This thing seemed to want to come in. Its dead white eyes searched around Bai Liu's room, and it seemed to find that there was no one in the room. It seemed to leave Bai Liu's door, and the door handle didn't move. It became silent and silent, and the other party seemed to have left.

But Bai Liu still held his breath. He remembered that when this thing moved, it would make a dull sliding sound, and it would be wrong without this sound.

The mermaid wax figure didn't leave at all, most likely it was still quietly guarding in front of his door.

This thing was tricking him and luring him out, Bai Liu thought, he squinted, and found that the cat's eyes that had returned to the color of the carpet suddenly turned white with bulging eyeballs.

That thing is still there.

This thing didn't seem to give up after waiting for a while, and still wanted to come in. The doorknob was twisted into a protruding and broken shape, and it was about to slip from the door precariously.

The wax figure of the mermaid outside the door is about to come in.

The audience in front of the Bailiu TV screen was kind-hearted and couldn't bear to close their eyes.

"It's rare to see a seeded player... Hey, it's a pity."

"The main reason is that the dungeon of Siren Town is too disgusting. This is not the difficulty of a novice dungeon at all. Giving it to novices is killing people."

Bai Liu's brain was spinning rapidly, and his breathing slowed down.

The game clearly told him that these ghost monsters have weaknesses, and players can use their weaknesses to escape from these monsters, so the current way to break the game is to find the weaknesses that restrict the movement of these things.

Bai Liu closed her eyes and recalled the whole process of staying in tonight.

As long as it is a game, it has a solution, and a game without a solution is the most rubbish. Bai Liu has been making horror games for so many years, and he is very sure that there must be something that hints at the weakness of other people's wax figures.

what is it…..

Bai Liu calmly began to sort out all the scenes where he met the mermaid wax figure.

The first time was at the fountain outside the hotel. Jeff exclaimed that he saw the wax figure of the mermaid move. The movement was silent, just turning behind the car. The wax figure of the mermaid didn’t look directly at them, but was watching in the water.

The second time was in the hotel lobby, a huge number of wax figures of various mermaids looked directly at them without moving.

The third time was in the hotel room. Except for the huge mermaid wax figure looking in the mirror, the other mermaid wax figures looked directly at Bai Liu. After Bai Liu fell asleep, they began to move. The mirror mermaid moved the fastest, but Bai Liu woke up. After that the wax figures don't move.

But obviously Bai Liu's staying awake is not a condition that restricts the movement of the mermaid wax figure, because the mermaid wax figure outside the door is ready to break in.

There will be no unbreakable situation in the game. There must be something on him that can restrict the movement of the mermaid wax figure.

It’s not something in the room, not in the hotel, it must be something brought by Bai Liu, because the hotel and the room can’t restrict the movement of the mermaid wax figure, which can be proved by the fact that the wax figure can freely enter and exit from Jeff’s room. a little.

what is it?

Mirror...water...sleep....look straight!

Bai Liu knew what it was.

Bai Liu stood up suddenly, he opened the door and looked directly at the wax figure of the mermaid.

The wax figure outside the door is so close that from Bai Liu's perspective, the face of this lifeless mermaid wax figure seems to be attached to the tip of Bai Liu's nose, its palm is still on Bai Liu's doorknob, its pure white and beadless eyes Look through the peephole to the lower right corner - that's where Bai Liu is hiding.

No wonder this thing must come in, it must have seen the white willow hidden in the lower right corner behind the door.

It stopped moving, its tail had already touched Bai Liu's toes, and at the last moment of entering Bai Liu's room, it stood still in front of Bai Liu's door.

Bai Liu breathed a sigh of relief, sure enough, the weak point of keeping this thing still is direct gaze.

All the people in front of Bailiu's small TV were stunned.

"I/fuck!! How did he think of it!! He didn't hesitate when he opened the door just now!"

"Ordinary novice players can't think of it at all. Even if they think about it, they don't dare to open the door. They only dare to look directly through the cat's eyes. It will be partially restricted, enough to break in."

"Wori, when he just looked at the mermaid wax figure, I got goosebumps!"

"What's his name, he's so awesome, this newcomer..."

The crowd gradually gathered around Bai Liu's small TV.

[168 people watched the player Bai Liu's small TV, and the player Bai Liu achieved the achievement of 100 rookies]

[102 people liked Bailiu's small TV, 143 people collected Bailiu's small TV, 3 people charged Bailiu's small TV, player Bailiu got 3 points]

Bai Liu's expression on the small TV was still calm and calm, as if he didn't feel that he had done anything extraordinary.

