Tower Defense Game: My Eternal Kingdom

Chapter 303
"This is today's medicine."

The old man took a deep look at Cheng Shen and didn't say anything else. He took out a package, which was bulging, as if something was struggling and writhing, and a coin-sized blurry human face bulged from time to time on the surface of the package.

If you get close, you can even hear a mournful wail coming from it.

This is "medicine"?
Cheng Shen took it calmly and held it in his hand. The special texture of the package made him feel a warm and greasy feeling like an organ.

"You killed Old John, and the nightmare he formed will definitely come to you tonight." The old man took out another item, "It can help you distract the nightmare for a night, but if you live to tomorrow."

[Acquired: Nightmare Witch Puppet! 】

……

This is a palm-sized doll, with a white body and a delicate texture, as if sewn from human skin.

The face of the puppet is painted with a funny smiley face with thick blood.

There is a long stitching mark on the back, like a hideous wound, through the gap, you can see that the filling inside the doll is a mass of black hair.

When Cheng Shen was observing, a black eyeball suddenly opened in the hair!

His heart skipped a beat, he looked away, and deliberately said in a greedy tone: "So you still have such a good thing."

He was not afraid of revealing his words. Since the old man explained the function of the doll to him, it meant that Daniel had never seen such a thing before.

The old man said slowly: "If you can pick more human face flowers for me, I can also show you other good things."

"Hope I survive."

Cheng Shen was just pretending that he couldn't really do it, even though he had the urge.

But these buildings in Nightmare Town that are exclusive to each resident seem to be more than just a safe house.

There are other effects as well.

This allows each of them to be confident in the face of threats.

Could it be that every building has the kind of terrifying monster in his back room?What exactly is that?
And then again.

How did Daniel imprison Old John?

There are too many doubts, Cheng Shen just wants to kidnap a Nightmare resident for torture right now, but unless they can get them to leave the safe house voluntarily, this plan will be difficult to realize.These nightmare dwellers are no fools, however.

"The main context is clear..."

On the way home, Cheng Shen quickly began to analyze in his heart.

"These nightmare residents have been playing a game similar to werewolf killing. Judging from what he said, it seems that this game has not only been played once, but they don't know what the outcome of winning or losing..."

"Can't lose."

Cheng Shen shook his head slightly.

This game is probably related to whether he can leave this space, or whether he will be buried here.His identity as a ghost must never be discovered.Of course, even if it is discovered, it does not necessarily mean losing the game.

A message was revealed in the tone of the woman and the old man.

On the final day of this game, a kill will ensue.

If he can kill all the normal residents as a ghost.

may.

It is also one of the conditions for victory.

Although that would be difficult.After knowing that he is a ghost, other residents will undoubtedly target him. In the nightmare, he has no supernatural powers, just an ordinary person, and he cannot deal with so many people at the same time without some special skills.

"My memory of not having Daniel is too easily exposed, and this is not going to work.

Since everyone is now looking for who is the ghost, I have to take the initiative to set up a suspicious target for them..."

Cheng Shen's eyes flickered.

The only good news is that he is still safe now, even if he is suspected of being a ghost, other nightmare residents will not easily attack him.

The old man's words have revealed to him that before the night of hunting comes, every time a nightmare resident is killed, a terrifying nightmare will be formed to target the murderer... They will never dare to risk their lives.

Hunt night...

Cheng Shen recalled the word and found it somewhat familiar.

Then quickly remembered.

Isn't this the important message he got in the temple?
The fanatics of the Temple of Sacrifice also called this night the Bloody Night.It was during the night of the hunt that the Old City fell into a forbidden land.

"Hunting... depends on whether it's a ghost hunting people, or a human hunting ghosts..."

There was a cruel coldness on Cheng Shen's face.

It was already very dark.

The streets were dark.

It was like the time when dusk was gradually turning into night, Cheng Shen could barely see the road clearly, but the black fireball in the sky burned to its peak, and a long and narrow crack that penetrated the whole body faintly emerged in the pitch black.

Like a terrifying eye watching the world.

