The Game Show of Death: Demons of Reason

The sixth floor is different from any previous floor, not because the facilities on the sixth floor are so complicated, but because there is nothing on the sixth floor. .

The moment the elevator opened, Nian Weiji suddenly felt a chill invade. He looked outside the elevator and saw only darkness.In front of everyone, the entire sixth floor seemed to be filled with black mist. There was no road and no light. It was dark even looking overhead. People couldn't tell whether it was because it was too dark or because the floors were too high. There is no end in sight.

Mick poked his head out and shouted into the darkness: "Hey! What's going on, Hey!"

Nothing changes. After Mick shouted and listened intently for a while, he whispered, "There is no echo, it seems that this place is not very empty, and there should be an entrance after a short walk..." He thought for a moment, and stretched out his hand to pull Jin to himself. In front: "Jin, you go ahead, let's find the way."

Mick's team got out of the elevator first, and they disappeared into the darkness after walking three meters away. It can be seen that this place is not simply dim, and there must be something substantial between them.

After Mick's group entered the floor, there was no movement from outside.If this place is really as narrow as Mick said, and Mick hasn't turned back for so long, he must have found the entrance, Nian Weiji thought so.Chen Luyao might have the same thoughts as Nian Weiji, he talked to Qin Guican in a low voice, and stepped out of the elevator door. The director said that this game is a story game, so it must be that the earlier you get familiar with the game content, the more advantage you will have. Now that two groups have gone into the dark, they should act quickly at the end of the year.

"What should we do, Wei—" Nian Weiji was about to turn his head to ask Wei Zixu, but he heard a strange laugh coming from beside him.

"You can't do it like this, wait, I'll get you a human skin."

Beside Nian Weiyi, a man in coarse linen smiled at him. There was a slit on the man's neck, as if it had been torn apart by force, and a dark cavity could be seen.

"Let's go out and follow them. Huh? What's wrong with you, Doctor Nian?" Wei Zixu shook Nian Weiji who suddenly froze.Nian Wei had recovered, subconsciously pulled down Wei Zixu's neckline, and carefully examined his neck.Wei Zixu stopped Nian Weiji's inexplicable behavior, and walked out of the elevator by himself, letting Nian Weiji follow behind him.

Was that a vision just now?Nian Weiji was very surprised, because the illusion of the lunatic was too realistic, as if there really was a simple-minded pickpocket standing beside him just now.

A similar situation also happened to Wei Zixu.Wei Zixu said before that he always saw a ghost of a woman in red, and whenever the ghost appeared, he always had a splitting headache.At the end of the year, I didn't think much about it at the time, but now it seems that Wei Zixu's hallucinations should be a side effect of the "demon" skill.Since the hypnotic effect of the "demon" is implemented through hallucinogenic gas, Wei Zixu will inevitably inhale the hallucinogenic gas at the end of his bedside, and it is expected that he will be affected.It's just that he hadn't seen the side effects of the "demon" skill with his own eyes back then, so he understood how frightened Wei Zixu was before and why he beat him up.Nian Weiji rubbed his nose, in order to save face, it was better not to tell Wei Zixu about his vision of a lunatic. .

Nian Wei followed Wei Zixu out of the elevator, surrounded by thick darkness, he felt even colder.

puff-

A heavy landing sound came from behind Nian Weiji. He turned his head and saw Marquis Jin kneeling at the door of the elevator, lying on the ground with his head in his arms.

"What's the matter with you?" Nian Wei had already walked over, and found that Jin Hou was trembling all over, and seemed to be in great pain.

"Just now...a needle pricked me just now, it hurts so much, I feel...as if all the blood in my whole body is pouring into my brain..." Jin Hou said intermittently, and at the same time put his arm on the The pinhole show for the year has not been seen.

"It's 'judgment'." Wei Zixu also came to Jin Hou, frowned and said: "Yesterday, before Jin Jue died, he said that he would activate the 'Judgment' card at the beginning of today's game. Jin Hou was injected with some kind of liquid just now, Maybe it's a sign of the activation of the 'judgment' skill."

