Chapter 14: The Sound Of Sharpening Knives At Night
“In this era, the mall is worthy of being one of the top ten forbidden areas. It really is evil.”
Looking at the silent shopping mall that was like a beast of flesh and blood, Su Yue felt inexplicable pressure, like a tide.
This mall should be full of people during the day.
But after nightfall, everything changed.
Evil spirits breed, evil comes, and the entire city no longer belongs to humans, but to dark creatures!
If you don’t rely on Jiang Ruoxue’s strength, if you just go in by yourself…
It is estimated that the evil spirits inside will soon be able to enjoy a delicious meal delivered to the door.
Therefore, Jiang Ruoxue’s golden thigh must be firmly embraced!
【congratulations! Lucky player, you have arrived at Times Square in the West District, the Times Mall in the middle of the night, there are many surprises you can’t imagine, the next task: the sound of sharpening knives in the Times Mall in the middle of the night. 】
[Task introduction: The Times Mall was quiet in the middle of the night, but you heard a faint sound of sharpening a knife in it. You curiously entered the mall to find the source of the sound through the unclosed fire escape. 】
[Task reward: A incomplete sales receipt. 】
[Mission failure: Deduct ten years of lifespan, if the lifespan is not enough, you will die directly. 】
It seems that because of the mission, the strange shopping mall that was shrouded in the dark night, there seems to be a strange sound of sharpening knives in that building.
“I can’t understand this reward.”
Frowning slightly, looking at the reward column, Su Yue was slightly puzzled.
It’s not the most conventional lifespan reward, nor is it a ghost puzzle.
“Perhaps, this is a special item that can be used in the future?”
Just as Su Yue was thinking, the selection system was triggered at the same time.
“Ding! Because of the Times Mall, you triggered the decision of fate!”
“Option 1: You think the strange sound of sharpening knives in the middle of the night is too scary. If you refuse to enter the Times Mall, you can get a reward: one-star ghost puzzle: tattered cotton shoes taken off the feet of the dead!”
“Option 2: You are curious about the source of the sound in the mall, and decide to accept the quest. Go in and find out, and you can get a reward: 2-star resentment crystal*1!”
“Crystal of resentment?”
Looking at the reward of option two, Su Yue was a little surprised.
He actually saw this slightly unfamiliar name once in the spiritual mall.
It is also a two-star, and the price is as high as a hundred years of life!
As for the function of the resentment crystal, you can choose a piece of ghost puzzle that is one level lower than the crystal star, and strengthen it!
The success rate of strengthening resentment crystals under four stars is 100%! It is much stronger than the probability of strengthening the mall!
Therefore, the price of a two-star resentment crystal is as high as one hundred years of life!
If you want to get this kind of precious reward from the task issued by the supernatural world, that task is probably the difficulty of nine deaths!
You must know that Su Yue’s initial mission was to enter the restricted area of the Linhe ghost house.
In the whole world, apart from him, almost no one else can do it! It can be called a ten-dead-to-life proposition!
Even so, the reward is only ten years of life, plus a two-star ghost puzzle.
Now the system only needs to make a choice by itself, and can get a two-star resentment crystal, I have to say… the plug-in is really fragrant!
Don’t think about it, definitely choose to enter…
Before deciding on his choice, Su Yue suddenly braked and asked with his mind…
“Ruoxue, if I enter this restricted area, there shouldn’t be any danger, right?”
“Don’t worry, Xianggong, I will protect you!” Jiang Ruoxue’s voice came from Su Yue’s mind, connected through the contract.
That’s good, suddenly don’t panic!
“Choose to enter Times Mall!”
After making the choice, a diamond-shaped gray crystal appeared in Su Yue’s hand, revealing an unusual luster.
After playing with it for a while, I put it in the props warehouse.
With Jiang Ruoxue’s words, although this Times Mall still exudes a strange atmosphere, Su Yue did not hesitate.
Integrate the newly acquired one-star puzzle ghost clothes and ghost palms, and enter the mall directly through the safe passage.
Inside the mall.
In the huge commercial building, there are some figures of “people”.
Just in front of Su Yue, there is a table in front of the shop, and a person is lowering his head, concentrating on the lunch in front of him.
It’s just the smell of the lunch box. In addition to being rotten, there is actually a fishy stench that makes people nauseous.
In the central area of the first floor of the mall, there is an elevator leading to the second and third floors.
“The sound of sharpening knives…”
After observing for a while, Su Yue secretly shook his head.
The strange sound of sharpening knives was not on this floor. He planned to go to the upper floors to find out.
The situation on the second floor is similar. There is a billiard hall not far from the elevator entrance.
Several stiff-faced “people” were playing billiards with a straight face.
Su Yue took a look and found that their billiard cue ball was actually made of eyeballs!
I don’t know where they found such strange eyeballs.
Eyeballs the size of an adult’s half fist rolled around on the table.
The black pupils kept turning as they rolled.
Whenever the side of his pupils turned to Su Yue, Su Yue felt as if he was being peeped. UU reading www. uukanshu.com
When the eyes rolled to the other side, the feeling of being peeped disappeared.
“That eyeball…is alive!”
A terrifying fact was quickly obtained. Su Yue guessed that the eyeball might also be a kind of evil spirit creature?
“It’s not the second floor, that’s the third floor.”
Looking up at the third floor emitting a miserable green light, Su Yue had an intuition. In the mall, the third floor is the most terrifying!
According to his observation, those “people” who play billiards sometimes look at the third floor inadvertently, with a hint of fear in their expressions!
When Su Yue officially entered the third floor, there was an extremely strong overcast wind oncoming, and the temperature of his body dropped rapidly.
This gloomy and coldness is like the substance, it is obviously just a gloomy wind, but there is a faint trace of resentment and madness in it!
As soon as he went up to the third floor, Su Yue felt a great difference from the first two floors.
No wonder the strange evil spirits on the first and second floors are afraid of the third floor!
“Sure enough, it’s on the third floor!”
There was no unnecessary sound on the third floor, and the faint sound of sharpening the knife became much clearer at this moment.
Following the sound, Su Yue came to the door of a shop.
The door of the store is a rolling shutter, which can be pulled down to half the height, just enough to accommodate a person bending over to enter.
Above the shop, the big characters “Zheng Kee Roast Meat Shop” are flashing red! Revealing a madness!
“A barbecue restaurant…”
After a while, Su Yue entered the barbecue restaurant.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw a huge wooden board with various pieces of meat placed on it.
Around the huge wooden board, there are tables and chairs covered with dark red.
The sound of sharpening the knife was still inside, Su Yue walked to the deepest door, reached out and pushed the door open…
