Demon Gatekeeper [Unlimited]
Chapter 53
Dugu walked in the mist for more than ten minutes without seeing anyone or hearing any sound.
The courtyard of the Begonia Garden is only that big, if you walk normally, a hundred of them will come out, but there is nothing but fog around Dugu.
This is different from ordinary mazes. Ordinary mazes have roads. Even if the path is tortuous, if you go around in one direction, you can always see the exit. This place is different, there is no road at all.Looking up is a gloomy night sky, surrounded by white fog so thick that you can't see your fingers. The ground looks like the earthy ground in the yard, but there are no ups and downs, and you can't see any markers.
Dugu poked the ground under his feet vigorously with a bamboo pole, and carved a mark on it.He has been walking in one direction, and every few steps he takes will mark a number on the ground to prevent himself from encountering ghosts hitting the wall or being deceived and feeling like turning around in circles.But so far, he has not seen his mark along the road.
"Is anyone there? Is there anyone!" A girl's timid voice came from nearby.
Dugu's footsteps paused, and he leaned towards the source of the voice.Both of them were startled when they met. After walking in the fog for so long, they finally saw a living person.But each other is a little wary, after all, no one knows whether ghosts will pretend to be human beings to deceive people.
"Passerby A?" the girl asked with a look of wariness.
"It's me." Dugu didn't know the girl's name, but only remembered that she was a member of Brother Qiu's team.
Before Dugu could speak, he didn't expect the girl to question him first.
"How do you prove that you are a passerby?"
"There's no way to prove that we don't know each other well, and I don't even know your name." Dugu spread his hands in a funny way, and said, "But I think if the devil really pretends to be a human being to deceive people, he will at least pretend to be a human being." A person you know comes to fool you, and then designs a more dangerous situation, waiting for you to save him or he comes to save you, lowering your guard."
"Maybe you're doing the opposite." The girl didn't accept Dugu's words, and still looked at him coldly, as if ready to strike at any time.
"Then let's pretend we haven't seen each other and continue to go our separate ways." Dugu didn't really want to bring a player he didn't know, he still had to find a way to hook up with the devil.
"That's no good, I finally met a living person." The girl stopped Dugu unwillingly.
"You don't believe me." Dugu felt a little dizzy, and even missed Brother Qiu, at least when he was around, his team members were very quiet.
"Then you find a way to prove it to me and make me believe you." The girl said naturally.
Why, I'm not your father.Dugu answered silently in his heart, and felt that he might be led astray by classmate Gangjing.After all, he used to be gentle and gentlemanly towards girls.
"Then at least tell me what to call you." Dugu finally chose to give in and not bully the girl.
"My name is Bing'er." The girl replied with some reluctance.
Dugu: "The ability is freezing?"
Bing'er was shocked: "How do you know?"
Dugu: Isn't the name obvious enough?
Dugu didn't continue to entangle with him about the name, but instead asked: "Where are your teammates, I don't think you were tied together before entering the game?"
"Who knows, it disappeared as soon as I entered the game. The rope seemed to be cut by someone. I yelled for a long time but no one responded until I met you." Binger asked: "Did you find anything about you?"
Dugu: "Not yet."
Bing'er showed a somewhat disappointed expression: "Brother Qiu must have found his way now, if only he met Brother Qiu."
Dugu nodded indifferently and didn't speak any more, and continued walking while making marks on the ground.Players can meet each other, which proves that his previous guess that players are separated in parallel spaces is untenable.The space of the maze seems to be infinitely extendable, and he still has no idea where to open the door of the maze.
Dugu suddenly turned around and turned back in the direction he came from.
"Why, what did you find again?" Bing'er asked like this, but her tone didn't seem to hold much hope.
"No." Dugu squatted down as he walked, looking for the mark he left just now on the ground.But the mark is gone.
"Hey, I heard that you have a very powerful hypnosis skill, which can even control demons. Tell me what kind of skill it is." Bing'er glanced at Dugu who was squatting on the ground, and felt that those newcomers who posted forum posts would really know it. It's an exaggeration, Dugu's appearance looks like they are talking about clever calculations and strategizing.
Dugu raised his head and glanced at Bing'er. The girl's expression in the mist was not clear, but he could hear the contempt in the other party's words, which was just what he wanted. Great skills, I'm just lucky."
Bing'er herself thought the same way, and when she heard Dugu admit it, she was even more sure.
"Dingling bell." There was a crisp bell sound, and a burst of small laughter came from nearby.It sounded like a girl's voice, but when I listened carefully, it sounded like weeping.
"Who!" Bing'er immediately became nervous, holding the dagger issued by the system in her hand, and looked around warily.
Dugu also stopped what he was doing, and carefully observed his surroundings.
"Swipe!" A black shadow floated through the white mist.
Bing'er was taken aback, and shouted sternly, "Come out, don't play tricks."
Dugu thought to himself, maybe he wasn't pretending to be a real ghost.
Dugu didn't panic, he just waited for the ghost to appear, and he was anxious if he didn't come.
"Passerby A, behind you..." Bing'er suddenly showed an expression of extreme fear.
Dugu turned around as he said.White frost spread from under Bing'er's feet, spreading around Dugu's feet.The moment it touched his shoes, it instantly condensed into ice.It spread upwards all the way, freezing half of Dugu's leg in place.
"You?!" Dugu showed an expression of anger and fear: "What are you doing! I'm not a ghost!"