"Ah...it hurts so much, the blood vessels seem to burst...how about the medicine, my medicine..." Marquis Jin began to scratch the skin on his neck and chest unconsciously, the skin was already flushed Caught like herpes by him.He tore open the satchel and poured out the contents.He grabbed a handful of white pills to swallow, but was held down by Nian Wei, who stuffed the drugs back into Jinhou's satchel, and said seriously: "Be sober, this kind of thing will be destroyed if it touches anyone. You Now the physical signs are still normal, the heartbeat is a little faster, and it will recover after a little more patience, do you hear me?"

Marquis Jin looked at Nian Wei, his eyes were even redder than before the game started, and the red blood in his eyeballs was huge, which made his current appearance very creepy.He struggled a few times, but he didn't resist after all, but his attention was still on the drugs in the satchel.Maybe it was too much effort for him to resist, instead of really believing what Nian Wei said.

Jin Hou took a few deep breaths under Nian Weiwei's guidance, looked forward, suddenly changed his expression, and said: "There is a name, and I see a name shining in front of me."

Nian Weiji and Wei Zixu looked at it according to their words, but there was still darkness ahead.

"What's your name..." Nian Weiji had just opened his mouth, but Marquis Jin broke free from his hands and quickly ran into the darkness.

"Hello!" Nian Weiji called Marquis Jin, but there was no response.Wei Zixu gave him a hand and said, "Follow him." So the two of them followed Jinhou and ran forward.Soon, at the end of the year, I vaguely saw a nameplate glowing in the dark, with the words "End of the Year" written on the nameplate.As Nian Wei approached, he found that there was a door behind the name tag, and Wei Zixu's name tag was hung next to this door.

Nian Weiwei's eyesight wasn't bad, but he had to be so close to see the glowing name clearly, but Jin Hou saw it from far away at the elevator door.

"Go in," Wei Zixu pushed open the door, and told Nian Weiji, "Be careful."

Nian Weiji agreed, and pushed open the door, behind which was a reassuring incandescent light.Just the moment he walked into the room, his name tag fell to the ground, and "Nian Wei Wei" was smashed to pieces, emitting a stench.

In front of Nian Weiji was a very ordinary small room, which looked no different from any cheap rental house.

This room is about ten square meters, with white walls, wooden floors, no windows, and only the door that Nian Wei came in and another door on the opposite side.The structure of the room is simple, without any furniture except for a large wardrobe and a desk next to the left wall.

After Nian Wei finished observing the room, he walked to the opposite door. He grabbed the door handle and twisted it, and it was locked.

Then he turned to the big wardrobe. The whole wardrobe was painted white in the same color as the wall, and there was a dressing mirror on the surface. From it, Nian Wei could see himself with a haggard face but a fairly well-dressed one.The wardrobe is also locked, and now it cannot be opened. Nian Weiji thinks that it may be unlocked automatically because some conditions need to be met, because neither the door nor the wardrobe have obvious lock holes.

He then turned to the surface of the table to inlay an ultra-thin display screen, which is now black, and only a piece of golden cardboard was placed on the surface of the screen.Nian Wei picked up the cardboard and found that it was an invitation letter.A few lines of words were clearly printed on the invitation letter:

"Anthony Albert Cabot Carmichael cordially invites you to a masquerade ball, final dinner, and first public performance of a new play."

"Location: West Windler Estate, Long Island."

"Time: eight o'clock sharp tonight."

The invitation letter feels very heavy in the hand, and even has a gold powder plated edge, which looks very luxurious.

After the year has read the invitation, the display lights up, showing a blank form.There is a brief rule description at the beginning of the form: "The background of this story is the United States in the early [-]th century. You are invited to a dinner party. Please select the character's occupation and background description and follow the prompts to complete the form. Excellent character There are rewards for acting."

Just when Nian Wei had put down the invitation letter to look at the rules, the sharp edge of the invitation letter brushed against his fingertips, and Nian Wei had immediately felt his finger prickly, and a thin wound was cut on his index finger, with blood oozing out Come.Nian Weiji let out a "hiss", put his finger into his mouth and sucked it lightly.Broken nameplates and wounds, this series of ominous omens gave Nian Wei a very bad feeling.

