One day, after forming a contract with the old god,

After Qin Yu and Raven discussed it, they decided to walk towards the passage with the portrait.

Considering that the portraits would distort the inviter's spiritual value, she specifically told Raven not to look at the portraits before setting off, and then gave him a few crystal cores to restore his spiritual value.

After doing all this, the two of them headed up the stairs.

After passing the first corner, they noticed something was wrong with the winding staircase that came into view.

There are candlesticks on the wall that can be extinguished at any time. The weak and dim light traps Qin Yu's sight in a small space. No matter how high or far the scene is, people can't see it clearly. At most, they can only see a vague outline. .

There are two ropeways on the roof above the stairs, and several pieces of cloth of various shapes seem to have been hung casually on them.

Some look like handkerchiefs, some have long skirts, and there are a few different-looking cloth strips, making it difficult to guess their purpose.

"There's someone upstairs!" Raven exclaimed, pointing to the top of the stairs.

It's far away from the light source, so even if someone is really hiding inside, no one will notice it.

Qin Yu narrowed her eyes and looked in the direction of his finger.

To be honest, it was almost pitch black above the stairs and nothing could be seen.

"Are you sure there is someone?" she asked.

"Feeling." He replied.

"Don't be afraid, stand behind me." As she spoke, Qin Yu raised her bracelet, and a dazzling light source shone high.

The anomalies hidden in the darkness have nowhere to hide.

She finally saw the "person" the raven was talking about.

I saw a piece of cloth just enough to cover my whole body falling from the top of my head to the ground.

The outline presented by the cloth is similar to the human form, but not very similar.

The color of the cloth is generally dark red, with only the arms sticking out slightly, giving off a hazy yellow tone.

For a moment, she couldn't tell whether it was the real color of the cloth or the background color dyed by the dim candlelight.

Obviously there is nothing wrong with the light source of the bracelet, but the scene reflected back to the eyes is still hazy.

This inexplicable sense of chaos made her unable to figure out whether the problem was with the bracelet or her eyes.

After she thought that her reverie would be unconditionally reflected in reality, she stopped struggling.

If you can't see clearly, just don't see clearly. It's better than not seeing anything at all.

Under the illumination of the light, the two sides remained in a stalemate for about half a minute.

Qin Yu didn't step forward rashly, and the guy who reflected the human form didn't move either.

If it were a human being, no normal person would cover his body with a piece of cloth in silence.

Moreover, the piece of cloth looked heavy, without any exposed breathable areas.

Dyspnea is one aspect.

More importantly, losing sensory experience in the trial area is a very dangerous thing.

But if you want to say that it is not a human being, its general outline cannot deceive you.

No matter the body shape or the angle when the arms are hanging down, they look so friendly.

There are too many contradictions...

She always felt that there was something strange somewhere, but she couldn't figure it out for the moment.

The raven next to him watched carefully and even slowed down his breathing involuntarily.

Qin Yu was just about to step forward to check, but was suddenly grabbed by the raven: "Look at its head... the outline there is wrong."

After his reminder, she stopped and looked over again.

This time, all the reasonable things she had just automatically figured out suddenly turned around and revealed their true colors.

The seemingly normal human form became visibly distorted after the disguise was revealed.

Its sharp outline began to shrink rapidly until it became a shape as tall as a man, similar to a tapered barrel.

She couldn't help but take a deep breath: "Headless corpse?"

wipe. Could it be the headless corpse of a man who died at the hands of wild dogs and was later destroyed by a disaster?

Why did it get here again?

She soon gave up this ridiculous idea.

There was no sign of blood spurting from the neck of the headless corpse high up, and its body shape and height were also very different from those of Cao Hang, who died at that time.

It looks like a woman.

Maybe other invitees...

However, dressing up with a cloth covering the body is definitely not something that the inviter can do.

Suddenly, her mind flashed to the white cloth Apiao she met at the initial release site.

With the same handwriting and style, it is difficult not to think of it as a masterpiece.

The appearance of the headless corpse here is no accident.

Thinking of this, she raised her bracelet and looked up the stairs.

really……

There were more than a dozen hanged corpses hanging on the high ceiling, all of them covered with white cloth.

There were also some strange things mixed in with these corpses.

There are several bat-like shadows dormant among these corpses. They are motionless, as if they are patiently waiting for their prey to take the bait.

There are also some clothes similar to skirts or suits, which are randomly interspersed among the hanged corpses.

The layout and distribution of the real and fake ones can easily give people the illusion that there are dead people above their heads.

Although they may be true or false, the greatest ability of this trial area is to materialize the thoughts of the inviter.

As long as the psychological suggestion is successful and it is difficult to distinguish between true and false, the false can become true, and the true will lead to more real strange phenomena.

This psychological tug-of-war, like dominoes, links each other when the time comes.

Once the inviter has a wrong understanding, the stormy waves caused by the first falling domino will effortlessly engulf the inviters, and the fear will increase layer by layer.

In the end, the unbearable inviter will fall into the endless sea of ​​despair amid ups and downs.

"They are the inviters." Raven's voice came from behind, "There are curse masters and props masters. However, most of the props are resistant to damage and have failed."

Qin Yu saw him raising the expired props.

She seemed to have seen how they struggled to fight against the abnormality during their lifetime.

"How do you feel? Has your mental level been distorted?" she asked.

It is rare for a raven to stay awake in an environment full of strange phenomena.

She almost let Catastrophe take advantage of her just now, but thanks to his reminder, she didn't cause the punishment announcement to sound.

Otherwise, you will inevitably waste time on these difficult guys.

"Don't worry, the psychological suggestion of the catastrophic object is of no use to me." Raven strode after him, "I don't believe anyone, I only believe in my own intuition, so its deception will not faze me."

"I picked up an ice and snow curse book that can attack and defend." This was the only useful prop found among the dead. He couldn't help but said in surprise.

After seeing clearly the quality of the props.

He frowned again and said: "It's a pity that the quality is not very good, it is only E-level. And it is not a permanent item, and it can only be damaged once."

As he spoke, he fiddled with the Ice and Snow Spell Book.

Because of the low level of the props, only Bing Jing can master this ability in the catalog page of the curse book.

The level determines the upper limit of the item. As an item dealer, Raven knows the level and the actual effect very clearly.

The ice and snow abilities granted to the user by the E-level Ice and Snow Spell Book are very limited.

He knew without trying that the spell book could only summon some insignificant ice crystals with no lethality.

"Even if it's a D-class..." He couldn't help but complain.
