182: Chapter 182 Exposing the Traitor

"Meng Zhou!" The two of them said the name simultaneously.

"At the time, the wax figure of Meng Zhou that we saw in the Wax Museum was suspended in the air, while everyone else's wax figures remained in their original positions."

"And after the Mother Ghost entered the church, Meng Zhou's wax figure disappeared!" Lu Chengfeng voiced his opinion.

"That's right, because that was Meng Zhou himself. He pretended to be a wax figure and hung himself in the air. Remember that modeling clay we used?"

"The essence of this prop, the wax figure modeling clay, is that it encases us inside a wax sculpture."

"There is enough space inside to keep breathing, and the rope was actually looped around the outer wax shell."

"Furthermore, the reward of this wax figure modeling clay doesn't require the person to be present; as long as someone clears the dungeon, it can be obtained."

"So... when we rushed over there and then walked out, about 5 minutes had passed."

"Isn't that too risky? If we had stayed there too long, wouldn't he have canceled the wax figure state?" Lu Chengfeng questioned.

"When someone sees their companion killed, can they bear to just stay there? He is exploiting our psychology."

"And... as the traitor, his reward might be different from what we obtained; it could be a permanent transformation."

"After we left, he knew for sure that we wouldn't want to return to the church because there were no clues worth looking for inside."

"He must have been hiding in the shadows, listening to our analysis. At the time, we thought there definitely wasn't a traitor, and he exploited our psychology again."

"He then canceled the wax figure state, jumped down from the rope, and then, after we left the Dormitory, broke my door lock, waiting to kill me at night."

"On the first night, he still used psychology to create the appearance of an innocent victim, just so we would ignore his existence from the very beginning, thinking he had been a dead person all along."

"When The Artist appeared, he was standing in the distance. When we saw the blade pierce through his body, he was facing the moonlight, and the scene we saw was dim."

"I think... the one The Artist stabbed must have been a wax figure, someone else's wax figure body."

"The Artist can change the appearance of wax figures; creating a fake Meng Zhou would be effortless."

"Everything was agreed upon by the two of them, along with that Little Brother Ghost."

"Combining this with what Meng Zhou did before—secretly making our team lose, then actively helping me—the whole purpose was actually to kill me."

"Time is limited. I suspect this dungeon only has 2 days left. He must have thought the same, so when he saw us successfully kill the ghost, he started to get anxious."

"He had to kill someone, but because Jiang Xinyi gave the door lock to me, he had no choice but to kill Jiang Xinyi, because there wasn't enough time left."

"The door locks of those who died were also all turned into wax figures; this must also be a prop he obtained."

Lu Chengfeng took a deep breath. "There are some speculative elements, but after all, this is a Thriller Game; it has already surpassed normal cases."

"But looking at the people who died, it's easy to infer."

"When the others died, they were all on the ground, and we all touched the corpses—or rather, I touched the corpses."

"But only Meng Zhou's corpse was located in the air, because he is a living person and couldn't let us touch him." Lu Chengfeng offered his opinion.

"Exactly! If we were to touch him, he might not be able to help feeling terrified, afraid that he would reveal his flaws."

"But to be able to do something like that, he still needed an accomplice."

"In the church, a person has no way to hang themselves in the air!"

Lu Chengfeng heard this, his pupils constricted slightly, and he said: "You mean... another person who can move during the day?"

"Remember there was another person? There is someone else here, the one we saw at the very beginning."

"The Priest?" Lu Chengfeng rubbed his temples.

"So... the Priest who we all thought had disappeared is the accomplice."

"Perhaps from the beginning, the Priest and Meng Zhou had already discussed it, or one could say it was Meng Zhou's suggestion to the Priest to hide."

The number of people to deal with went from one to two, and there was also the existence of the Little Brother Ghost.

It caused the psychological advantage they originally held to collapse once again.

Lu Chengfeng swallowed hard and asked: "How did Meng Zhou do it? How did he kill Jiang Xinyi!"

Chen Mo also looked troubled.

If it were a prop or a costume, it would be impossible to commit a murder without leaving traces.

Night will come again tonight, and the Dorm Manager is now useless, with almost no combat capability.

For a player to enter the Dormitory, one could say it would be effortless.

That Priest possesses a strange ability; by opening the Bible, he can make people fall into a state of unconsciousness.

He can also enter the karst cave.

If these two cooperate and make Chen Mo and the others all fall unconscious, then someone will die in the Dormitory tonight!

They wouldn't even know how they died.

What's even more terrifying is... after the formation of 108 wax figures is activated, what will Chen Mo and the others encounter?

Chen Mo felt a bit irritable, lit a cigarette, and looked up at the sky.

He walked through the small town with his hands in his pockets.

[Supreme Fungus: So... the traitor position was arranged by the old six; he really went to great lengths to increase the difficulty of clearing the dungeon.]

[Blooming Chrysanthemum: Indeed, if it weren't for Many Children Many Blessings, even if a few of us entered this dungeon, we would probably be wiped out.]

[Break Up With Math: His line of thinking is actually quite good; perhaps... the Human Wax Museum could be upgraded and thrown into a higher-dimensional dungeon.]

[I Am Not Mentally Ill: No wonder we couldn't see the scene in the Dormitory at night; it turns out it was because of the shady operations pulled by that old six.]

[Blooming Chrysanthemum: The rule for killing the ghost before was already very difficult for players, and now with an added traitor, it's truly difficult on top of difficult.]

[Helping Grandma Run Red Light: The police uniform guy and Many Children Many Blessings didn't tell the others about the analysis. This is because they are afraid the others won't be able to accept the fact and are afraid their mental states will collapse.]

[Cherry Maruko Calf: It's definitely not using props to kill. If it were a prop, I would be able to sense it.]

[Cherry Maruko Calf: Many Children Many Blessings, come on, come on! If you die, you won't be able to become an Administrator, and I won't be able to make Xiao Wanzi for you to eat!]

[Sunny Turns Cloudy: Is there a blanket? I... I... I... I don't know why, but I feel so scared...]

[I Am Not Mentally Ill: What are you scared of?]

[Sunny Turns Cloudy: I've experienced something similar before. I got up to go to the bathroom at night, damn it, just as I took off my pants, I saw someone walking past the hallway.]

[Sunny Turns Cloudy: It was a thief. I watched him steal with my own eyes. His technique was exquisite, without making a single sound. I just squatted on the toilet, not daring to even breathe loudly.]

[Sunny Turns Cloudy: And... I don't know what he used to plug my dog's mouth, but my dog didn't struggle much before it died.]

[Sunny Turns Cloudy: The police came to investigate and just said... there wasn't any air in my dog's lungs!]
