Chapter 58
Update
"ah!!!"
A shrill scream sounded, and the darkness that shrouded the room instantly faded away.
At this time, Xu Yuan finally saw the whole ghost shadow, and at the same time he also saw clearly the appearance of the boy.
The boy is about ten years old.
His face is a little pale, his hair is very sparse, and his appearance is very sinister, especially his pair of white eyes with black balls and small eyes, which are very fierce.
At this time, he was looking with horrified eyes at the shadow double who tore off the ghost arm, opened his mouth, stuffed the ghost arm into his mouth and chewed it wildly.
"Kid, stop looking."
The sound in his ears brought him back to his senses, and he saw the man holding an ax standing next to him, looking at him with a ferocious smile.
"The next step is education time, let's play slowly."
"Uncle, I was just joking with you."
[Third Aunt: Xiaoyuan, your third uncle left last night. Before he left, he was still thinking about you. He said that you are the most promising person in our old Xu family, and he should get closer to you. By the way, your brother is going to your house recently.
He goes to school in the city, so you have to take more care of him. The first thing I know is you, and I will keep it a secret for you.]
On the bloody interface, there is still the familiar underworld personal attribute panel.
Sighing again, Xu Yuan took out his cell phone and checked the time.
He is simply a saint.
Xu Yuan clicked on the enhancement option, and the screen on his phone suddenly went black, and then a coffin and a paper man jumped out.
Some asked for a hug, some wanted to be a girlfriend, and some asked Xu Yuan to reveal how he became so strong.
Seeing this line of prompts, Xu Yuan hesitated.
Now the shadow double can execute Xu Yuan's will to a certain extent and carry out simple free actions.
Xu Yuan firmly controls the top spot on the ranking list.
When he opened his eyes, the shadow double that had been standing beside him turned into fluid, returned to his back and turned into a shadow.
He discovered that there was a brand new icon on his mobile phone interface.
No longer paying attention to the unhappy-looking paper man, Xu Yuan focused his attention on the black coffin beside him.
Although he only had a brief contact with it, he had already noticed that this paper man was strengthened and full of deception.
With a few clicks of his fingers, he quickly edited the message, and Xu Yuan replied to his relatives with similar messages.
The dark night passed quickly, and the light of dawn pierced the darkness and brought dawn to the earth.
[③ Turn on the safe time function. Daytime (6 o'clock to 20 o'clock) is the safe time. Players will not see "things" they should not see as long as they do not enter special areas during this time. 】
"grass!"
Only a fool would make such a choice.
Xu Yuan thought of the terrifying ghost wandering in the corridor that he saw with his future vision.
【Wish you a happy game~】
The next second, a new line of prompts popped up on the phone.
"Agree!"
Behind him, his shadow has returned to its original shape, except that only half of his head is left, and the shadow of the upper half of his head has disappeared.
Wait for him to send another message.
Blink again and the prompt starts to change again.
If after strengthening, Guifa could directly rise to the star level, he could consider using up his lifespan to strengthen this ghost puzzle piece.
Seeing the new prompt that popped up, Xu Yuan burst into laughter.
Xu Yuan knew from the speechless messages on his cell phone that people named Xu Yuan all over the country would probably encounter the same troubles as himself.
[Lamborghini Poison Dealer Ghost Puzzle.]
【Endless horror update completed!】
Future Vision activates.
It's not physical fatigue, because with the backing of the source of life, his body won't be tired even if he doesn't rest for ten days and a half.
Xu Yuan didn't want to risk his life without knowing why.
The dark shadow stood up from behind him as he lay down, like a bodyguard, guarding his side.
In the middle of a circle of wreath paper figures, there are three options.
Xu Yuan grinned when he saw this prompt. From his perspective, there was another line of prompts that only he could see.
It's better to live.
[Yang Jian: There are knockers in Chang City. Don’t go out and walk around unless you have something to do. The knockers are very dangerous and cannot be defeated.】
"Onlookers+2"
[Task completion: 85%, reward: 1 year life span]
He was a little curious.
Xu Yuan was also woken up by the notification sound on his cell phone.
