Su Ming'an didn't look back, and directly moved towards the space behind him to locate the vibration.
The air seemed to be stirred instantly by a big hand. When he quickly turned around with his hand in his hand, he saw a sliver of darkness condensed in the air.
It was an unidentified black object, like pitch-black algae, which was still emitting twisted black lines around it when it was controlled. When Su Mingan stretched out his hand again and poured five hundred points of mana into the space, the darkness instantly disappeared like a balloon bursting.
[Kill? ? ? ,Exp+500]
[Get Clues 2·Nocturnal Objects in the Dark Night]
[Clue 2: Nocturnal objects in the dark night: twisted, strange and unknown black bodies. They appear to be extremely aggressive and won't enter other people's rooms at night - unless they hear you making noisy noises. 】
…
[You noticed the pollutants from the night, and the san value became slightly unstable]
…
In the upper left corner of the field of vision, the orange bar, which originally dropped to 70, began to fluctuate slightly like water boiling, rising and falling, and was uncertain for a while.
Su Mingan felt that the field of view seemed to be darker, as if part of the saturation had been taken away, and the dark corners around him were also expanding.
He ignored the sanity value and looked at the clues.
At least he knew that it was night.
One o'clock.
And these monsters who take the initiative to break in...
He looked at the door that was pushed open, and there was darkness outside.
It's not the kind of darkness where things can't be seen clearly, but pure blackness, as if there is nothing outside, and a death sentence will be triggered as soon as you step out, as if a piece of life has been wiped out.
And when he was looking at that area, there seemed to be a silent blackness spreading along the door, but it stayed at the door rail and did not come in, as if it was blocked from the outside.
[Don’t let them hear].
He moved slightly, and the floor under his feet made a harsh "squeak" sound.
The sound spread far, far away.
He seemed to understand what attracted these things.
If his guess is correct, this should be a temporarily safe initial area to provide a buffer for players. But once the player gets off the bed, steps on the floor and makes a sound, the strange thing will be attracted and the official copy will begin.
If he had thought more and not touched the ground when he saw the blood words on his thigh, or if he had a skill similar to floating and not made a sound, no monsters would be attracted.
...But it doesn't matter.
The combat power of the attracted monster is between 200 and 400. Even with 500 mana points, the damage seems to be excessive. It can kill the opponent easily.
If you are a whiteboard player who has just entered the dungeon, this mistake may be fatal. But for him, some things no longer need to be so cautious, and he can get by with high force value.
He is currently the player with the highest combat power. If he falls on the initial mobs of the dungeon, it will be too difficult.
Thinking of this, he opened the combat power ranking list.
I was traveling before and never looked at it, but now I have time to look at the changes in the rankings.
The blue system interface unfolded before his eyes. He glanced at it and saw several unfamiliar names.
【World Ranking】
, Su Mingan/Occupation: Bai Shen
2. Noel Akinni/Occupation: Puppet Master
3. Edward/Profession: Time Stopper
4. Aland/Occupation: Prophet
5. Mizushima Kawakora/Occupation: Illusion
6. Aiden/Professor: High-level Shadow Priest
7. Alger/Professor: Crazy Sword
, Lu Shu/Occupation: Beast Controller
9. North Look/Occupation: Frost Mage
0. Lin Jiang/Occupation: Puppet Master
…
The top three were the same as before. Edward's combat power also increased very quickly, but right behind him, there was an Alande whom he had never seen before.
And this Ninth North Looker is also someone I have never seen before. Su Mingan had taken a rough look at the top 100 players in the world before, but he didn't look north like this.
This is actually a player who has completed all the levels perfectly, but fell outside the top 100...and his combat power is not particularly high, which looks strange - could it be that he has cleared all the levels intellectually and is particularly bad at fighting?
Don't know what this person has been through.
Lu Shu, on the other hand, fell directly to eighth place... It was probably because he was paddling too hard in the fifth world and was swimming outside the entire race, so he didn't get any good reviews.
He closes the ranking interface.
