"Is it a matter of saving people or not?"
"..."
Victoria didn't answer.
"Big sister, just listen to me and just believe in him!!"
Xia Wen patted the other party's shoulder with an old-fashioned attitude, and Xia Wen's words were serious and thoughtful.
"I know him very well, because no matter what, he will never let anyone who believes in him down. In addition, there is the most important point you must keep in mind."
"… What?"
Victoria turned her head in confusion, but didn't expect the other party to suddenly grab her shoulders with both hands, and then moved her face closer with a deep and mysterious expression, and spoke in a faint tone.
"You have to remember, you must never speak ill of that guy behind his back, because that guy is very vindictive. I used to have..."
Before Xia Wen finished her sentence, a plastic bottle was thrown over and hit her head accurately. At the same time, someone's voice also sounded faintly.
"Are you kidding me? I never hold grudges. You are slandering me."
The moon reflects the snow and the clouds disperse: "..."
… … … … … … … … … …
"Based on what you said, there is a high probability that Joshua is in serious danger... What do you think?"
Frowning slightly, Bai Zhi asked Rohard and Smith in front of him.
"The shotgun probably can't hurt the monster. The most important thing is that the opponent is invisible. Judging from what Claude encountered before, the monster may have sneaked into this villa..."
"If you come just in time, then kill him!!"
Reaching out and pulling the gun bolt, Rohard showed a ferocious smile on his face.
"I'm going to cut off that piece of shit's ass and stuff it into the other person's mouth!! That piece of shit!!"
"Incompetent rage is of no use. We need to make some preparations now."
Bai Zhi narrowed his eyes slightly and spoke.
"You have also seen before that the monster showed its footprints in the snow, so we need to cover the entire floor of the villa with flour. This will at least prevent the other party from approaching us silently."
"Flour... there are several bags in the kitchen on the first floor, all of which are fine flour."
After thinking for a moment, Smith handed the shotgun to Abel again and raised his hand.
—He was mainly responsible for collecting the items used for the party in the villa before.
"But the monster may have entered the villa, maybe it's on the first floor now... I need Abel to accompany me there."
"..."
After re-adjusting the shotgun in his hand, Setsuna nodded expressionlessly when facing the gazes of several other people.
Volume 1 The Gap between Virtual and Real: Chapter 566 Chapter 558 [Monster] (4k)
Soldiers are valuable and quick.
Those who could choose to stand here at this time were not procrastinators. After deciding on the next action plan, Smith and Abel set off to the first floor.
Since the so-called escape has been determined to be impossible, it is better to fight the so-called monster with real swords and guns.
However, the two of them had just walked to the door, and before they even opened the door, a scream full of terror suddenly came from the basement.
"Over there in the basement... How is this possible!?"
After being stunned for a moment, Victoria's expression suddenly changed. Without thinking, she rushed out of the room before Smith and Abel and went to the hidden entrance to the basement on the first floor.
The entrance to the basement of the villa is quite hidden. Only Xiuka knows where the entrance and exit is. Others only know that there is a basement in the villa, but they don't know where the entrance is.
Mike and his girlfriend were the most timid of the group. They had neither the determination to escape nor the determination to confront the monster head-on.
In the villa, only the basement is the safest, so before that, Mike, his girlfriend and Victoria hid in it.
When leaving the basement before, in order to prevent accidents there, Yeyue secretly left protective props there. They were not high-end goods, but they should be able to ensure the safety of their basement.
... But judging from the previous screams, it was clear that the one in the basement was attacked first.
When she hurriedly followed the secret stairs to the basement door, she found that the door was tightly closed, and there were horrifying screams mixed with men's and women's voices coming from inside.
Gritting her teeth, she didn't care about anything at the moment and kicked directly towards the closed door in front of her.
But what she didn't expect was that her power was like a mud cow entering the sea, unable to make any waves on the door... But she clearly used her full strength! !
While she was dazed, the other people finally arrived. Under the illumination of the strong flashlight and the increasingly weak calls for help and screams coming from the room, Rohard roared and moved. He rushed to the door with an ax and slashed at the door without hesitation.
