Story of a pixel village next to the mantra

The car drove to the destination, Xia Youjie said to Hino Tingyin who was pretending to be unconscious on his shoulder: "Wake up, we are here."

Hino opened his eyes, turned his head to the left and right, opened the car door and jumped out instantly.

There were no cars on the highway today, and we arrived at our destination earlier than the scheduled time.When I went out, the morning sun was hanging over Tokyo, but when I arrived in Nannan Town, Yamanashi Prefecture, large clouds covered the sun tightly.

The car stopped outside the tent on the first floor, and there were already several people from the magic world waiting at the entrance.

Xia Youjie recognized one of the old men as a high-ranking person in the magic circle. He had visited Tokyo's curse high school when he started school. After he left, Teacher Yemo's face turned dark for 3 days.

The old man was talking with the people around him at this moment, and seemed to be in a good mood.It seemed that he was not the same person who was pointing at the high point with a coffin face before.

Hino Atsune has a strange habit, as if she has social bullshit, every time she sees a stranger, she will go up and say a few words face to face with them.It's fine if it's just an ordinary greeting, but she often speaks surprisingly when chatting; although the style is different, she is not as annoying as Gojo Satoru.

Xia Youjie just wanted to remind Hino Tingyin to pay attention to the old man, but there was no one around him.Take a closer look and she has started talking to the person standing on the far right of the tent.Xia Youjie sighed and hurried to follow.

As a mantra practitioner, his sensitivity to mantra spirit pressure is second only to the open six eyes, so when he approached the entrance of the tent, Xia Youjie was attracted by the spirit pressure from inside and stopped in his tracks.

Not quite right, Xia Youjie frowned slightly.There are multiple spiritual pressures in it, if it increases in number, it's okay, and the difficulty was temporarily strengthened when I took the exam.Although the aura is very weak, there is a stronger spiritual pressure than a level 1 spell spirit, and the evil aura emanating from it is obviously abnormal.

There are tricks.

Xia Youjie walked up to the old man before Hino Tingyin, and said hello with a fake smile: "Long time no see, Mr. Uemura."

The high-level executive who was talking with the people around him with Yan Yuese just now, after seeing Xia Youjie's school uniform, immediately turned into a serious expression, "Oh, you are a student of Tokyo Jugao?"

Xia Youjie remained polite, "Yes, my name is Xia Youjie, and I met you at the beginning of school. Today I accompanied my classmates to take the grade examination. I have a question to ask you."

Maybe he is in a good mood today, Uemura nodded, "Just ask."

With a false smile, Xia Youjie questioned unceremoniously: "I heard that in the last level 2 exam, the enemy only had one quasi-level 1 curse spirit. The tent is the test place for this time, right? But I feel the plural Reiatsu, and one of them has surpassed level 1. What's going on here?"

The atmosphere froze instantly.

Uemura said coldly: "This is the examiner's freedom to write questions. It's not your turn to control it. Stop talking nonsense here."

Xia Youjie replied, "Then it is the examinee's freedom to give up this exam." After speaking, he walked towards Hino Tingyin.

Uemura's face instantly turned livid.

----------------, --------------------------------- --------

After getting out of the car, the modeling of the destination looks relatively simple, except for the road, there is only a dark air wall ahead.

From tutoring, you learned that this thing is called a tent, and it is used to isolate and shield everything that happens inside, so as to prevent ordinary people from seeing and being frightened.

There are several NPCs gathered at the bottom of the tent, each with a communicable "..." icon on their head, you hurry up to trigger a conversation.

Examination Assistant A: "It looks like it's going to rain today. I'm so sleepy. I hope the exam will end quickly."

... Hey... The voice of touching fish leaked out!

Exam assistant B: "I heard from the local residents that something terrible has happened in this land, but according to the regulations, I cannot disclose it to candidates..."

The person's high-definition avatar shows a meaningful expression, and the game will give options in the next second.

"1. Remove the opponent's arm and force the information to be revealed (if found, there is a 20% chance of being disqualified from the exam)"

"2. Secretly insert gold coins into the opponent"

You see there are still people standing next to you, so you choose 2 reluctantly.

