Chapter 105 The Way to Kill Him
Song Yang and Xia Jing quickly turned around, rushed out of the hut, and came to the main road.
In the next second, ear-piercing screams suddenly erupted around the town!
The howling that resounded through the night came from the Washing River that surrounded the town.
Amidst the sound like a dragon chant, water curtains suddenly rose from all directions of the town.
These waters seem to have souls, twisting and changing in the night sky, moaning and wailing.
They poured towards the center of the town with a bang, gathered together in mid-air, and turned into a huge, transparent western dragon!
The dragon twisted its neck, roared to the sky, and swooped down from the main road in the middle of the town!
The huge wings and the airflow brought by the flight shattered and destroyed all the houses on both sides!
The dragon rushed to the front of the main road and swallowed all the ghosts in one gulp—
These ghosts are probably all its bait.
Whenever a human enters this small town, this demon will quietly release a bait in an attempt to reproduce the scene of the complete annihilation of the townspeople and capture the souls of all players.
After being forcibly summoned out of his body, he had to swallow the ghosts back to replenish energy to prepare for battle.
At this moment, its body changed from water to flesh, covered by a layer of skin covered with dragon scales.
This layer of skin was as red as blood, and countless human faces emerged from under it, all of which were shouting and terrified expressions!
The giant dragon circled in the air, aimed at Song Yang and Xia Jing, and swooped towards them.
Facing the strong wind, the two took out their weapons from the space bag.
This dungeon ushered in its final moment.
The uninhabited town that has been silent for several years has been completely turned into ruins.
The ghost disappeared, the house collapsed, Feng Shi, Bian Ya, Jia Qing and Zheng Shu ran out one after another, and joined the battle with Song Yang and Xia Jing.
The dragon danced back and forth in the night, struggling.
That roar after another was like thunder, enough to shatter the entire sky.
After more than 20 minutes.
With a loud "boom", the giant dragon finally fell to the ground slowly, motionless.
Several people were panting, with a lot of blood splattered on their bodies, looking in a panic.
Zheng Shu recovered from the fierce battle, jumped up, and excitedly said: "Solved? We have already solved the main monster? Oh, I seem to feel an option to exit the instance in my mind!"
Jia Qing was speechless: "Brother Yang, so how did this demon get summoned?"
Song Yang briefly explained the whole chain of clues, and the group suddenly realized.
Needless to say, the four-star dungeon is indeed a four-star dungeon. The clues in it are twisted and twisted. If the brain is not fast enough, people will die if they are not careful.
Fortunately, the remaining six of them survived well.
Jia Qing hurriedly said: "Brother Feng and Brother Bian should be fine, right?"
Bian Ya lifted off his clothes that had turned into strips of cloth——
There is a bulge on the side of his left hip bone, like a huge tumor, and one can see that the bulge is still slightly wriggling.
Jia Qing was so frightened that he choked out.
Bian Ya gave him a funny look, and said calmly: "The devil is dead, but Elizabeth's curse still exists."
Feng Shi nodded.
His bat should have been born on the back of the shoulder blade, and he could already clearly feel a swelling and pain there.
The main monster of this dungeon has been eliminated, but the curse cannot be undone, so he and Bian Ya still need to exit the dungeon as soon as possible, otherwise if the bat grows up, their lives will still be in danger.
Song Yang looked back at Xia Jing, and asked in a low voice, "Do you want to take this main monster back?"
"Yes," Xia Jing has already taken out the space bag, and said with a light smile, "It is necessary to have sufficient supplies at special times, isn't it?"
He thought of something, shook the space bag at Bian Ya and Zheng Shu, and asked kindly: "Do you want to divide?"
Zheng Shu looked confused: "Subscription? Subscription for what? Submission of this main monster??"
He was full of question marks.
What can you do if you divide the main monster?
Bian Ya was surprised: "Is there any point in taking the monster's body now? Do you still want to enter the safe house?"
He shook his head and said, "I don't need it, you can take it away. It is mainly due to the two of you that the dungeon can be solved, and the monster props are also yours."
Since Bian Ya said so, Xia Jing is no longer polite.
Together with him, Song Yang divided the giant dragon and put it into several space bags as quickly as possible.
Once they're done, they're ready to exit the instance.
Since Zheng Shu, a newcomer, knew nothing about the current situation outside, Jia Qing said to him: "After you log out of the dungeon later, you will appear in a small room, don't panic, that is called the login room, you push away the login room The door outside is the game hall of Smiley City."
"When you get to the game hall, you have to find a very narrow corridor, and we will wait for you at the entrance of that corridor."
Zheng Shu listened seriously and nodded repeatedly.
On the side, the other four remained silent.
They passed a four-star dungeon without any risk this time, but they stayed in this dungeon for nearly three days, and they didn't know how many hours had passed in the game hall outside.
What happened to those four-star dungeons and those players.
Feng Shi said: "After going out, Xia Jing—"
Xia Jing was in the most special and dangerous situation among them.
Song Yang held Xia Jing's hand, and said in a low voice, "If you can still move freely later, why don't you take the dumpling and come to my personal space together?"
The safe house was about to fall apart, Song Yang really didn't want to let Xia Jing stay in that precarious place.
Xia Jing said, "After we go out, whether you can still use your personal space is still a question."
Feng Zhi was taken aback.
Xia Jing said softly: "Whether we can have time to breathe after we go out is also a question."
Song Yang's eyes darkened.
"So," Xia Jing smiled casually, "Let's talk about everything after we get out."
On the other side, Jia Qing had already explained to Zheng Shu.
Zheng Shu said anxiously: "Why do I feel that the situation in the game hall is more dangerous than in the dungeon..."
Jia Qing encouraged himself and Zheng Shu: "Don't think about it now, after you go out, the soldiers will come and cover you with water and soil!"
After Jia Qing finished speaking, the group fell into silence again.
What will happen to them and what will happen to them.
