His logic was even more dizzying. A 100% success rate, but also a 100% mortality rate. At least no player present dared to put it into practice. Putting aside other things, where could they possibly get a fully compatible doctor identity?
As the world spins, players are more concerned about what to do now. Everyone is like a small boat, trying to find a support point.
Wen Shi approached the host little by little.
Unlike the owner of the castle, the host's worldview did not collapse, but he simply changed his career direction, so he did not burst out with the murderous power of the count when he went crazy and did not recognize his relatives.
Feeling a presence approaching, the host raised his eyelids defensively, but when he looked up, he saw Wen Shi's encouraging smile, "I'm with you."
Mirage didn't know what had gone wrong, and everyone was in a panic. The special guests, paired guests, and even the staff were all at a loss as to what to do. Only the cat-eared young man was firmly approaching him as the world was collapsing.
"The world may waver, but our passion for work will not!"
The players who had resisted 996 in the previous instance now expressed their immense passion for their work. This kind of inspirational quote might be useless to others, but for the host, who was also working hard, it was like meeting a kindred spirit!
The moment he stood next to the host, Wen Shi finally felt safe.
The game will not kill the core NPCs easily. The castle owner is so crazy, but the game still lets him live. There is no reason for the host to die.
The closer you get, the greater your chances of survival!
Wen Shi looked at the host, and the thin and scarred cat tail was wrapped around the scarecrow.
After the host's propeller chopped off half of its wings, Big Eyeball could only fly at low altitude. The wind in the city was all whirling wildly, and without its tail, it would have been blown away long ago. Its tail avoided the missing hind wing with incredible flexibility, and the end even gently touched the scarecrow's head to comfort it again.
Ji Yuanzhi was also moving towards the program crew nearby, his glasses a little crooked due to the violent shaking. He couldn't help but sigh when he accidentally saw this scene. This man might have been an acrobatic Ouroboros in his previous life, who could close the loop and hold both ends.
Suddenly, Ji Yuanzhi spotted a black spot in front of him and shouted, "Get on the hearse!"
The roads and buildings were collapsing, and the world collapsed into black and white snowflakes. Only the area in front where the hearse was still colorful.
The hearse, abandoned by the players, now resembled a piece of driftwood. Everyone stumbled towards it. The lightning overhead was thick and long, each lingering for a duration far beyond the laws of nature. The entire sky seemed to have opened its bloody mouth, ready to devour everything below.
After finally getting closer, I saw two hearses parked on the side of the road.
One was the burnt one they were originally riding in, and the other was intact.
"Dad." A Sang stuck his head out of the window of the good car.
Through the transparent car window, you can see that he is the only one up there.
Wen Shi was about to talk to A Sang when a ding sound suddenly rang in his ears.
"Where are the rest of the people?" At the same time, Sun Geng ran over and asked hurriedly.
Ah Sang was in a good mood when he saw Wen, and answered in a good-tempered manner. He knocked on the edge of the bowl and said, "Pah, it appeared, and pah, it disappeared again."
Describes something vividly.
Sun Geng breathed a sigh of relief. If his relatives were an illusion, then they were now free from the choice. If they were real, then they were probably safe now, at least they did not appear in the mirage that was about to collapse.
"Get down here quickly..." he shouted, "Get another car."
Regardless of the choice, the player will originally leave in a burnt hearse, which is the only vehicle that can take them out.
Ah Sang looked at Wen Shi and followed his gaze. Wen Shi had already prepared to get out of the front door when Liu Yun, who was nearby, grabbed him and said, "Not this one."
Wen Shi also knew that it was not the case.
He turned his head and reminded the other party: "
Liu Yuan received advance notice of the banned dungeon."
Liu Yun was startled, then suddenly realized: "Doesn't that mean..."
Wen Shi nodded.
Even if they didn't jump into the coffin and stayed in the village, they might still accidentally enter the ghost gate in some way. This is because this was originally a trap dug by the game, but some drastic changes occurred during the process.
Wen Shi said helplessly: "To be exact, you may not come down. The game is just to make full preparations, but I will."
Liu Yun was puzzled.
"There's a mission. Let me get on this car."
The others must not have received it, otherwise Sun Geng would not have asked A Sang to change the car, and Liu Yun would not have stopped himself.
Tian Wanling and the others had already boarded the burnt hearse. They were hesitating for something, and they shouted, "Hurry up!"
