Vol.3 - Chapter 24 – Hell Tenth Degree Cinema

Yi Song looked at the people in front of him.

They, along with the "manager," were all actors from the Tenth Degree Hell Cinema!

And Yi Song... was Yin Shuitian from the Seventh Degree Hell Cinema!

Yin Shuitian had long ago purchased information about the famous actors from the Tenth Degree Hell Cinema with redemption tickets. The man with smoky makeup was Zhao Kongying, a highly experienced actor from the Tenth Degree Hell Cinema. The woman with bandages covering her face was Ouyang Chu, whose face hidden under the bandages was somewhat terrifying, with only her eyes exposed. And the two-meter-tall strong man was naturally even more famous, with a height comparable to Yao Ming, nicknamed "Iron Giant," named Zhang Haotian!

And the name of the "manager" was even more well-known. He was called Mulan, and his identity... was the right-hand man of "that person"!

Mulan, Zhao Kongying, Ouyang Chu, Zhang Haotian, these four people could be said to be well-known figures in the Tenth Degree Hell Cinema. Zhao Kongying and himself were both spiritual mediums. Ouyang Chu was even more mysterious, as no one knew what kind of face was hidden under the bandages.

The leader, Zhao Kongying, stopped walking and said, "We have a clue."

Then, looking again, Yi Song noticed that Zhang Haotian was holding a middle-aged man who looked to be in his forties. Because Zhang Haotian was so terrifyingly tall, Yin Shuitian almost ignored this middle-aged man.

"He is the night security guard working here. He is still stationed here," Zhao Kongying said coldly. "This is Manager Zhang Taixiang, who is about to acquire this abandoned golf course. Show him the Shuhe novel website you saw that night!"

The middle-aged man was not an actor but an NPC. Seeing Zhang Haotian's height, he was already trembling in fear. Now that he knew the role played by Mulan, he quickly said, "Manager Zhang, it's like this... that night, when I was on patrol, I heard strange noises nearby. Then, I came here..."

Suddenly, the middle-aged man's eyes widened, and then he tightly covered his neck, falling to the ground and convulsing. For a long time, he couldn't speak!

Before Yin Shuitian could say anything, Zhao Kongying stepped forward, and a dagger appeared in his hand. He fiercely swung it towards the empty space in front of the middle-aged man, and then, blood appeared on the dagger, splattering Zhao Kongying's face!

Then, Mulan acted even faster. He touched the white bracelet on his hand and took out a needle, aiming it forward and stabbing it fiercely! This time, when the needle pierced the spot where blood had splattered, his expression changed slightly, and then he retracted his hand.

"He's gone."

The middle-aged security guard was already scared to the point of wetting his pants. Seeing this eerie scene, he didn't dare to speak.

According to the script, he should have already been dead. However, Mulan and Zhao Kongying had joined forces to save him.

After putting away the needle, Yin Shuitian was also shocked. This needle was made from the bones of the dead and could extract the blood of vengeful spirits, allowing one to always know their location and prevent them from escaping. Although spiritual mediums could locate ghosts, using their abilities too frequently would cause them to faint. However, this bone needle could avoid that situation and completely ignore distance. Normally, spiritual mediums could only sense within a range of a few hundred meters, but this bone needle could sense within a range of up to ten kilometers!

This was also the information Yin Shuitian had purchased before. Seeing it today, it lived up to its reputation!

"It doesn't matter." Zhao Kongying handed the knife over, and Mulan took it. Then, he sprinkled the blood from the knife onto the bone needle, showing a satisfied expression. He then spread the bone needle in his palm, and it quickly pointed to a certain location like a compass.

"Let's go!"

Mulan took the lead, and Yin Shuitian and the others immediately followed.

Then, an hour passed. The movie reached its most critical moment.

Although Yin Shuitian triggered his spiritual medium ability once again, he could no longer bear it. Moreover, the cost of redemption tickets had already been quite substantial.

At this moment, everyone fell into the deepest part of the elevator shaft. In the dark depths filled with a putrid smell, terror began to spread. The sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl had already disappeared in the darkness, as a newcomer actor without any cursed items, it was already quite difficult for her to hold on until the final moment of the movie.

In the depths of the darkness, the putrid smell quickly approached. Although they couldn't see, Yin Shuitian, with his instinctive sense as a spiritual medium, quickly sensed it in the elevator shaft. Of course, he didn't rush to take action. At this moment, he was like a hunter waiting for his prey to step into a trap, not easily making a move. Once he made a move, he had to succeed in one strike!

