Chapter 213 Pier 5
The misty sky turned dark without knowing when, a pale yellow hung on the horizon, and the entire dead old city was shrouded in an atmosphere of unspeakable sadness.
White mist mixed with smoke and dust billows in the street.
Abandoned carriages, blood stains, dirty debris and fallen trash cans are everywhere.
Jilan was walking alone on the street. The doors and glass of many shops on both sides were broken, and even large holes were exposed in the walls. Bricks and gravel were scattered all over the floor.
This scene couldn't help but remind him of the scene when Brak City encountered war... and this city was also experiencing war.
And is suffering from some terrible mysterious violation.
As he walked along, he could tell from the newspapers flying on the ground and the posters posted on the walls that the Munich Empire was at war with the Toulouse Federation, and for some unknown reason, the city of Peel became the focus of competition between the two sides. A city.
Crack!
Just as Jilan passed the door of a hotel, a police officer wearing a blue uniform and a dome-shaped iron helmet with a short brim rushed out and waved a metal baton at him.
Bang!
Gilan retreated and stepped out of the way.
The baton was swung into the air.
The police officer had suddenly changed, his facial features were frozen in a horrified state, and his head was twitching and shaking, which was very strange.
“It’s this kind of monster again.”
Jilan looked coldly and threw out the ax.
The demon-hunting ax passed through the cold light and cut off the police officer's head with just one blow.
The head fell to the ground, but it was still twitching!
When Jilan saw this, he immediately reached out and touched the other person's body. The colorful light flashed away, and the points jumped from "215" to "218".
Mutation police officer, 3 points of mysterious energy.
On the road, he met several residents or police officers who had undergone strange changes, and they all looked like this. His expression was horrifying, and his head was twitching and shaking.
And difficult to kill...
Even if the head is cut off, they can quickly grow new ones. This immortality is even greater than that of Orlando, the mad exorcist.
But when he met Jilan, he was restrained.
Because as long as they reach out and become corrupted, they will have no time to be "resurrected" and have no choice but to turn into points.
At this time.
Jilan raised his head and glanced at the sky, realizing that night was about to fall. And the dim sunset was already glowing with red light.
“Master, Weiwei feels in danger.”
At this time, the little familiar said nervously.
"It seems like something is coming from the sky. If you don't hide, something bad will happen..."
"Yeah." Jilan frowned and looked away.
He looked around and simply took Weiwei into a hotel on one side.
It was very dark inside. Gillan found a few candles in the utility room behind the front desk.
Then, go straight upstairs.
There was no one in the hotel, it was empty.
He found a random room, went in, locked the door behind his back, and moved a counter to block the door.
After a while.
The sky is getting dark, and a blood moon is rising slowly.
The street outside the window seemed to be soaked in blood, turning into a scarlet world.
Wow!
Ji Lan's expression changed slightly and he immediately closed the curtains.
The blood-colored moonlight gave him an extremely dangerous feeling, as if as long as he was illuminated, he would be polluted by strong miasma and have some unknown influence.
Even if he is a level 1 spiritual mystic and is protected by the Kingdom Brand, he will not be able to last long.
"You can't go out at night in Old Pier. Once you are scorched by the blood moon, the consequences will be disastrous."
Gilan murmured, lit the candle, and simply stayed in the dark hotel Sit in the room all night.
When the sun rose the next day and the blood moon set, he left the hotel and continued his action.
However, Gillan had no idea where the other contestants were. After several fruitless searches, he simply gave up and focused on hunting monsters.
Anyway, the film can be watched over and over again. He plans to start with the other two groups of contestants the next time he watches the film.
Next, he wandered around during the day, hunting down mutated residents or police officers, and hid in buildings at night to avoid the blood moon.
Another day and a half passed.
It was the evening of the third day.
Gilan arrived at the heart of the old city.
After this period of hunting, the color number in the corner of his sight has reached "261", which can be said to be a fruitful harvest.
Next, he wanted to see the end of the movie.
Directly in front is a 100-meter spiral tower, made entirely of gray and white stone, with a strong classical charm.
Its existence is incompatible with the surrounding urban buildings and quite abrupt. It was as if it was forcibly moved here from other places by some force.
Stairs lead to five-meter-high double doors. There are exquisite patterns and reliefs carved on the stone door. It shows countless stars surrounding a full moon, and countless little people dancing around.
"God's Chosen Tower..."
Jilan murmured the name of this spiral tower.
He waited for a moment in the square. As the sun set, a figure in a white dress came from the street.
The girl with twin ponytails held the boning knife in her hand carefully.
As she approached, the gate of the tower slowly opened, making a loud rumble.
"Huh?" Jilan was a little surprised. "She is the only contestant left?"
Recalling the scene in Apocalypse's dream, there should be a fight in front of the tower at the end.
Although the liar Iman and the traveler are both dead, what about the actress?
‘It seems that my intervention caused the plot to change. ’
Jilan thought to herself as she watched Maiev walking into the God’s Choice Tower with a look of surprise and uncertainty. Not long after.
The door to the God’s Choice Tower slowly closed again.
Woo——
Woo——
Woo——
The air defense sirens suddenly sounded throughout the sky.
Noise and vertical spots began to appear in the surrounding field of view.
Gilan let out a long sigh and automatically left the movie.
After he recovered from watching the movie, he looked at the picture on the curtain, which was fixed on the spiral tower under the blood-like dusk.
On one side, white subtitles such as a list of actors and acknowledgments of behind-the-scenes staff began to scroll.
