Zhou Cheng looked at the gloomy and dilapidated apartment not far away, his heart full of curiosity.
He knew that this was a resting place for players who had just cleared a dungeon and were waiting for the next dungeon to open.
However, even though he had been in the horror game for five years, he had always gone to the next dungeon immediately after completing a dungeon. He had never rested in such an apartment.
Therefore, he really wanted to see what it looked like inside.
He jogged to the apartment door, but was blocked by a tall iron door with four or five human heads hanging from it.
There were thick stone walls around them, and it was impossible to climb over them with bare hands.
"Uncle, you better not think about climbing over the wall. If you break the rules, those hanging heads will be your end.”
Just as Zhou Cheng was observing the scene inside through the gap of the iron door, a cold voice came from behind him.
He turned his head and saw a girl dressed very coolly.
She had short hair and well-defined facial features. She wore three small earrings on her ears.
She looked like a high school student. She wasn't particularly beautiful, but she was very good-looking.
The overall style of her clothes was also more neutral.
"The staff will come over to open the door on the dot. The players are all waiting in the open space here.”
The girl waved at Zhou Cheng, then turned around and led the way.
Zhou Cheng looked in the direction she had gone.
As expected, there were already a few people waiting there.
He followed her slowly, keeping a safe distance from her.
"You're really cautious, Uncle. Are you afraid that a high school student like me will frame you? Coward!"
The girl turned around and looked at Zhou Cheng, who was a few meters away from her. She pursed her lips and made a face at him.
"I'm not much older than you. Calling me uncle is a little too much.”
Zhou Cheng ignored the girl's antics and tried to correct the way she addressed him.
The girl did not reply.
The two of them quickly walked to the open space.
The surrounding players glanced at them and quickly looked away.
After they sat down, the girl answered the question perfunctorily,
"Got it, uncle."
There was no intention of changing the way she addressed him. She continued,
"Uncle, don't always call me 'you' or 'you'. I have a name, call me Tang Qing.”
"Tang Qing? Sweetening?"
Zhou Cheng repeated the girl's name and immediately thought of something that sounded similar.
"I heard you, uncle! Giving people nicknames behind their backs was not the behavior of a good uncle.”
Tang Qing turned her head and stuck out her pink tongue. Her index finger gently pulled down the lower eyelid of her right eye and made a face at him.
"And you can't differentiate your nasal voice!”
Tang Qing's words made Zhou Cheng laugh. He couldn't help but ask,
"Are your results not very good?”
"Are you insulting me?"
The girl was instantly angry. Her cheeks puffed up slightly, and her cold voice was filled with anger.
Zhou Cheng smiled.
He did not continue the topic.
In his opinion, although this girl called Tang Qing looked very cool on the outside, she was actually a little muddle-headed child.
It was quite cute.
Seeing that Zhou Cheng did not speak, Tang Qing could not take it anymore and prepared to argue with him again.
At this moment, a cold wind blew.
In the middle of the clearing, two balls of black mist appeared out of thin air.
When the fog dispersed, two malicious ghosts, one fat and one thin, both wearing green clothes, appeared in front of everyone.
"Players, gather. Come to us to collect your qualification certificate and key.”
"Line up and come one by one.”
Fat Ghost shouted at the players on the empty ground.
Skinny Ghost silently took out two cloth bags.
One of them contained some square card-like items and several keys of different colors.
The other was empty.
He sat on the ground skillfully and placed two cloth bags in front of him.
Then, he nodded at the fat ghost, indicating that they could start.
When Fat Ghost saw this, he called out to the players who had already lined up to come over and collect them one by one.
"Wang Tiezhu."
The player standing in the first place was a burly man.
He stroked his big beard and said his name.
Skinny Ghost rummaged through the sack and quickly found Wang Tiezhu's qualification certificate.
However, he did not hand the certificate over to Wang Tiezhu immediately. Instead, he stared straight at the man, as if he was expecting something.
Seeing this, Wang Tiezhu was a little confused and could not help but scratch his head.
"Sigh."
Skinny Ghost sighed in disappointment.
He then took out a bronze key from his pouch and handed it to the fat ghost along with the qualification certificate.
"Hmph, so you're a newbie.”
The fat ghost took the item and snorted coldly.
Instead of handing it to Wang Tiezhu, he threw it on the ground.
Seeing Wang Tiezhu squat down and pick it up without a word, the disdain on his face intensified.
"Coward, next."
Then, a young man in a suit walked forward.
He came to the front of the skinny ghost and placed something into the cloth bag.
"Zhao Ming, I hope you two will be able to guide me.”
Skinny Ghost squinted his eyes and saw what he had placed.
He didn't react as obviously as he did earlier. He found Zhao Ming's certificate and handed it to the fat ghost along with a silver key.
"Tsk, slightly better than the one just now, but he's also a pauper.”
The fat ghost clicked his tongue and seemed dissatisfied.
However, this time, he did not throw it on the ground. Instead, he raised it high up.
When Zhao Ming understood and bent down, he then threw the item into Zhao Ming's hands with an arrogant look.
On the other side, Zhou Cheng, who was in the middle of the line, had a strange expression when he saw this scene.
"F * ck, there's a gift in a horror game?”
