Chapter 93: Mirror Maze
In the “Integrity First” live broadcast room:
[Damn, I understand. This guy is purely playing psychological tactics…]
[What kind of ability is this? It’s not as good as an illusion! Look at the ghost babies at the edge of the corridor; their facial features and heads are crooked, but the ones closest to people look more delicate!]
[Oh my god, that’s true, I was fooled!!!]
[Hahahahahahaha, it is worthy of you, dog liar!!! (50 reward points)]
[I understand the reason, but … the dog liar is really spicy, aaaahhhh! (50 reward points)]
[Crying Dammit! This pretty bastard’ little devil persona really grasped me hard. I’m chirping while standing up! (100 reward points)]
[Aaaaaaaahhhhhh yeah! Hurry up, take my tip! (100 reward points)]
Wen Jianyan lowered his eyes and looked at the Fantasy amusement park coupon in his hand.
Not bad, a total of 120.
Not even one more or less.
Brother Scar was paralyzed on the ground, with bluish-purple ghost babies all over his body.
His face was pale and sweaty, and he was staring at his swollen belly, which was almost transparent. He could almost see the outline of the wriggling baby below. His nerves were already tense to the limit, as if they would be torn apart in the next second.
“I, I’ve already given you the amount you said, please—”
Brother Scar’s voice was still trembling.
“Huh?”
The young man raised his eyes and sighed pretentiously:
“What you said… sounds like I’m robbing you.”
He bent down, looked at the anchor in front of him inquisitively, and asked softly with a smile:
“Am I robbing you?”
“?!”
Brother Scar’s pupils shrank. He looked at his belly, which squirmed more. His pupil contracted, and he screamed in a pitch-changing voice:
“No! No! Absolutely not!”
“Then…”
The little devil moved closer; his clear eyes narrowed slightly, and the smile on his lips looked even more evil:
“Do you really think so?”
“Yes… yes…”
Brother Scar wanted to cry but had no tears.
He racked his brains and stammered: “Yes, it’s a transaction, a voluntary, equal transaction!”
“That’s right.”
Wen Jianyan straightened up slowly. He lowered his eyes, watching the few people who were extremely nervous, and said with a smile:
“Then it is a pleasure to do business with you.”
He put the coupons in his pocket.
In the next second, the cold and dead dark corridor and countless ghost babies dissipated little by little, and soon several people returned to the green and fragrant amusement park.
Brother Scar felt his lower abdomen slowly flatten, as if deflated, and become flatter little by little.
He touched his belly in disbelief, and after realizing that he had returned to normal, the tall, grown man was almost moved to tears.
God!
Gone, really gone!
It’s great…really great!
The barrage in Brother Scar’s live broadcast room had exploded for a while:
[My god, what level of ability does the opposite anchor have?! It’s too invincible!]
[The anchor this time is really difficult… At the level of the opposite party, he must be at least a level A anchor!]
[Upstairs’ level A estimation is really low. This ability is simply at bug level. It can form a domain and even control ghosts. Damn it, if he isn’t an S-level, I’m standing upside down!]
[After all, although this instance is rated A, it’s more difficult than that, and it’s normal for an S-level anchor to be assigned here.]
[Wait? Aren’t there just a few anchors above level S? Is he really one of them?]
[Yes, yes. These looks, if I had seen him on the list, I would never forget it!”]
[Speaking of… the anchor opposite is really amazing, and his means are as hot as his face!]
[This tells us, never to judge an anchor’s level by looking at his face! If it is a poisonous beauty, you will be finished!]
[Indeed! I thought it was just a good-looking anchor at first. Look! Look at that appearance! It has been the hottest type on the beauty list recently! As a result, I was terrified as soon as he made a move…Damn it, he’s really poisonous!!]
[ Please guide me. What’s the name of the live broadcast room next door? I’m going to pay attention to it!]
Not far away, the rest of the teammates still hadn’t recovered their senses, and they were staring at this side in a daze.
Although they had already learned about the general operation of the plan related to themselves from Wen Jianyan, due to time constraints, they really didn’t know what the other party wanted to do.
Although they believed in each other’s strength very much, they still had doubts in their hearts.
After all, there were six senior anchors on the opposite side.
In an instance of this level, the gap in numbers was extremely difficult to make up. In the past, when encountering a situation where the number of people was far greater than their own, they would rationally choose to avoid it.
And like this, under the circumstances of being at an absolute disadvantage, the successful counter-attacking…
Almost never happened!
Looking at Brother Scar, whose tears were streaming down not far away, they couldn’t believe their eyes.
It can’t be?
They actually did it?
Compared to Yun Bilan, Wen Ya’s mood was a bit more complicated.