An inexplicable panic rose in Cheng Shen, and a sense of uneasiness lingered in his heart. His keen intuition began to frantically warn, as if everything around him would turn into a catastrophe that would kill him!

The unknown twisted in the shadows quietly stretched out black tentacles wrapped in hair.

The soil on the houses on the street cracked and fell off layer by layer, revealing the piled up dead bodies.Numerous scarlet eyes opened on various parts of the corpse, and the whole town gradually fell into a terrifying blood red!
"Accidents have begun... the great terror of the night is coming!"

Cheng Shen gritted his teeth and charged forward.

The muddy ground under their feet turned into rotten flesh and blood, and the flying flies grew human faces and hideous mouthparts, like bullets full of kinetic energy, swishing in the air, and the sound of flapping their wings was shrill and piercing.

"Ugh..."

Suddenly, a strange low sound echoed between the heaven and the earth.

Cheng Shen looked back.

Just then, a large mass of dense red objects fell from the sky at an extremely fast speed.

So that he quickly saw what those things were.

Those were corpses hoisted by boundless black ropes!They are dressed in blood-red clothes, their necks seem to be strangled, their heads hang down on their chests in a strange arc, and their long black hair falls like a waterfall!
"Gan!"

"This must be the scariest and most realistic nightmare I've ever had in my life!"

Cheng Shen ran desperately, the short distance of [-] meters seemed as far away as the ends of the earth.The soft, fleshy ground carried a strong suction force, pulling his body down like a swamp!

Bang!
With a sudden struggle, he lifted his legs off the ground and jumped forward. The closed door was immediately knocked open by him. Cheng Shen rolled twice on the ground like a gourd, and then quickly got up and pushed the door against the door with his back !

"call……"

The boundless terror was immediately blocked by this seemingly flimsy wooden door, and Cheng Shen's intuition that sounded like an alarm bell gradually subsided.

"Daniel?! You lazy moth, why did you come back now! Take out my medicine!"

There were angry roars from the inner rooms.

"..."

Cheng Shen took a deep breath with lingering fear, and looked at the curtain calmly.

"The terrifying nightmare formed by Old John hasn't appeared yet, and I don't know how long a night is.

but……"

Cheng Shen slowed down and moved towards the back room.

"Although I got the medicine for free by paying in advance, and I also got a precious item from the old man, but since he is willing to invest in me, it means that he doesn't think that the nightmare can kill me..."

"Why does he think that I can fight against that kind of horrible thing?"

The answer to this question,
Seems to be clearly indicated.

If you want to deal with the nightmare's pursuit, it is obviously not enough to rely on this item alone. The key is how to borrow the power of the monster in the back room.

"It's best for them to fight for both sides..."

Cheng Shen hoped to think of it.

"One more detail..."

He played back the words and deeds of the old man like a slide show in his mind, and captured another important message.

"If he wasn't sure about my identity from the beginning, he could use another medicine to test me. This is the simplest and most effective way. I can't tell, but he didn't do it."

"This shows that in his subconscious mind, even if I am really that ghost, I can still tell the authenticity of this medicine."

"Grandma's..."

"So the normal ghost can inherit the full memory of the replacement!?"

Cheng Shen judged it immediately, and he quickly analyzed where the problem of his substitution omissions came from.

It must be the hands and feet of the devil!

So insidious!

Daniel's memory is undoubtedly his most important bargaining chip in this werewolf killing game, otherwise, he would not have the ability to pretend to be a ghost at all!

Moreover, the unlucky character Daniel has to go out to get medicine every day, and contact with other nightmare residents is inevitable. He is equivalent to holding a bright sign above his head, stating that he is a ghost!

Fortunately, he didn't meet many nightmare residents today.

fooled in the past.

But if there is no accident, he may still be exposed. These nightmare residents who participated in the werewolf killing game are by no means stupid and sweet. Many people can see his flaws at a glance like the old man!
That cunning devil had already brought him a lot of trouble before it appeared!
"It may also be involved in this game...According to the inference of criminal psychology, criminals with high IQ like this generally like to observe the victim from a close distance and gradually collapse in the sophisticated trap they weave..."