But is it really worth spending ten years to strengthen a ghost puzzle?
Below these prompts, there is an option to turn off.
Turning on his phone, Xu Yuan found that all the people sending him messages were his relatives.
[Explanation: The hair containing the resentment of the armless female ghost Liu Yanran.]
Blinking his eyes, he noticed a new change.
[The Yin side has completed preliminary contact with the Yang side, and countless horrors have resurrected from all over the world. This is a great terror, but also a great opportunity. When fear knocks on the door, what is waiting for you may be death, or it may also be the starting point of stepping into the extraordinary! 】
[No. 5 on the Xia Kingdom Ranking List: Zou Ze, Ghost Fragment: Ghost Nail]
The enhanced price it displays is most likely the enhanced bottom price.
[Congratulations on participating in mission: Return]
"It seems that except for me, no other players have participated in other players' initial missions. I don't know whether they can't or don't dare."
The only difference is that they are all fake toppers, and he is the real one.
【Endless Horror 2.1】
The boy threw the scissors to the ground and said innocently.
With his choice, the ax in the paper man's hand disappeared, and there was an inexplicable trace of regret on the paper man's face.
"Forehead"
The effect is obvious.
Xu Yuan remembered that when Endless Horror first started last night, it was clearly version 2.0.
Xu Yuan thought for a moment, blinked, and a line of prompts popped up.
Not only has the popular mall function been turned on, but it has also turned on the protection and safety time functions.
I was busy for most of the night, washing my hair and killing ghosts.
After a while, the boy was drooling and sitting on the ground with a blank expression on his face, as if he was mentally retarded.
Compared to ghost hair, ghost shadows are ridiculously expensive.
4:50.
And underneath Zou Ze, there was another guy named Bai Yu.
"Is this a daily summary?"
"What you said upstairs makes sense, Mr. Xu Yuan, please tell me."
"I am indeed a good person."
【Your shadow is still digesting the power of ghost shadow.】
The other party has blocked him.
[You spent 5 years of your life and got a piece of paper money.]
[World Chat Room], [Xia Kingdom Chat Room], [Regional Chat Room]
This is crazy.
"Get out of here, you loser upstairs! Mr. Xu Yuan, I have 10% of Tengyi's shares. As long as you are willing to protect me, I will give you all these shares!"
Looking at the prompt under the urn, another prompt popped up in Xu Yuan's eyes.
Xu Yuan's eyes twitched and he placed the blood mist ax in the paper man's hand.
“Onlookers+10086”
[Your shadow swallows the power of the ghost shadow, and you get the ghost puzzle: ghost shadow.]
Shaking his head, Xu Yuan suppressed this terrible thought.
After sending his relatives away, Xu Yuan clicked on the mobile phone interface.
Like a curtain, the font gradually disappeared, and a series of update announcements popped up.
He clicked on the screen and returned to the main interface of the horror mall to check other functions.
【Your blood flows throughout the day, making your body more energetic.】
【lottery】
After taking a breath, Xu Yuan decided to shelve this enhanced function and never use it again.
He felt that he was really soft-hearted, facing such a kid who wanted to take his life.
"."
[You spent 5 years of your life and got a piece of incense candle.]
With a mocking smile, Xu Yuan blocked all his relatives.
Looking at the outrageous price, Xu Yuan didn't hesitate at all and clicked "No" directly.
[The top of the Xia Kingdom rankings: Xu Yuan, ghost puzzle: ghost hair, ghost shadow, cursed prop: blood mist ax]
【no】
[Explanation: "What is that black monster? Don't eat me! Help!"]
This black coffin, which can strengthen the ghost puzzle, does not look as evil as the paper man.
Speechless as he looked at the future, he could see the hints.
"agree!"
The update prompt is closed and the game interface pops up.
When I clicked on the Horror Mall, an interface that looked like a funeral supplies store popped up.
I checked the price of ghost enhancement with higher star rating.
Yang Jian, who was second, and Chen Ge, who was third, also stayed well.
"Unfortunately, I am not a life-threatening person."
And as this reply popped up, the tone in the chat room gradually became unified.
