Chapter 236 The Situation Is About to Erupt

Chapter 236: Chapter 236 The Situation Is About to Erupt

Actually, he had seen Deng Yu fiddle with that group photo before, and when he got up today, he found that the torn painting by Big Bear had also disappeared. Moreover, when the first hint sounded last night, he had indeed seen a man’s silhouette return to the right corridor, but he didn’t see which room he went to.

So, even though he didn’t know how the fake painting appeared, he intuitively believed that the two missing people and the two vanished paintings were related. That’s why he had encouraged Li Weiran to take the sketch, only to find, to his surprise, that Li Weiran didn’t fall for it!

He hadn’t cleared the game and couldn’t leave the copy; if he couldn’t produce some real evidence, he would only die there!

"It was Xu San!" he exclaimed loudly, "Actually, I had noticed something off about him since yesterday when we were looking at the paintings with Big Bear. He was staring at the one in front, ’The Silent Umbrella.’ I paid close attention today and found that the painting was actually moving!"

"He must have noticed something; he must have been one of the people who cleared the game last night!"

"Didn’t Gao Jun also say he came out last night?"

"That doesn’t prove you’re not a player who cleared the game," the gloomy man said, "The first report and Pan Siming’s death can’t be unlinked from you."

"It wasn’t me!" Fan Shiji swore adamantly, "If I had successfully cleared the game, there would be no need for me to stay behind. If you don’t believe me, go see for yourselves, ’The Silent Umbrella’ really does move!"

Gao Jun seemed somewhat shaken, "Indeed, during the second announcement, Xu San should have been outside."

Xu Huo raised an eyebrow at him; this Gao Jun didn’t know whether he had gone out or not, otherwise he wouldn’t have mentioned him being outside during the game announcement.

"I never went out," Xu Huo denied, "Pan Siming’s murder at the hands of Fan Shiji lies before your eyes, and you dare to believe his words?"

"Why don’t we find out if it’s true by checking?" Fan Shiji immediately responded, "Although I have a prop, that doesn’t prove that other players don’t have a similar one."

"Just an excuse!" Li Weiran’s expression was cold as he said to the others, "I don’t believe him, and no matter what you all think, I am determined to kill this man!"

No sooner had his words fallen when Fan Shiji threw out a steel wire, grabbed the door frame, pulled himself over everyone’s heads, and stood before the painting. He turned back to the players who had caught up and said, "If you don’t believe me, you can..."

Before he could finish his sentence, the gloomy man suddenly kicked him, sending him flying backward!

"Smack!" Fan Shiji hit ’The Silent Umbrella,’ and along with the frame, fell to the ground!

The gloomy man who had struck, Li Weiran behind him, and further back, Gao Jun and Xu Huo, all displayed varying degrees of surprise. But they quickly snapped back to reality as the monster in the art gallery woke up again!

The first to be attacked were Xu Huo and Xie Man, who stood at the back.

"The picture has been damaged, and the monster has appeared again!" Xie Man shouted, "What do we do?"

"Back to the rooms," Xu Huo stated. He had basically figured out the behavior patterns of the monster; if a painting was damaged during the day, it would knock on the door at night to kill someone, if a player was turned into a forgery, it would go berserk in the exhibition hall, and just now, he completed the second task, which was to restore a forgery to its original state, when it suddenly calmed down. Now that Fan Shiji had damaged another painting, it had awakened once more.

No matter whether it indiscriminately killed or targeted Fan Shiji, who had twice damaged the painting, the exhibition hall was no longer a safe place, and it made no sense to stay any longer!

Ni Tian followed him, "That’s it?" She hadn’t cleared the first stage yet!

Xu Huo simply ignored her; he had already tried before, players couldn’t be absorbed into the blank paper to become a new painting. Therefore, he had no clue about the third task "Create a masterpiece" yet and could only focus on staying safe for the moment.

With a casual point at the wall, the Girl in the Painting who was hovering around the exhibit hall flew towards it and quickly scampered up to the dome.

Elsewhere, the monster attacked the other players, and Gao Jun noticed a sculpture that had been cut in half and draped with cloth. Suddenly, he realized, "This monster is made from a statue!"

The gloomy man, having been struck by his cane and with his paper fan torn, bit his lip, let it go, and with a push flung himself to the side. Then he rolled and crawled toward the corridor to escape!

While under the monster’s assault nobody paid attention to Fan Shiji. After Gao Jun and the others fled, Fan Shiji seized the chance to run along the right-hand corridor. However, Li Weiran was closely following him!

Li Weiran, who had been trapped inside a painting before, knew clearly that these paintings could devour people. The moment she was pulled out of the painting, she roughly guessed how the forgeries came to be. She found it strange that Fan Shiji was not pulled into the painting earlier, but that only suggested not every painting devoured people. She couldn’t be sure of the other paintings, but she was certain about that sketch!

Fan Shiji was running for his life when suddenly he felt a pain in his foot. He fell to the ground and felt another leg being pulled up. Turning back, he saw Li Weiran standing behind him, and he screamed, "I’m not Passerby A!"

Li Weiran pressed his leg into the sketch on the ground, one leg was devoured, and his entire body began to succumb...

[Congratulations to the player "Dancing in the Graveyard" for finding a counterfeit, completing the first task of the instance.]

The players running ahead turned back in surprise to see Li Weiran, who had fallen behind alone. Without consulting each other, Gao Jun and the gloomy man both changed direction and ran down the right-hand corridor, while Lu Gang still returned to the left.

The statue monster that had been pursuing the players, once again went into a frenzy smashing around the room after the appearance of the counterfeit.

Li Weiran was the last one to reach the corridor, and as she arrived, she saw Lu Gang returning to the exhibit hall with the body of You Huanhuan.

No announcement was made, and after a few seconds, Lu Gang opened the first room on the right and said to the person inside, "Dead people don’t count."

In the room, the remaining seven players were all present.

"Fan Shiji might have killed Pan Siming, but he’s not the player who passes," Li Weiran was the first to say, "’The Hidden One’ and ’Passerby A’ are still among us."

The situation having reached this point, people on the scene had a basic understanding of how to complete the first challenge, and there were guesses about the identities of the three players who would pass. Although not a hundred percent certain, with only seven people left, they almost had it figured out.

Leading the progress was Xu Huo, having completed two tasks, with the third task unlocked.

Next were "The Hidden One" Gao Jun and "Dancing in the Graveyard" Li Weiran, with one task completed and the second task unlocked.

The gloomy man, Xie Man, Ni Tian, including Lu Gang who had just tried using a dead body, had not yet passed the first task.

Xu Huo sized up the six people. Gao Jun being "The Hidden One" was a certainty; both he and Li Weiran had completed the first task, but it was likely only Li Weiran knew how to get through the second task.

The fact that the gloomy man suddenly lashed out to knock Fan Shiji into the painting proved he had figured out the first task, and Lu Gang understood it too. That’s why, following after Li Weiran, he found the body of You Huanhuan.

As for Xie Man and Ni Tian, the former seemed to have guessed his identity, and the latter was aware of his earlier action of pushing someone, watching him with more wary eyes than the others.

The seven people were scattered in different parts of the room, ready to burst into action at any moment!