"Here is its home field, and there is no reason for it to want to miss this wonderful drama staged by me.

So its disguised identity must be very close to me..."

Cheng Shen had already walked to the door of the inner room. He stretched out his spear and parted a corner of the heavy curtain. Only the deep darkness was revealed through the gap, and something terrible seemed to be wriggling in the blur.

Before he could see clearly, a few black tentacles covered with mucus suddenly shot out from the door curtain!
Cheng Shen reacted very quickly and immediately threw the medicine bag out. The tentacles that were shot at him paused in mid-air, then rolled towards the screaming medicine bag, dragging it into the darkness and disappearing. not see.

"Crack...don't try to spy on me, Daniel! Crunch...I warned you, it will come with your death!"

The monster in the back room said while chewing something.

"what!!!"

"Wow!!!"

"..."

The extremely miserable and ear-piercing screams followed. Cheng Shen didn't dare to open the medicine bag before, but now, subconsciously, bloody scenes of fresh lives being chewed and devoured emerged in his mind.

"What is that medicine..."

Cheng Shen stepped back.

He felt that if he wanted to kill this monster, he could start from this aspect. His ability was banned, but his knowledge and memory of pharmacology were still there. If he had the materials, he could make a poison.

and.

Poison is not only used to deal with it...

In Nightmare, except for those horrible nightmares, the other Nightmare residents are just ordinary people. If he can get a deadly poison, the process of winning the game will be much easier for him.

Cheng Shen couldn't help but become active.

"You have to have a good relationship with the old man, at least you must be able to borrow his laboratory..."

So no matter how hard it is to find that face flower, he must get it back.

Cheng Shen retreated to the door, and the scarlet light came in through the cracks in the windows and the door, and the whole town was completely covered in blood.He narrowed his eyes and looked towards the sky, looking at the group of corpses hanging in the sky like bacon.

Densely packed.

There are countless.

This is the deepest and most terrifying power hidden in the deserted village...

Cheng Shen thought about it for a second, in this small town alone, the murders caused by the night of hunting were so terrible.

How terrifying would be the nightmare sinking into that ancient city...

suddenly.

Cheng Shen froze.

He has been observing Old John's house with the help of the window glass of the woman's house opposite. At some point, a pale corpse has been reflected in every glass window frame in his field of vision.

Blood and tears flowed from the two black holes on its face, especially striking on the paper-pale face.

A creepy feeling suddenly came to Cheng Shen's heart, he sweated a little, and immediately took out the nightmare puppet.

"Damn it, Daniel really abused him...but what does it have to do with me...

And isn't it that you are so special that you didn't survive to die? "

Cheng Shen complained in his heart.

"and many more……"

He suddenly thought of an unusual question.

"Since the old man said that Daniel's usual character is cowardly, how could he imprison and abuse Old John?
Aside from that, he might really be as double-faced as he pretended to be.

unless,

There is a reason to force him to do..."

This conjecture was immediately combined with the information Cheng Shen had now, allowing him to draw a comprehensive conclusion.

"The abuse of Old John should have a lot to do with taking the medicine."

"Do not……

I'll also just have my own preconceived opinion.

In fact, apart from missing some organ parts, Old John didn't have too many obvious wounds.

This is clearly incompatible with the actions of a murderer with a sadistic character..."

Thoughts flashed through his mind like lightning, and Cheng Shen might have already guessed what kind of "money" the old man needed.

"Ok?"

The moment he dazed, the pale figure reflected on the glass of the opposite house quietly disappeared.

boom,
boom,
thump...

The closed door was knocked slowly and rhythmically. At this moment, like the death bell ringing, a fine layer of cold sweat burst out of Cheng Shen's back.

"coming……"

He unconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva, holding the Nightmare Witch Puppet tightly in his hand.

Sudden.

Cheng Shen seemed to have noticed something.

He turned his head abruptly, turning his gaze from the door to the window closest to him.

He saw a face with dark eye sockets and bloody tears streaming downright looking at him.

I've been staring at him for an unknown amount of time!