The paper man weighed the ax in his hand, stiffly raised his fingers, and made a scissors gesture.
"Abba Ababa"
But he is not included.
He actually suppressed his murderous intention and only used his newly acquired ghost power to steal the shadow of half of his head, turning him into a dementia with no memory.
Below this icon, there is a line of text.
[No. 6 on the Xia Kingdom Ranking List: Bai Yu, Ghost Fragments: Ghost Quiz]
[Second uncle: Yuanzi, your aunt and I have been on tenterhooks all night, just afraid that something might happen to you. If you are okay, just give me a message. By the way, your cousin wants to ask you, is the Xu Yuan on the ranking list you?
Don’t be afraid, if it’s you, we will keep it confidential.】
[Chen Ge: I opened a horror house in the western suburbs of JJ City. I have eliminated the dangers here. If there are survivors nearby, you can come to me for help. 】
When Xu Yuan's message was sent out, the chat room exploded, with all kinds of replies popping up.
[After rest, your legs have regained the ability to flash. 】
[The paper man thinks your lifespan is very interesting, and he is willing to give you a discount. You only need to spend 27 days of your lifespan in November 2019 to strengthen the blood mist axe. 】
"Onlookers +1"
A string of black mist floated out from the black coffin, forming a line of text.
After flexing his wrist and looking at the shadow double behind the boy who was pulling the ghost out of his shadow and beating him violently, Xu Yuan said with a smile.
The attribute panel has not changed much, except that the terror level has changed from White Resentment.
Physical awakening can make him stronger, but in order to become stronger, it would be wrong to challenge some existences that should not be challenged.
Therefore, he only needs to continue to seek death to awaken more parts of him.
[You have spent 10 years of your life to strengthen the ghost hair, and the ghost hair’s entanglement level has been increased to level ⅱ.]
[Your hands have become more tenacious under the nourishment of the Immortal Grip. You may consider developing the power of your fists. It seems to be a very enjoyable thing to tear apart the devil with your hands. 】
"."
"That's it."
If you choose to spend money here, you will end up being tricked to death by this mall.
How many people are still alive now?
Xu Yuan was going to spend some of his time later and constantly use his future vision to clean the jars.
Now he just wants to lie here and relax.
These two functions are quite friendly to players and basically eliminate the possibility of players being targeted.
【strengthen】
"Brother Xu Yuan, we are all Xia people and should help each other. Shouldn't you tell us how to get the ghost puzzle? As long as everyone can get the ghost puzzle, we can fight against the ghost, so that everyone can survive."
[Click on the urn, and 5 years of life will be consumed for the can-smashing lottery.]
Xu Yuan threw the ghost shadow into the black coffin again.
Because he knew that letting these relatives stick up would only bring him trouble.
However, among these messages, several messages seemed to be pinned, firmly staying at the top of the chat room.
How many twenty years does a person have in his life?
Under the coffin and the paper man, a clump of dirty black hair, a twisted black shadow and a Q-version icon with a blood-stained ax are emitting black air.
[1-year lifespan traded for 10-year lifespan.]
It's such a shame.
【Welcome to the endless horror world!】
[You spend 50 years of life to strengthen the ghost shadow, and the erosion level is raised to ⅱ. The large consumption of life span makes your body weak, and the ghost shadow and ghost hair begin to reversely erode your body. 】
"Is it version 2.1? When was it updated?"
Click on the ghost hair and drag it into the black coffin.
With a feeling of apprehension, Xu Yuan clicked on the endless horror icon.
The upturned corners of the paper man's mouth turned downwards, and the eyes were slowly closed with the brush, giving him a very unhappy expression.
"No, no, no. Don't!"
Seeing the prompt that popped up from Future Vision, Xu Yuan directly chose No.
[② Turn on the player protection function, and no one can see the endless horror-related information on other players’ mobile phones. 】
Xu Yuan directly chose to refuse.
[Please select the ghost puzzle that needs to be strengthened and put it into the soul coffin.]
[Trading cursed props at night.]
[Explanation: In the past, this ax was used to chop firewood. I don’t know when this ax started to be used to chop people.]
With a life span of twenty years, the cursed item can be strengthened once.
