Chapter 39: Will and Paper Man vs. Nightmare
Chapter 39: Will and Paper Man vs. Nightmare
Ding--
A crisp sound rang in my ears.
Fu's stiff body regained its ability to move, and the coldness that had imprisoned him disappeared.
Without having time to think about what was going on, the rich guy started to run for his life.
No matter where you run, just get away from this nightmare first, then think about other things.
However, the entire hotel only has three floors, so there is not much room to dodge.
After running for a while, he finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the nightmare did not catch up with him immediately.
Lines of bloody words once again emerged from the walls and the ground and struck his eyes.
[How are you still alive? Why are you still alive???]
[It's useless. Stop struggling. It's better to die soon. ]
[You almost succeeded. You have dealt a heavy blow to Nightmare! ]
【One more time and you can kill it! 】
[You need more courage and confidence. ]
[You will win, believe in yourself! You are the best. ]
……
The rich guy yelled, "Damn it! I believe your ghosts!"
What confidence, what courage.
In the face of endless coldness, this thing is useless.
He finally realized that the bloody words were meant to kill him.
If I didn't have this perfect jade pendant, I would be dead now.
Open your right hand.
An obvious crack had appeared on the originally flat and smooth Wu Shi board.
This is the price I pay to save my life.
The nightmare didn't come after him again, and the rich man felt a little relieved.
"It looks like we are safe for now. Nightmare won't come back for a while."
"But I don't know how many crises this card of peace of mind can help me avoid."
"Maybe if we hold on for a certain period of time, we can get out of this place?"
Apart from these bloody words, is there anything else here that can be considered a clue?
His eyes began to search the surroundings, after careful observation and exploration.
Finally, I noticed that some scraps of cloth among the body parts scattered on the ground turned out to be plot items that could provide hints for the horror game.
[Last Words (plot item, cannot be taken out of the instance): It contains some information about the Black Town. They are correct, but not necessarily useful.]
[Last words: The original name of Black Town was Bright Town. Most of the residents were followers of the Church of Light. Until one day, a group of cultists came to the town. They brought monsters, curses and nightmares to the town. — Unnamed Cultist of Light]
Looking at the information provided by the banner, the rich man finally found the direction to work towards.
"Finding the will cloth containing the key information is the key to survival!"
"I have the card of "Nothing to Do" to protect me, so I have more time than other players."
The rich guy started looking for the suicide note strips at full speed, and soon found several other suicide note strips among the body parts.
[Last Words: If you want to become a devout believer of light, you need to make enough contributions to the church. As long as you donate 1000 copper coins cumulatively, you can get the title of a devout believer of light. ——A diligent and devout believer of light. 】
[Last words: Every night, monsters will start to move in the town. Residents hide in their homes, and the homeless stay in the Rest Inn. However, this does not guarantee absolute safety. - A player who died tragically. ]
[Last words: The townspeople were guided that the source of all the disasters came from a strange dream. The Rest Hotel had a passage connecting to the strange dream. The church elites entered the dream one after another, wanting to end everything, but they all got lost in the dream. —A church elite.]
[Last words: Anyone who tries to escape from this town will be doomed! —An unknown cultist.]
……
The rich guy found some will cloth strips.
The information recorded above gave him a better understanding of the situation in this copy.
But the sad thing is that this can't help him escape from the current crisis.
How lucky do you have to be to get a piece of cloth that contains the key information?
Black mist seeps out from the wall again. The nightmare comes again!
So fast?
The rich guy's pupils shrank suddenly, he turned around and started to run away.
Unfortunately, this time the nightmare condensed faster and moved faster than last time. He could no longer outrun the nightmare!
Soon, he was caught up by the nightmare again.
Suffocating, cold, desperate...
He once again felt the edge of death.
Ding--
The familiar crisp sound rang out again, and the emerald peace plate pulled him back from the brink of death again.
This time, the rich guy didn't rush to escape. He saw the nightmare seep into the floor and disappear before his eyes.
He hurriedly checked the jade piece, and found a longer and more obvious crack on it.
How many times can you block it?
The rich guys felt a mountain of pressure and a suffocating sense of crisis.
While searching for the suicide note, he wondered if there was any other way out.
He found two more pieces of cloth.
Unfortunately, the information recorded above still did not contain what he expected.
Calculating the time interval, it's almost time for the nightmare to appear again.
This makes the rich guy even more anxious and impatient.
He scratched his head desperately: "Damn it, it's coming again! Where is the way out? "
bang bang bang-
There was a sound of heavy objects colliding.
The sound was particularly harsh in the quiet hotel.
What is this sound?
The rich guy was startled and realized that things might be turning around.
Listening carefully, the sound seemed to come from the room at the end of the second floor.
It seems like something is fighting with each other!
A look of surprise appeared on his face. "Is it a nightmare? Is there anyone in this hotel who can fight against nightmares?"
He remembered that the room was very special and was locked with a special lock.
They also wanted to ask the thief to unlock the door and enter the room to have a look, but the thief was too timid to do it.
The rich man tightly grasped the jade card and made up his mind: "I must go over there and take a look. Maybe there is a chance for me to survive!"
The Wu Shi card has not been broken yet, so there is still room for error.
After making up his mind, the rich guy quickly walked to the second floor.
As soon as he reached the second floor, he saw a paper man being thrown out of the room and hitting the wall.
Then he straightened himself up and rushed into the room again.
Is this paper man fighting the nightmare?
Why does this paper figure look so familiar?
He quickly remembered what happened during dinner.
This kind of paper figure was placed on the paper coffin that the game otaku and the good guy carried into the hotel.
"Isn't this the paper figurine that the game geek and the good guys bought from the hotel?"
"Why are they here?"
"Could it be that the two of them knew that something like this would happen, so they made arrangements in advance?"
If that's the case, these two people are too strong, simply unfathomable!
"I have to go check it out!"
The rich man gritted his teeth and overcame his fear of fighting the paper man and the nightmare.
Following the wall of the corridor, I moved slowly towards the room at the end.
