"It's so strange. There's no one on the third floor. Haven't the two of them come out of that dice rule yet?"
The female social worker was the first to step into the corridor on the third floor. She stood at the top of the stairs, looking around, and said curiously.
Hearing this, the female reporter in the stairwell recovered from her previous daze and stepped up the steps. The marbles she held in her hand kept rolling in her palms and were gently caressed by her fingertips.
"There may be a phase space in this place. They should be in a different space from us now, just like you experienced a similar experience after entering the rules of that painting." The female reporter explained casually.
"In that case, are we really outside the rules now?" The girl looked at her and said seriously: "Aren't we within the rules of another game?"
"..."
The female reporter looked slightly stiff.
Before, after realizing what the young man in black meant, she had actually been thinking about it.
If they really left the rules, logically speaking, the Qiming Building they saw before they entered should still be what they saw after they came out.
That was the moment she touched the rules on the third floor.
However, Rule 15 of the "Qiming Shantang Visiting Manual" only says what not to do, but does not say what will happen if the rules are violated or what to do next.
Therefore, it is not impossible for the third floor to return to normal.
But the black and white dice incident made the female reporter understand another problem - the old rules have changed.
Therefore, this situation can easily create a sense of illusion for people trapped in the rules of the orphanage, making it difficult for people to truly understand their current situation.
Are they still trapped within the rules, or have they broken away?
How do you know if you are within the new rules?
It's really hard to tell.
"Sister, what's wrong with you?"
At this time, it seemed that he noticed that the female reporter's face was not very good. The social worker stepped forward to ask with concern and looked at her with a worried look.
The female reporter waved her hand: "It's nothing. I was just thinking that you are right. That's why we have to be more careful. If we accidentally trigger any rule conditions, we may fall into passivity."
The female social worker listened and nodded obediently: "Yeah! I won't run around, I will follow you!"
Hearing this, the female reporter looked slightly strange.
But she didn't say anything else. She stood in the middle of the corridor and looked around. The first room in the right corridor near the stairway had a room number and a parallel room name on it.
[307 Nursery Room].
"Just stand here and don't move." The female reporter turned around and said.
"Yeah." The social worker nodded obediently.
The female reporter walked towards the corridor on the right. When she walked to the back door of the second room, she saw the sign [306] above.
But there was only a room number but no name. There was a secondary window on the door that was the same color as the blue floor. She stood on tiptoes close to the door and tried to see what kind of room it was through the secondary window.
However, as soon as she raised her eyes to the window, she looked into a pair of dead eyes with black sclera and brown pupils.
Those eyes occupied half of the secondary window, staring straight at her.
Wow——!
The female reporter suddenly backed away, staring at the door with a horrified expression. At that moment, her left hand holding the marble was guarded against her chest.
"Sister? What's wrong with you?!"
Immediately afterwards, the worried voice of the female social worker came from not far away.
"I'm fine..." the female reporter responded subconsciously.
Her frightened heart continued to beat loudly, her breathing became rapid, and her chest rose and fell violently for a while before it slowed down.
Looking at the motionless room No. 306 in front of her, the female reporter did not approach the door again, but quickly turned around and left the corridor.
Seeing the female social worker looking at her with worry, the female reporter whispered: "This should be the children's dormitory of the orphanage, and the archives is probably on the other side. Let's go there to check first."
"good."
The female social worker still nodded in agreement, but just when she was about to turn around, her body suddenly stiffened, and she stared at the position behind the female reporter with a nervous and frightened face.
Seeing her sudden change in expression, the female reporter also stiffened: "What...what's wrong?"
The female social worker moved slightly closer to her. Her right hand, which was blocked by their bodies, pointed crazily behind her and winked.
This expression clearly meant that there was something behind her.
It really looks like an unexpected scene in a horror movie.
The female reporter slowly turned her head and moved her eyes back bit by bit. Then she saw a girl standing at the back door of Room 306 a few meters away.
The girl is about nine years old. She has dark brown curly hair tied into twin tails. She is wearing a blue nun's uniform and black lace around her neck and both wrists. She has an intellectual and elegant temperament and looks like a medieval noblewoman.