After automatically deducting 10 gold coins,

Assistant B of the examination room began to popularize science, "Before the apartment was built, this land used to be an orphanage. One night, the orphanage suddenly caught fire. The fire was so fierce that it engulfed the wooden structure of the house in one fell swoop. The adults in the orphanage patronized me. Running for their lives, all the children died in that fire. I heard that after the fire brigade arrived to put out the fire, the bodies inside had been burned beyond recognition. The matter was finally suppressed and the land was auctioned off at a low price gone."

You are alert, this is definitely implying that there will be ghosts in the exam.

After thanking you, you come to the third NPC.

Exam assistant C: "Have you read the local news? They say it's a cult..."

Before the other party finished speaking, Xia Youjie suddenly ran up to your side and interrupted the conversation forcefully,

"Ting Yin, this exam is tricky, there is a high possibility that someone has been tampered with in the exam room, you should apply to give up the exam immediately."

Hey, give up the exam?You look at Xia Youjie's high-definition profile picture, he looks serious and doesn't look like he's teasing you.

You are a little hesitant. Of course it is best to be lazy, but everyone has already arrived at the entrance of the examination room... and the grade test cannot be escaped. Even if you don’t take the test this time, you have to go back and repeat the test next time.

Seeing that you didn't reply, Xia Youjie continued to persuade, "I feel a super-level curse spirit and a very evil aura, it's too dangerous inside, there's no need to take risks for the exam."

Emmmm... Although I don't care about any monsters in it, but my classmates have persuaded me like this, the DNA of procrastination and avoidance in your body has moved again.

[Since Jie said so,]

You are typing the next sentence, a prompt pops up on the screen,

[Limited time] "Three-month commemorative event of server opening, held!"

"Event time: within 3 days from today"

"Event reward: During the event period, players who take the magician level assessment test in the game, whether they pass or fail, will receive a mysterious gift package."

There is such a good thing! ?

You immediately delete the words you gave up, and re-enter: [I am determined to take the exam]

Xia Youjie "Huh???"

Then no matter how much he persuaded, you didn't change your words at all.

In the end, Xia Youjie still respected your decision, but repeatedly told you to run out if the situation is wrong.

In front of the entrance, there is an NPC with a red exclamation mark on his head. This should be the chief examiner. You click on him to start the plot.

I thought I could enter the examination room by choosing 'yes' or 'no', but I didn't expect this elderly NPC to start asking you baba, what is the glory of the magic world, tradition, family, the importance of the exam... You are confused, tap the screen to fast forward and fast forward.

Finally, the other party seemed to say that he was tired, so he stopped to take a breath,

You quickly interjected, "Are you finished?"

The NPC's face instantly became ugly.

Chief examiner Uemura: "Hmph, there's not much time left to..."

What he said behind was covered by the options that popped up on the screen,

"I'm about to enter the copy of the 'XX apartment' exam"

"Difficulty: 3 and a half stars"

"Main task: Eliminate all spells in the apartment (examination successful)"

"Submission 1: Find out the truth hidden in the apartment (reward for finding out the truth: item upgrade card X1)"

"Mission failure condition: the player dies, the player gives up halfway"

5-4-3-2-1

The screen turned black, and three large characters 'loading' appeared in blood red on it.

To start, you find a comfortable sitting position and put your whole weight on the back of the chair.

When the phone screen reappeared, the scene had changed.

You are standing alone in a small room.

In a square room, there is a row of iron cabinets in the upper left corner, and a window on the right.

A picture of an item was zoomed in "XX Apartment Entry and Exit Registration Form", with many entry and exit records written on it.

"Dungeon plot item detected, do you want to pick it up?"—【Yes】

After looking around, there is nothing else in the small room, you go to the door to trigger the door opening action,

"click"

"Reminder: The door is locked, but the lock is not very secure, please keep turning the joystick."

I understand, this is what it means to make you fuck.

"Kacha Kacha Kacha" you quickly rub the rocker on the handle with the palm of your hand.

