"Ahh

In the basement, Shi Li was so cold that she sneezed.

[Allison Smith will make a listening decision.] 】

[Once you fail once, you will be judged again after 10 minutes until you succeed]

[Alison Smith listens to the 79/72 test fails]

[Alison Smith listens to the test 84/72 and fails]

[Alison Smith Listening Test 93/72 Fails]

Bai Shaobao didn't know what was going on, so he let her wait here for nearly half an hour. Does he want to make a dress from scratch?

The dark underground garage was getting colder and colder, and there was no longer a single figure to be seen.

[Alison Smith listened to the test 47/72 success]

Faintly, Shi Li heard the sound of hundreds of rats crawling at the same time; But mixed with that voice, there was a faint cry of soprano.

【SC0/1】

[Alison Smith sanity test 75/41 failed]

[SAN-1, current sanity 40]

…… Shi Li felt even colder.

"Where did it come from?"

She headed to the deepest part of the garage. There was a door, which she had thought was the building's substation or something, but when she got closer, she realized that it was a heavy, gold-framed, classic dark wooden door.

The door was open.

When Shi Li stood in front of the door, the strange voice disappeared. She hesitated for a few seconds, then reached out and grabbed the brass doorknob.

…… The door opened.

“…… What. is empty. Shi Li breathed a sigh of relief.

The small room was empty, or rather, almost empty. On the black walls, the glow of the gas lamps flickered on and off, and a few pieces of worn paper were scattered on the floor.

It's just a ubiquitous, abandoned storage room.

[Alison Smith Detection Check 39/63 Success]

No, it's not.

The whole room was filled with the smell of decay. There was a thick layer of dust on the ground, showing that no one had set foot here for a long, long time.

But why is the gaslighting still on?

“…… Why. ”

Shi Li took a few steps forward, carefully examining the gas lamp. The shape of the gas lamp is very simple, as if it blends in with the entire wall.

"Let's wait for Xiaobai to come back." Shi Li was cold.

She turned around and prepared to go out.

The door was ajar, and the dim incandescent light of the parking lot illuminated both sides of the door.

Then Shi Li saw it clearly......

The inside and outside of the door, the brass doorknob.

All are equally covered with a thin layer of gray-green moss.

【SC0/1】

[Alison Smith sanity test failed 88/40]

[SAN-1, current sanity 39]

"How could it be. I didn't—"

Shi Li suddenly felt some itching in her right hand. She raised her hand in confusion, and she saw it clearly in the flickering light of the gas lamp.

The right hand she had just used to open the door was covered with the same green "moss" as the doorknob, and those "moss" were growing slowly upward, and Shi Li could even see the tiny mushrooms drilled out between her fingernails.

【SC1/1D3】

[Alison Smith sanity test 7/39 success]

[SAN-1, current sanity 38]

"Just kidding—"

[Alison Smith listened to the test 34/72 success]

Shi Li suddenly heard the door creaking.

The air seemed to freeze, but the door slowly closed as if pushed by an invisible hand.

"Wait......"

[Alison Smith Agility Test 100/60 Big Failure]

Shi Li flew towards the door, but the door closed much faster than she did.

With a thud—Shi Li slammed headfirst against the wooden door—she felt as if she had hit a rock.

【Damage Dice 1D3=2】

[HP-2, current HP7]

"It hurts so much......"

The forehead seemed to be broken. But what's worse is ......

The door won't open. He seems to be locked up in his room.

【SC0/1】

[Alison Smith sanity test failed 72/38]

[SAN-1, current remaining sanity 37]

"Liar. Feed! ”

The gas light flickered for a moment, then went out. Shi Li was completely submerged in darkness.

"Mobile phone!"

Shi Li sincerely thanked the convenience of modern technology, she took out her mobile phone with her left hand and turned on the screen.

“……！”

On the ground, the worn paper was gone.

Instead, dozens of half-rotting skins of dead rats were spread out, covering every corner of the dilapidated room floor except where Shi Li stood.

Fresh blood was oozing from under the skin. Bloody air rushed in his face.

【SC1/1D4】

[Alison Smith sanity test failed 70/37]

【1D4=1】

[SAN-1, current remaining sanity 36]

[Allison Smith has accumulated losses of 20% sanity in one day]

Shi Li's eyes went black, and the phone slipped from between her palms and fell to the ground.

Then she couldn't see anything, she couldn't hear anything.

Even she, who prides herself on being strong, is close to collapse at the moment.

"Woooooooooo......oo Who's going to save me......" She didn't even have the strength to hammer the door, just leaned against the door panel and whimpered.

……

"Shi Li?" Bai Shaobao, who returned to the same place, found that Shi Li was gone.

[Bai Shaobao will make a hearing judgment.] 】

[Once you fail once, you will be judged again after 10 minutes until you succeed]

[Bai Shaobao listened to the 89/61 test failed]

[Bai Shaobao listened to the test 29/61 successfully]

"Shi Li!"

Bai Shaobao heard the cry behind the wooden door.

"Damn! Why run around! ”

With all the strength of his body, Bai Shaobao began to bang on the door. Shi Li must have been locked in the back, and if she couldn't open it, she would use a gun to break the door lock......

But out of Bai Shaobao's surprise, the door naturally opened. Shi Li fell to the ground, blood oozing from her forehead, and she whimpered like a child.

Bai Shaobao looked at the room-

The white walls, the unlit lamp heads, and a few blank sheets of paper scattered on the concrete floor, except for the stale smell of the air, were just a discarded storage room.

"What's wrong with you?" Bai Shaobao looked at Shi Li suspiciously.

Not to mention that the door is not locked at all, but it is locked in the storage room, which can scare Shi Li like this?

……

"Here we go."

Hearing the prompts accumulated by the rational pool from the system, Chen Qiang understood that the climax of the game was coming.

"Now we're going to be among the players," Hideki Yoshikawa's voice filled with unconcealed excitement, "to choose someone who will be the first person in the world to try out Curse of the Hanged King." ”

His gaze swept over the many excited fans. A lot of people are eager to try it.

Only Xiao Tu and Sister Qiu were pale.

"Sister Qiu, what should I do?" Xiao Tu asked timidly.

"I don't know ...... either," Sister Qiu desperately urged her stagnant brain.

And ahead, Hideki Yoshikawa continues to mobilize the emotions of fans.

"Tell you in advance, this is not a joyful game, but a pure journey of suffering."

The enthusiasm of the fans has increased. Sister Qiu and Xiao Tu saw that the staff had pulled out a brand-new white Four Princesses, and the game was ready.

"Hmm......" Hideki Yoshikawa hesitated for a moment and turned to Chen Qiang.

"Jun Chen," he said, "to celebrate your return to me and Sayoko, it's up to you to decide who will play the demo game." ”

"Are you sure?"

"Of course." Hideki Yoshikawa's words are sincere.

“…… All right. Chen Qiang didn't do too much humility.

He pointed to one of the female players present.

"That's it," he said gracefully, "beautiful lady." ”

Following Chen Qiang's fingers, everyone in the audience focused on that person.

"Me?" found that she had become the focus of attention of the audience, and Sister Qiu looked confused.