Liu Yun glanced at Wen Shi, who shrugged and said, "You go first."
Others staying behind won't be able to help with the single-player mission. The most important thing is that the car he is going to get on is unusual and it may lead to two different places than the player. Anyone who enters without receiving the mission is courting death.
"Be careful." Liu Yun naturally knew this, so he gave a warning and turned around to jump into another car.
The player in the car saw that only Liu Yun was there, and was about to call Wen when she stopped him and explained the situation: "Pei Wenwei still has a solo mission."
The road where the hearse was located was not shaking too much. Wen Shi was about to get on when he noticed a figure following behind him - it was the host.
"Cars coming from the water curtain will lead to the second section of the ghost world passage," the host asked as he came up, "What are you going there for?"
Except for him, the rest of the staff had already boarded the charred hearse.
"I have something to take care of." Wen Shi was even more curious about why the host followed him.
As if aware of his doubts, the host took the initiative to speak: "I will ensure your safety within my ability."
The amplified decibels echoed in my ears.
The host took off the newly replaced microphone on his bow tie and spoke at a normal volume: "Only you are alive..."
Wen Shi continued with an indescribable expression, "How can you continuously provide firsthand information about Frank Hospital?"
The host nodded, that's the truth.
Faced with such a self-righteous response, Wen Shi wanted to say something but couldn't find the words. He had never seen such a crazy workaholic. It would not be an exaggeration to say that he was pathological.
There was also confusion in his big eyes. He was sold but still counted money for others to such an extent. No host could do it better than him.
"Dad." The ignored A Sang ran over from the last row.
Wen Shi was too lazy to explore the host's psychology. The core data of the NPC was the game settings, which meant that although these ghosts were powerful, their data flexibility was not as good as that of a powerless human. He sat down in the first row holding the child.
The hearse door slowly closed, the red lights flashed briefly, and it quickly and steadily moved along the road. Sitting in it, one couldn't feel the bumps of the sloping road at all.
"Comfortable." Wen Shi, who had been carsick for most of the day, sighed.
Compared with the drift hearse, the driving standards of this car can be regarded as a model in the industry. At least it has a driver.
The driver was a dough figurine over one meter long, with a face that was sculpted to look lifelike and coated with a thin layer of wax. Perhaps because the raw material was soft flour, its face did not have the ferocious look of an ordinary NPC, but instead appeared extremely artistic.
The two hearses departed at about the same time, not too far apart so that the passengers could see each other.
The player looked at Wen with some worry in his eyes. He had to complete the task just after he was out of danger. It seemed like the game was trying to make things difficult for him.
Wen Shi himself was quite open-minded. He opened the window and said, "Remember to meet me up there."
The reward for the Crazy Dice quest is a high-level Ever-Bright Lamp, which can confuse ghosts for a longer period of time. The item didn't reach him, so it must have been given to the player who was leaving. Fengguan Village is full of ghosts today, and without the Ever-Bright Lamp, it would be difficult to leave.
, he needs someone to meet him at the cemetery.
Diagonally across from him, Ji Yuanzhi made an 'ok' gesture.
The shadow of a door appeared where they had first entered. The door surface gradually solidified, visibly solidifying until it transformed into a large gate woven from countless red spiderwebs. The hearse the players were in suddenly accelerated, and the red door swung open from the side, and the hearse rushed through with all its might. When it was Wen Shi's turn, the red door turned black, swiveling and opening in another direction.
The first car was heading towards the light, with white light leaking in after the door opened, while the second car was heading towards darkness. When the rear of the car passed through the black door, the whole world suddenly became extremely quiet.
The engine noise, tire noise, wind noise, etc., even the noise made when the car is driving normally, have disappeared.
I don't know if there's something wrong with his hearing, but in such a quiet state, Wen Shi couldn't even hear his own breathing.
Having almost experienced a copy collapse a few minutes ago, the sudden silence did not affect him too much. Wen Shi was seizing the time to review the task content again.
When the system was broadcasting just now, he was still struggling to stand steady, and he didn't hear some of the content clearly.
[Special Mission: Sealing the Coffin
This is a door that should not be opened. At midnight on July 16, the Ghost Gate will be closed again, and the two coffins at the entrance and exit will be merged into one.
