Before exploring, Mu Qin looked down at the clothes on his body. After entering the game, every player will be "forced" to wear uniform clothes. The gray clothes are like prison uniforms. Although they are not good-looking, they are not very bad. . Mu Qin tidied up his clothes a little, then reached out and fumbled in his pocket, and he quickly found a card, the main card that all players will get at the beginning of the game.
When his fingers touched this thin card in his pocket, Mu Qin became inexplicably nervous, and his heartbeat also inadvertently accelerated slowly. In this game, the probability of him getting the death card is One in six, the probability is not low, he knew that he would become an executioner one day.
But when Mu Qin took out the card and looked at it, he couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief.
Not the Grim Reaper.
It's a "priestess".
The "priestess" card depicts a beautiful woman dressed as a priest, suspended in mid-air in a pure white feather coat, above her head is a full moon hanging in the vast starry sky, and an owl surrounds her. In one hand she holds a key made of gold thread and in the other a pomegranate, the symbol of Persephone in Greek mythology.
The edge of the card is a delicate pattern, and the bottom of the card is written with Greek numerals: "Ⅱ" and "Priest" in English.
Mu Qin turned the card over and looked at the text description on the back of the card. The text description reads:
The stars are singing, singing the legends of the distant past.
The Priestess brings you the purity and harmony of the Grail.
Medical card, this card can heal your injuries.
Seeing the three words "Medical Card", Mu Qin knew that it was a good card, but he didn't know how many times it could heal injuries, whether it had durability and times limit.
Muchin put the priestess in his pocket. He looked around for a moment, trying to figure out which direction he should go.
This abandoned amusement park can't see the border at a glance. Mu Qin estimates that it is a very huge area. Some places are brightly lit, and some places are so dark that you can't see your fingers. There are roads in the front, back, left and right of Mu Qin, which made Mu Qin fall into the difficulty of choosing for a while. At this time, he realized that the fool card that novices get with a high probability is indeed a very good card, which can make the People quickly find clues to escape in such a large area.
Mu Qin licked his dry lips, and finally walked towards the bright place with phototaxis. He saw a small semi-circular house in front of him, with faint and weak light, so Mu Qin walked towards that building. The small house passed by, but when Mu Qin approached the house, he found that the house was a haunted house.
This haunted house is a huge but only half of a skull. The semicircular shape is the upper part of the skull. The two black eyes of the skull are the entrance and exit of the haunted house. The light from the black eye sockets.
There are some notice boards next to the haunted house, with posters of the haunted house, ticket prices and precautions for the haunted house.
Mu Qin approached the notice board and carefully observed the posters of the haunted house above. The posters usually not only promote the haunted house, but also marked the name of the amusement park, so Mu Qin can know about the amusement park through such a simple notice board. The name is: "Despair Theme Park"
"Desperate Paradise?" Mu Qin couldn't help his desire to complain, he said to himself, "With such a name for the amusement park, who would dare to come in and play? It will be abandoned and closed sooner or later."
"No, it has been abandoned." Mu Qin said and looked up again, looking at the entrance of the haunted house next to the sign. The entrance of the haunted house is the eye socket of the skull, and there is a small chandelier emitting green light hanging on the eye socket. It is this small chandelier that makes the eyes of the skull glow green, which looks very "scary".
Mu Qin stood at the entrance of the haunted house and took a peek inside. The haunted house is an underground haunted house, because after entering the door, there is a series of stairs leading to the underground. Mu Qin didn't have a light in his hand, so he just looked at it and didn't intend to go down.
Afterwards, Mu Qin circled around the haunted house again. The haunted house looked small from the outside, and Mu Qin didn't find anything of value. He thought he needed to go down to the underground structure of the haunted house to gain something. But does he have a flashlight or other lighting tools on hand.
Or look elsewhere.
Mu Qin thought about it and turned to leave the haunted house, and he walked towards another bright place.
Another bright place is the carousel that is still in operation. This carousel is built next to a small lake in the park. If Mu Qin wants to go there, he has to walk across a small wooden bridge. When Mu Qin walked onto the small wooden bridge, Mu Qin could hear the music from the carousel in the distance. It seemed to be the only thing that could bring joy to these "visitors" in this lonely and dilapidated paradise.
