Chapter 513 [Domain - First Gate] Leaving 309
In the darkness, 309.
The four people huddled together, trying to form the smallest possible circle.
Everyone fell silent, and the atmosphere reached a freezing point.
Chen Ji had already used his white cane to search the area and confirmed that he couldn't find the door. This proved that the white cane was not the key to leaving, but just a tool to increase the margin of error.
Time is slipping away, bit by bit.
Are we just going to be trapped here and wait to die?
Huang Yue murmured in a low voice. After staying in the darkness for so long, his originally highly tense heart had slowly become numb.
But he knew this was not a good thing.
The ghost wasn't in a hurry to kill them; it was just waiting for them to walk right into its trap.
It will take a long time.
For those who enter the domain, they are now caught in a dilemma:
To survive, it's best to stay still.
Try to minimize the chances of being discovered by a ghost.
But remaining still wouldn't guarantee survival, since no one knows when the paper figures of the boy and girl will reappear.
"There must be a way..." Chen Ji's mind raced: "It's impossible to set up a room that has no solution."
"The ghost was blind in his previous life, just like us."
"So the problem lies with the eyes. How can we make the eyes visible again? By using the Three Wise Monkeys?"
"No, the Three Wise Monkeys only enhance eyesight, using my eyes as a medium. If I become completely blind, they will still be of little use."
"It might even leave me with only the sense of touch, and I'll lose my hearing as well."
Chen Ji quickly dismissed the thought, his heart sinking slightly.
He has absolutely no idea where the way out is. He must be missing some crucial information, information that they cannot deduce from the existing clues!
What will it be?
This kind of ghost is very troublesome. It doesn't reveal any flaws, and you can only judge its patterns by looking at the dead.
It was only because Fei'er and Feng Yao were attacked twice that they were able to deduce some of the ghost's characteristics.
The two managed to ward off the previous two times with strange objects, but will they be so lucky next time...?
Just as the atmosphere was becoming increasingly heavy.
Suddenly, a rumbling sound came from the ground not far away, like a soft little ball rolling on the ground.
The four of them immediately looked in the direction of the sound, even though all they could see was endless darkness.
The rustling sound gradually drew closer.
"A ghost...a ghost has attached itself to something with pulleys and is moving towards us?" A terrifying image immediately flashed through Huang Yue's mind, and he subconsciously took two steps back.
But he quickly realized what was happening.
There was nothing like that in the house!
Furthermore, they hadn't touched anything, so the conditions for a ghost to kill them weren't met.
“Something that actively approaches… If it’s a ghost, then our previous assumptions were wrong.” Chen Ji’s expression shifted slightly. “If not, then perhaps this is the opportunity for us to find a way out?”
But the key question is, where did this thing come from?
He didn't dodge; instead, he and Huang Yue stood in front of Fei'er and Feng Yao. The latter two had already used the strange artifacts, so their margin for error was much lower than theirs.
Gulu.
Chen Ji felt a chill on his leg.
He felt two round, plump things slide down to his feet and climb up on their own, clinging to his body.
This seems to be...
"Two eyeballs!" Chen Ji exclaimed in disbelief.
Where did those eyeballs come from? Whose eyeballs are they? They definitely don't belong to humans, otherwise they wouldn't move on their own!
These are the eyes of a dead person, or rather, a ghost.
and many more.....
A sudden thought flashed through Chen Ji's mind: Could this be the way out? The eyes of the living are useless; only the eyes of the dead can be used to observe?
The moment that thought crossed his mind, those two cold eyes slid onto his face.
It covered his eyelids, forcing Chen Ji to close his eyes.
However, he could see it!
These two eyeballs, which appeared out of nowhere, seemed to have replaced Chen Ji's own eyes, giving him the vision to see through illusions.
At this moment, the darkness dissipated in Chen Ji's "perspective".
It's still the same suite, but now it has light.
"The problem is the eyes," Chen said succinctly. "Only the eyes of the dead can 'see.'"
"..."
"So that's how it is..." Feng Yao's throat moved, her voice a little hoarse.
Very simple.
But it's also very cruel.
They're trapped here. Where can they get dead people's eyes? This means that at least one of the four of them must die for the rest to survive.
"So, where did these eyes come from?" Phil didn't relax; instead, she directly pointed out the problem.
"A ghost couldn't be that kind. Besides, it's blind, so even if it's dead, we can't use its eyes."
Therefore, this can only belong to another ghost.
Chen Ji didn't say much, but gestured for everyone to grab his shoulders and line up to follow him.
Since he was the only one who had regained his sight, while the others were still blind, they had no choice but to move around like this.
He wanted to examine the paper figure first to determine if the eyes came from there.
However, just as he was walking towards the room on the left, an extremely terrifying scene unfolded...
The TV cabinet not far from the four people suddenly changed its appearance.
The wood grain pattern on it is no longer the ordinary wood grain.
The silhouette of a man faintly emerged from the TV cabinet... Soon, like a poster, a face as flat as paper appeared on the TV cabinet.
His face was contorted, his eyes wide open, yet they were as gray and white as mist.
It's that blind ghost.
It was moved to an item very close to the entrant.
He just had to wait for someone to accidentally touch him.
"It only changed its position after we moved it..." Chen Ji's face was very ugly. Room 309 was truly a dead end at every turn.
Without the strange object and the white cane, they would have died a hundred times over.
As the squad continued to move forward, Ghost kept changing positions.
Door frames, walls... at their closest, they were only inches away.
No wonder the walkie-talkie was silent.
"Don't move," Chen Ji warned, glancing at the blind ghost on the wall.
Its entire body floated on the white wall, like a painting.
Chen Ji knew that as soon as they touched the wall, the 2D painting would immediately turn into 3D, with a hand reaching out from the wall to kill them.
However, with the ability to see ghosts, he was able to use this opportunity to observe the appearance of the blind ghost.
This ghost was actually strangled!
There were obvious marks on its neck, just like the female employee who hanged herself in the room before.
Three ghosts sharing a room, a pair of paper figures holding ropes, and a blind man who had been strangled...
Chen Ji's lips twitched involuntarily.
Obvious.
The paper figure killed the blind man.
So, the ghost and the victim killed by the ghost ended up living in the same room...
