Infinite Mask Game

Chapter 12 Second Night

After Wei Miao discovered the magic circle, she put the bed curtain back.

This is a world where ghosts are rampant. Even ordinary people know that ghosts exist. It is not surprising that there are evil circle rituals. The key is that she can't understand them.

If you have to guess what this magic circle is for, is it to prevent corpses?Pisa told her not to touch the things on the seventh floor, because this ritual is actually to restrain ghosts?
But this ceremony... is too evil, isn't this world kept running by "defeating evil with evil"?

She walked out of the room and deliberately closed the door.

Next, she checked the other rooms, and without exception there was a magic circle under the bed, and the condition of the door was the same as that of 701.

Room 713 was once again an exception. Its door was the same as that of the downstairs, and the switch did not make a frictional movement.

Of course, she checked carefully, and found that 713 had nothing else to care about except the sacrificial circle.

Wei Miao went to the seventh floor tonight, not only to see if there were any missing points during the day, but also to verify her conjecture.

她把701到706的门全部关上，在701到703门缝处分别夹了一根洛林略长的金发。707到712的房门开着。

713 keeps the door closed, the only difference is that there is an extra hair between the door.

In biological experiments, there is often a saying of controlled experiments. Wei Miao set up multiple control groups this time, corresponding to various situations. When she wakes up tomorrow morning, she will know whether her guess is correct or not.

As for the destruction of the arrangement... Wei Miao considered the temperament of the three of them, and felt that it was impossible for them to come to the gloomy seventh floor at night. If they really did such a thing, she would give them a higher look.

When I returned to 306, it was almost eight o'clock.

Wei Miao turned on the TV. Although she didn't know why a long series of TV programs were produced in the game dungeon, it was still an effective way to obtain information.Generally speaking, in order to reduce the computing load, virtual online games use fixed video clips similar to cutscene CG to provide necessary information, but it is very rare to make large sections of CG.

"The nightmare incident in the slums that took place in Colin, Conrad some time ago has been basically brought under control. Unfortunately, many poor people died in this disaster, and the number of casualties has not yet been counted. The anomalous organization Ghost World has declared responsibility for it... "

"...A month ago, the Spirit Elimination Society found traces of the Eye Spirit Sect's activities in Dick City. After careful arrangements, it took down the branch of the Eye Spirit Sect yesterday, and killed or captured a large number of peripheral members. The Eye Spirit Sect responded No statement."

Wei Miao saw it after ten o'clock. During this period, she briefly followed entertainment programs, documentaries, etc., to understand the customs of this world.

For players, exploring the world background is also part of the fun of the game.

"Tuk-tuk-"

There was a knock on the door, and Wei Miao opened it to see that it was Anderson, holding a pillow and quilt in his hands.

He smiled: "I'll come to sleep with you tonight."

When Wei Miao heard this, her expression became weird at first, and then she remembered the two people who planned to spend the night together during the morning meal.

She showed a spring-like smile and gave up her seat: "Please come in."

After entering the door, Anderson first noticed the turned on TV: "Are you watching TV too?"

"Yes, I think the TV is pretty good." Wei Miao said perfunctorily.

Anderson didn't regard himself as an outsider at all, and sat down beside her bed ostentatiously: "I will trouble you to squeeze a seat tonight, two big men, it shouldn't be a big deal, right?"

That's not necessarily... Wei Miao said coldly in her heart.She has a certain degree of cleanliness, let alone a strange man, she is not too happy to sleep with a strange woman in the same bed as her.

This has nothing to do with appearance and figure, it is purely a personal habit.Having said that, another characteristic of Masquerade Ball is that it weakens the interference of appearance on player choices.

Everyone wears a mask, who knows if there are people or ghosts underneath?Even if a fake body is used like this dungeon, but the fake body is assigned by the system, and the appearance value will be taken into consideration in the game balance as the corresponding advantages and disadvantages.

But she didn't show it at all: "Of course."

Anderson: "What are you going to do if there are footsteps tonight?"

"Pretend to be asleep."

In fact, Wei Miao is not sure that her guess is completely correct, she can only pray that Anderson will not become the pig teammate who killed her.

Anderson nodded.

The two talked for a while later, and it was mainly Anderson who was asking, and Wei Miao responded indifferently.

Unexpectedly, Anderson turned out to be a good talker, chatting all over the world.

When it was past eleven o'clock, Wei Miao proposed that it was time to go to bed. The reason was that going to bed early and getting up early was good for health.

So, turn off the lights, lock the door, cover the quilt, and go to bed.Anderson chose the side next to the door, probably because he knew the ghost would go to the other side of the bed.Wei Miao had no objection, and moved herself to the edge of the bed, keeping as far away from Anderson as possible.

While Wei Miao was in a daze with her eyes open, the time gradually came to twelve o'clock.From the sound of Anderson's breathing, she could tell that he was not asleep either, especially when it was close to twelve o'clock, his breathing rhythm became a little rapid.

He is really cheerful when chatting, but really timid when encountering ghosts.

Wei Miao remained calm, staring at the clock until the pointer pointed to twelve o'clock.

"Boom-thump-thump-"

Sure enough, footsteps sounded on time.From the corner of her eye, Wei Miao saw Anderson's body tremble.

What happened next was the same as last night, first the sound of the door opening, and then the sound of swaying footsteps.Wei Miao opened her eyes furtively again, but still saw nothing.

At one o'clock, the movement finally subsided.From twelve o'clock to one o'clock, Wei Miao pays attention to the time, the ghost disappears very punctually, just like those prisoners in the prison, they can only come out for a walk at a certain time.

I don't know how Anderson slept tonight, but she slept soundly afterwards anyway.

In the morning, it was Anderson who pushed her to wake up, and the dark circles around his eyes became heavier again, but he looked faint and refreshed.

He asked her strangely: "Did you fall asleep again last night?"

Knowing about the presence of ghosts, it is not reasonable to say that he fell asleep again, so Wei Miao said: "No, I heard the footsteps of ghosts."

"Then you slept so well, aren't you afraid?"

"I'm afraid. But with Brother Anderson around, I'm not so afraid." Wei Miao was full of nonsense.

During the chat yesterday, Anderson bragged to her that he used to be a big brother in school and was doing well in society.Wei Miao just made up a not-too-outrageous reason according to his words, maybe she could gain a good impression.

Anderson muttered something, picked up his quilt and pillow, and seemed to be planning to go back to his own room.

His performance last night was quite satisfactory, and he managed to be an ostrich the whole time.If he breaks the defense on the way, Wei Miao has already considered the solution.

She would kick him off the bed, let him taste what the ultimate shock is, and exercise his courage.Don't let the mud fail to support the wall in the possible big scenes in the future.
