When people get along with each other for a long time, in addition to understanding each other's personalities, they will also understand each other's behavior style. After almost observing the hall, Peng Hu took the initiative to run to a wall without Ye Wei or He Fei's instructions. Press the power switch.

Snap.

The result was as expected. Although the power switch was pressed, the hall was still dark no matter how many times Peng Hu pressed it over and over. It was obvious that the main power supply was turned off. Unless the power supply room that controlled the power of the entire building could be found, this would not be possible. During the night-long supernatural mission, everyone could only spend the night in darkness.

Logically speaking, there is no difference between darkness and light. Everyone who is an executor knows that when danger comes, it does not matter day or night, and when insects attack humans, they often do not care about the environment. This is true, but executors After all, we are humans. Human eyes are not only most affected by light, but they also do not have the ability to see at night like cats.

In this way, there is no logical difference between darkness with unclear vision and light with clear vision. You can also see in the dark with the help of a cat-eye flashlight. However, in terms of psychology, human beings' rejection of darkness is instinctive. , being in a strange dark environment for a long time often brings strong depression and fear to people.

After all, human beings are creatures that tend towards the light. This is a need and an instinct.

So after confirming that Peng Hu's power switch was invalid, Cheng Ying was the first to search around the hall. His intention was obvious. He wanted to find the power room as soon as possible to provide lighting power to the building. However, strangely, although the hall was spacious, nearby There are many offices or rooms with various uses marked on the door, but unfortunately I haven't found a room related to electricity.

"Cheng Ying, wait, don't act rashly yet!"

Seeing that no one was found on the first floor, Cheng Ying, who searched to no avail, inevitably thought that the power room was probably on other floors. She was about to leave, but was immediately stopped by He Fei who noticed his intention from behind.

When Cheng Ying was called, He Fei and Ye Wei, who had some thoughts in their minds almost at the same time, also took out their mobile phones from their pockets one after another.

Looking at the screen, they saw that the signal grid was empty and the communication signal was inexplicably blocked. Both of them had expected this. After all, mobile phones were often interfered with by supernatural forces during supernatural missions and lost communication capabilities. When they found that the signal disappeared, both parties did not know. Da Da's reaction was just a slight frown, and the real purpose of the two people taking out their mobile phones was actually to confirm the time.

Yes, the executors' watches collectively failed for no reason. Since the time cannot be confirmed by the watch, it is better to use the mobile phone to confirm the time.

The truth is this. The two people who thought of this almost at the same time did so. However, when the two turned their eyes from the signal grid to the center of the screen, next, whether it was He Fei or Ye Wei, the two of them actually Both were stunned.

That's because... they can't see the time.

As soon as I saw it in my field of vision, the Arabic numerals used to mark the time were now gone!

(Why, how could this happen!?)

While their hearts suddenly tightened, an incomprehensible and indescribable sense of panic gradually swept over the two of them. The two subconsciously glanced at each other, and as expected, both sides saw a trace of panic in each other's expressions and eyes!

The watch stops and the phone does not display the time.

Why?

Why are all the devices that can be used to check the time malfunctioned?

What exactly is going on? And what does this phenomenon mean?

For a time, various thoughts such as doubts, incomprehensions, and suspicions enveloped the two of them. Although they are both smart people, their analytical abilities are far beyond ordinary people. Unfortunately, in this situation without any reason and without any clues and information, Even they couldn't find the answer to this strange phenomenon.

At this moment, in this spacious, dark and silent hall on the first floor, the executors who had completed the search did not take the next step. Instead, they gathered in the corner of the hall to discuss something. Of course, even though they were discussing, they were also clear. There could not be anyone else in the building except them, but during the conversation, everyone still subconsciously kept their voices as low as possible, as if they were afraid that too much sound would attract something.

Not only that, because they know that no one is allowed to leave the building until the mission is over, the executioners who are currently restricted to the building by the mission rules are truly terrified. It doesn’t matter whether you are an experienced veteran or it is your first time performing a mission. The root cause of newcomers lies in human beings' natural fear of locusts.

Back to the subject, the limited light brought by the cat's eye flashlight could not dispel Ye Wei's inner uneasiness. She glanced at the team members with different expressions around her. This time, Ye Wei neither said anything to comfort the newcomers nor said a word of nonsense. She pointed at the smartphone in her hand. Immediately, he went straight to the topic and said to everyone: "The building has been entered and the mission has officially begun. However, since neither the watch nor the mobile phone can display the time, we can no longer know the exact time, so I can only use an estimate to estimate the current time. It should be around midnight."

