Chapter 280

Unexpectedly, the location of the "Secret Council" does not match its name, and it does not seem to be very secret.

The position shown above is actually the center of the anchor hall.

Although he was puzzled, Wen Jianyan arrived at the appointed place at the appointed time.

This is the core area of the anchor hall, and it is also the area most anchors are most familiar with. The high curved roof, smooth lines, and the flow of people of all colors shuttle through it, everything looks so familiar, and in the memory Hardly the slightest difference.

just almost.

Wen Jianyan's gaze fell on the center of the anchor hall.

There, a red old-fashioned elevator stood alone, like an independent telephone hall, standing upright among the passing crowd.

It was obviously so obtrusive, but everyone around passed by without turning their eyes, as if they couldn't see it.

Wen Jianyan slowly narrowed his eyes.

In his memory, this elevator has never existed here.

Perhaps in order to make the anchors in it more adaptable to the environment here, most of the regional settings of Nightmare look very similar to the real world, realistically simulating the sky, ground, rain, day and night... It's like a real world. huge cities that exist.

When people live here day and night, it is almost difficult to realize that they are now in a huge deadly game.

However, if you observe carefully, you can still see from many details that there is actually a huge gap between this place and the real world.

Within each area, anchors can naturally rely on their feet to walk between buildings, but if they want to leave a certain area and go to another place, they don't need to rely on transportation, they only need to go through an elevator , to complete the shuttle between regions.

Moreover, in the Nightmare, no matter what you want, you can spend points to exchange it.

More advanced suites, more top-level services, more luxurious material enjoyment...

Even a huge and exquisite building like the oracle's headquarters can be remodeled at will as long as you can get enough points.

All these bits and pieces are telling everyone:

Here, the concepts of space and matter are different from the real world.

Wen Jianyan took a deep breath, walked towards the elevator that no one could see.

During the whole process, none of the anchors glanced in his direction, as if he didn't exist either.

Cognitive interference?

The elevator door opened slowly in front of him.

Wen Jianyan made up her mind and walked in.

The interior of the elevator is a deep ochre-red color very similar to the exterior, showing a very luxurious and soft texture under the light. There are no buttons or signs inside, and soft ding-dong music reverberates in the air, with a suggestive Soothe the breath.

The elevator doors slowly closed behind Wen Jianyan.

The buzzing sound of metal hinges snapping open echoed in the small space, and the ground under his feet shook slightly. It was unclear whether it was rising or falling, but it was just continuously moving in the boundless space.

finally-

"Ding!"

Only a slight sound was heard, and the elevator stopped moving.

The closed elevator doors slowly slid open to both sides, and at the same time, a familiar mechanical sound sounded:

"Welcome Candidate, No. 008, to the Secret Council."

candidate

These two words quickly slid through Wen Jianyan's mind, his face remained calm, and he stepped out of the elevator.

What appeared in front of him was a deep corridor.

The corridor is wide and the dome is high, bringing an overly heavy oppressive feeling.

The tone here is very dark.

Underfoot is the ocher red carpet of the same color as the elevator, thick and soft, and the wallpaper on the walls on both sides is also the same color, as if it is blood that has been frozen for a long time. Go deep in the corridor.

The air is so quiet that you can almost hear your own breathing and heartbeat.

Wen Jianyan lowered his head and glanced at himself.

The appearance is gone. His heart sank.

If Wen Jianyan made it clear before, the existence of the "Secret Council" should only be open to the top ten anchors in the rankings. If so, he will not only enter a completely unfamiliar area this time, but will also be with a group of hosts. Meet with the most senior and powerful anchors in the entire nightmare.

So, just to be on the safe side, Wen Jianyan chose the appearance of a redhead to enter it this time.

After all, this appearance is too distinctive, and the memory point is also the strongest. It is completely opposite to his real image, and it is beneficial to him.

Unfortunately

This "Secret Council" does not seem to allow secrets to exist. The moment his feet stepped out of the elevator, the appearance on his body disappeared automatically, and he restored his true face.

Wen Jianyan took a deep breath, stepped forward, and walked deep into the corridor.

The ochre-red corridor in front of me was deep and long, as if there was no end to it, until

"So, you're the new 008"

A voice suddenly sounded not far away, echoing in the empty corridor.

Wen Jianyan was startled, subconsciously raised her eyes, and looked in the direction of the voice.

It was a man with an ordinary face. He was only about 1.7 meters tall and of medium build. Whether it was his voice or his facial features, they were all ordinary and featureless. After sweeping past him, he would be forgotten at the second glance. It can't be found even if it is thrown into the crowd.

But Wen Jianyan didn't dare to take it lightly.

Although the corridor was deep and spacious, there was no shelter, and there was almost no place where an adult could hide. However, when Wen Jianyan just walked forward, he didn't realize at all that there were still people not far in front of him. There is a second person!

...this guy is not simple.

The other party's eyes slowly swept across Wen Jianyan from top to bottom.

The young man was standing in the deep ocher-red corridor, his already overly conspicuous appearance was clearly highlighted by the suppressed background at this moment, like a sudden bright color in the darkness.

"It's pretty."

