Chapter 249

The orange sugar team and the dark fire team stopped fighting and reached a temporary cooperation.

In this way, the melee on the fourth floor ended in a way that no one expected.

Although the tense and tense atmosphere disappeared, the anchors did not immediately enter their shops like the previous floors, but stayed in the corridors in unison. Every team gathered together and whispered to each other. They seemed to be discussing something.

There was an eerie heaviness in the air.

"so,"

Wen Jianyan keenly sensed that something was wrong, turned to look at Qi Qian, and asked, "What store did we draw this time?"

"I don't know." Qi Qian shook his head, took out the copper key from his pocket, and handed it over.

Not sure?

How could it be unclear?

Wen Jianyan was startled, subconsciously reached out to take the key from Qi Qian's hand, and looked down in confusion.

Like the first three floors, this key looked rusty and old.

However, unlike the previous three floors, the key this time is a separate one, and the previous sign with the shop number has disappeared.

Wen Jianyan froze for a moment, turned his head, and looked towards the nearest shop.

The same as the previous few floors, the closed glass door was pitch black, and the wall next to the shop was inlaid with brass metal sheets, which were smooth and without any writing.

In other words...the shops on the fourth floor are not numbered, so naturally there is no key with the corresponding number engraved on it.

Wen Jianyan lowered his eyes, his mind turned like lightning, and several possibilities quickly appeared in his mind.

Perhaps, this floor needs to be decrypted in a specific way, first find the store corresponding to the key in your hand, or it may be that the copy of [Changsheng Building] has calculated that the number of teams entering this floor is far more than the store, in order to create competition and After a scuffle, the key and the serial number on the store were erased.

Of course, there is another possibility...

Thinking of this, Wen Jianyan turned his head and looked at the other team.

Although the two parties have reached a temporary cooperation agreement, a short distance between the Orange Candy Team and the Dark Fire Team is still intentionally left. Obviously, the first and distrust between the two teams, It is not something that can be crossed with a brief verbal agreement.

"What kind of key did you get?" Wen Jianyan asked.

Acropolis hesitated for a moment, then looked at Tangerine Candy, as if he was asking for his captain's opinion.

Tangerine Candy stood at the end of the line with a sloppy face, showing a look of indifference to everything. She shrugged, raised her chin, and briefly said two words: "Give it to her."

"yes."

Weicheng nodded, stepped forward, and handed Wen Jianyan the copper key his team had drawn.

"Thank you."

The other party bent his eyes, took the key from Weicheng's hand with a kind expression, and thanked him softly as if he was unaware of his vigilance.

When the eyes of the two sides met, Wei Cheng's eyes drifted away for a moment, and a trace of uneasiness appeared on his face, and he quickly moved his eyes away.

Wen Jianyan lowered his head and compared the two keys together.

Based on his rich experience in picking locks over the years, he confirmed almost immediately that the teeth of the two keys were completely coincident.

really.

Inferring from this, the keys of the other teams are probably the same, so the four shops on the fourth floor should all use the same lock, and each key in the anchor's hand can open the locks of the four shops separately. There are four doors, no wonder there are no numbers on them.

After listening to Wen Jianyan's deduction, Qi Qian on the side narrowed his eyes, showing a thoughtful expression.

And An Xin said bluntly:

"Then can't we choose a store at random?"

"Theoretically, it should be like this." Zhang Yu nodded, and replied cautiously, "If you remember this way, the difficulty of the shop you draw will depend on your luck."

If this is the case, then the ability of the prophet should come in handy.

"What do you think?" Su Cheng looked at Wen Jianyan.

Wen Jianyan didn't answer, but just lowered his eyes, staring at the two keys in his palm, as if lost in thought.

Soon, he raised his head and looked around the entire building, as if he suddenly thought of something, then opened the store interface and bought something.

"compass?"

Orange Tang didn't know when she came close, she glanced at Wen Jianyan's palm, and raised her eyebrows unexpectedly.

"Yes."

Wen Jianyan raised his head and looked towards the fourth floor in front of him again.

I don't know if it's an illusion, but the gray space seems to have become darker, as if some unknown dark force escaped from the corners in all directions, and the temperature in the surrounding air began to gradually decrease, giving the People have an inexplicable feeling of uneaseeven the most insensitive anchors know that they must enter the store quickly, otherwise something terrible will happen.

However, what Wen Jianyan saw was not these changes in the atmosphere.

"Don't you think that this layout is very similar to the courtyard house in the painting on the third floor?"

He said.