"."
It’s true to the saying: After ten years of being cold and no one asked, once you become famous, the whole world will know you.
"Brother Xu Yuan, I am willing to be your girlfriend. Let's date. It's okay even if you already have a girlfriend. I don't mind being your lover. I have a good figure, good looks, and very good skills.
Great, you will definitely like it.”
Looking at the boy sitting on the ground, Xu Yuan sighed.
"hehe."
A black-red door was opening, and through the crack of the opened door, a pale and sharp ghost claw could be seen.
[① Turn on the Horror Mall function. Players can consume their lifespan, increase the level of ghost puzzles and strengthen curse props. They can also conduct life-saving draws and trade with other players. 】
[Second place in the Xia Kingdom rankings: Yang Jian, Li Gui Jigsaw: Ghost Eyes]
There is an additional horror mall option below the properties panel.
[Gu Hongmian: Is it necessary? Although I feel that I am being targeted by life, there is really no need for that unknown existence to turn the world into this to deal with me. Are all of you in front of me monsters? 】
[Ghost puzzle: ghost shadow, star rating: ★★, attributes: ghost shadow ⅰ, shadow kill ⅰ, erosion ⅰ]
At present, the updated content has more advantages than disadvantages for players.
[Strengthen ghost hair, consumption life: 10 years.]
How come it was only one night before it was updated to version 2.1?
The most important thing is that after the version upgrade, the world will not become more terrifying.
After he sent the message, there was no reply at all.
[Cousin: Xu Yuan, you won’t be the one at the top of the list, you are too awesome. Please teach me how you dealt with those monsters last night. 】
It's just that these organs were suppressed by his body at this time, and there were no side effects.
A brand new message cannot even stay on the screen for a second before it is overshadowed by the new message appearing below and disappears.
Since his parents disappeared three years ago, his relationship with these so-called relatives has faded.
[Please select the cursed props that need to be strengthened and give them to the paper man.]
Opening the chat room at 1 o'clock, Xu Yuan seemed to have opened the door to a new world.
But he was mentally tired.
[The new features of version 2.1 are as follows:]
Xu Yuan didn't care at all about the change in the paper man's attitude.
"Big Brother Xu Yuan has appeared, come and watch!"
Without hesitation, Xu Yuan continued to choose.
Moving his finger, Xu Yuan clicked on the lottery interface.
[No. 4 on the Xia Kingdom Ranking List: Gu Hongmian, Cursed Prop: Dismemberment Chainsaw]
But Zou Ze, who was in fourth place, was squeezed out by a guy named Gu Hongmian.
[I am not the one who tops the list. Yesterday I was lucky enough to die. Second uncle, do you have a lot of money recently? Can you pay off my family’s debt? 】
Not worth it at all.
The messages on his phone were ringing non-stop just now, disturbing his sweet dreams. He wanted to see who was this blind person who bothered him so early in the morning.
A full lifespan of 50 years is enough to kill many players who don't live long enough.
I clicked on Xia Guo's chat room, and dense messages flooded down like a waterfall.
Instead of directly taking his life.
"Sure enough, this game is full of traps."
He didn't expect that consuming his lifespan would have such side effects. What was even more deceiving was that the Ghost Jigsaw on him was not the harmless skill he imagined.
[Bai Yu: The guy above, I don’t like hearing what you say. The ones in front of you are all big guys. We should hug their thighs tightly. So. The top guy, Xu Yuan, is on your lap.
Are you still missing accessories?]
This enhancement is too expensive.
However, Xu Yuan does not think that this black coffin, which can strengthen the more powerful ghost puzzle, is weaker than the paper man.
"Well, I know, I'm joking with you too, don't take it seriously."
[Third place in the Xia Kingdom rankings: Chen Ge, cursed prop: bloody skull-crushing hammer]
Now the endless horror has begun, I have reached the top of the list, and these relatives have come to find me again.
【y One-night trading has a lifespan of 1 year.】
He found that except for the world chat room, which is currently in a gray state and cannot be clicked, other options can be clicked to enter.
Xu Yuan took a quick glance and found that most of these messages were about life-saving and crying, without any nutrition at all.