Finally, as the picture fell into darkness, the words of thanks left by the "director" slowly emerged:
"You won this game. My friend, William ·Gerrard..."
Gilan frowned as he looked at the words of thanks.

For the next week, he spent the next week in seclusion, either watching movies in the master bedroom or taking notes and studying "Old Peel #2" details and character plot lines.
During the second viewing of the movie, Gillan tried not to get involved in the plot and stood aside the whole time.
This time, the five-member team did not conflict with the old beggar. Instead, the other party kindly reminded them not to wander outside at night to avoid being exposed to the moonlight.
Therefore, veteran Kulin did not die under the mysterious power of the old beggar. Instead, he and reporter Olin were shot to death with a crossbow by the traveler Eamonn River in the air defense bunker.
After Kulin transformed into a bandage gun monster, he chased the boxer Junior to death.
The liar Iman and the red-haired female student Lilia escaped separately, and the traveler also survived.
Watching the movie for the third time.
Gillan chose to join the first team. That is, the team of the old man in black, the actress in red and the fat businessman in red suit.
As the plot develops, they will arrive at an abandoned clothing store. Actress Jen Sean was attracted by those beautiful dresses, but she was attacked by four model dummy monsters.
The fat businessman Satuk Kapo was the first to escape.
In order to survive, the old man in black clothes, Luchi Fior, pushed the actress towards the monster, turned around and ran away. The traveler then shows up and rescues the actress from the mannequin monster.
At this time, Gilan knew that when he first watched the movie, he killed the traveler, so the actress was not saved and died here.
What follows is as predicted in Gillan's "Apocalypse Dream".
The fat businessman felt tired and hungry after running for his life. He stopped in a restaurant and looked for food. However, he was chopped to death with a kitchen knife by the monster pig-headed chef in the restaurant and stewed into broth.
After the pig-headed chef ate the broth, an even more terrifying mutation occurred. He directly grew to a height of 2.56 meters, holding a ferocious bone chopping knife that was one meter long and half a meter wide.
Jilan tried to fight with him, but found that he couldn't beat him at all, so he had to retreat.
The old man in black clothes escaped to the sewer and was eaten by the salamander monster in the sewage. This monster also undergoes a second mutation, seemingly because the contestant's corpse possesses some kind of energy.
The mutated salamander monster is as scary as the pig-headed chef, and Gilan also dares not to provoke it.
"Sewer Salamander, pig-headed chef, whose strength exceeds the 'Super Limit' level, and is tentatively classified as 'Unknown'."
Watch the movie "Old Peel #2" in Gillan "Research Notes", he wrote this sentence with a fat belly pen on a notebook full of handwriting.
There are additional brackets at the end: "It may be equivalent to a third-level spiritual mystic. Just speculation."
Watching the movie for the fourth time.
Guillen joined the second team.
That is, the familiar duo, the team of folklorist Maiev and doctor Brennan. These two people were his "old acquaintances" when he first watched the movie "Moonlight Village #1".
Gillen follows the two of them through the old city of Peel and explores an abandoned orphanage.
Doctor Brennan accidentally touched a Ouija board placed on a desk in a classroom, which triggered some mysterious power and disappeared instantly.
When Gilan and Maiev found him, they found that he had been hanged on the flag-raising platform in the open space at the side of the orphanage.
The doctor then mutated and turned into a headless white-robed monster, armed with a needle whip and a bone saw, and attacked.
Also consistent with the revelation of the "Apocalypse Dream", Sanna Arzu, a goth girl with smoky makeup, jumped out and blocked the fatal blow for Maiev, and died on the spot.
It was also through this plot that Gillan learned that this Goth girl was Maiev’s classmate at the southern college. Because she had always had a crush on Maiev to the point of madness, she had been together all the way. Follow her and even board the train together.
Gilan had never intervened in the plot before. Only then did he propose that Maiev should leave first and he should stay behind.
Soon after he and the doctor mutated into a headless white-robed monster, the Gothic girl began to mutate and turned into a skinless monster lying on the ground like a spider.
Seeing this, Jilan directly activated the secret skill "Bathing in Blood", and then used the Justice Cane to use the "Pisces" sword on himself, hitting his legs to stimulate his potential.
Then he ran away in a flash.
The two monsters were left to fight in the open space on the side of the orphanage.
After waiting for more than ten or twenty minutes, Jilan returned and dealt with the seriously injured headless white-robed monster.
Thus it is easy to get the points of these two monsters.
Coupled with the four mannequin monsters he killed during his third viewing of the movie, the color number in the corner of Gillan's sight reached an astonishing "341" point!
Afterwards, Gillan returned to the classroom in the orphanage and found the Ouija board that caused the mysterious death of doctor Brennan.
As soon as I picked it up, colorful entries appeared:
“Lotherthus Ouija Board. It originated from an ancient medium named Lortheus Horne. The Ouija board is made up of the skulls, sternums and finger bones of twelve magicians with magical powers. It has mysterious divination power."
"Divination is affected by specific things, and the success or failure of the divination is unknown. , will lead to terrible disaster."
"Sprinkling occult dust on the Ouija board before divination will save you from the cost of a failed divination."
After Jilan got this mysterious item, he was very happy and put it directly into the dimensional space.
With the prompts from the colorful entries, he knew the correct way to use it, and naturally he would not be in trouble because of it.
As I continued to watch and study movies, time soon came to the last day of September.
The day of the long shot.
