Chapter 41 Classic Movie Appreciation (XV)
After saying this refreshing "good news", the other party obviously didn't want the apprentice to continue asking questions. He hurriedly told the apprentice to complete the task as soon as possible, and then went offline with his avatar gray.
Before leaving, the other side ordered "Wei Xian" to swear that he would immediately use some magic to cover up all traces of their conversation and not contact them again before the end, and he must not let the power of blessing detect his existence.
Tang Xinjue agreed obediently, then deleted the chat history.
Physical cover-up is reasonable.
As for the power of blessings… when the disciple wins the prize, the master must of course be happy too, because a master’s school should always be in good order.
It had been a few minutes since Wei Xian left . In order to prevent her from discovering that her phone was lost and catching her by surprise, several people took pictures of the general content of her previous chat history with her "Master", and then pretended that the phone had never been turned on and put it outside the door.
Then, they began to study the chat records between the two.
This record started about three months ago. At first, Wei Xian just asked the other party to tell his fortune. After chatting for a while, Wei Xian already admired the other party very much. At this time, the other party suddenly said that Wei Xian was born in the six disasters, and had been protected by the guardian deity since childhood, etc., which was a very suitable fate for engaging in metaphysics.
After hearing about the mysteries and benefits of metaphysical divination, Wei Xian was convinced and became a disciple without hesitation.
Judging from the chat records, Wei Xian had met this person several times in real life. The yellow paper and other ritual props were handed to her by her master the last time they met.
From the beginning to the end, Wei Xian believed in his "master's" words without a doubt, performed the luck-changing technique without hesitation, and even took pride in it.
Apart from today, the last chat record in the dialog box was that the master ordered Wei Xian to promote the fortune-changing technique to the people around him, so that more people could receive the blessing.
Obviously, the first "promotion target" chosen by Wei Xian was the dormitory 606 across the street where Tang Xinjue and others were located.
After watching the whole thing, Guo Guo sighed: "What is more terrifying than a completely fake liar is a liar with real skills."
This so-called "master" did have a background in metaphysics, and the introductory techniques he initially taught Wei Xian were quite effective. However, all these things ultimately created a carefully set trap.
He wanted to trick Wei Xian into death!
This was not enough - every time the "Yellow Paper Fortune-Transfer Technique" was used, at least four people would be killed. Moreover, this was a dormitory area with a high flow of students. Given the radiation range of the fortune-transfer technique, if its influence was really widespread, countless students would die as a result.
His thoughts are so vicious that it is appalling.
After going through the whole process, they couldn't help but feel a shadow in their hearts. Since these were the background of the movie, most of them were already a foregone conclusion. All they could do was to protect themselves while solving the answer and get out of the movie safely.
"If what he said is true, then Wei Xian will be the first person to die due to the luck transfer technique."
Zhang You wrote down the name solemnly, but there was no sign of relief on his face: "I'm just wondering, are we getting the answer a little too quickly this time?"
As long as they find the answer to the movie test, then they just need to wait for the plot to end, complete their review and leave.
But as a "replay" of a movie, and the second part of a series, would it really be so easy for them to get through it?
Tang Xin Jue did not answer immediately. She imprinted the last part of the existing information and clues in her mind, then looked out the window: "I know what you are suspecting... Don't worry, from this point of view, our suspicion is likely correct."
Everyone: ...This makes us even more worried!
"The difficulty of a dungeon is definitely the result of a comprehensive balance of multiple aspects. If the solution is a little easier, then the difficulty of one aspect will definitely increase accordingly."
Tang Xinjue lowered his eyes, and all the props and superpowers he had exchanged appeared in his hands.
In an instant, everyone understood what she meant.
...Once the decryption is completed, the only thing that can prevent them from successfully completing the game is the danger inherent in the plot itself.
Pain and confusion surged into Jin Wen's brain. She opened her eyes dazedly. It was dark all around her and the lights were off. The ground beneath her felt hard and cold, and her nostrils were filled with a damp smell.
She struggled to stretch out her hand and touched the walls around her, only then did she realize that this was the bathroom.
How did she fall in the bathroom?
After being in a daze for a few seconds, memories flooded into her mind and Jin Wen shuddered immediately.
She recalled that when she just returned to the dormitory, her roommate called her from behind. When she turned around, she found that her three roommates were standing at the door, praying with their eyes closed, with strange smiles on their faces.
Wei Xian turned around and invited her to join him, with the corners of his mouth pulled up uncontrollably: "Come and absorb the spiritual energy of the transfer spell with us."
Absorb...spiritual energy?