After all, she had been in the opposite camp to this liar before, and she already knew the other party’s behavior style very well. Although she didn’t know exactly how he did it, she could still have a little guess by referring to her past experience.
Wen Ya looked at the back of the young man not far away, her eyes twinkling complicatedly.
Why did this dog liar, when deceiving other people, look inexplicably…cool?!
It must be an illusion!
After putting the coupons in his pocket, Wen Jianyan took a deep breath and waited quietly.
Ten seconds passed.
Twenty seconds passed.
Thirty seconds passed.
Wen Jianyan: “…….”
Why was the scenery around him still at the same height as before?
He looked down at Brother Scar and asked with a bad attitude:
“Hey, have I grown taller?”
Brother Scar: “???”
He was stunned for two seconds, tongue-tied, and didn’t know how to answer for a moment. It took a long time before he answered cautiously: “Should you have… gro-grown taller?”
Wen Jianyan: “…….”
He turned his head and looked at the teammates behind him.
Yun Bilan and Wen Ya shook their heads silently.
Wen Jianyan: “………….”
Dammit.
In fact, when he saw his body and the unchanged Brother Scar, he almost had some psychological expectations. However, after confirming that his physical age had not changed, he still couldn’t help but feel a little disappointed.
Wen Jianyan lowered his eyes thoughtfully.
Thinking about it now, before entering the food area, no matter where he spent money, his body did not change, including several other people.
In other words, whether the age of the body should be linked to the number of remaining coupons depends on whether to go to the food area for consumption.
Was that why, in the rules of Leisure Park and Thriller Zone Park, it was written to go to the food area for consumption after playing two projects?
What would happen if they didn’t go?
Or, if they changed to another park immediately after playing a project in one area, could they circumvent the rules?
In other words, if the number of coupons in the hands of an anchor was not proportional to the age of the body…
What would happen?
Wen Jianyan now had too little information to give an accurate answer, but now he understood at least two things.
First, if he wanted to restore his original body age, he needed to go to the food area for consumption again.
Second, in this instance, age was the key.
“That… Excuse me…”
Brother Scar hesitated to speak and asked in a low voice: “Ca-can we go?”
Wen Jianyan pulled away from his contemplation.
He raised his eyes and smiled slightly: “Of course.”
However, before they could breathe a sigh of relief, they only heard the other party continue in his dragging tone:
“But…”
Brother Scar subconsciously gasped, and the heart that had just been put down instantly lifted again.
The young man took a step forward, leaned over slightly, and had a faint smile on the corner of his mouth. He slowly straightened the hem of the man in front of him and gently patted off the grass clippings that stuck to him when he rolled on the ground just now.
He was slender, even half a head shorter than the man in front of him, but he gave people an inexplicably oppressive feeling.
Brother Scar tensed up subconsciously.
The other party obviously had such a beautiful face, but he only felt his scalp tingling and layers of goosebumps were rushing out.
The young man raised his eyes, looked from bottom to top with a pair of amber eyes, and said softly with a smile: “I believe you won’t come to trouble us again, right?”
His voice was hoarse and gentle, without the slightest threat.
Brother Scar shook violently.
Under the hem of the clothes touched by the other party just now, there seemed to be something parasitized again in the depths of his stomach. The terrifying, purple ghost baby seemed to be still lying deep in his belly, waiting quietly to develop.
“No no no absolutely no—”
He said it incoherently.
“Don’t be nervous; it doesn’t matter if you look for me.”
Wen Jianyan laughed briefly, casually interrupting the other party’s stammering oath. He blinked at him frivolously, his end tone was slightly raised, as if hooking people:
“I just hope you can bring more coupons next time.”
In the “Integrity First” live broadcast room:
[Shit, too poisonous; the anchor is really poisonous!]
[Hahahahaha, dog liar, are you used to picking more than one sheep!]
[I can’t stop laughing. If I’m the other party, I’ll just turn around and run away!]
Wen Jianyan squinted his eyes, happily watching the group of anchors run away.
He turned around and looked at his teammates behind him:
“Let’s go, continue—”
At that moment, his pupils shrank suddenly.
Under the cover of the jungle, not far away, Wen Jianyan clearly saw a huge house made entirely of mirrors. Its walls were made of countless smooth, sparkling surfaces, shining brightly under the sunlight. It stood far away among the dense woods, very quiet, as if it had always been there.
But Wen Jianyan was sure.
At least just now…
There was absolutely no such house there.
Without even thinking about it, the name associated with the project just popped into his mind.
Mirror maze.
The few lines of rules on the sign at the door flashed before his eyes, and Wen Jianyan’s fine hair couldn’t help but stand on end.
[There is no mirror maze project in this area.]