All these unknowns are waiting for them ahead.
The six exchanged glances with each other.
Song Yang held Xia Jing's hand tightly, and Xia Jing held him back.
Song Yang made up his mind, and said, "Let's quit the instance, and we will meet up immediately when we arrive at the game lobby."
The group nodded and Qi Qi closed their eyes.
The mechanical system sound rang in Xia Jing's mind.
"Congratulations to player Xia Jing for passing the four-star dungeon "The Way to Kill Him"!"
"The full score of the four-star dungeon is 80 points, the player Xia Jing cleared the level and scored 80 points!"
"Player Liu Mingyang is dead, and a total of 218 points will be distributed; player Gao Sheng is dead, and a total of 97 points will be distributed; player Huang Yu is dead, and a total of 65 points will be distributed; player Fu Lan is dead, and a total of 123 points will be allocated."
"The total points to be distributed is 503 points. Player Xia Jing gets one-sixth, which is 83.8 points. After rounding, it is 84 points."
"Player Xia Jing has a total score of 164 points for clearing the level, and the current cumulative score is 1310 points. Please continue to work hard!"
……
Song Yang regained consciousness in the login room.
The soundproofing of the login room was very good, and he couldn't hear any noisy sounds from the game hall in it.
And the quiet atmosphere can mobilize his thoughts at the fastest speed.
He looked at the dungeon selection machine with uniform specifications, his eyes moved, and he spent two points to quickly check the current situation of all dungeons.
The time displayed on the machine had been six hours since they logged into the copy.
In those six hours, the number of replicas has been reduced from 243 to 102.
Most of the remaining 102 dungeons are already in progress, only a dozen or so are not yet full.
Song Yang quickly judged that there should be many players who chose to enter the dungeon in advance.
After all, the feeling of being forced into a dungeon is really unpleasant.
For many players, the only way to enter the four-star dungeon is death, but obviously, they finally decided that even if they die, they must die to make themselves happy.
After grasping the information and knowing it well, Song Yang turned and pushed open the door of the login room.
At this moment, there are many fewer people in the game hall, and most of these people are lying on the ground.
Some of them closed their eyes, and some were in a daze with their eyes open. These should all be people who have just cleared the level from the dungeon, and the mental exhaustion can be seen from their faces.
Song Yang cast his eyes heavily on the large game screen in the front.
The number of online players has also decreased from 2019 before they entered the instance to 742.
Another 1000 or [-] people were missing.
Song Yang turned his head without saying a word, and looked beside him.
Jia Qing and Feng Shi had already walked out of the login room.
They noticed the rapidly declining number of players, and their expressions became a little heavy.
As for Xia Jing's login room, although it had also turned into a red light, the door had not been opened for a long time.
A bad premonition suddenly rose in Song Yang's heart, and his face changed slightly.
He walked over and slammed the door open—
There is no one inside.
This login room is empty!
"Where's Brother Jing?" Jia Qing was stunned.
Feng Shi quickly looked around: "Could it have come out?"
Song Yang said with a sullen face, "It's impossible for him to leave without waiting for us at a time like this."
Xia Jing knew that he would be worried, at such a time, that young man would not joke with him like this.
Song Yang immediately unfolded the small holographic screen and sent a message to Xia Jing.
Then he rushed to the narrow corridor at the corner of Smiling Face City without hesitation.
With his heart beating violently, Song Yang rushed to the end of the corridor as fast as he could. He prayed in his heart that the safe house would still be here, and Xia Jing would still be here.
But what awaited them at the end was the bare wall of the narrow corridor.
Song Yang slammed down the wall heavily and cursed in a low voice.
Jia Qing gasped and said, "Safe House and Brother Jing all, all disappeared?!"
In the next second, there was a "ding" in Song Yang's ear.
He immediately turned on the small holographic screen.
Xia Jing replied to his message: "As soon as I exited the instance, I was forcibly recalled by the safe house. Now the safe house has started to drift, and I can't control the direction of the flow, but there is no other danger for the time being, so don't worry."
Song Yang asked: "Which copy of the safe house has drifted to now, can you identify it?"
Xia Jing: "It's not in any copy, it's in the chaotic zone of Smiling Face City."
Song Yang froze and clenched his teeth.
Xia Jing once mentioned the chaotic zone of Smiling Face City to him.
It was a void, a dark place.
The time flow in that place fluctuates, sometimes as slow as the time flow in the copy, and sometimes faster than the time flow in the game hall.
Judging from the current speed of the conversation between the two of them, the time flow in the chaotic world is similar to that of the game hall at this time, but no one knows how it will change in the future.
Once at that place, Xia Jing couldn't even push open the door of the safe house and go out.
And when the drift of the safe house gets out of control, how long the house will stay in each place is also unknown.
Xia Jing once said that the longest time he stayed in the chaotic zone was more than ten days.
What's the difference between that and being locked up?
Song Yang didn't think it was a coincidence that Xia Jing was sent to the chaotic zone at this time, and it must be the handwriting of Smiling Face City behind it.
Wanting to understand this, his face also became extremely ugly.
Song Yang's brain began to spin rapidly.
Is there any way for him to reach Xia Jing's side immediately?
He quickly thought of—
Using his personal space as a medium, he and Xia Jing can meet each other!
Song Yang immediately took out the space key.
However, he soon discovered that no matter how much he used his thoughts to drive, the door to his personal space never appeared in front of him.
Everything was as Xia Jing expected——
The player's personal space is also unavailable.
Song Yang scratched his hair, took a deep breath, and tried to calm himself down.
Calm down and think of other ways, there must be other ways...
As if he could sense his mood at this time, Xia Jing soon sent another message.
"Song Yang, do you still remember the interspatial bag I gave you?"
Song Yang froze.
"Don't lose your cool, you're always by my side, aren't you?"
Seeing this sentence, Song Yang's throat seemed to be blocked by something, and his chest seemed to be stuffed.
