and flesh into the bone marrow, extending from his palms all the way up Tang Ning's arm.
The pen fairy is here.
Tang Ning saw his hand moving uncontrollably, and the tip of the pen traced a circle on the shimmering silk.
Tang Ning's legs began to tremble slightly.
This was not out of fear, but because... Through a thin layer of cloth, Tangning's delicate skin was able to clearly feel the force of the cold pen tip flowing across his skin.
Even a normal person would be unable to help but avoid being touched by an unfamiliar force on the thigh. In her delicate and weak state, Tang Ning's senses were even more acute.
His face turned red almost instantly.
If it weren't for the cold force holding his hand, Tang Ning would have let go and dropped the pen.
After slowly drawing a circle, the pen finally left the clothes, making Tang Ning breathe a sigh of relief.
The next step is to ask questions.
Tangning tried to ignore the strange feeling on his leg. He whispered, "Pen Fairy, Pen Fairy, do you know which room has a mirror?"
This was the answer to the question Tang Ning wanted to know the most. However, after he asked the question, the pen in his hand fell on Tang Ning's thigh through the cloth, but he did not give an answer immediately. Instead, he drew meaningless lines on Tang Ning's leg as if in a daze.
What is going on
Electric-like shivers danced through his legs.
Tangning couldn't handle this kind of stimulation. His thick eyelashes trembled. He bit his lower lip tightly. At first, he tried to ignore the existence of the pen, but soon, he couldn't hold on any longer. He quickly asked, "If Master Guobixian doesn't know, can you skip this question?"
Tangning couldn't even finish a short sentence.
A drop of crystal sweat oozed out of the tip of his nose, and Tang Ning's slender fingers were stained with a light red. He was about to go crazy.
He wanted to throw away the pen, but the power of the pen was so strong that he could not escape from the torment.
Tears unconsciously filled Tangning's eyes, blurring everything she saw...
If Tang Ning could see things that ordinary people could not see at this moment, he would see a slender pale finger casually pressing the tip of the pen. He would look up along the hand of the artwork and see a young man in a black robe leaning down gracefully, looking down at Tang Ning, whose face was slightly flushed.
This mysterious young man in a black robe had the same face as Tang Ning, except that his hair was pale.
He held the tip of the pen and slowly drew circles on Tang Ning's legs.
With every turn, the blush on Tang Ning's face deepened a little, and this person who looked very similar to Tang Ning seemed to be appreciating some kind of work of art, carefully measuring every subtle change in Tang Ning's expression.
He looked at Tangning's nervous face, the corners of his lips curled up, revealing an interested yet evil expression.
When Tangning begged for mercy, he tilted his head, his pale hair drooped, and his bloodless lips curled up. Judging from his lip shape, he should be saying, "Okay."