The square corridors, one shop in the southeast and one in the north, just correspond to the layout of the courtyard, like a very coincidental coincidence.

However, Wen Jianyan's experience in the third painting on the third floor told him that this was definitely not a coincidence.

You know, the fifth floor, which is the most critical last floor, is the courtyard housealthough he didn't enter it himself, he saw it with his own eyes.

If we analyze it from this angle... In fact, every floor of Changsheng Building is a "siheyuan", and the number of shops on other floors seems to be unable to correspond to "four". This all makes sense when linked to the number of "customers" the store has to accommodate.

The number of customers is fixed, and each customer only needs to buy a product once on the first floor, so the number of stores they visit is naturally fixed. As the floor rises, the number of stores will gradually decrease.

As the number of stores approaches the core "4", the number of customers will not change. Therefore, the number of customers that each store on each floor needs to receive will increase.

Therefore, the fifth floor will become the core floor.

Because by the time the fourth floor is reached, the number of shops has been reduced to the minimumthat is, the number of rooms in the courtyard is the same, and it cannot continue to decrease.

"look."

Wen Jianyan said, showing the compass in his hand to Orange Tang.

In the palm of his hand lay a small portable compass, and the pointer steadily pointed in a certain direction.

In other words... In the dungeon of [Changsheng Building], there is a concept of "direction", which is rare.

Tangerine Candy blinked and also showed a surprised expression.

"If the shops in Changsheng Building correspond to the rooms in the courtyard, the difficulty of the shops in the north should be the highest,"

Wen Jianyan thought for a while and continued:

"The shops in the west are relatively safe. The difficulty of the shops in the other two directions cannot be judged, but they should be higher than those in the west and lower than those in the north."

[Integrity First] Live Room:

"Good guy... So that's how the difficulty level in this dungeon came about!"

"I just flipped through the screen recordings. It seems that in the first three floors...every time the anchor is active or passive, he enters the store in the north."

"I always thought that the difficulty was related to the number, but it's not!"

"Damn, I found out that among all the shops in the north, they are basically the only team that survived every time... I always thought it was a coincidence before, but it turned out to be the reason!"

Wen Jianyan pondered for a while, then slowly said:

"So, I remember suggesting that we go to the shop on the west side."

According to previous guesses, every "customer" will buy a part of the body on a floor, from human skin, to vision and hearing, and then to the face... It can be said that as the number of floors increases, the "customer" will buy a part of the body. Become more and more complete, the level of terror will be higher and higher.

Although, under the protection of the [Changsheng Building] mechanism, "customers" will not take the initiative to attack the anchor for the time being.

But the problem is...

The red-clothed female corpse on the second floor was not one of the fixed "customers" in Changsheng Building, but was released.

Wen Jianyan didn't want to face it again, even if it did, it would be in the west, and the less difficult shop would have a better chance of winning, otherwise, the situation on the third floor might appear again

The horror of the shops in the north and the corpse of the woman in red is superimposed, creating a desperate situation.

He was lucky last time and found a way to block the bug. If he can't find it at this level, he might really be wiped out.

What's more, they now have too many teams left.

In order to accomplish his goal, Wen Jianyan must enter the fifth floor first no matter what.

Although the north may get higher income, but to be on the safe side, the west will be a better option.

Wen Jianyan's proposal was approved by all the staff.

Due to the large number of people in their team and the strongest strength, among all the teams, they won the priority to choose and entered the store in the west without any surprise.

The rusty copper key was inserted into the lock, and there was a "click" sound, and a stench of decay came from the dark shop.

A group of people walked into it as usual,

The dim light of oil lamps illuminated the shop in front of us.

The strange thing is that there are no products in the store this time. In the center of the empty room, there are four tables and chairs placed upright, all of which are painted with familiar red paint.

Moreover, unlike before, this time, the counter was not placed near the door, but was placed deep in the store.

Don't have any products...

Several people looked at each other, stepped forward, and lit the oil lamp.

The moment the oil lamp was lit, the clock hanging on the wall behind the counter began to movethis time, the countdown for them was no longer fifteen minutes, but five minutes.

Obviously, Wen Jianyan's previous speculation was correct. Although all of them stayed outside the shop before, doing so could not completely prevent the darkness from falling.

If some anchors think they have found a loophole in the dungeon and try to persuade others to stay outside the corridor together, they will suffer the consequences themselves.

"Okay," Qi Qian said first, "Since we have reached a temporary cooperation now, let's share information and resources."

Tangerine Candy shrugged indifferently: "It's up to you."

