Adam led the chestnut-haired girl, walking tremblingly. Countless security personnel had confronted him, holding electric batons and yelling to pounce on him, but after just a few encounters, they were torn to pieces by the ghosts driven by the girl.
The once peaceful and quiet museum became a sea of blood. They walked through the sculpture exhibition hall, through the gallery of Impressionist and post-impressionist paintings, and finally found the tragic figure placed in a small room in the modern art exhibition hall. Scared beautiful girl No. 13.
"We're separated here," Adam said, trying not to bite his tongue out of fear.
The chestnut-haired girl nodded casually. She stared at the lighter on the ground, wondering what she was thinking.
At this moment, there was a sudden violent vibration from the entire museum. After a short period of silence, all the fire extinguishing devices on the ceiling also started to spray water!
Adam who got sprayed on the head: ...
"This is..." he wondered.
The loud noise made all the chasing and running people stop. Whether they were potential prisoners or guards, they all raised their heads in astonishment and looked towards the ceiling.
Lu Xiaotian, Zhao Jingtian and others who were originally in the battle also began to look around in confusion. Then, all the radios began to play the prelude of Christmas carols at the same time, the cheerful music, the classical museum, and the bloody battlefield. The scene is elegant and comical, just like a man wearing a haute couture dress who came to a Michelin three-star restaurant, adding a piece of Master Kong’s instant noodle cake bought from a supermarket to the seafood soup cooked by the chef himself...
"Beep—"
The ear-piercing sound of electricity resounded through the sky, and everyone covered their ears and squatted down. Then, a somewhat gloomy voice sounded: "... hello%... #..."
He seemed to be arguing with someone, his voice was indistinct. Hearing this voice, the non-existent white-collar man among the players shouted excitedly to the fat man: "It's Brother Lin's voice, Brother Lin has finally escaped from the clutches of those people!"
Fatty: "... I think those people were finally tortured to death by him."
"First use the fire extinguisher and vibration to stop everyone's movements, and then use music and alarm to announce your arrival. Such an arrogant action, such a grand appearance, is worthy of Lin Huai..." Zhao Jingtian looked at the camera, thinking coldly .
"Let's all be quiet." Lu Xiaotian signaled everyone, "Listen to what brother Lin has to say..."
At this moment, the originally murky voice finally became clear.
And they finally heard the second voice outside of Lin Huai.
"... This should be the broadcast button, Brother Chu..."
"I told you not to press any buttons if you don't understand what they are for..." Another helpless voice said.
Zhao Jingtian: ...
He had a rare feeling of "thinking too much".
"...Speaking of which, this main control room is really magical. There are buttons for controlling the central sprinkler system and arranging vibrations. What is this vibration button used for? Do you want to experience earthquakes? And how can I have so many red buttons? Wouldn't it be cute to know that red is... and not good at playing with machines—”
"That... I'm sorry to interrupt." A cold female voice sounded, Zhao Jingtian vaguely remembered that it seemed to come from the very popular potential prisoner named Eva, "The communication system seems to have been set up."
"..."
"In other words, everyone heard the conversation just now."
Lin Huai: ...
After a short period of silence, Lin Huai's voice sounded on the broadcast: "As you can see, everything you heard just now is a conspiracy edited by the upper echelons of the greenhouse to blackmail me. Please follow the stars rationally and don't believe in rumors. Ruo... tsk, forget it."
The voice paused, and then said: "Good evening, audience friends, I am Lin Huai, a trainee who has practiced for a week and a half, and I like to sing and dance... Sorry to cross the stage, this passage is aimed at everyone in the museum of."
"First of all, from now on, I declare that the museum has been occupied by me alone, and the dignitaries in the studio have also been surrounded by me. After five minutes, I will raise the protective cover of the museum, and from the protective cover From the moment it rises—the entire museum is my territory, and those who disobey me have only one end—that is—”
"Responsible for cleaning the toilet." Lin Huai said coldly, "After all, I don't want to spend the next three weeks in a messy environment..."
Everyone: ...
"Damn it, don't worry about this crazy person." The captain of the guard yelled into the walkie-talkie, and arranged for a dozen of the strongest people to follow him and run towards the main control room.
Due to the collapse of the surveillance video, he didn't know what happened in the studio, so he was very ignorant and fearless. The main control room was located on the highest floor of the museum. Along the way, they saw several unconscious security guards who fell to the ground or leaned against the wall.
"this is… "
The captain didn't think too much about it, after all, it was not difficult to attack a few security guards who were alone. They walked all the way outside the main control room, looked at each other, and took out their guns. The captain scanned his surroundings vigilantly, and nodded to the players around him.
The team members understood and took out the tools in their hands to open the door. In the process of their actions, the voice of the youth on the radio was still ringing unhurriedly: "... eighty-nine, eighty-eight, eighty-seven..."
