Horror Chapter Jiang LiuI don’t know what the two saw, but from their horrified expressions, it can be known that what they saw was definitely something beyond their imagination. Wang Ke slowly walked over to Jiang Liu and walked towards Ma Chao who was squatting on the spot: "Originally, I wanted to remind you not to stare at the face of the doll, but who knew you moved too fast? By the time I came to my senses, you were already stuck." Standing next to Ma Chao, Wang Ke looked at a few people: "By the time I realized something was wrong, Ma Chao had become like this. Look like that." After kicking Ma Chao, a white face without any face appeared on his face instead of Ma Chao's original face. Jiang Liu was frightened by this sudden scene and took several steps back. Seeing the strange smile in Wang Ke's eyes, Jiang Liu blushed, calmed down and asked: "This "What's going on?" "That's it. As you can see, Ma Chao is dead, and his face has turned into the face of a doll." Suddenly, Jiang Liu seemed to think of something and asked hurriedly: "Where's the doll?" Wang Ke turned sideways, revealing the doll behind him, and saw the doll that originally had no face. At this time, the face turned into Ma Chao's face, vaguely JiangLiu also saw Ma Chao Malice’s eyes from that face, staring at him. Jiang Liu stiffly shifted his gaze from that face to Wang Ke, swallowed his saliva and asked: "When you kicked me just now, was my face like that?" Wang Ke He nodded and said: "Well, almost. Although your face has not turned into a doll's face, your facial features have begun to appear blurry." Jiang Liu then realized how dangerous he was just now, if Wang Ke's If he moved a few steps slower, he would probably not be as good as Ma Chao. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but shudder. Xu Hai also came back to his senses at this time and asked Wang Ke: "Why don't you save Ma Chao? With the distance between you and Ma Chao just now, you can definitely get rid of him!" Wang KeRetweeted He turned around and looked at the angry eyes of the two people, and made a gesture of pinching his chin: "I admit that I was the closest to Ma Chao at the time, but I passed in front of me, and when I reacted, Ma Chao's face "My face has turned into that of a doll. I thought I couldn't save you at that time, so I had no choice but to turn around and save you." Xu Hai was thinking of something else, but he was stopped by Sun Ting on the side. After Sun Ting said a few words to him, Xu Hai stopped talking and looked at Ma Chao’s body in silent mourning. Wang Ke doesn't care at all what Xu Hai's attitude is towards him. In his mind, this three-person team, except Ma Chao, which will make him pay attention, the other two people don't care too much at all. Really What concerned him was the person Jiang Liu. Although he is young and tends to panic when encountering unexpected events, Wang Ke, who has always focused on Jiang Liu, can see a trace of hidden calmness in Jiang Liu's eyes. He is sure that the panic that Jiang Liu showed before was just acting for everyone to see.
He was a clever fellow.
This was Wang Ke's assessment of Jiang Liu. After realizing he was in a disadvantaged position, he began to slowly hide behind everyone else, quietly observing everything around him.
"What should we do now? There are so many puppets around; it's easy to see their faces."
Lin Dahai rubbed the spot where Wang Ke had kicked him, clearly feeling the force of the blow, whether intentional or not.
"It's fine. The Uncanny Valley Effect makes things seem more terrifying the longer you look at them. I suspect the same goes for the puppets' faces. As long as we don't stare at one puppet's face for too long, we should be able to avoid that feeling," Wang Ke explained.
"But we can't just stay here. I think it's best if we leave quickly," Lin Dahai said, focusing his gaze on Wang Ke instead of the puppet faces.
Wang Ke looked at the endless army of puppets, weighed the pros and cons of moving forward versus retreating, and sighed. "I understand now. Since we haven't found a way back to the previous level, let's assume this building only has five floors. We should head back."
On the way back, Jiang Liu wondered if the route to the fourth floor would also disappear, leaving all six of them trapped on this bizarre fifth floor.
Glancing back at Wang Ke walking behind him, he noticed Wang Ke frowning in confusion, as if he had stumbled upon something he couldn't comprehend.
"What are you thinking about?" Jiang Liu deliberately lagged a few steps behind and asked Wang Ke.
Snapped out of his thoughts, Wang Ke seemed surprised that Jiang Liu would initiate a conversation with him. He looked at Jiang Liu with a mysterious smile and pointed to a passing puppet. "I was thinking about these puppets."
"Puppets?" Jiang Liu looked at Wang Ke skeptically.
"Don't you understand?" Wang Ke gazed at the endless stream of puppets and voiced his doubts: "What are these puppets here for? Who turned into them? Why did Ma Chao become like one of these puppets?"
The three questions left Jiang Liu bewildered. It took him a moment to grasp what Wang Ke was puzzled about. He pinched his nose and offered his guess: "Maybe they are participants who came here before us. With so many puppets around, who knows how many people have perished here?"
After hearing Jiang Liu's reflection, Wang Ke paused for a moment and stopped in his tracks.
"What did you think of?" Jiang Liu asked.
"No, it's nothing. I just suddenly feel that the origins of these dolls are a bit..." Wang Ke's face looked somewhat unnatural. "Strange."
"Strange?"
"Yes." Wang Ke walked forward again, continuing, "If we consider your previous speculation, that these dolls are transformed from the participants, then the number seems very off. Just looking around, there are at least a few thousand dolls here. You have to understand that the number of participants in each supernatural event is limited; it’s impossible for there to be so many participants in one event."
"That's too absolute, isn't it?"
Jiang Liu was somewhat skeptical of Wang Ke's words. He recalled that not long ago, Wang Chao had told him about a supernatural event involving hundreds of people that occurred over a decade ago in H City.
"It's not absolute; it's a rule. You have to know that since more than ten years ago..." Wang Ke's words abruptly stopped as he realized he had misspoken. He paused for a moment. "Just know that this is a rule of supernatural events. Just as we cannot casually violate the taboos within these events, some rules are inviolable when it comes to the supernatural."
Indeed, he also knew about that incident from over a decade ago. It seemed many people were aware of it, but why did everyone remain silent about it? Jiang Liu wondered to himself.
Wait a minute, how do I know so many people know about that incident from over ten years ago? In my memory, I only heard Wang Chao mention it once.
"There's an exit!"
Just as Jiang Liu was puzzled about what was going on, he saw Lin Dahai excitedly pointing towards a passage in the distance.