Next, the anchors of the dark fire team and the orange sugar team briefly introduced themselves. They said they were self-introductions, but in fact they were just exchanging code names. As for their talents, they are still kept secret from each otherhowever, For Wen Jianyan, who had been in both teams, it was not difficult to understand this information.

"In addition to the plate of lamp oil in our spare oil lamp, we have a plate of unused off-white lamp oil and a plate of red lamp oil," Qi Qian said, "I suggest that the lamp oil in this shop After the lamp oil is used up, we refill the lamp oil pans separately."

"Yes." Tangerine Candy yawned.

Although the two teams were still on guard against each other, and even looked at each other disliked, the two sides quickly reached a consensus on some basic issues, and also exchanged with each other on the number of lamp oil pans on hand.

Three minutes until nightfall.

"I suggest that it's better to seal the door first to prevent the light from leaking out," Zhang Yu suggested cautiously, "Even if we entered the store on the west side this time, the difficulty of this floor will not be low. Where to go, we haven't figured out what the products on this floor are, it's better not to receive customers yet."

"Indeed." Acropolis nodded in agreement.

Soon, they skillfully sealed the store door with blackout material, and then spread out in all directions, looking for clues in the store.

Wen Jianyan was about to walk towards Su Cheng, but before he took a few steps, he was stopped by Weicheng behind him:

"That...Wen Wen, wait a minute."

He was taken aback for a moment, and looked over suspiciously: "?"

Wei Cheng paused, with a hesitant look on his face, and finally said:

"In short... I was on the third floor before, thank you."

If Wen Jianyan hadn't taken the initiative to enter the third picture, their team might not have survived so easily. If the incident in the first picture was added, Wen Jianyan could have saved him twice.

"Actually, our captain"

"Acropolis, what are you still doing here?"

Not far behind, Tangerine Candy's irritated voice sounded, "Come here quickly, let's take action."

Weicheng smiled apologetically at Wen Jianyan, turned around, and walked towards his team.

"What did he ask you for?"

Su Cheng came over, watching the disappearing figure of Acropolis warily.

"I'm just thanking you, and I'm not planning to do anything to me." Wen Jianyan patted his arm and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I chose to cooperate with them, and I definitely won't do it on a whim."

Su Cheng: "..."

He gritted his teeth and said, "Shut up, who promised me not to take risks alone? I really shouldn't believe you, a liar!"

Wen Jianyan: "Haha."

To prevent losing contact, please remember the alternate domain name of this site:

He laughed dryly twice, as if he was a little guilty: "It was an accident, it was an accident, and I came back safely in the end."

Su Cheng's anger didn't subside: "I really thought you were dead just now!"

"sorry."

The girl raised her eyes cautiously, blinking her long eyelashes up and down, and looked through the gaps between the eyelashes. With her slender figure and pale face, she looked charming, and I felt pity for it.

He dragged his tail, and his tone was delicate and soft:

"I was wrong."

[Integrity First] Live Room:

"...Shameless, really shameless!"

"Brothers, whoever vomited, I vomited."

"Brothers, whoever is hard, I am hard"

Su Cheng: "..."

The hairs on his body stood on end, goosebumps sprang up on his body, he took a step back abruptly, avoiding Wen Jianyan's hand that was reaching out to try to hold his arm, "Be normal!"

Is this person addicted to role-playing?

Wen Jianyan smiled and withdrew her hand: "Brother isn't angry with me?"

Su Cheng: "..."

I really want to hit someone.

"Hey, let's talk about it."

Wen Jianyan cleared his throat, looked straight, and said, "Anyway, I have gained a lot from this operation."

"...Ah?" Su Cheng was taken aback by his sudden change of topic, "Receive, harvest?"

"Yes,"

Wen Jianyan nodded, "As I guessed before, the oracle anchor who entered the dungeon this time is indeed the same one who plotted against you before."

Su Cheng was surprised: "Then he-"

Wen Jianyan: "He should still be in this dungeon now, he just found another team to protect him."

Although Mu Sen is a person with insidious methods, he still has the ability to judge as a senior anchor. After seeing Wen Jianyan alive and entering the fourth floor, he obviously realized that his plan had failed. The hostile team continued to stay, the hope of surviving was not high, so they used props to hide their bodies, took advantage of the chaos to find other teams that needed prophets to make deals, and never showed themselves before their teams entered the shop.

Remember - at least, if Wen Jianyan encountered such a situation, he would do so.

Su Cheng frowned.

Knowing that this shady guy is still lurking somewhere outside makes him shudder.