The time that Ye Wei estimated was close to the estimate in most people's minds. Regarding this point, the people present had no other doubts about this except that their watches and mobile phones did not display the time for no reason. At the same time, everyone was silent. , after a pause, Ye Wei changed the topic and asked a very selective question:

"However, even so, I still don't think it's a good idea for everyone to stay in the hall doing nothing. I never force anyone, so I will give you two choices next."

"First, find the power room and restore the power supply to the building, then look for clues in a well-lit environment and try to solve this supernatural mission."

"Second, don't turn on the building's power supply, just find a safe place to hide. Since this mission is a simple survival mission, and the space in the building is wide, logically speaking, the executor can also use evasion to get the mission. The time limit has arrived.”

Obviously, based on her rich mission experience, Ye Wei directly stated the essence of this ordinary supernatural mission after a moment of thinking. Her narrative words also laid out two possible paths for everyone to take. In fact, after thinking about it for a while, This is indeed true. As mentioned above, this is a typical survival mission. There is no mandatory requirement in the mission rules that the executor must solve supernatural events. So there are only two tasks in front of the executor. There is a way out, either to take the initiative and get rid of the monsters hiding in the building before they attack humans and gain true safety, or to take advantage of the wide space in the building to avoid it as much as possible and finally persevere. The task time limit has arrived.

The former is undoubtedly a search for a way out, and it is also a very dangerous risky behavior. After all, no one knows much about the black shadow-like slug. No one knows what the results of actively looking for clues will be, and what will happen in the process. There will be dangers, and props are prohibited in this mission, which means that once encountered in the building, the executor who cannot use props to save his life will have a high chance of survival.

The latter is much safer. There is a high chance of not being found by hiding in a spacious building through various methods. But then again, because everyone does not understand the black shadow, once they choose to avoid it, , choose to delay, so who can guarantee that the worms will have enough perception to easily find them? Once found, the ending is needless to say.

It's a dilemma!

At least this is the case for veterans who have experienced many supernatural missions, and these veterans also know the pros and cons between the two options.

Sure enough, when Ye Wei said this, except for Wu Wei and Zhao Xiaomei, who wanted to hide as soon as possible, Peng Hu, Cheng Ying, Zhao Ping and even Yao Fujiang all showed various reactions on the spot. Some people He lowered his head and pondered, some people scratched their ears and cheeks, and others looked confused. Everyone was silent for a while, until someone turned his bald head and looked around, until he swallowed, Peng Hu couldn't sit still, and his movements were unparalleled, and he bit Gritting his teeth, he patted his thigh and took the lead in making his personal choice:

"It's him! Afraid of a bird? Either dead or hanging alive. Although I am afraid of cockroaches, I also don't have the habit of waiting for death. I choose to take the initiative!"

As expected of Peng Hu, not only was he the first to make a choice among everyone present, but his choice of direction was also a proactive attack with a high risk factor.

Peng Hu was very open-minded and took the lead to express his opinion. However, unfortunately, after he made a decision while being furious, no one expressed his opinion again, and no one even spoke. Seeing this, the bald man couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, except for Apart from the embarrassment, he was also a little surprised. He was surprised at why the others were silent. After a long time, no one said anything. Perhaps to cover up the embarrassment, Peng Hu suddenly reached out and patted Yao Fujiang on the shoulder while talking to everyone. He continued: "Okay, since everyone is not taking a stand, let me go upstairs to find the power room with Brother Yao who also chose to take the initiative. Let's restore the power to the building first."

What! ! !

As soon as Peng Hu said this, Yao Fujiang was shocked. He never expected that the bald man would forcefully drag him into the water, especially after learning that the other party planned to drag him upstairs with him. As expected, he didn't expect it at all. Yao Fujiang, who had the courage to break away from the large army, was frightened half to death on the spot. He even wailed with a horrified expression: "No! When did I declare that I also support taking the initiative? I didn't! I didn't!"

"Huh? You didn't express your support? Then why did you nod at me when I expressed my stance just now?"

"No! I swear I didn't nod! When did I nod!?"