"Den den den..." During the period, footsteps came from the speaker of the mobile phone. Is there someone outside the door?

Finally, after you relentlessly rubbed the rocker, the door lock broke, and you walked out of the small room and came to the lobby of the apartment building.

There are two sofas in the middle of the hall, you go to the sofa [interaction],

"Faux leather sofa with a soft surface, do you want to sit?"—You choose 【Yes】

But the character didn't sit down, but instead had an inner monologue: [I can't rest yet]

You continue to explore the surroundings, and the small room just now says "manager's room". It's strange, why did you appear in it, shouldn't you come in through the door normally?

There are several paintings hanging on the wall of the hall. When you walk into [Interaction], the details of each painting are similar.

"A fuzzy painting with a strange symbol in the lower right corner, maybe the artist's signature?"

Going forward, you find an alternating black and white pixel group on the ground. After interacting with it, you find that it is a newspaper with 2 news items on it.

The first one is about the follow-up to the orphanage fire incident you inquired about. In the past six months, mysterious human spontaneous combustion phenomena have occurred one after another in various parts of Japan. Pass.Next to it is a black and white photo of the orphanage.

The second is the wanted reward. There was a vicious mass suicide 10 years ago, and all the dead were members of a certain cult.The leader has been missing for a long time, but was photographed haunting Yamanashi Prefecture two months ago.Those who provide clues will be rewarded with 2 million yen, and there is a photo of the leader's face and side face captured by surveillance.

"Story clue items have been automatically stored in the inventory"

After walking a few more steps, you come to the elevator hall and meet the first NPC in the copy.Look at the height of the pixel is a child with black hair, he seems to be playing at the elevator entrance.

You walk to the elevator, and sure enough, the NPC is playing with the friends. It is said that there are quite a lot of children living in this building, and the elevator is slowly crowded.You originally wanted to go upstairs to investigate and decided to take the next elevator.

Perhaps because of the NPC playing at the elevator door, the elevator door judged that there was a foreign object and could not be closed for a long time.You waited for 1 minute, and the elevator door still didn't close.

You have no choice but to ask the NPC "Can you get in or not?"

The NPC froze and froze, looking sideways at you,

? "I don't want to go in!!"

You speak out to dissuade 【It is dangerous to play at the elevator entrance】

The NPC is still pulling with his friends.

There is no other way, you go behind the NPC and click [Interaction]

"1. Push the black-haired NPC into the elevator (evil value 5)"

"2. Pull the black-haired NPC away from the elevator"

There is no need to add so much evil value to children's fights, right?You decide to respect the NPC's opinion and choose 2 to pull him away from the elevator.

I saw you put the small pixel hand on the NPC's waist, then lifted him over his head and took a step back.

At this time, there was a crisp sound of "clicking" from the mobile phone, and you were startled. The little NPC's waist must have twisted... You quickly put him back on the ground.

After observing for a while, the NPC didn't show a painful expression, but held something like a gray-black charcoal stick in his hand, and then he threw the charcoal stick to the ground.

Holding the grass, shouldn't it break the NPC's toys?You look back at the elevator, the door has been closed, and the children inside probably went home.

You go to the NPC and pick up the half black long toy on the ground: "Unidentified black carbonized substance".

...After studying for a long time, I still can't figure out what kind of toy this is.

You asked the NPC apologetically, "What is this?"

The NPC didn't speak, but the eyes of his high-definition avatar were full of tears.

This black-haired NPC kid is quite cute. You can see that he must be a handsome guy when he grows up. You stuffed the "unidentified charcoal stick" into the [item bar] with a guilty conscience.

Comfort each other [I'm sorry, don't cry]

You rummaged through the 【Inventory】for a while, trying to compensate the NPC with the "Saury" that is most similar in shape to "Unidentified Charcoal", but he confiscated it.Hey, bring some candy with you next time you go out.

You can only promise the NPC "I'll get you a new one"

The NPC didn't seem to expect you to agree to compensation, and his eyes widened in disbelief.