How could a fragile wooden door withstand the chop of an axe? What's more, Rohad's strength was second only to Abel. After several slashes, a big hole was quickly opened at the door.
—And coincidentally at this moment, the sound coming from inside stopped abruptly.
When everyone finally opened the locked door and entered the basement, Mike and his girlfriend were no longer in the basement, leaving only blood on the floor and a picture smeared with blood on the wall. Drawn, the same strange smile that the dead Bob wore on his face...a weird smile.
The smiles on the wall were like a challenge to them... and a silent taunt.
So far, only six of the original 12 people remain.
Rohard, Smith, Shouka, Aine, Abel, and Victoria.
After the incident in the basement, everyone's mood inevitably became dull.
Luo Hande and Smith brought all the flour up from the first floor, and then sprinkled it evenly and flatly on the ground. Then, those holding guns held guns, and those holding axes held axes. They stood guard with dull expressions. Got here.
From the beginning to now, a total of six of them have died, but those of them who are still alive have never even seen the true face of the monster.
As for the four players who exist in this story... Setsuna always had an expressionless face, while Bai Zhi always acted as if he hadn't woken up. Xia Wen began to secretly hide the wine. , while the night moon reflects the snow and the clouds disperse, he is sitting quietly alone thinking about something.
She tried to gather together all the clues that had appeared in this story so far, but in the end, her efforts turned out to be a mess.
Strictly speaking, there were several doubts in this story, but she couldn't figure out any of them.
From the strange smile on Bob's face who died in a strange way, to the corpse that appeared and disappeared many times, to the car that was obviously bombed but later got up and back and forth many times, to the car in the basement. The loss of the edge, the exhaustion of my own strength when it was bounced off the door...
It seemed that there was a vague thread connecting those things one by one, but after thinking about it for a long time, she couldn't figure out what the thread was.
Invisible monsters, strange supernatural powers, cat-and-mouse games... What is it that connects these things together
And while she was racking her brains and thinking about these things alone, Rohard's angry roar suddenly came from the window.
Suddenly shocked, her gradually forming train of thought was interrupted. Victoria quickly stood up and came to the window, looking at Rohard's angry gaze.
In front of the manor of this mountain villa, a corpse was slowly hung up. Although they could not see the whole body clearly due to the heavy snow and weather, Rohard could recognize it at a glance based on its appearance. Out there was the missing Bob's body.
Then, another corpse was slowly hung up. This time judging by the size and appearance of the clothes, it was Eric, followed by Joshua, Claude, Mike... and his. Girlfriend Mary.
—The bodies of the six people were hung up one by one outside the villa.
Even though they were unable to make more detailed confirmations due to the heavy wind and snow and the distance, their body shape and clothes were enough for them to recognize those people.
"... This is the monster's deliberate provocation against us. Don't fall into the trap."
His deep eyes gradually narrowed, and Bai Zhi moved his gaze back from there.
"I know."
Closing his eyes, Rohard took several deep breaths, and then he was able to suppress the anger welling up in his heart.
"That damn bastard..."
And then at this moment... darkness struck.
The entire villa's power supply tripped in an instant.
However, since Bai Zhi had already made a special filing in this regard, everyone did not intend to panic. Instead, they turned on the surrounding bright flashlights as soon as possible and quickly ignited Bai Zhi. Stop the torch you made before.
The darkness disappeared for just a few seconds, and after that, the light once again enveloped the room.
Just in the few seconds when the darkness disappeared, the door that was originally closed was quietly opened without knowing when.
When he saw the opened door, in an instant, several bright flashlights shone through.
—In the flour piled on the ground by the door, there are no traces of being trampled on.
"No problem. Although the monster is invisible, it still leaves traces when walking in the snow. The flour sprinkled on a large area around the door is not strange, which means that the monster has not entered. Come into the room."
After breathing a slight sigh of relief, Rohard spoke loudly.
"If that piece of shit like a bastard dares to appear in front of me, I will blow its head off with the gun in my hand!!"
"No, that's not right..."