However, the black sclera in her eyes, which were obviously different from those of normal humans, made her look weird.
After all, normal people have white eyes, but they have dark eyes.
They say the eyes are the windows to the soul...
"Hello."
Just as the female reporter was cursing in her heart, the little girl opposite curled her lips and greeted them with a smile.
Her voice is low and slow, spreading slowly like turbulent water waves, with a few vibratos constantly echoing in the listener's mind, making people feel like they are falling into the deep sea.
The female reporter was slightly startled.
Tolerant and vast, the blue water flows past...
She felt like a free little fish, surrounded by a huge and vast sea, swimming gently, silently and deathly through the ripples of the water.
she is……
Suddenly, the soft flesh around her waist was twisted hard without any trace by the person next to her!
"!!!"
The female reporter was jolted by the pain and came back to her senses. She gritted her teeth and stared at the little girl opposite with great vigilance: "Who are you?"
"who I am?"
The girl tilted her head and repeated her question.
Then the smile on her face widened: "My name is Lina, but am I really Lina?
"Whoever you see is who I should be.
"Whatever you see is what I should be.
"So now, what do you see about me?"
The girl's voice was still very nice, and the female reporter couldn't help but reply: "You are Lina."
"Yes, I am Lina. What about the person next to you? Who is she?"
"she is……"
The female reporter turned back subconsciously, but the next moment she jumped back in surprise, and hit the wall in fear. She didn't even make a move to take out a weapon to resist!
In her sight, the person next to her was not a female social worker at all!
Thick black substance climbed on it, and scattered on the ground was a pool of intertwined black tentacles. The shape of the head was incomprehensible, and the eyes were two blood-red beads that were moving randomly. It was a bloated, evil, and twisted mess. It's its true nature!
nausea!
nausea! nausea!
The monster opened its huge mouth, opening and closing it up and down, as if it was talking.
But the accompanying voices were noisy and sharp, like a sharp knife, piercing the female reporter's mind!
She couldn't help but cover her ears, trying to block her hearing, but the chaotic and incomprehensible sound rang directly in her head and soul.
She shook her head vigorously, showing pain.
At this moment, a voice that could not distinguish gender, age, or emotion, but was extremely clear and gentle, broke through the noise and rang intermittently in the ears.
"Sister...you...calm down...don't be...affected by her..."
"I...monster...calm down..."
"calm……"
"calm……"
This voice that was different from the chaos was getting clearer and more pleasant to the ears. It seemed to cleanse her soul, and her painful and depressed emotions were swept away.
The female reporter came back to her senses in a daze. Her eyes were straight and she was panting as she looked at the monster in front of her.
She saw the monster attack her.
And she was holding a weapon in her hand——
The next moment, the female reporter stuffed the marbles in her hand into her mouth and swallowed them with lightning speed!
"puff!"
The marbles exploded in her stomach, forming blue arcs of electricity that wreaked havoc on the withered flesh and blood. The electric light spread along the blood vessels, wrapped around the heart, and then went straight to the brain!
The female reporter suddenly woke up.
The monster in front of him disappeared, and the female social worker with a normal posture had an unclear expression, and her emotionless eyes were staring at her.
"I……"
The female reporter gasped tremblingly and quickly explained her current situation: "I'm fine."
After the words fell, the female social worker showed a relieved expression.
"Sister, you scared me to death just now, and you actually wanted to attack me!"
"sorry……"
The female reporter clenched her fists. After feeling her body's strength return, she stood up straight again and quickly glanced at the little girl not far away.
The other party still had an elegant smile on his face, looking particularly harmless.
But she has already witnessed how terrifying this girl is. Just a sound can actually make her lose her mind!
Worthy of being a monster in an advanced book!
Could it be that he is actually the big boss?
Even if not, in this situation, the female reporter still hopes that the other party can be a big boss, otherwise this script will be too difficult.
We were only on the second floor now, and in less than ten minutes, the six people they came in were already in trouble!
The female reporter looked there with fear, but did not dare to look at her again.
"How about it, do you see clearly who she is now?" Lina said with a smile.
"She is my companion, what's the problem?" The female reporter responded expressionlessly and continued to take out marbles in her hand.
