Chapter 53: Knocking on the Door: Where is my door? ? (Please read it later, the third update)
Bai Wan and the painter were both stunned for a moment. Before the painter could react, Bai Wan quickly closed the door.
"Phew... luckily I was quick." Bai Wan was extremely grateful. If this terrifying painter had been allowed to escape, it would have been a difficult situation even with the two captains there.
Luo Yimeng and Zhao Jie were both stunned for several seconds.
Roy Meng: “???”
Zhao Jie: “???”
"Was there something in there just now?" Roy Meng couldn't help rubbing his eyes.
Bai Wan shook his head firmly and said, "No, nothing."
Luo Yimeng opened his mouth slightly and said uncertainly: "But just now I seemed to see a very fierce person drawing in there..."
"I think I saw it too...that look was so scary..." Zhao Jie was a little confused.
Bai Wan couldn't help but sweat on his face and said, "Hey, you guys have been fighting against weird things for years, and you have psychological pressure. It's normal to have illusions. There are no painters in the headquarters."
After hearing this, Luo Yimeng also fell into doubt.
That’s right. Where did the painters come from in the headquarters? Are they hallucinating?
Roy Meng opened the door and saw a normal headquarters corridor behind it, and there was indeed nothing there.
"Forget it, let's go... Maybe I've been under too much pressure recently." Luo Yimeng rubbed her head. It seemed that she needed to rest. However, despite saying so, she was still mentally alert. I wonder if there would be any terrible and weird invasion...
Luo Yimeng and Zhao Jie brought Bai Wan to a very empty room.
There was only a table inside with a purple box on it.
Bai Wan felt a strange vibration from the box. This box might not be simple.
Luo Yimeng smiled and said, "This is the test site for the first level. It mainly tests observation and analysis skills. In order to protect the secrets of the hunters themselves, there is no monitoring. Xiaojie and I have also signed a confidentiality agreement, so I will not reveal any of your secrets.
"The weirdness in the test is controlled by us through special means. If there is any danger, we will immediately control the weirdness. Please feel free to test it."
Bai Wan nodded.
"Okay, you turn on the hunting mode first. Only after it is turned on can you deal with the weirdness in reality." Roy Meng said.
Bai Wan nodded, and as Roy Meng said, he turned on the hunting mode in the game system.
Wow!
After clicking to start hunting mode, an invisible field enveloped the entire headquarters.
The system prompt also came:
[The player's 'family' turns on the hunting mode. The temporary bug skills you purchased and retained can be used immediately in the hunting mode without waiting to unlock them. However, the use of weird props still consumes weird coins. The weirdness encountered in the hunting mode is irrelevant to this system. It will no longer suppress the weirdness and provide no definite way out. Please try to analyze the weirdness killing pattern and try to survive. Good luck. ]
This is the first time Bai Wan has entered hunting mode.
What surprised him was that the temporary bug skills he retained could be used immediately, which was a good thing.
"Your hunting mode has been successfully activated, so shall we start testing it now?" Roy Meng asked Bai Wan for his opinion.
"can."
"Okay, let's countdown. It will start in ten seconds. The goal of the first level is to successfully escape from the room under the strange attack." After saying this, Roy Meng stood in the corner of the room, pressed the stopwatch, and started the countdown.
Ten seconds later, the test officially began.
At the same time, there was a knock on the door of the room.
Boom boom boom!
There was a regular knock on the door.
The knocking sound was very mechanical, as if a robot was knocking on the door at a fixed time and place.
Feeling the coldness outside the door, Bai Wan immediately realized that there was a strange creature knocking on the door.
Then, Bai Wan keenly observed that a spider that was originally crawling on the ground suddenly stopped moving and fell to the ground and died.
After observing for a second, Bai Wan walked to the table again and opened the purple box on it. The things inside surprised Bai Wan.
Inside the box was a piece of paper covered with words and an arm.
The arm was dark blue in color, and there was a faint chill emanating from it.
This is a weird arm.
Bai Wan picked up the dark blue arm and looked at it, then picked up the paper and started reading.
The story above tells of an earthquake in a city. A man was trapped in the rubble and unable to get out. He waited for a rescue team to come to his rescue, but because they could not locate him, the rescue team was only a little bit away from the man, but they missed him. The man frantically knocked on the nearby door, but the sound was too loud to be heard. Eventually, the man was buried alive in despair.