He replied in a vague mood: "...I said I would not leave you a step, that's not what I meant."
Xia Jing seemed to be smiling: "Of course I know."
"But there is no other way now, so let's make do with it, Doctor Song."
Thinking of the things in the interspatial bag that Xia Jing gave him, Song Yang closed his eyes.
He took out the interspatial bag and held it tightly in his palm.
This thing connects him and Xia Jing, and it is also a very important thing for Xia Jing at the critical moment...
Song Yang exhaled slowly and finally calmed down.
He asked: "Do you think it is safe to communicate through the small holographic screen now?"
Xia Jing quickly gave him the answer: "It's not safe."
The small holographic screen is a product of Smiley City.
Admittedly, all the tools they use in this place now are products of Smiley City.
However, the small holographic screen can transmit information. Once the smiling face city is completely controlled and the channel for information exchange is mastered, it will no longer be safe for them to talk about anything.
Xia Jing: "So, let's not talk for now, and wait for a turning point."
Song Yang: "If an accident happens, remember to act according to the plan you once said."
Xia Jing: "I know."
Xia Jing: "See you later, Song Yang."
Song Yang stared at these five words, but did not move for a long time.
At the side, Feng Shi and Jia Qing looked at his expression and hesitated, "...What does Xia Jing say?"
Song Yang's Adam's apple rolled down.
He turned off the small holographic screen, and said in a low voice: "He's fine for now. Let's go, let's go back to the game hall first."
……
All players have discovered that their exit from Smile City has been closed.
At this moment it is 09:30 on a Monday night in the real world.
They are all trapped in this strange world.
Song Yang and the others bumped into Zheng Shu who was looking for a way in a daze at the entrance of the corridor, and then they quickly contacted Bian Ya and Lu Chenfei.
——Lu Chenfei also just came out of the four-star dungeon.
A group of people stood in the game hall, looking up at the huge holographic screen in front of them.
The number of copies and the number of players are constantly decreasing.
They watched those numbers beating again and again with their own eyes, as if they could see fresh lives disappearing before their eyes.
Lu Chenfei cursed in a low voice: "You dog, don't let me catch you."
About an hour later, Fei Shengxiao and Li Mian appeared in front of them with two other girls.
Another hour later, You Ye found them, and panting, "It's really disgusting. Do you know, it seems that all Smile City players have been forcibly recalled to Smile City."
Lu Chenfei said with a sullen face: "That's why these four-star dungeons are filled up so quickly."
Everyone doesn't want to be mentally tortured anymore.
They want a final decision.
Of course, there will always be a small number of people who are unwilling to enter the four-star dungeon.
They expected that maybe the four-star dungeon would be cleared before their time limit expired, and then maybe they would be able to escape.
They are taking chances.
Some people despise them, while others choose to manage themselves and keep silent about other people's choices.
Either way, they seem to be coming to an end.
……
The four-star copies were closed one by one.
A large number of players died, and many players returned to the game lobby one after another.
The number of people in the game hall began to increase again.
Among the low voices of discussion and chaotic figures, they saw Chai Feng with a sullen expression on his face, Wang Yueran who was in despair, Liu Yi who was sitting on the ground exhausted, Sha Yu and Yang Leliu who were always moving together, and saw The pale-faced Gu Chen and Gu Xing brothers and sisters.
Seeing them, Sun Qianqian hurriedly ran towards them and said in a low voice, "Something strange happened in the four-star dungeon I entered just now. An uncle suddenly yelled something into the air shortly after the dungeon started. I was willing to pay, let me out, and he just disappeared."
Lu Chenfei said: "Then he never appeared again?"
Sun Qianqian nodded.
Feng Shi frowned and said, "We have analyzed before that Smiling Face City may have something to do with some dignitaries. It seems that they have already started some kind of experiment in the four-star dungeon."
Lu Chenfei sneered, "Then what are we players, little mice?"
Song Yang didn't speak.
He clenched the space bag in his hand, folded his arms silently and stared at the big holographic screen in front of him.
Time passed by minute by minute.
Another hour later, Tang Yi went through the crowd and found them.
He glanced across a group of people and asked suspiciously, "Is Brother Xia not there?"
No one can answer this question.
Those in the know kept silent.
……
Jia Qing said with a bitter face: "We won't be inseparable from Smiley City until tomorrow, right? What about the school? We can't be missing persons?"
Youye thought thoughtfully: "I don't know if the people who died in this wave have returned to the real world. If they do, they will have to die again. So many deaths and disappearances in a short period of time should cause a lot of trouble. Some social attention is just right."
"But putting thousands of people in the real world can easily be diluted by the huge population," Bian Ya said softly, "Whether it will attract attention or not is still unknown."
Feng Shi said: "There are special departments related to supernatural powers in the real world, I think they won't be unaware of this incident."
Having said that, everyone was silent again.
Even if the special department discovers the existence of Smiling Face City, can they save them from the fire?
Maybe it's over before they actually get into action.
Song Yang glanced at the time.
It was almost three o'clock in the morning on Tuesday.
The number of copies has been reduced to 11, and the number of online players has dropped to 219.
The movement of these two numbers also began to become more and more slow.
After 10 minutes, the number of copies dropped to 10, and the number of players dropped to 209.
Jia Qing sniffed - this is probably another copy of All Destroyer.
After another 10 minutes, the number of copies dropped to 8, and the number of players dropped to 193.
The doors of the four login rooms were opened, and the four players staggered out, sat on the ground, took deep breaths, and experienced the feeling of being alive.
The two dazzling numbers on the large holographic screen turned into tortoise crawling.
Gradually, the game hall became quiet.
Everyone sat or stood, all silently waiting for the two numbers to finally stop changing.
And that must be the moment when the number of replicas becomes 0.
……
04:30am.
Song Yang took a step forward involuntarily.
Someone exclaimed: "It's changed to zero!"