It is actually very simple to deduce that [human eyes] will limit the movement of the mermaid wax figure when it sees it.

Because after Bai Liu fell asleep, the wax figures started to move, and after waking up, the wax figures stopped instantly. The only difference before and after he fell asleep was that he opened his eyes, which means that [human sight] can Limits the movement of the mermaid figure.

But there is a trap here—that is, looking at this kind of thing through mirror objects will only weaken the movement speed of some mermaid wax figures, and you must look directly to completely stop the mermaid wax figures from moving.

Because under the direct view of human eyes, there are two kinds of wax figures that can move, the fountain wax figure at the entrance of the hotel and the mirror mermaid wax figure in the room.

The wax figure of the mermaid in the fountain pool outside the hotel looks into the water, so people are [looking directly at] the wax figure of the mermaid through the water. Although the wax figure of the mermaid is restricted and cannot move fast, it can still move slowly or even rotate, so it is Turn slowly at the door.

Among the wax figures of mermaids in the room, the mirror mermaid moves the fastest, and it is also because the mirror mermaid looks into the mirror, and people [see directly] the wax figure through the mirror, the restriction given is limited, so the mirror mermaid runs away. the fastest.

And the mermaid just looked at Bai Liu through the cat's eyes, so it can move. If Bai Liu just looked directly at the mermaid wax figure through the cat's eyes, although there will be certain restrictions, the mermaid wax figure should still be able to move.

Such a short distance, through the cat's eye, is definitely not enough to restrict the mermaid from moving and breaking in. If it is allowed to enter, the player will be pressed under the door, losing the condition of [human eyes looking directly at], the player will soon be cold.

But I have to say that under such circumstances, there are very few new players who can open the door to face the mermaid wax figure.

Most of the players panicked. Even if they deduced the condition of [directly looking at people's eyes], they didn't have the courage to verify it. Only Bai Liu, who wants money and life, has this kind of reasoning even if he is not 100% sure that his inference is correct. , but still calm and unreasonable.

["Siren Town Monster Book" mermaid wax figure panel refresh]

[Monster name: Mermaid wax figure (chrysalis state), amulet wax figure (cocoon state)]

[Weakness: Looking directly at the human eye (1/3)]

[Attack method: hatching]

The eyes of the mermaid wax figure are drooping, the head is tilted slightly to the right and down, the corners of the mouth are slightly raised with a hint of a smile, the fish tail is graceful, the body is white and flawless, and the posture reveals an indescribable secret beauty and divinity.

Once the wax figure freezes, the spine-chilling aggression disappears, and it becomes a wax figure of great aesthetic value, standing silently in front of the stranger's house at midnight on the seashore .

[Player Bailiu earns 3 points for watching players charge, and unlocks the game store]

[The points are too low to buy any items, please keep up the good work! 】

The player charged three points, Bai Liu understood a little bit, someone who watched it should have tipped him, and this unlocked product store, all the products are black and white, and the display status is [unavailable for purchase].

He glanced briefly, and found that this store had everything from daily necessities to weapons, and there were a lot of messy things, such as [heart intact], [potion of love at first sight], such incredible-sounding commodities also It is on sale, but correspondingly, the price of this product is also very high.

Bai Liu understood the sentence when he entered the game - [points can buy everything you want].

Bai Liu closed the merchandise store, and looked at the wax figure of the mermaid who remained motionless in front of him.

Now this thing is indeed not moving, but it is impossible for Bai Liu to stay up all night and confront this thing, and after this incident, Bai Liu has a new understanding of the destructive power of this thing.

He looked at the stainless steel handle that was about to fall off his door.

Judging from the performance of the wax figures in his room before, although this thing has huge destructive power, it seems that it can only be located by eyes, or in other words, it is only sensitive to things of the visual system. Once it is covered by a white cloth, there is no way to find Bai Liu. It is difficult to find him even in the same room.

In other words, the mermaid wax figure does not seem to have senses such as hearing and smell.

Otherwise, Bai Liu and so many mermaid wax statues are in the same room, even by listening to Bai Liu's breathing, it is easy to locate Bai Liu, and then unscrew Bai Liu's head like a doorknob. With this ability to unscrew the doorknob with his bare hands, he wouldn't be locked in the toilet closet and unable to get out.

….It’s really troublesome, there are still so many, it’s really a burden to keep them.

Bai Liu narrowed his eyes slightly, and a little evil thought in his heart - now there is a wax figure in front of him that does not move and let him fish, can he do some experiments on it, and experiment with what its weaknesses are, such as using fire? Baked it with a stick to kill it and break it up or something....