It sounded like he was completely unaware of the arrival of the enemy outside the door. The captain licked his lips, he thought to himself, this is a good opportunity to catch a fish in the urn, get promoted and raise salary, marry a wealthy old man, and reach the pinnacle of life.
"Forty-nine, forty-eight..."
The door to the main control room was finally opened. The captain and his team rushed into the main control room, but to their surprise, in the empty main control room, only buttons and screens were on and off, but no one came.
"this… "
They glanced around, but only saw a tape recorder on the red swivel chair next to the microphone, and the young man's voice came out of the tape recorder: "Twenty-nine, twenty-eight, twenty-seven..."
"Fuck, we were cheated!" The captain spat hard, "Get out, he's not here..."
As he said that, he grabbed the tape recorder as if venting his anger, and smashed it hard on the ground, as if it was the number 81 who played them in the palm of his hand. However, after the tape recorder was smashed to the ground, he still persevered in distorting his voice and counted out the last two numbers: "Twelve, eleven..."
Then, the sound stopped abruptly.
"Go back to the hall on the first floor, and then..." the captain was speaking, but the lights in the entire main control room were dimmed.
Then, he heard a deep voice: "Ten."
That voice was very pleasant, but it made him fall into an ice cellar. They looked in the direction of the sound and saw a man in a red suit leaning against the door with his hands behind his back. In the gap between the drooping bangs, a pair of smiling eyes looked towards them.
"Nine."
A voice with the same tone as his sounded from the tape recorder: "First of all, congratulations on successfully reaching the main control room. As a reward, you saw me..."
"Eight."
"In the past 30 years of your life, you have regarded yourself as God, wantonly slaughtering and judging the lives of others. But now..."
"seven."
"You are already surrounded by me."
All the cells sent a warning to the brain at the same moment, but everyone present found that under the reflection of the red light, they couldn't even think of resisting. The captain opened his mouth wide, and kept his hands on the electric baton around his waist, but the young man just walked past him, counting numbers, and walked towards the control room.
"zero."
At the moment the countdown hit zero, he pressed the button that opened the shield. The light blue shield rises along the edge of the museum, enveloping the entire museum.
This is the highest level of protection. It was originally only used to protect the collections in museums that might be attacked during the war—but now it divides the inside and outside of the shield into two worlds.
"Okay, the countdown is over." Lin Huai clapped his hands, and the demon who ignored others finally looked at the security guards who surrounded him but dared not speak out loudly, "The door is over there, now, anyone who wants to Anyone who ran away? No?"
Obviously he was the one being surrounded, yet he said such brazen words. But what was even more frightening was that none of the people present felt... There was anything wrong with him saying that.
"Since no one wants to escape." He shrugged and showed a kind smile, "Then let's start now."
Five minutes later, Lin Huai came out of the main control room. He tore off the gloves from his fingers and threw them into the trash can next to him.
He then dragged a dozen unconscious security guards and locked them, one by one, into the stinking toilet.
Eva and Ailian had already been sent to the first floor by him. On the way to the main control room, he didn't even make a move—he gave all the fighting opportunities to these two weak-looking girls.
He smashed glass display cases containing exquisite weapons and threw the knives or guns inside to them. Then, very ungentlemanly, he allowed the two girls to fight with the security guards in the front, while he admired the art in the back. In his words: "Let me bully these security guards, isn't it just a full-level tuba playing a trumpet?"
Then, he threw them all to the first floor, asking them to find a way to organize the order in the venue, and asked them to bring their tokens to find Zhao Jingtian and Lu Xiaotian. Lu Xiaotian is his fanboy, and Zhao Jingtian is a second-year-old who is full of friendship, love and courage... Presumably with their help (deterrence by force), the order of the entire museum will be well restored.
Then... it was his own happy time.
After arriving at the main control room, he had already gone to the studio to snap his fingers once. Before snapping their fingers this time, all the greenhouse dignitaries still maintained their gentle and rational appearance. Although there was an undercurrent in the venue, it was still in good order on the surface. The curator and others did a great job of bewitching people's hearts and maintaining the current good order.
But after the first snap of the fingers... everything changed.
Before he stepped into the studio again, the strong smell of blood made him raise his eyebrows uncontrollably. A sense of "can also row boats" that belongs to the villain came to my heart.
"One, two... seventy-five... hey, you guys overfulfilled the task." Lin Huai raised his eyebrows.
Two inhuman corpses were placed in the center of the stage. Lin Huai could vaguely identify their identities by relying on their clothes: Dr. Lucier, the curator of the museum. The leader of the surviving audience trembled and said: "The culprit is already here, please..."
... Please, let us go.
But the young man in the middle of the stage just glanced at the two corpses lightly, and slightly hooked the corners of his mouth.
"Good job." He said succinctly, "Looking forward to your next performance, and..."
He holds up a finger.
"My next appearance will be in half an hour." He said, "Before that, please get ready."
After speaking, he bowed to everyone and left the studio, which cannot be described in detail.
