Chapter 3 Deadly dungeon "Whispering Demon"(1/2)
Chapter 3 Fatal Copy "Whispers of the Inner Demon"
Sister Lin's crying soon drifted away.
Things in front of me turned dark, and my weightless body seemed to be falling with the ticking sound of time.
"Damn, this is probably the first time that I have been knocked down by a little girl in my own room...except Yu Xuan."
In all the unknown conditions, Jiang Qian found fortunately that his mind could still think.
Therefore, he directly skipped the fear, panic and other emotions that should have appeared, and began to review the process of how he fell into this situation.
Maybe it started when I caught a glimpse of the three words "invitation letter"?
No, to be precise, something happened when his hand touched the card with the words "Invitation" printed on it.
He didn't even have time to think about the contents of the invitation!
Received, that is, "accepted"? Is this the joint where he was pulled into this darkness?
Jiang Qian's body was still falling slowly, and there was no sound around him.
This originally frightening turn of events actually seemed slightly absurd under his calm response.
The ability to display such psychological quality is due to the physiological defects of his brain, which prevents his relevant emotional reactions from being triggered.
At this moment, a mechanical voice sounded:
[Name: Jiang Qian]
[Race: Human]
【Age: 20】
[Tip: Evolutionary pathways are under evaluation]
[Tip: When the trial copy is completed, "identity cards" and rewards will be issued based on the evaluation results]
Evolutionary path?
ID tag?
Copy…
If this kind of setting appeared in an online novel, it would probably be classified as an IQ novel, right?
Jiang Qian listened intently and carefully accepted the only source of information here.
The evolutionary path and identity card most likely point to some kind of supernatural power.
And copy, a proper noun that usually appears in the field of games, undoubtedly represents a surreal order.
Is this really an opportunity to touch extraordinary power?
While Jiang Qian felt a little excited, he realized another thing: risks, or costs.
The dull voice paused for a moment.
Continue to remind:
[Welcome to the "Super Species World", you will become a free evolution warrior of the super species group, ahead of the human race, and touch the divine gift of the new world. Before that, please pass the qualification trial. 】
[The trial is about to begin, and trial dungeons are being randomly matched... What you are matching is dungeon AS1741 "Whispers of the Inner Demon"]
[Type: Single-person customization]
[Difficulty level: Nightmare]
[Betting chips: life*1]
[Main mission: Arrive at the "Abyss Video Hall" and complete your exclusive viewing mission (0/7)]
[Introduction: The forbidden place in the heart of a mortal is sealed with things that can kill him/herself.]
[When your consciousness is asleep, it will quietly sneak into your dreams to cause trouble, making you mistakenly think that those "evil thoughts" are your true wishes. You are shocked and startled, staring at the unknown forbidden land vigilantly, and that thing is also there
Staring at you...]
[Don’t act rashly, don’t quibble, don’t be immersed, don’t be gullible]
[Note: Unfortunately, you have drawn the highest difficulty trial dungeon in history. Its top-ranked mortality rate will probably make you give up completely before you start. No, don’t do that. Remember: those things can’t kill you.
It will definitely make you strong.]
At the end of this reminder, the sound gradually became distant and near, until it completely disappeared.
At the same time, the falling state finally stopped, and Jiang Qian's feet returned to the ground.
The surroundings remained dark.
He stood in the darkness, waiting for his vision to recover. At the same time, he quickly reviewed the information received in his mind, and gradually gained an idea of the current situation.
Although it is absurd to think this way, it does seem that I have been pulled into some kind of mysterious space.
There are exclusive game rules and evaluation system here.
The winner will receive a special status and corresponding rewards.
The embodiment of this special identity should be the "identity card" mentioned in the prompt. Its essence is most likely to be some unknown power, and it can be enhanced through "evolution".
The loser will probably die - because the bet is on "life".
"Is this what you call 'a little risk'?" Jiang Qian snorted coldly, with a cold look in his eyes.
Unfortunately for me, I shamelessly assumed that humans are model organisms, and ended up being thrown into this life-and-death struggle like a guinea pig...
Seduction, backstabbing, it’s me who’s tricking you, and you’re still crying?
What kind of showman are you pretending to be in front of me?
"Xiao Nizi, don't worry... wait until we get out and see how I can comfort you."
Although it was not voluntary, Jiang Qian quickly accepted the reality: he was already involved in a huge gamble with his life as a bargaining chip, and he would not die if he did not do so.
According to the prompt information in the dungeon, he is likely to be attacked by some non-stealth force.
Those twelve words seem to be a reminder to avoid risks: don't act rashly, don't quibble, don't be immersed, don't be gullible.
But these alone are not enough.
We can only follow the clues.
"The main task is to find the 'Abyss Video Hall' and watch the movie as required. I am familiar with watching movies. It's just that the name of this video hall is not auspicious..."
"Does the 0/7 shown later refer to the completion level? It's really good, 7 pitfalls."
Jiang Qian continued to chew on the hints given to him by this so-called copy.
The surroundings that I couldn't even see were beginning to move.
He suddenly heard a strange noise behind him, as if someone laughed, and quickly disappeared.
Almost at the same time, there was the sound of running in the other direction.
The sound of running was fast and slow, running far away for a while, but at first glance, it seemed to be getting closer...
Immediately afterwards, a strange, inaudible whisper sounded in his ears... It was as if someone was dancing behind him, and the bad breath almost sprayed onto the back of his neck.
Under such circumstances, normal people should have lived in Bengbu long ago.
The quieter ones have soft legs that stick to the ground, but the lively ones can make you pee your pants while running!
In comparison, Jiang Qian's sense of experience seems too lacking.
It can be said that there is no fear.
In the darkness, his eyes followed the sound, carefully distinguishing the direction and distance of each sound, and directly choked the other party!
But it came to nothing.
Jiang Qian remained vigilant and did not pursue the victory. He was not sure whether those floating around him, waiting for opportunities to cause trouble, were real or illusory.
The more chaotic the moment, the more calm you need. Any unnecessary behavior may confuse the other party.
Suddenly, a gust of cool wind blew in his face, causing the strands of hair on Jiang Qian's forehead to move to the back of his head.
Is this a windward opening?
In other words, if he is inside a semi-enclosed space and his vision is blocked, he should have a chance to find the exit by moving towards the windward opening.
His mission was to reach the "Abyss Video Hall". Without any more clear prompts, restoring his vision and actively searching became his first option.
At least worth a try.
Jiang Qian moved forward slowly with the soles of his feet to test, and the "whispering" behind him suddenly became restless again.
They kept urging me forward, but I'm afraid they weren't helping me... Jiang Qian slowed down, lowered his body, lowered his center of gravity, and was careful to be on guard against sneak attacks in the dark.
Then, his foot touched something.
The thing didn't look like a living thing, but it retreated as soon as he touched it. Then, he heard a subtle falling sound from under his feet.
"Hey?"
Isn't this the inner edge of a building without guardrails?
To be continued...
