Infinite Sun in the East China Sea

Chapter 195 The Midnight Bell
"Enter the beam within thirty seconds. Target locked. 'Midnight Ring' begins transmission..."

After hearing the Lord God's reminder, Xu Feng led the Reincarnationist and Tifa of the East China Sea team into the light column.

Unlike the fully armed entry in the previous battle, the six reincarnations who entered the light column this time were traveling light.

Xu Feng, Tifa and Xiangzi were all empty-handed, and all their equipment was put into the storage space.

The little girl, Ayane Suzuki, packed all the talismans, holy water and magic scrolls she bought into a small red schoolbag, which is the most common schoolbag for elementary school students in the island country.

Mei Sakurai, Park Changhao and Renbang carried slightly more things, but they only carried one more cold weapon each.

They also camouflaged their weapons.

Such a group of people would not attract too much attention in modern society.

In order to reduce their presence, the three beauties Tifa, Shoko and Mei also put on camouflage masks provided by Xu Feng. After the disguise, they still looked pretty, but they no longer had the appearance that could be called a disaster like before.

Another period of half-sleep and half-wakefulness.

When I opened my eyes again.

Xu Feng found himself in a small room where a large number of people were lying in all directions.

Two meters away from him, a TV was flickering with snow.

After a quick count of the number of people, he couldn't help but cover his face: "Not counting Tifa... twenty people!"

In the Lord's protective shield, in addition to the original six veterans and Tifa, there are now fourteen more people, nine men and five women.

Most of the newcomers are middle-aged and young people with good physical fitness, only two of them are slightly older.

"Twenty-man difficulty! The Lord God actually gave us a twenty-man difficulty. Should we say it's truly worthy of being called 'The Ring'?"

Xu Feng sighed and immediately looked at his watch: "Survive for 21 days, and everyone in the team will receive a C-level side story..."

After seeing the small words on the watch, he couldn't help laughing.

——It’s confirmed, the Lord God has really increased the difficulty for the East China Sea team this time!
The Lord God did not even give the option of killing Sadako, that is to say, in the Lord God's judgment, it is almost impossible for the current East China Sea team to completely kill Sadako!
Perhaps some reincarnations who value money over life can trigger the 'side story' of completely killing Sadako, but the difficulty... must be very, very high.

This made Xu Feng start to strengthen his own ideas... He couldn't stay in this quagmire of the island country and fight with Sadako. This was Sadako's home court, and it would be too easy to suffer a loss if he fought with her.

Fly to the sun!

At this time, other senior people also woke up one after another. After Xiangzi stood up and counted the number of people, he could no longer hold back.

She first observed the surroundings and said, "Is this the resort in Izu? Is Sadako in the well below this room? Did the Lord God throw us directly on top of her?"

"It's most likely like this... If the Lord God hadn't thrown us here, there would be no guarantee that we would be 100% cursed by Sadako." Xu Feng nodded.

This should also be a reflection of the difficulty of twenty people.

Throw the reincarnation into the monster's lair at the beginning.

Shoko glanced at her watch. "21 days. Does that mean we'll be attacked by Sadako at least three times?"

The curse in "The Ring" seems to have a solution, but in fact it has no solution.

The so-called curse is actually under Sadako's control.

She would not think that the reincarnation would be safe once the curse was lifted on the seventh day. There was a high probability that he would continue to face a new round of pursuit from Sadako.

"That should be it." Xu Feng sighed. "If my guess is correct, Sadako should become increasingly powerful over the next 21 days. If controlled properly, she should become stronger every seven days. If not, I'm afraid her strength will become even more terrifying... As for the specific details, we'll have to wait until we confirm the current time to know."

At this time.

Monk Renbang looked at the television, which was flickering with snowflakes, and said, "Captain, if my guess is correct, the TV will start playing the cursed video next. I remember in the movie 'The Ring: The Haunting of Sadako,' the character Kono Mai interrupted the video and destroyed the tape. That should be a way to prevent the curse from coming, right?"

"Well, when the protective shield is about to end, we will directly destroy the TV." Xu Feng agreed with the monk's guess.

