"By the way, Xiaoyao, Li, and I have already finished talking about our respective experiences. Zhao Ping, why don't you say anything? Hurry up and tell us how Zhou Bingbing died and turned into a wolf. Is it really him? It's weird, no. To think that the executor can turn into a wolf after death? It's so fucking awesome! Hey, Chen Xiaoyao, are you kidding us? You clearly told everyone before that people can only become bastards after death. A fragile soul who is useless and has no threat, why is that Zhou Bingbing..."
"You, you ask me, who should I ask? I don't know how Zhou Bingbing turned into Li Qi. Anyway, that's what my master said to me back then. I'm just narrating what my master said. Hey everyone, hey, Li Tianheng, you must have seen it wrong, right?"
"No, no, I swear to God I did witness Zhou Bingbing's soul after his death. Whether it's appearance or overall strength, it's almost the same as the Li Qi you introduced earlier. What's more, only Li Qi can directly kill people. Last night Zhao Ping and I were once attacked and chased by Zhou Bingbing, if I lie, I will not survive this mission!"
Just when He Fei was secretly trying to figure out the intention of the curse, the group chat had already exploded. In addition to Peng Hu being very concerned about Li Qi and asking questions, Chen Xiaoyao and Li Tianheng also nervously joined in, until Li Tianheng swore that he was not lying. , Sure enough, as Li Tianheng swore to end, without waiting for Peng Hu to continue urging, Chen Xiaoyao, who cared more about Zhou Bingbing's ability to transform into Li Qi than anyone else, had already pointed the finger at someone, a man with glasses who had been silent for a long time: "Senior Zhao , tell me, what magical method did you use to turn Zhou Bingbing into Li Qi? Mother, Li Qi, that is a powerful Li Qi who kills people like chickens. Now we are in trouble. We are in big trouble. What if? What should I do if I encounter it accidentally?"
Listening to Chen Daoshi's words that seemed to be wailing but full of meaning, Zhao Ping was no longer silent, but he did not announce the death process of Zhou Bingbing. Instead, he spoke in his indifferent tone that had not changed for thousands of years. It’s not too long, but it’s enough to make everyone shiver again. My guess: “As I expected, in addition to the above unsolvable abilities, the faceless man also has an additional hidden ability, one that can destroy the soul of a person after death. The ability to forcibly upgrade your level.”
"After all, Chen Xiaoyao, you once said that it is extremely difficult for Li Qi to be born, and the chance is only one in ten thousand. I think Zhou Bingbing should be Li Qi who transformed under the influence of the Faceless Man. At the same time, Li Qi should also be the highest promotion limit for the Faceless Man. .”
Some kind of ability that can forcibly raise the level of human souls after death! ?
As soon as Zhao Ping said this, silence returned to the group chat. For a moment, everyone, including He Fei, was silent. While they were silent collectively, everyone was still talking. Their foreheads were sweating and their faces were pale, as if they were caught by Zhao Ping's words. The uncertain guess made him frightened and stunned, and his overall reaction was a bit more frightening than when he first learned about the faceless man's many abilities. Why was he so frightened? The key is that there are no fools in the crowd, and at the same time, everyone can use their imagination to speculate on the future. If, if Zhao Ping's guess is true, and he guesses that the faceless man with incredible abilities also has an additional soul enhancement method, then...
what does that mean?
Very simply, it means that the Faceless Man has the ability to create and mass-produce locusts!
To put it simply, it can be understood that it is best not to die in this supernatural mission. Once someone dies, the soul of the deceased is likely to be transformed by the faceless man into a higher-level terrifying existence that can threaten living people, perhaps a lonely soul. , maybe it is a demon, or even a demon can evolve. After the soul becomes a demon, it will be used by the faceless man, and then become the faceless man's helper in disguise to continue killing people!
If I had to explain the description in more straightforward terms, it would be...
The more people die, the more worms are born! ! !
