Chapter 457 BOSS·Owner of the Manor, the Boundary between the Past and the Present
“The number of people has become smaller.”
The oppressor ghost stepped down from a dead foreign ghost controller and resumed Returning to Cao Yang's back, Cao Yang let out a heavy breath.
“This ghost thing is awesome, but it’s a little too heavy. Fortunately, my previous ghost was pretty good, otherwise my old waist would have been crushed.”
Xiong Wenwen had a look on his face. He felt disgusted, but he didn't say anything, just thinking about something absentmindedly.
If he were in this state during a supernatural incident, he might have died a long time ago. Now that there are many ghost masters in this area, it stands to reason that he should die faster.
But he still survived, under the protection of Cao Yang and a paper man.
Liu San naturally went to other places to score points. The only one who stayed here was just a paper man to help protect Xiong Wenwen, who was not too aggressive, and to avoid distracting Cao Yang.
"The number of foreigners I met there has also decreased a lot. Depending on the situation, this is probably the only amount. But it's not bad. A full one or two hundred points is already a good profit."
Liu San’s paper man said.
Cao Yang laughed after hearing this, "Yes, the most expensive character card of Endless Cemetery Master Luo Qian only had 40 points, and Zhang Xianguang's 30 points, Ye Zhen's 15 points With our current accumulation of points, I'm afraid we can completely sweep away the points mall."
Xiong Wenwen spoke at this time, pouring cold water on him as soon as he spoke, just like before, "Look at how embarrassed you are. If it’s Brother Yuan, I’ll just revamp the points mall and add a few zeros behind the points cards to see if you can still laugh!”
Liu San’s paper man looked over with a look on his face. He said seriously: "The store manager is very disciplined. I believe he would not do such a thing. It is too bad of character."
Cao Yang also said solemnly: "Lao Liu is right. . You are still too young to understand how much someone like a store manager attaches importance to reputation. It is absolutely impossible to change it at the same time."
Xiong Wenwen curled his lips and did not continue. Because he also felt that Cao Yang and Liu San were right, but he always felt that something was wrong.
It's like, are Cao Yang and Liu San such people that they have absolute trust in one person?
Lin Yuan was also paying attention here. When he saw the paper figures of Cao Yang and Liu San winking at Xiong Wenwen behind his back, he couldn't help but laugh, "Are these two guys planning to kidnap me morally? ”
He finally understood.
Cao Yang and Liu San are not as worried as Xiong Wenwen. On the contrary, they are more worried about the depreciation of the points in their hands, and this so-called welfare bureau may turn into a disaster.
That's why I said this and was so determined, because I wanted to use this statement to kidnap Lin Yuan and make him embarrassed to change the price of card points in the game mall.
However, is Lin Yuan moral?
“Of course there is, but as a game planner, GM, and NPC, you still have to maintain the balance of the game from many aspects. If the props in the game mall are sold too cheaply or too widely, it will destroy the balance of the game. , that would be boring. I am still planning to continue running this virtual game, but it cannot be destroyed like this.” It took the Wang family and his wife to have such a welfare bureau, but now it seems that when new cards are put on the shelves, the price of the original cards must be considered.”
“It is not appropriate to reduce the number of points. Imprisoning a ghost is worth one point, and killing a ghost master is worth five points. If it is further reduced, there will be no minimum unit. We still have to reduce the value of the points, or add a zero after the price of the card? "< br>
While Lin Yuan was thinking about the balance of the game, Cao Yang suddenly shuddered, and his exaggerated look made both Xiong Wenwen and Liu San look over in confusion.
"You also know?" Liu San's paper man asked.
Cao Yang rubbed his arms and asked doubtfully: "What do you know?"
"That's right, you don't have the ability to predict, and you can't send out paper figures like me." Liu San muttered, and then said, "My paper man was found on the other side. Chen Qiaoyang is fighting a terrible enemy. He is a foreign old man, and you should also know him."
Cao Yang was stunned for a moment, "Do I know? I don't know any foreign ghost controllers in this era, and in reality I know one who should appear at the Peace Hotel... You mean the king and the owner of the manor, He has also entered the game? Can his strength be evenly matched with Chen Qiaoyang? "
Although I don't want to admit it, Chen Qiaoyang's strength is really terrifying.
Calculated based on time and age, Chen Qiaoyang should be the ghost master of the same era as the second generation of the Wang family, that is, Wang Lu and his wife. The title of ghost herder is enough to prove that he is not in vain.
Especially.
Chen Qiaoyang once coveted the Wang family's supernatural pendulum clock. For this reason, he went to Dadong City... to steal it.