Please find the hidden world fragments on the way to the ghost world and use the fragments to seal the ghost gate.
Note: Since this fragment is out of the control of the world will, the game cannot perceive it, so it cannot provide more useful information.
The last hint carries a hint of resentment.
Can't sense the aura of this fragment?
interesting.
Wen Shi raised an eyebrow. So Yugi not only lost his things, but couldn't find them again? Then he discovered twelve crystal spikes and a small hammer in his backpack.
Wen Shi couldn't help but twitch his lips. Finding the fragments, sealing the coffin, and nailing it shut—why did this process feel so much like patching? Or the kind that's done manually, physically?
After determining the content of the task, he finally had the mood to pay attention to the surrounding environment.
Wen Shi asked the only person present who knew something about the ghost world, "What did you mean when you said this car would lead to the second section of the ghost world passage?"
The host said with disgust: "You country bumpkin, you don't even know this and you dare to get on the bus."
But he also loved to show off his knowledge, and he raised his pointed chin with great pride: "The way to the ghost world is through three sections: Mirage, Ghost Highway, and Lookout Mountain. We will soon enter the Ghost Highway."
The lights in the car were on, and the host wiped the dust off his face with a handkerchief. He seemed to have suddenly thought of something, and his eyes became a little erratic.
Wen Shi caught his subtle expression and said in an admiring tone, "You know a lot."
The host continued, undeterred by the compliment: "Actually, a long time ago, these roads didn't exist until someone forcibly opened a gap in the ghost world."
Wen Shi was very good at psychological induction and threw out an introduction to keep the topic going: "I heard that the ghost world is more suitable for ghosts to survive."
This was information bought from a deformed man at the ghost market.
Host: "The ghost world is also called the Mirror Flower and Water Moon. To put it bluntly, it is an illusion. Give ghosts hallucinogens, make them feel euphoric and addicted, and then voluntarily become trapped in it."
"…" You are good at using metaphors.
"The official records of what exactly happened have been sealed. I heard from a senior at the main station that a cunning human instigated the trapped ghosts to rebel. With their help, he forged a breach and even took some of the ghosts away." The host's tone became sharp and cold again. "Ah, a bunch of idiots, risking their lives for a single human, and even being brainwashed."
Wen Shihe's big eyes blinked at the same time.
The host felt something was amiss when he said this. Before he could think too deeply, Wen Shi quickly spoke up: "And then? Where did they go?"
In the silent carriage, the host suddenly
The host looked at him with a strange expression. When Wen Shi was about to get goose bumps, he said coldly: "How do you think Frank Hospital came about?"
At the moment when his expression lost control, Wen Shi asked directly: "Doesn't Frank Hospital have a long history?"
The host actually said as a matter of course: "The location was just chosen at a certain time in the past. What's so surprising about that?"
Past, present... Wen Shi finally realized a problem. In the eyes of these NPCs, going back to the past is a very normal thing.
It's like a live broadcast of a time travel. For them, returning to the old times is nothing surprising.
He murmured, "Can the past be changed?"
"It's not about change, it's about making history," the host said, a little irritably. "He simply went back in time and founded a hospital. The ghosts are still imprisoned in the hospital. But ordinary people certainly couldn't do that. That human was able to do it because he had true spirits among his followers."
Wen Shi didn't ask any more questions, and the carriage fell into silence again.
"Dad." A Sang called out worriedly.
Wen Shi realized that the arm holding him was a little tight, so he loosened it.
After a long while, he finally came to his senses, lowered his head and muttered to himself: "That's why there are those two rules: be generous and kind, and take in patients when you see them..."
On the wall of Frank's hospital office, there are iron rules that every employee must follow. He once used these rules to threaten Ao.
The original purpose of establishing the hospital was to provide a home for ghosts, but why did it become like that? Dean Ao is not human, so he is definitely not the original founder.
Wen Shi's fingers clenched little by little, until his knuckles made a crackling sound.
Seeing that his expression was not right, the big-eyed girl poked the dimple on Wen Shi's face with the tip of her wing. However, Wen Shi continued to recall to himself: "Rule 3, Friendship Day. The sixteenth of every month is Friendship Day."
The Ghost Gate opens on the 15th day of the seventh month and closes the next day.
The monsters accepted the friendship of humans, escaped from the ghost world on the 15th, and were reborn on the 16th, which was Friendship Day.