He paused, then instructed, "Let the newcomer take the lead... but I have a feeling that a newcomer without any enhancements might be affected by Sadako and have difficulty succeeding. If the newcomer makes a mistake, Park Changhao, activate the gene lock and finish him off."

Park Chang-ho nodded.

Destroying the TV is certainly not that easy, and there might be danger in the process, but someone has to do it. When he asked Xu Feng to transform himself into a greatsword with strong enough vitality, he had already made up his mind to be the main tank in the Donghai team.

The captain had the new guy pave the way for him again, which was much better than he expected.

Xu Feng looked at the dozen or so newcomers.

He activated the awakening ability of the Swallow-Swallow Fruit, and suddenly, dozens of balls of liquid metal were transferred from the Swallow-Swallow Factory into the awakening field. They transformed into pairs of large bracelets and neck rings that covered the hands and necks of the newcomers.

Out of fear of "certain possibilities" in the world of The Ring, he did not intend to explain any information related to the Lord God Space to the newcomers, but these newcomers still had Lord God watches on their wrists, and once they looked at the watches, they might find something wrong.

So he simply covered the watch completely with a large bracelet.

He had tried it on Mei. When the main god watch was covered, the reincarnationist himself could not see the tasks issued by the watch; this thing did not glow, and ordinary reincarnationists could not see the words on it in a dark place.

In order to prevent the newlyweds from making too many associations, he deliberately installed identical bracelets on their left and right hands.

As for the neck collar, it is a measure to 'intimidate' newcomers and make them obey seriously.

At the same time, he took out several detachable bracelets and neck rings and threw them to several other senior people.

Do the whole show.

A newcomer may also realize that there is something wrong with the watch worn by an experienced person.

Just after he finished doing this, he found that a sturdy young man had opened his eyes. The physical fitness of this newcomer was quite excellent.

After the newcomer opened his eyes, he immediately looked at his wrist. The moment he raised his hand, he keenly felt that there was some extra weight on his body.

The burly newcomer's eyes moved slightly, scanning the scene in the room.

After taking a look at Park Changhao's body shape, his pupils shrank slightly, as if he had judged that this little fat guy with blond hair was particularly difficult to mess with.

He hesitated for a moment and asked, "Who are you? Where is this place? Why are we here?"

While he was making up his mind to ask, the other newcomers gradually woke up. Xu Feng looked at them with a smile, and without hesitation, he told them his own fabricated lie: "This is an underground variety show designed by a wealthy man. You should have noticed that there are collars around your necks, which are actually equipped with miniature cameras. As for me, my name is Xu Fu, and I am also a participant in this game."

"Variety show?" A pretty girl touched her neck and asked with forced composure, "I don't remember signing up for any variety show. Is this illegal detention?"

"That's right...that's why I said it was an underground variety show."

Xu Feng said with a smile.

He held up a suitcase from the corner of the room and said, "I wonder if you have read the novel 'A Million Pounds Bank Note'. In that book, a poor American lived in London for a month without spending a penny on a million-pound note that could not be cashed, and eventually changed his status."

Xu Feng opened the suitcase.

There was a whole box of gold bricks inside.

After seeing the BRICS, the perspectives of quite a few newcomers changed.

"The variety show we're about to participate in is a replica of that incident. The 21 of us will have to survive in Tokyo for a month relying on this 168 billion yen worth of gold. Of course, this gold can't be converted into cash or pledged, so we can only verify its authenticity."

"After a month, the 21 of us who participated in the variety show will be able to share the money earned from the gold according to our contributions."

At this time, a young man with colorful hair stared at the gold intently, muttering, "Who would be so foolish as to carelessly handle gold worth 168 billion? Aren't they afraid that we will run away with the gold?"

"I forgot to tell you that in addition to cameras, our neck rings are also equipped with explosives..." Xu Feng gently threw out a neck ring of the same style.

An explosion sounded in the Lord God's protective shield.

The power of the explosion was not that great, not even as strong as the weakest grenade.

But after thinking about the location where the explosives were installed, the faces of more than a dozen newcomers became much uglier, and several of them even started crying.