Based on the time and the contents of the diary, it can be speculated that the time should be within the last ten years, and it will definitely not exceed the time of the diary written by Wang Lu in the year of Ding Chou. .
At this point in time, the first generation of the Wang family must have died, and then turned into ghosts due to the blood curse, driven by Wang Lu.
How could Wang Lu be so soft-hearted in the face of an enemy who came to snatch a supernatural item like a restartable supernatural pendulum clock, and still keep his hands on Chen Qiaoyang?
But the result is that Chen Qiaoyang was able to escape the attack and killing of the dead souls of the Wang family, but was imprisoned in the Wang family's ancestral home in Dadong City, which is enough to prove his strength.
This is also the analysis result of the think tanks at the headquarters, and we will speculate based on this result.
Chen Qiaoyang will be at his strongest when there are powerful ghosts around him to control, but even if there are no other ghosts around, just the four ghosts around Chen Qiaoyang are not something that ordinary captains can deal with. Come on.
In this game, Chen Qiaoyang had dozens of ghosts around him.
When they attacked Cao Yang and the others, they only allowed these controlled ghosts to take action, and they were already forced to the point where they could only protect themselves and had no ability to fight back.
If Chen Qiaoyang's true form takes action, they may be in trouble.
Although he didn't want to admit it, Chen Qiaoyang was indeed much better than them this time, and he was probably playing tricks on them to retaliate for his provocation at the Peace Hotel.
If they hadn’t happened upon the Peace Hotel, I’m afraid they would have been out by now.
Thinking of this, Cao Yang wanted to give himself a slap in the face. He didn't regret provoking Chen Qiaoyang, but regretted not calling more captains.
He and Liu San were no match for Chen Qiaoyang.
How about adding a few more captains?
As the top ghost controller in the new era, he is unable to face the store manager. Could it be that he cannot even fight against an older generation who was born just a few decades before him?
What about the manor owner?
As a foreign king, the manor owner has a terrible reputation, but he is only competing against domestic captains, who are their contemporaries.
Even if the owner of the manor enters the game, can he really face the ghost herder Chen Qiaoyang, who has controlled many powerful ghosts and is in excellent condition?
No, no!
The owner of the manor is not young now, he is in his fifties or sixties. Could he be a figure of the same era as Chen Qiaoyang?
Cao Yang was a little skeptical, "Is it a supernatural characteristic? Just like the ghost realm of ghost paintings suppresses all other ghost realms, but Li Jun's will-o'-the-wisps can easily spread in the ghost paintings?"
Of course, when considering the supernatural state, the store manager, Peace Hotel, and White Mist Ghost Domain are automatically excluded. They are not on the same level of existence.
Liu Sandao: "Maybe, but we should still go over and take a look. In any case, Chen Qiaoyang is our compatriot, can he still be bullied by foreigners?"
"I think we still need to find it. Wei Jing is the most important. He controls the power of ghosts. We have almost killed all the foreign ghost masters around here, but we haven't found Wei Jing yet. He won't encounter a bigger crisis, right?" Yang Dao looked at Xiong Wenwen and said, "Foretell it."
Xiong Wenwen glanced at him, crossed his arms, raised his head and uttered two words: "Please!"
Cao Yang glanced at Xiong Wenwen and then at Liu San's paper figurine.
“Got it.”
Liu San's paper man nodded and turned his back, seeming to be looking at something, "I think Wei Jing should be in this direction, it seems to be there. I'll go over and have a look first."
"Liu San Three, your eyes are broken too?!" Xiong Wenwen was amused by this poor acting, but he smiled and found that he suddenly grew taller.
No, it’s not that it’s grown taller, it’s that it’s been lifted up.
He turned his head angrily and saw Cao Yang's brilliant but extremely dangerous smile. His face suddenly turned pale and he swallowed, "What, what do you want to do?"< br>
The smile on Cao Yang's face did not diminish, "Don't sound like I want to bully you. In fact, I have also thought about whether to take a teacher qualification certificate. Now, I can do it on you first. Let’s have a look, maybe I really have the ability to be a teacher?”
"You, you, you, you...don't mess around...Help! Kill the child!!!"
Listening to the movement here, Liu San, who had walked several hundred meters, sighed and muttered. : "Although this is a game, it is still in the store manager's ghostland. Otherwise, how could there be such rich emotions? And..."
Liu San's eyes shifted and came to the distance. It is located more than ten kilometers away from Dadong City.
With the advantage of paper figures, Liu San is completely instinctive in collecting information, including the map itself. He also wants to see outside Dadong City.
But unfortunately, the farthest paper man he walked was blocked, and what blocked his path was the high wall made of white mist in front of him.