Mu Qin continued to walk in the direction of the carousel. He felt that the carousel with such a big light and music playing would definitely attract the attention of other players, so there was a high possibility that other players would also turn in this direction. Trojan horses gathered.
Although there may be not only humans but also killers gathered here, it doesn't matter. At this time, Mu Qin needs to act collectively with other people so that he can judge the situation.
Most of all, Mu Qin wanted to know if Zhou Yue had entered a map with him.
With this purpose in mind, Mu Qin quickly walked to the carousel, and as expected, he saw two people gathered beside the carousel.
A man and a woman.
This pair of men and women feel relatively close in action, and they seem to know each other. They are standing in front of the carousel and whispering to each other. Mu Qin hesitated whether he should go up to say hello, but he just hesitated. After a while, he strode over quickly and walked to the side of the man and woman.
The sound of Mu Qin's footsteps quickly alarmed the couple. They all turned their heads and looked at Mu Qin with either curiosity or surprise.
Mu Qin was also observing the couple. Under the brilliant lights of the merry-go-round, he could barely see the appearance of the couple. They looked very young. They should not be more than twenty-five years old, and both of them were students. gas.
The man is neither tall nor short, about 1.7 meters, a little shorter than Mu Qin, not satisfactory but passable. The woman is very beautiful, with fair skin, an oval face with double eyelids, pink lips, watery eyes, and very smooth black long hair. She is relatively short, maybe less than 1.6 meters, but she is very petite. lovely.
These two people should be a couple, because Mu Qin saw their hands holding each other tightly.
Just after Mu Qin finished observing the couple, among the couple, the man took the initiative to come forward to talk to Mu Qin, and the man said, "You... are you a newcomer?"
One sentence from him made Mu Qin realize that the other party was not a newcomer, and Mu Qin said, "No."
Perhaps because he was too young, this boy seemed not good at talking to people, but he still tried to raise his voice to gain confidence. He said, "That's good, I don't want to explain this game to you."
Mu Qin feels that the other party is not friendly, but thinking of this extreme situation, it is very normal to be defensive and unfriendly to people. And the couple know each other, they know each other and they trust each other, they can't help but form a small group and exclude everyone outside the group.
However, even though the other party may be repelled, Mu Qin still has to talk to others. Mu Qin said: "The music of this carousel is very loud, and the light is also very conspicuous. I think other people on this map will also be affected later. It attracts people to gather here one after another, in order to successfully escape, we always have to act together, so I hope that we can introduce ourselves to each other beforehand."
When Mu Qin said this, the boy could not treat Mu Qin coldly anymore, and he exchanged glances with his girlfriend, and seeing his girlfriend nodded, the boy turned to Mu Qin and said, "Okay , but you introduce yourself first."
Mu Qin smiled and said calmly; "My name is Mu Qin, and I am a veteran."
The status of a veteran seems to be easy to win the favor and trust of others, or it can also be a deterrent to others, so the boy's cold face suddenly softened a little, and his tone was no longer tit-for-tat. The boy said: "My name is Shi Wen. , I'm... a rich second generation, I'm still in college."
The boy then pulled out the petite girl beside him and said, "This is my girlfriend, her name is..."
Before the boy could finish speaking, the girl took the lead and reported her name very actively: "My name is Lu Jiayi, and I go to the same school as Shi Wen."
Lu Jiayi's activity seemed to make her boyfriend Shi Wen a little dissatisfied, he reached out to grab Lu Jiayi's hand, and pulled her behind him.
Mu Qin narrowed his eyes and asked, "How old are you?"
Shi Wen pursed his lips and replied: "I am twenty, she is nineteen."
"You are so young." Mu Qin said that twenty years old is really very young. In the company Mu Qin works in the real world, there are often such young men and women who come to apply for jobs. They are all those who have just graduated from college. For the first time entering the society, men and women who are full of fear but have to bite the bullet, they are fledglings, and almost everyone can smell the immature milk fragrance on their bodies.
Mu Qin continued, "I'm twenty-eight."
Maybe Mu Qin feels trustworthy. Although the boy named Shi Wen couldn't completely abandon his vigilance, he still said to Mu Qin: "I want to know if you are a killer? Let me explain in advance that my girlfriend and I both no."
When Mu Qin heard this, he immediately smiled, stared at Shi Wen and said, "You ask this question so bluntly, aren't you afraid that I'm really a killer who will suddenly turn around and kill you both? You must know that now, standing here Apart from you and me, there is no one else, as long as I want to do something, neither of you can run away."