………
The spread of fear mostly originates from death, and death is the most primitive instinctive fear of humans or other creatures in the world. It is a kind of resistance when faced with the deprivation of one's own life. If this kind of psychology continues to increase, increase, and even reach its peak, Then the fear will evolve, and then the initial fear will develop into despair.
There are many reasons for despair, but for the executors who are currently struggling to survive in the mission world, at this moment, the source of their despair is undoubtedly the wolf. They are all helpless and falling into despair because of the excessive power of the faceless man. Let me ask, when you face Will you despair when faced with a monster whose abilities are so perverted that it is invincible, whose strength is so incredible that it can even be created in disguise?
Fortunately, nothing is absolute. Based on the implicit rule that the curse never issues unsolvable tasks, in fact the executor still has a glimmer of hope for survival, and that is cards. As long as the 8 cards in Sanbu Forest can be collected, by then The executor can return to the Hell Train without having to stay up for seven days, and then end the mission early, so...
After a moment of silence, He Fei racked his brains and couldn't find an effective way to deal with the faceless man. Finally, in the farm living room, college students were the first to come to their senses. Qian Xueling, Chen Shuihong and Chen Guangyu were the first to break free from their thoughts while Qian Xueling, Chen Shuihong and Chen Guangyu were still silent in shock and fear. , instead of focusing on the threat of worms, we shift our focus and talk about other things.
"Ahem."
With the help of the spiritual link, He Fei coughed slightly to wake everyone up, then changed the topic and asked in a deep voice: "By the way, how many cards have you collected so far?"
Not to mention, after being mentioned like this by He Fei, the members of the forest team who were currently dripping with cold sweat and only focusing on fear suddenly realized as if they found light in the dark night. Yes, what if the faceless man is as invincible as a huge threat? Does the executor have to deal with that thing? Do we have to destroy that monster? No need, no need at all, as long as you can collect all the 8 cards specified by the curse!
And when it comes to the number of cards...
As soon as He Fei finished speaking, Peng Hu answered decisively, suppressing his fear and saying with hope: "Yes, yes, yes, He Fei, you are right, cards, we still have a way out with cards, as long as we can combine eight Get all the cards as soon as possible, and then those tall and thin monsters won’t be able to do anything to us!” At this point, the bald man stared down, and then after glancing at the cards in his hand, he announced his own number first: “Currently Xiaoyao and I have collected cards No. 2, 5, and 7, by the way, Li Tianheng, Zhao Ping, where are you?"
When he heard that the opponent also had three cards in his hand, Li Tianheng was quite surprised, but he was surprised. He put his right hand into his pocket and groped quickly, then took out a card and added: "I have one too, I also have a number 3! "
(Peng Hu and the others have three cards in their hands, while Li Tianheng holds one... huh?)
Sure enough, as Peng Hu and others announced the number of cards they held, Zhao Ping's expression moved slightly. His gentle face that looked like frost just now tensed up immediately after learning the number of cards, and then he became like Li Tianheng. He reached into his pocket like that, and finally took out two white cards under the gaze of the glitchy young man.
"I have numbers 1 and 6 in my hand."
At this moment, after hearing the announcement of the number of men with glasses at the end, everyone felt something. It seemed that the dawn that represented the way to survive was no longer far away, and had already developed to the point where it was about to be touched!
1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7...
Six!
A total of six cards. Unexpectedly, the executor has now collected six digital cards before he knows it!
"Huh? Li Tianheng, Zhao Ping, it turns out that you two have three of them over there. It seems that our forest search these days was not in vain. We actually got six of them, leaving only the last two of 4 and 8!" Statistics After seeing the specific number, Peng Hu was overjoyed and praised him repeatedly during the joy. Of course, the bald man was overjoyed, and how could the others in the forest be the same? Peng Hu is like this, Chen Xiaoyao is like this, and Li Tianheng is like this. Even Zhao Ping, who was ups and downs and nervous not long ago, subconsciously felt relieved. It seems that he did not underestimate the abilities of Peng Hu and others, so much so that even the seemingly useless Li Tianheng has found one, and there are currently six cards in the hands of the executor. Next, he only needs to find No. 4 and No. 8, and then the mission can be ended instantly!