Looking up, you can see the wall-like white mist extending upwards, almost connecting to the sky, and the top cannot be seen at all.
He also tried to look upward through the ghostly rainbow, but even if he reached the limit of this paper man, when he looked down, the entire Dadong City turned into a sesame dot, the same The limit of this wall of white mist cannot be found.
On the contrary, at such a height, he could see this... game map more clearly.
With Dadong City as the center in this era, about ten kilometers away from the edge of the city... it should be 19 kilometers, it will be blocked by white fog, forming the white mist where he is now. Wall of fog.
This kind of wall is obviously impossible for them as players to pass.
It clearly looks like mist, but when touched, it feels indestructible, but this seems to be only for people like them.
It has no blocking effect on people of this era, whether they are ordinary people or ghost masters, whether they are Chinese or foreigners.
Liu San can see it.
On the road under his feet, a caravan was slowly walking into the wall of white mist. The people in the caravan were talking and laughing, but no one could observe the wall of white mist. wall. "This is the game map, just like the previous game map in Taiping Ancient Town, but it was not discovered at the time. Now that the boundary has been determined, there is no need to think about anything else. Wei Jing will definitely be on this map. But where are they now? Why can’t they be found?”
There are some special beings among Liu San’s paper figures, which contain some evil spirits and possess the supernatural powers of evil spirits.
Although it is impossible to use it without scruples like the aliens, it can also be used as a desperate trump card. Simply using the ghost domain like now is naturally a simple matter.
Under the effect of the ghost domain turning into a rainbow, Liu San didn’t need too many paper figures at all to detect everything on this map.
In order to avoid misunderstanding and out of fear for the Wang family, he did not fly over Dadong City in a swagger, lest he was suddenly hit by an anti-aircraft gun and lost a paper man.
Subsequently, most of the paper figures gathered together in a small valley, where a fierce confrontation was taking place.
Chen Qiaoyang and the manor owner!
Cao Yang and Xiong Wenwen also rushed to the scene one after another. Perhaps because they noticed the presence of several people, or for other reasons, Chen Qiaoyang and the manor owner, who were still fighting, stopped and separated.
The manor owner still uses a cane, but his current condition is very poor.
The body had a variety of injuries, including wounds from knives and axes, deep bones, and edema from being soaked in water for a long time. It was obvious that he had endured a huge attack.
But he was not dead yet, but the cold breath became stronger, and there was a corpse smell that was still nauseating even hundreds of meters away.
Chen Qiaoyang's condition is much better.
His body only has a large area of grayish-white color, and this grayish-white color is still slowly reducing, and it is estimated that it will return to normal in a few hours.
As well as the four ghosts around him, none of them are missing.
But his face was very ugly. He glanced at Cao Yang and the paper figures coming from all directions, and sneered: "Are you treating me like a drowned dog?"
Cao Yanghe Liu San looked at each other and said, "There are no monsters nearby, so I came here to take a look."
Chen Qiaoyang joined the game as a player, so he naturally knew what Cao Yang and the others meant by "weird". But the owner of the manor didn't quite understand.
He still doesn't know what happened.
After arriving here in his own horror manor, he obviously wanted to come out and ask for directions, but he met such a terrifying and terrifying guy like Chen Qiaoyang.
Now, from what Cao Yang and others think, do they regard themselves as so-called "weirds"?
“It’s true that I have been underestimated. Although I don’t know exactly where this place is, it must be God’s arrangement. You guys are the opponents God has arranged for me, right? In that case , then kill you. All of you, become sacrifices to my god!"
The manor owner's tone was high, like some kind of aria, which made Cao Yang and others' expressions change slightly.
The surrounding sky suddenly darkened, a thick darkness began to spread, and a layer of strange shadows began to emerge, as if some supernatural place was about to come and replace reality.
Behind the manor owner, an old and terrifying castle appeared.
"This is the ability given to me by God, to summon the horror manor to come! You all should stay and become sacrifices to please my god!"
The owner of the manor smiled ferociously, turned and walked away Entered the gate of Gubao.
Seeing that the surroundings had completely changed, and the original scenery could no longer be seen, Cao Yang said with a solemn expression: "Really, we are obviously just here to make soy sauce, why do we have to start breaking through?"
"This guy is very scary. He should be the boss after clearing the level. Even if not, he is still an early boss. Chen Qiaoyang, let's form a team together." Liu Sandao.
Chen Qiaoyang sneered: "I won't team up with waste."
Waste? !
Cao Yang and Liu San narrowed their eyes at the same time, hiding their inner anger, but neither of them took action and just watched Chen Qiaoyang leave.
