Chapter 5: The Masquerade

After spinning through the staircase, you can faintly hear a cacophony coming from upstairs, which seems to be mixed with an eerie musical melody.

The six of them whispered and discussed, regretting that there was no roast goose in their hands, where to find such a good substitute for the dead ghost.

The group was afraid of making a noise, so they almost crawled to the end of the stairs, and before they could probe, they rushed into a daze in the loud noise.

"The worst bar is a hundred times quieter than here. Amber covered his ears and muttered a whisper.

Correll glanced back at him viciously, raising his index finger in a silent motion.

The entrance to the second floor was just ahead, and Arei first stretched out his axe, but there was no response, and then he swung it vigorously, but there was still no response. He simply threw the axe directly through the entrance, and immediately retracted into the stairs, until the sound of the heavy axe came back, and nothing happened.

At this time, Dainqi had an idea, he gently patted the frame behind Amber, and said in a low voice:

"Perhaps, we can ask about the magic of oil paintings. ”

"I don't think they're going to tell the truth. Cathy patted her chest with trepidation.

"If we do that, we might be able to help them come to terms with reality...... "Corell pulled a candle from the wall.

Yalei nodded, walked under the bust of a middle-aged man, stretched out two fingers, and made a fierce expression:

"What's on it?"

The middle-aged man in the painting showed a look of fear, hesitated and did not dare to speak, until Corell held the candle aside, and then shuddered and screamed:

"Prom!

"What a prom, let's be clear. Jarre hurriedly asked, as Correll shook the candle in his hand.

The man in the painting jumps up and down in fright, as if he is mentally hindered, and can only keep screaming the words "prom".

Correll strode forward, setting the frame on fire without hesitation, and watched coldly as the man in the painting howled and turned to ashes.

Then the two of them walked to another painting......

After asking four questions, they got the same answer, until Cathy prayed to stop Corell, and the rest of the painting was spared doom.

"Don't you think the melody of this music is a little familiar?"

Betty looked down and listened for a moment, then her body suddenly trembled, she raised her pale face, bit her lip and said:

"When my grandfather died, the funeral band played this melody. ”

"It's just a goblin taste!" said Are, as he walked over to Betty and whispered in her ear:

"Don't be afraid, we will definitely go back alive. ”

"Hmm......" Betty's eyes moistened slightly, and she lowered her head and slowly calmed down.

"Ahem. Correll coughed and eased his somewhat awkward atmosphere:

"It's not an option to wait like this, Yalei and I went to explore the way. I'd like to see what's weird. ”

The two of them crawled lightly to the exit, looking left and right.

The dome is a huge chandelier filled with colorful candles that slowly turn in a clockwise direction. The floor is covered with flower petals, and a group of brightly dressed dancers are pacing slowly to the melody of the music, and the smell of alcohol fills the air.

Correll almost thought he was back in the world, at the entrance to a large party, and his previous experiences were delusions.

"Why are these people wearing masks? ”

Ya Lei Xian's group did not react to the appearance of the two, so they spoke boldly.

"Can you be sure they're human?"

Corell also moved his posture recklessly, and even deliberately broke the chair next to him, but the group remained unmoved.

The rest of the people were greeted by Yalei, and Amber couldn't help but ask:

"They can't see us?"

"Try it and you'll find out......" Areley picked up the axe he had thrown earlier, walked over to a dancer in a long dress, and slashed straight at it, stopping only a centimeter from the mask.

"It doesn't seem to be visible. Dainch said, rubbing his chin.

Correll poked under the nostrils of one of the dancers, frowned, and asserted:

"Not humans, they don't even breathe. ”

Boom...... Boom...... Boom, the clock struck three times, as if given some kind of command, and all the dancers stopped moving.

"I have a bad premonition......" Amber said as he felt a chill welling up in his heart, knocking his teeth.

The disgusting mourning ended, and the ballroom fell into an eerie silence, a puff of white smoke erupted from the center of the stage, and with a tooth-sore metal grind, six coffins slowly rose, the lids popped open, and the coffins were empty.

"Hee-hee-hee, congratulations on making it to the second floor, let's play a game. ”

Calendula's voice came from all directions, and this time, she didn't seem to be about to show up:

"There are six coffins here, don't let these dolls climb into them, or they will be resurrected as yours, and the person who is replaced will have to dance and dance until the body and mind rot into mud. ”

As soon as she finished speaking, starting with the conductor of the stage band, all the dancers in the hall rushed to the coffin with a wail as if they had just woken up from a big dream.

"How can I let you succeed!"

Aree threw the axe out and slashed through seven or eight "dancers", and through their broken gaps, the flesh was nearly gone, and the gray and black bones could be seen.

"They're dead! Correll yelled as he rushed to smash several corpses.

Aree wielded the great axe and continuously slashed the skeleton dancer, gasping for breath:

"Corell, you take Betty and Cathy to find the wine and candles, and Amber and I go to guard the coffin!

"Alright, Betty, Cathy, follow me!" Correll rushed to the table with red eyes.

"Amber, Dainch, let's go!" Jarley threw his axe again, shattering a skeleton that was on the verge of crawling into the coffin.

The Skeleton Dancer's combat ability is lackluster, and it is said that it is stronger than the Flower Demon, but it is also limited. They are quick and ignore pain, which is not a big deal. The real pressure they face is the horrible fact that once they climb into the coffin, someone will die on their side.

A skeleton dancer dragged half of his body into the coffin, and was about to close the lid when he was dragged out by a large hand.

"Get out of here!" Areley finally took the lead, reached the coffin, and with a sharp tug, tearing it into countless bones.

Dainch dropped his weapon and lunged forward, slamming his body into the skeletons in an attempt to close the coffins one by one.

"Die!" Byrne roared, smashing a skeleton that pounced on Dainch.

The three of them surrounded the coffin, supporting them to prevent any skeleton from entering, but the human body was limited, and the turbulent sea of skeletons seemed endless.
