Who invited the witch into the eerie game?

Chapter 78 Whose demigod is so socially awkward?

Reason is rapidly declining.

Surprisingly, Tan Qi felt that she was still rational.

This must be due to the strange object 031 in my hand.

It must be like this.

Regardless of the mysterious messenger behind the scenes, she must first deal with the bizarre Ding Haoyuan in order to escape.

Looking at Ding Haoyuan's strangely tilted head, which was turned 90 degrees, Tan Qi had a bold idea.

She unveiled the silk covering the mystery item 031 for the first time.

The tourists who were celebrating nearby stopped what they were doing, and Ding Haoyuan was also stunned.

It wasn't that they wanted to stop; they stopped out of instinct.

Tan Qi ignored these circumstances and instead held up her magnifying glass of happiness, shining it at Ding Haoyuan's head, which was tilted 90 degrees.

In an instant, Ding Haoyuan's head, which had been turned 90 degrees, became the size of an eight-immortal table.

Boom!

Ding Haoyuan's head hit the ground.

No matter how hard he struggled, he couldn't get up.

He tried to roll over, but his thin neck couldn't support him at all. If he tried to roll over, he would probably be separated from his head as easily as a fly having its head rubbed off.

"run!"

Having successfully subdued Ding Haoyuan, Tan Qi continued her escape, clutching the magnifying glass of happiness.

This time, she didn't encounter any strange obstacles and successfully escaped the music festival.

As soon as she escaped, Tan Qi saw many audience members walking towards the music festival, chatting and laughing.

Turning back to the music festival, one could hear vibrant, rhythmic music emanating from within, making those who heard it want to go inside.

"Stop! Stop!"

Tan Qi shouted loudly, "725 Bureau is handling this matter, everyone turn around!"

But as soon as she shouted, Tan Qi noticed that the staff and audience members at the ticket gate were all giving her strange smiles and looking in her direction.

Without a doubt, it was the strange thing inside that made the messenger realize what was happening.

The bizarre is spreading.

She's being targeted.

escape!

Left with no other choice, Tan Qi had to continue her escape.

This time, after escaping for an unknown period of time, Tan Qi reached an intersection.

She saw the big tree by the roadside and came up with an idea.

Boom boom boom!

The next second, the trees on both sides of the road fell down, completely blocking the road.

Who is it?

"Damn it! I'm going to a music festival, what are you messing around with here?"

"Are you crazy? Does becoming a player mean you can do whatever you want here?"

Players attempting to drive to the music festival stopped.

"It's the 725 Bureau's job!"

Tan Qi showed her identification and said breathlessly, "This road is blocked! Which of you are players? You've been conscripted to block this intersection!"

"You think you can just conscript people like that?"

One of the players got out of the car and said in a low voice.

"Just look at this one I have!"

Tan Qi showed off the strange object 031 in her hand, the Happy Magnifying Glass.

"Hahaha, 75 rounds and you get a toy—a toy—a toy—"

One player, unwilling to accept defeat, looked at Monster031, wanting to say a few sarcastic remarks, but before he could finish speaking, he exploded into a pool of polluted mud.

Tan Qi's expression changed.

Only then did she realize that after escaping the carnival music festival, she hadn't had time to wrap the magnifying glass of happiness in silk.

However, from another perspective, if happiness were magnified and encased, she might not be able to escape.

After spending the last two days together, Tan Qi was certain that the mysterious creature 031 was conscious.

Because Su Xiaoshuang lent it to her personally, she is entitled to possess it.

It wouldn't work with anyone else.

This is also why Captain Zhou Daoshen lost his composure after seeing the strange creature 031.

The Mysterious Object 031 is very picky about its surroundings.

It is allowed to be held.

However, it is not allowed to be placed in the game terminal.

It is not allowed to be put into any box.

Silk was the only compromise.

At the same time, it allows Su Xiaoshuang to call it a toy, but that doesn't mean everyone has the right to call it a toy.

This player who ended up in a mess is a result of speaking recklessly.

"Murder!"

Someone gasped in surprise.

"Quiet!"

Tan Qi said, "I'll reiterate once again, I am Tan Qi, a special investigator from Bureau 725. All of you players have been conscripted."

"I'm not threatening you, but if you try to escape, you'll only die faster."

"The family members you want to protect will also die."

'

A 19-year-old boy stepped forward and asked, "I'm a player. I'm fine being conscripted. Can you tell me what happened? Has something strange happened over there?"

"right."

Tan Qi did not hide anything: "We are currently in the early stages of the bizarre transformation, so I need to control the situation."

"Okay, we'll help you!"

