After climbing up from the ruins, I found a larger warehouse in front of me.

There was a creepy smell from the dilapidated door.

Somehow, it gave me a strange idea: the real third token was inside.

Dragging my injured body, I decided to take a look at it.

Pushing open the heavy warehouse door, a chill came over me with a creaking and grinding sound.

The dim light of the warehouse shone through the dirty windows and onto the floor, creating a dappled shadow.

On the ground in the doorway, there was a crystal ball that shimmered with light.

I frowned and walked forward, feeling uneasy.

One step at a time, to the end.

At the end of the warehouse, a tattered canvas obscured an object.

My heart tightened, and I felt a strong sense of unease.

With trembling hands, I gently lifted the corner of the canvas, and the scene in front of me made me freeze instantly.

It was a dried corpse, with twisted limbs, dark and shriveled skin, and hollow eyes.

Despite the loss of life, it was still recognizable from the outline of the dried corpse, which was ......

"Summer ...... Eye......? ”

I staggered a few steps and covered my face with my hands.

Breathing rapidly, his lips trembled too much to speak, his heart raced, and his whole body trembled.

- Was he teleported here?

- But why did it turn out like this!?

Tears flowed uncontrollably from between your fingers.

"No, no! Why? Why! ”

With a violent tremor, and a dull rumbling sound that grew louder and louder, the walls of the warehouse began to crack and rapidly expand, and the walls began to shake and the massive stones peeled off.

In the next second, the ground suddenly cracked, and a fishy smell came to his face.

A massive shark-like monster emerges from the floor.

The monster opened its bloody mouth, revealing its sharp teeth.

The entire warehouse collapsed instantly.

Before I could react, I was swallowed in one bite.

It felt like my whole body was enveloped in a cold fear.

I couldn't think, my heart was pounding, and the blood in my body seemed to be coagulated.

……

The shark monster, which was tens of meters long, stood on the ruins, roaring with its head held high.

The next moment, the monster's body suddenly began to crack from its back.

The fissure extends from the dorsal back all the way down to the caudal fin.

As the crack widened, a strong blue light burst out from the crack.

In this dazzling light, a giant glowing all over his body slowly emerged from the monster's body.

Her body emitted a soft blue light, dissipating all the poisonous fog for kilometers in the area.

The monster's body was also quickly disintegrated in the light, and finally disappeared.

The giant slowly looked up at the sky.

At this moment, the sky was suddenly torn apart by a strong white light.

A white ray shot down from the sky, and the shot was aimed at the back of the blue giant.

But when the light approached the blue giant, it was instantly disintegrated by her aura.

The blue giant turned to look.

At the source of the rays, there was a giant with red and silver, still high in the distance.

The two looked at each other calmly for a few seconds.

The red and silver giants loomed in the black fog and quickly vanished.

Soon, the blue giant also turned into light particles and disappeared.

……

When I came back to my senses, I was standing in the middle of the ruins.

His eyes lost look and he looked around.

A dark shadow suddenly appeared before my eyes.

This dark shadow is mysterious and hidden.

He bowed deeply to me.

"Thanks to you, the biggest hidden danger here is gone, and I am truly relieved. Thank you, miss. The mystery man said.

"You're behind it?" I approached and said to him.

"That's how you can describe it." He spread his arms.

"Miss, your performance in this game is extraordinary, and as a token of appreciation, you can ask me any questions related to the game, and I will answer them."

I said angrily, "Then hurry up and give me the secret treasure and make a wish, I will resurrect the important person!" ”

"Unfortunately, that can't be." The mystery man shook his head, "The energy of the secret treasure is connected to the 'curse'. Originally, the Secret Treasure could be wished, but now that the 'curse' is gone, the Secret Treasure has lost its existence. ”

"What are you kidding?" I pulled out my gun and shot him in the body, but the bullet went through the chest and the man was fine.

I found his body empty and untouchable.

"And even if you make a wish with the secret treasure, you may not be able to resurrect that important friend." He stared at me.

"What do you mean?"

"Because he is the second keeper of the mansion, the one who brings and maintains the new curse."

"What did you say!" I looked incredulous.

"I might have to tell you more about it.

You remember the rope I gave you. Its function is simple, it is the key to the entrance to the treasure. But if you tie him to something and lose the rope, he will be attacked by the bound object - this is the second curse of the mansion.

Your friend tied the rope to the clock, and when the rope and clock were lost, they were teleported back in time by the clock.

According to the historical records of this mansion, on November 27, 2011, a time-traveler traveled here from another timeline and passed away to take over the duties of the original town keeper.

This time-traveler is him.

Since he was still affected by the second curse after his death, this curse spread throughout the mansion and became a "new curse".

Therefore, he, as a turning point in everything, cannot be resurrected in any way, otherwise history will be changed. ”

My brain was racing, listening in disbelief.

- He is the source of these curses? So...... In the mansion is a crisis......

"You want to tell me that Natsume is the real murderer of this tragedy?"

"Not bad."

"Y-You already knew about it!"

"His body had been kept secret in the mansion for a long time before you arrived, and his curse killed countless contestants who came to challenge him, turning the dead into what you call 'creatures of darkness' and roaming the house forever."

"Even so, you're the culprit! Atonement for me and for them! "I pointed my gun at him.

The mysterious man looked at me sadly and said hoarsely, "Atonement? Haven't I given enough since the day I gave up my strength...... Well, maybe, but unfortunately I didn't have a chance. ”

His body gradually melted, turning into a black solution.

"It's better to worry about yourself than others, after all...... Only the dead can see the creatures that incarnate into themselves. ”

His voice echoed through the ruins, weakening, and finally vanishing.

I calmed down for a moment.

I suddenly remembered that a few days ago, at the mouth of the truck tunnel at the BAES base, I saw a dark creature that mimicked itself.

- Only the dead can see the creatures that incarnate into themselves?

"So...... So ......"

My eyes widened and I raised my hands in horror.

In the faint light, the body looks extremely strange.

"Am I dead?"

A great sorrow welled up in my heart.

An icy sensation spread down the spine.

"In that case...... Who am I now? ”

My brain went blank and I couldn't think about anything anymore.

……

A hazy white mist obscured my vision.

The white mist lifted.

I stood in a forest.

It looks familiar.

It seems to be a fantasy.

A few months ago, I first met Ultraman in this forest.

Maybe the current illusion is a continuation of the previous one.

- Wait, what was I doing? What am I going to do after that?

I was in a trance, as if I had forgotten a lot.

I staggered and walked aimlessly.

Bypassing the trap he had encountered earlier, he walked out of the forest and came to a river.

When you swim into the river, the water that submerges your body suddenly forms a whirlpool.

Suddenly, a huge fish creature emerged from the bottom of the water and swallowed me.

A huge splash jumped on the surface of the water.

I sank into the abyss of darkness.

In this darkness, nothing but endless fear and boundless despair remains.