Suddenly, the entire game hall became noisy.
"There are 119 people left, grass, how many people have died!" someone cried.
"It's cleared, so I don't need to enter the dungeon?! Hahaha, I don't need to enter the dungeon!" Someone jumped up.
"So what's going to happen next?" Someone looked around vigilantly.
Unknowingly, Song Yang and his group approached each other silently, back to back.
This is a tacit understanding.
Intuition told them that the next step might be the highlight.
Each of them focused on one direction, vigilantly observed the slightest change in the surroundings, held their breath, and waited for the unknown to come.
About 5 minutes later...
At a certain moment, everyone in the game lobby felt as if they had been slapped in the face!
Buzz--
Dull pain in the brain, violent vision shaking, and ghosting.
There was buzzing in the ears, and for a while, I couldn't hear any other sounds.
Some people couldn't even stand still and fell straight to the ground.
The game hall suddenly fell into chaos, and many people shouted in panic.
Song Yang stabilized his body, clenched the space bag in his hand, and shouted to the others: "Are you all right?!"
Lu Chenfei gritted his teeth and said, "I'm fine!"
Li Mian and Fei Shengxiao also shouted: "It's okay!"
Jia Qing tremblingly said: "What's the matter, what happened?!"
Zheng Shu: "I feel dizzy——"
In this shaking field of vision, Song Yang quickly realized that something was wrong.
It's not that there is something wrong with their bodies, but that Smiley City itself is changing.
The shape of this entire huge space began to collapse, the lines began to distort, and the colors began to become weird.
There seems to be a vortex above the game hall.
All the color blocks and all the lines are twisted together, and they spin and flow into this vortex.
Even the bodies of the players seem to be sucked straight by the vortex!
"What the hell does Smiley City want to do?!"
"Is it going to kill all our remaining players!"
Many people subconsciously took out props from the space bag.
However, except for the non-offensive props such as the human skin mask, other monster props cannot be displayed in the game hall at all.
As for swords and daggers, what use are these things at this moment?
They don't even know where the "enemy" is!
Song Yang asked Lu Chenfei and the others to hold each other to fix the relative position.
They gritted their teeth and persisted.
And this hell-like twisting and shaking lasted for a full minute, and suddenly, the vortex above the game hall released everything again.
It's like in a tug-of-war, they were about to be pulled by the other side with brute force, but the other side suddenly let go of the rope at this moment!
This time, everyone followed this mysterious force and fell to the ground!
Dizziness is gone, tinnitus is gone.
The field of vision no longer shakes, and everything is clearly visible again.
The game hall seems to have returned to its normal appearance, all the color blocks, lines, and all spaces have returned to their original positions.
--wrong.
The moment Song Yang raised his head, he froze there.
Afterwards, the entire game hall fell silent for an instant.
……
The large holographic screen at the front suddenly disappeared.
Instead, there is a deep corridor.
A lamp was lit every few steps on the ceiling of the corridor, and the sufficient silver-white light illuminated the area a bit dazzlingly.
Lu Chenfei quickly stood up, and asked cautiously, "What's that place?"
Feng Shi was surprised and said, "Could it be that this is a brand new field transformed by the people behind Smiley Face City?"
Song Yang said in a deep voice: "...Go, go and have a look."
The group of them took the lead and attracted the attention of the rest of the players.
Those players looked at each other in blank dismay, as if they were afraid to step into that mysterious place easily.
But maybe it was because Song Yang and the others took the lead, they quickly summoned up their courage and walked carefully behind them.
Song Yang took out the dagger and held it in his hand.
The moment he stepped into this corridor, and the silver-white dazzling light fell from the top of his head, he realized——
This corridor is not a physical state at all, but a phantom.
The floor of the corridor and the surrounding walls are all half blurred.
Reach out, even through walls.
On both sides of this mysterious phantom corridor, there are rooms... prison cells separated by iron railings.
In each cell, there is a person locked up.
Everyone looks lifeless.
These people didn't seem to perceive Song Yang's intrusion at all, and those who lowered their heads continued to lower their heads in a daze, and those who were anxious in the cell were still anxious.
Their bodies are also in a semi-virtual state.
"What the hell are these?" Jia Qing was shocked by this scene.
Nobody knows.
Everyone walked in this corridor in a daze.
They watched everyone in every cell warily.
There are young people, middle-aged people, and old people.
There are women and there are men.
"These people look like 'players'," Bian Ya said softly, "but obviously, they are not 'players' at this point in time."
These "players" in the phantom state appear here, as if Smile City is playing a certain... past movie.
A premonition suddenly appeared in Song Yang's heart.
He started to quicken his pace, and his heartbeat also started to quicken.
As he walked, he quickly scanned the left and right sides.
"Hey Brother Yang, walk slowly!" Jia Qing said tremblingly.
Song Yang walked a distance of more than ten meters, and suddenly stopped in his footsteps.
His eyes were firmly fixed on the cell on the right.
There was only a simple bed in the empty cell.
A handsome young man in a white T-shirt and jeans sat on the edge of the bed.
His figure is also in a half blurred state.
The young man leaned back slightly, with his hands resting on the bed behind him, and his beautiful chin was slightly raised.
He looked at the ceiling thoughtfully, as if he was thinking about something.
The legs are crossed, and the toe of the right foot is shaking slightly.
Even though he was in such a weird and depressing environment, the young man didn't seem to have the slightest fear or anxiety.
His posture was casual as if he was sitting in his own home, still humming a certain melody softly in his mouth.
Until a certain moment, he seemed to feel something, stopped humming, and lowered his head.
A pair of beautiful, pitch-black phoenix eyes, looking straight ahead calmly.
Song Yang clenched his hands tightly.
he knows--
He knew that the young man in front of him was just a shadow of the past.
However, at this moment, Song Yang still felt that the eyes of the two of them seemed to meet in the air.
Across this cold iron door.
Across that untouchable river of time.