"I know you're not." Bing'er sneered: "Idiot, the game has killing restrictions, the purpose of the ghost at night is to kill a person to complete the possession, we have two people here, now you are frozen here, I can leave, If you were a ghost, who would you kill first? As long as you die, the game is over."
"How could you do this, aren't we companions?" Dugu questioned with staring eyes.
Bing'er seemed to have heard some joke: "Companion? Companions are those who are useful. For someone like you who is useless and disobedient, it's better to kill him early. After you die, it will be better for your teammates to be leaderless." Control isn't it? It doesn't matter if you can't control it, in the next few days, you will be short of a few useful scapegoats."
"So it's not a game setting to separate me and my teammates, but your team's fault? You did it on purpose, and you already planned to let me out tonight?" Dugu thought quickly.
"It's not too stupid, but it's a pity that it's too late for you to understand now." Bing'er bowed to him: "I won't play with you anymore. For the rest, you can talk to the ghost slowly, maybe he will sympathize with you." , I am reluctant to kill you again."
After finishing speaking, Bing'er seemed to think that the joke she made up was funny, so she laughed to herself.
Dugu also laughed along with her, and then in front of her, his eyes turned blood red, and his body also showed the characteristics of a demon: "I also think he should be reluctant to kill me. Do you think I act like it? Bing Bing It's a good ability, but it's a pity that such a thin ice layer can't trap people. I gave you a chance, why didn't you just kill me with an ice pick? Oh, yes, you want to leave me Ghosts as bait."
"But you can't kill if you want to. After all, the body of our demons is not as fragile as yours." Dugu's voice was full of ridicule. ring.The shattered ice crystals pierced Dugu's skin, but he walked forward indifferently. Soon, the wound on the surface of the skin healed again.
Bing'er was stunned, screamed and ran away.
She didn't know what was wrong. Her teammate's ability is obviously binding teleportation, which can bind and teleport any two players to the same location. She is indeed bound to passerby A. How could she become a demon in disguise? Woolen cloth?Could it be that Road Ren A was already possessed by a demon during the day?When is that?No, she had to tell Brother Qiu quickly.
The player in charge of teleportation has a branch skill called tracking. As long as he has teleported the target, he can feel the approximate location of the other party within an hour and track it.
Bing'er made an agreement with her teammates that once she felt that Dugu's location disappeared or she and Dugu were separated, the teammates would immediately track her location and come to meet her.
"Why did you run in such a hurry, what happened?"
Binger ran for a while in the thick fog, and finally bumped into Brother Qiu, and the shadows of the other three teammates loomed behind him.
Bing'er was relieved, and while adjusting her breathing, she said to Brother Qiu: "That passer-by, he is a devil! I saw him become a devil with my own eyes!"
"Oh?" Brother Qiu laughed, his eyes turned purple little by little. Although he still had Qiu Ge's face on his face, his demeanor was completely different. He stretched out his long nails to grab Bing'er's neck: " Is it a demon like me?"
"You!" Bing'er was caught off guard by the opponent, so she could only break the hand on her throat in pain. At the same time, she opened her eyes wide in horror and looked behind Brother Qiu, trying to call other teammates for help. Only then did she realize that there was no other way. The teammates are just the black shadows floating around in the fog just now.
"Tsk, but if I kill you now, the game can no longer be played." The demon showed a distressed look.
"Well!" Binger was struggling desperately. Of course, she didn't want to die. It was clear that she planned to be lost today.
"That's good." The demon seemed to have thought of a good idea. He reached out and grabbed Bing'er's calf, and broke it as hard as breaking a tree branch. The resulting wound gushed out.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" Bing'er's tragic cry went straight to the sky, followed by the other leg.Bing'er was in so much pain that she couldn't make a sound anymore, she writhed on the ground with her mouth wide open, panting rapidly, like a fish out of water.
"This way you won't be able to run away, you stay here obediently, and I'll come back and kill you when I've had enough fun." The devil slowly wiped the blood on Binger's clothes, appreciating Binger's pain with satisfaction look like.
He was about to leave, but he stopped suddenly, looking towards the end of the mist: "Ah, oh, your companion seems to be looking for you, I have to find a way to hide you."
Bing'er didn't know how the devil's so-called hiding was. In her opinion, the other party just stood beside her and then made a move.
After 2 minutes, Brother Qiu really appeared with the other three players. His eyes slid over Binger, but he didn't seem to see it.
"Third, where's Bing'er?" Brother Qiu looked at a male player behind him.
The male player named was a little fat. After running for so long, a thin layer of sweat had formed on his round forehead. He wiped the sweat with his sleeve, and searched around in circles in the fog, but he couldn't hit the demon and Binger who fell on the ground: "It's strange, the tracked location is in this area, how could it not be there?"
"I'm here! Brother Qiu, I'm here!" Bing'er suddenly gathered all her strength and shouted.
"Don't waste your efforts, they can't hear a word." The devil laughed at the side: "My illusion is not so easy to break. Now they see you and me as the same as the surrounding fog. No , it’s not as good as the fog, at least they can walk in other fogs, and as long as they get near us, they will turn subconsciously.”
"Brother Qiu, shall we continue to search? The third child's tracking technique has never made a mistake, and now there is a mistake. Maybe it is because the space in this game is different from the reality." Another female player in the team asked.
"Forget it, let's find a way to leave first. Anyway, the passer-by will die today. We have to find the exit as soon as possible before he dies."
"Don't go! Please, don't go!" Bing'er watched Brother Qiu leave with three teammates, her eyes gradually stained with despair.
On the other side, after confirming that Brother Qiu and the others had gone far away, the demon also left.
