Chapter 5 - Chapter 5 Curses

Really seeing ghosts?

  Zhou Li's wording made Baek Yen's heart flutter.

  The young woman whose mental state hadn't been quite right also widened her eyes.

  'Zhou Li ... what do you mean? 'Shen Changrong had more or less met Zhou Li, and At this time, he did ask the question first.

  Zhou Li nodded his head, slightly sidestepped, indicating the dozens of people who had been silent behind himself, and smiled bitterly, 'We are just like you guys, obviously an ordinary door, but after opening it, we inexplicably appeared here, and . ..... just like your guess, there are people from all over the country here. People from all walks of life, counting you all, a total of ... forty nine.'

  Shen Changrong's face was ugly, his heart did not want to believe this kind of illogical thing, but ... he did come to this weird space now.

  He had long since tried to call the police on his mobile phone, however, there was not the slightest signal here.

  Strangely enough, the young woman did not cry anymore, she hung her head low and did not know what she was thinking.

  The only one with a normal face was still Bai Yanliang, but his heart was not as calm as he appeared to be.

  Not in fear and anxiety, but ... he found out what was wrong with him!

  Whether it was Zhou Li, or Shen Changrong just now, there was no mention of the key, they opened the door on their own initiative, and their bodies were not suddenly out of control!

  It seems that he himself ... is different.

  Bai Yanliang now wanted to take out the key in his pocket and study it, but it was just a thought.

  'Then ... can we leave here?' Shen Changrong spoke again.

  This time, Zhou Li nodded and looked at the three of them, 'After completing its mission, we can return to the real world intact, but it's not an active departure that we can choose to make, but rather, we are instantly ejected, just like a swimming ring that is pressed into the water, and immediately surfaces after letting go of the hand.'

  Zhou Li's statement was easy to understand, but he hadn't finished his words.

  'However, although it is impossible to choose to leave of our own accord, we can choose whether or not to enter.'

  Saying this, he glanced at the three of them again and smiled, 'But I hope that you'd better not choose to escape, every time its call comes, a strong sense of palpitations will arise in the bottom of your heart, as well as a sense of suffocation, and at that time, you'd better find a door within three minutes, and then, open it.'

  'And if it doesn't do so?' Surprisingly, it was the woman who had been in a heated mood who asked this.

  'That's what I said we can choose whether to enter or not, if you do nothing at this time, it means abandoning this mission, and the punishment is ... something very terrible that lasts for a month.'

  Something very terrible ...

  This description is very disturbing, what kind of terrible thing is it?

  'And after a month?' Bai Yanyang suddenly asked.

  His voice wasn't too loud, but it was clearly heard by the crowd in the silent space at the moment.

  'Heh ...'

  A light laugh with full irony came out from nowhere.

  Then, a delicate woman's voice came out from the crowd, 'If you can hold out for a month, maybe you can permanently get out of this hellish place as well, how about it? Do you want to try next time?'

  Bai Yanliang followed the voice and saw a young woman walk out of the crowd, she swept Bai Yanliang up and down and suddenly covered her mouth with a smile, 'Oh, sorry, I forgot, you have to survive this time before you can have a next time~'

  'Li Yuejun, speak less.'

  Zhou Li looked at her with a calm expression before looking at Bai Yanliang and explaining, 'As a matter of fact, it's not that no one has chosen to resist the call of this haunted place, but so far, the person who lasted the longest only carried it for three days.'

  Bai Yanliang nodded, understanding what Zhou Li meant. Forcibly resisting its will was to seek death, and he still didn't know exactly what the terrible thing Zhou Li was referring to in his words, but for no apparent reason, he associated it with his own brother,... Bai Yanren.

  The key is a relic of the researcher, so has he ... always had some kind of connection with this place?

  While Bai Yanren was still deep in thought, the atmosphere here changed abruptly.

  Even Zhou Li, who had been speaking calmly, had a grave expression on his face as he looked into the depths of the mists.

  'Here it comes.'

  Amidst the astonished gazes of Bai Yanliang and the other three newcomers, something bizarre happened.

  The grey mist twisted and tangled in the air, gradually taking shape and densely lining up a large surface of space.

  When Bai Yanliang took a closer look, it was actually a personal name!

  Li Mu, Feng Sleeve Snow, Du Shangjing, Lin Yan, Yang Xiu, Zheng Jiajia, Yu Hanzhou, Niu Ping, Li Dayou, Zhou Li, Huang Yourong ... Qi Nian, Shen Changrong, Bai Yanliang!

  Seven names in a column, seven columns in total.

  The names of the forty-nine people were all condensed from grey mist, floating ghostly in mid-air.

  With Li Mu at the head and Bai Yanliang at the end.

  Bai Yanliang's heart stirred slightly, could it be that he was at the end because he was the last to enter this space?

  Then ... Li Mu, who was first in line, was the first of the current forty nine to enter this place?

  The speculation was reasonable, but one needed to find a chance to verify it.

  Under the gaze of everyone holding their breath, the names of the forty-nine people who had just coalesced into shape suddenly changed.

  The colour of blood gradually crept onto the grey mist, dipping rapidly, and one name quietly turned blood red - Wei Xiu!

  As his name changed, five more names gradually turned blood red!

  Qin Siqiao, Yuan Pengfei, Jin Wen, Lu Shuang, and Shen Changrong!

  Three men and two women, five people with different faces stepped out of the crowd, and then a man in his thirties with a robust physique glared at Shen Changrong, 'Come here!'

  As the president of Yum United Group, where had Shen Changrong received such a loud and stern shout? However, he understood better that the situation was stronger than the people, his face remained unchanged as he stepped out and stood with the five people.

  As the six people came out, the next round of changes were happening again.

  This time, the first one to turn into a blood red name was ... Yu Hanzhou!

  After his name turned red, Bai Yanliang clearly felt some commotion in the crowd, but it was unclear what the reason for this change was.

  Then, this time it was seven names that turned blood red at the same time.

  Dong An, Hua Xiao Xiao, Lu Guo, Sun Wenjie, Zhou Changfeng, Ma Zirong, and ... Qi Nian!

  Seeing this, Bai Yanliang confirmed that he would definitely appear in the third round, and it seemed that the so-called newcomers would definitely appear in the mission?

  And after two rounds, most of the people present whose names did not turn blood red breathed a sigh of relief, generally speaking, the third round is the last mission, but also relatively speaking, the highest survival rate of the mission, did not draw the better, if the draw, but also can get more life.

  After Qi Nian also shivered and stood with the remaining six, the last round, began.

  Is it my turn?

  Bai Yanliang's gaze went to that name of his own that was located at the end of the last column.

  The colour of blood quietly appeared, spreading upwards in wisps, and in almost just a moment, the grey mist was already infested with blood red.

  However, this time, everyone's gazes became incredulous.

  Because, that name that first turned blood red was ... Bai Yanliang!