Song Yang took a step forward and called out in a low voice, "Xia Xia."
In the next second, ear-piercing screams suddenly erupted around the town!
The howling that resounded through the night came from the Washing River that surrounded the town.
Amidst the sound like a dragon chant, water curtains suddenly rose from all directions of the town.
These waters seem to have souls, twisting and changing in the night sky, moaning and wailing.
They poured towards the center of the town with a bang, gathered together in mid-air, and turned into a huge, transparent western dragon!
The dragon twisted its neck, roared to the sky, and swooped down from the main road in the middle of the town!
The huge wings and the airflow brought by the flight shattered and destroyed all the houses on both sides!
The dragon rushed to the front of the main road and swallowed all the ghosts in one gulp—
These ghosts are probably all its bait.
Whenever a human enters this small town, this demon will quietly release a bait in an attempt to reproduce the scene of the complete annihilation of the townspeople and capture the souls of all players.
After being forcibly summoned out of his body, he had to swallow the ghosts back to replenish energy to prepare for battle.
At this moment, its body changed from water to flesh, covered by a layer of skin covered with dragon scales.
This layer of skin was as red as blood, and countless human faces emerged from under it, all of which were shouting and terrified expressions!
The giant dragon circled in the air, aimed at Song Yang and Xia Jing, and swooped towards them.
Facing the strong wind, the two took out their weapons from the space bag.
This dungeon ushered in its final moment.
The uninhabited town that has been silent for several years has been completely turned into ruins.
The ghost disappeared, the house collapsed, Feng Shi, Bian Ya, Jia Qing and Zheng Shu ran out one after another, and joined the battle with Song Yang and Xia Jing.
The dragon danced back and forth in the night, struggling.
That roar after another was like thunder, enough to shatter the entire sky.
After more than 20 minutes.
With a loud "boom", the giant dragon finally fell to the ground slowly, motionless.
Several people were panting, with a lot of blood splattered on their bodies, looking in a panic.
Zheng Shu recovered from the fierce battle, jumped up, and excitedly said: "Solved? We have already solved the main monster? Oh, I seem to feel an option to exit the instance in my mind!"
Jia Qing was speechless: "Brother Yang, so how did this demon get summoned?"
Song Yang briefly explained the whole chain of clues, and the group suddenly realized.
Needless to say, the four-star dungeon is indeed a four-star dungeon. The clues in it are twisted and twisted. If the brain is not fast enough, people will die if they are not careful.
Fortunately, the remaining six of them survived well.
Jia Qing hurriedly said: "Brother Feng and Brother Bian should be fine, right?"
Bian Ya lifted off his clothes that had turned into strips of cloth——
There is a bulge on the side of his left hip bone, like a huge tumor, and one can see that the bulge is still slightly wriggling.
Jia Qing was so frightened that he choked out.
Bian Ya gave him a funny look, and said calmly: "The devil is dead, but Elizabeth's curse still exists."
Feng Shi nodded.
His bat should have been born on the back of the shoulder blade, and he could already clearly feel a swelling and pain there.
The main monster of this dungeon has been eliminated, but the curse cannot be undone, so he and Bian Ya still need to exit the dungeon as soon as possible, otherwise if the bat grows up, their lives will still be in danger.
Song Yang looked back at Xia Jing, and asked in a low voice, "Do you want to take this main monster back?"
"Yes," Xia Jing has already taken out the space bag, and said with a light smile, "It is necessary to have sufficient supplies at special times, isn't it?"
He thought of something, shook the space bag at Bian Ya and Zheng Shu, and asked kindly: "Do you want to divide?"
Zheng Shu looked confused: "Subscription? Subscription for what? Submission of this main monster??"
He was full of question marks.
What can you do if you divide the main monster?
Bian Ya was surprised: "Is there any point in taking the monster's body now? Do you still want to enter the safe house?"
He shook his head and said, "I don't need it, you can take it away. It is mainly due to the two of you that the dungeon can be solved, and the monster props are also yours."
Since Bian Ya said so, Xia Jing is no longer polite.
Together with him, Song Yang divided the giant dragon and put it into several space bags as quickly as possible.
Once they're done, they're ready to exit the instance.
Since Zheng Shu, a newcomer, knew nothing about the current situation outside, Jia Qing said to him: "After you log out of the dungeon later, you will appear in a small room, don't panic, that is called the login room, you push away the login room The door outside is the game hall of Smiley City."
"When you get to the game hall, you have to find a very narrow corridor, and we will wait for you at the entrance of that corridor."
Zheng Shu listened seriously and nodded repeatedly.
On the side, the other four remained silent.
They passed a four-star dungeon without any risk this time, but they stayed in this dungeon for nearly three days, and they didn't know how many hours had passed in the game hall outside.
What happened to those four-star dungeons and those players.
Feng Shi said: "After going out, Xia Jing—"
Xia Jing was in the most special and dangerous situation among them.
Song Yang held Xia Jing's hand, and said in a low voice, "If you can still move freely later, why don't you take the dumpling and come to my personal space together?"
The safe house was about to fall apart, Song Yang really didn't want to let Xia Jing stay in that precarious place.
Xia Jing said, "After we go out, whether you can still use your personal space is still a question."
Feng Zhi was taken aback.
Xia Jing said softly: "Whether we can have time to breathe after we go out is also a question."
Song Yang's eyes darkened.
"So," Xia Jing smiled casually, "Let's talk about everything after we get out."
On the other side, Jia Qing had already explained to Zheng Shu.
Zheng Shu said anxiously: "Why do I feel that the situation in the game hall is more dangerous than in the dungeon..."
Jia Qing encouraged himself and Zheng Shu: "Don't think about it now, after you go out, the soldiers will come and cover you with water and soil!"
After Jia Qing finished speaking, the group fell into silence again.
What will happen to them and what will happen to them.
All these unknowns are waiting for them ahead.
The six exchanged glances with each other.