Adjusting the gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, Zhao Ping thought in his mind. He Fei, who was far away in Pingyuan Farm, also held a similar view. But then again, although it is a good thing to collect six, it is still not a happy time. After all, most of them are senior people, and they have a deep understanding of the fact that curses often set up traps in missions. As a result, everyone has gradually developed the habit of not relaxing until the last moment. As expected, the joy only lasted for a moment, and they saw just now Peng Hu, who was still full of joy and almost laughing in the group chat, fell silent. Except for him, most of the others fell silent and fell silent.
After realizing this, and as the captain, He Fei paused, thinking that even if everyone knew it, he still had the obligation to remind him. However, just when the college student was thinking about ending his intention to remind him, Zhao Ping changed the subject before him, Then he asked He Fei a question in an unexpected way: "Wait a minute, let's not talk about us first, you guys on the farm..."
Although Zhao Ping didn't finish what he said, everyone knew what the man with glasses meant. When he mentioned it suddenly, everyone who was originally thinking about how to get the remaining cards suddenly changed their minds, and Chen Xiaoyao followed closely behind. He asked curiously: "By the way, Lao He, are you, Cheng Ying and Sister Xueling okay recently?"
It was obvious that Chen Xiaoyao was testing the waters, trying to ask what was going on at the farm before the spiritual link was over. You must know that this mission had two optional objectives, and the reason why the team was divided into two groups was also It's for safety reasons. Since the forest is extremely dangerous, what about the 7-day survival mission as another optional goal? What have half of the executioners, including He Fei who is stranded on the farm, experienced recently?
"Eh? Zhao Ping, you almost forgot if you didn't tell me about him. Brother, you and Cheng Ying are still learning from Sister Ling. They haven't discovered anything recently, right?" After Chen Xiaoyao's words, Peng Huyi patted his head and asked, along with Naturally, there was also Li Tianheng who was as curious as Chen Xiaoyao. For a while, the topic moved from the forest to the farm under the deliberate guidance of the man with glasses. As for He Fei...
The young man did not answer. He did not express his opinions as fully as he did when talking about the forest. Instead, he remained tangled and silent after listening to everyone's questions. His expression was keenly captured by Qian Xueling. Seeing the complicated expression on the college student's face, the woman seemed to be silent. She wanted to speak, but just when she was about to answer on behalf of He Fei, she planned to truthfully inform the members of the forest team about the many strange and bizarre events that had recently occurred on the farm...
Snapped.
He Fei moved, quickly held her down with quick eyes and hands, and then shook his head slightly under Qian Xueling's puzzled eyes and expression.
Witnessing the young man shaking his head, Qian Xueling was just as confused as Chen Shuihong, but she still didn't speak after He Fei's signal, and just stared at the young man. Then like everyone else, she heard He Fei's answer, which was a cautious answer that didn't seem to be fake. : "No, there haven't been any weird incidents in the farm recently. There is no danger yet. On the contrary, you who are in the woods should be more careful and collect the last two cards as much as possible. This is not only about whether our entire team can survive and return." , it also depends on whether we can obtain the most critical golden key."
The result was predictable. When they heard that everything was safe on the farm, everyone felt a little relieved and expressed that they would try their best. He Fei reminded them again and again with uneasiness, and said that he would contact everyone frequently to exchange news in the next few days.
As the communication between the two parties came to an end, and there was no other news, after the exchange of instructions was completed, the college student stopped in time. However, seeing that He Fei was about to close the spiritual link, for some reason, Qian Xueling spoke on the opposite side. During the conversation, this person almost The beautiful lady who had been silent throughout the whole process suddenly spoke in an inexplicable way before the call ended, and called out a certain person's name in a slightly nervous tone:
"Zhao Ping."
