516 Harsh reality
The flickering silver light in the throne slowly disappeared, and seeing that the door of the space she had opened had been closed, the empress leaned weakly on the throne and sighed with relief.
As the "manager" of this consciousness space, she naturally noticed Zhen's arrival a long time ago, and the reason why she hid it before was just to test the abilities of those two. And now......
"What a great guard, if it were him, he would have saved us, right?"
The Empress looked up feebly at the ornate fresco on the ceiling above the throne, where the one-armed goddess was holding out her remaining right hand and meeting her eyes with a holy smile.
"It's up to you, save that 'princess'." She whispered to herself.
……
Speeding in the pitch-black space tunnel, Lin Chi hugged the girl in his arms tightly, and continued to rely on the powerful thrust behind him to drift with the tide in the dark tunnel.
If the Empress is right, they should now be passing through Jane's "tunnel of consciousness" and into the so-called "real world".
In that world, Jane is supposed to be a schizophrenic, undergoing electroshock therapy, and being forced to take a sedative. However, the current Lin Chi doesn't know what role he is in that space as a player.
- Is his role set to be a psychopath who is being treated with Jane? If that's the case, how did you get into Jane's world of consciousness?
Could it be that the player's premise in this game is not a patient, but something else?
Lin Chi was guessing, and the space in his line of sight began to distort.
In the originally boundless darkness, a point of light appeared, and then began to expand rapidly, encroaching on all sight.
……
Lin Chi sat up abruptly, ripped off several electrodes on his forehead, and looked down at the hospital gown on his body and the metal hospital bed covered with white sheets.
He looked around and found himself in a large circular ward, surrounded by dozens of beds arranged in a circle around the glass column in the center of the room.
Now, most of the hospital beds are empty, except for Lin Chi, there are only four people left on the hospital bed, but the four guys have not woken up yet, they are still lying upright on the hospital bed, like a stiff corpse.
“……”
Lin Chi looked at the other four people on the hospital bed without saying a word, and saw that their heads were also connected to electrodes, and the wires of the electrodes extended from the dirty floor to the glass cylinder in the center of the ward, and were plugged into the wiring board under the cylinder.
"What the hell ......?"
He muttered something and tried to get up, but fell to the ground in one fell swoop.
The muscles that had not been moved for a long time could not exert their strength for a while, and Lin Chi took a lot of effort to stand up, but he heard a burst of applause from the outside of the ward.
The automatic doors opened to both sides, and more than a dozen "angels in white" poured into the room, and gathered around Lin Chi to applaud in unison, a middle-aged man wearing an army standard uniform and a black beret stood in front of Lin Chi through the crowd and stretched out his right hand to him:
"Congratulations, soldier, you've completed your final training!"
"What training?" Lin Chi frowned and stared at the guy in front of him who was suspected to be an officer.
Although he didn't know what the other party was talking about, he had already roughly guessed what was going on in the face of this situation. Now all you need is the "official answer" from the other party.
"Soldier, you forgot now, but you'll remember." A strange smile appeared on the officer's square face: "You, like the other thirty people, are all participants in this 'hallucination breakthrough experiment', and you are the only one who successfully completed the experiment. Congratulations! ”
As he spoke, the officer snapped his fingers at the doctors gathered around, and immediately several white-robed doctors turned around and walked towards the four people who were still lying on the hospital bed, and injected a clear liquid into the necks of the four with syringes.
"Uh......"
The four people who were originally motionless "standing up" suddenly began to spasm, and dark red blood flowed from the corners of their mouths. But after only a few convulsions, they didn't move again, and their bodies completely lost their strength, and they collapsed on the hospital bed.
As the struggle of the four people stopped, four lines of death prompts appeared in Lin Chi's sight:
The player "Blood Demon" has died.
Player "You're Dead" is dead.
The player "AIRCIN" is dead.
Player "Sick to High Yellow" has died.
“……”
Lin Chi stared silently at the death notice of the kill, and then saw that the doctor and nurse began to cover the four corpses that had just died with white cloths, and then a few lines of golden text appeared in sight:
You unlocked the hidden scene: the X-03 Military Hospital.
You have completed the Hidden Ending: The Experiment Awakens.
Congratulations on winning this mini-deathmatch!
The player "Against the Current" has reached the winning condition - the overlord and becomes the winner of the game!
You have earned the achievement "Experiment with a guinea pig." ”
- What the hell is this?
Lin Chi was secretly complaining in his heart, the officer's thick palm had already held his skinny hand, and then, the very enthusiastic officer, looked at him without blinking, and his voice was full of approval:
"In order to participate in the experiment, part of your memory has been temporarily blocked, come with me and we will restore your memory."
As he spoke, the officer turned around and walked towards the door of the ward, and the two nurses who came up on both sides of the side, one on the left and the other on the right, supported Lin Chi's weak arms, almost dragging him to keep up with the officer's pace.
While being dragged away, Lin Chi quickly digested the information he had just gotten:
His current identity is a soldier, and he is participating in a so-called "hallucination breakthrough experiment", and the memories before participating in the experiment should have been blocked.
- That is, is it not some kind of treatment, but a military experiment?
Remembering the battle that took place in Jane's hallucinatory world, he looked at the unmanned hospital beds on either side. Lin Chi could see that the players who were killed in the illusion world should have been directly judged as failures, and then "disposed of" by these terrifying doctors and nurses.
This cruel experiment only needs one winner, and the other eliminated losers can only end up being killed!
Although he has won the game, and now he can get other rewards even if he quits, Lin Chi did not directly quit the game, after all, he still has more important things to complete:
- Where is Jen now?
According to this premise, Jane, who is a schizophrenic, should be used as the "consciousness provider" of this experiment, providing a fantasy space for the players participating in the experiment, that is, the soldiers whose memories are blocked.
If that's the case, now after the experiment is over, the girl who is the test subject will likely be "disposed of" by the doctors and nurses, just like the four players just now. If that's the case, it's dangerous!
With the support of the nurse, Lin Chi, who entered the circular corridor next to the ward, suddenly became worse when he thought of this.
He knew that now, the chances of rescuing Jane were getting lower and lower.
If you still want to recruit that boss-level NPC, you must immediately find a way to restore your physical function, and then "fight quickly".