Song Yang held Xia Jing's hand tightly, and Xia Jing held him back.
Song Yang made up his mind, and said, "Let's quit the instance, and we will meet up immediately when we arrive at the game lobby."
The group nodded and Qi Qi closed their eyes.
The mechanical system sound rang in Xia Jing's mind.
"Congratulations to player Xia Jing for passing the four-star dungeon "The Way to Kill Him"!"
"The full score of the four-star dungeon is 80 points, the player Xia Jing cleared the level and scored 80 points!"
"Player Liu Mingyang is dead, and a total of 218 points will be distributed; player Gao Sheng is dead, and a total of 97 points will be distributed; player Huang Yu is dead, and a total of 65 points will be distributed; player Fu Lan is dead, and a total of 123 points will be allocated."
"The total points to be distributed is 503 points. Player Xia Jing gets one-sixth, which is 83.8 points. After rounding, it is 84 points."
"Player Xia Jing has a total score of 164 points for clearing the level, and the current cumulative score is 1310 points. Please continue to work hard!"
……
Song Yang regained consciousness in the login room.
The soundproofing of the login room was very good, and he couldn't hear any noisy sounds from the game hall in it.
And the quiet atmosphere can mobilize his thoughts at the fastest speed.
He looked at the dungeon selection machine with uniform specifications, his eyes moved, and he spent two points to quickly check the current situation of all dungeons.
The time displayed on the machine had been six hours since they logged into the copy.
In those six hours, the number of replicas has been reduced from 243 to 102.
Most of the remaining 102 dungeons are already in progress, only a dozen or so are not yet full.
Song Yang quickly judged that there should be many players who chose to enter the dungeon in advance.
After all, the feeling of being forced into a dungeon is really unpleasant.
For many players, the only way to enter the four-star dungeon is death, but obviously, they finally decided that even if they die, they must die to make themselves happy.
After grasping the information and knowing it well, Song Yang turned and pushed open the door of the login room.
At this moment, there are many fewer people in the game hall, and most of these people are lying on the ground.
Some of them closed their eyes, and some were in a daze with their eyes open. These should all be people who have just cleared the level from the dungeon, and the mental exhaustion can be seen from their faces.
Song Yang cast his eyes heavily on the large game screen in the front.
The number of online players has also decreased from 2019 before they entered the instance to 742.
Another 1000 or [-] people were missing.
Song Yang turned his head without saying a word, and looked beside him.
Jia Qing and Feng Shi had already walked out of the login room.
They noticed the rapidly declining number of players, and their expressions became a little heavy.
As for Xia Jing's login room, although it had also turned into a red light, the door had not been opened for a long time.
A bad premonition suddenly rose in Song Yang's heart, and his face changed slightly.
He walked over and slammed the door open—
There is no one inside.
This login room is empty!
"Where's Brother Jing?" Jia Qing was stunned.
Feng Shi quickly looked around: "Could it have come out?"
Song Yang said with a sullen face, "It's impossible for him to leave without waiting for us at a time like this."
Xia Jing knew that he would be worried, at such a time, that young man would not joke with him like this.
Song Yang immediately unfolded the small holographic screen and sent a message to Xia Jing.
Then he rushed to the narrow corridor at the corner of Smiling Face City without hesitation.
With his heart beating violently, Song Yang rushed to the end of the corridor as fast as he could. He prayed in his heart that the safe house would still be here, and Xia Jing would still be here.
But what awaited them at the end was the bare wall of the narrow corridor.
Song Yang slammed down the wall heavily and cursed in a low voice.
Jia Qing gasped and said, "Safe House and Brother Jing all, all disappeared?!"
In the next second, there was a "ding" in Song Yang's ear.
He immediately turned on the small holographic screen.
Xia Jing replied to his message: "As soon as I exited the instance, I was forcibly recalled by the safe house. Now the safe house has started to drift, and I can't control the direction of the flow, but there is no other danger for the time being, so don't worry."
Song Yang asked: "Which copy of the safe house has drifted to now, can you identify it?"
Xia Jing: "It's not in any copy, it's in the chaotic zone of Smiling Face City."
Song Yang froze and clenched his teeth.
Xia Jing once mentioned the chaotic zone of Smiling Face City to him.
It was a void, a dark place.
The time flow in that place fluctuates, sometimes as slow as the time flow in the copy, and sometimes faster than the time flow in the game hall.
Judging from the current speed of the conversation between the two of them, the time flow in the chaotic world is similar to that of the game hall at this time, but no one knows how it will change in the future.
Once at that place, Xia Jing couldn't even push open the door of the safe house and go out.
And when the drift of the safe house gets out of control, how long the house will stay in each place is also unknown.
Xia Jing once said that the longest time he stayed in the chaotic zone was more than ten days.
What's the difference between that and being locked up?
Song Yang didn't think it was a coincidence that Xia Jing was sent to the chaotic zone at this time, and it must be the handwriting of Smiling Face City behind it.
Wanting to understand this, his face also became extremely ugly.
Song Yang's brain began to spin rapidly.
Is there any way for him to reach Xia Jing's side immediately?
He quickly thought of—
Using his personal space as a medium, he and Xia Jing can meet each other!
Song Yang immediately took out the space key.
However, he soon discovered that no matter how much he used his thoughts to drive, the door to his personal space never appeared in front of him.
Everything was as Xia Jing expected——
The player's personal space is also unavailable.
Song Yang scratched his hair, took a deep breath, and tried to calm himself down.
Calm down and think of other ways, there must be other ways...
As if he could sense his mood at this time, Xia Jing soon sent another message.
"Song Yang, do you still remember the interspatial bag I gave you?"
Song Yang froze.
"Don't lose your cool, you're always by my side, aren't you?"
Seeing this sentence, Song Yang's throat seemed to be blocked by something, and his chest seemed to be stuffed.
He replied in a vague mood: "...I said I would not leave you a step, that's not what I meant."