"Huh? What's the matter?" Since the two parties have known each other for a long time, as soon as Qian Xueling spoke, Zhao Ping was instantly sure that it was Qian Xueling calling him. When he heard the voice, the man with glasses subconsciously responded and asked what was going on. However, it was strange. Unfortunately, Qian Xueling did not continue, did not continue to speak as expected, but chose to remain silent while the man was waiting curiously. After a long silence, the woman opened her mouth with a complicated expression and continued: "No, it's nothing, I just I want to tell you to be careful, and please don’t lose the handmade pendant I gave you.”
Amidst the collective suspicion of Zhao Ping and the rest of the people, Qian Xueling ended this brief and strange conversation of unknown meaning on her own. It was only then that He Fei closed the link with the woman's nod.
As the communication ended and the exchange ended, sure enough, all the executors in the woods took action. In front of the bonfire, after looking at each other, they nodded. Both Peng Hu and Chen Xiaoyao got up and started busy. Chen Xiaoyao Holding the snow in his hands to extinguish the bonfire, Peng Hu turned around and carried Kong Ling on his back. Undoubtedly, with the help of the spiritual link, after getting the exact news that there were only two cards left, the two set off decisively and officially started the race at the same time. No matter what, they have to find the last two cards before the faceless man finds them. As for the heavy snowfall and the extremely cold environment? There's no need to worry about it. Compared to being caught and killed by a hawk because you couldn't collect all the cards, what does the extreme cold mean?
It was said to be so, but in fact it was also true. Despite the severe cold and low temperature, Peng Hu just carried the unconscious girl on his back. As expected, Chen Xiaoyao, who had only one eye left, glanced at the dark surroundings and asked instinctively: "By the way, Brother Peng, let's go there." Where to go?"
"Whatever, we have been lost for a long time anyway, just pick any direction and walk in any direction. I don't believe it yet. The remaining two can be drilled into the ground! Come on, let's continue searching. Maybe we can get ahead of Zhao Ping." Collect eight cards in front of them."
At the same time, just as Peng Hu and the others extinguished the bonfire and left, Zhao Ping also forced Li Tianheng to get up and move at another location. However, compared to Peng and Chen who were full of hope, Zhao Ping had no reason to be worried. Worry, Mo felt uneasy knowing that there were only two cards left. The feeling was extremely complicated, so complicated that even Zhao Ping himself could not find the source of it. It was precisely because the source was vague and vague. , in desperation, the man with glasses had to temporarily give up and worry about other things, and the most important thing at the moment is...
Glancing at the slightly excited Li Tianheng beside him, Zhao Pingping said without expression: "Let's go. After resting for a while, I think your physical strength has almost recovered."
………
Time, 17:05 in the evening, Weir Farm.
It was snowing outside the window, and the living room was silent. In front of the sofa, He Fei lowered his head and meditated on the changes in his eyebrows. He thought for a long time until the college student silently raised his head to look out the window. Qian Xueling knew that he could not disturb the other person's thinking. Then Qian Xueling found the right opportunity to speak out. The young man asked a question, a question that not only had been pressing in her heart for a long time, but also puzzled everyone present:
"He Fei, why didn't you tell Brother Peng and the others the truth about the farm just now?"
As mentioned above, this was the first question raised by Qian Xueling after the spiritual link ended. It is the most difficult question for women to understand at present. It is obvious that the farm is currently under threat of locusts, but He Fei was asked by Zhao Ping and others one after another. The next answer is nothing? This seems to run counter to the previous exchange of information. In that case, what is your intention in doing this?
Qian Xueling couldn't guess what the intention was. It's conceivable that even Qian Xueling couldn't guess it. Chen Shuihong and Chen Guangyu, who had been pretending to be dumb and waiting to see what happened, were even more confused. Fortunately, their purpose was simple, as long as they could stay alive. , you can just put down other things without caring about them. They don't care about it. Unfortunately, He Fei, who is also in the living room, is just the opposite. At this moment, the college student is taking the place of Peng Hu and others in the woods. Worry, even to the point of worrying beyond measure!