His gaze will never be limited to this small ranking list. He should pay attention to things other than humans.
In terms of internal ranking, he is already at the highest position, so he needs to find some more important mechanisms than these.
His eyes were fixed on the darkness outside the door for a moment, and then he took a step forward.
As he passed the door, he saw a notice posted on the door on the outside.
[Please note, students. 】
[Night time is from 11pm to 6am, and it is strictly prohibited to go out at night. 】
[At six o'clock in the morning, please go out and gather on time to start a new day of study. 】
[Please maintain a healthy schedule and avoid staying up late. 】
[If you violate the schedule and act at night, you will be punished. 】
…
[Obtain clue three·Work and rest time]
【:Sleep well and don't stay up late. Going to bed on time is good for the body and mind, but staying up too late can lead to sudden death. 】
…
Clear reminders written on the door.
Logically speaking, as long as the players have some brains, they will not go out at this time under the dual prompts of such a black hole-like outside world and warning notices.
Su Mingan touched the notice and made sure there was nothing hidden underneath. He raised his eyes and stepped out.
The floorboards creaked, especially loud in the near-dead darkness.
He stepped from the light into the darkness and looked into the center of his gradually recovering vision.
Outside is a long corridor.
There was no light at all. He stood in front of the brightest light, looking at the dark corridor with no end in sight.
He went inside.
Suddenly, the light behind him was squeezed a little bit, and the shadow under him was squeezed and extinguished. He didn't look back, and walked towards the end of the corridor step by step, letting the door close behind him.
"boom--!"
There was a loud noise, and the silent wooden door made a thunderous vibration when it was closed. Su Mingan seemed to feel something peering at him in the darkness around him. He blinked, and there was something at the edge of his vision with dark corners. Moving.
"Shua la la..."
He heard a small crackling sound, as if the wall paint was gradually peeling off, or as if something extremely light was approaching quickly with footsteps.
He had no intention of staying in a safe room and letting his clone explore the way.
When the clone dies, it costs five career points to repair it. Instead of wasting five career points, it is better to explore the path yourself. One's own life costs almost nothing, and even if you die, you will have to start over.
Five career points are obviously more precious than one's own life.
He walked quickly along the corridor.
The creaking sound under the feet became more and more harsh, as if someone was stepping on someone with every step. Since he couldn't see, his hand slid forward against the wall on the left, touching the dusty wall and wooden doors.
There should be other players inside the wooden door. Their rooms should be similar to his, and they are all in this corridor. However, compared to him, other players may not have chosen to act yet, so the wooden doors are closed.
No one dared to make a sound.
...let alone pushing the door open and going out like he did.
As players gradually became familiar with the urinary nature of game copies, they understood that such reckless behavior despite warnings would definitely only bring harm to themselves.
But that's what Su Mingan did.
Because he is error-tolerant.
He moved quickly against the wall, with no vision at all.
It's like walking on a street at night with your eyes closed. You don't know what's ahead, whether there will be cars, whether there are intersections, whether there are lawns and ditches that suddenly appear... you just close your eyes forcibly. Walk forward, leaving only one hand touching the wall.
Danmu looked at this scene and was completely dumbfounded:
[A true warrior...]
[Coming from the live broadcast rooms of other big guys, none of them really dare to do this...]
[Is this really a true body test? Not sending a clone? He is really reckless. 】
[The first player is also a little too courageous, so he should be cautious in case he dies here...]
[That’s interesting, the human self-rescue meeting was in vain, second generation Iris. 】
[Did you get any clues? For example, do you know it won't be dangerous? This is so scary. I feel scared even looking through the screen and can’t see anything... Is there really anyone who is not scared? 】
[I'm afraid of scenes like this in horror games, let alone the reality that I could die at any time...]
…
He walked along the squeaky floorboards and suddenly heard another small crackling sound.
The extremely high mental point allowed him to quickly lock the position, and regardless of what was coming, he directly stretched out his hand, poured 400 points of mana, and the space vibration was thrown directly in that direction.