Xia Jing seemed to be smiling: "Of course I know."
"But there is no other way now, so let's make do with it, Doctor Song."
Thinking of the things in the interspatial bag that Xia Jing gave him, Song Yang closed his eyes.
He took out the interspatial bag and held it tightly in his palm.
This thing connects him and Xia Jing, and it is also a very important thing for Xia Jing at the critical moment...
Song Yang exhaled slowly and finally calmed down.
He asked: "Do you think it is safe to communicate through the small holographic screen now?"
Xia Jing quickly gave him the answer: "It's not safe."
The small holographic screen is a product of Smiley City.
Admittedly, all the tools they use in this place now are products of Smiley City.
However, the small holographic screen can transmit information. Once the smiling face city is completely controlled and the channel for information exchange is mastered, it will no longer be safe for them to talk about anything.
Xia Jing: "So, let's not talk for now, and wait for a turning point."
Song Yang: "If an accident happens, remember to act according to the plan you once said."
Xia Jing: "I know."
Xia Jing: "See you later, Song Yang."
Song Yang stared at these five words, but did not move for a long time.
At the side, Feng Shi and Jia Qing looked at his expression and hesitated, "...What does Xia Jing say?"
Song Yang's Adam's apple rolled down.
He turned off the small holographic screen, and said in a low voice: "He's fine for now. Let's go, let's go back to the game hall first."
……
All players have discovered that their exit from Smile City has been closed.
At this moment it is 09:30 on a Monday night in the real world.
They are all trapped in this strange world.
Song Yang and the others bumped into Zheng Shu who was looking for a way in a daze at the entrance of the corridor, and then they quickly contacted Bian Ya and Lu Chenfei.
——Lu Chenfei also just came out of the four-star dungeon.
A group of people stood in the game hall, looking up at the huge holographic screen in front of them.
The number of copies and the number of players are constantly decreasing.
They watched those numbers beating again and again with their own eyes, as if they could see fresh lives disappearing before their eyes.
Lu Chenfei cursed in a low voice: "You dog, don't let me catch you."
About an hour later, Fei Shengxiao and Li Mian appeared in front of them with two other girls.
Another hour later, You Ye found them, and panting, "It's really disgusting. Do you know, it seems that all Smile City players have been forcibly recalled to Smile City."
Lu Chenfei said with a sullen face: "That's why these four-star dungeons are filled up so quickly."
Everyone doesn't want to be mentally tortured anymore.
They want a final decision.
Of course, there will always be a small number of people who are unwilling to enter the four-star dungeon.
They expected that maybe the four-star dungeon would be cleared before their time limit expired, and then maybe they would be able to escape.
They are taking chances.
Some people despise them, while others choose to manage themselves and keep silent about other people's choices.
Either way, they seem to be coming to an end.
……
The four-star copies were closed one by one.
A large number of players died, and many players returned to the game lobby one after another.
The number of people in the game hall began to increase again.
Among the low voices of discussion and chaotic figures, they saw Chai Feng with a sullen expression on his face, Wang Yueran who was in despair, Liu Yi who was sitting on the ground exhausted, Sha Yu and Yang Leliu who were always moving together, and saw The pale-faced Gu Chen and Gu Xing brothers and sisters.
Seeing them, Sun Qianqian hurriedly ran towards them and said in a low voice, "Something strange happened in the four-star dungeon I entered just now. An uncle suddenly yelled something into the air shortly after the dungeon started. I was willing to pay, let me out, and he just disappeared."
Lu Chenfei said: "Then he never appeared again?"
Sun Qianqian nodded.
Feng Shi frowned and said, "We have analyzed before that Smiling Face City may have something to do with some dignitaries. It seems that they have already started some kind of experiment in the four-star dungeon."
Lu Chenfei sneered, "Then what are we players, little mice?"
Song Yang didn't speak.
He clenched the space bag in his hand, folded his arms silently and stared at the big holographic screen in front of him.
Time passed by minute by minute.
Another hour later, Tang Yi went through the crowd and found them.
He glanced across a group of people and asked suspiciously, "Is Brother Xia not there?"
No one can answer this question.
Those in the know kept silent.
……
Jia Qing said with a bitter face: "We won't be inseparable from Smiley City until tomorrow, right? What about the school? We can't be missing persons?"
Youye thought thoughtfully: "I don't know if the people who died in this wave have returned to the real world. If they do, they will have to die again. So many deaths and disappearances in a short period of time should cause a lot of trouble. Some social attention is just right."
"But putting thousands of people in the real world can easily be diluted by the huge population," Bian Ya said softly, "Whether it will attract attention or not is still unknown."
Feng Shi said: "There are special departments related to supernatural powers in the real world, I think they won't be unaware of this incident."
Having said that, everyone was silent again.
Even if the special department discovers the existence of Smiling Face City, can they save them from the fire?
Maybe it's over before they actually get into action.
Song Yang glanced at the time.
It was almost three o'clock in the morning on Tuesday.
The number of copies has been reduced to 11, and the number of online players has dropped to 219.
The movement of these two numbers also began to become more and more slow.
After 10 minutes, the number of copies dropped to 10, and the number of players dropped to 209.
Jia Qing sniffed - this is probably another copy of All Destroyer.
After another 10 minutes, the number of copies dropped to 8, and the number of players dropped to 193.
The doors of the four login rooms were opened, and the four players staggered out, sat on the ground, took deep breaths, and experienced the feeling of being alive.
The two dazzling numbers on the large holographic screen turned into tortoise crawling.
Gradually, the game hall became quiet.
Everyone sat or stood, all silently waiting for the two numbers to finally stop changing.
And that must be the moment when the number of replicas becomes 0.
……
04:30am.
Song Yang took a step forward involuntarily.
Someone exclaimed: "It's changed to zero!"
Suddenly, the entire game hall became noisy.
"There are 119 people left, grass, how many people have died!" someone cried.