The reason is precisely from the faceless man, from that perverted evil spirit whose strength is no less than that of Yamamura Sadako!
That's right. In fact, He Fei had already realized that this mission had the risk of group destruction since he learned about the abilities of the Faceless Man. There was a very high probability of group destruction. It was true that He Fei kept calm during the call. He was communicating in a tone of voice, but in fact he had been pretending and pretending to be calm all the time. The reason was that he was the captain and the backbone of the entire team. Imagine that if even he, the captain, was frightened and panicked, then others would What would you think? How should teammates and companions who are looking for cards in the forest react? He Fei will not and cannot show such things that affect morale. Not only will he not show it, on the contrary, he must face everyone with a calm attitude as much as possible. Only in this way can he create the illusion that He Fei is confident, and then start. To stabilize military morale and strengthen belief.
As for why he didn't tell Peng Hu and others about the current situation of the farm?
At this moment, listening to Qian Xueling's question full of doubts, He Fei shifted his gaze and retracted his sight from the window. Then he shook his head and smiled bitterly at the woman. While smiling bitterly, he said something meaningful: "Sister Xueling, it's not me. We don’t want to tell Brother Peng and Zhao Ping about our current situation, but there is no need to say it. Even if we tell it, it will have no practical significance at all except to make Brother Peng and the others worry about us."
As soon as He Fei said this, Qian Xueling seemed to understand, because she suddenly realized that the current situation was quite special. In other words, even though the farm and the forest were not far apart from each other in the plains, they had actually evolved into two. There are two worlds, two independent spaces that basically do not interfere with each other. In the forest, Peng Hu and others are risking their lives to collect cards and are executing the second mission goal. On the farm, he, He Fei and others are just executing In the time-consuming survival mission, due to the different goals of both parties, the crises they face are also different. Except for the psychic link that can forcibly break the supernatural blockade and allow the two groups to communicate, the two parties are essentially unrelated. The executor is trapped in the forest. It cannot help the executor who is on the farm, and the executor on the farm is also helpless to the executor who is being chased by locusts in the woods. Unless the members of the farm group also enter the forest collectively, it will be difficult for the two groups to help each other. At most, the farm team can provide early warning to the forest team members with that sketch that can predict life and death, but the forest team cannot help the farm team at all.
Thinking of this, Qian Xueling suddenly realized, and then even more admired He Fei's thoughtfulness. Indeed, based on the current situation, it can be clearly seen that the members of the forest group are now unable to protect themselves. So do you still need to tell the other party about the situation of the farm? Once the truth is told, the result can only be to affect morale and disturb the morale of the army, making Peng Hu and others who are always facing the threat of monsters even more desperate and nervous!
"I'm sorry, I didn't think well." After thinking about it in her mind, Qian Xueling apologized directly with a look of shame on her face, while He Fei waved his hands and shrugged and responded: "No, it's not your fault, but I have been paying attention to this matter since I was divided into groups. At first, I imagined that Brother Peng and the others would be able to exit the forest and return to the plains even if they couldn't find all the cards. I never thought that the place was completely controlled by the tigers! It has become a closed space with no entry or exit. In the final analysis, I underestimated the strength of the worm. I, I really didn’t expect that the worm in this mission would be so powerful!"
He Fei frowned and looked ugly. At the end of the sentence, he clenched his fists and got emotional. Qian Xueling felt the same way, so why wasn't it unexpected? Seeing that the college student's mood was fluctuating, Qian Xueling hurriedly offered words of comfort. However, coincidentally, just when she was about to say something...
squeak.
With a sudden soft sound, the front door of the living room was pushed open. Everyone looked for the sound and saw a girl covered with snowflakes appearing in front of the living room door. The person who came was none other than someone else...
It was Cheng Ying who ran away from the farm not long ago!