At the end of the year, while disinfecting the wound, he began to set the role.There are several options in the player occupation column: playwright, film critic, agent, reporter, dancer, actor, accountant, fancier, etc.Nian Wei has chosen a dancer, and then needs to set the background information of the character. Nian Wei has named this character with his own English name: "Neo." Fitting role settings, easy to control.

Neo comes from an ordinary family. With his love for stage plays and hard work, he has gradually grown from a young dancer to a well-known stage actor, and because of his outstanding appearance, he was fortunate to star in a Broadway play "Cats".His passionate dancing must have left a deep impression on the audience, and this young stage actor is ushering in the pinnacle of his career.As for Neo's own character, it's not so likable.He enjoyed fame when he was young, and he developed a narcissistic and arrogant temper. Apart from striving for excellence in stage plays, he was usually difficult to get along with, and formed a lot of trouble with his colleagues.

After the end of the year has been set, the system automatically adds the relationship between Neo and Carmichael: Neo had a relationship with Carmichael when he performed on Broadway, and this time he was invited by Carmichael to the dinner party. I will play the main role in the next play, so I am here to win me over.

"Is Carmichael the screenwriter?" Nian Weiji said to himself.After setting the background information of the character, it is necessary to assign skill points to the character.Because the player is not a game character after all, it is impossible to fight with npcs in the game with real knives and guns. Many interactions are realized by comparing skill data.In other words, in this game, the director is allowed to compare data, which is already quite gentle for DEATHSHOW.

Nian Weiji doesn't know which skills are most useful in this game, so he can only guess from the contents of the invitation letter. Since it's a celebrity dinner, negotiation skills should be more important. It is very high, and there are inherent [acting], [detection], [stealth], related to the content of the repertoire, and may use data retrieval. At the end of the year, the [library use] skill was clicked, and then it was habitually located 【psychology】.

In this way, the skill points are allotted, and once the character "Neo" is created, a "click" is heard from the closet at the end of the year, and the lock is opened.

The wardrobe has three doors, and it is already very big. At the end of the year, I did not expect that there are retractable hangers in the wardrobe. Pulling them all out is equivalent to a small clothing store. The props and costumes that Director prepares for the players are very particular, and they don't seem to be coping with things at all.The background of the game is a celebrity dinner in the early twentieth century, and fashionable dresses are essential.Looking at the end of the year, there are old suits, tuxedos, and very modern slim shirts on one side, and costumes specially prepared for masquerade parties on the other.

Such a full range of retro dresses is not common in modern business circles, but it is a pity that there is no time to appreciate them at the end of the year.According to Neo's personality, he would probably choose the strangest look to be the center of the dinner party, but Nian Wei has considered that there will be dangerous encounters in this game, and low-key and easy-to-move clothing is the first choice.

Nian Wei has taken a well-tailored dark blue evening dress with black feather decorations on the collar, which is more in line with Neo's exaggerated role setting.After changing his clothes at the end of the year, seeing that he was still as handsome as ever in the fitting mirror, he stroked his hair proudly.But what clothes will Wei Zixu choose?That person usually wears casually, if he carefully dresses up this time, maybe he can still watch it.Thinking this way at the end of the year, I actually had a little expectation.

Nian Wei was fully dressed, took the invitation letter, went to the door and turned it lightly, and the door opened to him.

Outside the door was a space far larger than he had imagined.Before the end of the year, there is a one-way path, with tall street trees on both sides, sparse luxury cars parked on both sides of the road, and the path leads to a manor, which should be the "Long Island West Windler Manor" mentioned in the invitation letter .At the end of the year, I walked towards the brightly lit manor, and I could feel the evening wind blowing and the voices of people boiling in the distance. This place should be the interior of the building. The virtual reality technology in DEATHSHOW is really amazing.

The manor in the distance looked gorgeous and unreal, and a pale and swollen moon hung high in the night sky, as if it would be swallowed by the surrounding darkness at any moment.At the end of the year, I always feel the shadow of something moving in the dark, and there is a looming stench in the air.

And the dinner party has already begun.