Mu Qin originally thought that his slightly threatening words would make the two young people panic, but to his surprise, Shi Wen just smiled awkwardly and said to Mu Qin: "If you are really a killer... we two stand here defenseless, you must have done it long ago."
"That's right!" Lu Jiayi, Shi Wen's girlfriend, also interjected: "You look nice, you don't look like a killer... Why don't you wonder if the killer will be among Shi Wen and me?"
"Doubt will not be the reason for me to question and reject you." Mu Qin still maintained a faint smile. He squinted his eyes and looked at Lu Jiayi thoughtfully, and said, "Since we have talked about it, why don't we talk to each other?" Show me the cards in your hand?"
Shi Wen and Lu Jiayi probably also had this intention, and they looked at each other again, and then Shi Wen said to Mu Qin: "It's okay, you can see who the killer is by looking at the cards, but first let's see yours."
Mu Qin didn't mind the opponent being so defensive, so he took out his own tarot card, showed Shi Wen and Lu Jiayi the priestess in his hand, "This is a healing card."
Shi Wen nodded when he saw it, and took out his own card. Mu Qin carefully looked into his palm and found that it was a reversed card.
Reversed... demon.
Maybe because he knew that Mu Qin didn't understand this card, Shi Wen explained: "It's also the first time I got this kind of reversed card."
Speaking of this, Shi Wen approached Mu Qin with the card, so that the content on the back of the card could be clearly seen by Mu Qin, and then Mu Qin saw the following writing on the back of the card:
The devil is the minion of the god of death, but it is definitely not the power of the god of death.
You can try to master it, if you want to give your delicious soul.
Cursed card, the person who holds this card will be more vulnerable to damage.
After reading the notes on this card, Mu Qin said to Shi Wen strangely: "You know it's a curse card, why do you still hold it?"
Shi Wendao: "If other people gather later, everyone has their own cards, and if I don't, I will easily be mistaken for a killer."
"And..." Shi Wen glanced down at the Tarot cards in his hand, "I heard that this kind of reversed card, used by us 'humans' is a curse card, which is not good for us. But if the killer uses it , this kind of reversed card will become a card that is beneficial to the killer. The killer can only use the reversed card except for the upright Reaper. It probably means this. I read what others said on the wall of the safe house, and I have no real experience Pass."
"So that's it." Mu Qin understood what he meant, "The reverse card cannot be obtained by the killer, otherwise it will become his tool...so you can't throw it away easily."
Lu Jiayi suddenly added from the side: "Actually, it would be better to throw it away, such as tying a stone and throwing it into the nearby lake. The water is deep and dark, so the killer can't get it if he wants to. It avoids the possibility that this card will be used by killers."
Mu Qin glanced at this petite and lovely girl, and laughed: "You are right, it would be better to throw it away."
"Then show it to others later, and then I'll throw it away." Shi Wen said, putting away the cards first.
"By the way, there are also my cards, you can take a look." At this time, Lu Jiayi also took out the cards in his pocket. Mu Qin took a look and found that the card in her hand was the same as that of Mu Qin, and it was also a priestess.
Mu Qin did not say that it is meaningless to look at the card to identify who is the killer, because the death card can disguise itself. When it is exposed to the sight of others, it can disguise itself as any other card. The main card, but it is only a disguise, and has no actual effect. Therefore, if it is necessary to use the card to identify who is the killer, it is best for the card holder to demonstrate the effect of the card in front of others.
But doing so would be very wasteful, because some cards are one-time consumption, like Xu Fu who Mu Qin met last time, his chariot card is one-time use, it will be gone after use. In order to ensure the probability of their own survival, most players are not willing to waste their precious cards just to prove their identities. Therefore, it is not feasible to verify their identities by showing the effects of their cards.
However, the young couple in front of Mu Qin didn't seem to know about this. They seemed to think that as long as they showed others that the card in their hands was not the death card, they could prove that they were not killers.
Or, they deliberately showed their own cards, deliberately exposed the disguised death card in front of Mu Qin, making Mu Qin think that the killer was not any of them, so as to dispel Mu Qin's vigilance.
