"Why are there so many death characters carved inside the altar? This doesn't look like a place where a deity lives! "The detective crawled at the front, and when he saw the writing inside the altar, his face blanched from fear.
"Didn't the video explain it earlier? The altar placed on the table is for the deity, and this kind of altar placed in the corner is for something else. "A woman gathered her courage and squatted down before the altar. She carefully peered into it.
It was unclear what material the altar was made of. It looked like wood, but it felt sticky to the touch like one was touching a pool of blood that was about to congeal.
Ever since the small door at the bottom of the altar was opened, a faded stench had drifted out from the altar.
"I'm sorry to say this, but I don't think any ghosts would want to stay inside this box." The police officer silently stood beside Chen Ge. "Other than that, I have to tell you one more thing. When I came to challenge this place last time, there were no bloody words inside the altar."
After he said that, he turned to look at the girl who was squatting before the altar.
The girl slowly stood up with confusion in her eyes. She surreptitiously shook her head at the police officer and the black-haired woman.
The few 'visitors' appeared to be responsible for different jobs inside the Haunted House, and this girl appeared to be responsible for fixing the props and mechanisms.
Seeing her shake her head, the police officer's expression darkened. With some hesitation, he turned to Chen Ge and said, "How about we stop moving forward? Don't rush to clear the scenario, and we'll accompany you to explore the first few scenarios."
The police officer was basically telling Chen Ge — 'We're not scaring you, and you should stop moving forward and make us look bad. We're all going to be safe.'
"We have to continue moving forward. Even if we don't go find them, they'll come find us." Chen Ge had already noticed the few visitors communicating with each other through their eyes. He also saw the girl shake her head at the police officer, and it was after the girl gave him that the police officer suggested to stop the exploration.
The 'visitors' were afraid, and the reason for their fear was related to this altar.
Chen Ge grabbed the edge of the altar with both of his hands. He wanted to look at it from a different angle, but he realized with a shock that the altar was fixed to the ground and was connected to the whole house.
The Reincarnation Haunted House was built by the futuristic theme park, so why should they be afraid? Although these employees were not very courageous, to be chosen to accompany him, they must be the kind of people who were smart and capable in business. Something that could make them retreat in fear must be a big problem.
Chen Ge pretended to ask casually, "Did the designer of the Reincarnation Haunted House not expect the scenario to become like this?"
"Something like that." The police officer frowned. After he blurted it out, he realized that it was not the right thing to say, so he quickly added, "When I came to visit last time, I heard a few of the designers arguing. It seems to be because under the central computer's control, some of the hellish scenarios have changed beyond the design."
"No matter how powerful an AI system is, it can't affect reality. It has to work with humans and machines to be effective." Chen Ge stared at the inside of the altar, and the tip of his nose twitched. He used the talent he had just obtained — Spirit Sniff.
"That's true, but not all questions in the world have answers." The police didn't know how to explain it to Chen Ge.
"I think I get it now." Chen Ge took a deep breath. "All the scenarios are controlled by the central computer, and there will be mistakes and changes when they are combined, but these changes are within the acceptable range, so the designers didn't bother with them. If anything, they were proud of their work. But they neglected a very important factor. These idiots placed some old objects that they found in Eastern Jiujiang into the Haunted House! The central computer controls the projection and mechanisms to change the scenario and the development model, and the things that are attached to the old objects are silently changing the scenario itself. "
"What … what are you talking about?" The police officer was confused.
"My parents own a Haunted House, and I grew up inside a Haunted House, so of course I know more than you do." Chen Ge signaled for the detective to come over with his phone. "The Haunted House itself is a place with heavy negative energy. If one isn't careful, something bad will happen. This Haunted House purposely placed a lot of unlucky objects inside, so it's normal to attract those things."
"Do you think we'll believe that?" The woman with the long black hair still disagreed with Chen Ge. She would not allow others to talk bad about the futuristic theme park, just like how Chen Ge did not want others to talk bad about New Century Park.
He could understand that, but that did not mean that he would give in. "Lean closer to look at the writing inside the altar."
Under the light, the few resisted the discomfort and looked at the writing.
"These words were carved out using fingernails. Some of the red marks are dye, and some are blood. Look at the innermost words. Don't you see some impurities between the lines? "
"Yes, I can see them." With the light from the phone, the few finally got a good look. "What is that?"
"If I said it's rotten meat, would you believe me?" Chen Ge's expression was scary. "There is a stench coming from inside the altar. It's the smell of rotten meat. It's hard to imagine that an altar would give off such a stench. If this is not the work of the futuristic theme park, then it proves that something is wrong with this Haunted House. "
Narrowing his eyes, Chen Ge scanned the room. The whole Japanese building was giving off a bad vibe, and every item was curled up by something.
It was hard to see, but it was definitely there.
"Then … why don't we retreat to the previous scenario?" The police officer was already planning to retreat. He had visited the medium difficulty scenario and knew a lot about this Haunted House, but it was because he knew more that he was even more afraid.
"You all look like you like this theme park a lot. Does anyone know when this theme park started to build a Haunted House?" Chen Ge could sense the thick resentment and hatred from the writing on the altar. It was the presence of a curse.
"About one month ago."
"That's when my Haunted House became popular online." Chen Ge did not mince his words. "The futuristic theme park saw the business opportunity, but they failed to see the danger behind it. Eastern Jiujiang is different from Western Jiujiang."
"What's different about it?" The woman with the long hair frowned like she was trying to get information out of Chen Ge. She knew that the futuristic theme park was an outsider, and Chen Ge was a native of Jiujiang.
"You'll know in a bit." Chen Ge then took out a rag doll with half of its face burnt from his backpack.
"What are you doing? Isn't this the girl's toy? "The 'visitors' could not guess what Chen Ge was thinking.
"I wish to do an experiment." After saying that, Chen Ge shoved the rag doll into the altar and closed the door. "The altar is the most dangerous place in the whole scenario, so I'll stand guard here. Split into groups of two to search the other rooms. If you find anything scary, scream loudly, and I'll come to your aid. "
"Are you sure you want to stay in the corridor alone and guard this altar?" There was a trace of uncertainty in the police officer's voice.
"Leave him be." The man with the glasses dragged the police officer away, and the few visitors started to search in a hurry.
After they left, Chen Ge silently opened the altar and took out the rag doll to take a look.
Strangely enough, the rag doll with half of its face showed an expression of fear.
"The rag doll's expression can change? This altar appears to have some other meaning. " Then Chen Ge placed the rag doll inside. He opened his backpack and shoved the red high heels inside as well. "Everyone has their own specialties. You're very good at curses, so I'll leave this to you. I know you're very powerful. Placing you inside this altar is my blessing for you. I hope that one day, you'll become a Demon God. "