[Hint: If the player directly attacks the monster, if the monster does not die, the monster's hatred value will remain on the player for a long time, and it will always attack the player, reducing the player's survival rate]

Bai Liu touched his chin thoughtfully, he smiled, a small dimple that was harmless to humans and animals appeared on the right side of his face.

"Attacking it directly will cause it to hate me and take revenge on me, right..." Bai Liu said to himself, "Then if something happened to it, I can't be blamed."

Bai Liu repeated the old trick, wrapping the wax figure of the mermaid with a bed sheet and tying the opening underneath with a rope, and then he put the wax figure of the mermaid at the entrance of the hotel stairs with malicious intentions.

When the mermaid wax figure is invisible, it will walk around without a head. Bai Liu put the mermaid wax figure in this place just to let the wax figure fall down the stairs voluntarily.

Under the premise of having hatred, Bai Liu would not take the initiative to break these wax figures. It would be fine if he could break them directly, but if he couldn't break them, it would obviously cause trouble for himself.

But such a large number of wax figures of mermaids is not a small hidden danger. Bai Liu only has one pair of eyes. If he is in the model of a wooden figure, if he is surrounded by wax figures in 360 degrees without dead ends, the horizontal angle of view of human eyes is only 188 degrees at most, and Bai Liu can't turn his head back. Long eyes see all the fish wax figures, then he must die.

Bai Liu likes to do things that are more cost-effective. Although the game says that it is enough to use the weakness to escape from the monster, but he wants to know whether it is possible to directly destroy these wax figures in some way.

Or, do these wax figures have other Achilles' heels.

He would not take the initiative to smash or hit the mermaid wax figure, the risk was too great for him to take the risk—no one knew what would crawl out of the chrysalis or cocoon after it was broken.

But if the mermaid wax figure fell from the stairs because of his poor eyesight, it has nothing to do with him.

Bai Liu just wanted to do a small experiment to verify whether this thing could be smashed, so he retreated into the room.

Sure enough, the mermaid wax figure moved soon after, Bai Liu was thoughtful, but he was still looking at the wax figure now, but the wax figure was covered by a white cloth, not knowing that Bai Liu was looking at him, so he moved by himself stand up.

This proves that [looking directly at the human eye] is only an objective condition, and the mermaid wax figure can only stop moving if it feels that it is being looked at directly.

There were so many wax figures in Bai Liu's room, and he couldn't keep looking at them all. Before Bai Liu woke up and had no time to look around, they stopped moving on their own initiative.

So, as long as the mermaid figure [feels] being looked at directly, it will stop moving.

At this level of self-awareness, these things are indeed living things, and they still have a certain degree of intelligence, although it seems that the level of intelligence is not high.

The wax figure of the mermaid at the top of the stairs struggled a few times, and as soon as it swiped from the edge of the stairs, it fell down covered with a white cloth, making a loud, dusty noise.

Standing on the stairs, Bai Liu looked down condescendingly, patted the ashes on his hands, and clicked his tongue with some regret. He looked at the wax figure of a mermaid who was unharmed but slightly curled up, and there was not even a crack on the marble.

...It really won't break...Physical attacks are useless...

Bai Liu didn't know that his villain-like appearance was on the small TV, which caused a lot of stunned players.

"Is this person really a newcomer? The hooded sheet threw the mermaid wax figure down the stairs... Was this newcomer a kidnapper before he came in? Or a terrorist?"

"I was still nervous and scared for him just now, but now I start to sympathize with the wax figure of the mermaid who knocked on the door. It's so miserable..."

"...Does this person really consider himself a player?!"

"Other players want to survive the monster, but he is fine, he just doesn't want the monster to live..."

It was a milky white mermaid wax figure, made of cold wax, with a strange translucent texture, and some half-melted droplets on the face.

Although the wax figure has carved eyes, it does not have black eyeballs. Its entire eyes are pure white, like some dead soulless creature standing at the entrance of the hotel.

"Didn't you notice?" Jeff's voice was getting lower and lower, and a little trembling, "No matter where our car goes, this wax figure is looking directly at our car, her eyes must be moving... ..."

"This...why do I think..." Lucy was obviously relieved, and finally smiled comfortably, "Is it the same as the portrait of "Mona Lisa's Smile"? No matter what angle you look at They all thought that the people in the portrait were looking at themselves.”

"No, this kind of situation where people in the portrait are looking at themselves from any angle can only be produced on a two-dimensional plane, and three-dimensional cannot be produced, that is, it is impossible for wax figures to have such a situation." Bai Liu retorted calmly Lucy, "Jeff is right. The wax figure's eyes are indeed watching us."