And just at this moment, suddenly, he heard a sound, the sound of cloth being lifted. Then, he realized that it was the sound of Ouyang Chu tearing off the bandages covering her face!

In the next instant, a flash of fire suddenly appeared in the darkness. Then, he saw Mulan holding a needle and stabbing it into the head of a corpse in front of him.

It was the skeletal remains of a woman that had rotted away, and the bone needle easily pierced through the skull. Then, he saw an incredibly terrifying face.

Wasn't that... Ouyang Chu?

She was originally a very beautiful woman. But at this moment, on her left cheek, there was a blue-green decaying face growing! That face kept wriggling, and the decaying flesh continued to spread towards the intact parts. That ghost-like face seemed to be constantly swelling!

This scene was like the witch Sadako, who could infinitely split herself, drawn by the Japanese horror manga artist Junji Ito!

And if you looked closely, you would find that where the decaying flesh spread, smaller decaying faces, completely identical in appearance, would continue to swell and grow!

Was this... the ghost created by "that person" as the legend said?At this moment, Ouyang Chu re-tied the bandage on her face, suppressing the growth of those ghostly faces. Yin Shuitian was shocked by this scene. Who are these people in the Hell Tenth Degree Cinema? Only Cheng Xuesong from the Hell Thirteenth Degree Cinema can be compared to her!

"Is it over?" Ouyang Chu completely covered her face with the bandage and spoke slowly.

"No," Mulan inserted the bone needle into the skull of the corpse, showing a serious expression. "Not yet."

He quickly pulled out the bone needle, a hint of dimness passing over his face, but the dim expression quickly disappeared. Then, after placing the bone needle back, he unexpectedly... took out another cursed item from the deceased.

However, Yin Shuitian was not surprised. He knew that the Hell Tenth Degree Cinema had been buying cursed items from the deceased at a high price. It was not unusual for them to have multiple cursed items.

But when this cursed item was taken out, his expression changed!

However, he quickly concealed this change, not letting anyone see his expression.

In Mulan's palm was a black bundle of hair! And that bundle of hair was tied together with a rubber band. After taking it out, he quickly placed the hair on the skull. Soon, the hair began to grow automatically and spread into the bones!

At this moment, Yin Shuitian somewhat understood.

So that's how it is.

Immediately after, the flame of the lighter went out! Then, Mulan shouted, "Quick! Get down!"

Yin Shuitian felt an extremely strong sense of danger and without hesitation triggered his mediumistic ability. Then, he fainted.

When he woke up, he was already back upstairs.

Mulan looked at him with relief and said, "It's all over."

"Is it over?"

"That ghost can no longer come out of the elevator shaft."

Thinking of the automatically thickening black hair, Yin Shuitian understood some things.

At that moment, Yin Shuitian suddenly sent a trade request to the other party, hoping to buy that bundle of black hair, and the offer was quite high. However, the other party readily refused.

Yin Shuitian didn't know how they managed to seal the ghost in the elevator shaft in the dark depths. However, from Mulan's pale face and his zombie-like expression, he could tell that he had paid a great price.

Even so, he still felt terrified. The Hell Tenth Degree Cinema was much stronger than them in many ways.

And Mulan was just a trusted subordinate of "that person". How did "that person" possess such extraordinary means?

In any case, they must not offend the other party. This point was certain.

That was another Hell Cinema.

The rapidly passing time finally announced the end of this movie.

"The movie is over!"

Everyone pushed open the door and entered. Then, they saw that there were only three people in the screening room.

And everyone's gaze was directed at Yin Shuitian!

"Shuitian!"

Everyone called out the man's name and rushed towards him.

At this moment, Yin Shuitian firmly grasped the cinema seat in front of him, took a deep breath, and muttered, "Terrifying. The people from the Hell Tenth Degree Cinema..."

A man with long hair walked up to Yin Shuitian and asked, "How was it? Meeting Mulan? They say he is a trusted subordinate of 'that person', quite extraordinary, right?"

"He lives up to his reputation." Yin Shuitian gave a high evaluation. "Although he looks as pale as a woman, his methods are truly terrifying. It's hard to imagine how terrifying 'that person' must be."

At this point, everyone fell silent.

"No matter what, we must not offend the Hell Tenth Degree Cinema!" Yin Shuitian became more convinced of this conclusion. "From now on, we must uphold this point with all the new actors. Even if a Hell Tenth Degree actor dies in front of us, we cannot seize the cursed items of the deceased! Even in the face of desperation, we cannot escape before them! We will not protect those who violate this rule!"

As he said this, he closed his eyes slightly and muttered, "Fang Leng, you have more foresight in this regard than I do."