The 19-year-old boy said with a firm expression, "Hello everyone, I am Du Ning, a freshman at Shanghai University, and also a player, Sequence 6."

"Players, please step forward and follow my instructions to build a defense against the bizarre here."

Du Ning?

Someone nearby recognized Du Ning.

This story originated five years ago from a self-media outlet.

The story is about a little boy who, when he was born, his grandparents sacrificed themselves to protect the safety of the town's residents, along with a newly born, eerie demigod.

When the boy was 3 years old, his father died in a battle to stop an evil god from descending.

It is said that the little boy's father had died long ago in that battle, but with his unwavering faith and will, he persevered until his teammates arrived.

When the boy was 5 years old, his mother was infected while treating patients with severe pollution and died on the operating table.

After that, the little boy and his brother depended on each other for survival.

However, when the boy was 14, his older brother, like their father, died in a battle to stop the arrival of an evil god.

From then on, the boy was all alone.

He is Du Ning.

Faced with the concern of her superiors and interviews with the media, 14-year-old Du Ning said with a firm expression: "One day, I will inherit that number."

The number Du Ning mentioned was the special forces member number that her father and brother had used.

31055610.

"Okay, count me in."

Upon learning that it was Du Ning, one player after another stepped forward and began to work together to build a defense against the bizarre transformation.

Tan Qi breathed a slight sigh of relief and immediately made a phone call to report: "Captain Zhou, something strange has happened at the music festival. At least 3 people are currently trapped inside. I almost couldn't get out."

"What?!"

Zhou Daoshen of Bureau 725 almost jumped up in anger.

The fact that Tan Qi almost couldn't get out shows just how powerful the bizarre events at this music festival must have been.

You should know that Tan Qi has the Mysterious Object 031 in her possession.

It must be some strange messenger!

"Please stabilize the situation first, I'll arrange for personnel to cordon off the area immediately!"

Zhou Daoshen quickly issued the command: "Su Xiaoshuang, is she there?"

"Su Xiaoshuang didn't come."

Tan Qi said, "I only planned to investigate today; I haven't had a chance to go find her yet."

J

11

Zhou Daoshen was considering whether or not to send Tan Qi to find Su Xiaoshuang.

In just a second, he made a decision: "Go find Su Xiaoshuang quickly and ask her for help."

To be able to produce the Mysterious Object 031 and treat such a dangerous object as a toy, Su Xiaoshuang must be at least Sequence 3, or even Sequence 2. As for whether she might be Sequence 1, Zhou Daoshen didn't dare to think about it.

Even if we take a step back and assume the bizarre transformation activated by the eerie command spreads, the entire city of Shanghai will be covered.

At that time, no one will be able to survive.

He had to use any means necessary to survive.

Even if Su Feng were to emerge from the bizarre game, he might be sent high into the sky and shattered into a beautiful firework.

However, if he could turn into beautiful fireworks before he died, bringing joy to those who saw it, Zhou Daoshen felt that such an ending would be quite good.

Bureau 725 acted very quickly, and soon established a protective zone around the music festival.

The players who provided assistance should temporarily step back.

Taking advantage of the fact that someone had taken over, Tan Qi quickly rushed to Tianhai Manor.

"Excuse me for bothering you again, the bizarre process has begun, and I would like to request your assistance."

"...

'

Su Xiaoshuang, holding the magic book, was stunned for a moment, not expecting Tan Qi to be so efficient.

She would help as long as Tan Qi found the magic book; this was a promise that could not be taken back.

"Okay, wait a moment."

Su Xiaoshuang said.

She's currently wearing a casual T-shirt; she needs to change into a witch's robe.

A few minutes later, Su Xiaoshuang came out wearing a witch's robe: "Tell me the details."

"It's like this, like this, like this—"

Tan Qi recounted all the strange events she encountered on her way to the music festival.

Su Xiaoshuang nodded. This sounded very dangerous. One silver ring shield was too little; she needed more.

More than an hour later, Su Xiaoshuang and Tan Qi arrived at the outer edge of the cordoned-off area.

Residents in the surrounding area have been evacuated.

Theoretically speaking, strange occurrences in the vicinity should cause panic.

However, instead of causing panic, many players and non-governmental organizations participated in maintaining order.

Some people even volunteered to get into the music festival to resolve the crisis.

However, all of these were rejected by Bureau 725.

What a joke.

The investigators and combat personnel from Bureau 725 who were initially dispatched to the music festival were all captured.

Letting these players in makes absolutely no sense; on the contrary, it will only accelerate the spread of the bizarre phenomenon.

According to information provided by Tan Qi, the music at the music festival has a brainwashing effect.