Jin Wen was sure that she didn't want to do such a weird thing at all. But just after she refused, her roommates suddenly turned their heads and approached her step by step with ferocious faces, trying to force her to "pray".
Jin Wen was so frightened that she stepped back and hid in the bathroom. Just after she locked the door, her roommate banged on the door violently and quickly, which frightened her so much that she slipped and hit the wall, and then she fainted.
Now that she had regained consciousness, Jin Wen stood up with the help of the wall, feeling both panic and hesitation.
Does she want to go out?
The bathroom was cold and cramped, and it must have been very painful to hide here for a night. And now it was dark, and there was no light coming out of the dormitory. I wondered if my roommate was asleep...
Finally, reminded by the constant pain in her body and encouraging herself with a hopeful mentality, Jin Wen still carefully opened the door and quietly walked out.
Just as she had hoped, the lights in the dormitory were off, the sound of her roommate's even breathing could be heard on the bed, and the surroundings were extremely quiet.
At least compared to daytime, the dormitory seemed slightly normal at this moment.
This also made her feel a little relieved, but the series of strange things and weird roommates made her dare not stay for another minute, let alone continue to sleep. So she just quickly took her phone and bag, fumbled to open the dormitory door, and quickly got out.
It was pitch dark in the corridor, with only the yellow paper package hanging on the door emitting a faint glow, which flashed by and frightened Jin Wen so much that she almost screamed.
Afraid of waking up her roommate, she covered her mouth and left in a hurry. She wanted to go directly to the dormitory manager to open the door of the dormitory building. However, just as she reached the stairs, she suddenly heard footsteps coming from below.
In the darkness, the footsteps were very slow, and each one stepped heavily on the stairs, as if supporting a shaky body.
This voice not only doesn't sound like it comes from a normal person, it even...
Jin Wen was horrified when she heard this and didn't dare to go downstairs as originally planned. She quickly retreated back to the corridor, but found that there was nowhere to hide.
The footsteps were getting closer and closer, and moving higher and higher. The girl was so anxious that she was sweating and could hardly think. She could only panic and return to the door of her dormitory.
No, you can't open the door, you can't go back!
The instinctive warning sounded wildly in her mind, which eventually prompted the girl to grit her teeth, turn around and knock on the door of the next dormitory.
Please open the door, please open the door, save me...
Again and again.
Jin Wen covered her mouth tightly, tears of fear burst out and flooded her cheeks.
Tang Xinjue was awakened by a knock on the door.
“Bang, bang, bang!”
The knock on the door was very urgent and was particularly clear in the quiet night. Following the sound, Tang Xinjue got out of bed and walked to the door. He stood there for two seconds, but then withdrew his hand that was about to open the door.
Is there something wrong with that knock at the door? No, everything is wrong.
On the first night in the dungeon, when she hadn't figured out the pattern of danger, how could she have slept alone in her bed without any precautions and only woken up when there was a knock on the door?
The moment the logical flaw appeared in his mind, true memories came flooding back and Tang Xinjue's eyes immediately became clear.
As expected... As far as I can remember, they didn't sleep at all tonight, but chose to sit together and keep vigil. The lights in the dormitory were also on from beginning to end.
But now, my roommate is nowhere to be found, the lights are off, and only the knocking on the door keeps hitting my eardrums.
The perception spread from the palm of my hand. It was freezing cold outside the dormitory door, without any sign of life.
Without asking who was outside, Tang Xinjue withdrew his hand and closed his eyes.
[Mind Control (Level 1): The first step to control is self-control.]
[Isolating most of the interference from illusions is also the basis of mind control]
“Bang, bang, bang!”
Tang Xinjue suddenly opened his eyes.
The lights in the dormitory were bright, and the other three people who were leaning against their chairs had fallen asleep at some point, unaware of the changes in the outside world.
The only thing that was the same as in the dream just now was the hurried knocking on the door.
This time Tang Xinjue did not hesitate. He opened the door directly and pulled Jin Wen in while she opened her eyes in disbelief.
Jin Wen was so dazzled by the bright light in the room that she could hardly open her eyes. Her legs were weak and she leaned against the door. Before she could recover from the fact that she was rescued, she saw the weak girl who had just opened the door for her quickly turned around and began to wake up her sleeping roommates one by one.
This is normal, but the way the other party wakes people up seems a little unusual?
Jin Wen opened her eyes wide in shock: Is that... a toilet plunger? ?
Under her shocked gaze, the weak girl raised up a toilet plunger-like object that she had pulled out from somewhere and pointed it at the three people who could not be woken up no matter how hard she shook them.
The next moment, the rubber head of the toilet plunger shrank, and as if ten stereo surround speakers were turned on, a shrill and terrifying howl gushed out from it!