A month later, news came from time to time that at night, a one-armed man would knock on the doors of other residents in other communities within the earthquake range, asking everyone if they had seen his hand that was crushed in the earthquake. All the residents whose doors were knocked on died tragically, and this incident caused a great sensation.
"Knock on the door?" After reading the contents on the paper, Bai Wan made a preliminary guess about the first level of the test. At the same time, Luo Yimeng and Zhao Jie were also secretly observing Bai Wan in the corner.
"Not bad, you are quite calm when encountering something weird, and your psychological quality is good enough." Roy Meng commented in a low voice when he saw Bai Wan looking at the note calmly.
Zhao Jie also nodded in agreement and said, "Indeed, there are quite a few testers who have good talents but poor psychological qualities. When they encounter something strange, they get nervous and sweat profusely. They will definitely not go far. As for the 'family'... what the hell is he doing! "
Before Zhao Jie finished praising him, he yelled "Fuck!" and stared at Bai Wan in amazement as he knocked on the door. His body began to twist...
"He... he is dancing to the ghost?" Luo Yimeng and Zhao Jie were stunned to find that after looking at the paper, the family members seemed to be interested and started dancing to the ghost knocking on the door outside. What's even more amazing is that the dancing rhythm closely follows the knocking frequency of the ghost.
Good fellow, are you using the knock-knock trick as an accompaniment? ?
She couldn't help but ask in confusion: "Should we deduct points from him?"
Zhao Jie hesitated and said, "But he didn't seem to have done anything wrong..."
"But we can't dance in front of something weird..." Roy Meng was a little confused.
Zhao Jie suddenly thought of the four unique S-level captains, and said: "Sister Meng, every powerful hunter has his own unique personality."
"Does that also include dancing to the weird?"
"This... this actually proves that Bai Wan has a strong psychological quality."
Luo Yimeng held the notebook in her hand blankly, not knowing how to record it for a moment. It was true that she had a strong psychological quality, but how should she write it?
Could it be written that the ghost hunter Bai Wan has a strong psychological quality, is not afraid of the ghosts, and opposes their dancing and mockery?
This doesn't sound right...
"Okay, he's stopped going crazy. Let's continue observing."
Seeing Bai Wan dancing and then stopping his provocative behavior with a look of disappointment on his face, Roy Meng couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, fortunately, it seems that there is still some rationality.
If the strongest newcomer in front of her kept jumping, she really didn't know how to record it.
This level actually tests your observation and analytical skills.
Their evaluators had previously placed a lot of crawling spiders in the house, which were relatively small and inconspicuous.
The killing pattern of the knock ghost is to knock on the door and kill people through sound waves.
If the person being tested is careful, he will find that the spiders on the ground are dying one after another.
The death of the spider can be used to infer the killing pattern of the door-knocking ghost, and the small note placed in the box can be inferred to determine the conditions for a successful escape.
The knocker ghost is always looking for your arm, so as long as you open the door and return your arm to it before it knocks on the door, you can pass the test.
And if all the spiders on the ground are consumed and the person being tested has not discovered the strange killing pattern, then the test will be considered a failure. After all, there are no spiders to resist the damage, and the next to die will be the person being tested.
Luo Yimeng and Zhao Jie held pens in their hands, waiting to see Bai Wan's performance.
I wonder what the brain of this most popular mysterious newcomer is like, and whether he can successfully crack this level.
If so, how long will it take?
If you can see through the pattern within one minute, you are considered excellent.
Bai Wan has already spent more than 10 seconds dancing...he doesn't have much time left.
Suddenly, Luo Yimeng saw Bai Wan rushing directly towards the door.
"He actually rushed forward without taking the severed arm..." Roy Meng's eyes couldn't help but flash with regret.
It’s a pity that this most outstanding newcomer was eliminated at the first round.
Although he saw through Gui's killing pattern and rushed out when Gui didn't knock on the door, he ignored the fact that breaking off the arm was the way to survive.
The test is over and I failed.
Just as Luo Yimeng was about to start writing in his notebook, he saw Bai Wan quickly walk to the door and then skillfully wipe the wall.
Then, under the stunned eyes of Luo Yimeng and Zhao Jie, the door that had been intact suddenly turned into a wall.
Boom!
Suddenly, there was a muffled sound from the other side of the wall, followed by the sound of bones breaking...
Then the so-called knocking trick fell silent.
The whole place fell silent.
There is also the fourth chapter tonight. I have to write for a while after dinner before posting it. Thank you for reading.