Lina smiled and was not angry.
She turned to the female social worker.
"You don't have to say anything to me anymore, because your temptation is of no use to me." The female social worker said with a gentle smile before she could speak: "Idiot."
"..." Lina.
"..." Female reporter.
The female reporter turned her head blankly and looked at the cute short-haired girl next to her, and then couldn't help but give her a thumbs up.
I admire you for daring to directly provoke weirdness!
This wave of hatred is very good!
Lina's face immediately darkened, and the girl stared at her sinisterly, with black substance flowing out of her strange eyes, making her beautiful little face look particularly terrifying at this moment.
"As expected, they are a bunch of dirty and despicable guys. For you to set foot on this land is to taint it!"
Lina's voice became shrill and hoarse, like the roar of a devil. She suddenly raised her head and roared, the sharp voice seemed to pierce her eardrums!
Qiming Building shook, and then the walls, corridors, ceilings, and doors all trembled slightly.
A slender claw protruded from the wall of the corridor, and a tentacle hung upside down from the ceiling. Then, more and more monsters gathered behind Lina, with a fishy smell of putridity and suffocation in the corridor. spread.
The female reporter frowned.
The rules here have indeed changed. At least, the manual did not say anything about this happening on the third floor.
She just wanted to stand outside and take a look at the situation in that room. The rules even said that the third floor was only for taking pictures.
Looking at the monsters taking shape not far away, the female reporter tossed the translucent marbles in her hand, and then threw them violently!
"boom!"
A powerful shock wave was set off, and the newly formed monsters were blown away and scattered into a pile of sticky dark matter, but they condensed again soon after.
But Lina still stood there, her blue nun uniform and twin ponytails fluttering in the strong wind. She stared at the two people at the top of the stairs with a ferocious smile on her face.
The female reporter snorted: "That rule is really troublesome."
She couldn't use open flames or anything that would exceed 400 degrees Celsius, so she couldn't trigger an explosion. She could only rely on ordinary energy shocks to push back the enemy, but such combat methods were useless in the current situation.
At this time, the female social worker said: "I will deal with them. Sister, please pay attention to help me hold back the battle."
"I don't have to rely on you alone, just hold me back for a minute while I make preparations." The female reporter said while taking out the marbles.
"good."
The female social worker smiled and nodded, then stepped forward and turned her hands. She held a dark green bamboo cane, and the cane exuded a faint light.
Looking at the monster climbing out of the corridor opposite, the female social worker's eyes flickered, her toes touched the ground and she rushed over with lightning speed!
The light of the cane instantly focused on the top, and she rushed straight towards Lina in the middle of the corridor, raising her hand to strike!
Lina made no move to dodge, with a strange smile on her face, which turned into black mist and disappeared without a trace during the attack.
However, the female social worker's attack did not really follow through. With her left foot on tiptoe as the center, her figure suddenly spun, and the falling cane whipped up a golden crescent moon stream, which flew towards the monster behind!
Wow——
The golden stream of light was like a wave of waves, and the monsters along the way were cut off in an instant and shattered into black mist in the erosion of the light.
Suddenly, a dark tentacle shot out from the ceiling above her head. The female social worker immediately leaned forward to avoid it, and at the same time, she turned her hand and struck the cane into the wall behind.
A faint shrill scream flashed past, and the sharp claw on the wall trying to sneak attack trembled and shattered.
The next moment, the female social worker quickly whipped out her carbine and repelled the tentacles attacking above her head.
She flipped the slender dark green bamboo palm in her hand and swerved in the corridor that was only one foot wide. Golden light flashed from time to time, piercing the darkness with a sacred and dazzling aura.
In the dark corridor where the monster roared and climbed, she was light, strong, dexterous, and her movements were like a beautiful butterfly wearing flowers.
The female reporter at the top of the stairs was stunned for a moment. When she reacted, she quickly threw seven marbles over there.
The translucent marbles float in the air and are connected by blue arcs to spin out mottled light, which looks beautiful in the dim environment.
The female reporter's expression and posture became extremely pious and sacred at this moment, and her eyes were shining with seven beads.
"Wisdom of the stars, hear my command."
"Seven Stars in a Row!"