Staring blankly at the flat flour without any traces on the other side of the door, Yue Ye felt as if she had vaguely grasped the context of something, but she couldn't tell what it was.
Since there is nothing strange about the sprinkled flour, then the monster should not have come in. After all, it has left traces in the snow before... But why do I always feel uneasy
It's like something unsettling has sneaked into this room quietly... Traces left in the snow... Traces... Palm prints... Wait, palm prints!
Suddenly realizing something, Yue Ye felt as if her heartbeat stopped for a beat.
The monster was walking upside down, so it left palm prints along the way in the snow. It was outdoors before, but now it is indoors... So where are the other party's feet
The other party is simply walking on the ceiling now! ! There's no point spreading flour over the door! ! !
Unfortunately, when she finally figured this out, it was too late.
A strange black shadow walking on the ceiling has quietly arrived... on Rohad's head.
When the strange black figure came into contact with Rohard, who was paying close attention to the door, he experienced the same experience that Claude had experienced before.
Along with a strange stimulation like an electric shock, his body began to become numb, his senses also became dull, and his consciousness also became blurred...
With a soft snapping sound, the shotgun held by Rohard fell to the ground weakly, and he himself was grabbed tightly by seven or eight hands reaching out from the darkness at the same time and pulled up to the ceiling. , when everyone finally reacted and focused their attention here, they happened to see Rohard's huge body being grabbed up to the ceiling and then suddenly disappearing.
—Just like Claude who disappeared silently in the snow before.
"Boom!! Boom!! Boom!!"
He immediately raised the shotgun in his hand and fired three shots at the twisted dark creature curled up on the ceiling without blinking.
But the effect of the shotgun bullets only slightly delayed the speed of the monster.
A moment later, Smith stepped onto the backstage of Rohard and was caught and disappeared. However, unlike Rohard who was dragged up to the ceiling and disappeared, he was dragged into the floor and disappeared.
But before that, because he was prepared, Smith vigorously wielded the ax in his hand and chopped off one of the monster's hands... But the moment the monster came into contact with him, he completely lost all resistance. ability.
All their resistance was like a joke in the face of this unknown and inexplicable monster.
-The third target that the monster chose to attack was Bai Zhi, who was standing there with his hand slightly pressing his forehead and his eyes half-closed.
Although Bai Zhi never made any decent plans or arrangements from beginning to end, Xia Wen still maintained all his confidence in someone. After seeing this scene, he rushed out without hesitation. "Heroes save beauties."
So soon, Xia Wen followed in the footsteps of Rohard and Smith.
After losing three people one after another, the remaining three finally escaped from the room in a somewhat embarrassed state, and all the way downstairs escaped into the heavy snow.
Fortunately, the monster had no intention of chasing him for the time being.
"The monster itself can be hurt, but be careful not to be touched by the opponent, otherwise it will lose its ability to resist. Sharp weapons such as axes and machetes will do more damage to the opponent."
In the backyard, where there was an empty plain filled with snow, Bai Zhi threw the ax in his hand to Yeyue who was in silence, and Bai Zhi spoke with a solemn expression.
"You should have told me those things earlier, for example, about the palm print that accompanied Claude all the way. Otherwise, I would not have been stupid enough to choose the battle location indoors... in an open and crowded place. Outdoors covered with snow is the best place to fight the opponent."
"...Is that enough?"
Subconsciously clenching her fists, Yeyue whispered in her mouth.
"What is enough and not enough?"
Bai Zhi frowned, with a hint of displeasure in his words.
"That monster is coming soon, so hurry up and prepare to fight."
"Ming Mingxia... my girlfriend died trying to save me, but you didn't react at all... "
Victoria raised her head and looked in the direction of Xiuka and the expressionless Abel, word by word.
"Actually, you are the monsters, right?"
… … … … … … … … … …
"Ah, I was indeed hung up... But this thing..."
Slightly tangled, he lowered his head and looked at the rope that looked like it was tied around his neck. In fact, all the stress points were on his back. The expression on Xia Wen's face looked very strange for a while.
With this method of tying the rope, let alone hanging her to death, she could still perform a fish-out-of-water performance for others...
