Chapter 98 The Prophecy of Inevitable Death
Chapter 98 The Prophecy of Inevitable Death (Eleventh Update, Seeking First Subscription!)
The vengeful ghost in "One Missed Call" is not the same as the vengeful ghost in "Mysterious Resurrection".
Like many horror movies, the vengeful ghosts in this film are sentient and intelligent.
Some people find ghosts with emotions more terrifying, while others find ghosts that only kill according to rules more terrifying.
Lu Ming clearly preferred the latter.
As he can do now, he can exploit the weaknesses of the former team to set up a trap for the other team of challengers.
It is known that vengeful ghosts use victims' mobile phones to make random phone calls in search of their next victim.
Now let's consider a scenario.
If all the contacts in the victim's phone address book are deleted, will the vengeful ghost stop killing?
the answer is negative.
Even after Mizunuma Mimiko transforms into a vengeful spirit, she still retains her own consciousness.
If you discover that someone has tampered with your contacts and deleted all the numbers, the situation may change unexpectedly.
Stopping the killings is impossible.
However, if Lu Ming only deletes a portion of the numbers, the effect will be completely different.
Mizunuma Mimiko kills randomly, so she most likely wouldn't realize that her contacts had been tampered with.
Using this, Lu Ming could completely "control" Mizunuma Mimiko, making her kill the five people in the other team first, so that he could focus on completing the extra task.
With this in mind, Lu Ming opened the phones on the table one by one, and sure enough, there were phone numbers of the two teams of challengers in the contacts.
It was also thanks to the fact that when they entered the instance, the panel in front of those dark figures revealed their names.
Lu Ming deleted the other contacts in his address book one by one, leaving only the numbers of the other five challengers and a few fabricated empty numbers.
He then had Sadako hack into the phones of the other five challengers via the internet and make the same changes.
In fact, the other five challengers also obtained basic information about Lu Ming when they entered the instance.
But this is basically useless.
Even in team-based competitive dungeons, you cannot directly engage in hand-to-hand combat to kill others.
Trying to use talismans or witchcraft to kill someone from a distance would violate the rules of the Main God Space.
Replicating Lu Ming's actions would be even more difficult.
Knowing the plot in advance, possessing the Ghost Realm, having the strength to cover any unforeseen events... the conditions are too demanding.
If a team has the confidence to participate in a four-star difficulty team battle dungeon, then the challengers must be quite strong.
They can only blame their bad luck for running into a freak like Lu Ming.
···········
After returning from the restroom, Lu Ming quietly returned the phone he had casually taken.
Everything was normal, as if nothing had happened.
Then Yoko's phone suddenly rang.
Someone called her, but the ringtone was different from usual, sounding very strange. The rhythm was slow, but it didn't sound peaceful or beautiful at all. Instead, it was inexplicably creepy, giving her goosebumps all over her body.
Yangzi was startled when she heard the ringtone, and it took her a while to realize that it was her phone ringing.
But this wasn't the ringtone she had set for her phone at all.
"Excuse me... I need to take this call..."
Yangzi hesitated for a moment before taking out her phone, about to answer, when she discovered that the call had just been disconnected.
The number that called was none other than her own mobile phone number.
With slightly trembling fingers, Yoko clicked on the message. After reading the content, her pupils contracted slightly.
"Yoko, what happened?"
"My friend Nakamura Yumi asked with concern."
"N-nothing...it's probably just someone's prank." Nakamura Yumi leaned closer to look and discovered that Yoko had received a message from the future.
More accurately, it was a death prophecy.
Yoko will die in two minutes.
Upon opening the voice message, a heart-wrenching scream came from the phone; this seemed to be the last words Yoko left behind before her death.
The scene fell into an eerie silence for a moment.
The boldest of them all, Kenji, smiled and said, "It's probably just a prank, just like Miss Yoko thinks."
Even so, Yoko's expression was still unusually unpleasant, appearing extremely pale.
If it's just a prank, there are many things that don't make sense.
Why was the caller's number Yangzi's own?
Why is it that the voice coming from the comments is indeed Yoko's?
Chen Xin and the others exchanged glances and formed a general judgment in their minds.
The vengeful ghost is about to start killing people.
This time, the vengeful ghost's target is the character from the original instance.
This is a great opportunity; we might be able to figure out some of the ghost's patterns.
Time passed by minute by minute.
The expressions of everyone present were very solemn. They did not believe in ghosts, but what was happening was so illogical that it made them suspicious.
Kenji tried to ease the tension, laughing, "We're all sitting together, what could possibly happen to Miss Yoko? I don't believe that a biker gang on a flying motorcycle will storm into the restaurant and hurt someone in two minutes."
Kenji's silence was fine until he spoke, which, like providing some kind of hypothesis for a death prophecy, made Yoko even more frightened.
Yumi Nakamura glared at him, her eyes telling him to shut up.
One minute later.
The sound of arguing came from not far away. It seemed that a customer had found an insect in his food and was causing trouble for the kitchen.
Yoko stared intently at the wall clock directly in front of her, watching the second hand tick away.
Two minutes will be up quickly.
The arguing grew increasingly shrill, and Yangzi felt her mind was in a jumble; she couldn't hear anything except the arguing nearby.
Cold sweat had unknowingly soaked through Yoko's back, her lips were blue, and she didn't even know what she was thinking.
Five seconds, four seconds, three seconds...
During the countdown, everyone heard a clang, and something in the distance was launched into the air.
It was a fruit knife.
The fruit knife traced a complete arc in the air before accurately embedding itself in Yoko's head.
Blood splattered out and spilled onto the dishes on the table.
Like slicing a watermelon, a crack appeared in Yoko's skull, and brain matter mixed with blood kept flowing down. It was hard to imagine that a fruit knife could have such power.
Yoko didn't die immediately, but felt a sharp pain. Blood made her eyelids stick together, and through her blurred vision, she vaguely saw the terrified looks of the crowd, and a dark blue-green ghostly hand...
The death prophecy came true; Yoko indeed died two minutes after receiving the ghost's call.
Moreover, the piercing screams emitted were exactly the same as those in the recorded message.
Apart from Lu Ming, no one noticed that Yangzi's fallen corpse was still tightly clutching the cursed phone in her hand.
The phone's buttons were slowly pressed one by one, as an invisible, vengeful spirit controlled Yoko's phone to dial the next number.