His eyes are cold and sticky, like a snake spitting out a letter, with an uncomfortable sense of peeping:

"It's a pity, I don't think a good-looking anchor can make it this far."

"Maybe, right?"

There was a smile on Wen Jianyan's lips.

He tilted his head, still with that non-threatening expression, his amber eyes were slightly bent, and the tails of his eyes became narrower and narrower. Wen Jianyan didn't seem to mind the other party's rude comments on his appearance .

He said with a smile:

"I'm really pretty after all, aren't I"

Although he is a man, he seems to be very aware of the advantages of his appearance, and how to use this weapon, so he shows a more flat and bright charm.

The other party squinted his eyes, staring at Wen Jianyan in front of him, without saying a word.

Suddenly, he stepped forward and approached step by step. There was no emotion on that ordinary face, which gave people a strange feeling...

Wen Jianyan didn't move, just watched the other party leaning towards him calmly

As the distance drew closer, he smelled a strange smell.

like

wax

The other party stared at Wen Jianyan's face, his sticky eyes slowly licked the face that was too beautiful even among men, and finally grinned:

"really."

Suddenly, a lazy voice came from behind:

"Hey, Mason, what do you want?"

Wen Jianyan turned her head and looked behind her.

With the sound of footsteps, a tall man gradually approached.

He has a very handsome face, he is tall, almost 1.9 meters, giving people a strong sense of oppression, with a lazy and tired expression on his face, his eyes fell on the corridor, standing very close On two people.

The man known as the mason straightened his waist, with a smile on his face: "It's nothing, just saying hello to the newcomers."

"Say hello and stand so close." The tall man showed a bored look on his face, "Are you lying to a ghost?"

"...Wow," a look of surprise flitted across the mason's face that never changed: "I've never seen you care so much about a newcomer."

newcomer.

It's that adjective again.

Wen Jianyan narrowed her eyes indiscriminately.

It's almost as if... even though he has squeezed into the top eight of the overall list and has an amazing resume, in their circle, he is still a novice who has just started.

The mason raised his hand, as if giving up: "Okay okay,"

"I'm advanced to the conference hall."

The mason's eyes circled around Wen Jianyan and the man, with a secret smile on his lips, "You guys have fun."

He turned around and his figure disappeared into the darkness.

As the footsteps disappeared, the tall man who had just rescued him turned his head, looked at Wen Jianyan, and said impatiently: "Be careful with that guy, he's not a good guy."

"...thank you."

Wen Jianyan looked at the unfamiliar face of the other party, and some subtle emotional changes on the face... No matter how you look at it, it feels familiar.

"If it wasn't for you"

Taking the opportunity to express his gratitude, he naturally took a step forward and stretched out his hand to help the other person's arm, but he was quickly avoided by the man, and he stepped back two steps in a row, as if he was very disgusted with physical contact.

Wen Jianyan blinked: "Orange candy"

"!" Orange Tang turned pale with shock: "...how did you recognize me?"

In the top ten on the list, the only person Wen Jianyan knew was Orange Candy. He didn't think there would be others who would be idle and bored to help him out, and even warned him who was more dangerous. What's more, even though the other party had changed like him, The appearance, but the familiarity in the attitude cannot be easily concealed.

In addition, Orange Tang is different from Wen Jianyan, a chameleon who is good at camouflage. Although she has changed her appearance, she will not deliberately adjust the details of the movements of the eyebrows and eyes, and Wen Jianyan is very good at observing these small details , coupled with the other party's overly iconic cleanliness

Basically stable.

"Secret." Wen Jianyan rolled her eyes.

Tangerine Candy: "..."

"Tch, who wants to know."

Wen Jianyan turned his head and glanced at the direction where the mason disappeared, and asked, "So, you can actually use the appearance in the secret council?"

"Full members are fine."

Tangerine Candy pouted, "But we don't use it often, and the difference is not very big anyway."

This is true.

As the level of the anchor increases, the cost of entering the dungeon with the appearance will also increase. Wen Jianyan, if he wants to enter the dungeon with the appearance in the future, the cost may be at least 20 times higher than that of [Changsheng Building], even if he loses again , I'm not willing to spend such a large amount of points, just to change the appearance.

This is probably even more so for the other anchors in the top ten, so for them, it doesn't really matter whether they use the appearance in the anchor hall, because as long as they enter the dungeon, they will return to their original appearance.

Wen Jianyan seemed to realize something:

"So, you came here this time wearing a dress, mainly to deceive me"

According to his understanding, the top ten anchors haven't been replaced for a long time, that is to say, the looks of each other are not secrets among them, so, this time Orange Candy came in with appearances for the first time, I'm afraid there is only one purpose, That is...revenge for his revenge in the last dungeon, let him also taste the feeling of being deceived by appearance.

Tangerine Candy: ""

Although he didn't get a positive answer from the other party, Wen Jianyan didn't pursue the question any further, but just dismissed the topic with empathy: "Anyway, thank you for helping me out.

"The young man blinked and looked very sincere: "Thank you. "

However, such a high EQ behavior did not make Orange Tang happy.

"..." She stared at the young man beside her without saying a word, and finally said grimly: "You've become more annoying than last time, you know?"