Crying and saying that he didn't want to participate in this game.

Apart from these few crying ones, most of the newcomers had faced the reality and their greedy brains calmed down.

Xu Feng added: "This collar doesn't explode that easily. When we try to break the rules, we're usually punished with electric shocks. Only when we upset the adults behind the scenes will they press the detonator of the bomb on our necks."

"Isn't this your first time playing this game?" The first newcomer who woke up looked at Xu Feng.

Xu Feng explained, "Of course... this underground game is brutal, but it's also an opportunity to make a lot of money. After completing a level, we can choose to quit or continue playing. Of course, the rules of each game we play are different. Survival games like this are rare. Most games are combat-related."

"This game actually has some connection to combat. If this box is stolen, all twenty-one of us will die!"

"Well, time's running out. We'll have to leave this house and fend for ourselves soon... Now, let's introduce ourselves. If there are one or two financial experts among us, we might be able to make a fortune this time."

The first person to wake up said, "My name is Higashiyama Heiichiro. I'm a karate coach. My only responsibility is to protect the gold from being stolen."

The sturdy newcomer walked over to Gold.

He looked at Xu Feng from time to time. The weight of gold worth 168 billion yen was not low. This guy who looked like a Chinese could carry this gold so easily. His strength should not be underestimated.

Xu Feng ignored his scrutinizing gaze and looked at the newcomers one by one.

soon.

The remaining thirteen newcomers also introduced themselves one after another.

The fourteen people have different occupations.

Three male high school students, Sakamoto Kazuji, Nomura Itsuki, and Tanaka Takaya - all of them are bad students. They claim that they have good fighting ability and follow Higashiyama Heiichiro, intending to "protect" the gold.

Sanada Yoshiyuki, whose job is to clean haunted houses... This middle-aged man seems to have realized that something is wrong and seems to have abilities that are different from ordinary people.

Xu Feng suspected that this guy had the ability to see ghosts and gossips.

The real world of Infinite Horror is not an ordinary world. There are many capable people in it. There are many people like Mei Sakurai who can see the aura of death, and it is not surprising that some people are born with the ability to see ghosts.

Ken'ya Ikeda is a private detective by profession. He said that he used to be a policeman, but he resigned because he once offended a professional police officer. He suspected that he ended up in this situation because of the guy he provoked.

Masakazu Takizawa, a young man in his twenties, works as an NHK cashier. He seems a little disappointed with his job and doesn't want to talk about it in too much detail.

Jingu Kiyotsugu, the Yin-Yang master of a certain shrine, this old man also seemed to have discovered some problems, and he frowned as soon as he woke up.

Xu Feng did not find any special energy from this newcomer. The so-called Onmyoji was probably just a profession, just like a shrine maiden like Mei Sakurai.

Jin Dawu, according to him, he is a senior pastor of a well-known religion... According to Xu Feng's understanding, the so-called well-known religion is probably a "shoe" religion... Of course, he is not surprised by this, as he has some understanding of religious organizations in the island country and South Korea.

It can only be described as a riot of demons.

This middle-aged pastor is very confident. He believes that his abilities can help everyone make easy profits.

Xu Feng also agreed with this point - charlatans have no conscience and naturally make money quickly by cheating and deceiving others, especially when they have a large amount of gold that can make people greedy.

He has already decided.

The next task of destroying the TV will be given to this charlatan.

Takahashi Xue, a drama actress, is extremely beautiful and has a temperament like a secluded orchid in a valley.

Hino Reiko, a female high school student, is pretty in appearance, but she looks particularly disheveled, as if she had just been bullied.

Yumi Naito, a female medical college student, is the pretty girl who questioned whether the variety show involved illegal imprisonment.

Nagano Natsu, a female teacher with an ordinary appearance.

Yuki Yamada, a house designer, calmed down and started complaining that the design of the house they lived in was a bit unreasonable.

In general, the newcomers this time are quite talented.

If this were just a supernatural movie of average difficulty, these newcomers might be able to provide a lot of help to the veterans.

Unfortunately, the difficulty level of this horror film is extremely high.