"boom--"
Fluctuation occurs instantly.
[Kill Student No. 23, Exp+00]
...Student No. 23?
Su Mingan groped in that direction, and his feet touched something heavy. He knelt down, reached out and touched someone's body.
Since the fabric the other person was wearing had the same feel as what he was wearing, he looked like a player in the same situation as him.
But judging from the system prompts, this is another NPC.
[Obtain prop No. 23, a worn-out teddy bear. 】
He suddenly touched a soft object, the system prompt sounded, and a transparent and matte panel appeared in front of his eyes:
[My daughter has a cold, which is really worrying. It’s not easy to take care of a child alone. 】
[My daughter is leaving. It is said that she will come back during the holidays. I really hope that the waiting days will pass quickly. 】
[My daughter is not here, and I feel very empty. 】
[Counting the days, my daughter will be back soon. I need to prepare to buy groceries. Remember that she loves sweet and sour pork ribs the most...]
[Oh, by the way, there is also the toy bear that she has been thinking about for a long time. She saw the store on the corner selling it before. Do you want to give her a surprise...]
…
[Props can be stored in the temporary prop inventory. 】
Su Mingan dragged the teddy bear into the props column and stood up.
Along the way, he also found some raised objects on the road, which were cabinets. There are actually several cabinets in this corridor, but there is nothing in them. I don’t know what they are used for.
He walked along the original path and suddenly felt his vision brighten slightly.
...It's not that something happened unexpectedly, it's just that there seems to be a light source in the distance.
It sways and lights up below, like a candle in the distance, seemingly ready to go out at any moment.
The light source is below.
Su Mingan looked down and realized that there seemed to be stairs below. This corridor was not a one-way passage, and there seemed to be other places to go. You can even go up and down the stairs.
And when he noticed the light, he seemed to feel that the light was getting brighter and brighter...
wrong.
It's not getting brighter.
It was a bright distance, getting closer and closer to him.
He stood there and quickly inserted an eye.
The eyes rotated in place and then quickly became invisible.
This is a supervisory eye with a prophecy gem, which can help him in his future actions. The moment the eye was inserted, a blood-red cursor popped up instantly. The extremely red and extremely bright cursor pointed down instantly, shooting out like crazy, pointing firmly in the direction of the light source below.
In the prompts of the Supervisory Eye, red represents danger, and green represents safety and opportunity.
The brighter the color, the more serious the representation.
At this moment, the bright red color that was almost burning told him that it was extremely dangerous below, especially that light.
The crisis is measured by his strength. If even his current strength is measured, the opponent is judged to be extremely dangerous...
He looked down.
The extremely dangerous thing holding the light is approaching here steadily, as if it has found the right direction.
And just when he retreated and his feet made a harsh "squeaking" sound, the light instantly magnified in front of his eyes, like a candle flame suddenly expanding.
——The opponent is approaching very quickly!
It found him.
Su Mingan hesitated for a moment and immediately turned around.
Because, at the same time, a flash of bright green also lit up above the supervisory eye, pointing firmly in another direction.
That's a way out, or an opportunity.
He quickly ran in the direction pointed by the green arrow and saw a cabinet at the edge of the corridor.
……cabinet?
In the mechanics of many horror games, the cabinet represents a safe place. As long as you don't enter the cabinet in front of the ghost, you can hide in it without being discovered. After the ghost leaves, the player can walk out of the cabinet and continue to explore.
Perhaps, it's the same here. The cabinet represents a point of absolute safety.
No wonder... there are a few strange-looking empty cabinets in the empty corridor.
Su Mingan suddenly felt a sense of déjà vu, like playing a horror game.
He quickly stepped forward, opened the cabinet door, and was about to hide inside——
As he stepped forward, he felt like he was stepping on something soft instead of the hard bottom of the cabinet.
"I'm stupid."
He heard a national curse.
There are people inside.
...Why, you have to queue up to squeeze into the cabinet this night?