"Don't worry, at least until the end of the fourth floor, he won't have a chance to do anything again." Wen Jianyan paused, then continued, "But that's not what I want to talk about."

Su Cheng: "What is that?"

"The advantage of the oracle." Wen Jianyan narrowed his eyes and said slowly.

What did it get by making a deal with Nightmare? Through this brief contact with Mu Sen, he finally got some clues.

"If my guess is correct, Mu Sen has two talents."

"What?!" Su Cheng gasped, his eyes slightly widened, "How is that possible?"

"I didn't think of it either." Wen Jianyan shrugged and continued, "But, unfortunately, I'm afraid there is no other explanation."

Senior anchors often have many hole cards, high-level epic hidden items, [titles] obtained through different channels,

There is only talent, and everyone has only one.

Therefore, even if you see other anchors doing something that seems beyond imagination in the dungeon, they will often be linked to these hole cards, without considering the possibility of multiple talents.

But Wen Jianyan is different.

To prevent losing contact, please remember the alternate domain name of this site:

He has experienced the dungeon of [Ping An Nursing Home], and has seen Mu Sen's "manipulation" talent with his own eyes, and in this dungeon, he has confirmed that the other party has the talent of "prophecy".

Although the talent can be used more times, higher value, and even more forms as it is upgraded, Wen Jianyan's own talent also has two forms.

However, these forms are often related to the talent itself, and often show a strong distinction between primary and secondary, and Mu Sen is so different to this extent, and they are all equally powerful and strange, Wen Jianyan has only seen this one.

After eliminating all impossible options, what remains is the only possible truth.

That is, Mu Sen does possess two talents.

"Wait a moment."

Su Cheng hadn't recovered from the shock brought by the news, he seemed to realize something suddenly, turned his head to look at Wen Jianyan, narrowed his eyes slowly, "Is your purpose a little too strong?"

What happened on the second floor before quickly flashed through my mind, including Wen Jianyan's strange behavior of asking Ying to go to the corridor instead of staying in the shop when he just went upstairs, it seems to be linked together at this moment...

Su Cheng took a breath:

"Could it be that you took the initiative to enter the orange candy team to contact Musen?"

Wen Jianyan: "..."

...He really hates this intuitive system!

Ever since Su Cheng activated his talent, his intuition seems to have become stronger and stronger, not as easy to deceive as before.

"How is it possible, isn't the danger too great!"

With a sincere face, Wen Jianyan assured her, "What happened on the third floor before was really just an accident!"

A dubious expression appeared on Su Cheng's face.

It's not that he doesn't believe in Wen Jianyan, but that this guy is too skilled at deceiving people, and he always acts as a riddle when it comes to key issues. He doesn't know how many times he has been tricked around.

"Brother, don't you believe me?"

The girl pursed her lips, showing a disturbed and cute expression. It was almost unimaginable that behind this appearance was an adult male with a height of 1.8 meters.

Su Cheng: "..."

What's going on, I want to hit someone even more.

Although the two have been talking in a low voice, the search in the middle has not stopped.

Compared with the previous two floors, the shop on this floor has a huge area. Even if two teams are squeezed in, it doesn't look crowded at all, but the light from an oil lamp is very weak because of this, and the edges of the room are almost covered. completely submerged in darkness.

I have to say that the search results in the first half of the store were not smooth.

Such a large area is almost completely empty, the walls are clean, and there is nothing special about the few pieces of furniture painted with red paint. Although Wen Jianyan knows that they are probably a medium connecting a certain world, but , but this floor does not have a similar existence like the previous [painting], making it impossible for him to judge where these tables and chairs lead to.

It can be said that they can only pin their hopes on the search in the second half of the store.

Thinking of this, Wen Jianyan turned her head and looked behind her.

At this moment, a slightly raised voice came from behind: "Come here, there is a door here!"

Wen Jianyan cheered up: "Come on, let's go and have a look."

With that said, he and Su Cheng walked quickly towards the direction of the voice.

In the deepest part of the store, where the light could barely reach, there was a dark ocher door, which was closed but not locked.

The orange candy team had already gathered in front of that door, and it was obvious that this was the first place they discovered.

Wu Ya, who stood at the front, raised her hand and tried to push the door.

Qi Qian who came afterward shrank his pupils: "Wait!"

They almost suffered a disadvantage before, if there is a corpse in it, it can be activated by the light.

However, he was still a step slow.

"Squeak"

The unlocked door slid unhindered into the depths, revealing the dark interior.

A cold, rotten corpse smell hits the face.
