"Within 30 seconds, enter the light column..."
"Target transfer locked, curse begins transmission..."
The voice of the icy mechanical sound resounded in my mind, followed by a familiar yet difficult to suppress drowsiness, every time experiencing the transmission of the main god was like this.
The consciousness struggled to break free in a half-dream state. Wu Xian opened his eyes and performed a sit-up without hesitation.
Following that, he scanned his surroundings with his gaze, and his face quickly took on a look of "as expected".
Judging from the setup, this is a very ordinary room. The floor is covered with tatami mats, and rooms are separated by paper doors, which is a very common Japanese-style house.
Given that this is the world of the Curse of the Malignant Entity and considering the plot of Yuanzhu Infinite, it can be determined that this is the small house depicted in the movie, which serves as the origin of all events.
Wu Xian could even imagine that once the main god lifted the protective barrier, Yako hiding in the shadows would immediately imprint the curse's essence on everyone in the room.
Thinking about this, Wu Xian raised his left hand and looked at the mission prompt on the main god's wristwatch -
[Main Task: Survive for fifteen days or destroy the source of the Curse in the world of the Curse, complete the task to get a B-level side plot, reward points 5000 points, cannot leave the range of the curse house in the world of the curse for 100 kilometers within seven days, and restrictions are lifted after seven days.]
[Five days ago, the Xihai team entered the "Ju-on: The Grudge 1" world. Three days ago, the Indochina team entered the "Ju-on: The Grudge 1" world.]
[Team battle rules... kill a member of the opponent who has not unlocked the gene lock, get a C-level side plot for individual gain, reward points 2000 points; kill an opponent who has unlocked the gene lock, get a B-level side plot for individual gain, reward points 7000 points... If the opposing team's reincarnation team is completely eliminated, everyone will get an additional C-level side plot.]
[In team battle, if one of your members dies, then you will get one negative point in team score; if one of your members beats the opponent, then you will get one positive point in team score... After the team battle ends, the team score will be multiplied by two thousand to exchange for the reward points that everyone on your team has gained. If the reward points are negative when settlement is reached, that member will be erased.]
...
"The reward for the task remains the same, but the content and deadline of the task have changed... What is the difference between destroying the source of the curse and killing Yako's main body?"
Looking at the four characters "Curse Source", Wu Xian's brow gradually furrowed into a frown.
Intuition told him that this task was probably another trap, and he muttered in his heart, "Main god, what a shameful person you are!" Then he turned his attention to the other figures on the ground.
Excluding the seven senior players including him, this horror film also features five newcomers invited by the main god, making a total of twelve people. It's significantly less than the original work's eight-person challenge.
But thinking about it, that makes sense. The main theme of this horror film is team battles; characters like Yako are truly not very difficult to deal with for the current Zhongzhou team.
Even if he, the garbage, is excluded, among the remaining senior players, the average guaranteed B-level enhancement, plus first-class gene lock, almost every one has the strength to single-handedly fight with Yako or even kill her once. Therefore, it's not still the difficulty of limiting twenty people.
As for those five unfamiliar rookies... Well, it's a bit unexpected for Wu Xian.
Firstly, he recognized Zhao Yingkong at first glance.
There's no way, the characteristics are too obvious. Whether it's the androgynous attire, or the hidden evil thing under the chest cloth under mental force scanning, it proves the identity of this popular female protagonist in the infinite world.
In addition to her, there was another female among the rookies, but it was not as imagined, a seductive pajama-clad mature woman, but a yellow-skirted girl about the same age as Zhao Yingkong. She did not resemble Ming Yanwei from the original work with her tragic experiences at all.
Not only that, but the girl also gave Wu Xian a sense that she was not just an ordinary person. At least her mental power was slightly abnormal, which could very well indicate that she possessed some special ability.
"Ming Yanwei didn't appear... Was it because the main god assigned her to another time point, or was it due to a butterfly effect, causing some changes in the reality and altering her fate?"
Wu Xian frowned and pondered. If it was the former, it was fine; if it was the latter... It was actually not bad, at least there was one less pitiful person in the world.
Shaking his head, Wu Xian shifted his gaze to the other three males.
Among them, a young man with an extraordinary height, but with a gentle demeanor... If I haven't guessed wrong, this should be Qi Tengyi, who appeared fewer times than even the Greenboard Slider.
Of course, even though his presence was not high, he was indeed a talent.
Knowledge of archaeology is secondary; the key is that this guy can even understand cultivation runes, and in many fanworks and deviations, he is a promising student who can learn authentic cultivation.
The other two men, one of whom had clearly undergone strict training and had excellent physical fitness, was only slightly worse than Zero at the beginning, but his facial features and demeanor were extremely serious and upright, indicating that he should be a soldier.
The last young guy with colorful hair looked like a small thug at first glance, and his impression was a bit offbeat, but Wu Xian felt a subtle energy fluctuation from within him, similar to the low-level qigong that Zheng Zha helped Luo Li exchange not long ago.
However, the quality was much stronger, at least as close to the level of advanced qigong in the main god's system.
Moreover, near the position of the Dantian, Wu Xian used his mental force to "see" a thing similar to an insect that was emitting an unknown substance, helping the young man to quickly wake up from his drowsiness.
Bug, qigong...
Damn it! Is that Cheng Xiao? How could he appear at this time point?!
Wu Xian stared at the young man and the other four rookies with an odd expression on his face. Suddenly, he felt like he was going to draw five consecutive SSR cards.
A primary four-level gene lock main character girl assassin, a seemingly inexplicable young girl with suspected supernatural abilities, a tomb robber with legitimate cultivation qualifications, a well-trained soldier, and a master of internal martial arts with strength comparable to the second-level gene lock...
What does the main god mean? Why are the quality of the new recruits this time so absurdly high? Is this a sign of something wanting to happen?
Wu Xian muttered in his heart, but felt a little happy in his heart.
The higher the quality and talent of the new recruits, the stronger the power of the Zhongzhou team will become. Especially this time, it's a team battle. If they follow their plan before entering, the benefits they will get from this horror film are definitely incredible.
Even with new recruits of average quality, as long as they can survive and return to the main god's space, they can grow rapidly from this. Let alone the "demons and monsters" in front of them.
At this time, some noises came from around him, and it was that Zheng Zha and Jian Lan and others gradually woke up.