Seeing so many people, Su Xiaoshuang pulled down her witch hat.

She was scared because there were so many people.

"This way."

Tan Qi led the way.

Su Xiaoshuang quickly followed, soon passing through the security cordon and entering the inner area.

"Who is that person in the witch's robe? Is this cosplay, or just normal player attire? So cute!"

"Being accompanied by investigators from Bureau 725 means you're definitely not an ordinary person."

"I feel like I've seen her somewhere before?"

"I think I've seen this before."

"Don't talk nonsense. If you really saw it, would you be standing here?"

"...

—

The onlookers laughed as they spoke.

Without a doubt, no ordinary player can solve any bizarre incident.

In particular, this time, players saw many Sequence 7 and Sequence 6 Bureau 725 investigators appear.

These people were supposed to be the main force entering the bizarre zone, but they were used to establish defensive perimeters and maintain order.

"Even the weird stuff at the last comic convention wasn't this big, was it?"

Someone said in a low voice.

"Why isn't it there?"

An insider said, "The legendary demigod directly bombarded the barrier of the Bloody Comic Con for half a day, and so many days have passed, but there has been no news of the Bloody Comic Con turning into a game."

"Hiss, could this long-haired pink witch be a hidden demigod from Bureau 725?"

"I don't know, but what demigod would be so socially awkward?"

"————"

Su Xiaoshuang and Tan Qi approached the music festival venue.

This area has become eerie.

Once inside, Tan Qi realized that she had finally managed to escape, so why did she have to come back in?

I was originally there to guide Su Xiaoshuang, but I ended up here without really knowing where I was going.

What's even stranger is that when Su Xiaoshuang came in this time, the mind-controlled audience nearby seemed to completely ignore them.

"So many people————"

Su Xiaoshuang lowered her witch hat again, trying her best to avoid attracting other people's attention.

As she walked, she sensed that something was off about her surroundings.

She didn't seem so scared anymore.

How should I describe this feeling?

It feels like we've stumbled into an area teeming with strange monsters?

"What's wrong?"

Tan Qi asked in a low voice.

She panicked when she came back in.

"It's nothing, they all seem to be dead."

Su Xiaoshuang said calmly, "If he's not dead yet, he'll be soon."

Tan Qi took a deep breath.

She witnessed Ding Haoyuan turn into a bizarre monster with her own eyes, but she never expected that everyone here would turn into a monster.

In addition, Su Xiaoshuang's change in demeanor is also quite outrageous.

Suddenly, I'm not socially anxious anymore.

Su Xiaoshuang looked at the setup of the music festival venue.

There are multiple stages here, with the main stage area being the most lively.

The people performing on the main stage weren't a normal band, nor were they weirdos; they were players.

The most outrageous thing is that these players are clearly not from Earth, but from another world.

"How is that possible?"

Su Xiaoshuang looked puzzled.

Did the game start as soon as this place became eerie, inviting players from other worlds to participate?

Five players are forming a band, and they are performing on the main stage, looking very absorbed in the experience.

The audience below the stage danced wildly to the music, seemingly thoroughly enjoying themselves.

However, some viewers did not seem to enjoy it.

Their faces were ashen, lacking passion, and they gradually stiffened into gray stone sculptures that seemed to dance on their own.

As they jumped, they scattered into a pile of ashes.

Nobody cares whether they live or die.

Standing beside Su Xiaoshuang, Tan Qi witnessed the deaths and mutations of some audience members and clearly sensed her own sanity rapidly declining.

Not to mention the inhuman musical rhythms; it felt like I was going crazy.

But it was under these circumstances.

Tan Qi remains standing intact, maintaining her individuality, and has not shown any signs of contamination or corruption.

"Are you all still able to remain rational?"

Suddenly, a player drinking a large bottle of cola ran over, looking at the two with a strange expression. "Come on, come with me to the Silent Zone to regain your sanity, or you'll soon turn into these mindless monsters."

"If you lose your mind, you will either suffer a direct mental death and become a walking corpse, or your cognition will be reconstructed, turning you into a twisted monster that will frantically attack sane people."

Tan Qi looked at the large bottle of cola in the player's hand with a puzzled expression: "What are you drinking?"

"You don't believe me? Are you testing me?"

The player wasn't angry; instead, he replied seriously, "Cola, commonly known as the 'fat man's happy water,' is a real sobering agent here. It can restore your sanity. Want to try some?"

He was very polite, took out a paper cup from the terminal, and poured two cups.

A cup was handed to Tan Qi, who subconsciously took it.

A cup was handed to Su Xiaoshuang.

Su Xiaoshuang raised her hand, and a small blue fireball appeared at her fingertips.
