Chapter 172 The Mirror Game
Chapter 172 The Mirror Game
Ten minutes later, Jerry was still smiling as he shuffled the cards and had them draw lots.
This time, Jiang Qi did not choose to let Chi Miaomiao draw lots.
After all, this was the third game they had participated in.
Jerry certainly wouldn't let them pass easily and get their tickets stamped.
Even if Chi Miaomiao is blessed by Lady Luck, Jerry still has a way to make her draw the most difficult card in the game.
Moreover, they cannot rely on Chi Miaomiao's luck forever.
Lu Xue volunteered and stepped forward without hesitation to examine the playing cards on the table.
Jiang Qi stood far away from the table where the lottery was being drawn, so as not to let his luck affect Lu Xue.
You can choose anyone to draw lots, just not him.
Lu Zhi crossed his arms and glanced calmly at that spot.
Lu Xue herself was very nervous; her heart was pounding in her chest.
Jerry crossed his arms, rested his chin on his hand, and leisurely enjoyed the expression on the face of the person in front of him.
She licked her lips, took a deep breath, and took the last unremarkable playing card.
"Ah, congratulations! You drew the Mirror Game in the third game."
Jerry didn't say whether the game was easy or difficult, and his face remained all smiles.
After Lu Xue finished drawing her lot, Jiang Qi and Lu Zhi slowly moved over.
They looked at each other, none of the seven having ever heard of or played the mirror game.
Compared to the well-known Four Corners game, they had never even heard of this Mirror game.
However, after each draw, Jerry would tell them the basic information about the game.
He was very patient and explained the rules of the mirror game clearly, word by word.
The participants need 3 girls and 2 boys in a room with many mirrors, ensuring that they are positioned at a distance where they can see each other.
The boys should separate, form a circle, and remember the location of the mirror.
Stand for a while, and then start circling around as midnight approaches.
Starting with the girls, blow air onto the nape of the neck of the person in front of you, making sure not to make a loud noise, and so on, while continuously walking in circles.
When someone feels two breaths blown on their neck, it means their time has come.
At the same time, they turned their backs to the mirror, and the other four looked into the mirror together.
Important: Do not peek into the mirror during the process.
No matter what you see, don't run away. Everyone should say "Go" together and turn around.
Ideally, someone should be in charge to issue such orders. If the leader is facing away from the mirror, everyone's fate is in their own hands.
Lin Wanchu, Lu Xue, and Chi Miaomiao make up the three girls.
The two boys were Jiang Qi and Lu Zhi.
Only Cheng Cuo and Yu Hansheng remained in the Monster Guild.
They could only stay in the rest area and wait for their companions.
During the game, visitors waiting outside are not allowed to leave without permission.
This was Jerry's reminder, and also a warning to them.
They could only wait obediently.
Although this was Cheng Cuo and Yu Hansheng's time alone, they only discussed the clues they had at hand.
Before the game started, Jerry first took the five people to familiarize themselves with the layout of the room.
Jerry took the lead and pushed open a heavy door in the haunted house.
The five people could only see that every wall in the room, and even the ceiling, was inlaid with huge mirrors that stretched from the floor to the top.
The moment they all stepped into the room, they felt as if they were in a world of radiant light and overlapping images.
Lin Wanchu gently touched the mirror, feeling its cold and smooth surface.
Lu Xue made various expressions and movements in front of the mirror, observing the ever-changing reflections of herself and her companions.
Great, the reflection in the mirror is still themselves, and there's nothing wrong with it.
Jiang Qi squinted, feeling a little uncomfortable.
In these countless reflections, their every movement is magnified and repeated infinitely, making people feel dizzy and lost.
As the people moved around the room, their reflections changed accordingly.
Mirrors are everywhere, so you can see yourself no matter which direction you look from.
There was an empty space in the very center of the room.
Lin Wanchu, Lu Xue, Chi Miaomiao, Jiang Qi, and Lu Zhi—five people in total, three women and two men—stood in a circle according to the rules of the game.
Jiang Qi and Lu Zhi stood at opposite ends of the circle, ensuring that the distance between them was just right so that they would not interfere with each other but could still see each other clearly.
Lin Wanchu, Lu Xue, and Chi Miaomiao then found their positions and evenly distributed themselves between Jiang Qi and Lu Zhi, forming a perfect circle.
Finally, Jiang Qi and Lu Zhi each made a conspicuous mark on the mirror they were facing.
Seeing that the five people had already been assigned their positions, Jerry clapped his hands, his voice low but containing a hint of excitement.
"Then, the game officially begins."
Here, five people are playing games in the haunted house.
Jerry had already appeared in front of the haunted house, holding a rating sheet in his hand.
It strolled leisurely to Cheng Cuo and Yu Hansheng and waved the score sheet in its hand.
"Dear guests, hello. May I bother you for a few minutes?"
"Now that you've finished visiting the haunted house, could you please give it a five-star review?"
Yu Hansheng took the haunted house rating sheet and read it quickly.
Finding no hidden pitfalls, he generously marked each question with five stars using a red marker.
Cheng Cuo asked for a sheet, but because he couldn't see, he colored outside the stars several times.
A warm palm covered him, and that's how Cheng Cuo got a five-star review.
Jerry bowed politely, a standard smile on his face, his voice full of gratitude.
"Thank you for your support of the haunted house. We wish you happiness and peace in the future."
"You're welcome."
Yu Hansheng's ears twitched almost imperceptibly; Jerry's voice sounded a bit strange.
It sounds like it's been processed with a voice changer; it just doesn't sound natural.
Although Jerry tried his best to make his voice sound less awkward, Yu Hansheng, as a vampire, had exceptional hearing and eyesight.
Its speech lacks the warmth and natural flow of genuine human emotion; instead, it carries a mechanical and artificial quality, making it feel very awkward to listen to.
However, in the Nightmare Game, all the unscientific things become scientific.
Moreover, Jerry is just an NPC in the instance, so his voice is irrelevant.
In the time it took them to play two games, not a single player came to visit the lonely haunted house in the corner.