Of course, no matter what the possibility is, Mu Qin has no intention of trusting them, because in Mu Qin's opinion, neither the boy Shi Wen nor his girlfriend Lu Jiayi give Mu Qin a particularly good feeling.
Especially this one named Shi Wen, Mu Qin could see that he had killed someone before.
Mu Qin has an extremely keen intuition for murderers... no, it should be said that he has an extremely keen intuition for those "dangerous people", especially those who threaten Mu Qin's own safety. This intuition has helped him many times. Cheng Guoxu's identity as a murderer can be seen in just one game. For example, he can feel the aura of those who hunted down Mu Qin and Zhou Yue from afar in the real world.
Another example is now, he can see the gloom and depth in the eyes of this young man named Shi Wen.
But it doesn't matter, Mu Qin never minds other people's past, especially in this kind of environment, in this hopelessly dark game, it is a waste of time and energy to care about other people's past.
While waiting for other players to gather, Mu Qin didn't continue to talk to Shi Wen or Lu Jiayi. He walked around the entire carousel, wanting to search this place to see if there were any clues he needed.
The merry-go-round was still in motion, and Mouchin noticed that the large machine was connected to a bowl-thick cable, and the cables were buried underground. Mu Qin then observed and groped these wires. He estimated that there might be a small power plant in this amusement park, which is used to provide temporary power supply to the whole park. Some of the amusement equipment in the park can still move, just like the huge carousel that is still spinning in front of Mu Qin.
…
Mu Qin didn't wait for a long time, and soon other people were attracted by the lights and music of the carousel. The first one to come was a man wearing glasses who looked about forty years old. He had a fat head and big ears, a beer belly and messy hair. Although he was wearing the same gray clothes and trousers as Mu Qin and others But the clothes were too small for him, and Mu Qin felt that the fat on his body was almost bursting through the clothes.
He seems to be a newcomer, because when he saw Mu Qin, Shi Wen and others, the first thing he said was: "Who are you and why are you here?"
Mu Qin originally thought about explaining the current situation to this person, but before Mu Qin could say a single word, the other party became impatient, waved at Mu Qin and said, "This is not the place you should come to! Get out of here quickly!"
What this forty-year-old middle-aged man said attracted Mu Qin's attention, and Mu Qin lowered his eyes slightly, thinking about it. Mu Qin tentatively said to the fat middle-aged man: "This place is abandoned like this, why can't we come?"
"Even if it is abandoned, this place is still my property! You are trespassing on someone else's territory!" The middle-aged man seemed very angry. He reached out and patted the safety fence around the carousel vigorously. And the crumbling iron railings creaked.
But at this moment, Shi Wen, who was standing beside him without speaking, suddenly took a step forward, staring at the fat middle-aged man with icy eyes, Shi Wen said: "I know you, you are the general manager of this 'Paradise of Despair' Man, your name is Rong Yuxi."
This obese middle-aged man named Rong Yuxi glanced at Shi Wen without knowing it, frowned and said in disgust: "Who are you, how do you know my name?"
"Of course I know your name." Shi Wen sneered, and he took a step forward to approach Rong Yuxi. Mu Qin noticed that Shi Wen clenched his fists, his whole body was tense, and he stared at the fat man in front of him intently, as if he was going to punch someone at any time. Shi Wen also gritted his teeth and said, "I still know how you died!"
Rong Yuxi was a little afraid of Shi Wen's appearance that he would come to beat him at any time, so Rong Yuxi couldn't help but backed away a small half step because of the fear. After a while, Rong Yuxi felt that his stepping back made him look very cowardly. Unwilling to be reconciled, he braced himself and raised his head, proudly said to Shi Wen: "I'm still afraid that you won't succeed? I can also let you know How did you die!"
Seeing that the conflict between the two suddenly broke out, Mu Qin, who was watching in a daze, stepped forward to stop Shi Wen, who had a ferocious face, and said, "Calm down... what's going on? Now is not the time to quarrel." Bar
Shi Wen was not easily stopped by Mu Qin, and still looked eager to rush up and cut Rong Yuxi into pieces. At this time, Shi Wen's petite and cute girlfriend came in handy, and Lu Jiayi also came over and reached out to hold Shi Wen Arm, said: "Shi Wen, forget it."
"Forget it!?" Shi Wen immediately turned his head, stared at Lu Jiayi in disbelief, and almost yelled: "Do you know what this bastard did! He killed you!"