"Xiong Wenwen, make a prediction." Cao Yang said.
"Hmph!"
Xiong Wenwen was obviously unhappy. He was still full of resentment towards Cao Yang, but he did not talk back to Cao Yang, but used his precognitive powers.
The cold atmosphere began to spread, and Xiong Wenwen became more and more like a ghost.
Cao Yang and Liu San stood there, protecting Xiong Wenwen while watching Chen Qiaoyang rush towards the Horror Manor.
Just when I broke through the vegetable field, strange things happened frequently.
The scarecrows inserted everywhere started to move, holding various tools, trying to kill Chen Qiao Sheep. It was difficult to prevent them, but fortunately they were not scary.
The biggest harm, that is, the concealment, makes it difficult for people to think of it at the first time. The attack is on the ordinary level and not worth mentioning.
At this time, Xiong Wenwen screamed in horror, shrank into a ball, and his body could not stop shaking.
"What's going on? What did you predict?" Cao Yang hugged the naughty kid and asked in a low voice, "Don't be afraid, it's just a future. You are fine now."< br>
After a period of comfort, Xiong Wenwen finally With some relief, he took Cao Yang's arm and cried: "It's so terrible here. We are dead. We are all dead. We were made into scarecrows and hung in the vegetable field. I don't want to become Scarecrow, don’t become a scarecrow!”
"It's okay, it's okay. Everyone is fine now. Tell us, what happened?" Liu San asked.
After a long period of comfort, Xiong Wenwen finally calmed down and said everything he had just predicted. It was actually very simple.
Among the three of them, Cao Yang and Liu San are both captain-level in strength.
The vegetable field below was not too difficult for them at all, but the difficulty was that after entering the manor, they were directly attacked by the manor owner as soon as they entered.
Under the sneak attack of a top king, Xiong Wenwen was the first to die without any possibility of struggle.
Cao Yang and Liu San chose to fight for their lives, but in this manor there was not only the manor owner, but also many powerful gardeners besieging them.
Among these gardeners, the most common ones are ghost controllers who control two ghosts, and there are also several who control three.
Coupled with the extremely powerful manor owner, even if Liu San finally chose to use the old corpse to revive, he did not escape in the end and became one of the manor owner's trophies.
Liu San is a paper man with no skin.
But Cao Yang and Xiong Wenwen were there, so they were skinned by the manor owner, made into new scarecrows, and placed in the vegetable field outside the manor.
"It's really disappointing news. It seems we have to wait for news about Chen Qiaoyang. I hope he can turn this manor upside down so that we can fish in troubled waters." Liu San said thoughtfully.
Cao Yang looked solemn, "This is the suppression of hard power. There is no other choice. You can't make a comeback without fighting hard."
Xiong Wenwen said in disbelief: "No, you guys Aren't you afraid of that kind of future? "
"It's just a possible future. If we don't go into the manor, can he still take me in?" Liu San said matter-of-factly.
Xiong Wenwen thought about it for a while, and it seemed to be right, and his expression suddenly recovered a lot.
Liu San glanced at Cao Yang, "I don't know what Wei Jing is doing. If he were here, he wouldn't have made things so troublesome."
"Yes, Wei Jing is doing it. What?" Cao Yang also sighed.
So, what is Wei Jing doing?
Under normal circumstances, he is naturally a player, fighting against foreign ghost masters in the game. Just like before, Lin Yuan put Simon Cowboy's double-barreled shotgun into it and created a Similar ghost masters from this period.
It’s just that Wei Jing’s ghostly powers are exaggerated. As long as he is not faced with a terrifying supernatural being that can directly kill him, he will quickly grow to an incomprehensible level.
In the original mysterious world of recovery, this was also the strongest ghost, but its poor performance later made it difficult for people to have such a sense of identity.
But in fact, his reputation as the strongest may be a bit watery, but his ability to grow is definitely beyond the reach of ordinary ghosts.
The ghosts who have grown up will not be killed easily by the tall male corpse that revived after Li Qing's death like Wei Jing in the virtual game ZS City Caesar Hotel.
Such a terrifying supernatural being is actually a very good... carrier!
Now, Wei Jing is walking in the white mist ghost realm, which is the "map boundary" that Liu San could not enter in any case before, and he is trying to get out.
He had not been walking here long, and there was still an endless white fog in front of him, but he stopped at a certain moment.
"This is the border. After you step out, where will it be? Is it a place of nothingness, or... will you truly be integrated into this era?"
Wei Jing?
No, it should be said to be Lin Yuan.
I don’t know when, he has taken over Wei Jing’s body and started...exploring this era.