"This should be the exclusive permission of the players on the ranking list."
Then with a suona sound filled with the breath of the underworld, an urn appeared on the screen.
It's a pity that Xu Yuan has no interest in exposing his true strength to these guys.
Xu Yuan carefully read these prompts and closed them.
[Curse prop: blood mist ax, star rating: ★, attributes: sharp ⅱ, crazy ⅰ]
[Player chat room (click to enter)]
Looking at these familiar names, Xu Yuan thought for a while and entered a few words in the chat dialog box.
[Enhanced ghost shadow, life span: 50 years.]
[A house transaction in the Imperial Capital has a 100-year lifespan.]
Xu Yuan sat on the sofa and checked the prompts that popped up on his phone.
Swiping his finger again, Xu Yuan clicked on the player chat room.
[Life span: 70 years, February 5 days]
He slid his finger and clicked on the personal attributes panel, and his personal status popped up.
[Player: Xu Yuan]
"."
I activated my future vision and looked around to confirm that there was nothing weird that could be imprisoned.
He guessed that there was a high probability that the guys on these rankings were like him, restricted by the evil ghosts wandering outside, so they did not interfere with other players' initial missions.
He stood up and stretched his muscles.
At the same time as the shadow double returned, a series of messages jumped out.
Instead, it is filled with ferocious ghost organs.
"By the way, Mr. Xu Yuan, which city are you in? Do you still need a pendant on your leg? I have tens of millions in property, and I can give you half of it."
"Well, it seems there are no leaks that can be picked up."
Xu Yuan felt very tired.
[The paper man is very dissatisfied with you, and the price of your future enhancements will be increased by 10%.]
After reviewing these tips, Xu Yuan was thoughtful.
After swallowing the ghost shadow, Xu Yuan's shadow double was strengthened.
"Now I should be able to maintain my temporary lead."
As a result, it took ten years of life in exchange for an improvement in winding ability.
Xu Yuan picked up the phone.
Silently closing the lottery interface, Xu Yuan finally realized that the biggest function of this horror mall was to deceive players' longevity.
He discovered that his body's ability to awaken was closely related to his own desires and dilemmas.
[Xu Yuan: After completing the initial mission, don’t leave the mission point casually, there are very scary and strange things wandering nearby. 】
"Oh, these relatives are really good."
Looking at the dark coffin that had slid open a little, there was a paper man with pale skin and blush as red as blood, a stiff smile, and open hands waiting to pick up something.
[Ghost Puzzle: Ghost Hair, Star Rating: ★, Attributes: Wrapping ⅰ, Cutting ⅰ]
But as his lifespan decreases, his body will gradually become weaker.
[You spent 5 years of your life and got a share of ashes.]
The familiar blood color lit up from the screen, and the dark words jumped in it like will-o'-the-wisps.
"Also, call me brother."
【Whether to strengthen?】
[100,000 transactions, 1 year life.]
In the end, he was unable to suppress the ghost puzzle pieces on his body, which caused them to revive and reversely erode his body.
He didn't believe that there was no decent reward in this lottery mall.
Finally, Xu Yuan clicked on the transaction interface.
"You even get one with a discount? But after all your efforts, your lifespan is only reduced to three days. Are you kidding me?"
But they didn't know that Xu Yuan had already exited the chat room at this time, lying on the sofa with his eyes closed and falling asleep.
[Enhanced cursed prop: Blood Mist Axe, which requires a lifespan of 20 years. 】
As long as he is in crisis, his corresponding body parts will awaken the relevant abilities and resolve the crisis.
[Your eyes have looked at the future, and there is nothing special.]
【trade】
This black coffin is obviously not as skinny as a paper man, and the asking price is ridiculous.
[Terror level: white resentment. Medium]
A large list of densely packed products jumped out.
There are all kinds of random products, the prices are all ridiculous, and I don’t know who posted them.
Xu Yuan simply browsed and didn't see a single product with a sincere price.
"Very good."
Turning off the trading option casually, Xu Yuan has confirmed that this horror mall is basically a waste product and of little use.
Chapter completed!