It's the same as those townspeople, as soon as they came in, they started to stare at them, as if they were watching prey entering their hunting grounds.

This thing must be some kind of monster.

As soon as he had this thought, the coin on Bai Liu's chest vibrated abruptly, and a brand new panel popped up. The game panel turned into a thick old medieval book, which was slowly opened in front of Bai Liu.

[Congratulations to the player for discovering the first game monster and unlocking the monster book——"Siren Town" special (1/4)]

A photo appeared on the page of the book. The pale face of the mermaid wax figure was soaked in the deep sea water. Only half of her face was exposed. Her eyes without carved eyes were silently watching Bai Liu, as if she was about to crawl out of the photo.

[Monster name: Mermaid wax figure (chrysalis state)]

[Attack value:? ? ? (Unknown not unlocked, unlocked after battle)]

[Attack method:? ? (not explored)]

【weakness:? ? (not explored)]

Those places with question marks are like wet ink stains and stains, the specific handwriting cannot be seen clearly, and there are explanations in fluorescent fonts floating behind.

Below the weakness is a line of explanatory text:

[Note: By exploring and completing the information of the monster book page, you can get corresponding reward points and special rewards. If you collect all the monster book pages in a copy of the game, you can take away the most precious thing of a certain monster in the copy of the game]

The monster book in "Siren Town" has four pages, and Bai Liu can't turn the pages at the back. It shows that it has not been unlocked, and it should be a monster in another copy of the game.

It's a bit like fighting monsters and getting rewards. The higher the danger level of the monsters, the better [things] you can get in the end.

But looking at the exploration conditions, and even the battle, this is to encourage players to fight monsters to the death...

Bai Liu, a scumbag whose combat power was only as much as a female high school student's schoolbag, touched his chin deeply.

Lucy hugged Bai Liu's hand in a panic: "...is she really moving?!"

"How is it possible?!" Andre seemed to be infected by Bai Liu's eloquent words. A look of fear appeared on his face for a moment, but he was quickly suppressed. He mocked Bai Liu, "Bai Liu, you Coward! If you are greedy for life and afraid of death, and make up these reasons to escape, just run! After you go back, you will automatically give up on Lucy, and then kneel down and lick/piss on my leather shoes!"

This should be the content of the bet between Bai Liu and Andre.

The driver moved a bit strangely, but in the end he said with a normal smile: "It's getting late, did you read it wrong? How can there be any moving wax figures? If there were any, our town would have protected them for making them." Sightseeing spots! That can make a lot of money! Our city produces wax, and the mermaid wax figure is just a feature of our town, there are everywhere, nothing special."

"We're here! Get out of the car! Have a good night's rest tonight, and get up and have fun tomorrow morning!" The driver opened the door and sent them off.

Bai Liu glanced back at the wax figure of the mermaid in the fountain. Looking from a distance, the wax figure was still facing them, with its head lowered meekly, staring at the water surface, as if it was not looking at them.

But Bai Liu clearly remembered that when their car just drove in, the front of the mermaid wax figure was not facing the hotel entrance, but the entrance.

There are also two mermaid wax figures on the left and right at the entrance of the hotel, holding a scepter in their hands, with a strange and twisted smile on the corner of their mouths, as if they are pretending to be waiters to welcome them, but their expressions seem to be forced to stand in front of them. here.

After they walked into the hotel, they found that there were large and small wax figures of mermaids everywhere. There was even a full-length mermaid wax figure behind the cash register, holding money in its hand, as if it was cashiering.

As the driver said, the mermaid wax figure seems to be a feature of Siren Town, and it can be seen everywhere, but this is too much, from the mermaid wax figure decoration of the floor lamp to the mermaid carving pen holder at the front desk, it is not only seen everywhere , but are inseparable.

These mermaid wax figures have a common feature - Bai Liu found that no matter where he went in the house, these mermaid wax figures placed in different positions would give him the feeling of looking directly at them.

Moreover, these mermaid wax figures have no eyeballs. Logically speaking, it is difficult for a wax figure without pupils to give people the feeling that it is staring at you, but Bai Liu has this feeling.

Such a large number of densely placed mermaid marble wax figures staring at you is really uncomfortable. Even Andre, who has been yelling and ridiculing Bai Liu as a coward, got goose bumps all over his body after entering, and could not help rubbing his arms. Jeff even shivered and hid behind Andre, as if he was not afraid of Andre hitting him.

Lucy Xiaoniaoyi... Da Niaoyi held Bai Liu's arm in a humane way, with a face as delicate and beautiful as a rose with a pale color, as if she was also frightened by the weird hotel decoration.