"It's cleared, so I don't need to enter the dungeon?! Hahaha, I don't need to enter the dungeon!" Someone jumped up.
"So what's going to happen next?" Someone looked around vigilantly.
Unknowingly, Song Yang and his group approached each other silently, back to back.
This is a tacit understanding.
Intuition told them that the next step might be the highlight.
Each of them focused on one direction, vigilantly observed the slightest change in the surroundings, held their breath, and waited for the unknown to come.
About 5 minutes later...
At a certain moment, everyone in the game lobby felt as if they had been slapped in the face!
Buzz--
Dull pain in the brain, violent vision shaking, and ghosting.
There was buzzing in the ears, and for a while, I couldn't hear any other sounds.
Some people couldn't even stand still and fell straight to the ground.
The game hall suddenly fell into chaos, and many people shouted in panic.
Song Yang stabilized his body, clenched the space bag in his hand, and shouted to the others: "Are you all right?!"
Lu Chenfei gritted his teeth and said, "I'm fine!"
Li Mian and Fei Shengxiao also shouted: "It's okay!"
Jia Qing tremblingly said: "What's the matter, what happened?!"
Zheng Shu: "I feel dizzy——"
In this shaking field of vision, Song Yang quickly realized that something was wrong.
It's not that there is something wrong with their bodies, but that Smiley City itself is changing.
The shape of this entire huge space began to collapse, the lines began to distort, and the colors began to become weird.
There seems to be a vortex above the game hall.
All the color blocks and all the lines are twisted together, and they spin and flow into this vortex.
Even the bodies of the players seem to be sucked straight by the vortex!
"What the hell does Smiley City want to do?!"
"Is it going to kill all our remaining players!"
Many people subconsciously took out props from the space bag.
However, except for the non-offensive props such as the human skin mask, other monster props cannot be displayed in the game hall at all.
As for swords and daggers, what use are these things at this moment?
They don't even know where the "enemy" is!
Song Yang asked Lu Chenfei and the others to hold each other to fix the relative position.
They gritted their teeth and persisted.
And this hell-like twisting and shaking lasted for a full minute, and suddenly, the vortex above the game hall released everything again.
It's like in a tug-of-war, they were about to be pulled by the other side with brute force, but the other side suddenly let go of the rope at this moment!
This time, everyone followed this mysterious force and fell to the ground!
Dizziness is gone, tinnitus is gone.
The field of vision no longer shakes, and everything is clearly visible again.
The game hall seems to have returned to its normal appearance, all the color blocks, lines, and all spaces have returned to their original positions.
--wrong.
The moment Song Yang raised his head, he froze there.
Afterwards, the entire game hall fell silent for an instant.
……
The large holographic screen at the front suddenly disappeared.
Instead, there is a deep corridor.
A lamp was lit every few steps on the ceiling of the corridor, and the sufficient silver-white light illuminated the area a bit dazzlingly.
Lu Chenfei quickly stood up, and asked cautiously, "What's that place?"
Feng Shi was surprised and said, "Could it be that this is a brand new field transformed by the people behind Smiley Face City?"
Song Yang said in a deep voice: "...Go, go and have a look."
The group of them took the lead and attracted the attention of the rest of the players.
Those players looked at each other in blank dismay, as if they were afraid to step into that mysterious place easily.
But maybe it was because Song Yang and the others took the lead, they quickly summoned up their courage and walked carefully behind them.
Song Yang took out the dagger and held it in his hand.
The moment he stepped into this corridor, and the silver-white dazzling light fell from the top of his head, he realized——
This corridor is not a physical state at all, but a phantom.
The floor of the corridor and the surrounding walls are all half blurred.
Reach out, even through walls.
On both sides of this mysterious phantom corridor, there are rooms... prison cells separated by iron railings.
In each cell, there is a person locked up.
Everyone looks lifeless.
These people didn't seem to perceive Song Yang's intrusion at all, and those who lowered their heads continued to lower their heads in a daze, and those who were anxious in the cell were still anxious.
Their bodies are also in a semi-virtual state.
"What the hell are these?" Jia Qing was shocked by this scene.
Nobody knows.
Everyone walked in this corridor in a daze.
They watched everyone in every cell warily.
There are young people, middle-aged people, and old people.
There are women and there are men.
"These people look like 'players'," Bian Ya said softly, "but obviously, they are not 'players' at this point in time."
These "players" in the phantom state appear here, as if Smile City is playing a certain... past movie.
A premonition suddenly appeared in Song Yang's heart.
He started to quicken his pace, and his heartbeat also started to quicken.
As he walked, he quickly scanned the left and right sides.
"Hey Brother Yang, walk slowly!" Jia Qing said tremblingly.
Song Yang walked a distance of more than ten meters, and suddenly stopped in his footsteps.
His eyes were firmly fixed on the cell on the right.
There was only a simple bed in the empty cell.
A handsome young man in a white T-shirt and jeans sat on the edge of the bed.
His figure is also in a half blurred state.
The young man leaned back slightly, with his hands resting on the bed behind him, and his beautiful chin was slightly raised.
He looked at the ceiling thoughtfully, as if he was thinking about something.
The legs are crossed, and the toe of the right foot is shaking slightly.
Even though he was in such a weird and depressing environment, the young man didn't seem to have the slightest fear or anxiety.
His posture was casual as if he was sitting in his own home, still humming a certain melody softly in his mouth.
Until a certain moment, he seemed to feel something, stopped humming, and lowered his head.
A pair of beautiful, pitch-black phoenix eyes, looking straight ahead calmly.
Song Yang clenched his hands tightly.
he knows--
He knew that the young man in front of him was just a shadow of the past.
However, at this moment, Song Yang still felt that the eyes of the two of them seemed to meet in the air.
Across this cold iron door.
Across that untouchable river of time.
Song Yang took a step forward and called out in a low voice, "Xia Xia."