A chuckle sounded in his ear, Lin Huai turned his head, and in the shadow of the corridor, he saw a young ghost in red.
Half of his face was covered by black wrinkles. Behind him, a girl with sunflowers on her hair clapped her hands. Pointing in the direction of the studio, she smiled and said, "You are really violent."
"... so-so, it's better than a big guy in women's clothing." Lin Huai said.
The girl hooked her mouth. Her figure suddenly melted like candy in the water, and the next thing that appeared was a young man wearing a black hood and a stud on his right ear: "You have seen all this? I thought I was disguised good… "
"Stop, stop." Lin Huai stretched out two fingers, "I just said straight to the point, what exactly are you looking for me for?"
"I thought we hadn't seen each other for a long time, and we could still greet each other." Xia Xingye smiled like a fox, "Yan Xi is here with you, is he doing well?"
"There's nothing to exchange pleasantries with people like you." Lin Huai interrupted him mercilessly, "As for Yan Xi or Xu Chi, you don't need to care... the one next to you was also caught by you from a certain world A ghost, right?"
"Why, seeing him being driven by me, do you have something to hurt him?" Xia Xingye asked the ghostly boy back to him, not taking it seriously.
"Seeing that the spell on his left face looks like a QR code, I'm just worried about your aesthetics."
Xia Xingye: ...
"First of all, congratulations, you have made the world look like this." Xia Xingye glanced at the mourning studio, and then walked along the railing to look at the crowd running below, "You are the first person I have ever seen ... a player with such a unique gameplay."
"You're being polite." Lin Huai said, "You are also the first big guy in women's clothing I've ever met."
With that said, he raised his leg and was about to leave, but Xia Xingye smiled behind his back: "Don't leave in such a hurry, do you want to know why I came here?"
"I don't want to know, and I don't want to know."
"...I came here to get something." Xia Xingye stared at his back, "A map."
"map?"
"...have you heard of 'doors'? To enter a door, you need thirty-two strings of codes, known as keys. For many people, the distribution of these codes is random, but the fact is that two years ago, Someone has already calculated the probability distribution model of all keys." Xia Xingye said, "This thing is a map."
"It is unknown who calculated the map. The only thing that is certain is that it finally appeared in the hands of a man named 'Crow'. According to the map, he found twenty-five bunches of keys, and in other Hunted by people, he hid the map in a world he had been to. Recently, someone got news that that world is the 'civilized world', which is the copy we are in now."
"… So?"
"This secret is monopolized by Chenxing, but all their members have never been to the 'civilized world', so they cannot get a visa to the 'civilized world' from the mission camp. Although I am not interested in this map, I am interested in giving My good big brother is interested in getting a little uncomfortable. I'd love to see it when he hears that his brother who thinks he's humiliating got the map before him and has to come begging me to sell it Show him." Xia Xingye blinked, "Now that our tasks have been completed, are you interested in cooperating with me?"
Lin Huai was silent for a long time, and said, "I can't figure it out..."
"Can't figure out what?"
"I can't figure out why you have such a thick skin." Lin Huaixu said with eyes wide open, "If it wasn't because you didn't have a slow motion with my left and right hands, I would wonder if you fell in love with me..."
Xia Xingye smiled: "Because I am a businessman who pursues maximizing profits."
"When you were in Minghua Middle School, your interests as a ghost were obviously greater than your interests as a teammate, so I chose to find a way to subdue you." Xia Xingye said unhurriedly, "Now, I have gained He—a fierce ghost that belongs to me. Although he is weaker than you, his attributes are very compatible with mine. Therefore, starting from this copy, I will consider you as a potential ally. Are you satisfied with this answer?"
"Of course, you don't need to worry about the distribution of benefits. Everyone I've dealt with said that I'm innocent." Xia Xingye smiled, and he took out a ledger from his sleeve. Something, "Do you want me to read it to you?"
"... I don't know why I always feel that your painting style has changed..." Lin Huai complained.
"And now, you are also a middle-level player. Although you are indeed very strong, when you reach the high-level field, you will also find that you can't run wild with your own strength. Just like many people will order from me Li Gui, there are definitely not a few people who will covet you." Xia Xingye said, "You will find that our alliance is quite mutually beneficial, just like I know how to capture and train Li Gui, I also know How can a ghost escape from the shackles of humans..."
What he said really made Lin Huai a little tempted. However, Xia Xingye's credit with him was close to bankruptcy. Although he and Xia Xingye were both smart and cunning people, Xia Xingye might not be able to figure him out if he really wanted to figure it out, but he was still too lazy to bother to deal with him. Lin Huai narrowed his eyes and said: "You can find the map by yourself, why do you want to find me to cooperate?"
"Because another high-level player also joined the battle for the map." Xia Xingye gritted his teeth, "Therefore, I need a helper..."
"who's that person?"
"he… "
Before Xia Xingye could reply, Chu Tianshu's voice came from the radio beside Lin Huai: "The person he was talking about is me."
